Old Buddha Nantai
A black tunnel appeared above the hall. An old man with thinly spread hair and a hunched back walked out from it. He was wearing a string of white jade beads on his chest.
"Mm?"
Qin Nan tensed.
Although this old man did not emit any aura, he gave Ye Xiwen a feeling that he was as tall as a mountain. Once the power in his body erupted, it would be truly unstoppable. Nothing could withstand it.
"Master, you're finally here!"
Yuanji and Yuanjue were overjoyed.
"Greetings, Old Buddha Nantai!"
The elders' eyes flickered helplessly, but they did not dare to lower their guard. They quickly greeted Old Buddha Nantai.
Old Buddha Nantai was a special existence in the Ancient Bodhi Temple. He was good at eating, drinking, and gambling. He often cursed out loud. He did not seem like a monk at all.
Yuanji and Yuanjue were only behaving like this because of Old Buddha Nantai's indulgence.
However, no matter how the disciples reacted, or how they ended up infuriating the Bodhisattvas of the sect, nothing happened in the end.
Rumor had it that Old Buddha Nantai was the elder brother of the Bodhi Ancestor of the sect, but it was never proven.
"Master, here's what happened …"
Yuanji glanced at the elders and immediately transmitted his voice. He did not forget to exaggerate and add fuel to the fire.
"Humph, so much for being the elders of the Heart-Cleansing Temple. What would the others think of our Ancient Bodhi Temple if they knew what you're doing?"
Old Buddha Nantai straightened his face. His words shook the hall vigorously.
"Old Buddha, about this …"
The elders wore a wry look.
"Hehe, Qin Nan, it's fine now that my master is here. My Master is a person who pays the most attention to the stakes of a bet … "
Yuanji immediately transmitted his voice to Qin Nan.
After all, he was the host of the event. If Qin Nan were to suffer a great loss, he would be utterly embarrassed.
"That being said, I do appreciate your kind intentions."
Old Buddha Nantai suddenly switched the topic.
The elders, Yuanji, and Yuanjue were stunned.
Qin Nan also looked at Yuanji strangely.
"Master, you …"
Yuanji collected his thoughts and was about to speak.
"Children shouldn't interrupt when adults are talking!"
Old Buddha Nantai knocked Yuanji's head heavily without mercy. Yuanji's eyes widened. He could only mutter no matter how hard he tried. He could not even transmit his Divine Will.
"Old Buddha, our thoughts are …"
Seeing that the situation had taken a turn for the better, the Elders hurriedly prepared to speak.
"Didn't I just say it? Children shouldn't interrupt when adults are talking. "
Old Buddha Nantai harrumphed coldly. His aura loomed over the elders, causing them to shudder. Their eyes were filled with astonishment.
Not only them, but even Qin Nan was stunned.
What was Old Buddha Nantai's attitude?
"Qin … pfft, cultivator."
Old Buddha Nantai wore a kind smile and said, "You can't just take Liujie away like that, but it's fine if you're willing to go to the Bodhi Pond."
Qin Nan's eyes turned cold.
He was well aware of what kind of place the Bodhi Pond was.
The elders immediately let out relieved sighs. So that was what Old Buddha Nantai was thinking.
"Of course, you don't have to stay in the Bodhi Pond all the time. A day is enough. It won't be good if you stay there for too long."
Old Buddha Nantai said with a smile.
"Only … a day?"
Qin Nan was startled.
The elders felt like vomiting blood. They did not expect Old Buddha Nantai to make such a huge turn of events.
Everyone knew the Bodhi Pond was a magical place that forcibly converted all kinds of living beings. An Exceptional Genius would have to stay there for at least four to five months to convert them.
In Lin Nan's case, it would most likely take at least seven months.
What was the point of staying there for a day?
Old Buddha Nantai was obviously helping Qin Nan!
"Old Buddha, the Great Radiant Bodhisattva won't agree to it!"
The Great Elder blurted out. The Great Radiant Bodhisattva was Liujie's master, a peak Nine Heavens Supreme. He was quite respected in the Ancient Bodhi Temple.
Old Buddha Nantai only glanced at the Great Elder calmly. The Great Elder immediately swallowed his words.
However, Qin Nan could not help but frown.
"This Old Buddha Nantai accidentally mentioned the word 'Qin'. It's obvious that he knows who I am. Why is he asking me to stay at the Bodhi Pond for a day? "
Several thoughts crossed Qin Nan's mind.
Someone at Old Buddha Nantai's level would surely have a motive behind his actions.
"Cultivator, just accept my request. If you don't, that bald donkey will surely hunt you down. You won't be able to avoid a lot of trouble."
Old Buddha Nantai chuckled. He suddenly transmitted his voice to Qin Nan, "Besides, I won't harm you for Feiyue's sake."
Qin Nan's heart skipped a beat.
Was this Old Buddha Nantai close to the copper mirror?
"Fine, I'll do as you say."
Qin Nan brought his fists together after a slight hesitation.
He had no idea what the relationship between Old Buddha Nantai and the copper mirror was. However, with Old Buddha Nantai's cultivation, he could easily take Qin Nan down by force.
He was already being very kind by not doing so.
That being said, Old Buddha Nantai must be up to something. Qin Nan decided to take one step at a time and react accordingly.
Old Buddha Nantai wore a smile. He waved his hand, summoning a golden door in the air.
"You'll reach the Bodhi Pond once you enter the door."
Old Buddha Nantai flicked his finger and tossed a piece of paper to Qin Nan. He said, "Show it to the people inside the door, and they won't trouble you. I'll look for you in a day's time."
Qin Nan nodded. He turned around and entered the entrance without hesitation, disappearing into thin air.
The group of elders could only watch helplessly.
Yuanji was able to speak again when Old Buddha Nantai waved his hand. He immediately blurted out after holding it in for a long time, "Ah, you old prick, don't you know he's my brother? How dare you send him to …"
Old Buddha Nantai rolled his eyes. He looked at Yuanjue and said with a smile, "Why didn't you come to see me in the past ten years? You unfilial disciple, don't you know how greedy I am? "
Yuanjue's eyes dimmed. He said, "I've already quit cooking …"
Old Buddha Nantai waved his hand before Yuanjue could finish, "Come and see me in five days."
