Chapter 994: Worthy of the Buddha Lord
"Ye Chen?"
Upon hearing the familiar voice, the Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor was both surprised and delighted.
Unexpectedly, the long-missing Buddha Lord Ye Chen had suddenly appeared at such a critical moment.
"That guy?" Inside the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect, the middle-aged monk who had attended the Grand Assembly of All Buddhas at the Jade Buddha Cave, shuddered as soon as he heard Ye Yun’s voice.
He quickly looked towards a certain place.
In the void, two figures became clear from their previous blur.
Among them, a young man in white was very familiar. This person was none other than the dao companion of the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman and the one Yinfuti had passed down in the Holy Buddha Sect.
"Hmph! It’s like searching high and low only to find what you’re looking for so effortlessly!"
The middle-aged monk forced a grim face, stepped out, and instantly appeared beside the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman.
He quickly reached out and placed his hand atop the head of the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman.
Meanwhile, the delicate body of the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman was being held by another Divine King Realm expert.
It can be said.
The Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman was being simultaneously coerced by two God King experts.
If she makes any move, they could immediately strike with a thunderous blow against her.
Such close proximity means that even if a Divine Emperor Realm Powerhouse descends, there would be no time to offer assistance.
"Buddha Lord, you finally arrived!"
The Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor returned to Ye Yun’s side and whispered.
"Hmm!"
Ye Yun nodded.
He looked down at the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect, with an indifferent expression, saying, "They have quite the guts to capture Luo Ye!"
"Indeed, Buddha Lord, they are using Luo Ye as a hostage to coerce the Holy Buddha Sect and you..."
The Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor smiled bitterly in despair.
"Rest assured, now that I am here, I won’t let them succeed!"
Ye Yun calmly replied.
The Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor breathed a sigh, and his gaze moved to the purple-robed youth beside Ye Yun.
The young man, with delicate features, gave him a sense of familiarity.
He attempted to sense the youth’s aura, but detected no cultivation base, as if the other had intentionally concealed it.
On the other side.
When Ye Yun appeared without the Dragon Tree Buddha, many God King experts of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect had faces turned ugly, sensing an ominous premonition in their hearts.
Could it be that Dragon Tree Buddha had met his demise?
At this moment, a majestic red-robed monk emerged from the crowd of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect.
Other God King experts stepped back half a step.
He was none other than the current Sect Master of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect—Red Cloud Buddha Ancestor.
Red Cloud Buddha Ancestor glanced at the purple-robed youth and found him unfamiliar, then frowned and asked, "Ye Chen, what have you done to the Dragon Tree Buddha?"
"Nothing much!"
Ye Yun replied with a faint smile, his gaze landing on the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman.
The Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman’s mouth was sealed, rendering her speechless, as she could only show her anxious eyes, gesturing repeatedly towards Ye Yun.
"This person is wearing the robe of the Dragon Tree Buddha; where exactly have you taken the Dragon Tree Buddha?"
Glaring at the purple-robed youth, Red Cloud Buddha Ancestor detected something and shouted angrily.
"Hand over the Dragon Tree Buddha immediately, or do not blame us for being impolite!"
"Hand him over quickly!"
A God King expert followed suit and shouted harshly.
The Dragon Tree Buddha had returned willingly, with former flesh fused, and had weak cultivation after revival.
His individual strength could not be compared with the imposing forces of the entire Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect.
However.
In the hearts of these God King experts, the status of the Dragon Tree Buddha was akin to a great figure who could rival the founding ancestor.
If someone killed the Dragon Tree Buddha, it meant forming an eternal vendetta with the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect.
For this reason, these experts of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect were extremely agitated, teetering on the edge of losing control.
Ye Yun was well aware of this.
"Dragon Tree, go down and make them submit!"
Ye Yun instructed softly.
"Understood, Buddha Lord!"
Dragon Tree responded, his body gently descending.
"Everyone, be cautious!"
Red Cloud Buddha Ancestor’s face turned cold as he immediately warned.
This purple-robed youth exuded a mysterious aura that was unfathomable.
