Chapter 262 Immortal Monk
But if Chi Cang is targeted by the gravedigger, then Lian Juechen will also help when it's time to help.
However, the relationship between them has not yet reached the level of fighting for each other. This is something both parties know and understand tacitly.
At most, you owe favors and karma and wait until the future to pay them back.
The karma between human beings in the immortal realm is still very important, and it may come in handy in the future.
This is true for Lian Juechen, but it is nothing to Chi Cang and Liu Shen. Their background is not comparable to that of Lian Juechen. One is one of the Ten Fierce who can fight the Immortal King, and the other is once aloof. The Immortal King giants all have great backgrounds.
It is foreseeable that the two of them will return to their peak or even surpass it, and it will not take too long. Lian Juechen still needs to work hard to attack the Immortal King, and whether he can succeed is unknown.
"In that case, two fellow Taoists, let's set off immediately to go to that land of opportunity.
It was quite early when I got the news, but it was probably already stormy there, so I had to get there earlier to avoid missing the opening time. "Lian Juechen said.
Chi Cang and Liu Shen nodded, then left this small world.
Along the torn boundary wall, they rushed into the desolate abandoned universe.
This is the ancient road leading to the Boundary Sea. There are so many abandoned ancient worlds. There is no avenue of heaven and earth, no life essence, and some are just withered and void.
In a sense, the ancient road is equivalent to a tributary of the boundary sea. It is composed of many abandoned and broken ancient boundaries, which is equivalent to the boundary river.
However, in terms of scale, it is as insignificant compared to the Boundary Sea as a mote of dust compared to the galaxy. Moreover, it is not connected with the Boundary Sea and is intercepted by the dam boundary.
Traveling through the vast and ethereal void space, the broken star skeletons, floating continents, etc. are rapidly retreating, giving people the illusion that time is flying.
Not long after, the three of them came to a dark area, which was made up of many abandoned ancient worlds. It was so dilapidated that there was no star in the universe, so naturally there was no light.
There were some floating giant objects in the deep sky, which was a dark continent. Lian Juechen, leading Chi Cang and Liu Shen, approached one of them.
It is very huge, countless times bigger than the stars. On the land, the towering mountains are one after another, huge and boundless, as if they are made up of stars one after another. Because the light above the continent is dim and unclear, those mountains are difficult to see. It looks like a ferocious black forest when you go up there, and it's like stepping into hell on earth when you get here.
Before they actually landed, the three of them sensed many powerful and strange qi forces hidden in the void. Moreover, strands of spiritual consciousness extended over and landed on them, exploring them unscrupulously.
In this regard, Lian Juechen and Chicang Liushen both acted very forcefully and directly sent out their spiritual consciousness to collide with the incoming person.
"Boom!"
Some mountains on the mainland were affected. In an instant, rocks and clouds collapsed, and the ruined peaks collapsed with a huge roar.
In the silent dark continent, such a sound is very abrupt.
In just a moment, the three of them felt dozens of eyes sweeping over them from unknown places.
"It's really insidious. You did it deliberately to make us the target of public criticism." Lian Juechen frowned and whispered.
However, he was mentally prepared for this kind of thing. The competition on the ancient road was so cruel, and everyone hoped that his competitors would be robbed.
Chi Cang's face was expressionless, and his whole body was filled with chaotic haze, which not only covered his body shape, but also prevented the prying eyes of external spiritual consciousness.
The same is true for Liu Shen.
They quickly passed through the majestic mountains and approached their destination.
During this period, someone with ulterior motives released their spiritual power and secretly rushed towards them with sinister intentions, hoping to make a big noise and attract the attention of the immortals, so they could target them.
Chi Cang and others knew their intentions, and although they were very angry, they could only endure it for now.
After all, there are many forces entrenched here, including a quasi-immortal king. If you stand on the cusp of the storm, you will be shattered to pieces if you are not careful.
Fortunately, the tempters are all at the True Immortal level, and the most powerful ones are only in the later stages of True Immortal. Creatures at the Quasi-Immortal King level will not end up, and Chi Cang and the others can handle it.
The dark ridge looked like a crouching wild beast. Chi Cang glanced all the way down and saw many strange plants and countless creatures living among them.
This continent is a relatively complete world, similar to the eight realms of the lower world, which provides the necessary conditions for the survival of living beings.
