 Chapter 3223: If They Really Had Great Destiny, Would They Be Here?

According to the information he knew, Dao Venerables who dissolved their bodies and reincarnated would have a corresponding rebirth treasure.

This rebirth treasure was the key to whether the reincarnation could truly succeed.

The success of dissolution and rebirth could be seen as two steps.

The first step was to survive and successfully transform the soul from acquired to innate.

The second step was to recover one's former cultivation and memories, which relied on the rebirth treasure.

Now Little Mei had succeeded halfway, with the other half still to go.

If the second step couldn't be completed, then Little Mei would be a completely new life, unrelated to the ninth-level Dao Venerable before reincarnation. Strictly speaking, the dissolution and rebirth would be considered a failure.

Actually, even if Little Mei couldn't find the rebirth treasure, with her innate Dao soul, her cultivation speed would still be extremely fast.

At most in a few thousand years, Little Mei could return to the Dao Venerable realm, and then in several tens of thousands of years, she could return to the ninth-level Dao Venerable realm.

But this wouldn't be perfect, as it would waste a lot of time. The rebirth treasure contained not only cultivation, but also destiny, and memories of past cultivation experiences, all of which were very precious.

Especially destiny - if she obtained the rebirth treasure, her destiny could greatly increase, and the probability of breaking through to the Great Dao realm would also significantly improve.

The rebirth treasure would scatter along with the dissolution and rebirth. If nothing went wrong, they wouldn't be too far apart.

Moreover, there was a karmic connection between the reincarnated person and the rebirth treasure. Sooner or later they would meet, unless something unexpected happened.

Lin Moyu guessed that since Little Mei had reincarnated here, the rebirth treasure was probably in the Dragon Subduing Buddha Nation, though there was also a chance it could be in nearby Buddha nations.

Lin Moyu withdrew his palm, and Little Mei immediately woke up, looking at Lin Moyu with innocent big eyes, "Big brother, can my illness be cured?"

Lin Moyu smiled, "It can be cured, but now is not the time. Little Mei, do you think Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha is a good person or a bad person?"

Little Mei thought for a moment, "Mom told me that the nation's lord is a very great person. He killed that dragon, allowing people here to live in peace, without having to worry all the time."

Little Mei didn't say whether he was good or bad, just that he was a very great person.

What she knew was all from her mother's words.

A child not yet ten years old didn't really have many thoughts of her own.

Lin Moyu said, "Brother wants to know Little Mei's own thoughts."

Little Mei tilted her head, looking towards the Buddha hall with some hesitation, "When I saw the nation's lord just now, Little Mei smelled some scents. These scents weren't pleasant, not fragrant."

The innate Dao soul was very sensitive. Although Little Mei hadn't cultivated, she could still have various feelings.

For her, these feelings were scents. Different scents could distinguish good from bad, kind from evil.

Of course, this good and bad, kind and evil, was only in relation to her personally.

To her, Lin Moyu smelled fragrant, very pleasant.

What she described as unpleasant was actually quite euphemistic; in fact, it meant stinky.

What she saw wasn't Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha, but the malicious poison dragon. How could it not stink?

Lin Moyu said, "Actually, that just now wasn't Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha. The real Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha has been in the Buddha hall all along, not coming out. Little Mei, smell again, what's the scent of the person in the Buddha hall like?"

Little Mei sniffed hard, then her little face turned ugly, "It stinks so much!"

Lin Moyu chuckled, Little Mei's reaction was clearly instinctive. He continued to ask, "Is it even stinkier than the one just now?"

Little Mei covered her nose and nodded vigorously, "Yes, much stinkier."

Lin Moyu smiled, "Then quickly plug your nose, don't let the stink kill you."

As he had thought, that Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha in the Buddha hall was too hypocritical. Seeming to have some kindness, but doing evil with kindness, was truly the greatest evil.

Such a person's scent was stinkier, far stinkier than a straightforward evil person like the poison dragon.

At this moment, there was movement in the Buddha hall. Lin Moyu said, "Little Mei, watch the show a bit longer. Brother will help cure your illness in a while. Don't be afraid, brother is right beside you."

Little Mei took two deep breaths of Lin Moyu's scent. She completely believed Lin Moyu's words, "Little Mei isn't afraid."

Lin Moyu let Little Mei return to the real world, while he remained in another layer of space. Everything that had just happened, except for the two of them, no one knew.

A majestic voice came from the Buddha hall, "Everyone, enter the Buddha hall."

The children who had been sitting for half a day all stood up, ignoring their numb legs, and entered the Buddha hall.

At this time, in the Buddha hall, hundreds of children were already standing.

These children were also under ten years old, coming from four small Buddha cities.

The two groups of children together numbered over a thousand.

The Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha transformed from the poison dragon was looking at them with unfriendly eyes.

The real Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha had his back to all the children, as if unable to bear looking.

The poison dragon's gaze swept over them. His gaze was extremely sharp, and the children all lowered their heads, not daring to meet his eyes.

A deep, majestic voice came from his mouth, "You are all suffering from the plague, afflicted with serious illness, on the road to death."

"Today, I will act to save you from suffering. I hope you can repay with sincerity."

"I can see that not all of you are sincere. For those whose hearts are not sincere, my wondrous methods will naturally be ineffective. You should understand clearly."

His words were like a spell, imprinting into their minds. Even when these children grew up, they wouldn't forget.

Lin Moyu knew what he was going to do. Of the thousand children here, he wouldn't use all of them to refine into human pills.

Most of them would have their poison removed and be sent back. These children would tell others that those who couldn't return were not sincere enough, so they couldn't be cured.

Children's words, though childish, were often easier for people to believe.

With their words, no one would be suspicious.

Combined with the previous bewitchment, everyone would only think that indeed, their hearts weren't sincere enough.

The poison dragon had done this many times, never making a mistake.

The poison dragon continued, "Everyone close your eyes and chant scriptures."

In an instant, over a thousand children all closed their eyes and began chanting.

The scripture was simple, just repeatedly chanting Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha's name in different tones and speeds.

The poison dragon waved out a green mist. The green mist turned into sweet dew falling down, immediately dissolving the poison in the children's bodies.

This poison he had planted was effortless for him to remove.

In the blink of an eye, all the children's poison was removed. Then the poison dragon waved his hand again, and over a thousand children fell to the ground, unconscious.

The poison dragon took two steps to Little Mei's side, singling out the unconscious Little Mei, then said to Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha, "It's your turn. How many people to send back, you decide."

"But I'll warn you in advance, if you want to advance to Ancient Buddha, you need at least two hundred human pills. If you want to be 100% sure, it's best to have three hundred human pills."

"According to our agreement, however many you want, I want the same."

Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha said in a low voice, "No need for your reminder, I understand. Why single out this girl?"

The poison dragon said, "This little girl gives me an unusual feeling. You can take a look."

He threw Little Mei to Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha.

Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha waved out a Buddhist power, floating Little Mei in mid-air, and carefully examined her.

Gradually, he also saw Little Mei's unusualness, "This girl's soul is different from ordinary ones. If I'm not mistaken, it should be some kind of special physique."

The poison dragon chuckled, "A special physique is good. Maybe we can refine a special pill. We can share it when the time comes."

Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha frowned, "This kind of special physique often carries great destiny. We should let her go back."

The poison dragon snorted, "Bullshit. What great destiny? If they really had great destiny, would they be here?"
