Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings

Chapter 512 - 506: Generous Terms of Surrender

Black Dragon Heaven’s eyes pierced like torches, fixed firmly on this enlightened high monk before him, seemingly trying to see through his depths.

Yet, no matter how Black Dragon Heaven scrutinized, he couldn’t discern any clues.

Indeed, this Tier Two Peak Expert couldn’t be easily deciphered by Black Dragon Heaven.

"Damn it!"

"Could he be Tier Two?" Black Dragon Heaven muttered internally.

Realizing he could not see through the person before him, Black Dragon Heaven understood that he might very well be a Tier Two Peak Powerhouse.

Just as this thought emerged in Black Dragon Heaven’s mind, Elder Bai’s voice echoed in his head: "He is Chongming Bird, now known as Great Auspicious Buddha."

"However, rest easy, he can’t discern your true identity."

Not even Chongming Bird, nor World Honored One, could likely see that Black Dragon Heaven is indeed Lin Yuan.

Black Dragon Heaven thought it through—indeed!

No fear, for he has come for negotiations, not to cause trouble with me.

Besides, Elder Bai and the others are stationed on the other side of Silent Sea. If Chongming Bird, the Great Auspicious Buddha before me, fails in negotiations and resorts to anger and violence, Elder Bai and the others can act immediately.

Mind you, Elder Bai and the others are four Tier Two Peak Experts. With four against one, I hold the advantage.

Having reached this conclusion, Black Dragon Heaven nonchalantly asked, "I wonder, how should I address this high monk?"

"I am Great Auspicious Buddha under World Honored’s command!" Great Auspicious Buddha did not hide his identity and answered honestly.

Upon hearing "Great Auspicious Buddha," Liuyu Heaven jolted with fright.

As a traitor from the World Honored One Sect, Liuyu Heaven was quite clear about the sect’s organizational structure.

He knew that anyone titled Buddha was undeniably a Tier Two Peak Expert.

For indeed, a Tier Two Peak Expert!

Liuyu Heaven thought, I’m really a jinx! Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrives.

I just said I hope no Tier Two Peak Expert would come to cause trouble, and here comes the trouble.

Black Dragon Heaven glared fiercely at Liuyu Heaven, implying, "Look at you, cowering before just one Great Auspicious Buddha."

"Ah, so it’s Great Auspicious Buddha!"

"I’ve long heard of Buddha’s esteemed name. Buddha gracing this humble place certainly makes it shine!"

"Might I ask, what brings Buddha here this time?" Black Dragon Heaven asked courteously.

Despite his polite demeanor, Black Dragon Heaven secretly communicated with Elder Bai.

Black Dragon Heaven inwardly called out, "Elder Bai, where are you? Shall we take him down?"

Soon, Elder Bai’s voice resounded in Black Dragon Heaven’s mind: "Don’t rush, see what he wants."

Asked for his purpose, Great Auspicious Buddha didn’t beat around the bush and said directly: "This time I come under World Honored’s command, to enlist you."

"You should know of World Honored’s name, sooner or later, this realm will fall into World Honored’s hands."

"World Honored decrees, if you are willing to surrender, World Honored shall establish the Dragon Division, you all shall belong to the Dragon Division, and you, Black Dragon Heaven, will be its leader."

"Furthermore, Silent Sea shall be designated for your cultivation and rest. Once World Honored succeeds in ultimately dominating this realm, all waters will come under your control, Black Dragon Heaven."

"In addition, World Honored possesses a treasure known as the Eight Treasures Reincarnation Pool, which you may enter once, enhancing your roots and increasing your potential."

Although Great Auspicious Buddha came under World Honored’s command to enlist Black Dragon Heaven, in truth, it was under Lady Ming King’s orders.

Nevertheless, it doesn’t matter whose orders they are.

This time enlisting Black Dragon Heaven brings all benefit, no harm to the sect.

Though Lady Ming King’s terms have yet to be discussed with World Honored,

as long as Black Dragon Heaven is enlisted, Lady Ming King believes World Honored will certainly agree.

Great Auspicious Buddha deemed Lady Ming King’s conditions quite tempting.

Not to mention the glorious opportunity of entering the Eight Treasures Reincarnation Pool is a dream come true.

Despite Black Dragon Heaven currently being Tier Three, even for Tier Two Peak, entering the Eight Treasures Reincarnation Pool is a dream come true.

Last time, Great Auspicious Buddha and the others entered, not only did their injuries fully heal, their roots and potential greatly increased.

For these Tier Two Peaks, entering the Eight Treasures Reincarnation Pool was a favor granted by World Honored.

Promising entrance into the Eight Treasures Reincarnation Pool just to enlist a Tier Three Peak seemed like a waste to Great Auspicious Buddha.

However, as it was decided by Medicine King Buddha and Lady Ming King, it was hard for him to oppose.

After stating the conditions, Great Auspicious Buddha quietly watched Black Dragon Heaven, seemingly waiting for his choice.

At this time, Black Dragon Heaven sat in silence, as if pondering deeply.

Hasn’t eaten pork, but certainly seen pigs run?

Though Black Dragon Heaven was unaware of what precisely the Eight Treasures Reincarnation Pool was, he vaguely sensed it was a good thing.

Thus, Black Dragon Heaven called out internally to Elder Bai, "Elder Bai, Elder Bai, do you think I could take advantage of World Honored once for the Eight Treasures Reincarnation Pool?"

As soon as Black Dragon Heaven spoke, Elder Bai’s voice echoed immediately in his mind: "Are you seeking death?"

"Using the Eight Treasures Reincarnation Pool without backing, you are walking into a trap."

"If you don’t enter the Eight Treasures Reincarnation Pool, World Honored will find it challenging to discern your depth. If you do enter, he will surely see through you."

Upon hearing Elder Bai’s words, Black Dragon Heaven couldn’t help but feel a bit dejected.

Enjoying free benefits brings joy, yet now, the joy is lost?

"So, should I refuse him?" Black Dragon Heaven communicated with Elder Bai.

Elder Bai pondered briefly and then responded, "No, accept it."

"Relax his guard and keep him discussing enlistment details while we stealthily approach."

Elder Bai and the others, positioned on the other side of Silent Sea, needed time to reach here.

If Black Dragon Heaven were to refuse now, Great Auspicious Buddha might either lash out or depart immediately.

No matter his choice, Black Dragon Heaven would find it difficult to manage.

Following Elder Bai’s instructions, Black Dragon Heaven smiled slightly and spoke, "Honored by World Honored’s esteem, if I refuse, I’d seem unwise!"

"Very well, I shall accept. In the future, I’d appreciate Great Auspicious Buddha’s guidance."

"Too kind, guidance is daunting!"

"Since you’ve agreed, let’s discuss the details of your surrender!" Great Auspicious Buddha said slowly.

Black Dragon Heaven glanced at Liuyu Heaven and instructed, "Go prepare a banquet, I wish to host Great Auspicious Buddha properly."

After dispatching Liuyu Heaven for banquet arrangements, Black Dragon Heaven said to Great Auspicious Buddha, "Then, during the banquet, we can talk, slowly talk!"
