Chapter 1965 - Independent Spacetime

The Karma Buddha glanced at Qin Wentian, “Karma is when I planted a seed of karma around you, our fates are already destined to be interlinked, unable to be severed. Do you understand?”

“No?” Qin Wentian shook his head. The Karma Buddha smiled. “Once a seed of karma dao is planted, there would be a mysterious energy from the universe that would link everything together. Even if the person who has been planted with the seed of karma perishes, the seed of karma would still continue to survive. Not long ago, I went to the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect to plant a seed of karma. I planted the seed in the body of a young girl. But in truth, she wasn’t my true target. The karma I wanted, is for another person to enter my dao.”

“Has that person entered your dao?” Qin Wentian asked.

“Naturally.” The Karma Buddha nodded. “The dao of karma, how can it be severed so easily? Hence, because of karma, he would surely come to the western paradise and appear before me.”

“I still don’t understand.” Qin Wentian’s expression was calm.

“This isn’t your dao, you don’t need to understand it.” The Karma Buddha shook his head. “You only need to know that right now, you are already standing before me. That is already enough. This is karma.”

Qin Wentian’s expression didn’t change. He stared at the Karma Buddha as his features changed, reverting to his original appearance.

The Karma Buddha was very calm as well. The two of them simply looked at each other, like this was something that ought to happen. None of them felt any surprise.

“Back then, I once traced the karma link to an illusory figure. I should have already destroyed the karma seed linking me to you. How did you know it is me?” Qin Wentian asked? In truth, he could be sure that before he came here, the Karma Buddha didn’t know he came to the Universe Region. It was only after they met did the Karma Buddha recognize him. Back then after that illusory buddha figure was shattered by him, the Karma Buddha no longer had a way to spy on him.

“I already said this is karma.” The Karma Buddha calmly replied. “I didn’t expect you to be so impressive, able to silently come before me, hiding it from everyone else. Even your cultivation base was concealed, no one was able to see through it.”

“But didn’t you see through everything in the end?” Qin Wentian smiled.

“I have a question. The Bodhi Abbot, was he forced by you or did he help you out of his own choice?” The Karma Buddha asked.

“The Bodhi Abbot is a true buddha.” Qin Wentian touched the strings of buddha beads on his neck as he thought of the Bodhi Abbot, feeling some guilt about him.

“Understood.” The Karma Buddha stared at Qin Wentian. “How impressive, Benefactor Qin actually dared to barge into the western paradise alone.”

“Since you are the one who planted that karma, it’s about time to sever that karma.” Qin Wentian replied. Although he was discovered, he wasn’t startled at all. He was still as calm as ever. Such determination even caused the Karma Buddha to reveal a look of being impressed.

As expected of the young man with the most outstanding talent in the current Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.

“I wonder if Reverend understands other buddha daos other than the dao of karma?” Qin Wentian asked.

“Benefactor Qin, you want to discuss the dao with me?” The Karma Buddha pressed his palms together.

“Although the dao of karma is powerful, I wonder if it can be applicable to direct combat?” Qin Wentian spoke. His eyes turned terrifying, as vortexes appeared. In the depths of his eyes, there seemed to be another space within there. The monks around the Karma Buddha stared at this solemnly, powerful buddhic light radiated from them, extending outwards wanting to envelop Qin Wentian.

An invisible energy then flowed through space, time seemed to stop completely. At this moment, countless buddha cultivators from the buddha sects in the western paradise could sense this energy. Their gazes turned to a certain direction, many of their figures flashed as they prepared to head towards there.

But at this moment, the dao might from this particular energy was unleashed to the max. Those figures flying over simply stopped in mid-air. Their bodies were immobilized.

On the ground, the other buddhist cultivators also couldn’t move as well. All of them were forced into a state of stillness by that invisible energy.

This dao might continued to extend through the western paradise. The space and time in the western paradise both entered a state of stillness.

But a moment later, some of the buddhist cultivators managed to break free slightly as they moved. Those buddha cultivators who could move were all extremely powerful ancient buddhas.

A brilliant light radiated from one of them. That ancient buddha glanced at the surroundings before speaking a single world, “Break!”

As the sound of his voice faded, the power to still time was broken. Those immobilized bodies could move once again.

