Chapter 599: What’s My Avatar’s Is Mine

Chapter 599: Chapter 599: What’s My Avatar’s Is Mine

Xu Yunfan couldn’t help but marvel, then he muttered to himself.

’A clone’s talent is, after all, a reflection of my own Origin. With this as a cornerstone, I can truly achieve mastery on the path of the Sword Dao in the future.’

Wonderful!

What belonged to the clone was his.

With the help of the Attribute Panel, Xu Yunfan naturally shared in the Furious Tide-related Sword Intent that his Clone Han Shi had comprehended.

As Han Shi stabilized his Sword Seat, he gained complete mastery over the Fury Killing Sword Intent. The true essence of this vast, furious Sword Intent, along with all the profound insights gained from condensing the Sword Seat, was transmitted through the mystical Origin link of the Attribute Panel. It flowed without any hindrance and with perfect clarity, deep into the Divine Soul of Xu Yunfan’s main body.

The words "Strong Control" on the Attribute Panel flickered slightly, ensuring the transmission was perfectly accurate.

After a long while, Xu Yunfan opened his eyes. A sharp, sword-like glint of divine light instantly flashed through them. His understanding of the Fury Kill True Intent had deepened immensely, and even his own Dao Heart and will seemed to have been tempered, becoming more condensed and resilient.

This Sword Intent comprehension was like a perfect nutrient, nourishing his foundation and Divine Soul.

Excellent!

’This can be considered another ace up my sleeve.’

’After all, everyone knows that I cultivate the Divine Sky Nine Heavens Profound Vault Undying True Scripture and specialize in various Thunder Techniques.’

’Catching an opponent off guard with a sword strike like this would definitely be a huge surprise for them.’

After contemplating the Fury Killing Sword Intent that Clone Han Shi had comprehended, Xu Yunfan found it easy to grasp with the Attribute Panel’s assistance. In fact, due to the panel’s numerical properties, when he executed the Fury Killing Sword Intent, it was even more powerful than Clone Han Shi’s by a fair margin.

"Awesome!"

Xu Yunfan looked at the wisp of Fury Killing Sword Intent flickering at his fingertip.

The angrier the wielder, the more powerful the Sword Intent. This kind of Sword Intent could only be nurtured by someone with a deep-seated hatred and an extreme personality.

’It seems I left quite a psychological scar on Clone Han Shi.’

’Then again,’ he thought, ’those in the Wansheng Sword Sect who can comprehend Sword Intent all have extremely focused wills. Only by obsessing over a single point can they give rise to their various Sword Intents.’

After cultivating for half a day, Xu Yunfan turned his attention to his Clone Wukong in the Eastern Wilderness.

With a flicker of his thoughts, his consciousness crossed an endless expanse of space, his focus landing upon the Eastern Wilderness.

Sanzang and his three companions had long since left Zhenyuan Temple. They continued their journey, and after several decades, they had already traversed the Eastern Wilderness.

But at this moment, Clone Wukong had fallen into a strange, silent state.

Outwardly, he still looked like the same rebellious, staff-wielding monkey following beside Sanzang. His expression, however, lacked its initial wildness, replaced by a solemnity that suggested his simian nature had been worn away.

Deep within his Sea of Consciousness, the brilliant golden Buddha Light, condensed from his cultivation of the Great Virtuous Ming King Fighting Buddha Scripture, was now boiling.

This Buddha Light resonated with the Puchen Pure Land, and in his heart, he constantly worshiped the World Honored One Tathagata.

He chanted his name, visualized his body, and contemplated his form.

A Primordial Power—vast, compassionate, universally benevolent, boundlessly majestic, and radiant with victorious light—seemed to pierce through layers of time and space. It began to descend in wisps, resonating with incredible intensity with the Great Virtuous Ming King Fighting Buddha Scripture that Wukong cultivated.

’This account is toast!’

Seeing this, Xu Yunfan couldn’t help but frown.

In the Taihua Spirit Ruins Realm, the three top-tier sects—the Wansheng Sword Sect, the Primordial Sect, and the Puchen Pure Land—divided the world among themselves.

But the Buddhist Dharma cultivated by the Puchen Pure Land was the strangest of all. It emphasized worshiping the World Honored One Tathagata, receiving his spiritual light, and thereby attaining the body of a Buddha.

Everyone is a Buddha; everyone is a World Honored One Tathagata.

This was also why the World Honored One, after becoming a Daoist Lord, could still enlighten monks and turn them into his avatars at will, even without being able to descend in his true form.

