Chapter 218 Five Finger Mountain! Now the Tathagata Sutra!
Ni Kun looked at the five-colored jade and the golden scroll, pondered for a moment, and raised his hand to grab the five-colored jade.
As soon as his five fingers touched the jade, Ni Kun's mind was shaken, and then his eyes went dark, and he saw a vision:
A golden Buddha's palm that covered the sky and the sun turned over and fell down. In the palm of the Buddha's palm, there was a golden violent ape that was ten thousand feet tall.
The violent ape roared loudly, his golden eyes glared with golden light, and he swung an iron rod like a giant pillar in both hands, smashing the Buddha's palm frantically.
But no matter how wildly the iron rod smashed, the Buddha's palm remained motionless, only balls of golden light continued to splash out, bursting out in all directions like fireflies.
When the violent ape saw that it couldn't break the Buddha's palm, it leaped up and was about to fly out of the palm's range.
But the five elements between heaven and earth were in turmoil.
There were countless red, white, green, black and yellow air waves surging from all directions, like thousands of five-colored dragons, merging and interweaving with each other, condensing into mysterious patterns, spreading around the Buddha's palm like a cage, sealing off the surrounding space tightly.
No matter how the giant ape flew, it could only circle in the same place and could not escape the cage formed by the five-colored air waves.
The giant ape's body was sometimes big and sometimes small, sometimes as big as a mountain and sometimes as small as a speck of dust. But even if it became smaller, there was no trace of space left and it was sealed tightly under the Buddha's palm by the five-colored air waves.
Boom!
The Buddha's palm fell, and the five energies intertwined, transforming into a mountain that looked like an inverted palm, firmly pinning the violent ape under the mountain...
The Buddha's palm fell to the ground and turned into a mountain. Ni Kun also woke up from the illusion, with a strange look on his face.
"The palm strike my master used to suppress my disciple."
This is the name of the magical power contained in this five-colored jade.
"Master Xuanzang, you are really naughty. A good Tathagata Palm... Well, I have to admit that this is not just a simple Tathagata Palm."
There is no doubt that what Ni Kun just saw was the scene of Tathagata Buddha suppressing the Monkey King.
When he used his Buddha Palm to suppress the monkey demon, the magical power he displayed was not just a simple Tathagata Palm, but also a sealing technique that integrated the energy of the five elements and weaved a mysterious pattern.
"No wonder the Five Finger Mountain is also called the Five Elements Mountain... The Buddha's palm is transformed into a mountain by integrating the five elements. Isn't that the Five Elements Mountain?"
This move, "the palm that my master used to suppress my disciple back then", is of great significance to Ni Kun.
Because the power of the five elements is transformed into the secret of the seal, it coincides with Ni Kun's conception of his own five elements: the "five-colored divine light" that he is obsessed with is an extremely powerful sealing and suppressing magical power.
The five elements sealing ability of this "My Master..." magical power is of great guiding significance to Ni Kun.
Of course, Tathagata's five elements sealing power is weaker than the five-colored divine light.
Because those who are stunned by the five-colored divine light will almost always become confused and lose all power to resist, and can be manipulated at will.
But this palm strike was far from enough for Tathagata to suppress Sun Wukong.
After Sun Wukong was suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain, he was still able to fight back vigorously and almost overturned the mountain. It took a six-character Buddhist sticker to suppress him.
Despite this, this magical power is also very important to Ni Kun at this stage.
After all, his five elements bloodline had only been forged not long ago and was still in the exploratory stage. Having such a magical power to guide him on how to control the power of the five elements would help him avoid many detours.
There is no secret method for this magical power.
You can only observe the illusion of the Buddha's palm suppressing the monkey's head in the five-colored stone and try to understand it by yourself.
Fortunately, when the Buddha's palm suppressed the monkey head, the five elements' energy in the sky came across like a long dragon, and the scene of interweaving into mysterious patterns was very clear.
