Please read, IMPORTANT: We got struck by a storm, we’re in the path of the eye. Our city got wrecked. No electricity, no signal at our place. This is why I didn’t update for a week. This will continue up to next month. Who knows how long it will take to fix since so many electric poles got knocked down.

Anyways, enough with the sad news, here’s a Christmas chapter for you!

Chapter 260: Poor Monk Zhen Guan Comes To Worship!

Edited by: Mochiusagi

Shaolin Temple.

Su Qin broke the drop of Wood Spirit Liquid and divided it into millions. He then combined it to the clouds and let it shower the disciples in the form of rain.

The vitality in the Wood Spirit Liquid was useless for Su Qin, but the same cannot be true for the disciples. To them, it was no different from an immortal pill or a miraculous medicine. The disciples, who had bathed in the rain, felt their Essence, Qi and Spirit improve. They felt stronger.

In the next period of time, Su Qin ignored the praises of the disciples and instead looked at the array that covered the Back Mountain Forbidden Area.

Su Qin set up the array when he was in the 3rd Heavenly Layer, and now it was almost completely broken by the 9th Ancestor. Even though it could still gather vitality, it was not as good as before.

“I’ll need to set it up again.”

Su Qin stroked his chin and thought in his heart.

Since he left the Shaolin Temple, he had obtained many new arrays. Not to mention that Su Qin’s comprehension had also significantly increased. With some adjustments, he could make an array 3 to 5 times more effective.

Su Qin raised his right hand and light spots began to appear. Almost instantly, the entire Back Mountain Forbidden Area was once again shrouded in clouds.

“Nine large arrays have been set.”

Su Qin thought to himself.

With his current strength, if the 9th Ancestor wanted to break in again, it would not be easy.

Even if it couldn’t completely block the 9th Ancestor, it would at least hold back the 9th Ancestor for half a day.

With Su Qin’s speed, half a day was more than enough to cross the continent a few times.

About half a day later.

Su Qin raised his head and looked towards the direction of Western Desert, thinking to himself: “He stopped moving? Did he arrive at the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall?”

For most of the day, Su Qin did not only treat the disciples and set up the array, but he also paid attention to the whereabouts of the 9th Ancestor.

With the [Eyes of Truth], after the 9th Ancestor left the Shaolin Temple, all of his whereabouts were made visible under Su Qin’s eyes.

But now, Su Qin has discovered that the 9th Ancestor had been staying in one place for more than an hour.

Only the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall could make the 9th Ancestor stay put in place for so long.

“Guess I’m going to the Western Desert…”

Su Qin made a decision in his heart, turned his head, looking at Abbot Hui Wen and the Court Heads standing beside him. He indifferently said: “I’m going to the Western Desert.”

“The Western Desert?”

Abbot Hui Wen and the Court Heads looked at each other in blank dismay. Finally, Abbot Hui Wen cautiously asked: “Venerable, what are you going to do in the Western Desert?”

“I’ll be visiting the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall…”

Su Qin took a step forward and disappeared from the Shaolin Temple.

Abbot Hui Wen and the Court Heads then heard Su Qin’s next sentence soon after: “I want an explanation from them…”

• ווו

In the depths of the Western Desert.

In the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall.

At this moment, three figures were sitting cross-legged in a triangular seating in the Great Hall. The auras of these figures were profound and extremely powerful.

In the leftmost corner of the Great Hall, the 9th Ancestor was sitting right up and looking at the other two figures, saying solemnly:

“6th Ancestor, 7th Ancestor, I have something to say.”

“The battlefield is indeed an extremely dangerous place. Not only there’s the Legend of Chang’an City that could kill a Peak Legend like Ancestor Chi Yuan, the Venerable of the Shaolin Temple is not any weaker…”

When the 9th Ancestor came back and saw that the 6th and 7th Ancestors were here, he immediately told them his experience in the Shaolin Temple.

“The battlefield is really interesting.”

“How many years has it been since the vitality started recovering? Isn’t it a bit unreasonable that such powerhouses would appear?”

