Checking in for 100,000 Years

Chapter 1032: Chapter 1032: Black Water Demon

”Cang Ming, where did your Ninth Hall find such a freak?”

A calm male voice sounded from the rear of the Celestial Boat.

Everyone turned around.

They saw an old man in plain clothes, hands clasped behind his back, stepping through the void as he came.

This plain-clothed old man was skinny and bony, with sparse brows, a snake head and rat eyes, his appearance somewhat ferocious.

A string of dark red Buddha beads hung around his neck.

”Black Water Demon!”

The moment Cang Ming saw this person, his face immediately sank.

This Black Water Demon was at the Third Layer of God-Honored Realm, his cultivation base a minor realm higher than his.

This Black Water Demon was extremely powerful, infamous for his ferocity in earlier years, but in recent years, for some unknown reason, he had actually started studying Buddhist Law.

It left many people scratching their heads.

”Black Water Demon, what are you doing here?”

Cang Ming’s gaze tightened as he looked at the Black Water Demon approaching from afar, and asked calmly.

”The Ten Thousand Monster God Temple has been making such a big commotion, and for so long too. You think you can hide it from me? So I came over as well to see just what you guys have gained in this Yin Yang Cave.”

The Black Water Demon rubbed his Buddha beads, a benevolent smile appearing on his face, like a high monk who had attained the Dao many years ago.

”We’ve gained a little something of course, but as you can see, the Yin Yang Cave is fraught with peril. Our Ninth Hall has only explored up to this point; we still don’t know how far it is to the depths!”

Cang Ming said in a deep voice.

”Cang Ming, where did your Ninth Hall find this freak? What Cultivation Technique is he cultivating that he can actually deal with those Black Bug Waves?”

The Black Water Demon’s gaze fell on Ye Yun, and he asked with a kindly smile.

Cang Ming: ”...”

Cang Ming’s expression froze; he didn’t know how to answer.

Although Gu Anran could be considered his clanswoman, she did not belong to the Ten Thousand Monster God Temple.

And her senior brother had nothing to do with the Ten Thousand Monster God Temple at all.

He had made a move now purely for the sake of his junior sister.

”Cang Ming, what’s wrong? Cat got your tongue?”

The Black Water Demon chuckled.

”Black Water Demon, why aren’t you staying in your cave dwelling to study Buddhist Law properly? Why do you have to wade into the muddy waters of our Ten Thousand Monster God Temple?”

Cang Ming glared angrily.

”Hehe, I’m not the only one who came this time. Quite a few Divine Sovereign Realm experts have descended into the Yin Yang Cave. Who knows where they’re all wandering about right now?”

The Black Water Demon fondled his Buddha beads, smiling with narrowed eyes as he spoke.

”So many people came? That’s terrible!”

Cang Ming’s expression changed drastically, his face turning so dark it seemed water could drip from it.

Originally, their Ten Thousand Monster God Temple had planned to hog the benefits for themselves, but now that idea had gone up in smoke.

Now that the various major powers had entered the Yin Yang Cave to seize opportunities together with the Ten Thousand Monster God Temple...

The final outcome could only depend on one’s own means.

”Sigh!”

Cang Ming let out a sigh. He had been afraid this situation would appear, yet in the end, it still did.

This could only be blamed on the Yin Yang Cave being too dangerous, delaying them for too long, giving the other forces time to discover it.

”Palace Master Cang Ming, you don’t need to worry too much. With me here, no one will dare lay a hand on you...”

Looking at the Black Water Demon opposite him, Ye Yun said with a smile.

This Cang Ming was very likely to be his master. No matter what, Ye Yun couldn’t let others bully his master.

”You’re only at the True God Realm Third Level. Although your Cultivation Technique is miraculous, once it comes to a real fight, I’m afraid you’ll be powerless!”

Cang Ming sighed, forcing out a bitter smile.

”Little brother, the moment I saw you, I felt a sense of closeness. Seems you and I must be fated...”

The Black Water Demon looked at Ye Yun, smiling with squinted eyes.

”Is that so? I also feel you look kindly and compassionate. You must possess extremely profound attainments in Buddhist Law, a true enlightened master!”

Ye Yun said with a meaningful smile.

The moment the Black Water Demon appeared, he had recognized him.

