Chapter 46
[Reward: Tathagata Palm! A supreme martial art of the heavenly god level that is extremely yang and rigid. It is rumored that this technique was a peerless martial art passed down to mortals by the Tathagata Buddha to save all living beings, resolve calamities, and eliminate disasters. The power of the Divine Palm can rival natural disasters and eliminate demons.]
[Boneless Sarira, a Buddhist bone sarira rumored to have been transformed by the Nirvana of the Great Saint Venerable King Buddha, which has the effect of warding off evil. Carrying it with you for a long time can prolong life and communicate with yin and yang.]
Whoosh!
Kangxi never expected that the 11th place on the Azure Cloud Ranking would be his fourth son!
Yinzhen!
He was just complaining that the dignified Great Qing didn't have a single expert who could make the Azure Cloud Ranking!
However, Yinzhen's appearance on the list didn't make Kangxi very happy!
Because he didn't know at all that his fourth son had such heaven-reaching martial arts cultivation!
And, a dignified imperial prince!
Too close to Buddhism!
(
And he practiced a whole set of Buddhist techniques!
One
This made Kangxi very unhappy!
)
However, being able to make the Azure Cloud Ranking, and being ranked 11th on the Azure Cloud Ranking!
Zero
It is a good thing after all!
0
Especially for the Great Qing, which hasn't had a single person on the list yet, it is even more of a happy event!
One
However, Kangxi was still not too happy.
6
"Fourth son, fourth son."

"You really hid yourself deep enough!"
Yi
"If this Azure Cloud Ranking hadn't exposed you, I still wouldn't know that my son had such ability!"
Ling
"It's truly good, very good!"
Five
Kangxi said this.

Two flashes of brilliance crossed his sharp eyes.

Great Qin.
Qizhou.
Nangong Chunshui Immortal-Asking Pavilion.
Li Zhangsheng looked at Aisin Gioro Yinzhen, who had just made the list, and was also slightly stunned.
In his mind, he couldn't help but think of the white and tender kid with a money-braid he had seen at Hanshan Temple thirty-six years ago.
"Aisin Gioro Yinzhen."
"Deep Buddhist affinity."
Back then, Li Zhangsheng was a Zen genius, Monk Master Wuxin, with very profound Buddhist teachings.
He was recognized as the reincarnation of the World-Honored Spirit Child in the Buddhist world of the Central Plains.
Li Zhangsheng had practiced the Buddhist supernatural power of 'knowing the thoughts of others' to the highest realm.
At that time.
He was preparing to trick everyone at Hanshan Temple into Nirvana, intending to run away from Hanshan Temple.
He happened to meet Aisin Gioro Yinzhen, who had come to Hanshan Temple to offer incense.
He saw that Aisin Gioro Yinzhen had excellent bones and deep Buddhist affinity.
He thought about converting Aisin Gioro Yinzhen into a new Buddhist Spirit Child.
Now, thirty-six years have passed.
That Yinzhen should not have practiced the 'Past Amitabha Sutra' to the highest realm yet.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to only be at the Seventh Grade Celestial Human level.
What a pity.
If Yinzhen couldn't practice the 'Past Amitabha Sutra' to the highest realm, he wouldn't be able to open the Spirit Child inheritance he had left on Yinzhen.
It seems that the 'Past Amitabha Sutra' is indeed not something that just anyone can practice to the highest realm.
A flash of regret crossed Li Zhangsheng's eyes.
PS: The fifth guaranteed update, please give flowers, please give evaluation tickets!
Northern Song Dynasty.
Songshan.
Northern Northern Shaolin Temple.
In the Mahavira Hall.
A group of Northern Northern Shaolin monks led by Xuan Ci looked at the Azure Cloud Ranking in the firmament.
Looking at Aisin Gioro Yinzhen, who had just made the list.
Seeing the 'Tathagata Palm' and the 'Boneless Sarira' rewarded to him by the Heavenly Dao.
The eyes of all the monks were shining.
Kong Wen said: "Abbot!"
"Tathagata Palm!"
"Boneless Sarira!"
"These are all peerless treasures of our Buddhist sect!"
