Indestructible Body Of Vajra Of The Village Leader-Chapter 1367 - 1051: Heavenly Will Like a Blade! Return to Normal!
A man once determined to save the world ended up doing something that harmed it, and he must be filled with regret, desperately trying to find a way to make amends.
Unfortunately, sometimes good intentions cannot be carried out as planned, because everyone has many entanglements, which may be friends and family or spouses and parents. But this person’s entanglement is particularly special.
His entanglement is—Heavenly Will!
Heavenly Will is as cruel as a knife.
He is the pitiful one struggling under the knife, calculating how to survive beneath it.
Sadly, as he struggled under Heavenly Will, a single misstep led him to exploit Heavenly Will for profit, for a generous reward, to divine the future for someone already high above others.
That person had no troubles, only wanted to rise higher.
He personally wrote a comment for that person, "A carp is not a creature of the pond; once it encounters the wind and cloud, it becomes a dragon."
Just because of this comment, this Heavenly Mechanism that shouldn’t have been revealed, that person borrowed fortune to change fate, seizing the strength of Heavenly Will, carrying Heavenly Destiny, further boosting that person’s arrogance and ambition, causing that person to madly advance to the pinnacle, thus ushering in numerous brutal slaughters and chaos in the Martial World.
That person—was Xiong Ba!
The person who struggled under Heavenly Will—was him, Mud Buddha!
Bodhisattva Crossing the River—can barely protect himself.
So how can there be talk of turning the tide and saving the world?
But this time, he seized an opportunity, one that should be sufficient to restore chaos to order, allowing Heavenly Will to return to its normal course.
The perilous West Lake, Divine Stone changing position, Black Wind saving the world, annihilating the World Association—this was his last opportunity to seize.
Unfortunately, under the vast Heavenly Net, he is merely a fish swimming with the current. If he can ride with the current, he may achieve great deeds, but if he goes against it, he is bound to repeat past mistakes.
Thus, after arriving at West Lake, despite facing continuous obstruction, he never actively revealed the Heavenly Mechanism to resolve the situation but acted according to circumstance.
Just as he believed Heavenly Will would prevent him from meeting the Black Wind Village Chief in time, Heavenly Will once again changed.
At this time, a person with the fate chart of greed appeared, altering the flow of the water, leading him to Leifeng Tower.
He waited for five days...
On the fifth day, he finally met the renowned Black Wind Village Chief, a "fish that slipped through the net" under the vast Heavenly Net—a Heaven-defying Destiny Chart bearer!
From the moment he saw this rough and stern-looking, strong and imposing overlord figure, exuding extraordinary presence, he knew he had come to the right place. He had found the best opportunity to restore order, and he had found the best opponent to challenge the person bearing the Heavenly Destiny.
An unparalleled overlord!
In the world today, besides Xiong Ba of the World Association, who else deserves to be called an unparalleled overlord?
And this one—Black Wind Village Chief!
...
"Bu bu bu bu"!
The sound of turtle shells clashing with Copper Coins echoed incessantly inside the tent.
Jiang Dali’s thick eyebrows arched high, his wild tiger-like eyes underneath them stared intently at the elderly man, whose body was covered in poisonous sores and was swollen like a demon, as he performed a divination.
Beside him, standing tall in a green robe with bare hands, Po Jun also remained silent, waiting for the result of the divination.
Suddenly, the elder’s pus-covered hands paused, and a piercing sound echoed from within the turtle shell. As his palms tilted, Copper Coins immediately tumbled down the table, presenting a divination symbol before him, deepening the sorrow in the elder’s eyes.
"How is it?"
Jiang Dali’s lips curled coldly as he spoke.
After leaving Leifeng Tower, he had met Po Jun and the elder who had traveled a great distance to meet him.
The moment the elder removed his hat, Jiang Dali recognized him as the famous Mud Buddha.
From Po Jun and Mud Buddha’s words, he learned that the Divine Stone had fallen into Xiong Ba’s hands, leading to the current situation.
