Chapter 346 The Wind and Rain Would Follow (1/2)
If Shen Lian did not stop Fang Yanying, her momentum could help her get to the tenth level of the Shapeless Sword Incantation. However, if that happened, her foundation would be destabilized.
If she were to reach eight transformations of Huandan and above, she would have to spend up to a hundred years to build her foundation again.
For people who had yet to reach Huandan, how could they waste up to a hundred years?
Every other student in the Temple of Killings was dead, except for Fang Yanying. One had to admit that this girl had some fortune.
Shen Lian hoped that she would have a good ending with such fortune.
It began to drizzle. Shen Lian walked towards the rain, into the Temple of Killings.
When one had reached a certain level of cultivation, the relationship one had with the heaven and earth was no longer the same.
There was a saying, ”When the Dragon King is out on a tour, he will always be followed by the wind and rain.”
The truth was, it was not limited to the Dragon King. When one's cultivation could resonate with the heaven, whether it was the wind and rain, or the hailstones, the world would resonate to show one was different from the rest.
One could choose to seal oneself so such reactions were not garnered. With that, it would be peace everywhere with no bustle, like an emperor who went out for a private visit.
The person who visited this time did not keep his presence, and in reality, he was someone rather impudent.
There stood a monk dressed in golden kasaya in the wind and rain. He was holding a staff, and every time it hit the moist soil, it felt like it could shake the mountain.
Fahai did not seem to understand what low profile meant. Even after he entered the Buddhist sect, he still had the proud expression and features that garnered attention.
The first time Shen Lian came across the name of Mister Sea was when he was swallowed by the Holy Whale, which was the mount of Mister Sea. Later, he killed one of Mister Sea's concubines.
However, the first real encounter with Mister Sea happened about ten years ago. Back then, he was nothing compared to Mister Sea, who was then, Fahai. He was far worse than Huike even before he got his Golden-bodied Arhat.
Fahai then would have thought he was someone incredible, but then he would not have considered him as equal.
Now, Shen Lian and Fahai had similar strength, and in terms of status, Shen Lian stood at a higher position as he was the Chief of Qing Xuan.
This all happened in just ten plus years. To Fahai, it was about as long as his nap.
As such, when he looked at Shen Lian today, he did not attempt to hide his curiosity - he wanted to know how he could achieve such great success within such a short time frame.
When Shen Lian was walking down the mountain, none of the wind and rain could get near him. Wherever he went, they stopped.
For wherever he had been, the Qi of vitality of heaven and earth then regained peace.
This was only natural.
This line rang through Fahai's mind. He read it from one of the books in Jinguang Temple - ”The place of enlightenment of Taixu is not tainted by any technique in the world.” The place of enlightenment of Taixu would only exist when one had practiced Taixu Strategy to its highest level.
Shen Lian was far from achieving the highest level in Taixu Strategy. But such an aura could be detected, and hence it was able to interrupt Fahai's interrelation with Gods.
The clear weather on one side and the stormy weather on the other at the hillside formed an interesting scenery.
Fahai smiled, ”Zhenren Shen's technique is indeed profound.”
Shen Lian replied, ”One can't tell how profound the real technique is.”
Fahai clapped and laughed. The staff, along with the relic on top were dangling and spilling out some Qing Guang.
When he steadied his hand, the staff then did not move an inch. Shen Lian's gaze fell on the relic.
As his divine thoughts permeated it, he could see moonlight.
Underneath the moonlight, there was sword gleam.
While Shen Lian was not a cultivator of the sword, he possessed a rare sword will. In terms of his achievement in swordcraft, there were not many in the world who were better than him, so he indeed had the eyesight to judge this sword gleam.
