Chapter 1940: ‘Mercy’ of the Buddhist Sect

Translator: Lordbluefire  Editor: Lordbluefire

Qin Heavenly Divine Sect, Qin Wentian also knew that his act of destroying the Divine Ox Clan would cause the other hegemonic powers in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms to feel fear in their hearts. After the Divine Ox Clan was destroyed, he has been monitoring the situation in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms with vigilance.

Although the strength the Heaven Vault possesses is now considered sufficiently strong, Qin Wentian didn’t feel that it was so strong to the extent where it could be invincible under the sky. If the other hegemonic powers could discard all their selfish thoughts and ally together against him, the strength the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect had now was still not enough. After all, the entire might of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms is simply too powerful.

However, the other parties also had trepidation and wouldn’t dare to make any reckless moves. In addition, between the various hegemonic powers, it’s not going to be so easy to form an alliance as they would always have selfish motives. For example, in the battle at the Qin Clan back then, many hegemonic powers simply chose to sit on the fence to watch neutrally. Only when something concerned their benefits would they act. When the multiple heavenly deities of the Qin Clan died back then, they were more than willing to stand aside and watch. No one had interfered.

Qin Wentian, who was waiting for news, didn’t receive any information that the other hegemonic powers banded together. In fact, the information he received was that many deities of the various hegemonic powers actually headed to the same location at the same time. They went to the Universe Region.

Within the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect, the Qiankun Sect Leader and Nine Heavens Mystical Maiden met with Qin Wentian. The three of them sat in a pavilion.

“You should have received some news already?” The Qiankun Sect Leader spoke to Qin Wentian.

“Mhm.” Qin Wentian nodded his head lightly.

“In truth, after we formed our alliance and entered the Heaven Vault for cultivation. There has always been a certain power that stood at the side, not interfering. I believe you must have already noticed this. Right now, many heavenly deities all went to the Buddhist Sect in the Universe Region to pay them a visit.” The eyes of the Qiankun Sect Leader flashed with worry. During these years, cultivation in the Heaven Vault allowed many experts in the Qiankun Sect to have great improvements. There were even people who started to attempt breaking through to the heavenly deity realm. With such a good cultivation environment, the Qiankun Sect naturally hoped that they would always be able to enter it. Hence, they protected Qin Wentian back then. It wasn’t because of friendship, it was because of mutual benefits.

The Heaven Vault was able to allow the Qiankun Sect to grow stronger. When more time passed, the Qiankun Sect would be able to become one of the pinnacle-level hegemonic powers in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.

The Qiankun Sect Leader also hoped that the Qiankun Sect would be able to grow to the same extent as the Pureland of Bliss, able to exist forever. The Pureland of Bliss was so strong to a point where no other person or power could shake them.

“Would the Buddhist Sect interfere?” Qin Wentian asked.

“The Heaven Vault is a place where no hegemonic powers can afford to ignore. Although the Pureland of Bliss that’s the western world is already strong enough, who would be able to reject the prospect of growing stronger?” The Qiankun Sect Leader sighed. He then continued, “The Pureland of Bliss is an extremely terrifying power. They might not have interfered back then but no one knows what they are actually thinking about in their hearts.”

“They are able to exist for countless years and is more ancient compared to any other hegemonic powers in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. What they depended wasn’t ‘mercy,’ and standing aloof from the world, not competing in seizing power. They depended on incomparable strength, so strong that nothing could shake them.” The mystical maiden calmly spoke. This point, even if she didn’t state it, Qin Wentian also understood it clearly.

Under the nine heavenly layers, in the world of stellar martial cultivators, strength was the root of everything.

The Pureland of Bliss that was the western world had existed even before the eight great regions of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms were divided. They had lasted up until now and no one in history has ever managed to shake their position before. The other hegemonic powers in the other seven great regions have changed with time, but the Pureland of Bliss was one that dominated the western Universe Region completely. Even all the particle worlds around there, and the immortal realms they controlled, all were united in their faith of the buddhist path.

