This white-robed Guanyin is first-rate in appearance, status, and martial arts.
"Six beads of the Red Sect of Esoteric Buddhism greet Your Highness the Tang Emperor and Your Highness the Prince of Jing'an."
The Six-Bead Dharma King glanced behind Li Chang'an, her eyes showing some surprise, as she did not see any Buddhists.
"May I ask Your Highness, which of your subordinates was the one who just used the Tantric martial arts?"
Li Chang'an said, "It is indeed I, the King."
Even the well-informed and knowledgeable Six-Bead Dharma King couldn't help but be somewhat stunned.
"Your Highness is not a Buddhist, how could you possibly practice Tantric techniques!"
Li Chang'an said, "Not only have I cultivated, but I have also made some progress."
"Since His Holiness the Dharma King is here today, I would also like to test the quality of Tantric practices."
The Six-Bead Dharma King frowned and said, "Does Your Highness wish to spar with me?"
Li Chang'an did not reply, but pointed to the bright yellow celestial talisman not far away.
"I would like to try and see if I can make the Heavenly Talisman burn?"
As soon as Li Chang'an finished speaking, the white-robed Guanyin shook her head.
"Your Highness is not very old. Without decades of arduous practice, it is difficult to achieve anything in Tantric Buddhism."
"Even if the prince has learned some martial arts moves, it is only a superficial understanding of magic power or magic body."
Prince Jing'an also said, "Chang'an, only practitioners of Buddhism and Taoism can do such things."
"How can one comprehend the secrets of Buddhism without reciting scriptures for decades?"
"We can just take a look; why bother testing it?"
Zhao Heng only hoped that Li Chang'an would be in a good mood and release Zhao Xun as soon as possible.
The Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain, who had just experienced a false alarm, also noticed the situation here.
As a Daoist court supported by the imperial family, they looked down on a vassal king like Li Chang'an.
"Isn't that Emperor Li Chang'an of Tang?"
"Does he also want to try burning this celestial talisman?"
"We, the several Celestial Masters, have been cultivating day and night for over a decade, but we still haven't succeeded!"
"Li Chang'an is so young, he's really overestimating himself. Just wait and see how he makes a fool of himself!"
The white-robed Guanyin failed to deliver the deceased, and the people in the city began to disperse.
Sighs rose and fell throughout the streets and alleys of Xiangfan.
Suddenly, something strange happened!
Another burst of chanting arose in the air!
This time, the chanting was more resonant and spread further!
Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted, "Look, it's a Buddhist bell!"
Everyone looked towards Diaoyutai, where a golden bell shadow was slowly growing!
"This Buddhist bell is even more solid than the prayer wheel from before!"
"The Buddhist bell emits a more concentrated stream of scriptures!"
"What an amazing Buddhist bell! Listening to it brings a sense of peace and tranquility!"
Soon, the hopes of the people in the city were rekindled!
On the fishing platform.
Li Chang'an, who is under the heavy protection of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, is activating the Prajna Heart Bell with all his might!
"A caring heart, a fearless heart, a free heart!"
"The Boundless Bell, the Evil-Dispelling Bell, the Prajna Bell!"
The Prajna Heart Bell is the cultivation of the Buddhist Dharma Mind, and Li Chang'an has already cultivated it to its ultimate level!
The phantom images of dragons and elephants surged and churned around Li Chang'an's body!
Tiny sparks of fire and lightning formed around the heart-shaped bell!
The elegant and ethereal white-robed Guanyin was completely dumbfounded!
A young man who hasn't even become a monk has mastered Tantric practices to this extent!
The mind is the key to cultivating the Dharma!
Dragon and Elephant Body Cultivation Technique!
Thunder and fire become magical power!
The white-robed Guanyin murmured incredulously to herself!
"Great Vajra Realm!"
"How could a martial artist possibly reach the Great Vajra realm!"
The White-Robed Guanyin was not mistaken; Li Chang'an had already broken through the thirteenth level of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill on his way to Qingzhou.
Therefore, Li Chang'an has now reached the Great Vajra Martial Warrior realm, and is invincible to anyone below the level of a terrestrial immortal!
[Cultivation Level: Martial Artist Grade 1 (Great Vajra Realm, Early Stage of Finger Profound Realm, Early Stage of Celestial Phenomenon Realm)]
Zhao Heng and his son, however, stared blankly, their expressions bewildered!
This Li Chang'an is just too unbelievable!
The Prajna Heart Bell in the sky grew larger and larger, eventually covering the entire Diaoyutai.
The densely packed scriptures on the heart bell can be clearly seen from afar!
Buddhist believers in the city knelt down and prostrated themselves in worship!
The crowd, who had just been disappointed by the failure of the White-Robed Guanyin, instantly became excited!
"There's hope! The Heavenly Talisman seems to have moved!"
"She's even more powerful than the White-Robed Guanyin!"
"Have you heard? This is the esoteric Buddhist skill of the Tang Emperor!"
"Heavens! The Tang King actually possesses such cultivation!"
……
Before long, the people of Xiangfan were in an uproar!
Because that celestial talisman, undaunted by wind and rain, had already soared high into the sky!
The bright yellow celestial talisman trembled and struggled violently in the air!
Li Chang'an heard countless pitiful cries, which were terrifying to hear!
These vengeful spirits recount their past, some saying that parents ate their young children, and others that children ate their parents, their resentment reaching the heavens!
"Go, cross the River of Oblivion, cross the Bridge of Helplessness!"
"Your next life will surely be one of peace, happiness, and prosperity!"
The mournful cries gradually subsided, and the chanting gradually faded away!
A dazzling white flame ignited simultaneously from all four sides of the Heavenly Symbol!
The ritual to guide the deceased to the afterlife was successfully completed!
The Heavenly Talisman has burned to ashes!
Inside Xiangfan City, the 10,000 survivors of that year were all in tears.
These people have lived on until now, burdened with deep remorse.
"Emperor Tang... thank you so much..."
"Lord Li, your merits are immeasurable."
From now on, Xiangfan will no longer be a ghost town!
In that instant, Li Chang'an felt the powerful energy of both Buddhism and Taoism surge into his body.
If he exchanges for another Finger Profound Manual, he can directly advance to the mid-stage of Finger Profound!
As the celestial talisman burned out, the white-robed Guanyin clasped her hands together, her expression solemn.
To her surprise, she actually found a man whose esoteric Buddhist skills were superior to her own.
This young man is the only person in the world suitable for her to cultivate together.
As long as she cultivates with him for a period of time, she will be able to break through to the level of a Buddhist Vajra!
With that in mind, she extended the invitation directly.
"I, Guanyin, wish you a free and at peace mind; let us cultivate together and attain enlightenment!"
These words were spoken in a melodious, ethereal voice, as if they came from the heavens.
