Chapter 3: A Martial Dao Prodigy Rarely Seen in a Millennium?
For Huiwen, an Expert of the Innate Realm peak.
There were very few things that could stir his emotions.
Buddhist cultivation techniques inherently possessed the effect of calming the mind.
Huiwen had been immersed in Buddhist Dharma for seventy to eighty years; it wasn't that he remained completely unperturbed when a mountain collapsed before him, but he wasn't far from it.
Only now.
A storm surged in Huiwen's heart.
"Is this Luo Han Fist? No, this isn't Luo Han Fist!!"
Huiwen carefully observed the young novice monk practicing the fist technique.
Compared to the surging vital energy unleashed by hundreds of adult warrior monks practicing Luo Han Fist,
This young novice monk's practice did not cause much commotion.
Yet, in Huiwen's eyes, it possessed a quality akin to 'the antelope hanging its horns', appearing completely natural and seamless.
Every punch and kick thrown by the young novice monk carried an inexplicable profound meaning.
"How is this possible?!"
"How could a mere child master such a profound fist technique?"
Huiwen found it hard to believe.
Any martial art, including Buddhist martial arts, requires a great deal of time to comprehend in order to achieve mastery.
Luo Han Fist is not a profound martial art, but an ordinary person would still need to practice diligently for six or seven years to achieve something.
However, the fist technique practiced by the young novice monk was clearly several levels higher than Luo Han Fist.
Yet, it was already perfectly mastered, which was simply inconceivable.
What surprised Huiwen the most was that he had never seen the fist technique practiced by the young novice monk.
It bore traces of Luo Han Fist, yet it was infinitely more profound than Luo Han Fist.
It had almost reached the level of Da Chan Temple's Seventy-Two Supreme Techniques.
Such a superior Buddhist martial art, Huiwen, this nearly century-old monk, had actually never heard of it.
"Abbot."
The other young novice monks also noticed Huiwen's gaze.
One by one, their faces turned pale, and they stood still obediently.
Only Lin Yuan continued to practice the 'Great Luo Han Buddha Fist' he had just comprehended.
"En."
At this moment, Huiwen was not concerned with these young novice monks who had snuck out.
He waved his hand, signaling all the young novice monks to leave.
He, himself, stared intently at Lin Yuan, who was practicing his fist technique.
"Great Luo Han Buddha Fist!!"
Lin Yuan practiced this fist technique he had comprehended.
He simultaneously felt a tingling sensation spreading through his limbs and bones.
It was as comfortable as soaking in a hot spring.
He didn't know how much time had passed.
Within Lin Yuan's lower abdomen, in his dantian, a wisp of energy silently condensed.
"This should be Inner Energy, right?"
"The Innate Inner Energy that only Innate Realm martial Experts can master?"
Lin Yuan speculated in his heart.
He was just a three or four-year-old novice monk, and his knowledge was limited.
He only knew that Innate Inner Energy was a power mastered by Innate Realm martial Experts.
As soon as the Inner Energy formed, Lin Yuan immediately felt a sense of hunger.
So, he instinctively stopped practicing his fist technique.
If he continued to practice, he would probably starve to death.
However, when Lin Yuan looked around him,
He found that the hundreds of warrior monks not far away, as well as the dozen or so young novice monks beside him,
Had all vanished.
In their place were seven elderly monks.
The long-eyebrowed old monk in the middle, with his piercing gaze, made Lin Yuan's scalp tingle slightly.
"Abbot? Great Zen Temple Abbot?"
Lin Yuan asked tentatively.
Among the seven monks, Lin Yuan had seen three of them.
The Abbot of the Warrior Monk Courtyard, the Abbot of the Discipline Courtyard, and the current Great Zen Temple Abbot.
As for the other four, he didn't recognize them.
However, being able to stand alongside the Great Zen Temple Abbot and the Abbots, their status and position must not be low.
Especially that Long Eyebrow Old Monk, even the Great Zen Temple Abbot only dared to stand half a step behind him.
"Little fellow."
The current Great Zen Temple Abbot, Huijue, asked with a gentle smile, "Where did you learn the set of fist techniques you just practiced?"
