Chapter 1834: Chapter 1875: Call Me Yansheng Buddha

He wore an expectant look, hoping the items were still there.

He immediately swept his consciousness over it, only to see emptiness.

No, there was one thing.

It was a voice recording Jade Scroll, triggered as the Asura Saint Son’s consciousness delved into it.

"Thank you for keeping these treasures of the Buddha for me. No need for thanks between brothers."

"Next time we meet, I’ll treat you to a good meal!"

"See you again, fate willing."

Buzz buzz buzz—

The Asura Saint Son’s hand trembled, pinching the Yang Fish until it buzzed continuously.

Finally, with a snap, it was crushed into pieces.

The Asura Saint Son trembled all over, his eyes bulging, bloodshot threads covering his eyeballs, making his sinister face even more ferocious.

"Jiang Fan!!!"

The Asura Saint Son roared at the sky, "You bastard... puh..."

Overwhelmed by rage and already injured by the Buddha Lord, he couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

Then his vision went black, and he collapsed onto the asteroid.

A hero, fainted from sheer anger.

Hell Realm, Buddha Domain.

Jiang Fan nonchalantly tucked the Yin Fish into his bosom, preparing to sneak away, saying, "My esteemed seniors, the Buddha Domain has suffered severe casualties, and you are busy with affairs. I won’t disturb you any further."

"Farewell."

The Buddha Lord glanced at the Boundary Master’s corpse, surveying briefly between its legs, in his palm, and over its forehead.

He couldn’t help but recite a Buddhist chant: "Sin, sin, we have failed to protect our teachings, allowing the Buddha Holy Land to be defiled."

The other Buddha Venerates flared up:

"The Asura Saint Son is a sinner of Buddhism!"

"He will descend to Avici Hell, never to reincarnate!"

...

Feeling guilty, Jiang Fan condemned, "Exactly! The Asura Saint Son is despicable and shameless, an enemy of both realms!"

"If I meet him again, I will flay him, strip his flesh, tear his bones, and avenge the Buddha!"

Huh?

Several Buddha Venerates looked over, surprised.

Why was this Central Earth Person more outraged than they were?

Yue Mingzhu also snorted, "That hateful Asura Saint Son, stealing so many treasures, may he be cut off from offspring and—hmm hmm..."

Her small mouth was promptly covered by Jiang Fan.

Clearing his throat, Jiang Fan said, "Girls shouldn’t use foul language."

He cupped his hands towards the Buddha Lord again, saying, "I, the younger generation, will take my leave now."

The Buddha Lord nodded slightly, raising his palm, and the Yin Fish reappeared in it.

"Uncle Master Jiang came empty-handed, and perhaps you will leave without a cloud in the sky either."

What the...!

Jiang Fan was speechless, yet the Buddha Lord still sensed it.

Not surprising though.

He hadn’t had time to cleanse the Buddha’s aura from these items, so with the Buddha Venerates’ cultivation, detecting them wasn’t difficult.

He cleared his throat, awkwardly saying, "Don’t misunderstand, Buddha Lord."

"The Asura Saint Son plundered the Buddha’s possessions, and I had no choice but to salvage them protectively."

The Buddha Lord turned towards him, clasped his hands, and said, "Thank you, Master Jiang."

"West Spirit Mountain temporarily closes its doors. Master Jiang, you may go..."

Suddenly, the Buddha Lord’s eyebrows twitched, and he hastily clasped his hands, lowering his head.

A moment later, his aged body trembled slightly, looking at Jiang Fan with surprise.

"What’s wrong? I don’t have any of your Buddha Domain’s items on me!"

Jiang Fan quickly shielded his Heavenly Thunder Stone.

He still had some items from Buddhism, but they were from Central Earth’s Buddhism, unrelated to the Hell Realm Buddha Domain.

Yet, to Jiang Fan’s surprise.

The Buddha Lord returned the Yin Fish: "Return to the rightful owner."

Ah?

Jiang Fan was stunned, and after regaining his senses, he grasped it and asked in surprise, "Buddha Lord, why is this?"

With a solemn expression, the Buddha Lord said, "It is the Buddha’s decree; the things here are all destined with you, take them as you will."

The joy faded from Jiang Fan’s face, and he became extremely cautious.

He feared the words from Buddhism the most.

Destined!

If those words came from the Buddha himself, he would be more afraid.

