Zhenfo Temple is one of the strongest forces in the Xuanling Immortal State. Even if it is placed in the Xianling Continent and among the top ten Immortal States, it is still a first-rate force.
Especially in Xuanlingxianzhou, almost half of the forces are related to Zhenfo Temple.
Zhenfo Temple has built branch temples one after another on this land, of course, there is only one main temple.
Every hundred years, Zhenfo Temple will recruit lay disciples from outside, and the recruitment targets are limited to lay disciples whose ancestors were former disciples of Zhenfo Temple.
This may not seem to involve a wide scope, but in fact, most of the family forces in Xuanlingxianzhou have their ancestors as lay disciples of Zhenfo Temple.
Therefore, every time the Zhenfo Temple recruits lay disciples, it means that the most outstanding disciples from Xuanling Xianzhou, most of the family forces, are taken under its sect.
These lay disciples are extremely talented and have at least the cultivation level of the Golden Immortal Realm. In time, most of them will become powerful Xuan Immortals and Yuan Immortals.
And they maintain a close relationship with Zhenfo Temple. From this, we can imagine how powerful Zhenfo Temple is in Xuanling Xianzhou.
It is no exaggeration to say that Zhenfo Temple is the uncrowned king of Xuanling Xianzhou.
The main temple of Zhenfo Temple is extremely broad, with tens of thousands of large and small temples, stretching thousands of miles from east to west, and is full of incense.
There is not a trace of miscellaneous gas in the air, and there is no killing or dispute. It is peaceful.
This place seems to be a holy land on earth, a paradise.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the air is rich and incomparably rich, ten times stronger than that in Dongji State.
No wonder, the local cultivation of Dongji Prefecture is difficult to break through the Yuanxian realm, but in the True Buddha Temple, there are so many powerful Yuanxian people.
Lu Chen stood in front of a grand and solemn temple and sighed softly, this true Buddhist temple is a holy place for cultivation!
"Little friend Lu."
At this moment, Li Yang came out of the temple and said to him happily: "I have told Master Faneng about you, and he has decided to see you."
"Thank you, Patriarch Li."
Lu Chen was overjoyed and thanked him.
Before that, Li Yang sent Li Qing to the outer gate of the lay disciples of Zhenfo Temple, and then brought Lu Chen to this temple to ask for a meeting with Master Fa Neng.
This is the fastest way to meet Kasyapa. I didn’t expect that Kasyapa would agree to meet him. It was an unexpected surprise.
"Let's go." Li Yang said.
As he spoke, he led Lu Chen into the temple.
This temple occupies a very large area, with red walls and white tiles, and pines and cypresses standing in the courtyard. Various portraits of Buddha and some verses are painted on the walls, giving people a sense of breadth and profoundness.
After passing through a long corridor and a rockery, Lu Chen followed Li Yang to the main courtyard.
The main courtyard is not big, but it is not small either. There is a bodhi tree planted in the courtyard. Under the tree, stone tables and benches are clean and tidy. An old monk is sitting there.
The old monk had a peaceful appearance and clear and bright eyes, like a kind old man. When he saw Li Yang and Lu Chen, he smiled slightly and said, "Two donors, please sit down."
"Little friend Lu, this is Master Fa Neng." Li Yang introduced Lu Chen.
"Junior Lu Chen has met Master Fa Neng." Lu Chen put his hands together and saluted humbly.
"I heard from Li Yang that you want to see Kassapa as the presiding officer. I wonder if you can tell the poor monk what it is?" Faneng asked calmly.
"Master Fa Neng, this junior was entrusted by the senior Blood Monk to bring something to Kasyapa to preside over." Lu Chen said.
"Is he still alive?" Faneng asked in shock.
"Blood Monk?" Li Yang's face changed drastically and he looked at Lu Chen worriedly.
You must know that the Blood Monk was a traitor to the True Buddha Temple and killed many disciples of the True Buddha Temple. At first, the True Buddha Temple sent people to hunt him down, but unexpectedly, he still escaped.
Li Yang did not expect that Lu Chen would be entrusted by the blood monk to enter the True Buddha Temple.
"Senior Blood Monk is dead." Lu Chen sighed softly and told about the Blood Monk.
"He actually died in Dongji Prefecture, that's all. Since he repented before his death and asked you to hand over that thing to Kasyapa, the poor monk will no longer blame him." Faneng was surprised again, and then
He sighed.
