Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 125

Chapter 125: The Buddha’s Shadow

. In the apocalypse, three things are needed: food, water, and protection from zombies.

Jiang Li couldn’t solve the food problem for now, but there were ways to get water and avoid being scratched by zombies.

Water Gathering Technique is the most basic Taoist technique, capable of gathering water from the air. It requires very low levels of mana and cultivation, but it also has its drawbacks: the amount of water in the air is limited, making it impossible to gather it indefinitely.

Once their cultivation reaches a higher level, they can learn new techniques, allowing them to perform substance conversions, transforming other substances into water.

Jiang Li knew many protective spells, but they either required a certain cultivation level or weren’t effective enough to satisfy him. Only a dozen or so met the requirements.

From these, Jiang Li chose the Acala Myoko technique.

The name suggests it’s a Buddhist technique, which primarily emphasizes insight, requiring little cultivation and consuming minimal spiritual energy. As expected

, while Luo Zhu was using the Water Gathering Technique to engage in a water fight with the Brahma Tower, Luo Ying was struggling to keep the water ball in her hand from deforming.

Luo Ying was overcome with grief. Aside from saving his sister, he hadn’t encountered a single happy event since his rebirth.

Is talent really that important? He roared inwardly.

“How did you master the Acalanatha Dharma so quickly?” Jiang Li asked curiously.

“No thoughts, no desires, no wants.” Luo Ying clasped his hands together, his body radiating a faint golden light, his expression impassive.

Though he couldn’t explain why, Jiang Li felt Luo Ying possessed a natural talent for Buddhism.

Buddhism is difficult to master; some slow-witted practitioners struggle to grasp its true meaning throughout their lives. Yet, Luo Ying had quickly mastered the Acalanatha Dharma—at its most elementary level, of course.

This was remarkable, considering Luo Zhu was still struggling to grasp the key, his protective golden light shattering before it could even take shape.

Seeing his brother’s success, Luo Zhu curiously poked at it, discovering that the golden light surrounding his brother’s body was like gold foil, rigid and unbreakable, even with force… Oh, it had broken through.

Luo Zhu was now at the first level of Qi training, possessing considerable strength.

This time, Brahma Tower truly had good intentions to help Luo Ying: “The Dharma and the Sutra are inseparable. I’ll teach you the Vidyaraja Sutra, which complements the Acala Dharma. Reciting it silently in your heart will strengthen your golden body.”

Luo Ying had a good memory, and Brahma Tower, mouth dry, finally memorized the Vidyaraja Sutra.

Under Jiang Li’s guidance, Luo Zhu also finally mastered the Acala Dharma, forming the lowest level of golden body, but its hardness was no match for Luo Ying’s.

She also couldn’t memorize the lengthy Vidyaraja Sutra.

She confided her troubles to Jiang Li, but Jiang Li replied, “Although the effect isn’t great, playing it on a tape recorder will work.”

…Mr. Jiang, you must be a divine punishment for me.

Luo Ying recalled scratching her head and reciting the sutra, and silently wept.

“Okay, just kidding. A tape recorder will attract zombies. You should practice the Acala Dharma at home first.”

Bang—boom—

the sudden roar of artillery fire rattled the windows.

“It’s the army!”

Luo Ying realized.

Jiang Li’s spiritual sense could only be observed by himself and could not be shared with others, which had a direct impact. Luo Ying had no choice but to pry open the cracks in the wooden planks and observe the military’s movements through the window.

The soaring blue whale came under intense fire, its massive body seemingly destined to become a target.

“It’s so big, it’s just a bluff,” the commander sneered inwardly. “It’s slow, just a bigger target, just a moving lump of fat. How can it possibly withstand the fire of a mechanized force?”

The survivors in the city watched this scene, tears welling in their eyes. They crossed their arms, praying that the damned monster would be completely destroyed by the military’s artillery fire.

Luo Ying saw this scene and thought, “Oh no! How could a corpse-like blue whale be a target? When he fought against

it, it was as light as a bird! The only time a blue whale wouldn’t evade an attack was if it didn’t recognize it as an attack!

The army’s most proud modern weaponry posed no threat to a fourth-level zombie!

In his previous life, he was busy dodging zombies and had no chance to witness the clash between the army and the Blue Whale. He only heard about it later, saying the army was utterly defeated.

Now, witnessing it with his own eyes, he could guess what happened next.

The smoke from the artillery fire obscured vision, allowing radar to detect the Blue Whale’s movements. Seeing the whale’s position on the radar, the commander ordered the attack to continue.

“Report, the target is beginning to fall.”

The commander exclaimed in delight: “Continue the attack. Don’t give them a moment to breathe!”

“Yes!”

The boosters ignited, and the missiles flew out of the launcher, executing the maneuvers pre-programmed by their onboard computers and striking the Blue Whale with pinpoint accuracy.

The missiles, traveling at a maximum speed of 891 kilometers per hour, blazed relentlessly at their target.

“The target is falling from the smoke!”

Through binoculars, the soldiers watched as the massive Blue Whale plummeted from the smoke, its wings folding as countless missiles unleashed their fury upon it, emitting a deafening roar, as if detailing the monster’s crimes.

This single monster had trapped ten million people in the zombie zone, making rescue impossible. Even a third of the survivors were optimistic!

“No, the target has spread its wings and is flying this way!”

a soldier noticed the unusual movement and shouted.

The blue whale, about to crash, spread its fleshy wings and slapped the ground with force, creating a hurricane of wind that lifted its body.

The blue whale had undergone a mutation, now a hundred meters long, and with its wings spread, a terrifying three hundred meters wide.

Flying close to the ground, it transformed into a three-hundred-meter-wide war machine, sweeping down every target in its path.

Buildings were severed by its wings, crushing countless survivors inside. The abnormal air pressure between the wings and the ground caused zombies roaming the streets to soar high and pulverize. Windows in houses, unable to withstand the pressure, were blown inside, leaving survivors facing windowless safe houses…

Wherever the blue whale passed, human and zombie alike perished.

The army was right in front of the blue whale. They certainly couldn’t withstand the Mach 2 impact of an object weighing nearly a thousand tons. It’s better to say that no means on this planet could withstand such an impact.

A fully mechanized army was swept by the blue whale, and situations like this are happening all over the world.

After cleaning up the troops, the corpse-like blue whales flew inland.

And there are still seventy or eighty such blue whales.

Seeing this scene, Luo Zhu swallowed his saliva and was so shocked that he couldn’t speak for a long time.

Although it has the advantage of size, it is only the fourth level…

Luo Zhu learned from Jiang Li that he hopes his brother will kill all these zombies within six months.

Luo Zhu saw the water ball in his palm that had no power, and secretly made up his mind to share the pressure with his brother. It’s just the “Ming Wang Sutra”, I’ll memorize it!

…

Three days later.

The brother and sister were ready to go.

“It’s time to set out to collect brain cores.”
