Chapter 261: Chapter 199: Knowing the Future
Lin Xing looked at his phone, continuously searching for news on Da Guangming Temple, Xingxiao Sect, and other sects calling together major forces to participate in a grand meeting between two realms.
"Summoning each country and force from both realms to discuss the possibilities of peaceful development between them..."
"Is it set for two months from now?"
"A conference is actually going to be held, involving not just the national leaders of the present world but also inviting the powerful figures from Mirror World?"
Lin Xing turned to Bai Yiyi beside him and asked, "Master Bai, do you think this meeting can actually take place? Those strong figures from Mirror World always act as they wish; would they really come to such a meeting?"
Bai Yiyi stroked her chin and said, "This is essentially a martial arts gathering. If so many strong figures really come together to discuss matters, wouldn’t they end up fighting?"
"If it were just the Xingxiao Sect organizing this, probably nobody would pay them any attention."
"But this time it’s not just Xingxiao Sect. Da Guangming Temple, Taihe Sect, Taiqing Sect, Zhou Tian Sect, and Evil-cutting Sect are all initiating it."
"Four of the nine major sects are involved, plus the Xingxiao Sect. The Great Zhou Court is likely supporting it too."
"With this lineup, other sects that initially didn’t want to join would have to come, otherwise if some agreements or alliances are formed during the meeting, those who didn’t attend would be at a loss."
Bai Yiyi sighed and said, "I heard from Tian Jizi that, aside from the Great Bright Buddha and Yun Hezi of Taihe Sect, another person you confronted at She Shen Cliff was the Sect Leader of Xingxiao Sect, right?"
"And that person who helped you recover your memories, he seems to be the Second Elder of Zhou Tian Sect on the surface, but since he could help with your memory recovery, he might be one of Taiching’s avatars, or an avatar possessing Yuhua Reincarnation."
"It seems that after the battle at She Shen Cliff, aside from seizing that ultimate Cultivation Technique, the Xingxiao Sect Leader also teamed up with Da Guangming Temple, Taihe Sect, Taiqing Sect, and Zhou Tian Sect to hold this grand meeting."
"This shows how strong the Xingxiao Sect Leader’s influence is in Mirror World."
"I wonder what their real intention is for holding this grand meeting."
Lin Xing pondered the information about the meeting, and after a long while, he looked up with a hint of uncertainty in his eyes.
"Are those scenes I saw really visions of the future?"
"Was what I saw not an illusion?"
After glancing at Little Lin Xing who was floating behind Bai Yiyi, examining the girl’s phone non-stop, Lin Xing suddenly stood up.
He walked over and grabbed Little Lin Xing’s head, then smashed it against the wall.
In the next moment, his vision swirled with light and shadows, and he found himself seemingly transported to another space. He saw at the airport, a group of officials from Xia Country speaking with several monks, who then led another group of people onto a plane.
Watching the group boarding the plane, Lin Xing suddenly felt one of them looked very familiar.
But before Lin Xing could clearly grasp what was happening, he found himself back in his own room.
"Monks? Are they from Da Guangming Temple?" Lin Xing recalled the scenes he had just seen and thought inwardly, "Is there still a connection with Da Guangming Temple domestically?"
Zhao Wanxi widened her eyes at Lin Xing who had hit the wall and asked cautiously, "Senior brother, are you alright?"
Lin Xing glanced at her and asked, "Did you see that I was hitting a floating head?"
Zhao Wanxi’s expression grew increasingly strange; she seemed to remember how he used to randomly kill people he encountered on the streets and couldn’t help but step back, saying, "Senior brother, please don’t do this, I’m scared."
Meanwhile, Bai Yiyi calmly said, "What’s there to be afraid of? It’s just hitting his head against the wall."
Simultaneously, numerous scenes flashed through Bai Yiyi’s mind.
Those were the memories of Bai Yiyi being continuously reviewed in the Puppet Girl’s mind.
She remarked, "Throughout history, which expert who has reached the high realms of martial arts and spell isn’t a bit crazy?"
"My good disciple, let me teach you another trick of the Jianghu today."
"In this Jianghu, besides nicknames, another way to gauge someone’s strength is to see how normal a person seems."
"The more ordinary and normal-looking someone is, showing absolutely no signs of insanity, the more likely their skills are mediocre."
"But the ones who seem crazy, with all sorts of eccentricities, acting unpredictably, always doing and saying strange things, those are the ones whose skills are often very strong."
Zhao Wanxi was startled and said, "Is that so?"
Bai Yiyi nodded and said, "Of course, with so many years of experience in Jianghu from your old master, would I still deceive you?"
At this point, Lin Xing thought to himself, "In the eyes of others, am I hitting my head against the wall?"
