The jade railings and carved pillars, with flying dragons hugging the pillars, are majestic and majestic. Standing in the hall, you feel as if you are floating between heaven and earth, a drop in the vast sea.
To put it bluntly, it feels too oppressive.
Yes, this is the Kunlun Temple.
Lin Chen felt uneasy and behaved himself.
Because from the moment he entered the Kunlun Temple, he felt like there were invisible eyes that could see him inside and out, but Lin Chen was completely unable to sense the existence of anyone other than his master.
"Palace Master, I bring my disciple Lin Chen to see me." Venerable Kunlun bowed towards the unknown void.
Finished!
The void moved, and the entire hall became abstract.
"kindness!"
Lin Chen seemed to be trapped in a chaotic sky, his body and mind almost distorted.
He was actually going to meet the Master of Kunlun Palace. Lin Chen never thought that it would be so easy to pass the test, so he kept his mind steady and allowed the space to change, but his mind remained calm and motionless.
It was as if, after being displaced in time and space, I suddenly became enlightened.
When Lin Chen woke up, he was shocked.
There was a small field in the mountains, a thatched cottage, and a pond. It felt like a hermit farmhouse. But what shocked Lin Chen was that the spiritual source here was as vast as the sea. It was much smaller than the master's spiritual domain.
I don’t know how many times it has become stronger.
It feels like a holy place where masters from other worlds retreat.
Although it is not as auspicious and colorful as Lin Chen imagined, it has the charm of returning to nature.
Suddenly, an ethereal divine voice came from afar: "You are a genius that Elder Kunlun highly praises and praises. You are a rare talent that has never been seen in the ages. But according to my opinion, there is nothing surprising about you."
Looking around, Lin Chen saw an old man in white robe sitting cross-legged on a stone platform beside the pond.
A crane with slightly raised hair and a faint charm all over his body is sitting cross-legged fishing, as quiet as a rock, as if integrated with the entire space, like a fairy in a painting, an ancient well with no waves, mysterious and ethereal.
"Well…"
Lin Chen was extremely shocked.
The immortal man was clearly right in front of him, but Lin Chen didn't see anything. There was no trace of when the immortal man appeared.
But what shocked Lin Chen was that even though this immortal man was right in front of his eyes, he still gave people the feeling that he was far away and out of reach.
Whether it is virtual or real, it is mysterious and unpredictable, and it also reveals an invisible sense of oppression.
Lin Chen was depressed and could only feel that the Taoist Immortal in front of him was like an endless abyss that could not be detected. Even when facing the three saints of the Holy Soul Clan, he had never felt this way before.
"Meet the Palace Master."
Lord Kunlun bowed respectfully and did not forget to send a message to remind Lin Chen: "Xiao Chen, this is the Master of Kunlun Palace, the Holy Lord Qiankun. You must not be rude!"
Lin Chen woke up when he heard the sound, and went to pay homage in fear: "Brother...disciple Lin Chen, I want to pay my respects to the palace master."
"The three holy souls are as profound as me. But you are so rude when you meet me. I really don't know how you persuaded the three holy souls? How did you get such luck from the supreme power of the evil clan?
"Sage Qiankun immediately questioned.
"disciple…"
Lin Chen was speechless.
Seeing that Lin Chen was speechless, Holy Lord Qiankun said calmly: "Come here and accompany me to fish."
fishing?
Lin Chen was stunned and didn't know what to do.
"Why are you still standing there? This is the palace master's appreciation for you." Venerable Kunlun reminded him angrily. He always thought Lin Chen was witty, so why did he become so confused when he saw the palace master?
"yes…"
Lin Chen woke up and was flattered.
After all, not everyone has this privilege to be able to fish at the same table as the Holy Master Qiankun.
Lin Chen was trembling and stepped forward weakly, feeling at a loss and feeling uncomfortable.
But no matter how close he was to the Holy Lord Qiankun, Lin Chen always felt that he was far away. This kind of artistic conception was completely beyond the scope of Lin Chen's understanding.
"sit…"
The Holy Lord Qiankun chants softly, but his majestic appearance is still hard to see.
"yes…"
Lin Chen sat cross-legged anxiously, but felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.
"catch…"
Qiankun Shengzun shouted, and at some point, Lin Chen actually held a fishing rod in his hand, but Lin Chen didn't feel anything.
But what surprised Lin Chen was that there was no fishhook on the fishing rod in his hand, and when he looked at the pond in front of him, he didn't feel any fish.
Suddenly, the Holy Lord Qiankun said calmly: "The fish is not a fish. Those who wish to take the bait do not depend on their hopes, but on their state of mind. All things in the world contain the holy way of infinite wonderful realms. Use your heart to understand it, and don't be impetuous."
Lin Chen was startled, and the Holy Lord Qiankun seemed to be trying to enlighten him.
Involuntarily, Lin Chen restrained his mind and wanted to imitate the Holy Lord Qiankun, fishing quietly without distracting thoughts.
