Chapter 897: Chapter 897: Obtaining Buddha’s Relic

The Ancient Honored One looked at Ye Qingchen and slowly said, "Young man, if you want to absorb the energy of the Buddha’s Relic, it’s best to do so inside this grand hall. Not only is there a rich scent of Buddhist Law here, but there’s also the statue’s protection and blessing, which can help you absorb the Relic’s power more effectively."

The Ancient Honored One was giving a heartfelt suggestion.

He hadn’t seen such a promising young talent in a long time.

Ye Qingchen nodded, aware that the Ancient Honored One’s advice was well-intentioned.

Having gone through trials to reach this place, he was not in a hurry.

He thanked the Ancient Honored One, then sat cross-legged in the center of the hall, holding the Buddha’s Relic in his hands, and closed his eyes to begin absorbing.

The atmosphere in the grand hall instantly became more solemn and serene.

The statue’s light grew brighter, as if responding to Ye Qingchen.

The air was filled with a faint scent of sandalwood, making one feel refreshed.

Ye Qingchen closed his eyes, gently holding the Buddha’s Relic with both hands.

The Relic emitted a gentle golden glow, which gradually enveloped Ye Qingchen entirely.

The statue’s radiance seemed to be responding, starting to flow slowly, forming thin lines of light that gathered onto Ye Qingchen.

Over time, a faint halo emerged around Ye Qingchen, composed of the combined forces of the Relic and the statue, forming a protective barrier.

The halo exuded a warm and harmonious power, soothing Ye Qingchen’s body and mind.

The air in the hall also changed, seemingly becoming fresher and purer.

On the surrounding walls and columns, faint runes appeared, radiating a weak glow that mingled with the statue’s and the Relic’s light.

The entire grand hall seemed to come alive at that moment, filled with a sacred and solemn aura.

Ye Qingchen could feel the Relic’s energy slowly flowing into his body, its warm power circulating in his meridians as if cleansing and strengthening his body.

The statue’s energy seemed like an invisible force, nourishing his spirit and soul, allowing him to experience an unprecedented calm and tranquility.

The changes around him weren’t just visual; they left a profound impression on Ye Qingchen’s perception.

Every breath of air, every beam of light in the hall seemed to convey endless power to him.

Ye Qingchen felt a mystical connection between himself and the hall, the statue, and the Relic, as if, at that moment, all of creation had merged into one.

The Ancient Honored One was right; absorbing here had many benefits indeed.

This wondrous sensation made Ye Qingchen focus even more on absorption.

His state of mind became clearer, and his Spiritual Power gradually increased.

The combined forces of the Buddha’s Relic and the statue were helping him reach an unprecedented cultivation realm during his brief meditation.

After absorbing the energy of the Buddha’s Relic for a while, the statue underwent another change.

The statue’s golden glow grew fiercer, as if the sun had risen within the hall.

Golden light emanated from every detail of the statue, gradually converging into a curtain of light that surrounded the entire hall.

Within the curtain of light, Ye Qingchen was enveloped in golden radiance, appearing even more sacred and solemn.

Then, the statue’s expression began to change.

The originally serene face gradually showed a compassionate and peaceful smile, as if feeling gratified by Ye Qingchen’s efforts and determination.

The statue’s eyes slightly opened, emanating a profound and wise light that seemed to see through Ye Qingchen’s soul, granting him a sense of unprecedented peace and calm.

The statue’s gestures also began to change. The previously still posture seemed to move slowly, forming a gesture of welcome and blessing.

This gesture seemed to convey a message to Ye Qingchen—Young man, I believe in you.

As the statue changed, so too did the surroundings within the hall.

The runes on the walls and columns grew brighter, emitting a gentle light as if blessing Ye Qingchen’s cultivation.

Ancient patterns faintly emerged on the hall’s floor, forming a massive formation.

To help Ye Qingchen better absorb the Relic’s energy.

The air in the grand hall also became even fresher and purer, with each breath full of sacred power.

Ye Qingchen could sense streams of warm and powerful energy flowing from the statue, gathering onto him, aiding him in more quickly absorbing the Relic’s power.

These energies circulated in his meridians, nourishing his body and fortifying his soul.

When he had just started absorbing the energy of the Buddha’s Relic, suddenly he felt a warm and strong force surge from the Relic, through his palms, into his body.

The Relic’s energy was like a warm river, gently flowing into his meridians and rapidly spreading to his entire body.

Initially, as the energy moved through his meridians, it brought waves of warmth, as if the winter sun was shining down on him.

Ye Qingchen felt his blood start to boil, his cells seeming to cheer with joy, with every pore absorbing this sacred power.

As the absorption deepened, the Relic’s energy grew stronger, causing Ye Qingchen’s meridians to gradually expand.

At his dantian, the originally calm lake of Spiritual Power now appeared as if injected with the spring of life, starting to churn violently.

The Spiritual Power within the lake, activated by the Relic’s energy, became purer and more concentrated, as if liquid Spiritual Power was gradually solidifying.

This energy not only flowed through his meridians but also began to penetrate his muscles and bones.

Nourished by this energy, his muscles became increasingly compact and powerful, with every fiber seemingly filled with explosive power.

His bones, tempered by this energy, became increasingly hard and flexible, as if they could withstand any blow.

Meanwhile, Ye Qingchen’s soul also grew stronger under the nurturing of this energy.

His consciousness gradually became clearer, his thoughts sharper and more agile, as if he could fathom the mysteries of heaven and earth.

His Spiritual Sense, propelled by this energy, expanded gradually, allowing him to perceive further distances and even see tiny details he couldn’t before.

The flow of energy not only strengthened Ye Qingchen’s body and soul but also repaired the hidden injuries and fatigue within him.

The scars and fatigue left from various battles rapidly healed and vanished under the nurturing of this energy.

He felt that his body had been completely cleansed, refreshed, and filled with vitality and power.

As time went on, the initially full lake of Spiritual Power in Ye Qingchen’s dantian gradually condensed into a dazzling crystal of Spiritual Power.
