I was already at the Seal Celestial Master Completion Realm. Although I didn't dare to be arrogant and think that I could kill him, I could definitely escape unscathed.
As such, I wasn't in a hurry to attack. I was curious about this evil technique and wanted to see what this monk was capable of.
While I was thinking, the amulet had already become as tall as a person. The monk didn't hold it in his hand anymore, but stood it on the ground.
However, he didn't stop chanting. I didn't know how big he wanted the Buddha to become before he stopped.
As I was thinking about this, the monk suddenly opened his eyes and said to me in broken Chinese, "You really don't know the immensity of heaven and earth. You actually dare to stand here and wait for your death!"
My expression didn't change. I ignored his provocation and looked at the Buddha that was as tall as a person.
I had a feeling that this Buddha wasn't as simple as just growing bigger.
Indeed, when the monk saw that I didn't respond, he closed his eyes and continued chanting. The Buddha didn't grow bigger, but its body gradually emitted black smoke.
The rolling smoke gradually formed the appearance of Shakyamuni.
The Buddha made of smoke, under the monk's control, swung its palm at me.
The palm was extremely fast. Even with my current Seal Celestial Master Completion Realm cultivation, I couldn't immediately block it, so I could only dodge.
In the blink of an eye, a loud sound came from where I was standing, and a lot of smoke and dust rose.
After the dust settled, there was a five-finger-deep pit that was several meters deep.
I was shocked. I didn't expect a phantom to have such power. It seemed to be comparable to the Yang God Celestial Master's Yang God.
I didn't dare to be careless. Immediately, I mobilized the Dao energy in my body to the Armor Removing Sword. I stepped on the Nine Star Heavenly Dipper and slashed at Shakyamuni.
The phantom seemed to come to life. When it saw my sword energy, it met it with another palm.
Unfortunately, it still underestimated my strength. Even an ordinary Yang God Celestial Master wouldn't dare to take my sword head-on, let alone a mere phantom.
When the huge palm met the Armor Removing Sword energy, it immediately dissipated.
However, the Armor Removing Sword energy didn't weaken in the slightest.
Wherever the Armor Removal Sword Qi passed through, the thick black fog would dissipate.
When the statue of the Sakyamuni Buddha dissipated, the monk's body trembled and he coughed up a mouthful of blood. His face turned deathly pale.
The Buddha statue, which was as tall as a person, returned to its original form and landed on the ground with a crisp sound.
I withdrew my stance and walked toward the monk. In a low voice, I said, "I didn't want to fight with you, but you've stirred up trouble. Don't blame me for not showing mercy to your Jinshan Temple."
As he spoke, the Armor Stripping Sword in his hand was already in front of his neck.
The monk seemed to realize that he couldn't escape death today. He didn't make any noise and simply closed his eyes, waiting for my sword to fall.
Just as I was about to take action, a familiar voice sounded from behind me. "Lord, please spare his life."
This person was Arati. Perhaps he had sensed the fight earlier and wanted to see what was going on.
However, since the monk had been rude to me, I could have just killed him. I didn't know why Arati was begging for mercy.
However, since the monk didn't have the strength to fight back, I wasn't in a hurry. I wanted to hear what Arati had to say.
I put away the Armor Remover Sword and turned to look at Ala Ti.
He quickly walked toward me and bowed to greet me. He didn't waste any time and directly told me that the monk was called Dragon Popo Kui and that he was a monk of Jinshan Temple.
If I kill this person, it will definitely attract the revenge of Jinshan Temple.
I had already expected this. This person had the cultivation base of a Heavenly Seal Master. According to Thai Buddhism's ranking system, he deserved the title of Dragon Popo.
However, the Dragon Popo of Jinshan Temple couldn't do anything to me. Who else could fight me?
Arati saw that my expression didn't change. Perhaps he knew what I was thinking.
He moved closer to me and whispered, "This Jinshan Temple has a Dragon Popo, and I heard that there's a Zhao Kun."
Although I didn't know what these terms meant, from Ala Ti's expression, I could guess that Long Pu and Zhao Kun were stronger than Venerable Father Dragon.
Venerable Father had a high status in Thai Buddhism. If he was killed, it would alert Loong Pu and Chao Kun, whom Arati mentioned.
At that time, it would indeed be a little troublesome.
It would have been fine if he didn't know about it earlier, but now that he knew about it, he felt a little apprehensive.
However, this is nothing to me. Even if I kill all these monks, I can't guarantee that this matter won't be leaked.
However, since Ala Ti knows me, the Jade Buddha Temple might be dragged into this mess. At that time, there will be a huge commotion, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
However, if I don't kill them, the people of Jinshan Temple will definitely find trouble with me again. At that time, a battle will be inevitable.
However, on second thought, if he spared their lives, they wouldn't end up in a situation where they had to fight to the death.
With a decision in my heart, I no longer hesitated.
He put the Armor Removing Sword back into the Xiang Liu Pouch and signaled Ala Ti to leave this place quickly.
