Songshan Shaolin Temple The majestic Mount Song is hidden in the purple smoke, the young room is beautiful and the auspicious clouds are leisurely. The sound of the bells is lingering, and the flowing water is full of Zen.
Soon after dawn that day, a group of seventy or eighty people arrived at the foot of Songshan Mountain. Everyone came wearing the clothes of Turpan outside the Great Wall.
The leaders of this group of masters are none other than Shenggeldan, the ever-victorious Heavenly Lord of the Vajra Gate, and Songzanlu, the Great Snow Wheel King of Turpan.
"Senior Songtsan Lu, thank you for coming to help this time. Let's rest at the foot of the mountain for two hours first, and then go up the mountain to challenge Shaolin. How about it?" The tall and powerful Shenggeldan said with cupped fists and a salute.
"Emperor Changsheng is so polite. Now that we are all under the command of Lord Sa'an, of course we must work together." Songzanlu returned the greeting with a smile.
Then Songtsan Lu Surong said: "The last time we came to the Central Plains, we had already investigated the reality of the Shaolin Sect. The Shaolin Temple is a thousand-year-old temple with a profound heritage and cannot be underestimated. The last time Senior Ujitso and I suffered a setback in Wudang, it was the Xiaolin Sect.
After seeing the power of the Wudang Sect’s Zhenwu Seven-section Formation, we did not pay attention to Dugu Xiaotian, a generation of geniuses who had recently emerged in the world, and we suffered a hidden loss.”
Shenggeldan has a rough appearance, but is actually delicate and cautious in his heart. He nodded when he heard this, "Don't worry, King Snow Wheel, we challenge Shaolin Temple this time and we will fight alone. If Shaolin Temple wants to use formations, our Vajra Sect will also use formations."
If you can't deal with it properly, I will never underestimate the enemy."
Then he pondered for a while, "Senior Songtsan Lu, in your opinion, will Dugu Xiaotian be in Shaolin Temple right now?"
"Dugu Xiaotian has probably arrived at the Shaolin Temple!" Songtsan Lu said in a deep voice, "The thirty-year agreement with the Vajra Gate is related to the reputation of the Shaolin Temple for thousands of years. At this critical moment of the rise and fall of Shaolin's honor and disgrace, Dugu Xiaotian will inevitably be invited to come and help.
Boxing. The abbot of Shaolin has great foresight. During the Battle of Datong, he had already invited Dugu Xiaotian to be the protector of Shaolin Temple."
"How does Dugu Xiaotian's martial arts compare with that of my brothers and sisters?" A black-faced man interjected and asked. This man was none other than the third Heavenly Lord among the Ten Heavenly Lords, the Yongwu Heavenly Lord Chaqin Li.
Songzanlu pondered for a moment and looked troubled.
Qinggezan, the tall and fair-faced Tunhai Tianzun who ranked second, saw this and asked in confusion: "Senior Songtsan Lu, along the way, you already know the martial arts of my Ten Tianzun very well, why is it so difficult to answer now?"
Songtsan Lu gave a wry smile, "To be honest with you, Duguxiao is a prodigy every day, and his martial arts has improved rapidly. Although it has only been more than three months, I am not sure about the depth of his current martial arts."
Shi Tianzun couldn't help being surprised when he heard this, and Qinggezan laughed loudly, "Senior, you are overthinking it. In just over three months, even the five magical powers in the world, who are known as martial arts wizards, can't make much progress in martial arts, let alone the unknown Dugu Xiaotian before.
.”
"The world all respects the Five Divine Powers, and there is even the Solitary Laughing Man outside the world." Songtsan Lu shook his head when he heard this, "My lords, please don't underestimate Dugu Xiaotian."
"According to my judgment, Dugu Xiaotian's martial arts is definitely not as good as Changsheng Tianzun, but it is second only to your senior brother Brahma Tianzun. Only these two among the ten Tianzun can defeat him." Songzanlu breathed out,
Said slowly.
"Abbott, the Vajra disciples have arrived outside the temple." Huiguang, the welcoming monk, hurried to Damo Monastery and reported.
It was already noon at this time, and all the eminent monks in Shaolin Temple had already finished their fast meal and gathered in the Bodhidharma Courtyard to wait for a cup of tea.
