boom!
The Nativity Lotus Pond is filled with brilliant Buddha light and thick mist, in which grow thousands of mysterious lotus flowers of various colors, vying for splendor and exuding a transcendent and holy aura.
Ling Xiao chose the largest golden lotus, while Zhao Ritian chose a red lotus. Now that there was no descending light group to compete with them, they naturally chose the two lotuses with the most intense Buddha light and the most powerful power in this descending lotus pond.
Buzz!
The golden lotus and the red lotus both vibrated, and in an instant, brilliant rays of light burst out, and the two lotus flowers slowly bloomed!
Ling Xiao's birth light ball entered the golden lotus, and he felt like he had entered chaos. There was warm light all around, and it was as comfortable as a mother's body. Powerful forces came from the golden lotus and merged into Ling Xiao's body. Ling Xiao felt that his body was also slowly condensing.
"I need more energy to recover to my peak level as soon as possible!"
Ling Xiao's mind moved, and he instantly activated the Heaven-Swallowing Secret Art. A brilliant golden cloud gathered around him and transformed into a huge swallowing vortex, which began to frantically plunder the energy in the Lotus Pond.
Boom!
Born in the lotus pond, there is pure Buddha power, which is the power of faith of countless Buddhist believers. It is the source of power of Jinshan Temple, and it has been accumulated for who knows how many tens of thousands of years.
For great Buddhist monks and sages, being born in a lotus pond is equivalent to being reincarnated in this world. They start as infants, gradually grow up, and experience the natural cycle, the miraculous process from birth to death. Only this is considered a complete experience.
But Ling Xiao entered the Eight Treasures Lotus Merit Pond not to experience tribulation, but to find Xiaoyue, so he could not wait for natural growth and then gradually recover his cultivation. He immediately began to use the Heaven-Swallowing Secret Art to plunder.
In the lotus pond, the incomparably powerful Buddha power surged and flew towards the golden lotus where Ling Xiao was born, making the golden lotus become more crystal clear, revealing a holy and mysterious light everywhere.
boom!
At the same time, the red lotus that Zhao Ritian entered began to tremble slightly, and also emitted a powerful devouring force, devouring the Buddha's power in the lotus pond.
Although Zhao Ritian did not have the secret art of swallowing the sky, he had the Yan Emperor Cauldron. Just by mobilizing a little of the power of the Yan Emperor Cauldron, he was able to devour the Buddha's power in the lotus pond.
Boom!
In the void, the battle between Saint Puzhao and Saint Tianmo was so fierce that it could be said to be like the destruction of heaven and earth. Although Saint Tianmo had the upper hand, he found it difficult to suppress Saint Puzhao for a while.
Without the obstruction of these two saints, the extraterritorial demons in the sky attacked and killed those descent light balls wantonly. Many weak descent light balls became nutrients for the extraterritorial demons. Only a few stronger descent light balls broke through the layers of blockades and entered the descent lotus pond.
Some powerful demons from outside the domain also rushed into the lotus pond, trying to devour the lotuses.
All in all, the Descent Lotus Pond became extremely chaotic, with Buddha's light and demonic light everywhere, the void was in chaos, the earth was shaking, and it was a mess everywhere.
The monks of Jinshan Temple, led by Master Yuanming, were all severely injured by the Heavenly Demon Saint. At the moment, they were only concerned with activating the Jinshan Demon Subduing Formation to protect themselves. How could they care about being reborn in the lotus pond
It was under such circumstances that Ling Xiao and Zhao Ritian were born!
Buzz!
The void shook violently, brilliant golden and red light gushed out, two lotus flowers slowly blossomed, mist was thick, Buddha's light was brilliant, and two chubby little babies appeared on the two lotus pedestals.
It was Ling Xiao and Zhao Ritian!
Ling Xiao and Zhao Ritian looked at each other, with a hint of weirdness in their eyes. Anyone who saw themselves turned into a baby, and so naked, would probably be upset.
"Hahaha... Ling Xiao, you were born later than me, so call me brother!"
Zhao Ritian said this with a wink, but because he looked like a baby, he looked very cute.
"Nonsense, I was born first! Zhao Ritian, I am the eldest brother!"
Ling Xiao glanced at Zhao Ritian and said lightly.
"You... you're cheating! Ling Xiao, how about this? We absorb the Buddha's power from the Lotus Pond to restore our cultivation. Whoever is older will be the eldest brother. How do you think?"
Zhao Ritian glared at Ling Xiao angrily, but then he rolled his eyes and smiled maliciously.
"Okay, I'm just afraid you'll cheat!"
Ling Xiao smiled slightly and said without comment.
"Tsk, how could I, Zhao Ritian, cheat? You...how did you start this? Bastard, how dare you trick me!"
Zhao Ritian said with a proud smile, but before he could finish his words, he saw Ling Xiao already sitting cross-legged on the lotus platform with his hands clasped together. Brilliant golden light emanated from his body, and he was already absorbing the majestic Buddha's power in the lotus pond. Ling Xiao's aura was also beginning to increase at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Although Zhao Ritian felt a little depressed, he quickly activated the Yan Emperor Cauldron to absorb the surrounding Buddhist power.
Boom!
There seemed to be blazing lightning rising around Ling Xiao and Zhao Ritian. The scene was extremely astonishing. As Ling Xiao and Zhao Ritian absorbed the Buddha's power around them, their bodies began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.
From the infant state, to one, two, three years old...
It was as if several years had passed in the blink of an eye, and it seemed extremely mysterious.
"Is this Eight Treasures Lotus Merit Pond really the Heart Realm? Why is it so real?"
A thought suddenly flashed through Ling Xiao's mind.
He felt that although this body was condensed from the lotus, it was extremely real, with flesh, blood and bones clearly visible. Moreover, it was a natural Taoist body with all its meridians open and not tainted by a trace of worldly air. It was countless times better than his original physique.
Moreover, because Ling Xiao's mental strength was strong, his realm had already reached the realm of the Sixth Turn Half Saint long ago. Coupled with the tremendous Buddha's power born in the lotus pond, Ling Xiao's cultivation began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye. It didn't take long before Ling Xiao already possessed the peak cultivation of the Sixth Turn Half Saint!
"If I continue to devour it like this, will I be able to attain the state of a saintly mind here?"
Ling Xiao thought secretly in his heart.
However, when Ling Xiao's cultivation broke through to the realm of the sixth-level semi-saint, he suddenly found that he could no longer absorb any Buddha power.
When he opened his eyes, he found that Zhao Ritian opposite him also had a depressed look on his face. After his cultivation reached the seventh level of semi-saint, he had not made any further progress.
