Chapter 182 Immortals Destroy Buddhas?
Inside the room at this moment.
Li Jun stood aside, watching as President Qin and Daoist Xuanming's expressions shifted from excitement to bewilderment, from bewilderment to realization, and from realization to awe...
He knew that expression all too well.
Every time I imagine the Night's Watch, this is how it looks.
Li Jun felt helpless.
Everything he said before was true.
The statue really looks like an ordinary object.
Because after the carving was completed yesterday, the power within the statue gradually subsided.
Even he can only sense subtle energy fluctuations within the statue now.
As for the use of that fluctuation...
He doesn't know yet.
But judging from the way President Qin and Daoist Xuanming looked, they had clearly come up with some outrageous conclusions.
Li Jun was too lazy to explain.
It's hard to explain.
The more you explain, the more complicated it becomes.
"Jin Hao".
He began to speak.
Jin Hao was holding the statue, looking it over from left to right, when he heard this and looked up.
"what?"
"Go and put the statue in the box and pack it up."
Jin Hao was stunned for a moment.
"Shall we install it now?"
Li Jun nodded.
"Okay, put it in my room after it's installed."
Jin Hao responded and walked out, carrying the statue.
After he left, Li Jun invited President Qin and Daoist Xuanming to sit down.
"President Qin, Senior Xuanming."
Li Jun looked at the two of them, his tone calm.
"May I ask what brings you two here today?"
President Qin and Daoist Xuanming exchanged a glance.
Now we're finally getting down to business.
President Qin took a deep breath and organized his thoughts.
Then, he recounted everything that had happened in the past two days.
It started when energy fluctuations appeared in Luxian County.
The monitoring department discovered the homologous reaction in Tiantai Mountain.
He and Daoist Xuanming personally went to Tiantai Mountain.
They discovered the stone slab engraved with Buddhist sealing runes.
The horrific scene of mountains of corpses and seas of blood in the secret realm.
To that desecrated Buddha statue.
……
Get to those two lines of text.
A tribulation upon a tribulation.
Supernatural powers cannot overcome destiny.
Finally, President Qin placed the wooden box containing the lotus flowers on the table, then took the bamboo tube from Master Xuanming and placed it in front of Li Jun.
"Master, these are the things we brought out from the secret realm."
"We suspect that those two piles of ashes may very well be the remains of the two eminent monks, Hanshan and Shide."
"These two items should also have been left behind by them."
Li Jun listened quietly.
His face was expressionless.
But the hands behind his back clenched involuntarily.
When he heard the words "the silence of Buddhism" and "the great changes a thousand years ago," his heart was already filled with turmoil.
These findings matched the guesses left behind by the advisor.
The reason for the decline of Buddhism is very likely the pair of hands that, as the advisor suspected, propelled the arrival of the Dharma-ending Age...
The invisible hand.
Li Jun's heart was beating very fast.
Even though he had gotten used to putting on a calm facade, he almost broke down at this moment.
According to the myths and legends he knew, Buddhism was at its peak in the early Tang Dynasty.
Even setting aside the numerous Bodhisattvas, Arhats, and Dharma protectors, just considering the Buddha...
There's more than one!
Such a powerful force suddenly fell silent at the height of its power.
The tradition has been broken.
The believers are fanatical.
They even went so far as to desecrate Buddha statues and kill each other...
A terrifying thought surfaced in Li Jun's mind.
Could it be a battle between immortals and Buddhas?
Immortals destroy Buddhas?
A lose-lose situation?
After all, since Buddhism fell into silence, although Taoism has survived, its connection with the celestial beings has been completely severed, and it receives no response.
After that, no one could become an immortal.
If it were merely the end of the Dharma, how could it be like this?
unless……
Those immortals and gods are all gone.
or……
They were trapped in a state of being unable to reach each other.
The more Li Jun thought about it, the more confused he felt.
This world, seemingly similar to yet different from my previous life, is incredibly complex.
Inside the room, President Qin and Daoist Xuanming dared not even breathe.
They secretly observed Li Jun's expression.
But Li Jun's face remained expressionless.
You can't tell if he's happy or angry.
