Professionals of the Starry Skies - Chapter 697

Chapter 697 Xuanwu True Skill
Barbarian state.
Dahei Temple.
The Dahei Temple was built by carving out a mountain. Its walls are painted black and the temple is filled with the aroma of incense smoke all day long.
As the largest sect in the world today and the most powerful temple, all the monks in Dahei Temple have a sense of superiority.
After all, the world’s number one expert, ‘Lotus Master’ who ranks first on the Dragon and Tiger List, comes from this temple.
Back mountain.
Several new monks were sweeping the floor with brooms.
“Today, the Jinshen Hall taught us martial arts and taught us the Arhat Palm!”
A monk put down his broom and demonstrated a few moves: “Once I learn the Arhat Palm, I can then learn the Bodhi Palm, the Thousand-Handed Tathagata Palm, the Ten Thousand Buddhas Palm… One day, I will also learn the ‘Great Light Fist’ and be feared by the world.”
“But those uncles and seniors said that we monks cannot have attachments in our hearts. This is a hindrance to our knowledge and views…”
Another young monk spoke up.
“Get lost… I became a monk just to learn martial arts. All those rules and regulations, greed, anger, and ignorance are fake.” The monk sneered, “If Master Lianhua didn’t have an infatuated heart, how could he be so obsessed with martial arts and become the best in the world?”
“Hush… Qingxu, are you trying to kill yourself? That person’s retreat is behind this.”
The little monk was shocked.
“It’s okay… He has been in seclusion for decades and doesn’t even eat… Why would he care about such a small matter?”
Qingxu waved his hand disapprovingly.
Suddenly, both of them felt something was wrong.
A shadow was cast down.
In the forbidden area at the back mountain, it seemed as if a black sun was slowly rising.
The sun is not scorching or warm… Instead, it is like a black hole, swallowing up all the heat around it.
Chuck!
Chuck!
Qingxu, who had been speaking so arrogantly before, now only had his teeth chattering.
He and the young monk beside him could only kneel down, trembling with fear, as if waiting to be judged in hell.
He didn’t know how much time had passed, but cold sweat was pouring down his face. As far as he could see, all he could see was a pair of black monk shoes walking farther and farther away.
…
The skinny monk Lotus, wearing a dark golden robe, came to a Buddhist temple.
“Amitabha, nice to meet Brother Lotus.”
The abbot of Dahei Temple, Master Lianxin, clasped his hands together and bowed: “Brother, you have been in seclusion for many years. I wonder if you can comprehend a realm above the first level?”
“No…”
The Lotus Master’s voice was hoarse and dry… just like a traveler who was about to die of thirst in the desert.
“oh?”
Master Lianxin was a little surprised. This senior brother Lianhua was devoted to martial arts and once vowed that he would never come out until he became a super-level martial artist. Why did he change now?
“I was enlightened by the Buddha and realized that martial arts is only a minor skill. For monks like me, the right path is to devote ourselves to Buddhism.”
The Lotus Master put his hands together, and his eyes, on his dry face like a skull, were extremely warm, just like a newborn baby’s.
“Hmm? I didn’t expect that Brother is so advanced in Buddhism?”
Master Lianxin took a deep breath and said, “I wonder what you have learned from this, Senior Brother?”
“The Kalachakra Black Sun Sutra is nothing special. I have been contemplating it for many years, and finally one day I suddenly realized that my Buddha is not in the past, not in the present… but in the future! My Buddha Maitreya will be born in the future, and will obtain the infinite Buddhist teachings of the stars and become the Supreme True Lord Panwu. He wrote the Panwu Black Sun Star Tribulation Sutra… It contains great magic power and great joy. Once you recite it, you will be able to reach the heavenly way…”
The Lotus Master looked extremely happy.
“What is ‘Panwu Supreme True Venerable’? ‘Black Sun Star Tribulation Sutra’?” Master Lianxin was shocked: “Brother, have you gone astray and damaged your brain? The only Buddha I worship in the Dahei Temple is Mahakala…”
“It’s okay, Junior Brother, you are just bewitched by the false scriptures. I will recite the true scriptures and I will be able to free you!”
