Perfect World: Reincarnation

Chapter 157 Karma Red Lotus
The grand hall is majestic and imposing. It is so huge that you can't see the end at a glance.

What kind of huge palace is this that seems to be a world of its own?

The place was filled with mist and the red glow of the sky was flickering. As they walked forward, they saw huge pillars standing in the hall from time to time, as if they were supporting the sky.

The hall was empty and vast. Only Meng Chen and a few others followed Xiao Zhenhuang forward. No other living beings could be seen on the way.

Suddenly, the faint sound of chanting came, shocking the soul and making people alert. It was so sudden that the further you walked forward, the grander it seemed, and finally it became deafening.

"What is this?" Meng Chen whispered, but he could not hear it clearly and could not grasp the true meaning.

Heizi's brows furrowed slightly, and he pricked up his ears to listen, but still felt it was very confusing.

Yuechan, the celestial fox girl, and Xiyao also frowned. Their voices were loud but inaudible, and they were quite shocked.

The sound of Tao was distant, as if it came from outside the heavens. The further they walked, the more grand and deafening it seemed. In the end, they vaguely saw that there were huge golden-red bells roaring all around them, and the mysteries of the heavens were flowing and endless symbols were flashing.

They followed Little True Phoenix's steps forward. The sound of chanting and the sound of the big bell became clearer, as if they were ringing right beside their ears, shocking them.

Finally, Xiao Zhenhuang, who was leading the way, stopped. She brought Meng Chen and others to a place where there was a tall platform in front of them, built with red rocks. A flaming red lotus was floating on it, giving off the aura of an ancient avenue, and strings of runes were flashing in the flames burning in the red lotus.

"What? This is..."

The ancient aura of the red lotus shocked Meng Chen's mind, and he thought of the black lotus of destruction and the golden lotus of merit that he had seen in the Xuantian Secret Realm.

"The Karma Fire Red Lotus, it's actually the Karma Fire Red Lotus." At this moment, Yuechan's eyes widened, unable to control herself.

The Sky Fox Girl also said in surprise at this moment: "This... This is actually one of the six great creation lotuses. It is rumored that this is the supreme Tao seed! They have existed since the beginning of creation, and contain infinite Tao. If the Tao seeds such as the World Tree, the Purple Qi Hongmeng Seed, and the Prototype of the Universe each have flawless Tao, then these six great creation lotuses are the carriers of all Taos and the origin of the Tao."

Although Mengchen, Xiyao and Heizi found it difficult to understand what they heard, they were already excited at this moment.

Heizi turned his head and looked at Mengchen. He remembered that when he was in the Xuantian Secret Realm, Mengchen once obtained the World-Destroying Black Lotus given by his father and the Golden Lotus of Merit given by the Golden Buddha.

If what the fox girl said is true, how extraordinary will Meng Chen be in the future with two divine lotus flowers of creation in his hands!

At a certain moment, Heizi felt upset because his father gave the World-Destroying Divine Lotus to Mengchen but not to him. But slowly, he felt relieved. He believed that his father must have done this after careful consideration and had special arrangements, and he definitely did not care about his son.

At this time, Meng Chen was also extremely shocked and excited after hearing the words of the celestial fox girl. Now Gangzi has helped him preserve two divine lotuses. If this were to get out, the whole world would be shocked.

At a certain moment, his eyes flashed with a gleam of light, as if reflecting a vast universe in which billions of stars were floating and sinking, making him feel like he was about to transcend the material world and dominate the heavens.

At this moment, he felt an urgency in his heart. He desperately hoped to touch the divine lotus as soon as possible, to comprehend the root of the great Dao, to experience transcendence, and to possess the ability to dominate the heavens.

This urgency was not only caused by his current thoughts, but also by his horrible dark memories. He didn't know how much time he had left in this life.

……

These ideas, which were irrelevant at the moment, were quickly discarded by him.

He didn't expect that when he came here to seek the True Phoenix Method, he would encounter the Karma Fire Lotus, which surprised him.

