“Seek… Buddhist affinity… for the Upper Clarity?”
After Xu Taiping shouted this, all the watching cultivators, including the three from Yuheng Mountain, were speechless for a while.
Because no one expected that Xu Taiping had gone through so many difficulties and obstacles to reach the peak of Lingjiu Mountain, just to seek that illusory Buddhist affinity power.
Not to mention that the Buddhist affinity power of the Upper Clarity has long been cut off for millions of years.
Even when the Buddhist affinity power of the Upper Clarity had not been cut off, wanting to seek a Buddhist affinity inheritance from the Buddhist kingdoms outside the domain could often only be achieved by the highly enlightened monks who were rare in the Buddhist sect for thousands of years.
To put it bluntly, even if he obtained the Buddhist affinity power, what good would it do for him, Xu Taiping, a cultivator of the Daoist sect?
So a cultivator guessed:
“This Xu Taiping may only be ostensibly seeking the Buddhist affinity power, but in fact, he is still seeking a great opportunity related to the Buddhist sect for himself!”
This view was immediately recognized by many watching cultivators in front of the spiritual mirror——
Such a great opportunity can only be obtained with the power of the Buddha’s fate. Just thinking about it makes one’s “hair stand on end!”
“Xu Taiping’s actions are extremely strange and mysterious. The more one observes, the more one feels that he is playing tricks!”
“In any case, all in all, we will have a good show to watch next!”
And when everyone saw that there was no abnormality in the sky above, the number of cultivators who believed in this speculation became more and more.
Even several people from Yuheng Mountain were somewhat shaken at this time.
However, Xu Taiping in the virtual shadow of the Moon Shadow Stone above his head did not waver in the slightest.
After resting for a while and recovering some qi and blood and true essence, he once again raised the Buddha statue in his hand with extremely firm eyes and said loudly:
“True Martial, Qingxuan Xu Taiping, today I seek a Buddha’s fate for this Supreme Purity. I hope that all the Buddhas in the foreign Buddhist kingdoms “will make it possible!”
But just like before, there was no response from the sky above.
Seeing this, Shi Hu Tianjun of Yuheng Mountain immediately smiled bitterly and picked up the jade slip in his hand and said:
“Lao Niu, was it just this matter of Xu Taiping seeking a Buddha’s fate for the Supreme Purity that excited you just now?”
Just like the previous several times of asking, the old cow on the other end of the jade slip did not respond.
Shi Hu Tianjun didn’t care and continued to transmit sound to the jade slip:
“If it were other things, there might still be some possibility, but for this matter, it can only be said that the courage is commendable.”
There was still no response from the jade slip.
And at this time, only Xu Taiping in the shadow of the Moon Shadow Stone once again raised the Buddha statue in his hand high and said loudly:
“Buddhas from outside the domain, Zhenwu Qingxuan Xu Taiping, is here today to seek a Buddhist inheritance. I hope you will make it happen!
“This time, not only was there no response from the sky above, but suddenly deep red Buddhist karma fire emerged from the lotus platform under his feet.”
“Boom!”
Under the burning of this karma fire, the layers of body-protecting astral qi around Xu Taiping were continuously burned and broken.
Seeing this, Shi Hutian Jun immediately frowned and said:
“I didn’t expect that after so many years, the karma fire in which the eminent monk passed away on this lotus platform still hasn’t t gone out.
After seeing the group of karma fire rising on the lotus platform, a group of cultivators also talked a lot——
“Since there is still a relic of the Buddhist karma fire on this lotus platform, the possibility that there is a great Buddhist opportunity hidden here is even greater!”
“I am now even more curious about what the great opportunity on Lingjiu Peak is exactly!”
Besides the cultivators who were looking forward to seeing what the great opportunity was, there were also many cultivators who shouted and asked about the origin and power of the Buddhist karma fire in the spirit mirror.
Xiahou You heard this and immediately frowned and said:
Although the karma fire of this Buddhist sect does not cause much harm to the physical body, the burning of the soul is far stronger than the true fire, and it is not as harmless as it seems on the surface.
When Xiahou You said these words, it could be seen that the complexion of Xu Taiping standing on the lotus platform became obviously distorted.
Xiahou Qingyuan, on the other hand, folded his arms and said expressionlessly:
“But under normal circumstances, a cultivator in the Transcendent Realm of the Heaven-Shaking Realm can persist for a cup of tea’s time without any problem.”
Xiahou You did not answer, but just stared at Xu Taiping in the phantom with his eyes.
