Chapter 1130: Yes
The Buddhist sect has a legend.
Once, a high monk who had attained enlightenment went on a journey and fell in love with a village maiden, forming emotional ties that shook his Buddhist faith, nearly causing him to renounce his vows and start a family with her.
In the end, however, the monk chose to dig out his own heart, deeply burying his emotions and heart in the soil, then quietly leaving.
As time went on, a dazzling purple plant grew from the soil where his heartfelt emotions were buried, emitting a strange fragrance. Lovers and couples from miles around would come on the seventh day of July to worship, praying for their love to remain evergreen and forever renewed.
Of course, this is merely a tragic and beautiful legend.
In fact, the plant is called the Six Ren Buddha Flower, which sprouts every five hundred years, blooms every five hundred years, and bears fruit every five hundred years, totaling fifteen hundred years.
"What a pity."
"Zi Sang Taoist was merely a cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Condensation Stage, with a lifespan of only a thousand years, waiting for it to sprout and bloom, but never seeing it bear fruit!"
Lin Mo gently shook his head, feeling quite regretful.
The center of this Six Ren Buddha Flower has nine purple Meng Die blossoms opening outward, wrapping around a purple fruit approximately the size of an apple, with a radiant flow of purple light upon it.
The strange fragrance emanates from within, and Lin Mo carefully enveloped the Six Ren Buddha Flower in a few strands of Divine Thought. After a while, he murmured to himself, "My luck is unexpectedly good. The Liu Ren Buddha Fruit will mature in just one year."
A look of joy appeared on Lin Mo's face.
The Liu Ren Buddha Fruit is worth at least five million top-grade spiritual stones and is a rare Spirit Fruit in the Cultivation World. Consuming it can enhance the soul's strength and solidity.
"Since my Divine Thought is already very powerful due to cultivating the Ancient Demon Technique, consuming the Liu Ren Buddha Fruit would ensure that my soul's cultivation is comparable to that of an actual Golden Core Stage cultivator!"
Lin Mo's eyes flickered with unspoken excitement, his hands clenched, his body trembling slightly.
Shen Qiankun and others were still outside dividing the treasures, unaware that the true treasure was within the Array.
Lin Mo didn't intend to pick the Liu Ren Buddha Fruit now; he needed to wait for it to mature before picking it to be effective. Putting the entire pool into his Space Ring wasn't feasible either.
The Six Ren Buddha Flower has been growing here for fourteen hundred and ninety-nine years, accustomed to the atmosphere and environment, and rashly changing its environment might lead to its death.
"It's only a year; I'll set up an array here, and when the fruit matures, I'll come to pick it." Lin Mo decided inwardly.
Exiting the small secret chamber, Lin Mo summoned Spiritual Energy once more to close the Stone Gate.
"If Zi Sang Taoist could wait for the Liu Ren Buddha Fruit to mature, he might have had the chance to live another five hundred years. It's a pity..."
Lin Mo looked at the dry bones on the stone bed and shook his head. Both the soul and body have their lifespans. Even if Zi Sang Taoist couldn't break through to the Golden Core Stage, consuming the Liu Ren Buddha Fruit would have strengthened his soul, making it comparable to a Golden Core Early Stage cultivator, allowing his soul to survive for another five hundred years after the body decayed.
Then he could find a puppet to seize a body.
With this thought, Lin Mo left the cave, found a piece of open land, dug a hole, buried Zi Sang Taoist's skeleton and the decaying Daoist robe inside, and used the Xuanyuan Sword to carve a stele placed before the grave, inscribing Zi Sang Taoist's name.
After all, Lin Mo is a Huaxia person, subconsciously adhering to the concept of peaceful burial.
Once everything was done, Lin Mo returned to the cave and sat down cross-legged to meditate.
"That punch just now, which instantly killed the Red Demon, has left my body somewhat overwhelmed. The Star Power within my Dantian was nearly emptied!"
