Chapter 163: Wonderful Dharma and Lotus Buddha Formation
Yunlong collected the insect clouds. He was also very happy in his heart: "The harvest of twenty-one thousand three hundred and sixty-five is really not small. After several mutations, these red-eyed golden ants have evolved to be able to surround and kill masters in the transformation stage. Such power
It has exceeded the original racial restrictions of the Red-Eyed Golden Ant, and its potential has greatly increased, and it can be called a new species.
If I go back and study it carefully, it will definitely become more powerful after being cultivated through the art of refining Gu in Southern Xinjiang. Maybe it will become a more powerful variety than the legendary 'Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu'. I really look forward to it."
He took another look at Zhang Yun, who was complimenting him but a little distracted, and said with a smile: "Young man Zhang can't bear to part with those dead red-eyed golden ants."
Zhang Yun couldn't help but look embarrassed when he was called out and said to Yun Long with embarrassment: "Senior, you also know that this junior is an alchemist who is not good at fighting. If he is not good at refining weapons, he is good at refining elixirs. This red-eyed golden ant is extremely rare, and this time it happened
The appearance of such a large group is really a strange technique.
Moreover, they have devoured countless treasures of heaven and earth, and metal auras. They have undergone several mutations before they have evolved to this level, which is a rare material for alchemy and weapon refining. Even if they die, there will still be a lot of auras involved in their bodies.
...Before I joined Taiyuan, I was quite poor, so I couldn’t bear to waste it. It’s really heartbreaking to think that so many treasures are left uncollected and will only be used as fertilizer for plants and trees. I’m in a daze for a moment, please forgive me, senior.” After saying this, Zhang Yun smiled sheepishly.
laugh.
The three friends of Yunzhen next to him reacted immediately after hearing Zhang Yun's explanation and couldn't help but feel a little moved. "Since Zhang Yun is good at alchemy and has been helped by us this time, he already has some friendship. If he collects the corpses of these red-eyed golden ants,
Letting him make the elixir will surely benefit us a little bit." After thinking about it, they couldn't help but turn their attention to Yunlong.
Yunlong looked at their eyes and how could he not know what they were thinking? He smiled and waved his hands and said: "You are a very careful boy. You also have the ability to turn waste into treasure even if you don't see it. Well, I am not a stingy person."
You go ahead now." After saying that, he handed him another token; the token said: "After entering the camp, use the breath of this token to find me. I have something to ask you. The three of you didn't see it clearly this time.
So I took the risk and almost got trapped. Follow me back to the camp to find a quiet room to think about the gains and losses of this battle." Then he waved to Zhang Yun and glared at Yunzhen and his three friends before leading them away.
Zhang Yun was overjoyed to get his wish and quickly thanked Yunlong and quickly flew back to the place where a large number of red-eyed golden ant corpses were left and started to get busy. What surprised him was that in addition to the dead red-eyed golden ant corpses, he also
He found dozens of lightly injured, half-dead and unevolved red-eyed golden ants, and quickly used magic to freeze them and put them in storage bags (his cultivation level was not enough to open up the mustard space). These mutated red-eyed golden ants
Golden ants are rare alien species and can be a powerful help if refined with insect repellent techniques.
After cleaning the "battlefield", he entered the Song Dynasty's military camp. The soldiers guarding the camp checked his token at home and respectfully gave him a military salute before letting him into the camp.
Yunlong was resting in one of his tents in the camp. Suddenly his expression changed, he smiled and said to the outside: "Since you're here, come in." After he finished speaking, he heard someone outside saying hello first, and then saw Zhang Yun, who had packed his clothes, opened the door.
The camp curtain came in.
Seeing that there was still joy on his face, Yunlong couldn't help but smile and said: "Young man Zhang has gained a lot this time, right?" Seeing Zhang Yun's high interest, Yunlong knew that he must have gained a lot of benefits, and even he could get it with a little calculation.
We know the general situation. But why bother? If everything has to be calculated, what's the point of living if we know everything clearly? Life is wonderful because of the unknown.
Zhang Yun never thought that he could hide it. Yunlong nodded and said with embarrassment: "Junior, thank you, senior, for taking care of me." He knew in his heart that if this harvest was exchanged for cultivation materials, he would be able to make some pills so that he would not need them for decades.
