(Chapter 3: PS: Updated late again. Sorry, a brother's grandmother has cancer and can't hold on much longer. He was in a bad mood, so he went out to drink and cried. He said that his grandmother loved him the most and hated himself for not visiting his grandmother more often. At this time, it's too late to regret. There are too many involuntary joys and sorrows. I hope everyone can cherish the people around them!)
Chapter 899
Buddha's Lotus Stone
Jiang Yan was an orphan. She had the same life experience as Xuanyuan. However, at least Xuanyuan had an old beggar who gave him warmth, but Jiang Yan never had.
Since she was a child, she had wandered on the streets, begging and picking up leftovers to fill her stomach. She suffered in the wind and rain, suffering all kinds of pain. However, one day when she was begging, she was lucky enough to be noticed by an elder of the "Shi" who walked in the world and brought back to the "Shi". From then on, her fate was changed and her view of the whole world changed. Here, she came into contact with everything that ordinary people could never come into contact with.
As Jiang Yan entered the "Shi", the "Shi" discovered that Jiang Yan's talent was amazing. They kept digging out her potential and regarded her as one of the talents that could be cultivated. Of course, the "Shi" also cultivated countless children, and Jiang Yan was just one of them.
There were many people who were chosen. Jiang Yan originally had friends in that place. However, as time passed, most of them died while the "Shi" was digging out their potential. Some of them were killed by the impact of fighting qi when they interacted with heaven and earth, some were killed by the impact of thunder, fire, and the law of the Great Way, turning them into ashes, or killed each other. Looking at the cruel reality, Jiang Yan persisted all the way and chose to cultivate fighting qi and Shi at the same time. She consolidated her body and cultivated Shi at the same time. The two complemented each other. Ordinary people said that once they cultivated Shi, their fighting qi would stagnate. However, she was extremely talented, and ordinary people couldn't compare to her. She was able to merge the two perfectly, which amazed the older generation of the "Shi".
After a long and arduous journey of growth, she had finally reached this stage.
During this period, the "Shi" sent her to the "Southern Sky River" to be tempered. They didn't care about her life at all and sealed the magical power of the "Shi" in her sea of consciousness. Once she made a breakthrough, part of the magical power would be released from her sea of consciousness. She was only ten years old to seek survival in such a place. She was not allowed to have sex. She had to maintain a pure body in order to be qualified to become the "Shi" Saintess.
In the "Southern Sky River," there were all kinds of deceit, all kinds of sinister schemes, all kinds of jealousies, and all kinds of dirty tricks. Jiang Yan suffered a lot. Although she sold her skills and not her body, Jiang Yan was extremely beautiful and couldn't be molested. Countless cultivators wanted to take her away again and again. This was because the "Southern Sky River" had such a rule. They sold their skills and not their bodies. However, if they could take a girl away, it would be considered a customer's ability, and they wouldn't reject it.
If Jiang Yan hadn't overcome all kinds of temptations with her own willpower and strength, she would have been raped long ago. If that happened, there would only be one result. She would lose everything. She wouldn't have the reputation of being the number one talented woman in the Southern Sky Dynasty, and she wouldn't have become one of the top geniuses of the "Shi" Sect. It had to be said that the "Shi" Sect's method of tempering their geniuses was very unique.
It could be said that she could stand here today with her own strength. She wasn't inferior to Xuanyuan at all. In Xuanyuan's eyes, Jiang Yan was better than the so-called saintesses of many big forces.
Jiang Yan's palm was fair and slender. Her fingers were exquisite and flawless. On her palm, a strange stone appeared. It was the size of a ten-year-old child. It was a naturally formed Bodhisattva. Its face, eyes, and expression were somewhat similar to Jiang Yan's. It was emitting a merciful, peaceful, and compassionate aura. Holding a bottle in one hand and a willow tree in the other, she sat cross-legged on a lotus, as if she had seen the suffering of all living beings and wanted to save all living beings.
This strange stone was called the "Bodhisattva Lotus Stone". Jiang Yan looked at it and sighed.
"This Wondrous Stone was obtained by chance in the desert of the Western Province. Today, I can only give it my all. Whether I can win or not will be decided by the heavens."
In Jiang Yan's other hand, there was a force blade that was formed from the gathering of the heavenly terrain patterns. Many of the people who were extremely skilled in power techniques were extremely shocked. To be able to transform the heavenly terrain patterns into a force blade, one needed to have a great affinity with the power of heaven and earth to be able to do it. It should be known that all the fighting auras in heaven and earth would repel each other, let alone the great path patterns. Every kind of path was different, and their power was also different. There were great paths and small paths. Otherwise, how could they use power techniques to attack each other? However, this woman named Jiang Yan had actually condensed a force blade with a simple movement. This caused many of the people who had studied power techniques to be unable to remain calm.
