Now that Paul had gotten his hands on the Ancestral Bodhi Tree, he wished clearly that he could
immediately place William under the tree and suppress the Soul Plantingâs progress by relying on the
holy energy of the Ancestral Bodhi Tree.

Unfortunately, the Ancestral Bodhi Tree had been poisoned. Not only were its leaves withering from the
declining life force, but its roots were blemished with toxicity. It was some sort of demonic poison.
Under current circumstances, placing William under the tree brought no benefit, but it would, in fact,
harm him instead. Hence, he needed to cleanse the Ancestral Bodhi Tree first.
âThankfully, you have the Heavenly Self-Renewing Soil and the Chaos Tree with you!â Ancestor Bodhi
smiled joyfully. âWith the assistance of these two sacred objects, there shouldnât be any problem with
the recovery of my real body.â
It was far more than recovery. It was evolution. Ancestor Bodhi wore the appearance of a three year old
and cackled like a hen.
In that regard, Paul was not stingy either, sparing no effort to stabilize the level of Soul Planting in his
father as quickly as he could.

With his soul being immersed in the mind palace, not only did he attract a tremendous amount of
Chaos Chi and inject it in the Ancestral Bodhi Tree, but he even took out Yellow Obsidian Chi and used
it. Ancestor Bodhi was exalted. Although he had lived for eons, he was restricted from moving freely,
and he actually never got the chance to obtain that many heavenly treasures. He certainly knew about
the Yellow Obsidian Chi, but such a sacred object could only be found serendipitously.
With the aid of those sacred objects coupled with divine power, Paul used the Ultimate Book of
Medicine to remove the poison from the Ancestral Bodhi Tree, the effects were visible to the naked
eye.

Alex
Three days later, the demonic attribute on the Ancestral Bodhi Tree vanished. Even the soul imprints
left by Lord Buddha were all removed.
Paul asked, âSince Lord Buddha had cast Soul Planting on your real body, will the generated divided
soul find you again?â
Paul
Alex
Ancestor Bodhi said with a smile, âSo what if it finds me? I simply fell for that bast*rd elephantâs trick by
accident. Perhaps you can ask it. Letâs see if it can poison me again, alright?â
Paul was delighted. âThen, can you stop the Soul Planting?â
Paul
Alex
However, Ancestor Bodhi shook his head and looked at him as he said, âI can only stop mine, while I
can only temporarily stabilize the soul planted in your father. The specific issue will still depend on you.
Your father will be safe after you find out the mastermind behind the scenes and destroy him.
Moreover, you will benefit greatly.â
Ancestor Bodhiâs injuries were more severe, especially his spirit. He had even become a three year old
kid. If Paul had not inadvertently come to the battlefield of ancient Buddhism and found him, he would
have fallen into the demonic path over time, caused by the demonic poison and the inability to detoxify
it.
Paul
Alex
Hence, he needed to merge with the real body again now. Then, he would recuperate here.
âHow about this? Bring your father here. Iâll seal myself with him in the Ancestral Bodhi Tree when Iâm
in seclusion. In this way, Iâll be able to conceal the tracking of that caster. Consider it a rent for you,â
Ancestor Bodhi said.
Paul looked at him. He was still satisfied with such a treatment. However, speaking of rentâ¦
Paul
Alex
âAhem. Sir, letâs not talk about the rent. But look, I saved you and your real body. I even helped you
move the Heart Mountain over here. Letâs not talk about a great debt of gratitude. This in itself is a
great merit. You are the everlasting Ancestral Bodhi Tree, and even the Buddha had to walk your path.
So you should be expressing your heartfelt gratitude, right?â
Ancestor Bodhi lightly snorted. âI knew you had ulterior motives, but for the sake of Lady⦠Hey! Where
is milady?â
Paul froze for a moment. âMilady?â
Paul
Alex
Ancestor Bodhi made eyes at him as he said, âL-lady Rachel.â
Obviously the deceitful Shelly, she had nonetheless turned into Lady Rachel in the blink of an eye.
Turbulence stirred in Paulâs heart. How many identities did Shelly carry?
Paul
Alex
Ancestor Bodhiâs words did not seem exaggerated or hypocritical. If that were the case, it could only
mean one thing, Shellyâs status was so lofty that she even surpassed the Ancestral Bodhi Tree.
Paul pointed at a small bridge not far away. âOver there!â
Paul
Alex
Ancestor Bodhi was astonished at that time. Never did he expect that the Starlord of the West would be
next to him and even disguised herself as an ordinary looking small bridge.
