Unexpectedly, there was a jade strip containing the Dragon's Gate's refining techniques. This was truly a pleasant surprise.
Among the jade strips, Xiao Chen was more interested in the Dragon's Gate Totem and the Heaven Dragon City. He had heard of the Dragon's Gate Battle Armor, soldiers, and war flags before, so he was not unfamiliar with them.
As for the Dragon's Gate Totem and the Heaven Dragon City, this was his first time hearing about them.
After thinking for a while, he handed the jade strip to Mo Chen. He knew a little about refining. He knew a little about refining, but compared to Mo Chen, who had the Book of Heavenly Works, he was definitely much weaker. It was more appropriate to hand it to her.
As the saying went, one should make the best use of one's talents. There was no need to keep everything to oneself.
After receiving Xiao Chen's jade strip, Mo Chen checked it and felt incredibly excited. This was probably the treasure that she was the most excited about in the Dragon's Gate Treasure Trove.
Xiao Chen opened the second brocade box and saw a mysterious black medallion. He could not tell what material it was made of.
A Buddha statue was carved on the front of the medallion. This Buddha statue looked extremely strange, different from the various Buddha statues that Xiao Chen had seen before. This Buddha statue had eight hands covering its eyes, nose, ears, mouth, navel, heart, and other parts. It looked extremely strange.
"Mo Chen, what is this?" Xiao Chen asked Mo Chen, who was at the side.
Not long ago, Mo Chen had read through the ancient Buddhist texts. She should have some knowledge of this.
"This is a Buddhist medallion, an ancient Buddhist sect ornament. It is similar to the Buddhist sect's heavenly beads and bracelets. However, this Buddhist medallion is even more ancient. There are many ways to make Buddhist ornaments. " Mo Chen said, "In orthodox Buddhism, unless one is an esteemed monk or the head of a temple, one is not allowed to wear ornaments. There are strict rules and restrictions.
"Only Buddhist medallions are ornaments that do not have many restrictions. With the blessing of an esteemed monk, they can be given to junior-generation disciples or people who believe in Buddhism. They can be used to seek good fortune and ward off calamity.
"This Buddhist medallion has the image of a masked Buddha. It is a great Buddha that is best at seeking good fortune and warding off calamity. Furthermore, this is an Eight Hands Masked Buddha. It is of extremely high standards. Normally, it is two-handed. Not only can it protect the wearer's body from harm, but it can also protect the mind from temptation. "
Sure enough, for it to be placed in a brocade box by itself, this amulet must be quite useful. It should be the spoils of war from destroying the Small Thunder Temple.
The items in the first two boxes did not disappoint Xiao Chen. As for the third box, Xiao Chen could not help but look forward to it even more.
He opened the mirror box and found a yellowed ancient book inside. It was extremely old. Xiao Chen flipped it open and skimmed through it. The content recorded inside shocked him.
It was actually a detailed method of how Buddhism absorbed the power of faith and how to cast a Buddha statue. There were many rituals of the ancient Buddhist sects that allowed the Buddha statue to receive the prayers of the believers and how to repay the prayers.
This ancient book should have come from the Minor Leiyin Temple, the Immortal Holy Land from ten thousand years ago.
The content was very detailed, and there was everything that one could think of. The only thing missing was how to convert the power of faith into cultivation.
However, that did not matter. Xiao Chen did not need to use this to cultivate. In his opinion, such a shortcut was not something that one could cultivate on their own. No matter how high one's cultivation was, it was just a paper tiger.
What made Xiao Chen happy was that with this mysterious veil of the Buddhist sects, it was no longer mysterious to him. It would be easy to find the other party's weakness.
"What is it? Why are you so happy reading it?" Mo Chen asked, finding it strange when she saw Xiao Chen's expression.
Xiao Chen smiled and handed it over. "Take a look at this."
