Chapter 2319: People from Everywhere
Edited by RED
The World Clan and the Fire Shrine had battled. The Void Phoenix Clan had seen it, and they felt very unhappy. Daimon was incredibly strong, and sinister. However, he didn’t know how to appreciate people’s kindness. Surprisingly, he kept provoking the Fire Shrine. After all, Qiong Hai Ya and Qing Feng, as well as Huo Xing Zi and Jing, were now supposed to be close to one another. The Void Phoenix Clan treated them like they were part of the Fire Shrine.
Of course, some people were really happy, especially the members of the other Shrines. The Fire Shrine kept losing face. It was good for them, so they were gloating over the rival’s misfortune. After all, the Shrines had existed for a very long time, but they were all competitors, not allies. If they had an opportunity, they would definitely finish off one another.
It was especially true now that the Void Phoenix Clan and the Fire Shrine were trying to push their relations to the next level. Of course, the other Shrines, including the Fortune Shrine, also had such relations with other clans from the Northwest Area, and other regions of the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds. As soon as the Shrines and people from other Clans got married, it propelled their relations to the next level. Such connections existed everywhere in the region.
—————-
The Buddha Shrine was in the Western part of the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds where the Countless Shrine used to be. They were one of the oldest Shrines. They rarely tried to compete with the others. However, nobody dared underestimate them just because they didn’t like fighting.
There were ancient districts on the ground. In the ancient times, in the Countless Shrine, there used to be many Buddhist schools. It was a holy place for them.
A few people were on the flight of stairs, their clothes torn apart. They had fought in a great battle. However, their Qi was extremely powerful.
A young Buddhist monk looked at the Shrine and slowly walked up. He put his palms together, looking solemn and respectful.
Up in the sky, golden lights flashed, and a Sakyamuni Buddha appeared.
“Why did you come?” asked the Sakyamuni.
“I came to get help on the path of Buddhism,” declared the young Buddhist monk calmly. Some strong dazzling golden Buddhas appeared around him.
“What is Buddhism?” asked the golden Sakyamuni.
“I’ve been studying Buddhism for a very long time, but I can’t understand the true essence of Buddhism. That’s why I came,” replied the Buddhist monk in a sharp and clear voice.
“To ask for help on the path of Buddhism, you must go through eighty-one calamities. Can you endure that?” asked the golden Sakyamuni. The young Buddhist monk nodded calmly.
“Alright, the first calamity, the death calamity,” said the golden Sakyamuni coldly. A gigantic golden hand descended from the sky towards the young man. It was going to crush him!
The young man put his palms together and a gigantic ancient Buddha appeared. The gigantic Buddha hand and the ancient Buddha collided. Dazzling golden lights flashed.
“Why did you stop it?” asked the voice coldly. His Qi oppressed the young man.
“I came to ask for help on the path of Buddhism. If I wanted to experience death, I could do it anywhere else,” said the young man calmly, “Besides, if I could understand Buddhism for real, I’d understand life and death even better, of course.”
After that, the Sakyamuni remained silent and disappeared. A Buddhist monk appeared at the top of the flight of stairs and asked, “He’s from the Fortune Shrine, why is he here?”
“People from the Fortune Shrine believe in destiny, and the destiny technique said he would be better off in the Buddha Shrine. My Shrine, the Fortune Shrine, is willing to exchange outstanding disciples with the Buddha Shrine. There is no interest conflict in being both a Buddhist and a member of the Fortune Shrine,” said a young man next to him. He smiled and looked up at the sky.
“The Fortune Shrine controls the Destiny Technique, they can predict destiny relatively precisely. Since they say Buddhism is appropriate for him, it must be. We’ll take him as a disciple,” said the person at the top of the flight of stairs, he put his palms together and smiled.
