Chapter 29: Zenith Heaven Spell

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
All those monks who came down the mountain were evil people. They had come to the temple simply for the cultivation techniques.

In order to prevent this from happening, other families used the same method as well. Therefore, if Lin Yu wanted to borrow the Zenith Heaven Spell, he would become the enemy of the Feiyun Temple. Anyone who wanted to peek at the cultivation techniques of other sects, clans, or temples would make
himself an enemy and be hunted down by their disciples.

Lin Yu only wanted to borrow the cultivation technique book, not steal or snatch it. After finished reading, he would return it. Actually, he had never thought of stealing it or obtaining it by force.

But he knew well that unless he was already invincible, or he would be courting death if he tried to take other people’s cultivation techniques away. After all, he had just reached the Foundation Establishment stage. If the monks of the Feiyun Temple refused to lend him the Zenith Heaven Spell, he would
have to play dirty.

Just as he took a few steps into the temple, Lin Yu heard loud bangs keep coming from the forest behind the temple.
“Looks like they are uninvited guests.” It sounded like a group of people were engaged in an intense battle. As for their purpose, Lin Yu did not bother to think about it.
He walked around the main hall of the temple and came to a round stone door. When he went trhough it, he was greeted by a forest filled with weeds. Birds were chirping in unison. It was a scene full of vitality.
Under a huge ancient tree, a hunchbacked old monk was sweeping the leaves that fell to the ground to the side with a broom.
Lin Yu slowly walked to the monk and said with a smile, “Master, even if the leaves under the tree have been swept away, more will fall from the tree. When can you finish working?”

“Amitabha. Sir, your question is too mysterious. I’m only a humble monk sweeping the floor. I really can’t answer it. I only know that as long as I continue sweeping, these leaves and trees will eventually turn into dust.” the monk suddenly put down the broom in his hand and said to Lin Yu with his hands
clasped.

“Master, do you mean that you can live even longer than the tree?”

Upon hearing this, the hunchbacked monk suddenly froze. He raised his head and looked straight into Lin Yu’s eyes. His eyes were extremely unfathomable, as though they contained the most profound philosophy of life.

He calmly nodded and said, “That’s right!”

“Great, Master Xuanye! Just a simple sentence of yours is enough to enlighten me. I’m really impressed!” said Lin Yu with a smile.

He paused for a moment before continuing, “I heard that there are many records of Buddhist seniors in the Zenith Heaven Spell. It can be considered as the most influential book to the Buddhist disciples. I’m here to take a look at it.”

“amitabha!” Master Xuanye suddenly chanted. Then, he looked at Lin Yu with a faint smile and slowly said, “You are young, but you have quite the guts. Instead of trying to steal it, you’re asking us for it openly. It seems like a fight over the book is inevitable today.”
Just as Master Xuanye was about to say something harsh, he suddenly sensed the danger around him, and his hair stood on end in horror. When he took a closer look, he saw a flying sword circling around him and was constantly emitting fierce killing intent.
Clearly, this small flying sword had locked on him. As long as he dared to move, it could instantly kill him.

“You’re a Foundation Establishment Cultivator and your lifespan has reached 500 years. You’re already more than 300 years old now. You must be fed up with life. If you don’t want to continue living in this room, I’m willing to bring you to the Buddha.” Lin Yu had a wicked smile on his face. Although he
looked evil, he put everything on the table.

“Amitabha! Amitabha!” Monk Xuanye calmly said as if nothing had happened, “A visitor is a guest. From your appearance, I can tell that you are blessed. A handsome and noble man like you is definitely the distinguished guest of the Feiyun Temple. Needless to say, we will try our best to satisfy you. If you
want the Zenith Heaven Spell, just take it.”

“As expected, this person is not only extremely shameless, but is flexible and capricious!” Lin Yu thought and was in a good mood.
However, this was all within the scope of his prediction. It was because the person in front of him was a character from his novel. He designed everything about him, and he was just as shameless as the character he wrote. Lin Yu new him very well, just like how a father knew his son.
Lin Yu had read more than 100 novels at least, and he was sick of those monks the others created. He wanted to make an exception and create a different one. And it was the monk in front of him. From the conversation just now, one could tell how shameless he was.

“Theard that Master Xuanye has gourd liquor. I wonder if I can taste it.” Lin Yu immediately revealed a smile as if his scheme had succeeded.

“How does this brat know everything” Xuanye’s mouth twitched as he thought to himself.

Back when Xuanye was reading a novel, there was a sweeping monk who looked humble on the surface, but was actually a peerless martial artist. He hid his strength and took action at the critical moment to turn the tide just like a savior. This made Xuanye yearn for it, so he started sweeping as well..
