Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 1760: Chapter 1799: The Moon Palace’s Entrustment

However, the next moment, he decisively dismissed this notion.

Just then Jiang Fan continued to speak: ”It’s lamentable that the Heavenly Listening Bodhisattva entered nirvana, leaving his disciples uncared for.”

”He saved all beings, yet couldn’t save his own disciples.”

Isn’t this a slap to the face of the Buddha Country?

And in front of so many people in the Heavenly State!

He immediately understood that Jiang Fan was demanding benefits for the Pingtian Bodhisattva.

Looking at Pingtian Bodhisattva, he saw that his qualifications were quite good, having attained the Bodhisattva Realm through his own enlightenment, and thus he suppressed his annoyance.

He clasped his hands together and said: ”Amitabha, Master Jiang, you exaggerate.”

”Under heaven, the Buddhist path is a single family; the disciples of the Heavenly Listening Bodhisattva are also disciples of our Buddha Country.”

”The White Horse Temple has contributed to this battle, thus Pingtian Bodhisattva is specially granted the position of one of the eighteen protectors of the Buddha Country, to enter our Buddha Country and listen to the Buddhist path.”

”Come with me.”

This was an invitation for Pingtian Bodhisattva to join the Buddha Country and be given a significant role.

The Buddha Country is the strongest Buddhist power in Central Earth, making it difficult for Pingtian Bodhisattva to not advance in the Buddhist path.

Pingtian Bodhisattva clasped his hands together: ”I humbly accept the command of the Buddha Venerate.”

He then discreetly gave Jiang Fan a grateful look and followed the Ancient Zen Buddha Venerable away.

Leng Yue Sage and Thunder Annihilation Sage, seeing the situation was unfavorable, began to phase out, preparing to depart.

”Please wait, two seniors!”

”Haven’t I started the introduction yet? Why are you leaving?”

The corners of Leng Yue Sage and Thunder Annihilation Sage’s mouths twitched, thinking he was extorting them, yet they had no choice but to come back under everyone’s watchful eyes.

Leng Yue Sage said: ”What do you mean leaving? There is an urgent matter at the Moon Palace, I must rush back.”

Jiang Fan replied: ”That’s alright.”

Then he summoned the soul of Liang Feiyan and the stone tablet of Jiang Wuya, with a look of sorrow once more on his face:

”Senior, this is Jiang Wuya of our Taicang State, at the Divinity Transformation Realm, who perished with the Ancient Giant following the will of the Tribulation Sage.”

”The old friend of Misfortune Sage has withered, leaving his successor a remnant soul, uncared for.”

”And then there’s Liang Feiyan, who used his head to block the enemy’s bronze chariot to resist the Ancient Giant, now reduced to a remnant soul, a tragic tale indeed.”

Leng Yue Sage felt like coughing up blood.

Was Misfortune Sage’s old friend only her? Why not ask someone else?

And what was this about using his head to block a bronze chariot?

She really didn’t want to deal with Jiang Fan, but considering she might need Jiang Fan’s alchemy in the future,

she could only pinch her nose and say: ”Since they sacrificed for the Ancient Giant, I’ll give them two seeds.”

With a flip of her palm, two large seeds, the size of a fist and resembling embryos, appeared.

”With the irrigation of Divinity Transformation Blood, a fleshy body of the Nascent Soul Realm can grow in a month.”

Nascent Soul Realm, huh?

Jiang Fan was greatly disappointed.

Liang Feiyan might be fine as his soul was already at the Nascent Soul Realm, but Jiang Wuya was a soul at the Divinity Transformation Realm.

Possessing a Divinity Transformation Realm body would be more suitable.

Suddenly, Jiang Fan touched his chin and asked: ”What if I use the Blood of the Sage for irrigation?”

He recently acquired quite a lot of sage bodies and the blood seemed endless.

Leng Yue Sage scoffed, ”Which sage would irrigate you for a month...”

She suddenly stopped and nearly forgot Jiang Fan had slain the Compassionate Sage.

She instantly felt displeased; even the Moon Palace hadn’t indulged in using the Blood of the Sage to nurture seeds.

Who is helping whom here?

Seeing her intention to go back on her word, Jiang Fan quickly grabbed the seeds and said: ”Thank you, senior, take care.”

Leng Yue Sage sneered, flipped her sleeve, and phased out.

Finally, Jiang Fan looked towards Thunder Annihilation Sage and gestured for someone in the palace.

