Zhang Chi Hang smoothly swap the willow branch, after which crystal, transparent and shining rains fell down on the dark cloud covering the plain. The rain was truly magical. The sky was originally dark, and only after occasional thunder could we see the raindrops in the sky. But although the raindrops that Zhang Chi Hang brushed out were small, they emitted a glow and instantly illuminated the pitch-black sky. As the rain fell on the dark cloud, grey smoke began to rise from them, and the dark cloud shivered each time a raindrop fell on it. It seemed like someone was screaming in the thunder. I listened carefully and heard voices like "South Sea Divine Technique" "Where does the Merit Water come from?" The spinning cup seemed to have a suction force that sucked in all the smoke.
Just in a while, the dark cloud violently shook as a golden light pierced through the sky and came closer and closer. It grew bigger and bigger as it flew and rushed straight towards Zhang Chi Hang. Suddenly, Zhang Chi Hang shook his right hand, and two rays of silver light struck on the golden light. The golden light was extremely fast, and rushed straight over, but after being twisted by the silver light, the golden light seemed to be drunk, as it coiled and swayed, then landed on the ground and stopped moving before Zhang Chi Hang could even get close to it. Liu Shuai and I lowered our heads and looked at each other. The two silver lights were actually silver-white round pieces, but we didn't know what they were. The shape looked familiar, but I could not recall where I saw it before. Seeing how aggressive these people were fighting, I could not just pick them up to examine them.
Then, with another brush from Zhang Chi Hang, the raindrops became denser, and the smoke became heavier as well, as though they were being sucked into a glass. After a while, the black clouds were gradually washed clean by the rain, and the lightning disappeared; the wind and rain stopped, and the plane that was trapped in the rain also calmed down, no longer bumping.
This crisis had been solved.
"It's really like him illuminating the five skandhas that are all empty and saving all the sufferings." I couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
I could clearly see the smile on Zhang Chi Hang's lips. He immediately retracted his hand, and then the glass powder and water vapor dispersed. The glass powder returned back to a glass, and the water vapor returned back into it, becoming a glass of water in peace. Only the glass with the black mist in it remained floating in the air. However, the black mist in the glass seemed to have come to life as it moved around and around, but it was still unable to break through the glass.
"Oh God, that's amazing!" Liu Shuai was so excited that his mouth was full of saliva, "I just saw the power of Clear Willow Branch and Clear Glass Kalasa. This life of mine is worth it!"
"Do you see the sunset at dusk like your lifetime that passed?" I teased Liu Shuai. This guy always borrowed the lines of a drama"Never Expected".
"Stop messing around," Liu Shuai ignored me and continued to flatter Zhang Chi Hang with a smile, which made Zhang Quan so angry that he wanted to blow his beard, but only after a while did he realize that his did not have any beard or hair at all, same as Liu Shuai, thus he could simply stare at this disappointing disciple of his previous life. Liu Shuai said, "Master, no, Bodhisattva, whoops, no, your all Mighty, your mana is so strong! What a wonderful Technique of Restoration! I have heard of people who can change the heavens and earth with great mana, but only you can perform a Tao Technique that can restore a broken mirror and shattered glass to its perfect state so flawlessly. I have never seen anyone else with such cultivation. "
Liu Shuai gave his praise from entirely from his heart, but he did not notice the change of Zhang Quan's expression at all. When I was about to remind Liu Shuai that such a praise for only one person would inevitably cause Zhang Quan to have a knot in his heart, I didn't expect that when Liu Shuai, as he saw Zhang Chi Hang's glass, continued speaking with envy and pity, "but I never expect that your Clear Glass Kalas is a glass. I used to think…"
"Didn't your master teach you not to be bogged down by external items?" Zhang Chi Hang snorted. The glass quickly spun, and in an instant, it turned into a white jade kalasa, exactly like the bottle in the temple that the Bodhisattva was holding.
"Kid, you still have a lot to learn!" Zhang Quan could not hold it in anymore, but it was not good for him to show off his own mana in front of Zhang Chi Hang, so he could only say snappily, "there are far more than three thousands divine techniques in this world. How could you say something like that before you haven't seen everything yet? How much skill have you learned? And how many of them do you know you need to learn? "
"Me learn? From whom? My father abandoned me since I was young. I have never seen my master who only dares to teach me down in dreams, and I only have that dream once every few years, who do you think I can learn from? " Liu Shuai suddenly shouted back, causing Zhang Quan's face to go red and purple.
After Liu Shuai finished speaking, he seemed to be somewhat regretful and had a guilty expression. However, since he had already said it, he could not apologize immediately, thus he could only continue like this, and the circumstance turned somewhat embarrassing instantly.
Obviously, Zhang Chi Hang did not want to care about this unreasonable thing. He waved his hand and grasped the Clear Glass Kalas in his hand, then proposed a suggestion, "why don't we take a look at this demon beast's background? It might be useful."
Only then did I react and I couldn't help but ask, "Pardon me? I thought that all of you could figure it out by calculation with just your fingers. Why do you still need to ask? "
Zhang Chi Hang looked at me in confusion. "What do you mean to figure it out by calculation with fingers?"
I looked at Zhang Chi Hang as if he was an alien. "Books like Journey to the West say that the Bodhisattva could know everything in the world once he opens his wisdom eyes?"
Zhang Chi Hang and Zhang Quan looked at each other, then suddenly laughed out loud, "these juniors have been deeply misled by these legends."
Seeing that I didn't understand, Zhang Chi Hang turned to me and smiled, "If a Bodhisattva could know everything about the past and future with his divine ability, then why are there so many Bodhisattvas or Immortals in Journey to the West learning nothing about their rides or disciple boys getting lost in the mortal world?"
"This... Perhaps they actually know about it, but for the sake of Buddha's great literature-passing business, and the make sure the completeness of eighty-one times obstacles, they pretended not to know." I replied, but I also felt that this argument was untenable and that my voice was growing softer and softer.
"Hahahaha!" This time, it was Zhang Quan's turn to laugh, "Monkey King also learned the seventy-two transformation technique and has followed Master Xuputi for many years. If the Bodhisattvas and Immortals really have that kind of ability but pretend not to know, how could Monkey King let these owners of the rides off so easily? It's like when your friends know that you're checking your Moments every day, and they post their wedding plans for straight five days on Moments, but you pretend to be deaf and not say hello. What would your friends think of you? "
"I think they will break off all relations with me." I thought about it.
"Exactly. The same is true for divine abilities. "Zhang Chi Hang nodded his head, "the Divine Vision and Divine Ear Technique truly exist, but their effects are different. It's hard troublesome to explain. You only need to know that legends and divine abilities are different things. The so-called divine abilities in legends are are not real divine abilities, but just borrowing the name."
"Yeah," Zhang Quan agreed, then said seriously, "Speaking of divine abilities, this demon is really able. I don't know where he got this Immortal Tying Rope, if it was from the old guy Ju Liu Sun, then I am going to ran over to his door and scolded him for his face."
Liu Shuai also felt that what he had just said was a little too excessive. After all, in this life Zhang Quan was no longer related to him, so he said, "he's right. Let's see what kind of demon it is. If it's Lan Ruo, then we will coerce her to save Zhou Yuan."
