The Alternative Way of Enlightenment

Chapter 281: The Opening of Qishi Mansion

"It's okay, her consciousness is just imprisoned and sealed." Long Li glanced and found that Xia Yilin was fine.

"How did you plan to deal with her?" Liu Shan looked coldly at the group of old nuns.

"I originally planned to bring her back to the Western Desert, convert her, and let her devote herself to Buddhism." The skinny old nun answered truthfully.

After hearing the old nun's words, Liu Shan became even more furious, but since these people had all been converted, he couldn't vent his anger any longer!
"Let's go back to Daxia." There was anger in his heart and he wanted to vent it. There was also someone else who he wanted to teach a lesson to.

Afterwards, Liu Shan held Xia Yilin in his arms, turned into a ray of divine light, and flew back to the capital of Great Xia again.

The Xing character secret was extremely fast. The divine light fell again, and Liu Shan and his companions had already seen the capital of Daxia.

"You two, go find the Emperor of Great Xia." Long Li said to the two old nuns who had been injured in the previous battle with Liu Shan.

"Okay, master." The two old nuns bowed respectfully, and then headed to the Great Xia Imperial City as usual.

Liu Shan carried Xia Yilin and went directly to Xia Yiming's palace.

At this time, Xia Yiming was feeling uneasy and anxious.

He searched Qianlong Pavilion and sent people to search the imperial capital, but could not find Liu Shan's whereabouts. Later, he learned from his subordinates what had happened in the imperial city.

He guessed in his heart that it might be caused by Liu Shan, so now he is in the palace, waiting anxiously.

"Prince, Liu Shan is here."

After hearing what his men said, Xia Yiming immediately set off and ran outside.

He felt relieved only when he saw Liu Shan returning safely with Xia Yilin in his arms.

"She's been brought back intact! She's just sealed now, and everything will be fine once it's released." Liu Shan handed Xia Yilin in his arms to Xia Yiming.

Xia Yiming looked at his sister who was sleeping because of the seal, and his anxious heart finally calmed down.

Liu Shan looked at Xia Yiming beside him, and Xia Yilin who was still sleeping, and said slowly: "Brother Xia, I have stayed in Daxia for a long time, and I still have to join the Qishi Mansion, so I won't bother you anymore."

"Brother Liu."

Xia Yiming wanted to keep him, but after Liu Shan finished speaking, he glanced at Xia Yilin, turned around, performed the Xing character secret, and disappeared from the spot.

On the other side, the two old nuns followed Long Li's instructions and came to the Great Xia Imperial City again.

"We are Buddhist practitioners from the Western Desert, and we would like to pay an audience with the Emperor of Great Xia." The two old nuns said respectfully to the guards of the imperial city.

The guards were all surprised. Weren’t the attitudes of these old nuns very arrogant before?
Why did you change your attitude so quickly?

But these guards did not dare to delay, as they knew the emperor's attitude towards these old nuns.

"Master, please wait a moment. We will go and report right away." The leading guard saluted and then ordered his men to inform the emperor.

The guard hurriedly found the steward, and then the steward passed the message to Xia Yuange who was meditating in the hall.

At this moment, Xia Yuange was regretting in his heart that all his plans had failed. It would be better for him to just observe in secret and let nature take its course!

After receiving the news, the old nuns who had come before turned back?

Xia Yuange was also very confused, but he also wanted to repair his relationship with Ximo, so he summoned him directly.

Upon seeing that they were indeed the old nuns from before, Xia Yuange's face returned to its friendly look.

"I wonder why you, nuns, have returned." Xia Yuange approached the two old nuns, expressing a friendly attitude.

The two old nuns did not say anything, but moved closer to Xia Yuange.

Looking at the somewhat weird old nun, Xia Yuange felt a little uneasy, but he didn't know what was wrong.

"boom"

The old nun who was approaching didn't waste any time and just blew herself up. Blood and flesh splattered everywhere and even her consciousness dissipated.

The power generated by the explosion directly blew open the main hall, and all the surrounding ancient halls were implicated.

In an instant, countless ancient palaces were reduced to ruins. Countless Taoist patterns emerged from the ground and in the void, flashing dazzling divine light, suppressing the power of the explosion.

Xia Yuange was stunned. He did not expect that the two Buddhist practitioners would self-destruct. He was caught off guard and was seriously injured. His golden dragon robe was covered with blood, flesh and charred black from the previous explosion.

"not good!"

Feeling the horrific explosion, countless worshippers and royal family members rushed over here.

But all they could see was a ruin and Xia Yuange who was seriously injured in the ruins. The surroundings were in a mess and they did not see any enemies.

Liu Shan, who had already flown away from the capital of Daxia, naturally had no idea what was happening in the imperial city.

"Master." Long Li appeared again and came to Liu Shan.

"Successful, Xia Yuange is seriously injured." Long Li, who converted the old nuns, naturally knew everything that happened in the imperial city. She had already seen everything that happened in the imperial city through the eyes of the two old nuns.

Hearing this news, Liu Shan couldn't help but smile. "Great! I finally feel relieved. It would be really frustrating if I didn't take revenge."

This could be considered as a small lesson for Xia Yuange. Didn't he plan everything in secret?

He didn't want to offend Ximo, but wanted to win over Liu Shan, and he also wanted Liu Shan to offend Ximo.

