Cultivation System: Stronger with Age Chapter 1168 495: Supreme Perfection Realm
Previously on Cultivation System: Stronger with Age...
Lin Xuankong held a firm conviction that, while he wasn't entirely unperceptive, he couldn't possibly be described as possessing a mind of absolute purity, let alone being a great sage with perfect enlightenment!
Consequently,
at this precise moment, Lin Xuankong could only place his hopes on the possibility that
this Golden Body Demon Suppression Technique from Spirit Platform Buddhism would not impose excessively stringent prerequisites regarding so-called Buddha Nature and Wisdom Root!
After all, there were documented instances where special cultivation techniques, such as those adopted by Young Lady Li Xiaolan, Second Lady Zhao Yufei, and Third Lady Xiaoo Ying'Er, all demanded specific attributes related to bone structure and bloodline!
With a prickle of apprehension in his heart, Lin Xuankong turned his gaze toward the diminutive Bodhisattva Galin and posed his question:
"Galin Bodhisattva, I specifically requested you remain because I seek your assistance with a certain matter!"
Upon hearing his words, the young Bodhisattva Galin appeared somewhat taken aback and hastily waved her hands, stating, "Immortal Lin, such talk is unnecessary. Please, simply issue your instructions to Galin if there is anything you require."
Lin Xuankong's esteemed Eighth-Grade Immortal Artifact had been instrumental in empowering the Great Success Jade Bright Bodhisattva to attain the Jade Bright Celestial Buddha status, thereby rescuing little Bodhisattva Galin's mentor from the precipice of death. Furthermore, this feat bestowed immeasurable honor upon Spirit Platform Buddhism, a Sect that had not witnessed a single Great Accomplishment Bodhisattva ascend to the Upper Realm in countless millennia, and instilled a profound sense of hope for the future among the numerous junior Bodhisattvas of the Spirit Platform Buddhism! In light of such monumental benevolence, little Bodhisattva Galin now regarded Lin Xuankong with absolute veneration, her admiration for him being exceptionally profound!
Under these circumstances, how could little Bodhisattva Galin possibly bear the courteous approach extended by Lin Xuankong!
Observing little Bodhisattva Galin's reaction, Lin Xuankong couldn't help but reminisce about the initial encounter he had with this exceptional disciple of the Great Success Yu Zhen Bodhisattva. Back then, little Bodhisattva Galin's standing within the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect and the Western Region of the Central Divine Dynasty was virtually unmatched. Yet, at that time, he himself was merely a humble youth hailing from a remote village, embarking on his quest for immortality and the Dao in the Western Region of the Central Divine Dynasty. Now, after more than a decade had passed, the tides had turned, and the transformation was nothing short of monumental!
In those days, little Bodhisattva Galin was held in high regard by the Sect Master of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, Elder Chi Liuxia of the Wine Immortal Sect, and other revered elders. Now, however, she appeared somewhat disoriented in his presence, akin to a child facing a parental figure!
"Galin Bodhisattva, there is absolutely no need for such formality between us. We have been acquainted for many years, so let us dispense with excessive restraint. You need not persist in addressing me as 'Immortal.' Moreover, given that I am currently seeking your assistance, the need for such rigid formality diminishes even further!
Regarding the favor I wish to ask of Galin Bodhisattva... I am interested in learning about the Golden Body Demon Suppression Technique!" Lin Xuankong articulated.
A flicker of surprise crossed little Bodhisattva Galin's countenance, and she directed a look of mild astonishment at Lin Xuankong. "The Golden Body Demon Suppression Technique? Immortal Lin, what prompts your sudden inquiry about this technique? Are you perhaps contemplating this Body Refining technique of my Spirit Platform Buddhism? This particular technique..."
Having spoken thus, little Bodhisattva Galin fell into a contemplative silence.
A premonition of unease began to stir within Lin Xuankong's heart, and he furrowed his brow as he stated, "To be candid with you, Galin Bodhisattva, I, Xuankong, am indeed keenly interested in this Golden Body Demon Suppression Technique that your Sect practices. Should I be fortunate enough to receive your guidance and instruction on this matter, it would be immensely appreciated! However... does the cultivation of this Golden Body Demon Suppression Technique necessitate joining Spirit Platform Buddhism and becoming a novice monk? Or perhaps, does mastering this technique demand a specific Wisdom Root, innate talent, or a particular bloodline?"
Perceiving Lin Xuankong's troubled expression, little Bodhisattva Galin swiftly shook her head and responded:
"Not at all!
Immortal Lin's intervention was pivotal in aiding my mentor, the Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva, to achieve the Celestial Buddha Fruit Position. This act, in essence, preserved countless prodigious talents throughout the Immortal Realm, including individuals from the Wine Immortal Sect! Such a profound act of kindness, such immense merit, is virtually unparalleled within the Immortal Realm. How could my Spirit Platform Buddhism possibly quibble over sectarian affiliations or insist that Immortal Lin join our ranks before imparting knowledge of the Golden Body Demon Suppression Technique?"
Not only that, but this Golden Body Demon Suppression Technique doesn't hinge on any particular condition related to one's Wisdom Root, talent, or bloodline. It's a technique that the countless disciples of my Spirit Platform Buddhism can practice, and indeed, any cultivator who gains possession of this Golden Body Demon Suppression Technique can cultivate it without facing any hindrances tied to their bloodline or bone structure! Lin Xuankong couldn't help but raise an eyebrow upon hearing this. "That's peculiar. When I mentioned the Golden Body Demon Suppression Technique just now, your reaction, Noble Galin Bodhisattva..." Little Bodhisattva Galin let out a soft sigh before circulating her Immortal Yuan throughout her body. In the very next moment, a multitude of Buddhist Secret Patterns materialized across her entire form. Her body became enveloped in a radiant Buddha's Light, projecting an image of upright solemnity that was simultaneously awe-inspiring! Observing this from nearby, the Strongest Immortal Lord Guang Yu'er couldn't help but narrow her eyes and furrow her brow. "This surge of energy from the technique... the technique Bodhisattva Galin is currently employing bears a resemblance to the Golden Body Demon Suppression Technique that Yu Zhen Celestial Buddha displayed previously. However, the sense of oppression seems somewhat lacking!" Bodhisattva Galin offered a slight nod before retracting the technique. "Immortal Lord Guang's intuition is accurate; Galin did indeed just utilize the Golden Body Demon Suppression Technique. It's just that Immortal Lord Guang's words are perhaps too polite. The Golden Body Demon Suppression Technique I'm demonstrating, when compared to the one employed by Jade Bright Celestial Buddha, differs by more than just a slight variation in oppressive power! The Golden Body Demon Suppression Technique I execute is barely at the Entry Level, managing to form only a few dozen Golden Body Secret Patterns. In contrast, the Golden Body Demon Suppression Technique that Jade Bright Celestial Buddha wielded during her tribulation achieved the state of Perfection. She is the sole Great Accomplishment Bodhisattva within my Spirit Platform Buddhism to have reached the Perfection Realm, boasting a hundred thousand Golden Body Secret Patterns!" With that explanation, Bodhisattva Galin turned her gaze towards Lin Xuankong and continued: "This Golden Body Demon Suppression Technique demands the consumption of a tremendous amount of Immortal Yuan to manifest exceedingly intricate Buddhist Secret Patterns within every minuscule part of the body. Each pattern that is formed bestows the strength equivalent to a First Level Buddhist Dragon Elephant Power, possessing immense might. Furthermore, it can coalesce into a Golden Patterned Buddha Shield, capable of withstanding all manner of assaults!"