Mo Chen received it and took a few glances. Then, she exclaimed in pleasant surprise, "This is great! I found a lot of information in the ancient books, but there were only some vague fragments. Now, we do not have to worry about the secret of Black Flame Island. "
"Right. After we go out, we will destroy this fake Buddhist sect. It swindles people and acts like bandits. Furthermore, it pretends to be benevolent. It is too much of a threat to Heavenly Star Island. "
Mo Chen looked at the divine blood formation and asked, "However, what do you intend to do with this King Spirit Vein? Unless we invite a peak expert like the Thunder King or a Haotian Prime, it will be too difficult to take away the King Spirit Vein silently."
Xiao Chen frowned and thought hard. For now, he did not know what to do.
Xiao Chen did not want to refine this entire King Spirit Vein. With his current cultivation, he was far from being able to consume a King Spirit Vein. If he did so, he would only explode.
At the very least, he would have to reach the level of Emperor Wu before he could consume a King Spirit Vein.
Xiao Chen wanted to use the King Spirit Vein's pure Spiritual Energy and vast quantity to break through his Small Perfection Blue Robed Emperor level. After that, he could use Holy Spirit Veins to continue cultivating as long as they were of high quality.
However, right now, the King Spirit Vein was completely sealed. Once Xiao Chen broke the formation, the mysterious phenomenon of the King Spirit Vein appearing would be a huge problem.
If he went back and forth to find the Thunder King and the Haotian Prime, he would spend a lot of time. The gains would not make up for the losses.
There was no way to touch this Spirit Vein. He could see it but not obtain it.
Hehe! You are really an idiot. Don't you see that there is a prayer mat in this secret room? This secret room is filled with treasures. Don't you find it strange that a prayer mat suddenly appeared?
Just as Xiao Chen was preparing to go out and brainstorm for a solution, Ao Jiao's voice suddenly came from the Immortal Spirit Ring. She mentioned something that Xiao Chen and Mo Chen had overlooked. That's right. Why is there a prayer mat out of nowhere? Xiao Chen's eyes lit up.
Why is there a prayer mat out of nowhere? Xiao Chen's eyes lit up.
Then, Xiao Chen remembered that there was a secret realm in the Heavenly Saber Pavilion in the lower realm. The prayer mats there were connected to a Spirit Vein.
Thank you, Little Ao Jiao.
Xiao Chen could not help laughing in his heart. It turned out that the problem that plagued him was so simple. At the crucial moment, Ao Jiao performed a great service.
When Xiao Chen arrived before the prayer mat, he said to Mo Chen, "There is no need to rush to leave. This prayer mat might be connected to a King Spirit Vein. I should be able to use it to break through the bottleneck of the Small Perfection Blue Robed Emperor."
Mo Chen felt somewhat surprised. She asked, "Your bottleneck requires a King Spirit Vein to break through?"
"Yes. The purity of a Holy Spirit Vein is not high enough. The chances of using it to break through the bottleneck and form the Heavenly Seal are too low." Xiao Chen sat cross-legged on the prayer mat. After he answered, he closed his eyes.
Xiao Chen calmed himself and slowly circulated the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation. The instant he circulated his Cultivation Technique, the sound of a torrential flood rang out in Xiao Chen's ears.
That was an auditory hallucination caused by the vast amount of Spiritual Energy. As the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation drew in the Spiritual Energy, it looked like roaring dragons pouring into Xiao Chen's meridians, looking extremely horrifying.
If Xiao Chen was not careful, his meridians might burst.
The golden divine blood formation started to give off a faint light. The nine-colored clump of light flickered endlessly. However, not a single strand of Spiritual Energy leaked out.
Mo Chen, who was standing at the side, heaved a sigh of relief as she held the secret manual in the third brocade box.
However, there was still some worry on her face. A King Spirit Vein could only be used by Xiao Chen to break through the bottleneck of the Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperor. How difficult would it be for Xiao Chen to advance to Martial Emperor? There were still four more years. That was simply too short.