Ala Ti didn't dare to be negligent. He nodded repeatedly and followed me out of the forest, heading toward the Jade Buddha Temple.
Wulong's Biman Palace wasn't far from the Jade Buddha Temple. Along the way, Ala Ti kept apologizing to me, saying that he didn't know that I was in Thailand. Moreover, the King had been listening to a Zen sermon in the Jade Buddha Temple. That was why he didn't treat me well.
The King that Ala Ti mentioned must be the old man who was sitting quietly in the Jade Buddha Hall.
I had already expected this, so I didn't mind it.
Although he called me the Son of God, I couldn't compare to the King of Thailand. I knew what was more important.
I waved my hand, indicating that he didn't need to worry about it.
I just wanted to come to Thailand, but I didn't contact them beforehand. I even attacked the Buddhist monks in the King's Palace. I was a little rash.
When Ala Ti heard me, he stopped and bowed to me. "Sir, please don't misunderstand. Our Jade Buddha Temple and Jinshan Temple don't have a good relationship.
Not only do we have a good relationship, but we've also been enemies for many years. "
I've already sensed the situation in his words when I was in the dense forest.
However, it was Thai Buddhism's business, so I couldn't ask or intervene.
That was why I had agreed to spare those people's lives because I wanted to give the Jade Buddha Temple face.
I had come here to ask for something, and if I didn't act friendly, I was afraid it would be inconvenient.
I didn't care about that, so I told him not to be so formal.
After listening to me, Ala Ti nodded and followed me. He didn't say anything else.
He didn't say anything else. I had some doubts that I wanted him to answer.
He had mentioned that Jinshan Temple had Long Pu and even Zhao Kun.
I didn't know much about Thailand's division of realms. The only thing I knew about the Three Spirits Realm was from him in Shenzhen.
Ala Ti didn't dare to hide anything from me.
According to him, in Thai Buddhism, Long Pu was one level higher than Venerable Father Dragon, which was equivalent to the Yang God Celestial Master Realm in China.
Zhao Kun's status was even higher than Long Pu's, and Zhou Guan was above him.
Zhou Guan was the title given by the King. It was said that his cultivation base had reached the level of God.
After listening to him, I had a general understanding of Thailand's division of realms.
In other words, Venerable Father Dragon was a Seal Heavenly Master, Long Pu was a Yang God Celestial Master, and Zhao Kun was a Yang God.
From this, I knew that Zhou Guan had ascended to the Heavenly Realm.
Ascending to the Heavenly Realm meant that he had reached the peak of cultivation. It was reasonable to describe him as a God.
I then asked Ala Ti if he knew how many Zhou Guan there were in Thailand.
He told me that Zhou Guan was just a legend. Until now, there hadn't been any accurate records of him. At this moment, he only knew Zhao Kun.
I nodded. It made sense. Thailand's population and territory couldn't compare to China's. With such a large population, the probability of having someone with such a cultivation base wasn't high. Even if there was someone with such a high cultivation base, he would have ascended to the Heavenly Realm and wouldn't have stayed in the human world.
That was why my question was meaningless. I was more interested in the Zhao Kun he had mentioned.
He had previously mentioned that there was a Zhao Kun in the Golden Mountain Temple.
Of course, I wasn't afraid of Long Pu of Jinshan Temple. When I was at the middle stage of the Seal Realm, I had the power to fight against Yang God Celestial Master, let alone now that I was at the peak stage of the Seal Realm.
However, Zhao Kun was equivalent to the Ascending Realm. With my current cultivation base, the gap between us was too big.
If those monks could invite Zhao Kun to deal with me, I wouldn't be able to deal with him alone since the evil sacrificial spirit wasn't with me.
I hurried to ask Ala Ti if it was true.
After listening to me, Ala Ti shook his head. He was a little hesitant as he said, "I'm not sure. I've only heard people talking about it."
This vague answer made me a little worried.
However, it was better to believe it than not. I had to be prepared.
I was in a foreign country, and I didn't have anyone I could rely on. Speaking of friendship, I only knew Ala Ti.
However, if Jinshan Temple had the rumor about Zhao Kun, I guessed the Jade Buddha Temple also had the same rumor. No matter what, the Jade Buddha Temple's status was second to none in the entire Thai Buddhism world. In terms of power, they wouldn't lose to Jinshan Temple.
With that in mind, I quickly asked Alati about it. After listening to me, he wore a sad expression, as though I had brought up something sad. After a moment of silence, he explained to me the reason behind it.
According to him, the Jade Buddha Temple's status was second to none in the Thai Buddhism world. However, it was different from the other temples. Besides chanting Buddhist scriptures every day, they also needed to worship the power of the Nine Spirits. They hoped that they could get the approval of the power of the Nine Spirits.
Only after they got the approval of the power of the Nine Spirits could they become the Holy Son and advance to the Venerable Father level.
However, after they advanced to the Long Pu level, they had to worship the power of the Nine Spirits.
Without the power of the Nine Spirits' order, they couldn't go out on their own.
