Chapter 1842: Chapter 1884: Dao Incense

The Buddha Lord shook his head and said, "It’s an ordinary thing."

"However, the water within it was drunk by the Buddha, containing the charm of Buddha; when poured out, it can cause a tidal wave, flooding the heavens and earth."

Jiang Fan was initially disappointed, but when he heard the latter part, he was instantly delighted.

When counterattacking the Heavenly Realm, wouldn’t it be useful to encounter hordes of Ancient Giants?

He hurriedly put it away, then pointed at the oil lamp.

The Buddha Lord said, "It’s also an ordinary thing."

"But it has reflected the shadow of the Buddha. Lighting this lamp can conceal itself within the glow, invisible to anyone below the Saint Realm."

Jiang Fan’s face showed a look of delight.

In other words, it can confer invisibility? Moreover, it’s not just for his personal use; as long as one is within the light, they can remain unseen!

Unfortunately, there isn’t much oil in it, and the effect likely weakens with each use.

Nonetheless, it’s still a precious treasure.

Then, he pointed toward the Buddha Lord and asked, "Is this also an ordinary thing?"

The Buddha Lord said, "No, it’s a Quasi-Realm Artifact."

Jiang Fan beamed with joy, finally having a true treasure.

"Does it have any effect?"

The Buddha said, "Guiding one out of confusion, illuminating the path to clarity."

Jiang Fan frowned, "Does it enhance one’s comprehension?"

The Buddha Lord looked at Jiang Fan, saying, "Let’s explain it this way: aren’t the Central Earth Human Clan’s Nascent Souls prone to madness?"

"If a Buddha Venerate holds and activates this bead, it can assist a crazed Nascent Soul in sudden enlightenment, awakening to the Divinity Transformation."

What?

Jiang Fan was shocked. Is there really such a heaven-defying effect?

The madness of Nascent Souls has always been a nightmare for those in the Central Earth Nascent Soul Realm, making many suppress their cultivation at the Seven Orifice Nascent Soul, afraid to take another step forward.

And those who confidently step in, ninety percent are stuck in madness, unable to awake.

In the Taicang State over the last 150 years, there have been hundreds of Nine Aperture Nascent Souls, but very few have awakened from the madness.

The True Word Venerable took three years to self-awaken from madness.

Jiang Wuya only abruptly awakened thanks to Jiang Fan’s guidance.

But this Buddha Bead before him can actually make someone awaken from madness?

The Buddha Bead added:

"The effect of illuminating the path varies from person to person. If one is merely a step away from Perfection in understanding their path, they can awaken within days."

"If one lacks understanding of their path, it could take as short as a month, or indefinitely long."

Jiang Fan nodded, this makes a lot of sense.

You can’t expect to enter madness without clarity on your path, waiting for the Buddha Bead to enlighten you, right?

Even so, this string of Buddha Beads is still heaven-defying.

However, where would one find a Buddha Venerate?

Could he request the Buddha Venerate of the Heavenly State?

Whether they agree or not is one thing, and even if they do, they’ll likely set strict conditions, won’t they?

No matter, first take them back.

Finally, Jiang Fan took out the incense burner and asked, "This should be an ordinary thing, right?"

If it’s the last thing he takes out, naturally he doesn’t value it highly.

The Buddha Lord glanced over, a touch of emotion on his face: "The burner is an ordinary thing."

"But the remnants of incense within aren’t."

Jiang Fan looked over and found three sticks of incense inserted inside, all half-burned.

He picked them up and smelled them; there was a special fragrance that was refreshing, but nothing too extraordinary.

The Buddha Lord said, "These incense... are essential for becoming a Boundary Master."

Thud—

Jiang Fan’s hand trembled, and the three sticks of incense fell to the ground. He exclaimed, "Essential for a Boundary Master?"

The Buddha Lord picked up the three sticks of incense and respectfully handed them back to Jiang Fan, saying:

"To achieve the status of a Boundary Master, or to become a Saint, does Uncle know the conditions?"

Taking the incense, Jiang Fan nodded and said, "I know."

"First, the peak strength of the Three Calamities Realm."

"Second, you must have the qualification of a Boundary Master, otherwise, the current Boundary Master won’t allow a breakthrough in their world."

