Chapter 1064: The Peacock Ming King (For Alliance Leader Cannot Bear HW!)

~15 min read 2,818 words

【Name: Aaron】

【Race: Human】

【Attributes: Strength 12 (+2), Dexterity 15 (+1), Constitution 12 (+1), Intelligence 23 (+1), Wisdom 16 (+2), Charisma 21 (+1)】

【Alignment: Lawful Evil】

【Class: 20th-level Bard / 1st (+3 Godhood) level Secret Teachings Monk】

【Hit Points: 130/130】

This is different from before, it's completely unbearable!

Seeing him unmoved, this female elf looked him over with slight curiosity: "Dharma King, who is this?"

【You contemplate the "Peacock Inspiration Mantra Sutra," you gain inspiration from the original statue of the "Vajra Winged Hot Peacock Rakshasi" Protector, and you perceive the true image of the "Ten Directions Supreme Peacock Ming King Buddha Mother"!】

Furthermore, their will is as tough as iron; even succubi and dryads cannot make them waver in the slightest!

That Bayan is a monk in this region, and it is quite reasonable that the Protector he believes in is related to the Buddha Mother of this temple.

But...

Aaron watched the Great Might Dharma King leave, chuckled, and went to rest on his own.

He complained inwardly, but his footsteps did not stop.

The Great Might Dharma King smiled: "The Ming Consorts within, the Buddha Son may take as he pleases... I presume it will be of great benefit to the Buddha Dharma!"

After Zhuoma left, Aaron looked at the Great Might Dharma King with a puzzled expression.

Such secret lore about other lineages' original deities is not necessarily known to ordinary monks.

Aaron's heart stirred.

Accompanied by a voice as pleasant as pearls and jade, the Drow elf from the Ming Consort Courtyard whom he had met once before walked over, looking at Aaron, unable to hide the covetousness on her face: "Buddha Son... what kind of scented powder are you wearing? It smells so good..."

"To be able to observe the Buddha Mother without being disturbed by her Buddha nature, Maitreya, you are indeed a true Buddha Son."

【Legendary Specialty: Quicken Spell, Increased Chant Speed, Increased Chant Range, Order Strike, Transcendent Saint, Immunity to Charm】

【Creature Specialty: Extreme Flight, Transcendent Dexterity】

After all, the other party had already highlighted the main point.

Aaron's eyes lit up.

"So that's how it is..."

"I must inform the Buddha Son, this place is the 'Ming Consort Courtyard'!"

The Great Might Dharma King's prestige was clearly very high; the monks they encountered all respectfully stepped aside and performed a salute with palms pressed together.

"This is the Buddha Son, Zhuoma, you must not be rude!"

He recalled the information he had obtained from the Father of Oaks and pressed his palms together: "Reporting to the Abbot, Maitreya is willing to accept the test!"

"Peacock Swallowing Heaven Secret Mantra"!

'No, it should be a lower-level secret mantra of this Secret Mantra: is it the "Bird Demon Devouring Secret Mantra"? This woman... really wants to eat me? That's right... having perceived the profound meaning of the "Ten Directions Supreme Peacock Ming King Buddha Mother," in her eyes, am I not just a piece of fragrant meat, a great tonic?!'

The Great Vehicle Dharma King's expression changed: "How can a Buddha Son from an outside temple become the Abbot of this temple?"

The Great Might Dharma King was slightly stunned; this was the Buddha Son's original treatment, why had it changed?

【Domain: Light, Order】

Early the next morning.

"Six Adornments Divine Mantra Sutra," "Great Joy Vajra Non-Empty True Samaya Sutra," "Five Mother and Son Sutras," "Flower-Plucking Violating King Supreme Buddha Bestowed Decree Wonderful Flower Sutra"...

Moreover, Aaron was quite interested in the scriptures of the Secret Teachings.

Abbot Kongxing said: "Buddha Son Maitreya... originally you worshiped the 'Silent Venerable Secret Lord Buddha,' you may open a separate courtyard within Snow Eagle Temple, as the Head Great Lama, with all treatment equal to the various Dharma Kings. You may recite all the temple's classics, except for a few Secret Transmissions..."

Crack!