This Black Water Demon’s true body was the Buddha Flame Root, one of Dragon Tree’s incarnations.

This incarnation’s cultivation base was at the Third Layer of God-Honored Realm.

In the past, most of the incarnations Dragon Tree Devourer had devoured were of the Divine King Realm, very few were God Venerable Realm.

His numerous incarnations were scattered throughout various parts of the Divine Land.

Back then, the Buddha Flame Old Ancestor had said that half of his incarnations had already begun to study the Buddhist Path.

This Black Water Demon before him wasn’t wearing monk robes, and judging by his level in Buddhist Law, he seemed to be just a half-baked novice.

”Hahahaha, little brother, your words are music to my ears!”

Hearing Ye Yun’s praise, the Black Water Demon felt lightheaded with delight and couldn’t help bursting into laughter.

”Senior brother, this Black Water Demon doesn’t seem to have good intentions?”

At the side, Gu Anran spoke in a low voice.

”It’s fine. I also learned a bit of Buddhist principles from your Sister Luo Ye. When the time comes I can have a nice talk with this Black Water Demon...”

Ye Yun said with a smile.

”Little brother, since you and I are fated, why don’t you come with this old man?

On the way, we can have a good chat and exchange some Buddhist Law. What do you say?”

The Black Water Demon laughed heartily, stretching out his hand to grab downward.

At the same time.

A terrifying Third Layer of God-Honored Realm Super Divine Dragon Breath fell like a tidal wave.

Most of the Ninth Hall’s disciples were at the God Monarch Realm and True God Realm. Under the pressure of this Super Divine Dragon Breath, they actually couldn’t move at all.

”Black Water Demon, what are you trying to do?”

Cang Ming roared furiously, drawing his Sword and preparing to charge up.

At this moment, a hand suddenly rested on his shoulder.

Cang Ming turned his head and saw Ye Yun grinning from ear to ear.

”Palace Master Cang Ming, I usually like to study Buddhist Law as well. Why don’t I go and exchange a few insights with him? There’s no need for you to worry!”

Ye Yun smiled faintly.

After saying that, he ignored the utterly shocked Cang Ming. In a flash, his body floated up and flew to the Black Water Demon’s side.

”This...”

Watching Ye Yun fly up next to the Black Water Demon, Cang Ming was so stunned he couldn’t speak.

Seeing Ye Yun fly over, the Black Water Demon was also taken aback.

He hadn’t expected this True God Realm young monk to be so bold as to take the initiative to fly over.

Could it be that this really was a kindred spirit?

”Daoist friend, there are too many people and too many prying eyes here. Why don’t we change locations to talk?”

Ye Yun blinked at him.

”Good... good!”

The Black Water Demon looked dumbfounded for a moment, then overjoyed, nodding repeatedly as he raised a gust of demon wind and instantly flew off into the distance.

”Gu Anran, the Black Water Demon’s reputation isn’t great. Your senior brother does have some skill, but once he’s used by that guy, his life might be forfeit...”

Cang Ming sighed.

Gu Anran’s ears twitched, and a smile appeared on her face.

Just now, her senior brother had sent her a voice transmission, telling her to have the Celestial Boat wait in place for a while.

Gu Anran quickly passed this message on to Cang Ming.

Cang Ming was helpless and could only follow Ye Yun’s instructions, keeping the Celestial Boat stationary here.

This area used to be the territory of the Black Bug Wave, but since the Black Beetles had all vanished, this place was extremely safe.

After just two or three breaths’ time...

A black gust of demon wind suddenly swept over from afar and stopped opposite the Celestial Boat.

The black wind dissipated, revealing two familiar figures.

It was Ye Yun and the Black Water Demon, who had gone and come back.

The Black Water Demon who reappeared now stood facing Ye Yun, but under the gaze of everyone, he actually showed a respectful expression.

”Back already?”

Cang Ming’s heart jolted at first, then he revealed a look of surprise.

Even the Black Water Demon, who had always been infamous for his cruelty, was actually this respectful toward Ye Yun. What on earth had happened in between?

Could it be that Ye Yun’s mastery of Buddhist Law had convinced the Black Water Demon?

”Black Water Demon, why have you come back?”

Afraid the Black Water Demon might be up to some scheme, Cang Ming looked wary as he asked in a deep voice.
