Before Xu Taiping could step forward, Dongfang Jing stepped forward and explained:
“This is a Buddhist inheritance that Little Daoist Taiping obtained for our Mysterious Desolation Heaven from the Lingjiu Peak of the Thousand Buddhas Kingdom in the Barbaric Wilderness.”
While saying this, Dongfang Jing gently threw a maple leaf transformed from a soul imprint towards the woman who was the spirit of the Wenting Bell.
“Can one still obtain a Buddhist affinity on the Lingjiu Peak?”
Although Zhongling had a surprised expression on her face, out of trust in Dongfang Jing, she still extended a finger and gently touched the flying maple leaf.
The moment the maple leaf touched the woman’s fingertip, it suddenly turned into a gust of breeze, blowing up the woman’s long hair.
In the instant when the breeze blew past, the woman transformed by Zhongling suddenly trembled, and a pair of hot and passionate eyes filled with surprise and gratitude then stared fixedly at Xu Taiping in front.
Facing this gaze, Xu Taiping just nodded gently at the woman with an expressionless face.
The woman then solemnly saluted Xu Taiping and said with great gratitude:
“Thank you, Taiping Daozhang, for your great righteousness!”
Xu Taiping didn’t expect that the spirit of the Wenting Bell, who was like a mountain and water deity, would actually show such an expression because of these ordinary living beings in the Xuanhuang Heaven.
So he smiled slightly at the woman and said:
“The immortal is too kind. I sought this Buddhist affinity also for myself.”
Although this inheritance of the Buddhist affinity was sought for the Xuanhuang Heaven from the very beginning, its main motivation was still for the plan behind the Qingxuan Sect, so he didn’t want the common people of the Xuanhuang Heaven to be grateful to him because of this.
Zhong Ling didn’t waste any words at this time and pointed to the Asking Heaven Bell aside and said to Xu Taiping:
“Little Taiping Daoist, you just need to put your hand on the wall of this bell, and you can travel through the entire Mysterious Wilderness Heaven in an instant.”
“From the birds in the sky to the fish and insects below, nothing will be unseen.”
“After you have seen the scenery of the entire Mysterious Wilderness Heaven, you will naturally understand where this Buddha statue should be placed.”
As Xu Taiping walked towards that big bell, he said with some worry:
“Will it take too much time?”
Zhong Ling smiled and shook her head and said:
“It’s all my divine power traveling through heaven and earth, so there’s no need to worry about wasting time in vain.”
After Xu Taiping put his hand on the wall of the bell, she continued:
“In the time it takes to take a breath in the outside world, it will be enough for you to see every plant and tree in the entire Mysterious Wilderness Heaven.”
After hearing this, Xu Taiping finally felt relieved and nodded and said:
“Thank you, Fairy, for the reminder.”
The woman shook her head and said:
“Just call me Zhong Ling, little Daoist. All my old friends in the past addressed me like this.”
Xu Taiping nodded and then calmed his mind and began to sense the big bell beside him with his mind.
“Dang! ……”
At this time, accompanied by another tolling of the bell, Zhong Ling suddenly reminded Xu Taiping:
“Little Taiping Daoist, you don’t need to think too much. I will naturally guide your mind to travel through every corner of this Mysterious Wilderness Heaven.”
Xu Taiping immediately closed his eyes and nodded, saying:
“Then I’ll have to trouble Fairy Zhongling!”
Almost the moment his voice fell, accompanied by a strange breaking sound of “boom”, Xu Taiping felt that in his mind, a vast world suddenly appeared.
Just by thinking about it, he could appear in any corner of this world.
At this time, Zhongling’s voice sounded again in Xu Taiping’s mind——
“Little Taiping Daoist, when your cultivation base breaks through to the half-immortal realm, when you look at the world, it will also be like this today, just the size of a chessboard in front of you.”
Although Zhongling said this in a normal tone, after Xu Taiping heard it, his heart was like a stormy sea.
He only felt that he seemed to have touched the scenery that he had never even thought of before.
