I Have A Dual World Seal

"Who’s there?"

Yang Caiyi whipped around, and saw a big round-headed, round-faced monk appear not far from the two of them.

"Monk, are your eyes blind? Didn’t you see the Daoist Sect Magical Power all over us?" Li Lingyu picked up another chopstick’s worth of braised meat, speaking carelessly.

"Amitabha Buddha!"

The monk had a fat head and big ears, a smooth white face with no beard, but he didn’t look all that young either.

"In this world, the Buddhist Path and Dao Practice are one family. The Daoist Three Pristine Ones and the Buddhist Sect’s Three Buddhas are all brothers; there’s no need to draw such a clear line between them."

Yang Caiyi blinked, and even Li Lingyu was a bit stunned.

"Are you even a monk?"

"Amitabha Buddha, of course I’m a monk, and a monk of Revolving Wheel Temple at that."

The monk said with a beaming smile, "You two little kids are naturally gifted and refined, just right for cultivating the temple’s Three Lives Reincarnation Truth Great Method."

"From a life in the Daoist Sect, you turn to a life in the Buddhist Sect, and in one lifetime you cultivate Buddhist and Daoist Dual Cultivation. Isn’t that marvelous?"

Yang Caiyi narrowed her eyes, then let out a charming little laugh. "Sounds pretty interesting, but I’ll have to go ask my master first."

Then she tugged on Li Lingyu’s sleeve.

"No matter, no matter. I imagine your master won’t mind. Once you’ve mastered the Great Method, you can go back and report the good news, give your master a surprise. Isn’t that marvelous?"

The monk was laughing, and Li Lingyu was laughing too. "Monk, did you just see me and Caiyi sparring?"

"Amitabha Buddha, those who leave home do not tell lies."

The monk pressed his palms together in salute. "It was precisely because I saw that you two are so gifted and intelligent that this humble monk’s heart was moved with love of talent."

"That’s more like it."

Li Lingyu nodded with a smile. "That was just sparring. If you saw me subduing Demons, I’m afraid you wouldn’t dare have this love-of-talent heart."

The monk’s brows lifted. "What do you mean?"

"I’ll explain with a spear!"

Li Lingyu gave a soft shout, and at the tip of the Pure Yang True Fire Divine Refining Spear in his hand, Pure Yang True Fire roared to life, then thrust straight at the monk.

At the same time, Yang Caiyi, who always plans for defeat before victory, flipped back and retreated without a word, heading straight north toward Tonglin County.

One reason was not to add trouble for Li Lingyu during the fight; the other was to rush back at top speed to report and call for reinforcements.

The monk saw Yang Caiyi fleeing and raised a hand to block her.

But just as he lifted his hand, the spear tip blazing with Pure Yang True Fire was already at his face.

"What?"

The monk was startled; he hadn’t imagined Li Lingyu’s Cultivation would be so profound.

"I truly am fated with Buddha."

Li Lingyu laughed loudly. "So monk, don’t go back. Just stay here in the Central Plains!"

"You know Revolving Wheel Temple?"

"Never heard of it," Li Lingyu said teasingly. "But I do know that Central Plains Buddhism would absolutely never dare snatch a Chunyang Palace disciple!"

When Li Lingyu and Yang Caiyi had fought, Yang Caiyi had used the Upper Yuan Three Treasures Spiritual Light Transformation Scripture—ordinary people might not recognize it.

But what Li Lingyu had used was Chunyang Palace’s Direct Inheritance Technique, the Pure Yang Three Treasures Great Dao Scripture. Pure Yang True Fire flickered faintly; anyone with even a bit of knowledge would never fail to recognize it.

With that being the case, this monk dared show up and try to steal them away; he had to be either a disciple of Western Buddhism or an heir of the Southern Border Temples.

And whichever side he was from, Li Lingyu didn’t care. If you dare make a move on him, you’d better be mentally prepared!

Li Lingyu’s whole body trembled; his long spear quivered. As he unleashed his full power, the spear tip closed in to three feet before the monk’s chest.