But he understood that this red lotus of karmic fire was probably left by the Ten Evil True Phoenixes back then. He could also see that the True Phoenix method was contained in the red lotus of karmic fire, and the True Phoenix runes were flashing.

At this time, the Sky Fox Girl and Yuechan were attracted by the red lotus and could not move at all. There was a fiery look in their eyes. It was obvious that they each had very specific ideas about this Karma Fire Red Lotus.

Even so, the two of them knew that with their current abilities, they could only watch the Karma Fire Lotus.

The looming red bell roared, runes flashed, and hung above the platform, as if surrounding a red lotus of karmic fire, ringing melodiously.

This hall is extremely empty. Seeing such a Taoist platform, presenting a red lotus and emitting the divine sound of the Tao, naturally makes people feel uneasy.

Xiyao's eyes were focused, and since she heard the words of the sky fox girl, she has been staring at the red lotus on the high platform.

Although she could not quite understand what the fox girl said before, it was not difficult for her to tell that this red lotus was no ordinary thing.

In the process of gradual observation, she discovered the mysterious runes reflected in the red lotus.

"Is that... the True Phoenix Technique?" Xiyao was instantly excited, her beautiful and flawless face full of desire.

In the crimson flames burning in the red lotus, ancient runes flow and the aura of the Great Dao is in the air. One can tell at a glance that it is not an ordinary thing.

"That's right! The True Phoenix Method is in that red lotus!" Little True Phoenix said upon hearing it.

At this time, Xiao Zhenhuang's affirmative words made the fiery eyes of Tianhu Girl and Yuechan calm down.

The fox girl looked at Mengchen, then looked at the little True Phoenix and said, "This Karma Fire Red Lotus is very terrifying. With our current strength, we will be reduced to ashes immediately if we get close to it. The True Phoenix Method contained in it is impossible to comprehend it."

“The fire of karma can burn everything in the world. The True Phoenix Method is contained in the red lotus of the fire of karma, which is definitely not something we can obtain.” Yuechan said.

Meng Chen sighed, maybe Gangzi had a way, but it had already made it clear that Zhen Huang was one of the strong men it admired, and it did not want to disrespect him.

From this point of view, Meng Chen felt that he probably had no chance and could not obtain the True Phoenix Method, let alone the Karma Fire Lotus.

Little True Phoenix suddenly walked forward, but after she had taken a few steps, the red lotus suddenly surged with great power, but it did not hurt her. It just swept across her body and then disappeared.

Then her white body began to glow, and the runes in the red lotus resonated with the surrounding Taoist sounds and her. Red symbols appeared one after another on her body, releasing a mysterious aura.

"With your strength, it's definitely not possible!" Little True Phoenix looked back and looked at Xiyao, Heizi, Yuechan, and the Sky Fox Girl one by one. Then, she looked at Mengchen and gestured to him: "You? Why don't you try?"

Xiao Zhenhuang's words were undoubtedly a bit harsh to Heizi and the other four, but they also understood that she was telling the truth. With their strength, they were indeed not qualified to get close to the Karma Fire Red Lotus.

After hearing this, Meng Chen frowned and said, "You said they can't do it, so why do you think I can do it?"

The Sky Fox Girl and Yuechan are even higher in realm than Mengchen. His strengths are nothing more than his magic and ultimate power.

So! He didn't think that with his strength, he could resist the Red Lotus of Karma and realize the true Dharma.

"Coward! I really overestimated you. I thought you were really..." Little True Phoenix said contemptuously.

Previously, Meng Chen built a bridge leading to the ancient temple, which made her believe for a time that Meng Chen might really be the person her mother deduced.

But at this moment, seeing Meng Chen so timid, he couldn't help but feel that he was overthinking. Her mother was such a great person, how could the person she liked be such a coward.

"This is called not being blind, you know what I mean!" Meng Chen whispered and argued.

