Going to the Western Paradise for Buddhist Scriptures?
Whether it was the literal meaning or the deeper meaning, this was definitely not a good thing.
The current Western Heaven was the crucial moment to lay out the West Journey, unfold the chessboard, and plan the chess pieces.
Amongst them, there were many parties that had mixed interests…
It was definitely a place of trouble!
Ye Dao's first reaction was naturally to refuse.
However, before he could speak, an illusory figure had already appeared along with the voice transmission.
He had a white beard and white hair, and his Taoist robe fluttered slightly. He stood with his hands behind his back, and his eyes were filled with the indifference of a saint.
He was different from the usual Patriarch Subhuti.
Extremely dangerous!
Ye Dao's entire body shook almost instantly, and he hurriedly stood up to welcome him.
"good-for-nothing disciple Ye Dao greets Patriarch!”
Patriarch Subhuti nodded slightly and did not say anything else. Clearly, he was waiting for Ye Dao to continue.
Ye Dao gritted his teeth and refused." Ancestral Master, I'm stupid. The Western Heaven is far away. I'm afraid I'll delay my cultivation that I can't advance in the first place…"
Patriarch Subhuti frowned slightly." Don't be in a hurry to refuse. Let me explain it to you."”
"Do you know why I chose you out of all the disciples?”
Ye Dao pretended to be confused and shook his head slightly.
"There are three reasons.”
"Firstly, that monkey caused quite a commotion just now, but you didn't join in the fun. It's obvious that you cultivate hard and can endure loneliness. You have the Buddha nature. Going to the western paradise like this will be greatly beneficial to your cultivation!”
"Secondly, the Western Paradise talks about fate. You are quite close to that monkey. Although you didn't do it intentionally, you are already inextricably linked to the Western Paradise.”
"Lastly, many of our senior brothers and junior brothers are in seclusion to cultivate. It is difficult for anyone to hold up their cards. Although your cultivation level is not high enough, your aura already has the charm of my Tristar Crescent Cave.”
Ye Dao was speechless.
Why did this sound so familiar?
Wasn't this the trick he often used to trick monkeys?!
Instantly, Ye Dao felt helpless.
But now that he had said so much, this was the most Patriarch Subhuti had said in the past thousand years, other than preaching on the Dao.
"Thank you for your appreciation, Patriarch. I will definitely complete the mission!”
Patriarch Subhuti raised his eyebrows slightly.”
"Your mission is easy, but it's also difficult."”
"That is to go to the western paradise and get a true scripture for me!”
Ye Dao was dumbfounded.
Getting the scriptures from the western paradise?
Was Patriarch going to become a monk himself?!
But thinking about it, it was impossible.
The people who were going to learn the scriptures had all been planned out beforehand, and they were extremely important in the Cultivation Tribulation of the West…
But even if he didn't fall into this scheme, he wouldn't be much better off.
Obtaining a true scripture might be troublesome for others.
But who was Patriarch Subhuti?
That was the Good Separation of Saint Zhunti, one of the two great masters of the West. In terms of status, who in the Western Heaven could compare to him?!
Obtaining a true scripture was just a matter of a thought, why would he need to go through so much trouble?
There must be something wrong with this abnormal situation!
Ye Dao understood almost instantly.
However, looking at the indifferent Patriarch Subhuti, he could only brace himself and agree."Disciple obeys!"
Patriarch Subhuti was satisfied.
He then said," You haven't been in the sect for long and your cultivation is still shallow. The journey to the Western Paradise is long. I will let the immortal crane in the cave send you there and give you an imperial order to make all the evil retreat. In this way, you will reach the Western Paradise in half a month."”
"Thank you, Patriarch!" Ye Dao bowed.
Patriarch Subhuti smiled in satisfaction. This disciple of his was quite smart.
Moreover, it looked pretty good.
Even if he didn't have any credit, he had worked hard. Although he was close to the monkey, he was rarely obedient. After a few years, when he remembered, he might even be able to go to the reincarnation cycle to obtain the true spirit and give it some good fortune.
"There's no time to lose. Go immediately.”
"Yes, sir!"
Mount Lingtai and Mount Fangcun.
A white light rose from the ground and flew towards the west.
It was a snow-white crane. On top of it, a young man's white clothes fluttered in the wind. His immortal aura fluttered in the air, and he had the demeanor of an immortal.
Except, Ye Dao did not have the mood to care about this at this moment.
Ye Dao frowned.
"Exalted Immortal, don't worry. I, Bai Yu, have always been extremely fast. I'll definitely be able to send you to the western paradise in half a month.”
Below him, a light female voice sounded, clearly expressing her goodwill.
This was because there was an imperial decree on his body…
This was an edict personally bestowed by Great Immortal Subhuti!
Who could have such preferential treatment in the past ten million years?!
Almost instantly, Bai Yu was certain that the Shangxian on him was a disciple that the Great Immortal valued greatly!
"Yes,"
Ye Dao was rather perfunctory. He closed his eyes but was extremely restless.
He was in big trouble!
Ye Dao also knew the thoughts of a great figure like the Ancestral Master. Logically speaking, his cultivation was not enough. It was fine if he sent a crane, which could be considered as the sect's sympathy. However, with this True Spirit Edict...
Moreover, he was in such a hurry to set off today.
It was completely illogical!
Go to the Western Heaven to seek the true scripture…
This matter was extremely strange!
He had to be careful!
Ye Dao had already made up his mind.
On the journey to the western paradise, everything must be stable!
Ye Dao thought of that sentence:
I'd rather do nothing than try and make a mistake…
They were panicking!
Along the way, there were immortal cranes galloping about, and the imperial decree protected them. It was rare for the Three Realms to encounter any dangerous places.
Just like that, half a month later.
Western Paradise.
Western Heaven.
Great Thunderclap Temple.
Ye Dao had just stepped into the Pure Land of the Western Paradise when he sensed an aura that was completely different from the Daoist path.
Magnificent! It was incomparably grand!
There were thousands of palaces, and they were magnificent. They were countless times larger than the imperial palaces in the mortal world.
What was even more different was that under the many palaces, there was a vast Buddhist Kingdom. Billions of monks were chanting scriptures all the time. Above the clouds in the sky, Buddhas were reclining and Bodhisattvas were meditating…
As soon as he arrived, a monk came over from the other side.
"Benefactor Ye Dao, please come with me."
But Ye Dao paused slightly, his entire person's scalp tingling.
He saw that the monk had a kind face and wore a simple kasaya. He was an ascetic monk and always had a smile on his face.
Was this Kasyapa?
This was a supreme figure!
What scripture was he going to get the first disciple of Rulai, the first ancestor of the Zen Sect, to lead?!
Oh no!
Ye Dao's eyes were filled with bitterness.
