    Chapter 831: Assisting Attack

    In the year 7830 of the Blue Star Xia calendar, in Huaxia

    Liang Long displayed some debates from the internet in his mind, intentionally letting the Buddha Master watch, making the Buddha Master feel confused.

    "I always thought your Buddhist debates were unbeatable, but it seems like they are not that great. Look at these Buddha Seeds you passed down; do they show any of your strength, or have they been completely defeated?"

    "Amitabha"

    "If the Buddhist theories do not update or change, hehehe…"

    Liang Long openly showed his disdain for Buddhist theories. In recent years, these theories have been very popular; almost everyone in Blue Star has read them, but the Buddhist theories have been defeated by Blue Star’s theories and completely overcome.

    Blue Star’s theories are not religious; they are based on material reality. A cultivator cannot leave behind material things without reaching a high level. After all, material decides consciousness. As an ordinary person, no matter how much you study the Buddhist scriptures, can you sustain yourself?

    Therefore, standing on material reality, Blue Star’s theories are basically unbeatable. No matter how eloquent you are, can you survive without food?

    "Blue Star is truly special."

    "Yes, the development of technology is actually quite surprising. Blue Star should be a traditional world of cultivation, so you are also curious why Blue Star is like this, right?"

    "The biggest variable is Lin Jiang."

    "Haha, I knew you had already figured it out."

    Liang Long smiled and said that actually the higher-ups of Blue Star, the smarter ones, already know that the development of Blue Star is influenced by Lin Jiang. At key moments in history, it was pushed by a mysterious power, and that mysterious power is Lin Jiang.

    Not to mention other things, just the phase of spiritual energy recovery. If cultivators truly survived from the age of cultivation, they should suppress ordinary people’s technology and restore the traditional cultivation world. After all, ordinary people’s technology threatens cultivators, and just because some things are not said, it doesn’t mean they don’t know.

    "Since you say that, don’t you fear that I will truly descend?"

    "Let’s not talk about whether you can actually do that. Even if you could, what would happen? The Buddhist order and cultivators are not so different; the Buddhist order wouldn’t just wipe out everyone on Blue Star, right?"

    "My Buddha is compassionate and does not create slaughter out of thin air."

    "Hehe"

    Liang Long just gave a cold smile and pretended, thinking you are good people in the Buddhist world. It seems that the billions of people who died on Blue Star were not killed by you.

    "Benefactor…"

    The Buddha Master spoke again, saying that Liang Long was a person of great insight, but he did not give up on guiding him. He even felt that saving thousands of people on Blue Star was not as important as saving one Liang Long.

    However, saving Liang Long could not be done with ordinary methods; it must be unique and gentle, carried out over many years, and he believed it could be done.

    Blue Star, high above

    Lin Jiang and Cao Ying appeared at the same time, and at that moment, Lin Jiang heard a voice whispering in his ear, "Lin Jiang, this is it, attack!"

    As soon as the words were spoken, Lin Jiang’s Sagittarius Bow had already launched. A beam of light shot down, the clouds parted, and a transparent space appeared, revealing a great Buddha within.

    "Sure enough, the source of Buddha Seed is here."

    "Little Ying, you don’t have to bother."

    Cao Ying was about to act when Lin Jiang stopped her and quickly informed the Space Battleship. Three Space Battleships soon aimed at the large Buddha and fired their particle cannons.

    "Boom, boom, boom."

    Under the three rounds of attack, the space crack shattered, and the large Buddha began to counterattack. However, it only had a few rounds of energy. After a few rounds, the large Buddha burst apart, scattering countless beams of light.

    These beams of light disappeared, and Lin Jiang guessed they were taken away by Xia Qingshan.

    "These Buddha statues are ordinary clay sculptures and do not have anything special."

    Cao Ying picked up a piece of the Buddha statue and said, "They aren’t even resources for cultivating."

    "The power of the Buddha statue comes from the secret methods of the Buddha and the support of mental strength. Its own value doesn’t matter. Alright, let’s go back."

    "Is he really gone?"

    "What else can we do?"

    Lin Jiang shook his head; solving this statue problem was nearly done, after all, they couldn’t find where the Buddhist cultivator was.

    Back in Haigang City, Xia Qingshan appeared quickly; his power had increased many times compared to before. The many battles had made Xia Qingshan’s strength grow very fast.

    "Is there anything else you want to say?"

    "I have absorbed all the Tao’s essence. My strength now is ten times greater than it was hundreds of years ago."

