Chapter 15: Vajra Temple.

[Congratulations to the Host! Sign In successful! Obtained medicinal pill ’Divine Accumulation Pill’.]
“Divine Accumulation Pill?”
Su Qin had a smile on his face, he was very satisfied.
The Divine Accumulation Pill is a very special medicinal pill. Although it can neither strengthen the body like the Marrow Cleansing Pill, nor strengthen Internal Strength like the Great Revitalizing Pill, the Divine Accumulation Pill has one effect and that is…
Nurturing ‘Divinity’!
What is a ‘Divinity’ one may ask?
In Su Qin’s view, a ‘Divinity’ is a collective term for a person’s Essence, Qi, and Spirit.
In Taoism, it is a primordial spirit, a Nascent Soul.
(Tl: Please correct me if I’m wrong)
Generally speaking, common Martial Artists, even including Grade 2 Martial Artists, do not need to cultivate Divinity.
That’s because the fight among Martial Artists is basically done with the collision between the body and Internal Strength. As for Divinity…
Even if one is a Grade 1 Great Grandmaster, their Divinity is very weak.
And if a Grade 1 Great Grandmaster wants to go a step further and attain Arhat Buddhahood or step into the Legend Realm, one needs to cultivate Divinity.
An Upper Realm Martial Artist’s body connects with the Heaven and Earth. It is constantly being washed by the World’s Essence Qi and draws the Power of Heaven and Earth.
And as for the Legend Realm, one can completely control the Power of Heaven and Earth, sweeping everything away with just a gesture.
Drawing the Power of Heaven and Earth and actually controlling it are two completely different concepts.
The latter is many ‘many’ times stronger than the former.
And what does a Martial Artist rely on in order to control the Power of Heaven and Earth?
Remember that in front of the mighty Power of Heaven and Earth, the body of a Martial Artist is like a speck of dust, not worth mentioning at all.
So if one wants to completely control the Power of the World, one can do it by having a strong enough Divinity.
Arhat Buddhahood is the same as Legend Realm, it’s just a matter of terms. (The latter is the term used by the world and former is the term used by the Shaolin Temple)
The Divine Accumulation Pill that Su Qin just obtained is a Divinity medicinal pill.
Nowadays, anything related to Divinity is extremely rare, and if there is one, it’s enough to cause two Grade 1 Great Grandmasters to fight.
And that even more true in the case of a Divine Accumulation Pill which can directly accumulate Divinity.
“I need to wait.”
“Because once I take the Divine Accumulation Pill, I can’t stop it. And if I get interrupted, the medicinal efficacy will be greatly reduced.”
Su Qin thought silently.
He had been patient for ten years, so how could he not bear two days of waiting?
Su Qin is a very patient person. Otherwise, he would’ve left the Shaolin Temple already after becoming a Grade 1 Great Grandmaster, and not strive to be the most invincible in the whole world.
In the late night.
Everything was silent.
Su Qin quietly left the Handyman Court and came to a simple secret room.
This secret room was located underground, Su Qin had built it over the past ten years.
Hoooo!
Su Qin sat cross-legged and gently exhaled. He used the Divine Accumulation Pill.
Bang!!
In an instant, Su Qin felt as if he was immersed in a hot spring.
After a few hours.
Su Qin’s eyes slowly opened.
Hua!
An illusory lightning suddenly appeared in the secret room!
However, this was not real lightning, and was instead a natural phenomenon that occurs when the Divinity is strong enough to a certain extent.
“One Divine Accumulation Pill increased my Divinity by 50%.”
Su Qin nodded.
If he had no Divine Accumulation Pill, Su Qin will only be able to achieve the same amount of increase he had right now, after at least five years of cultivation.
The Divine Accumulation Pill saved Su Qin five years of hard work.
…
Several thousand li away from the Shaolin Temple, there was another majestic Buddhist Powerhouse Sect named the Vajra Temple.
The Vajra Temple is also a Great Sect.