【Divine Duty: Gimo, Stories】

Who let the "Light Buddha Mother" be "Red"?

'However, I am already immune to charm...'

The Great Vehicle and Great Compassion Dharma Kings looked at each other but remained silent.

The Great Might Dharma King gave a hint; even if he didn't care, he had to put on a show of reading to prepare for the exam.

Once these words were spoken, Aaron could clearly feel the change in the attitude of the several Dharma Kings.

And this demeanor made the Great Might Dharma King's eyes shine even brighter.

"Oh?" Aaron was slightly puzzled.

The Scripture Depository was large, with various book scents and sandalwood mixed together, making one's mind calm.

'Should I say, as expected of a Drow elf? Coming to this Secret Teachings Ming Consort Courtyard, she is instead like a fish in water?'

【Class Specialty: Jack-of-all-trades, Endurance】

Only hearing Kongxing continue: "But when you entered the main hall just now, I used Right Equal Enlightenment to trigger the Buddha nature of the 'Light Buddha Mother,' and the Buddha Mother did not reject you. Therefore, you can also become the true Buddha Son of this temple. When this old monk attains Nirvana, you can succeed as Abbot! And perceive the 'Maha Prajna Paramita Great Ming Mantra Sutra,' 'Kalachakra Vajra Secret Vehicle Yoga Sutra,' and 'Great Light Immeasurable Sutra'!"

On the peaks of the mountains, there lived a group of transcendent creatures—Snow Eagles!

【Snow Eagle (Gregarious)】

"Many thanks, Dharma King!"

Seeing Aaron stop, the Great Might Dharma King immediately began to introduce: "This is the 'Green Tara,' also known as the 'Tara Who Saves from the Eight Difficulties,' the first of the 'Twenty-One Taras' manifested by the 'Light Buddha Mother'!"

The other party was tall, with slightly pointed ears and dark skin; she was actually an elf, or rather—a Drow!

Seeing the Great Might Dharma King, this Drow did not step back to salute, but instead cast a flirtatious glance over.

"Since that is the case, Great Might, take the Buddha Son to the hermitage to live... prepare to open the Underworld passage in one month!"

But Aaron knew that this woman... was actually feeling an appetite!

The other path is quite arduous, but once successful, the future achievements will be limitless.

【Personal Skills: Accordion 99, Recorder 100, Harp 150, Wilderness Survival 87, Magic Potions 68, Alchemy 34, Thievery 88, Medicine 55, Singing 105, Transcription 88, Storytelling 421, Crafting Magic Items 200】

【Godhood Ability—Tongues, Immunity to Spells below Level 3, Shapechange】

"This is?"

Dharma King David performed a salute and led Aaron toward the meditation hut.

Her hair was piled high in a bun, adorned with a flower-vine crown; her upper body was bare, decorated with jewels and necklaces, and she sat cross-legged on a lotus throne in the 'Royal Ease' posture.

"It is said... the special environment of the Underworld is very beneficial for the cultivation of Secret Teachings disciples, which is why some large temples have preserved passages leading to the Underworld... but only those who are direct disciples may enter!"

In reality... Aaron had no choice!

"The test of the cycle of life and death... is conducted within the Underworld! This is also the key to entering the Underworld and saving the chosen of the God of War!"

Dharma King David explained directly: "The Buddha Mother has benevolent forms, wrathful forms, three-life forms, and countless incarnations... among them are Bodhisattvas, Arhats, and Dharmapalas... such as the Dakini, the Ushnisha Vijaya Buddha Mother, and so on..."

【Divine Value: 20 (Faint Divinity) (All Attributes +1)】

Dharma King David said with a hint of regret: "Actually, at the time, I felt this girl even had the potential to make the Bright Buddha Mother manifest and bestow a divine seed."

Aaron paced between the floors of the pavilion, his gaze sweeping over the various scriptures.

【Challenge Rating: 21】

After completing the promotion and point allocation, he suddenly stood up and threw a punch into the void.

Aaron seemed to be pondering.

"Zhuoma... this girl has great wisdom, having listened to the Abbot preach, and she is also one gifted with a divine seed, having begun to practice the Secret Mantra; it is just a pity she is not like the Buddha Son, having only received the grace of a Bodhisattva!"

