Suddenly, Su Zimo recalled an ancient text he read in the Sutra Chamber a few months ago.
In the ancient books, there was a record of this magical ability. It was called Telepathy!
It was said that those who cultivated Mind Reading would be able to sense the thoughts of others without talking or touching – it was extremely mysterious.
At its peak, one could even know the thoughts of all living beings in the six realms with a single thought – it was extremely terrifying!
The old monk's cultivation was unfathomable and Su Zimo estimated that he was at least a Dharma Daojun!
Or perhaps … he was even scarier!
After pondering for a moment, Su Zimo asked, "What exactly is that utmost treasure? Just Now, you said that the utmost treasure is with me but why haven't I sensed it before? "
The old monk's gaze was wise as he said slowly, "There are three sacred trees in the Buddhist monasteries. The first is the Bodhi Tree, the second is the Ashoka Tree and the third is the Saro Tree. These three Holy Trees are not in this world. They grow in the Pure Land of Bliss. "
"Paradise?"
A look of confusion flashed through Su Zimo's eyes.
The old monk did not explain and merely smiled faintly before continuing,
"There are Ashoka Flowers on the Ashoka Tree. In the ancient era, a Ashoka Flower landed in Tianhuang Mainland and was obtained by the Founder Master of Fahua Monastery. It was revered as a sacred item of the Buddhist monasteries and was passed down to this day until that female patron took it away."
The old monk's words indirectly revealed a piece of information – this old temple was related to Fahua Monastery 10,000 years ago!
"Ashoka Flower?"
Su Zimo recalled carefully but he could not recall Die Yue giving him anything like a flower.
The old monk said, "Patron, you're someone without a spirit root."
"Yes,"
Su Zimo nodded calmly.
Indeed, he was born with an incomplete spirit root and only started cultivating after he met Die Yue.
Before Die Yue left, she even helped him plant a spirit root that was not weaker than a heaven spirit root while he was unconscious!
As though he could read Su Zimo's mind, the old monk shook his head. "Spirit roots are illusory and innate. If it exists, it exists. If it doesn't, it doesn't. There's no such thing as planting a spirit root."
Su Zimo frowned slightly.
He didn't understand what the old monk meant.
Since there was no such thing as planting a Spiritual Root, then what was up with his Spiritual Root?
If he didn't have a Spirit Root, how did he cultivate?
All of a sudden.
Some scenes flashed through Su Zimo's mind.
It seemed that his Spiritual Root was indeed different from the others!
The most obvious was the speed of cultivation!
His speed of condensing Qi had even surpassed cultivators with heavenly spirit roots!
Furthermore, the quality of his spiritual energy was extremely pure, far superior to that of cultivators with heavenly spiritual roots of the same level!
There was another strange thing.
When he first became Misty Peak's disciple, when he passed through the Spirit Testing Stone Door, he clearly felt a great resistance from the stone door!
That Spirit Testing Stone Door would only block cultivators with no Spirit Roots, pseudo Spirit Roots, and ordinary Spirit Roots.
At that time, Su Zimo felt indignant and used his powerful brute force to break through the barrier formed by the stone door and rushed over.
Then, the Spirit Testing Stone Door shattered!
Could it be …
A terrifying thought flashed through Su Zimo's mind.
The old monk nodded. "Patron, in reality, you don't have a Spirit Root right from the beginning!"
Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat.
The old monk continued, "However, that female patron took away the Saraca Flower and sealed that utmost treasure of the Buddhist monasteries in your dantian to replace the role of the Spirit Root."
Su Zimo's mouth was agape.
All of a sudden, some of his doubts in the past seemed to be explained.
It was no wonder why Die Yue had a strange expression when she said that she planted a Spirit Root for him.
Furthermore, according to what Die Yue said back then … Today, it seemed like there was more to it.
Die Yue said that she planted a Spirit Root for him that was not inferior to a Heaven Spirit Root. However, she did not say that she planted a Heaven Spirit Root for him directly.
The old monk said, "In reality, the reason why you can sense spirit energy and cultivate isn't because of your Spirit Root. It's because there's an utmost treasure of the Buddhist monasteries from the Pure Land in your dantian!"
The information behind that was way too huge and had a huge impact on Su Zimo.
His heart was in a mess as he frowned and asked, "Then why does the spirit energy I cultivate have a fire attribute?"
"That's because the Saraca Flower, also known as the Flame Flower, is shaped like flames when it blooms and is extremely sensitive to fire attribute spirit energy in the surroundings!"
Everything that did not make sense made sense instantly.
With the two utmost treasures, the divine phoenix bone and Saraca Flower, coupled with their sensitivity to fire, it was only logical that Su Zimo's cultivation speed was shocking.
After being refined by the two utmost treasures, spirit energy would naturally be much purer and richer.
Although the spirit testing door had existed for thousands of years, there was no way it could withstand the impact of the two utmost treasures!
The old monk smiled. "Patron, haven't you realized that you've already been able to understand some of the ancient sutras of the Buddhist monasteries in the past year and have gained some insights?"
Su Zimo nodded.
Back when he was studying in Ping Yang Town, he had come into contact with Buddhist sutras.
At that time, those Buddhist sutras were like heavenly books that were difficult to understand. He could not understand a single word and merely felt dazzled.
In less than an hour, he tossed those sutras aside.
The strange thing was that after so many years, Su Zimo was shocked to discover that he could understand more than half of those Buddhist sutras when he picked them up in the Sutra Chamber at the bottom of the Dragon Burial Valley!
The old monk's voice sounded, "If a person doesn't have the root of wisdom, they won't be able to comprehend the profoundness of Buddhist sutras and won't be able to cultivate Buddhism. In fact, they won't even be able to read them. However, you're different …"
Su Zimo was enlightened.
The Saraca Flower was a sacred item of the Buddhist monasteries.
It existed in Su Zimo's dantian. Not only did it replace the use of a spirit root, it even gave him a form of 'wisdom' that was close to the root of wisdom.
That was what Die Yue had left for him!
It was not a simple spirit root.
It was only at this moment that Su Zimo realized Die Yue's intentions.
Be it the Saraca Flower or the divine phoenix bone, they were utmost treasures of Tianhuang Mainland!
Before Die Yue left, she said that she had left him three items. Now that he knew of two of them, he did not know what the last item was.
Su Zimo asked, "Where is this flower now?"
"It's still in your dantian. However, you haven't cultivated to the realm of inner vision and can't see it yet," The old monk replied.
Pausing for a moment, the old monk continued, "Just Now, I've said that since ancient times, no one has been able to cultivate anew after their cultivation was crippled. That's true. I don't know how to resolve your calamity as well. "
"However, this female patron exhausted all her effort to seal the Saraca Flower in your dantian and left behind two lines of words here … I think there must be a deeper meaning to it."
Su Zimo nodded.
Actually, when he saw the two lines of words left behind by Die Yue, Su Zimo had already decided that he would cultivate in peace at the bottom of the Dragon Burial Valley from now on.
If one wanted to be a dragon or elephant, one had to be a cow or a horse or a cow for all living beings.
This was his suffering.
He had to choose to endure it!
One day, Ma Niu would transform into a dragon and elephant that would tear through the horizons and soar through the nine heavens, returning to the mortal realm and shocking all living beings!
