Li Zhi finally left Snake Mountain Yingchoujian. He could have stayed originally, and I believe Ao Ling was also willing to see it.
Although this place may not be a famous mountain or river, for today's Li Zhi, it can be regarded as a rare geomantic treasure.
However, the young heart does not want to stay in one place for too long. The excitement of Journey to the West is his biggest yearning at present, not to mention, he really misses Tang Monk and Sun Wukong.
Following the route in my memory, with the secret notes left by Sun Wukong as a guide, I first came to the "Lishe Temple", then passed the "Xifanhaji Kingdom", and finally arrived at the "Guanyin Temple".
At this time, the "Guanyin Yuan" was under construction. After asking a group of monks, I found out that Tang Seng and his disciples had just left two months ago.
Li Zhi's journey alone is still faster than that of Tang Monk and Sun Wukong, not to mention that they have to go through it one by one.
In a fire, except for the Zen room where Monk Tang lived at the time, almost everything else had been burned to ashes. Most of the monks left one after another, but some monks stayed.
When Elder Jinchi, the leader of the old courtyard, died, Monk Guangzhi, who usually performed "outstandingly", suddenly changed his identity and became the host here.
However, after the fire, most of the people left and many belongings were reduced to ashes, so it became difficult to rebuild the temple.
Guangzhi lived up to his dharma title, and he was also a person who practiced it. In less than two months, he mobilized all the monks to go around for alms.
Perhaps Guanyin Bodhisattva has enough prestige in the world. When I heard that it was to rebuild the "Guanyin Temple", many people came out to donate generously.
We raised money to purchase the necessary materials, and the craftsmen were ready to work for Guanyin Temple. Many craftsmen said they would not charge wages, and they would only need two meals a day.
Now, two months have passed. The gate and walls of Guanyin Temple have been built first, and the Main Hall is about to be completed. Some devout pilgrims have even come to offer incense.
Li Zhi did not stop at Guanyin Yuan, and did not even go to see the monk Guangzhi. He was just a small character who could not get on the stage. Even if he had some sinister intentions, he could not attract Li Zhi's attention.
However, Li Zhi was particularly interested in the black bear spirit who had a back-and-forth fight with Sun Wukong.
Although Sun Wukong has been trapped under the Five Elements Mountain for five hundred years, and his cultivation has not advanced but retreated, the last time we were separated, Sun Wukong was only at the peak of the Xuanxian.
However, the black bear spirit seems to be a local wild monster. Where did he learn such great skills?
Out of curiosity, Li Zhi turned southward, and twenty miles away from Guanyin Temple was the Black Wind Mountain.
Unfortunately, the black bear spirit had been taken back to Luojia Mountain in the South China Sea by Guanyin Bodhisattva. When Li Zhi came to Heifeng Mountain, all he saw was devastation.
There are rubbles everywhere, and I don’t know if this is the result of the fight between Sun Wukong and the black bear spirit, or the result of Brother Monkey venting his anger?
Under the "Golden Eyes of Destruction", Li Zhi quickly found the cave of the black bear spirit.
This is the second time he has stepped into the Monster Cave. The last time was the Tiger Cave in Shuangcha Ridge, but it was far less clean and tidy than here, and there was also the faint sound of Buddha.
Li Zhi remembered that the black bear spirit was devoted to Buddhism, and had been good neighbors with Elder Jinchi of Guanyin Temple for more than two hundred years. Even after grabbing the brocade cassock, he wanted to hold a "Buddha Clothing Party"
Celebrate.
Batu Caves was now an unoccupied place. Li Zhi stepped in and found no restrictions.
Li Zhi took a look at the scattered weapons on the ground. Although they were slightly better than those used by the mortal army, they were not even magical weapons. They were already dilapidated and dilapidated, so he walked over indifferently.
This should be the main cave of Batu Caves. Li Zhi had walked nearly a cup of tea from the entrance of the cave, but he didn't feel any suffocation. I don't know what kind of ventilation treatment was done.