Chi Cang even saw the shadow of humanoid creatures in it. They were each wearing unknown animal skins, hunting, and working hard for the survival of the group and themselves. This situation reminded Chi Cang of the stone village in the wilderness, where the People have made a living by hunting for generations.
"This is also a small world full of vitality. I wonder if the opening of the Land of Chance will disturb the peace here." Chi Cang sighed.
He could tell that although this small world was a little dark, the energy was not thin and there were many races living here.
He even saw a vast country where intelligent beings created a social order, just like in most ancient lands.
This place is located in an abandoned universe, isolated from the world, and countless species live peacefully.
Now, due to chance, many true immortals have arrived. Once a conflict occurs and a war breaks out, it will undoubtedly be a devastating blow to this small world.
"Brother Chi is worried about the same thing as me, but there are some things that we can't control. The only thing we can do is not to destroy this place, or to help, and there is nothing else we can do.
However, by chance involving the Immortal King, the most intense disputes may not reach this realm. "Lian Juechen said, he has rich experience in exploring secret realms. After all, he has not wasted his millions of years.
"hope so."
Chi Cang nodded, the most powerful creature in this world is only at the Zhanwo level, and cannot stop the fluctuations caused by the battle between true immortals.
It would be best if all the battles took place in the Land of Chance, where the Immortal King was involved and must be isolated from the outside world.
Not long after, they arrived near the legendary place of opportunity.
No matter how vast this small world is, it is only one step away from beings at the level of true immortals.
The reason why they walked slowly was because other true immortals were interfering.
The three of them stood in the void, hiding their energy and looking forward quietly.
At this moment, the surrounding void seemed calm and without any fluctuations, but in fact, there were many terrifying and powerful people hiding there. Some of them were predators, some were fishermen, and some were gravediggers with terrifying origins.
They stare at opportunities like hungry beasts.
Where the powerful eyes were focused, under the dim sky, a temple stood quietly on the mountainside, glowing slightly, peaceful and peaceful.
You can faintly hear the tapping sound of wooden fish, the hazy Zen feeling, and the murmuring of the Buddha's voice make people's minds involuntarily peaceful.
The quiet void and the gentle breeze seemed like the last calm before the storm.
The peaceful temple and the wolf-like sight of the outside world are like two completely different worlds.
How powerful is the gaze of a true immortal? The weak Buddha light from the temple alone cannot resist it, and the situation inside is clearly visible.
An old monk wearing a gold-rimmed cassock sat quietly in the attic of the temple, clasping his hands and whispering, as if he was chanting Buddhist scriptures.
Suddenly, the continuous sound of wooden fish stopped. Normally, such sound of wooden fish would last all night long.
The old monk opened his eyes slightly, but immediately closed them slowly, still chanting Buddhist scriptures.
Not long after, a young novice monk ran in with a panicked expression, fear and panic in his eyes.
"Master, Big Buddha...the corners of the Big Buddha's eyes shed tears of blood..." The little novice monk looked frightened. He was responsible for knocking the wooden fish. He sat quietly in front of the Big Buddha in the temple every night. While knocking the wooden fish, he chanted Buddhist scriptures. This can wash and purify the soul.
But today, the usually unresponsive statue of the Buddha shed tears of blood, which was extremely scary. This was undoubtedly an ominous sign.
"Why are you panicking? From this point of view, your meditation practice these days has been in vain." The old monk whispered, without any trace of panic.
"But... Master, I saw a Buddhist scripture that said that if the Buddha sheds blood and tears, it means that the temple will be destroyed..." The little novice monk calmed down a lot, but he was still in shock.
That Buddhist scripture was left by the temple's former enlightened monk. It is said that he made this prophecy at the cost of his last life force before his death.
For countless years, monks of all generations have read that Buddhist scripture and know this prophecy.
However, the Buddha's blood and tears never happened, so the monks ignored it.
Unexpectedly, today, the legendary prophecy really came true. The dead Buddha shed two lines of blood and tears, which made people's hearts palpitate, as if a disaster was imminent.
"Alas...has this day finally come?" The old monk didn't explain anything, but just let out a long sigh.
The young novice monk was intelligent and immediately guessed from the master's reaction that this prophecy might be true.
