It's a pity there's still Nangong... she's already been snatched away.
Thinking of Nangong, Fahai frowned slightly.
I wonder where she is now? And what is she doing?
I need to find an Opportunity to inquire.
He remembered very clearly that in the original novel of "Sword Snow Stride," Nangong had encountered Xu Fengnian on her way to Northern Liang.
From this, it can be inferred that Nangong might have already set off for Northern Liang.
Currently, he was in the Liyang Dynasty, precisely in the four states of Wangliang.
It seems I should also make a trip to Northern Liang.
However, his actions this time were not small.
Perhaps Nangong would also notice.
Just as Fahai was deep in thought,
Suddenly, the familiar voice of the System rang in his ears.
【Ding! Detected that the host has broken the precept of lust.】
【Ten accumulated broken precepts, triggering a critical reward.】
Goodness, another critical reward!
Fahai couldn't help but feel energized.
He wondered if opening this gift package would bring any surprises.
"Open the gift package."
Fahai murmured in his mind.
Immediately after, the System's prompt sounded again.
【Congratulations to the host for acquiring the Divine Ability — Zhang Liu Golden Body.】
Instantly, a large amount of information flooded his mind.
All of it was a description of "Zhang Liu Golden Body."
This Divine Ability can condense a Golden Body Incarnation, existing like a guardian spirit.
Similar to "Heaven and Earth Manifestation" or "Susanoo."
It possesses extremely strong offensive capabilities.
This Divine Ability is divided into three stages: Entry, Minor Achievement, and Major Achievement.
The evaluation standard is based on the height of the Golden Body.
Those who have just entered the path can condense a three-zhang Golden Body; Minor Achievement can transform into a six-zhang Golden Body.
If Cultivated to the Peak Realm, one can summon a Nine Zhang Golden Body, capable of shattering mountains and splitting the earth, omnipotent!
Undoubtedly, this was an extremely powerful combat Divine Ability.
It directly elevated his combat power to a new level.
Fahai couldn't hide his excitement and immediately tried to activate the power of the Divine Ability.
Specks of golden light appeared behind him and rapidly condensed.
Upon entry, it was already a three-zhang Golden Body.
Amidst the flickering golden light, a solemn and sacred Arhat Golden Body slowly emerged behind him.
Its appearance even bore some resemblance to him.
The Golden Body was majestic and solemn, with a magnificent Aura, enveloped in a vast Buddhist intent that inspired awe.
The radiance was dazzling!
Fahai could clearly feel that this Golden Body was by no means an illusory decoration.
The power contained within it was incomparably overbearing!
Compassionate at heart, yet possessing the means of a Vajra!
A wrathful Vajra, subduing all demons!
This Arhat Golden Body was both mighty and solemn.
Coupled with its slightly handsome appearance,
It appeared even more extraordinary.
Fahai slowly clenched his fist, and the Golden Body behind him also clenched its fist.
Immediately, a powerful force, like a surging river, filled his entire body!
With such strength, even a Great Grandmaster, what was there to fear?
And this was merely the initial three-zhang Golden Body.
What kind of sight would the six-zhang Golden Body be?
Perhaps it would only be possible to condense it after reaching the Late Stage of the Grandmaster Realm.
As for the highest-tier Nine Zhang Golden Body.
Even if one reached the Grandmaster Realm, it was unknown whether it could be successfully summoned.
Just then, an exclamation came from outside the room.
"Buddha, the Buddha has appeared!"
Little Monk Xuzhu suddenly rushed out of the room, plunged into Fahai's meditation room, and knelt on the ground.
He didn't even dare to look more than once, devoutly kowtowing.
He continuously recited the Buddha's name.
"amitabha, amitabha..."
Fahai was a little exasperated.
"Xuzhu, get up."
Xuzhu, who thought a miracle had descended and was wholeheartedly kowtowing, suddenly heard a voice he couldn't be more familiar with.
