Mortal Bones

"For the Supreme Purity...to seek...the Buddha's fate?"

After Xu Taiping shouted these words, all the monks watching the battle, including the three from Yuhengshan, were speechless.

Because no one expected that Xu Taiping would go through many dangers and climb to the top of Lingjiu Peak just to seek the elusive power of Buddha fate.

Not to mention that the power of the Pure Buddha has been cut off for millions of years.

Even if the power of the connection with the Supreme Pure Buddha has not been cut off, if one wants to seek a Buddhist inheritance from a foreign Buddhist country, only eminent monks who have attained enlightenment and are rare in Buddhism can do so.

To put it ten thousand steps back, even if he could obtain the power of Buddha, what good would it do to Xu Taiping, a Taoist monk?

So some monks guessed:

"Xu Taiping may only be seeking the power of Buddhism on the surface, but he is actually seeking a great opportunity related to Buddhism for himself!"

This view was immediately recognized by many monks watching the battle in front of the spiritual mirror——

"Such a great opportunity cannot be obtained without the power of attracting the Buddha. Just thinking about it makes the hair on the body stand up!"

"Xu Taiping's behavior is strange and unusual. The more you look at it, the more you realize it's trying to be mysterious!"

"Anyway, all in all, I'm looking forward to having some good shows to watch next!"

And when everyone saw that there was no abnormality in the sky above their heads, more and more monks believed in this speculation.

Even a few people in Yuheng Mountain were a little shaken at this time.

However, Xu Taiping, who was in the shadow of the Moon Shadow Stone above his head, did not waver at all.

After he rested for a moment and recovered some of his energy and blood, he once again raised the Buddha statue in his hand with firm eyes and said loudly:

"Zhenwu, Qingxuan and Xu Taiping, today seek a Buddhist fate for this supreme being, and also hope that the Buddhas in other Buddhist countries will do the same!"

But just like before, there was no response from the sky.

When Shihu Tianjun of Yuheng Mountain saw this, he immediately picked up the jade slip in his hand with a wry smile and said:

"Old Niu, what excited you just now, could it be that Xu Taiping sought the Buddha's fate for the Supreme Being?"

Just like the previous questions, the old cow on the other side of the jade slip did not respond.

Shihu Tianjun didn't pay attention and continued to transmit messages to the jade slip:

"If it were other things, it might be possible, but in this case, I can only say that it is courageous."

There was still no response from the other end of the jade slip.

At this time, Xu Taiping, who was in the shadow of the Moon Shadow Stone, once again raised the Buddha statue in his hand and said loudly:

"Buddhas from outside the territory, Zhenwu Qingxuan and Xu Taiping, are here today to seek a Buddhist inheritance, and I hope it will be fulfilled!"

"This time, not only was there no reaction in the sky, but a deep red fire of Buddhist karma suddenly appeared on the lotus platform under my feet."

"boom!"

Under the burning fire of this karma, the layers of protective aura around Xu Taiping were burned to pieces one after another.

Seeing this, Shihu Tianjun immediately frowned and said:

"I didn't expect that after so many years, the fire of karma that helped the eminent monk sit on the lotus platform would still not be extinguished."

After seeing the karma fire rising from the lotus platform, a group of monks also talked about it——

"Since there are still relics of Buddhist karma on this lotus platform, it is even more possible that there is a great opportunity for Buddhism here!"

"I'm becoming more and more curious now, what exactly is this great opportunity on Lingjiu Peak!"

In addition to the monks who were looking forward to seeing the outcome of that great opportunity, there were also many monks who shouted in the spiritual mirror and asked about the origin and power of the Buddhist karma fire.

When Xia Houyou heard this, he immediately frowned and said:

"Although this Buddhist karmic fire does little harm to the physical body, its burning of the soul is far stronger than real fire. It is not as harmless as it seems on the surface."

When Xia Houyou said this, Xu Taiping was standing on the lotus platform, his face obviously became distorted.

Xiahou Qingyuan crossed his arms and said expressionlessly:

"But under normal circumstances, if a monk in the Jingtian Realm can persist in a cup of tea, there will still be no problem."

Xia Houyou didn't answer, but stared at Xu Taiping in the shadow.

