"I'm not seeing things, am I? Just how much money would have to be spent to create this? I'm rich! I'm rich! I won't be able to spend it all in my lifetime …" Ba Jie spread his arms wide and laughed maniacally as he barged in. In the end, he missed a step and was caught off guard, causing him to tumble down the stairs.
However, this bastard didn't seem to care about it at all. He didn't even invoke any arts to defend himself, as though he was just letting himself fall. Even if it hurt, it was all to confirm that he wasn't dreaming. With just this one step, he had already caught up to Miao Yi, who was the first to enter.
Miao Yi stared dumbfoundedly at the bastard as he rolled past him, then scrambled to his feet. He wanted to ask Ba Jie if he was alright, but when he saw the despicable smile on the bastard's face, he knew there was no need for him to worry about that.
Ba Jie's forehead was bleeding profusely from his kowtowing, and as soon as he got up, he ran as fast as he could. He touched the eastern wall, patted the southern wall, and checked the thickness of the high-purity red crystal walls. Sometimes, he would smile foolishly, and sometimes he would laugh maniacally. When he got excited, he would even hug the relief and give it a kiss.
"Big Brother, we're rich! We're really rich! You don't have to be that bullsh * t Lieutenant anymore. With all these treasures, we can spend them for the rest of our lives. We don't have to play with those bastards anymore!" As he yelled, Ba Jie climbed up to the nine-tiered lotus platform in the center. However, as soon as he leaped onto the lotus petal, he let out a howl and jumped back down. Caught off guard, he was startled by the thing inside the lotus petal. "F * ck! What the hell is that?!"
He finally snapped out of his frenzy of getting rich. After asking Miao Yi about it, he floated up into the air and examined the thing snaking up the nine-tiered lotus platform.
In a flash, Miao Yi landed on the top platform. He lowered his head to look at the huge white snake with jade-white scales and a crystal-clear horn on its head. The tip of the horn shone with a rainbow light as he said, "It's a Yao cultivator guarding the treasure vault!"
Ba Jie landed beside him and muttered as he looked down, "It's already grown a horn on its head. It's no longer suitable for it to burrow. It's already evolved beyond the realm of a snake. Looks like its cultivation is quite high! Eh? That's not right. It's already restrained. How can it guard the treasure vault if it's restrained? Could it be one of the treasures too? Looking at the value of this treasury, the value of this Monster Core must be extraordinary. "
Miao Yi narrowed his eyes and said, "I'm warning you. Don't you dare touch him. This Yao cultivator is specially used to punish greedy people. If you touch him, you'll be in big trouble. Moreover, this monster cultivator's cultivation isn't low, it should be at least in the Vision Domain Realm. Once you activate the restriction, be careful of your life. "
He had long seen that there must be a reason for the existence of the demonic cultivators who were restrained in the treasure place. Whether he should kill them or not had been arranged and arranged. The giant toad that could only gather ice flames provided him with the Yin Fire for his cultivation, and the Clam Confusion that was not controlled to death provided him with the Third Eye. In any case, there was a reason why these Yao cultivators were placed in the treasure vault. The reason was very simple. If they were to be killed, the person who placed the restrictions would have done so long ago. There would be no need for anyone else to do it. Otherwise, if they really wanted to retrieve the Yao cores, Ba Jie would have done it long ago instead of waiting until now.
Because of this, he had no choice but to warn Ba Jie, or even threaten him.
"He's at least at the First Grade of the Illustrious Divine Realm …" Ba Jie smacked his lips and said with a little fear, "Is he really able to control it? He won't suddenly wake up and kill us both, will he? "
Miao Yi said, "If you don't touch him, he won't wake up. But if you do, he will wake up."
Ba Jie said, "Then let's not bother with him. Let's take away the valuables here first." As he said this, he looked around and was gradually taken aback. He muttered, "Big Brother, it seems like it'll be a little troublesome to take away the valuables here. It seems like they're all one entity. There's nothing that we can take away individually. If we were to cut them up, how long would it take?" Then he said doubtfully, "That can't be right. How can there be no other valuables in such a huge treasure vault?" He looked at Miao Yi and said, "Big Brother, don't tell me you've already taken away everything you could before you came in? And now you're bringing me in to chew on the hard bones? "
Miao Yi shot him a sideways glance and said, "You're the only one with such thoughts! Let me tell you. The true value of this treasure vault isn't in the valuables that can be seen with the naked eye. It's in the valuables that others can't see. The latter is far more valuable than the former. "
"Uhh …" Ba Jie looked around again and asked suspiciously, "Really? Why can't I tell? "
Miao Yi asked, "Do you know why Yu Luocha was willing to risk her life to find this treasure vault? Yu Luocha even told me that she was willing to give up her position as the Jade-Faced Buddha as long as she could get her hands on this treasure vault. Don't tell me that someone at Yu Luocha's position is still lacking in money? Let me tell you this as well. The reason why the Nanwu School was annihilated by the demonic monk Nan Bo was also because of this treasure vault. Don't tell me that the wealth that the demonic monk Nan Bo possessed back then was not worth as much as this so-called treasure vault? "
"Even that old demon is after this treasure vault?" Ba Jie was truly taken aback. He began to circle around and examine the place. "Where is it? Big Brother, don't joke around. This poor monk is an honest man. I can't stand your teasing. What's the value of your words?! "
Miao Yi said, "Have you forgotten what Yu Luocha said? Legend has it that the Nanwu School is hiding a copy of the Boundless Buddhist Scripture. Once cultivated, it can encompass all living beings, and it can also annihilate the demonic monk Nan Bo. This should be the reason why the demonic monk Nan Bo annihilated the Nanwu School. It's also something that Yu Luocha was willing to give up her position as Buddha in order to obtain. "
Ba Jie looked around in surprise and asked, "Big Brother, are you saying that the Boundless Buddhist Scripture is hidden here?"
