Chapter 1821
Soon after that, Fade immediately took Heidey and Gorvyn away, signaling them to stay quiet.
As soon as the baptism had ended, the entire valley seemed to be more still. Everyone became
quieter as if they were robots lining up for food and reciting sutras in an orderly manner.
Without a doubt, this orderly manner seemed very chilling as if they had no emotions at all.
Just like that, another day passed and the day to officially open the secret area arrived. However, it
was obviously conceived as the day to officially be the disciples of Dharma Dahnbar.
Everyone woke up early the next morning, took baths, and changed into new clothes. Soon after
that, everyone walked along Namuchia Lake and started to advance into the abyss.
As Namuchia was a vast area, the group followed along theke for about one hour before finally
stopping in front of an old building.
Fade fixed his eyes on the building. It turned out to be an old temple. The entire temple was built of
stones while the mottled marks on it showed the passing of time. The golden roof atop it was
dazzling under the sunlight.
Dharma Dahnbar stopped before the temple and turned to the crowd. Then, he said with a stern
expression, "I''ll now bring you into our temple. This is a sacred ce, so there will be no chatter and
noise. Everyone is to obey these rules. Just obey and follow ording to my orders. If you disobey,
your eptance into this apprenticeship will be cancelled, understood?"
"Understood!" Everyone answered in unison.
Dharma Dahnbar nodded and immediately waved his hand. "Everyone, line up. Let''s go in!" He
said.
Everyone soon entered the building with the Tsochin leading the line.
Dharma Dahnbar deliberately paused for a moment and came to Fade. "You''ll temporarily move
with everyone else. When the timees, my master, Tulku Kahmul, will appear and then you''ll
pledge your loyalty, got it?"
"I understand!" Fade nodded and followed the group as they entered the temple.
Upon entering the temple, he couldn''t help but sense darkness falling upon him. This caused him to
require a few seconds to adjust himself.
The temple didn''t appear to be big from the outside. However, as soon as they entered it, they
realized that the interior was muchrger than expected. Even if hundreds of people were to stand
there, it still made it seem empty.
"Parts of this temple must be underground," Fade thought to himself as he saw this.
Soon after that, he quietly observed the surroundings around the temple.
A huge Buddha statue and colors of red, white, and gold were painted everywhere. The air was
filled with the smell of joss sticks which caused a thick and misty environment.
After passing through the main hall that was filled with statues of Buddha, they continued to walk
deeper into the temple. Soon, they finally entered a room that waspletely closed and had no
windows.
As soon as they entered the room, Fade sensed a strange feeling. An ufortable feeling rose in
his heart.
There wasn''t much light in the room while a prayer wheel was located on the left side of the wall in
the room. The golden- colored paint above the room was very mottled. There even seemed to be
traces of red amidst the fragments as if they were fresh blood stains.
There was an exquisite painting with drawings of the different types of Buddhas on the right wall.
Finally, there was a one- meter tall altar by the front. The top of the altarid many types of devices
including flutes and rice bowls made out of bones.
Everyone looked curiously at the items around them.
"These paintings are exquisite!" Heidey couldn''t help but say.
Gorvyn looked over to the paintings on the left side of the wall. "These are Thang-ga paintings.
They''re all very beautiful and striking," he said in a proud manner.
"Thang-ga paintings! I''ve previously seen them on the inte. During ancient times, high- ranked
monks would use the skins of people to make them. Wouldn''t this be..."Heidey said.
She said casually and didn''t find anything wrong. However, Fade''s heart couldn''t help but sink as
soon as he heard this. He stared at the Thang-ga paintings and reached out and touched them.
As soon as he touched them, Fade''s eyes immediately turned cold. The materials of these Thang-
ga paintings were really simr to human skin.
"These people..." A chill ran through his heart.
Gorvyn smiled and said to Heidey, "Heidey, what are you talking about? Thang-ga paintings only
existed a long time ago. We''re now in modern times. Why would the high-ranked monks do these
kinds of things?" "You''re right. I''m just saying," she replied.
At that moment, Dharma Dahnbar entered the room. Fade immediately eyed the both of them,
instructing them to keep quiet.
Dharma Dahnbar instructed while a few Isochins came forward to separate Fade and the others into
four different groups. Then, they instructed them to stand at all four sides of the altar.
Soon after that, Dharma Dahnbar briefly meditated and finally nodded his head.
The Tsochins then instructed everyone to walk towards the altar and stand on it.
It immediately became very crowded when hundreds of people stood on the altar. At this moment,
Fade thought about the sacrificial event and became even more cautious. Soon after that, he took
Heidey and Gorvyn to stand at the side of the altar with a cold expression on his face.
Dharma Dahnbar once again recited a few more scriptures and spoke in a loud voice, "Now, we''ll
begin with the official ceremony for your apprenticeship eptance. No matter what happens, do
not step down from the altar. Otherwise, your apprenticeship will be canceled, understood?"
"Understood!" The crowd shouted.
"Alright, that''s good." Dharma Dahnbar nodded his head and instructed the crowd.
Soon after that, each Tsochin took out a jug and poured it around the edges of the altar.
A yellow liquid flowed into the ditches surrounding the altar. As the crowd was questioning the
substance, a loud pop was heard. At that moment, the liquid instantly caught fire and surrounded
the altar.
It turned out that the liquid was oil.
With the light of the fire, the entire room lit up. Everyone could see the room much more clearly.
The prayer wheels and Thang- ga paintings on both sides of the wall seemed even more vibrant.
They even seemed to really be alive under the light of the torches.
Fade was even more surprised when the white lines on the floor were put together to form a
complicated picture.
At that moment, the mes burned the edges, and the picture became clearer.
Soon after that, Dharma Dahnbar waved his hands, and ten more monks in red robes with y jars
appeared as they walked in.
The y jars contained sand of different colors.
All the monks stood by the four corners of the altar with sincere expressions. They poured the sand
along the lines of the picture as if they were drawing.

Their movements were fast but urate and a huge picture with different colors of sand was rapidly
formed on the ground.