The latter felt a headache and waved his hand: ”No need to call them, I’ll give you some Thunder Power, you distribute it yourself.”

He accepted his fate.

After all, even the experienced Ancient Zen Buddha Venerable, renowned for soliciting fate, was countered by Jiang Fan, what else could he do?

Immediately, he brought out an incredibly solid Thunder Mountain.

The Thunder Power it contained was more than the sum he had ever obtained.

”Take it.”

Thunder Annihilation Sage dropped the Thunder Mountain, silently cursed his bad luck, and quickly phased out.

Jiang Fan was overjoyed.

With so much Thunder Power, he could cultivate the Void Flowing Thunder Force well.

He stored the Thunder Mountain with a smile on his face.

The Sages of the Heavenly State are truly generous!

He wondered if there were any other sages in the Heavenly State; if so, he’d lead everyone from Taicang State to... spread warmth.

”Brother Jiang, in my next life, I’ll reincarnate as a beauty to repay you.”

Liang Feiyan gratefully hugged Jiang Fan.

Jiang Fan disdainfully flicked his soul away and took out two bottles of Blood of the Sage.

One full, one half-full.

He tossed the full one to Jiang Wuya, saying: ”Brother Jiang, if the Blood of the Sage isn’t enough, come to me.”

He tossed the half-full one to Liang Feiyan: ”Be careful, if the body you nurture is too high level, your soul might not match for possession.”

Liang Feiyan, holding the jade bottle and the seed, joyfully said: ”Don’t worry, I know my limits.”

”A body nurtured with Blood of the Sage will be extraordinary; a Nascent Soul Realm body is enough for me!”

Jiang Fan pondered.

Truly, a body that absorbs Blood of the Sage to grow, even if only at the Nascent Soul Realm level, might be quite impressive?

I should have asked Leng Yue Sage for a few more seeds.

Alas, too hasty.

The alchemy incident calmed, Jiang Fan saluted towards the Qintian Bureau direction, saying: ”Thank you for the help during the Great Wine Sacrifice.”

If it weren’t for him speaking, facing solicitations from four sages could have been unavoidable for him.

Especially the Ancient Zen Buddha Venerable, whose oppressive presence was comparable to the Six Sun Giant Emperor.

From within the Qintian Bureau, a snort was heard: ”Prepare well, the Merit Conference is at dawn!”

Jiang Fan straightened up.

He saluted and flew back to the palace, not having time to explain to everyone, heading straight into the palace.

He hadn’t forgotten, there’s still a Dragon and Phoenix Divine Gallbladder in the palace.

Upon returning, the Dragon and Phoenix Divine Gallbladder obediently remained suppressed by the Five Magnetic Divine Light, which he easily retrieved.

Just as he was about to find Gong Caiyi.

Suddenly, an old woman’s figure materialized from a phase around him.

It was the returning Leng Yue Sage.

Jiang Fan cautiously asked: ”Senior, do you have any instructions?”

This wasn’t in front of all the experts of the Heavenly State, where the sages would be cautious.

Now in private, who knows what she might do.

Leng Yue Sage snorted: ”Why, you also feel guilty?”

”Soliciting from sages, how audacious!”

Speaking, she took out a moon-shaped token and tossed it to Jiang Fan: ”Take it.”

Jiang Fan instinctively caught it and asked: ”Senior, what is this?”

Leng Yue Sage said: ”It’s the token of the candidate for the Moon Palace Master.”

What?

Candidate for the Palace Master?

Jiang Fan was shocked: ”Senior, why give this to me?”

Leng Yue Sage said: ”I’m running out of longevity, and Moon Venerate has not achieved the Heavenly Human Five Declines as planned, missing this Merit and lacking the Wise Man Realm.”

”I must plan for the Moon Palace’s future.”

”As the husband of Moon Venerate’s body, you are considered a part of the Moon Palace; should I fall one day, and the Moon Palace lacks a sage to oversee it.”

”I hope you could manage the Moon Palace’s affairs.”

What?

Jiang Fan was stunned: ”Senior, this is too sudden; we’ve just met.”

Leng Yue Sage gazed at Jiang Fan, saying: ”Indeed this is your first time seeing me.”

”But, I have secretly observed you for a long time.”

”Otherwise, why do you think, after Moon Venerate returned to the Moon Palace, no one came to trouble you, her nominal husband?”
