I’ve finally returned to normal!
There was nothing blocking his body anymore. His skills were still there but there were now a lot of entries in his battlelog.
However, Wei Xiao Bei did not even have a chance to look at his status panel. The reason was simple. Shi Yan Ming grabbed Wei Xiao Bei with a painful expression, “What should I do? What should I do? The Diamond Sutra in your hand combusted into ashes! Amitabha Buddha! If the head finds out, this poor monk would be extremely miserable!”
However, Wei Xiaobei couldn’t follow the description of the battle at this time. The reason is very simple. Shi Yanming looked bitterly and grabbed Wei Xiaobei. Amitabha! If the head of the hospital knew, the poor monk would be miserable! ”
What?
The Diamond Sutra combusted?
Wei Xiao Bei stared, completely stunned.
F***!
It’s really gone!
The Diamond Sutra is truly gone!
Only ashes were left in his hands. From the form of the ashes, it did indeed look like the Diamond Sutra.
The Diamond Sutra burnt to nothing in my hands?
In that instant, Wei Xiao Bei understood the meaning and questions in it.
I really can’t explain this!
Even if he took the ashes to them, those palace heads would definitely not believe that it had combusted by itself. They would only believe that he stole the book…
Okay, I should stop being amused at the situation.
Wei Xiao Bei pondered a bit and sighed. He patted Shi Yan Ming’s shoulders and comforted, “No problem, just hand it over to me. If there are any problems, just have them find me.”
Shi Yan Ming opened his eyes and exasperatedly undermined him, “This is something that you did. Do you still have the nerve to push it onto this poor monk?”
Wei Xiao Bei smiled and Shi Yan Ming couldn’t help but smile as well.
It could be said that humans have four main types of friends: classmates, comrade-in-arms, accomplices, and people who go whoring together.
Although Wei Xiao Bei and Shi Yan Ming had none of them, because of what had happened to the Diamond Sutra, the two of them could not get away anymore. Even if Wei Xiao Bei came out and admitted it, Shi Yan Ming would not be able to get off scot-free.
Thus, the most important thing to do right then was not to avoid responsibility, but decide how to safely deal with the matter.
Moreover, the fact that Wei Xiao Bei dared to take responsibility made Shi Yan Ming look at him in a new light. Just like that, the relationship between the two grew a lot closer.
“It’s best to confess to the palace head.”
Shi Yan Ming said this and prepared to go down.
Wei Xiao Bei pulled back Shi Yan ming, “Don’t rush. I still have two days.”
Saying this, Wei Xiao Bei took another book from the shelves.
Seeing his actions, Shi Yan Ming’s eyes widened with an expression of disbelief.
“Okay old chap, you just destroyed the Diamond Sutra and now you want to destroy another book? What exactly do you want to do!!!”
“Do you even know the price of the Diamond Sutra that you just destroyed?”
“There is only one copy in the entire world! Maybe that was a bit exaggerated, but even if there were hundreds in the world, that was the only copy in the Shaolin Temple!”
Wei Xiao Bei ignored Shi Yan Ming’s prattling. He looked at another Buddhist text while paying attention to his status panel.
Battlelog:
….
The host has received the effect of the miraculous power of Buddha and entered the dream world, entering the body of Shariputra.
….
The host has come into contact with Shakyamuni, contact with Upali, contact with Mahākāśyapa, contact with Subhuti.
….
The host has received cleansing by Buddhist power.
….
Endurance increased, learning increased, reasoning increased, willpower increased, intuition increased, persuasion increased, character increased.
….
The host has received Seed of Buddhism.
….
After looking at the battlelog, Wei Xiao Bei immediately checked his status panel.
His endurance increased from 62.1 to 64.1, reasoning, willpower, and learning increased from 42.1 to 47.1, intuition increased from 40 to 50, persuasion and character both increased directly to 40.
For such an attribute increase, Wei Xiao Bei could only say, “What a cheat!”
This was indeed quite a cheat.
In terms of increasing his attributes, increasing under 20 points required 100 evolution points for 1 point, increasing between 20 to 40 points required 200 evolution points for 1 point, increasing between 40 to 60 required 400 evolution points for 1 point, and increasing above 60 required 1000 evolution points for 1 point.
In other words, his increase in endurance by 2 points was equivalent to 2000 evolution points.
On the other hand, his intuition, learning, reasoning, and willpower increase was also 2000 evolution points each. As for persuasion and character, the evolution points exceeded 3000 points each.
Just like that, the number of evolution points that were added to his attributes exceeded 16,000 points!
In truth, Wei Xiao Bei normally stored more than 10,000 evolution points, but increasing his attributes made this way was a bit painful. The majority of evolution points that he had gained were placed in either skills or his Life Altar’s foundational creatures.
Just this many evolution points already made Wei Xiao Bei feel as though the book self-combusting was not bad.
Eh?
Seed of Buddhism?
Where?
Wei Xiao Bei closed his eyes and relaxed as he sunk his consciousness into his body and took a look.
