Chapter 348 Golden Body of Merit

Chapter 348 Golden Body of Merit
Xie Lingxin picked up the bone and examined it carefully.

That's clearly a rib!
Human ribs!

And it's gold.

A golden rib...

"Where did it come from?"

Xie Lingxin grabbed Wangcai by the scruff of its neck and lifted it up.

Wangcai paddled around, letting out a loud "Aww~"

It wasn't me! It was Little Pig!
piggy?

Xie Lingxin looked to the other side.

That pink little round pig has been inseparable from Wangcai ever since he brought it back.

He later contacted Ye Mengxiong.

Ye Mengxiong said that the little pig suddenly disappeared, and when he came over to take it away, the little pig refused to leave.

After several attempts, the piglet always managed to walk out of the old compound and then run back on its own.

Ye Mengxiong had no idea how it got there.

This pig is clearly not an ordinary pig.

In the end, all we could do was leave it there.

He was also squatting on the side at that moment.

Seemingly sensing his gaze, it turned its non-existent neck.

Two excessively round eyes stared blankly at him.

It was filled with utterly naive stupidity.

This made Xie Lingxin give up any idea of talking to it.

"What were you trying to do with that bone in your mouth?"

A dangerous glint appeared in Xie Lingxin's eyes.

These are human bones.

If he finds out that this guy likes to eat this stuff, then he'll have to be careful.

Wangcai's hair stood on end, and he started howling wildly.

"Ouch!"

Master! This bone possesses extremely profound merit!
This stuff is a great tonic for the gods!
"Ow~"

I really didn't want to eat it! I just wanted to secretly absorb the merit inside!

"Merit?"

Xie Lingxin looked at the bone in her hand again.

Why can't he feel it?

It is said that after the twelfth heaven, one connects heaven and earth, and cultivation will generate calamity energy, which needs to be dispelled by good deeds and merits.

He had already experienced the calamity, but what about the merit?

I've never seen it before.

Could it be that I've never done a good deed?

Can't you?
What is merit?

There's someone right in front of you who can see merit; just ask them directly.

"Ow~"

Master, merit is invisible; unless one has the divine eye, only we gods can see it.

"Sky Eye?"

"Ow..."

It's like... having divine eyes, I can't really explain it.

Master, do you know Erlang Shen? He was born with a divine eye, a heavenly eye.

However, I don't know if it's true or not, since I've never seen it, I've only heard the legends.

Still like this?

Wouldn't it be difficult to know one's own merits?
Xie Lingxin muttered to herself.

Curious, he asked, "Do I have any merit on me?"

"Ouch~!"

Of course! How many lives has Master saved? Not to mention the incident at Tonggu Bay, not long ago when those hungry ghosts roamed the West District, how many people would have died if it weren't for you, Master?

Master, you have done a great service just for these two times!

Xie Lingxin looked at its exaggerated expression and asked with great skepticism, "Really?"

"Woo..."

There's a tiny bit of it...

Wangcai ultimately dared not deceive him.

"Ow~"

Merit is hard to come by; the master's merit is probably...

Wangcai stretched out its two paws, compared them, and estimated they were about an inch long. Then, thinking they were a bit too big, it shrank them a little.
It's only a little over half an inch left.

"Ow~"

That's about it!

"Half an inch?"

Xie Ling thought to himself, "Can merit be measured?"

"Ow~"

Of course! In the eyes of our gods, merit is a ray of golden light.

The more merit you accumulate, the more golden light you will receive. I once saw a deity who possessed nearly ten feet of golden light from his merit!

Those are beings who can almost escape the constraints of the mortal world, be listed in the register of immortals and become true gods!

Unfortunately, he ultimately succumbed to the heavenly tribulation! Alas…

As Wangcai spoke, a hint of fear appeared in his eyes.

Xie Lingxin satisfied her curiosity and didn't want to dredge up its "sad past," so she didn't ask any further questions.

He then shook the golden bone in his hand: "So this kind of merit is a lot?"

"Ow~"

Wangcai's eyes lit up.

This one bone alone possesses three feet of golden light of merit!

I can't even imagine what kind of being this person was in life! Even that god couldn't compare to him!
It must be a saint in the world!
so smart?

Xie Lingxin's doubts deepened.

"Where did it come from?"

Wangcai howled at the little pig a few times.

The little pig grunted a few times.

It only reacts to Wangcai, and only Wangcai can communicate with it.

"Ow~"

The owner said it was given to it by an old man, who then dug it out of the ground.

"What?"

Xie Lingxin's eyes widened: "The old man gave it to you? And you dug it yourself? You're asking where you dug it? Are there any more?"

The contradictory statement made him feel that something was amiss.

"Ow!"

The dog and the pig howled at each other for a while longer.

"Ow~"

Master, it's right by the wall outside!

Wangcai said, sounding quite annoyed.

I was so blinded by this bone that I completely forgot where this stupid pig came from!

I almost missed the remains of that "saint" who had accumulated merit!

Xie Lingxin put Wangcai down, and it squealed at the piglet.

