Chapter 795 - Acquiring The Sarira (1/2)

As the ghost baby watched the entire event, for the first time, it felt sorry for its master.

In spite of its master’s strenuous effort, she failed to appreciate it and continued to long for another person.

The thunder rumbled once again.

This was the third quake.

Stones were rolling down together with the ancient tombs.

Under such circ.u.mstances, even the exorcists found it difficult to secure their footings.

However, they had another challenge waiting for them.

Standing at the checkpoint was a two-faced man.

On the front, it was the face of Gautama Buddha.

Meanwhile, the face of Bodhisattva was found at the back.

The face of Gautama Buddha carried compa.s.sion for all beings.

On the contrary, the brows of Bodhisattva were gently furrowed.

The two-faced man was meditating with a string of prayer beads in his hand. Despite the violent quake at the graveyard, he remained still unyielding.

Right behind him, the Sariras were radiating a spiritual glow.

It was not one but three Sariras!

Baili Jia Jue narrowed his golden eyes as he looked at the two-faced man. He found this man unusually familiar.

“What’s happening? How are there three Sariras?” Zhuge Yun was puzzled.

Wobbling, Old Li murmured, “We must choose the right one. The real Sarira will destroy itself if we choose the wrong option. The myth is true. Before Master Xiu Mo’s pa.s.sing, he a.s.signed Gautama Buddha’s test to humans. He wanted humans to learn to make choices. Meanwhile, his soul has turned into the watcher of the Sarira. Before he left the world, he once predicted that there would be countless people who want to obtain his Sarira, but he would only wait for the destined one with Dharma fate.”

“In short, we have to choose one among the three Sariras.” Helian Wei Wei approached the main coffin and studied the Sarira closely before she asked succinctly, “There’s no hint?”

The two-faced man chuckled. “Of course there is. You can ask me three questions in order to determine the real Sarira. However, there’s something you need to know. I have two faces, where one is telling the truth and another is telling lies. Therefore, the hints may or may not be right. You need to distinguish it yourself. There’ll be no second chance if you make a wrong guess as the Sarira will destroy itself. So, do you want to take a guess?”

“If the hints aren’t necessarily correct, how can we make our guess based on the hints?” Zhuge Yun finally anch.o.r.ed himself. At this moment, he noticed the changes in the air.

The Mahogany Sword at the exorcists’ back clanged, alarming them about the arrival of the demons.

Zhuge Yun turned to look at Helian Wei Wei. “Brother Wei, we must leave the ancient tomb now. They have cast the Resurrection Incantation and the Sarira is almost useless now. We’ll soon be surrounded by demons and the evil aura will gush out of the graveyard. You will die here as you aren’t protected by spiritual aura…”

“I have to get the Sarira,” Helian Wei Wei interrupted Zhuge Yun. She sounded determined and her intention was clear. “You can leave with the rest of the exorcists. Remember to bring Old Li with you. I’ll meet you all after I acquire the Sarira.”

Zhuge Yun hesitated. “But…”

“Madam Zhuge is still waiting for you at the Exorcist City.” Helian Wei Wei’s eyes were sparkling. “Don’t forget what Old Li said just now. The Exorcist City will be in trouble once the royal tomb falls. Besides, Ni Feng and the others will definitely return to the Exorcist City. You can protect Madam Zhuge if you go back now.”

Zhuge Yun looked at Helian Wei Wei. He knew he would not be able to convince her. He gritted his teeth and said, “We’ll wait for you and try to suppress the evil aura. 15 minutes. If you still haven’t gotten the Sarira after 15 minutes, we will return to the Exorcist City by ourselves.”

“Alright.” After all, Helian Wei Wei needed someone with spiritual aura to suppress the invasion of the evil aura. Although His Highness was omnipotent, he did not have spiritual aura.

It would be best if the exorcists could buy some time for her. Helian Wei Wei knew that her babies could not be tainted by the evil aura at all. Otherwise, they would be completely demonized.

She would never let that happen!
