Fangchun Mountain, scam?

What did it mean?

Lin Xun, Zhao Jingxuan, Xiao Ran, and the others were baffled.

While waiting to hear what came next, they discovered that Toady had already withdrawn his gaze. Confused, he muttered, Fangchun Mountain, why does it sound so familiar? But this king cant recall anything

It was then that everyone realized that those few words were all that was written on the altar.

But what exactly did they mean?

No one knew.

Lin Xun transmitted, Toady, did you discover something?

Its a mysterious kind of Sanskrit from ancient times that was rumored to have been created by Buddhist cultivators. Unlike normal Sanskrit, this Sanskrit is so mysterious that even ordinary Buddhist cultivators cannot use it. Only supreme masters with profound cultivation who are dao proven are able to understand and write it.

Toady had returned to his senses by this point and used voice transmission to conceal their conversation, Such Buddhist text is also known as the Mahayana secret script and is rarely seen even in ancient times.

No wonder its so mysterious. Turns out that its some kind of deeply profound secret script created by the Buddhist sect.

Zhao Jingxuan was shocked by this revelation.

In other words, the opportunity in Violet Cloud Sacred Mountain is related to an ancient Buddhist saint that possesses the proof of dao?

Lin Xun was also somewhat surprised and bewildered.

Buddhist cultivators were an extremely unfamiliar existence to him. In the Forbidden City, the closest he had come to the topic was learning about a place several thousand miles from the city called the Fullmoon Kingdom where Buddhism was flourishing and monks were commonplace.

Back when Lin Xun had recently entered the Forbidden City, there had been a young monk called Yinian who had paid a visit to Qinglu Academy. He had challenged Little Sword Lord Xie Yutang to a duel that ended in a draw.

Despite this, the fact that Yinian did not lose the Little Sword Lord made the young monk quite a sensation in the Forbidden City for a time.

Although Lin Xun had heard of this matter, he had not paid attention to it. Thus, he was still pretty much clueless about Buddhist cultivation.

It was actually on this trip to Spirit Burial Sea that Lin Xun first saw a blind monk in the Dao Burial Sea Mound.

The monk was the incarnation of the bizarre. He had empty sockets for eyes and had been seated on a black skull wearing a kasaya that had clearly been splattered with blood. He had been holding a mottled bone-white rosary, and there had been an unusual black lotus symbol on his head.

This monk was the only Buddhist cultivator Lin Xun had seen, but it had been an overly strange and terrifying experience.

After hearing that the ancient Sanskrit inscribed on the altar was a type of Mahayana text belonging to Buddhist cultivation, all sorts of thoughts were now swirling in Lin Xuns head.

Im unsure. Its only just a line of illogical Mahayana words. There are no clues except that it must be related to Buddhist cultivation.

Toady also did not know what to make of it.

Lin Xun could not help but ask, Can you try to see if you can recall anything about this Fangchun Mountain?

Toady shook his head. I cant recall anything, but you shouldnt worry about it. Even if I did know something, it will still be a matter from ancient history that has nothing to do with you.

Zhao Jingxuan suddenly asked, What does it mean to be dao proven?

Toady explained, A dao proven Buddhist cultivator is a saint. In other words, it is a form of acknowledgment Buddhist cultivators have toward the dao. Among the Buddhist cultivators, anyone who is dao proven is undoubtedly a saint monk.

A saint monk?

It was a rather peculiar title and made Lin Xun wonder if the strange blind monk he had seen was a saint monk.

Suddenly, Wen Xiang said from afar, Junior Sister Zhao, what are you guys talking about? Maybe you guys can share so we can discuss it together?

Lin Xun turned his head and saw Xiao Ran, Su Xingfeng, Yun Che, and the others looking at them.

Its none of your business.

Toadys face was filled with annoyance. He didnt have a good impression of the Spirit Treasure Holy Land Successors, and thus did not show any courtesy.

Wen Xiangs expression froze for a moment before flashing with anger. You have the good fortune of following us to vie for the opportunity, but not only do you show no gratitude, you even act so arrogantly. Are you trying to make us your enemies?

Toady disdainfully pointed at Wen Xiang and arrogantly said, Boy, who said you could interject when the adults are talking?

You

Wen Xiang rose to his feet as killing intent blossomed in his eyes.

Alright, stop fighting.

Xiao Ran spoke in the same calm yet stern voice.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Jingxuan began to hesitate, but as if reading her thoughts, Lin Xun beat her to the punch and said, It isnt some big secret really. The words were left by a saint Buddhist cultivator and are a type of rare Sanskrit called Mahayana secret script.

Buddhist cultivator!

Mahayana secret script

These words shook Xiao Rans and the others hearts.

