Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Misfortune: Starting from the Blind Prince

Royal Residence, study.

On the desk lay an open copy of "Great Yu Sacred Grounds: Buddhism Chapter."

The book "Great Yu Sacred Grounds: Buddhism Chapter" introduces the sacred cultivation grounds of the Buddhist lineage within the Great Yu territory.

Among the three thousand six hundred temples, only four can be considered sacred Buddhist grounds, fewer than the seven lineages of Taoism.

White Horse Temple, Great Chan Temple, Vajra Temple, and Great Thunderclap Temple, these four temples are the sacred grounds of Buddhism.

Over ninety percent of the Upper Three Realms Buddhist cultivators come from these four major temples.

As for the other Buddhist temples, they are basically established by the disciples and descendants of these four temples.

Zhou Hao Chen flipped through "Great Yu Sacred Grounds: Buddhism Chapter," carefully comparing it with the dark swastika symbol displayed by the masked man.

But he found nothing!

The dark swastika symbol displayed by the masked man has absolutely no connection to the inheritance of the four major temples.

His background is shrouded in a fog, making it impossible to see clearly.

Closing the book, Zhou Hao Chen exhaled a long breath and rubbed his temples.

"Troublesome!"

"Investigating the White Lotus Sect is one thing, but now a masked man of unknown origin suddenly appears."

"This masked man is most likely an internal traitor colluding with the White Lotus Sect."

Zhou Hao Chen mentally reviewed the Buddhist cultivators in the Great Yu court.

But upon review, he became even more headache.

Because Buddhism emphasizes universal salvation and is not enthusiastic about becoming officials, there are very few Buddhist cultivators in the Great Yu court.

There is not even a single Buddhist cultivator in the Upper Three Realms.

"I only hope that Zhong Yunhu can extract valuable clues from his interrogation." Zhou Hao Chen muttered to himself.

There must be many valuable clues in Zhong Yunhu's head.

Otherwise, why would the masked man kill to silence him?

It's just that the White Lotus Sect has always been tough, making it difficult to interrogate.

Qin Qiulan brought in a bowl of ginseng soup, gracefully walking in.

"Your Highness, drink the ginseng soup!"

Taking a sip of the ginseng soup, the warm feeling made Zhou Hao Chen feel much more comfortable, as if soaking in a hot spring.

Following that, Qin Qiulan softly said.

"Your Highness, Little Linzi has something to request an audience."

"Little Linzi?" Zhou Hao Chen was taken aback for a moment, but still summoned Little Linzi.

After Little Linzi came in, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Zhou Hao Chen, his attitude extremely respectful.

"Little Linzi, get up."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

"Little Linzi, what is the matter for which you seek me?"

"Your Highness, this servant has obtained two items and requests Your Highness to take a look."

As soon as Little Linzi said this, Zhou Hao Chen's spirits immediately lifted.

Little Linzi possesses the Myriad Treasures Spirit Body, and what can trigger his reaction is mostly a treasure.

"Present them!"

Qin Qiulan presented the treasures brought by Little Linzi.

There were two treasures in total.

One was a Buddhist scripture, and the other was a Buddha statue.

"Your Highness, this is the most common Diamond Sutra found in the market." Qin Qiulan flipped through it and whispered in Zhou Hao Chen's ear.

Zhou Hao Chen was not surprised that Qin Qiulan did not see anything unusual.

If it could be seen through at a glance, how would it be Little Linzi's turn with his Myriad Treasures Spirit Body?

Zhou Hao Chen's fingertips touched the cover of the Diamond Sutra, and in his sea of consciousness, the Bagua diagram stirred, revealing a divination symbol.

[Three Yin Profound Primordial Skill: A divine skill created by the eunuch in charge of the seal of the previous dynasty. This is a shortcut method, with extremely fast cultivation speed, but to practice this skill, one must first castrate oneself. It is hidden in the interlayer of the seventh page of the Diamond Sutra.]

Is this the Great Yu version of the Sunflower Manual?

The corners of Zhou Hao Chen's mouth twitched slightly. This cultivation method is truly suitable for Little Linzi.

His fingertips flipped through the pages of the Diamond Sutra, and when he reached the seventh page, he indeed noticed a trace of something wrong.

The seventh page was slightly thicker than the other pages.

If Zhou Hao Chen hadn't known in advance that there was an interlayer on the seventh page and felt it carefully, he would never have noticed it.

After all, there was only a slight difference, and even if others noticed it, they would mostly think it was due to poor paper workmanship and poor quality.

His fingers gently rubbed, and the interlayer was torn open by Zhou Hao Chen.

