Lin Moyu naturally did not pay it any mind; he saw at a glance that there was an array formation underneath.

It caused the entire Buddhist City to float in mid-air, but this array was well-hidden, and the average person would not be able to notice it.

Even if an ordinary array master came, they might not necessarily spot the clues. Four sides of the Dragon-Subduing Buddhist City had three massive staircases extending down to the ground, allowing people to enter the city.

The other side led straight into the sky, disappearing into the rosy clouds, like a ladder to the heavens.

The stairs had at least a thousand steps, making it not easy for ordinary people to ascend.

Yet, many people were still moving along the stairs. They were also performing the "three steps, one kowtow" ritual on the stairs, walking very slowly while also being very devout.

Under the illumination of the rosy clouds, the entire staircase glowed, looking just like a ladder leading to the Heavenly Kingdom.

"A mere Ancient Buddha, yet with quite a few gimmicks," Lin Moyu muttered to himself.

The Buddha of the Dragon-Subduing Buddhist Kingdom was named the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha. An Ancient Buddha corresponded to the Celestial Venerable of the Human Race.

A mere Celestial Venerable was something Lin Moyu could destroy with a wave of his hand, so he naturally would not hold him in high regard.

Lin Moyu was only walking slowly and taking more looks because it was his first time entering a Buddhist Kingdom.

Suddenly, a voice came to his ears, "Good daughter, as long as you worship the Buddha devoutly, your illness will definitely get better. The Buddha is above; he will surely be able to cure you."

A crisp voice said, "Can it really be cured?"

"Yes, it can. It definitely will!"

A mother and daughter came beside Lin Moyu. The daughter looked only about ten years old.

Her body was weak and thin, and her whole body exuded a sickly aura. Lin Moyu saw at a glance that this girl was not sick, but had been poisoned. Strange.

How could there still be poison in this Dragon-Subduing Buddhist Kingdom? Along the way, not only were the people here worshipping the Buddha devoutly, but even some creatures were worshipping the Buddha, yet the poison in this girl was not fake.

Lin Moyu cast a trace of the Power of Life onto the little girl. As the Power of Life circulated, Lin Moyu revealed a hint of surprise.

It was not ordinary poison; the poison contained a trace of someone else's power. Someone had poisoned her.

Judging by their appearance, they should not have left the Dragon-Subduing Buddhist Kingdom. In that case, someone was poisoning people inside the Dragon-Subduing Buddhist Kingdom.

Did the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha not know? As the ancestor of the Buddhist Kingdom, he naturally held control over all movements within the Buddhist Kingdom. He should not be unaware, unless the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha was not inside the Buddhist Kingdom.

Or perhaps he had tacitly allowed it. At this moment, the mother and the little girl passed by Lin Moyu. The little girl suddenly said to Lin Moyu,

"Big brother, are you also going to the Buddhist City?"

Lin Moyu was slightly stunned.

Looking at the little girl's clear and bright big eyes, he could not help but reveal a warm smile, "Yes."

The little girl said, "These stairs are very hard to climb, big brother, don't be in a rush."

"Just climb a little bit at a time. When you can't climb anymore, take a rest. If you rest a few more times, you will be able to climb up."

The little girl's words were innocent. Although she herself had been poisoned and was clearly not feeling well, her smile remained bright. Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Little sister."

"There are so many people coming and going here, why did you remind me?" The little girl looked confused.

"Because big brother has a very fragrant smell on you, it smells very good."

Lin Moyu was stunned for a moment. It was not the first time he had heard similar words.

Mist and the others had also said similar things, saying that he had a special smell on him. However, this kind of smell was not something that just anyone could smell. This kind of thing was like fate, Lin Moyu thought in his heart.

"Could it be that this child and I are fated?"

At this moment, the little girl took a few candies out of her pocket.

"Brother, this is for you. You can eat it when you are tired."

The candies were wrapped in ordinary small paper, which did not look exquisite, but it revealed the little girl's innocence.

Lin Moyu took the candies and patted her little head, "Thank you."

"What is your name, little sister? Next time, brother will also bring you something delicious." The little girl said,

"My name is Xiaomei, the 'Mei' from plum blossom." At this moment, Xiaomei's mother urged her.

Xiaomei could not help but wave at Lin Moyu, "Brother, Xiaomei will go first."

"Alright!" Lin Moyu smiled and also said goodbye to Xiaomei.

Xiaomei walked onto the stairs step by step, performing the three steps, one kowtow ritual. Her little face was full of devotion.

Her small back, facing the rosy clouds, revealed strength amidst her thin and small frame.

At this moment, Lin Moyu looked into the distance. A few more people were coming, all parents bringing their own children. Without exception, these children…

All looked like they were sick, just like that little girl. Lin Moyu looked over and discovered that these children were all poisoned, and the poison was exactly the same. This poison was not strong.

After being poisoned, it was just like being sick. These people walked up the stairs.

Heading towards the Dragon-Subduing Buddhist City, they performed the three steps, one kowtow ritual, walking extremely slowly.

They were also extremely devout. When they kowtowed, the stairs emitted a faint light.

Traces of the rosy clouds seeped into their bodies. The rosy clouds contained a bit of vitality, allowing people to receive replenishment while kowtowing.

Of course, only those who were sincere could receive such favorable treatment. As long as their heart was sincere enough, with the help of the rosy clouds, they would definitely be able to reach the top.

The rosy clouds could not only allow people to recover their physical strength but also heal some minor illnesses and pains. And that was precisely why…

These parents would bring their children here. Unfortunately, this staircase could cure minor illnesses but could not neutralize the poison. There were ten people in total.

