Chapter 1270: 493: Seven Souls Transform into Buddha! The Promise of Celestial Change (Seeking Monthly Pass)_2

“Putuo Buddha Monarch.”

Chen Dengming’s eyes reflected the ethereal image of the Hall of Human Heart at this moment, speaking with deep significance, “Regardless of your circumstances or those of the Buddha in The World, I, as your junior, must now remind you.

You, I, we all living and cultivating in the Four Seas and Four Realms, no longer have much time or a way out.

If the demon cannot be subdued, then it is time to resort to thunderous measures, a wrathful gaze, and the moment to eradicate the demon!”

The Putuo Buddha Monarch slightly furrowed his brow, sighing lightly, “Chen Benefactor, I have long heard of your modesty, your detachment, and your open-mindedness like a valley. Unexpectedly, you are so fixated on eradicating demons, this title of senior, I am afraid, I do not deserve.”

“You do deserve it!”

...

Chen Dengming suddenly let out a low shout, his eyes piercing, taking a step forward and saying, “At this moment, senior, how much longer will you continue to disguise yourself?

The Buddha teaches compassion for the world, saving a single life is more meritorious than building a seven-story pagoda, so how many pagodas is saving all the people of the world worth?

Or is it that, senior, you have long been afflicted with demonic thoughts, always deluded by demon thoughts, and have no intention to save the people?”

The voice that Chen Dengming suddenly raised was like thunder, like the striking of a great bell, heavily hammering into the depths of Putuo Buddha Monarch’s spirit, causing his always calm face to slightly change colors, as he said in shock.

“You have seen through this wretched skin of mine.”

As soon as these words came out, both Qu Shenzong and Dongfang Huayuan were taken aback.

Chen Dengming’s eyes shone cold with a deep silver glow, calmly saying, “I have often peered into the secrets of fate, of which are not to be disclosed, but today, facing you, the party involved, some can be revealed.

I have discovered that a long time ago, after the soul of the Ghost Immortal was shattered, he encountered the Buddha in The World.

The Buddha in The World tried to transform him but was instead swallowed by the soul of the Ghost Immortal. Thereafter, the Buddha in The World chanted scriptures inside the belly of the Ghost Immortal’s soul daily, attempting to transform him, the final outcome, however, I do not know…

But considering the Buddha in The World is presently unharmed, even swallowing the Buddha Trick into his belly, he must have escaped safely back then…”

Chen Dengming paused in his speech, his eyes emitting a strange glow as he stared intently at the Putuo Buddha Monarch and continued, “But one thing has always puzzled me.

How exactly did the Buddha in The World escape from the belly of the Ghost Immortal’s soul?

Fortunately, over these years, I have frequently dealt with Ghost Cultivators, witnessed the striking differences between the three souls of a Ghost Cultivator, and have seen the duplicity and cunning inherent in their minds.

Thus I speculated that the Ghost Immortal who swallowed the Buddha in The World, being in a phase of instability in his three souls and seven spirits, might have given the Buddha an opportunity to escape due to the conflict and deceit among them…”

The Putuo Buddha Monarch sighed, “Benefactor Chen indeed understands the Ghost Cultivators deeply, and as a monk, I do not lie; your speculation is correct. Back then, indeed the three souls of the Ghost Immortal were at odds, which provided the chance to escape. But this still does not explain how you uncovered this wretched skin of mine.”

“Discovering you was not difficult…”

Chen Dengming’s pupils, amidst the silver glow, manifested the phantom image of the Hall of Human Heart, and within the gates of the hall, a Heartfire emerged.

As soon as this Heartfire appeared, the flame also revealed the face of the Putuo Buddha Monarch, but the face rippled and distorted, showing another face starkly different from the original.

That face was filled with eeriness, shifting between joy and anger, sorrow and fury, leaving one with a sense of déjà vu.

“The Outer Domain Devil Lord?”

Upon seeing the face in the heartfire in Chen Dengming’s eyes, Qu Shenzong couldn’t help but exclaim.

“No, that’s not right, it’s the Buddha Trick!” Dongfang Huayuan, who had encountered the Buddha Trick many times, immediately objected.

Chen Dengming, however, said, “It should be said that he is both the Outer Domain Devil Lord and the Buddha Trick, as well as the Ghost Emperor, and also an ancient Ghost Immortal… Furthermore, he is the Buddha in The World!”

Upon hearing this, Qu Shenzong and Dongfang Huayuan exchanged glances, not understanding the riddle that Chen Dengming had posed, and again turned their sharp gazes towards the Putuo Buddha Monarch.

“Monk, who exactly are you?”

“A boundless sea of suffering!”

The Putuo Buddha Monarch’s expression was sorrowful, a semblance of laughing and crying, “The heart of humanity within the Human Immortal Dao truly is unpredictable, exquisitely indescribable, one can easily see through this wretched skin using this hall, indeed.

If I met Benefactor Chen earlier, I’m afraid you would have seen through me a long time ago.”

Chen Dengming shook his head, “Senior flatters me too much, if I had met you earlier, my heart’s power at that time would have been insufficient to see through your guise.”

After all, he was now a Cultivator who had completed his Divine Transformation, his cultivation even surpassing that of the current Putuo Buddha Monarch, but if one considered his true self, the other party still a senior.

At this moment, the Putuo Buddha Monarch no longer concealed the truth and languidly disclosed the past secrets, “Back then, the Buddha sought to convert the Ghost Immortal but was swallowed by him in one gulp.

Inside the belly, the Buddha chanted scriptures daily and night after night attempted to influence the Ghost Immortal. Eventually, he managed to sway the good spirit of the Ghost Immortal, but this also caused a divergence among his three souls. The benevolent leader soul, Fetus Light, expunged the Buddha from its body.

Afterward, the three souls due to their divergence scattered.

The Dark Spirit embodying the Ghost Immortal’s malicious thoughts has transformed into Mo Luo, flagrant and easily roused to anger and bloodlust.

Shuangling, along with Fetus Light, turned into the Buddha Trick with indecisive, skeptical, and sly misgivings.

And the other seven spirits, carrying good intentions, remained within the Buddha’s body…”

Chen Dengming gazed intently at the Putuo Buddha Monarch and said, “So now, the Buddha in The World has integrated the benevolent Fetus Light soul of the Ghost Immortal, becoming one entity.

And you, the Putuo Buddha Monarch, are you the transformation resulting from the remaining seven spirits?”

As soon as he spoke, Qu Shenzong and Dongfang Huayuan were shocked.

The Putuo Buddha Monarch chanted a low Buddhist mantra, his aura of Buddha Respect intensifying and shining like a golden halo, “Benefactor Chen has keen insight; indeed, the Buddha Respect Relic has already fused with the benevolent Fetus Light soul of the Ghost Immortal.

As for me, I am but the past Buddha who split out a Great Stability Relic, carrying the transformation of the Ghost Immortal’s seven spirits!”