However, Xu Taiping quickly collected his mind and instead asked Zhongling:
“Fairy Zhongling, can you take me to see every mountain in this Mysterious Wilderness Heaven?”
In his opinion, this Buddha statue is still best placed on the mountain.
Zhongling immediately replied:
“Naturally!”
Immediately, Zhongling’s figure appeared beside Xu Taiping, and then she grabbed one of his hands and said in her somewhat childish voice, extremely heroically:
“I will now take you, Little Taiping Daoist, to see every mountain peak in my Mysterious Wilderness Heaven!”
The moment the voice fell, Xu Taiping was pulled by Zhong Ling and flew over a mountain peak within the territory of Xuanyuan Heaven.
After seeing hundreds of mountain peaks in one breath, Xu Taiping was very surprised in his heart and transmitted his voice to Lian Tong, saying:
This method of magic is really magical. Clearly, only a moment has passed, but I have indeed, at the same moment completed the tour of these hundreds of mountain peaks at the same time.”
Lian Tong, who was refining the divine molt of the Yin God Kun, was very disapproving and said:
When your cultivation level is a little higher, not to mention hundreds of mountain peaks at the same time even the five directions of heaven and earth at the same time is not a difficult thing.
Xu Taiping’s heart froze, and he secretly said:
“No wonder the master would describe this plan as playing chess on a chessboard.”
And just as he was thinking like this, his divine soul traveled across hundreds of mountain peaks again.
At the same time, Zhong Ling’s voice rang out in his mind again:
“Little Taiping Taoist, among these five or six hundred mountain peaks, is there any that catches your eye?”
Xu Taiping thought about it seriously, and then shook his head and said:
Although these five or six hundred mountains all have extraordinary weather, if we talk about those that catch my eye it seems… there really aren’t any.”
It’s not that Xu Taiping is picky.
It’s just that these five or six hundred mountains really don’t make him feel predestined.
Although even if this Buddha statue is casually placed in a deep mountain, it can also attract Buddhist monks from all over the world to come and pay homage, but before seeing all the peaks in the Xuanyuan Sky, Xu Taiping still wants to choose carefully.
Zhong Ling heard this and said very straightforwardly:
“Since none of them are to your liking, then let’s look again and choose again!”
As she spoke, she took Xu Taiping and visited all the peaks in the Xuanyuan Sky that were not occupied by Jiuyuan in one go.
But like the previous five or six hundred peaks, there was still none that was to Xu Taiping’s liking.
After a little hesitation, Xu Taiping suddenly proposed to Zhong Ling:
“Fairy Zhong Ling, how about giving me some time to choose among these few thousand peaks that we have just visited?”
Zhong Ling, however, flatly refused and said:
“The Buddhist sect emphasizes the word fate the most. Since there is none that is to your liking, then we will continue to look!”
When she said this, she suddenly frowned and said:
“However, we are now on the border where Jiuyuan and the various cities of Xuanyuan are confronting each other. If we continue to move forward, I’m afraid we will enter the area occupied by Jiuyuan.”
“A Buddha statue with the inheritance of Buddhist fate is naturally not afraid of those Jiuyuan demons, but it will be very dangerous for the Buddhist monks who come to pay homage to step into the territory of Jiuyuan.”
Xu Taiping nodded and said:
“That’s true. I’ll think about it again.”
Just as Xu Taiping was about to decide whether to randomly select a mountain peak within the ruling area of the Mysterious Desolation zhucheng or enter the Jiuyuan territory to continue the selection, he who was casually looking westward, suddenly saw a short mountain peak no more than a hundred feet high in the border area between the Jiuyuan and the human race.
And the reason why this unremarkable short mountain peak caught Xu Taiping’s attention was not the mountain peak itself, but the two teenagers, a boy and a girl, who were climbing up the narrow mountain path with a hemp rope.
The two small figures were swaying back and forth on the hemp rope, looking as if they might fall off the cliff at any time.
Xu Taiping took a look at the girl and the boy, and then looked at the top of the mountain.
When he saw that there was a dilapidated temple hidden in the dense forest on the top of the mountain, he murmured in surprise:
Are they going to that dilapidated temple?