He then remembered how in Jing Shiyu’s eyes, his actions of causing harm to Little Lin Xing seemed like acts of self-harm.
A flicker of realization crossed his mind, and he suddenly stimulated a surge of Sword Intent directly towards his palm.
Instantly, the light and shadows shifted before his eyes, and Lin Xing found himself back at the airport, witnessing the same scenes.
This time he finally clearly saw that those following the monks onto the plane were disciples from Da Guangming Mountain.
With new scars forming on his hand, Lin Xing had more thoughts about the situation before him.
"Three times, only the first three are effective."
"Once is by bumping heads, twice is by slicing open the palm."
"Each time I saw scenes from the airport."
Lin Xing looked at the injury on his palm and thought to himself, "But only the first three times can one see the future, after that, it’s useless."
"Could it be that it can only be activated three times a day?"
After some thought, Lin Xing took out his phone and called Jing Shiyu.
"Hello? Can you check if a group of Da Guangming Temple’s followers has been handed over to Da Guangming Temple?"
"If you don’t find anything, also keep an eye out for me. If something like this happens, let me know."
Right after Lin Xing finished the call, Little Lin Xing’s voice chimed in, "Do you now believe that this is our own divine skill? You’re finally seeing clearly."
Lin Xing glanced at him and suddenly raised his eyebrows, "Has your neck grown a bit longer?"
Little Lin Xing floated in front of a mirror and laughed, "It seems so, does it mean every time you activate the divine skill, I grow a little?"
He excitedly floated back and forth in front of the mirror, "Then remember to do it a few times every day to help me grow complete sooner."
Lin Xing frowned and fell silent, wondering what would happen if the other person really did grow complete one day?
While Lin Xing was exploring his new abilities, on the other side, Zhao Wanxi had gradually completed the video editing under Bai Yiyi’s guidance.
Meanwhile, Bai Yiyi was scrolling through the news on social media and saw that the internet was almost entirely discussing the conference about exploring peaceful development between the two worlds.
Since most netizens were oblivious to the Xingxiao Sect, most people associated Da Guangming Temple as the main force behind this conference.
"Da Guangming Temple is amazing; is this the beginning of peace between the two worlds?"
"So many sects from the Mirror World calling for this, it shows that peaceful development is the common wish of people from both worlds."
"Some countries keep moving homes, creating heroes, recruiting strong men; they are too far from a real civilized society."
Watching how the internet was praising Da Guangming Temple, Bai Baiyi snorted and said to Zhao Wanxi beside her, "Good disciple, is it ready? I can’t wait to update it!"
"It’s ready, uploading now."
Eventually, the video Bai Yiyi posted began to spread across the internet at an astonishing rate.
...
Bai Yiyi’s voice came from the video.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have finally reached our last stop in the Mirror World at Da Guangming Mountain."
"Before coming here, I had always heard that under Great Bright Buddha’s rule, people had no worries about food and clothing, life was stable, every household was safe at night, and the roads remained unclaimed."
"With curiosity and longing for this place, we finally arrived at Da Guangming Mountain."
"But after arriving, I learned what a living hell truly is."
"Pay attention to the girl in front of the camera, her name is Dong’er, born at the foot of Da Guangming Mountain and sent to the temple to learn how to worship the Buddha since childhood."
"And worshiping Buddha is a must for every person living on Da Guangming Mountain."
The camera showed Dong’er introducing the duration and compensation for worshiping Buddha.
Following the camera, scene after scene unfolded on Da Guangming Mountain for countless people in the present world to see.
Videos showed men chasing Dong’er to make up for worship time, the entire Chuanfu City looking like a ghost territory, crowds jostling for food, devotees jumping off buildings, and corpses being carried...
And at the end of the video, the dry corpses strewn behind She Shen Cliff shocked everyone.
"Did Great Bright Buddha turn his followers into zombies?"
"Having to worship for so long every day is suffocating to think about."
"Da Guangming Temple is calling for a conference between the two worlds; are they planning to do the same thing in the present world?"
"These are all rumors; the real Da Guangming Mountain is not like this!"
...
Inside a manor in White Eagle Country.
Great Bright Buddha watched the video content and shook his head, "The portrayal of Da Guangming Mountain here is incomplete, hiding many truths."
"All I have done is for the spread of Buddhist law and the betterment of humanity, I never thought they’d spread rumors like these."
Du Kong, watching the last scene of the video, sighed, "My Buddha, people in the present world are like this, they love to secretly film during fights, then edit it into a favorable light to release."
He seemed to recall Hui Ling’s past woes, lamenting, "My Buddha, now everyone from Da Guangming Temple records their actions fully after suffering losses several times."
"Remember to record yourself fully if you go out in the future."
