A few hundred breaths later, one of the two forbidden places of the Ancient Bodhi Temple, the Bodhi Pond…
Qin Nan immediately felt an overwhelming Bodhi presence around him as he stepped out of the Bodhi gate.
He felt himself to be extremely tiny facing the Bodhi presence.
Qin Nan was startled. He secretly unleashed the Battle Dao Immortal Ma.n.u.script as he glanced ahead.
His surroundings were filled with golden sparkles. Even his Immortal Eyes of the Divine G.o.d of Battle struggled to see through them.
He only noticed an enormous pond made of stones around a few hundred zhang away. It was around fifty thousand zhang wide. It was filled with a golden liquid. A towering tree which he could not see its full appearance stood in the middle of the pond.
The pond was surrounded by four statues of Buddhas with furious looks.
“Such a terrifying Bodhi Pond, no wonder the guy failed to resist it!”
Doom’s eyes flickered with strong hatred and disgust toward the place.
“Who are you? Why did you enter without permission?”
A furious roar sounded. A shocking aura burst out of the four statues simultaneously. The aura completely surpa.s.sed the Peerless Ruler Realm.
Qin Nan quickly took out the talisman.
The four statues briefly scanned its content and said with a helpless voice, “In you go!”
A giant hand suddenly appeared and lifted Qin Nan. He did not resist it. The hand brought him into the Bodhi Pond.
“Namo Amitabha…Namo Amitabha…”
Countless chants immediately echoed in Qin Nan’s mind, but it did not feel chaotic. It felt soothing.
In addition to it, a warm aura encapsulated him, calming his thoughts.
“This Bodhi Pond is unusual indeed.”
Qin Nan’s eyes flickered with astonishment. He activated the Battle Dao Immortal Ma.n.u.script and the Scriptures of Sky Taihuang simultaneously.
The chants and the warm aura were only influencing him slightly. Their effects were almost negligible.
Qin Nan did not overthink it. He sat with his legs crossed and began to cultivate.
Time gradually pa.s.sed. Eight hours later…
Qin Nan’s eyes sprang open with a confused look.
How strange, why did nothing happen?
Qin Nan sharply noticed a powerful aura descending upon the Bodhi Pond.
Qin Nan activated the Immortal Eyes of the Divine G.o.d of Battle and saw an expressionless middle-aged monk with three glowing rings behind his head. The monk happened to lower his head and exchanged glances with Qin Nan.
“Master Lin, I am the Great Bodhisattva Guangming, Liujie’s master. If you let Liujie go now, I will give you the Sarira of a Nine Heavens Supreme in the early stage, how’s that?”
The Great Bodhisattva Guangming placed a palm in front of his chest.
“I’m sorry, Great Bodhisattva, I will return Liujie to the Heart-Cleansing Temple unharmed in half a month. I can’t release him now.”
Qin Nan’s heart tensed, but he did not show it on his face.
He could already tell the Great Bodhisattva Guangming was no ordinary Nine Heavens Supreme. He did not stand a chance against him.
“Master Lin.”
The Great Bodhisattva Guangming’s tone turned colder, “Don’t you think you are safe just because Old Buddha Nantai had your back. This is your last chance!”
Qin Nan shook his head without any hesitation, “Bodhisattva, Liujie has lost to me in the duel. He should keep his promise. Is the Ancient Bodhi Temple such an unjust faction?”
“You have a sharp tongue!”
Great Bodhisattva Guangming grinned coldly and said, “Master Lin, I can sense a strong evil inside you. I shall exterminate it for you!”
A terrifying Bodhi intent soared into the sky following the words.
“Bodhisattva, we are already breaking the rules for allowing you to use violence here. We won’t be able to explain ourselves if you are using too much of your cultivation…”
The four statues with furious looks came to life and resisted a huge portion of the Bodhi intent.
“Don’t you worry, I know what I’m doing!”
Great Bodhisattva Guangming nodded. He withdrew the Bodhi intent and pointed forward.
BANG!
A shocking explosion took place in the rift.
Qin Nan’s expression greatly s.h.i.+fted.
He sensed the entire sky acc.u.mulating its force and collapsing onto him from the single finger.
It was like an ant trying to resist the wrath of the Heavens. It was no different than seeking death.
“Qin Nan, dive!” Doom yelled.
“Unstoppable Step!”
Qin Nan thoroughly unleashed his immortal force. He turned into a ray of light and dived into the pond at an incredible pace.
“You’re pretty quick at running away.”
Great Bodhisattva Guangming performed a Bodhi seal with a single hand. He shoved his palm down expressionlessly.
Qin Nan and Doom immediately stiffened.

They could feel that the entire Bodhi Pond had turned hostile toward them. The boundless Bodhi intent was surging at them like huge waves.
It was twice as strong as the force unleashed by the finger.
“White-Blue Flower!”
Qin Nan summoned the flower in the nick of time.
BANG!
Following a huge crash, the flower did not display its insane power. It was knocked back into Qin Nan’s body instead.
However, it managed to nullify a huge portion of the force.
The remaining force landed on Qin Nan and sent him flying, but it did not inflict any damage on him.
“Oh?”
Great Bodhisattva Guangming’s eyes flickered with astonishment.
Was that the mysterious trump card that Lin Nan had?
“Impressive, the palm was enough to suppress a peak Peerless Ruler.”
Great Bodhisattva Guangming nodded. He was preparing his next move.
“Bodhisattva, that’s enough!”
The four statues blurted out with a startled look upon receiving a message.
“Mm?”
Great Bodhisattva Guangming’s eyes squinted. He eventually lowered his hand and said, “Let me know when he’s out of here.”
He vanished into thin air.
Consider yourself luck.
You won’t be so lucky next time!
Meanwhile, deep inside the Bodhi Pond…
“Did he leave?” Qin Nan panted heavily.
“What does that Old Buddha Nantai want?” Doom grumbled.
Why would he bother with the twists and turns if he was planning to punish Qin Nan? Couldn’t he just tell them what he wanted?
Qin Nan was struggling to understand too. He shook his head and focused on treating his injuries.
“Mm? The Bodhi intent here is a lot stronger than the Bodhi intent on the surface.”
Qin Nan soon noticed something different around him. He looked around him.
His gaze froze all of a sudden.
He saw a tiny black dot deep inside the pond.
“Let’s go check it out.”
Qin Nan dived deeper. A few moments later, they both wore an astounded look.
There was another s.p.a.ce under the Bodhi Pond?