After the Abbot of the Warrior Monk Courtyard, Huiwen, sent the other young novice monks away, he immediately contacted the Great Zen Temple Abbot and the other Abbots.
These true martial Experts of Da Chan Temple immediately realized the seriousness of the matter and dropped what they were doing to rush over.
Everyone's judgment was the same as Huiwen's—
The set of fist techniques Lin Yuan practiced was so profound in its conception that it was no less inferior to superior martial arts.
Furthermore, this fist technique was a Buddhist fist technique that had never been heard of before.
If they hadn't witnessed it with their own eyes, everyone would not have believed it.
That there could be a superior Buddhist martial art in this world that they had never even heard of.
"Where did I learn it from?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
His immediate practice of 'Great Luo Han Buddha Fist' also had the intention of showcasing his talent.
Through the three attempts just now, Lin Yuan understood that to unleash the effect of Heaven-Defying Comprehension, he must try his best to come into contact with the profound martial arts of this world.
By observing sparrows and earthworms, he could only comprehend ordinary martial arts like 'Divine Sparrow Soaring Sky Movement Technique' and 'Earth Dragon Flipping Body Art'.
However, by observing the warrior monks practicing Luo Han Fist, he could directly comprehend the superior martial art 'Great Luo Han Buddha Fist'.
If he could observe a superior martial art, then what he would comprehend...
Although Lin Yuan did not know the status of superior martial arts,
But being able to allow him to reach the heavens in one step and condense Innate Inner Energy, it was naturally not simple.
And to come into contact with such superior martial arts of Da Chan Temple, or even more profound martial arts,
Just being a young novice monk would certainly not be enough.
"Reporting to the Great Zen Temple Abbot, I just saw my senior brothers practicing fist techniques, and I also wanted to follow along and practice. As I practiced, I comprehended this fist technique, and I don't know if I should have…"
Lin Yuan timely revealed a hint of apprehension.
What he said was also not false.
In the Cosmic Human Alliance, if Lin Yuan were so honest, he might be observed or even studied by others.
But in this world, similar to a Martial Dao World of ancient feudal dynasties.
Especially in a place like Da Chan Temple, which is full of Buddhist atmosphere.
Even if Lin Yuan displayed even greater talent, he would only be seen as the reincarnation of a true Buddha, or a Buddhist Son in this world.
"Watching warrior monks practice Luo Han Fist, and then comprehending a superior martial art far surpassing Luo Han Fist…"
The Great Zen Temple Abbot and the other Abbots fell silent.
The long-eyebrowed monk, who had been staring intently at Lin Yuan, also fell silent.
If anyone else dared to say this, the few people naturally wouldn't believe it.
What a joke.
Do they really think superior martial arts are like cabbages?
Most of the superior martial arts in the world were painstakingly created by Grandmaster Realm martial Experts.
Da Chan Temple, as a Buddhist holy land and a great martial arts sect of the world,
Mainly relied on the Seventy-Two Supreme Techniques to continuously cultivate Innate Realm martial Experts.
The Seventy-Two Supreme Techniques were seventy-two superior martial arts.
You, a three or four-year-old child, say you comprehended a superior martial art?
However, the Great Zen Temple Abbot and the others, upon careful thought, found it incredibly plausible that Lin Yuan was telling the truth.
Firstly, Great Luo Han Buddha Fist is a superior Buddhist martial art.
In the current world, besides Da Chan Temple, there are indeed some other Buddhist sects.
But undoubtedly, they are all led by Da Chan Temple.
There are superior Buddhist martial arts outside of the Seventy-Two Supreme Techniques.
But the Great Zen Temple Abbot and the Abbots would certainly have heard of them.
The superior fist technique Lin Yuan practiced was something everyone saw for the first time.
Secondly, it's not difficult to see that Great Luo Han Buddha Fist has a deep connection with Luo Han Fist.
This aligns with Lin Yuan's statement of comprehending 'Great Luo Han Buddha Fist' by observing Luo Han Fist.
In a flash of lightning, the Great Zen Temple Abbot and several Abbots exchanged glances.
A thought simultaneously emerged in their minds.
Could it be that among this batch of newly recruited disciples of Da Chan Temple, a martial Dao prodigy, rarely seen in a millennium, has truly appeared?