There was no indication of any emotional fluctuation.
The two grew increasingly uneasy.
Master Li...
What are you thinking about?
Just then, Jin Hao walked in from outside.
As soon as he entered the room, he sensed that something was wrong.
President Qin and Daoist Xuanming sat there with solemn expressions.
The Taoist priest stood opposite him, motionless.
The air seemed to freeze.
Jin Hao paused for a moment, then asked in confusion:
"What's wrong?"
Li Jun came to his senses.
"fine."
He paused.
"Is it done?"
Jin Hao nodded.
"It's all set up. I guarantee there will be footage when I show it to Yin Jian."
Li Jun nodded.
Then, he looked at President Qin and Daoist Xuanming.
"I will shamelessly accept these two items."
Mr. Qin quickly replied, "Master, you flatter me. These things should have been delivered to you in the first place."
Li Jun did not respond.
He remained silent for a few seconds.
Then, he slowly opened his mouth.
"Regarding events from a thousand years ago..."
President Qin and Daoist Xuanming immediately perked up their ears.
"My advisor once discovered some clues while exploring a site in Lishan."
He believes that there is an invisible hand driving the end times.
"But what exactly it is, I don't know for the time being."
After hearing this, President Qin and Daoist Xuanming were deeply shocked.
Senior Xuanzhenzi...
Did they discover something decades ago?
And it's at Mount Li?
Mount Li.
These two words carry significant weight in the Taoist tradition and even in the mythology and legends of the entire Great Xia Dynasty.
If Senior Xuanzhenzi discovered something there...
President Qin's mind raced.
After a moment, he tentatively spoke.
"Thank you for the clue, Taoist priest."
"The Night Watch will next conduct explorations at Mount Li, searching for the ruins that Senior Xuanzhenzi entered back then."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Li Jun expectantly.
That look in his eyes clearly indicated that he was expecting something.
Li Jun felt helpless looking at him like this.
He could certainly tell what President Qin was expecting.
They simply wanted him to participate as well.
It just so happens that he also wants to visit the ruins that the clerk once visited.
First, we need to see if we can obtain the follow-up to the cultivation method we are currently practicing.
on the other hand……
He also wanted to confirm a suspicion he had in mind.
After all, the period a thousand years ago when the Great Xia Dynasty was shrouded in mist almost coincided with the time when a story he had known since childhood took place.
But that story doesn't exist in this world!
Li Jun nodded slightly.
"That's fine too."
"I hope that once the Night Watchmen find the remains, Mr. Qin will inform me."
"I am also very curious to know what clues are there there."
Upon hearing this, President Qin was overjoyed.
He quickly assured them:
"Rest assured, Master! I will inform you immediately once I have any news!"
"Then, Taoist priest, we will not disturb you any longer. See you in Miao territory."
Jin Hao followed suit, saying, "Brother Taoist, I'll head back now too."
"I'll come pick you and Master Zhang up early the day after tomorrow."
Li Jun nodded.
"Drive carefully."
The three of them left the courtyard and walked down the mountain path.
Li Jun saw them off at the door and watched their figures disappear around the corner.
Then, he turned around and went back into the courtyard.
Just as I took two steps, the old Taoist priest slowly walked in from outside.
Seeing Li Jun standing in the courtyard, he stopped.
"Everyone's gone?"
Li Jun nodded.
"I'm gone."
The old Taoist priest looked at him with a scrutinizing gaze.
"What serious incident has occurred?"
Li Jun was stunned for a moment.
Then, he smiled.
"Master, nothing's wrong. President Qin and the others came here specifically to deliver something."
The old Taoist priest gave Li Jun a deep look.
That look seemed to say:
You little rascal, you're still lying to me?
But he didn't ask any further questions.
The apprentice has grown up.
He's no longer the little kid who used to follow him around and ask "Master, what should I do?" about everything.
The old Taoist priest stepped into the house.
As we walked and talked:
"It's good that you're alright."
"Come on, this old Taoist priest wants to see what good things you've received today, Master Li."
Li Jun smiled bitterly upon hearing this.
He quickly followed.
"Master, please stop teasing me..."