"Master Fa Neng, can you let this junior meet Kasyapa to preside over it?" Lu Chen asked.
"Li Yang, you go back first. I will take Donor Lu Chen to see Master Kasyapa." Faneng stood up and said.
"Yes." Li Yang nodded and turned to Lu Chen and said, 'Little friend Lu, I'm leaving first. If you are willing, you can come to my Li family. You are welcome to come to my Li family at any time.'
"Thank you, Patriarch Li." Lu Chen said with cupped hands.
Li Yang said no more, bowed to Fa Neng, turned around and left.
"Donor Lu Chen, come with me."
After saying this, Faneng moved, stepped into the void, and headed towards the central area of Zhenfo Temple.
In this area, there is a tall tower, which is thousands of feet high and covers an area of several thousand feet. There are overpasses built in all directions, connecting various temples, and it is majestic.
After a while, Huineng took Lu Chen to the east of the top floor of the tower, and a sky bridge fell down.
The overpass is nine feet wide, with stone sculptures standing on both sides, each with its own image and lifelike appearance.
At the end of the overpass is a white jade gate.
There were two monks standing outside the door, who were actually in the Golden Immortal Realm. When they saw the magic power, they all clasped their hands and saluted.
"The poor monk will bring this benefactor Lu Chen to see Kassapa for something important. You two should go and discuss it." Faneng said.
"Yes." One of the monks nodded, glanced at Lu Chen, turned around and entered the Jade Gate.
After a while, the monk walked out and said to Faneng: "Elder Faneng, Master Kasyapa please invite this donor in."
Faneng said to Lu Chen: "Donor Lu Chen, please go in."
Lu Chen saluted and said, "Thank you, Master Faneng."
Faneng nodded, turned and left.
"Donor, the host is already waiting for you inside. You can go in." The monk said to Lu Chen.
"Thank you." Lu Chen nodded and entered the Jade Gate. A wide lobby appeared in front of him. In the center of the lobby, a Buddha statue stood.
In front of the Buddha statue, there is a desk with an incense burner burning on it. The air is filled with a rich scent of incense, which is refreshing.
Just in front of the desk, on a futon, a monk was sitting cross-legged.
The monk is very old, with white eyebrows and white beard. He is holding a bunch of Buddhist beads in his hand. He has a wooden fish placed in front of him. Under his hand, the wooden fish makes a clear and clear thumping sound.
When Lu Chen heard this voice, he felt that his mind was peaceful, there were no distracting thoughts, and all the pores in his body were in a relaxed state, feeling extremely comfortable.
When he looked at this monk, he felt as if he were seeing the Bodhisattva of Treasure Land. It was obvious that the monk was also a supreme immortal.
Lu Chen did not dare to be negligent, so he bowed and said, "Junior Lu Chen has seen Kasyapa preside over it."
The old monk Kassapa opened his eyes with kind eyes, stood up, put his hands together and said: "Old monk Kassapa, Donor Lu is polite."
Lu Chen was a little flattered when he saw the abbot of a temple, a powerful person in the Immortal Realm, being so polite to him, and hurriedly said: "President Kasyapa, you are so polite. This junior came here because he was entrusted by the senior blood monk to hand over this box to the master.
you."
While Lu Chen was talking, he took out a box from the storage ring and handed it to Kasyapa. This box was antique, with densely covered Buddha patterns on it, and faintly emitting Buddha light.
"Thank you very much, Donor Lu." Kasyapa took the box and put his hands together in thanks.
"Master's words are serious." Lu Chen said.
"The thing in the box is the bones of an ancient Buddha in our temple. He was greedy for this thing and stole it." Kasyapa sighed softly.
Lu Chen's face was calm when he heard this, but he was surprised in his heart. The Blood Buddha was only a Xuanxian, but he could steal this thing from the True Buddha Temple where there are so many powerful people?
"He is the senior monk of the old monk. His understanding of Buddhism is one of the best among our senior brothers. If he perseveres, it is not impossible to surpass the old monk. It is a pity." Kasyapa said suddenly. It was obvious.
When he came out, he was very sorry about this incident.
Lu Chen suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the Blood Buddha was able to escape from the Xuanling Immortal State to the Dongji State. He was indeed a profound Buddhist.
