Peerless Taoist

Lu Yu stood up, as if he had stepped into the ancient Buddhist Sect. Bodhisattvas and Arhats surrounded him, and thunder rumbled in the sky. The sound of the Buddhist chant was loud and deafening. A tall Buddha sat cross-legged on the refinement, holding a spell in his hand. His expression was merciful, and he had a smile on his face.    

At this moment, Lu Yu felt extremely calm. It was as if all his troubles had disappeared in an instant. He had entered a true paradise, and only happiness lingered in his heart.    

Lu Yu was listening to the Buddhist chant in the sky. This was an extremely mysterious scripture, and it was more profound than all the Buddhist scriptures he had obtained so far.    

The Buddha had gone through three thousand years, and no one knew how much time had passed.    

Suddenly, the surrounding Buddhist light dissipated. Lu Yu saw the mottled and rough walls of the dilapidated house. The rustling of the rain outside entered his ears, and a cold breeze blew on his body.    

Lu Yu suddenly woke up. He suddenly realized that the scene he had seen before was actually an illusion.    

There was no Buddha, no Bodhisattva, and no Vajra. It was all like a dream.    

"What was that just now?" Lu Yu had not woken up from the shocking scene. The Buddhist chant was loud and clear, and the scripture was profound. Even he had to carefully experience it.    

"That is the Buddhist Sect."    

The old man's body became even more hunched. He shook his head and sighed, "The Buddhist Sect is just a memory. It has long since ceased to exist."    

Lu Yu looked at the ancient bronze lamp in his hand silently. There were many patterns carved on it, and some small Sanskrit inscriptions were engraved on it. They gave off a weak luster, and they looked quite old.    

Lu Yu took a deep breath. "Why is that?"    

The old man sighed and said, "Everything in the world, life and death, everything has been predestined. What is there to be long-lasting? Even the Buddha can't escape this fate."    

He looked at Lu Yu and asked, "What is your name?"    

"Lu Yu."    

"Alright, from today onwards, you will comprehend the Buddhist Sect here. Although the Buddhist Sect has fallen, it has left behind an endless treasure, all of which are hidden in this lamp."    

The old man's eyelids drooped slightly, and there was an indescribable exhaustion on his face. "Just now, when the lamp was lit for ten breaths, it meant that your nature was not bad."    

"When the Buddhist Sect was destroyed, this copper lamp sealed all of the Buddhist Sect's memories. This is your opportunity. I don't have much time left. How much you can comprehend will depend on your ability. This can be considered my repayment for saving the lives of the people of Mount Numinous."    

The old man waved his hand, as if he was no longer prepared to communicate with Lu Yu. He slowly returned to the Buddhist hall and slept with the two children.    

Not long after, a deep snoring sound came from the Buddhist hall.    

The old man seemed to be very confident in Lu Yu, and he did not seem to be on guard. It seemed that Lu Yu had already been considered as a trial in the bronze lamp's illusion.    

Lu Yu was not a bad person, and he had passed this test to obtain this opportunity. However, if he did not pass the test, Lu Yu did not know what would happen.    

He silently looked in the direction of the hall. The old man was curled up in the straw mat, and he did not have the slightest aura of magic. At this moment, he was no different from many other old farmers.    

However, this old man was definitely not as simple as he seemed.    

Lu Yu quickly dispelled the distracting thoughts in his mind. The old man was observing him, and he was also observing the old man.    

According to Lu Yu's deduction, the old man did not have any bad intentions towards him. As for the two monsters, Big Black and Monkey, they probably would not be in any danger at this moment.    

Hearing that his two old friends were fine, Lu Yu gradually relaxed. He completely immersed himself in the bronze lamp, and his divine sense was used to illuminate it. The bronze lamp immediately lit up with a ball of flames.    

The weak light of the fire burned in the spacious and cold house. The dazzling Buddha light once again enveloped the house, filling it with warm and sacred aura.    

The entire house was no longer that shabby tile house, but a grand hall that was shining with light.    

This Buddhist hall was too huge, and it was impossible to see the end of it. The long carpet stretched all the way to the depths of the Buddhist hall. Countless experts of the Buddhist Sect were standing on both sides of the hall. They had different forms, and they were all in a different state. It was extremely magnificent.    

The moment Lu Yu appeared, countless gazes were focused on him.    

These gazes were filled with an unparalleled majesty, and a mountainous pressure suddenly descended on Lu Yu's body. At this moment, Lu Yu felt as if he was in a storm, and an incomparably terrifying pressure was coming from all directions.    

Lu Yu frowned slightly. This pressure was as if it had materialized, and even his soul was trembling slightly.    

If a person with a weak soul power were to be in this situation, their soul would probably crumble and be unable to extricate themselves.    

However, Lu Yu's soul power was definitely not ordinary. With just a thought, he was able to forcefully resist this pressure.    

Lu Yu's expression remained the same as he stood in this storm of souls. He gradually withstood this pressure.    

Lu Yu took a step forward and followed the carpet, wanting to reach the end of the Buddhist hall. However, at this moment, the golden body standing in the surroundings suddenly stood up and shouted loudly, at the same time releasing a vast thunderous sound.    

The loud shout was like a thunderclap that suddenly exploded in the Buddhist hall, and it continued to rumble endlessly.    

At the same time, a golden body that was leaning on Lu Yu suddenly turned its body and faced Lu Yu. A smile appeared on its face as it said, "As the Buddha says, 'As the Buddha feels, the Buddha is happy.'"    

"Exterminate all the demons and devils! Clear up the Jade Mansion! Waved your hands to celebrate! Blossoming in joy!"    

"My Dao is happiness!"    

Just as the golden Buddha statue finished speaking, a powerful aura suddenly assaulted Lu Yu, instantly enveloping him.    

Lu Yu felt as if he was being enveloped by a unique aura. Countless Buddhist scriptures flew in the air like tadpoles and landed in his mind.    

Those scriptures were profound and abstruse, containing endless truths. They were the essence of this Arhat's life of cultivation. Now, they were all passed down to Lu Yu's mind.    

Lu Yu took a deep breath. A hint of shock flashed across his eyes.    

With his understanding of the Great Dao, he could naturally see how precious these scriptures were. They were almost the entirety of an expert's lifetime of study. They were all passed down to him without reservation.    

An ancient sect like Buddhism had extremely strict rules of inheritance. Usually, only the most intimate personal disciples would be able to obtain the true inheritance of the master. Many disciples would be subjected to tests every day in their lives in Buddhism.    

However, such a precious thing was now in front of him.    

At this moment, Lu Yu finally understood what the heaven-shocking creation that the old man had mentioned was.
