Upon this thought, Wang Junze instantly ceased to suppress the Buddha Nature from the Nirvana Sutra. Instead, he went with the flow and actively began to cultivate.
Within moments, a faint Buddha Light began to emanate from Wang Junze's body.
The effect of the Nirvana Sutra was extremely domineering; it was difficult to restrain even when suppressed. Now, once he actively cultivated, the speed instantly became swift, to the point where Wang Junze seemed to radiate the brilliance of Buddha Nature entirely. To the unknowing, he might be mistaken for a member of the Buddhist Sect.
This aura was simply too obvious.
At the same time, Monk Benyin, who had just returned to Xuankong Temple, abruptly opened his eyes.
"Amitabha Buddha!"
"Brother Benyin, has there been a change with Wang Junze?"
Looking at Monk Benyin, the abbot of Xuankong Temple slightly raised his head and asked softly.
"Indeed!"
Nodding, Monk Benyin's face revealed a somewhat complex expression, and he answered softly, "Previously, this humble monk sensed that he was trying everything to eliminate Buddha Nature, and that karma was continually weakening. But just now, the karma suddenly intensified. If my guess is correct, he should have started to actively cultivate the Nirvana Sutra."
"So soon?"
Slightly surprised, the abbot of Xuankong Temple revealed a trace of delight in his eyes and couldn't help but ask, "Wasn't it said that this child's mind was extremely resolute? Why did he give up so quickly?"
"This humble monk does not know!"
Shaking his head, Monk Benyin replied softly, "However, the karma between him and me is deepening, and that's undeniable. Let's wait and see... If he continues to cultivate the Nirvana Sutra, this humble monk will naturally be able to perceive it."
"The effect of the Nirvana Sutra is extremely domineering. Even if he has a strong practitioner from the Divine Domain behind him, it may not be able to sever it!"
After a brief pause, the monk nearby chimed in, "They all say this child is decisive—if he realizes this point, he understands his situation. Rather than wasting time and energy in trying to erase Buddha Nature, why not actively cultivate, form an alliance with our temple, and later seek cultivation methods from us."
With a slight nod, obviously, these words were agreed upon by the others.
Back when Wang Junze was in the Capital City, whether when he slew Prince Yu or stormed into the Imperial Palace, falling into the Demon Path, his actions were extremely decisive. It is indeed not surprising if he has such ideas.
After all, there really is no enmity between Xuankong Temple and Wang Junze; joining forces with Xuankong Temple to confront the Court is also a viable option.
However, contrary to others, Monk Benyin did not share such optimism; on the contrary, deep inside, he felt increasingly anxious.
The others at Xuankong Temple hadn't interacted directly with Wang Junze, but he was very familiar with Wang Junze's personality. To be easily manipulated like this seemed too strange.
Yet, the karma between him and Wang Junze is deepening, and he can indeed perceive the increasingly intense Buddha Nature within Wang Junze; this is an undeniable fact, leaving him struggling to make a judgment.
...
Buzz!
A sword hum suddenly sounded; several hours had passed, the Buddha Light on Wang Junze's body grew increasingly intense, and the accumulated Buddha Nature within him became increasingly evident. At this moment, Wang Junze abruptly activated the Heart Method of Chess Swordsmanship, suddenly unleashing the Sword Domain!
In an instant, black and white appeared above, transforming into a chessboard, as various Sword Intent burst forth simultaneously!
At the same time, in his sea of consciousness, Wang Junze's Sword Soul suddenly moved, slashing out with a sword to himself!
In that instant, the entire power of the Sword Domain was mobilized, the Heart Method of Chess Swordsmanship was pushed to the extreme, and the Buddha Nature within, was instantly severed by this sword!
However, unlike before, Wang Junze did not directly eliminate this Buddha Nature; instead, he used the power of the sword to suppress the Buddha Nature. At the moment of severing the connection, he transformed this Buddha Nature into Sword Intent!
The next moment, all the Buddha Light within frantically surged into this sword, instantly condensing the sword into shape!
Transform Buddha Nature into a sword!
The Nirvana Sutra could not be obliterated, yet it is also one of the pinnacle Buddhist Cultivation Techniques. Using this as a foundation, Wang Junze easily used the Buddhist Path as a basis to comprehend this sword. Then, borrowing the power of the Sword Domain to suppress, he forcibly transformed this Buddha Nature within him into a sword!
The Buddha Light transformed into a sword, exuding a faint Buddha Light, seeming to radiate an intense sense of compassion.
"It's done!"
With a hint of excitement in his eyes, Wang Junze suddenly rose, carefully observing the Buddha Light sword before him, joy evident between his brows.
Since the Nirvana Sutra cannot be obliterated, there's no need to sever it; directly transforming this Buddha Nature into Sword Dao naturally allows suppression with the Sword Domain, even becoming a means of attack.
Thus, Wang Junze simply does not need to suppress the Nirvana Sutra anymore; instead, he can actively cultivate, just continue injecting the cultivated strength into this sword.
This is the terror of Chess Swordsmanship!
Is the Nirvana Sutra domineering?!
Is anything more domineering than Chess Swordsmanship?!
Ye Piaoling, the esteemed mentor, created the Sword Dao; it truly stands unrivaled. Even the Nirvana Sutra, such a deviant Cultivation Technique, is nothing but a joke before Chess Swordsmanship.
With a slight thought, the Sword Intent, transformed by Buddha Light, suddenly merged into the Sword Domain.
As the Sword Domain dispersed, this Sword Intent also scattered with it.
As long as Wang Junze doesn't enact this Sword Intent, Buddha Nature will not be sensed, but once enacted, this Buddha Nature will erupt, identical to those in the Buddhist Sect.
Thus, regardless of facing others or Xuankong Temple, Wang Junze can perfectly conceal it.
Xuankong Temple intends to use such means to deceive him, yet unknowingly aids his cultivation.
With a sneer, a hint of killing intent arose in Wang Junze's eyes.
Previously, due to Monk Benyin, Wang Junze had quite a favorable opinion towards Xuankong Temple and the Buddhist Sect. But now, any goodwill had long vanished, replaced by more disdain.
They speak ill of the Demon Path, yet, in Wang Junze's view, such tactics by Xuankong Temple are more detestable than the Demon Path.
However, now is not the time to turn against Xuankong Temple. Stabilizing them temporarily is the best outcome. This account will be settled later when facing Xuankong Temple.
Looking up slightly, the sky was gradually turning pale.
A trace of dawn gently descended, falling upon Wang Junze, appearing especially sacred.
Wang Junze did not rush outside; instead, using this opportunity, he secluded himself for several days, to further confuse others.
With a slight closing of his eyes, Wang Junze sat down cross-legged again, continuing his cultivation.
Having resolved the issue with the Nirvana Sutra, it's now time to properly cultivate and consolidate his cultivation. Regardless, his current cultivation is still too low. Only by truly entering the Saint Realm soon can he secure a place in this world.