He took a look at his acupuncture points, blood channels, bones, and muscles.
For a long time, Wei Xiao Bei was a bit doubtful of the Seed of Buddhism as he could not find it at all.
Naturally, under common sense judgment, the Seed of Buddhism should’ve been in his Dantian or in his brain, but he did not find this Seed of Buddhism at all.
After searching once more, Wei Xiao Bei gave up his plans searching for it. He could only console himself that the time was not yet right and the opportunity had not yet come.
Thinking about this, Wei Xiao Bei could not help but smile. He was not even a senior monk yet nor had he read a lot of Buddhist texts.
Having said this, the Diamond Sutra had three hidden effects. Entering the dream world and receiving cleansing by Buddhist power was one of them. As for the second and third effects, Wei Xiao Bei could not find the answer even if he activated all his abilities.
If he couldn’t figure it out, then he would stop thinking about it. Wei Xiao Bei moved his attention to the Buddhist text in his hands.
The book was the Amithaba Sutra.
Activate Enlightenment!
Name: Amitabha Sutra (Normal)
Description: This object is a reprinted translation by Kumarajiva. This sutra is also known as the Shorter Sukhāvatīvyūha Sūtra. Together with the Longer Sukhāvatīvyūha Sūtra and the Amitāyurdhyāna Sūtra, these books are called the three sutras of the Pure Land. The main contents consist of Buddha describing the Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss or Sukhavati to his major disciples, Bodhisattvas, and many other disciples. He described the world and the special scenery. He also described it as the land of extreme happiness or Amitabha.
….
The normal reprint did not have any effects and was only a normal antique.
Wei Xiao Bei regretfully placed back the Amitabha Sutra and pulled out another book. The book was titled The Buddhabhasita Dasabhadra Karmamarga Sutra. As he took a look at it, he saw that it was only a normal quality item with no effects.
In the next few hours, Wei Xiao Bei took a look at all the Buddhist texts in the third floor once. Among them, there were a lot of them that were just different versions from the original.
After looking at the Buddhist texts, Wei Xiao Bei could not help but sigh in regret. The miraculous event that happened with the Diamond Sutra did not happen again.
Seeing Wei Xiao Bei sigh and that there were no more Buddhist texts that self-combusted, Shi Yan Ming who was very scared finally let out a relaxed sigh. He unhappily looked at Wei Xiao Bei, “What? You heaved a sigh when nothing bad happened, are you trying to deliberately give this poor monk a hard time?”
“Don’t dare, don’t dare. Brother Yan Ming, what should we do next?”
Wei Xiao Bei blinked and asked.
…
Shi Yan Ming was speechless. He had sorted his emotions for half the day yet hadn’t thought of a plan.
In truth, if he had the confidence to win against Wei Xiao Bei, he would have immediately made his move.
Seeing Shi Yan Ming’s flustered expression, Wei Xiao Bei had no choice but to brace himself, “Let me handle this matter. I will definitely help you deal with this matter.”
“Deal with this matter? How?”
Shi Yan Ming was not counting on Wei Xiao Bei to fix this matter at all. He only thought that if he confessed, the palace head would give a lighter punishment and not have him face the wall for 30 years.
It was said that Shi Yan Ming’s predecessor had accidentally damaged the Samghārāma Sutra, and as a result, he was still facing the wall.
After imagining the terrifying scene of having no computer, Shi Yan Ming wanted to go crazy.
“I promise to handle it perfectly.”
Before Wei Xiao Bei finished his words, he had already poked Shi Yan Ming’s back.
Shi Yan Ming felt his back go numb. He immediately lost consciousness and fainted.
Shaolin 32 pressure point technique!
This was one of the martial arts Wei Xiao Bei saw on the second floor of the Sutra Depository Pavillion.
Although the martial arts that Wei Xiao Bei remembered in his brain couldn’t be turned to skills, after having reached the level of Cosmic Jing, he was immediately able to reach the level of perfection in using them, after looking once. At the very least, he was able to reach 70-80% of the form, 30-40% of the spirit. If he had more time, then learning them fully was not a problem.
Seeing Shi Yan Ming faint, Wei Xiao Bei couldn’t help but smile.
A modest display of a master.
It must be said that the martial art that he performed was a top martial art.
Even the book had stated clearly that once this martial art was learned to a certain level, a person did not need to more to kill their opponent.
Naturally, Wei Xiao Bei was satisfied with his own move.
What he did was only block two of Shi Yan Ming’s blood channels, causing the other party to not have enough blood supply throughout the body. After the body becomes numb, the target would faint. The only damage the target would feel would be dizziness after waking up.
Afterward, Wei Xiao Bei picked up Shi Yan Ming and closed the steel doors of the third floor properly and walked downstairs.
Every floor that he reached, the monks were dumbfounded at seeing Wei Xiao Bei carry Shi Yan Ming.
Whether or not they recognized Wei Xiao Bei, the first thing that came to their mind was, how Shi Yan Ming offended this Guo Shu Great Scholar.