The 6th Ancestor was an old monk with a benevolent look. At this moment, he slowly asked, with a hint of curiosity in his tone.

“I think so too.”

The 9th Ancestor smiled bitterly. He didn’t believe that the Shaolin Temple’s Venerable was a Peak Legend and confirming it himself was quite a shock.

Not only Su Qin was a Peak Legend, among Peak Legends, he was definitely considered a powerhouse.

“How strong do you think the Shaolin Temple’s Venerable is?” At this moment, the 7th Ancestor, who had not spoken until now, asked.

The 9th Ancestor had just mentioned that after he fought Su Qin, he immediately moved away from the latter using the [Divine Steps Escape Technique]. As for the details of the fight, he didn’t mention much.

“How strong?”

The 9th Ancestor was silent for a while, before he raised his right hand and showed the Buddhist beads on his wrist.

“I attacked with this treasure to fight against the Shaolin Temple’s Venerable, but he just repelled it with his bare hands…”

As soon as the 9th Ancestor said this, both the 6th and 7th Ancestor’s pupils shrank sharply.

Su Qin repelling just the 9th Ancestor and him repelling the 9th Ancestor with the Buddhist beads were two completely different concepts.

Although the 9th Ancestor was a Peak Arhat, he had yet to transform his Divine Sense into Primordial Spirit. In addition, due to the decline of his qi and blood, his strength was no longer the same as when he was at his Peak. Hence it was understandable for him to lose against a young powerhouse of the same level. This did not mean that the 9th Ancestor was inferior to Su Qin.

However, the 9th Ancestor used the Buddhist beads. Using it increased the strength of the user by several levels. In this case, Su Qin repelling it was simply shocking.

“More than that…”

The 9th Ancestor shook slightly his head and poured True Essence into the Buddhist beads. The beads then grew rapidly.

At this time, the 6th Ancestor and the 7th Ancestor finally noticed the shallow fist mark on one of the beads.

“This is?!”

The 6th and 7th Ancestor’s faces greatly changed.

Their foresight was greater than the 9th Ancestor. Of course they knew what the fist mark on the bead meant.

“Is it possible that the Shaolin Temple’s Venerable has condensed his Primordial Spirit?” The 7th Ancestors facial expression was grave.

The Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall didn’t care about ordinary Peak Legends, but they do pay great attention to Peak Legends with Primordial Spirits.

In the era where there were no Earth Immortals, once a Peak Legend had condensed a Primordial Spirit, it meant invincibility.

The strength of the Primordial Spirit was extremely mysterious and abstruse, far more than the Divine Sense.

Once the Primordial Spirit was formed, the Martial Artist had not only escaped the shackles of his body, but he could also rely on his Primordial Spirit to forever exist in the world.

Generally, Martial Artists, even those at Peak Legend, once their body gets destroyed, the Divine Sense won’t survive for long, unless they use some technique to preserve their Divine Sense. Without the housing of the body, the Divine Sense will visibly disappear at the speed of the naked eye.

But the Primordial Spirit was different.

Although the Primordial Spirit still needed to be housed with a body, in a sense, it had already gotten rid of the restrictions of the body.

Those with a Primordial Spirit, even if they lose their body, they could rely on the strength of their Primordial Spirit to maintain most of their battle strength, instead of worrying about their qi and blood; like the 9th, 6th and 7th Ancestors.

“I didn’t feel the slightest aura of a Primordial Spirit from him.” The 9th Ancestor affirmed: “Furthermore, if the Shaolin Temple’s Venerable really formed his Primordial Spirit, I wouldn’t have been able to shake him off.”

When the 7th Ancestor heard this, his expression eased down a bit. He carefully looked at the shallow fist mark on the bead and frowned: “If he does not have a Primordial Spirit yet, then this fist mark could only mean that his body is just that strong.”

“Such a terrifying body should be close to the Dharma Body of a Great Arhat!”

The 7th Ancestor exclaimed.

Without the unpredictable strength of a Primordial Spirit, he wouldn’t have been able to leave a mark. Unless Su Qin’s body reached was equal to that of an Earth Immortal.

