The Lord of Void and Real-Chapter 292 - 290: The Miracle of Buddha’s Light

Chapter 292: Chapter 290: The Miracle of Buddha’s Light

Although Shen Luo still had some Green Frost Rune Paper on him, he used most of it to draw the Thunderfall Talismans, so naturally, he couldn’t spare any to draw Wind Barrier Breaking Talismans now.

While the Divine Armor Horse Talisman didn’t have an explicit requirement for the Talisman Paper, the Talisman Ink it needed was quite special, its ingredients included a spiritual material known as “Earth Star Herb”.

Shen Luo had seen this herb in the Lubao Hall before; it was not considered a precious Spirit Grass. However, he did not know its use at that time, so he didn’t buy it. It was certain that he couldn’t buy it in Chunhua County Town now.

After a bit of sorting out, Shen Luo found that the only talisman he could try to draw at this time was the Mountain Crossing Talisman.

Once Shen Luo had prepared everything, he started drawing the Mountain Crossing Talisman.

Compared to other talismans he had drawn before, this one was of a lower grade and less complex.

Just ten days after starting to practice, the talisman was already beginning to show its spirit.

One morning, after Shen Luo had finished his meditation practice, he was planning on continuing to practice talisman drawing. But before he could start, he was interrupted by a knock on the door.

When he opened the door, he saw Nie Caizhu standing under the eaves with her maidservant, Little Spring.

“Miss Nie, what can I do for you?” Shen Luo asked with a smile.

Nie Caizhu looked hesitant and seemed to have some difficulty articulating.

“Young… Young Master, my lady would like to go to Yuanzhu Temple to offer incense, she was wondering if you can accompany her there.” Little Spring almost spilled out the word “son-in-law” but promptly changed tack.

After speaking, she stuck out her tongue apologetically at her lady.

“Cousin, if you’re busy, it’s fine, you don’t have to.” Nie Caizhu said.

“It’s no trouble, it’s no trouble. I’ll go with you.” Shen Luo shook his head immediately at her words.

Shen Luo suddenly realized that he had been so caught up in his practice recently that he had forgotten about his fiancée who had traveled a great distance to find him, causing him to feel a bit guilty.

“Thank you for your trouble then.” Nie Caizhu bowed slightly.

The three of them immediately left the mansion, took a carriage out of the city, and headed towards Yuanzhu Temple.

After the recent disturbance, the security outside Chunhua County Town had been obviously reinforced, and the peace had been restored.

The number of people going to Yuanzhu Temple to offer incense had also increased.

Shen Luo and his group had set off late, and when they arrived at Yuanzhu Temple, it was past the time when the worshippers competed for the first joss stick. People were already starting to leave the temple in successive groups.

Nie Caizhu took Little Spring into the hall to burn incense, and Shen Luo, a practitioner of Spring and Autumn Pavilion of the Daoist school, felt it inappropriate to enter the hall, so he decided to wait for them while walking around and appreciating the scenery of the temple.

Yuanzhu Temple was established many years prior and had been renovated several times. It looked drastically different from what Shen Luo remembered. Although he had visited here once before, he was focused on saving someone at that time and did not pay attention to the changes of the temple.

The surrounding buildings and walls were painted bright yellow, and there was still snow accumulated on the tops of the walls. The wall surfaces were inscribed with the Six True Words of Buddhism, and the sound of monks chanting sutras could be heard occasionally. The faint smell of burning incense permeated the air.

Walking through the temple grounds, Shen Luo felt a great sense of tranquility and peace.

“It’s appearing, it’s appearing again…”

“Look at the Buddha’s Light, there it is…”

…

Just then, a flurry of commotion erupted from all corners of the temple.

Shen Luo was puzzled and quickly ran back to the square in front of the Mahavira Hall, where he saw monks coming out from all different directions. They were clasping their hands together and chanting Buddha’s name while worshiping towards the sky.

Following the direction of the crowd, Shen Luo looked towards the sky behind the temple. A faint purple glow illuminated the sky, and the clouds above were stained a similar purple. It looked like a divine radiance.

Nie Caizhu and Little Spring also came out from the hall and looked in awe at the miraculous sight in the mid-air, joining their hands in reverence.

As Shen Luo watched the light, his nose suddenly wrinkled. He detected an unusual, strange fragrance in the air.

The fragrance was mingled with the aroma of the burning incense in the temple, not particularly noticeable, but the moment Shen Luo caught a whiff of it, he felt a slight fuzziness in his Sea of Knowledge. It wasn’t discomforting. In fact, it was rather pleasant.

Shen Luo turned his gaze to the others. Seeing the relaxed expressions on their faces, he found the situation more puzzling.

Just as he was following the scent to the back of the temple, passing through several gallery corridors and reaching near the Guanyin Hall, the strange fragrance suddenly disappeared.

While Shen Luo was still puzzled, he looked up and saw that the purple grandeur in the sky above the temple had disappeared.

He furrowed his brows and carefully probed the surroundings again but found nothing unusual, so he returned to the square.

The monks in the square had all returned to the Mahavira Hall, and some devotees were still discussing the “miracle” that had just briefly appeared, their faces glowing with excitement.

“Cousin, where did you go just now? Did you see the miraculous Buddha’s Light?” Nie Caizhu approached Shen Luo when he returned. Her face was still filled with excitement.

“Buddha’s Light Miracle? Are you referring to the purple light in the sky just now?” Shen Luo asked.

“Yes! That’s a unique miracle of Yuanzhu Temple. They say it only appears once every ten years or so. I’ve been here for so long and never saw it. I didn’t expect that I would be so lucky to see it while accompanying you.” Nie Caizhu’s eyes were filled with joy; she was clearly very interested in this.

“Young Master, it seems that you are destined with Buddhism.” Little Spring also chimed in joyfully.