Just like them, they could only command the Great Path Patterns that belonged to their own Dao. However, it seemed that all the Great Path Patterns on Jiang Yan's body were compatible with her. Moreover, they could generate new Great Path Patterns under her will. This was an extremely terrifying technique. Perhaps when she was gambling on stones, she was not a special Life Immortal. However, once she used Force Techniques to attack the enemy, it would be extremely terrifying.
As the saying went, human strength was limited, but the Great Path Patterns were endless. If one could use the Great Path Patterns of Heaven and Earth for one's own use, then how terrifying would that be? When one cultivated to a higher realm, one could even reverse the opponent's Great Path Patterns. It was like controlling the enemy's weapon to kill oneself. It was extremely terrifying.
This included the two elders of the Demon Clan and the Demon Clan. Even though their current Force Techniques were higher than Jiang Yan's, their attainments in certain aspects were still far inferior to Jiang Yan's. They understood that as long as Jiang Yan was given enough time to grow, her achievements in the future would definitely far surpass theirs. Her affinity with the Great Path of Heaven and Earth was too terrifying. This was something that they could not compare to even when they cultivated to a higher realm.
"It's actually a Force Blade. According to legend, only the Force Emperor of the ancient times could use the Great Path Patterns of Heaven and Earth as a weapon for one's own use. This woman's attainments in Force Techniques obviously cannot reach that realm."
"This is a kind of affinity with the Great Path of Heaven and Earth. It has nothing to do with one's realm. This woman has great potential in Force Techniques. This kind of great creation is simply impossible for ordinary people to obtain. If there is a supreme Force Technique that allows her to cultivate diligently, her future will definitely be boundless. Whoever can win this woman's favor will be the luckiest person in his life!"
Even Xuanyuan was extremely shocked.
"I didn't expect Jiang Yan's Force Techniques to have reached such a level. I'm afraid this is a technique from the Great Power Ancient Technique?"
"It's very likely. The Devouring Emperor only obtained one page of the Great Power Ancient Technique that day, and it was extremely beneficial. Judging from Jiang Yan's technique, it should be from the Great Power Ancient Technique," the Greedy Old Man said slowly after thinking for a moment.
Xuanyuan was excited when he heard that.
He said, "Then where is the page of the Great Power Ancient Technique that the Devouring Emperor obtained?"
"It's in the Devouring Immortal's Mansion. That's why the Devouring Emperor coveted the Devouring Immortal's Mansion so much. He has always wanted to find the nine keys. As long as you can open the Devouring Immortal's Mansion, the benefits to you will be self-evident." The Greedy Old Man's words poured a bucket of cold water on Xuanyuan's enthusiasm. It would be great if the nine keys to the Devouring Immortal's Mansion could be gathered so easily. He was afraid that it would take him a long time to open the Devouring Immortal's Mansion.
At this moment, Jiang Yan began to cut the stone. The Force Blade that was hovering in her hand transformed into 36 Force Blades with a thought. They formed a Force Blade Formation around the Bodhisattva's Lotus Stone and began to cut it.
Every cut followed an extremely mysterious path. Jiang Yan had put a lot of effort into this strange stone. She communicated with it spiritually day and night, and even nourished it with her life essence. Not only that, she had also been chanting Buddhist scriptures in the Great Compassion Mantra that she obtained from a fortuitous encounter. She integrated her thoughts into it to dispel the Evil Qi that might be hidden in the strange stone.
Today, Jiang Yan finally made up her mind to cut it open. This was a strange stone that she had always been optimistic about. If she could get the position of the first stone gambler in the Southern Dynasty, she could become the Saintess of the Force Court. She still needed this achievement. If she could get that page of the Great Power Ancient Technique, she would get more.
The 36 Small Force Blades were fast, accurate, and ruthless. There was not the slightest fanciness or pause. Countless people held their breath and watched attentively. Jiang Yan had conquered many young men present with her Force Technique and made them admire her. Such a woman was too powerful. So what if she came from the Southern Sky River? In their eyes, the Southern Sky River was no longer a stain on Jiang Yan's record, but a bright spot for her.
How outstanding was a woman like Jiang Yan to be able to survive in such a place and get to where she was today on her own?
Xuanyuan sensed the change of people's emotions and smiled. A woman like Jiang Yan was indeed worthy of respect. He said slowly,
"It's not shameful to lose to you. However, I won't admit defeat easily."
Jiang Yan looked at Xuanyuan, narrowed her eyes and smiled like a flower. Although her face couldn't be seen, at this moment, many people were fascinated by her. However, her smile was only for Xuanyuan, which made those young men jealous of Xuanyuan.
The 'Bodhisattva's Seated Lotus Stone' shattered inch by inch from the inside out and turned into dust in the air. When the 'Guanyin's Seated Lotus Stone' was left with the center of the size of a human head, a startling celestial light pierced through the Nine Heavens and broke through it. A great merciful, mighty, and solemn aura enveloped it.
An elephant trumpeted, containing the sound of the Great Dao of Buddha. It swept through the Ninth Heaven and Ten Earths. With the head-sized brilliance as the center, it began to expand gradually. Finally, when the light dissipated, a living creature appeared in front of everyone.
