Chapter 638 - Twelfth-level Bodhi Lotus Sutra, the Chaos Physique Inside the Slumbering Emperor Coffin
Chapter 638: Twelfth-level Bodhi Lotus Sutra, the Chaos Physique Inside the Slumbering Emperor Coffin
Inside the Slumbering Emperor Coffin, Chu Kuangren had obtained an Opportunity of Fortune, the Emperor Scripture called Bodhi Lotus Sutra. After gaining complete insight from it, he straight away began cultivating it.
Amongst all the murky chaotic haze, Chu Kuangren sat cross-legged as his spiritual power and Emperor qi circulated in him. With that, the level of Bodhi Lotus Sutra increased rapidly.
An additional golden lotus altar suddenly appeared inside his spiritual mound. A tiny man sat atop that lotus altar.
This tiny man was none other than Chu Kuangren’s soul.
Golden rays of light swirled around the lotus altar, and there were a total of eight petals, which had incredibly mysterious Daoist Rhymes flowing in them.
Eight petals symbolized that his cultivation of the Bodhi Lotus Sutra had already reached the eighth level. This was also the highest realm that he could cultivate until at his current power level.
The ninth level would require him to reach the Emperor Realm beforehand.
“Only those at the Emperor Realm could reach the ninth level, but to venture further, one would need at least the tenth level. This is well beyond your ordinary difficulty.”
“But am I an ordinary person?”
A bright glint flashed across Chu Kuangren’s eyes.
If it were any other location, he might have had no other choice but to throw in the towel at this stage.
However, he was now inside the great Slumbering Emperor Coffin, and surrounding him were boundless Chaotic qi!
These Chaotic qis could be harnessed and converted into energy of any element attribute.
Similarly, Chu Kuangren possessed the Universal Cauldron Physique. As such, he could rapidly absorb and refine these Chaotic qis to turn them into the soul energy he needed to cultivate the Bodhi Lotus Sutra!
“Break down, and let me refine!!”
Chu Kuangren tuned his Universal Cauldron Physique to the maximum power.
In the blink of an eye, a quake was sent through to the entire place around him, and then boundless Chaotic qis surged toward Chu Kuangren’s direction frantically.
Chaotic qi was a scarce treasure in this world. Even one strand alone could make countless Sovereigns bend head over heels and fight each other to death for it.
Yet now, Chaotic qi surged toward Chu Kuangren from all directions. There were up to hundreds of thousands of them, and the sight was just majestic!
Boom!
The moment the Chaotic qis touched Chu Kuangren’s flesh body, his body trembled violently. The Universal Cauldron Physique could indeed refine Chaotic qi swiftly, but there were way too many of them right now!!
There were so many that even Chu Kuangren’s insane physical strength could not endure the horrific force that was produced when this sheer amount of energy surged into his body. He only survived because it was him. If it were any other cultivators, they would surely have been reduced to smithereens!
“Aside from the Universal Cauldron Physique, I also have this Immortal Body!”
His Immortal Body was then activated!
Two almighty God-tier physiques were called into action simultaneously, helping Chu Kuangren cultivate this Bodhi Lotus Sutra.
Very soon, the golden lotus altar in his spiritual mound and his soul got an immense injection of soul energy from all that Chaotic qi. In an instant, they became stronger!
The Daoist Rhymes gradually amalgamated into real substance at the golden lotus altar, turning into mysterious Dao patterns that emanated a peculiar energy wave.
The ninth petal was thus formed!
The Bodhi Lotus Sutra’s ninth level has been successfully cultivated!
Nonetheless, Chu Kuangren did not stop because of that. The Chaotic qi all around him continued surging in his direction to get refined.
This Chaotic qi inside this Slumbering Emperor Coffin could be regarded as boundless. With the Universal Cauldron Physique, Chu Kuangren would never once let go of this opportunity to capitalize on it.
The tenth petal and even the eleventh one also began to manifest…
Time passed by quickly within all that Chaos.
Chu Kuangren did not know how long he had been doing this or how much Chaotic qi he had refined. All he had on his mind currently was to cultivate the Bodhi Lotus Sutra.
Until one day.
Chu Kuangren abruptly opened his eyes.
A golden flash of brilliance shone from his body, manifesting into an apparition that sat atop the twelve-leveled golden lotus altar.
