Chapter 501 Bubbles
The beads slid between the fingers one by one.
The steady sound of chanting is like a rushing river, gentle but firm, passing between the formations and flowing among the rocks.
Everyone is silent, only the sound of chanting sutras echoes.
“Gone.” Wen Guying said.
"This way," Jiang Bai pointed to the other side of the stone wall and said, "Go around that way and pass through a stone forest. There is a tunnel there that is connected to the underground palace." He asked Yao Shuang, "Where was Brother Jiang before?" I have made some arrangements to isolate the thing from exploration, right?"
Yao Shuang said: "Well, Senior Brother Jiang has taught me the method."
< br>"Let's go then." Jiang Bai said and led the way forward.
They moved quickly through the mountains and forests.
The chanting became louder and louder.
Li Chuan followed the rhythm of chanting and walked forward step by step. The ups and downs of the tone exert an influence on every plant and tree in this secret realm.
Li Chuan couldn't help but touch the Tianyin pot in his hand.
Until they walked out of the stone forest, their voices drifted away.
"Master Xuanyin from Mount Xumi once told me a secret of Buddhism." Yao Shuang said.
"Master Xuanyin? I heard that he hasn't come out for a long time." Wen Guying said.
Yao Shuang: "Well, it happened eight hundred years ago. When I was listening to Master Wu Kong chanting sutras, I suddenly remembered it."
"What did he say?" Wen Guying asked.
Yao Shuang said: "We accidentally talked about the catastrophe of gods and demons, so he said that the Buddhism that survived the catastrophe may not be limited to Mount Xumi. So I asked him why he said that, and he He told me that a thousand years ago, a Buddhist cultivator ascended, but that Buddhist cultivator did not come from Mount Sumeru. So he speculated that after the catastrophe, there were other Buddhist traditions passed down."
"Where is it? A Buddhist cultivator?" Wen Guying asked.
Yao Shuang said: "He said he didn't know."
"Do you think he is a descendant of the demon clan?" Wen Guying asked.
Yao Shuang said: "I listened to Master Wu Kong reciting sutras and felt the Taoist meaning contained in them. The person who wrote that sutra has most likely ascended."
"Then Is it possible for Master Wu Kong to become an immortal?" Li Chuan asked.
"Impossible." Yao Shuang said flatly.
"Not necessarily." Wen Guying said, "It is possible for a mortal to reach immortality in one step. Master Wu Kong can understand the usage of scriptures and even integrate them into the stick method, which proves that he is on this path. He is enlightened. Although his temperament is not suitable for Xuanmen, he cannot be killed with a stick."
"The great catastrophe has begun. It is difficult to explain everything based on normal conditions. What's more..." Wen Guying glanced in the direction of the formation, "He is better than many if he can still sit in the formation at this time. He is a member of Xuanmen."
"And...even if he cannot ascend, it is possible for the scriptures to continue to be passed down as long as he is here."
"Master Wu Kong will definitely be able to do it. ." Li Chuan said.
"Yes." Wen Guying did not refute him, and began to answer his previous doubts, "If we directly destroy the stone platform... that stone platform has lasted for 30,000 years and will remain immortal. It cannot be done by ordinary means. Destructive. Moreover, I am worried that if our methods are too drastic, we may awaken something."
"What?"
Wen Guying said: "For example, the energy contained in it, something like that."
"There seems to be no stone platform at Yanqing Mountain." Li Chuan's thoughts jumped elsewhere.
"No, but...it seems hard to say now." Wen Guying said: "The Heyuan Town Shitai was revealed because Prince Su used thousands of demons to fight with the soldiers of the Jiang Dynasty. Flesh and blood awakened it. "Li Chuan also thought of what he witnessed in Heyuan Town. He said: "The demon awakened the spire and many people died."
" So, let’s take a look at what the ferry is like before making other plans.” Wen Guying said.
While talking, they walked out of the stone forest and found the tunnel entrance that Jiang Bai had mentioned.
Yao Shuang stepped forward and cast a series of spells. He dug the black shovel at the entrance and heard a dull crashing sound. After that, the sealed entrance reopened. Appeared in front of Li Chuan and others.
Li Chuan was about to walk forward, but Yao Shuang waved her hand behind her. She put her palm against the edge of the entrance, as if she was feeling something. After a moment, she lowered her hand, took a step back and turned around and said, "I know How are you going to get through? Come here."
After hearing what she meant, Jiang Bai asked: "Aren't we leaving from here?"
Yao Shuang replied: "Well, I am. Dig directly to be more hidden.”
After seeing Li Chuan and Wen Guying standing over, Jiang Bai quickly leaned over without saying anything.
After that, Yao Shuang turned the black shovel in his hand, and the next moment, Li Chuan found that he was standing in Yao Shuang's shelter again. This time is different from the last time, everything is transparent.
Like a transparent bubble.
Li Chuan lowered his head and looked at his feet, and found that he seemed to be stepping on a thin layer of red light.
“Ouch…”
Li Chuan heard Jiang Bai's cry. When he looked up, he saw Wen Guying holding Jiang Bai to prevent him from falling.
So Li Chuan did not dare to move.
Wen Guying flicked his hand forward, and several futons appeared around them. He said, "Just sit on this."
After Li Chuan and Jiang Bai sat down, Wen Guying said: "Sister Yao made such an arrangement to make it easier for us to observe the surrounding situation."
"Oh, I see," Li Chuan looked around and asked, "Yao Where is senior sister? Why isn’t she here?”
Wen Guying pointed upward and said, "It's right above."
Li Chuan raised his head and saw Yao Shuang floating at the highest point of the bubble, with the black shovel surrounding her, constantly changing shapes.
Jiang Bai spoke with admiration and said: "This move is so powerful."
Wen Guying said: "You are the same after all..."
Jiang Bai had no hair on his face. He felt no shame and said, "I'm not. Mr. Wen, please look after me more and take care of me when you take care of Li Chuan."
"Okay, okay, okay." Wen Guying responded.
"Are we drilling down now?" Li Chuan asked, observing the surrounding environment.
"We are about to enter the underground palace." Yao Shuang's voice rang in their ears. She said: "There is a place ahead that there is no way around. It may be the dark place that Fellow Daoist Jiang mentioned. , I plan to dig in."
Wen Guying said: "Senior Sister Yao, please do your best."
"Okay." Yao Shuang said.
Li Chuan felt that the speed of Bubble was getting faster and it began to bump at the same time. He thought for a while and took out the butterfly spirit. When the full moon emerged from the belly of the butterfly spirit, he concentrated and entered a mysterious state, and then began to observe everything outside the transparent bubble.
He saw Bubble slowly sinking into the boundless darkness. There are some gray sticky shadows falling into the bubbles.