In the western paradise, the gazes of everyone turned into the distance. The direction of their gazes was naturally where the Karma Buddha and Qin Wentain were located. Evidently, they could sense that the origin of that earlier invisible energy came from there. To think that there was actually someone who managed to invade the western paradise and was even using a dao art to stop time.

It has been a long time since someone dared to act so brazenly in the western paradise. However, during these years, such a thing happened twice. This was simply unbelievable.

The first time was during the descent of the Grim Reaper. And now, it was because of Qin Wentian’s arrival. It’s rumored that Qin Wentian was the successor of the Grim Reaper, there were also people who said that he was the Grim Reaper’s disciple.

This master and disciple pair, what do they take the western paradise as? How brazen!

The holy ground of the Buddhist Sect in the western world. This was a place where the buddha dao hold sway. Did they think that they can come because they wanted to and leave simply because they wanted to?

Buddhic light flashed, illuminating the surroundings. There was a powerful buddha cultivator who activated his heavenly eye. His gaze could pierce through time and space and he could directly see what was happening.

“Benefactor Qin, good technique.” At this moment, the Karma Buddha praised. Qin Wentian was still looking at him, he didn’t care about the current changes in the surroundings, or care about the fact that his spacetime dao was broken through. This place was the western paradise after all, anything was possible.

Qin Wentian calmly spoke, “It’s time to sever this karma.”

As the sound of his voice faded, his gaze grew even more terrifying. Space and time collided with each other as the stars shifted position. This entire world seemed to sink within his eyes. In the next instant, a spacetime storm manifested, Qin Wentian and the Karma Buddha actually vanished together, like they have never existed before.

In an independent chaotic spacetime world, Qin Wentian and the Karma Buddha appeared. There was only the two of them in this place. Around them, terrifying spacetime storms roared angrily. This world was something created by Qin Wentian.

“Benefactor Qin, your methods are so frightening.” The Karma Buddha knew that he was brought into an independent space by Qin Wentian. Was this the reason why Qin Wentian dared to barge into the western paradise alone? His talent was truly shocking, even the Karma Buddha was shocked. Qin Wentian’s understanding of the dao grew deeper and deeper every time, showing his outstanding comprehension abilities.

“However, I still feel that Benefactor Qin’s act of coming to the western paradise isn’t an intelligent choice. Even if this karma is already fated.”

“When Reverend planted that seed of karma, Reverend’s fate was already decided in reality. Although the spacetime here is chaotic, but the timeflow ratio is stable, roughly a hundred times compared to the external world. To better put it, two hours might pass here, but only roughly the amount of time taken for half an incense stick to burn out would pass in the outside world. And for the time it takes for an incense stick to finish burning out in here, maybe only an instant would pass in the outside world.” Qin Wentian spoke. He could change the flow of time, this meant that Qin Wentian has ample time to settle the karma between them here.

This was his purpose in coming to the western paradise. Since he wanted to deal with the Karma Buddha, he naturally has to be prepared for the fact that his identity might be exposed. How can it be possible to silently finish off one of the buddha lords in the western paradise?

In truth, if it wasn’t for Qinxin being in danger, Qin Wentian would continue to endure and only take revenge in the future. However, he could no longer afford to wait. Since he had to come here no matter what, he had already made preparations for all possibilities.

If he wanted to sever the karma, there were only two ways. Either the Karma Buddha severed the threads of karma voluntarily, or someone has to kill him.

Hence, Qin Wentian acted. Resplendent world-purifying light was released, about to land on the Karma Buddha’s body. But at this moment, the surroundings around the Karma Buddha suddenly glowed with a dazzling golden buddhic light. He was a buddha lord of the western paradise. Qin Wentian wanted to kill him so easily? How can that be possible?

A powerful buddhic light protected his body, rendering it free from the effects of all laws. Even for the powerful world-purifying dao, it had no way to break apart the Karma Buddha’s defense.

Qin Wentian’s movements didn’t stop. He didn’t have too much time. Although he changed the flow of time, he still had to finish off his opponent as soon as possible. There were too many powerful buddha cultivators in the western paradise, he didn’t know what unfathomable methods they might have. There was nothing impossible within the buddha daos.

The Karma Buddha pressed his palms together. His body was like a buddha lamp that lit up, filling this space with light. After that, the shine of the buddha lamp shone upon Qin Wentian’s body. This scene was actually extremely similar to how he acted against Fan Ye back then. Evidently, the Karma Buddha wanted to plant a seed of karma in Qin Wentian.