It could be seen that at this time, after adjusting his breath several times, Xu Taiping once again raised the Buddha statue in his hand and said loudly:
“Zhenwu Qingxuan Xu Taiping, asking the Buddhas outside the domain for a force of Buddhist affinity for this Supreme Purity!”
Almost at the same time as his voice fell, the karma fire on the lotus platform under his feet suddenly “miso” and the flame grew a little stronger.
But Xu Taiping seemed to be competing with this karma fire. Instead of jumping off the lotus platform to rest for a while and then coming again, he didn’t even adjust his breath. Holding the Buddha statue in his hand that hadn’t been put down, he continued to say loudly:
“Zhenwu Qingxuan Xu Taiping, asking the Buddhas outside the domain for a force of Buddhist affinity for this Supreme Purity!”
But even so, there was still no response from the sky above.
For a time, many cultivators who had firmly believed that Xu Taiping was seeking a great opportunity began to doubt the motivation of his once again.
Some cultivators even felt that Xu Taiping’s move had no deep meaning and was just trying to play tricks on everyone in front of the spiritual mirror.
This speculation gradually reached its peak in the shouts in the spiritual mirror in the teahouse after Xu Taiping shouted dozens of times in a row and the sky above his head still showed no response.
Some cultivators in the teahouse even asserted:
“This Xu Taiping is just playing tricks on us!”
Even Shi Hutianjun, who had originally held a lot of expectations for Xu Taiping, was a little disappointed at this time and said, “Even if this Xu Taiping has some dissatisfaction with the cultivation of the Supreme Purity, he shouldn’t play tricks on them like this.”
Xiahou Qingyuan even snorted coldly and said:
“With this kind of mentality, even if the talent is good, it will definitely not go far in the future.”
When saying this, he also turned his head and glanced at Xiahou You, wanting to see her expression at this time.
However, to Xiahou Qingyuan’s disappointment, at this moment, there was not a trace of disappointment on Xiahou You’s face, but she became even more excited.
As if perceived Xiahou Qingyuan’s gaze, Xiahou You spoke without turning her head:
“Second brother, although this is just my hunch, I think you are all wrong.”
Xiahou Qingyuan frowned and asked:
“What’s wrong?”
Xiahou You still didn’t turn his head and replied:
“Why? Can’t Xu Taiping really be seeking a Buddhist fate for this Upper Clear Realm?”
Before Xiahou Qingyuan could open his mouth to refute, the shadow of Xu Taiping in the Moon Shadow Stone once again raised the Buddha statue in his hand high and said loudly:
“Zhenwu Qingxuan Xu Taiping, requests the power of a Buddhist fate for this Upper Clear Realm from the Buddhas outside the domain. I hope for your fulfillment!”
Hearing this, Xiahou Qingyuan sneered and said:
“Seeking something that simply doesn’t exist in this world. Other than deliberately playing tricks on us, what’s the point?”
As if in response to Xiahou Qingyuan’s words from a distance, Xu Taiping once again raised the Buddha statue in his hand high and roared loudly towards the sky.
Seeing this, Xiahou Qingyuan immediately curled his lip and said:
“Even if he shouts another thousand times, ten thousand times, there won’t be any…”
“Boom! ——”
Before Xiahou Qingyuan could say the word “response”, a deafening explosion sound came from the shadow of the Moon Shadow Stone above his head, interrupting him.
Following that, the faces of Xiahou Qingyuan and all the other cultivators all turned into expressions of horror and shock.
Because with the just sounded explosion, in the center of the sky directly facing the peak of Lingjiu, circles of clouds transformed by Buddha’s light suddenly appeared.
This is exactly the most common auspicious cloud pattern on the monk robes or kasayas of Buddhist disciples.
More importantly, according to the previous rumors related to the power of Buddhist affinity, every time the Buddhist affinity from the foreign Buddhist kingdoms descends, it will be accompanied by the appearance of auspicious clouds.
“Could it be that the power of Buddhist affinity will really descend at this time?”
“Impossible. Since the power of Buddhist affinity was cut off, Buddhist disciples have tried countless times but failed to attract the power of Buddhist affinity again. Xu Taiping, a disciple of the Taoist sect, can attract it just by trying once?”
The crowd of watching cultivators in the teahouse also had a look of horror on their faces at this time.
“Boom!”
Just as the crowd of cultivators in the teahouse were talking and discussing, another huge explosion sound came out from the Shadow of the Moon Shadow Stone above their heads.