I am worried about practicing.
Yunlong looked at the boy opposite (——Zhang Yun. Although he has been practicing for nearly a hundred years, cultivators seek the way to immortality. Aging is much slower than that of normal people. In addition, his whole body has already undergone a rebirth when he has just entered the stage of transformation, so he is still the same to this day.
Appearance in his twenties) felt a sigh of relief in his heart that it took him more than fifty years to reach his level even after inheriting the Holy Spirit Tree's cultivation. This is not counting the ignorance accumulation period of his previous thousand years of Oolong Sea Snake.
.God is so kind to mankind.
After calming down, Yunlong said to Zhang Yun: "I'm afraid you didn't come privately but accepted the entrustment from the court." Without the court entrusting him, it is very dangerous for an alchemist to walk alone even if he has not entered the stage of transformation. Without him, it is very dangerous.
The alchemist's "combat effectiveness" is really poor.
Zhang Yun quickly replied: "Senior, I am indeed entrusted by Prime Minister Liu He. The materials for transporting cultivation materials to my comrades in the army are all inspected by senior here." After that, he handed over the Qiankun bag containing the cultivation materials.
As a result, Yunlong only scanned the Qiankun Bag with his soul and found out that it contained enough cultivation materials for one month. Yunlong was satisfied and said to Zhang Yun: "You have done a good job and my army will be able to capture Jinling in another month."
Already."
Zhang Yun couldn't help but asked curiously: "Senior, I heard from my comrades in the army that in front of Jinling City, several sects from the Southern Tang Dynasty jointly set up a very powerful formation to fight with our army. It has been in a stalemate for two months.
May I ask why seniors are so confident now?"
When he entered the camp, he didn't go straight to Yunlong's camp. He also inquired about the situation from the cultivators he met on the way. He was the first to get information when he first arrived in a foreign place. Those cultivators saw that he was a master in the transformation stage and did not dare to neglect to tell the general situation.
Speak clearly to him and let him know what kind of difficulties the army is encountering now, which is why he has this question.
"Hahahaha, that's a good question. I'll tell you in detail and listen to it——" Yunlong spoke to Zhang Yun with great interest.
"The formation under Jinling City was jointly set up by the Maoshan Sect, the Chongyang Sect, the Tianjian Sect, the Buddhist Zen Sect, the Sanlun Sect, and other sects. However, the Maoshan Sect, the Chongyang Sect, and the Tianjian Sect are only good at magic.
, but he was not very proficient in swordsmanship, so he had to rely on Zen, Sanlunzong and other sects to coordinate the formation.
This formation is called the "Wonderful Dharma Flower and Lotus Formation", which is a combination of the "Bodhi Dharma Formation" of Zen Buddhism and the "Fahua Golden Lotus Formation" of Sanlun Sect.
The golden lotus blocks people's way; there are also Buddhist Zen sounds and the sound of Dharma conch can confuse people's hearts and persuade them to follow the Buddha, which is really difficult to deal with."
At this point, Yunlong sighed and said: "To put it bluntly, in the past two months, dozens of cultivators in the Qi-into-Body stage have been fascinated by the formation and lost consciousness; there are even two cultivators in the God-Transformation stage.
You are trapped in the formation and cannot escape. In my opinion, under normal conditions, this formation is presided over by someone, and even three or two masters cannot break it."
Zhang Yun heard this and hurriedly said: "In that case, why don't you, senior, summon the masters from several sects in the Song Dynasty to come and help us? If they are reasonable, they can definitely break through this formation."
Yunlong glanced at Zhang Yun and said angrily: "You brat, you don't believe in my strength so much? Are you asking me to bring in reinforcements?"
Zhang Yun smiled awkwardly and said: "Senior, it's not that I don't believe in your strength but that the opponent has too many people. If you win with more, you won't win with force. We don't need to fight with the opponent when we are at a disadvantage."
Yunlong laughed and scolded: "You brat is quite good at talking. But you underestimate my strength. Even though they have many people, in my eyes they are just like chickens and dogs. They can be defeated just by talking and laughing!"
As Yun Long spoke, a sense of pride arose from Yun Long's body as he regarded the world's heroes as if they were nothing. At this moment, Zhang Yun seemed to really feel that nothing in the world could defeat Yun Long.
