Chapter 1700 (Raw 1712): Heart of Innocence

The group of six entered the temple and immediately felt a cold and sinister aura, so they quickly circulated their energy to resist it .

The young cat-eared girl leading the way turned her head back and looked at Xiao Chen . “Don’t feel that it is strange . When the Old Master was still alive, this temple was managed by us Fiendish Demons . Following his will, we test the disciples that come in here to seek fortuitous encounters . Those who can pass will gain all sorts of benefits . ”

“Old Master? Who is this Old Master?” Xiao Chen asked cautiously .

The young cat-eared girl raised her head and said, “That would be the Divine Vein powerhouse that you all speak of . Although he did not create this world, when he subdued this patch of Fiendish Demon Battlefield, he naturally became the master of all the Fiendish Demons . Even if it has been tens of thousands of years since he passed away, the will he left still influences this world . No Fiendish Demon would dare to disobey it .

“It is just like the rules that need to be followed . The Fiendish Demons that do not obey will be struck to death by heavenly lightning without exception . ”

On hearing this, Wang Ce could not help relaxing considerably . It turned out that these Fiendish Demons were bound by restrictions as well .

So, Wang Ce smiled faintly . “I understand . However, what I don’t understand is that Fiendish Demons are mostly berserk and see us sect disciples as enemies . Why do you give off the feeling that you are not a regular Fiendish Demon? Furthermore, you say that all the Fiendish Demons in this place are like you?”

The cat-eared girl looked at Wang Ce with a strange expression . Then, she replied coldly, “To us Fiendish Demons, you sect disciples are mostly berserk, killing Fiendish Demons without any mercy . Every time, there would be sect disciples who lack judgment or are greedy dying in this Buddha Seeking Platform . ” 

Wang Ce immediately felt embarrassed . “Pretend that I never asked . ”

“Every hall and room is guarded by Fiendish Demons . You just need to pass the test, and you can enter . Whether you can obtain the treasures in the halls will depend on yourself . ”

After the young cat-eared girl finished, her figure bounced up and leaped over a few tall walls, disappearing from the group’s eyes .

As Xiao Chen watched the young cat-eared girl leave, he carefully thought about what she said .

Wang Ce said, “It looks like this place is not as we thought . It is not as dangerous as it is said . Young Master Xiao, how about we split up?”

Seeing that this temple was not as scary as rumored, Wang Ce and the others immediately had other plans . They were no longer willing to continue traveling with Xiao Chen .

Xiao Chen said magnanimously, “As you wish . ”

“Goodbye . ”

Wang Ce’s group of four revealed faint smiles, quickly charging in with anticipation .

“Senior Brother, where are we going?”

“Of course, it is the Wisdom Hall . We have to be fast . Otherwise, when more people come later, we won’t get many benefits . ”

“Damn it! If we had known that this temple had such rules, we would not have bowed down to Xiao Chen and accepted a split like seventy-thirty . Who does he think he is? To think that he even lectured me on how to cultivate righteous Qi . ”

Feeling regret, Wang Ce could not help an enraged expression appearing on his face . As he thought about what Xiao Chen said to him, he appeared upset .

---

Only Xiao Chen and Yang Qing remained . She asked, “Young Master Xiao, what do you want to do at this Buddha Seeking Platform?”

Xiao Chen answered honestly, “To achieve enlightenment . I have no need for Wisdom Tea or other Medicinal Pills . I originally thought that this was an ancient Buddhist sect holy land . Now, it looks like I was wrong . What about you?”

Yang Qing paused for a moment before saying, “I’m here to retrieve something . Now that we are here, it is time to split up . ”

Xiao Chen did not question any further . Everyone had their own secrets . Hence, he nodded and said, “Let’s separate here, then . ”

Yang Qing looked at Xiao Chen and smiled bitterly in her heart before taking off .

Seeing the other party leave, Xiao Chen entered deep thought . Along the way, he did not seem to have done much for her; he was pretty much useless to her .

Given this, this woman did indeed not have any disloyalty to Xiao Chen . In fact, she could have come alone, and it would not have been a problem . She just wanted to help Xiao Chen and lead him over . However, she did not expect that Xiao Chen’s strength was so astonishing .

Since Xiao Chen did not need Yang Qing’s help at all, there was no more need for the original plan .

Now that the two arrived at their destination, they each had things that they had to do; hence, it was time for them to split up .

As Xiao Chen held the Buddhist prayer beads, he meandered around the temple . The doors to the halls representing fortuitous encounters were all tightly shut . He tried checking with his Spiritual Sense, but it was ruthlessly repelled, an impenetrable force protecting the halls .  