Unfortunately, the entire cave was empty. Apart from the acceptable aura, Li Zhi didn't find anything of note.
"Hey, I found nothing again. Is it really a poor monster, or did someone get there first?"
Li Zhi shook his head speechlessly, and suddenly looked at a corner of the inner cave. The earth and rocks underground seemed to be a little loose, and even undulated slightly.
"It's actually a snake, but how can its breath be so weak?"
With Li Zhi's "Golden Eyes of Destruction," he could clearly see a small gray snake squirming underground, as if it was about to crawl to the ground.
As far as Li Zhi knows, there were originally three monsters in Black Wind Mountain. The black bear spirit was naturally the big monster king, and they had close friendship with each other on weekdays. There was also a green wolf monster named Lingxunzi, and the other one was the white flower snake spirit.
Not only do these three demons not eat people, they also live in harmony with humans. The black bear demon Xiangfo and the green wolf demon named Lingxuzi are demons who seek the Tao.
However, the white-flowered snake spirit likes to dress up as a scholar and calls himself a "gentleman in white".
However, Li Zhi clearly remembered that except for the black bear spirit who followed Guanyin Bodhisattva, it seemed that the other two monsters were beaten to death by Monkey King?
Li Zhi didn't let Li Zhi wait for too long. Sure enough, a snake came out of the ground in the corner.
About three feet long, with white flowers and white flowers, holding its head high and speaking out a message.
"You are so friendly, do you still want to come to Batu Caves?——"
Li Zhi removed his invisibility spell and appeared in front of the white-flowered snake spirit. At the same time, he used a body-holding technique, and the white-flowered snake spirit was imprisoned there.
"You...who are you, and why did you come to Batu Caves?"
It turns out that the white-flowered snake on the ground is really the scholar in white who has made friends with the black bear monster.
When Sun Wukong struck with his stick, the white-flowered snake saw that it was no longer invincible and hurriedly released a virtual body of its own.
It was the snake skin he shed when he transformed. By chance, it was refined into a virtual body by him, which gave him an extra life.
Even so, if the Ruyi Golden Cudgel is really hit, it will be destroyed physically and mentally.
The white-flowered snake escaped, but its cultivation level has greatly regressed. Now it is only in the middle stage of "Golden Elixir" and is not yet as good as Li Zhi's level.
"Are you the scholar in white? I can let you go, but I don't want you to play any tricks. I just want to ask you some questions."
Li Zhi naturally knows a lot about the behavior of the three demons of Black Wind Mountain, so he will not embarrass the other party or even kill them like Sun Wukong did.
The white-flowered snake regained its freedom, but it still has the body of a snake. Perhaps it was too seriously injured and has not been able to transform into a human form for more than two months.
"But based on the immortal's questioning, the little demon will definitely tell you everything he knows."
The situation is stronger than the people. Originally, the three of them did not have to worry about their own safety in the Black Wind Mountain area, and they were even more kind to others.
Unexpectedly, two monks came to learn Buddhist scriptures, and the Black Bear King even stole their brocade cassocks by accident.
In the end, among the three demons of Black Wind Mountain, one died, the other was injured, and one was taken away by Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Since then, although the white-flowered snake has not harmed humans, it no longer takes the initiative to contact humans as before.
What's more, he is still in the body of a snake, but he can speak human words. In this state, he cannot come into contact with humans.
"My Highness has also heard about the three demons of Black Wind Mountain. I know that you have never done any evil, otherwise I would not be so kind to you."
"I see that this cave is filled with a strong aura of Buddha. Is that black bear really a person who worships Buddha? Then, where did he learn his skills?"
Invisibly, Li Zhi has already used the "Mind-Taking Technique". This series of small spells are all learned from Sun Wukong. They are various and can really come in handy at critical moments.
"Exalted Immortal Rongzhen, the Black Bear King, myself, and the deceased Taoist Brother Lingxuzi, although they are from the demon clan, they have never oppressed the weak, nor have they taken human life lightly."