Master Lianhua crossed his hands, and it was as if a Thousand-Armed Guanyin suddenly appeared in the small Buddhist hall, holding down all the hands and feet of Master Lianxin.
In terms of martial arts, although Lianxin is also a master of the top three grades, she is nothing compared to Master Lianhua, who is the best in the world.
In the eyes of Master Lotus, it seemed as if a black sun was rising and a big sun was being born and dying.
Then, Master Lianxin could not move and could only listen to Master Lianhua’s lecture:
“Infinite time and space give rise to wonderful phenomena, and the stars flow and perform the truth. Panwu’s mighty virtues penetrate the Dharma Realm, and a single thought of purity pervades the ten directions…”
“Namo Panwu Vajra Mighty Buddha, Namo Infinite Kalpa Wisdom Treasury Buddha, Namo Future Maitreya Buddha…”
“Those who practice this method must develop bodhi mind and pure mind…vow to save all sentient beings from the sea of samsara, then they can comprehend the true meaning of Panwu, visualize the light of the stars shining on the top of the head, and dissolve the five turbidities of affliction…If this sutra is written and circulated, the place will become a Vajra Mandala, with the protection of the gods and dragons…When one achieves ultimate accomplishment, he will receive the initiation of all Buddhas, attain the supreme enlightenment, have countless incarnations, and perform Buddhist activities in the star kalpa…When one dies, a thousand Buddhas will give him a hand and he will be reborn in the Eastern Pure Land of Lapis Lazuli, born from a lotus flower, and endowed with supernatural powers…”
“May this extraordinary merit be dedicated to all sentient beings in the dharma realm. May they quickly attain the Vajra nature of Panwu and worship Muni in the light of the stars.”
“Hey! Lianxin! Don’t you understand yet?”
The Lotus Master roared like a lion, and a terrifying dark sun fell directly into the sea of consciousness of Master Lianxin.
A first-class grandmaster has a spirit that reaches heaven and earth. He can lock souls thousands of miles away and create illusions. He is capable of what others cannot.
At this time, Abbot Lianxin suddenly became enlightened.
His consciousness was infinitely elevated, and his body trembled, as if he had reached an infinite height, bathed in the light of countless stars, and saw an unimaginable existence…
That existence created the world and integrated all things…
He is one, He is ten thousand, and He is everything!
He is… Pan Wu!!!
“Ahhhh!”
In an instant, Lianxin’s eyes exploded, her face became hideous, with only two blood holes oozing blood and tears.
He used the move of “Double Peaks Piercing the Ears” and pressed his left and right palms on both sides of his bald head, surprisingly destroying his own ears.
Even so, he rolled on the ground, wailing: “Future… Xingxiu… Panwu, Panwu!”
In fact, both Master Lianhua and Master Lianxin should be grateful.
The real Pan Wu has not fully awakened, so they can still maintain a bit of sanity.
Otherwise, even my body would probably start to mutate into a monster…
There was chaos in Dahei Temple.
When the abbot of the Vinaya Hall and the elders of the Bodhi Hall arrived, they only saw Master Lianxin who had become blind and deaf, and Master Lianhua was nowhere to be seen.
“Lian Xin is hosting?”
The old monks were shocked.
Host Lianxin had tears and blood in her eyes. She suddenly stuck out a piece of her tongue and bit off the tip of her tongue.
But then, he rolled on the ground and began to write with his tongue:
“Ninth Rank, Peeping Guest…”
“Eighth Rank, Bone Erosion Master…”
“Seventh Rank, False Monk…”
…
In the 1137th year of the Jiuzhou calendar, Master Lianhua of the Dahei Temple was possessed by a demon and killed Master Lianxin, the abbot of the Dahei Temple, and killed seven guardian elders and countless monks of the Dahei Temple who were pursuing him… In a short time, he became the public enemy of the martial arts world and the number one demon in the world!
