After Xiao Chen made his request, the expressions of Abbot Xu Ye, Xu Yun, and Xu Ming all changed slightly.
A sinister look flashed in Xu Ming's eyes. "Not to mention that this is a Buddhist sect forbidden technique, it has already spread out. The Hidden Spirit Temple does not have a complete copy. Even if they did, they would not give it to someone who cultivates a Demonic Dao Cultivation Technique and is plagued with sin. "
So, that is the case. This old monk sensed the Demonic Dao Cultivation Technique in Xiao Chen, which was why he was so hostile.
Xu Yun said slowly and softly, "Benefactor Xiao, please change your request. This request is too difficult."
The Hidden Spirit Temple's abbot, Xu Ye, looked at Xiao Chen. Although he did not say anything, his eyes conveyed the same meaning.
"In that case, there is no need to negotiate. I do not care about other requests."
Xiao Chen took out the scarlet bodhi seed and handed it back. Then, he prepared to take his leave.
Abbot Xu Ye received the scarlet bodhi seed from Xiao Chen. Then, he remained silent. Xu Yun sighed softly at the side.
As for Xu Ming, he snorted coldly and said, "We are not asking him for help. There is no need to think so highly of him."
Xiao Chen, who had already turned around, smiled coldly in his heart. In that case, why did they ask me to come?
Xu Ming needed to clarify this. To Xiao Chen, he was not obligated to help the Hidden Spirit Temple stop the Azure Lotus Church's people.
Giving him the scarlet bodhi seed to suppress the Azure Lotus Church was not a problem for Xiao Chen. After all, it was free.
Since the other party invited him, Xiao Chen naturally had the qualifications to raise conditions.
Furthermore, did this Xu Ming really think that he was not a match for the Azure Lotus Church without the scarlet bodhi seed?
In that case, Xu Ming underestimated Xiao Chen too much.
"Benefactor Xiao, please wait!"
Just as Xiao Chen was about to leave the Xu Yun Hall, Abbot Xu Ye turned around and arrived before Xiao Chen, holding the scarlet bodhi seed.
"This item is a token of our temple's sincerity. Benefactor Xiao Chen personally killed the Black Lotus Church's Sect Venerate and reconstructed Little Yan Chen's physical body. No matter what, my Buddhist sect is greatly indebted to you. Thus, this item is a gift. "
Xu Ye stepped forward and returned the blood-colored Bodhi to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen did not stand on ceremony. He put away the blood-colored Bodhi and handed over the Golden Book of Buddhism.
"Benefactor Xiao, what is the meaning of this?" Venerable Xu Yun asked after receiving the golden letter.
Xiao Chen said softly, "Senior Xu Ming seems to have a problem with me. I don't know if I can accept the so-called kindness, so I don't dare to be presumptuous. One thing for one thing. "
Xiao Chen still respected Venerable Xu Yun and Abbot Xu Ye. However, Xu Ming treated them with hostility for no reason.
This made Xiao Chen somewhat uncomfortable. It felt like he was deliberately taking advantage of the Hidden Spirit Temple.
"Abbot Xu Ye, you don't have to worry too much. The First Prince and I will not rest until one of us is dead. If the Azure Lotus Church really wants to protect him, I have no reason not to kill them. So, even without your esteemed temple's request, I would still stop this group of people from obtaining the Wings of Time. "
Xiao Chen paused for a moment and said softly, "As for my strength …"
Boom!
Before Xiao Chen could finish speaking, his entire body suddenly released a blue light. His chest looked transparent.
It was crystalline and translucent, resplendent and dazzling.
I have an immortal heart. When the dust scatters and the flower blooms, it will illuminate three lifetimes!
The blue lotus flower under Xiao Chen's feet bloomed elegantly. His white robes looked simple and tidy. With a thought, he executed the Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique's Three Life Flower.
Xiao Chen stood on the lotus flower, but it seemed like he was separated from it by an entire world, appearing boundlessly mysterious.
This was a Saber Technique, but no one could sense any saber intent. This move already reached great perfection. The saber intent in it already existed between formless and tangible.
Formless meant that one could not sense it. Formless meant that the entire state was made of saber intent.
The expressions of Xu Ye and the other two changed, feeling shocked in their hearts. This was not a strength that a Small Perfection Sovereign Emperor should have.
Suddenly, there was a change in the realm.
Xiao Chen's figure on the blue lotus flower turned blurry and distorted. The entire world sank into darkness. A cold killing intent formed by Buddhist Might soared into the clouds, seeming to merge with the Heavenly Dao. The sky shattered, and an eye formed by the Heavenly Dao's killing intent struggled to open.
"Heavenly Eye!"
