It felt to Xu Taiping as if the Emperor's Sword didn't want to interfere with him, but just wanted to see him make his own decision.
Seeing this scene, Xu Taiping recalled for no reason the Duguye and other martial gods who were trapped in Geshu Miao's body at the Xuanhuang Tower.
In his first fight with Geshu Miao, if it weren't for the guidance of Geshu Miao and other martial gods, Xu Taiping would not have been able to fuse two sets of Great Sage Fists to learn the Ancestral Saint in such a short period of time, and finally defeat Geshu Miao.
Recalling the scenes that day, Xu Tianping suddenly felt very regretful and said:
"It's a pity that we couldn't bring out the souls of Senior Duguye and others from Xuanhuang Tower that time..."
When he thought of this, Xu Taiping, who was still hesitant just now, immediately looked up at the Human Emperor Sword suspended in front of him with firm eyes and said: "Seniors, if you don't dislike it, you can live in my gourd from now on. If One day, the human race will encounter a catastrophe, and I would like to ask all the seniors to help."
As soon as Xu Taiping finished speaking, a thunderous voice suddenly sounded in his mind:
"We are duty-bound!"
This sound was just like the roar of thousands of soldiers in the military formation.
Caught off guard, Xu Taiping's spirit was almost injured.
He smiled helplessly, then took the iron gourd from his waist, pointed the mouth of the gourd at the Human Emperor Sword and said:
"From now on, I will give in to all of you seniors and temporarily live in my little gourd."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Human Emperor Sword made a "whoosh" sound, turned into a stream of light, and penetrated into the gourd.
Fairy Lingyue suddenly smiled and said:
"Taiping, how do you feel about being recognized as the master of the Human Emperor Sword, one of the most powerful Dragon Divine Weapons in the past?"
Xu Taiping replied calmly:
"fine."
Xu Taiping actually prefers knives to swords, not to mention that the Human Emperor Sword is a sword that cannot be used, so the word "fine" is just right to describe his mood at the moment.
"Little benefactor."
At this time, the huge golden body of the ancient Buddha Kasyapa spoke again:
"Although you, little benefactor, are destined to my Buddhist sect, now is not the best time to accept the power of my Buddhist sect. Some evil things are trying to use my little benefactor's eyes to pry into the origin of my Buddhist sect."
"A few days ago, he was the one who cut off your relationship with the Thousand Buddhas Kingdom and prevented you from contacting my avatar, Kassapa."
"If you hadn't remembered Kasyapa later on, little benefactor, your relationship with Buddha would have been completely severed."
Xu Taiping's heart trembled when he heard these words.
Although according to Master Kassapa, the golden body behind him is not the real body of the ancient Buddha Kassapa, but is the divine thought generated by the Buddha's fate descended by the ancient Buddha Kassapa.
That evil thing can make this kind of existence fearful, which shows how powerful it is.
"Rumble..."
After admonishing Xu Taiping, the golden body of the ancient Buddha Nagasyapa suddenly slowly turned the huge Buddha head to the direction of the dragon shadow transformed by the remnant soul of the old Dragon King, and then continued:
"There is still some power left in the golden essence that you enshrined. Although it cannot give you the power of Buddhahood, it cannot be wasted in vain."
As he said that, he saw the huge golden body of the ancient Buddha Kasyapa and suddenly stretched out his hand to grab the old dragon shadow.
"boom!"
Accompanied by a loud noise like a mountain collapsing, in the stunned eyes of Evil Lord Qing Tong and the monks in the Old Dragon City below, the dragon shadow formed by the old dragon's remnant soul condensed in the dust looked like a dragon. Like a small snake, it is held in the hand by the golden body of the ancient Buddha Kasyapa.
Seeing this, Xu Taiping said to Fairy Lingyue with a shocked expression:
"Sister Lingyue, aren't all Buddhists compassionate? Why do I feel that their methods are more cruel than sword cultivators?"
Fairy Lingyue smiled and said:
"Buddhism's teachings have always been Bodhisattva-hearted and thunderous."
"Otherwise, how could we have saved tens of millions of humans from the dragons and other wild beasts in those troubled times of ancient times?"
Because Buddhism has long declined in the Shangqing Realm, Xu Taiping didn't know much about Buddhism.
This was the first time he had heard of what Fairy Lingyue said.
Fairy Lingyue said with a serious face at this time:
"The human race can survive in the chaotic times of ancient times and win in the struggle against the dragon race in ancient times. Buddhism owes a lot to it."
"For example, this ancient Buddha Kasyapa was one of the heroes at that time."
Xu Taiping nodded calmly after hearing this.
When he looked at the golden statue behind him, there was an extra respect in his eyes.
