In the Glazed Buddha Sect, Li Xiaotian looked on in disbelief, his heart filled with awe as he gazed at the magnificent nine-tiered golden structure before him.
This was the Sutra Depository of the Medicine Buddha Sect!
It did not exist in reality but in the spiritual realm of a person. One could only enter here by meditating on a Buddhist altar.
Li Xiaotian stepped onto the ground, applying a slight force, and was even more astonished. The feeling was so real, nothing like an illusion.
He suspected this was the true foundation of the Medicine Buddha, far surpassing the external medicinal fields and divine mountains compared to this Sutra Depository.
"Benefactor Li, this is the Mind Cultivation Scripture you desire. This Buddhist teaching can only be imparted here."
The Glazed Bodhisattva suddenly appeared at the entrance of the Sutra Depository, holding a glowing orb radiating golden light, and walked towards Li Xiaotian.
"The true Mind Cultivation Scripture can only be imparted here."
The Glazed Bodhisattva spoke, a faint smile on her face.
Li Xiaotian was taken aback. "Only imparted here?" he wondered. "Can it not be done elsewhere?"
He decided to get it first. Once he learned it, he was confident he could find a way to teach it to his brothers in the Dragon King Hall.
With this thought, Li Xiaotian quickly stepped forward and reached out to receive the Mind Cultivation Scripture.
*Buzz!*
Instantly, the glowing orb dispersed, transforming into specks of starlight that floated into Li Xiaotian's body. Immediately, clear and resonant chanting echoed in his mind.
Li Xiaotian's expression turned to one of surprise. A page of golden Buddhist scripture appeared in his mind, each character shimmering with golden light, invigorating his spirit.
The Mind Cultivation Scripture had appeared in his mind!
Following this, Li Xiaotian's eyes flashed with sharp light, golden characters flowing within them as whispers filled his ears.
It was as if countless Buddhas were collectively reciting scriptures in an unknowable place, purifying Li Xiaotian's soul.
Whether it felt like a long time or just an instant, Li Xiaotian suddenly awoke, a flicker of joy in his eyes.
He had obtained the Mind Cultivation Scripture!
It was then that he understood the Glazed Bodhisattva's words. With a thought, a chanting sound arose in his mind, but he could clearly discern each sound. However, the syllables were of a nature that could not be described by words.
It was like the babbling of an infant, or the murmur of some powerful entity, audible only to himself but impossible to articulate.
Then, Li Xiaotian frowned. "If that's the case, won't I be unable to pass it on to others?" he wondered. "My brothers in the Dragon King Hall won't be able to learn it either?"
This was not the outcome he desired. He wanted all the demon soldiers in the Dragon King Hall to learn the Mind Cultivation Scripture, so that their lost intellect and emotions could be awakened.
"Benefactor Li, you may awaken now."
As he pondered, the Glazed Bodhisattva's voice sounded in Li Xiaotian's ears. He then opened his eyes, and the scene before him had returned to the Buddhist altar.
"I hope Benefactor Li will honor your promise and not disseminate the Mind Cultivation Scripture outside!"
Before Li Xiaotian could speak, the Glazed Bodhisattva continued, her tone carrying a hint of seriousness.
Li Xiaotian raised an eyebrow. "Is this intentional?" he thought. "This Mind Cultivation Scripture cannot be passed on! How can I teach it to others?"
"Rest assured, Bodhisattva."
Despite his immense dissatisfaction, Li Xiaotian quickly replied verbally. He refused to believe that having learned the Mind Cultivation Scripture, he wouldn't find a way to teach it to others.
As for his promise, of course, the brothers of the Dragon King Hall were his own people, so teaching them would not count as disseminating it outside.
*Buzz!*
Suddenly, a figure was seen rapidly flying towards them from a distance. It was Asan. His aura was unstable, clearly indicating he had just engaged in combat.
"Why is the Buddha Son in such a hurry?"
