This is the incense of the hidden dragon. The dragon can be big or small, can ascend or hide. When it is bright, it shines on the earth. If it wants to hide, it disappears quietly and cannot be found even if it is searched all over the world.
The name Hidden Dragon Incense comes from this. If a dragon wants to hide, there is nowhere to be found except those who are also true dragons.
Although it is exaggerated, it can also show that it is special.
It is rare in the world. It cannot smell much under the nose of normal practitioners and can be regarded as colorless and odorless. However, a special smell can be smelled under the noses of some special species.
Used to hunt down and search some people who are the best in the world.
I was drugged with Hidden Dragon Incense, so even if I changed my appearance and hid in the Imperial College, the Third Prince's people would still come to me bit by bit.
I was careless, thinking that traveling around would be very insightful, so I underestimated the heroes of the world.
Kyoto gathers a group of the most outstanding figures in the world, and all kinds of weird arts are spread here, which are far beyond the reach of all states.
The other party was quite well prepared. Before I could say no, he took out a piece of paper with a smile.
"Transfer Zhang Mingtu, the general banner of Jinyiwei under the jurisdiction of Jiujiang County, to Kyoto. He will serve as a secret guard for one hundred Jinyiwei households. His identity will be kept secret and he will act according to the situation. He will be directly under the leadership of Yang Xiaojie, one thousand Jinyiwei households..."
The other party's methods of dealing with things are quite clever. As soon as this order came out, my heart dropped.
This shows that the other party is fully aware of my status and family situation.
Don't look at the person in charge of recruiting now looking at me with a smile, and he has also promoted my position by two levels, or even more than two levels. After all, officials in Kyoto have always been known as the third level of officialdom.
Wherever you go to local positions, you will be promoted several levels out of thin air. Basically, when you are decentralized, you will become the person who rules the place.
The other party has given a lot of benefits, but the disadvantages are still huge.
Now he is looking at me with a smile, which will be of great help to my future.
But I will never forget the time when I was not recruited before.
At that time, all kinds of pursuits were endless, and it was impossible to distinguish his status. For such a big shot, you had to choose a battle, and once you determined your position, there was no regret at all. After all, the battle for the throne could only proceed.
, Don’t retreat. One step back will lead to an abyss.
After the other party inquires about my specific information, they can gently promote my position to many levels, but they will also show no mercy when they fall out with me.
I saw deep surprise and undisguised excitement on the face of the person responsible for recruiting me.
To them, Demon Sword Ding was a very scary figure.
To be able to dominate a luxurious place like Kyoto and defeat all opponents, one can imagine how terrifying his strength and talent are. Originally, they thought that such a person had a very strong inheritance and could never come from a small family.
Normally they wouldn't be able to recruit Liu Jin. After learning about my status, I think he was shocked and overjoyed to be able to recruit such an outstanding talent for the third prince. He was helpless and relied solely on his talent.
It must be a huge credit to a person who has made it this far.
The other party was very intelligent. After confirming that I saw the transfer order, he was very shocked and did not mention my unknown little family in Jiangnan West Road. But he and I both knew that the survival of the entire family
It's all in my thoughts.
When the other party knew my identity, but did not fully know my identity when using the magic sword Ding Yuan, I practiced more Buddhist-related techniques.
It was only the Demon Sword Ding Yuan who revealed his secret, and his other identity, Iron Fist Invincible Li Chenzhou, did not reveal his secret.
After all, Iron Fist Invincible Li Chenzhou disappeared shortly after entering Xuankong Mountain and did not have much reputation.
I temporarily accepted the job and decided to join the service of the Third Prince. Although it was forced, the person responsible for recruiting me was obviously very excited.
I even took the opportunity to find out that Yinlong Xiang came from the Jodo Temple outside Kyoto.
I thought about it and couldn't figure out at what stage and at which place in the Pure Land Temple someone was poisoning the Hidden Dragon Incense.
This aide from the third prince had a very strict tone, saying that he was revealing a flaw, but in fact it was probably the other party who revealed it on purpose.
On the one hand, it shows the strength of the third prince from the side, showing that the third prince is not a rootless duckweed, on the contrary, he has a profound foundation.
The Pure Land Temple among the Buddhist sects, and even the entire Buddhist sect, are supporting the third prince.
On the other hand, it was a kind of compensation for the sudden promotion of my relevant position to Kyoto. That method was too violent and a normal smart person would think that it contained a threat to my family.
