265: Chapter 140 Challenge Number One_4 265: Chapter 140 Challenge Number One_4 “What does that mean?”
What heritage is this?”
Around them, many people looked toward the Precious Look Peak Master with astonished faces.
The Precious Look Peak Master said solemnly, “The Black Lotus Evil Buddha is not an inheritance of Zen Cultivation from our Hundred Peaks Sect; in fact, many Zen Cultivators do not recognize it as a Zen inheritance at all.
It should have been passed down to the eighth generation within our Hundred Peaks Sect.
At that time, not only did our Sect suffer greatly in strength from that war, many other Sects also faced crises.
Among them, there was a Sect of Zen Cultivation named the Black Lotus Sect.
Although they practiced Zen Cultivation, they cultivated the teachings of the Black Lotus Evil Buddha and were not recognized by Zen Cultivators, nor by Demonic Cultivators.
And for some unknown reason, their entire Sect met with a calamity, with only one expert managing to escape.
After the war, several of our Zen Cultivation Peaks accidentally discovered an ancient site of Zen practice.
So, we ventured together, and at that time our Hundred Peaks Sect was greatly weakened.
With limited experts, the dangers we encountered in that ruin were dealt with by the escaped expert from the Black Lotus Sect.
Thus, afterwards, we brought him back to the Hundred Peaks Sect.
Although the expert did not join our Sect, he settled down in Little Zen Peak.
After all, he had saved us.
Even though we did not approve of his cultivation, we did not drive him away.
He stayed on Little Zen Peak and until his death, he never took another step out of there.
Time passed, and people gradually forgot about him.
Unexpectedly, he had left behind a legacy, and the members of Little Zen Peak learned his teachings.”
Yuan Ci’s face was iron blue.
Indeed, that expert from the Black Lotus Evil Buddha had left behind his teachings, and over the years, a few people from Little Zen Peak occasionally practiced his teachings, but very few indeed, and they never revealed it in public.
Especially in the last five hundred years, no one had cultivated the Black Lotus Evil Buddha’s teachings, until Wu Que appeared.
Wu Que also started practicing the Black Lotus Evil Buddha’s teachings by a stroke of fate.
By the time Yuan Ci found out, it was too late, for Wu Que was his direct Disciple, and he could not simply dispose of Wu Que’s Cultivation Base because of this.
Moreover, some from Little Zen Peak had previously cultivated the teachings of the Black Lotus Evil Buddha.
He could only instruct Wu Que not to display the Black Lotus Evil Buddha’s teachings in front of others.
After all, it was the practice of an Evil Buddha and not the orthodox path of Zen Cultivation.
If word got out, what would others think of Little Zen Peak?
But who would have thought that Wu Que would use the Black Lotus Evil Buddha’s teachings during the grand competition of the Hundred Peaks, when he faced a Disciple with only a single Golden Core?
As Wu Que released the Black Lotus, his entire demeanor seemed suffused with an evil air.
Indeed, his master had warned him not to use the Black Lotus Evil Buddha’s teachings.
But, what would be the consequences if he did not use it?
He would be thought to be surpassed by his junior brother, Wu Ming, sooner or later.
He would be considered one of the weakest Golden Cores, without a doubt.
How could he possibly never use the Black Lotus Evil Buddha’s teachings!
It was precisely through the Black Lotus Evil Buddha that he had achieved the Golden Core!
He was tired of those days.
Today, he would show everyone the power of the Black Lotus Evil Buddha, let everyone know that he was not the weakest Golden Core!
Let everyone realize that the Black Lotus Evil Buddha, too, was a Buddha!
Today, he would vindicate the Black Lotus Evil Buddha!
Wu Que brought his hands together in prayer and slowly opened his mouth, chanting the Buddhist name with the utmost piety.
The sound was majestic, the words were booming, but as the Buddhist chants spread, people felt a bone-deep and soul-penetrating evil aura.
“This Buddhist chant…”
“Not a single phrase of it is complete!”
“What a bizarre presence!”
As the Buddhist chants reverberated, a black lotus flower slowly bloomed above Wu Que’s head, its petals, black to the extreme, unfolding one by one.
In an instant, all forty-nine petals were on full display. Chapters first released on novᴇlfire.net
“Praying Holy Lotus!”
At the moment when the lotus flower bloomed above Wu Que’s head, the endless petals suddenly scattered in all directions, plunging the whole world into darkness.
Each petal was filled with a strange evil aura.
Yet within this evil aura was a Buddhist Energy that could make the worldly forsake everything and enter paradise.
As soon as the Black Lotus appeared, behind Ling Xi, from the Dais of Pathways, the Immortal Bridge, and the sole inner core, mana began to circulate frantically, pushing her power higher and higher.
Beads of sweat the size of soybeans continually fell from her forehead.
Suddenly, a burst of radiance erupted from her body, casting a light in the darkened sky.
In front of her, the Heaven and Earth Bagua Talisman, which had just been restored, released twenty-four Talismans in a sudden flash.
Under normal circumstances, she could gather sixteen Talismans at once, but if she exhausted all her strength, relying on her Ancient Talisman Immortal Body, she could combine twenty-four Talismans into one and shoot them out!
This Talisman was wreathed in the thunder of the Five-thunder Righteous Method.
“Thunder Summoning Symbol!”
The main Talisman, called the Thunder Summoning Symbol, as the name suggests, could summon the thunderbolts from the sky!
The Thunder Summoning Symbol flew above Wu Que’s head, and in the next instant, thunder from the Five-thunder Righteous Method struck down fiercely from the Symbol, and in the sky, a thunderous boom sounded as if to shake the entire Hundred Peaks Sect.
At the same time, a bright blue thunderbolt fell from the heavens, tearing through the boundless darkness wherever it passed.
