CHAPTER 516: CHAPTER 300: ENLIGHTENMENT UNDER THE VAJRA TREASURE TREE (PART 2)

Then, Yu Gen Sheng spoke calmly again, "Moreover, it is not certain that the Newborn Path lacks Ancestor Masters who have reached the Seventh Realm; some might still be in the world. For instance, the Past Tathagata, the previous generation’s Yuqing, might someday come out to stretch their muscles and meet old friends like Old Immortal Helian."

Helian Yunji turned his head, looking at this withered old man with fewer than a hundred hairs on his head. This man was hiding needles in soft speech, saying both soft and hard words at once.

The key was, Yu Gen Sheng was neither servile nor overbearing, and what he said was true.

Helian Yunji’s heart chilled; he had heard rumors of the Ancestor Masters of the Newborn Path. No one knew if they were truly dead.

"During the Great Exploration Period, internal conflicts are strictly forbidden. If anyone dares target people from their own camp, it wouldn’t be excessive to retaliate however necessary. Friend, take a look at this Memory Crystal; your descendant is truly reckless..." Yu Gen Sheng handed him a glowing crystal stone.

Helian Yunji was taken aback. The counterpart had recorded the entire encounter, prepared for this.

He exhaled his frustration internally; this matter... sigh.

...

In the Immortal Tomb Area, no one expected that events would conclude in this manner. The Grandmaster from the Helian Family personally arrived, yet Qin Ming emerged unscathed.

A brewing storm seemed about to crash down, yet suddenly it dissipated.

After several Grandmasters departed, people finally spoke freely.

Many looked at Qin Ming with a peculiar gaze; this young man’s status on the Newborn Road was indeed not low!

"The Tathagata Sect, Six Imperial, Yin Yang Temple, and Five Elements Palace Elders all nodded at him, showing their stance, and they truly valued him."

The most crucial was that Lu Zizai personally arrived, making two Grandmasters bow their heads.

Yao Ruoxian felt like she missed a chance to gain favor and mumbled to herself, "I should have directly given him the Thunder Emperor Bird earlier."

Pei Shuyan was deeply surprised. In their view, Qin Ming’s life was not in danger, but today, he would likely face severe reproach and ’education’ from the Helian family.

Jiang Ran was evaluating what the situation would be if she violently beat Helian ZhaoYu.

Cui He murmured, "Ha, being too rigid leads to breakage; this was during the Great Exploration period. Without external enemies, it’s fine, but otherwise, during chaos, anything could happen."

Upon hearing the news, Helian ZhaoYu stood up with a start. This time, he couldn’t maintain a calm expression anymore; his grandfather, a Grandmaster, was forced to bow to others.

His face turned pale; everything was because of him.

Wei Cheng and Luo Jingxiao were stunned as well. The development trajectory far exceeded their expectations.

"Is it possible to arrange a fair battle? I want to ’knead’ him personally!" The black-clothed youth Wei Cheng said.

"An internal consumption-style duel, probably not." Luo Jingxiao shook his head, wishing he could personally enter the fray.

...

The great tomb was like a mountain.

Qin Ming was climbing the mountain, also ascending the tomb.

Here, life was abundant; it didn’t seem like the territory of the dead. The great tomb was filled with a dazzling glow.

"Did the tomb master eat too well during their life, or is there something eerie happening after death?" Qin Ming thought that the whole tomb was covered with medicinal herbs because there was an excessive accumulation of Spiritual Material here.

"Forget it, I better not overthink it. I’ll just consider this place a fertile herb garden." Qin Ming tried not to associate the Spiritual Medicines with corpses, blood, and flesh.

His goal was clear, the scriptures on the stone wall atop the mountain, and that Vajra Tree.

The soil of the great tomb was surprisingly radiant. Holding a handful of it, the soil particles were slightly moist and glossy, quite extraordinary.

At the top of the tomb, the Vajra Tree was not high, just about 16 feet, and its trunk was robust like a coiling dragon, with old bark cracking open like scales. From leaves to branches, it was golden in color.

On the Vajra Treasure Tree hung dozens of fist-sized Vajra Fruits.

The entire mountaintop glowed golden because of this tree, with a gentle immortal fog swirling around.

This didn’t look like a tomb top; it was more like a piece of Pure Land.

And the so-called stone wall in front of him was likely a gravestone that fell and shattered onto the tomb top.

The characters on the stone wall shone brilliantly. Each stroke had the Tao Rhythm, displaying a sense of ancient timelessness. They seemed to be a manifestation of some True Scripture.

Qin Ming pondered whether this was some kind of True Meaning emanating from within the tomb, manifesting externally?

If this were so, the tomb master was extremely formidable during their life. After their death, this scripture could still manifest itself, indicating it might be the remnant of their greatest achievement in life.

Qin Ming tried to approach the Vajra Treasure Tree. It emitted golden light, preventing anyone from nearing, like having an immortal resonance, hard to shake, and impossible to pick the fruits.

He was not in a hurry and instead sat cross-legged beneath the tree, facing the stone wall, preparing to seriously comprehend.

"Vajra represents immortality, indestructibility, and is also viewed as a power that protects the path."

Qin Ming mused if this Vajra Treasure Tree was a representation of the tomb master’s cultivation technique, then it could also indicate a connection with the Newborn Road, a similar Method.

He didn’t immediately try to resonate emotionally but first decided to comprehend it on his own, worrying he might be overwhelmed and suffer a severe headache, possibly fainting.

Qin Ming had experience with this; he had suffered several tragic incidents before, where his mind nearly turned to mush.

"Once I understand it thoroughly, I’ll attempt a brief resonance; it could alleviate a lot of pressure from me."

In fact, if the scripture were complete, he wouldn’t need to resonate at all.

After reading through the Scripture Meaning, Qin Ming retreated slightly, not engaging deeply to avoid unconsciously immersing himself and ’falling for it.’

"It is certainly difficult."

He frowned, meticulously studying it several times, repeatedly contemplating. He found this Scripture Meaning extremely profound.

At every crucial juncture, it seemed the Scripture was missing something vital.

Qin Ming pondered intensely, closing his eyes, using his heart to perceive the True Scripture. By relying on his original instinctual response, he realized this Scripture Meaning was significantly important to him.