Because the other party was so powerful, Meng Chen didn't dare to say anything too aggressively for fear of angering him.

"You're a coward! And you're a damn coward. Making excuses will only make me look down on you even more!"

Meng Chen's current performance, combined with his previous shameless behavior towards Yuechan and others, made Xiao Zhenhuang look even more disgusted with Meng Chen.

"Go! Don't let this little guy look down on my lineage of immortal monks." At this moment, the voice of Vajra echoed in his heart.

“Ah this...!” Meng Chen was stunned for a moment.

Then, knowing Meng Chen's concerns, Vajra said again: "Don't worry! This may be a test left by the True Phoenix. You can use your cave heaven realm to experience it."

"Okay!" Meng Chen responded in his heart.

Since Vajra said so, he would definitely do it. The only thing he believed was that Vajra would never harm him and he could trust him completely.

"Boom..."

In an instant, Meng Chen opened up all the caves, the light became bright and dazzling, and he stepped forward resolutely.

At this moment, the little True Phoenix's disdainful eyes were startled, "He...is not scared anymore?"

Yuechan, the Sky Fox Girl and others beside him looked at Mengchen's back with surprise. Heizi and Xiyao both had a hint of worry on their faces, but they didn't dare to open their mouths to stop him.

But except Yuechan, the Sky Fox Girl, Heizi, and Xiyao all knew that there was an extraordinary person behind Mengchen, and they believed that he would be able to help him escape danger in times of crisis.

So the worry that had emerged on his face gradually disappeared, and he began to stare intently.

After Meng Chen took seven steps, he seemed to have stepped into a certain range, and the red lotus of karmic fire on the high platform once again emitted a red glow.

In response to this, Meng Chen formed seals, and the ten caves surrounded the eleventh cave, emitting divine light to protect himself.

The red light rippled over and enveloped Meng Chen. For a moment, Meng Chen's body was covered with a layer of red light.

The light layer was flowing with red light, but under the watchful eyes of Xiao Zhenhuang, Yuechan and others, it shattered like glass in an instant, and turned into many red star-like light points and disappeared.

"He's actually fine!"

Yuechan was surprised. The Red Lotus of Karma Fire would probably make even a leader-level strongman retreat upon seeing it. However, he was only covered by the red light for a moment without any damage. This was simply unbelievable.

After sensing that no bad omen occurred, Meng Chen sat down cross-legged, facing the red Taoist platform, closed his eyes, and began to silently sense the True Phoenix Rune reflected in the red lotus, trying to resonate with it and understand the true meaning of the True Phoenix Method.

Unfortunately, apart from hearing the grand chanting and the sound of the avenue bell, he was still unable to resonate with the True Phoenix Rune in the red lotus.

After sitting cross-legged for about half an hour without any results, he stood up and continued to move closer to the platform, while observing carefully, staring at the True Phoenix Rune flashing in the red lotus.

"You...can't sense it?" Seeing this, Xiao Zhenhuang asked with a bewildered look on his face, very puzzled.

Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be!
He was able to build a bridge to reach the ancient temple and was not injured by the red lotus, which obviously showed that he had his mother's approval.

It should be easy to sense the True Phoenix Method in the red lotus, how come...

"Hmm! I can't sense it." Meng Chen turned around and replied.

Then he looked at Little True Phoenix and smiled, "Why not just teach me the True Phoenix Method? Why bother with all this trouble? You give me the True Phoenix Method, and I'll give you the Kunpeng Method and the Nine Nether Beast Method. Wouldn't that make everyone happy?"

"You wish! I brought you here for certain reasons and to verify some things." Little True Phoenix refused.

She brought Mengchen here simply because she thought he was most likely the person her mother had deduced, so she brought him here to verify and see if it was really him.

If it was him, he would be able to obtain the True Phoenix Method without her giving it to him.

If not, how could she allow the true method of her True Phoenix clan to be spread so easily? Did she really think that the True Phoenix clan was so casual? !
