Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree

Chapter 868 - 318: Mei: How Has Jing Qiu Been These Past Few Years? (Bonus - )

Among them, Wuzhou and Yan even believe that the things hidden within the Four Guardian Stars might be the "Heavenly Creation" of the Great Universe, or perhaps an Infinite Tribulation Device, which could help Them to achieve enlightenment again through external objects.Hel didn’t think so at the time, but also felt that the Yanhuang Federation was too unusual, perhaps a place favored by Heavenly Destiny in the Great Universe, just like those Sons of Heavenly Destiny.

"And the Wanwu Association." Ji Jingqiu said coldly, "Without surprise, Zhang Tiancheng from Wanwu Association had already ’collaborated’ with Wuzhou."

Earlier, the Federal officials had found dealings between the Wanwu Association and the Yanfutu forces but hadn’t immediately acted.

Now, with the news coming from Mei’s side, the Federation quickly mobilized forces overnight, coordinating with the six great families, to first take down the Wanwu Association.

However, this matter was temporarily suppressed by Ji Jingqiu.

Because he needed to deal with Wuzhou first, avoiding alerting the enemy.

"If Wuzhou had infiltrated a year ago and hasn’t been discovered until now, They only have two choices—"

"One is to hide within someone’s mind without showing any trace; the other is..."

Hel paused.

Ji Jingqiu calmly continued: "Supreme True Buddha."

Hel nodded: "If it’s the latter, then Their purpose is very clear— They are plotting against you, or rather, the Fire House Buddha Hell Visualization you possess."

Ji Jingqiu pondered: "Besides Wuzhou, do any of the three of you covet me as well?"

Hel replied blandly: "Being able to disregard the Nether Sea, and even single-handedly sustain a vast Pure Land, suppressing the Bitter Sea, such a Supreme Method naturally interests us."

Ji Jingqiu comforted: "No problem, later you four can gather here to study."

Hel: "?"

Suddenly, Ji Jingqiu left the Inner Realm.

The terminal uploaded a message from the Supreme True Buddha Sect.

After receiving news from Mei’s side, Ji Jingqiu had considered this possibility and contacted the Supreme True Buddha Sect to inquire about recent situations.

After reading the message sent by Huang Fuxing.

Ji Jingqiu furrowed his brows, Buddha Country?

If he hadn’t received news from Mei’s side, he might have just paid slight attention.

But now, it was unsurprisingly the handiwork of Wuzhou.

He might have already infiltrated Buddha Country long ago, further deepening his "control" through Buddha Country this time.

This was waiting for me to deliver myself.

"What is Wuzhou most afraid of?" Ji Jingqiu asked.

Hel glanced at the small Wuzhou beside him and sneered: "I’m asking you, what are you most afraid of?"

Small Wuzhou: "?"

Are you insane?

"I don’t like your look at all." Hel found an excuse and swatted small Wuzhou out of the Pure Land with a flick.

In an instant.

The previously lying still small Wuzhou suddenly emitted a sharp sound, as if he had sat on a furnace, jumping up and desperately leaping into the Pure Land World.

Blood-colored rain fell on him, sizzling as if doused with sulfuric acid, rolling around on the ground, and finally rolling into a lotus pond, white steam rising like vapor.

A moment later.

A "corpse" floated on the water surface.

In this sudden and unexpected change, Ji Jingqiu and Hel were stunned on the spot.

Their gazes met, both deep in thought.

"You mentioned before, the two things Wuzhou fears most are Karma and the Bitter Sea?"

"Engaging the Body Refining through the Illusion Sea of Suffering might not be enough."

"I’m not refining my body this time; I’ll invite him into the trap instead."

"?"

"The infiltrated Wuzhou at present is unlikely to be the main body, right?" Ji Jingqiu confirmed.

"Naturally. Much like this guy’s situation." Hel slightly raised his chin, pointing at small Wuzhou.

Ji Jingqiu nodded: "Then it should be fine."

He couldn’t help but recall an old friend.

The Blood Arhat of the Supreme True Buddha Sect.

Hel warned:

"You’re thinking too optimistically. Wuzhou is very cautious, and They would never rashly enter your Inner Realm, even if They covet your Bodhi Tree immensely."

"With Their nature, They would first twist and assimilate your spirit; once you become another ’Wuzhou’, the Bodhi Tree and Fire House Buddha Hell Visualization naturally belong to Them."

Ji Jingqiu remained calm, already prepared: "Then I’ll ignite the Bitter Sea Water to refine the Spiritual Holy Embryo. Besides, at that time, it might not be up to Them whether They want to enter or not."

"What do you mean?"

Ji Jingqiu glanced at small Wuzhou, who was laboriously climbing out of the pond, openly discussing with Hel how to deal with the very person in question right in front of him.

Bold honesty was the key.

"Previously, when the Bodhi Tree rooted in the Spirit Ocean, I felt a summoning from the depths."

Hel first frowned, then suddenly looked shocked: "Are you speaking of Mu Shitian’s Silent Annihilation Divine Country?"

"Yes." Ji Jingqiu said, "Wuzhou wants to wait for me to enter the trap, but I also want to invite him into the trap, let’s see who is more cunning."

Hel was silent for a moment: "Then go ahead, there’s nothing to fear within the Federation. I don’t believe Wuzhou can truly assimilate Mu Heshan’s mental core within a few years."

"Oh?"

Ji Jingqiu reflected silently.

Next to him, small Wuzhou frowned deeply. Another brother joining?

These two not treating him as an outsider in their discussion, isn’t that going too far?

Suddenly, Zhan Yang and several Heavenly Persons from the Wanwu Association entered and sat together.

"The plan to attack the Four Guardian Stars can be attempted," Zhan Yang said, his eyelids lowering slightly. "All the Divine Lords are stationed at the borders, and the Four Directions God are guarding the Abyss Zone. With Ji Jingqiu far away at East Three Bright Star, this is indeed the time when the defense of the Four Guardian Stars is the weakest."

Zhan Yang sighed: "We have too few people."

"Doesn’t the Yin Yang Dao Palace have a dozen Heavenly Person Perfection who can infiltrate the Federation?"

Mentioning the Yin Yang Dao Palace, Zhan Yang’s brows suddenly furrowed: "These people have violated their agreement with the president!"

The one who spoke earlier immediately frowned.

Zhan Yang took a deep breath: "They believe that Ji Jingqiu has already come to power and can no longer be restrained. They are currently withdrawing to their main sect."

Silence fell over the scene.

The start of all these troubles could almost be traced back to Ji Jingqiu!

Now all of the strong in the Federation have been diverted to the borders, and the Gods cannot spare any effort.

At this moment, the defense of the Four Guardian Stars is at its weakest, and I have too few people."

"Do we take down the Four Guardian Stars?" Zhan Yang suddenly showed a ruthless expression and said: "As long as we can liberate Hel, it’s worth it."

Everyone knew very well whom Zhan Yang was referring to.

And to break through to the Great Heavenly Position with that one’s help, at present, how much of Zhan Yang is still his own?

All these two who didn’t treat him as an outsider were concerned, discussing him as if he didn’t matter.

...

Before entering the Buddha Country.

Ji Jingqiu found Senior Brother, handing him a Heart Lamp with some "ingredients" added to it.

Yang Yao’s expression was filled with emotion: "Has Mei finally returned?!"

"Yes, she’s healing at the Wilderness Sect right now, and I can’t leave at the moment."

"Alright! Leave it to me!"

After watching Senior Brother leave.

Ji Jingqiu found himself lost in thought.
