Chu Li looked at Xin Ji.
The abbot did not know martial arts but he had divine powers. From what he knew, Abbot Xin Ji had the God's Limbs and the Mind Connection.
Moreover, the Mind Connection might be stronger than him.
Lu Zhu's mind was in a state of madness. Chu Li could not see clearly but Abbot Xin Ji could. She needed his instructions.
"Amitabha!" Xin Ji chanted the name of Buddha and said gently, "Seeking for benevolence and obtaining benevolence is a blessing for Huicheng. Miss Lu, you don't have to be so sad."
"Haha …" Lu Zhu suddenly laughed.
Her eyes were filled with tears of blood as she stared at Xin Ji. "It's easier said than done. If it wasn't for you guys, Big Brother Zhou wouldn't have to suffer so much and take things too hard!"
Her words were uttered through gritted teeth, giving off an eerie chill.
Xin Ji shook his head calmly. "The temple has already held a ritual to send him to the Western Paradise to cultivate again. Almsgiver Lu, you don't have to be sad. Life and death, life and death, it's all common."
"Shut up!" Lu Zhu screamed. "Alright, life and death are common. It's the same for the secret manual. Alright, I'll give it to Gale Island. Let's see what you guys do!"
Xin Ji frowned and said calmly, "Miss Lu, if that's the case, wouldn't it go against Huicheng's intention? He took the secret manual for you but seeking relief is to persuade you not to give it to Gale Island. It's not good to spread it, right? "
"He's so cruel. I won't listen to him!" Lu Zhu said while gritting her teeth.
As she spoke, she hugged Huicheng's body tightly. Her body trembled and she could not suppress the pain in her heart.
Xin Ji chanted the name of Buddha and sighed. He was about to take action.
"Haha …" A burst of laughter was heard. "It's rare for the Abbot to come personally for a small Tiger Taming Seal secret manual!"
Along with the laughter, two elders appeared.
One was tall and burly in a yellow robe. The other was short and ugly with twenty middle-aged men behind him. They stood in the void silently like ghosts.
The elder in the yellow robe was the island master of Gale Island, Lu Junshan. He laughed loudly. "Master Xin Ji, long time no see! … And this Great Master Huiguang, we haven't had any dealings with him for a long time, but he's still as elegant as ever, haha! Haha! "
Monk Hui Guang pressed his palms together and bowed. "Amitabha!"
Xin Ji put his palms together and smiled. "I didn't expect Island Owner Lu to come here personally. It seems that our temple's Tiger Taming Seal has indeed affected Island Owner's heart. Amitabha!"
When he chanted the name of Buddha, the expressions of the twenty middle-aged men became serious. They couldn't help but put their palms together, and the thought of converting rose in their hearts.
Lu Junshan laughed heartily. "Master Abbot, you're amazing!"
His laughter made the twenty middle-aged men relax, and they hurriedly put down their palms.
Xin Ji didn't really want to fight. He just wanted to intimidate him a little. He smiled amiably and said, "Island Owner Lu is too obsessed with the Tiger-taming Seal. Your island's Spring Breeze and Rain Formula is already a top-notch martial art. Why do you have to beg for it?"
"The combination of the Demon Vanquishing Seal and the Spring Wind and Rain Art is the strongest," Lu Junshan said.
Xin Ji shook his head. "That's only Island Owner Lu's guess. Your island's Spring Breeze and Rain Formula is of the Daoist lineage, while the Tiger-taming Seal is of the Buddhist lineage. You can't practice both at the same time, or you'll be possessed by the devil."
"Haha, if it's any other Buddhist martial art, that's true. However, the Tiger-taming Seal is different. Although it's a Buddhist martial art, it's actually of the Daoist lineage. It's just a hand seal, and Buddhism isn't the only one who has it!" Lu Junshan shook his head and laughed. "Master Abbot, you don't have to bully me!"
"If that's the case, Island Owner Lu is stubborn?" Xin Ji said slowly.
Lu Junshan said, "Since the Tiger-taming Seal has fallen into our hands, of course we won't give it up, unless Master Abbot is capable enough to take it back!"
"Amitabha, very good, very good!" Master Xin Ji put his palms together and chanted the name of Buddha. With a compassionate expression, he said, "If that's the case, I have no choice but to offend you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, eighteen yellow-robed monks appeared behind him.
Their shiny bald heads shone brightly under the sunlight. Their dark yellow robes did not move at all, and they stood quietly like statues. Their faces were so calm that they were almost numb.
"Haha …" Lu Zhu suddenly giggled.
The people from both sides looked over.
"Ridiculous!" Lu Zhu sneered. "Do you really think you can get the Tiger-taming Seal?"
As she spoke, she took out a thin booklet from her bosom and waved it lightly. "You all want to fight for this?"
Even though Xin Ji's heart was as calm as an ancient well, he still stared at the thin yellow booklet. The familiar color let him know that this was the secret manual of the Great Mercy Temple, and not a fake one.
"Little Zhu, what are you doing!?" Lu Junshan frowned and shouted, "Quickly hand it over!"
"Father, do you know that for this stupid secret manual …" Lu Zhu bit her tattered red lips and stared at her father. "Big Brother Zhou lost his life!"
"Little Zhou was the one who couldn't get over it. Who can he blame?" Lu Junshan shook his head. "He asked for it and got it, so he has no regrets!"
"No regrets my a * s!" Lu Zhu scolded, her bright eyes filled with anger. "Do you still have a conscience?!"
"Don't care if I have a conscience or not, quickly hand over the secret manual!" Lu Junshan quickly shouted. "Be careful not to let the monks snatch it!"
"None of you should even think about getting this secret manual!" Lu Zhu shouted.
Xin Ji sighed. "Miss Lu, Huicheng has already ascended to the Western Paradise, there's no need to be so sad."
"Shut up, shut up!" Lu Zhu roared.
Xin Ji shook his head.
Buddhists and the people of the secular world could not explain clearly. They thought it was an illusion, that the Western Paradise did not exist, but they did not know that the Western Paradise was real. No matter what, they did not believe it.
It was like a cow that did not drink water, it was useless to force it to drink.
"Sigh …" Monk Hui Guang sighed.
Chu Li lowered his voice. "Master, there's only one secret manual?"
"Yes. Monk Huiguang said softly, "The key is the visualization diagram and this visualization diagram isn't something that can be drawn by humans. It is condensed by the Buddha's divine ability which is why we can learn it. You can't learn it by copying it."
Chu Li nodded seriously.
In that case, if the secret manual was destroyed, the Taming Tiger Seal would also be lost.
"Little Zhu, what are you doing!" Lu Junshan was getting impatient. "We'll talk about Little Zhou later, give me the secret manual first!"
"Father, I won't give you the secret manual!" Lu Zhu shook her head, tears rolling down her cheeks. "This secret manual was exchanged with Big Brother Zhou's life, I can't give it to you!"
"Then what do you want?!" Lu Junshan shouted. "Are you going to return it to the Great Mercy Temple? Then Little Zhou would have died for nothing! "
"I won't return it to the Great Mercy Temple either!" Lu Zhu wiped her tears and pursed her lips. "I want to destroy this secret manual and let it accompany Big Brother Zhou in the Underworld!"
"Don't you dare!" Lu Junshan roared. "If you dare to destroy the secret manual, you'll accompany Little Zhou in the Underworld!"
"Alright, kill me too!" Lu Zhu shouted.
"You!" Lu Junshan's face turned red, his eyes glinted coldly.
"Amitabha …" Xin Ji said calmly. "Almsgiver Lu, I believe Huicheng is thinking the same."