"If they are controlled by outsiders, wouldn't it disgrace our Northern Shaolin's prestige!"
"Abbot, we must welcome these two treasures back to our Northern Shaolin!"
Xuan Ci frowned and said: "Kong Wen, this matter is of great importance!"
"This Aisin Gioro Yinzhen is an imperial prince of the Great Qing."
"His own strength is also extraordinary."
"He is already a peerless expert of the Seventh Grade Celestial Human realm."
"In our Northern Shaolin Temple, so far, only Junior Brother Kong Ran has reached the Celestial Human realm!"
"However, Junior Brother Kong Ran is sometimes crazy and sometimes clear-headed."
"It is difficult to borrow his power."
At this time, Kong Wen said directly: "Abbot, have you forgotten?"
"There is still a supreme expert of the Great Perfection of the Celestial Human realm in our temple!"
Xuan Ci heard this, but a hint of hesitation appeared on his face.
"Are you talking about Uncle Da Bei?"
Kong Wen nodded and said: "That's right, it's Uncle Da Bei."
Xuan Ci said: "Uncle Da Bei is sitting in the withered-prosperous life-death pass; when he entered the pass, he once said that unless there is a danger of the temple being destroyed, do not disturb him."
"It is not good to disturb him, the elder."
Kong Wen said, "Oh my!"
"Abbot!"
"What time do you think it is!"
"Those are the *Tathagata Palm* and the Boneless Sarira!"
"If we could welcome the *Tathagata Palm* and the Boneless Sarira back to the Northern Shaolin Temple!"
"Uncle Dabi would surely gain much benefit as well!"
"Furthermore, that Boneless Sarira is the relic left behind by the Nirvana of the Namo Great Saint Venerable King Buddha; who knows, it might even cure Senior Brother Kongran’s madness!"
"If Senior Brother Kongran’s madness is cured, wouldn't our Northern Shaolin then possess two experts at the Great Perfection of Heaven and Man!"
"Abbot, this matter is of a hundred benefits to our Northern Shaolin and not a single harm!"
Kong Wen urged Xuan Ci to make a decision.
Xuan Ci looked toward the various heads of the halls surrounding him.
He saw that the faces of all those heads were filled with hope.
Xuan Ci immediately understood their intentions.
He nodded at once and said, "Very well!"
"Since all you junior brothers agree to invite Uncle Dabi out of seclusion!"
"Then let us all go together to the Profound Light Pagoda to invite Uncle Dabi!"
The Northern Shaolin high monks all nodded upon hearing this and said, "Very well!"
"We shall follow the Abbot's command!"
Once the words were spoken.
The group of Northern Shaolin high monks, led by Xuan Ci, all departed from the Great Hero Treasure Hall.
At this moment.
Outside the Scripture Library of the Northern Northern Shaolin.
The gray-robed old monk sweeping the floor looked at the Azure Cloud Ranking in the firmament.
Seeing the items the Heavenly Dao had rewarded to Aisin Gioro Yinzhen, he let out a faint sigh.
"Wealth moves the hearts of worldly men, but this Boneless Sarira and the *Tathagata Palm* move the hearts of those in the Buddhist faith."
"The Heavenly Dao is indeed unfathomable and ever-changing."
"I hope the Northern Shaolin monks can hold fast to their original intentions."
"Otherwise, a great disaster will surely befall Northern Shaolin."
Southern Song Dynasty.
Putian.
Southern Northern Shaolin Temple.
The Southern Northern Shaolin Abbot Fang Zheng looked at the Azure Cloud Ranking in the firmament.
Seeing that Aisin Gioro Yinzhen on the list had actually received the Heavenly Dao's reward of the *Tathagata Palm* and the Boneless Sarira.
His eyes could not help but gleam with a sharp light.
It was truly because these two items were too tempting.
The *Tathagata Palm*!
The peerless martial art legendarily bestowed upon mortals by the Buddha!
The Boneless Sarira!
The supreme treasure left behind after the Nirvana of the Namo Great Saint Venerable King Buddha!
Such items held a fatal attraction for disciples of the Buddhist faith!
