The Sage Who Transcended Samsara

Chapter 1233 68, Ancient Stone Temple

In the dark and quiet room, Meng Qi’s body became deeper and deeper as he thought. It was as if he was in the moonless and Starless night sky.

He had already quietly activated the first two seals of the limitless state and the Dao, obscuring the secrets of Heaven and karma. A shadow that was difficult to detect from the outside world appeared on the side. It was the shrunken corpse of the netherworld. Every bone was malevolent, and the blood-yellow mist was filthy.

At that moment, Meng Qi split his mind and sent out a beam of chaotic light. It landed on the corpse, causing it to grow flesh and hair. It turned into an old man wearing a brocade robe. His hair was black, and only his temples were white. His facial features were abnormally ordinary, however, if one were to look closely, one would discover that deep within his black pupils was a white that was rippling with life. In the white, there was a black that was deathly quiet and cold. In the black, there was also the white from before. This cycle was repeated layer by layer. There was no source, and it caused one’s mind to sink, it’s hard to pull out.

As soon as the figure appeared, it disappeared into the deep darkness of the silent chamber.

Since we are going to “Build the plank path openly and secretly”to deceive the world, we must do it as if it were real. We must help our master to perfect the Pure Land openly and secretly, and we must not be idle either, he was able to carry out matters related to the Netherworld in a very secretive way, and just happened to use the bones of the Netherworld to sneak into the underworld through the secret passage provided by senior brother Qi to investigate the whereabouts of the reincarnation of the netherworld, through this, he could collect more secrets of the origin of life and death, so that he could be prepared for his future exploration with Emperor Fengdu, so that he would not be cheated by him. In the eyes of outsiders, searching for the whereabouts of the netherworld reincarnation was obviously meant for the netherworld, this was also a cover-up of his own actual purpose.

In this way, the great divine arts practitioners who had always been paying attention and doubting themselves would only say, “As expected,”“As expected,”and “Su Meng is really scheming in secret on the path of cultivation.”.

At this point, they would ignore their “Petty”master, and the other great divine arts practitioners who had never doubted or paid attention to them from the very beginning would not place their attention on this matter.

As for the great figures on the other side, if they were concealed by Emperor Qing or even the primeval lord of Heaven, they would have a good chance of hiding it.

As the netherworld skeleton, which contained part of Meng Qi’s consciousness, disappeared, the quiet room was completely silent, as if it had been peaceful at the beginning of the world.

..

The plains were vast and vast. At a glance, there was no end to the surroundings. It gave off an ancient and desolate feeling. The ground was dark red, as if it had been dyed by the blood and flesh accumulated over tens of millions of years, it rippled with obvious bloodlust and cruelty.

A large black sun quietly floated in the sky, shining with a gloomy and scorching light. It made this place seem like evening even if it was daytime.

This was the fifth level of the nine serenities realm.

Two figures flashed across the wilderness, dragging a thick bloody light, as if they were chasing something. Because of the long years of battles here, gullies could be seen from time to time, as well as swamps and underground rivers, which were quite suitable for hiding.

“Damn it, we’ve been shaken off.”A thick and hoarse voice sounded, and the two escape lights stopped.

​ The speaker was a man with an ugly face, a tall figure, and strong muscles, with only fur wrapped around his waist. His skin was bronze and almost black, and there seemed to be strange patterns hidden in the patterns, and his eyes were full of killing intent and anger, he was holding a long black saber in his hand.

“Xu Lun, we’re at the Yellow Springs ahead. There’s no Yin boat at this time, and it’s far from the Realm Bridge. He definitely won’t be able to cross the river. He’s most likely hiding nearby.”The other was a woman with a graceful figure and a beautiful face, she held a pair of serrated swords in her hands.

The ugly man looked ahead angrily. He saw a long blood-yellow river flowing past, and the faint cries of ghosts and souls could be heard. Even though the sun was high up in the sky, it couldn’t hide the chill in his heart.

“The puddle of pus and blood under his feet feels very familiar. It seems to be the hundred-armed evil demon that we are chasing after...”bran glanced at the puddle of blood and yellow water and thought in a relatively sober state.

The dark red-robed man’s hands emitted a red light as he said in a low voice,

“During this period of time, have you seen anyone similar to this person?”

A figure naturally appeared in the minds of Bran and Xu Lun. He was dressed in a black robe and had a delicate face. One of his eyes was completely black while the other was completely white. It was extremely strange.

Xu Lun wanted to answer from the bottom of his heart and said honestly, “I’ve seen him. He first entered this temple and then appeared in the vicinity. After a few days, he disappeared without a trace.”

The Man in the dark red robe nodded slightly and said as if he was talking to himself,

“Did the reincarnation of Netherworld really disappear around here in the end?”

“Yes, the reincarnation of Netherworld disappeared here.”A voice that seemed old and young came from outside the temple.

Bran and Xu Lun turned their heads abruptly and realized that a figure had appeared at the door. It seemed to be an old man. He was wearing a brocade robe. His hair was black and his sideburns were gray. The rest were ordinary, only his eyes seemed to hide layers of black and white vortexes.

The Man in the dark red robe narrowed his eyes. “Who are you? Do you also want to find the whereabouts of the reincarnation of the Netherworld?”

With his current strength, he was ranked in the ninth underworld, and he was not more than 180 people. He could count his experiences, but this white-haired old man who gave off an evil aura had no impression at all.

Was he a guest from the outside world, or was he a secret incarnation of someone?

The old man with white sideburns walked in with his hands behind his back and smiled:

“It doesn’t matter who I am. What matters is where I am.”

As he spoke, his gaze was fixed on the blood-black faceless Buddha. He slowly walked past Xulun and bran, past the man in the dark red robe, and stopped in front of the incense table. He looked up at the face of the Buddha statue, which had no facial features, and seemed to sigh with emotion:

“If my feeling is correct, this should be the handiwork of the Buddha of Mount Numinous.”

“Buddha?”The Man in the dark red robe turned his head in shock and looked at the Faceless Buddha as well.

At this moment, the brocade-robed old man flicked his finger and lit up the stone-made green lamp.

With a whoosh, the entire room lit up and illuminated every corner. The Man in the dark red robe could not help but extend his hand to cover his eyes, afraid that he would be illuminated completely. Xulun and Bran even closed their eyes tightly and staggered back a few steps.

This old man was Meng Qi’s incarnation of the Netherworld. He had been in the Netherworld for quite some time. He had tracked down this place from where the Netherworld Reincarnation first appeared, and this was the third gray stone temple he had encountered!
