"Still not enlightened? Still not enlightened? "
Xi Chen was at a loss and asked back, "Junior didn't enlighten?"
"Did you?" Xiao Hua asked back. "I don't know. Besides, what does it have to do with me whether you're enlightened or not?"
With that, Xiao Hua ignored Xi Chen and nodded at Jiu Xia. The two of them strode towards Saint Xiao City.
"Yeah, did I enlighten?"
Xi Chen didn't stop Xiao Hua. Instead, he looked at Xiao Hua's back in a daze and muttered to himself.
"Brother-in-law …" Jiu Xia didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She said, "What are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"
"Don't you ever understand …" Xiao Hua laughed. "If you understand, the Buddha Kingdom will have another charming female Bodhisattva!"
"Hehe, then I won't think about it!" Jiu Xia replied with a smile.
"Mm, this is the Buddhist mantra. If you don't understand, then you really don't understand. You won't know what to say even if you think about it for tens of thousands of years. But if you understand, then it's really … the Great Dao. This little donkey is fated with Buddha. I also want to help him …"
"Brother-in-law …" Jiu Xia said in surprise. "Could it be that you understand Buddhism too? If I go to the Buddha Kingdom as a female Bodhisattva, then won't you be the Buddha Lord? "
"Damn, you can even see through that. Amazing!"
Looking at Xiao Hua's smile, Jiu Xia's heart was about to be drunk. She had wanted to hear this voice for hundreds of thousands of years!
However, Jiu Xia was suddenly shocked. She hurriedly reached out and grabbed Xiao Hua's arm. She cried out, "Brother-in-law, why are you leaving by yourself?"
Xiao Hua understood what Jiu Xia meant. He smiled and was about to speak when his body suddenly stiffened. He looked up not far away.
At that moment, Xiao Hua and Jiu Xia had already reached the city gates of Saint Xiao City. The tall city walls reached the clouds and an indescribable aura hit them in the face. And Xiao Hua could clearly sense that Saint Desolate City's formation … was no longer the formation he had set up in the past.
Back then, Xiao Hua discussed with his clones and spent several months building the array formation and the city. He also taught the operation of the array formation to the human race. The array formation was the Capital Star Array and Pleiades Devil Devouring Immortal Array that Xiao Hua was proficient in!
By now, Xiao Hua knew that the spell formation had been gone for hundreds of thousands of years. It was not only because of the passage of time, but also because of the attacks of the Demon Tribe. As for the city … although Xiao Hua had been in a hurry and hadn't paid much attention to it, it was no longer the city of the past!
Not only was the outline different, but the area it covered was also much larger!
Things were no longer there, people were no longer there. Only time passed quietly. At this moment, Xiao Hua had an indescribable feeling in his heart! Although he was already a True Immortal … Xiao Hua still found it hard to avoid the place he had poured his heart and soul into!
Jiu Xia naturally noticed Xiao Hua's strange behavior. She nudged Xiao Hua with her arm and whispered, "Brother-in-law, Saint Xiao City … has changed a lot since little sister left. After all, it has to protect the human race and resist the Demon Tribe. Brother-in-law and the other Great Sages were in a hurry back then and couldn't consider everything!"
Xiao Hua had not let Wannian out. Since he sat on Jiu Xia's flying shuttle, he was like an ordinary cultivator. He wanted to use his heart to experience the vicissitudes of time and see the changes in people's hearts. This was something he had been missing since he ascended to the Immortal Realm.
"Haha …" Hearing Jiu Xia's comforting words, he laughed and said, "You think too much. When we built Saint Xiao City, our purpose was to let the human race gain a foothold in the Ten Thousand Demon Realm. Now that the human race has begun to flourish in the Ten Thousand Demon Realm, the purpose of Saint Xiao City … has been achieved. Why should I be sad? It's better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. Now that the human race can stand on its own, I'm relieved! "
Under Jiu Xia's insistence, Xiao Hua allowed Jiu Xia to fly him into Saint Xiao City.
Saint Xiao City was obviously more crowded than the cities Xiao Hua had seen before. It was far from the decline and desolation that Xiao Hua had imagined. Moreover, the layout of Saint Xiao City was similar to that of the past, divided into several regions. However, the people living in these regions were not Buddhism, Confucianism, or Taoism. Xiao Hua also heard Jiu Xia's explanation. The changes in the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth in the four major continents had affected Taoism the most. Buddhism and Confucianism were not affected too much. Therefore, after the apocalypse of the Mayfly in the Upper World, they used the passage between the two worlds to return to the four major continents, leaving only a few people here.
As Xiao Hua watched, he couldn't help but have two questions.
First, the human race in Saint Xiao City was diverse. There were cultivators and mortals. The earliest big city had become the inner city, and the later ones built by the human race became the outer city. Most of the people in the inner city were cultivators, and most of the people in the outer city were mortals. After Jiu Xia explained a little, Xiao Huayu understood. After decades of development, the human race had gradually increased, but the Demon Realm was still the world of the demon race. Those who had the ability to go out also went out, and those who did not could only survive in a few big cities.
Although Saint Xiao City had declined, it was still a place where the human race could live. Many low-level cultivators and even mortals lived here.
Xiao Hua's second question was about Buddhism! The Buddhist sect disciples that Xiao Hua brought were all from the Great Thunderclap Temple, and the little monk seemed to be from the Exquisite Temple. Now that the Exquisite Temple was flourishing in the Ten Thousand Demon Realm, what about the disciples left behind by the Great Thunderclap Temple? What did the Mahavairocana Buddha of the four major continents say?
Jiu Xia naturally could not answer this question. She could only bring Xiao Hua to the inner city's core.
The inner city's core was a huge palace. At this time, there were no cultivators occupying it. The halls of the palace were open, and inside each hall, whether it was the walls or the pillars, there were some inscriptions. Some of these inscriptions were protected by arrays, and some were not.
In front of each inscription, some were sitting cross-legged, and some were standing with rapt attention. There were always some cultivators comprehending.
Jiu Xia brought Xiao Hua through the palace and flew towards the center. She whispered, "After Brother-in-law ascended, this place was originally occupied by the Fortune Gate's disciples. The cultivators called it the Fortune Gate Palace. Later, Liu Yi and the others brought the disciples to the Towering Sky Peak, and this place was empty. Because of Brother-in-law's statue in the center of the hall, no cultivators dared to occupy it. Wang Bianfei was quick-witted. He said that it was a pity that this place was empty, and that it would be better to leave behind the human race's cultivation techniques for future generations to comprehend. Therefore, Wang Bianfei and the others took the lead and left their cultivation techniques and insights here. Later, cultivators from other sects, the Dao Alliance, and the Heaven Alliance also began to leave behind their cultivation techniques. Of course, there were many people who came later, and not just any cultivation technique could be engraved … "
"Indeed …" Xiao Hua's gaze swept across, and he already understood. He smiled and said, "Most of them are ordinary cultivation techniques, and there are good and bad ones mixed together. It still depends on one's luck."
"That's …" Jiu Xia smiled and said, "This is only the periphery. The cultivation techniques left behind by Liu Yi and the others are still inside!"
As she spoke, Jiu Xia pulled Xiao Hua's hand and flew past a layer of restrictions. What greeted them was a huge waterfall, and the waterfall formed a water ring to protect the front. Jiu Xia was stunned and asked curiously, "Since when were there restrictions here?"
"Swoosh …" Water splashed from the waterfall, and a Nascent Soul cultivator stepped out. This cultivator wore a light green robe, and his expression was arrogant.
