Chapter 42 Blade-like Moonligh (2/2)

”No,” Ye Liuyun answered slowly.

He could not predict Shen Lain's knife, similarly, Shen Lian too could not predict his sword.

Jian Shisi's gaze fell on the two, the frantic enthusiasm was unhidden.

No one else present understood better than he did about the delicacy between the two.

Shen Lian did not pull out his sword for a long time, it was because his psyche had not reached a critical point that could be a good opportunity to use it.

This chance could possibly turn up at any moment, or it would not present itself forever.

To strike or not was all within Shen Lian's intention, but once he struck, the outcome was nothing Shen Lian could control.

Therefore, Shen Lian needed a very good opportunity.

As the fly cutter was not a hidden weapon, it was also a sustenance of his vitality spirit.

If it did not hit its target after striking, there was definitely not a second chance.

”You should know that it's undeniable that you will lose because I have captured your weak point,” Shen Lian said indifferently.

The words struck Jian Shisi like lightning though, he suddenly thought of Ye Liuyun's weak point.

Ye Liuyun's weakness was that he was overconfident. He was confident that he could dodge Shen Lian's fly cutter, he was confident that the Sleeve Sword could take care of Shen Lian.

However, there was one matter that he did not consider, which was whether Shen Lian really relied solely on the fly cutter.

Shen Lian flew off the ground, there were lanterns hanging on the flagpole in front of the entrance of the inn.

Shen Lian was on top of a lantern, the moon was very close to him.

There was one Shen Lian in the sky, there was also another Shen Lian on the ground.

Shen Lian's spirit had left his physical body and was now in the air, it was also the end of the road. There was the mention ”to occupy a commanding position” in the Art of War, Shen Lain had gotten a hold of the terrain.

Even Ye Liuyun could not have expected Shen Lian to cultivate until the point of astral projection, his Governor and Conception vessels did not even connect.

The difficulty of astral projection was ten times harder than connecting the Governor and Conception vessels.

Based on Shen Lian's age, to be able to develop his inner Qi to this level was considered shocking, let alone the other matters.

...

At the south side of the Capital City, there was a run-down Taoist temple.

Ling Chongxiao stayed inside the temple, and now he was with Shen Lian under the same bright moon.

He was still bald, he was a true Daoist priest and a fake monk.

The man in front of him was a short-haired man, but he was a real monk.

”You must be too bored Ku Hui, to have come look for me for a duel,” Ling Chongxiao yawned with an exhausted expression on his face.

”I just thought of an incredible move for the palm method, I cannot contain my excitement, thus I purposely came to try it out with Shizhu Ling.”

Ling Chongxiao glanced at Ku Hui from the side of his eyes, and lazily replied, ”Don't think that just because you already know the Mystical Art of the Vajra Body Barrier, I cannot beat you to death.”

”It will be great if Shizhu Ling could beat me to death, who knows, I may be able to catch up with the destiny of the immortal during the next reincarnation, and I would not need to be some monk anymore,” Ku Hui cheerfully said.

”Buddhism is a wide and easy pathway, everyone can do this cultivation, it's no better than the Celestialism, what is there to be commended?” Ling Chongxiao scorned.

”Then why don't the Shizhu, you enter the pathway of Buddhism?”

”I am a willful person, is that any of your business,” Ling Chongxiao scolded, even though verbally he expresses disdain for Celestialism, his biggest wish was to be formally acknowledged into a branch of Superlunary Immortal. Unfortunately, even if he found it, he did not have any good luck, they will not bother with him. Even though through the pathway of Buddhism anyone could achieve to become Buddha, but there was hardly anyone who could truly become Buddha. Besides the matter of becoming a Buddha immediately or not, even those who became Arhat as a result of the Buddha way was a rare occurrence.

However within Celestialism, even though there were fewer people, but the amount of those who had obtained achievements were higher than those who were on the pathway of Buddhism.

In the end, even though the pathway of Buddhism did not require any texts and can be truly realized by the heart, but the required qualifications were actually even more demanding compared to joining the Superlunary Immortal.

Without the root of wisdom, having a hollow root was also impossible to become Buddha.