Back then, the Qiankun Sect Leader has conversed with Qin Wentian before. If there were still godkings in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, it was highly possible that they existed in the western world.

“In that case, what would happen if the western world interferes?” Qin Wentian glanced at the two of them.

“It would be hard for us to maintain control of the Heaven Vault.” The Qiankun Sect Leader directly spoke. He was the leader of a hegemonic power in the Heaven Region and now, he was also allies with Qin Wentian. Yet, he still said such a thing. This wasn’t deliberately undervaluing their strengths. Rather, it was because he deeply knew how terrifying the western world could be. That mysterious power had foundations far stronger and deeper compared to any other powers in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.

If the western world wasn’t strong, why would the heavenly deities of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms head there to pay the Pureland of Bliss a visit? Clearly, they wanted to borrow the aid of the Buddhist Sect to deal with the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect.

“Do you have any suggestions?” Qin Wentian spoke after being silent for some time.

The Qiankun Sect Leader exchanged a mutual glance with the mystical maiden. Their eyes were filled with worry. The Qiankun Sect Leader then spoke, “If people from the western world head over to the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect, you can choose to compromise to some extent, allowing cultivators from the western world to enter the Heaven Vault freely.”

Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed when he heard the Qiankun Sect Leader’s words. Given the attitudes of his two allies, it was clear they felt a great amount of fear towards the western world. In order to prevent a conflict between them and the western world, they preferred him to compromise instead. If the people of the western world came, they wanted Qin Wentian to allow people from the western world to cultivate in the Heaven Vault.

But this went contrary to the style in which Qin Wentian does things. He said before he would only allow those whom he wanted to allow, into the Heaven Vault for cultivation. There was no need to say anything about the Luoshen Clan. The Demon God Mountain also had friendship with him while the Qiankun Sect and Nine Heavens Mystical Palace were his allies, they stood by his side when he went alone to the Qin Clan back then.

But for the Buddhist Sect…That would have to depend on whether the experts of the western world interfered or not. If they interfered, what attitudes would they have when facing him?

“Saint Lord.” At this moment, a voice drifted over. It was Qi Yu.

“Uncle Yu, what’s the matter?” Qin Wentian asked.

“Outside the divine sect, a heavenly deity from the western world is here to pay a visit.” Qi Yu spoke. Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed. He didn’t expect that the other party would appear in the midst of their discussion about this matter. How swift.

The three of them exchanged mutual glances. After that, Qin Wentian’s divine sense extended outwards, instantly enveloping this boundless region. His divine sense quickly reached the sea region outside the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect. A figure could be seen floating there, quietly standing. His entire body radiated an incomparable tranquility, like he was the embodiment of peace and harmony, not someone of the mortal world.

“Seven Abstinences.” Qin Wentian’s eyes gleamed. The reverend here to pay a visit was actually Seven Abstinences who entered the world of reincarnation alongside with him. This man’s talent was extraordinarily high. After all of them exited the world of reincarnation, he was the first person to break through to the heavenly deity realm.

And now, the Buddhist Sect actually sent him here to pay a visit.

“Reverend Seven Abstinences came all the way here. Please come in for a seat.” Qin Wentian’s divine sense transmitted his voice. Seven Abstinences pressed his palms together and nodded in Qin Wentian’s direction. After that, he flew towards that direction.

The Qiankun Sect Leader and Mystical Maiden didn’t leave. Qin Wentian told them to stay for a listen, and see what the attitude of the western world was.

After some time, Reverend Seven Abstinences arrived here. He was clad in buddhist robes, he clasped his hands, “Seven Abstinences pays my respects to the two seniors, Qiankun Sect Leader and Mystical Maiden.”

The Qiankun Sect Leader and Nine Heavens Mystical Maiden were peak characters of their hegemonic powers, they were of the elder generation. There was nothing wrong about them receiving respect from a junior.

