Chapter 1571: Withered Heart and Extinction Zen

Chapter 1571: Withered Heart and Extinction Zen

The devil clouds were spinning wildly, the wind was howling, and eighty-one devil soul flags were flashing a thick black light one after another.

The next moment, the demonic clouds gathered together like a whirlwind and transformed into a towering demon god. It let out a silent roar, but as its mouth opened wide, a violent hurricane rushed out and swept towards the golden body in the distance.

At the same time, the demon's fists flashed like a dream, and the next moment, eighteen fist shadows as big as small mountains flew out, heading right towards the eighteen hundred-foot golden bodies.

Seeing this, the eighteen Vairocana Buddhas and Vairocana Bodhisattvas did not dare to delay and stretched out their hands. Amidst the golden light, a golden light curtain over a hundred feet high condensed in front of them, blocking themselves.

"Boom~~"

Eighteen fists landed heavily on the light curtain, and the void trembled continuously. Then the golden and black light extended in all directions, and everything was turned into powder wherever it passed. Even the huge rocks were turned into powder by the aftermath.

This scene made all the remaining monks in Baifo City look horrified and frightened. Many monks had already started heading towards the city gate, trying to escape from this dangerous place.

"Boss, should we hide from the attack for a while? It will be very bad if we are discovered by that demon." Xiao Hei felt a little guilty at this moment. The two sides in the battle, no matter they were the Mahavairocana Buddha and Mahavairocana Bodhisattva, or even the peerless demon above their heads, were not people that he and his boss could afford to provoke.

"If we leave now, we will be more likely to be discovered. Let's wait and see. If it doesn't work, we can sink into the ground. As long as we go a thousand feet deep, I think it will be impossible for them to find our traces."

Xiao Hei's eyes lit up: "Boss is really amazing. He actually thought of sinking underground. The power of a cultivator's spiritual consciousness can only sink ten thousand feet underground at most. As long as we sink ten thousand feet underground, the demon will not be able to find us even if he has extraordinary magical powers."

Whether in the spiritual world or the mortal world, the earth is a natural barrier. Even if a cultivator can cultivate to the highest level that a world can bear, at most he can radiate to ten thousand feet underground. Any deeper cannot be detected. Therefore, the ground ten thousand feet below is also called the interface barrier. Unless you go down to investigate in person, you will not be able to detect the enemy's trace with the power of spiritual consciousness alone.

This is also the source of Xiao Lin's confidence. Originally, for a cultivator, it was a very difficult thing to enter the ground thousands of feet underground, but he and Xiao Hei were both proficient in the magical power of space. With the magical power of space and the technique of earth escape, they could sink thousands of feet underground.

"Woooooo~~"

Saint Wu Lin stretched out his right hand, and the eighty-one Demon Soul Banners suddenly shrank and turned into black rays of light that shot towards his hand. In the blink of an eye, they turned into a small flag that was as black as ink and about a foot long.

"Hehehe, the Eighteen Golden Buddha Formation, let you have a taste of my Eighteen Demon Gods." He waved a small ink-white flag in his right hand, and waved it continuously. The moment he waved, the small flag began to grow larger, and grew to a size of ten feet. Every time he waved it, a demon shadow shot out, and then turned into a demon god a hundred feet in size, shooting towards a golden body.

In the blink of an eye, the Black Scale Saint waved his sword eighteen times and transformed into eighteen hundred-foot-tall demon gods. These eighteen demon gods were all covered in black scales and shot towards a golden Buddha or Bodhisattva.

Soon, a fierce battle broke out between the demon god and the eighteen golden bodies of Mahavairocana Buddha and Mahavairocana Bodhisattva.

Saint Ancestor Wu Lin stood on the devil cloud above the void, with a grim face and a sneer on his lips, watching the battle in the distance.

Above the devil cloud, figures in black robes appeared one after another, eighty in number. They were the elders of the Demon Sect who originally controlled the eighty-one Demon Soul Banners. They were all in the late stage of tribulation or above.

Xiao Lin, who was watching the battle, suddenly had an idea.

At present, in the White Buddha Temple, the three Great Sun Bodhisattvas have fallen, and the three Great Sun Buddhas have also come out of the withered Zen, and are engaged in a great battle with the Holy Ancestor Wu Lin, and it seems that the battle will not be over in a short time.

In other words, the defenses of the White Buddha Temple must be weak at this moment. If I take the opportunity to enter it, I may be able to obtain the Vajra Meditation technique.

Vajra Meditation is one of the supreme mental methods of Buddhism. If it is practiced to the extreme, it can even make one immune to external invasion and unaffected by cause and effect. As one of the hundred great temples, Baifo Temple has at least the first two levels of mental methods. For Xiao Lin, it is enough in the short term.

