One Pound Meat, One More Attribute Point

Su Heng was initially stunned.

Then he widened his eyes, fearlessly confronting the Buddha figure on the rock wall.

Boom boom boom!

The rock wall's trembling grew more intense.

Eventually, there was a loud "crack" on the neck of the Buddha statue, and the huge head rolled off the shoulders, thudding heavily onto the ground, causing a dull sound.

Su Heng had not yet figured out exactly what was happening when the palms of the Buddha statue started to move.

From the initial hand gesture of the middle finger pinching the thumb, it changed to both hands laying flat, right hand on top of the left, with the thumbs touching one another in another distinct meaningful gesture. As the gesture changed, the bloody moonlight rippled through the air, and surprisingly, Su Heng directly exited Xie Linyuan's memories.

"What's going on!?" Su Heng said, his face full of surprise, puzzled inside.

He closed his eyes, carefully sensing the state of his body, silently reciting the Dharma Seal in his mind.

Unexpectedly,

He felt nothing adverse at all.

Instead, his senses were clear, his thoughts agile and calm, experiencing a liberating and enlightening euphoria.

With Su Heng's level of cultivation, his control over his own body was extremely keen. Such a feeling was by no means an illusion but due to some changes caused by events that had just occurred.

"Absorbed due to Xie Linyuan's memories?" It didn't seem so.

Su Heng had been contemplating with his eyes closed for a while; if there had been any change, he should have noticed it long ago.

"Then, it must be because of the Buddha statue." Su Heng grew more puzzled, "Why did the Buddha statue crumble upon seeing me, and what benefits have I gained from it?"

He thought about the two hand gestures of the Buddha statue, which might contain crucial information.

Thus, Su Heng asked, "Does anyone have a good understanding of Buddhism?"

Wang Xindong and Zhou Guiyu looked at each other, unsure why he suddenly asked such a question. However, Wang Xindong shook his head and said, "I'm not very clear. However, in the north of Jiangbei State, due to its proximity to Skull Plain, Buddhism is indeed relatively more prevalent."

"Some basic knowledge would do," Su Heng frowned and said.

A pale white hand trembled slightly as it was raised, Su Heng looked down, it was Li Hongxiu.

"You know about these?"

"In the Red Chamber, there was a sister who believed in Buddhism, and I heard quite a lot from her," Li Hongxiu spoke coldly and clearly.

"Then, do you know about Buddhist hand gestures?"

Su Heng nodded slightly, then recalling the contents he saw in Xie Linyuan's memories, he brought his hands together, pinching the middle finger with the thumb.

"This is the Dharma Seal," Li Hongxiu spoke without hesitation, "Buddhist monks use this hand gesture when preaching to demonstrate the majesty and expanse of Buddhist teachings." ℞äNȯᛒƐʂ

"And what about this one?" Su Heng then held his hands flat, placing them on his lower abdomen, with the thumbs touching.

"That is the Zen Meditation Seal," Li Hongxiu replied, "It represents the Buddha contemplating and striving to comprehend the truths of the world under the Bodhi Tree. The right hand is always on top of the left hand, symbolizing that to spread Buddhism, unstoppable martial force is needed as support."

"From the Dharma Seal to the Zen Meditation Seal..."

"Closing doors, signifying the Buddha will not ferry you across," Wang Xindong instinctively blurted out.

"Uh..." Zhou Guiyu was momentarily stunned, and the atmosphere suddenly turned somewhat awkward. Wang Xindong scratched his head and apologized, "I just spoke offhand, please don't take it seriously, Commander."

"No matter, I think what you said makes sense," Su Heng said.

He summarized the following points from Xie Linyuan's memories.

Destroying the Buddha statue seemed to help enhance his spiritual power, and this experience should be helpful after breaking through to the Heavenly Deceit Realm.

Moreover, within the Demon Gate, there seemed to be a secret technique that used worship to aid in breaking through the Heavenly Deceit.

But using such a technique would come at a cost.

The final point was Su Heng's intuition.

When facing the Buddha statue, Su Heng felt it was not purely an inanimate object.

This reminded him of the demons from the Sky Demon Alliance who spread beliefs; perhaps the owners of those Buddha statues were also cultivating through a similar method?

"Interesting..."

After the incident with the tides, the people of Baihua County wanted to build a temple for him.

It had already been over half a month, and he was not sure how the construction of the temple was progressing. Su Heng had not cared much about it initially, but now he had some interest in it.

"However, the most urgent task is to integrate the demon remains, so that I can stand invincible against stronger opponents from the Heavenly Deceit Realm," Su Heng reached out and grabbed Xie Linyuan's unconscious body as if picking up trash, "and then find An Shelie's tomb and take the Dragon Blood!"

Whether it was to strengthen his physique, advance the progress of Blood Mutation,

Or to further perfect the Domineering Dragon Thirteen Forms secret technique and bring more terrifying enhancements to the Transformed Dragon State auxiliary move,

Su Heng now needed the Dragon Blood!

Moreover, An Shelie's tomb was essentially on his territory.

If someone else managed to steal it right under his nose, it would truly disgrace him as a leader.

Thus, Su Heng was determined to obtain the Dragon Blood.

...

...

...

In Jiangbei State, at the location of the Demon Gate.

In a stockade adorned with red lanterns, quite ordinary overall,

A seemingly inconspicuous room was filled with the gentle voice of a woman conversing.

Ke Yulan was sitting cross-legged on the bed, her long hair draped over her shoulders. She appeared to have just finished a bath, her skin rosy and translucent, with a hint of dampness still lingering in her cloud-like hair. She was innately seductive, wearing a thin gauze garment, and every smile and frown showcased the full extent of her feminine charm.
