After encountering Pu Dian outside of the Secluded Spring Valley, Yi Tian's heart, which had been stretched taut for many years, could finally relax a little. These days, he himself had also been searching everywhere for Pu Dian's whereabouts. Unfortunately, every time he returned in defeat.
However, this time, he heard that Pu Dian had followed the footprints left by Monk Jie Ding in this tribulation. He had a plan in mind. After the two of them chatted in the air for a while, Yi Tian pointed at the Demon Soul Bodhi Tree in the middle of the Secluded Spring Lake in the distance and said, "Senior Brother, do you think this tree is related to Master Jie Ding? Should we go down and check it out?"
Pu Dian looked into the distance and replied, "We have to go down, but I'm worried that this place is also a dangerous place. We mustn't act rashly."
"Why is that?"
Pu Dian's expression turned serious. He pointed at the Demon Soul Bodhi Tree below and said, "This tree looks like the Bodhi Seed that was brought out from the Great Thunder Temple. This is originally a Buddhist sacred tree. It's a miracle that it has taken root and grown in this world for so many years."
"I've thought about this too. This should be the temporary resting place of Monk Jie Ding when he passed by. After planting the Bodhi Seed, he wanted to use it to extract the power of the demonic origin," said Yi Tian.
"Junior Brother is right. In the Demon Realm, spiritual cultivators can't replenish their spiritual power by attacking the demonic origin. They can only rely on the elixirs and spiritual spring water that they bring with them." Pu Dian hit the nail on the head, "With Monk Jie Ding's strength, it's naturally difficult for him to recover in the Demon Realm. Therefore, I think he planted the Bodhi Seed to purify the power of the demonic origin. Moreover, I'm sure there must be a large spiritual vein below."
"Senior Brother, you mean that Master Jie Ding sat here and purified the demonic origin in the underground spiritual vein before replenishing himself?" Yi Tian's eyes lit up.
"That's right. I think after Monk Jie Ding left, the Bodhi Tree continued to absorb the demonic origin for tens of thousands of years to form the current situation." Pu Dian's face showed a hint of joy, "Moreover, there must be a message left behind by Grandmaster Jie Ding under this Bodhi Tree."
"Then why don't we go down and investigate?" Yi Tian turned around and prepared to descend.
"Junior Brother, please wait." Pu Dian hurriedly stopped him, "As far as I know, the Great Lightning Zen Temple has always had a rule regarding the planting of Bodhi Seeds. Every planting must be done in the form of one tree and one beast."
Yi Tian turned around and asked, "Then Senior Brother means that there might be a Demonic Beast guarding the Demonic Soul Bodhi Tree below."
"It's not a possibility, it's a certainty," Pu Dian replied in a deep voice, "Junior brother should have noticed that there are no signs of demon activity within a thousand miles of this place, and there are no high level magical beasts' territories."
"That's true." Yi Tian thought for a while before replying, "I wonder how strong the magical beasts below are?"
"Stronger than you, about the same as me, about the middle stage of the Unification Stage." Pu Dian sighed, "I don't know what the guardian spiritual beast has become after the baptism of ten thousand years. Let's quietly go down and investigate. If we find something wrong, we can retreat without hesitation."
After a while, the two restrained their aura and slowly descended to the side of the quiet spring lake. Then, they gently cast the escape technique and floated on the water surface toward the Bodhi Tree root in the center of the lake in the distance.
After wearing the concealment cloak, as long as they didn't cast any spells, they could completely hide their whereabouts. Even if they swept across the lake, it would only cause a breeze.
Not long after, when the two approached the location of the Bodhi Tree root in the center of the island, Yi Tian couldn't help but admire in his heart. This was really a good place. The entire lake had a radius of a hundred miles, and the island in the center occupied ten miles. The Demonic Soul Bodhi Tree was planted in the center of the island, but his eyelids twitched for no reason as he found that there were many stone tablets engraved with words erected around the ground.
He panicked in his heart and hurriedly sent a sound transmission to Pu Dian, "Oh no, we have mistakenly entered the big array. I'm afraid we have already triggered the enchantment."
Pu Dian's face also changed drastically. Just as he was about to turn his head to reply, suddenly the words on the stone tablets around the bottom of his feet instantly lit up in dark gold. Then there seemed to be an invisible barrier around the two, separating them from each other. After Yi Tian scanned with his Divine Thought, he saw that Pu Dian was directly pushed out of the island and fell on the lake in the distance after being hit by several demonic lights.
It seemed that the array on this island was also limited by the cultivation level. It could directly move people above the Unification Stage. Immediately, a sound transmission sounded in his ear, "Junior Fellow Apprentice Yi, go inside and investigate. I will wait outside. It seems that this opportunity is not with me, so I can't force it."
In the face of such a situation, Yi Tian could only brace himself and persevere. He slowly raised a protective barrier to protect himself before taking a step forward. At the same time, his pupils constricted as he used the Heavenly Demonic Eye to look around, hoping to find the nodes of the array and break it.
However, after walking for more than half a mile, he still could not find a single node of the array. Yi Tian's heart trembled as he secretly observed his surroundings. He did not expect Master Jie Ding's attainments in array formations to be so profound that he could not find any flaws in the array formation that he set up.
The more he walked, the more he found that the wind around him was blowing more violently. When it blew on his protective shield, it made a buzzing sound. Yi Tian's face darkened as he knew that he was approaching the core area of the array. He immediately used all his strength to cast a protective shield and walked towards the Demonic Soul Bodhi Tree in the center of the island.
When he was about three miles away, the wind around him suddenly disappeared, and the area in front of him suddenly became clear. However, the Demonic Soul Bodhi Tree from before was nowhere to be seen. Yi Tian was shocked as he thought to himself, "Did I enter an illusion array?" As he walked forward, he realized that he was walking on a small path. There were all kinds of strange flowers and plants growing on both sides of the path.
He scanned with his Divine Telekinesis and recognized that many of them were Heavenly Tribulation Spiritual Plants. As he continued walking, he saw a 30-feet-tall Demonic Soul Bodhi Tree. There was a scripture book under the tree, and there seemed to be a shadow sitting cross-legged. Beside the shadow, there was a half-foot-long cub lying there as if it was in a deep sleep.
Needless to say, this was the scene when Master Jie Ding was recuperating here. The cub next to him was probably the tree and beast that Senior Brother Pu Dian mentioned earlier.
After slowly walking forward, Yi Tian realized that the shadow had suddenly disappeared, leaving only the scripture book on the ground. At the same time, the cub seemed to have been awakened by someone. It opened its mouth and yawned, then stood up and stared at him.
After a while, it shouted, "Where did this Demonic Cultivator come from? How dare you trespass on the Buddhist Sect's peaceful land? Leave quickly, or I'll chase you out of here if you anger me."
"I don't know your name, but I guess you must be Master Jie Ding's guardian spiritual beast. I'm here for the Good and Evil Zen technique. I'll leave after reading it, "Yi Tian replied with the power of the Buddhist Sect.
