Chapter 1019: Buddha Goes to a Strange World
The medallion was incomplete. However, it was surrounded by marks of damage that made it clear that people had tried to take it in the past, but failed. With one look, Yang Qi knew that it was anything but ordinary. In fact, it immediately seemed to latch on to his soul, creating some sort of strange connection to him.
‘That’s definitely a piece of Mahātmā Jade,’ Yang Qi thought. ‘However, it's been sealed by something very powerful. Despite the generations that have passed, no devils have ever realized what it really is. But the Wretch-God Apostle got some of the will of the true Wretch-God from the god world, thus gaining a bit of information about it. Not even Archmonk Dharma Treasury, with his unfathomable cultivation base, knows what it is. If I can get it, I’ll finally be able to improve my psychic power, without using the psychic scaling systems.’
Yang Qi looked over at the Shepherd, who was performing breathing exercises right in front of the Mahātmā Jade. Every time he inhaled, the jade would tremble as though it were pulsing with immense power.
It stood to reason that the Shepherd was so strong he was invincible. His mere breathing could destroy universes, yet it wasn’t doing anything to the Mahātmā Jade.
If it really was that heavy, it must be very difficult to lift up.
Yang Qi’s first impulse was to try to take it. However, he knew that a slip the width of a single hair can lead you a thousand miles astray, therefore, the best thing to do was rely on Archmonk Dharma Treasury and his cultivation base.
Besides, when the archmonk made his move, it would always be possible for Yang Qi to take action on his own if necessary. And once he got the jade, he should be able to improve his will conversion quickly, even stepping into the Terrifying level.
He had to wonder if he would unlock any new abilities upon reaching that next level. Things were always changing, and he had no idea what would happen next. For years and years, he had always used the God Legion Seal, but after vanquishing his dependency-devils, he had begun relying on himself instead.
Perhaps once he reached the Terrifying level, he would be able to fuse all of the various energy arts he had into something of his very own.
"Buddha Goes to a Strange World!" shouted the Archmonk. At the same time, Yang Qi kept his will focused on the archmonk’s nascent divinity. In the blink of an eye, he felt himself become incredibly tiny, as though he were standing on the shoulder of an immensely gargantuan golden buddha.
That, of course, was the will of Archmonk Dharma Treasury, an expert whose psychic scale was above twenty. Of course, that was still very far from the mid Terrifying level. Only by having a psychic scale of a hundred could one be considered that strong.
‘Wait,’ Yang Qi thought, ‘if the Shepherd is in the mid Terrifying level, that means he has a psychic scale of at least a hundred. That’s simply too heaven-defying! I'm definitely no match for him.’
As Yang Qi watched on, Archmonk Dharma Treasury’s nascent divinity rapidly shrank, as did the manifestation of Yang Qi’s will on his shoulder. Soon, the archmonk was human-sized, and completely transparent.
With that, they stepped into the stone chamber with the Shepherd.
The Shepherd didn’t notice them, and just continued with his breathing exercises.