Could it be that the Buddha plans to personally convert him into Buddhism?

He retreated tentatively, finding the Buddha Lord not stopping him, then asked, "May I leave then?"

The Buddha Lord clasped his hands: "Master Jiang, you may go."

Huh?

Didn’t seem like they wanted to convert him.

So what did the Buddha want from him?

Was it because he was the heart’s desire of the Ancient Saint of Cloud Desolation?

That wouldn’t make sense, the Buddha is himself a Boundary Master, no need to curry favor with the Ancient Saint of Cloud Desolation, right?

After thinking, Jiang Fan’s gaze fell on the Boundary Master’s forehead, and he had a hunch.

Could it be that the Void Ancient Tree activated multiple times when he was in danger in the meditation chamber, catching the Buddha’s attention?

The Buddha noticed Jiang Fan’s mystery and deliberately showed goodwill?

Just as the thought arose, the Buddha Formation trembled lightly, then began to shrink, finally transforming into a thumb-sized "卍" mark, imprinted into Jiang Fan’s body.

Witnessing this scene, the surrounding fifteen Buddha Venerates all trembled.

They, usually calm, now had waves surging in their eyes.

Jiang Fan felt warmth in his body, showing a look of surprise and doubt:

"What is this?"

The Buddha Lord’s white eyebrows rose, his old eyes filled with fluctuation.

After a good while, he hesitated, then clasped his hands and slightly nodded towards Jiang Fan:

"Disciple... greets Uncle Master."

Fourteen Buddha Venerates, one after another, clasped hands and bowed: "We greet Uncle Master."

Outside the Buddha Formation, hundreds of Bodhisattvas bowed as well.

"We greet the Ancestor Uncle Master."

Wait, what?

Jiang Fan was dumbfounded; the current Buddha Venerates were all taught by the Buddha and hence considered his disciples.

What did it mean for them to call Jiang Fan Uncle Master?

It meant Jiang Fan was the Buddha’s Junior Brother?

No, this... is too big a joke, right?

How could Jiang Fan and a Saint Realm Buddha call each other brothers?

Yue Mingzhu and Pingtian Bodhisattva’s eyes were wide open.

Especially Pingtian Bodhisattva.

His good brother from Central Earth suddenly became the Junior Brother of the Buddha’s top figure?

This leap was too vast for him to accept for a while.

Jiang Fan took a deep breath and said, "Buddha Venerates, please speak carefully."

"What virtue or ability does the junior possess to warrant your calling me Uncle Master?"

The Buddha Lord hastily returned the gesture, saying, "This is the Buddha’s decree."

"That 卍 mark inscribed is the symbol of Yansheng Buddha. The Buddha bestowing it to you signifies acknowledging you as his Junior Brother."

The so-called "Yansheng" means a secondary level.

The Buddha is a Saint Buddha, and Jiang Fan is the Yansheng Buddha following closely behind.

The Buddha Lord said, "With this 卍 mark, you can move through the Hell Realm with the identity of Yansheng Buddha, seeing you as if seeing the true form of Hell Realm’s Buddha Lord."

Hiss!

Doesn’t that mean, from now on, he has the backing of a Saint Realm Buddha?

Anyone wanting to deal with him would have to consider the Buddha at his back!

Jiang Fan couldn’t contain his excitement, but when he realized the Buddha’s motive was due to the Void Ancient Tree, he began to worry.

Could the Buddha covet the Void Ancient Tree?

After pondering, Jiang Fan pressed this question down.

Firstly, with Dao Slave’s suppression, the Buddha couldn’t act.

Secondly, if the Buddha did act, he’d hide back with Yunhuang.

He’d take the benefits first, and worry about troubles later.

Jiang Fan, showing a composed demeanor, clasped his hands following the Buddhist etiquette, saying, "Nephews, there’s no need for excessive courtesy."

"From now on, we’re all one family."

Speaking of family, Jiang Fan remembered there were still some matters left unhandled on the scene.

His gaze fell on the Giant Emperor of Twin Suns.

He had always wanted to cultivate a Poison Body, but its cultivation requirements were extremely harsh.

It required the essence of a Saint, a Merit Divine Stele, and the cursed Sun Wheel of the Giant Emperor.

The first two had been obtained, but the cursed Sun Wheel was hard to get.

Now, finally, he had an opportunity!
