My Lady Always Lacks Ambition
Chapter 1221 - 1165: Renewing the Rebel Bone, Unveiling the Evil Buddha’s Origins
The finger bone that originally did not belong to her was integrated into her body, connected with her flesh and blood. The overwhelming power ravaged within her, charging and crashing, and Qin Liuxi’s heart was filled with ferocity.
Yet she did not forcefully suppress this ferocity; instead, she allowed the power to impact her body, gritting her teeth and remaining as steady as a mountain.
To become him is not just a matter of words; she needs this power to be at her disposal, to control it, to achieve her desired purpose.
But there is a risk, that she might, like many who have used the Buddha Bone or spirit monsters, develop a rebellious intent, wanting to defy heaven and earth. Just like this finger bone, it was originally obtained from the favored actress Fusheng from Governor Xiao’s house.
After Fusheng’s death, she accidentally acquired this piece of Buddha Bone, enhanced ghost power, didn’t it cause her to slightly overturn the boat at the time?
It shows that the power of this Buddha Bone is strong yet evil, rebellious.
Compared to "Buddha Bone," Qin Liuxi prefers to call it "Rebel Bone."
Now, it is complete; two hundred and six bones surround her body, with two hundred and five being Rebel Bones, adding Si Luo’s one, it’s all set.
When the Rebel Bone moves, it wants to pierce the sky!
Fan Kong saw her face showing fierce expressions, his heart tightened, his lips quivered, and the soft Buddhist chant like a gentle breeze through rain overflowed, soothing all impatience. The solemn dharma form behind him emitted golden light, enveloping her as well.
Qin Liuxi’s brows twitched, her fingertips flicked, gradually calming down.
The chant was soft and soothing.
Snowflakes began to fall on Heavenly Mountain.
Qin Liuxi opened her eyes, and her vision fell on Fan Kong’s eternally serene face, with his bright eyes fixed on her, seemingly carrying a sense of scrutiny.
She curled her lips, her aura surged, and this aura was both righteous and evil. Fan Kong’s face slightly changed color, and he tightened the Buddha Beads in his hand.
Qin Liuxi looked at his defensively ready stance, retracted her aura, and, touching her left index finger, said, "It seems this finger bone is somewhat compatible with me, it even fooled you, was I pretending well?"
Fan Kong looked towards her index finger, saying, "The Evil Bone attached to you is indeed risky; your Dao Heart must be steadfast."
Si Luo was already a big trouble, but the person in front of him, her rebellious nature was no less than Si Luo’s. If she is assimilated by the Evil Buddha, she might pierce through the sky.
No one wishes to see that happen.
Qin Liuxi said, "If my Dao Heart is destroyed, I hope Master Fan Kong can guide me back to the Righteous Path."
Fan Kong looked at the centipede-like lines on her finger, remembering her calm demeanor while removing bones and replacing fingers, saying, "My Buddha is compassionate, the temple master is benevolent, and Buddha will surely bless."
"If Buddha has spirit, bless this world with peace, then we can be relieved."
"Just now I observed unrest in your mindset, is it because of it? After thousands of years, its influence is still so profound?" Fan Kong frowned and asked.
"He intended to ascend to heaven back then, had already achieved perfection, if not for his intent to sacrifice all living things to heaven, to become a dominator of the world, establishing new Heavenly Dao rules, with Buddhist and Taoist doors preventing and fighting against him, he should have succeeded. And his body..." Qin Liuxi sighed, pinched the finger bone, and said, "It was originally the reincarnation of Buddha’s son, that body naturally bore Buddha Bone relics—it was Buddha Body."
Fan Kong’s pupils contracted, "Being born with Buddha Body, how did he become Evil Buddha?"
A person like that, having achieved merit completion, why worry about not becoming True Buddha?
"If he was purely the reincarnation of Buddha’s son, it would not be a problem, but unfortunately his previous life practiced Dual Cultivation of Buddhist Path, and when he was born, he committed the Killing Life Tribulation."
Fan Kong was taken aback.
Qin Liuxi pursed her lips and said, "When he was born, his mother struggled with difficult labor, barely emerging from her body, his mother was already dying, he survived by drinking his mother’s blood."
"Drinking mother’s blood?" The woman was already dying, what kind of blood could a newborn without teeth drink?
"He summoned wolves, biting his mother’s blood vessel." Reincarnated Buddha’s son with innate spiritual power, like a spirit monster, summoning a wild wolf was easy.
Qin Liuxi continued, "Someone came upon this scene, and he appeared like an evil ghost drinking his mother’s blood, with wolves beside him, thus named him the ominous, born evil ghost."
Fan Kong’s heart trembled, "What happened next?"
"Afterward, he was thrown back into the forest, with wolves guarding him, he waited for an elderly monk named Pu Sheng, who took him into the Buddhist Sect, bestowed the name Si Luo, becoming an ascetic monk."
Fan Kong remained silent; he had browsed through Buddhist Sect texts and the archives extensively, there was little record of this figure, mostly noted for his persecution by Buddhist and Taoist doors, his personal history was scarce.
Unexpectedly, his history was like this.
Qin Liuxi also didn’t expect it; these memories were incomplete, fragmented, but his act of summoning wolves for self-rescue was shocking to her.
No matter his original intent, summoning wolves to kill his mother was a grave atrocity.
No wonder his bones carried evil, inciting ferocity, he inherently bore the sin of matricide, holding evil thoughts.
Qin Liuxi took a deep breath and said, "No matter his birth, what he did in the past, wanting to be a dominator with whatever original intent, he sacrificed all living things to heaven, making him the enemy of all living things."
Fan Kong nodded, "When will you break through the Boundless Barrier? Just joined this finger bone, maybe take some time?"
Qin Liuxi shook her head, "To avoid complications later, better to go sooner, at dawn we set off."
"If you fall into Endless Hell, then..."
"Then I will climb up from hell!" Qin Liuxi took over his words, smiling frankly.
Si Luo could crawl out from the depths of Nine Netherworld; why couldn’t she?
She would never give up!
"Rather than worrying about falling into Endless Hell, it’s better to worry about him discovering my attempt to break the Barrier. Once discovered, surely, we will confront directly, and the odds aren’t favorable."
Fan Kong’s expression was somewhat solemn, "It shouldn’t be possible; this monk has observed the stars at night too, the Emperor Star, though dim, declining national fortune, yet not the time for the Emperor Star to fall, thus the world remains manageable, his opportunity hasn’t arrived."
Qin Liuxi said, "That’s because he hasn’t unleashed the grand formation. Before then, he would stop anyone trying to thwart his plans, like me. If someone ruins his affairs, he’ll fight with full effort regardless of whether his opportunity has come."
"No!" Fan Kong shook his head without hesitation, she would be a key to his success or failure.
"Plans can’t keep up with changes; the situation remains uncertain, it’s better we prepare properly. As the saying goes, don’t fight unprepared battles." Qin Liuxi smiled, moving forward, "So now that it’s come to this, you see I have added this Evil Bone too; Fan Kong, don’t keep anything behind, for this world, for all living things, be compassionate, bring out the treasure of Heavenly Mountain Temple, just in case!"
Fan Kong: "..."