He was stunned, slowly looked up, and indeed, it was Senior Brother Fahai!
"Fa... Senior Brother Fahai?!"
Xuzhu's face was filled with shock, his mind blank for a moment.
"You, you, you..."
At this moment, Fahai was enveloped in golden light, his expression solemn and dignified.
Behind him, the true form of an Arhat appeared, magnificent in Aura, awe-inspiring.
Under the illumination of that golden light, Fahai was like a Buddha Incarnation, sacred and inviolable.
"How is this possible!"
Xuzhu finally couldn't help but shout out...
How could it be Senior Brother Fahai!
Fahai's strength was well-known.
But the manifestation of the Buddha, the descent of an immortal spirit... what did that have to do with the level of Cultivation?
Why would such an anomaly appear?
Xuzhu was utterly bewildered, his brows tightly furrowed.
In his impression, Fahai had always been unrestrained and never took the monastic rules seriously.
Especially last night—
He had personally seen Miss Wanwan enter Fahai's room and not come out afterward.
How could such a person, who repeatedly violated temple rules, receive the favor of the Buddha?
Fahai himself was a little stunned, gazing blankly at everything before him.
A thought emerged in his mind.
Could it be... Senior Brother Fahai is truly a person of destiny?
Fahai retracted the three-zhang Golden Body, quite satisfied with this power and might.
The only problem was that Xuzhu had mistaken him for the Buddha himself.
The thought was quite amusing.
This Little Monk, he's really adorable.
Having spent this time together, Fahai had long understood Xuzhu's character.
He was a good person, just a bit earnestly foolish, kind-hearted, and worth befriending.
He was definitely not the kind of person who would betray or stab someone in the back.
He remembered that back on Wuliang Mountain, facing many Martial Forest experts, Xuzhu's martial arts were mediocre, and he was clearly terrified, yet he still stepped forward.
Now he saw him packing his bags, as if preparing to depart.
"Are you leaving so soon?"
Xuzhu nodded: "This Little Monk has been away from the temple for a long time and has not yet seen my Masters."
My heart is troubled, and it's time to go back and see them."
Fahai nodded slightly, "Very well. If you encounter difficulties in the future, you can come to Shaolin to find me."
"Since we are brothers, I will certainly do my utmost to help."
He knew that Xuzhu had a difficult background and a challenging future.
Moreover, many Opportunities that should have belonged to him had been taken by himself in advance.
Giving a promise was not excessive.
Xuzhu said gratefully, "Thank you, Senior Brother Fahai."
After speaking, he turned and left.
Fahai watched him depart, then turned his gaze to another room.
There, Su Xinghe and his party were waiting for him.
Another troublesome matter.
Fahai smiled helplessly.
Meanwhile, Tianji Tower was already packed with people.
The crowd in the tower was bustling, shoulder to shoulder.
Despite the cramped space, people kept pouring in, and no one was willing to leave.
Because today, Tianji Tower was about to release a new ranking!
The Jianghu was surging with undercurrents, and the ranking was bound to change.
This was personally stated by Zhang Jinjiu, the Number One Under Heaven detective.
This heavenly pride ranking was very likely to update its candidates.
Everyone held their breath, waiting to see if that Little Monk Fahai could make it onto the ranking.
Outside Tianji Tower.
Two beggars, one old and one young, sat cross-legged, holding chicken legs, eating them while looking at the bustling crowd in front of Tianji Tower.
Grease dripped down their wrists.
"Young Master, why does this chicken leg taste strange?"
"It's supposed to be strange. We picked this chicken leg up, just eat it."
"Ah?"
"What, Old Huang, are you picky?" The old beggar quickly waved his hand, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, "Young Master, if you can't finish it, give it to me."
"If you like spoiled food, take it."
"Get lost."
The youth quickly gnawed the chicken leg clean, even sucking the bones dry, leaving only a pile of crumbs.
Only then did he stop, still wanting more.