Now, just let the Buddhist cultivator from Ximo self-destruct in front of him to make him prove that he killed the two old nuns. After that, just wait for Ximo to slowly cause trouble for him.

On the other side, Xia Yilin also woke up after being unsealed by her brother.

At this time, Xia Yilin was very confused. How did she return to her brother's palace?

"Yilin, are you okay?" Xia Yiming asked worriedly.

"It's okay, where are my uncle and the others?" Xia Yilin was still confused.

"They returned to the Western Desert." Xia Yiming was not clear about the specific situation, but since Liu Shan brought Xia Yilin back, the people of the Western Desert would definitely have a bad end.

Xia Yilin stared at her brother. She was naive, but not stupid.

She knew the personalities of her uncles. They were very domineering and ruthless. They would never return to the Western Desert alone without bringing her back.

"Brother, what's going on? Why would my uncle and the others return to Western Desert alone?" Xia Yilin stared at her brother with her big eyes, trying to read something from his face.

"It was Brother Liu who brought you back." Xia Yiming didn't want to lie to his naive sister, so he told her everything he knew.

Those old nuns in the Western Desert forcefully took my sister away. Later, Liu Shan took action and brought Xia Yilin back safely.

There was no movement in the palace, which made Xia Yiming very disappointed. He also had some guesses in his mind, and he estimated that his father must have been behind this.

Afterwards, Liu Shan left without hesitation. He must have known something, so he didn't want to get involved in Daxia's affairs anymore.

Xia Yilin, who knew everything, remained silent for a long time.

Zhongzhou, the center of the five regions of Beidou, has endless legends.

The opening of the House of Extraordinary Men is another opportunity for the world's heroes to gather and compete. The younger generation is all attracted to it, and as long as they have the combat power of a Saint Son, they can join the House of Extraordinary Men.

Even though Liu Shan had been invited before, he still had to be tested if he wanted to join the Qi Shi Mansion.

The Qishi Mansion is located among the sacred mountains, with countless strange peaks and rocks, sacred trees and magical medicines. It is like a pure land on earth, which is shocking.

Liu Shan had arrived at the foot of the mountain of Qishi Mansion early. He did not expect that there were already tens of thousands of people gathered here before the event even started. All of them were full of fighting spirit and had extraordinary talents. They should be the descendants of geniuses from various places and sects.

These monks were the center of attention in their local area, but when they came to the Mansion of Strange Men, they were just like everyone else and there was nothing special about them.

There are tens of thousands of geniuses gathered here, but in fact, there are probably only hundreds of them who can actually join the House of Extraordinary People.

Only one out of a hundred geniuses can be selected, which shows how fierce the competition will be. Everyone is a hero and no one is willing to be inferior to others.

Liu Shan quietly mingled among the crowd, like an ordinary passerby, looking at all the geniuses everywhere.

It is worthy of the fact that the golden age is about to come. Mixing in the crowd, through the sensing of the Heaven-Swallowing Magic Art, many peculiar physiques are discovered. The Heaven-Swallowing Magic Art keeps throbbing, wanting to devour everyone.

As the sun rose and the moon set, the Qi Shi Mansion was finally opened under the gaze of tens of thousands of geniuses.

"The Qishi Mansion will only be open for one month!"

"During this month, those who are confident can defend the ring on their own. As long as no one dares to challenge them again on that day, they can directly join the Qishi Mansion."

"You can also challenge other champions. As long as you defeat the champion and no one continues to challenge you, you can join the Qishi Mansion."

"In the competition and in defending the ring, only the individual realm and combat power are considered. No extra means are allowed, and the use of forbidden weapons or Taoist weapons that far exceed one's strength is prohibited!"

An old man with white hair and beard walked out of the Qishi Mansion. He looked at all the geniuses below and introduced them in a gentle voice.

The strange thing was that his voice was obviously very soft, but it was easily heard throughout the entire venue, suppressing the noisy noise of tens of thousands of people and reaching directly into everyone's ears.

Liu Shan kept looking around. He was not in a hurry at all about challenging or defending the challenge.

The geniuses of the time are only at the Dragon Transformation Stage, but he has already reached the Half-Step Great Power Stage, which has far surpassed his peers. His combat power is also not weak, so his mentality is very peaceful. If he wants to join the House of Extraordinary Scholars, he can do so at any time.

After the old man from Qi Shi Mansion finished speaking, he glanced around and then waved his hand casually. Ten super-large arenas appeared in the void, which were large enough for the younger generation to display their fighting skills.

Soon, ten confident young geniuses flew onto the stage. Liu Shan only took a quick glance and knew that these were just extras and would never be able to join the Qi Shi Mansion.

Each of them is only at the fourth level, and some have not even reached the peak. Even if they are very talented and powerful, other dragon-transforming geniuses can easily defeat them.

Sure enough, it wasn't long before all these monks who had come forward were swept off the stage.

The battle continued. Many champions had been replaced on the arena. Now each of them had reached the level of Dragon Transformation and their combat power was quite good. Some of their secret techniques were so amazing that even Liu Shan was amazed after seeing them.

Time continued to pass, and Liu Shan just observed silently. He had no intention of going on stage. He planned to observe for a while longer and then find all the special physiques.