【Specialty: Bodhicitta, Supreme Perfect Enlightenment (Legend)】

"So... 'Bright Buddha Mother' has another meaning, with 'Red' encompassing 'Radiance'? Looking at it this way, I must obtain the fundamental methods of Snow Eagle Temple—the 'Great Prajna Paramita Bright Mantra Scripture', the 'Kalachakra Tantra Yoga Scripture', and the 'Great Bright Immeasurable Scripture'; this might be very helpful for refining the Great Sun Divinity!"

"Greetings, Buddha Son!"

Aaron was speechless.

Far from being afraid, Zhuoma's face instead revealed a look of anticipation, and she spoke a few more words with Dharma King David.

【You have comprehended—'Peacock Swallowing Heaven Secret Mantra'!】

"Isn't this the Buddha Son?"

Aaron casually picked up a copy of the "Peacock Inspiration Mantra Scripture" and flipped through a few pages.

【Specialty: Garuda Protector Secret Mantra Blessing】

Several Dharma Kings surrounded an old monk as they emerged; Kongxing pressed his palms together and smiled.

But when Aaron entered the main hall, what he saw was infinite light!

Immeasurable Light! Immeasurable Life!

And within this infinite light, a fleshy Mother Tree was growing vigorously, its branches hung with various bloody organs and human skin, swaying slightly...

Dharma King David pressed his palms together: "A Wu monk? Just by listening to me speak a few words, you have already entered the threshold of a Wu monk? The Buddha Son is indeed gifted and possesses great wisdom!"

"What about that one just now?"

Aaron pointed at the back of Zhuoma as she left.

"Not bad, relying on this terrain, even if a professional army came, they would be killed alive by the snow eagles!"

A series of Secret Teachings Wu monk skills left Aaron almost overwhelmed.

On the lotus throne, there was only one Buddha Mother with a compassionate face.

A Wu monk's fist—how could it not hurt when it hits someone?

"Not only the three protective palms and the three Wu monk fists... even the Legendary-level Penetrating Force has been comprehended. Besides that, there are Legendary Specialties?"

Just a single glance made one feel as if they were in the midst of the eight sufferings, needing the other's salvation to be liberated.

Upon entering Snow Eagle Temple, Aaron saw a statue.

Dharma King David did not mind, assuming the young man was thin-skinned, and led Aaron to the main hall.

He arrived at the Scripture Depository.

The yellow-robed monks guarding the door of the Scripture Depository saw Aaron approaching, immediately saluted, and cleared the path.

It is not impossible that after Abbot Kongxing passes away, this person will be the one to inherit his throne!

Her eyes were moist and her voice was soft and alluring; she seemed deeply moved, even wanting to lean in proactively, her nose tip lightly sniffing the scent on Aaron.

"I must thank the Dharma King for the help."

Inside the main hall, what was worshipped was naturally the 'Bright Buddha Mother'.

【Divine Power: 30】

Snow Eagle Temple.

"Jade Maiden Scripture", "Buddha's Bequeathed Teaching Scripture", "Arrow Parable Scripture", "Silver Maiden Scripture"...

After all, Abbot Kongxing had already said that apart from a few Supreme secret scriptures, all other methods were open to be taught!

And those few secret scriptures were not in the Scripture Depository! Naturally, there were no restrictions.

This Abbot's sudden choice of words was also quite interesting.

Dharma King David scolded him, but did not mind: "How is your Buddha Dharma cultivation coming along? Tonight, let this Buddha check it thoroughly..."

"Wait!"

Reporting the situation

Aaron had to admit that the other party was indeed very beautiful, with delicate features and a hot body; even though she was wearing a simple monk's robe, the hem was slit all the way to the top of her thigh, half-exposing her breasts, and carrying a sense of seduction.

【Description: These are a group of extraordinary creatures living on the peaks of the mountains. Due to the enlightenment of the high monks of Snow Eagle Temple, their intelligence is very high, and they have evolved special abilities; their leader has long since stepped into the Legend realm...】

Furthermore, he even sensed a similar aura of the Secret Mantra from Zhuoma!

This phenomenon lasted only for an instant before dissipating.

A Buddha Son with such outstanding talent who also knows when to advance or retreat will surely achieve great things in the future.

