Chapter 255: Six Paths Reincarnation Space, Tathagata Divine Palm
Han White Jade Square was spotless as jade, with strands of immortal mist swirling around it, beautiful and magnificent, like a fairyland.
Before the light curtain at the center of the square, a monk in snow‑white robes with a transcendent bearing stood aloft, like an immortal buddha.
Meng Qi stared blankly at the scene, his mind shaken for a moment, feeling an indescribable daze.
Shakyamuni!
That thunder‑familiar name surfaced in his mind, and various thoughts churned uncontrollably.
Since the last time he saw him and learned that the monk's name was Shakyamuni, Meng Qi had spent these months searching for this mysterious monk in Shaolin Temple, but to no avail, as if the monk did not exist at all.
He never expected that the mysterious monk he had sought for so long would appear right before him, right in front of him.
Isn't this the Six Paths Reincarnation Space?
Having already accepted that he might have transmigrated into an infinite flow world, he now wondered whether he was overthinking.
This?
Thinking of this, Meng Qi's heart involuntarily trembled.
As Meng Qi's thoughts raced, Jiang Zhiwei and the others around him finished receiving the light‑pillar treatment from the Lord of the Six Paths Reincarnation and noticed the white‑robed monk at the center of the square.
Although they could not gauge the white‑robed monk's cultivation depth, they instantly sensed his extraordinariness.
That transcendent aura, like an immortal buddha's, far surpassed even their own highly cultivated sect elders.
At that moment they shared Meng Qi's suspicion, doubting that everything they had experienced—including this mysterious Six Paths Reincarnation Space—was connected to that white‑robed monk.
At the same time, their gazes toward the little monk beside them shifted, tinged with suspicion.
Having previously experienced the reincarnation worlds and just witnessed the Six Paths Reincarnation Space's powerful healing ability, they had already ruled out any link between this space and Shaolin Temple.
But now the sudden appearance of this mysterious monk in this space, with his unfathomable strength, made them suspect again that perhaps everything truly was connected to Shaolin Temple.
At this moment Meng Qi's mind was a whirl of thoughts; he ignored the glances of Jiang Zhiwei and the others and walked straight to the center of the square.
"Chan Master, we meet again!"
He respectfully bowed to the white‑robed monk before the light curtain, Meng Qi suppressing his excitement, and said, "Thank you, Chan Master, for your gift back then."
Feng Yi withdrew his gaze from the light curtain, glanced at the little monk beside him, and smiled, saying, "It's you, huh. No need for much ceremony—just a mutual exchange."
"I
Meng Qi looked at the white‑robed monk before him, countless thoughts surging in his mind, yet for a moment he did not know what to say.
To him, the name Shakyamuni was all too familiar.
In the world before Meng Qi's transmigration, that was the title of the World Honored One.
Having transmigrated to this world and seeing a mysterious monk whose name matched the World Honored One of his former world, how could Meng Qi's heart not be shaken to the core?
He even suspected that his identity as a transmigrator might have been exposed!
After all, before this person, he likely could keep no secrets.
Sensing Meng Qi's mental fluctuation, Feng Yi flashed a faint smile and said, "It's merely transmigration—no need to worry overly. One flower, one world; one leaf, one bodhi; the myriad worlds are countless. To the beings of the worlds you previously entered and that other world, aren't you essentially transmigrators from that world?"
Damn it!
This big shot really knows I'm a transmigrator!
Meng Qi widened his eyes, staring in shock at the white‑robed monk before him.
Although he had vaguely guessed it, receiving the confirmation still left Meng Qi with a buzzing sensation in his head.
He never expected that, shortly after arriving in this world, his transmigrator identity would be discovered right away by this big shot before him.
Moreover, the other party acted as if it were no big deal, as though transmigrators like him were commonplace and not worth worrying about.
This gave Meng Qi a strange feeling.
Who hasn't seen a transmigrator blast heaven, earth, and air? How come I, having done nothing yet, am already spotted by this big shot?
Am I perhaps the biggest failure of a transmigrator?
Thinking this, Meng Qi's heart gave a sudden jolt.
Could this big shot actually be the legendary Buddha of this realm, famed as the equal of the Dao Venerable?
What connection could there be between the world before my transmigration and this one?
Thinking of the little jade Buddha he brought when he transmigrated, Meng Qi even suspected that his transmigration might be linked to this big shot before him.
