Chapter 63: Buddha’s Reincarnation, [Nine Yang Divine Art].
“You all come in.”
This voice seemed to be coming from all directions, as it rang in the ears of Abbot Hui Wen and the Court Heads.
“This is?”
Abbot Hui Wen’s eyes flashed with astonishment.
Although he was sure that this sound came from the room in front of him, he could not distinguish the sound to be actually coming from there.
The same goes for the Court Heads. They looked at each other in blank dismay, before finally, cautiously opening the door and walked in.
The decoration in the house was very ordinary. As long as you have stayed in the Shaolin Temple for more than ten years, you will have this kind of separate residence.
As a Great Sect, the Shaolin Temple occupies a very large area, so there is no need to worry about insufficient land and housing.
After Abbot Hui Wen and the Court Heads walked into the house, they couldn’t help but stare wide eyed at Su Qin, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed.
At this moment, Su Qin’s aura was in harmony, as if he is completely one with nature. If Abbot Hui Wen hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he would not believe that there was a person sitting in front of him.
“Greetings Venerable…” Abbot Hui Wen and the Court Heads bowed slightly and said in a low voice.
Venerable is the honorific that the Shaolin Temple uses for people who attained Arhat Buddhahood. Venerable in Buddhism has many meanings, but it mainly means ‘saint’ and ’the great wise one’.
“Get up.” Su Qin looked down towards the respectful Abbot Hui Wen and the Court Heads and said.
As early as when he left the Great Strength Hall, Su Qin had already expected this to happen, so naturally he was not surprised at this moment.
After Abbot Hui Wen got up along with the Court Heads, he just stood there blankly, not knowing how to express himself.
“If you have any questions, you can ask now.”
Su Qin glanced at the Abbot’s, sighed, and said casually.
Su Qin had a feeling that if he did not open his mouth, these people would just stay still and silent forever.
Abbot Hui Wen and the Court Heads looked at each other. Finally the Arhat Court Head brace himself stood up and cautiously asked: “Dare I ask the Venerable, ten years ago, when the Demon Buddha’s Descendant wreaked havoc, did the Venerable kill him?”
Ten years ago, the Arhat Court genius Zhen Xing’s family was slaughtered, and the Demonic Will of the Demon Buddha took advantage of this, turning him into his descendant that wants to destroy the Shaolin Temple.
At that time, the Demon Buddha Descendant was destroyed by a leaf, before it’s the body appeared outside Shaolin Temple in the end; dead.
Although Abbot Hui Wen and the Court Heads speculated that it was the work of the Ancestor Holy Monk, this matter has not been confirmed yet.
“It was me.” Su Qin replied.
Zhen Xing was bewitched by the Demon Buddha. His mind was already distorted and could not be reversed.
To a certain extent, Zhen Xing at that time was no longer himself, but a Demonic Will incarnation of the Demon Buddha.
Hence, Su Qin can only kill him.
“Many thanks to Venerable for taking action to punish the villain.” The Arhat Court Head thanked and then retreated.
After the Arhat Court Head taking the lead, the other Court Heads and Abbot Hui Wen also gathered up their courage to ask the doubts in their hearts.
For example, why did Old Demon Shi Xue die outside the Demon Subduing Tower, the change of the Back Mountain’s Forbidden seal and so on.
Su Qin didn’t deny, and answered them one after another.
Now that he has entered Arhat, and is at least invincible on this continent, as long as there are no secrets involved, there’s no use in lying.
Half an hour later, Su Qin looked towards Abbot Hui Wen and the Court Heads then said: “If there is nothing more, then you can go back.”
In this half an hour, this bunch of old fogeys were asking all sorts of questions, like did he obtain a rare treasure or something. If it weren’t for his attachment to the Temple, he would’ve kicked these guys out already.
When Abbot Hui Wen and the Court Heads heard this, they did not dare to violate the orders of the Venerable, and immediately bowed to leave.
Su Qin solved a lot of doubts for them. Other than other problems, most were problems related to Cultivation.
Whether it is Abbot Hui Wen or the Court Heads, they have gained a lot from this half-hour exchange.
Especially a few of the Court Heads which seemed to have reached epiphany. Once they go back, they’ll probably enter seclusion and try to advance.
…
Dharma Court.
After Abbot Hui Wen and the Court Heads left the Handyman Court, they came here.
“The Venerable, he is in harmony with the Heavens and Earth, and he is wise…” The Dharma Court Head was full of emotion and looked at the Handyman Court. There was a deep feeling of awe in the air.
Just now, the Court Heads and Abbot Hui Wen continuously asked questions, one after another. The scope they covered was a wide range, from Internal Strength, External Power, Body Refinement, Divine Art, etc., Basically almost everything.
But Su Qin answered them all. Not only did he answer it, but he also explained it in a simple way. It only took a few words to explain the great principles that ordinary people would never understand in their entire lives.
It was simply incredible!
Even a Martial Artist has limited energy.
Throughout the thousands of years of history of the Shaolin Temple, apart from Master Bodhidharma who also studied many Divine Arts, even the other Venerables who have attained Arhat Buddhahood were only good at certain aspects and not this universal. It’s far from being like Su Qin.
The other Court Heads also secretly nodded and agreed.
Indeed, they also have this idea at the moment.
“Perhaps, the Venerable is not a mortal…”
At this moment, Abbot Hui Wen’s eyes flashed with light and suddenly said.
“Do you remember what happened at the Great Strength Hall 20 years ago?”
Upon hearing this, the Court Heads were surprised. Indeed, twenty years ago, there was a natural phenomenon of the Golden Great Buddha appearing outside the Great Strength Hall. At that time, they all thought it was Buddha’s manifestation.
“I remember that the Venerable also entered the Shaolin Temple around the same time 20 years ago.”
The Abbot paused, seemingly to be controlling his emotions, then continued: “Perhaps, the Venerable was the reincarnation of a Buddha, so when he came to the Shaolin Temple, he attracted the attention of the Buddha and became holy.”
“Buddha… Buddha’s reincarnation?”
The other Court Heads were shocked at the possibility.
Being the reincarnation of Buddha and being an Arhat were totally different concepts.
An Arhat is above all beings, but after all, he only exists in the world.
But Buddha…
He is detached from the existence of this World.
The Court Heads felt that Abbot Hui Wen’s statement was probably true. Because Su Qin has only been in the Temple for 20 years.
Within that 20 years, he went from being an ordinary person who is not even a Grade 9 to becoming an Arhat. If he is not the reincarnation of Buddha, then what is?
“Okay, this matter is the Shaolin Temple’s top secret, no one should speak of this!”
Abbot Hui Wen glanced at the Court Heads and said.
“Yes.”
“Senior Brother, don’t worry, I know how important things are.”
The Court Heads settled their minds and said in unison.
…
At the same time.
Su Qin is sitting cross-legged, constantly getting acquainted with his own strength.
Late at night.
The full moon hung high in the dark sky.
Su Qin’s body flashed, appearing outside the Scripture Pavilion.
“I can now Sign In.” Su Qin looked at the Scripture Pavilion.
Although he has become an Arhat, he will not give up the opportunity to Sign In every day.
“System, Sign In!” Su Qin said silently in his heart.
[Congratulations!]