At the same time, I saw the golden body of the ancient Buddha Kasyapa. After "rubbing" the dragon shadow transformed from the old dragon's remnant soul in his hand for a while, he suddenly took out a golden bead from it.
"boom!"
Then, the golden body of the ancient Buddha Kasyapa threw the old dragon, which had been ravaged to the point of almost losing its soul, towards the outside of the old dragon court and said: "You evil beast, this piece of spiritual wisdom is hard to come by. If you don't know how to cherish it anymore, you will try to do something for it." If you bring harm to the world, my disciples of Buddhism will definitely send you into the endless world of my Buddhism, and you will never be reincarnated."
Then, under Xu Taiping's astonished gaze, the golden figure slowly handed the golden bead to Xu Taiping.
The moment it was handed to Xu Taiping, the golden bead changed to the size of a thumb and kept spinning around Xu Taiping.
Immediately, the golden body of the ancient Buddha Kasyapa spoke again:
"In this golden bead, the power of the old dragon to open the Qisu Treasure House is sealed, allowing you, my little benefactor, to control the Dragon Divine Weapon for a short time."
"As for how many divine dragon weapons you can summon, it depends on how much impact your soul, little donor, can withstand."
Xu Tianping was shocked when he heard this.
He did not expect that the Dharma form transformed by the divine thought of Ancient Buddha Kasyapa actually had the power to seize the power of the old dragon's bloodline.
Before Xu Taiping could express his thanks, he heard the golden body of the ancient Buddha Nagasyapa say again:
"Little donor, I hope we can meet you in the upper world someday."
After saying this, there was only a "boom" sound, and the huge golden statue suddenly shattered like a bubble.
At the same time, the voice of Master Kasyapa from the Thousand Buddha Kingdom rang in Xu Taiping’s mind——
"Taiping Donor, what a pity, you could have received the empowerment of the power of the ancient Buddha this time!"
Xu Taiping hung in the air in the wind, and at the same time asked Master Kasyapa in his heart:
"What are the benefits of gaining the power of Buddha's initiation?"
Master Kasyapa said:
"At least it will allow you to break through from refining the gods directly to the perfection of looking at the sky!"
Xu Taiping was stunned for a moment, then murmured:
"It's really a pity."
Master Kasyapa then said again:
"However, the evil thing in the dark has not been eliminated, so it is indeed not a good time for you to initiate."
"Master Kasyapa..."
Just when Xu Taiping wanted to ask Master Kasyapa what the "evil object" he and Ancient Buddha Kasyapa were talking about when they just sent down the divine message, Master Kasyapa suddenly interrupted him and said:
"Donor Taiping, don't worry about the evil thing. When you get the white bodhi branch, the young monk will have a way to solve it."
“And when the time comes, it’s not certain that disaster can be turned into blessing.”
Since Master Kasyapa refused to mention it, Xu Taiping didn't say anything more, just nodded and said:
"good."
At this moment, accompanied by a "rumbling" sound of breaking wind, Evil Lord Qingtong, Master Yizhu, and True Lord Yunhe flew towards Xu Taiping one after another.
"Young Master Wuyou, are you not injured?"
The owner of Yizhu Tower came to Xu Taiping with a concerned look on his face.
Xu Taiping smiled and shook his head:
"I'm fine."
Hearing this, Evil Lord Qingtong snorted coldly and said:
"If I had known you could ask for the power of Buddha's destiny, I wouldn't have to waste so much real energy."
Xu Taiping just smiled when he heard this.
Although he still didn't have a good impression of the Blue Eyed Evil Lord, after the battle just now, at least the disgust in his heart had subsided a bit.
"Master Wuyou, this time I am going to Jinting Cave Heaven. Master, can you be equal to me..."
"not good!"
The owner of Yizhu Tower was about to invite Xu Tianping to go to Jinting Cave Heaven with him, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by True Lord Yunhe.
The owner of Yizhu Tower looked at True Lord Yunhe with a surprised look on his face and said:
"What's wrong?"
The pale-faced True Lord Yunhe suddenly handed a spiritual mirror in his hand to the owner of Yizhu Tower and Xu Taiping, and then said with a hint of panic in his eyes:
"Elder Lou of Guangling Pavilion sent us a message in front of a stick of incense. There is a monster that looks like a human, but not a ghost, and is... cutting down the white bodhi tree!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and all looked at the spiritual mirror in True Lord Yunhe's hand.
In the spiritual mirror, just as Zhenjun Yunhe said, there was a monster wrapped in black mist, swinging an ax non-stop to chop down a huge white Bodhi tree.
"boom!"
Every time the ax fell, the world that was currently shrouded in moonlight would tremble.
The white bodhi tree that was chopped down had bodhi leaves on it. Like the flying snow, it fell "swissly".
