Chapter 50: The Ancient Sacred Tool of Buddhism
Tang Ning’s body was encapsulated by a strong soul energy force and elevated into midair. Looking at Tang Ning, who was floating with her body in an inverse position, the crow jumped around at the gate anxiously.
“Caw! Caw! It’s all over!”
Tang Ning could feel the strong soul force energy completely filling up the vessels in her body, and she was instinctively leading this gush of soul force energy towards her dantian.
Unlike the previous time when the soul force energy exploded and expanded the vessels in her body, this time, the entire gush of soul force energy entered her dantian after flowing through her entire body once, helping her improve her abilities and level rapidly.
A moment ago, Blackie was still worried that Tang Ning would explode to death, but now, it was staring dumbfounded at Tang Ning with its little beady eyes, as Tang Ning continued leveling up. Level three, Level five… The process only stopped when Tang Ning reached the peak of Level nine in the Qi Refinement Stage, and the soul force energy around her concealed.
Tang Ning gradually opened her eyes and felt the denser soul force energy in her body. She could not help but look at the Ten Thousand Years Guanyin Bamboo, and her gaze shifted when she thought of what she had inherited just now.
“Nothing comes for free in this world.”
She stared at the bamboo in her hand and sighed helplessly. Then, a drop of blood dripped on the Guanyin Bamboo from her finger, a flash of light appeared, and she could sense a connection with the Ten Thousand Years Guanyin Bamboo in her mind.
“This treasure acknowledged you as its Master?” Blackie flew over and stared at the Guanyin Bamboo on Tang Ning’s hand.
“It comes with a price.”
Tang Ning looked at the bamboo and said, “It is not just simply a Ten Thousand Years Guanyin Bamboo, it is also a superior-class immortal tool. This bamboo also possesses a dimension of its own, and this means that we would no longer need any cosmic bags.”
“You still benefited regardless of the price, your power raised to the Peak of Level nine in the Qi Refinement Stage, and you even obtained this treasure. Also, why is there now a gush of holy power residing in your body?” Blackie stared at Tang Ning and subtly felt that her aura was somewhat different now.
“The power probably became stronger.” Tang Ning stared at her slightly heating palm and the subtly appearing swastika. She could feel the power in her palm strengthening after she accepted the inheritance in the Ten Thousand Years Guanyin Bamboo.
As she thought in her mind, the swastika on her palm flashed, and a golden bowl appeared in her hand.
“So this is the Sacred Celestial Bowl. It is a tool held by the ancient Buddha since ancient times. As for this swastika, it is used to gather the power of merits and virtues. Rumor has it that when the Sacred Celestial Bowl appears in this world, so will the Celestial Buddha.” Tang Ning muttered. Due to the Buddhism inheritance found in the Guanyin Bamboo, she now knew the origins of the swastika on her palm.
But she had never expected her fate would lead her to obtain these sacred tools of Buddhism. No wonder that old monk had eyes on her and even wanted to bring her away, he probably knew that the Sacred Celestial Bowl and the Swastika of Merits and Virtue were with her!
“This is just like a hot potato!” Tang Ning shook her head helplessly. No matter whether it is the Sacred Celestial Bowl or the Ten Thousand Years Guanyin Bamboo, with these sacred tools of Buddhism in her hands, she could already imagine that her future would no longer be peaceful.
Within the forest, a few cultivators of the Golden Core Stage appeared at the place where Tang Ning was previously. Looking at the empty land and the obvious marks left by the movement of soil and sand, they could not help but look at one another.
A middle-aged cultivator looked serious as he said, “The soil and sand at this place were stirred and turned not too long ago. It is weird how the surrounding trees are growing luxuriantly, yet this space doesn’t even have grass growing on it.”
