## AST 2188 - Buddha Mounts The Diamond White Tiger King

Beihuang Fan summoned the Sun Phoenix.

Beihuang Fan did so with a purpose in mind. The instant the Sun Phoenix appeared, she saw Diamond White Tiger King. At that moment, Diamond White Tiger King asked,” You followed the humans?”

Sun Phoenix said with her familiar and graceful voice, ”Is it really that strange?”

Qing Shui felt awkward at the moment. Two demonic beasts were actually having a conversation with one another while the rest of the people were just standing at the side listening.

“To think that the Sun Phoenix would be the type to follow humankind.” Diamond White Tiger King said with a disdainful tone.

“So what? Those of your kind are the Buddhas’ saddle horse. Buddhas are humans too.” Sun Phoenix replied without hesitation.

“Buddhas are Gods, not humans. Or at least they should not be compared to these people,” replied Diamond White Tiger King.

Qing Shui looked at Beihuang Fan and said, ”What is the point of this fellow being here? Is he just here to argue with us? It is not as if we are rushing for his arrival. That’s right, how do we deal with him?”

Beihuang Fan said, ”Sun Phoenix is not this guy’s opponent, we are not supposed to meddle with him.”

“That does not sound right. Oh right, I have a few Buddha stunts up my sleeves. Don’t you think that I will be able to defeat him?” said Qing Shui after he remembered that he had learned a few Buddha stunts.

“White Tiger King, is being a Buddha’s mount the only thing you are capable of?” said Qing Shui as he walked up towards him suddenly.

“I, Diamond White Tiger King, and those of my kind will only serve the Buddhas. We would rather die than to be the saddle horses of those who are not Buddhas,” said Diamond White Tiger King with his deep voice.

Qing Shui did not doubt Diamond White Tiger King’s words. It had been recorded in books that this mindset was typical of his kind, serving loyally as the Buddhas’ royal mount. Other than being the Buddhas’ mount, no one had heard of them serving as other people’s mounts.

Diamond White Tiger King’s abilities had some sort of relation with the Buddha, such as the Buddha Diamond Seal. However, it did not have the pure essence of the Buddha.

“Then can you recognize what this is?”

Immediately after Qing Shui said that, he pulled out a Buddha Bright Seal and hit the Diamond White Tiger King’s body with it.

Qing Shui trained his Buddha skills until he reached an advanced level. Hence, when he used it, the tiger did not try to dodge the attack, or rather he could not have dodged it. However, at that moment, the huge tiger’s eyes were filled with surprise and anxiousness.

Qing Shui stopped in his tracks, he then quietly looked at Diamond White Tiger King.

“What else do you know?” asked the Diamond White Tiger King politely

Qing Shui then drew on the Buddha Wisdom Seal and Diamond Seal together. On top of it, he put forth the Nine Waves Great Golden Buddha Palm and Buddha Light Treasure Qi .

Diamond White Tiger King was completely astonished; he stared blankly at Qing Shui. It was not only Diamond White Tiger King, but also the rest of the group that stared at Qing Shui in disbelief. Where did all these originate from? The people who were present were not any ordinary people. There were many Buddha ancestors and what not, many ancestors who had relationships with the buddhas. Yet, even those, who have been referred to as a true Buddha, could not be compared with Qing Shui at that moment. Qing Shui was actually a true Buddha. This made those people, from the past, look like clowns compared to the current Qing Shui.

Qing Shui did not deliberately pretend to be some senior monk. His body just radiated with holy Buddha-like energy, a faint golden glow. Such that at this moment, Qing Shui appeared to be solemn; it seemed that he was possessing endless power.

“Buddha, I am willing to serve you as your mount. I am not sure if you are willing to accept,” said Diamond White Tiger King as his silhouette slowly became smaller. Now, he was probably about the same size as a dragon beast. It came to a point where he appeared like a beautiful tiger that was as big as an elephant.

