737: The things of reincarnation, cause and effect are too great
"..."
Xie Weilou looked at the black lamp inside the coffin.
This black lamp was extremely unusual; it gave him a very strange feeling, but he could be certain that it was a supreme treasure, so it was worth a try.
After a moment of contemplation, he summoned the heaven suppressing stele, holding it in his left hand while reaching directly for the black lamp with his right.
If any special situation arose, he could directly smash the heaven suppressing stele out.
After grabbing the black lamp, he didn't feel anything amiss, nor did anything strange happen.
"Hmm?"
Xie Weilou picked up the black lamp and felt it was somewhat heavy; apart from that, there were no other abnormalities.
"How is it?"
Yan Ruyi's voice came through.
Xie Weilou looked at the black lamp in his hand: "I've picked it up, and it seems nothing special has happened."
After hearing this, Yan Ruyi fell silent. After a while, she said in a deep voice: "Keep it well."
It had actually been picked up just like that? And nothing else special had happened? It was very strange!
"Alright!"
Xie Weilou put the black lamp into his Storage Ring.
He then looked at the piece of human skin in the coffin. Without hesitation, he decisively put it away, and again, nothing special happened.
This human skin and this black lamp were in the same coffin; they must not be simple.
After putting away the human skin.
Xie Weilou glanced at the clay Buddha statue, feeling that it might be a Great Ferocity. If he could collect it, it might have peerless effects.
Although Yan Ruyi had told him not to set his sights on this item, he still had a tiny idea about it.
"..."
Xie Weilou tentatively took a step towards the clay Buddha statue.
Hum!
The stick of blood-colored incense in front of the clay Buddha statue began to vibrate. At the top, bursts of blood-red light emerged, as if it were about to ignite.
The clay Buddha statue vibrated frantically, and dense runes instantly appeared on its body. A power of annihilation permeated the air, locking onto Xie Weilou.
At the same time, from the distant heaven and earth, an invisible pressure seemed to strike, piercing through the ages and sealing off this piece of heaven and earth.
Crack!
The Ghost Temple was enveloped by that pressure, and the surrounding space continuously cracked.
"..."
Xie Weilou's gaze tightened; he only felt his Divine Soul trembling and found it difficult to breathe. He immediately retreated, holding the heaven suppressing stele.
As soon as he retreated, that pressure directly dissipated. The clay Buddha statue and the incense stick returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.
"Too weird."
Xie Weilou put away the heaven suppressing stele and took a deep look at the clay Buddha statue. He no longer set his sights on it; one must leave a margin in everything one does.
He had already collected the black lamp and that piece of human skin this time; if he were too greedy, he feared it would cause major problems.
Rumble!
Outside the Ghost Temple, a roaring sound erupted. Xie Weilou walked out of the Ghost Temple.
Heartless and the other three appeared again; their battle seemed to have ended.
All four of them were pale, blood spilling from the corners of their mouths, with expressions of horror in their eyes.
Their battle had actually only just begun.
But for some reason, a terrifying pressure had suddenly struck, shattering space, crushing their Domains, and leaving them severely injured.
That pressure was too terrifying, making them feel as small as ants, as if they would be crushed into powder in an instant.
Xie Weilou looked at the four of them: "It ended so quickly?"
The Pure Yang Holy Son stared at Xie Weilou: "What did you do?"
This person had actually entered the Ghost Temple. The aura of the Evil Spirits inside the Ghost Temple had disappeared, and the eight Palace Knocking Elders from the two Holy Lands had been wiped out.
Had the sudden appearance of that terrifying pressure just now been related to this person?
Xie Weilou said in surprise: "Did I do anything? I just slaughtered eight Kou Gong Realm experts and cut down a few Evil Spirits... However, next, I could cut down the two Saints."
Upon hearing this, the Pure Yang Holy Son and the Longevity Holy Son felt their hearts tighten.
This guy cut down eight Palace Knocking experts? And four Creation Evil Spirits?
"Retreat!"
The two of them felt their hearts hair-raising; without the slightest hesitation, they turned and fled.
In the blink of an eye.
The Pure Yang Holy Son and the Longevity Holy Son were already far away, and Xie Weilou did not pursue them.
Heartless stared at Xie Weilou with a face full of surprise: "Brother Xie, what on earth did you do?"
Xie Weilou smiled faintly: "Just cut down eight Palace Knocking experts and four Creation Evil Spirits."
"Ruthless person!"
Fu Aniu took a deep look at Xie Weilou and did not doubt Xie Weilou's words.
Heartless rubbed his hands gently: "What is inside the Ghost Temple?"
Xie Weilou said: "Inside, there is a clay Buddha statue, a stick of incense, a sarira, and a treasure bottle. Those are things I specifically left for you. If you are interested, you can go in and take them."
"A clay Buddha statue? A stick of incense?"
Heartless's body trembled, and he hurriedly said: "I will just take the sarira and the treasure bottle; the statue and the incense stick can be left for Fellow Daoist Fu."
As he spoke, he instantly rushed into the Ghost Temple.
Fu Aniu did not hesitate either and quickly entered the Ghost Temple.
A few breaths later.
The two walked out.
Heartless was holding the sarira bead, while Fu Aniu was holding the treasure bottle.
Xie Weilou looked at the two with a surprised expression: "Why didn't you take that clay Buddha statue and that stick of incense? Those are good things."
Heartless and Fu Aniu had speechless expressions on their faces. If they were really good things, would you have left them for us?
It was clearly a trap!
Just like that coffin; it was empty inside, so the good things must have all been taken away by Xie Weilou.
This guy was probably eyeing that statue and that incense stick, but since he had no other way, he wanted to let them try their hand at it.
Heartless put away the sarira bead and said with a serious expression: "The Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Derivation is forty-nine; one must leave a margin!"
Fu Aniu put the treasure bottle into his sleeve and said with a sincere face: "I, Fu, have never been a greedy person."
Xie Weilou sized up the two, a smile appearing on his face. He looked at Heartless: "Great Master Heartless, do you know the origin of that clay Buddha statue?"
Judging from Heartless's previous expression, this guy should know something.
This monk was definitely no pushover; when encountering good things, how could he let them go? He probably knew something, which was why he dared not act rashly.
Heartless sighed: "There are ancient records in Buddhism that this is an item of Reincarnation, involving too much Karma. There was once a peerless expert who set their sights on this item, and as a result, their entire clan was wiped out."
If that clay Buddha statue did not involve too much, he would definitely have taken action to retrieve it.
Unfortunately, some things involve too much Karma and cannot be touched; otherwise, it is a dead end.
Xie Weilou said: "Since it involves too much Karma, then we cannot touch it. There are still some Storage Rings here; you should all collect them! Next, we will hunt down the Pure Yang Holy Son and the Longevity Holy Son. They must have obtained many good things on the island..."
Why can others come to seize Opportunities from him? Can't he seize others' Opportunities?
"Alright!"
Heartless and Fu Aniu hurriedly collected some of the Storage Rings on the ground. Even a mosquito is meat no matter how small it is; they couldn't let it go.
Fu Aniu quickly put away the bronze war puppet.
The two then took out Medicinal Pills and consumed them.
Xie Weilou said: "Let's go!"
The three of them did not hesitate and immediately rushed towards the distance...
