Ye Qiu’s pupils suddenly shrank sharply. I saw that in the ninth floor of the pagoda, there was an ancient tree.
The trunk was thick, with a diameter of at least two meters and a height of about three meters. The green leaves were like emeralds, full of vitality.
Just taking a look at it made people feel a sense of peace of mind like still water.
“This is… a thousand-year-old bodhi tree!”
Ye Qiu was shocked in his heart.
The bodhi tree is also known as the enlightenment tree.
Legend has it that back then, Sakyamuni meditated under the bodhi tree for forty-nine days, realized the supreme Buddhist dharma, and finally attained enlightenment and became a Buddha.
Ever since, the bodhi tree has been regarded as a sacred tree by Buddhism.
Ye Qiu didn’t expect that there would actually be a thousand-year-old bodhi tree here.
“What a great treasure.”
Ye Qiu’s eyes lit up. Suddenly, he saw that on the back of the bodhi tree, there stood a three-foot-high stone tablet.
Ye Qiu came to the front of the stone tablet.
The stone tablet was mottled, and it looked like it had been around for a long time. There was a huge “” character engraved on it.
Ye Qiu stared at the character on the stone tablet for a while.
“Huh?”
Ye Qiu was surprised to find that this “” character was engraved by someone with their fingers. Every stroke was filled with a unique charm. Although there was only one character, it could make people feel a sense of grandeur and profundity.
“The person who engraved this character is not simple. Most likely, it is a Buddhist.”
But why would a Buddhist monk erect a stone tablet here?
“What is the intention?”
Ye Qiu continued to stare at the stone tablet.
About ten seconds passed.
Ye Qiu discovered that the strokes of the “” were like a stream of water and actually flowed in his line of sight.
What’s going on?
Ye Qiu rubbed his eyes and took another look.
This time, the “” character was ordinary and there was no change at all.
”Strange!”
Ye Qiu continued to stare at the stone tablet without blinking.
After thirty seconds.
Ye Qiu noticed that the strokes of this “” character seemed to flow like a current again.
Moreover, the faster it flowed.
Just at this time, Ye Qiu found that the blood in his body also flowed rapidly, echoing the flowing speed of the strokes on the stone tablet.
In less than a minute.
Ye Qiu felt that the blood in his body was boiling like boiling water, as if it would rush out of his body at any time, his head was dizzy and his eyes were black.
Ye Qiu quickly took back his gaze.
In an instant, the blood in his body returned to calm.
It was not until this time that Ye Qiu found that his clothes were soaked with cold sweat.
”There is something strange about this stone tablet.”
Ye Qiu simply sat down in front of the stone tablet and opened his celestial eyes. Suddenly, the “” character on the stone tablet emitted a burst of golden light.
The golden light was brilliant, even more dazzling than the sun.
Although Ye Qiu’s eyes were stung with pain, he did not take back his gaze and continued to stare at the stone tablet.
After a while.
The strokes of the “” character began to flow slowly like water, shining with golden light.
Soon, the blood in Ye Qiu’s body also began to flow faster.
The speed gradually increased.
Gradually, the previous feeling returned.
Ye Qiu only felt dizzy and his vision went dark. However, this time, Ye Qiu did not withdraw his gaze and continued to stare at the stone tablet.
Three minutes later.
Ye Qiu’s face was pale, his whole body was covered in cold sweat, and his body was tottering. as if it would fall at any moment.
At a critical moment.
“Buzz!”
The eight innate true qi in his body rushed out from the Baihui acupoint, suspended above Ye Qiu’s head, making intermittent dragon roars.
“Boom!”
Just then, the stone tablet also changed. The “” character shone brightly, propped up a golden light curtain, and the chanting resounded.
Immediately afterwards Ye Qiu saw the shadow of an old monk appear in the light curtain.
The old monk was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hands, and silently reciting scriptures.
”Why did an old monk suddenly appear?”
When Ye Qiu was surprised, a magnificent chanting sound came from his ear.
In an instant, the boiling blood in his body suddenly became calm, and his heart was filled with a sense of tranquility.
At this moment, he felt as if he was in a thousand-year-old ancient temple, listening to a highly accomplished monk chanting scriptures, forgetting all the mundane affairs in the world, and there was not the slightest ripple in his heart.
This feeling was very wonderful.
Time passed by minute by minute.
I don’t know how long it had passed, the old monk suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Ye Qiu.
Those eyes were full of vicissitudes, as if having experienced thousands of years, with boundless wisdom.
Ye Qiu only felt that in front of these eyes, he seemed to be seen through, and there was no secret at all.
A moment later.
The old monk smiled slightly at Ye Qiu, and then, spread out his right palm.
The next second, a pung-sized “” character appeared in the palm of the old monk shining with golden light and exuding a sacred atmosphere.
The old monk pointed with his left hand, indicating that Ye Qiu should stretch out his palm.
Although Ye Qiu didn’t understand why, he still stretched out his right palm.
The old monk gently raised his right hand, and suddenly, that “” character was like a stream of light. quickly drilled into Ye Qiu’s right palm.
Amitabha!
The old monk put his hands together, his lips moved slightly, and a clear Buddhist chant sounded in Ye Qiu’s ear.
Then, the virtual shadow of the old monk disappeared, and that light curtain also disappeared.
The innate true qi returned to Ye Qiu’s body.
Everything returned to calm.
What just happened was like a dream journey.
Ye Qiu lowered his head and looked at his right hand. There was nothing.
Then, he used his celestial eye to take a look and immediately saw a fist-sized swastika in the palm of his right hand, connected to his flesh and blood, exuding a bright golden light.
Ye Qiu was dumbfounded.
”Could it be that everything I just experienced was real?”
”Who was that old monk?”
”Why did he leave this swastika in my palm?”
Click——
A soft sound came from beside his ear.
Ye Qiu looked up and saw that the stone tablet suddenly broke into powder. A gust of breeze blew, and the powder scattered with the wind.
”Will this swastika have any impact on my body?”
Ye Qiu was a little worried. He closed his eyes and felt it, and was shocked to find that there was no discomfort in his body. Not only that, but his cultivation had also improved a lot.
Now, he only needs one opportunity to break through the ninth innate true qi.
”It’s amazing.”
Ye Qiu felt incredible. Then he got up, opened the Qiankun bag, and shouted at the thousand-year-old bodhi tree: “Collect!”
Whoosh——
The thousand-year-old bodhi tree was collected into the Qiankun bag.
Then, Ye Qiu came to the tenth floor of the pagoda again.
This is also the top floor of the pagoda.
As soon as he entered the door, Ye Qiu saw that there were 108 paintings hung on the walls around him.
On each of the paintings, there was a monk and a woman, both almost naked, doing indescribable things.
Moreover, the postures in each painting were different, and the movements were extremely bold.
Even, there were some that Ye Qiu had never seen before.
Ye Qiu also noticed that on the two people in the paintings, some acupoints were specially marked.
This was the case for every painting.
After looking at them for a while, Ye Qiu finally understood.
“Damn it, this is the art of the bedchamber!”