"Although I haven't taken action directly in the past two months, I have been studying the structure of this formation. The operation method has already produced results and I am very sure of breaking the formation! Even though the opponent has several masters of the Void Return Stage in charge, I still
I will tell them to admit defeat!"
At this point, Yunlong said to Zhang Yun, who was a little surprised: "The reason why I tell you so much is not only because I think you have postponed your extension, but also because you have entered the stage of transformation and are eligible to participate in the formation-breaking candidates. This is something I have done since ancient times.
The alchemy furnace obtained from the monk's cave is already close to the best magic weapon in terms of quality. You can take it and refine it carefully to use it to break the formation and protect yourself. I will teach you the method of breaking the formation. This is all you need...
"Once the formation is successfully broken, this 'Five Yun Cauldron' will belong to you." After saying that, he took out a small cauldron with a simple style and made of five-color materials and threw it to Zhang Yun.
Zhang Yun stupidly passed the small cauldron, but was almost knocked over by its weight. He quickly conveyed the True Yuan Luck Envoy Treasure Collection Technique into it, and then accepted the sudden reward. Once the magic weapon is refined, it can be greatly improved.
But just now it was just a reduced form of the "Five Yun Cauldron", but its weight was not reduced, which made Zhang Yun almost make a fool of himself.
Zhang Yun calmed down and could not calm down the joy in his heart and quickly expressed his determination to Yunlong: "Senior, don't worry, I have already memorized what you just taught me. I will definitely practice hard when I go back to live up to senior's respect!"
"Well, that's good. I don't have anything else to do. Please step back." Yunlong said with satisfaction.
"It's senior." Zhang Yun made another sincere gift and happily put the "Five Yun Cauldron" into his storage bag before exiting the camp and following the instructions of the lieutenant general to his assigned camp.
The harvest this time was too great. He still can't calm down and needs to take a good rest to consolidate and practice the technique of breaking the formation tomorrow.
"Hehe, I didn't expect to meet someone with such ancient bloodline. No wonder the alchemy talent is so amazing. Oh, do you want to pass on the 'Shennong Manuscript' found in Shennongjia to him? Well, it still depends on his performance in the future.
Boy Zhang, don't let me down." Yunlong murmured as he looked in the direction Zhang Yun was leaving.
He then stood up and walked out of the door. Amidst the exclamations, he stood up in the air and looked at the golden formation outside Jinling City opposite. "Tomorrow we will break the formation in one fell swoop. The Song Dynasty was the first country to be annexed after the founding of the People's Republic of China."
It's the Southern Tang Dynasty!" Yunlong couldn't help but feel excited when he thought of this. He couldn't help but look up to the sky and howl like a dragon roaring and a tiger roaring, shaking the nine heavens. A majestic and sacred aura rose up from his body and spread outward. At this moment, he was like a transformation.
For the Nine Heavens Dragon God to look down upon the world!
Opposite, in the "Wonderful Dharma and Lotus Buddha Array", people are dancing in the sky, Arhats are chanting sutras, Buddhas are everywhere, golden lotuses are everywhere, and the meaning of peace and compassion is reflected in Buddhism. However, at the center of the array, there is an isolated space with no golden light and only fresh air.
Several cultivators dressed as monks and Taoists were sitting here and discussing something.
A fat monk with a fat head, big ears, and a shiny face, wearing an orange cassock with his breasts exposed, was speaking: "Fellow Taoists, according to the agreement, as long as I hold on to the formation for one month, the Song Dynasty will be considered defeated. By then, how many factions will we have?
My status in the new dynasty remains unchanged and I can still enjoy the worship in the mortal world. It is all thanks to everyone." When he opened his mouth, he smiled as funny as if Maitreya Buddha had come into the world.
This person is the presiding officer of the "Lotus Golden Lotus Formation" by the great elder "Laughing Maitreya" and Guanxin monk of Sanlunzong.
"Everywhere, our sects have worked together to be able to hold on with the help of this 'Buddhist' sect formation. All Taoist friends have contributed a lot to this, haha. I really want to see what happens after Song Guo loses the bet.
How can Long Zihui be so arrogant?"
