Chapter 579 -579 Mute Zen Bead
West Temple Hall.
Inside the hall was a mess, with scraps scattered all over the place.
For example, jade scroll fragments engraved with text, torn pages of books, and pieces of clothing.
There were several small rooms inside the hall, all similar.
“I say, if you think it’s useless, just leave it alone. Why make a mess?”
Jiang Fan picked up a fragment of a jade scroll.
It was engraved with Buddhist text, likely a Buddhist cultivation technique.
But it had been destroyed.
The Evil Spirit retorted, “Hey, hey, hey, don’t blame everything on me.”
“Back in the day, the Tiger Demon Emperor and I only took the good stuff.”
“We didn’t touch anything else.”
“It must have been others who came later and ransacked the place.”
It looked towards a wall, which had been chiseled like a cake gnawed on by dogs.
Bits missing here and there.
“There used to be a mural on this wall, containing rare Geng Metal Stone powder.”
“Someone found it and took it.”
The Evil Spirit shook its head and sighed, “These bumpkins, such a waste.”
“That painting was a Buddhist treasure map, which could weaken evil qi for people like Concubine Yunxia who failed to survive the tribulation.”
“Its effect was no worse than that old Taoist’s Calming Lotus Silk.”
Jiang Fan’s face grew serious.
The place had been ransacked more thoroughly than he had imagined.
Moreover, those who came before were mostly Nascent Soul-level experts.
How sharp were their eyes?
There was almost no chance they’d miss anything.
At that moment.
He felt a weight in his arms, knowing that Little Qilin had returned.
Instantly, he felt at ease.
A top-grade spiritual artifact was in hand.
Even if they found nothing more, this trip was worthwhile.
Moreover, Little Qilin had an innate ability to sense Heaven and Earth spiritual objects.
Perhaps it could find something others had missed.
“Little Qilin, see if there’s any treasure in this hall.”
Little Qilin peeked its head out, glancing around.
Initially, it wanted to shake its head, “No… wait.”
Suddenly sensing something, it looked up at the ceiling of the stone hall.
Due to lighting, Luminous Pearls were embedded in the ceiling, similar to those outside.
For ordinary people, these might be rare treasures.
For martial artists, especially high-level ones, they were worthless, and no one would care.
Little Qilin stared at one of the seemingly ordinary Luminous Pearls and said, “Take that pearl down.”
“I feel it’s different from the others.”
Really?
Jiang Fan followed its gaze and observed.
On the surface, it seemed no different, with the same faint glow as the other pearls.
But he trusted Little Qilin’s judgment.
He leaped up, grabbed it with five fingers, and pried it out of the stone.
A Luminous Pearl the size of a human eye, emitting a moon-like radiance, appeared before him.
“What do you want with this?”
The Evil Spirit was puzzled.
But then it noticed something and exclaimed, “Wait!”
“Remove its surface layer.”
Jiang Fan nodded slightly, using his finger to scrape away a layer of white powder from the pearl’s surface.
A hint of clear crystal color came into view.
Once the outer layer was completely removed.
A perfectly clear crystal ball, obviously not a Luminous Pearl, lay quietly in Jiang Fan’s hand.
“Of course! I felt something was off.”
The Evil Spirit clicked its tongue in wonder, “This is a Mute Zen Bead.”
“It was condensed into a Buddha Bead by an enlightened monk who practiced Mute Zen with great mana.”
Jiang Fan was unfamiliar with Buddhist cultivation techniques.
Because in the Nine-Sect Land, Buddhist inheritance had never appeared.
He immediately asked, “What is Mute Zen?”
The Evil Spirit laughed, “Place this bead in your bosom, then think of what you want to say to me.”
Jiang Fan did so, putting the Mute Zen Bead in his bosom.
Then, thinking at the Evil Spirit, “Can I trust this old thing?”
As soon as he thought it.
Jiang Fan heard the amused voice of the Evil Spirit in his mind:
“Trustworthy, very trustworthy!”
What the…!
He could hear my thoughts and even communicate directly in my mind?
Frightened, Jiang Fan quickly took out the Mute Zen Bead.
The Evil Spirit, with a black face, said, “Can’t you ever appreciate the old me a bit?”
Jiang Fan smiled awkwardly, starting to understand what Mute Zen meant.
No need for words, thoughts were transmitted directly into the other’s mind, and the other could respond the same way.
They could communicate without speaking.
It could be especially useful in certain situations.
A rare treasure indeed.
He happily accepted it.
“Ahem, let’s go to the next hall.”
East Temple Hall.
Also thoroughly ransacked, not a hair left.
Even Little Qilin shook its head.
Jiang Fan decisively moved on to the last, South Temple Hall.
After a quick look, the Evil Spirit said, “It looks like it’s been ransacked too.”
“Forget it, let’s find the Nascent Soul corpse I mentioned.”
For some reason, it had never hurried them.
Now, suddenly it was impatient.
Jiang Fan squinted.
He secretly communicated with Little Qilin, “Search carefully.”
“That old thing is rushing me out, there might be something big hidden here.”
Little Qilin immediately activated its eyesight, scanning around.
But after scanning, it frowned and said, “There’s really nothing special.”
“All ordinary things.”
Really?
Jiang Fan frowned, not convinced that there was nothing.
If the Evil Spirit hadn’t urged him, and Little Qilin said there was nothing, he would have accepted it.
But the Evil Spirit seemed eager to leave.
Clearly, something was up.
Jiang Fan examined the hall for a moment, then thought for a moment.
He raised his hand, pressing it to the ground.
The Evil Spirit’s eyes flickered, “Boy, what are you doing?”
Jiang Fan ignored it.
He lightly chanted, “Void Flow Thunder Force!”
Crackling—
Countless thunder arcs burst from his palm, spreading to every corner of the hall.
Every brick, every inch of wall was filled with Void Flow Thunder Force.
Looking around, the whole hall sparkled dazzlingly.
Except for one spot.
A corner of the hall.
Everywhere else had thunder arcs, except this spot, where a stone wall had no thunder arcs.
And the shape of the stone wall.
It formed the shape of a door!
Little Qilin’s eyes widened, guiltily saying, “Master, I really didn’t see anything different.”
Jiang Fan communicated, “It’s not your fault.”
“Someone did something here to block the senses.”
He retracted the Void Flow Thunder Force and walked to the invisible door.
Out of caution, he placed one of Ouyang Jun’s Cloud Burst Iron Balls, ready to blow it open.
This startled the Evil Spirit, “Hey, hey, don’t.”
“The things inside are too fragile to withstand such destruction.”
Jiang Fan glanced at it, “So, you’ve been inside.”
“No wonder you were urging me to leave the hall.”
Seeing his intentions revealed, the Evil Spirit had no choice but to tell the truth.