The other party comforted me by telling me hidden news, saying that all the secrets of the Third Prince's lineage were open to me, that we were our own people, and that he wanted me to return home.
This is a very clever way to control his subordinates. No matter whether he is a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old or a mature and prudent person, after this experience, he will have to return to the third prince.
The eighteen or seventeen-year-old boy was suddenly promoted to a very high position, and at the same time he was related to the most noble person in this world. It was very exciting to think about it.
Even if you have some scheming and some maturity, you will eventually come back to your heart after doing this.
If I were still a boy of seventeen or eighteen and still ignorant about these things, then maybe I would be very grateful.
But after being polished by many future brothers, most of them encountered various setbacks. Now when I look at these things, I understand them clearly in my heart.
But it's not of much use to understand it clearly. Once I'm in this boat, I can't retreat. Being caught has meant that I have no way out.
And I know that these job-related promotions are one-sided and of little significance. Soon it will be as I expected.
After secretly thinking about it, after going through extremely complicated assessments and research, it was confirmed that I was indeed from a small family in Jianyi, Jiangnan West Road.
Among the three princes, an eminent Buddhist monk from Pure Land Temple met me secretly and wanted to guide me in my practice.
I didn't hide much, I told him all about my identity related to Ding Yuan and my Buddhist skills.
I know that this is the other party testing my cultivation skills and my cultivation potential, in order to determine my value and attitude towards me.
If you are an ordinary civilian, you will of course have to go through numerous tests, and then step by step you will be able to obtain the most advanced cultivation techniques, and you will also need to redeem the relevant cultivation resources bit by bit.
After learning about my cultivation method, the elder from Pure Land Temple confirmed it several times and left with a face full of ecstasy.
Later, the third prince even met with me in person and showed his status as a courteous corporal.
After much consideration, the other party decided to let me worship at Donglin Temple.
Donglin Temple is one of the most powerful representatives of Buddhism in the West Road of Jiangnan. It has examples of Qianli, its voice, and one of the top Buddhist methods passed down in their temples, which is the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra.
No one has truly succeeded in practicing Buddhism for years.
If I show that I have successfully practiced Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra, I will probably be directly established as a Buddhist temple when I go to Donglin Temple.
In this way, we can win the support of the largest Buddhist force in Jiangnan West Road, which will be extremely useful for the third prince's future great cause.
After all, it is rumored that the reason why Donglin Temple in Jiangnan West Road is able to conquer half of the country is that there is a golden Arhat in the temple who maintains a half-life and half-death state.
For someone like the Third Prince, who holds the highest position in the empire, he still attaches great importance to Donglin Temple, which obviously shows that there is a golden Arhat in Donglin Temple, which is definitely not a rumor, but a fact.
Plans are just plans, and successful implementation requires a lot of dedication and effort.
Well, the first and most important thing is to make me loyal enough to the Third Prince's lineage.
After all, although I was discovered by them, they actually didn't give me much.
Soon the forces belonging to the third prince's line were operating at full strength, allowing me to see the tip of the iceberg at the highest level of the empire's power.
I became a hidden existence and was sent to the deepest part of the Pure Land Temple to practice.
Every day, I don’t have to do anything, someone will give me relevant books from Donglin Temple and basic martial arts.
One of the most outstanding elders in the Pure Land is responsible for teaching me.
Whether it is classics or martial arts techniques, you must study them all, and you must understand various Buddhist verses.
The one who knows the most about Buddhism is undoubtedly Buddhism itself, and the Pure Land Sect has a deep understanding of Donglin Temple.
And it is very clear what kind of state the other party's Buddhist disciple is in.
The purpose of the other party is also very clear, which is to replace the original Buddhist disciple of Donglin Temple and become the new Buddhist disciple, and to take charge of the entire Donglin Temple in the near future. At least he must get the support of most of the people in Donglin Temple.
With my Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra and my fifth-level cultivation, it is not difficult to directly become a disciple of the Buddha.
There may be some controversy, but it will still receive great support.
If you stay in the position of Buddhist disciple for twenty years, you can basically succeed in succeeding the abbot of Donglin Temple and become the new generation of abbot of Donglin Temple.
Normally, this is a good choice, and it won't leave any side effects.
But the third prince couldn't wait that long.
If he does not accumulate enough momentum in a short period of time, more and more people will gather around the prince.
After all, the prince is born with the support of the people. As long as he stays there quietly without fighting for it, the throne will naturally be his. The third prince cannot wait too long.
