27: Weird Buddhist Sound
“…”
At this moment, Lin Ye ignored what the System was saying.
He squatted down on his own, picking up the string of prayer beads.
They were still constantly emitting resentment Qi.
Luo Weiyu had a map to this place and also possessed these prayer beads; it was too much of a coincidence.
His fingers lightly twisted the prayer beads, and they emitted a faint wailing sound.
Visible black Qi tried to corrode fresh flesh, but every time the black Qi landed on Lin Ye, it dissipated immediately as if it had received an electric shock.
“These prayer beads seem to be quite extraordinary…”
He had initially thought these prayer beads were merely forged from the ashes of ordinary Cultivators, but now, it seemed they were definitely not that simple.
Each prayer bead seemed to contain a Small World of its own.
To break through the Seal on the outside and enter the Small World within, Lin Ye’s current cultivation was simply insufficient.
It seemed the person who made these prayer beads was definitely a Great Power Experts!
At least, someone like Luo Weiyu, even given two hundred years, might not reach such a height.
Om… Just as Lin Ye was still examining the prayer beads in his hand, they suddenly flickered with a faint red light, and a wisp of black Qi slowly drifted towards the bronze coffin.
The bronze coffin… Seeing the bronze coffin not far away, Lin Ye’s expression became serious.
Luo Weiyu’s earlier appearance was still vivid in his mind.
Although the bronze coffin was now slightly ajar, it was definitely not that simple.
Because it was Lin Ye who had pushed Luo Weiyu into the bronze coffin, he naturally felt the bronze coffin’s suction.
If he wasn’t mistaken, the reason Luo Weiyu invited him here was to sacrifice him to this bronze coffin.
His Junior Sister, Zi Yuan, was also chosen to be sacrificed.
This bronze coffin required the blood of Prodigies to nourish it, and it needed two people.
Otherwise, why would Luo Weiyu go to such lengths?
“My Heaven’s Chosen destiny should be able to withstand it, right…”
Lin Ye muttered to himself, staring at the bronze coffin.
Opportunity was right in front of him; there was no reason to miss it!
Thinking of this, Lin Ye slowly walked towards the bronze coffin, reaching it within two breaths.
The closer he got, the more he could feel the gravitational pull; the blood in his body seemed to want to burst out uncontrollably. This bronze coffin was indeed extremely strange.
Just as Lin Ye was about to use the Spirit Sword in his hand to pry open the coffin lid, a burst of Buddha's Voice suddenly rang out from within the bronze coffin.
“Om, Mani Padme Hum…”
“Om, Mani Padme Hum…”
“…”
The grand Buddha's Voice echoed through the sky, shaking the entire tomb.
If Lin Ye could see outside now, he would find that the entire world was trembling! The compassionate, solemn, profound, and mysterious Zen sound was immensely vast, cleansing all defilement and worldly dust. The area around the dilapidated temple was bathed in a sacred and peaceful light.
The bronze coffin, which had been continuously emitting black Qi just moments before, now appeared so solemn and dignified.
This was definitely not an illusion!
The Buddha's Voice was as if it were right by his ear, causing Lin Ye’s Divine Soul to begin vibrating.
It was a long time before the Buddha's Voice finally subsided.
Thump, thump, thump… A series of heartbeats echoed in the tomb, as if some ancient creature was awakening.
The red prayer beads on his wrist began to tremble.
Lin Ye’s heart tightened, and he subconsciously turned his body sideways.
Boom!!!
A black claw slammed heavily onto the ground where he had just been standing.
Turning his head, he saw that at some unknown point, all the mummified corpses in the entire tomb had come to life, their empty eyes staring intently at Lin Ye.
“Ah!!! What are all these things?! You scared the System to death!”
The System shrieked in Lin Ye’s head.
Disable voice!
Ding-dong… With the sound of the electronic tone, Lin Ye directly turned off the System’s voice, and only then did it become quiet. He also began to observe the mummified corpses.
Buzz, buzz, buzz… The bronze coffin burst forth with a radiant glow.
The mummified corpses seemed to have received some command, and with a series of grating clicking sounds, they lunged at Lin Ye, baring their fangs and claws.
“No matter what demons or monsters you are, I shall cut you down with a single sword!”
Lin Ye twirled his Spirit Sword in a flourish, and a great sun appeared behind him.
The Pacifying Chaos Sword Art was divided into Sun and Moon chapters; previously, he had always used the Moon chapter.
But to deal with these mummified corpses, the Sun chapter was undoubtedly the best method.
Whoosh… The Qi Sea within Lin Ye’s body trembled wildly, and the vast, boundless ocean of spiritual power transformed into magma at this moment.
The great sun hung in the sky, incinerating all things.
The entire tomb was illuminated; the dark creatures had nowhere to hide. In the air, the dampness evaporated into mist.
At this moment, Lin Ye was completely enveloped by sunlight, his body erupting with flames like an immortal divine furnace. He was like a king reborn from fire, or like an ancient deity controlling flames.
His Divine Might was majestic and inviolable.
The Spirit Sword in his hand even turned crimson.
Facing the attacking mummified corpses, he fiercely swung his Spirit Sword.
Boom!!!
An explosion sounded, and scorching waves of fire directly surged towards the mummified corpses.
The tomb was impacted by the fire waves, and crimson light radiated in all directions. The floor tiles all turned fiery red, as if the gates of Hell had opened, and the Red Lotus Karmic Fire was about to incinerate everything.
This was an unimaginable power.
It was Lin Ye’s first time unleashing the Sun chapter of the Pacifying Chaos Sword Art, and he hadn’t expected it to be so terrifying!
The mummified corpses were incinerated the instant they touched the flames, leaving not even a speck of dust.
In just a moment, Lin Ye put away his Spirit Sword, the great sun behind him disappeared, and the surroundings once again plunged into darkness.
Lin Ye slowly walked forward. At this moment, the bronze coffin seemed to have “behaved” itself; let alone any Buddha's Voice, even the gravitational pull had vanished.
Bang!
He reached out and touched the bronze coffin. The Red Lotus Karmic Fire that seemed capable of incinerating everything just now had melted the tomb’s floor tiles, but the surface of the bronze coffin remained icy cold.
“What kind of material is this?”
Lin Ye was clearly very interested in the bronze coffin before him.
However, now was not the time to figure out its material. He needed to open it. Since Luo Weiyu knew so much, there must be some great Opportunity inside the bronze coffin.
Luo Weiyu was not destined to obtain it, but Lin Ye could!
Swish!
Lin Ye’s sword-finger slashed, and a white sword light instantly struck.
With a loud clang, the bronze coffin’s lid shifted slightly.
Seeing that this was effective, Lin Ye transformed his hands into sword-fingers and launched a barrage of attacks at the bronze coffin.
Clang, clang, clang, clang… The entire tomb was filled with a cloud of dust.
After an unknown amount of time, the crashing sounds stopped.
Looking around, the bronze coffin’s lid had been mostly pried open. The inside was shrouded in darkness, and nothing could be seen.
Seeing this, Lin Ye frowned slightly and kicked the crystal that Luo Weiyu had used for illumination earlier into the coffin.
The expected crashing sound never came.
It was as if the bronze coffin was a bottomless pit.
“Hmm?”
Lin Ye understood. Whether there was a creature inside the bronze coffin or not, this was intentionally luring him in.
