Chapter 482 481
The voice of the Vajra Monk was gentle yet resolute, like a warm current flowing into Ge Wenxiong's heart.
Seeing this, Shen Wanning, though reluctant, was also happy for Ge Wenxiong. She looked towards him and smiled, saying, "Brother Ge, don't forget to look out for us when the time comes!"
Ge Wenxiong gave a wry smile and responded, "Don't worry, Miss Shen. If I truly achieve something, I will never forget today's kindness."
Yu Qingtan then stepped forward with a gentle smile and said, "Brother Ge, I believe that you will definitely carve your own path."
Afterward, the three of them bowed to the Vajra Monk together to say their farewells. The Vajra Monk's shariputra emitted a gentle glow, illuminating the entire pagoda.
Guided by the light, Ge Wenxiong glanced at Yu Qingtan, then slowly walked towards the shrine, ready to accept the inheritance of the Lotus Flower Treasury Sea.
Just as Ge Wenxiong was about to touch the shariputra, the pagoda suddenly shook, and an ancient and powerful breath burst forth from the shariputra, enveloping Ge Wenxiong in an instant.
Yu Qingtan and Shen Wanning watched anxiously as Ge Wenxiong's body gradually became replaced by golden light, as if he were undergoing a metamorphosis.
Time seemed to stand still until the golden light slowly receded, revealing Ge Wenxiong's figure once again before everyone.
At this moment, he had become bald, his body radiating a faint golden light, his eyes held more compassion and determination, as if he truly had been reborn and become a completely new being, emitting a presence that reached the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
He had become bald, and he had become stronger.
"Amitabha, my teacher has completely passed away; from now on, my Dharma name will be 'Pure Heart.' I vow to remember today's transformation with this name, always harboring a pure heart, carrying compassion, and using the Buddha's teachings to guide others," said Ge Wenxiong, now known as Master Pure Heart, with his hands joined together.
"Congratulations, Master Pure Heart!" Yu Qingtan and Shen Wanning congratulated with a bow.
Yu Qingtan covertly checked the system panel and noticed that Ge Wenxiong was still on her list of devotees.
"Fairy Qingtan, Miss Shen, the Lotus Flower Treasury Sea is deeper within the Burial Buddha Ground. Let's go and unlock its contents," Master Pure Heart said.
Yu Qingtan and Shen Wanning naturally had no objections, so the three of them embarked on their journey deeper into the Burial Buddha Ground.
As they delved further, the number of pagodas gradually thinned, and ancient Buddha statues lay scattered around, as if telling tales of past glory and transformation. A subtle Buddha fragrance permeated the air, contrasting the surrounding silence and inspiring a sense of reverence.
Before long, they arrived at the deepest part of the Burial Buddha Ground. Here, an ancient Buddha hall stood quietly, its doors firmly shut as if isolated from the world. The door was engraved with intricate Buddha patterns, each stroke imbued with profound Buddhist principles, leading one to involuntarily slow down and focus their mind.
"This is the place," said Master Pure Heart as he slowly approached the door, gently placing his hands on it and closing his eyes, chanting special scriptures as mysterious energy flowed into the door.
"Open!"
Soon, with a soft call from Master Pure Heart, the hall doors burst open, revealing a passageway to the unknown.
Light twinkled within the passage, as if countless stars were in motion. The three exchanged glances and stepped into the pathway without hesitation.
At the end of the passageway lay a gargantuan stone chamber, where a massive lotus platform was levitating in the center. The platform was primitive and unadorned, yet all three of them understood that it was certainly extraordinary.
Master Pure Heart, following the method taught by the Vajra Monk, leaped onto the platform and began to sit cross-legged before closing his eyes to recite scriptures.
As Master Pure Heart's devout incantation echoed through the stone chamber, the simple lotus platform seemed to be endowed with life, slowly emitting a gentle glow that cast an otherworldly light across the entire chamber.
A faint fragrance filled the air, emanating tranquility and auspiciousness from ancient times, providing an unprecedented cleansing and peace for one's soul.
"Qing Tan, do you feel it? This lotus platform... it seems to be an incredible treasure," Shen Wanning said to Qing Tan.
"Principles swirling around, this lotus platform, should be an Immortal Artifact!" exclaimed Yu Qingtan as her Purifying Buddha Eyes sparkled, taking a deep breath and slowly speaking.
"What! An Immortal Artifact!" Shen Wanning thought she had already become accustomed to shocks when it came to Yu Qingtan, yet she couldn't help exclaiming in surprise.
"Shh!" Yu Qingtan signaled Shen Wanning not to disturb Master Pure Heart. Continue reading stories on My Virtual Library Empire
"Qing Tan, an Immortal Artifact, this is an Immortal Artifact! Are we really going to just let him have it?" Shen Wanning pulled on Yu Qingtan's hand, whispering to her with a transmission.
"An Immortal Artifact is all, I'll give you one later!" Yu Qingtan arrogantly transmitted back to Shen Wanning.
Although she was also seeing an Immortal Artifact for the first time, as a competitor, she was confident in procuring some Immortal Artifacts.
For instance, through the system's lottery, although the probability of getting good items had decreased as her realm increased, once a worthwhile item appeared, it was usually something she could use.
Plus, once she became stronger, "borrowing" some Immortal Artifacts from enemies wouldn't be very difficult.
"Uh, alright then! I'll be looking forward to it!" Upon hearing Yu Qingtan's words, Shen Wanning also felt her own vision was too narrow; she did not believe Yu Qingtan was just bragging.
Inside the radiant stone chamber, Master Pure Heart's chanting became more sonorous and profound, as if piercing through the barriers of space-time, resonating with ancient Buddhist powers.
About thirty minutes later, as Master Pure Heart willed it, the levitating lotus platform began to rotate slowly, releasing a more dazzling light, and ultimately the light converged, transforming into a golden platform.
"Amitabha, this platform is called 'Vajra Lotus Pure Heart Platform,' one of the sacred artifacts of the Buddha Sect, a Supreme Immortal Artifact, containing supreme Buddhist principles and purifying power," declared Master Pure Heart, opening his eyes that twinkled with wisdom and compassion.
"Congratulations to Master Pure Heart on acquiring the Immortal Artifact!" Yu Qingtan and Shen Wanning stepped forward to congratulate him, with Shen Wanning inspecting the Vajra Lotus Pure Heart Platform closely.
"Thanks to Fairy Qingtan and Miss Shen for your auspicious presence, I've only just begun to refine the Vajra Lotus Pure Heart Platform, and can hardly wield any of its power. However, its Immortal Artifact space, the Lotus Flower Treasury Sea, contains many treasures!"
Master Pure Heart said, while he pinched a talisman gesture and a pile of treasures began to fly out from the Vajra Lotus Pure Heart Platform, quickly filling up nearly the entire stone chamber.
Within the chamber, treasures shone resplendently, a sight filled with rare and exotic treasures, including precious Immortal Crystals, Divine Crystals, and ancient Taoist Instruments and Talismans, amongst others.
"Both of you, had you not assisted me, I'm afraid I would not have been able to locate the Burial Buddha Ground, or even if I had, I might have perished at the hands of the Source of Inner Demons. Now that I have received my master's legacy and the Immortal Artifact Vajra Lotus Pure Heart Platform, these treasures, shall we divide them equally? How does that sound?"
Master Pure Heart sincerely proposed.