"Your Highness, there is an interlayer here!" Qin Qiulan exclaimed, the surprised expression in her beautiful eyes extremely intense, as if it was about to flow out like a gentle stream.

"Aunt Qing, help me see what's in the interlayer."

After Qin Qiulan took a rough look, she said.

"Your Highness, it is a cultivation method called Three Yin Profound Primordial Skill, but this cultivation method…"

"It seems to be specially for eunuchs to cultivate."

"Little Linzi, the Three Yin Profound Primordial Skill is bestowed upon you."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Little Linzi excitedly took the cultivation method, his heart filled with gratitude.

Zhou Hao Chen, however, had a feeling of stealing credit.

Even without himself, Little Linzi would most likely be able to find the Three Yin Profound Primordial Skill in the interlayer on his own.

Following that, Zhou Hao Chen picked up the Buddha statue again.

This wooden Buddha statue wears a jeweled crown, has a solemn face, holds a treasure pearl in its left hand, and a tin staff in its right hand, sitting on a thousand-petal blue lotus flower.

The latest and most complete novels are available on Liǔ Jiǔ Shū Bā!

Through the black silk, Zhou Hao Chen took a look and recognized that this Buddha statue was Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

[Yakshas Asking Souls: One of the remnants of the Nine Netherworld Prison Visualization Method, it is a matching divine ability of the Yaksha chapter. It can only be mastered after cultivating the Yaksha chapter. The cultivation of Yakshas Asking Souls requires a Yaksha ghost as a guide. After mastering it, it can devour souls and check information. The effect is extremely domineering and can ignore the restrictions in the soul. The effect far exceeds ordinary soul searching. It is hidden in the blue lotus platform of the Buddha statue.]

Seeing the divination symbol in his mind, a hint of surprise appeared in Zhou Hao Chen's eyes.

It was actually one of the remnants of the Nine Netherworld Prison Visualization.

And it needs to be cultivated in conjunction with the Yaksha chapter.

A thought couldn't help but arise in Zhou Hao Chen's mind.

What a coincidence!

It was like it was specially delivered to his door.

Zhou Hao Chen's fingertips gently caressed the blue lotus platform on which the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was sitting, and then suddenly exerted force.

A piece of dark paper fell out of the damaged blue lotus platform.

"Your Highness, it's another cultivation method!"

Qin Qiulan caught the dark paper and exclaimed.

Her gaze towards Little Linzi was a little strange.

Was this little eunuch the illegitimate son of the heavens?

Both treasures had hidden secrets.

However, it seemed that His Highness had good luck.

Even if Little Linzi obtained the treasures, he still had to rely on His Highness's hand to obtain them.

Qin Qiulan thought to herself.

Zhou Hao Chen accepted the secret manual of the Yakshas Asking Souls divine ability and said indifferently.

"Little Linzi has contributed to the treasure offering, reward him with ten thousand taels of silver."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Little Linzi knelt down and kowtowed to Zhou Hao Chen.

Ten thousand taels was enough for his parents, brothers, and sisters to live as wealthy squires for a lifetime.

"In addition to this, give Little Linzi another five thousand taels."

"Little Linzi, this silver is for you to make connections in the palace and inquire about news."

"If there is any important news in the palace, send it to the Royal Residence as soon as possible."

Hearing Zhou Hao Chen's instructions, Little Linzi revealed an excited expression.

"This servant will definitely do his best to be Your Highness's eyes, watching the movements in the palace."

Feeling the excitement in Little Linzi's heart, Zhou Hao Chen secretly smiled in his heart.

Little Linzi has ambition.

This is a good thing!

With ambition, there can be motivation.

If he was a salted fish, how could he instruct him to do things?

Zhou Hao Chen asked Little Linzi to be his informant, watching the movements in the palace, not on a whim.

The Crown Prince, the Second Prince, the Sixth Prince, and other princes who coveted the throne, more or less, had informants in the palace.

The former Thirteenth Prince was a salted fish, and palace informants were dispensable.

Now that he had begun to emerge, he would inevitably fall into the eyes of those with ulterior motives, which forced Zhou Hao Chen to have his own intelligence network.

The palace was naturally the most important place.

He had to have confidants to help him watch the movements in the palace.

Little Linzi received the reward, took the silver, and returned to the palace.

Zhou Hao Chen sat alone in the study, studying the secret method of Yakshas Asking Souls.

His current situation was sufficient to cultivate the secret method of Yakshas Asking Souls.

Except…

He lacked a Yaksha ghost to help him cultivate!

As for the source of Yaksha ghosts, perhaps… he would have to rely on the next time he entered the Nine Netherworld.
