Chapter 338 Chen Yan’s new Dao Fruit!

"Not dead yet?"

On the side, Chen Yan couldn't help but frown when he heard what Master Bodhidharma said. He looked at the dragon corpse in front of him with a frown in silence.

Shi Wen, who was not far away, also cried out in disbelief:
"What?! This old loach is not dead yet?!"

But Master Bodhidharma shook his head: "Yes and no."

Shi Wen was completely bewildered:
"What do you mean?"

"This Zhujiang Dragon King is actually not a monster from this realm. He was born in this world by chance. Heaven gave him a great magical power, Immortality, which was lacking. Although this dragon has not fully mastered it, he has already learned three-tenths of the great magical power of Immortality."

It’s not a monster from this realm…

Chen Yan, who was standing by, felt a slight movement in his heart when he heard these words.

As he expected, this Zhujiang Dragon King was indeed from another world like him.

At the same time, Chen Yan seemed to feel that the Master Bodhidharma in front of him seemed to have known about this matter for a long time. Not only that, judging from Master Bodhidharma's words, he himself did not seem to be from this world.

Otherwise, Master Bodhidharma would not have used these four words to describe it.

Just as Chen Yan's mind was full of thoughts, the voice of Master Bodhidharma continued.

I saw that Patriarch Bodhidharma spoke without any impatience. On the side, whether it was Chen Yan, Shi Wen, or even the young man in white robes who was farther away, they all pricked up their ears and eavesdropped:

“To say it is dead is because both its body and soul are dead. However, to say it is not dead is because although its body and soul are gone, its great magical power, Immortality, still exists. It has also merged with this great magical power…”

After hearing this, some thoughts gradually emerged in Chen Yan's mind, and he seemed to understand what Master Bodhidharma wanted to express.

He couldn't help but look at Master Bodhidharma, and then said:

"So, this old dragon has transformed into the Tao... the Great Divine Power, Immortality?"

Bodhidharma nodded and said, "That's right. It has merged with the immortal magical power, which is the Tao Fruit Immortality. Therefore, it died, but it is also not dead."

Hearing this, Chen Yan frowned deeply and locked his eyes:

"so what should I do now?"

Then, Chen Yan asked with some doubt:

"If, I mean if, someone refines this Dao Fruit, will this old dragon be able to revive through its body?"

Frankly speaking, Chen Yan originally had some thoughts about this Dao Fruit: Immortality.

After all, no one would complain about having too many Dao fruits in their possession.

But after hearing what Zhujiang Old Dragon said, he no longer had any idea about this Dao Fruit: Immortality.

What would happen if you were replaced by someone else while using it?
Farther away, the young man in white robe who was eavesdropping furtively had a blank look in his eyes.

What great supernatural power?
What is the fruit of the Tao?
I know every word they say, so why can't I understand them when they are put together?
Chen Yan did not have the time to explain, but instead looked intently at the Patriarch Bodhidharma opposite him.

I only heard Master Bodhidharma say:

"Although it won't take over the body like the other creatures, it will subtly affect its character. If it is not properly controlled, it is not impossible for it to turn into a brand new Zhujiang Dragon King in the end."

At this point, Bodhidharma glanced at Chen Yan, as if he saw through Chen Yan's thoughts, and added:
"In addition, because the Zhujiang Dragon King has merged into this Dao Fruit, this Immortal Dao Fruit has also undergone some changes. Under the influence of the Zhujiang Dragon King, this Immortal Dao Fruit will resist and even rebel against a thinking individual refining it."

"Resisting a thinking individual from refining it?"

Chen Yan didn't feel the slightest bit of embarrassment at having his little secret thoughts exposed, his expression didn't change at all, instead, his eyes showed a thoughtful look.

Finally, he seemed to understand something, and his face showed enlightenment:

"I see. So... this Immortal Dao Fruit can only..."

"Only what?"

Shi Wen on the side hurriedly urged.

He had given up thinking; he simply couldn't understand what his fellow brothers and teacher were talking about.

But what made Shi Wen slightly better than the young man in white robe was that at least he could hear that the Dao fruit mentioned by his senior brother and teacher was referring to the great supernatural power similar to his teacher's unique and unparalleled skills.

I just don't understand the specific content of their conversation.