In an instant, I saw that the circles of auspicious clouds in the center of the sky above the peak of Lingjiu suddenly expanded again in this explosion sound.
At the same time, wisps of Buddha’s light spread out along the circles of auspicious clouds.
For a while, above the originally gloomy sky on the peak of Lingjiu, the auspicious clouds were rolling and the Buddha’s light was faint.
It was a prosperous scene of a Buddhist kingdom.
At this moment, all the cultivators including Stone Lake Heavenly Monarch seemed to have lost their voices, their eyes fixed firmly on the Moon Shadow Stone or the spirit mirror above their heads without blinking.
After a long time, a cultivator’s voice filled with disbelief was heard exclaiming in the teahouse:
“He really invited down the Buddhist heritage inheritance!”
Immediately after, the cultivator was heard to add and correct:
“This Xu Taiping really invited down a strand of Buddhist heritage inheritance!”
Immediately, there was an uproar in the teahouse.
Similarly, the shouts of the watching cultivators also kept ringing out in the spirit mirror.
Obviously, none of the watching cultivators in the five directions of the world could have dreamed that Xu Taiping had actually welcomed down a strand of Buddhist heritage inheritance.
However, after carefully comparing the current scene of the clouds covering the sky in the Shadow of the Moon Shadow Stone with the scene of the descent of the Buddhist heritage inheritance he had seen in the Moon Shadow Stone hidden in Yuheng Mountain, Stone Lake Heavenly Monarch of Yuheng Mountain suddenly shook his head with a solemn expression and said:
“This is indeed a sign of the descent of the Buddhist heritage inheritance, but currently, only the passage between the Upper Clear and the Buddhist kingdoms outside the domain has been opened. Whether a strand of Buddhist heritage inheritance can really be invited down is still unknown.”
As if worried that Xiahou You beside him would think that he was deliberately belittling Xu Taiping, Stone Lake Heavenly Monarch immediately added and explained with a serious face:
“According to the scene that has appeared before, where a Buddhist high monk follows the inheritance of Buddhist fate from the foreign Buddhist kingdoms the auspicious clouds and the Buddhist kingdoms are only the scenes when the passage between the foreign Buddhist kingdoms and the Supreme Pure Realm is opened.”
Whether there will be an inheritance of Buddhist fate descending from this passage still depends on whether the phantom of the golden wheel appears in the passage intertwined by the auspicious clouds and the Buddhist light next.”
“Because this golden wheel is precisely the thing for passing on the Dharma in the foreign Buddhist kingdoms.”
Only when the golden wheel appears and is inserted into the Buddha statue in Xu Taiping’s hand can this inheritance of Buddhist fate be considered successfully introduced ed.
At the beginning, when hearing these words, Xiahou You still had some doubts, but immediately she heard Xu Taiping’s shout like a roar again from the spiritual mirror above her head
“Zhenwu Qingxuan Xu Taiping, requests the power of a Buddhist fate for this Supreme Pure Realm from all the Buddhas in the foreign Buddhist kingdoms!”
Seeing this, Xiahou Qingyuan immediately frowned and murmured:
“Xu Taiping is still requesting the power of Buddhist fate from the foreign Buddhist kingdoms. It seems that as the Third Uncle said, the current scene is only a sign that the power of Buddhist fate is about to descend.”
Xiahou You bit her lip and said:
“Since he has persisted until this step, Xu Taiping will definitely not give up.”
Hearing this, Shi Hu Tianjun immediately let out a soft sigh and said:
“Whether he wants to give up or not, it won’t be up to him next.”
Immediately, he explained to Xiahou You, who was looking at him with a confused expression: “If the rumors are correct, after the passage between Shangqing and the Buddhist kingdoms outside the domain is opened, there will be a continuous descent of chaotic auras from outside the domain.”
After these auras descend, they will fuse with the five-element forces of the Shangqing Realm and continuously transform into huge stones, wind, and fire that will attack Xu Taiping.”
Unless one has made full and complete preparations, no one dares to directly receive them.”
Upon hearing these words, Xiahou You’s heart immediately tightened again.”
And almost at the moment when the voice of the Stone Lake Heavenly Monarch fell, a extremely violent gust of wind suddenly “boomed” and was born out of thin air from the center of the auspicious cloud passage above Lingjiu Peak, and slashed towards Xu Taiping on the peak like a long knife.”
”Zheng!”
Facing this blow that came from the sky, Xu Taiping raised the Buddha statue in his hand with one hand and then, without hesitation, slashed out with a knife towards the gust of wind that was like a blade.”
