Chapter 2703
If discovered, he would most likely die. When bypassing the shrine, Steven heard a mighty heartbeat.
Steven
Alex
Thump! Thump!
It did not belong to a human, it sounded dull, yet powerful. When it reached one’s ears, one could even
feel heavy coercion, involuntarily wanting to worship it.
‘How powerful!’
Steven was shocked.
Steven
Alex
Fortunately, his physique had just undergone evolution at the Pool of Afterlife and had significantly
improved, regardless of the mental body, physical body, and root bones. He didn’t use his Buddhist
ability to prevent the great demon from waking up ording to Ancestor Bodhi’s reminder, that great
demon had a very sensitive Buddhist aura, and it would notice even a slight fluctuation.
Ten minutester, he reached the Heart Mountain after bypassing Dairaionji Temple stealthily.
Soon, he saw the Ancestral Bodhi Tree’s natural body, one so enormous that it upied almost half
the mountain range. The entire Heart Mountain coupled with the Ancestral Bodhi Tree, looked like a
large potted nt from a distance.
A tree had been raised on a mountain.
Lingering white mist and drifting spiritual energy filled the mountain, beaming with dazzling golden holy
light. However, after careful inspection, Steven could tell that the golden holy light was fake.
Steven
Alex
It turned out to be some kind of demonic Chi… Ancestor Bodhi’s real body and his escape, corrupted
by poison, indicated that the Ancestral Bodhi Tree had lost its original vital energy. After the remaining
shell lost its essence, it would rot slowly and be unsalvagable.
Roar! Roar!
Steven heard furious roars from a distance. Then, curses carried over.
Steven
Alex
“Trash! All of you are trash!”
“Good-for-nothing… Unable to do anything right? What‘s the point of having trash like you people?!”
“Go to hell!”
Boom!
Steven was stunned. Who exactly had flown into a rage at the Heart Mountain?
Steven
Alex
The next second, he discovered a few demons, resembling the previous two demons with monks’ skin
on their backs, rolling down the mountain. A demon was so close to Steven that it almost spotted him.
Steven
Alex
Then, he heard that guy at the Heart Mountain again in a more furious voice.
“What Ancestral Bodhi Tree? It’s simply trash!”
“How dare this kind of rotten tree call itself the number one Buddhist tree?! Bah!”
Steven moved some feets closer. He could clearly see movement at the Heart Mountain without
activating the divine eyes. A phantom of a soul was constantly circling around the Ancestral Bodhi
Tree… Meanwhile, the Ancestral Bodhi Tree’s real body was in a terrible state. It was sick, with more
than half of its leaves yellow. With the ground full of withered leaves, it looked as if its days were
numbered.
Steven
Alex
The phantom’s emotions were in an agitated state.
Steven quickly guessed that a soul had been generated after Soul nting was cast inside the
Ancestral Bodhi Tree.
Steven
Alex
To his surprise, that soul’s body could detach itself from the Ancestral Bodhi Tree and roam freely
outside. It even possessedbat power so powerful it drove away other demons like rolling balls.
“What do I need you for? What do I need you for?”

The soul’s phantom smacked the Ancestral Bodhi Tree repeatedly.
Countless withered leaves on the Ancestral Bodhi Tree fell off one after another.
“Hmph! What a broken tree! I’lle back and deal with youter!”
“If you don’t cooperate, I’ll burn you down! ”
The phantom looked furious. It unexpectedly left the ancestral Bodhi Tree’s range and rushed down the
Heart Mountain.
Steven was shocked.
Steven
Alex
Could he have been discovered?
However, he soon discovered that the phantom was heading directly to the shrine of Dairaionji Temple.
‘Good chance!’
Steven seized the opportunity. He directly teleported to the Heart Mountain and retrieved the Ancestral
Bodhi Tree using the method Ancestor Bodhi had taught him!

Alex
“Om mani padme hum! Retrieve!”
