Chapter 2197 Meditation

The bodhi tree was covered by a bright Buddha light. No one could see it clearly before because they were too far away.

But now that they stood close to the bodhi tree, they could look at it carefully. It horrified them to see that the branches of the bodhi tree were brimming with corpses. They took a step back and looked at each other.

Most of the corpses had decomposed while some had dried-up. They were unrecognizable; it was impossible to identify them.

Countless dead bodies hung on the bodhi tree, as if they were dead leaves waiting to fall on the ground.

"Look! That's the body of Lorenzo and the others!"

a cultivator at the Heavenly Grotto Realm shouted in horror.

Curious, the people stepped closer and examined the dead bodies carefully. Only then did they recognize some of the bodies. Some of them were people who died not too long ago.

Among them were nine masters at the Heavenly Grotto Realm. As they scrutinized the dead bodies, they realized that the strange branches killed them.

The nine cultivators at the Heavenly Grotto Realm were killed by the strange branches that appeared out of nowhere while they were fighting Austin.

Now, their bodies hung lifeless on the branches of the bodhi tree.

It only meant that the strange branches which appeared during the fight with Austin were from this bodhi tree.

"Look! The black bear!"

Austin saw a familiar, huge figure. He almost choked. It was the black bear that chased him in the outside area.

It was a terrifying creature. Even a cultivator like Brady was no match for it.

Its skin used to be black and glittered in the sunlight. Now, it was dry and colorless. It had wasted away and was no longer terrifying to look at.

Blood was still dripping from the black bear's strong body.

'Well, it looks like, all the creatures who fought within a certain distance or near this bodhi tree suffered a terrible death from its branches.'

This shocked Austin.

"Our ancestor from the South Marine Sect!

I can't believe it! She is the eighth sect leader of our South Marine Sect, the Ethereal Saintess!"

the sect leader of the South Marine Sect suddenly exclaimed.

Everyone followed her gaze, and the crowd saw the golden body of a dead nun. Her dead body was hanging on some branches of the giant tree. Her body was still covered in a golden robe.

This was the sacred body of a nun. It seemed that she had been dead for a long time,

ined the leaves closely.

"It is said that if people cultivate under the bodhi tree, they will be greatly enlightened,"

the sect leader of the South Marine Sect mumbled to herself. Full of anticipation, she sat cross-legged under the tree and began to meditate.

The Buddha Mountain was located near the headquarters of the South Marine Sect and was connected to all kinds of legends of the Buddhist.

Thus, the sect leader of the South Marine Sect knew a lot about this bodhi tree.

She knew it would be a great opportunity for her to cultivate and comprehend under the bodhi tree.

Now that the bodhi tree was right in front of her, this was a rare opportunity she would not dare miss.

The other masters at the Heavenly Grotto Realm could not help but look at each other.

Soon, all the people found a place and sat down with their legs crossed. They followed the sect leader of the South Marine Sect and began to meditate.

Everyone believed the sect leader of the South Marine Sect and did not want to miss this great opportunity.

"Master, what should we do? Should we leave or try to meditate?"

Brady asked, looking at Austin.

"I think she's right. Let's also meditate,"

Austin said.

The sect leader of the South Marine Sect knew a lot about this bodhi tree.

There must be a good reason for her to stay and meditate under this tree.

Austin wanted to try it. Perhaps, this bodhi tree had some great opportunities that could help advance his skills and power.

Austin and Brady also found a place and sat cross-legged under the bodhi tree. They closed their eyes and started to meditate.