Hearing Shi Wen's question, Chen Yan glanced at Shi Wen, then said with a thoughtful look in his eyes:
"This means that this Dao Fruit can only be refined by an unborn fetus. Only an unborn fetus has no thoughts, so this old dragon will naturally not have any resistance."

Shi Wen was not a fool, his mind was very flexible, he understood the key point immediately, and cursed:
"This old loach is so vicious and cunning!"

Chen Yan on the side also nodded in agreement.

Because just as Master Bodhidharma said, this immortal fruit of Tao is equivalent to possessing the thinking of Zhujiang Old Dragon.

But this old dragon only chooses unborn fetuses as its targets. How can these unborn fetuses resist the mental erosion of this old dragon?

"Alright, I will take care of this Dao Fruit myself."

But at this time, Master Bodhidharma on the opposite side put away the dragon ball, turned around, looked at Shi Wen on the side and said:

"Shi Wen, you should go to Binjiang City first and inform Binjiang City Lord Han Tong about what happened. In addition, you should also help appease the people and try to minimize the impact of the death of Zhujiang Dragon King."

"Yes! I will do it right away."

Shi Wen did not dare to be negligent. He clasped his hands together and nodded respectfully.

Then he looked at Chen Yan again, and after seeing Chen Yan nod, he nodded as well and headed towards Binjiang City.

Then, Master Bodhidharma looked at the young man in white robe and the young boy next to him.

Seeing the look from the legendary Grandmaster Bodhidharma, the young man in white robes blushed with excitement, and almost couldn't control himself:
"Grandmaster Damo..."

Bodhidharma smiled slightly:
"Meeting is destiny. I know your intention. If you are willing, you can go to Dafoshan to find me in three days."

"Yes! Disciple is willing!"

The young man in white robe quickly kowtowed with his fellow apprentice, the excitement in his eyes evident.

On the other hand, the young boy at the side, who looked confused and didn't seem to understand the situation, knelt down and kowtowed along with his senior brother.

Almost all the people in Dongyang Dao have the goal of becoming disciples of Dafoshan. Today, he and his fellow apprentice can realize it. How can he not be excited?
He was not afraid that his own master would blame him.

Because in the entire Dongyang Dao martial arts world, there is no sect that is unwilling to have its disciples worship at Dafoshan.

If possible, they would even hope that more and more disciples would join Dafoshan.

Master Bodhidharma smiled and nodded.

The young man in white robe was very perceptive. Seeing Master Bodhidharma's expression, he understood that Master Bodhidharma had something to say to Chen Yan alone.

Therefore, he tactfully pulled his fellow apprentice along and respectfully withdrew, saying:
"The disciple retire."

"Go."

Bodhidharma nodded with a smile.

Then, the young man in white robe looked at Chen Yan in awe, and couldn't help but said:
"Master Shikong...Brother, I will leave first."

Chen Yan nodded.

Then, the young man in white robe brought his fellow apprentice and set out for Dafoshan.

With the departure of the young man and boy in white robe, only Chen Yan and Bodhidharma were left at the entire dock.

Chen Yan looked at the plain-looking old monk opposite him and had countless questions in his mind that he wanted to ask.

Is this world real or fake? If it is real, where is it?

If it is false, then did the incident with the Dragon King of Zhujiang happen in the past, present, or future?
If it is true or false, then everything he had experienced before, from going to the Dragon Palace of the Zhujiang Dragon King to finally lying on the river bank, were all these what the real Shikong had experienced?

So what is Chen Yan doing?
A memory of Bodhidharma?
Looking at the old monk in front of him with complicated eyes, Chen Yan opened his mouth:

"teacher……"

At this moment——

boom!
There was an earth-shattering roar.

Of course, this roar only occurred in Chen Yan's ears.

Hearing this roar, Chen Yan sighed in his heart.

It seems that he is leaving completely.

Then, before Chen Yan could say goodbye to the Patriarch Bodhidharma in front of him.

"Kakaka-"

There was a sound like a broken glass.

Then, Chen Yan saw the surrounding scenery receding like a kaleidoscope.

The pedestrians on the road, the taverns on the street, the people coming and going...all of this seemed to be frozen in an instant. Everyone stopped moving, and then quickly retreated. In Chen Yan's vision, it gradually turned into darkness.