Knowing that the Divine Stone was in Xiong Ba’s possession, naturally, he intended to reclaim it.
To reclaim the Divine Stone, in Jiang Dali’s eyes, was not easy but also not impossible. At least from a planning perspective, it only required attacking the World Association to eliminate Xiong Ba and retrieve the Divine Stone.
This was something he had always wanted to do ever since he gathered the Heaven-defying Destiny Chart and broke through to the Returning to Truth Realm. Now it was the perfect time to accomplish it together.
However, Mud Buddha warned that reclaiming the Divine Stone from the one bearing the Heavenly Destiny was no simple matter because Heavenly Will would interfere, affecting the actions to reclaim the Divine Stone through every aspect of Xiong Ba’s surroundings and relationships of cause and effect.
These mystical and ethereal words naturally left Jiang Dali skeptical.
But given that the person before him was an authority in divining, his words must carry significant meaning, so his advice was worth listening to.
"Fortunately... unfortunately..."
Mud Buddha sighed, taking another deep look at the divination symbol on the table, then placed the turtle shell that was harder than his life on the table with a thud. Turning to Jiang Dali, he clasped his hands together and said, "Master Jiang, I can predict Heavenly Will, but I cannot defy it.
I can only tell you that to eliminate the one bearing Heavenly Destiny and end this world calamity, just ascending to the World Association may not be effective. You must go to three locations in this world to truly alter Heavenly Will and Destiny, ultimately defeating Xiong Ba and reclaiming the Divine Stone."
"Three locations?"
Jiang Dali’s brows furrowed again. "Which three locations? What do I need to do there?"
A hint of hesitation appeared on Mud Buddha’s bloated face, and he ultimately closed his eyes slowly, saying, "Travel eastward to find a force dominating one side, travel southward to find a person who shouldn’t exist, travel beneath your feet to find a tragic ghost..."
"What kind of answer is that?"
Jiang Dali, noticing the prompt appearing on the panel, grumbled discontentedly, "Please, Master, enlighten me clearly, instead of playing such riddles with Jiang."
Mud Buddha struggled to get up, sighing, "Heavenly Will is like a knife, and we are all just fish struggling in the wide Heavenly Net. Only you, Master Jiang, are the fish that slipped through the net. Why do you need to know so clearly?"
"The closer you get to the bait, the easier it is to be caught by the Heavenly Net..."
After speaking, the Mud Buddha put on his bamboo hat and walked out of the tent with a sense of melancholy, saying, "Heavenly Will is hard to defy... Heavenly Will is hard to defy..."
Jiang Dali frowned as he watched the Mud Buddha leave the tent and did not stop him, a cold snort in his heart, as he disliked dealing with these mysterious types. Every time he dealt with such people, he felt like suppressing them and giving them a good beating.
Liao Rushen was like that, Tianji Twenty-Five was like that, and so was the Mud Buddha.
However, compared to the latter two, Liao Rushen’s Realm seemed significantly lower, at least he would fear life and death and lightly regard Heavenly Will.
The latter two might think that even their own deaths were arranged by Heavenly Will. If you want to kill me, at most, I would try to escape a little.
If I can’t escape, dying by your hand is also Heavenly Will. Heavenly Will is hard to defy.
This is probably the reason why the latter two are so deeply entangled with Heavenly Will. The deeper the entanglement, the more they know, the harder it is to defy Heavenly Will, yet the more enlightened they become from knowing more—but such people are undoubtedly extremely painful.
"Master Jiang, it seems you’ve believed the prophecies spoken by this Mud Buddha?"
Po Jun looked at Jiang Dali and asked.
Given his previous personality, if he came to Leifeng Tower and didn’t see Jiang Dali, he would definitely ignore others’ obstructions and rush directly into the Leifeng Tower Base to find Jiang Dali.
But now, he is no longer the Po Jun of the past, having waited five days after arriving at Leifeng Tower until Jiang Dali came out on his own, this patience alone was a great improvement over before.
