Starting from the sculpture of Buddha statues in Lanruo Temple

Chapter 140 Soul Sacrifice
Li Fengning and Taoist Baimei were silent in the spacious stone room, which was faintly illuminated by the green light, watching Zunsheng's actions.

Zunsheng's hands suddenly moved, his robe sleeves fluttered, and with a hunting sound, he pinched a Buddha seal.

Immediately, his lips moved slightly, and bursts of Zen chant came out of his mouth, swaying slowly, towards Li Fengning's palm.

But Mr. Fang in [Buddhist Kingdom in the Hand] was not moved at all, he was still sitting cross-legged quietly, as if he was recovering his mana.

"Abbot Zunsheng, how are you doing? Can you gain something?" Li Fengning's eyes left Mr. Fang's calm face and looked at Zunsheng.

Contrary to the calm Mr. Fang, there are blue veins on Zun Sheng's forehead, and fine beads of sweat ooze from his bald head.

Zun Sheng didn't answer, and after a while, he stopped singing, took a deep breath, opened his hands, and slowly recovered.

Li Fengning and Taoist Baimei stared at the sweaty old abbot.

"For some reason, it doesn't work at all." Zun Sheng slowly opened his eyes.

Abbot, your morality is too low... Li Fengning covered his eyes with his hands in his heart.

Just now, while watching the excitement, Li Fengning was not idle, he secretly wrote down the Buddhist seal and Zen chants that Zun Sheng made.

For some reason, the deeper his practice, the stronger his memory, and those formulas and handprints can be memorized in his mind as long as he reads them once.

Suddenly, a golden light flashed in the stone room, and a human-sized Thousand-Handed Avalokitesvara suddenly appeared.

Casting the spell of the right person requires both hands to apply the Buddha's seal, but Li Fengning's right hand needs to maintain the [Buddhist Kingdom in the palm], and he can only manifest the Thousand-Handed Avalokitesvara to do it for him.

The Thousand-Handed Avalokitesvara Buddha's light is flowing, the treasure is solemn, and he looks down at Li Fengning's palm kindly with his eyebrows down.

Amidst the dumbfounded expressions of the white-browed Taoist and Zunsheng, the two central hands of Avalokitesvara, just like Zunsheng just now, are pinching the seal of Buddha.

Li Fengning's lips moved slightly, and bursts of Chan chant came out of his mouth, and the drumming Buddhist Zen spirit in it was more majestic than that of Shicai Zunsheng.

"Benefactor Li is really a man of God..." Zun Sheng saw Li Fengning saw the spell he cast once, and immediately learned it, his eyes widened, and he secretly sighed in his heart.

Seeing this scene, Taoist Baimei unconsciously seeped a drop of sweat from his head, dripping down between the two long white eyebrows. He thought to himself that Li Fengning has such ability, so the way he opened the restriction before, wouldn't it be all of them? Learned by Li Fengning?
If so, wouldn't all the restrictions on Mount Emei be useless to Li Fengning?
Zen singing is leisurely heading towards [Buddhist Kingdom in the Palm].

Sitting cross-legged in [Buddhist Kingdom in the Palm], Mr. Fang suddenly opened his eyes when he heard the chanting, with a solemn look flashing in his brows.

The chanting carried Li Fengning's mana, and it surrounded Mr. Fang like a surging wave, and it was about to penetrate into Mr. Fang's primordial spirit.

But at the next moment, Mr. Fang pinched the Buddha's seal just like Li Fengning's Avalokitesvara, his lips moved slightly, and he chanted like Li Fengning.

Two strands of Zen singing, you come and go, you push and push, intertwined in the air.

An invisible force radiated from Mr. Fang's body, slowly pushing away Li Fengning's mana that was about to succeed.

"Sure enough, Mr. Fang knows this spell, and he is much more proficient than me and Zunsheng." After Li Fengning knew the result, he stopped singing, put away the Thousand-Handed Avalokitesvara, and put away [Buddha in the Palm] , with his right hand clenched into a fist.

He looked at the astonished white-browed Taoist and Zun Sheng, sorted them out and said:

"We currently know three things:

"One, Mr. Fang is exactly the same as the legendary Patriarch of Emei.

"Second, Mr. Fang is familiar with Emei's Taiqing Immortal Technique.

"Three, Mr. Fang is also familiar with the spells of Mount Wutai.

"So, what is the relationship between the Patriarch of Emei and the Patriarch of Mount Wutai?

"Is it the same person, or two clones of one person?"

Taoist Baimei and Zunsheng looked at each other.

Suddenly, Taoist Baimei said: "If you want to search for souls, I still know a spell."

Li Fengning looked at Taoist Baimei.

Zunsheng's face remained the same, he just clasped his palms together and said "Amitabha".

"To be exact, it's a sorcery." Taoist Baimei added, looking at Li Fengning.

"So what about sorcery? No matter whether it's orthodox or sorcery, it's a good technique if you can successfully search for the soul. Feel free to talk about it." Li Fengning said.

Baimei Daoist said: "One thousand and seven hundred years ago, an extraterrestrial demon appeared in the Central Plains.

"At that time, the monks called it 'Soul Demon', and the 'Soul Eater Sect' was founded by him.

"Now there are still remnants of the 'Soul Eater Sect' in the Central Plains. The spells they practice and the belief they worship are this 'Soul Demon'."

It's another extraterrestrial demon... Li Fengning listened, and suddenly remembered that Mr. Fang in the palm of his right hand also called himself an extraterritorial demon.

While thinking, I heard the white-browed Taoist continue:
"This 'Soul Demon' possesses many innate abilities.

"One of the most powerful innate supernatural powers is to extract a person's soul or primordial spirit from the person's body.

"Then sacrifice this soul or primordial spirit, and you can get the Tao of this soul or primordial spirit, and you can also know everything that this soul or primordial spirit knows."

The implication is to use Mr. Fang's primordial spirit as a sacrifice, and you will know everything he knows... Li Fengning's eyes lit up, and he said to Taoist Baimei: "How should I use this supernatural power?"

Baimei Taoist said: "I don't know."

Li Fengning stared at him, waiting for the old Taoist to continue.

The white-browed Taoist continued: "After the 'Soul Demon' raged in the Central Plains for decades, he was wiped out by monks, and the remnants of his 'Soul Eater Sect' hid in the Central Plains.

"After the extraterrestrial demons are wiped out, beliefs will still remain in this world, and future generations can gain magical powers by worshiping the beliefs of the extraterritorial demons.

"'Soul Demon' is no exception, the fanatics who worship him are the people developed by the remnants of the 'Soul Eater Sect'.

"500 years ago, there was a person from the 'Soul Eater', named Linghu Huang. He was not an extraterrestrial demon, but he was extremely fanatical in his belief in 'Soul Demon', and he was extremely talented. He almost learned about 'Soul Demon'. 'The supernatural powers at the beginning included the 'soul sacrifice' I just mentioned.

"At that time, Linghu Huang caused chaos in Shu and killed many upright disciples.

"In the end, it was the previous generation of Emei Headmaster and the previous generation of Wutai Mountain Abbot who joined forces to subdue him."

Li Fengning said: "So, both of your sects have obtained that spell?" He thought: "Why are you just saying now, you are so tired that you have wasted so much effort before."

"No." Who knows, Taoist Baimei replied: "The previous generation of Emei Headmaster and the previous generation of Wutai Mountain Abbot did not get rid of this Linghu Huang, but sealed him in the Emei Forbidden Land."