Ni Kun has already gained some understanding from his observation just now. If he observes more frequently in the future, he will be able to gain a deeper understanding.
Put away the five-colored jade.
Ni Kun picked up the golden scroll again.
When his fingertips touched the golden scroll, he felt that the texture and touch of the golden scroll were exactly the same as the golden scroll of "The Amitabha Sutra of the Past".
“Could this be…”
Ni Kun's heart moved and he unfolded the scroll. Before he even looked at it, he felt a mighty and domineering aura that gave him a sense of "I am the only one in the world" and shocked his heart.
In Ni Kun's sea of consciousness, the golden Buddha of "Past Amitabha Sutra" shone brightly with golden light. He calmed his mind and suppressed the shocking aura. Then he looked carefully and saw that on the gold and silk, there were indeed ten golden Buddha statues of the same size, with no distinction between primary and secondary.
These ten golden Buddha statues each made a Dharma seal, giving people a feeling of dominating the present and being invincible in the universe. It seemed that they could turn the world upside down, destroy the universe, capture the sun and the moon, and chase the stars.
It is the general outline of the "Present Tathagata Sutra".
Although this general outline does not include any methods for cultivating combat skills or supernatural powers, the ten golden Buddha statues, like the golden Buddha in the Amitabha Sutra in the past, are the fundamental visualization diagrams for cultivating the physical body, and each of the Dharma seals has its own mysteries.
With the high-level guidance of the general outline of the Tathagata Sutra, even ordinary secular martial arts can be elevated into magical combat skills.
"The Five Elements Sealing Technique, now the General Outline of the Tathagata Sutra... Master Xuanzang's gift is really generous!"
Ni Kun lamented:
"With this gift, if I can't make rapid progress in my cultivation and reach the Ninth Heaven soon, I will be so ashamed!"
Putting away the outline of "The Present Tathagata Sutra", Ni Kun stood on the top of the snow-capped mountain, with his hands behind his back, gazing towards the east.
I saw the morning sun rising, revealing the morning light, which rendered the distant sky and earth magnificent, and I couldn't help but feel happy for a moment.
After watching the sunrise for a while, Ni Kun calmed down and returned to Yihua Palace.
As soon as I arrived at my residence, I saw a familiar figure wandering outside the yard, looking nervous but also expectant.
"Master Wuque?" Ni Kun strode over and asked with a smile, "Why are you here so early?"
"Master Ni!" Upon hearing his voice, Hua Wu Que hurried forward, bowed, and said earnestly:
"I have something I would like to ask Master Ni for help. Master Ni has done me a great favor. This favor is heavier than Mount Tai, and I may never be able to repay it in this lifetime. I shouldn't bother Master Ni any more, but this matter concerns my second master, so I have no choice but to come here and ask Master Ni for help."
Ni Kun was in a good mood and smiled when he heard this:
"Mr. Wuque, there is no need to be like this. If you need any help from me, please tell me."
Hua Wu Que was overjoyed and said quickly:
"My second master's left hand and left foot were disabled due to injuries since childhood. Not only did it cause her a lot of inconvenience, but it also left her with a hidden feeling in her heart... well, anyway, it had a great impact on her soul.
"This injury is an old one. Because it was not treated in time, the bones became twisted and deformed, and the meridians and acupoints of the hands and feet also changed their positions. Now it has formed a stable cycle and cannot be cured by ordinary means.
"Mr. Ni has great magical powers. I wonder if he can help my Second Master heal this injury?"
If it is an ordinary person, the disability caused by the bones not being connected properly and growing crookedly is not difficult to cure by just reconnecting the broken bones.
But the problem is that Lian Xing is a martial arts master with profound skills.
The meridians and acupoints in his hands and feet were all crooked due to the growth of his bones, but he had been practicing for many years and had formed a stable circulation with the meridians and acupoints throughout his body.
If you rashly reconnect broken bones, the circulation of the meridians and acupoints will be disrupted, which will only affect your cultivation. If you are not careful, you may go astray and suffer from hemiplegia.