But the problem is, there is a supreme power sitting next to him. No matter what, it is difficult for Lin Chen to calmly enter the country. On the contrary, the invisible sense of oppression makes Lin Chen feel a little uneasy.
"hehe…"
Holy Lord Qiankun chuckled. Although he did not look directly at Lin Chen, Lin Chen's every move and expression change were all clearly discernible.
The Holy Lord Qiankun intended to test Lin Chen's character and did not mention Lin Chen again.
Lin Chen was dripping with cold sweat. Even though he was in a deep state of mind, he seemed confused and angry in front of the Holy Lord Qiankun. He even went crazy and went crazy. It was really stressful.
Venerable Kunlun looked at Lin Chen's uncomfortable look, shook his head and sighed: "The palace master has never treated a disciple so favorably. How much you can understand depends on your understanding and luck."
Indeed, being able to fish at the same table as the Holy Lord Qiankun was enough for Lin Chen to cause a sensation in the entire Holy Palace.
But now Lin Chen was obviously just fishing, but he was far more uncomfortable and tormented than being in Shura Purgatory.
The problem is, Lin Chen doesn't dare to make any movement to disturb the Holy Lord Qiankun.
It’s so uncomfortable…
Is this fishing? It’s obvious that he is being tortured.
Seeing Lin Chen's uncomfortable look, Qiankun Shengzun praised him: "Yes, for being able to restrain himself for so long under the pressure of this palace, this little guy's character is indeed different from ordinary people. If it were an ordinary person, I'm afraid his mind would have collapsed.
.”
The praise in the heart of Qiankun Shengzun is not an exaggeration. After all, with Lin Chen's cultivation level, he is now facing secret pressure from the supreme and powerful powerhouse, which is beyond the ability of ordinary emperor-level powerhouses.
But now Lin Chen is indeed feeling very uncomfortable. His face is pale and he is dripping with cold sweat. He feels like every moment and every second is like a battle between heaven and man, and it is even more like experiencing a fierce battle of life and death.
And Lin Chen also understood that Qiankun Shengzun didn't say anything to remind him anymore, obviously he meant to test himself.
"The Palace Master is right, even if you are under a lot of pressure, you must not be impatient."
"Calm down! I must calm down!"
"This is not only a test for me by the palace master, but also a rare opportunity to practice. I must not let down the palace master's blessings for me."
…
Lin Chen restrained his mind and tried his best to convince himself.
But the more this happened, the more confused Lin Chen became.
"Why do I still feel so bad?"
"Am I afraid? But what am I afraid of? Am I afraid of the Palace Master?"
"We are strangers to each other. Even if the person in front of me is not the palace master, there is no reason for me to feel scared?"
"Am I restraining myself too deliberately?"
…
Lin Chen was agitated and tried all kinds of methods, but still couldn't calm down.
Just like this, Lin Chen struggled in his heart for a long time, and the fishing rod in Lin Chen's hand trembled uneasily.
The water in front of him was obviously as calm as a still pool, but in Lin Chen's eyes it became turbid.
Finally, Holy Lord Qiankun couldn't help but transmit a message: "Your current state of mind is just like the pool water you see in front of you, turbid and unclear."
"disciple…"
Lin Chen was so frightened that he couldn't speak.
"Are you afraid?"
"Hazard...fear...no, awe..."
"Then why do you fear me? Is it because my cultivation level is higher than yours?"
"I…"
Lin Chen's mind was in turmoil and his mood was difficult to calm down.
"What you call fear and awe is just a conscious reaction to the existence of this palace. If your intention is only to catch the essence of fishing, why should you care about the existence of this palace?" The Holy Lord Qiankun said casually, and Lin Chen was enlightened.
yes!
Lin Chen is fishing now. His pure intention is to gain something, so why should he care too much about the existence of others?
As the Holy Lord Qiankun said, all things in the world, every plant and tree, all contain the infinite wonderful Dharma and the Holy Way. Only by comprehending it with your heart and listening quietly can you realize the true meaning of the world.
Gradually, Lin Chen forgot everything and himself, settled his mind, and entered the world with observation. He calmly held the fishing rod and waited quietly.
At the same time, the originally turbid pool water gradually became calmer as Lin Chen's mind settled.
It can be said that the heart is like a clear mirror.
A confused mind will lead to chaos, and a calm mind will lead to tranquility. All changes in the world depend on the mind.
Lin Chen was originally gifted and had a good state of mind. After receiving some advice from the Holy Lord Qiankun, Lin Chen quickly fell into a mysterious state of mind.
Get rid of distracting thoughts, and feel as if your mind is integrated into everything in the world, quietly comprehending and listening.
"That's right, I just gave you a little reminder, and you quickly fell into the artistic conception of observing and entering the country." Holy Lord Qiankun was very impressed and became more and more interested in Lin Chen.
