Monk Long Jia sensed slightly, even with some difficulty, he turned his head to look at the Buddha statue and then said with certainty, a wise smile on his face: "I suppose he has already gained Venerable Shakyamuni’s recognition, which is why the golden radiance of the Buddha statue has dimmed."
Seeing Long Jia being so certain, Xuanzang’s worries in his heart also eased, although he still had a bit of unease, but with Long Jia in front, even if something went wrong, he could escape.
If the sky collapses, there would be someone tall to hold it.
Xuanzang, with his thoughts swirling in his mind, did not show any emotion. He slightly bowed and said,
"World Honored One, it seems we are yet another step closer to success."
A rare smile appeared on Long Jia’s face. He nodded slightly and said, "As long as everything goes smoothly, then I should be able to get out of trouble."
His eyes looked deep, his whole body surrounded by faint Buddha radiance, his figure at this moment unexpectedly became infinitely towering, with a faint Buddha shadow slowly emerging, presenting a strange vision.
Lu Ren slowly took a deep breath and walked to the front of the archaic-looking treasure box.
Is this what was left by Sakyamuni?
Lu Ren walked around the pedestal once without showing any abnormality. If Monk Long Jia hadn’t solemnly informed him that Shakyamuni’s artifacts were placed on the top layer, he would definitely think Long Jia was entirely bluffing him.
Even now, Lu Ren still felt he was being fooled.
The box was merely palm-sized, about five or six centimeters in diameter, roughly the size to hold jewelry or jade, what could it contain?
Lu Ren reached out and lightly touched the box.
"Ding, you have touched a world relic, and it seems to hold some strange secrets within."
Looks like it’s real!
Lu Ren couldn’t help but move his gaze, with the system conducting active identification, he had no reason to think it was a fake.
He slowly walked to the edge above and took hold of the box. At that moment, he felt a surge of unimaginable spiritual power charging at him.
Before he could react, in his vision, the entire world instantly changed.
It seemed as if he was placed in a void, surrounded by stars, flashing endlessly.
With stars shining bright, the intention of all things choosing at this moment rose from the depths of Lu Ren’s heart, spontaneously.
And at the end of the stars, Lu Ren saw a tall, thin figure dressed in a cyan-gray monastic robe.
This figure coming from far off, suddenly appeared in front of Lu Ren, smiling as he looked at him.
He was a middle-aged man, whose appearance seemed utterly ordinary, enveloped in an extremely mundane aura.
Not even a single bit was worthy of attention.
He seemed like someone who, if thrown onto the street, wouldn’t cause even a ripple. Yet in this context, to truly mistake him for an ordinary person would indeed be foolish.
Lu Ren couldn’t help but ask.
The man’s eyes were deep-set, his eyes bright, akin to the surrounding stars.
He looked at Lu Ren’s confused expression and chuckled, "Are you perplexed about why I pulled you into this deep Spirit Realm?" ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel⦿fire.net
He opened his mouth and said, "I’m merely a fragment left behind. If you truly desire to converse with me, then follow my steps and continue forward."
Lu Ren remained expressionless, silently awaiting what Shakyamuni would say next.
After a brief pause, Shakyamuni continued, "Once, I attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, then stood up and took seven steps, achieving the Buddha Taoism Fruit, glimpsing the True Realm of the Tathagata.
At that time, I found the entire world was changing, which compelled me to slowly plan for a place of opportunity."
He pointed to the stars above and said with a smile, "After traversing the Kunlun Immortal Realm, and Yinming Underworld, I set my sights on this."
"Since the Central Province’s world is gradually altering, I only need to continue pursuing the tides of the extraordinary, one day reaching their end, and there, perhaps, will be a Paradise.
Thus, walking this path, I sowed and left my legacy behind, should anything happen and my body dies with the Tao extinguished, the Buddhist Sect wouldn’t perish."
His expression grew solemn, "If you see this message, then you are the destined one I am searching for, and perhaps, you will meet those things, which will provide you a thread of self-preserving power."
Sakyamuni sighed, "The Central Province begins to diminish, the once thriving places also endure such a fate, who knows where safety lies!"
Then, he rambled some pointless things, hoping the beholder of the image would protect the Buddhist Sect of Beidou Emperor Star, as he foresaw unprecedented calamity.
If it isn’t overcome, then the legacy would perish as the fuse.
He would be laughed at by the old man...
Spoke for a long time, equivalent to saying nothing!
Only the Buddhist Sect, he is the disaster, if this Mani Temple isn’t leveled, he will write his name backwards!
Lu Ren’s face was somber, unable to express the emotions, he just felt utterly fooled.
What exactly has transpired to cause the continual convergence of the cosmos and the Earth’s node.
Making Earth seemingly like a social butterfly; whenever a decent world of heavens sees it, they would run up and leave a mark.
Earth, this social butterfly, refuses none, having its single participant inadequate, engaging in a group revelry.
While Shakyamuni’s message was entirely optional, some things were extremely vague as though said equals not having said, entirely intending to create anxiety and crisis for the image viewer.
When the surrounding star illusions dissipated, the image of Shakyamuni retreated, the Buddha statue hall once again appeared in Lu Ren’s view.
And in the box was a roll of extremely fine scripture and a jade scroll.
When Lu Ren received the scroll, an instant message appeared in his mind.
"Ding, you obtained the ’Future Buddha True Scripture’."
