Chapter 596: Consumed By The Devil
Thousand Island Pond was the third branch of Beastmaster Camp, also one of the strongest.
It was a gigantic pond with numerous islands. Calling it an ocean was more accurate; one wouldn’t be able to see the other shore.
A pond of this size was very rare even across the massive Heaven’s Equal Mountain Range.
Of course, it didn’t have one thousand islands either, only 84 islands and 356 reefs.
The largest island was named Stupa. It had a seven-floor pagoda - the training place for the Buddhist Supreme.
Inside the pagoda, a sixteen-year-old girl wearing a white Buddhist dress and a jade-bead necklace said: “Greetings, Buddhist Supreme, The Qian Clan of Myriad Mines is gifting spirit stones and treasures, hoping that you will accept them.”
A lotus was floating in the air; the leaves were verdant with spirit spring water flowing. Three white lotuses were in full bloom with a woman sitting on top of one of them. No one could see her appearance, only her white dress and black hair. She was reading a scripture, in search of enlightenment.
This was the supreme of Thousand Island Pond - Wu Qinghua.
She was one of the two most gifted women in the sect and nearly became the camp master. However, she was in the middle of an important cultivation session with the Golden Silkworm Scripture as the previous master was passing away, so Tan Qingsu inherited the role.
She has always been unsatisfied with Qingsu and felt that she was too soft and virtuous - always promoting isolation. This limited the development of Beastmaster Camp and the proliferation of Buddhism. If this continued, the camp’s influence would continue to weaken.
She believed that there was no need to hide or lay low. They should be entering the world to spread Buddhism, recruit more disciples, and create more institutions in the secular world. This would be preparations in order to herald the next golden age of Buddhism.
The two didn’t share the same ideologies so their relationship deteriorated. Because of this, she castrated Rhino after it accidentally came here.
