Chapter 1841 Serene Lotus Buddhist Veil

Lin Mu had used the Calming Heart sutra for years now and had become familiar with the Buddhist Aura. And yet, this was his first time truly experiencing the Buddhist energies.

They felt very familiar to him and were able to flow in his body with ease. It was as if this was their home in the first place and made it easier for him to guide them to the injured spots.

'He truly is made for the Buddhist path…' Monk Hushu couldn't help but think after seeing the flow of Buddhist energies in Lin Mu's body first hand.

~SHUA~

The golden Buddhist energies entered through Monk Hushu's arms and traveled into Lin Mu's chest in two streams. One of the streams went up into his neck and then into his head, while the other stream went down.

The second stream split into two, passing through his shoulders and into his arms all the way to the tip of his fingers before circling back to the chest.

It then flowed down along his spine and healed the smaller injuries that were present along it. Of course the injuries didn't include the more severe ones and they didn't heal from mere Buddhist energy.

Still, Lin Mu observed it all in detail hoping to learn something from it.

"Crown Princess Shang, now." Monk Hushu called out.

"Yes!" The Crown Princess placed her palms on Lin Mu's back, mirroring Monk Hushu.

~HUALA~

A strong yet refreshing energy flowed into Lin Mu's back through the Crown Princess's hands. Unlike the Buddhist energies, the wood immortal qi mixed with Wood Dao Traces was invigorating.

The green energy from Crown Princess Shang met with the golden Buddhist energy of Monk Hushu, bringing forth a profound change.

~HUM~

"Serene Lotus Buddhist Veil~" Monk Hushu chanted lightly, triggering the technique.

Since he didn't haven tho components of the technique, he was relying on Crown Princess Shang to help him out.

'This will lower efficiency, but it will have to do for now.' Monk Hushu thought to himself, as his energy stores started to rapidly drain.

It was clear that this wasn't a technique one could use causally. Even for the Monk, it was a difficult technique that he had barely managed to learn in the past.

This understanding was that of just the theoretical part as he had no proficiency with the Wood Element and the Wood Dao. But with how effective the Serene Lotus Buddhist Veil was as a healing technique, he had been taught by his master regardless.

Crown Princess Shang who was supplying a part of the energy also got to see the profoundity of the technique and how it could still operate despite her not being of the Buddhist path.

'This is new… Father will be interested in learning something like this.' Crown Princess Shang thought while trying to observe everything in detail.

Her immortal sense had also entered Lin Mu's body and was observing the merger of the two energies.

First the energies mirrored each other and formed a circuit in Lin Mu's body, looking quite a bit like a qi circuit but a lot simpler.

Once this qi circuit was completed, a greenish gold sheen appeared all over Lin Mu's body.

~Amithabha~

A Buddhist chant was heard at that moment, arousing surprise from everyone.

"What was that?" Commander Dui stood up from his chair, feeling a profound presence.

Crown Prince Feng Shun also narrowed his eyes, feeling the same.

'Is this how the Serene Lotus Buddhist Veil is supposed to be?' he wondered, unaware that even Monk Hushu was astounded at this moment.

The man looked to be focused on the outside, but internally he was stunned.

'How is this possible? Tune of the Buddhist Dao?' Monk Hushu had heard this several times before in his time at the monastery.

But every time he had heard it, the source had been a great monk that had been undergoing an enlightenment or obtaining an epiphany.

He himself had never had the chance to do the same and could only wonder what was happening.

But in the next second he heard Lin Mu speak.

"He's… Chanting?" Monk Hushu's eyes went wide, his neutral expression breaking.

Lin Mu's face had become extremely calm at that point and an ascetics grace exuded from him.

"This…" Crown Prince Feng Shun took a step back, feeling strange. "It's affecting me?" he could feel a wave of calmness filling him.

While he considered himself a mentally strong man, he still had his set of anxieties and stressful thoughts. And yet, now they were being washed away by the aura that was coming from Lin Mu.

The chanting that could be heard from his mouth was hard to describe and understand. It was esoteric and lost to time, leaving even Monk Hushu at a loss for words.

"What Daoist Mu Lin chanting, Monk Hushu?" Daoist Chu couldn't help but ask.

He too was being influenced and was confused at it. For a technique to affect all of their thoughts like that, it was not a simple thing.

They were lucky that it wasn't a harmful one, but if it could be turned into that, things would be terrifying for them. After all, there were no defenses being triggered for them and the chanting was bypassing all of them.

'No… rather than bypassing, our defenses don't consider it as an attack at all… they're actually inviting it in!' Crown Prince Feng Shun understood.

Crown Princess Shang was also going her own though process, finding her mind getting calmer. Her thoughts become a lot more detailed, and the observations that she was making in Lin Mu's body also became clearer.

'I haven't felt like this in a long time,' Crown Princess Shang reckoned.

~HONG~

But this was merely the start, as a transformation took place.

The greenish gold glow that was surrounding Lin Mu got stronger, while the mixture of wood and Buddhist energies flowed to form a disc under Lin Mu.

~SHUA~

It lifted Lin Mu's body into the air while his air floated around gently.

Monk Hushu couldn't believe his eyes as his hands separated from Lin Mu. At first he thought that the technique would fail, but much to his surprise the link was still working.

Buddhist energies were flowing out from his hands into Lin Mu, and the same was happening with Crown Princess Shang.

~HONG~

The greenish gold platform underneath Lin Mu transformed into a flower bud on which he floated. All those that saw this flowerbed would feel awe and even a man of a high status like Crown Prince Feng Shun felt the same.

Monk Hushu who saw this almost felt like slapping himself.

"This cannot be… how can one manifest it?" Monk Hushu took several steps back in shock.

"What is happening here?" Crown Princess Shang asked, standing up as well.

She no longer needed to make a conscious effort to channel the energy, as it seemed to be flowing out automatically.

"What is that transformation?" Crown Prince Feng Shun asked as well, wondering if something had gone wrong. "Is it not working?"

"Not working? No, the opposite. It's working too good!" Monk Hushu exclaimed.

"What is that flower bed?" Daoist Chu asked, feeling a serene calmness coming from it.

"That is the manifestation of the Serene Lotus Buddhist Veil technique… I don't even know how Mu Lin is doing this, but this is something only someone with full mastery of the technique would be able to do.

The person who I learned this from can do this too, and I had the luck of observing it once." Monk Hushu stated.

"So what is happening to Daoist Mu Lin now?" Crown Princess Shang asked, her immortal sense unable to observe anything.

The aura surrounding Lin Mu had pushed all their immortal senses out leaving them wondering.

"The Serene Lotus Buddhist Veil technique is a Buddhist healing technique and helps against corrosive and foul energies. Its first stage is what we were using with our cooperation.

In the first stage, one can only heal minor injuries caused by something like the Withering Dao and is perfect for the remnant injuries left from it.

The Second stage allows one to deal with smaller injuries, but it is not something I can use. I would need to practice the technique for years and that is after obtaining a proficiency with the Wood Dao.

After this is the Third Stage which allows one to manifest the Serene Lotus Platform… which is what we're seeing now." Monk Hushu explained while everyone continued to watch.

The flowed bud underneath Lin Mu started to bloom, golden lights shimmering within it. The golden lights turned out to be the petals of the lotus flower.

A few seconds later, the transformation was completed with Lin Mu's body resting on a gold petaled green leaved lotus flower.

A greenish gold aura rose from the flower as well, forming a shell around Lin Mu.

"The veil formed as well… The abbot will be going crazy if he hears this…'
