Pointing to the side, the old monk said, "The Sutra Chamber over there contains the manuals of Fahua and Daming Monasteries. Take a look and you might be able to gain something."
Su Zimo nodded.
Fahua and Daming Monasteries were top-tier factions that were on par with the current nine immortal sects, seven fiend sects and other super sects – it was clear how deep their foundations were.
However, it was a pity that the calamity ten thousand years ago had left the two super sects with this shabby and dilapidated ancient temple, isolated from the rest of the world.
The entire cultivation world probably did not know that such an old temple existed at the bottom of the Dragon Burial Valley.
Although the old monk spoke casually, Su Zimo knew that many of those ancient sutras were secrets of Fahua and Daming Monasteries!
For example, the Mystic Dharmic Lotus Sutra was thought to be lost by the outside world.
Who would have thought that the sutra that was known as the number one secret skill of the core formation would be at the bottom of the Dragon Burial Valley?
It was in the hands of a young novice monk who could read it at any time?
It was not hard to imagine that the impact of the Mystic Dharmic Lotus Sutra's appearance would be much more terrifying than the appearance of the Vermilion Fruit!
At that time, there would definitely be a bloodbath.
The paragons of the North Region would not be the only ones involved.
All the paragons of Tianhuang Mainland would be tempted and go crazy for it!
However, there was more than one sutra like the Mystic Dharmic Lotus Sutra – there were many more in the Sutra Chamber!
That seemingly simple and shabby library was, in fact, a huge treasure trove!
It was equivalent to the legacies of two super sects being placed before Su Zimo!
The only pity was that his cultivation was crippled and he could not gather qi.
If he could gather qi, he would not only possess the legacies of the immortal and fiend sects, he would also possess the legacy of the Buddhist monasteries!
Just as Su Zimo was pondering, the old monk seemed to have thought of something and his expression turned emotional.
The old monk sighed. "After the catastrophe back then, Fahua and Daming Monasteries no longer existed and were buried by time. My old friends have either left or dispersed. Now … I'm the only one left. "
There was a heart-wrenching loneliness in the old monk's tone.
Su Zimo could not help but ask, "Senior, are you and Fellow Daoist Ming Zhen the only ones in this old temple?"
The old monk was silent for a moment before nodding. "Just the two of us."
"Clang!"
Just as he finished speaking, the sound of chains suddenly rang out from the backyard of the main hall. It was heavy and powerful, as if something was constantly struggling!
Su Zimo's heart trembled.
Startled, the little fox followed Su Zimo's arm and burrowed into his chest to hide.
The old monk's expression did not change. His eyes were like an ancient well, without the slightest fluctuation. It was as if he had turned a deaf ear to the sound of chains in the backyard.
Seeing how calm the old monk was, Su Zimo gradually relaxed.
However, he was really curious about what the sound of chains in the backyard of the main hall was.
Why would Ming Zhen be so fearful and avoid it?
The old monk interrupted Su Zimo's thoughts and suddenly asked, "I can sense a hint of Buddhist aura around you. That's not produced by the Saraca Flower. Have you cultivated Buddhist techniques before?"
"Buddhist techniques? Could it be … "
Su Zimo froze for a moment before a look of realization flashed through his eyes.
He gathered qi slowly and made use of the moment spirit qi surged into his body to open his storage bag and retrieve a Buddha Bead the size of a longan.
The Buddha Bead was extremely ancient. Although it was made of wood, it did not show any signs of decay and the patterns carved on it were clearly visible!
This Buddha Bead was something that he had picked up by accident when he was trapped in the stone coffin with Demoness Ji back then.
Su Zimo said in a deep voice, "Through this Buddha Bead, I've gained control of a powerful spirit art known as the Fiend Suppression Seal!"
If he had ever cultivated anything from the Buddhist monasteries, it would be the Fiend Suppression Seal.
The moment he took out the Buddha Bead, Su Zimo finally understood something.
Why was he able to comprehend the powerful Fiend Suppression Seal with just a single Buddha Bead?
It wasn't because of his shocking talent. It was because of the existence of the sacred item of the Buddhist monasteries, the Saraca Flower, that he possessed the pure root of wisdom of Buddhism!
"Hais."
The moment he caught sight of the Buddha Bead, the old monk sighed gently with a rare ripple in his emotions.
It was clear that the old monk recognized the origin of the Buddha Bead.
The old monk said, "Actually … the Fiend Suppression Seal is not a spirit art. It's a Dharmic art of Daming Monastery!"
Dharmic art!
Su Zimo knew that one could only channel Dharmic powers and release Dharmic arts after advancing to Nascent Soul realm and cultivating an Essence Spirit.
Since the Fiend Suppression Seal was a Dharmic art, how could he channel spirit energy and release it in the form of a spirit art?
"It's no wonder why the Saraca Flower is a sacred item of the Buddhist monasteries,"
The old monk's words enlightened Su Zimo.
The Saraca Flower was probably the only one that possessed such miraculous powers!
Su Zimo recalled everything that happened back then and said, "This Buddha Bead was discovered in a stone coffin. In that stone coffin, there was a skeleton that came back to life. It was extremely terrifying and I was only able to escape by luck. "
After thinking for a moment, Su Zimo continued, "That skeleton seemed to be from the fiend sects."
"There's no mistake,"
The old monk said, "The owner of this Buddha Bead is Monk Daming, the titular disciple of Daming Monastery. Back then, he was a peerless expert whose reputation shook the world!"
"Titular disciple?"
This was the second time Su Zimo had heard of that title.
The first titular disciple was Shura Yan Beichen.
The second was the current Monk Daming.
The old monk explained, "In the various super sects of Tianhuang Mainland, there will only be one titular disciple! Every single titular disciple is the paragon of the sect with the greatest potential, the most dazzling battle results and the most terrifying combat strength! "
"The cultivation realms of titular disciples are not fixed. However, they have countless trump cards and the most basic ability is to kill above their level. Generally speaking, one is only qualified to become a titular disciple after advancing to the Void Reversion realm. "
At that point, Su Zimo understood.
In other words, titular disciples were the strongest among the paragons of the various super sects!
The old monk continued, "The so-called titular disciples are the Dao titles that are unique to the sect bestowed by the Patriarch. For example, the titular disciples of Fahua Monastery are bestowed with the Dao title of Fahua. The titular disciples of Daming Monastery are bestowed with the Dao title of Daming and are extremely easy to identify. "
"The titular disciples are a little far away from you. You just have to remember that if you encounter titular disciples of super sects in the future, you have to be careful and not get into conflict easily."
Su Zimo nodded.
The old monk thought for a moment and said, "Back then, a fiend appeared in Shura Sect and created the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra. Killing became his second nature and wherever he passed, the blood of all living beings would be devoured cleanly."
At that point, Su Zimo realized that there was a high chance that the skeleton was the fiend of Shura Sect back then!
The old monk continued, "Monk Daming could not bear to see the suffering of the masses and left the sect to kill that fiend. Both sides fought three rounds. Although the fiend of Shura Sect was disadvantaged, it was difficult to determine the victor. "
"In the fourth battle, Just Now, the victor was decided. It was said that the battle was earth-shattering and the sun and moon changed colors. Even the ground cracked and both sides gave it their all! "