This kind of old injury is almost impossible to treat for ordinary doctors.
But for Ni Kun, it’s not worth mentioning.
He didn't even need to ask Tsunade, a professional doctor, for help, he could do it himself.
"That's easy." Ni Kun said with a smile, "I wonder when Palace Master Lianxing will be free? I can help her heal at any time."
Hua Wuque was surprised and delighted, thinking that he had made the right decision on this trip. It turned out that Master Ni was not only good at subduing demons and monsters, he also had the ability to save the dying and the wounded!
He smiled and said:
"Second Master has already gotten up. She should have finished her morning lessons and is now resting. It should be the right time for us to go find her now."
Ni Kun nodded:
"In that case, please lead the way, Master Wuque, and go treat Palace Master Lianxing's injuries."
Hua Wuque did not hesitate and took Ni Kun to Lianxing's residence.
Soon, the two arrived at Lianxing's residence. Hua Wuque knocked on the door and said softly:
"Second Master, are you resting?"
Lian Xing's sweet and childish voice came from inside:
"Yes, Wuque. Come in."
Hua Wu Que pushed open the door, stood outside the door, bowed, and said:
"Second Master, Master Ni is here too."
"Ah!" Lian Xing exclaimed softly, walked quickly out of the door, and bowed to Ni Kun:
"Master Ni, I haven't gone to greet you yet, how did you get here?"
Ni Kun smiled and said, "Master Wuque came to my place early in the morning and asked me to heal Palace Master Lianxing's injuries. I saw that he was sincere and filial to his teacher, so I accepted his request and came to heal Palace Master's injuries."
Lian Xing was startled, glared at Hua Wu Que in reproach, and then said to Ni Kun:
"Master Ni has done a great favor to our Yihua Palace, and we have yet to repay him. How can we trouble Master Ni to go to so much trouble for such a trivial matter?"
Ni Kun said: "It's okay. For me, healing Palace Master Lianxing's injury is probably just a piece of cake."
He looked at Lianxing with a smile: "I'm already here, Palace Master Lianxing, won't you invite me in?"
Lian Xing lowered her eyelids, avoiding his gaze, and said sweetly:
"I am sorry for being rude, Mr. Ni, please come in."
She stepped aside and led Ni Kun into her boudoir.
Lianxing's boudoir is quite large, but the furnishings inside are very simple and quite cold.
She led Ni Kun into the room and asked him to sit down. Lian Xing then ordered Hua Wuque to prepare tea and snacks for Ni Kun.
Ni Kun said, "No hurry, let's heal our wounds first. Palace Master Lianxing, can you let me see your hand?"
Lian Xing took a look at Ni Kun's sharp eyebrows and clear eyes, and her deep-seated inferiority complex surged up in her heart again. As if she didn't want to expose her shortcomings to Ni Kun's eyes, she hesitated for a while.
Hua Wu Que advised: "Second Master, Master Ni has great magical powers, he will definitely be able to heal your injury."
Lian Xing snorted and glanced at him, "Wu Que, you are so ignorant. We have already received a great favor from Master Ni. How dare you act on your own and trouble Master Ni again?"
Hua Wu Que said hesitantly: "The kindness must be repaid, even if it means going through fire and water, or even dying in pieces. If I can't repay it in this life, I will continue to repay it in the next life..."
Ni Kun laughed dumbly: "It's not that serious...Okay, Palace Master Lianxing, please let me see your hand."
Lian Xing's pretty face flushed slightly, she bit her red lips lightly with her pearly teeth, mustered up her courage, pulled up her sleeves, and extended her left hand to Ni Kun.
Her hands are actually very beautiful, with small palms, slender fingers, nails as crystal as jade, and flawless white skin with a bit of jade-like transparency.
The wrist bones are twisted and deformed so that the palm and fingers cannot straighten themselves. The five fingers can only be curled inward, with the palm raised and always facing the wrist pulse.
