Zhou Wen glanced at the blood-colored avatar's stats and saw that the Heart Meditation in the Primordial Energy Skill had vanished. Replacing it was Blood Meditation.
Zhou Wen attempted to activate Blood Meditation as a cool aura surged out of his heart. The aura flowed through his blood to every corner of his body, making him feel indescribably refreshed and comfortable.
As for Zhou Wen's skin, it suffused a strange flush that made him look a little odd.
It felt somewhat different from Heart Meditation. Furthermore, the Primordial Energy expenditure seemed to be much slower. One point of Primordial Energy could last nearly three minutes. With Zhou Wen's upper limit of 10 Primordial Energy, he could use Blood Meditation for about half an hour.
If Blood Meditation is like Heart Meditation and can restrain Small Buddha Temple's mysterious powers, it'll be enough for me to run a few rounds on the stone steps in front of Small Buddha Temple. Zhou Wen didn't waste any more time as he got the blood-colored avatar to ride the Silver-Winged Flying Ant and fly towards Small Buddha Temple.
Indeed, as Zhou Wen had imagined, Blood Meditation and Heart Meditation had the same ability. After the blood-colored avatar activated Heart Meditation, it ran up the stone steps until it reached Small Buddha Temple's entrance without any accidents.
Small Buddha Temple was in a dilapidated state. The plaque on the door had already faded and many parts of the temple's walls had collapsed.
Pushing open the dust-covered door, Zhou Wen saw the scene inside and was slightly taken aback.
He was already prepared to fight powerful dimensional creatures, but there were no dimensional creatures in the yard. There was only a stone monument erected in the middle of the yard.
Small Perfection of Wisdom Sutra? Zhou Wen couldn't help but feel puzzled when he saw the biggest words on the stone monument.
The Great Perfection of Wisdom Sutra was a well-known name. In the past, it was the theoretical foundation of Mahayana Buddhism. After the dimensional storms, a Buddhist believer had figured out a Primordial Energy Art from it. Together with the Agama Sutra, it was one of the two major Buddhist Primordial Energy Arts. They were both Epic Primordial Energy Arts that were in no way inferior to the Li family's Invincible Connate Divine Art.
However, Zhou Wen had never heard of the Small Perfection of Wisdom Sutra. The name sounded like a joke no matter how he looked at it.
He got the blood-colored avatar to walk closer and carefully read the content. After reading it for a while, he immediately felt his head swell as though it was about to explode.
This sutra is odd! Zhou Wen was alarmed. Just as he was about to move his gaze away from the scripture, he suddenly felt the flow of Primordial Energy in his body slow down.
Ever since Zhou Wen cultivated the Lost Immortal Sutra, it had been automatically circulating without him needing to deliberately cultivate it.
Now, the Lost Immortal Sutra's rotation had suddenly slowed down. This was something that had never happened before, but after the Lost Immortal Sutra's flow slowed down, Zhou Wen felt the splitting headache ease.
When Zhou Wen read the Small Perfection of Wisdom Sutra again, he didn't feel as uncomfortable as before.
Zhou Wen was surprised as he continued reading the scriptures. He realized that the more scriptures he read, the slower the flow of Lost Immortal Sutra became.
There were just too many words on the monument. After reading for a while, Zhou Wen was about to continue reading when he suddenly saw the screen turn black. The blood-colored avatar had died.
"Ah!" Only then did Zhou Wen recall that he had Blood Meditation activated all this time. After reading the scriptures for so long, Blood Meditation had drained his Primordial Energy and stopped circulating.
From the looks of it, Small Buddha Temple is the same as the stone steps. There's an evil force enveloping it. Without Blood Meditation to protect me, death awaits me. If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have read the Small Perfection of Wisdom Sutra, Zhou Wen thought to himself.
After dripping his blood to transform and re-entering the Underground Buddha City dungeon, Zhou Wen first went to the lotus pond. He planned on grinding the Mutated Buddha Heart Lotus again. It would naturally be best if a Companion Egg dropped. Even if it didn't, a Primordial Energy Crystal would be enough to replenish his Primordial Energy.
However, after spending so much effort, he finally killed the Mutated Buddha Heart Lotus again, only to find a Strength 14 Crystal.
The blood-colored avatar picked up the Strength Crystal and absorbed it, but its Strength stat didn't increase. It remained at 10.
From the looks of it, even if I cultivate the Lost Immortal Sutra, there's still a bottleneck. I can't exceed the limit of 10 points at the Mortal stage. Zhou Wen was somewhat disappointed.
After killing all the Buddha Heart Lotuses and replenishing his Primordial Energy with great difficulty, Zhou Wen headed for Small Buddha Temple once again.
This time, Zhou Wen didn't waste any time at the stone monument. After entering the temple, he ran straight for the temple hall that faced the main door.
The temple hall was already in a dilapidated state. The roof had collapsed and the door was slanted, as though it would collapse at any moment. There wasn't a plaque on the door, so it was unknown what the temple's name was.
The blood-colored avatar pushed forward, causing the door to creak as it fell into the temple hall. With a loud bang, it stirred up a cloud of dust.
As he looked at the dust-filled temple, the first thing he saw was a Buddha statue.
Although it was a cartoonish Buddha statue in-game, it still gave Zhou Wen a fright. The Buddha statues Zhou Wen had seen were typically benevolent and had a dignified and elegant posture. Only a few Guardian Vajras would have angry looks.
However, deities like the Guardian Vajras wouldn't be placed in the main hall. As for the Buddha statue in the main hall, it had a face that resembled a devil's. Although it didn't have an angry expression, it left one shuddering as though it was staring coldly at them.
Bam! Zhou Wen only managed to take a glance before the blood-colored avatar exploded the moment it stepped into the temple hall, turning into a pool of blood. The game screen also turned black.
Zhou Wen broke out into a cold sweat. Small Buddha Temple sure is creepy. I can die just by taking a look. Thankfully, I didn't go there with my real body. Otherwise, no matter how many lives I have, it wouldn't be enough. I wonder how those human seniors explored dimensional zones in the past. To have their present accomplishments, I'm afraid countless lives have been sacrificed.
Although Zhou Wen had read stories of soldiers sacrificing themselves while exploring dimensional zones back when he was in school, it wasn't as shocking as experiencing it for himself.
Zhou Wen thought again. After entering the temple, even Blood Meditation is useless. However, there's a stone monument with the Small Perfection of Wisdom Sutra in the temple. It might be of some use, but it's clearly a Primordial Energy Art. I've already cultivated the Lost Immortal Sutra, so it's impossible for me to change to another Primordial Energy Art. Furthermore, Small Buddha Temple is so strange. Who knows if there's a problem with the Primordial Energy Art?
After some hesitation, Zhou Wen decided to enter Small Buddha Temple and memorize the scriptures inside.
As for functions like taking pictures, he didn't even need to think about it. Ordinary phones couldn't capture the scenes on the mysterious phone, so all Zhou Wen could do was memorize them himself.
The scriptures were too long, but thankfully, they weren't like the Lost Immortal Sutra, which he couldn't memorize. Zhou Wen only memorized a few paragraphs at a time. He would leave Small Buddha Temple when it was about time and recover his Primordial Energy.
By the time Zhou Wen finished memorizing the scriptures, he realized that it was already daybreak. He hadn't slept the entire night.
