Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Tang Feiyan had only been momentarily intrigued by the "underground network."

When Eric walked towards the martial arts bookshelf, she immediately followed him.

Hearing Eric's comment, she glanced at the parchment in his hand and then turned to ask Luoli, "What is this?"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Luoli, who had already noticed the parchment in Eric's hand, promptly replied, "This is the 'Yin-Yang Union Great Compassion Mantra,' a secret tradition of our Sun-Moon Sister Deities lineage!"

Tang Feiyan blinked in confusion and asked, "Eric, did you find a problem in this technique?"

"That's right!" Eric nodded and glanced at Luoli and Sun Clouds. Without hiding anything, he shared his speculations.

After hearing his explanation, Tan Ailing and Tang Feiyan exchanged glances, while Luoli and Sun Clouds remained unfazed, clearly already aware of these issues and completely unconcerned.

Tang Feiyan looked at Luoli, who was blushing and gazing at Eric with infatuation. She frowned slightly and asked, "Eric, is there any way to fix the fatal flaws in the 'Yin-Yang Union Great Compassion Mantra'?"

Eric shook his head and said honestly, "This technique is likely the collective effort of several generations of great minds. To make the correct adjustments without affecting its efficacy in a short time, I don't have the confidence to do it."

Tang Feiyan, undeterred, wrapped her arms around Eric's and said sweetly, "You can definitely figure something out, right, Eric?"

Eric looked at Tang Feiyan, understanding that her concern was driven not only by kindness but also by jealousy. After all, knowing that a stunning woman was coveting her man would make any woman unsettled...

Seeing the hopeful look in Tang Feiyan's eyes, Eric reluctantly said, "I'll find time to elevate Luoli and Sun Clouds to pre-heaven experts first. Although it won't completely eliminate the side effects of this technique, it will at least remove the physical risks and ensure they live long lives."

Despite a hint of disappointment, Tang Feiyan was delighted and kissed Eric on the cheek. Luoli and Sun Clouds knelt to the ground, giving thanks. Even as devout believers ready to sacrifice for the Living Buddha, they were overjoyed to hear their lives would be spared.

After helping them up, Eric continued to browse the martial arts manuals. After a while, he frowned slightly and said, "Is this all there is?"

Luoli understood and replied, "These are just the manuals I am permitted to read. The techniques and powers reserved for the Living Buddha are stored in a separate secret room."

"Take me there!"

"Yes, Rinpoche!" Luoli bowed and walked to a bookshelf. She knelt down, reached at the base of the shelf, and pressed a hidden spot. With a soft click, the bookshelf, standing against the wall, opened like a pair of sliding doors, revealing an electronic door and a touchscreen. Enjoy more content from empire

"Rinpoche, this secret room can only be opened by you. Please place your hand on the screen for the system to verify your identity..."

Eric did as instructed, and as the electronic voice said, "Welcome, our great and omnipotent Rinpoche," the electronic door silently slid open.

Eric stepped in. When Tang Feiyan tried to follow, Luoli blocked her with an outstretched arm. "I'm sorry, Lady Consort, but only the Rinpoche can enter this secret room."

Tang Feiyan huffed, about to speak, but Tan Ailing held her back and gave Eric a meaningful look. Eric, who was about to say something, instead nodded and walked into the secret room. After he entered, the electronic door closed silently behind him.

The room was about forty square meters, with white marble floors, walls, and ceiling, and energy-saving lights in the corners making it as bright as day. Besides a meditation cushion and a few parchment scrolls, there was nothing else in the room.

Eric sat on the cushion and began examining the scrolls. Although there were seventeen scrolls, they documented only four techniques or mystical powers.

The first was the "Joyous Meditation."

After studying it, Eric realized it had four methods of cultivation: "Compliance, Harmony, Resistance, and Stability." It wasn't necessary to practice it with a Sun-Moon Sister Deities representative who cultivated the "Yin-Yang Union Great Compassion Mantra."

Though Eric had already practiced the "Yin-Yang Harmony Health Technique," he was still very interested in the "Joyous Meditation."

The former could only improve physical constitution, but the latter could enhance mental strength.

If he could combine the two, he could improve both physical and mental power during intimate moments with Tang Feiyan and the others, saving time spent on meditation for other things...

The second technique was the "Great Thousand Worlds Myriad Wonders Method," not recognized by Eric as his "father's."

It was said that the wisdom of the Buddha transcended time and space, knowing the conditions of all beings in the "three thousand" different spaces.

The "Great Thousand Worlds Myriad Wonders Method" trained this kind of "wisdom."

