In the future, Earth becomes a relic of the mythical era.

Chapter 215 Unity of Spirit and Flesh, Creation of Supernatural Powers

Shangyang Palace.

"That is……"

"God Emperor..."

"To rule the world?!"

The three kings looked horrified.

Others might not see it, but as a member of the Wu clan, he is a strong contender for the throne.

How could they not see that Li Rui's palm strike clearly bore some resemblance to the "Divine Emperor's Rule Over the World" technique?

This is because it was the supreme Dharma that the sage comprehended in the Ganye Temple when he was young!
The emperor also showed this painting to members of the royal family.

However, no one has truly grasped its true meaning.

Even the three of them only gleaned a few insights from it; they were far from fully comprehending it and becoming a God-Emperor who could rule the world!

Rumors circulate in the court that only those who can decipher the secrets within and master this diagram will be qualified to inherit the Mandate of Heaven!
"This kid..."

Wu Chengguang gritted his teeth, a fierce glint in his eyes.

Wu Chengxu is similar.

Wu Chengzhe observed coldly; how could he not see what they were thinking?
He knew that his two elder brothers had already decided to kill him.

It seems that in their eyes, Li Rui has become a thorn in their side.

They were determined to get rid of him as quickly as possible.

Then, as if pointing something, he said, "My two imperial brothers, aren't you wondering where he learned that from?"

Their eyes flickered slightly, and a chill ran through them.

How could they not know?

However, in the heat of the moment, he was momentarily careless.

The Divine Emperor's Map of Governing the World was something the Sage comprehended in his youth, and apart from Princess Taiping, who was the Sage's favorite at the time, no one else truly mastered it.

This Li Rui is that person's bloodline, and must have received his teachings from him.

But no matter where he learned it, with the abilities of a sage, once he mastered it, it would inevitably be known to the sage.

Since the sage said nothing, it means that she tacitly approved it.

Perhaps there really is something going on behind the scenes.

If they were to kill him, they would be going against the will of the sage, and what awaits them would surely be an unforeseen fate.

That person back then was also an exceptionally talented individual, and was deeply favored by the emperor.

Unfortunately, he was too impatient and tried to go against the sage's teachings, which led to his unforeseen misfortune.

No matter how talented or ambitious you are, if you dare to go against the sages, you will eventually be reduced to ashes.

Thinking of this, both of them broke out in a cold sweat.

Wu Chengzhe took in the subtle changes in their eyes and smiled slightly: "My two imperial brothers, I think the matter here has been settled. There are still some important matters to be dealt with in the court, so I will take my leave first."

After saying this, he bowed and turned to go downstairs.

Wu Chengguang and Wu Chengxu watched him leave.

The former's eyes flickered: "When did the fifteenth prince become so kind?"

Wu Chengxu sneered, "He's kind? Heh heh."

Throughout the court and among the common people, everyone knows that among the three princes, he and the ninth prince are the most powerful.

If there are no major mistakes, the future crown prince position will definitely be filled by one of them.

The fifteenth prince had no chance at all.

Unless something changes.

This variable did not exist in the past.

But after today...

The fifteenth prince was probably the happiest one at this moment.

They probably hope that Li Rui will cause trouble; the bigger the trouble, the more opportunities he will have.

This is an attempt to watch the tigers fight from afar, to see himself and Lao Jiu fight to the death, so that he can reap the benefits.

The warning I gave earlier was just because I was afraid they would actually kill Li Rui.

It's clear as it is.

But this is an open conspiracy.

They really can't kill that kid Li Rui.

Their struggle is unlikely to end.

Lao Jiu may seem to be hot-tempered, impulsive, and easily angered, but he is actually quite shrewd and capable of seeing things clearly.

Wu Chengxu's eyes darted around, thinking about how to provoke the Ninth Prince's temper and get him to deliver a painful blow to the Fifteenth Prince, that insidious viper.

……

Southern government office.

Song Shenxi's face was flushed, as if he had just drunk fine wine.

"Gentlemen, His Highness Prince Jing is only seventeen years old, yet he is so valiant, fighting a bloody battle against the eunuchs and surviving! You should all congratulate him!"

The officials looked at each other in silence.

No one expected this outcome.

The rumored weak and incompetent Prince Jing actually possesses such courage, spirit, and ability?
As high-ranking officials in the court, they had much more to think about.

How did someone who was neglected and even forbidden from learning literature and martial arts acquire such skills?
Is it possible...

They came up with a possible, unbelievable, yet the only explanation.

If it weren't for the sage secretly indulging him, or even intentionally arranging it, how could this be possible?

Besides this sage, who else could impart all his skills to Prince Jing under the court's prohibition?
Think back to King Jing's last strike just now. He clearly understood Buddhist principles and had a profound understanding of Buddhism, which is why he could have delivered that strike.

If it weren't for the transmission from the saint who is said to be the reincarnation of Maitreya, how could a seventeen-year-old child have such profound Buddha-nature?
After a while, someone said, "Grand Secretary Song, the guards on both sides have reported that the Mengjin River workers have erected a stone tablet and beaten the Dengwen Drum to accuse the Shence Army of massacring civilians. This has been going on for three days. Our Censorate has accepted the case and will submit it to the court tomorrow!"

"That's how it should be."

"If this is true, the people should be given justice!"

"How can we tolerate such a horrifying thing?"

The ministers and officials from various departments all spoke up.

Song Shenxi was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

……

In front of the city gate.

Seeing Tian Quancao slammed into the ground and turned into a pile of minced meat, Xie Lingxin's tense nerves finally relaxed.

Thoughts flashed through.

【Buddha's Kingdom in Your Hand: 0.01/100 (Wild Wilderness Grade)】 Wilderness Grade!
This is neither simply martial arts nor simply a form of mental manipulation.