"King Black Bear has always been fond of Buddhism. He learned many Buddhist principles from Elder Jinchi. As for his powerful skills, Xiaoyao thinks that they should have been 'passed on' by Elder Jinchi."
This white-flowered snake has lived in this Black Wind Mountain since he was a child. At that time, this place was not called Black Wind Mountain, but was called "Guanyin Ridge", echoing the "Guanyin Temple" twenty miles away.<
/p>
Later, a green wolf came from elsewhere, and the black bear spirit was the last to arrive.
The reason why White Flower Snake uses the word "passed on from generation to generation" is because although Elder Jinchi has lived for more than 270 years, he does not have any magic power.
Secondly, when the black bear spirit came to Guanyin Ridge, it was just a little monster that had just started to form pills, and its strength was far inferior to that of Ling Xuzi and White Flower Snake.
Unexpectedly, after the Black Bear Spirit had been dating Elder Jinchi for a hundred years, his cultivation and realm had made breakthroughs one after another, transforming into a god, overcoming tribulations, becoming a heavenly immortal, and finally reaching the realm of the Mysterious Immortal.
The rapid entry made Ling Xuzi and Baihua Snake envious. After that, "Guanyin Ridge" was renamed "Black Wind Mountain". It seems that the Black Bear Spirit didn't come up with it himself.
Baihua Snake and Ling Xuzi decided that Black Bear Spirit's great improvement must be related to Elder Jinchi.
"Passing it down from generation to generation" seems more reasonable, but who should it be passed down on behalf of?
Li Zhi believed 90% of what Baihua Snake said.
In Journey to the West, most of the powerful monsters have a backing and will not be killed by Tang Monk and his disciples.
When the critical moment comes, the backers behind them will stand up and let their disciples and even their mounts and servants transform into monsters in the lower world. This is just to add some hardships to Monk Tang's journey to the west.
The real purpose is to divide the merits of the journey to the west. Merit will be gained by rescuing Tang Seng and embarrassing Tang Seng. Most of the time, it is just to catch the thief when the thief shouts.
"Let me ask you, every time the black bear spirit meets the elder Jinchi, do they always go to the Guanyin Temple? Or do they go somewhere else?"
After Baihua Snake finished introducing, Li Zhi still didn't hear what he wanted, so he continued to ask.
"This..."
The white-flowered snake hesitated for a while, seeming to be recalling the past, but he was now in the body of a snake, and Li Zhi couldn't understand the expression on his face.
"Sir, when you said this, the little demon remembered something. Behind the Batu Cave, there is a cave, which is where the Black Bear King usually practices."
"One time, the little demon came to look for King Black Bear, and saw him and Elder Jinchi walking out of there. Maybe they meet there every time, but King Black Bear rarely goes to Guanyin Temple."
Hearing this, Li Zhi's heart moved, what's going on?
"Lead the way, let's go to the black bear practice place and have a look -"
One snake and one person turned back after exiting the Batu Cave. Li Zhi stared closely at the white snake in front of him, for fear that he would suddenly play some trick.
However, when we arrived at the cave in the back mountain, we didn't see any strange movement from the white snake.
As everyone knows, among the three demons of Black Wind Mountain, White Flower Snake may be the weakest in combat power, but he is the most resourceful among them.
Seeing that Li Zhi's cultivation and skills were far superior to his own, and hearing that he called himself "Your Highness," he must be a master with great background.
Besides, he himself also wanted to know what the Black Bear King’s training place looked like.
The White Snake naturally knows the location of the cave where Black Bear practices his martial arts, but he does not have the "strength" to open the cave door.
That's right, it's "strength".
The cave where Black Bear practices his martial arts looks very simple from the outside, just like any other ordinary cave.
It's just that the stone gate is very special. It doesn't have any mechanisms or formations. It's just like a dragon-breaking stone.
Baihua Snake once tried, but with his cultivation in the middle stage of Xuanxian at that time, he was unable to push the stone door open.
