"It's the power of reincarnation!"
the old monk exclaimed in fright and kept retreating.
While backing off, he summoned a wooden fish and a stick in his hands.
He quickly beat the wooden fish with the stick,
releasing streaks of terrifying Buddhist light that contained the strong power of faith of Buddhism.
As lightning flashed and thunder crashed over the mountain,
a strong gust of wind churtling towards Austin and Julian.
"Julian, watch out!"
Austin warned.
Julian didn't have much experience in real-life combat, so Austin was worried about him.
Besides, he couldn't help but look out for his son.
He raised his hand and, with the Reincarnation Sword Skill, easily blocked the beams of light.
As the attacks of both sides collided,
a terrifying burst of energy spread out through the whole area like a shock wave.
"This Sumeru Mountain is really something else! There are so many talented warriors here. A mere spiritual avatar is able to stand
its ground against me,"
Austin exclaimed in surprise. As usual, he couldn't help but admire the skills of the warriors he faced, whether they were friend or
foe.
More importantly, the old monk in front of him was not even a living person, but a spiritual avatar.
As soon as Austin finished his words,
he conjured up a saber in his hand.
Channeling great power into it,
he slashed forward at the monk.
All kinds of mysterious blade skills were integrated into this one strike.
Tremendous blade energy shot out from the saber and rolled forward.
At the stime, a large amount of reincarnation energy enveloped the saber,
making its attack all the more terrifying.
Without pause, a ray of incomparably thick blade radiance burst out from the saber and slashed at the old monk.
Meanwhile, Austin secretly set up several arrays to shroud his opponent. He had cultivated for so many years and fought so many
opponents that, for him, combat had becas ingrained as thinking or breathing. Moreover, he often used a combination of
moves that no opponent would expect.
"Your combat power is impressive! I'm willing to admit defeat,"
the old monk remarked with an appreciative sigh.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe next moment,
the thick blade radiance of the saber slashed the old monk's body into pieces.
Since it was just a spiritual avatar,
he disappeared without a trace.
"I'm sorry to offend you,"
Austin said loudly, knowing that the owner of the avatar was paying attention to him.
Then, he turned to his son and said, "Julian, let's continue to go up."
Holding hands, the two of them resumed their journey up the legendary divine mountain.
But it seemed that they wouldn't be able to make it up without facing more obstacles, because five more monks appeared.
They were all dressed in shabby clothes covered with dust.
"Amitabha! Please wait a moment," the monk at the front said.
"Get out of my way!
Otherwise, don't blme for being rude to you,"
Austin shouted angrily. He was starting to lose his patience.
"Sir, this mountain is a sacred place of Buddhism. No one is allowed to enter it without permission.
Please leave,"
the first monk said slowly, shaking his head.
Without saying anything else, Austin launched an attack.
The saber in his hand slashed forward with terrifying blade energy, tearing up the space around them.
The sky above and the earth below in the path of the blade cracked, unable to take the terrifying pressure.
At the stime, a large amount of reincarnation energy rolled forward from Austin.
Perhaps it was this energy that made the monks spring into action. With a drastic change in their expressions, they all shouted at
the stime, like letting out a war cry. All sorts of magic treasures appeared in their hands, including a staff, a huge bell, a
crescent blade, and Buddhist beads.
Each of these magic treasures contained endless power of faith.
As the monks charged towards Austin,
the ground beneath them shook violently.
At the stime, a vast amount of power of faith fell from the Sumeru Mountain like a waterfall that rolled up and hurtled towards
Austin and Julian, ready to carry them away with the wave.
The power of faith of Buddhism in this mountain was as vast as the ocean and the starry night sky. It was too much... but not too
much for Austin.
Nevertheless, he didn't dare to let his guard down in front of the five monks.
Instead, in his enthusiasm to get to the top of the mountain, he went all out in his attack.
As he maximized the power of the law of reincarnation, the vast energy shrouded him and his son in a protective barrier.
