While Fa Xiang was leading the way to the back of the mountain, he was puzzled. The back of the mountain was the forbidden area of the Sound of Heaven Temple. Even if it was him, without the permission of his master, he was not allowed to enter. Why would his master allow Mu Qingxiao to enter?
Of course, although he was puzzled, he did not specifically ask. Instead, he led the way.
Mu Qingxiao was bored and asked, "Fa Xiang shixiong, where is this wordless jade wall, where did it come from?"
Fa Xiang smiled as he walked. "It's a long story. When the wordless jade wall appeared, naturally no one knows. It is only known that a thousand years ago, when the founder of the Sound of Heaven Temple was still a monk, he wandered around. One day, for some reason, he mistakenly entered the mountains of Xumi Mountain and lost his way. He could no longer walk out."
"With no other choice, the Patriarch wandered around the forest. It was also a natural Buddhist fate that he saw a stone wall as smooth as jade. At that time, the Patriarch was exhausted and rested under the Wordless Jade Wall."
Fa Xiang paused for a moment before continuing, "Legend has it that the ancestor sat under the Wordless Jade Disc for three days and three nights. I don't know why, but he went from being unable to enter a meditative state to a state of great perfection in Buddhism. After three days, he actually comprehended Buddhism in the Wordless Jade Disc. In addition, legend has it that …"
Fa Xiang turned his head and smiled mysteriously at Mu Qingxiao, saying, "Legend has it that the founder also comprehended the supreme true technique of my Tian Yin Temple, the Great Burning Prajna that has been passed down for generations under the wordless jade annulus. Thus, it established my Tian Yin Temple's position in the world of cultivation."
Mu Qingxiao nodded slightly. He naturally knew all this. What he wanted to know was whether these stone tablets and jade wall were related to the owner of the Sky Emperor's treasure house, and not the experience of the old monk.
Fa Xiang was attentive, he saw the change in Mu Qingxiao's expression. Although he was surprised, he did not say anything. As for Lu XueQi, who was following beside, he maintained a frosty look. Only when he looked at Mu Qingxiao, his eyes were gentle.
The three of them walked along the mountain road for half an hour. Unknowingly, they had left the Sound of Heaven Temple far behind.
Mu Qingxiao also did not expect that the terrain of the mountain range behind Tian Yin Temple was actually much larger than he imagined. He saw the surrounding mountain ranges were stacked with verdant green, the mountain breeze blew gently. Along the way, there were strange and abrupt rocks, there were all kinds of strange things, or there were broken cliffs and waterfalls falling from the sky, the roaring sound was incessant.
Along the way, he only felt that his mind was broadened. Looking at the beautiful scenery around him, he did not feel bored.
After a while, Fa Xiang said, "The Wordless Jade Disc is in front of us."
Mu Qingxiao looked ahead, only to see the winding mountain road ahead. On one side of the road was a dense forest, and on the other side was weeds and thorns. Three feet away was a cliff. There was no such thing as FaXiang had said, the seven-foot-tall wordless jade wall.
Fa Xiang smiled. He walked a few steps forward to the top of the cliff. He looked back and said, "It's here."
Mu Qingxiao led Lu XueQi to his side and raised his eyes to look. He could only see the fog at the bottom of the cliff, like rolling waves, surging endlessly. In his line of sight was the appearance of a valley, and in the distance, he could faintly see the vague silhouettes of mountains, but they were all very far away.
Mu Qingxiao pondered. He looked at Fa Xiang and said, "Is it in the valley below?"
"That's right. It's under our feet. Let's go down." Fa Xiang jumped down. Mu Qingxiao held Lu XueQi and floated down.
The lower they went, the thinner the fog. After a moment, the scenery below suddenly became clear. There was a small stone platform. It was quite smooth. It was about three feet in radius. The trees were sparse.
Mu Qingxiao held Lu XueQi and floated to the ground. He said, "Brother Fa Xiang, where is the wordless jade wall?"
Fa Xiang smiled and said, "In a moment, Senior Brother Mu will be able to see it."
Mu Qingxiao nodded slightly. At this moment, there was a faint whistling sound in the sky. It was the sound of the wind or the howling of beasts. It penetrated the clouds and fog. Then, a beam of dazzling light directly tore a crack in the thick fog and poured on the two.
Mu Qingxiao's expression remained the same. He raised his head and looked over. He saw strange noises coming from the valley like rolling thunder. The sea of fog suddenly had waves, and then more and more cracks appeared. The fog also became thinner and thinner, and beams of light shone through.
Facing this strange phenomenon, Mu Qingxiao stared at it for a long time. His heart was calm. He had seen strange phenomena hundreds of times more terrifying than this. It was difficult for such a small phenomenon to make his heart flutter.
After a moment, the thick fog drifted away and the light shone down. In an instant, the world was filled with dazzling light. Lu XueQi and Fa Xiang were unable to look at it. Mu Qingxiao smiled because the wordless jade wall did not fall from the sky. Instead, it gradually appeared like a ripple.
There must be a formation around it. It was just that the formation was very clever and did not leave any trace. Otherwise, he would have seen it.
In other words, what they saw just now was not a strange phenomenon. It might be an illusion set up by the owner of the wordless jade wall. Anyone who came here could see it.
In front of him, behind the stone platform, under the cliff, there was a mirror-like precipice with wallpaper hanging down. It was more than seven feet high and more than four feet wide. The material of the cliff was like jade but not jade. It was very smooth and reflected the beautiful scenery of the world. The mountains far and near were all reflected in the jade wall.
It was not the first time Fa Xiang had seen the wordless jade wall. Even so, he was still amazed. He said, "Brother Mu, my teacher asked you to comprehend it as you wish. I still have things to do in the temple. I will come back tomorrow at this time."
Having said that, Fa Xiang jumped up the cliff. Mu Qingxiao smiled. One day was enough for him to comprehend it.
When Fa Xiang's figure disappeared, Mu Qingxiao sat down cross-legged on the ground. Lu XueQi also sat down cross-legged. The two of them began to comprehend it at the same time.
After a while, there was a sudden clap of thunder in the sky and the sky darkened.
Wind and clouds rolled in from all directions. On the smooth surface of the wordless jade wall, a row of words appeared as if they were deeply engraved from top to bottom. In addition, there were also countless golden words that were difficult to understand flashing and jumping on the jade wall as if they were boiling. It was a dazzling sight.
The row of words was especially clear. It was — Heaven and Earth are not benevolent and treat all things as straw dogs!
Mu Qingxiao's mind stopped on the wordless jade wall. The golden words turned into rays of light and entered his mind. The System's notification sounded again. "Ding! Successfully collected five Tomes of the Arcane. Mission 4/5 completed."
Mu Qingxiao was still sitting cross-legged on the ground with a smile on his face. In this way, only the last Tomes of the Arcane was left in the Emperor of Heaven's Treasury.
With the Tomes of the Arcane in hand, Mu Qingxiao did not get up. Instead, he began to comprehend the ancient and difficult golden words on the wordless jade wall. They were the truth of the world. This was a very rare opportunity, so he would not let it go.