"The Immortal is here, but the stone door of this cave is too heavy. In the entire Black Wind Mountain, only the power of the Black Bear King can push it."
The local White Flower Snake was brought here. Next, he could only and only wanted to watch from the sidelines to see if this young man who suddenly appeared had the ability to open the stone door.
In the pitch-black mountain, there is a large stone gate nearly two people tall. One can imagine how burly the black bear is.
Li Zhi took a look with the "Breaking Golden Eyes" and found no mechanism or energy fluctuations. However, the stone door in front of him was three feet thick and seemed to be made of a whole piece of black stone? p>
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
What a big deal, this whole big black stone is probably not something that Black Bear Spirit can own and create.
"Crunch——"
Li Zhi tried it with one hand, and only opened the stone door by a gap. A cool breeze came from inside, bringing bursts of Buddhist energy.
Is there an incense altar inside?
This stone gate is indeed very heavy. Li Zhi estimated that it probably weighs no less than 20,000 kilograms, especially on top of Sun Wukong's Ruyi Golden Cudgel.
Li Zhi looked heavy. He didn't know if he would cause any unnecessary trouble if he really went in.
However, since we have already come here, do we still have to turn around and go back?
"The Immortal is really powerful, the little demon admires it——"
Although the White Flower Snake's cultivation has regressed, the eyesight of many years is still there. The Black Bear Spirit is an existence at the peak of Xuanxian, and his combat power is not inferior to that of ordinary Golden Fairyland, so he can move the stone gate freely.
From Li Zhi's body, he could feel that the other party's cultivation level should not exceed his own, which means that he would not reach the Mysterious Immortal Realm.
Now that he is able to push this stone gate with one hand, how can he not be admired by the White Flower Snake?
Unfortunately, he still miscalculated. Not only did Li Zhi not reach the Mysterious Immortal Realm, he was not even a True Immortal or a Celestial Immortal. He was just a mid-stage "god transformation" cultivation level.
With the "powerful" characteristic, you can compete across several levels!
The white snake's compliment made Li Zhi no longer hesitate, he put his hands together and said, "Creak-"
"Bang--"
The big black stone door was pushed open entirely, revealing a dark cave.
"You should also come along——"
Li Zhi turned to look at the white snake lying on the ground and said leisurely.
"Thank you, God——"
The white-flowered snake responded, with a hint of gratitude in his words.
Although there is no light in the cave, it is not affected at all by Li Zhi, who has the "Golden Eyes of Deception", and the White Flower Snake who is accustomed to walking at night.
However, Li Zhi still misses Ao Ling a little. To be precise, he misses Ao Ling's luminous pearl the size of a bowl.
"Hey, why am I so tender-faced? If I had the shamelessness to ask her for that luminous pearl, would she not give it to me?"
"Maybe... maybe... to a large extent... the other party really won't give it to me, right?"
……
The cave is not deep, only a few dozen feet long from the entrance to the innermost part, and there are not even any twists and turns.
It's just that the entrance of the cave is normal, but inside it is a big belly, which is actually divided into three independent quiet rooms.
In the largest room, there are incense tables lined up in the center, and a huge bronze incense burner filled with incense ashes, but no tablets or Buddha statues were seen.
There is also plenty of spiritual energy here, but this spiritual energy seems different from ordinary natural spiritual energy. Li Zhi has just absorbed a little, and he can't help but have the illusion of worshiping to the west?
There are two futons placed on the ground. They seem to be used for daily meditation. The materials are extraordinary, surrounded by spiritual energy, and they remain new for a long time.
Li Zhi was not polite to anyone. Why was he here? With a wave of his hand, he put the pair of futons into his "storage ring".
I looked at the big bronze incense burner...Forget it, you can't take everything away, right?
"Shangxian, look quickly, there are words there——"
As the white-flowered snake shouted, six large characters were engraved on the big incense burner above the two of them, and there seemed to be many small-character annotations around each character.
"Om", "Ma", "Ne", "Ba", "Mi", "Hum"...
Six gilded characters, is this the "six-character motto"?