Xiao Lin told Xiao Hei about his idea, and Xiao Hei naturally had no objection. He rolled up a black light and covered Xiao Lin. The man and the beast sank silently into the ground.

White Buddha Temple.

The situation was in chaos at the moment. The three Great Sun Buddhas were using their golden bodies, which they had cultivated for tens of thousands of years, to fight the devil. The aftermath of this battle had made the White Buddha Temple in a state of disarray. Various formations to protect the temple were deployed one after another. However, the aftermath of the peak battle between the eighteen Great Sun Buddhas and Great Sun Bodhisattvas and the Holy Ancestor Wu Lin could not be blocked by these formations.

As soon as the aftermath hit, the formation was broken, and monks of all sizes were immediately killed and injured. However, the subsequent formation was immediately set up. After all, setting up a large formation to resist could at least protect the temple and the many disciples in the temple. If there was no protection of the large formation, the entire White Buddha Temple would be razed to the ground in an instant.

For the White Buddha Temple, this is definitely the biggest catastrophe it has faced since its establishment.

At this moment, all the disciples of Baifo Temple had sad expressions on their faces and were in a hurry. Some were preparing to set up a defensive formation or were on their way to set up a formation. Those disciples with low cultivation were responsible for carrying spiritual stones and magic tools, and those disciples with basically no cultivation were responsible for treating the wounded or dealing with the bodies.

Unknowingly, in an inconspicuous corner of the White Buddha Temple, two shadows appeared silently. After the two shadows appeared, they only flashed for a moment and then disappeared into the corner.

The Sutra Library of Baifo Temple is located in an ancient cave in the back mountain. In front of the cave, there is a huge rock extending out, on top of which are two old monks sitting cross-legged.

The two old monks also had white hair and beards, and their ages could not be identified, but the Buddhist aura emanating from them revealed their realm without a doubt: they were the fourth level of Buddhahood.

Hundreds of feet away, there were two figures standing still against the cliff.

The two figures were Xiao Lin and Xiao Hei, and they were communicating through their spiritual consciousness.

"Boss, these two monks are not easy to deal with. If we act rashly, I'm afraid we will attract a group of monks, and it will be difficult to escape."

Xiao Lin also did not expect that the White Buddha Temple was under attack by the demons, but the two guardian monks of the Sutra Library still did not leave, as if the war outside had nothing to do with them.

The rock walls surrounding the Sutra Library have been blessed by the golden light of Buddhism. Even if the two men are proficient in spatial magical powers, they cannot penetrate into them. In other words, except for the main entrance of the cave, they cannot enter the Sutra Library.

Xiao Lin and Xiao Hei were not in a hurry either. They hid their bodies and waited quietly.

At this moment, eighteen demon gods and eighteen golden bodies were fighting outside. The aftermath of the battle was surging and spreading, continuously impacting the surrounding area within tens of thousands of miles. The entire White Buddha Temple began to shake.

More and more disciples died in the White Buddha Temple. After a few hours, they began to run out of steam, and loopholes began to appear in the defense of the entire White Buddha Temple.

As waves of remaining Buddhist and demonic forces swept through, the entire White Buddha Temple began to face the risk of collapse.

"Buzz~~"

At this critical moment, a thick layer of golden light slowly rose above the White Buddha Temple. The golden light slowly bloomed like a lotus, and then gathered to form a huge golden light shield.

Xiao Lin immediately noticed that the golden light shield was supported by a defensive formation jointly arranged by dozens of fourth-level Buddhas. Obviously, this was the last strength of the White Buddha Temple. Once this last trump card could not withstand the impact of the aftermath, the White Buddha Temple would be destroyed and lost in the dust of history.

"what?"

Suddenly, a hint of joy appeared on Xiao Lin's face. It turned out that the two old monks who were guarding the Sutra Library had also disappeared. It was obvious that they had gone to set up a defensive formation.

At this moment when the White Buddha Temple is facing life and death, they naturally cannot care about these things. If they cannot withstand the impact from outside, the entire White Buddha Temple will fall apart, and the Sutra Library will naturally not be spared.

Xiao Lin seized the opportunity and transformed himself and Xiao Hei into a beam of black light. In a flash, they shot into the entrance of the Sutra Library.

As soon as he entered the entrance of the Sutra Library and walked through a corridor several meters long, Xiao Lin saw a layer of Buddha's light in front of him. The Buddha's light covered the entire entrance of the cave. It was obviously a solid Buddhist restriction.

