Chapter 1118: Nihility Temple (2/2)

She looked at him and eventually nodded her head: “Be careful. If it looks bad, retreat right away.”

Li Qiye smiled and went up the mountain. Little Autumn also shouted while watching: “Young n.o.ble, be careful, never listen to that broken pot!”

Even though Little Autumn normally loved to brag and was a bit unreliable, it was more serious than anyone else when it came to big events. Plus, it knew what Li Qiye was about to face, so it became worried for him too.

Li Qiye didn’t look back or say anything. He slowly climbed up the mountain. There was no need for him to turn around or say anything, the others just needed to wait for his triumphant return.

Little Autumn looked at the girls after Li Qiye entered the temple and said: “We should move back a little bit, it is about to begin.”

The girls followed the worm to a safe distance before stopping. At this moment, everyone was watching the temple, full of worries. Little Autumn was the same; it kept pacing back and forth.

Its goal was different from Li Qiye’s. Li Qiye came here for the s.p.a.ce Scripture while it was only here to vent its anger. Back then, its master died in the Nihility Temple, which was why it was swearing right outside of it. Even though it knew that this had no effect on the temple, it did so to feel better.

Li Qiye entered the temple. There was no majestic gold and jade or carvings of dragons and phoenixes. The entire temple could be easily described by the word “ancient.”

One monk with his palms placed together came to lead the way for Li Qiye. His hair and eyebrows were all white while he himself had a friendly demeanor. Who would ever be able to imagine that such a monk used to be the Buddhist Lord of the Buddhist Kingdom with a matchless dharma?

The monk didn’t ask Li Qiye anything. Just like Li Qiye said before, nothing could escape their eyes. Even without asking, they knew what he was here to do and what he wanted.

Li Qiye stood quietly in the main hall and looked around. There was nothing else here, not even a Buddhist statue. Nevertheless, he kept on gazing as if something extremely beautiful was attracting his eyes.

He stood there for a long time while the old monk waited as well with the same pose. He didn’t bother Li Qiye by saying anything.

After a while, Li Qiye stopped looking and asked the old monk: “When will Di s.h.i.+ come out with his true body?”

“Amitabha.” The monk didn’t have an oppressive Buddhist affinity or its power of conversion. He was extremely ordinary as he responded: “Buddha will come into this world one day.”

These two had no need to show off their power. They looked incredibly normal because at their level the dharma was virtually the same and neither could convert the other. Forcefully doing so would only result in losing face — a waste of time.

Li Qiye laughed and spoke: “His coming will be the start of the great disaster.”

“Amitabha. Break and rebuild. Without breaking, there can be no rebuilding. The new generation requires a new order as well as a new master.” The monk replied without haste.

Li Qiye only smiled and let this go: “I hope for such a day as well. I’m not a pessimistic person, but I am not too optimistic about you guys.”

“Amitabha.” The old monk let out one last chant with nothing more to say.

Li Qiye went into the inner hall with the monk still leading the way. They met other old monks with the same plainness. Of course, they were once Buddhist Lords as well with a boundless dharma capable of converting G.o.dkings.

But now, all of these terrifying existences were willing to stay here as ordinary monks. There was an unfathomable mystery that outsiders couldn’t imagine or know about.

Of course, only truly great people could be welcomed into the temple by another monk. Even G.o.dkings wouldn’t receive such a reception so easily.