Mo Chen sighed in her heart. Then, she glanced at Xiao Chen and quietly moved to the side to read quietly.
While Xiao Chen was breaking through the bottleneck, he did not know that Heavenly Star Island had already reached its most dangerous moment.
Originally, the Dragon's Gate's Heaven Locking Formation could last for three days. However, after Zhuang Zhenghe rushed over and smashed down with the Amitabha Buddha's palm strike, the situation instantly reversed.
The defenses of the seven outpost islets were completely destroyed. The Heavenly Star Island cultivators had no choice but to shrink the defensive perimeter of the formation to its limits and retreat to Heavenly Star City to put up a final resistance.
Layers of Buddhist lights spread across the vast Heavenly Star Island's sky, covering the entire five hundred kilometers of the sea region around Heavenly Star Island. The sound of chanting rang out in every temple, lingering and inspiring the hearts of the people.
To the many cultivators defending Heavenly Star City, the tranquil and peaceful chanting of scriptures sounded like demonic music, filling them with despair.
Originally, after the Dragon's Gate's Heaven Locking Formation activated, the Heavenly Star Island cultivators were evenly matched.
A partially restored Dragon's Gate's Heaven Locking Formation was not something that the eight factions could break.
Furthermore, there was still Lan Shaobai's group, leading eight King Grade warships. When they charged out, they held back the many people of the eight factions.
The eight factions could not focus on breaking the formation. The defensive formations of the seven outpost islets linked together. Seven ancient azure-colored dragon images guarded one area, forming an impregnable defensive perimeter.
This rendered the eight factions helpless. They could only rage out of humiliation as they watched Lan Shaobai's group enter and leave, destroying their Sage Grade warships one by one.
However, at this crucial moment, a resonant Buddhist voice rang out. Before Heavenly Star Island's side could understand what was going on, a golden Buddha hand descended from the sky, flickering with a dazzling light.
A golden Buddha's hand, flickering with a dazzling light, fell from the sky and smashed heavily on the defensive barrier.
The Amitabha Buddha image appeared in the ten thousand layers of Buddha rings. With one palm strike, it shattered the defensive barrier, ripping it with cracks.
A significant amount of horrifying energy leaked in through the cracks. Then, it swept through the surroundings like a strong wind, easily destroying the buildings on the outpost islets like they were nothing more than piles of rubble.
It could be said that the wind passed without leaving a trace. The place was in a sorry state, looking like rubble.
Although the defensive barrier quickly mended, Lan Shaobai's expression changed drastically. In the end, he decisively chose to retreat, shrinking the defensive perimeter and retreating to Heavenly Star City.
On the other side, the eight factions, who were originally in a predicament, immediately gained momentum. They gave chase and attacked ferociously, working together with the huge Buddha image hovering in the air.
As the pursuit continued, a significant amount of energy penetrated the defensive barrier and killed several people of Heavenly Star Island's group.
After the barrier shrank by a hundred times, its defenses became significantly stronger. The group that retreated to Heavenly Star Island finally stabilized the situation.
However, good times did not last. Resonant chanting rang out on the nearby islands of Heavenly Star Island. Bathed in a Buddhist light, the Amitabha Buddha image's strength increased explosively. Every now and then, it would throw a palm strike.
The huge palm covered the sky. When it descended, it blocked the boundless sunlight in the sky, shrouding the entire Heavenly Star City in darkness, making everyone anxious.
As the seven Blue Dragon images circling Heavenly Star City clashed with each other, their bodies grew increasingly illusory. Clearly, they were on the verge of collapsing.
The wind howled on the city walls. When Lan Shaobai saw the seven Blue Dragon images descend once more, he frowned heavily.
There were only seven Blue Dragon Locking the Sky. It was still too weak. If he could completely repair the formation, with the momentum of one thousand dragons soaring, even Emperor Wu would have to retreat. Then, he would be able to advance or retreat as he pleased. He would not have to wait for death like now.