“It’s only a fist mark, it did not affect the root of the Buddhist beads. It will recover after hundreds of years of Cultivation.”

The 6th Ancestor slowly said.

As a treasure left by a Great Arhat, it was very compatible with the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall’s techniques, and it can be restored with the help of the many Venerables in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall.

“I don’t care about the Buddhist beads.”

The 9th Ancestor put away the Buddhist beads and shook his head: “I am worried about the Shaolin Temple’s Venerable using this as a reason to come to the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall Hall for trouble…”

“Trouble with the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall?” The 6th Ancestor hearing this, chuckled: “You worry too much, how long has the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall existed? If he can make trouble here so casually, how dare we?”

“Not bad.”

The 7th Ancestor nodded slightly, with a very relaxed expression: “Before the 6th Ancestor and I came this time, we brought the All Souls Buddha Lamp.”

“All Souls Buddha Lamp?”

The 9th Ancestor was slightly surprised.

The origin of the All Souls Buddha Lamp was extremely mysterious. It was said that it was made by a Great Arhat using blood refinement.

The All Souls Buddha Lamp had only one function.

Defense.

When the All Souls Buddha Lamp burns (turn on), it will release numerous barriers and block all attacks.

Thousands of years ago, the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall forcibly blocked an Earth Immortal’s blow using the All Souls Buddha Lamp.

Of course, after one blow, the wick of the lamp was completely burned out, and to this day, it still has not fully recovered.

But no matter what, the All Souls Buddha Lamp has completely shocked the Martial Arts World overseas since then.

“Look.”

The 7th Ancestor raised his right hand and the All Souls Buddha Lamp appeared in front of him.

The All Souls Buddha Lamp lit up and the wick burned slowly, releasing some warmth.

“With the All Souls Buddha Lamp, although it would be nice if the Shaolin Temple’s Venerable did not come, but even if he really did come, we have means to make him suffer.”

A smile appeared on the face of the 6th Ancestor, as he indifferently said.

With the All Souls Buddha Lamp guarding the place, and with the three of them, all being Peak Arhats, the 6th Ancestor really can’t think of any unexpected possibility.

“The All Souls Buddha Lamp… Since this is the case, I’m relieved…” The 9th Ancestor nodded.

Even if he personally saw the power of Su Qin, he didn’t think that the other party could punch through the All Souls Buddha Lamp.

“You just think too much.” The 6th Ancestor looked at the 9th Ancestor and slowly said: “The Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall have been standing overseas for thousands of years. What winds and waves have it not experienced? The once enemies of it, have now died because they ran out of lifespan.”

“Only the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall still exists and has prospered for generations.”

“Even though the Shaolin Temple’s Venerable might be powerful, how could he compare with the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall’s eternal glory?”

Although the 6th Ancestor’s voice was soft, it kept resounding in the ears of the 9th and 7th Ancestor.

“If there is an opportunity, I would like the Shaolin Temple’s Venerable to personally feel the power of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall…”

Before the 6th ancestor finished speaking, him, the 7th and 9th Ancestor, as well as the other disciples in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall, suddenly felt throbbing and uneasy in their hearts.

“What is it?”

The 6th Ancestor disappeared and appeared outside the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall. The 7th and 9th Ancestors followed closely from behind. All three of them raised their heads and looked forward together.

[Dong~]!

[Dong~]!

[Dong~]!

A meteor seemed to have been falling from the sky. A terrifying force descended and almost broke the earth.

The 6th Ancestor looked dignified, as he stared closely in front.

The Western Desert’s sky was covered with yellow sand. After it settled, the yellow sand rippled and began spreading in circles, forming a channel to the outside world.

A hundred miles of yellow sand covered the sky and sun.

“That is?!”

The 6th Ancestor looked solemn, as he stared at a distance.

At the end of this tunnel-like channel made up of yellow sand, was a man with a deep aura, casually walking through it.

Every step the man took, he would cross hundreds of miles.

In just a moment, the man had arrived in front of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall. With deep eyes, he looked at the people in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall and indifferently said:

“This poor monk called Zhen Guan has come to worship!”