Ten thousand years is too long, and he only seizes the day.
Therefore, he hopes to assign me a new identity so that I can succeed the abbot of Donglin Temple as quickly as possible and become the most outstanding genius of Donglin Temple.
They asked me to pretend to be one of the most outstanding figures in Buddhism in the past, a descendant of Jianzhen from the Pure Land Sect.
Well, it went around and around and came back to the original place.
I never thought that this time was actually related to the Jianzhen who went to the Land of the Rising Sun six times. I only found out after hearing their detailed explanation.
Jianzhen was one of the most outstanding figures in Buddhism at that time. He once communicated with major temples. When he communicated with Donglin Temple, he had a close relationship with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra. He once obtained the complete version of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra, and even
Yu was worshiped as an elder by Donglin Temple.
Even if Jianzhen's reputation in the Pure Land hadn't been so great, Donglin Temple would have transferred Jianzhen directly to Donglin Temple and made him a disciple of the Buddha.
The Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra claims that no one has practiced it for hundreds of years. It is indeed true, but it is also true that the practice of Jianzhen has been successful. However, only the top figures in Buddhism know this information.
Of course, the royal family also knows now.
I was a little surprised that the other party wanted me to pretend to be a true authenticator.
Yes, but I am really the descendant of Jian.
In their opinion, if he is the successor of Jianzhen, he should have a clear understanding of Buddhist classics, be very familiar with various Buddhist allusions, and be able to compose Buddhist verses casually.
At the same time, he is very powerful in Buddhist martial arts. He also dabbles in and understands various other branches of Buddhist martial arts. He is born with a Buddhist heart.
Well, I admit that I won second place in the Imitation Appraisal and Successor Competition.
The first place is Ding Yuan, the magic sword from the Pure Land.
In order to make me feel more Buddhist and Zen, Jodo Temple really made a big effort.
They took out a precious relic left by a figure close to the level of a martial saint after his nirvana, and cut off my hair and washed my marrow.
It helps me reach a higher level, and at the same time, it puts this relic in my body, making my identity as a successor of Buddhism more real.
After all, this being is a pure practitioner of the Pure Land Sect of Buddhism with a strength close to that of a martial saint. He washed his marrow and exchanged blood for the ninth level. However, he passed through Nirvana in the process of leaping over the dragon gate and ascending to the sky to become a dragon, leaving behind three pieces.
Relics.
Well, I had been practicing Pure Land Sect for two and a half years before they gave me this relic and told me that I could debut...oh, leave the temple.
In the past two and a half years, my strength has improved by leaps and bounds, reaching the peak of true energy, but of course it stopped at the top.
The Third Prince's lineage does not want me to break through to become a Grandmaster right away, but wants me to hone my skills a little more. It is best that after I become a disciple of Buddhism, I can interact with others inside and outside Donglin Temple, become a Grandmaster, and give Donglin Temple a sense of participation.
After all, although I was born in the Zhang family, raised by the third prince, and follow the Pure Land religion, I will become a Buddhist disciple of Donglin Temple in the future.
It is best to give Donglin Temple a more sense of participation, otherwise a grandmaster suddenly appears and becomes a Buddhist disciple, and Donglin Temple will lose face.
Donglin Temple may not necessarily be willing to let a strange master become a Buddhist disciple.
Well, okay, actually it is better to become a Grandmaster, but most people have to reach this level. Many of the top geniuses at that time also failed to get in at this level, wasted for decades, and then sighed.
Then he sighed.
In order to make me, a wild Buddhist disciple, more presentable, the Third Prince's lineage still restrained the practice resources provided to me, and did not dare to give them indiscriminately. They only kept them according to the general appearance of the inheritance left by Jianzhen.
In fact, I have already been able to break through to the Grandmaster level, but the Third Prince thinks I can't.
They did not provide me with more accumulations that would allow me to break through the three-dimensional integration of spirit, energy and spirit into a master. Only when I was preparing to debut, they gave me a master who was left behind by the Nirvana of a top figure in Buddhism, who was the first of the Pure Land Sect.
A person who claimed to have a chance to become an Arhat stayed behind.
The relics were given to me, firstly, to increase the credibility of my inheritance of authenticating the truth, and secondly, to give me a language barrier, which would make it easier to break through the masters in the future.
Well, when I walked out of Jodo Temple, walked out of Kyoto, and gradually approached Jiangnan West Road, when I realized that no one was supervising me around me, I naturally broke through to become a master.