That apparition looked exactly the same as Chu Kuangren, but he looked rather solemn, just like a Buddha, who could not be tainted.
This was the Bodhi Soul that Chu Kuangren had cultivated till the twelfth level!
Dazzling Buddhist Lights coursed through the Bodhi Soul and illuminated the Chaos within. Countless Chaotic qi backed away upon meeting with that light, and those eerie, bizarre Ethereal Whispers could no longer have any influence on Chu Kuangren.
In the deepest reaches of the Slumbering Emperor Coffin, an enormous face suddenly opened its eyes and glanced toward the far side in astonishment. “This energy… What has happened? What is that little man trying to do?!”
…
“Twelfth-level Bodhi Lotus Sutra… I bet even an Emperor’s soul would be a far cry away from mine now, right?” Chu Kuangren muttered to himself.
A person’s soul would already be comparable to an Emperor’s after attaining the Ninth-level Bodhi Lotus Sutra. Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren here had cultivated all the way up to the twelfth level in one go!
It was the highest level of the Bodhi Lotus Sutra!
If this Lotus Sutra had more than twelve levels, Chu Kuangren would very likely cultivate it to greater heights by utilizing these boundless Chaotic qis.
“My trip here is fruitful after all!”
Chu Kuangren withdrew his Bodhi Soul and retracted the sky full of Buddhist Light.
There was a satisfied smile etched on his face.
Just these twelve levels of Bodhi Lotus Sutra alone was already quite a good fortune. It was even more impressive than his feat of ascending to the Emperor Mountain’s peak and becoming an Emperor. After all, not even an Emperor would possess soul energy as incredible as his now.
“I wonder what other secrets lie within the deep reaches of this Slumbering Emperor Coffin. It’s really beginning to pique my curiosity.”
Chu Kuangren stashed away the golden corpse in front of him.
This corpse was obviously a formidable Buddhist Emperor when he was still alive. Since Chu Kuangren obtained the Bodhi Lotus Sutra from him, he could not stand and watch as the corpse lay here, eroded by the Chaotic qis.
Chu Kuangren walked deeper into the Slumbering Emperor Coffin.
The Ethereal Whispers became increasingly frequent, and its energy bursts became increasingly powerful as well. At the very end of the road, even an Emperor would find it difficult to sustain this immense force that the Ethereal Whispers had on their souls.
Nevertheless, Chu Kuangren walked on leisurely, completely unaffected.
The twelfth-level Bodhi Soul was way too strong. There were probably only less than a handful of soul techniques that could cause any remote effect on it.
Slowly, Chu Kuangren noticed a bizarre crimson illumination that suddenly appeared a distance away. Upon a closer look, that crimson illumination was surprisingly formed from four crimson light beams, and amongst one of those light beams was a person!
It was a man dressed in white.
That man had extremely handsome looks, but both his eyes were closed. He looked like he was in a deep slumber. That four crimson light beams were each bound to the man’s four limbs respectively, locking him firmly in mid-air.
What shocked Chu Kuangren more was that although this man seemed to be in deep sleep, his body still emanated an incredibly terrifying domineering aura. That aura had a level of strength that Chu Kuangren had never seen before!
Not only that, but one or two clouds of grayish mist would occasionally seep out from the man’s body, which would then fuse into that boundless Chaotic mist surrounding them.
It turned out that this seemingly endless Chaotic qi originated from this man’s body!
How scary was this guy really?!
Chu Kuangren was a little startled. Hence, he activated his Eye of Revelation to hastily check for this mysterious man’s information.
“Chaos Daoist Celestial, owner of the Chaos Physique, Daoist Celestial cultivation realm… Current state, sealed. Spiritual consciousness and willpower eroding away at the present…”
It took quite some effort for Chu Kuangren to search for this man’s information using his Eye of Revelation. This man’s rank was just way too superior to his. Even that tiny bit of information that he managed to get was enough to put him in deep thought.
“Chaos Physique is the number one Supreme Daoist Physique of the Three-Thousand Physiques, but what the hell is this Daoist Celestial Realm?? An Immortal?”
“It says that his soul is in the midst of getting eroded… by these four crimson light beams?”
Chu Kuangren stared at those four crimson light beams and had a good probe at them. All of a sudden, he felt a surge of incredibly vengeful wrath, as if millions of loving beings were howling in agony in front of him right now.
