?Chapter 367: Chapter 329: Demon Blade Shakes Tangshan! _2 Chapter 367: Chapter 329: Demon Blade Shakes Tangshan! _2 Chen Yuan set down the jade scroll in his hand, his gaze flickering uncertainly. According to the introductions within, this so-called Big Buddha was indeed quite extraordinary.
Legend had it that more than two hundred years ago, when the Great Jin was first established, a Buddhist monk from the Western Regions came to the Central Plains and moved a Buddha statue from a thousand miles away using earth-shattering celestial methods.
The statue stood over two hundred zhang tall, which is more than six hundred meters high, carved from Qing stone. All who saw it were undoubtedly stunned.
Every festival, numerous devotees would go there to burn incense and pray to the Buddha for peace.
As for why the legendary monk had placed the Big Buddha there, there was a rumor that beneath the Buddha, a peerless fierce beast was suppressed.
This fierce beast devoured humans and had slaughtered a great city hundreds of years ago. The monk, while traveling through the Central Plains, heard this rumor and confirmed it himself before suppressing it with the Buddha.
Of course, this was just a rumor, never conclusively verified.
Even in the annals of exotic tales, it was merely marked as a ‘rumor’.
In the speculations of many, it was actually the Buddhist sect planning to spread their teachings to Shuzhou and Blood State, using this place as a bridgehead, only that because Shushan did not allow it,
no temple was ever established, leaving only a Buddha statue there.
Besides that, no one knew even the Buddhist title of that legendary monk.
Relatively speaking, Chen Yuan was more inclined to the latter belief.
It was well-known that Shushan was the most powerful force in Shuzhou, and its fame also derived from this. Even the imperial court wouldn’t oppress Shushan too harshly.
Swordmen, known for their integrity, were truly daring people who would rebel at the slightest disagreement. Along with Shushan’s massive power, it was normal that Buddhism had not succeeded in spreading their doctrine there.
Moreover, nearby lay another stronger obstruction, Blood State.
