Chapter 399: The Truth about the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall
The divine undertaker.
Lao Shi’s words made Lin Ye fall into deep thought.
From the images he had seen, the Third Pawn Shop really did look a bit like The Undertaker.
"You saw the guy from the third pawnshop took out three kinds of paper. If I'm not mistaken, those are funeral papers that are only available in the third pawnshop."
"Like the Taoist priests, there are several rituals for burying a dead person, including calling back the soul, comforting the soul, and sending off the soul."
Requiem means allowing the soul of the dead to return to the body.
To comfort the soul is to keep it stable so that there will not be any phenomenon like resurrection of the dead.
As for sending the soul, it means sending the soul to the underworld.
According to Lao Shi, the Third Pawnshop acts as the undertaker of the gods. When a god dies, it will appear and send the god to the pawnshop.
"The third pawnshop leads directly to the underworld and reincarnation."
"But the Third Pawnshop doesn't treat every god like this. The Third Pawnshop acts as a funeral chaperone for gods. It only chaperones gods that have done business with the pawnshop after their death."
"trade?"
Lin Ye was not surprised about the transaction at the third pawnshop. When he met Bai Jinye, Bai Jinye had already traded with several of them.
However, the people that Bai Jinye traded with were all ordinary people.
He was a little confused at the time. What could he get from trading with ordinary people? What was the point of having ordinary souls?
"The rule of the Third Pawn Shop is that as long as you propose a deal and are willing to pay a price, you can make a deal, from gods to ordinary people and even plants and trees."
"What can those gods trade with a pawnshop?"
Lin Ye was a little curious. Gods were already at the top, so what could a pawn shop give to gods?
"The Third Pawnshop is very mysterious. The word 'three' explains everything." Lao Shi said meaningfully, and then continued: "The only two eternal gods known to everyone are Daozu and Buddha. Why do you think the Third Pawnshop got the word 'three'?"
"The person behind the third pawnshop is as powerful as the Eternal God, or the number one person under the Eternal God?" Lin Ye asked after pondering for a moment.
"I don't know, maybe." Lao Shi's tone was not 100% certain: "But it is definitely far superior to ordinary gods."
Lin Ye did not continue the conversation on this topic, as it was still a bit far from him.
"What's that Buddha? Who is that Buddha you're talking about?"
In comparison, Lin Ye was more curious about which Buddha's body Lao Shi was talking about.
"The last Buddha corpse you saw is also the Buddha of this world." This time, Lao Shi did not keep Lin Ye in suspense and directly gave Lin Ye the answer he wanted to know.
Lin Ye didn't look too surprised, because he had already guessed it.
It was the beginning of the Buddhist scripture, and the Buddha's body appeared in front of him, and it made Bai Jinye feel so painful, so it must be not an ordinary Buddha.
Combined with some information revealed by Lao Shi before, Lin Ye already had the answer in his mind, he just needed to confirm it from Lao Shi.
"I want to know about that person's background?"
"That person is the last Buddha in the real world, and also the Buddha before the Dharma Ending Age comes."
This time, Lao Shi did not hide anything, but told Lin Ye in detail about this person's origin.
This Buddha was quite special. Before joining Buddhism, he was also a disciple of Taoism. Like Lin Ye, he practiced both Taoism and Buddhism, and was known as the number one prodigy among the Taoist prodigies at that time.
At the age of only thirty, he had cultivated to the Yuanshen realm. One must know that it was close to the Dharma Ending Age, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth had gradually become thinner.
Being able to cultivate to the Yuanshen realm at the age of 30 in that era, one can imagine his talent, and he surpassed all the geniuses of Taoism at that time.
Later, after he entered the realm of Yuanshen, for some unknown reason he chose to convert to Buddhism.
At the time, it caused a huge sensation, and even many powerful people from the Taoist sect went to the Buddhist sect to question him, fearing that this person was forced by the Buddhist sect.
However, after this person appeared, he told the Taoist masters that he had joined Buddhism voluntarily. He felt the grandeur of Buddhism and suddenly woke up. The Taoist masters had no choice but to give up.
After joining Buddhism, he practiced hard in the temple. After a long time, he was forgotten by Taoism and Buddhism. There were even many people who secretly laughed at him and thought he had chosen the wrong path.
If he had continued on the Taoist path of cultivation, he might have entered the realm of virtual god long ago. But now he has become a disciple of Buddhism, and his cultivation has stagnated. The geniuses who were originally suppressed by him are now much stronger than him.