Jiang Dali naturally noticed the change in Po Jun, looked at him in response, and said lightly, "I would never let others’ words influence my own judgment, but if everything the Mud Buddha said comes true, my judgment will naturally change with the increased information and its changes."
After a pause in words, he looked at Po Jun with an odd expression and said, "You still haven’t told me how you know that the Divine Stone is in Xiong Ba’s hands? You seem to have changed a lot, not as arrogant and domineering as before."
Po Jun said calmly, "People change. The difference is that you haven’t changed, but I have. Initially, you sent me to Zhonghua Pavilion to make amends with an old adversary, which I didn’t expect to be Wu Ming, whom I regarded as a lifelong nemesis.
You wanted me to bow to Wu Ming, which is absolutely impossible. I would rather die by his hands.
But in the end, when I told him the truth about his wife’s death, he didn’t kill me. Of course, I wasn’t moved by this.
But I found that his strength had already surpassed mine by far, even reaching the level of the Heavenly Sword. My whole life, I’ve competed with him, and being left so far behind, I naturally wouldn’t accept it, so I calmed my mind, concentrated, tried to forget about swords, let go of swords, and also of past glory, pride, and ambition, honing the sword in my heart!"
"The sword in your heart?"
Jiang Dali nodded slightly, looking at Po Jun with surprise.
Po Jun said coldly, "Later, a strange person came to Zhonghua Pavilion to find Wu Ming. It was he who informed us that the Divine Stone is in Xiong Ba’s hands."
"Who was he?"
"The Divine General from the God-searching Palace!"
"The Divine General of the Seeking God Skill?" Jiang Dali was moved, thinking of the Fist Tao God who had been controlled by the God-searching Palace and turned into a Beast Slave against his will.
Po Jun said, "His strength is formidable. If you haven’t broken through to Returning to Truth, you might only be evenly matched with him. He told Wu Ming that the Divine Stone is in Xiong Ba’s hands. I don’t know if it was at the behest of the god from the God-searching Palace. If so, it is clear that the god from the God-searching Palace intends for Wu Ming to come out of retirement to deal with Xiong Ba."
Jiang Dali said, "What does Senior Wu Ming mean by this?"
Po Jun shook his head, "He played the erhu for a day, then asked me to set out to personally bring this message to you. I don’t know whether he is still in Zhonghua Pavilion or has already gone to the World Association."
Jiang Dali’s eyes flashed, and he suddenly laughed, "If Senior Wu Ming went to the World Association but couldn’t contend with Xiong Ba to reclaim the Divine Stone, then the Mud Buddha’s prophecy would indeed be accurate, and Xiong Ba, who bears Heavenly Destiny, couldn’t be subdued, even by a former Martial Arts Legend.
On the other hand, if not, Senior Wu Ming will surely reclaim the Divine Stone."
Po Jun said, "I have never crossed paths with Xiong Ba, so I don’t know his true power, but I do know Wu Ming’s strength. Xiong Ba is likely no match for Wu Ming. Do you think Wu Ming will ultimately reclaim the Divine Stone?"
"No!"
Jiang Dali said these two words without thinking, even surprising himself with the response.
Po Jun was also surprised, "Why?"
Jiang Dali recalled various descriptions of Wu Ming in ancient texts, shook his head, and sighed inwardly, "No particular reason, it’s just fate!"
Wu Ming’s fate, as teased by the family Players investigating his character and deeds in his past life, was the so-called—"full health playing the erhu, hurtling around at low health"—the fate of a wanderer. It was hard to understand why he wasn’t countered by Duan Lang, who excelled at crafty counterattacks.
It’s unclear whether Po Jun said Wu Ming played the erhu for a day before setting off for the World Association at full health?
However, regardless of what Wu Ming is doing now.
Jiang Dali knows he must start doing something.
Since it’s already known that the Divine Stone is in Xiong Ba’s hands, the grievances between him and Xiong Ba must also be concluded more swiftly and thoroughly.
He paced slowly inside the tent, but his eyes turned to the panel where a notice had just appeared.