The entire northern martial arts world was in a state of panic, with the trend of the Taoists declining and the demons growing stronger!
…
Lingzhou.
Baicaotang.
Xun Heihu was practicing boxing in the backyard, with Jiang Yuyan beside him.
“My Five Animals School’s skills are based on the five forms of tiger, deer, bear, ape, and crane… I mainly practice the ‘crane form’, with the ‘flying crane stance’ and ‘song crane technique’ to cultivate internal strength…”
Jiang Yuyan demonstrated his boxing stance while explaining everything he had learned.
These are the unique skills of the Five Animals Sect that are not passed on to others.
If she teaches these things to outsiders, if something happens in the future, she will surely be killed without a burial place, and even her entire family may be implicated.
Therefore, at this time, he could only follow Xun Heihu wholeheartedly.
Xun Heihu observed for a while, then performed another set of boxing techniques. His right hand was like a dancing white crane, while his left hand was like a serpent coiling around. “This is the ‘Snake and Crane Double Form’ that I improved based on your boxing techniques and standing practice… If you practice this technique well, you will probably be able to enter the innate realm of fetal breathing several years earlier!”
After all, he felt a little embarrassed to ask others to hand over their basic skills as requested by their predecessors.
Therefore, I would like to ask the seniors to help the other party to revise and improve it, which is also a kind gesture.
“Senior…how is it?”
Looking at Jiang Yuyan with an admiring look on her face, Xun Heihu said in his heart.
“The Five Animals Sect’s skills are not bad, they have some Xingyi flavor, but unfortunately they focus too much on ‘form’ and too little on ‘meaning’, it’s not quite there…”
Fang Xing’s voice came out: “I absorbed its essence and created a ‘snake-shaped pile’, which just matches your turtle breathing technique… The turtle and the snake coil are the ‘Xuanwu’, so this technique can be called the ‘Xuanwu True Technique’!”
“Boss!”
At this moment, a Baicaotang waiter came over in a hurry: “Something has happened in the Northern Wulin!”
“Hmm? Tell me in detail…”
Xun Heihu has his own aura.
He was educated by Fang Xing in those days and paid great attention to developing his own business so that he could save some money.
He opened “Baicaotang” in Lingzhou, which was considered as his entry into the pharmaceutical industry.
Although I can’t say I’ve made a fortune with the prescriptions Fang Xing gave me, I’m still making a lot of money every day.
And these waiters, doctors…are all those who fought their way through the medical store’s gang of masters back in the day, and there are even a few internal energy masters in charge.
After all, in this day and age, no matter it is a medical business, a cloth shop, a restaurant… any industry that can make money, without a warrior to keep it in check, will not make any money at all!
Even if there are really no warriors, you can still ask the “martial arts industry” or “fighting industry” to help…
Anyway, if you don’t have any military force, you can only eat the hardest food like the lowest level of peasants.
“Yes, Boss.”
The waiter said, “A letter came from the martial arts community in Dingzhou, saying that the world’s number one martial artist, Lotus Master, had been possessed by a demon. Not only did he betray the Great Black Temple, he also killed many white martial arts masters. Even the four great monks who had chased him and tried to persuade him to turn back were beaten to death…”
“What?”
Jiang Yuyan was shocked when these words came out.
That’s Master Lianhua!
Number one on the Dragon and Tiger Ranking, the best fighter in the world!
Moreover, he is a Buddhist master!
For such a great master to be possessed by a demon, isn’t that a joke?
“The more eminent the monk, the more murderous he becomes after being possessed by a demon…”
Xun Heihu sighed, feeling as if he had finally been relieved.
He knew something was going to happen in the north, but he didn’t know it was such a big deal.
“Senior… Is that Lotus Master my mortal enemy?”
In his heart, he was communicating with the Zhenwu Talisman.
“In all likelihood, it’s Panwu’s legacy…”
Fang Xing’s voice came: “Not bad, not bad… I think you can be the best in the world!”