Modern science has established that humans live in a three-dimensional space, also called three-dimensional space.

Theoretically, there are also four-dimensional space, five-dimensional space, and even infinite-dimensional spaces.

Combining these scientific theories with his spatial magic and the "Great Thousand Worlds Myriad Wonders Method," Eric thought he might one day open a portal that ordinary people could use, fulfilling Tang Feiyan's dream of visiting Celestia!

The third technique is the "Thirteen Golden Techniques That Do Not Transgress the Periphery," also known as the "Sakya Thirteen Golden Techniques."

This technique cultivates the "Arhat Golden Body," emphasizing the sanctification of the physical body.

The "Seeing One's True Nature Clearly, the Golden Body of an Arhat," practiced by the secret guards of the Living Buddha, is derived from one of these golden techniques.

However, its power and efficacy are far inferior to the full set of the "Thirteen Golden Techniques That Do Not Transgress the Periphery."

Eric was also very interested in this technique. Although his physical constitution had greatly improved through the practice of the "Yin-Yang Harmony Health Technique," his body's resistance to blows was almost negligible compared to other experts.

To ensure he could remain undefeated in any situation, Eric desperately wanted a technique that could significantly enhance his physical defense without affecting his magic. Now, it seemed his wish was coming true...

The fourth technique is the "Path Fruit Method," the most unique technique practiced by the Sakya Living Buddha.

There are three levels of cultivation in the "Path Fruit Method."

The first level is to eliminate "non-virtue," which means to stop committing evil deeds and focus on doing good, leading to rebirth in the "Three Good Realms" in the next life.

The second level is to eradicate "self-attachment," which is the attachment to all tangible or intangible things. Once self-attachment is eradicated, suffering and pain cannot arise, and one can be freed from the cycle of rebirth and suffering. The third level is to eliminate "all views," reaching the state of a wise person.

This technique, claimed to be the foremost mystical power of Sakya, left Eric completely bewildered. He understood that no matter how smart he was, it was impossible to comprehend this technique without in-depth study and analysis of Buddhist teachings. Although he couldn't understand it, Eric could at least confirm that this technique would be of no help in reconstructing his mother's physical body. After reaching this conclusion, he decided not to waste any more mental effort on it...

Eric glanced around the empty room, sighed softly, and left. As soon as he stepped out of the secret room, he saw Tan Ailing and the other three women gathered around the computer, talking.

Tang Feiyan, smiling, asked Sun Clouds, "Yuncai, where do you usually go online? Have you ever visited any adult sites?"

Sun Clouds' expression remained unchanged, and she responded with a sweet smile, "How can I compare to you, Lady Consort? I've been attending six online schools, and my courses are quite tight. I don't have the time for such things."

Tang Feiyan's expression stiffened slightly, and she said with a smile, "What do you mean by 'like me'? I haven't visited any adult sites either... People who go online rarely don't chat. Yuncai, you must chat too, right? Is your chat partner male or female? Have you ever had a video chat?"

"Lady Consort, you can't compare your lifestyle with mine," Sun Clouds said with a sweet smile. "I'm entirely devoted to Rinpoche!"

Tang Feiyan's face twitched slightly, about to retort, but Tan Ailing interjected, "Yuncai, you wouldn't disclose any inappropriate information to outsiders while online, would you?"

Whether it was because of Tan Ailing's inherently cold demeanor or Eric's special affection for her, Sun Clouds appeared more respectful towards her than Tang Feiyan. "Please rest assured, Lady Consort. We absolutely do not!"

Luoli also chimed in, "The underground palace's intelligent system has an interception program that not only blocks the palace computers from accessing certain websites but also prevents them from sending out information. In other words, in the underground palace, you can only look and listen but cannot write or speak."

Watching the subtle conflict among the four women, Eric shook his head slightly and strode out.

Hearing footsteps, the four women turned their heads. Tang Feiyan pounced on Eric, wrapping herself around him, and asked, "Eric, why did you take so long? We've been waiting for you for two hours! So, what did you find in the secret room? Did you choose any of the Living Buddha's esoteric techniques?"

Eric patted Tang Feiyan's perky bottom and, before Luoli and her disciples could greet him, directly asked, "Isn't it said that Sakya's collection of techniques and esoteric arts is the best in Tibetan Buddhism? Why were there only four techniques inside?"

Luoli was slightly taken aback and bowed, "It is said that our Sakya possesses all the esoteric techniques of the Tibetan Living Buddhas. However, more than seven hundred years ago, when the holy Kublai Khan transcended, he sealed away most of them..."