No wonder he ended up entering this mysterious Six Paths Reincarnation Space!
Before Meng Qi's thoughts could fully form, Feng Yi seemed to see through him, shook his head, and said, "Your transmigration has nothing to do with me; as for the Six Paths Reincarnation Space, there is someone else behind it, and its master is not me."
"Ah?"
Meng Qi first froze, then instantly grasped the information revealed in the big shot's words.
First, his transmigration indeed involved some existence, but not this big shot before him.
Second, this Six Paths Reincarnation Space is not merely a fixed program; behind it lies a true master.
Moreover, his transmigration is very likely connected to that master behind the Six Paths Reincarnation Space.
Thinking this, Meng Qi's heart involuntarily turned cold, feeling as if everything about him were firmly gripped by an invisible hand.
At that moment, seeing the white‑robed monk before him as a lifeline, he hurriedly put on a pleading expression and said, "Big shot, do you know who made me transmigrate into this world? Is it related to.
Having said that, realizing he was still inside the Six Paths Reincarnation Space, Meng Qi hastily stopped his words.
Glancing at Meng Qi, Feng Yi slightly shook his head and said, "You're still far too weak; knowing these things would do you no good. When you grow stronger in the future, you'll naturally understand all of this."
After saying that, Feng Yi turned his gaze back to the light curtain, where numerous peerless divine skills of the other shore were recorded.
He naturally understood what Meng Qi wanted to ask.
Behind this Six Paths Reincarnation Space stand many great beings, including the Water Ancestor, the Seven Kill Daoist, the Devil Lord, Lu Ya, the Fengdu Great Emperor, and the Demon Buddha, among others.
The entire Six Paths Reincarnation Space was jointly constructed by those great beings using the Reincarnation Seal and the Investiture of the Gods as foundations, to help them achieve various goals—such as nurturing dao markers and fish, probing the secrets of other great beings, gathering intelligence, and so on.
Meng Qi's transmigration was orchestrated single‑handedly by the Demon Buddha, aimed at cultivating a fish that could help him escape the seal.
However, with the Three Pure Ones—the realm's strongest black evil force—present, the Demon Buddha's plan is doomed to fail, and it will ultimately become nourishment that helps Meng Qi fully perfect the Three Pure Ones' Great Dao.
These secrets, Fengyi naturally would not directly tell Mengqi.
Firstly, as he previously said, Mengqi's current strength is too weak; knowing these brings no benefit.
Secondly, Fengyi does not now want to completely break face with those great powers behind the Six Paths of Reincarnation Space.
Although to outsiders, this incarnation of his seems related to the Buddha, which would make the great powers behind the Six Paths of Reincarnation Space wary.
But Fengyi himself is very clear; he is merely relying on the name of the Buddha of this realm's heavens, and actually has not much relation with the Buddha of this realm's heavens.
Although with his true self's strength, he does not fear the remaining masters of the Six Paths of Reincarnation aside from the Demon Buddha and Fengdu Great Emperor.
But after all, he is merely a special incarnation; it would naturally be best not to draw upon his true self's power, otherwise, if those exalted heavenly wills of the Other Shore notice something, it would not be too wonderful for Fengyi.
Therefore, Fengyi's visit to this Six Paths of Reincarnation Space this time is actually just to come and sweep away autumn winds, to pluck a bit of wool from the masters of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, without the idea of completely taking it for himself.
At least for now there is none.
Even if one wanted to seize the Six Paths of Reincarnation Space, one would have to wait until one's true self or some of one's incarnations have a being that truly achieved the Other Shore.
With thoughts turning in his mind, after Fengyi glanced for a moment, he directed his gaze onto the "Tathagata Divine Palm" on the light curtain.
The other Other Shore-level supreme divine arts are more or less incomplete, whereas this art, originating from a Buddha of the Half-Dao Fruit level, is a complete and perfect state.
This all comes from the Demon Buddha Ananda, who received the Buddha's personal transmission, was acclaimed as the Buddha's successor, and is a treacherous disciple.
However, after examining it for a moment, looking at the string of zeros of merit behind the Tathagata Divine Palm, Fengyi couldn't help but frown, his voice low as he said: "This is too expensive!"
The moment Fengyi's voice fell, the entire Six Paths of Reincarnation Space involuntarily trembled.
