Chapter 173: Chapter 153: Buddha Won't Ferry Me, Dragon Maiden Comes to Me
Su Heng was initially stunned.
Then he widened his eyes, fearlessly confronting the Buddha figure on the rock wall.
Boom boom boom!
The rock wall's trembling grew more intense.
Eventually, there was a loud "crack" on the neck of the Buddha statue, and the huge head rolled off the shoulders, thudding heavily onto the ground, causing a dull sound.
Su Heng had not yet figured out exactly what was happening when the palms of the Buddha statue started to move.
From the initial hand gesture of the middle finger pinching the thumb, it changed to both hands laying flat, right hand on top of the left, with the thumbs touching one another in another distinct meaningful gesture. As the gesture changed, the bloody moonlight rippled through the air, and surprisingly, Su Heng directly exited Xie Linyuan's memories.
"What's going on!?" Su Heng said, his face full of surprise, puzzled inside.
He closed his eyes, carefully sensing the state of his body, silently reciting the Dharma Seal in his mind.
A moment later, Su Heng opened his eyes again and gently exhaled.
Unexpectedly,
He felt nothing adverse at all.
Instead, his senses were clear, his thoughts agile and calm, experiencing a liberating and enlightening euphoria.
With Su Heng's level of cultivation, his control over his own body was extremely keen. Such a feeling was by no means an illusion but due to some changes caused by events that had just occurred.
"Absorbed due to Xie Linyuan's memories?" It didn't seem so.
Su Heng had been contemplating with his eyes closed for a while; if there had been any change, he should have noticed it long ago.
"Then, it must be because of the Buddha statue." Su Heng grew more puzzled, "Why did the Buddha statue crumble upon seeing me, and what benefits have I gained from it?"
He thought about the two hand gestures of the Buddha statue, which might contain crucial information.
Thus, Su Heng asked, "Does anyone have a good understanding of Buddhism?"
When facing the Buddha statue, Su Heng felt it was not purely an inanimate object.
This reminded him of the demons from the Sky Demon Alliance who spread beliefs; perhaps the owners of those Buddha statues were also cultivating through a similar method?
"Interesting..."
After the incident with the tides, the people of Baihua County wanted to build a temple for him.
It had already been over half a month, and he was not sure how the construction of the temple was progressing. Su Heng had not cared much about it initially, but now he had some interest in it.
"However, the most urgent task is to integrate the demon remains, so that I can stand invincible against stronger opponents from the Heavenly Deceit Realm," Su Heng reached out and grabbed Xie Linyuan's unconscious body as if picking up trash, "and then find An Shelie's tomb and take the Dragon Blood!"
Whether it was to strengthen his physique, advance the progress of Blood Mutation,
or to further perfect the Domineering Dragon Thirteen Forms secret technique and bring more terrifying enhancements to the Transformed Dragon State auxiliary move,
Su Heng now needed the Dragon Blood!
Moreover, An Shelie's tomb was essentially on his territory.
If someone else managed to steal it right under his nose, it would truly disgrace him as a leader.
Thus, Su Heng was determined to obtain the Dragon Blood.
...
...
...
In Jiangbei State, at the location of the Demon Gate.
In a stockade adorned with red lanterns, quite ordinary overall,
a seemingly inconspicuous room was filled with the gentle voice of a woman conversing.
Ke Yulan was sitting cross-legged on the bed, her long hair draped over her shoulders. She appeared to have just finished a bath, her skin rosy and translucent, with a hint of dampness still lingering in her cloud-like hair. She was innately seductive, wearing a thin gauze garment, and every smile and frown showcased the full extent of her feminine charm.