The monk’s pupils shrank; clearly he hadn’t expected that the little pretty boy whose Cultivation had looked about the same as that girl’s just now would turn out to be a fierce tiger.

The monk’s right hand lifted, and a golden Primordial Wheel appeared in front of him, blocking the spear’s path.

"Paltry trick!"

"It really is a paltry trick!"

Li Lingyu gave a soft shout. The Refining God Spear twisted and flicked; as his Magical Power surged, he actually knocked the Primordial Wheel off to the side.

"What?" The monk was shocked.

This Primordial Wheel was his Guardian Dao Artifact; not only did it contain exquisite Buddha Power and stand firm in the void, it was also a supreme protective treasure, unmoving like a mountain.

And it had actually been knocked flying by one spear!?

"Knocked flying" was a bit of an exaggeration, but it really was flicked off to the side by Li Lingyu.

The monk leapt back in a rapid retreat, but still failed to evade Li Lingyu’s sweeping long spear. His Protective Buddha Power was pierced through by Pure Yang True Fire, and specks of blood scattered through the air.

"Amitabha Buddha!"

The monk immediately shouted, his hands forming a Seal Technique. The Primordial Wheel beside him swept horizontally toward Li Lingyu’s neck.

After wounding the monk with one move, Li Lingyu didn’t press the advantage. Instead, he reversed his grip to knock aside the Primordial Wheel, standing firm in the void as he teased, "Heh, I thought you were impressive, but you’re only this much. You’re not even as good as that Old Demon I took down last time."

The monk was stunned.

Was he weak?

Of course he wasn’t weak!

As a Dharma Guardian Monk of Southern Border’s Great Tolerance Mountain Revolving Wheel Temple, with eighteen hundred years of Dao Practice, no matter where he went, Master Nado was always one of the top experts.

That was the confidence that let him dare penetrate deep into the Central Plains, even dare abduct disciples of great sects in the Central Plains.

Yet this kid before him—just from listening to him chat with that girl, Nado could tell he definitely hadn’t been cultivating for five years, and his age definitely wasn’t over fifteen.

However...

In terms of both Cultivation and spear art, Nado felt as if he were facing someone of his own level, or even stronger.

"Monk, die!"

Li Lingyu shouted harshly, his long spear weaving afterimages as it turned into a fierce storm of blows, stabbing down at Monk Nado like a torrential downpour.

Nado let out a strange cry, using his inner Buddha Power to dispel the Pure Yang True Fire while waving his hand to summon the golden Primordial Wheel back in front of him, retreating in midair at the same time.

"Please wait, benefactor, this is a misunderstanding! This poor monk was just joking with you earlier; I never made the first move. How did little benefactor take it seriously?"

Nado felt very fortunate that he hadn’t struck first just now, and that it was this hot-tempered little brat who attacked first.

"The Buddhist Path and Dao Practice are one family. Go call your master here so I can explain myself to him."

"Call my master?"

Li Lingyu let out a cold laugh. "If my master were here, I’m afraid you’d die even more miserably!"

Nado gave a shudder, the various Great Powers of Chunyang Palace flashing through his mind, and couldn’t help asking, "Who is your master?"

"He’s your granddaddy!"

Seizing the moment while Monk Nado was distracted, Li Lingyu suddenly closed in. His long spear knocked the Primordial Wheel in front of him off-line, then he switched the spear to his left hand. His right hand darted out to grab the Pure Yang Qi Qiankun Ring, and he smashed it straight toward Monk Nado’s head.

Nado’s gaze narrowed. His hands pinched a seal, and another silver Primordial Wheel appeared, covering him.

"Clang!"

With a resounding crash, even through the Primordial Wheel his whole body was sent flying, and he didn’t waste breath on words—he turned around and bolted.

"Where do you think you’re going!"

Li Lingyu stamped his foot, his figure moving like the wind as he cut in alongside Nado.

"I, your little master, am fated with Buddha, and am a Guardian general of the Buddhist Sect. When I run into a blind monk like you, I have to keep you here to help Buddha clean house!"

Monk Nado: "..."