A hundred years had passed, and the cultivation world had completely forgotten about this person. Even if a few people mentioned him, they were filled with sighs.
It was not until one hundred and fifty years later, on the birthday of Buddha, that this person appeared before the world again and made a stunning debut.
With the strength of the Golden Body Realm, he was able to fight on equal terms with the powerful Buddhists in the Void God Realm. This had already shocked the entire Buddhist community, but that was not enough. On the Buddha's birthday, he actually became a Buddha on the spot and entered the realm of divinity.
In Buddhism, a new Buddha appeared. Naturally, this news shocked the entire spiritual community.
"This person has a good relationship with the God of Helan Mountain. After becoming a Buddha, he once came to Helan Mountain and had a conversation with the God of Helan Mountain. According to this person, the reason why he converted to Buddhism was because of the transaction with the third pawnshop."
Seeing Lin Ye's thoughtful expression, Lao Shi continued, "The request he made to the Third Pawnshop was not made clear at the time, but now it seems that it should be related to this return to the other world."
Lin Ye was silent. He knew very well where Lao Shi's speculation came from. It was because of the scene he saw.
It is very likely that this is the agreement reached between the man and Bai Jinye, and as long as the Third Pawnshop reaches an agreement, it must not breach the contract. This applies not only to the traders, but also to the Third Pawnshop.
However, Lin Ye was curious about why the Third Pawnshop made such a request. What benefits would it bring to the Third Pawnshop if he converted to Buddhism?
"You can only get the answer by asking the person in the third pawnshop." Lao Shi replied.
"Then do you think this person came back to another world to be reincarnated and practice again?"
"It should be a reincarnation that retains its memories, otherwise it would be impossible for it to become the Buddha of this world."
Lin Ye also agreed with Lao Shi's judgment. Since this person became the Buddha of this world, it meant that there was no Buddhism in this world before this person, so he must have reincarnated with his memories.
It seems that the third pawnshop has a deep connection with the underworld.
"As for the halberd you saw, to be honest, I don't know what it is, but the mountain god of Helan Mountain once mentioned that gods are not invincible. To some extent, becoming a god means the arrival of danger."
There was a hint of reminiscence in Lao Shi's tone. When he was still a stone, with just the beginning of his spiritual wisdom, the mountain god of Helan Mountain and the Buddhist monk sat on him and talked.
These were the words he heard at that time.
It was simply because his intelligence had not yet fully developed at that time, and some of the chat content was missing and he could not remember it.
Many times, the secrets he told Lin Ye were actually overheard in this way. Of course, Lao Shi himself would not tell the truth.
He still has to save face in front of Lin Ye.
"After all, you haven't given me any useful information. It's all your guesses and judgments. I can just find someone to talk nonsense to."
Although there is already a lot of useful information from Lao Shi's words, Lin Ye will not say so. Lao Shi must have a lot of secrets that he has not revealed.
Provoked by Lin Ye, Lao Shi snorted coldly: "Although I know you are trying to provoke me, I will still be provoked by you this time. You mentioned the white mist. If I am not mistaken, there will be a corpse of a god under the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall you mentioned."
"It just so happens that I have set a goal for you to kill a god. Although it is a corpse of a god, if you can get close, it will be considered half of the goal completed."
Killing gods.
This is the goal that Lao Shi set for Lin Ye.
"Is there a corpse of a god under the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall?"
There was a look of surprise on Lin Ye's face. He went to the bottom of the cliff but found nothing.
"If the corpse of a god can be found so easily, then the Zhenwu Temple would have discovered it long ago. Anyway, take me with you. I naturally have a way. If you treat the gods as ordinary people, then this white mist is actually equivalent to the corpse gas produced after a person dies. The difference is that this is the corpse of a god."
The white mist is the corpse gas born from the body of a god after his death.
His City God Seal can absorb the white mist. If it is corpse qi, no matter it is the corpse of a god or an ordinary person, it should be something from the underworld.
The Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall.
Lin Ye nodded. Even if there was no corpse of any god, he would still go to the Zhenwu Temple again. There were many magical things about the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall.
…
…
Qingzhou!
Zhenwu Hall.
"Steal a little time to relax from busy life."
Xu Liben was drinking tea leisurely at the back of the main hall of Zhenwu Temple.
As the master of Zhenwu Hall, he naturally has a lot of things to do, and he is supervised by the Grand Master. Even as the master, his life is not so comfortable.