The one who spoke was none other than the first Buddhist monk of the Bodhidharma Hall of the Zen Sect. He practiced physical cultivation and combat skills, but his cultivation of mental state was far behind. He was still unable to achieve the state of "the heart is like a bright mirror, unstained by dust". An irony of Yu Longzi before.
I still have a grudge about it.
The other three people on one side, Taoist Master Qingzhi from Maoshan, Ziyang Zhenren, the leader of the Chongyang Sect, and Jian Wuchen, the leader of the Tianjian Sect, felt very uncomfortable when they heard what Fa Yuan said just now. The words "Buddha" and "Help" were specially emphasized.
The purpose, which is obvious without asking, is to remind these few that most of the credit goes to Buddhism. Without me, Buddhism would not have been able to win the bet by setting up the formation.
These masters are also in the stage of returning to the void. Even Ziyang Zhenren and Jian Wuchen have reached the middle stage of returning to the void. They are higher in cultivation than the other four, but they are not good at using powerful formations and cannot show their power. In the past two months, they have only
Being able to squat in this "Wonderful Dharma and Lotus Buddha Formation" to assist the two hosts in attacking those cultivators who enter the formation.
However, Yunlong had a keen eye and knew how powerful this formation was, so he never sent any masters of the Void Returning Stage into the formation. He only sent some cultivators of the Divine Transformation Stage, and even more cultivators of the Qi-Entering Body Stage, to explore the formation and stifle the few masters.
Don't fight. It's not a problem to let these little monks pry into the secrets of the formation. If there are a few formation geniuses mixed in and see through the secrets of the big formation and come back to break it, it will be their mistake.
Let's fight these little monks. Their cultivation level is too low and they are not worthy of being their opponents. Fighting against them is simply lowering your status. If you accidentally kill one or two and spread the word, it will be a joke in the world of cultivation.
"A master in the stage of returning to the void stage brutally beat to death a junior in the stage of Qi training (that is, in the stage of introducing Qi into the body), who has no manners or morals like his predecessors." "A certain grandmaster fought with the enemy for several months and finally killed a monk in the Transformation stage and a monk in the stage of Qi training.
The other two have no results." The same rumors related to derogatory terms such as bullying the small and being shameless will definitely become a stain in their lives that will never be erased.
At that time, in order to protect its own reputation, even if the sect does not remove them, they will be sent to the cold palace to think about their mistakes. This kind of thing has precedent in the world of cultivation. And maybe such rumors will be spread by the two great monks in front of them.
Spread the word. The dispute between Buddhism and Taoism has been going on for countless years. No one will give up the opportunity to suppress it.
Therefore, these masters only used some means to expel the young monks in the Qi training stage who entered the formation; the only two cultivators in the God Transformation stage only used the power of the formation to trap them in the formation.
He and Fa Yuan use the method of Buddhist Zen chanting to confuse their minds, hoping to plant the seeds of Buddhism deep in their Taoist hearts so that they can transform their minds towards Buddhism and become Buddhist disciples. - Of course, in Buddhism, this is called transformation.
"Buddhists have mastered the art of eloquence and can bloom lotuses with their mouths, but I won't argue with him." The three of them thought to themselves. Jian Wuchen said: "Although the formation has been stable in the past two months, the masters of the other side's return to virtual stage have failed.
Since it never appeared, I suspect that the other party either does not have enough strength or has a conspiracy!"
The other four people's hearts tightened. Jian Wuchen's words made sense. It was impossible for the other party to lose the bet to their side in vain. If they didn't pay attention to it, it was impossible. So many offerings were enough to support the consumption of several sects. How could they not pay attention to it?
Then there was only one possibility. Several masters looked at each other, "There must be a conspiracy!" They came to the same answer.
At this moment, Yunlong's long roar came. "This is the voice of You Longzi! There is such confidence in the roar. It seems that the other party is already sure of breaking the formation. For the future of our factions, please put aside your prejudices and fight for this."
Fight!" Jian Wuchen said. After listening, several people thought about it and nodded.
It is only right to put aside the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism to deal with the challenge at hand. "You Longzi, if you have the ability, come and break the formation!" Several masters shouted in their hearts, with strong fighting spirit in their eyes.
(Try to separate the narrative haha, it seems that I have made a mistake again, but I think this description is necessary. The description before the war is also a foreshadowing. Digging holes, digging holes...o(n_n)o~)