"Sect Master, just now Ye Chen called him Dragon Tree, and his appearance..."
The middle-aged monk blinked repeatedly and stammered.
"Dragon Tree?"
Red Cloud Buddha Ancestor was stunned, seeming to realize something at that moment.
A light bulb went off in his head, Red Cloud Buddha Ancestor exclaimed in shock, "Could this guy really be... the Buddha Flame Root’s true form?"
"Indeed, Sect Master, he is the true form of the Buddha Flame Root; I saw him in this form inside the Jade Buddha Cave Sky!"
The middle-aged monk cried loudly.
Upon hearing these words, not only Red Cloud Buddha Ancestor but also other God King experts fell silent.
Whoosh!
Dragon Tree lightly touched, and the Mountain Protection Array instantly opened up a hole, through which he floated down.
Like a fallen leaf, he landed before the numerous experts of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect.
"The Dragon Tree Buddha and I have become one; I am the new Dragon Tree!"
Dragon Tree calmly stated as he gazed at them.
At that moment.
The aura from his body exploded without warning.
The aura of a Half-Step God Emperor Realm, unimaginably powerful.
This aura was like a massive mountain, pressing down on all the experts of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect, leaving them breathless.
"Become one?"
The mind of Red Cloud Buddha Ancestor was somewhat muddled, struggling to absorb this astounding news.
After the sect disciples returned from the Jade Buddha Cave Sky, they reported everything that had happened inside.
Red Cloud Buddha Ancestor was also aware that the body of the Dragon Tree Buddha was the Formless Tree.
The roots of the Formless Tree were the true form of the Buddha Flame Root, as well as the Yinfuti passed down through the Jade Buddha Sect for millions of years.
The relationships were complex.
Back then, in the Jade Buddha Cave Sky, many witnessed with their own eyes the merging of the Dragon Tree Buddha and Buddha Flame Root.
At that time, the Dragon Tree Buddha took the dominant position.
How come, after some days, the Dragon Tree Buddha had fused with the Buddha Flame Root?
After the fusion, the Dragon Tree Buddha didn’t take the dominant position, which was truly hard to accept.
Anger surged in his heart.
Red Cloud Buddha Ancestor, bolstering his courage, questioned, "Since you two are one, why fuse with the Dragon Tree Buddha?"
"What’s so difficult to understand? The Buddhist law of the Dragon Tree Buddha doesn’t match mine, hence he willingly retreated, allowing himself to be merged by me."
Dragon Tree replied calmly.
In the void, witnessing this scene, Ye Yun secretly nodded.
This guy Dragon Tree was indeed clever, his lies were seamless, requiring no teaching.
Very good.
Such explanations were capable of silencing the persistent voices of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect.
"The Buddhist law of the Dragon Tree Buddha doesn’t match yours, how could that be possible?"
Red Cloud Buddha Ancestor murmured, his face showing immense shock.
Buzz!
Dragon Tree’s body trembled, releasing purple Buddha light.
The purple Buddha light surged like waves, spreading in all directions.
All God King experts touched by the purple Buddha light had their expressions changed, showing an air of admiration in their eyes.
"Greetings, Dragon Tree Buddha!"
The first to kneel was the middle-aged red-robed monk who had participated in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Dynasty Assembly.
As he knelt, numerous God King experts followed suit and knelt.
"Greetings, Dragon Tree Buddha!"
Red Cloud Buddha Ancestor sighed and finally knelt at Dragon Tree’s feet.
He understood that the new Dragon Tree Buddha was extremely powerful, both in Buddhist law and realm, surpassing the former Dragon Tree Buddha.
The Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect needed such a Half-Step God Emperor Realm expert.
One to preside over the sect, enhancing its strength.
Another to heed the teachings of the new Dragon Tree Buddha and continue cultivating the supreme Buddhist Path.
"As expected of the Buddha Lord, solved the former Dragon Tree Buddha in one go!"
Standing beside Ye Yun, the Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor lifted his lips, revealing a subtle and indescribable expression of pride.
