Chapter 479: 478
Though I’m not fond of Ye Tian’s antics, under the current circumstances, I have no choice but to seek his help. At worst, I’ll owe him a couple of Bai’s tears.
“Old freak, he is my disciple, and moreover, my closed-door disciple. He is to inherit my mantle, and I will have him kill you right now!”
The Skull Master clearly looked down on this, rely closing his eyes slightly, no longer paying them any heed.
The person on the left, clad in black armor, opened his eyes to see Ye Tian, shook his head slightly, and then turned his gaze to the old lady, “Esoteric Master, we are all gathered here to protect the Buddha Bead Relics. Now the senior brother is going to practice his cultivation, but it is also to gain greater power to guard the Buddha Bead Relics. Why must you be so obstinate and stand in the way?”
“Do Brahmin disciples really need to rely on the Buddha Beads for cultivation? I’m afraid the real intention of the Master’s cultivation is to seize the Buddha Beads, isn’t it?”
The Black-armored Master chuckled, “What is real, and what is fake? Everything in this world is but an illusory fantasy. As an Esoteric Master of the temple, who has been cultivating for many years, it’s surprisingly unexpected that you haven’t realized even this much.”
“Hmph, here we have three Brahmin Masters eyeing the Buddha Bead Relics, thieves themselves have principles and dare to act upon their will, yet you three Masters are playing coy here, spouting these irrelevant and sophistical argunts, do you really not feel that you’re betraying the responsibilities and trust of a Master’s position?”
“It’s like not even feeling ashad when telling blatant lies, if it were , I would have found a hole to crawl into by now. And here you are, still blabbering away shalessly. I really wonder which master taught you. They say if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked. It seems even if the upper beam were more upright than , you three disciples would still manage to twist it crooked. What are you looking at with those cross-eyes? If your eyes aren’t working, don’t keep them so wide open, lest you beco a laughing stock. You would injure your self-esteem and yet still pretend to be generous, who knows which girl you’ll seek out to vent your anger in secret. Hey, you think closing your eyes ans nothing will happen? You must be really irritated inside, closing your eyes trying to be deep with . I can do that too, co on, let’s see who’s better. Humph, I knew you wouldn’t dare to co over, if you don’t dare then just squat there obediently! Oh, you even dare to stare at ? Just shows how petty you are, yet you won’t admit it, it’s all out in the open now…”
Ye Tian was spitting splutters all over the place, and if one was closer, it might even have hit the Skull Master’s face. Seeing the Black-armored Master about to rise and fight to the death with Ye Tian, he was held down by the obviously elder Skull Master next to him, who smiled and shook his head. The armored Master had no choice but to give up, just glaring with his cross-eyes.
Among the three, this person in black armor ranked third and was the most hot-tempered. If it weren’t for the presence of his two senior brothers, his pretend patience and dignity would have collapsed, and it would have been good enough to kill Ye Tian, but more likely, he would have dismbered Ye Tian’s body and gone complaining about being hungry.
Using human lives and witchcraft to cultivate his blood was his main thod. This young man in front of him had a special power, and it might really be possible to refine a Witchcraft Spirit Pearl from it, definitely allowing him to further his cultivation.
“I’m exhausted. Hey, old baldy, how about a drink of water?”
He even had the mood to drink water.
The Skull Master glanced at him, nodding his head, “Truly a pillar of Esoteric, the Esoteric Master can die with no regrets now.”
In those words, there was both mockery and a curse of death, but what was detestable was that this guy was still smiling and looked friendly, just like the kindly old grandpa next door.
“Dead old ghost, my Esoteric sect and your Brahmin sect shall be at odds until death today. Even in death, I shall ensure the safety and peace of the Buddha Beads.”
During the conversation, the white staff lying on his thighs emitted a ray of light. This light was not as bright as flas but had the warmth and gentleness of candlelight, even more so like the texture of cotton down. The staff slowly floated up, the white light spreading from one end to the other. The Esoteric Master held the staff aloft with his hands, gazing up at the white staff that was floating above.
This power was imnse, and Ye Tian could tell from his own experiences. This was his first battle, but from the two encounters he had already mastered so different techniques, his sensory abilities had also greatly improved. The chilly aura it brought felt bone-piercingly cold; the more powerful the force, the colder this chill. Similarly, though the Esoteric Master’s gentle power was not as sharp, the feeling of it slowly eroding his own inner strength incited a considerable amount of panic.
However, Ye Tian also noticed that the Esoteric Master seed to struggle with controlling the staff. The power fluctuated, now strong, now weak, at tis it seed it could advance but then it would suddenly pause, squandering the perfect opportunity. Looking at the Esoteric Master’s complexion, it was indeed not great; it had turned sickly pale from what was once normal, after taking control of the staff.
“Esoteric Master, please do not overexert yourself. We all belong to the Buddhist community; why push yourself to the brink of death?”
The Esoteric Master’s left arm trembled, causing Jenny to shiver inside, “Master!”
Others might not notice, but Ye Tian could see that the mont the staff floated up, an invisible barrier had ford around the four individuals, “Don’t go over!”
Ye Tian pulled Jenny back a few steps, retreating, as the Esoteric Master threw over an approving glance.
“My Esoteric Sect is a gateway to the Buddhist Law. You Brahmins have always been outsiders. Why insist on ddling in Buddhist affairs? Have you forsaken your own Sect?”
“All Laws Return to One, all originate from the sa source. Esoteric Master, you are attached to form.”
The Skull Master had his own set of argunts, much stronger than the man in black armor.
“Today, my Esoteric Sect will fight against your Brahmins to the death!”
Amidst the conversation, the white staff floated higher into the air, reaching an even greater height and emitting even more of its own light than before.
“Wait a mont!”
Just as the Skull Master touched his finger, preparing to make a move, he stopped. Similarly, the white staff also ca to a halt. A few people entered from the doorway, led by a bald monk.
Golden Kasaya, Bodhi Beads numbering one hundred and eight, significantly more than those surrounding the little monks, the eighteen Bodhi beads on his right hand were even more ancient and substantial, having been consecrated for countless Buddhist disciples.
“Four Masters, in a few days it will be the pilgrimage day for the Buddha Beads. By then, we will need the concerted efforts of the four Masters to ensure the safety of the Buddha Bead Relics. At this critical mont, I hope the four Masters will prioritize the greater good!”