But Xu Liben has lived a very comfortable life in recent years, and the reason is because of his original decision.
He let Lin Ye go to the bottom of the cliff to observe the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall, and finally appointed Lin Ye as the elder of their Zhenwu Hall.
You have to know that when he made this decision, many elders opposed it. He made the decision against all odds, and facts have proved that his decision was correct.
Lin Ye broke through to the level of Martial Saint.
No matter what, Lin Ye observed the Zhenwu Transmission Wall and was an elder of their Zhenwu Hall. Now that he has become a Martial Saint, the Zhenwu Hall is also proud of him.
Their Zhenwu Palace was originally the largest martial arts sect in Qingzhou, but now there are two Martial Saints in charge of the Zhenwu Palace. It is no longer just the number one martial arts sect in Qingzhou, but is also among the top five in the entire world.
Xu Liben poured himself a cup of tea, but the cup was not full yet. Suddenly, he saw the figure sitting opposite him. His hand shook and a lot of tea spilled out.
"Master Xu is so elegant, brewing tea and drinking tea by himself here. I wonder if I can enjoy a cup."
"It is my honor that Elder Lin is willing to drink the wine I brewed."
Xu Liben looked at the man opposite him, who was naturally Lin Ye.
After leaving Candeng Temple in Huzhou, Lin Ye headed straight for Qingzhou without disturbing ordinary disciples from the mountain gate. His spiritual sense detected where Xu Liben was, so he came here directly.
Originally, according to Lao Shi's words, they would go directly to the bottom of the cliff, but Lin Ye thought about it and decided to say hello to Zhenwu Temple.
He is now considered an elder of the Zhenwu Temple, and there is no way that the Zhenwu Temple could stop him from going down the cliff.
Originally, Lin Ye was planning to greet the Martial Saint in Zhenwu Palace, but when he scanned with his spiritual sense, he did not detect any aura of the Martial Saint.
Either the Martial Saint is not on the mountain, or he is in deep seclusion, isolating himself from all aura.
"Elder Lin, you came to the temple for something, right?" After making a cup of tea, Xu Liben looked at Lin Ye with a smile. He knew that Lin Ye was an elder in name only and generally would not interfere in the affairs of the Zhenwu Temple and would not come here unless there was something wrong.
"I plan to go to the next cliff and observe the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall again."
Xu Liben was not surprised to hear Lin Ye's words. The only thing in the entire Zhenwu Palace that Lin Ye was concerned about was the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall.
"Elder Lin, as long as you can stop the clouds and mist, you can go down anytime."
"good."
Lin Ye nodded, drank a few cups of tea with Xu Liben, and then said goodbye. When he appeared again, he was already on the edge of the cliff.
"That's right, it's this white fog. I don't know how you managed to resist it. Even a strong man in the Void God Realm would not dare to be distracted by this corpse aura of the gods."
Lao Shi muttered something, but soon he knew it.
Seeing the black lotus platform appear under Lin Ye's feet, automatically absorbing the clouds and mist, Lao Shi smacked his lips and asked, "What kind of treasure is this?"
After the City God Seal was refined by Lin Ye, it had already merged with the Golden Body Lotus Altar. If you just look at the appearance, you can't tell that this is the City God Seal.
"Little Lin, it seems that you have a lot of opportunities. You can even absorb the corpse qi of gods. This treasure must be extraordinary."
Lin Ye did not answer Lao Shi.
When his body fell to the bottom of the cliff, Lin Ye looked around and asked, "Where is the body of the god?"
"Where is it? You're still asking me. Are you blind?"
Obviously because Lin Ye had ignored Lao Shi before, Lao Shi's tone was full of sarcasm.
"Well……"
Lin Ye frowned. Although Lao Shi said this in retaliation for his previous actions, his words must have a hidden meaning.
Thinking of this, Lin Ye looked around again, and after a while, his gaze fell on the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall in front of him.
"Lao Shi, don't tell me..."
"No, not stupid, it's just what you think."
Being interrupted by Lao Shi, Lin Ye's pupils shrank rapidly, and the look he gave towards the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall changed.
The most eye-catching place at the bottom of the entire cliff is the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall.
But the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall is actually the corpse of a god?
"Do you think it's impossible?" Lao Shi snorted and said, "The power of the gods is beyond your imagination, and the magic of the god's corpse is naturally beyond your imagination."
