(I was in a very bad state yesterday. I even wrote the wrong names of two chapters. You can imagine my mental state at that time. But I still tried hard to write. I didn't expect the second chapter to get so many good comments. That chapter is very important to me, so I'm very happy. Thank you for your likes. I'm in a better state today. This is the first chapter.
…
…
The people in the White Tower Temple would not let Ning Que and Sangsang leave. The crowd that had been frightened by his bloody means and gradually dispersed gradually gained courage and strength with the arrival of the Chief Preaching Monk. The Chief Preaching Monk himself was the biggest obstacle for Ning Que and Sangsang to leave.
Eldest Brother helped Ning Que up and took out several iron arrows from somewhere. He handed them to Ning Que and said, "These are the iron arrows you lost in the Wa Mountain. Sixth Brother repaired them. If you can escape, deal with the talisman lines. These iron cylinders were also made by Sixth Brother. He asked me to bring them to you."
Ning Que took the heavy iron arrows and put them into the arrow box. He tightened one of the small iron cylinders on the arrowhead of an iron arrow and said, "Sangsang and I will leave by ourselves. Senior Brother, you don't have to see us off."
Eldest Brother looked at the dense crowd in the Lakeside Temple and the Chief Preaching Monk not far away. He said, "If you can leave by yourself, why did you wait for me?"
Ning Que looked at the tiredness between Eldest Brother's eyebrows and felt very uneasy. In his opinion, even if Eldest Brother had broken through the Five States and entered the Limitless State, he still had no chance of winning against the Chief Preaching Monk who had entered the Vajra Body.
Eldest Brother knew what he was worried about. He looked at him and said gently, "Indeed, not many people can defeat the Chief Preaching Monk. But at least I can stop him."
Then he continued, "The only weakness of the Master's Dharma is that he is too slow. And according to the promise, he can't attack. So I'm confident that I can send you away."
They did not deliberately lower their voices when they talked, because no matter how low their voices were, they could not hide from the Chief Preaching Monk's hearing.
The Chief Monk of Scripture sat cross-legged on the ground, holding the middle part of the staff in his right hand. He looked calm and natural, as if he didn't hear what they were saying, or if he heard it, he didn't care.
Ning Que looked at the expression of the powerhouse from the Buddhism Sect and the uneasiness in his heart grew. He had a feeling that if Eldest Brother attacked, they would be in deep trouble. He reached out to grab Eldest Brother's sleeve.
However, when his fingertips should have touched Eldest Senior Brother's cotton sleeve, he found that he only grabbed a gust of wind.
A light breeze blew, and the cotton robe on Eldest Brother's body fluttered. Then, his body suddenly turned illusory and disappeared into thin air. No one knew where he went, but only a word was left echoing in Eldest Brother's ears.
"Let's go."
Ning Que knew that this was not the time to say goodbye. Since Eldest Brother had already taken action, he had to take advantage of this opportunity to escape. Otherwise, he would miss Eldest Brother's arrangement.
Even if Eldest Brother could hold off the Chief Monk of Scripture for a while, the crowd in the White Tower Temple, especially Master Qi Mei, the powerhouses from the Buddhism Sect, and the powerhouses from the West-Hill Divine Palace from Haotian Taoism, could make him and Sangsang stay. Therefore, he carried Sangsang on his back and ran without hesitation to the quiet lake under the White Tower.
However, the next moment, his feet suddenly sank and fell heavily on the ground. He could not lift his feet again.
…
…
The escape that had just started came to an abrupt end.
It was not because the powerhouses from the Buddhism Sect and Taoism Sect blocked his way, nor was it because the crowd madly pounced on them again. It was because he sensed the strange fluctuation of Heaven and Earth around him and saw the horrified expressions on some people's faces. He guessed that something very shocking had happened behind him.
Ning Que suddenly turned around and looked at the Chief Monk of Scripture who was sitting cross-legged.
Eldest Brother suddenly disappeared and entered the Limitless State. His target was naturally the Chief Monk of Scripture.
The Limitless State was one of the most magical cultivation methods in the world. It was an amazing Divine Sense above the Five States. It was like riding the wind or riding the clouds. It could cross mountains and pass through countries in a flash.
There was no body movement in the world that could be faster than the Limitless State, not even the Sage of Sword Liu Bai's Thousands of Miles Sword.
According to Ning Que's calculation, when Eldest Brother disappeared and reappeared in front of the crowd, he must be in front of the Chief Monk of Scripture. He might even have gone thousands of miles away to take some powerful weapon and then returned to the White Tower Temple to attack the Chief Monk of Scripture.
At this moment, Eldest Brother had reappeared in front of the crowd.
But he was not in front of the Chief Monk of Scripture.
He was still far away from the Chief Monk of Scripture. It was as if he was forced to show his figure the moment he took a step forward!
Looking at the Chief Monk of Scripture who was sitting cross-legged more than a hundred feet away, Eldest Brother's cotton-padded robe trembled slightly. The dust slowly floated up. His expression was unusually solemn and his body was unusually heavy, as if he could not take another step forward.
If one looked carefully, one could even see that the straw sandals on his feet did not step firmly on the ground. They were about half an inch away from the soil, but he could not move an inch!
At this moment, the sound of scripture chanting slowly rang out.
The Chief Monk of Scripture sat cross-legged with his hand holding a monk's staff. He looked solemn and his voice was like the sound of Buddha.
"As I have heard, the three realms are all impermanent. There is nothing and there is joy. There is Tao and nature. Everything is empty. There is no wind and there is no dew. There is no fog and there is no lightning. Observe in silence, from the body."