The struggle between the Northern and Southern Northern Shaolin had always been about who was the true orthodoxy of the Chan sect.
However, if they could get their hands on this *Tathagata Palm* and the Boneless Sarira.
Then there would be no need to argue anymore.
The position of Chan orthodoxy would surely belong to the Southern Northern Shaolin!
Thinking of this.
Fang Zheng immediately said to the various high monks of the Southern Northern Shaolin, "Junior brothers, you have also seen that the emergence of this *Tathagata Palm* and the Boneless Sarira relates to whether our Southern Northern Shaolin can become the Chan orthodoxy."
"Such a Buddhist supreme treasure must certainly not remain in the hands of a worldly person like Aisin Gioro Yinzhen!"
"We must welcome these two treasures back to our Northern Shaolin!"
At this time.
A middle-aged monk spoke up, "Abbot, this Aisin Gioro Yinzhen is the Fourth Imperial Prince of the Great Qing."
"He has also cultivated a Chan divine art like the *Past Amitabha Sutra* and is already at the seventh grade of Heaven and Man."
"Relying solely on our strength, I fear it will be difficult to seize our Buddhist supreme treasures from Aisin Gioro Yinzhen's hands."
Fang Zheng nodded and said, "What Junior Brother Fang Sheng says is indeed reasonable."
"I have already made plans for this matter!"
"I have some friendship with Master Master Jieyou, the abbot of Hanshan Temple."
"Years ago, I once saved his life."
"Master Master Jieyou is already at the Great Perfection of Heaven and Man."
"With his assistance, we will certainly be able to retrieve the *Tathagata Palm* and the Boneless Sarira from Aisin Gioro Yinzhen."
At this time.
Someone else spoke up.
"Abbot, Aisin Gioro Yinzhen's *Past Amitabha Sutra* was obtained from the previous generation's Buddhist prodigy, Master Master Wuxin."
"Moreover, Aisin Gioro Yinzhen has also visited Hanshan Temple."
"Might Master Master Jieyou of Hanshan Temple also be acquainted with Aisin Gioro Yinzhen?"
"If the two of them are well-acquainted, I fear this matter will be difficult to handle."
Upon hearing this, Fang Zheng nodded immediately and said, "Hmm, that is correct, Junior Brother Fang Xing is right."
"How about this: several junior brothers, depart with me immediately to Hanshan Temple to secretly meet with Master Master Jieyou first."
"I believe that with my friendship with Master Master Jieyou, if we persuade him well, we can certainly get him to assist us."
The group of Southern Northern Shaolin high monks nearby immediately said, "Very well, we are willing to go with the Abbot!"
Wu Chao.
Fifty miles from Fengdu!
Mount Fenglai.
The foot of Dita Peak!
Shi Shi Feixuan, the Master of Pudu Cihang Pudu Cihang Jingzhai, brought the two outstanding disciples of this generation of Pudu Cihang Pudu Cihang Jingzhai.
Qin Qin Mengyao and Jin Jin Bingyun had just left Pudu Cihang Pudu Cihang Jingzhai and arrived at the foot of Dita Peak.
At this time.
The movement on the Azure Cloud Ranking in the firmament.
Had already startled Shi Shi Feixuan.
When Shi Shi Feixuan saw that the Great Qing Imperial Prince Aisin Gioro Yinzhen had actually received the Heavenly Dao's reward of the supreme Buddhist divine art *Tathagata Palm* and the Buddhist supreme treasure, the Boneless Sarira.
She was completely stunned.
"*Tathagata Palm*!"
"Boneless Sarira!"
"Both of these supreme treasures are even more powerful than the *Eight Divisions Pagoda Canon*!"
"And even more important!"
"The Great Qing and the Great Ming are in the same direction!"
"Qin Mengyao, Jin Bingyun, it seems our goal must change."
"We will go to the Great Qing first to see if there is an opportunity to obtain the *Tathagata Palm* and the Boneless Sarira!"
"If we can obtain these two supreme treasures, the day of my Pudu Cihang Pudu Cihang Jingzhai's revival will not be far off!"