At this time, Xu Taiping, after adjusting his breath several times, once again raised the Buddha statue in his hand and said loudly:

"Zhenwu Qingxuan Xu Taiping seeks the power of a Buddha connection from the Buddhas outside the realm for this supreme being!"

Almost at the same time as he finished speaking, the karma fire on the lotus platform under his feet suddenly made a "chang" sound and the flames grew a little stronger.

But Xu Taiping seemed to be fighting against the fire of karma. Not only did he not jump off the lotus platform to rest for a while, but he did not even adjust his breath. He held up the Buddha statue that he had not put down in his hand and continued to speak loudly:

"Zhenwu Qingxuan Xu Taiping seeks the power of a Buddha connection from the Buddhas outside the realm for this supreme being!"

But even so, there was still no response from the sky above.

For a time, many of the monks watching the battle who had originally firmly believed that Xu Taiping was seeking a great opportunity began to doubt Xu Taiping's motives for this trip again.

Some monks even felt that Xu Taiping's move had no deep meaning and he just wanted to tease the people in front of the spiritual mirror.

This conjecture, after Xu Taiping shouted dozens of times in a row, but the sky above his head still did not respond, gradually reached its peak with the shouting in the spiritual mirror in the teahouse.

A monk in the tea house even concluded:

"This Xu Taiping is just teasing us!"

Even Shihu Tianjun, who originally had a lot of expectations for Xu Taiping, was a little disappointed at this time and said: "This Xu Taiping, even if he is somewhat dissatisfied with Shangqing's cultivation, should not play with them like this."

Xiahou Qingyuan snorted coldly and said:

"With this kind of character, no matter how talented you are, you will definitely not be able to go far in the future."

When he said this, he turned to glance at Xia Houyou, wanting to see her expression at this time.

However, what made Xiahou Qingyuan a little disappointed was that at this moment, Xiahouyou's face not only did not look disappointed at all, but became more and more excited.

As if aware of Xiahou Qingyuan's gaze, Xiahou You said without looking back:

"Second brother, although this is just my hunch, I think you are all wrong."

Xiahou Qingyuan frowned and asked:

"What's wrong?"

Xia Houyou still replied without looking back:

"Why can't Xu Taiping really seek a path to Buddhahood for the Pure Realm?"

Before Xiahou Qingyuan could open his mouth to refute, he saw Xu Taiping in the shadow of the Moon Shadow Stone, once again raising the Buddha statue in his hand high and loudly saying:

"Zhenwu Qingxuan Xu Taiping asked the Buddhas outside the territory to seek the power of a Buddha connection for this supreme being, and I hope it will come true!"

Hearing this, Xiahou Qingyuan sneered and said:

"What's the point of asking for something that doesn't even exist in this world, other than deliberately playing tricks on us?"

As if responding to Xiahou Qingyuan's words from a distance, Xu Taiping once again raised the Buddha statue in his hand high and roared with all his strength toward the sky.

Seeing this, Xiahou Qingyuan immediately curled his lips and said:

"Even if he shouts a thousand or ten thousand times, there won't be any..."

"boom!--"

Before Xiahou Qingyuan could say the word "reaction", a deafening sound of explosion came from the shadow of the Moon Shadow Stone above his head, interrupting him.

Then, the faces of Xiahou Qingyuan and other monks all turned into expressions of horror and horror.

Because as the sound of the explosion sounded just now, circles of clouds transformed by Buddha's light suddenly appeared in the center of the sky directly opposite the Lingjiu Peak.

This is the most common auspicious cloud pattern on the robes or cassocks of Buddhist disciples.

More importantly, according to previous rumors related to the power of Buddha's fate, every time the Buddha's fate comes in an overseas Buddhist country, it will be accompanied by the appearance of auspicious clouds.

"Could it be said that the power of Buddha's fate will really come down at this time?"

"No way, since the power of Buddha's destiny was severed, Buddhist disciples have tried countless times, but they have failed to attract the power of Buddha's destiny again. Xu Taiping, a Taoist disciple, was able to attract the power of Buddhism after just one attempt. Come down?"

All the monks watching the battle in the teahouse also looked horrified at this time.

"boom!"

