Bringing the farm to another world

Chapter 15933 Stone Buddha Temple

Shifo Temple is a physical cultivation sect, and also a Buddhist sect. All its disciples are monks. Shifo Temple and Qinglan Sect are not in the same area. Shifo Temple is the strongest sect in their area, so all those who can become disciples of Shifo Temple are geniuses. Even an outer disciple is a genius.

Shi Yongyan is an outer disciple of Shifo Temple. Shi Yongyan is his Dharma name. He no longer uses his real name because once you become an outer disciple of Shifo Temple, you are a monk for life, so you can no longer use your secular name.

Shi Yongyan sat in his room with his head on the ground, his legs stretched straight up to the sky, and his hands clasped together in front of his chest. If his head hadn't been on the ground, he would have looked like an ordinary monk standing upright with his hands clasped together.

However, he was now using his head to touch the ground, and there was a clear dent on the top of his head, indicating that he was practicing martial arts. After a while, Shi Yongyan rolled over and stood up.

He let out a long breath, glanced around, and then muttered, "Still a little short. Why is it always just a little short?" Shifosi has always focused on physical training. Only when the body reaches a certain level can one proceed to the next step. Right now, he's only missing the area above his head. He hasn't met the requirements yet. Once the area above his head reaches the required level, he can become a master of the Qi level.

However, he had been practicing on the area above his head for several months but still hadn't succeeded, which frustrated him greatly. But he didn't have a good solution. Body cultivators' cultivation speed was inherently slower than that of ordinary cultivators, so there was no use in being anxious.

Shi Yongyan stood in the room for a while before walking outside. Soon he arrived at the main hall of the Stone Buddha Hall, which was called the Stone Buddha Temple. It was the largest complex of buildings on the Stone Buddha Continent. However, Shi Yongyan was an outer disciple of the Stone Buddha Temple, so the area where they lived was on the outer perimeter of the complex.

Each of Shi Yongyan and his group had a small room, and ten people shared a small courtyard. When Shi Yongyan came out of his room, he saw two people sitting in the courtyard. Shi Yongyan immediately greeted them with a respectful bow, saying, "Greetings, my two senior brothers."

The two men returned the greeting with smiles, and one of them asked, "Junior Brother Yongyan, did you just finish your cultivation? How do you feel?"

Shi Yongyan shook his head and said, "It's still a little short."

The monk smiled and said, "Don't rush, polish it slowly, it will be finished soon. You are only sixteen years old this year, there's no need to rush."

Shi Yongyan replied, "Yes, Senior Brother."

The monk nodded, and then Shi Yongyan left. After Shi Yongyan left, another person looked at him with some confusion and said, "Senior brother, do you really think so highly of him?"

The monk smiled and said, "Of course, Junior Brother Yongyan is only sixteen years old and he is already about to reach the Shi level. Although he was stuck at this last step for a few months, with his talent, he will soon reach the Shi level. When he reaches the Shi level at sixteen, he will definitely attract the attention of the sect. His future is limitless."

The other monk nodded without speaking, but his eyes were full of envy. His talent was no match for Shi Yongyan's. He was already twenty years old and had not yet reached the master level. His talent was far inferior to Shi Yongyan's.

At this moment, Shi Yongyan arrived at the outer sect's library. There are two places for outer sect disciples to read books at the outer sect of Shifo Temple. One place is called the library, which contains books about strange tales of the martial arts world, not cultivation techniques. Therefore, it is open to all outer sect disciples and is free of charge.

The other area, called the Sutra Repository, contained the actual martial arts manuals of the Stone Buddha Temple, and admission was by fee. Shi Yongyan had a habit of reading books about strange and unusual events; these books allowed him to see a different world. So, in his spare time, he would come to the Sutra Repository to browse. Once there, Shi Yongyan wandered around the Sutra Repository. He had seen many of the books before, and of course, there were many more he hadn't. However, some books had similar content, and he generally didn't read those anymore. What he wanted to see now were some different kinds of books.

He wandered between the bookshelves, and when he came to one, he stopped. He saw a book with a white cover, which didn't look special. However, Shi Yongyan had a feeling that the book was calling to him. He curiously took the book out and glanced at the cover. He saw a single word written on the cover: "Lazy"!
Upon seeing the word "lazy," Shi Yongyan was taken aback. What kind of book was this? Why was there only one word on it? Curious, he opened the book. On the first page, he saw a person lying on a bed, covered with a blanket. The drawing was excellent, depicting the person's disheveled appearance, even showing a few blades of grass growing on the blanket. The person seemed completely oblivious, fast asleep. This sight made Shi Yongyan chuckle, but it also fueled his curiosity about what the book contained.