Ni Kun raised his hand and grasped her wrist, whose skin was smooth and tender and as cool as jade. His five fingers gently pinched the broken wrist bone, while at the same time releasing streams of thunder energy to explore the condition of her bones, meridians, and acupoints.
When Ni Kun's hot and broad hands grasped her wrist, Lian Xing's ears were already slightly red.
Stimulated by the thunder energy again, Lian Xing felt a slight shock as if her whole body was electrified. She felt numbness in her wrist and an indescribable strange feeling quickly spread from her wrist to her whole body, making her cheeks look like rouge and her earlobes become as crystal clear as pink diamonds.
Fortunately, her cultivation was deep enough and her concentration was strong enough, so she resisted making any sound. However, she still couldn't help but pursed her lips and bit her teeth, and a strange light flashed in her beautiful eyes.
Ni Kun seemed unaware of anything. He just squinted his eyes and lowered his head to stare at Lian Xing's wrist. He continuously released strands of thunder energy to probe Lian Xing's bones, meridians and acupoints. Through the feedback of the thunder energy, he sensed Lian Xing's injuries.
After a moment, he looked up at Lian Xing and said with a smile:
"I'm aware of your injury. It's not difficult to treat, but it will be a little painful. Please be patient."
When Lian Xing raised his head, she had already lowered her head to avoid his sight. Hearing what he said, she hummed softly and said softly:
"Sir, please do as you please. I can bear it."
"Okay." Ni Kun nodded and said:
"Don't worry, Palace Master. Before breaking the bones, I will use the power of thunder to seal the acupoints and paralyze the tendons, minimizing the pain you feel."
Lian Xing said in an almost inaudible voice: "Thank you for your consideration, young master..."
Ni Kun smiled, and released thunder energy from his five fingers, closing the acupoints around her wrist and paralyzing her tendons. Then he exerted force with his five fingers and, with a click, broke her wrist bone.
The crisp sound made Hua Wuque, who was standing next to him, tremble all over and reveal a trace of pain as if he felt the same pain. He looked at Lian Xing with concern, but saw that Lian Xing showed no strange expression and did not seem to feel any pain at all. He then let out a long sigh and looked at Ni Kun with gratitude.
Lian Xing actually still felt a slight dull pain, but the pain was not very obvious. With her tenacity, she was able to endure it without changing her expression.
Ni Kun's consideration also stirred ripples in her heart. Her bright eyes seemed to be attracted by a magnet, staring at Ni Kun's face without blinking.
Ni Kun just lowered his head and stared at her wrist, tapping it repeatedly with his five fingers like playing a piano, and said:
"The Palace Master's wrist bones are too crooked, and a lot of excess bone has grown. I have to melt these bones first, and then correct the wrist bones..."
Lian Xing hummed softly, and said in a trembling voice: "Sir, please let go."
Ni Kun stopped talking, and his five fingers moved up and down, tapping her wrist repeatedly, injecting streams of lightning essence and dissolving excess bone.
After a while, all the excess bone had melted away, and Ni Kun adjusted her wrist bones, mobilizing the energy of thunder and the power of wood and water to help her bones connect quickly.
He said, "The Palace Master's meridians and acupoints cannot be restored to their original positions for the time being. But don't worry, once the foot bones are connected, we can restore the meridians and acupoints to their original positions and eliminate the hidden dangers."
As he spoke, he released Lian Xing's left wrist and said with a smile, "Okay, the wrist bone has been connected. Palace Master, don't move for now. Wait until it's done before trying again. Now it's time to heal the old injury on your foot."
Thinking of exposing her legs and feet in front of Ni Kun, Lian Xing's cheeks couldn't help but feel hot again. Suddenly, she turned her head to look at Hua Wu Que:
"Wuque, you go out first."
"Ah?" Hua Wu Que was slightly startled, but soon came to his senses and nodded, "Then I'll go out first. Master Ni, I'll take my leave."