When one pushed open the doors and defeated the Fiendish Demons guarding the place, one could search it as they pleased . Of course, some of the halls might have other tests aside from the Fiendish Demon guards .

Xiao Chen did not care about any of this . His original purpose was to seek out a fate with Buddhism, to see if he could find anything that could aid him with the Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique .

This was a temple that was actually changed into something with such utility . Furthermore, with Fiendish Demons staying in it, Xiao Chen did not feel that it would have anything with a fate with Buddhism .  

Even if there was, that item would have been tainted by the world and the filth of the human heart . Hence, Xiao Chen did not have any thoughts of opening any of the hall doors .

However, it did not matter . After all, before he arrived here, he already reaped a bountiful and unexpected harvest . With the aid of those rare plants, his Buddha-like heart had already grown stronger than before . His Veritable Essence Energy also received another round of cleansing from the White Jasmine Flowers .

Xiao Chen even obtained the even more precious Earthen Fire Golden Lotus . No matter what, he did not make any losses .

He casually fiddled with the Buddhist Śarīra Pearls as he wandered around this old, dilapidated, sinister, gloomy temple . This brought out a certain mental state .

His heart remained calm . His body gave off an invisible light of a Buddhist nature . Vaguely, he formed an indistinct connection with the ancient aura of the temple .

Xiao Chen himself did not feel anything special after seeing everything . Aside from cold, sinister, and dilapidated, all he noticed was the peace of the Buddhist sect .

“Heart of innocence?”

Under the hazy moonlight, the young cat-eared girl sitting on the roof revealed a shocked expression as she looked in Xiao Chen’s direction .

“Flap! Flap!”

Just at this moment, a black bird flew over and landed on the young cat-eared girl’s arm .

Another person had arrived .

The young cat-eared girl’s figure flashed, and the huge temple gates suddenly opened . As if she appeared from nowhere, she walked out .

There were many people outside . However, two bald monks led the group . The young cat-eared girl’s gaze swept across and landed on the monk on the left .

This was Zhen Xuan, who had already treated his injuries .

The appearance of the young cat-eared girl caused a commotion . The many sect disciples behind whispered to each other . Like Xiao Chen and Wang Ce, they were confused .

However, the crowd did not rashly ask anything . The reason was none other than…Zhen Xuan standing in front . Who dared to interject with him around? That would just be seeking death .  

“You must be here to seek out fortuitous encounters . Come with me, then . ”

Seeing the young cat-eared girl turn around, Yan Feng asked in a whisper, “Senior Brother, what’s going on?”

Zhen Xuan’s expression did not change . He merely said indifferently, “We will find out after we go in and take a look . ”

After saying that, Zhen Xuan took a large stride forward and entered the temple . The many sect disciples behind followed quickly, not wanting to be left behind .

The words that were said to Xiao Chen’s group were repeated . This left the sect disciples exchanging looks with each other . Then, they burst out in joy . With that, the young cat-eared girl turned and left .

“Wait a moment!”

Zhen Xuan, who had been silent, suddenly said something, sounding somewhat hostile, his gaze fixed on the young cat-eared girl .

Right after Zhen Xuan spoke, he sent out invisible Buddhist Might . Suddenly, everyone felt intense pressure .

“You have a question?”

Zhen Xuan demanded coldly, “Did you meet a white-clad bladesman? There is also a young girl in her prime who appears chilly . ”

“This is a question I should not be answering, nor is it something you should be concerned about . ” The young cat-eared girl’s expression did not change as she replied softly .

Zhen Xuan snorted coldly . “Interesting . This is a holy land of my Buddhist sect, and a lowly Fiendish Demon like you really takes yourself to be its master . ”

“Whoosh!”

Right after Zhen Xuan spoke, he unleashed in one breath the killing move that he had been building up in his hand .

His hand formed a claw, and the fingers immediately appeared like they were dyed with golden light, looking metallic . His figure flashed, and a divine eagle bathed in Buddhist light flew up while spreading its wings .

Zhen Xuan was as quick as lightning, not even leaving an afterimage . He charged in front of the cat-eared girl and prepared to grab her .

Who knew, despite this absolutely infallible, lightning-quick attack, Zhen Xuan merely grabbed air . The young cat-eared girl turned into a small white cat and dodged nimbly .

Then, the white cat leaped up gently and landed adroitly on the roof . She turned her head back to look at Zhen Xuan before leaping again, vanishing from the crowd’s eyes .

Zhen Xuan dismissed his technique, feeling depressed . Then, he waved his hand and said, “Little evil creature, consider yourself lucky that you ran fast!”