Apart from……

The Bodhidharma in front of us!
Chen Yan was somewhat shocked and confused:
"teacher……"

But he saw Bodhidharma standing in the darkness. Seeing Chen Yan looking at him, Bodhidharma smiled slightly:
"How should I address you, the benefactor?"

Hearing these words, Chen Yan's heart sank, realizing that the Master Bodhidharma in front of him had already seen through everything.

Then, Chen Yan hurriedly said respectfully:

"Master, you can just call me Chen Yan."

Patriarch Bodhidharma smiled slightly and said, "I'm sure Mr. Chen has many questions at this moment."

Chen Yan nodded repeatedly, and then asked the question that concerned him most at the moment:
"Master, may I ask, everything that I just experienced... is it true or false?"

"Of course it's true."

Bodhidharma said:
"Everything that Donor Chen experienced was real, but it was also different..."

"What's the difference?"

Chen Yan was confused.

I saw the Patriarch Bodhidharma on the opposite side nodded and explained:

"It is said to be real because it all happened in Dongyang Realm. It is said to be different because it did not happen in the present of Benefactor Chen, but in my past..."

"The Master's past?"

Chen Yan frowned and thought:
"Could it be that everything in the world that I have experienced is your past memory, Master?"

Bodhidharma nodded:

"That's right. I guess Mr. Chen must have come into contact with the relics left by me after my death, which is why he came into this memory."

It was after coming into contact with the relics left by my monk after his death that he came into this memory?

Chen Yan just felt that this sentence contained too much information, so much that it made his head hurt.

"Wait! Master, you just said that you have passed away?!"

Chen Yan's eyes widened, filled with disbelief.

Bodhidharma smiled and nodded:

"Since Mr. Chen can appear here, it means that you have come into contact with my relics, and I have naturally passed away."

Chen Yan still couldn't hide the shock in his eyes and said:
"So Master, you are dead now? No, Master, you knew you would die?"

Bodhidharma smiled, and the smile on his face did not diminish:

"I will die naturally, even immortals and Buddhas with infinite life spans will die, and I am no exception."

Chen Yan didn't say anything for a long time. He felt as if his brain was filled with a vast amount of information at that moment, and he was unable to react for a moment.

After a long while, after digesting what Bodhidharma said, Chen Yan calmed down a little. He looked at Bodhidharma opposite him and asked the question in his heart:
"Then what is your purpose, Master?"

"Purpose?"

Master Bodhidharma repeated this sentence, and then he took out a full and translucent bead from his sleeve.

"This is……"

When Chen Yan saw this familiar bead, he recognized it immediately.

This bead is none other than the new "Tao Fruit" that was merged with the Tao Fruit·Immortality after the death of Zhujiang Old Dragon!
"This is my goal."

"Junior doesn't understand."

Looking at the "Immortal Fruit" in the old monk's hand, the doubt on Chen Yan's face remained unchanged.

Bodhidharma did not show any impatience and patiently explained:

"In fact, I have something to ask of you, Benefactor Chen. I want to get rid of you and find a new owner for this Dao Fruit 'Immortality', who can protect it, refine the demonic nature in it, and allow it to grow safely."

Chen Yan suddenly realized and understood the purpose of Bodhidharma.

To put it bluntly, they wanted him to find an unborn fetus and deliver the immortal fruit into it.

Then help the fetus grow to prevent Zhujiang Laolong's thoughts from affecting the newborn.

"Why doesn't the Master go by himself?"

Chen Yan was puzzled. Shouldn't this be an easy task for Master Bodhidharma?

But the Patriarch Bodhidharma on the other side glanced at him and said:

"I'm already dead, so there's naturally no way to find a new owner for it."

"Forehead……"

Chen Yan didn't know what to say.

Indeed, how can a dead person find a new owner for this Immortal Fruit?

Then, I heard the Patriarch Bodhidharma continue:
"Of course, I won't let Mr. Chen's help be in vain."

Before he finished speaking, Bodhidharma raised his right hand, and then a bright white light flashed on the tip of his index finger.

Then, the white fluorescence fell off from the fingertips of Bodhidharma and flew to Chen Yan.

Before Chen Yan could ask, he heard the Patriarch Bodhidharma on the other side explain:
"This is the Dao Fruit 'Dharma Throwing the Whale' that I created. If you don't mind, I will give it to you. Just consider it as a reward for your trouble."