The Glazed Bodhisattva nearby noticed the approaching figure and beckoned, causing Asan to appear on the Buddhist altar.
However, upon his arrival, Asan did not respond to the Glazed Bodhisattva. Instead, he looked at Li Xiaotian, a flicker of apology in his eyes, and then quickly spoke.
"Benefactor Li, something has happened! The Blissful Buddha Son led people to the Dragon King Hall camp and captured your wife and daughter. By the time I arrived, it was already too late."
*Boom!!!*
As soon as Asan finished speaking, a surge of ferocious energy erupted from Li Xiaotian, and a terrifying killing intent instantly swept across the heavens and earth.
*Boom!*
Immediately after, Li Xiaotian transformed into a stream of light and charged out of the Medicine Buddha Sect.
The Glazed Bodhisattva on the Buddhist altar's eyes widened in shock. The killing intent Li Xiaotian had just displayed was even more potent than before, indicating he had been concealing his strength.
However, upon hearing Asan's news, the Glazed Bodhisattva's expression also changed. Unable to maintain her composure, her face fell, and her tone became laced with anger.
"What the Blissful Buddha Son did is rather despicable! He is unworthy of being a Buddha cultivator!"
"Amitabha, Bodhisattva, junior never expected my junior brother Blissful would commit such a base act. By doing this, he will only make things worse. Benefactor Li will go mad."
Asan spoke, his heart also filled with anger. As Buddha cultivators, even if they held grudges, they would not resort to despicable means to deal with their enemies.
The Blissful Buddha Son's capture of Li Xiaotian's wife and daughter had clearly crossed a line.
Asan knew clearly that the Blissful Buddha Son had underestimated Li Xiaotian. Perhaps no one in the entire Buddha Prefecture knew better than he did how terrifying the power Li Xiaotian could wield was.
The Ancient Village! The War Sect! The Daoist Sect! The powerful individuals from these factions were all on good terms with Li Xiaotian.
If Li Xiaotian were to go mad and rally these forces, the Blissful Buddha Sect could face annihilation!
And then, to protect the Blissful Buddha Sect, sects like the Buddhist Sect and the Medicine Buddha Sect, as top-tier factions in the Buddha Prefecture, would be forced to intervene. This could potentially lead to a major war between the two prefectures.
In essence, the Blissful Buddha Son had caused a monumental disaster this time.
At the same time, in the mountain forest tens of miles outside Glazed City, Li Xiaotian descended from the sky, his terrifying killing intent permeating the surroundings.
This was the camp of the Dragon King Hall warriors. Now, the camp was a scene of ruins, the smell of blood lingering in the air, and cries of agony echoing throughout.
"King!"
"The King has returned!"
"King! The Blissful Buddha Son led people to raid the camp and took the Mistress and Princess Tiantian, along with Commander Fifteen and Commander Anmei."
Within the camp, the Dragon King Hall warriors knelt on one knee, their faces filled with self-blame and anger.
They blamed themselves for failing to protect Li Xiaotian's wife and daughter, and they were angry because their Dragon King Hall had never been in such a wretched state before.
"King! We are ashamed! We failed to protect the Mistress and the Princess. We beg for your punishment!"
Countless Dragon King Hall warriors cried out, kneeling with faces full of remorse.
*Boom!!!*
A terrifying killing intent erupted from Li Xiaotian, making everyone present feel as if they were suffocating, unable to breathe.
"Blissful Buddha Sect!!! You shall die!!!"
Li Xiaotian gritted his teeth and roared, his eyes bloodshot, his heart filled with boundless killing intent.
His divine sense instantly expanded, covering over a thousand miles, searching everywhere for any trace of the Blissful Buddha Son and his entourage.
This action alerted numerous powerful individuals in the Buddha Prefecture. The most significant impact was felt by the powerful figures in Glazed City, who looked on in shock, sensing the immense killing intent contained within this divine sense.