As if understanding Fengyi's words, the light curtain at the center of the plaza constantly trembled, as if hesitating about something, and the text on it kept changing.
After a good while, the merit behind the Tathagata Divine Palm, this Other Shore-level supreme divine art on the light curtain, changed from one million merit directly to zero merit.
Damn!
Beside him, Mengqi stared dumbfounded at this scene, unable to return to his senses for a long time, with only one thought in his mind.
As expected of a big shot, this even works!
This is a threat, right?
This is definitely a threat, right?
This is a direct threat?
From one million to zero, what's the difference from outright robbery!
At this moment, Mengqi had the impulse to directly redeem the Tathagata Divine Palm, after all, it would directly save an astronomical amount of merit.
Of course, although his heart burned, Mengqi forcibly suppressed his suicidal thought.
From this big shot's recent words, Mengqi understood that behind the Six Paths of Reincarnation Space there is a true master, and possibly a powerful one.
The price before him is obviously something this big shot obtained by "winning over with reason" from the master behind the Six Paths of Reincarnation Space; setting aside whether he can redeem it, even if he truly succeeded in redemption, once this big shot leaves, the master behind the Six Paths of Reincarnation Space has a hundred ways to kill him.
Although the divine art is good, one also needs to keep one's life to cultivate!
On the other side, seeing the Tathagata Divine Palm's price plummet, Fengyi's eyes showed a faint smile, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion.
The Buddha's identity is truly useful!
This scene is even better than he originally anticipated!
I didn't expect those behind the Six Paths of Reincarnation Space to be so wary of the Buddha!
Choosing to occupy the Buddha's name was truly the right choice!
With thoughts turning in his mind, Fengyi also was not polite; this is a supreme legacy left by a half-transcendent being, and in the other realms it would be utterly impossible to obtain so easily.
He originally came with the idea of plucking wool from the masters of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, so naturally he could not give up.
Connecting his mind and spirit to the light curtain before him, Fengyi directly chose to redeem the Tathagata Divine Palm.
Hum
A grand sound of scriptures rang out, and a crystal-clear relic appeared before Fengyi, surrounded by Buddhist light, exuding a mysterious Buddhist aura of compassion and tranquility, as if it contained a complete Buddhist pure land.
However, the Buddhist light flickering in Fengyi's eyes faintly reflected from the relic's core a barely visible black-red reversed swastika character, filled with endless demonic intent, completely opposite to the Buddhist aura displayed outwardly.
"'Demon Buddha. Testing?'"
This thought arose in his mind; Fengyi's expression did not change much, he directly reached out and grabbed the relic, storing it in his bosom.
Although the Demon Buddha is an Other Shore being, he was tightly sealed by the Buddha and Yuanshi Tianzun, two supreme existences, due to having offended too many, and cannot truly manifest his Other Shore power.
If the Demon Buddha himself could emerge from the seals of the Buddha and Yuanshi Tianzun, Fengyi might still be wary a bit.
But merely a relic containing the inheritance of the Tathagata Divine Palm, Fengyi naturally has no fear.
Anyway, he is only contemplating the Great Dao contained within, and will not follow its cultivation completely.
Beside him, Mengqi, upon seeing that relic, suddenly felt a strong desire, as if he saw another himself.
After regaining his senses, his heart gave rise to a hint of doubt, not understanding why he would have such an absurd feeling.
At the same time, seeing the merit of the Tathagata Divine Palm on the light curtain return to one million, he couldn't help but click his tongue in wonder; the price just now was indeed limited to the big shot.
If one day I could also be like the big shot before me, merely with a sentence making the existence behind the Six Paths of Reincarnation Space so wary, that would be great.
Then perhaps I could break free from the control of that mysterious existence that made me transmigrate, and obtain true freedom.
On the other side, after putting away the inheritance of the Tathagata Divine Palm, Feng Yi was about to continue examining the other techniques on the light screen when he saw the light screen constantly shifting, as if rejecting him.
Seeing this, Feng Yi no longer insisted; instead, he turned his gaze to the few people around him.
Jiang Zhiwei, Zhang Yuanshan, and the others around them felt their hearts tremble; they only felt that the white-clad monk's eyes were profoundly deep to the extreme, making them seem to behold the vast starry sky, unfathomable.
They hastily bowed, preparing to say something.
But before they could speak, Feng Yi seemed to already know their thoughts, shook his head, and said, "I am not a person of the Shaolin."
