”The Child-endowing Buddha is merely one of the 13 Living Buddhas in the Bigwheel Temple, so he may not have the power to influence the Bigwheel Temple's decision. Even if the Divine Wind Palace and the Bigwheel Temple will join forces, the Child-endowing Buddha alone does not have the final say!”
”You'd better be careful. A tall tree catches the wind!” Wang She smiled cynically.
”Oh, and how did you know the Child-endowing Buddha is here?” Zhou Bao asked him suddenly.
”Your territory is only a small area. You also arranged for my guys to be your guards. How can't I know? But I was in a closed-door training yesterday and I didn't hear about it. Upon completion of my training, I heard the news and came to you immediately. I'm worried that you might have offended him. You ruined his incarnation unexpectedly!”
”What I want is not only to destroy his incarnation, but also to find a way to injure him and even to the extent of killing him!” Zhou Bao said. His tone was filled with immense hate as if he bore a deep grudge against the Child-endowing Buddha.
”Why?” Sensing the sudden venomous hate spewing from Zhou Bao, Wang She felt puzzled.
”You said that this guy is narrow-minded and likes to avenge the smallest grievance. Now that I have seriously hurt his incarnation, he's bound to oppose me. Naturally, I will deal with him. As for the thousand incarnations that you mentioned and the 80% strength recovery in 50 years. 50 years later, even if his strength recovers by 180%, it will not be a big deal, let alone 80%?” Zhou Bao spoke confidently.
”Yes. You're right. You're only 20 years old, but you've reached such a level already. 50 years will surely give you a further enhancement of your skills, that is if you don't become evil. Who knows which level you will attain? You certainly don't need to bother about the Child-endowing Buddha!” Wang She instantly understood Zhou Bao's tone. At the sight of Zhou Bao's confident expression, he also laughed. ”It seems you've already known what you want. I won't give need to give you more advice!” At the same time, Wang She's figure flashed and turned into a cyan light, disappearing into the Space of Segmented Realms.
”I didn't realize that this guy was able to break through my Space of Segmented Realms so quickly and silently that I did not feel a thing. It seems that I have underestimated him!” Wang She vanished, and with it, Zhou Bao's smile too. Wang She's sudden appearance was a big surprise. The Space of Segmented Realms was controlled by him. Logically speaking, anyone who wanted to enter this space would not be able to hide from him. However, Wang She had boldly entered the Space, which was really beyond any of his expectations.
”Wang She must have practiced one of the 3,000 Great Ways. It's not the Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique. Instead, it's a very unobtrusive skill, a little bit like the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill that you practice. But it's a more wondrous skill!”
”Have you heard of it?”
”No. The 3,000 Great Ways have many variations and are closely guarded secrets. Except for the famous cultivation method of the Great Ways like the Way of the Emperor, I don't have much information about the other ways!” Green Spirit said helplessly. ”But I know the Mandkesvara Way. The Mandkesvara Sect is famous for it and its destruction was also due to it!”
”I will not bother too much about it. People only live once in this world, so we strive for happiness instead. Having to take so many things into consideration is really boring!” Zhou Bao said. The space suddenly vibrated, and the segmented space disappeared when he raised hands. The Jingtan Temple reappeared to the present world again. However, the entire temple yard had a desolate and chilled atmosphere now, unlike previously, when the temple grounds was permeated with the aroma of incense and filled with throngs of worshippers.
Looking around, Zhou Bao gave a grim laugh and stamped his feet. With a loud rumbling sound, the whole ground churned and convulsed. Jingtan Temple became a total wreck as it was razed to the ground.
Zhou Bao's figure gradually faded into the pervading dust.
…
…
Snow Mountain, Bigwheel Temple.
Remote and filled with silence.
This temple was built on the ridge of Snow Mountain. From the distance, it looked like a giant bronze dragon lying on the ridge, stretching hundreds of miles.
The whole temple seemed to be cast in bronze, giving off a stark and cold ambience.
Behind the Mahavira Hall lay a building with numerous large courtyards. One of the courtyard was spacious and grand, and was filled with a flowery fragrance. Now and then women's laughter and screams could be heard. However, their voices seemed to be contained within the yard area by a strange force and did not peter out at once, but lingered in the air for a long time.
All of a sudden, a cry was heard, coming from the courtyard. Subsequently, all the laughter stopped.
”Sacred Roots. It's the Sacred Roots power. It's amazing that there's a woman who holds the Sacred Roots power in this world. That's terrific!”
