The purpose of Ye Mo's trip was to rescue Jiu Moxin and reassemble the Ten Great Deities. When the time came, he would have enough power to fight against the Saint Lofting Heaven and the Divine Wilderness Dominator. He could even kill his way to the Zone of the Gods and kill all the Supremes.
Since the Buddha Sect was willing to let Jiu Moxin go, that would be for the best. If the Buddha Sect refused to let Jiu Moxin go, he would have to use force.
"Cixin, bring Ye Mo into the Yangxin Palace. In three days, we'll hold the Opening Ceremony for him!"
Wudi Buddha said calmly.
"Yes!"
At that moment, a monk wearing a black kasaya slowly walked out. He looked at Ye Mo indifferently. There was no emotion in his eyes. "Almsgiver, this way please!"
"Cixin!"
Ye Mo looked at the little monk in front of him, all sorts of thoughts swirling in his heart. The little monk in front of him was his own son. But he didn't see any trace of emotion in his compassionate eyes. It was as if he was a stranger to him.
His own son didn't show any emotion when he saw him. That was absolutely unbelievable.
"There must be something wrong!"
Ye Mo muttered to himself. But he quickly recovered and followed his son out of the palace.
Suddenly, the Buddhas sitting on the lotus seats revealed ferocious faces. They didn't look like Gods or Buddhas anymore.
"Wudi Buddha, I didn't think that even Ye Mo would be a believer of yours," one of the Buddhas said. "Your Buddhist Prestige has spread far and wide. This time, your strength will increase by leaps and bounds again."
His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. He was one of the Four Great Pharaohs of the Buddha Sect, the Dapeng Golden Buddha. His strength wasn't weak either – he had reached the Saint Realm.
"Wudi Buddha, according to the rumors, this Ye Mo has the strength to kill Supremes," another Buddha said. "Why would he believe in you? Could this be a trap?"
Another Buddha said.
This Buddha was naked from the waist up. His muscles were tight, and his body was covered with black swastika symbols. He was also one of the Four Great Pharaohs, the Fufa Golden Buddha.
"No!"
Nameless Buddha Emperor shook his head and said, "I can already feel his faith in me. This is something that cannot be faked. To think that such a person would have faith in me is beyond my expectations. Once I absorb his faith, my strength will definitely increase by more than just a little. For so many years, the mortals of the various worlds have been worshipping that guy's Buddha statue, and I haven't absorbed any faith at all."
"For such a powerful Sovereign, the power of faith must be very strong. How could those old monks know how to use their own advantages?"
"The Buddha statues that we worship in the secular world should be replaced as soon as possible. We can also absorb some faith!"
"The universe has developed for so many years. Our Buddhist Sect's Dharma has been passed down. Who knows how many Buddha statues there are? How could it be so easy to replace them?"
The Buddhas began to discuss among themselves.
At the same time, Ci Xin brought Ye Mo into a pavilion to rest. He looked around, and then his indifferent eyes returned to normal. He immediately said, "Father, we can't stay here for long. I'll take you out of the Buddhist Sect immediately!"
"Cixin, are you alright? What's going on? "
Ye Mo was surprised when he saw the sudden change in Ci Xin's eyes. He guessed that there must be something wrong with the Buddhist Sect.
"I'm fine," Ci Xin said. "Everything I did before was a disguise. Anyway, it's best that you don't stay here. What they meant by 'Enlightening You' was to absorb your faith and turn you into their Buddha Slave. The solemn Buddhas you saw weren't real Buddhas. They were all Buddha Slaves, the Buddha Slaves of the Supreme Buddha. The real Buddhas were all imprisoned by the Supreme Buddha."
Ci Xin said.
"What?"
Ye Mo's eyes were filled with disbelief when he heard Ci Xin's words. The Buddhas he saw weren't real Buddhas, and the real Buddhas were all imprisoned.
In other words, the Buddhist Sect was only wearing a layer of clothing.
Even Xiao Qing was shocked. This news was too shocking. If an ordinary person heard this news, they might not be able to stay calm.
Next, Ci Xin told Ye Mo everything that had happened in the Buddhist Sect.
It turned out that a long time ago, the Buddhist Sect was no longer the Buddhist Sect of the past. It was controlled by a mysterious expert – Emperor Wu.
Within the Buddhist Sect, all the true Buddhas had been locked up. As for Emperor Wudi, he had become the Sect Master of the Buddhist Sect. With the help of the influence of the Buddhist Sect in the Martial World, he had constructed quite a number of Buddha statues for people to worship.
As long as someone worshiped his Buddha statue was sincere, he would pull them into the Inner Sect. With the gimmick of Enlightening Him, he would absorb the faith of his believers. The stronger they were, the greater the increase in the strength of the Supreme Buddha. After absorbing the faith, Emperor Wu would turn them into Buddha Slaves.
Ci Xin wasn't spared either. Fortunately, Ci Xin was Ye Mo's son. The Defying Aura helped him resist for a while, allowing him to barely escape.
But he could only stay in the Buddhist Sect, not daring to make any moves. If he was discovered, he would die.
"Originally, I didn't want to tell you," Ci Xin said. "Because if I told you, you wouldn't believe in the Supreme Buddha anymore. If you don't believe in the Supreme Buddha, he'll notice."
Ye Mo nodded.
"Then how come you weren't discovered?"
Ye Mo asked curiously.
"Because he's already enlightened me," Ci Xin said. "We've signed a contract and become his Buddha Slave. But because of my father's identity, there's a gap in the contract."
Ci Xin said anxiously, "Father, we're running out of time!"
"Damn it!"
Ye Mo's face was filled with anger. He said, "Ci Xin, I've raised you for so many years, but I've never fulfilled my duties as a father. How can I abandon you?"
"Father, back in the Buddhist Realm, I said that you'll always be a great hero in my heart. I've never blamed you. Now that the situation is urgent, you should run for your life. I'll find a way to save my mother," Ci Xin said.
He didn't blame Ye Mo at all. If it weren't for Ye Mo back then, the billions of living beings in the Heavens Realm would have died.
Based on this alone, he was proud of his father!
"You know everything?"
Ye Mo asked in surprise.
"Yes!"
Ci Xin nodded and said, "Jiu Moxin is my mother. Actually, I've known for a long time. Or rather, I guessed it when I was in the secular Buddhist Sect. Father, I'll take you and escape now."
Ye Mo looked at Ci Xin and was very pleased. "Ci Xin, you're better than me as a father. Looks like you're clear about a lot of things. But, as a father, I'm a bit incompetent. I'm here today to save your mother. That Supreme Buddha or whatever, they're nothing in my eyes."
