Chapter 995: Chapter 635: The Heavenly Snake Lady as Mother-in-Law, Dragon Python Arhat Aspires to Become Buddha

"The Traceless Thief hails from the [Ghost Clan], the most mysterious and inconspicuous faction within it, with a small population. Being able to subdue these five was a stroke of luck. With their assistance, even if my mother were to use bloodline sensing, she absolutely wouldn’t find our location."

This depiction, from the beginning, transmitted directly into Tao Qian’s mind.

At that very moment when the Void Monk and Traceless Thief appeared, the three figures disappeared silently, without a trace.

...

"Such a great clan! Such divine skills!"

"The Great Abyss Origin Sea indeed harbors endless mysteries. I had thought beings like the [Source Sea Demon Dog] were strange enough, but who would have thought there were such existences as the Void Monk and the Traceless Thief."

"The chance encounter for the two women to subdue these two great clans indeed makes their future Dao path unimaginable."

"But this mother-in-law is truly fierce."

Tao Buddha’s son, together with the Divination Worm, clearly observed the scene that just unfolded.

While marveling, he also remained cautious about whether the fierce [Heavenly Snake Lady] would, in her fury, storm into Liang Country for a massacre.

Fortunately, this direct descendant of the god demon is not bloodthirsty.

Seeing her two daughters, of their own accord, cast spells to elope with that pretty boy, this Snake Lady with an exceptionally seductive body laughed coquettishly and said:

"Hahaha... Well, well, as expected of daughters of me, the Heavenly Snake Lady."

"Raised in seclusion for eight hundred years, they’ve finally opened their hearts to emotion and learned to elope with a handsome young man without any teacher."

"Perfect, such a plot of pursuit and capture is precisely what I love most. I’ll catch that pretty boy and have a taste of him."

When these words reached their ears, the Heavenly Snake Lady swished her tail, shattering the void, and began to chase Tao Qian and his companions.

The changes and fluctuations of the Emotion Tribulation unfolded exactly as Tao Buddha’s son had anticipated.

The only unexpected thing was that the one to trigger the tribulation was someone like the Heavenly Snake Lady.

After observing the whole scene, even Tao Buddha’s son, with his playful and thick-skinned nature, couldn’t help but exclaim:

"So fierce!"

But soon after his exclamation, even more fierce and delightful news followed.

Divination Worm!

The Duobao Daoist relied on the Heavenly Dao Worm to traverse heaven and earth, which fell into the hands of Tao Buddha’s son. Except for an initial rapid growth, it made no further progress.

Though it cannot be entirely blamed on him, as even the Search God Realm today is considered one of the most dangerous places, even in the Great Abyss Origin Sea.

Ultimate Happiness walks everywhere, Daoist Transformation is as common as dogs, no empty words.

The valued worm had yet to receive great benefits from its "master" but now, for the first time, it surpassed the calculations of "Golden Cicada," displaying its foreknowledge divine skills.

Days in advance, it predicted the subsequent changes in this Emotion Tribulation:

"The two women, White Snake and Green Snake, elope with your Mystical Pearl Avatar to escape their mother. Though Heavenly Snake Lady’s physical body is powerful and her divine skills vast, and she is adept at tracking, she ultimately can’t match the innate divine skills of the two great clans, the Void Monk and Traceless Thief, searching for days to no avail."

"Due to many old lovers calling for her, she eventually gives up."

"However, the Heavenly Snake Lady’s unrestrained pursuit unexpectedly alerted a hidden Evil Demon Cultivator in the Search God Record, named [Dragon Python Arhat]."

"This Arhat was originally a proper Buddhist practitioner, hailing from a major Buddhist sect in the Earth Immortal Realm, [Gold Mountain Monastery]. With extraordinary talent, he was destined to enter the Realm of Daoist Transformation, but a Heart Demon arose one day."

"Instead of resolving it with Buddhist Law, he actively fell into demonhood, believing he could subdue it with his own mental strength."

"If it were an ordinary Heart Demon, the methods of this Talent Buddha Son would be feasible. However, the Heart Demon within him had a significant origin."

"Dragon Python Arhat subsequently became a Fallen Demon, brazenly switched to the Demon Buddha Temple in the Earth Immortal Realm, and became a disciple of [Great Jiye Demon Buddha]. His master instructed him to come to the Search God Realm, to seize the opportunity to devour two Snake Demons with innate Buddha nature, thereby attaining immediate enlightenment and truly stepping into the realm of Daoist Transformation Bodhisattva."

"Dragon Python was wary of the Heavenly Snake Lady’s mana and couldn’t find a suitable opportunity."

