Daoist Master Of Qing Xuan Chapter 688 - Vulture Peak

Chapter 688 - Vulture Peak

When Tian Peng entered into The Little Celestial World, Ziwei Imperial Lord Yuxu sensed it. His heart became clear and bright and his divine thoughts spread out in the void. He saw someone. His features were beautiful and he looked elegant. His clothes seemed like it was weaved with symbols and words of the Great Way. One would feel small in front of him.

Ziwei Imperial Lord Yuxu turned his divine thoughts into a figure and stood in front of him. He said coldly, "You are not dead."

"The Great Emperor Ziwei was dead. What was left is Su Changwan," The one talking was the mysterious Mr.Su who taught Shen Lian swordcraft previously. As compared to thousand years before, he was indifferent. However, his Spiritual shape was vague and it was like the universe, accommodating everything.

Ziwei Imperial Lord Yuxu uttered, "Why are you here?"

Mr.Su smiled lightly and replied, "If you know my existence, I will be dead. Hence, instead of waiting for you to kill me, I shall kill you."

Ziwei Imperial Lord Yuxu answered noncommittally, "I was not the same and you were not The Great Emperor Ziwei. What is your basis to kill me?"

Mr.Su said nonchalantly, "Based on my sword."

There was no sword on his hand but Ziwei Imperial Lord Yuxu could feel the sword will surrounded him. This was because as Mr.Su was talking, everything that Ziwei Imperial Lord Yuxu saw or sensed with his divine thoughts had turned into Mr.Su's sword.

This was not the world's greatest swordcraft but it was not far from it.

It was not easy to kill Ziwei Imperial Lord Yuxu just by this move, even though Daoist Yuanqing and Vishnu were secretly observing Ziwei Imperial Lord Yuxu.

Ziwei Imperial Lord Yuxu did not respond. All of a sudden, there was a bright light from the s.p.a.ce. Three hundred sixty s.h.i.+ning stellar were joined to form a celestial tactical formation. At the same time, Ziwei Imperial Lord Yuxu's true body arrived and became the leading center of the formation.

Outside the celestial tactical formation, an old Daoist smiled bitterly and stated, "He actually could set up the Big Universe Star Tactical Formation."

Below the old Daoist was the Milky Way. A deity, sitting on a long snake, appeared. The deity spoke, "If he set up the Big Universe Star Tactical Formation, will the people from Vulture Peak save him?"

"Yes. The people from Vulture Peak would be here to kill us," The old Daoist said emotionlessly.

The deity smiled and questioned, "It was normal for them to kill me as I betrayed the Order. Why would they want to kill you too?"

The old Daoist replied, "Before the universe ends, there will appear a Daoist Master and he will be the last Daoist Master. The chances of becoming the Daoist Master is rare but unfortunately, I am one of it."

The deity held his palms together and responded, "Things are unpredictable. I am in favor of that person a few generations below you."

The old Daoist did not reply but looked at him sternly. The deity had a sky eye in between his eyebrows. It seemed to be able to look into the past and future.

Finally, both of them stopped talking. It seemed as though they were waiting for something.

In the Elysium, the Buddha once set foot on the Vulture Peak to practice cultivation. Mount Sumeru was publicly recognized as the sacred mountain in Buddhism records but since Buddha had reached the enlightenment in Dao, the Vulture Peak became the second sacred mountain among the three realms. The first sacred mountain of the three realms was not Mount Sumeru but it was the Kunlun Mountains.

The mountain was not high but was famous due to the presence of celestial; the water was not deep but was spiritual due to the presence of a dragon. The Vulture Peak was known as the sacred mountain because of the presence of Buddha.

After the Buddha detached from his origins, there was no leader in the Vulture Peak. In other words, there was no one worthy to be the leader of Vulture Peak. Neither Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva nor Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara was acknowledged. However, n.o.body knew where they were too.

The recommended leader was Mahakashyapa. This was not because he had the highest supernatural power or the deepest cultivation. It was actually due to he was the most detached person. Besides, he was honest, upright and trusted by the Buddha.

Hence, if he were the leader of Vulture Peak, most people would be genuinely convinced.

Kasyapa sat in the palace at Vulture Peak. Below him were the Buddhas, Arhat, and Boddhisattva. He was not wearing the kasaya but was wearing a ragged robe. It made him more distinguished and good-looking.

The long period of staying in Vulture Peak did not affect him.

A monk said, "The Venerable Kasyapa when I entered into a state of spiritual calmness, I saw a sword killing the monks in Vulture Peak. Would you know the origins of the sword?"

He was not ordinary. Hence, what he saw in his dreams may not be fabricated.

Kasyapa queried, "Jianglong the Venerable, was there any distinction in the sword?"

"It was fierce and better than the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal," Jianglong the Venerable responded. He had the strongest mana among the Arhat. He was even better than some Boddhisattva and ancient Buddha.

Kasyapa answered, "This must be the Congenital Killing Sword."

"Tongtian Order Master had the Celestial Extermination, Celestial Trapping, Celestial Exhaustion and Celestial Slaughter Sword. I had seen all but this Congenital Killing Sword was not one of it," explained Jianglong the Venerable.

Kasyapa continued, "Besides that four swords, there are Yuantu and Avici Congenital Killing Sword. You must have seen one of these."

Jianglong the Venerable asked, "What were the origins of Yuantu and Avici?"

Kasyapa replied, "These belonged to the Master of the Netherworld and were comparable to the Quadruple Extermination of Celestial sword. They had strong mana and had obtained the Dao human form. It was hard to find someone more powerful than them.

Jianglong the Venerable questioned, "I dreamt about the Congenital killing the monks in the Vulture Peak and thus eliminating Buddhism. The Venerable Kasyapa, was there anything to be done to avoid this situation?"

Kasyapa said, "No worries. The Winning Buddha was protecting the Buddhist sect. The Congenital Killing Sword would not destroy the Buddhist sect."

Jianglong the Venerable looked around and could not find the Winning Buddha. Therefore, Kasyapa was deep-rooted in the Dharma. He could predict this situation much earlier than him.

…

Shen Lian was in a state of spiritual calmness in Biyou Palace. His mental state was vague. It seemed as though he did not have any thoughts. At the same time, it seemed that what he had seen could be born with just a thought.

The Primeval Demon did not ask anything else but his heart. Hence, the Primeval Demon could know any thought that came to his mind. However, Shen Lian did not know of his the Primeval Demon's next move.

He was just moving forward in the dark, not knowing the end. There could also be no end to this.

Nevertheless, he was not afraid and not worried that he would be lost in this vague darkness.

The scariest part of the darkness was the mysterious unknown. Hence, some of the great people would treat the mysterious unknown as void so they would not be affected. Nonetheless, this method was not solving the root cause. For example, the Practices of the Bones of Dead. If one looked at the pink as a skeleton, one still emphasized on appearance. He could not make a clean break and his gains were temporary, just like the moon in the mirror.

Those who made a clean break of appearance would see the pink as pink, the skeleton as a skeleton. There would not be favoritism or fear in their hearts.

Shen Lian had made a clean break from appearances. Although the dark, mysterious unknown put him into Nowhere, he could still stay calm and not bothered.

If he did not go through the inescapable doom, he would not able to do it even though he could understand the reason.

As he was able to do it, he allowed the Primeval Demon to spy his inner thoughts and put him in this dark unknown.