Miao Yi nodded. "It's most likely here. However, I couldn't find any other secret rooms in the treasury even after searching through the entire treasury. Perhaps it's because I'm not a Buddhist disciple that I can't figure out where the Boundless Buddhist Scripture is hidden. This is also the reason why I brought you here. I hope that you can figure out the secret of this treasury and obtain the Boundless Buddhist Scripture that even the demonic monk Nan Bo was wary of!"
This was no small matter. Ba Jie had no choice but to put on a serious expression. He suddenly leaped up to the dome above and began to examine every inch of the treasury, not letting go of even a single detail. Meanwhile, Miao Yi sat cross-legged on the nine-tiered lotus throne and waited.
Ba Jie's examination took almost five days. In the end, he landed beside Miao Yi and took a few gulps of water from his canteen. He shook his head and said, "Big Brother, I can't find it even after searching everywhere."
Miao Yi stood up and pointed to his surroundings. "The last time I was here, I experienced something strange. It came from the carvings in the surroundings. Look in this direction again. For example, I found those three gigantic Buddha statues very strange. One of them is meditating on a lotus throne with a benevolent expression on its face. Another is sleeping on its side, and the last one is standing there barefooted, showing its back. What kind of Buddha statue would only show its back instead of its front? Don't you think it's strange? "
Ba Jie circled around and looked at the three gigantic Buddha statues, then shook his head and said, "I don't think there's anything strange about it. I do have a saying regarding these Buddha statues in the Buddhist teachings that I practice. The one standing barefooted and showing its back is called the 'Buddha of the Past'. It means that the past has passed, and it's just a metaphor. It's not as complicated as you think, Big Brother. As for the one meditating on the lotus throne with a benevolent expression, it's called the 'Buddha of the Present'. It means that it's a Buddha that is currently being worshipped by the masses. That's why it's sitting upright and showing its back to the masses. As for the one sleeping on its side, it's called the 'Buddha of the Future'. It's easy to understand why it looks so peaceful and deep in sleep. It's not in the past, nor is it in the present. When it wakes up, it will naturally be in the future. That's why it's called the 'Buddha of the Future'. These three Buddha statues symbolize the past, present, and future. They are also known as Dharmakaya, Sambhogakaya, and Nirmanakaya. In other words, these three Buddha statues are just symbols for comparison. It's not as strange as you think … strange … strange … as you said … "Ba Jie muttered under his breath as he looked around at the lotus throne beneath his feet.
After all, Miao Yi wasn't a Buddhist disciple. Just as he was listening to Ba Jie's explanation, he noticed Ba Jie's expression and turned to look at the lotus throne beneath his feet as well. Seeing that he couldn't see anything, he couldn't help asking, "Did you notice something?"
Ba Jie rubbed his chin and muttered, "If that's the case, then the position of this lotus throne is indeed a little strange."
It looked like he really did notice something. Miao Yi was overjoyed and asked, "How strange?"
Ba Jie had a suspicious look on his face. He then looked at the three Buddha statues scattered around the ring space and furrowed his brows. "Logically speaking, the Buddha of the Past, Buddha of the Present, and Buddha of the Future can also be interpreted as the process of one's cultivation. From the past to the present, and then to the future, they should be arranged in an orderly fashion. Most people live in the present, so only the 'Buddha of the Present' would be placed in the main hall. Even if all three Buddha statues were to be constructed at the same time, they would be placed side by side, with the lotus throne placed directly beneath them. "However, the situation here is a little strange. The three Buddha statues are arranged in a ring space, which makes it seem like the past, present, and future cycle. Meanwhile, this lotus throne is placed in the center of the three Buddha statues, which makes it seem like the past, present, and future are all in one body … That's what it looks like, but it also seems a little ridiculous. Who could possibly have the past, present, and future all in one body? Could this be the so-called boundless Buddhist dharma? Or could it be that I misunderstood it? That's why I feel that the lotus throne's position is a little strange. Could there be something hidden underneath? But there isn't! I've invoked my arts to investigate the place, but there's really no place to hide anything! "
He turned to Miao Yi and asked, "Big Brother, you said you experienced something strange here the last time. What was it?" Miao Yi shook his head and said, "I don't know either.
Do you see the carvings around us? Last time, I was staring at one of the carvings and got carried away. It was as though I had entered the realm of the painting. Everything in the painting felt like it was happening right before my eyes. It was as though I had really experienced something like that before in my life. I couldn't tell if it was real or not. That's why I suspected that there's something wrong with the carvings around us. So I asked you to follow this direction and investigate. "
"Carvings? Carvings? I've examined them up close and even touched them. There's nothing wrong with them! "Ba Jie exclaimed in surprise. He then turned his gaze to the carvings in front of him and carefully examined them.