The two of them nodded to Seven Abstinences to return the courtesy. Seven Abstinences then turned to Qin Wentian, “Benefactor Qin, after we parted that day, I didn’t expect Benefactor Qin to be able to have such accomplishments today. How truly rare.”

“Reverend praises me too much. Back then in the world of reincarnation, all of us have already seen Reverend’s glory. After that, Reverend is also the first person to enter the deity realm, indicating your talent. It has been so many years since we last met, I believe Reverend’s cultivation should also have reached great heights.” Qin Wentian smiled as he replied. “Reverend, please take a seat.”

“Many thanks.” Seven Abstinences nodded, he wasn’t overly polite and directly sat before Qin Wentian. He gazed at Qin Wentian, “I’m sure Benefactor Qin can guess at the reason for my visit here today.”

“I know something about it, but not everything. Would Reverend please guide me?” Qin Wentian smiled.

“Back then, Benefactor Qin solved the secret of the Heaven Vault and gained control of this sacred cultivation ground. Many experts in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms covet it as well, resulting in multiple deity-level battles and countless casualties. The Divine Ox Clan was actually annihilated completely. Earlier, several experts from the various hegemonic powers came to the western world to pay a visit to my master. They feel that if this matter isn’t resolved, there would only be greater storms in the immortal realms in the future and it’s unknown how many people would lose their lives as a result of the storms. My master also agreed with them, he knew that I have some fate with Benefactor Qin and hence, asked me to make a trip here.” Reverend Seven Abstinences slowly spoke.

Qin Wentian listened quietly. After that, he asked, “In that case, is the western world going to step out from their position of neutrality and interfere in matters regarding the Heaven Vault? I wonder how the Buddhist Sect is planning to resolve this?”

This was the main point.

What was the true purpose of the western world?

The Qiankun Sect Leader and Mystical Maiden turned their gazes to Seven Abstinences. Clearly, they also wanted to know very much.

“My master’s intention is to see if it’s possible to allow the Buddhist Sect to assume control of the Heaven Vault to prevent more disputes in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms from occurring because of this, resulting in unwanted chaos. After that, we will see if it’s possible to arrange experts from the various hegemonic powers to enter the Heaven Vault for cultivation.” Seven Abstinence’s voice was calm, like he was bemoaning the state of the universe and pitying the fate of mankind, like his heart was filled with compassion and mercy.

“In order to prevent disputes that would result in unwanted chaos?” Qin Wentian laughed after he heard Seven Abstinences’s words. He then replied, “The ‘mercy’ of the Senior in the Buddhist Sect makes me ‘impressed’ to the max.”

“It’s just that the Heaven Vault was obtained by me. I have Godking Xi’s inheritance and this place is something that belongs to I, Qin. If I hand this over to the Buddhist Sect, doesn’t Reverend feel that it is somewhat inappropriate?” Qin Wentian laughed. If the Buddhist Sect wanted to enter the Heaven Vault for cultivation, there was still room for negotiation. After all, there hasn’t been any conflicts between him and the Buddhist Sect up until now. He wouldn’t mind negotiating if it was about that.

However, what the Buddhist Sect wanted was for him to hand over full control of the Heaven Vault. The Buddhist Sect would be the one making the arrangements for those who wanted to enter the Heaven Vault for cultivation.

If that was the case, the fears of the other hegemonic powers in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms would be instantly resolved.

The Buddhist Sect was truly ‘merciful’ indeed!

“The Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms have already been calm for many years. If more disputes about this occur, I’m afraid that countless lives might be lost. Also, does Benefactor Qin really feel that you can contend against the joint forces of all the hegemonic powers in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms? By agreeing to our suggestion, it would be best for everyone in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.” Reverend Seven Abstinences calmly spoke, his tone was filled with tranquility like he was speaking of an extremely simple matter, for the greater good, for the sake of everyone in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.

Qin Wentian glanced at Seven Abstinences as a faint smile flickered in his eyes. Today, it could be said that he had gained a certain understanding of the Buddhist Sect in the western world. They had made a deep impression on him!