Lin Mo inspected his Dantian internally, and a hint of a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
In the last one or two months in the Eastern Emperor Bell, Lin Mo had constantly been exploring the mysteries at the dome of the bell, and at that time, a strand of Divine Thought entered his mind, making Lin Mo understand what was going on.
That strand of Divine Thought carried only one sentence: "If you are destined, take a good look at this Eastern Emperor Bell. It holds unexpected rewards for you."
Therefore, Lin Mo continuously comprehended the Eastern Emperor Bell, guided by some mysteries he had gained from the Black Iron Block, gradually understanding its concealed secrets, which harbored a profound Martial Arts Secret Technique.
Upon discovering the Secret Technique, Lin Mo was overwhelmed with excitement, considering the Liu Ren Buddha Fruit insignificant before such a treasure.
The Secret Technique was called the Star Wheel Universe Map, a secret technique for arranging the Star Power within the body. Following the arrangement depicted in the Star Wheel Universe Map, the Star Power could increase exponentially.
Six Star Powers emitted Starlight, floating in boundless Dark Space, each extending a light-like thread connecting them, forming a hexagonal pattern.
Such a pattern is typical within the Dantian of any Martial Artist who has reached the Star Wheel Realm Sixth Star.
However, the Star Wheel Universe Map is even more wondrous, incorporating the Space Law, Time Law, and other profound concepts to combine the six Star Powers into a three-dimensional mysterious pattern, causing the Star Power to unleash hundreds of times more strength.
The Star Wheel Universe Map's first diagram requires the combination of seven Star Powers to unleash a thousandfold Combat Power Amplitude.
Yet Lin Mo's body contained only six Star Powers. When he killed the Red Demon, he forcibly conjured the first diagram of the Star Wheel Universe Map, unleashing a five hundredfold Combat Power Amplitude.
Additionally, his meridians, remodeled by Heavenly Secret Silver, provided a hundredfold combat power amplitude, granting Lin Mo six hundredfold power in the Star Wheel Realm.
The Star Wheel Realm's foundation consists of six stars, equivalent to six combat power units, multiplied by a six hundredfold Combat Power Amplitude, equating to a burst of three thousand six hundred combat power units!
This Combat Power Amplitude is calculated with addition rather than multiplication, all based on the Star Power as the base unit. If it were multiplication, it would indeed be too terrifying.
The Moon Wheel Realm Peak only possesses a hundred combat power units, even with bursts reaching just a few hundred. The Early Sun Wheel Realm has a thousand base combat units, even with bursts reaching only two thousand units.
Faced with Lin Mo's instantaneous six hundredfold Combat Power Amplitude, his base combat units exploded into three thousand six hundred units, with the Red Demon initially underestimating Lin Mo, not even activating his combat power amplitude, getting killed by Lin Mo in one punch—something completely normal.
It can be said,
If Lin Mo condenses a seventh Star Power, realizing the complete Star Wheel Universe Map, he could instantly release seven thousand combat power units, truly terrifying. Thus, upon seeing the Star Wheel Universe Map, Lin Mo was shockingly impressed, wondering which extraordinarily talented Great Power created such an unrivaled cultivation technique.
However, every time the Star Wheel Universe Map is utilized, the Star Power within the body is drained completely, making it impossible to maintain six hundredfold combat power for long, usable only as a trump card.
Previously, Lin Mo considered Zhen Yuanzi his trump card, but now, Lin Mo feels his combat power can crush Zhen Yuanzi into ashes with a single punch.
"This Star Wheel Universe Map is too unrivaled. If it spreads, it might bring me considerable trouble, so it'd be better not to reveal it," Lin Mo pondered. "However, according to the records on the Eastern Emperor Bell, I've learned only the first diagram of the Star Wheel Universe Map. There should be more, although the bell doesn't record how many. Just the first diagram already grants me temporary six hundredfold combat power burst effects. I wonder how unrivaled the subsequent diagrams will be!"