"After the departure of the Heavenly Snake Lady, the White Snake and Green Snake relaxed slightly, assuming there was no longer any danger, unaware of the Dragon Python Arhat spying nearby."

"This demon monk brazenly struck, and as you risked your life to save them, assuming success as in previous attempts... Yet this time, due to your divine skills and magical treasures being divided into four parts, it was as futile as a mantis trying to stop a carriage before the Dragon Python Arhat, and that ’Mysterious Heavenly Number’ failed for the first time."

"The Mystical Pearl Avatar perished violently, while the White Snake and Green Snake fell into the hands of the Dragon Python Arhat, who devoured them, instantly attaining Buddhahood and stepping into the Daoist Transformation Realm, self-styled as Dragon Python Bodhisattva."

...

These descriptions were not only detailed, but the Divination Worm also conveyed some vague images.

Tao Buddha’s son, who was once rather carefree, furrowed his brows and his expression stiffened.

This bad news arrived so suddenly.

He clearly didn’t expect the Divination Worm to showcase "foreknowledge ability" to be used in this manner.

Though the Mystical Pearl Avatar’s violent demise was of little concern to him, as the Ten Thousand Marvelous Mysterious Pearl could be endlessly regenerated.

However, the death of the White Snake and Green Snake was unacceptable to Tao Buddha’s son.

He acted more wantonly than his true self, Tao Master, and his nature was undoubtedly that of a libertine.

But that’s all there is to it, he could not tolerate that, due to his own actions, two beautiful daoist friends met their demise.

"That damned [Dragon Python Arhat], first acting arrogantly, then falling into demonhood of his own accord."

"Unable to achieve enlightenment on his own, he thought instead to devour other Buddha’s sons, utterly shameless."

"No, I absolutely cannot let this person take my life, ruin my affairs, and kill my two wives."

Even at this point, the thick-skinned Secret Demon Child did not forget to claim the title first.

But since foreknowledge was attained, naturally there was a way to deal with it.

Perhaps because this attempt was to save his own wives, the usually indolent Tao Buddha’s son, without even needing his true self to speak, began to seriously ponder:

"In previous rescues, all inexplicably succeeded, likely due to Golden Cicada’s secret plotting."

"This time it failed, possibly because my cultivation and magical treasures were split into four, weakening me so much that even the ’Saint Monk Heavenly Number’ couldn’t save... Another possibility is that it was that damned Golden Cicada’s deliberate ploy, lulling me into complacency with previous emotional tribulations, then seizing the opportunity to strike."

"Avatars perished, new brides devoured, what a cruel calamity, surely Golden Cicada isn’t that ruthless?"

"The first possibility is easily solved, there are still days left, I will immediately cultivate the [Ten Thousand Refinement Spirit God Method] to enhance the physical body divine power, then cultivate another Secret Demon Magic I’ve coveted for a long time, which can rapidly multiply my Source Qi power... with both approaches, I should be able to cope."

"But if it’s the second possibility, unless I enter Daoist Transformation, resisting any further would be futile."

Thoughts reaching this point, Tao Buddha’s son suddenly shook his head in denial.

On the other side, the true self, Tao Master, sitting idly and amused by watching the events within the Search God Realm, not only agreed but revealed the true reasoning behind it:

"Be at ease!"

"If it were in another Great Realm, a saint monk or Buddha like Golden Cicada attempting to enlighten a demon into a disciple, undoubtedly the latter would require an intense trial, to shatter the heart soul of the evil demon, allowing the Buddhist law to take advantage and cleanse thoroughly, thereafter embracing Buddhism."

"However, now we are in the Search God Realm, thus it is mostly the former."

"Golden Cicada intends to enlighten you as the first objective, but the true desire is to connect the various Daoist lineages, god and demon forces... Now merely starting, how can he not understand the importance?"

"The reason the Divination Worm’s vision of the future appears as it does may not be solely because of your four-part division, but likely involves the meddling of that Dragon Python Arhat’s master, [Great Jiye Demon Buddha], who perceived Golden Cicada’s calculations against his disciple and subtly intervened, disrupting his plans."

"If my prediction is correct, in a few days, if the White Snake and Green Snake truly end up swallowed by the Dragon Python Arhat, Golden Cicada will not avoid directly casting a spell to descend, forcibly cleaving open his belly, and retrieving the two women alive for you."

"However, the future is uncertain, and you must not warn Golden Cicada, lest he becomes aware of the Divination Worm’s existence."

"You should first undertake the first method, refining the physical body and enhancing divine power, which is the best approach."
