Wandering Gods of Day and Night

Chapter 1449: Chapter 538: Silver Bodhisattva Flower

Zhou Xuan’s perception, like countless beams of laser light, constantly penetrated through the dense layers of vegetation,

even through the soil and rocks, straight into the mountain body.

Inside the mountain, he saw rich, intricate... blood vessels.

Within the blood vessels, there was the sound of liquid rapidly flowing.

"This mountain looks like a person, a living person."

Zhou Xuan couldn’t figure out what kind of transformation had been done to the mountain after "Yanfuti," "Hundred-eyed Child," and others secretly occupied Lotus Mountain, causing such thick blood vessels to appear within.

"I also feel that this mountain is like a person."

Zhao Wuya hunched his shoulders and said to Zhou Xuan, "I have a very uncomfortable feeling, as if my whole body is lying inside someone else’s stomach, it’s very slippery, and the surrounding flora has become very sticky."

The incense fire Taoist remained silent; being at the Heavenly God Level, he naturally sensed things that ordinary people could not perceive.

"Old Incense, why are you becoming more and more dejected as we walk, not wanting to say a word?"

As the three of them journeyed closer to the Lotus Temple, the incense fire Taoist went from initially at ease to now silent,

Zhou Xuan, worried that the old Taoist was keeping his worries to himself, voluntarily started talking to offer some comfort.

The incense fire Taoist whimpered and then let out a long sigh, his white beard quivering slightly on his face.

He said, "Zhou, oh Zhou, before you emerged into the world, I already sensed the hidden worries of Jing Country, but it was just a bit of perception,

at least back then, Jing Country was peaceful and prosperous, full of songbirds and flowers. There was no sign of great disaster,

now I realize that Jing Country is like an old, internally decayed tree, looking fine on the outside, but its insides are riddled with disease, utterly withered."

Zhou Xuan heard the underlying meaning in his words,

and he said with feigned lightness, "Old Incense, what story are you telling now?"

"This mountain has become the Lotus Mountain of the Buddha Country."

The incense fire Taoist casually flicked his fingers.

A Heavenly God Level finger snap had the power to move mountains; with this snap, the distant peaks barely quivered but quickly returned to normal.

"The mountain didn’t move?" Zhou Xuan was slightly surprised.

The incense fire Taoist, however, lowered his head and said, "This mountain is no longer in the space of Jing Country; it belongs to another layer of space. When the Hundred-eyed Child was alive, it did not reveal its true form,

now that the Hundred-eyed Child is dead, it shows its true nature,

but even though I see its true form, I can’t locate the layer of space it resides in, and I can’t harm it."

"Then, Brother Xuan, can’t you use your divine skills again, use the method of hitting the bull through the mountain, and cut down this Lotus Mountain altogether?"

Zhao Wuya suggested from the side.

Zhou Xuan shook his head: "My method of hitting the bull through the mountain originally utilized the explosion of power to permeate into adjacent spaces when filling the real world,

since it’s permeating, to be blunt, in the real world, it would at most penetrate into another space with only a fraction of the power,

it’s still too weak, cutting down the likes of the Hundred-eyed Child might be possible, but cutting down the entire Lotus Mountain is unlikely."

The incense fire Taoist said, "Indeed, Yanfuti of Buddha Country linked this strange space layer by layer with the real space of Jing Country through continuous entanglement, which has now become the Lotus Mountain, then covered it with the self-contained space of the Hundred-eyed Child,

the present Lotus Mountain allows us to feel the traces of Buddha Country’s space, yet we can’t harm it at all, it’s so peculiar."

"So, you’re worried." Zhou Xuan finally understood the incense fire Taoist’s previous sigh and asked.

"Worried indeed."

The incense fire Taoist opened his arms, forming a "large" shape, and said,

"The occupation of Lotus Mountain is a small matter, but how many other mountains in Jing Country have been occupied by the Buddha Country using such space entanglement methods is unknown."

When you see a fat worm on the outside of a tree, in reality, the tree already harbors hundreds of fat worms.

"Let’s not think too far ahead, let’s deal with what’s in front of us first."

Zhou Xuan flicked his sleeves and led the way into the Lotus Temple.

Inside the temple, it didn’t resemble the appearance of Lotus Mountain.

In Lotus Mountain, although there were countless blood vessels running intricately, at the end of the day, they were hidden beneath the soil and rocks, not so conspicuous at first glance.

But inside the temple,

all the walls were covered with blood vessels resembling giant scarlet tentacles, looking extremely terrifying.

The ground in the temple was also covered with mucus, the smell was undoubtedly unbearable.

Zhou Xuan pinched his nose, frowned, and after passing through a few corridors in the temple, he heard the sound of crying.

The sound of crying was all like children.

"Those little yellow-skinned ones are crying."

After speaking, Zhou Xuan quickly headed toward the source of the crying.

When he arrived, he saw dozens of Little Yellow Skins crying while clinging to the body of a plump old lady.

This old lady was none other than Lady Lianhua.

Beside Lady Lianhua stood Lord Jian and Zhou Lingyi.

"Sister."

Zhou Xuan walked toward Zhou Lingyi.

Zhou Lingyi sighed and said, "Brother, Lady Lianhua has passed away in meditation."

Her mention of passing away in meditation further upset the Little Yellow Skins around, causing them to cry even more sorrowfully.

"Impossible, there were signs of enlightenment."

Zhou Xuan walked up to Lady Lianhua, and upon checking her breath, indeed found no sign of it.