    "That is still useless."

    "You…"

    Xia Qingshan suddenly felt an urge to spit blood; can you at least show him some respect? He is, after all, the one who controls this realm.

    "Isn’t it true that a statue of Buddha has been hidden in Blue Star for ten years, and you only just noticed? What could that be but useless?"

    "I won’t argue with you; you don’t understand anything."

    "Fine, I don’t understand, so let’s talk about something I do understand."

    "The path of a Buddhist cultivator might be more accurate than our cultivation system; I want to change my practice."

    "At your level, you can change your cultivation method?"

    "It’s not about changing cultivation methods, but adopting the advancement path of the Buddha Master. I want to absorb mental power to strengthen my abilities."

    "Hehe, you told me before that the practices of the Buddhist sect have traps. Don’t end up becoming a Buddhist cultivator yourself; that would be quite a mess."

    "I know, so I am very hesitant."

    Xia Qingshan said that if it weren’t for his concern about this hidden danger, he would have changed his practice a long time ago. It is precisely because of this worry that he is feeling uncertain now.

    "If it were me, I wouldn’t do that."

    "Why?"

    "It’s simple. If you imitate others, you can never surpass them. I don’t know how long Buddha Master lived, but if you count from when spiritual energy recovery began, you are just over a thousand years old. While others have traveled far, you have only gone so far. When will you catch up? The cultivation system is not so bad, so why not continue on your path?"

    "What you said makes sense."

    Xia Qingshan nodded. He also remembered what Lin Jiang had said. Perhaps in another world, there are beings that can match Buddha Master’s strength. The cultivation system is not that bad.

    "Can you teach me the Stargate Secret Technique?"

    "How do you know?"

    "Stop it. Right now, Blue Star is just in a passive state of being attacked. If you don’t want Blue Star to be destroyed, strengthen our power. We are like grasshoppers on the same rope."

    "I can teach you the Stargate Secret Technique, but after that, the people around you cannot act out of line. Otherwise, I will erase them."

    "Are you really so afraid that I will run away? You must truly love deeply."

    "Don’t talk about that. If we do this, it will be good for you, good for me, and good for everyone."

    "Okay."

    Lin Jiang agreed without hesitation. He wouldn’t run away because he wasn’t planning to, anyway. After all, in this situation, if he ran, he would be a wandering star, so what was the point of running?

    Xia Qingshan nodded and then pointed a finger at Lin Jiang’s forehead, sending a surge of information into Lin Jiang’s mind.

    "Lin Jiang, let’s make a gentleman’s agreement. You won’t betray me, and I will never let you down. In the great battle ahead, you can keep your family out of it. I promise they will live for more than one hundred thousand years."

    "I trust you. Do you trust me?"

    "I trust you, but you need to make me trust you, not do anything sneaky. This is a win-win situation. What do you think?"

    "Alright, I understand. I need to contemplate. You can disappear now."

    Lin Jiang waved his hand, impressed by the old man; he even knew some of Lin Jiang’s small actions. It seemed he could not continue like this and needed to change his approach.

    Xia Qingshan quickly disappeared, and Lin Jiang began to understand. The Stargate Secret Technique that Xia Qingshan gave him was modified, coming from Buddhism, but it could not be followed just like that, as Lin Jiang did not know the secret techniques of Buddhism. It was meant for the cultivator system.

    The Stargate Secret Technique involved using the power of rules, which was very complicated. Lin Jiang could not understand it right away and needed more time.

    So far, Xia Qingshan had taught him two ways to use the power of rules: one was how to erase the Buddhist cultivator mark, and the other was this Stargate Secret Technique.

    It was like opening a corner of a new world for Lin Jiang, allowing him to glimpse the world of rule power. At the same time, it made Lin Jiang feel that Blue Star’s Immortal Language cultivation was lagging behind.

    To use a common saying, Blue Star’s Immortal Language cultivation might be like a wealthy small town, while Buddhism could be compared to the level of some county cities. On the other hand, the Ling Star, where true Buddhas gathered, might be like a first-tier big city. If Ling Star were to attack Blue Star, then Blue Star would have no way to fight back.

    "The power of rules is not exclusive to immortals. If Transmigration Stage can practice it, then so can Tao Achieving, or even understand it on their own."

    Lin Jiang read through the Stargate Secret Technique and felt that even someone at Tao Achieving could practice it, as long as someone could guide them.