This Buddhist scripture came from the Great Mercy Scroll.
This Buddhist scripture was talking about Eldest Brother.
As the sound of Buddha rang out, the surrounding environment suddenly changed strangely. The lake no longer rippled, the willows on the shore drooped down powerlessly, and even the ever-changing light on the White Tower seemed to freeze. There was no wind at all.
There was silence in the White Tower Temple. Everyone in the lake, the tower, and the temple were at peace. Everything in the world returned to the original state thousands of years ago with the sound of Buddha. It was so peaceful that it made people's hearts palpitate.
In this absolutely peaceful world, how could one walk with the wind without wind? How could one fly by stepping on dew without dew? How could one pass through fog without fog? How could one move like lightning without lightning?
Eldest Brother's body was forced to hover in this peaceful world. His feet did not touch the ground, and he slowly landed. His cotton clothes gradually stopped trembling, and his face became paler and paler.
It was said that speed was the only unbreakable law in the world. However, the fastest Distanceless State was broken today!
…
…
Ning Que only had time to turn around and take a step back. He noticed something strange, so he stopped and turned around. He heard the chanting and saw that Eldest Brother was in danger.
He was so shocked that he did not have time to think about how Eldest Brother's Distanceless State could be broken. He pulled the iron bow like lightning and shot an arrow at the Chief Monk of Scripture's face!
Before Eldest Brother appeared, he had already shot at the Chief Monk of Scripture with the Primordial Thirteen Arrows. Facing the Chief Monk of Scripture who was both physically and mentally invincible, the powerful iron arrow turned into a withered branch and did not have any effect. However, he still shot a second iron arrow because there was a small iron tube on the arrowhead.
He did not believe that there was an immortal in the world. Even if the Chief Monk of Scripture was invincible and could ignore any physical damage, he believed that the explosion of the small iron tube could at least disturb the powerhouse of the Buddhism Sect, even if it could not burn him to death. Thus, Eldest Brother could get out of his current strange predicament.
However, the next moment, he saw a very strange scene.
The iron arrow left the bowstring, and a white turbulence bloomed from the arrowhead's tail. It scattered like dandelions blown by the wind, and then slowly floated down. Ning Que was very familiar with the shooting process of the Primordial Thirteen Arrows. He knew that the white turbulence was the result of the iron arrow's talisman intent and the natural wind. However, it was the first time he saw such a situation!
The iron arrow, which was supposed to ignore the distance and fly away silently, did not disappear after leaving the bowstring. Instead, it maintained its original body and slowly flew for several feet before falling to the ground from the air!
The iron arrow couldn't get close to the Chief Preaching Monk at all. The iron cylinder on the arrowhead hit the ground with a dull sound. There wasn't even a flame, not to mention the powerful explosion that they had imagined!
Ning Que's face suddenly turned pale. His cheeks seemed to have become thinner, and his body trembled violently. Then, he stretched out his right index finger and drew a line in the air at the Chief Monk of Scripture in the distance. It was as strong as an iron hook!
This was the only Indefinite Divine Talisman he knew — the Two-Horizontal Talisman!
Ning Que had been holding back his Psyche Power when they were on the verge of death with Sangsang. He was worried that he would consume too much Psyche Power, so he did not use it. However, he would not hesitate when he saw Eldest Brother in danger!
However, he found something very strange again.
No matter how violently his Psyche Power gushed out, no matter how steadily and forcefully his fingertips drew in the air, he could not make the talisman lines in the air produce any talisman meaning. Moreover, he faintly had a more frightening speculation. Even if he could draw the Divine Talisman, he could not mobilize the Qi of Heaven and Earth!
As the scripture slowly came out from the Chief Monk of Scripture, the Qi of Heaven and Earth in the White Tower Temple was so quiet that it could not be mobilized, just like the natural things such as lakes, pagodas, people, wind, rain, and snow!
As the scripture entered his ears, Ning Que's sense of perception gradually became quiet. He did not want to mobilize any Psyche Power at all. His body gradually relaxed, and he only wanted to sit down and listen to the scripture. Even the Great Spirit in his body became much calmer, and the crystal liquid that kept spinning in his abdomen began to slow down!
Ning Que looked at the Chief Monk of Scripture who was sitting cross-legged and was shocked speechless. He wondered what kind of method it was that could affect his inner body and make him seem so powerful!
Eldest Brother looked at the Chief Monk of Scripture and said in shock, "Words are the law!"
…
…
"As I have heard, the three realms are all impermanent. There is nothing and there is joy. There is Tao and nature. Everything is empty. There is no wind or dew. There is no fog or lightning. Observe in silence, and it rises from the body."
The scripture of the Chief Monk of Scripture echoed in the White Tower Temple. It was as distant as the bell, as quiet as the wooden fish, as subtle as the incense burning, and as deep as the Buddha's voice.
Everything was empty. There was no wind, dew, fog, lightning, rain, snow, and dew. In the early years of the human world, there was no aura of Heaven and Earth. Then how could one mobilize and control the aura of Heaven and Earth?
The Chief Monk of Scripture was the supreme figure in the Xuankong Temple. His disciples had a higher status than bigwigs such as the chief monk of the Commandment Hall. The reason was that the Xuankong Temple was a place for Buddha to preach.
The Chief Monk of Scripture was above the Five States. He had his own Buddha Realm, so he was the Buddha in the human world. The scripture he preached in the human world was the Buddhist scripture, and the words he said were the words of Buddha.
The words of Buddha were the rules of his world.