Xiao Lin glanced at Xiao Hei beside him. Xiao Hei immediately understood what he meant, came to the Buddha's light, sniffed, then showed a confident expression, opened his mouth wide, and bit the golden light hard. A large piece of the golden light was immediately bitten off, but after being bitten off, the golden light curtain began to slowly repair and try to heal. How could Xiao Hei give it a chance? He opened his mouth and spurted out a ball of black light. This ball of black light shot onto the golden light curtain, and the golden light curtain immediately melted away at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Xiao Lin and Xiao Hei flashed and passed through. After they passed through, it took only a few breaths for the golden light curtain to close again.

"This golden light curtain is also an extremely mysterious defensive ban. It seems to be connected to the spiritual vein under the Golden Buddha Temple. If you want to rely on brute force, I'm afraid even if you destroy the entire mountain, you may not be able to break the ban." Xiao Hei nodded and spoke.

"The Buddhist sect is a practice that has been passed down since ancient times. It does have a profound foundation, and its magical skills do have their merits. However, they spread faith, collect the faith of ordinary mortals, and thus harvest the soul power of mortals. This practice is inherently harmful to the harmony of heaven. Yet, they wear a cloak of compassion and pretend to be the guardians of heaven, which is really hypocritical." When Xiao Lin was in the mortal world, he destroyed the Buddhist sect for this reason.

Moreover, Buddhist monks also keep Buddhist protectors in captivity, who are all monks who follow other paths of cultivation and are controlled by them through Buddhist magical powers.

After walking for a few dozen feet and going deeper into the mountain, Xiao Lin indeed saw rows of stone bookshelves filled with various scriptures.

Xiao Lin showed a look of delight, took a few quick steps, came to a row of bookshelves, and began to search carefully.

Xiao Lin came here to learn the practice method of Vajra Meditation. Once the war outside was over, the two white-haired monks would definitely return, and he would be caught red-handed then. So he had to hurry to find the practice texts of Vajra Meditation and then leave this place.

Xiao Hei was also ordered by Xiao Lin to go to another bookshelf to look for it.

Half an hour later, Xiao Lin suddenly stopped in front of an ordinary bookshelf. On the bookshelf was a wooden box with a note happily written on it: [The Method of Meditation].

Xiao Lin showed a look of joy and hurriedly opened the wooden box. Sure enough, there was an ancient book with a yellowed cover inside.

Xiao Lin picked up the ancient book, glanced through it, and then put it into his star ring with joy on his face.

"Xiao Hei, let's go." Xiao Lin achieved his goal and immediately called Xiao Hei to leave.

But at this moment, Xiao Hei's voice came from his sea of ​​consciousness: "Boss, come and take a look, what is this?"

Xiao Lin was also slightly stunned when he heard this. Xiao Hei always listened to him. Since it asked him to go over and check it out, it must be something it thought was very important.

Xiao Lin flashed in front of Xiao Hei, who was standing on the highest bookshelf. This was the highest point in the entire Sutra Library, about 20 to 30 feet high. Usually, few people came to clean it, so it was covered with dust.

Xiao Hei was staring at a jade box in front of him.

There was an exquisite Buddha carved on the jade box, which looked lifelike. At this moment, the jade box had been opened, revealing a Buddhist book inside.

On the yellowed cover were a few small characters in ancient seal script: [Withered Heart, Quiet Zen].

Seeing these words, Xiao Lin was also slightly stunned. There are innumerable secret methods of Buddhism, and the meditation methods among them are not only the Vajra Meditation. Chu Wu practiced the immortal martial arts method he created in the past, and finally broke through the super-first-grade realm and became possessed. This made him think of the Buddhist Vajra Meditation method at the last moment. He believed that only with the help of this method could he prevent the invasion of extraterritorial demons and avoid becoming possessed, thus completing the integration of the sea of ​​blood and the heart.

But after seeing this [Withered Heart and Silent Extinction Zen], Xiao Lin suddenly had an idea, that is, Chu Wu might not know other meditation methods in Buddhism, and there might be methods that are more advanced than Vajra Meditation.

The book "Withered Heart and Netherworld Zen" in front of him was obviously also a method of meditation of the Buddhist sect. However, Xiao Lin had no idea which one was better when compared with the Vajra Meditation.

But to him, there is no difference. He just takes it back and thinks about it carefully.

Thinking of this, Xiao Lin put the book [Withered Heart and Silent Zen] into the Star Ring without any hesitation. However, Xiao Lin did not take the exquisite jade box away. He did not want to be hunted down by the powerful Buddhists as soon as he left.

After putting away the two scriptures, Xiao Lin immediately took Xiao Hei out of the Sutra Library, and then came to a remote corner of the White Buddha Temple and hid there.