The little pig kicked its four short legs and scurried off. Xie Lingxin and Wangcai quickly chased after it.

Once outside, the pig turned a corner and stopped in the grass by a wall.

This is right under the wall of his little villa.

There are human bones here?
"Wangcai, get to work."

"Ow~"

Without hesitation, Wangcai jumped in, its four paws flying, splashing dirt everywhere.

Not long after, they dug out a large pit several meters deep.

A golden light appeared in the pit, as if gold had been unearthed.

Sure enough, there was a golden skull!
The golden skull still maintained a seated posture with its five hearts facing the sky.

Even though it had become a skeleton, Xie Lingxin could still feel a sense of compassion from it.

With a thought, Xie Ling took out the broken tile.

He always felt that the bone had an extraordinary origin.

Even though Wangcai said that the golden light of merit could not be seen by the heavenly eye or by the gods, he still felt it was best to be cautious.

"Ask it what the old man meant by giving it to it? What old man?"

"Prosperous wealth?"

He called out a few times and found that Wangcai was staring wide-eyed at the golden skeleton.

I poked it with my toe until it came to its senses.

"Awoooooo~~!"

Wangcai let out an excited howl.

Master! Your merit is immeasurable! Your merit is immeasurable! This is truly immeasurable merit!
These remains were actually formed entirely from accumulated merit!

Merit has solidified into substance! This is a golden body of merit!

"A golden statue of merit?"

"Awooo~!"

This is a wonderful method of Buddhism! To forge a golden body through merit!
Such merit, if placed in the legendary realm, would be at least equivalent to that of an Arhat!
Such merit... this is what it means to attain Buddhahood on the spot!
It danced with excitement.

Arhat?

Wangcai howled at the little pig again.

"Ow~"

Master, it says he's an old bald man, all dry and thin, he definitely won't taste good.

"..."

This sounds a bit strange, considering the little pig's round and adorable appearance, and the fact that it's inseparable from Wangcai.

I don't plan to pursue this for the time being.

Think about what it said.

Old bald guy?
Dry and thin?

Is he really a monk?

Who is it?

Xie Lingxin was completely baffled and decided to first make proper arrangements for the skeleton.

I intended to put it in a brocade pouch, but it turned out that it was impossible to fit anything in.

His mental power was so strong that he couldn't move the skeleton at all, and couldn't budge it even a fraction of a second!
"Sigh~"

So evil?

With his current mental power, he can move things weighing hundreds of kilograms even if he tries to move objects remotely.

"Ow~"

Master, your merits are intangible, yet they carry an unbearable weight.

Especially these remains, which have immeasurable merit, can be condensed into a golden body, making them a true Arhat!

Let alone mental strength, even physical strength cannot move it if the heart is not sincere.

Master, why don't you try praying to him?
Worship him?

Xie Lingxin looked at the golden bones that were entirely golden, and she didn't find them repulsive.

As Wangcai said, these remains must have done countless good deeds and accumulated a great deal of merit during their lifetime.

It is appropriate to offer a prayer.

He then sincerely bowed down before the remains.

“Master, I don’t know who you are, but if you have a spirit, please believe me. I have no intention of offending you.”

"It would be even better if you could appear in my dream and tell me who you are,"

"With your merits, you should be receiving offerings from the world, not being left to wander here."

Ok?
As Xie Lingxin bowed, she suddenly sensed something and her golden bones underwent some changes.

He got up, tried reaching out, and gently touched it...

It can really move now?

Xie Lingxin looked around, hoping to find something to wrap the remains, but she couldn't find anything suitable.

They simply took out the Buddha's robe and wrapped the remains in it.

With a slight exertion, the bones that were as heavy as mountains just moments before were now lifted up with effortless ease.

Wow, amazing!

He wrapped the golden bones in the Buddha's robe and returned home.

After thinking about it, I placed it against the wall at the back of the living room.

No one comes here, and Wangcai is guarding the yard, so it doesn't really matter where he puts him.

After instructing Wangcai to guard the house, he made a phone call and arranged to meet Nian Youyou.

The Jin family scions have recently been leaving Far East Star one after another.

Only about ten people remained, including Nian Youyou.

I heard that she obtained the Water and Fire Elixir Cauldron and became so engrossed in it that she couldn't bear to leave.

I thought at most I would have to pay a price, but in the end I was disappointed.

Nian Youyou has no idea how to refine the Spirit Flying Powder.

According to her, Lingfei Powder is extremely difficult to refine, requiring spiritual power to do so, meaning only a titled spiritual master could possibly do it.

She is far from qualified.

However, he was told that he could ask his family for help, but it would probably come at a price.

Xie Lingxin was naturally happy to agree.

This is something he will need for his future cultivation, and it will be worth it even if it costs him more.

……

"Little friend..."

"Thank you, my friend..."

That night.

While Xie Lingxin was meditating, she suddenly heard a faint calling.

When he opened his eyes, he saw no one.

This is very wrong.

Even if Wangcai were here, when he was cultivating himself, ordinary people would not be able to get close to him.
