Chapter 1788: Prajna Nirvana Sutra

The golden words were extremely strange and did not belong to Tianhuang Mainland. Instead, they were ancient Sanskrit of the Buddhist monasteries.

If it was anyone else, they would not be able to recognize a single word of the Sanskrit.

However, Su Zimo was well-versed in Buddhism. When he was a mortal, Die Yue placed the Saraca Flower in his body and turned it into his wisdom root. As such, he had a deep understanding of the Sanskrit of Buddhism.

Enduring the pain in his mind, Su Zimo was on the brink of a mental breakdown and instinctively read out the first five words on the inner wall of the Bronze Square Tripod.

“Prajna¹… Nirvana Sutra!”

Boom!

A loud bang sounded in Su Zimo’s mind!

The two Essence Spirits that were fused with the power of Extreme Yin and Yang were initially in a frenzied chase and collision that intensified. However, the moment Su Zimo released the Sanskrit words, the two Essence Spirits paused for a moment!

The power of Extreme Yin and Yang seemed to have mellowed and was no longer as sharp as before.

Su Zimo regained a momentary respite of clarity and vaguely realized that the golden Sanskrit words on the inner walls of the Bronze Square Tripod were most likely the key to resolving the danger in his body!

Prajna represented wisdom in Buddhism.

The Nirvana of Buddhism was completely different from the Nirvana of the Phoenix race.

In Buddhism, Nirvana represented the entire process of a monk’s enlightenment. By cutting off the attachment to time, he could reach a supreme realm where he could transcend mortality and attain enlightenment!

Su Zimo widened his eyes and continued reading the golden Sanskrit words on the inner wall.

With that look, Su Zimo felt that the Sanskrit was extremely mysterious, as though it contained the deepest essence of the Buddhist Dao!

Every single golden Sanskrit word contained endless wisdom after careful analysis.

Given Su Zimo’s current attainments in Buddhism, it was difficult for him to comprehend those Sanskrit words in a short period of time.

In Tianhuang Mainland, one of the six Buddhist monasteries was Wisdom¹ Monastery.

Su Zimo had cultivated the Prajna Sutra, an important secret classic of the Buddhist monasteries in Wisdom Monastery.

However, the profoundness of the Prajna Sutra paled in comparison to the Prajna Nirvana Sutra before him.

“Ah!”

Right then, in Su Zimo’s mind, the two Essence Spirits collided once more. His body shuddered and he could not help but cry out in pain.

If this continued, his head would explode and his two Essence Spirits would be destroyed within a few breaths!

Su Zimo composed himself hurriedly and focused his gaze, chanting the Sanskrit words on the inner walls of the Bronze Square Tripod one after another.

A series of ancient Sanskrit sounds reverberated through the almost sealed Bronze Square Tripod. It was divine and boundless!

Su Zimo’s eyes shone with a bedazzling golden light.

He seemed to have an illusion that the golden Sanskrit words on the inner walls of the Bronze Square Tripod were falling one after another and swarming into his consciousness!

A divine and peaceful power descended on the two Essence Spirits that were in pursuit.

Under the augmentation of that power, the two Essence Spirits gradually calmed down.

The two Essence Spirits that were fused with the power of Extreme Yin and Yang seemed to have transformed into two different fish, black and white. Their heads and tails were connected as they gradually closed in.

Initially, the power of the Yin Yang Fishes was fiercely at odds and could not fuse together.

However, at that moment, a golden thread appeared between the Yin Yang Fishes, forming a perfect arc that fused the two powers.

That golden thread was formed from the power of the Prajna Nirvana Sutra!

Under the connection of the golden thread, the Yin Yang Fishes fused almost perfectly and spun slowly while their auras gradually stabilized.

Su Zimo panted heavily, drenched from head to toe.

However, his eyes shone with the joy of surviving a calamity.

Even after absorbing the weapon of the Immortal King expert, only a single wall of the Bronze Square Tripod was repaired.

However, the Prajna Nirvana Sutra recorded on the wall of the tripod was incomplete and could only be considered as one of the volumes.

If those Sanskrit words could not suppress the Extreme Yin and Yang as well as his two Essence Spirits, he would be helpless.

At that moment, the black and white Yin Yang Fishes spun slowly on the Creation Lotus Platform, absorbing the green glow that spewed from it and emitting a powerful aura!

As time passed by, the Yin Yang Fishes gradually transformed and condensed another Essence Spirit—it looked exactly like Su Zimo!

Success!

Su Zimo was delighted.

The two Essence Spirits fused successfully!

Not only that, Su Zimo could clearly sense that the brand new Essence Spirit was much stronger than his current cultivation realm!

What surprised Su Zimo even more was that his Essence Spirit was not only nourished by the Creation Lotus Platform. The two Illumination and Nether Glow Stones that had fused into his eyes were also emitting wisps of power that were nourishing his Essence Spirit!

That way, the potential of the Green Lotus Essence Spirit would be limitless and there would be a greater chance for it to grow to Grade 10, 11 or even the legendary Grade 12!

Die Yue had once said that the later four grades of the Creation Green Lotus contained great opportunities.

Now that Su Zimo’s Green Lotus True Body had transformed to Grade 9, that statement had come true.

He obtained an utmost treasure, the Nine Heavens Living Soil!

He did not know what sort of opportunities would be born in the later three grades.

This time round, Su Zimo had no other choice than to fuse his Essence Spirits.

This was the only way he could minimize the loss of this calamity!

Notwithstanding the huge increase in his Essence Spirit realm after the Essence Spirit fusion, by some freak coincidence, he even activated the Bronze Square Tripod completely and obtained an ancient Buddhist sutra from it.

It was clear that this Buddhist sutra had an extremely powerful effect on cultivating one’s Essence Spirit!

If that was not the case, he would not have been able to fuse his two Essence Spirits through the intersection of Yin and Yang.

More importantly, the Reverse Scale and Barren secret skills in the Dragon Phoenix Essence Spirit were not lost and were completely fused with the Green Lotus True Body.

After fusing with his Essence Spirit, the combat strength of the Green Lotus True Body increased significantly as well!

For his ascension to the upper world, this was way too important.

He had already encountered such a calamity before he ascended to the upper world. It was hard to imagine the danger he would face once he truly arrived.

Of course, the fusion of the two Essence Spirits was not without losses.

At the very least, the current Green Lotus True Body could no longer release the Nirvana divine power of the phoenix race.

Apart from comprehension, the most important thing to activate this innate divine power was to possess the blood of the Divine Phoenix!

The Dragon Phoenix True Body had phoenix blood flowing through his body, but the Green Lotus True Body did not.

For Su Zimo, that loss was nothing much.

Even if he could activate that divine power, he would not dare to.

That was because the Nirvana divine power had a slim chance of survival to begin with.

Relying on that divine power would not be of much benefit to his cultivation.

“King Yun You!”

“Once I ascend to the upper world, I’ll definitely take revenge!”

In the Bronze Square Tripod, Su Zimo could not help but say word by word with a cold expression and killing intent when he thought of the destroyed Dragon Phoenix True Body!

Su Zimo did not know that although his Essence Spirit was temporarily out of danger, he was not out of the woods just yet!

Now that he was devoured by the black hole in the starry skies, he was in a space without light, time and Essence Qi—he could not leave at all, let alone ascend to the upper world!

If nothing unexpected happened, he would have to float in the black hole forever until his lifespan was up!