The Buddha sits in the Bodhimanda, and I gain royal power!
The temple is one's own mind; royal power is the wondrous Dharma!
The protective power of the Great Netherworld Bell, imparted by the monk Ruman, allowed him to draw inferences from similar cases and comprehend some of the mysteries in the Great Cloud Sutra.

The phrase "The mind is the Dharma King, and the mind becomes Buddha" finally led him to realize the Zen-martial arts unity of the mind-king ruling the Buddha kingdom!

The unity of Zen and martial arts, or, in the Federation's terms, the unity of spirit and body.

Mind and body in oneness!

The physical body is as solid as Mount Sumeru, and the blood and energy are as boundless as the ocean.

The mind is as infinite as the universe, and thoughts are as boundless as paradise.

This is his palm-sized Buddhist kingdom!
The palm of your hand is the Buddha's Pure Land, and everything you see is a sacred place.

His entire body spans hundreds of feet, forming his "dojo," a place controlled by his mind and an inexhaustible source of his physical power!

Xie Lingxin felt that this palm strike had already captured some of the "Vajra Body of the Tathagata" mentioned in the Great Cloud Sutra.

The Tathagata's Vajra body can blow Mount Sumeru apart with his breath, can hold the four great oceans in a single pore, can sever the earth as if it were a turning wheel, and can hold the three thousand great worlds in the palm of his hand!
Of course, this is just a description of the mood or atmosphere.

He couldn't imagine whether such a power could actually exist in this world...

But he knew that the "Buddha Kingdom in the Palm of His Hand" he had come to understand, which was a unity of spirit and body, could no longer be simply described as martial arts or magic.

Rather... supernatural powers!
He actually created supernatural powers?
It seems that I've never heard of it in the federal government either.

The existence of supernatural powers is either obtained from legendary realms or transplanted through the Federation's technology.

The power of creation may exist, but it is extremely rare, so rare that it has almost never been passed down.

"Hehe, hehe..."

Xie Lingxin gave a blank laugh, and then, to everyone's astonishment, she lay down with a thud.

"Your Highness!"

Su Zhen didn't care about the messy thoughts of others; she only cared about His Highness's safety.

Upon seeing this, she immediately ran over crying.

Cui Chenglin and Zhang Zhihong also walked quickly.

Bai Juyi said to Ru Man, "Teacher Ru Man, Your Highness..."

Ru Man shook his head and said, "There is no need to worry. His Highness was injured first and then overexerted himself, resulting in deficiency of both qi and blood and damage to his mind. He is only unconscious for a while. He will recover after a few days of rest."

In fact, this kind of injury is extremely serious for an average person.

Nine times out of ten, it will damage the foundation.

However, given King Jing's status, the use of precious medicine, and the presence of a master of innate abilities to help him recover, there is little to worry about.

"A talent beyond compare, rarely seen in the world..."

Ru Man looked at Xie Lingxin lying on the ground, her eyes filled with astonishment.

Yet, a hint of worry lingered in his eyes.

He had never seen such talent in his life, though he had heard of it before.

There was only one and a half people...

That half-person is the sage of today.

As for that "one person"...

There was only that General Tian Ce from back then!

These kinds of people, whichever one they are, will inevitably bring about a great upheaval after their birth, either a great struggle or a great change!
"Bah!"

"You eunuch lackey!"

Just then, an angry shout suddenly rang out.

A group of scholars dressed in Confucian robes emerged from the crowd.

Everyone was filled with excitement.

Pointing at the Shence Army soldiers who were completely disoriented, he cursed, "Under the Emperor's feet, in the capital region, how dare you act so presumptuously!"

"Prince Jing is of imperial blood and was personally appointed by the emperor. How dare you harm him? Are you plotting a rebellion?!"

"With us here, you lackeys will not succeed!"

"If you want to harm King Jing, you'll have to step over us first!"

"Fellow students of the Imperial Academy, today the eunuchs are in power; it is the time for us to serve our country!"

The leader waved his sleeve, seemingly poised to charge into the Shence Army.

"..."

Where did this group of scholars come from?
Student of the Imperial Academy?

Everything had already settled down, and now they're only just popping up...

Funny?
Some people couldn't help but laugh, while others covered their faces, unable to bear to look.

The soldiers of the Divine Strategy Army were even more bewildered.

What? The commander is already a pulp, and you still want to beat us?

Bai Juyi shook his head and walked over: "I am Bai Juyi, students, please calm down."

Bai Juyi? The Hermit of Xiangshan?!
The King of Poetry?!
If it were anyone else, these students would absolutely ignore it.

But this one is someone they can't help but admire.

"Greetings, sir!"

People bowed in reverence, as if they were seeing an idol.

Bai Juyi nodded and said to the Shence Army soldiers, "Why don't you disperse? Today's matter will be decided in the court. Since you have no intention of rebelling, you should return to your camps and await further instructions."

The Shence Army soldiers had already lost their leader, so no one dared to object upon hearing this.

At this point, what else can they do but pray that those big shots will let those who follow orders go?

We can't really go against them, can we?

So they all left dejectedly and with great anxiety.

The students looked at each other in bewilderment.

We are all ready to fight the Shence Army to the death, even if it means bloodshed!
Is this the result?

We must fight against the eunuch faction! We must remonstrate with the country with our lives! We must sacrifice ourselves for righteousness!
……

Leaving aside the farce caused by the Imperial College student who inexplicably appeared at the last minute.

Beneath the gates of the capital, a fierce battle brought Prince Jing, Li Rui, into the view of many.

They forced their way in with an extremely barbaric and shocking manner.

King Jing retreated alone from the Divine Strategy!

It spread like wildfire throughout the capital city.

The news quickly threw the entire community into turmoil...