After all, the power and principles of a single Daoist Lord, whose presence reflects across the heavens and Ten Thousand Realms, could likely shatter the Taihua Spirit Ruins Realm.

How could the Daoist Lords of the other two sects possibly allow that?

Now, with Clone Wukong constantly visualizing and worshiping him in his heart, a link had already been established with the World Honored One Tathagata.

’The clone could be turned into an avatar at any moment, and then the World Honored One could go smurfing in the newbie zone.’

But soon, Xu Yunfan’s frown completely vanished.

On his Attribute Panel, the Strong Control Attribute of his Profound Capital Eight Sceneries Celestial Refining Creation Cloud Scripture had long ago surpassed the level of the True Technique itself.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to spy without the World Honored One Tathagata noticing a thing.

’Having a system is great.’

After he finished absorbing Clone Wukong’s gains, Xu Yunfan unhesitatingly severed the image of the World Honored One Tathagata that had come along with it.

Xu Yunfan understood with perfect clarity. This scene only confirmed his judgment.

For decades, the Puchen Pure Land had used Sanzang’s party to journey across the Eastern Wilderness. Their purpose was to straighten the Earth Veins, subdue demons, and accumulate Merit. Now, the Ritual to guide the Zizai King Buddha Fruit Position was finally complete.

If one were to measure the Eastern Wilderness by foot, it would take a thousand years to cross. How far could Sanzang’s party have possibly traveled in comparison?

The Puchen Pure Land must have been constantly making preparations behind the scenes.

This Great Compassion and Great Mercy Light Lotus Victory Zizai King Buddha Fruit Position was extremely special.

The Puchen Pure Land had used Sanzang’s party to complete the Ritual for guiding the Zizai King Buddha Fruit Position in the Eastern Wilderness. This Fruit Position was not native to Taihua. It had been created by the Puchen Pure Land by gathering the Wish Power of all living beings in the Western Continent, condensed through ceaseless worship. It was a Fruit Position belonging exclusively to the Buddhist Sect and was not one of the one hundred and eight Celestial Spirits and Earthly Fiends.

This was a unique True Buddha Fruit Position that the Puchen Pure Land had spent countless millennia creating. They had gathered the mental power and faith of innumerable Buddhist disciples, studied the essence of the Buddhist Dharma, and within a specific King Buddha Ritual, used the Wish Power of all living beings as fuel and the supreme Buddhist Dharma as a mold to forcefully condense it out of the void.

In essence, it was a creation of faith, exclusive to the Puchen Pure Land, yet it possessed a majestic power that could rival, or even surpass, some of the Celestial Spirit Dao Fruits.

It represented a major expansion and victory for the Puchen Pure Land’s Buddhist Dharma within the Taihua Spirit Ruins Realm. Furthermore, it was the core objective of their strategy to spread the Dharma eastward.

Now, with the reception of the Fruit Position imminent, the fact that the Great Virtuous Ming King Fighting Buddha Scripture cultivated by his Clone Wukong was resonating with it was a matter of utmost importance.

The Ritual was now complete. This was the critical moment for the Fruit Position to truly descend, imprint itself upon the Eastern Wilderness of Taihua, and become the core of the land’s Dao Principles.

Once the King Buddha Fruit Position was planted, the Eastern Wilderness would transform into an Earthly Buddha Country. From then on, any hidden Fruit Positions that appeared in the Eastern Wilderness would naturally fall into the hands of the Puchen Pure Land first.

And Clone Wukong, as an Innate Spirit born from a Stone Embryo who cultivated the Great Virtuous Ming King Fighting Buddha Scripture, was the most perfect, predetermined vessel and point of fusion for this Fruit Position.

Through his Strong Control Attribute, Xu Yunfan could feel his clone answering a powerful summons.

The Puchen Pure Land’s attention must be completely focused on this event.

Once the Fruit Position was attained, it would likely give rise to another Great Bodhisattva. However, the Puchen Pure Land had been patiently holding back, because they knew that the moment they established the Fruit Position and raised their Earthly Buddha Country in the Eastern Wilderness, the Wansheng Sword Sect and the Primordial Sect would never sit idly by.

The reasoning was simple.

If the Puchen Pure Land were allowed to successfully anchor this Fruit Position in the Eastern Wilderness and establish an "Earthly Buddha Country" spanning a vast territory, it would be like driving an unprecedented wedge into the core border region between the territories of the Primordial Sect and the Wansheng Sword Sect.

This would represent a deep encroachment and a projection of the Buddhist Sect’s power into the Taihua Spirit Ruins Realm.
