Chui Yim left.

He staggered as he went, but nobody dared to block his way.

Inside the huge temple was a Buddha statue with a neutral expression, the right hand in front of the chest and the other holding the vajra sceptre.

There wasn’t the slightest scent of incense, and solemness filled the place as well as silence, since neither Mute, Yuen Tin, nor Yuen Yau spoke a word.

After some time, Yuen Tin laughed loudly, as if he had lost his sanity. “That’s the two-chambered state!? It’s impossible; he must have used some secret method to push his ability to the three-chambered state. Indeed Cloud Palace, no wonder they let him take the journey down the mountains this early!”

Yuen Yau remained silent, but he was staring at his senior brother pitifully. On the other hand, Mute remained expressionless, just like Yuen Tin was a stranger to him.

Mute’s glance was too much for Yuen Tin to take, driving him to shout at the other. “This is so unfair! How could we let an outsider take our sect’s secret style? Why!?”

“Why?” Mute replied calmly with sign language. But his hands stopped in the air, symbolising that it was a question.

“Because he’s the only actual disciple of a Buddhist sect after a thousand years. I’ve read the original Flower Garland Scripture, but the version from Benefactor Chui contains a detailed explanation about Buddhism, Heaven and Earth, as well as reincarnation. With his age, this couldn’t be made up no matter how many books he has read.

“Do you know what that attack he launched is?”

Yuen Tin did not make a noise. The memory of the innocent-looking attack that scraped past his cheeks had his forehead pounding.

“The supreme secret skill of Buddhism – Mount Meru Strike.”

Yuen Yau and Yuen Tin were unable to believe their eyes as Mute continued to sign.

“Mount Meru Strike was a secret style and treasure of the Thousand-Leaves Sect during ancient times. I learned about it from the Diamond Sect ruins; that the Thousand-Leaves Sect’s Ka Yi was so proficient with this style that nobody in the world was able to handle it.

“It’s the peak of Buddhism’s Empty Strike, almost perfect and unaffected by distance or space. The cultivator gathers energy in his palm and exerts shocking force. It gets more powerful as the cultivator’s strength increases. It’s like Mount Meru in a mustard seed, and it contains infinite mighty power.

“Back then, the Diamond Sect wanted to exchange for Mount Meru Strike from the Thousand-Leaves Sect with the Invincible Diamond Body, Universe Divine Style, and Strongman’s Finger, the three treasures of the Diamond Sect, but they were rejected because Mount Meru Strike is too powerful.

“Benefactor Chui most likely has inherited the legacy of the Thousand-Leaves Sect that has been missing from the world for about a thousand years.

“So, do you think that Benefactor Chui who has this legacy would spend so much effort just to get the Invincible Diamond Body?” Mute looked at Yuen Tin and sighed helplessly.


Night fell, the bright moon hanging high up on top of Apex Temple, gracing it with gentle moonlight. There, low chanting could be heard from time to time.

However, Yuen Yau was not in the mood to listen as he looked at his senior brother packing his bag. “Senior Brother, can’t you stay?” he asked with sorrow.

Yuen Tin stopped in his tracks, but it did not take him long to continue packing his bag. “How can I stay when this place can no longer welcome me?”

He tied his bag tightly and put it behind him. “Since Master… Mute was able to attain the legacy of a Buddhist sect and set up Apex Temple, I’m sure that I can find my path too. I have been living for Apex Temple and the abbot for all these years,” He was reminded of the person standing in front of the sunlight, launching an attack that made him clench his fist secretly. “I’m going to live for myself now.”

Hearing how Yuen Tin no longer addressed their master as he did, sorrow took over Yuen Yau, but his senior brother smiled gently and caressed his head like an elder brother, something he had been for the past ten years. “Be at ease, you will always be my junior brother.”


To Chui Yim, Yuen Tin was just a passing cultivator as well as his first challenger. Thus, it did not really bother him. He returned to his room in the Wandering Son’s Lake residence and meditated on the cushion Ping Chi gave him.

There were gains for him today. Mount Meru Strike was way more powerful than he expected because he only acquired a trace of the memory, and because it was his first time using it, he thought it wouldn’t be enough to defeat Yuen Tin.

But the results were better than expected.

However, that didn’t mean that it was more powerful than the Flowing July Flame he created with the Seven-Star Elder’s Heavenly Realm.

Even if Chui Yim gave the technique to the Apex Temple members, none of them would be able to perform it because of the enormous energliph and great mental strength required to gather the heaven and earth energy in his palm. He was only able to do so because Cloud Palace cultivates like cultivators did in the ancient past.

And without the Heaven’s Flame that gave him extraordinary blood energy, energliph, and mental strength, he would have failed to perform the Mount Meru Strike too.

Chui Yim was just taking advantage of the technique rather than performing it. The technique was named after Mount Meru, the Buddhist metaphor “Mount Meru in a mustard seed,” representing the conversion of powerful energliph into extremely powerful techniques.

It was Chui Yim’s first time making use of it, and it was impossible for him to use it in a proper battle.

Because Yuen Tin let Chui Yim go first, it gave him the time to control and sense the changes between Mount Meru and the mustard seed, thus it was successful. He wouldn’t normally have the luxury of nearly twenty seconds to try and perform this legendary skill.

Even so, this experience was a precious one to Chui Yim. He was shocked by the skill of “Mountain in a mustard seed,” and after recalling it, he sensed it might actually be very powerful.

Chui Yim opened his eyes excitedly. If he was able to understand Mount Meru Strike fully, he would have the chance to fuse it with his Flowing July Flame perfectly and evolve them into a very powerful technique!

Yuen Tin? Chui Yim totally forgot about him now that he was in the world of gliphism.
