Swordsman the Wanderer
Ch 59's. Buddha Light
Luo Yuan then walked up and stood at the same spot that Jiang Wu had tried just below the Holy Altar, projecting his battle qi.
It triggered the reaction of the Sacred Altar and a Light surrounded the Altar, a trace of excitement flashed across Luo Yuan's face. The light is getting brighter, shining higher. Shortly after, he let out another hum.
The faces of everyone's crowd also stiffened with a nervous feeling of guessing what was about to happen. But not too long later, the beam of light dissipated just as it had happened to Jiang Wu as if nothing had happened.
Once again the crowd that dissolved in silence returned in shock until their voices broke into another commotion.
“Luo Yuan, since you are not chosen by the Holy Altar, get out of there, do not block the way!” Jiang Wu's voice cut through the voices, returning Luo Yuan's words to himself.
Luo Yuan's face turned furious, but in the end, he emptied the place.
After Luo Yuan, there were five others who tried, however, for these five people, there was not the slightest reaction from the Sacred Altar when their battle Qi was released.
The silence around the place made the five people extremely awkward and embarrassed after leaving the Sacred Altar.
In fact, only those with top grade martial spirits would be chosen by the Sacred Altar. Does Zhang En have a top-class Martial Spirit? then he should give it a try as well and stand under the Holy Altar.
Seeing that no one else was willing to try, Zhang En raised his foot and stepped out of the crowd, towards the Sacred Altar, his actions attracting a lot of attention from the people around him.
"This kid looks foreign, I wonder which family genius he came from?"
“Jenius? Who knows, perhaps his martial spirit was only the most common in the lower classes, rising to test his luck. If he was truly a genius, it would be impossible to remain unknown!"
Jiang Wu and Luo Yuan remained standing beside the crowd after their turn, both of them glanced at Zhang En as he walked under the altar. But there was no hope from Zhang En, like the others, they thought that the young man was just another person who just wanted to try their luck like them.
Zhang En stood under the Holy Altar followed by everyone's gaze. The Qi of battle enveloped him back then and out of his body. Not long after, the Sacred Altar instantly illuminated the Gold Medal that was on it.
The noisy crowd suddenly went silent in an instant. Everyone stared in puzzlement at the Sacred Altar that was hovering before their eyes.
Previously, when Jiang Wu and Luo Yuan stood beneath him and projected their battle qi out of their bodies, the shining rays of the Sacred Altar only flickered.
However, different when they saw the Sacred Altar after Zhang En stood there, they saw that light was a powerful glittering light!
This time, the Holy Altar had appeared for more than a month. Most of the geniuses from the existing families in the South Star Kingdom had advanced and tested themselves on the Sacred Altar but none of them had managed to trigger a reaction of this level from it!
After being stunned, the crowd became in an uproar!. “Who exactly is this child, so the reaction of the Holy Altar will be so strong?!”
"Does that mean that his martial talent is stronger than Jiang Wu and Luo Yuan?!"
“Maybe not so. Don't you remember, there was once a time when the Holy Altar chose a child who only had a high martial soul? Who knows, maybe this brat is also a high-class martial spirit!"
"Even if the reaction of the Holy Altar is different from the others, it does not mean that this child will be chosen!"
The words of everyone in that place became frenzied.
Jiang Wu's vision was fixed on Zhang En, while a hidden glint flashed swiftly in Luo Yuan's eyes looking at Zhang En, his mind not difficult to guess.
As the commotion continued, a glittering light from the Sacred Altar rose higher and brighter, giving off a more vivid humming sound than before, and there was a significant difference between the humming of the altar that was issued as long as they stood there.
Everyone's eyes widened in shock at seeing Zhang En.
In the next moment, from the brightly lit altar, a ball of golden light spread over it.
"The light of the Buddha, actually this is the light of the Buddha!"
"The light of Buddha appeared on the Holy Altar!"
Astonishment filled the eyes of the crowd, including Jiang Wu and Luo Yuan.
The story of the Holy Altar that has been circulating for a long time, if one can trigger the emergence of the Buddha Light, the opportunity to be chosen by the altar is certain that he will be chosen.
Everyone was still contemplating the Buddha Light, as the Buddhist chants echoed in the air.
"This, this is the singing of Buddha!"
Buddhist Chanting! The shock of Jiang Wu and Luo Yuan deepened as one after another the golden shadows of Buddha Statues carved around the surface of the medallion flew out from the Sacred Altar floating high in the air.
The astonishment in everyone's heart could no longer be explained in words. The young man actually managed to trigger such a thing. And that is the engraving of Buddha on the four sides of the altar.
If Zhang En could trigger the carving of a four-sided Buddha statue, it meant that the Holy Altar had chosen him, at that moment, a glorious sanctifying power would have enveloped Zhang En's body in the sanctification ritual.
Nerves tensed in shock, everyone in the place tried not to blink, staring at Zhang En and the Sacred Altar.
They were all observing from all directions, suddenly the carvings on one side flickered and flew into the sky high from the altar.
Tension increased, hands sweating as the crowd watched, there were some who were even more nervous than Zhang En.
Standing below the Sacred altar, Zhang En himself was quite nervous. He did not care much about the sanctifying ritual of the power of sanctification, the only thing that mattered was the opportunity to enter the Cave of Life.
WHOOSSSHHHHH!!!
At this moment, the light on the Buddha carvings on all four sides of the altar flickered and flew out, releasing its glorious golden light high in the sky.
The four-sided carvings were in the sky, shining, gathering and rotating at high speed. Buddha's light covered the sky, spreading ten thousand li. The majestic Buddhist light could be clearly seen even from afar by the entire population of the Southern Star Kingdom City making them shocked.
"I-this, did someone trigger a reaction from the carvings of the four sides of the Sacred Altar?"
"The person destined to be chosen by the Holy Altar has appeared!"
“Come, let's go there to see!”
Four images of Buddha carvings circled around the Holy Altar, a stream of sanctifying power enveloping Zhang En.
