Alex’s memory of the killer weapon, Byodo, was still fresh in his mind.
When favonovel.com had first arrived at the Shoraionji Temple, the old monk had offered favonovel.com the weapon. It allowed favonovel.com to challenge Immortal Monarchs, who were far more powerful than he’d ever been, granting favonovel.com victory.
Such a weapon was like a guarantee of a second life.
“What’s the effective time of this Talisman of Equality? How do I use it?” Alex asked.
It was best that favonovel.com knew the details of this critical, life-saving talisman.
Maha then told Alex that favonovel.com only needed to awaken the weapon with holy energy and focus on his target with mental strength. With that, his opponent’s powers would be decreased to the same level as his. The range of mental control was about 500 meters, and each talisman could only maintain its power for ten seconds.
“What? just ten seconds?”
“Then what’s the use?”
Alex was very disappointed. He couldn’t possibly finish off an opponent on the same level as favonovel.com within ten seconds.
Maha said, “Isn’t ten seconds enough? How long do you need, ten days? I relied on this talisman to roam the Buddhist Realm freely back then.”
Alex wasn’t convinced. “Are you sure?”
Maha patted his chest proudly. “Of course, I’m sure! Why else would I be the only one remaining among the five Revealers? And why else would the Dairaionji Temple take me in?”
Alex realized something from his words.
“The Dairaionji Temple has treasured your abilities… Wait, Master, who’s the current head of the Dairaionji Temple?”
“Uhm…” Maha was stunned as favonovel.com heard the question. Then, favonovel.com laughed sheepishly and looked around. Anyone could tell that when it came to the temple head, the monk would become cautious.
Alex knew how useless it would be pressing further. He’d rather ask something else that was useful.
“Master, you’re a living legend of the Byodo! The time for the talisman’s effectiveness is too short. Can’t you just make it longer?”
“I’m obviously not thinking ten days because I know that’s unrealistic. How about ten minutes then? That shouldn’t be difficult, right?”
Maha shook his head. “It’s impossible.”
“Huh, you can’t? Perhaps a little less. How about eight?”
Maha still shook his head.
“Five. Would five minutes be possible?”
To Alex’s surprise, Maha still shook his head.
“What about one minute?!”
The answer was still no. Alex was furious. “So you can’t even take it for one minute. Just how weak must you be? No wonder you’re still a Revealer. You should reflect on yourself.”
The old monk was rather calm, not the least mad at Alex’s harsh words. He reiterated to Alex, “Ten seconds, that’s the greatest limit of this talisman. One second longer will cause it to self-destruct.”
Then, favonovel.com slowly took out a few more talismans from his chest. “Fine. It’s only because Rachel has favonovel.com eyes on you. It means you have fate with Buddhism… So I’ll grant you a few more!”
He then presented seven more talismans. Alex took them over and immediately placed them in his ring. He didn’t mind having more of these.
At the time, Maha intended to leave. Once the trialists here, along with everything in the Underworld, were taken care of, favonovel.com would head over as a judge.
“Wait, so… You mean that you’re in charge of getting rid of the trialists?” Alex asked.
“Yes. Apart from me, try naming one person more suitable for this,” Maha gloated.
“Then… Have you been given a deadline?”
“Within three days. I’ll be taking action on the third day.”