The Buddha Lord slowly nodded, "Then does Uncle understand how to use the qualification of a Boundary Master?"

Jiang Fan fell into contemplation; this has always been a question that puzzled him.

Back then, when the Buddha came to the Hell Realm as a Central Earth Human, what use would it be even if he obtained the qualification of a Boundary Master?

The Hell Realm Masters wouldn’t possibly let a Central Earth person become a new Boundary Master of the Hell Realm?

Yet, the Buddha succeeded.

The Buddha Lord gazed at the incense in Jiang Fan’s hand, saying, "The answer lies within these incenses."

He apprehensively glanced at the sky, took a Buddha Bead from his forehead, then handed it to Jiang Fan.

Jiang Fan skillfully placed it on his forehead, and a voice sounded in his mind:

"This was given to the Buddha by the Ancient Saint of Cloud Desolation before he came to the Hell Realm."

When the voice finished, the Buddha Bead dissolved into black smoke.

Ah?

Again, the Ancient Saint of Cloud Desolation?

This old coin... cough, this wise and resourceful female Saint actually had a hand in the Buddha becoming a Hell Realm Master?

That was tens of thousands of years ago.

In other words, the Buddha was the Ancient Saint of Cloud Desolation’s planted insider within the Hell Realm!

At least half an insider, right?

The Buddha was so generous to him, offering his all without reason.

The Buddha Lord nonchalantly pointed at the three incenses, saying: "These incenses are called Tao Incense. When lit, it merges the qualification of a Boundary Master with the body."

"If the body dies, the qualification of the Boundary Master is destroyed."

Jiang Fan suddenly understood.

The reason for the Buddha’s attainment became clear!

He was puzzled as to why the Asura and Angel Clans fought each other for the qualification of Boundary Master tens of thousands of years ago.

After all, even if you seize the qualification, the opponent’s Boundary Master won’t permit a Saint Realm breakthrough; having the qualification would be pointless.

The answer is, once the qualification of a Boundary Master merges within the body, the opponent’s Boundary Master is powerless.

He gazed regretfully at the Tao Incense in his hand, lamenting, "But the qualification of the Yellow Springs Realm Master is lost."

Oddly enough, he hadn’t seen any sign of the qualification within that abyss.

Only the Bronze Hall of the Yellow Springs Realm Master.

Where did the qualification go?

The Buddha Lord also sighed lightly, "Indeed, it’s missing."

"The Buddha and several Boundary Masters are looking for it, but have yet to discover its whereabouts."

Even the Boundary Masters can’t find it; that qualification is quite elusive.

Stowing away the Tao Incense, Jiang Fan finally took out that woven mat.

The Buddha Lord’s mouth twitched slightly, "Uncle even brought a mat."

Jiang Fan chuckled awkwardly, saying, "I mentioned that I’m simply rescuing and safeguarding the Buddha Master’s belongings."

"Since it’s of no use, just return it to its original owner, here you go."

The Buddha Lord chuckled, saying, "Uncle may continue safeguarding it."

"This mat is indeed an ordinary thing, with no unique utility."

"The only special feature might be that sleeping on it is more restful."

Jiang Fan coughed dryly and tossed the mat into the corner with the Heavenly Thunder Stone.

The Buddha Lord inquired, "Is there anything else that Uncle wishes to ask?"

"Buddhist Law, the Hell Realm, Asura Clan, and other such matters are open for inquiry."

Jiang Fan pondered for a moment, a somewhat mysterious figure suddenly popping up in his mind.

He raised his hand, drawing an image of a chair in the air.

Entirely crafted from white jade, intricately carved with a Phoenix, exquisite and luxurious.

It was Ye Banxia’s Jade Carved Phoenix Chair.

"This Phoenix Chair, does it belong to the Asura Clan?"

Jiang Fan asked because he had seen an identical chair in Black Cloud Village before.

However, Ye Banxia’s Jade Carved Phoenix Chair could perform Spatial Teleportation.

The Buddha Lord merely glanced at it, gently nodding, "Indeed, it’s a jade chair belonging to my Asura Clan, where the Phoenix carvings depict our unique Hell Fire Phoenix."

"Other clans wouldn’t carve it."