And they were all children under ten years old, both boys and girls. "This is interesting!"

Lin Moyu felt that there was something unusual about this matter, but thinking about it, it did not seem to be any of his business.

He lifted his foot and stepped onto the stairs, walking up step by step, and soon reached the top.

Above the stairs was a huge platform, and on the platform stood a hundred-meter-tall golden Buddha statue.

Behind the Buddha statue was the gate of the Buddhist City. Lin Moyu examined the Buddha statue.

This Buddha statue held a pagoda in its right hand and pressed down on a dragon with its left hand. The Dragon-Subduing Buddhist Kingdom.

It seemed it really was related to the Dragon Race. Lin Moyu came to the side of the Buddha statue, where a stone tablet stood.

The stone tablet was inscribed with the origin of the Dragon-Subduing Buddhist Kingdom. According to what was written on it, there was once an evil dragon that wreaked havoc here.

It brought down a plague, harming many people, and was later subdued by the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha.

The Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha established the Buddhist Kingdom here to protect the peace of the region. Based on the appearance of the sculpture, Lin Moyu judged that this evil dragon should be a mixed-blood giant dragon, not even counting as a Holy Dragon.

It did not even belong to the Dragon Race. If it really were from the Dragon Race, how could it be so easily subdued?

Even if it were subdued, it would be strange if the Dragon Race did not come knocking. A mere Ancient Buddha, how could he block the Dragon Race? Lin Moyu looked at the giant dragon subdued under the Buddha statue. The sculpture was vivid and lifelike.

Vivid and lifelike, every detail was perfect. Lin Moyu had once dealt with the Dragon Race in a Small World.

Among the few Elemental Dragons he dealt with at that time, one of them happened to have an appearance that could correspond to the statue. It was a Poison Dragon among the Elemental Dragons.

Chapter 3219: The Diverse Buddhist Clan.

Lin Moyu's thoughts turned. He thought of the poison in the ten children. Now it seemed that this poison was somewhat strange.

Lin Moyu returned to the entrance of the stairs again, watching the children who were climbing up. He sensed a trace of weak Dragon Race aura from these children.

This also meant that the poison in these children came from a Poison Dragon among the Elemental Dragons, and this Poison Dragon was very likely the one that the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha had subdued.

Back then, he only subdued the Poison Dragon and did not say he killed it. This Poison Dragon was still alive.

Lin Moyu's heart stirred. He left a mark on a few of the children and then turned and entered the Buddhist City.

The Dragon-Subduing Buddhist City was very lively and looked not much different from a human city, except that everywhere in the Buddhist City, there was the aura of the Buddhist Clan.

There were also merchants from outside here. The Buddhist Clan was not a closed-off race. They also needed to communicate. Buddhist Clan cultivators also needed various materials and items, and there were restaurants here too.

One could smell the fragrance of wine and meat. The Buddhist Clan was not entirely vegetarian. Only those who had no results in their cultivation would use a vegetarian diet to show their devotion.

Genuine Buddhist Clan cultivators who had achieved success in their cultivation did not care what they ate. Wine, meat, or poisonous food—to them, it was all the same. The four elements are empty; everything is empty.

People in the Buddhist Clan also married and had children. If they did not marry and reproduce, the Buddhist Clan would have gone extinct long ago. Don't even talk about any inheritance.

Lin Moyu found a restaurant and casually ordered two dishes.

He sipped his wine slowly, while his ears twitched slightly. In an instant, every movement in the entire city was under his control. The Dragon-Subduing Buddhist City…

Did not have a large population, numbering about one million. The Dragon-Subduing Buddhist Kingdom was not considered a large Buddhist Kingdom either.

In the entire Buddhist Kingdom, besides the Dragon-Subduing Buddhist City, there were four small cities, plus scattered villages.

The entire Dragon-Subduing Buddhist Kingdom had a population of less than ten million, which was not even one-tenth of those large Buddhist Kingdoms.

But the Buddhist Clan did not calculate it this way. They claimed that every blade of grass and every tree had Buddha nature and could all become Buddhas.

Therefore, any creature with spiritual intelligence, including spirit beasts, grass, and trees, would be counted by them. Thus, it was said that there were endless creatures in the Buddhist Kingdom, ranging from tens of millions to over a billion. In fact, how could there be so many?

Those plants and trees that had gained some spiritual intelligence were not really anything. However, looking at it from another angle, the entire Buddhist Kingdom was shrouded in Buddha light and the sound of chanting scriptures all year round.

Whether it was the Buddha light or the scriptures, both contained Buddhist power. It did indeed help to awaken the spiritual intelligence of plants and trees, but it was also easy to bewitch people's hearts.

As long as they were plants, trees, or spirit beasts that had been enlightened by Buddhist power, they would inevitably convert to the Buddhist Clan and become a member of the Buddhist Clan.

With the accumulation of time, as time went on, the power of the Buddhist Clan would naturally become stronger and stronger. According to what Lin Moyu knew, within the Buddhist Clan, there were tribes composed of plant spirits, and their strength was also quite considerable.

For this reason, the Hundred Herbs Alliance had once had conflicts with the Buddhist Clan. In the beginning, they tried to take those plant creatures back to the Hundred Herbs Alliance, but they eventually discovered that the plant creatures enlightened by Buddhist power were only loyal to the Buddhist Clan in their hearts and could not join the Hundred Herbs Alliance at all. Eventually…