Xu Yun exclaimed, "This is the Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique's Merciless Killing … If heaven has feelings, it will age. The Heavenly Dao is the most emotionless, and the Heavenly Dao's killing intent is the most powerful. One will die without a doubt if one looks at heaven."
The Heavenly Dao was the most emotionless. When it came to killing, who could compare to heaven?
When heaven opened its eyes, whoever it looked at would die. If heaven wanted to kill, who dared to say no? This was merciless killing.
Xiao Chen casually waved his hand, and the various mysterious phenomena immediately vanished as if nothing had happened.
Xiao Chen bowed slightly and said softly, "This junior was rude and embarrassed myself before the three seniors. As Faux Gods, you naturally do not care about such insignificant tricks. However, I believe that as long as a Peak Sovereign Emperor does not make a move, this junior will be able to protect myself. "
That was right. That earlier move was Merciless Killing, the Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique's sixth move.
Xiao Chen was not trying to show off on purpose. Doing so before three Faux Gods would appear to be overestimating his own abilities.
However, Xiao Chen was truly unconvinced, unconvinced by this false reputation. Xiao Chen's expression showed that he wanted to take advantage of the Hidden Spirit Temple.
"May the Lord Buddha bless me. Benefactor Xiao is too humble. Such skills are an eye-opener for us. Truth be told, aside from Mahāmāyā himself, no one in our temple can practice Merciless Killing. As for Benefactor Xiao's Three Life Flower, it is even more astonishing. It seems to have already surpassed Mahāmāyā's. "
Abbot Xu Ye praised Xiao Chen's Three Life Flower more than the Three Life Flower and Merciless Killing.
This was because Xiao Chen had already practiced the Three Life Flower to great perfection, nearly reaching perfection. He had already surpassed the Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique's limits.
As for Merciless Killing, it was because Xiao Chen had just reached Small Perfection and still had many flaws.
One could tell that it was a little strenuous for him to use it.
However, with the Three Life Flower before him, Xiao Chen believed that Great Perfection was only a matter of time.
"Junior Brother, what do you think?"
Venerable Xu Yun asked Xu Ming with a faint smile.
Naturally, Xu Ming felt very upset. He really wanted to say something insignificant, that it was merely so-so.
However, he clearly could not say such words.
Saying it would be like slapping himself in the face. Hence, Xu Ming showed a sullen expression and decided not to say anything.
Seeing that Xu Ming had nothing to say, Venerable Xu Yun looked at the abbot and said, "Senior Brother, I feel that there are some things that we should honestly tell Benefactor Xiao."
Xiao Chen showed some doubt in his eyes, feeling somewhat confused.
Xu Ye thought for a while. Then, he looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Actually, Benefactor Xiao does not know this. This Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique only has nine moves. The last three moves are the result of Mahāmāyā's disguise, reversing the sequence. If anyone follows Mahāmāyā's instructions and practices the last six moves, they will fall into a state of madness. This is the reason why this technique is classified as a forbidden move. In terms of killing, there are actually several Buddhist sect Martial Techniques with even more ferocious killing intent than the Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique.
"My Buddha is merciful. However, the merciful must be stained with blood. Otherwise, how can they illuminate the world and kill evil?"
When Xiao Chen heard that, he felt slightly stunned. He had not expected there to be such a secret. "In that case, why not announce it to the world?"
Xu Ye sighed softly, "An expert of my Buddhist sect discovered the secret only after a long time. After that, the saber manual was stolen, so we hid this secret to prevent someone from truly practicing this Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique from harming my Buddhist sect."
"So, that is the case."
"As for the last three moves, the Hidden Spirit Temple does indeed have them. However, they are already sealed in an extremely evil land. This is because Mahāmāyā itself is a taboo in the Hidden Spirit Temple. There is no need to elaborate on this reason. "
A thought occurred to Xiao Chen. "So?"
Abbot Xu Ye said after some thought, "Since Benefactor Xiao is already determined to go against the Azure Lotus Church, the Hidden Spirit Temple can lend Benefactor Xiao a hand. We can tell you where the seventh move is. As for whether you can obtain it or not, that will depend on Benefactor Xiao's ability. "
It looked like the Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique did have many implications. The Hidden Spirit Temple could not possibly let Xiao Chen practice the complete version of the Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique and tell him where the seventh move was.
The Hidden Spirit Temple also took a fancy to Xiao Chen's strength, allowing him to fight with the Azure Lotus Church's experts.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Hence, they made an exception this time.
"Where is it?"
Xiao Chen asked.
Abbot Xu Ye said after some thought, "Come with me."
When Xu Ming saw the situation, he felt dissatisfied. However, Xu Ye and Xu Yun already made up their minds. No matter how dissatisfied Xu Ming was, he could not stop them. He snorted coldly and turned to leave.