After saying that, he turned around and went out, and very considerately closed the door behind him. Then he carried the door with his back like a door god and stood outside the door.
"Palace Master Lianxing, can we start?" Ni Kun asked with a smile.
Lian Xing hummed softly, sat on the chair, pulled up her long skirt, revealing half of her slender, straight, snow-white, crystal clear legs, then leaned over to take off her stockings, and then said shyly:
"Thank you for your trouble, Master Ni."
"It's okay." Ni Kun sat opposite her, leaned over, picked up her ankles, and placed her feet on his legs.
Lian Xing's feet were also extremely beautiful, delicate and exquisite, snow-white and tender, just like jade carvings. However, her ankle was severely deformed, causing her feet to turn inward. When she walked normally, she had to use most of the instep of her foot to touch the ground.
Ni Kun held her ankle and did the same thing, releasing thunder energy to probe the condition of her ankle injury.
The electric current in her feet stimulated Lian Xing even more than before, causing her face to turn red, her earlobes and neck to turn red, and her body to tremble uncontrollably. She couldn't help but let out a sweet hum from her nose.
Ni Kun seemed unaware of anything and was only focused on finding out how badly she was injured.
After a while, he understood her injury clearly and did the same thing again. He first used the thunder essence to seal the acupoints and paralyze the tendons, then broke her ankle and used the power of thunder to dissolve the excess bone. Then he mobilized the power of thunder essence, wood spirit and water spirit to set the bone.
When Ni Kun used his five fingers to touch her ankles and melt her bones with the power of thunder, Lian Xing's whole body trembled continuously. She couldn't help but raise her neck, and from time to time, she let out a sweet hum from her nose. Her eyes were also sparkling, as if water was about to drip out.
Ni Kun had a heart of a doctor and ignored all other matters, focusing only on healing her wounds.
After half an hour, her ankle was corrected.
At this point, the twisted and deformed disabilities of Lianxing's left hand and left foot have completely disappeared, the bones of her hands and feet have been reconnected, and her appearance has returned to normal.
However, the meridians and acupoints are not yet back in place. If the true Qi is stimulated and reaches the wrists and ankles, the true Qi will be disordered. At the very least, it will cause backlash and injuries, while at the worst, it will cause possession and hemiplegia.
But since Ni Kun dared to guarantee that he could cure Lian Xing's injuries, how could he not be fully prepared?
He took out a blood bodhi and handed it to Lian Xing, saying with a smile: "Take this and your injuries will be healed."
He originally wanted Lianxing to take it and swallow it herself, but Lianxing's hands and feet were weak at this time, and it seemed that she didn't even have the strength to raise her hands.
Ni Kun smiled and handed the blood bodhi to her lips. Lian Xing's bright eyes, which seemed to be dripping with water, finally did not avoid Ni Kun's sight this time. She looked at Ni Kun without blinking, slightly opened her red lips and swallowed the blood bodhi.
In a short while, she felt that the meridian points on her left hand and left foot returned to their original positions under the guidance of the powerful spiritual power, and all the hidden dangers were eliminated.
Ni Kun held her soft, boneless, delicate feet for a while, then held her slender hand again and nodded:
"Very good, the tendons and acupoints are now intact. Congratulations, Palace Master, the old illness is gone."
Lian Xing wanted to stand up to express her gratitude, but when Ni Kun released her hand, she collapsed weakly against the back of the chair, unable to get up.
Ni Kun didn't laugh at her, he just said: "The Palace Master looks very tired, I will take my leave first."
After saying that, he stood up and left.
Lian Xing half-propped herself up and looked at Ni Kun's departing back. Her heart was beating fast and she was filled with annoyance. She wanted to ask him to stay, but she didn't know why she wanted him to stay. She could only stare at his back and watch him push the door and leave.
After Ni Kun left, Lian Xing collapsed weakly on the chair again, raised her hands to cover her cheeks, and groaned:
“How shameful…”