"Well done!" Master Zhenyan beamed with joy and cheered: "Juniors, the one who will accompany us to practice is here."
"Abbott, let's go and fight the Vajra Gate as soon as possible!" Master Zhenhui urged.
"Ho!" Abbot Wu Yin coughed, "You two uncles must not be rude. Please let me and my senior brother Wu receive you before we make any plans."
The two masters, Zhenyan and Zhenhui, stopped talking and scratched their heads anxiously. They created a new martial arts move last night and were extremely excited. They were about to try the power of the new move against the enemy.
"Huiguang, Shaolin Temple is a thousand-year-old temple. There are many ancient relics in the temple. It is not suitable for martial arts competitions. Please invite the Vajra Gate to wait for you at the martial arts training square in front of the temple. We will settle the grudges we had many years ago there." Abbot Wu Yin shouted in a low voice.
"Follow the abbot's decree!" Master Huiguang took two young monks and hurriedly went down to prepare.
Dugu Xiaotian had a leather hood wrapped around his head and wore the blue monk robe of the Hui generation, just like an ordinary monk. He followed everyone to the martial arts training ground in front of the mountain gate of the Shaolin Temple.
At this time, more than 70 martial arts masters from various countries had gathered on the martial arts training ground in front of the temple. Dugu Xiaotian looked intently and saw only one person in the middle, tall and powerful, with a beard. Standing next to him was a Turpan master who was in Wudang Mountain.
The Great Snow Wheel Ming King Songzanlu I met.
Seeing that the eminent monks of Shaolin Temple had arrived, the leader, Shenggeldan, the Changsheng Tianzun, took two steps forward and bowed to salute, "I, Shenggeldan, the master of Vajra Gate, came to Shaolin Temple today to fulfill the obligations of Vajra Gate and Shaolin Temple thirty years ago.
Regarding the martial arts competition agreement, please ask the Shaolin monks for advice!"
Abbot Wuyin took a step forward and sighed: "Amitabha, when will it be time to retaliate? The Ever Victorious Heavenly Lord is also a great master, so why care about the level of this martial arts? When Huo Gong Tutuo rebelled from Shaolin, it was also because of the lax discipline in our Shaolin Temple.
Some monks oppressed poor lay disciples, and we blame ourselves for this and have strictly disciplined the monks for many years."
Without waiting for Shenggeldan to reply, the Great Heavenly Lord Brahma Heavenly Lord Ha Luoxin next to him stepped forward and shouted: "Shaolin monk, stop talking nonsense. How can the lives of my two senior brothers be given away in vain? In addition, there is also my master's last death wish."
, the Vajra Gate must take revenge.”
Ha Luoxin is fifty-six years old this year. He came to Shaolin with Amunan 30 years ago. He saw the two senior brothers who usually cared about him died in the Shaolin Temple, and he already hated the Shaolin Temple deeply.
"Amitabha, our Shaolin Temple also passed away three eminent monks during the last martial arts competition." Abbot Wuyin said coldly, "Since it is difficult for the Vajra Sect to let go of old grudges, our Shaolin Temple must seek justice for the three eminent monks who passed away."
Shenggeldan shouted, "No need to talk nonsense. According to the rules of the competition thirty years ago, we will compete again. If the Shaolin Temple wins, our Vajra Sect will never seek revenge from the Shaolin Temple in the future. If the Shaolin Temple loses, it will be clear."
Report to Wulin and disband from now on. The Buddhist sect in the Central Plains will be in charge of my Vajra sect."
Abbot Wuyin knew what he was saying. He smiled calmly and said loudly: "Okay, let's follow the rules of the previous competition. We will have five people each. Three wins out of five. Don't worry about life or death!"
He then summoned the Fifth Shaolin Patriarch, Dugu Xiaotian, and several eminent monks of the Wu generation to discuss candidates for the competition.
In the end, from the Shaolin Temple, Master Zhenmeng, Master Zhenyan, Master Zhenhui, Dugu Xiaotian, and Abbot Wuyin competed. At the Vajra Gate, there were Brahma Heavenly Lord, Sea Swallowing Heavenly Lord, Ever Victorious Heavenly Lord, Yongwu Heavenly Lord, and Long Eyebrow Heavenly Lord competing.