"It made Donor Lu laugh." Kasyapa said.
"Master Blood Buddha already knows the mistake he made. Please forgive him, Master." Lu Chen said.
"This is cause and effect. The old monk has already forgiven him." Kasyapa sighed.
"Master has mercy." Lu Chen said.
"Donor Lu, you brought this to the old monk. The old monk is very grateful and willing to do something for you." Kasyapa said.
"I dare to ask Master, if this junior wants to return to the God Realm from the Fairy Continent, is there any way?" Lu Chen asked hurriedly with his heart pounding.
"Donor Lu wants to return to the God Realm, but it's easy. As long as you cultivate to the Ancestral Immortal Realm, you can travel between the Fairy Continent and many divine realms at will. However, Donor Lu, you are not an Ancestral Immortal cultivator, so there is only one way. Please come.
Ancestors will help you open the space passage to the God Realm, so that you can return to the God Realm." Kasyapa said.
Lu Chen was stunned when he heard this, and secretly smacked his tongue.
Returning to the God Realm actually requires the cultivation of the Ancestral Immortal Realm. Isn't this difficult for him?
"Since the old monk promised to do something for you, Donor Lu, I am willing to help you complete it." Kasyapa said.
"Thank you, master. Thank you, master." Lu Chen said with great joy.
"Donor Lu, there is no need to thank me. I can't help you, but there is one person who can help you return to the God Realm." Kasyapa said.
"May I ask Master, who is this person?" Lu Chen asked in confusion.
"Sakyamuni has met the benefactor Lu Chen."
At this moment, a Buddha's light flashed in the space in the hall. The Buddha's light converged, revealing a young monk who was as white as jade and extremely handsome.
"Master Sakyamuni?" Lu Chen said in shock, "You, you are actually in the True Buddha Temple?"
"The poor monk's current Buddhist name is Sakyamuni. Lu Chen's benefactor can just call the poor monk Sakyamuni. Thanks to you, the donor, otherwise the poor monk would not have been able to walk out of the world of gods, come to the Fairy Continent, and then return to the True Buddha Temple." Sakyamuni.
Muni said calmly.
"I just put in a little effort, Master Sakyamuni doesn't need to thank you." Lu Chen said.
"Sakyamuni Buddha, Donor Lu wants to return to the God Realm. Can you help him?" Kasyapa said beside him.
"Sakyamuni...Buddha?" Lu Chen was startled when he heard Kasyapa's name to Sakyamuni. Looking at Sakyamuni's eyes, his pupils shrank suddenly.
With Lu Chen's spiritual power comparable to that of a Xuanxian monk, he could not feel any power fluctuations in Sakyamuni's body.
This, what kind of cultivation is this?
Could it be that Sakyamuni and Kassapa are both immortals?
"Donor Lu doesn't know something. This poor monk is the Buddha from our True Buddhist Temple hundreds of millions of years ago. He died due to a battle with the devil from outside the territory. Fortunately, with the help of the Immortal Lord, he was able to save a trace of his remaining soul and be reincarnated." Shi Shi
Jia explained.
Lu Chen suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Sakyamuni was able to practice as fast as flying when he was in Tenglong Continent, and it was no exception in the God Realm.
Because he is the reincarnation of the Buddha, in other words, Sakyamuni was an ancestral god in his previous life. Now he has returned to the Fairy Continent, and naturally he has made rapid progress in his cultivation.
"Donor Lu, the poor monk has recalled the events of his past life and feels that you, the donor, are somewhat kind. The poor monk guesses that you must have been a heavenly king of the human race." Sakyamuni suddenly said.
Kasyapa heard this and looked at Lu Chen in shock.
Lu Chen smiled bitterly and said: "Master Sakyamuni, when Lu Chen entered the Fairy Continent, he didn't remember the events of his previous life. I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you."
"Did the poor monk guess wrong?" Sakyamuni said calmly.
"Master Sakyamuni, it makes no difference to me whether he is right or not." Lu Chen said.
"The poor monk admired the words of Donor Lu." Sakyamuni folded his hands, bowed, and said, "The poor monk heard from Kassapa that Donor Lu wants to return to the divine world. If the benefactor doesn't mind, the poor monk can help you."
.'
"Master Sakyamuni has returned to the state of ancestral immortality?" Lu Chen said in shock.