He examined the picture carefully, then turned to the second page. On the second page, there was only the word "lazy." The entire page contained only this one word, but it seemed to possess a magical power, directly attracting Shi Yongyan's attention. Shi Yongyan stood there motionless, staring intently at the word. After a while, he finally let out a long breath. Then he turned to the next page, only to find that all the subsequent pages were blank, with nothing on them.

Shi Yongyan was taken aback. Could it be that what he was looking at wasn't actually a book, but a notebook that someone had unintentionally left there? If that were the case, then this person's notebook was quite unique and interesting.

Shi Yongyan smiled slightly, put the notebook back on the bookshelf, then found another book, took it to a chair outside, sat down and started reading. After reading for a while, he put the book back in its original place, then left the library and returned to his courtyard. This time, there was no one in his courtyard, and Shi Yongyan returned to his room.

In the past, he would have started cultivating as soon as he got back to his room, but for some reason, he felt lazy today and didn't want to cultivate at all. He couldn't even muster the slightest bit of enthusiasm.

That's how people are sometimes. If you still have the will to work, even if you're physically exhausted, you can still do your job. But if you lose your will to work, it's a completely different story. You don't want to do anything, you just want to lie down, and you might even feel like you have no energy at all. It's really hard to describe that feeling in words.

That's how Shi Yongyan felt right now. He felt like he had lost all his energy and couldn't muster any strength to cultivate. He collapsed onto the bed and fell asleep immediately.

Not long after falling asleep, Shi Yongyan suddenly found himself in a special space. The space was completely white, with only a bed and a person lying on it. The person was covered with a tattered quilt with a few blades of grass growing on it, and was disheveled. However, he looked quite content lying on the bed and was fast asleep, sleeping soundly.

Shi Yongyan looked at the person and felt that he looked very familiar. Then he remembered that this was the special portrait in the special notebook he had seen today. This piqued his interest, and he wanted to go up and tease the person. But then he stopped. He felt it was pointless. What was the point of teasing that person? He would rather take a nap.

Shi Yongyan didn't know why he had such thoughts, but he actually did it. He lay down on the ground and soon fell fast asleep. He didn't even think about why he was sleeping again when he was clearly sleeping. Was he dreaming? Was he still sleeping in his dream?

Shi Yongyan didn't think about any of this, perhaps he was just too lazy to think about it. He just wanted to sleep. He didn't know how much time had passed when he suddenly woke up. He opened his eyes, looked around, and found that he was not in that space, but in his own room.

Shi Yongyan let out a long breath. Although he was still feeling sluggish, he got up and straightened his clothes. He didn't know what was wrong with him yesterday, why he was so sleepy. But he had slept very well. After straightening his clothes, Shi Yongyan went straight out to the training room. Looking at the dent on the floor of the training room, he took a deep breath and then did a handstand again.

However, as soon as he stood upside down, he let out a surprised exclamation. Then he stood up and touched his head. He discovered that the part he couldn't reach before was now complete. But how could this be? He hadn't achieved it yesterday, and hadn't practiced it since. Why was he suddenly successful? What was going on? You see, they were body cultivators, and body cultivators were different from ordinary cultivators. Body cultivators almost never had sudden enlightenment. Other cultivators might advance to a higher realm with a sudden enlightenment, but body cultivators didn't have that. To reach the next realm, they had to rely on their own gradual cultivation. Only when their skills were cultivated enough could their realm naturally advance.

But he clearly hadn't mastered it yesterday, yet today he inexplicably mastered it all. This isn't right, this is really wrong. What on earth is going on?
Shi Yongyan thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so he gave up and walked straight out the door. The rules of Shifo Temple were very strict. Since his strength had reached the required level, he had to report it to the sect. Otherwise, if the sect found out, he would be punished. So Shi Yongyan had to report it to the sect and let everyone in the sect know that his strength had increased by one level and that he had now reached the White Stone Realm.

At Shifo Temple, an individual's rank is determined by color: white stone is equivalent to the power level, blue stone to the throne level, yellow stone to the royal carriage level, orange stone to the royal palace level, red stone to the royal city level, and black stone to the kingdom level.