The reincarnation path continued to extend under his feet and shoot forward.
Together with Julian,
Austin kept running down this path towards the five monks.
The blade in his hand slashed at the five monks with incomparably thick blade radiance.
On top of that, Austin employed the mysterious reincarnation bodily movement skill, which was almost indecipherable.
The five monks were unable to locate the specific positions of Austin and Julian,
and as a result, most of their attacks failed.
Taking advantage of this, Austin and Julian rushed to one of the monks and slashed at him.
The dreadful law of reincarnation emanating from his saber converged into a large river of power and hurtled towards the monk.
'Ah, the law of reincarnation.
Well, I've already entered the cycle of reincarnation, so there's no point fighting against it."
With that thought, the monk accepted his fate and no longer dodged.
With one slash of Austin's saber, the monk's body exploded,
blasting a beam of Buddhist light that lit up the entire sky before disappearing for good.
Just like the first monk that they had encountered, these five monks also turned out to be spiritual avatars.
In a flash,
Austin appeared in front of another monk and slashed at him.
Once again, with just one slash,
the monk's body shattered into pieces and turned into a fog before dissipating over the Sumeru Mountain.
Austin killed the remaining three monks in the sway, mercilessly slashing at them and leaving no room for them to defend
themselves.
'This divine mountain must have been left behind by a god of chaos.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many monks with such terrifying fighting power here.
Fortunately, they were all spiritual avatars.
If their real selves were here, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so easy forto defeat them,"
Austin thought to himself, surveying the area where the five spiritual avatars had stood.
Now that his observation was over, he wanted to continue on their journey.
"Let's go," he urged, taking Julian's hand again.
As they walked up the mountain, they heard the consistent ringing of loud, melodious bells from the ancient temple above them.
The sound was frightening, but it seemed to hold the power to purify people's souls. Austin could feel the effects even from here.
Along the way,
several more groups of spiritual avatars of monks appeared in front of them in an attempt to stop them.
However, they were no match for Austin, who defeated them quickly without so much as breaking a sweat.
Finally,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwhen they were halfway up the mountain,
Austin and Julian found themselves in front of an ancient temple,
the one that they had heard the bells from.
The temple looked small and ordinary,
not to mention run-down, as if it was old and abandoned.
However, it contained an amazing amount of Buddhist energy.
Standing in front of the temple, Austin couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed.
He raised his head in curiosity, but the two words written on the plaque of the temple made his jaw drop in shock.
"Thunder Temple."
It turned out that this inconspicuous ancient temple was the legendary Thunder Temple!
It was said that the Thunder Temple was the place where Buddha Hawley had cultivated and later began to spread the teachings of
Buddhism.
However, according to the records of Buddhist classics, the residence of Buddha Hawley wasn't the Sumeru Mountain, so Austin
had assumed that the Thunder Temple shouldn't have been found here.
He had never expected to see it here in the Sumeru Mountain.
He shook his head in wonder as he tried to digest this new piece of knowledge. Moreover, he was feeling a little hesitant.
Although he had practiced the Buddhist cultivation methods before, he hadn't worked hard on them as his focus had been
elsewhere back then. Therefore, he only had a sketchy knowledge of the Buddhist cultivation methods.
"Since we're here, let's go inside and have a look."
With a confident smile on his face, Austin took his son's hand and placed his foot forward to enter the Thunder Temple.
At this moment,
a middle-aged monk in a robe draped over his left shoulder suddenly appeared at the door of the ancient temple. He had a kind
face, and a humble posture. He calmly regarded Austin and Julian with friendly eyes.
However, the first thing Austin noticed about the monk was the dazzling amount of Buddhist light emanating from him.
‘This monk is so terrifying!" he thought. He couldn't help but take a few steps back in fear, pulling Julian along with him.
Encountering this middle-aged monk was the first tafter coming to the Sumeru Mountain that Austin had sensed danger.