This temple was built atop a high mountain, with snow-capped peaks visible all around.

Aaron sighed in admiration inwardly, followed the Dharma King David into Snow Eagle Temple, and prepared to head to the Mahavira Hall to pay respects to the Abbot.

Abbot Kongxing said.

The joints in his body popped in unison, and the air in front of him let out a loud bang, as if it had been blasted apart!

Kongxing did not even look at Dharma King Dacheng: "Of course... if you wish to become the true Buddha Son of this temple, you must, like all other monks, endure the trial of the cycle of life and death before you can attain the true fruit!"

However, he still added one point of free Divine Attribute to Strength!

He flipped through a few more scriptures and gained a great deal of insight from them.

Aaron feared nothing more than 'Red', and upon hearing this, his face remained indifferent, merely returning the salute, a temperament that made the likes of Dharma King Dacheng hold him in even higher regard.

And the 'Ten Directions Supreme Peacock Ming King Buddha Mother' is clearly of the Buddha level!

To be able to perceive the battle avatar of the 'Light Buddha Mother' from a Dharmapala, he is likely the only one capable of doing so.

'The gods of the Secret Teachings control the passages to the Underworld; the fallen gods cannot be resurrected, and only they themselves can open the passages to send in some disciples for training...'

When passing by a courtyard, a black-skinned girl suddenly walked out from within!

Aaron's eyes narrowed.

And beneath Her throne, there were eight specific disaster manifestations, including a lion, an elephant, a Python, and water and fire.

Once the Buddha Son has the opportunity to succeed as Abbot, it is their interests as the several great Dharma Kings that will be harmed!

……

【Godhood Value: 3】

Aaron appeared quite humble.

'This feeling... Sagittarius Elephant-Nosed Heaven, could it be a subordinate of this Secret Teachings god?'

One has to give some face, after all.

Aaron's expression remained unchanged as he looked at this Drow elf.

At this moment, Aaron was sitting cross-legged facing the lake.

When it came time to part ways, he suddenly spoke up and said: "The trial of the cycle of life and death is no small matter; one careless step and you will be completely lost to the Underworld... To pass, you must fully comprehend the White Bone Contemplation, the Giant Corpse Contemplation..."

【Professional Skills: Inspiring Score, Courage Score, Weakening Score, Rhythmic Sound, Wind Chord, Fire Chord, Secret Mantra, Fear Song, Hell Psalm (Legend), Diamond Palm, Body Protection Palm, Crushing Palm, Flame Fist, Cold Ice Fist, Lightning Fist, Penetrating Force (Legend)!】

Aaron's mouth twitched; a Dharmapala is merely the lowest rank among the gods of the Secret Teachings.

Of course, in Aaron's eyes, it was just a scene of an adulterer and that-thing flirting with each other.

If they had previously regarded him as a close junior, they now regarded him as a competitor—and one that harmed their own interests at that!

'I felt killing intent... Heh...'

Some women, even in a plain monk's robe, can wear it with infinite charm.

It was clear that the appearance of the 'Light Buddha Mother' just now was also a kind of test.

【Individual Average Attributes: Strength 20, Agility 25, Constitution 13, Intelligence 16, Perception 17, Charisma 19】

Aaron's expression remained unchanged as he gazed at Kongxing.

【Personal Feats: Scholar, Cold Resistance, Mobile Spellcasting, Spell Penetration, Intuitive Evasion, Stealth, Extraordinary Charisma, Extraordinary Intelligence】

"Hee hee..."

It is said that the Wu monk is a profession very similar to the Paladin; after stepping into the Legend stage, they all gain the 'Transcendence' feat, which greatly slows the consumption of vitality and keeps them forever young!

Just as Aaron was deep in thought, a fragrant breeze drifted by.

Of these two paths, one is to become the head of a branch, which is easy and the simplest.

……

Aaron nodded repeatedly as he listened, then turned through several more courtyards.

Thanks to all you book friends, everything is going smoothly, and Wenchao is now officially licensed, so I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the book friends for your blessings.

Additionally, there are still some troublesome matters to wrap up, so I will try my best to resume updates in the next few days, but they may be unstable; I hope you all understand...