Just as the monks in the tea house were discussing, another huge explosion came from the shadow of the Moon Shadow Stone above their heads.

In an instant, I saw the circles of auspicious clouds in the center of the sky at the top of Lingjiu Peak suddenly expanded again amidst the explosion.

At the same time, there were wisps of Buddha's light spreading along the circles of auspicious clouds.

For a moment, in the originally gloomy sky at the top of Lingjiu Peak, auspicious clouds rolled in and the Buddha's light dimmed.

It is like a scene of the prosperous Buddhist country.

At this moment, all the monks, including Shihu Tianjun, seemed to be speechless, staring unblinkingly at the moon shadow stone shadow or spiritual mirror above their heads.

After a long time, a monk was heard exclaiming in the teahouse with a tone full of disbelief:

"He really invited the Buddha to inherit the inheritance!"

Immediately, the monk added and corrected:

"Xu Taiping really invited a Buddhist inheritance!"

Immediately, there was an uproar in the teahouse.

Similarly, the shouts of the monks watching the battle were constantly heard in the spiritual mirror.

Obviously, all the monks watching the battle in Five Directions World could not have expected in their dreams that Xu Taiping would actually usher in a Buddhist inheritance.

However, Shihu Tianjun of Yuheng Mountain carefully compared the scene of auspicious clouds filling the sky in the shadow of the Moon Shadow Stone at the moment with the scene of the Buddha's destiny descending in the secret moon shadow stone of Yuheng Mountain, and suddenly He shook his head solemnly and said:

"This is indeed a sign of the decline of the Buddha's fate inheritance, but at present it only opens up the channel between the Shangqing and the Buddhist countries outside the region. It is not yet known whether it can truly invite the next Buddha's fate inheritance."

As if he was worried that Xia Houyou felt that he was deliberately belittling Xu Taiping, Shihu Tianjun immediately added with a serious face and explained:

"Based on what has happened in the past, where eminent Buddhist monks introduced the inheritance of Buddhism from foreign Buddhist countries, Xiangyun and the Buddhist country are just the scene of the opening of the channel between the foreign Buddhist country and the upper clear world."

"Whether there will be a Buddhist inheritance descending from this passage depends on whether there is a golden wheel phantom appearing in the next passage made up of auspicious clouds and Buddha's light."

"Because this golden wheel is exactly what is used to spread the Dharma from Buddhist countries outside the region."

"Only when the golden wheel appears and penetrates into the Buddha statue in Xu Taiping's hand can this Buddhist inheritance be considered successful."

When she first heard this, Xia Houyou was a little skeptical, but immediately she heard Xu Taiping's roaring voice again from the shadow of the spiritual mirror above her head——

"Zhenwu Qingxuan Xu Taiping seeks the power of Buddha fate from all the Buddhas in foreign Buddhist countries for this supreme being!"

When Xiahou Qingyuan saw this, he immediately frowned and murmured:

"Xu Taiping is still seeking the power of Buddha's fate from Buddhist countries outside the region. It seems that it is exactly what the third uncle said. This scene is just a sign that the power of Buddha's fate is about to decline."

Xia Houyou bit his lip and said:

"Since we have persisted to this point, Xu Taiping will definitely not give up."

When Shihu Tianjun heard this, he immediately sighed softly and said:

"Whether he wants to give up or not, the next step is not up to him."

Immediately, he explained to Xiahou You who was looking at him with a puzzled look: "If the rumors are correct, after the passage between Shangqing and the Buddhist kingdom outside the domain is opened, there will be a constant stream of chaotic auras from outside the domain descending."

"After these auras descend, they will merge with the five elements of the Shangqing Realm, and constantly turn into boulders, wind and fire to attack Xu Taiping."

"If you are not fully prepared, no one dares to take it head-on."

Hearing this, Xiahou You's heart tightened again.

Almost at the same time that Shihu Tianjun's voice fell, a very fierce gale suddenly "boomed" and emerged from the center of the auspicious cloud passage above Lingjiu Peak, and slashed towards Xu Taiping on the top of the peak like a long sword.

"Swish!"

Facing this attack from the sky, Xu Taiping raised the Buddha statue in his hand with one hand, and then slashed at the blade-like gale with a knife without hesitation.