Qing Shui then directly hit a sturdy seal into the head of Diamond White Tiger King. This is the holy seal that Buddhas used when taming their mounts. These types of seals were bound by contract; it is a type of miraculous holy seal. The contract was quite simple. Qing Shui wouldn’t hurt the Diamond White Tiger King purposefully, and It wouldn’t betray him.

Qing Shui’s current strength was no match for the Diamond White Tiger King. Although they hadn’t fought, Qing Shui felt that he wouldn’t be able to achieve victory against it, at least not in the meantime.

Everyone did not expect the situation to turn out the way it did, but everyone was happy nonetheless. There were also those who were full of envy. The fact that Qing Shui was able to win over Diamond White Tiger King meant that his strength had increased tremendously. The victory, which one had achieved here in Yu Royal Gate, was a big deal after all.

This lessened the feelings of stress among those few elderly people. Beihuang Fan’s worries were also lessened by a great deal.

The moment they wanted to leave with the Diamond White Tiger King, Diamond White Tiger King said to Qing Shui, ”I have some things over there, do you guys want to take a look?”

As he was listening, Qing Shui said in excitement, ”Come, let's go take a look.”

Diamond White Tiger King lived on top of the mountain. On the mountain, there was a temple. This was the Diamond White Tiger King’s territory; this was his hideout. So naturally, there would not be other beasts wandering around here.

When Qing Shui looked over at the mountain of things, it felt so surreal as everything can be found in that pile. There were armors, weapons, herbs, demonic beasts’ Taoist internal alchemy, even golden medicinal powder, battle skills, books and many more...

“I am going to take over these things, yet I do not know the origins of it. I can practically throw anything into this pile,” said Diamond White Tiger King after realizing Qing Shui’s doubts.

The items here could be transformed into an army of soldiers, resulting in huge riches.

However, Qing Shui acted as if nothing had happened, he smiled and said, ”Since we are not in a rush, let’s search together. Let’s see if we can find any good stuff. Finders keepers.”

Everyone laughed. Just as Qing Shui said, since there was no rush everyone went searching. After finding certain items, they were then categorized. Weapons and armors were thrown together. Whatever was of good quality was put together at one side.

“Qing Shui, this item is quite similar to the Divine Square Cauldron.” Beihuang Fan said to Qing Shui as she was holding onto a metal cauldron with the size of a table.

As soon as Qing Shui heard it, he rushed over to take a look.

It was really true. But the current name of the item was Divine Continent Magical Stone. Then there was an introduction on the back, enabling him to make the Divine Square Cauldrons as well as other items, even a hundred Divine Square Cauldrons were possible!

Qing Shui laughed; this visit to Yu Royal Gate was practically the biggest harvest he had ever gotten. Of course, a harvest with no purpose was still a great harvest.

Qing Shui picked it up and threw it into the realm.

His heart was filled with joy. At that moment, Qing Shui was surprised again, he saw that Diamond battle God was holding onto a beautiful small ancient cauldron.

Qing Shui laughed as he walked over and said, ”This is indeed something good.”

“Do you recognize this thing?” Diamond said in amazement.

“Come, this small ancient pagoda suits you. You will know whether it is a good thing in a while.”

Qing Shui chuckled as he drew 3 drops of Diamond’s essence blood, splitting it into 5 droplets. He then infused them to the pagoda. The halo radiating from within the small pagoda faded quickly. Diamond then looked at Qing Shui in disbelief and said, ”These things helped to increase the majority of the toughness and sturdiness of my body.”

“This is the Diamond Heavenly Fate Treasure Pagoda.” giggled Qing Shui.

“That good? I want to look too,” said Beihuang Fan, surprised. She then proceeded to rummage through the pile of items.

Right now, nobody dared to belittle the items present on the hill. Even though a majority of the items were not appealing to the eye, there were still good things such as Qing Shui’s Divine Continent Magical Stone and Diamond Heavenly Fate Treasure Pagoda found by Diamond. These findings sparked enthusiasm in the rest of the people’s eyes, hence, they all began searching again.
