The Immortal Seeker: Legend of Bronze Mirror-Chapter 836 - 387: Heavenly Court
The senior monk from Shaolin joined his hands and said, "Daoist Xu, you are quite right. Earlier, I was rash."
In fact, everyone here is seasoned in the martial world. How can they not see the peculiarity in the deaths of the two Kunlun disciples? It's precisely for this reason that they asked publicly to uncover the true events.
Thus, Xu Qing's truth was intended to explain to the worldly society, easily swayed by others.
Xu Qing said, "It seems now that someone is deliberately trying to frame me. Consequently, I don't wish to stand aside any longer."
The highest-ranking Tianfeng Superior of Shaolin Temple was delighted, "If Daoist Xu can help our temple find the true culprit behind the murder of the Abbott of Heavenly Lake, our temple will be forever grateful."
Xu Qing smiled and said, "Master, you are too kind. May I see the Dharma body of the Abbott of Heavenly Lake?"
"Daoist Xu, please follow us." Tianfeng Superior pondered briefly and agreed to Xu Qing's request.
Tianfeng Superior then whispered some instructions, inviting a few highly respected jianghu contemporaries. They all proceeded to the meditation room of the Abbott of Heavenly Lake.
Inside the meditation room, it was chillingly cold.
It turns out the Shaolin Temple somehow acquired an eternal Cold Jade Bed to rest the body of the Heavenly Lake Superior.
Several senior figures in the martial world praised the deep heritage of Shaolin Temple.
However, Tianfeng Superior took the initiative to explain.
This was a gift from the Great Hero Divine Eagle, who was on good terms with the colorless Zen master in past years.
Tianfeng Superior further explained that the Cold Jade Bed originated from Chongyang True Master, who left it to the Ancient Tomb Sect.
Regarding how the colorless Zen master received the Cold Jade Bed from the Great Hero Divine Eagle, it is said that he saved the life of the Dragon sect leader from the Ancient Tomb Sect using the Shaolin Nine Yang Skill.
As a result of these events, the colorless Zen master suffered a significant blow to his Essence Qi and ascended to Nirvana a few years ago.
Tianfeng Superior is actually the martial uncle of the colorless Zen master.
But the two are actually of similar age.
Though the colorless Zen master was a generation below Tianfeng Superior, he was a martial genius rarely seen at Shaolin Temple over the century. His mastery of the Prajnaparamita Palm, Formless Finger, and Nianhua Finger was unparalleled at the time. Later, he also cultivated the Shaolin Nine Yang Skill, with his cultivation almost rivaling the Five Greats of the past.
However, after the Dragon sect leader was saved by the colorless Zen master, his personality changed dramatically, injuring the Great Hero Divine Eagle, and ventured to the Extreme North, never returning to Central Earth.
In recent years, in the Northeast region, there have been occasional rumors of a person resembling the Nine Heavens Profound Lady appearing, and herb gatherers from Liao Dong noted the resemblance, circulating to the Central Plains, alleging the person resembles the Dragon sect leader strongly.
There's also a rumor that this Dragon sect leader can attract auroras for cultivation, having long transcended the mortal world.
Xu Qing also heard these rumors while gathering information from the worldly society.
He stepped forward to the Cold Jade Bed, suddenly striking a palm at the chest of the Heavenly Lake Abbott's body.
Everyone was startled.
Just about to speak.
At that moment, the eyes of the Heavenly Lake Abbott suddenly opened.
Revival?
Fortunately, those who came in were no ordinary individuals.
Even when facing such bizarre occurrences like revival, they held back their shock without panicking.
Tianfeng Superior approached, "Abbott, how are you now?"
Xu Qing spoke softly, "I used the Soul Revival Technique, Master Tianfeng. If you need to ask anything, now is the time."
Only then did Heavenly Lake Superior understand and quickly asked, "Abbott, who harmed you?"
The expression of the Heavenly Lake Superior began with confusion, then his gaze landed on Wuhua among the crowd.
"Wuhua?" Everyone was astounded.
Because, although the Heavenly Lake Abbott was not Wuhua's master, much of Wuhua's learning was transmitted by the Heavenly Lake Abbott, making him half a mentor to Wuhua.
This action by Wuhua was unmistakably a betrayal of one's master.
Seeing the situation, without waiting for the Shaolin monks to inquire clearly, Wuhua immediately struck with a palm.
It was unmistakably Shaolin's absolute skill, the Prajnaparamita Palm.
The powerful palm power blocked everyone, and immediately after, a smoke bomb commonly used by Japonese ninjas was thrown, saturating the entire scene with smoke, allowing Wuhua to escape directly.
…
…
Tianfeng Superior pursued as fast as he could, but when he reached the cliff behind the mountain, he found Xu Qing already there by the cliff.
Only Xu Qing was at the cliff.
"Where's Wuhua?" Tianfeng Superior's expression was somewhat mournful.
Because Wuhua was precisely the disciple he had adopted.
Yet, Wuhua turned out to be the murderer of the Heavenly Lake Abbott.
This matter, how could he accept it?
In truth, with his wisdom, he had already guessed as much, only he was never willing to confirm it.
"He jumped off the cliff, but he didn't die." Xu Qing said leisurely.
How could Wuhua be his match?
But just when Xu Qing was about to catch Wuhua, a Jade Buddha appeared, nearly shattering Xu Qing's Primordial Spirit.
Indeed, after two Underworld Ghost Messengers hooked his soul, Xu Qing could clearly sense his Primordial Spirit, but could not let it out.
The Soul Hooking Technique of the Underworld Ghost Messengers is more like a law, thus pulling out his Primordial Spirit.
Of course, this world's rules do not allow the Primordial Spirit to remain out for too long.
However, the things inside the Jade Buddha were evidently bound by it.
So after releasing one strike, it was quickly enveloped in Buddha's light, leaping off the cliff with Wuhua to escape.
This is quite the archetypical villain's fate.
Xu Qing mused silently before Tianfeng Superior arrived.
Simultaneously, both the Jade Buddha and the Ghost Messengers served as a reminder to Xu Qing.
This world's End of Dharma era seems to be coming to a close.
As for the earlier Soul Revival Technique used on the Heavenly Lake Abbott, it was actually a small trick by Xu Qing, controlling the deceased body of the Heavenly Lake Superior using his own Innate Qi.
The cultivation of this world, in terms of human anatomy and control, isn't as formidable as the Martial Arts of the Great Yu Dynasty.
But the techniques of Martial Arts are second to none.
The current world's Martial Arts bears a sense of "technique can progress to Tao, and art can connect to the divine."
