Chapter 235: Tianxuan Emerges, Chen Changsheng: Just So-So
Buddhist Nation.
Looking at the crowd around discussing scriptures, Chen Shisan was filled with confusion.
Although he had not entered the cultivation world for long, he still had some understanding of the power of the Buddhist Nation.
The cultivators around him were mostly of similar strength, so the Buddhist Fate Conference held in the Northern Desert shouldn’t be like this!
Faced with this confusion, Chen Shisan turned to Tianxuan beside him and whispered, “Tianxuan, is this really the Buddhist Fate Conference?”
“Why do I feel like they are not as strong as you?”
“Could it be that this Buddhist Fate Conference is not about measuring strength, but rather about understanding Buddhism?”
“That’s quite normal; this is merely the peripheral Buddhist Fate Conference.”
“To be precise, this is just a gathering of small factions and loose cultivators for the Buddhist Fate Conference.”
“The real prodigies and powerful figures are inside.”
“The Buddhist Fate Conference inside is the real Buddhist Fate Conference.”
Hearing this, Chen Shisan looked up, then seriously said, “Since that’s the case, what are we doing here?”
“Thinking of getting to the Merit Pool, we obviously need to find someone in the Buddhist Nation who can speak on our behalf.”
“If this isn’t the real Buddhist Fate Conference, would those big shots even show up?”
In response, Tianxuan shot a sideways glance at the “straightforward” Chen Shisan and said flatly, “Of course, I know that the real Buddhist Fate Conference will have big figures appearing, but what do we bring to get in?”
“Those who can enter are mostly the prodigies of major powers.”
“With our status as loose cultivators, we don’t even have the qualifications to enter the threshold.”
“Of course, things aren’t absolutely hopeless. I do have a way to get in, but I’m worried you won’t be able to.”
“Is it about fighting?” Chen Shisan straightened up a bit and said, “Tianxuan, don’t worry; I won’t hold you back.”
“It’s not about fighting, it’s about writing poetry.”
“Loose cultivators who want to enter the real Buddhist Fate Conference must prove they have Buddhist affinity.”
“It’s clearly not appropriate to fight here; writing poetry is the best approach.”
“Didn’t you see how these people are discussing in groups of three or five?”
“They just want to write a poem with Buddhist nature and use that to enter the Buddhist Fate Conference.”
“Huh?”
Facing this request, Chen Shisan’s face twisted instantly.
So far, he had only been able to read a few hundred characters.
Being able to recognize most characters was already quite rare, and now to get someone like himself to write poetry, and not just any poetry, but poetry with Buddhist essence.
This was akin to pushing a duck onto a shelf!
After careful thought, Chen Shisan said, “Tianxuan, you should go in first.”
“I’ll work hard from behind, and I will definitely come in.”
“Can you really do it?”
Tianxuan looked at Chen Shisan with doubt.
When it comes to life and d*ath struggles between cultivators, Tianxuan could fully trust Chen Shisan’s sword.
But writing poetry wasn’t something achieved through effort alone; to write a remarkable Buddhist verse requires depth and insight.
Clearly, Chen Shisan did not meet the standards in terms of depth and insight.
“I’m not sure, but you can’t just leave me outside!”
Hearing this, Tianxuan nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll go in first, and then I’ll find a way to get you in.”
“As long as we enter the Buddhist Fate Conference, bringing one more person shouldn’t be a big problem.”
With that, Tianxuan stood up and walked toward the distant wall.
Looking at the clean wall, Tianxuan pondered for a few breaths, then waved his hand, engraving several lines of text onto the wall.
As the words appeared, the entire Buddhist Nation suddenly rang out with the sound of bells.
Countless bodhisattvas and arhats’ shadows manifested in the air; it was clear that the verse Tianxuan left stirred the entire Buddhist Nation.

Seeing such commotion, many loose cultivators hurriedly gathered around to observe.
“Body is the Bodhi tree, heart like a bright mirror; constantly polish it, lest it be stained with dust.”
The golden characters on the wall radiated brilliant Buddhist light.
Looking at the calm Tianxuan, then at the wall filled with Buddhist nature verses, many loose cultivators wore bitter smiles.
Though they didn’t know who this person was, judging from his demeanor, he must be a prodigy from a major power.
The reason he didn’t directly enter the Buddhist Fate Conference could very likely be that he looked down upon it.
He wanted to step in based solely on his own ability, one step at a time.
The disparities in this world always left one feeling helpless!
Facing the crowd’s gaze, Tianxuan showed no expression.
Although the Xuan Bird Clan had fallen, they were once one of the prominent clans among the Demon Clan.
As a descendant of this clan, his knowledge and depth would naturally not be lacking; one could even say he was exceptional.
The reason he seemed unremarkable over the past three years was not that Tianxuan was inadequate, but because the people around him were too strong.
Qian Bao’er, the little princess of the Wanfeng Merchant Association, was exceptionally talented and quick-witted.
Linglong, the Buddhist maiden from Cloud Mountain Temple, was not only profound in Buddhist teachings but also an unmatched cultivator among her peers.
Bai Ze, a mythical beast known only from hearsay.
Each of these individuals, one person and one beast, alone would be remarkable in any place.
Moreover, even the least gifted Chen Shisan had remarkably shining traits.
No one could overlook the sword in his hand, nor could they ignore the clarity and unwavering nature of his heart.
Tianxuan could discuss Buddhism with Linglong, chat about everything under the sun with Qian Bao’er, and compare mental states with Chen Shisan without falling too far behind.
Such accomplishments were enough to prove that Tianxuan was far from an ordinary figure.
This luxurious team had not developed a proud heart entirely because above them loomed two great mountains suppressing them.
The enigmatic Chen Changsheng and the refined Nalan Xingde.
Soon, several bald figures of notable identity approached.
“Amitabha!”
“With deep Buddhist affinities, please enter the inner courtyard.”
Faced with the invitation from the Buddhist Nation’s monks, Tianxuan walked in very calmly, showcasing the poise of one from a great power.
…
Under the Bodhi tree.
“Tsk tsk!”
“Who would’ve thought that Tianxuan is also proficient in Buddhist teachings; this is quite surprising!”
Muttering about the Buddhist verse Tianxuan wrote, Bai Ze shook his head in admiration.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng smiled and said, “I believe this is perfectly reasonable.”
“Tianxuan and Linglong have a complex entanglement; someone who can talk so freely with the Buddhist maiden must surely be well-versed in Buddhist teachings.”
“Tianxuan’s comprehension is quite good; his understanding of Buddhism is interesting, but it’s a pity he doesn’t believe in Buddhism, so he cannot grasp the true essence of it.”
“With his character, the day he believes in Buddhism will be the day Buddhism is extinguished.”
Upon hearing this, Bai Ze shot a glance at Chen Changsheng.
“No, can your standards be a bit lower?”
“They are all just kids; they can’t possibly be like you.”
“Hahaha!”
“It’s not that I have high standards; it’s that prodigies should be like this; this isn’t Tianxuan’s strength.”
“It’s pretty good that he has reached this level, but he still can’t be considered outstanding.”