Thinking of the terrifying scene of the peaceful and peaceful temple turning into ashes, the young novice became frightened.
"Don't panic, this is a fate destined for this temple." The old monk reassured.
His words seemed to have a kind of magic power, which gradually calmed down the little novice's panicked heart.
"Master, what should we do?" The little novice monk was sad. The temple where he had been living would be destroyed. Where should they go?
The old monk smiled.
"The world is so big, where can't we go? Wherever there is a Buddha, it is our monk's home. Even if we are in this world of mortals, we can stay here."
Before the little novice monk could speak, the old monk continued: "I have found a home for you. You can go down the mountain immediately. It will be difficult to understand the true meaning of Buddha unless you enter the world of mortals."
When the young novice monk heard this, he was a little shocked. The master had already found a family for him? Can he predict the future?
"Master, what about you?" He thought about this question and went down the mountain. Where is the master? Why didn't the master take him down the mountain with him?
The old monk shook his head.
"Destined cause and effect, there is no point in running away or hiding. I will stay and witness some things."
"Ah? Master, the temple is going to be destroyed. It must be some kind of terrible disaster. If you stay, wouldn't it be a disaster?"
"Don't worry about me, just go down the mountain with peace of mind. You and I are master and disciple. Our fate is not broken, and we will see each other again." The old monk said with a smile.
"Master..." The little novice wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by the old monk, who urged him to go down the mountain.
The young novice monk had no choice but to wipe away his tears, pack his bags, and head down the mountain according to the address given by the old monk.
When I saw someone coming down the mountain, the being in the void had deep eyes, and dangerous energy was surging.
Opportunities are about to open up, and they don't allow any accidents to happen.
The little novice who was jogging along suddenly felt a chill running down his spine and his body became stiff on the spot.
At this moment, a peaceful Buddha's name came out of the temple, and the little novice's body immediately returned to normal. He turned back in shock and looked at the temple where he had lived for ten years, knowing that his master had helped him block the disaster.
"master……"
"Go!" The old monk's words came out, and the young novice was reluctant to leave, with tears in his eyes, but he could only turn around and leave.
The old monk said that they still had time to meet again, and the young novice firmly believed in the old monk's words.
Soon, a thin figure disappeared into the darkness.
"The donor's anger is too strong. He doesn't even spare a mortal who has not practiced spiritual practice. It is really harmful to the harmony of heaven and earth." The old monk's voice came out and resounded through the void.
Not long after, a sneer suddenly sounded in the cold and silent void.
“Haha, it’s true that there is a unicorn hidden in the mountains. I didn’t expect that there is an unfathomable immortal monk hidden in this barren land.
You are living in seclusion here just for the opportunity of the Immortal King, right? After so many years, you might have already succeeded. "The creature in the dark said with evil intentions, trying to make the creatures present attack.
However, no one is a fool. Those who come here are all extremely smart people. Otherwise, it is impossible to gain a foothold in the cruel ancient path and become a strong person in the immortal path.
"Whether you get it or not, the donors have their own judgment. When the Buddhist world opens, poor monks will also enter." The old monk responded calmly.
"That's natural. You are different from that little monk." Another creature said.
When the little novice monk left, Zhu Qiang used his spiritual consciousness to check it several times and confirmed that there was nothing important on him before letting him go.
In the past, people used to hide things from the sky, and when they were wrong, the biggest opportunity was taken away without anyone knowing. Therefore, all powerful people were very cautious.
Chi Cang and the other three were speechless, and they did not expect that there was actually an immortal monk hidden in this small world where the strongest person on the surface was only the Zhanwo level.
He committed himself to such an inconspicuous temple, naturally he came here for the opportunity. No one knows what kind of understanding he has about the place of opportunity.
"This immortal monk has a good heart. Maybe we can seek cooperation with him." Lian Juechen said to Chi Cang and Liu Shen through a message transmission.
"In the lineage of immortal monks, there are either great virtuous monks or great demons. This person must belong to the line of great virtuous monks.
However, at this moment, he has attracted all the attention, and uniting with him will easily arouse people's fear. Let's wait until the opportunity opens before entering it. Chi Cang said thoughtfully.
In the original nine heavens, there was a lineage of immortal monks. Chi Cang had dealt with this lineage and knew some things.
