Chapter 106.2: The Origin of the Myriad Phenomena Gate
“Leave that aside for now.” Qi Yuan raised a hand, turning toward Bai Ze and Shang Yanran. “What have you learned about the Myriad Phenomena Gate?”
These twenty-seven people, along with those who later followed Qi Yuan, would occasionally receive his guidance. Qi Yuan didn’t mind teaching them about the Human-Demon Path, or explaining the Demon Binding Art.
Each time he instructed them, they would gain profound insight, and their respect for him only grew deeper. Of course, Qi Yuan’s generosity wasn’t entirely selfless. He often tasked them with gathering useful information.

The white fox, Shang Yanran, stepped forward. “Blood Master, the origin of the Myriad Phenomena Gate seems to be tied to the ancient gods.”
Qi Yuan’s interest was piqued. “Oh? Tell me more.”
Shang Yanran explained, “According to legend, in ancient times, there was a Great Demon in the Flowing Wind World, known as the Buddha.”
Qi Yuan was surprised. “Buddha?”
That was not a name one used lightly.
“According to the records, the Buddha was a celestial god who descended to the mortal zone for tempering. He could only return to the divine realm once he overcame all the tribulations of the mortal zone. However, during his journey to Rakshasa City, he met a woman who changed his fate. The moment he laid his gaze upon her, his heart was moved by mortal desire. He regarded her as his soulmate. That woman turned out to be a great demonic leader’s daughter and was hunted by the righteous sects. The Buddha intervened and saved her, and from that moment, the two became bound by fate. They fell hopelessly in love.”