Xiao Ran asked, Are there any other clues?

These clues alone were insufficient to come to any conclusion.

Lin Xun shook his head.

Lin Xuan, were all in the same camp at the moment, so please do not hold back information from us. Can you bear the consequences if this ends up affecting everyones chances?

Su Xingfeng sternly said, evidently believing that Lin Xun was still intentionally hiding something.

Haha, do you see that? If you dont tell them, theyll say that youre selfish. If you tell them, theyll suspect that youre still hiding something. Youll always offend everyone no matter what you do.

Toady gloated.

Lin Xun shrugged, but paid no heed to it although he felt somewhat angry. How dare Su Xingfeng treat him as an attendant?

Lin Xuan isnt hiding anything. Believe whatever you want.

Zhao Jingxuan was also somewhat triggered. Originally, Lin Xun had no need to explain and had only done so because he did not want to put her in a difficult spot.

Xiao Ran smiled and was just about to say something when an invisible divine undulation suddenly spread from the peak.

A grand and immeasurable aura shook the land, causing the sea of clouds to churn violently.

The opportunity is about to surface?

Quick, get ready!

The experts in the forty-nine altar zones were immediately alerted and hurriedly rose to their feet in excitement.

Is the opportunity finally about to appear?

Xiao Rans and the others eyes also began to shine as they got up, ready to move at any moment.

Omm!

The forty-nine altars on the peak seemed to awaken after slumbering for countless years, producing cryptic and divine undulations as they began to shine.

The entire Violet Cloud Sacred Mountain trembled, overflowing with a dense divine aura that was dignified and vast to the extreme.

The clouds crumbled and disappeared as if they were unable to withstand the aura.

All the animals within a thousand-mile radius hissed, roared, and wailed as they shivered in fear. Even the rocks, grass, and trees rustled as if bowing down to a supreme being.

At the foot of the mountain, numerous experts from the various clans were still fighting in order to make their way to the peak.

However, their expressions immediately changed upon sensing the sudden disturbance. All of them stopped what they were doing and looked toward the peak. Is it about to descend?

The fighting quickly became increasingly crazed and desperate as everyone wished they could immediately charge up the peak.

Rumble!

The weather on the peak began to change as the divine aura rose like steam. The forty-nine ancient altars shone as a cryptic aura spread. Every sign indicated that something astonishing was about to occur.

The experts occupying the many zones grew tense, their mouths dry and eyes filled with almost fanatical anticipation.

After so many days, it was finally about to descend. Even the old monsters outside would likely be unable to remain calm in such a situation, right?

Punk, its coming which means the true danger is about to appear. Do you remember what this king said previously about the fifty daos from which only forty-nine can be derived? The chance of survival here is very slim, so dont let yourself be blinded by the opportunity or you will succumb to disaster!

Toady displayed a rarely-seen nervous side as he cautioned Lin Xun to be careful.

Lin Xun inwardly nodded. Although he was excited by the astonishing changes, he was still maintaining his vigilance.

There was no doubt that the many experts present would swarm forth and fight the moment it appeared. It would definitely be a bloody and cruel scene.

However, it wasnt just the competition that everyone had to worry about. Who could be certain that there would be no hidden danger from this place as well?

Suddenly, a speck of light appeared in the air at the center of the peak and gradually grew brighter. In the end, it shone like a radiant sun. Its glaring rays illuminated the surroundings and made the entire world appear dark in comparison.

What is that?

Many experts cried out in alarm, not daring to look at it directly.

Who cares what it is, we can find out after we take it!

There were also experts who no longer intended to continue waiting and moved, intending to seize the initiative and be the first to dip their hands into the pie.

A Golden Luan Clan expert turned into a golden luan and shot forward like a flash of lightning.

However, a chilling sight soon appeared. Before he could get close, his body was engulfed by the endless light and soundlessly incinerated into nothingness. He disappeared completely, unable to even scream from start to end!

A top-tier expert had died just like that. The most terrifying part was that even his Life Soul Bone Talisman had been unable to save him!

Hiss!

Gasps sounded all around. Everyone felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over their heads as their initial excitement shrank considerably.

Only then did they realize that this wasnt just a huge opportunity, but also a death trap and they needed to be careful!

It was at this moment that the blinding light began to transform, coalescing into an illusory, dream-like lotus flower.

The lotus flower was the size of a bowl and looked as if it had been made from the purest glass in the world. A vast divine aura flowed along it as it shone brightly.

It shone in the air like a lantern. Although it was only the size of a bowl, its radiance illuminated the surroundings, the mountains, the rivers, and everything else!

It felt as if its light had become omnipresent!
