Longevity Chronicles-Chapter 631 - 409: Thundering Buddha Flame, the humble monk gladly accepts

Recorded for a lifetime, Tao Qian glimpsed secrets.

It was said that this kind of reincarnation talent had an extraordinary effect in this world.

At that moment, secrets emerged in his mind, which even within the Demon Buddha Temple, only the high-ranking demon monks, such as Hei Bo and Flower Staff, who were equivalent to the cultivators of the Cavernous Mystery Profound, were eligible to know.

For Tao Qian, understanding these came in the blink of an eye.

Had it been earlier, Tao Qian would have been shocked by the scale of the Demon Buddha Temple's operations.

Now, having seen much, he even leisurely judged in his heart,

"It's still the old fishing tactic."

"Using the Devil Concubine as bait to attract various warlords and strong people, using their flesh and life as nourishment for Refining Treasure."

"After completion, to then counter-strike the Gao Family? To swallow up the whole of Tiannan Province as well?"

Though he did not know the specifics,

Tao Qian somehow felt he had guessed correctly.

Outside Yinping City, after the Buddha Light Array was activated by the two demon monk venerables, they suddenly sat opposite each other, smiled as they looked at one another, each forming a Buddha Seal, muttering words.

Suddenly, in the middle of the vast array, a crack explosively formed.

Behind the crack appeared to be another world, or perhaps, a Secret Realm.

A Buddhist chant that shocked both Tao Qian and Yuan Gong sounded through.

Master Yuan even directly transmitted a message to warn,

"Kid, do not pry, that's some old bald monk from the Demon Buddha Temple."

Master Yuan's description was certainly strange.

However, Tao Qian immediately understood; the so-called old bald monk referred to the topknot of flesh on their heads.

That meant, the owner of the Buddhist chant was some Buddha.

"Is it that Namo Nirvana Demon Buddha?"

"What level is he at? Equivalent to a Daoist Transformation? Or a Tribulation Immortal?"

Tao Qian pondered.

The Buddhist chant quickly faded, and from the crack, an object fell out.

It was a half-mechanical, half-glassy bony substance, resembling a mechanical relic.

Its surface was engraved with numerous runes from an Exotic Realm, layered endlessly as if one could never find the bottom.

The most astonishing thing was, this object seemed to be... alive?

Accompanied by a "roar," a storm filled with the Essence Qi of life swept over the entire Buddha Light Array.

Anybody could feel the vibrant life emotions from it, a thirst.

A thirst for flesh, soul, and elemental essence!

It went without saying!

This object was the so-called Mechanical Seed.

As it landed, fitting perfectly in the center of the array, runes dazzled and treasure light soared.

It seemed as if the gate to Ten Thousand Marvelous opened, and corps filled with Extraordinary Power from Yinping City were devoured into it.

Its speed was so fast, even Tao Qian could not react in time, but only watch as the mechanical relic devoured ten thousand All Demons.

Originally, the object was half pitch black and half sparkling glass.

But now, it had startlingly turned blood-red.

A "Blood Buddha relic" was dragging a sticky crimson blood trail, burrowing straight into the "fetal membrane" behind hundreds of chanting demon monks.

At this moment, the two Venerables, along with all the demon monks, suddenly changed the scripture in their hands and began to recite the "Demon Buddha's Long Sutra."

The reason for reciting this sutra!

It was because the Dirghagama - sutra depicted the [birth of a Bodhisattva].

The original name of the scripture was simply "Dirghagama - sutra," which was a Secret Book of the Great Freedom Temple.

Somehow, it had been stolen by the Demon Buddha Temple, directly adding three words and claiming it as their own.

At this moment, Tao Qian, accompanied by Yunrong, stood atop Yellow Cloud Mountain, feeling somewhat eager to move but silently aware that the timing was not yet right.

At the same time, he couldn't help but complain to Yuan Gong about the Demon Buddha Temple at the bottom of his heart,

"Everyone says the Demon Buddha Temple is powerful, capable of resisting Guanyin Temple, Great Freedom Temple, Great Reincarnation Temple, these orthodox Buddhist Sects with the strength of one temple alone."

"Could it be, all relying on this kind of method?"

"Stealing other's classic Secret Books and claiming them for their own?" frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

For some reason, when Tao Qian mentioned the word "stealing," he was especially grinding his teeth, utterly vexed.

Previously, when Tao Qian asked questions, Master Yuan nearly always had an answer, but this time, he was somewhat vague, saying: "The reason for this, cannot yet be spoken, cannot be spoken."

Just as Tao Qian wanted to pursue further questions, suddenly within Yinping City.

Refining Treasure was reaching its final stage.

That sticky blood-red mechanical relic, amidst the vast chanting, burrowed into the fetal membrane.

In that instant, a thousand-mile territory plunged into Buddha Country.

All around, traces of ten thousand Buddhas appeared, flowers rained disorganized, and Earth Bursting Golden Lotus.

Inside the now flesh-colored fetal membrane, that initially blurred figure's outline suddenly took complete form.

Sitting atop a Lotus Platform, adorned with layer upon layer of a thousand arms, spread out like a peacock displaying its feathers, and in each hand, in every Buddha's Palm, there was an eye of wisdom.

Moreover, in those Buddha hands were held many Magic Artifacts and Buddha Treasures, like Yang Branch, White Feather, Treasure Vase, Counting Beads, Skull Treasure Staff, Treasure Mirror, Treasure Conch, Jade Ring, Vajra Wheel... as if countless, until switching to another direction where five hundred arms held peculiar cold and menacing mechanical creations.

Things like copper pipe iron cannon, fortress towers, mechanical globes... even Tao Master did not recognize any.

He could only sense the danger, a danger that also terrified him.

Once this object, the Dharma Image, was revealed.

Inside and outside the city, under the lead of the two Venerables, all demon monks spoke simultaneously:

"We welcome the Great Compassionate and Merciful Transcendent Bodhisattva to this world."

All demon monks showed joy on their faces.

Anyone who wasn't blind could see this Transcendence Bodhisattva modeled after the Thousand-Handed Guanyin, was a Buddha Treasure of incredible Power.

During the Buddhist chant, this Great Transcendence Bodhisattva suddenly began to shrink.

Its thousand hands closed together, Buddha Light surged, and split open the left flank of the fetal membrane.