However, compared to the decline of the Shaolin Temple, this generation of the Vajra Temple was in a prosperous period.
The current Abbot of the Vajra Temple is a famous Grade 1 Holy Monk!
And at the moment.
Under the golden body of Buddha enshrined in the Vajra Temple.
The Abbot was looking at a young monk with a pious face and said in satisfaction: “Ba Tuo, you have read all the Buddhist scriptures in the temple, and now Vajra Temple has nothing left to teach you.”
“It’s time for you to go down the mountain.”
“Go to the North, and to the Shaolin Temple. It is the first among the four Buddhist Sects in the world. It has an inheritance known as [Buddha’s Palm]. Although the Shaolin Temple has been in decline, and the [Buddha’s Palm] has disappeared, it still has a deep heritage. If you go to the Shaolin Temple, you will definitely gain something.”
The Abbot looked at Ba Tuo as he slowly said this.
Although the Abbot of the Vajra Temple is a Grade 1 Holy Monk, when facing this young monk named ’Ba Tuo’, he was treating him as an equal.
That’s because the young monk named ’Ba Tuo’ is very special.
Ba Tuo was born in a small village outside the Vajra Temple. When he was born, the whole village was enveloped by a faint Buddhist singing.
When Ba Tuo was three years old, he often sat in front of the ruined Buddha statue in the village all day long.
When this generation’s Varja Temple Abbot discovered Ba Tuo, he was already twelve years old.
At first sight, the Abbot immediately found that Ba Tuo had an extraordinary understanding of Buddhism, and he immediately asked him to enter the Vajra Temple.
Ever since Ba Tuo entered the Vajra Temple eight years ago, he had read all the Buddhist scriptures in the Vajra Temple, and even often argued with the Monks in the temple, winning more and losing less.
Even the Abbot himself has lost to Ba Tuo.
Such a thing was incredible.
After all, who is the Abbot? He is a Grade 1 Holy Monk!
And yet he was beaten by a twenty-year-old Ba Tuo?
If this news was spread, it will definitely shock the people.
And not only that.
Ba Tuo also has a terrifying understanding of Buddhist cultivation techniques. After only eight years in the Vajra Temple, he had already entered the Middle Realm.
This almost made the Abbot think that Ba Tuo is a reincarnation of an Arhat.
Because of this, the Abbot proclaimed Ba Tuo as the chosen son of this generation of the Vajra Temple, which was basically the equivalent to an heir and the future Abbot.
“The Shaolin Temple?”
Ba Tuo looked at the Abbot, slightly confused.
The Abbot nodded, “The Shaolin Temple’s inheritance has thousands of years of foundation. And they also have the background of people that attained Arhat Buddhahood.”
“You are going to the Shaolin Temple this time to discuss Buddhism with the younger generation of the Shaolin Temple, in the name of the Vajra Temple.”
A smile appeared on the face of the Abbot.
Amongst the Four Buddhist Sects in the world, every few decades, they will communicate with each other through what is referred to as “On Buddha”.
The reason why the Shaolin Temple is the first (top) among the Four Buddhist Sects was that in the previous “On Buddha”, the Shaolin Temple held the advantage.
But this time, the Abbot is very much looking forward to it. In this ‘On Buddha’, who among the dísciples of the Shaolin Temple can compete with Ba Tuo?
“Yes, Abbot.”
Ba Tuo bowed slightly and replied.
“Remember, although Buddhism seeks to be indifferent to the world, ‘On Buddha’ is different. ‘On Buddha’ is the ideal friendly competition of the Four Buddhist Sects. It can only be won and not lost.”
The Abbot reminded him.
“This one understands, Abbot.” Ba Tuo turned and walked back, he was going to prepare for his journey to the Shaolin Temple.
After Ba Tuo left, the Abbot stood under the Golden Buddha with a smile on his face.
It’s because he knows that this time, between the Vajra Temple and Shaolin Temple, the Shaolin Temple will definitely lose.
