Chapter 565 -146: Consuming the Buddha with One’s Body, Alone! (Subscribe Please)_2
The grey-robed old monk knew that the only reason the Great Tang Emperor hadn’t killed him at this moment was that he still had some utilitarian value.
Otherwise.
The Great Tang Emperor would certainly not engage in any unnecessary chatter with him, and he probably would have been severed with a sword before he even had a chance to speak.
The Great Tang Emperor nodded slightly, then his gaze slowly moved away from the pond, landing on the distance, “In this world, I do not know how many have awakened, I need you to collect all of your former colleagues.”
“Many people from the temples across Great Tang should still be clinging to life now, those who have been contaminated by the way of heaven and earth the most have been from the Buddha Sect.”
“Even if they have managed to survive until now, their nature is mostly mad, you should either subdue them or awaken them, just as long as you can make them useful to me.”
The Great Tang Emperor finished speaking.
The grey-robed old monk was so shocked that he was momentarily at a loss for words, feeling like an intern who had just started work and had been tasked with taking the company public.
“Your Majesty, about this task…”
The grey-robed old monk paused for a while, wanting to say more.
However, the Great Tang Emperor was no longer interested in listening, he waved his hand and abruptly dispersed the image in the pond.
The faint glow emanating from the pond quickly thinned, barely visible, until it disappeared completely and nothing could be seen anymore.
Once the pond had returned to calm.
The Great Tang Emperor lay back in his lounge chair, gazed at the pond for a moment, then seemed to realize something, his eyes following the direction Cheng Guang had left in.
“The Saint Monk is dead, with no chance of survival, and the hope for reincarnation is extremely slim.”
“The Saint Monk…”
“Could it be him?”
The Great Tang Emperor muttered to himself.
Underneath the fierce mask, his eyes revealed a trace of confusion at the right moment.
……
At this time, Cheng Guang was unaware of what the Great Tang Emperor was thinking, nor did he know that the Great Tang Emperor had once again begun to doubt the aura of Tang Sanzang on him.
Cheng Guang didn’t really care about this.
It was normal for the Great Tang Emperor to not see through him.
If the Great Tang Emperor could see through him, that would be truly strange.
After all, the aura of Tang Sanzang on Cheng Guang was merely brought about by the Fruits of Path to Divinity.
In a certain sense, Tang Sanzang had long died countless times over.
Thoroughly dead indeed.
Otherwise.
Cheng Guang wouldn’t have been able to obtain the Fruits of Path to Divinity of Tang Sanzang through the Heavenly Dao Pill.
Accompanied step by step by Zhou Qingxu, Cheng Guang made his way towards the Library.
The location of the Library was far from the bamboo house where the Great Tang Emperor resided.
It seemed as distant as the horizon.
But.
After walking a few steps following Zhou Qingxu, Cheng Guang noticed to his surprise that the Library was drawing closer with each step.
It was as if the space of this world was moving with his footsteps, rapidly shrinking in sync.
This was odd.
Could it be that this world was not a proper world after all?
Cheng Guang’s eyes narrowed slightly, filled with doubt.
“Princely Heir, this is the Mirror World.”
“A world created by the Master’s own hands, where everything changes according to the Master’s will.”
“Entering this world also requires the Master’s consent.”
“Other than the Master’s invitation, even we, the Twelve Sect Leaders, cannot enter this Mirror World.”
Zhou Qingxu seemed to notice the confusion in Cheng Guang’s eyes and timely spoke up to clarify for Cheng Guang.
Cheng Guang nodded slightly upon hearing this.
“I see.”
Zhou Qingxu, leading Cheng Guang, moved through myriad scenes, and soon enough, the figure of the Library appeared before them.
Cheng Guang stood in front of the Library, surveying it.
The Library used by the Great Tang Emperor to store objects was even more majestic and imposing than Cheng Guang had imagined, constructed entirely of purple sandalwood, emitting a distinct fragrance as soon as he approached.
It was pleasant but not overwhelming, as if it bore the scent of countless years.
At the same time.
Cheng Guang also saw that the Library had five stories, each level roughly several zhang high, with considerable space between floors, as if each level was a vast square.
“Princely Heir, please come this way.”
As Cheng Guang was sizing up the Library, Zhou Qingxu courteously stepped aside, indicating the direction for Cheng Guang.
Cheng Guang gave a slight nod.
Following Zhou Qingxu’s footsteps, he entered the Library.

The interior of the Library was quite different from what Cheng Guang had imagined, with rows upon rows of bookshelves.
There weren’t many books, nor were there numerous shelves.
Mostly, there were sealed rooms.
Each room contained a jade pillar, upon which were placed items of various sizes.
As Cheng Guang passed by these rooms, observing their contents and looking at the objects on the jade pillars, he couldn’t help but slightly furrow his brows.
It wasn’t that he found the assortment of strange things in the Great Tang Emperor’s Library peculiar.
Rather, these strange things themselves were inherently odd.
Even without getting close, just by looking through the wooden door at the items on the jade pillars, Cheng Guang could feel an aura of evil and filth.
By merely glancing, many of the darker emotions in the depths of Cheng Guang’s heart were stirred up.
This feeling was a bit stronger than when he had encountered the Queen of the South Ming, but much weaker than when he had seen the Great Tang Emperor.
Looking at the items on these jade pillars, Cheng Guang needed only to focus his thoughts to suppress all the dark emotions in his heart, without the need for the Saint Dao Fruit in his Primordial Spirit to take effect.
