Circles of ripple-like silver light appeared on the surface of the bronze coffin, covering the figures transformed by the will of Dong Bowen and the "Ancestral Dragon Taoist Master".
Even with Chen Xi's ability, they could not hear the voices of the two discussing Tao at all, so they could only watch from a distance.
"Damn it! This guy actually took the opportunity!"
Little Bao, the golden-eyed macaque, was indignant.
"What can we do? If Dong Bowen really succeeds, wouldn't our trip be in vain?"
Ye Yan was a little anxious.
Seeing this, Chen Xi couldn't help but frown and pondered.
"Don't worry, this is fate. We work hard and strive for it. If we fail to get what we want in the end, we will not be able to get this opportunity."
At this moment, Lao Bai seemed to look away, but Chen Xi was keenly aware that Lao Bai seemed to be speaking relaxedly, but in fact he was worried in his heart.
This is normal, after all, this opportunity is related to Lao Bai's advancement. Even if he survives for endless years, he will not be immune to such opportunities.
"If it doesn't work, we will take action to forcibly destroy this discussion!"
There was a ruthless look in Chen Xi's eyes. Dong Bowen's previous attitude had already made him completely judge that the other party was even willing to deal with them for this opportunity. Under such circumstances, what kind of kindness could there be?
?
"It's inappropriate. If you do this, I'm afraid it will cause a reaction from the will mark left by the Ancestral Dragon Taoist Master."
Lao Bai shook his head and flatly rejected Chen Xi's idea.
"This Dong Bowen is simply ambitious and ungrateful. Mr. Da should not have given him guidance on his practice in the first place!"
Ye Yan was furious, "Did he forget that the reason why he was able to reach here was not because of the Great Luo Sky Net and the Long Yuan Hidden Spirit Pearl in your hand, Chen Xi?"
Chen Xi shook his head and said: "You can't say that. We can't break through the second restricted area without his help."
Regarding this, Chen Xi indeed took an open mind and did not feel much resentment.
As he said before, before arriving here, the other party probably had no intention of seizing this opportunity alone, nor did he have any thoughts of murdering them.
Otherwise, as early as when he broke through the second restricted area, with Dong Bowen's power, he could kill them in advance and snatch away the Daluo Tianwang and Longyuan Qianling Pearl, allowing him to break through the barrier and arrive here alone.
Don't wait until now.
"Yes, this Dong Bowen can be considered a gentleman compared to those people with sinister and ruthless minds. It's just a pity that in the end he couldn't resist the temptation of this opportunity and had evil thoughts towards us."
Lao Bai sighed, with a somewhat complicated look on his face. Man died for wealth, and birds died for food. The ancients were honest and could not be deceived.
"Then what should we do next?"
Ye Yan couldn't help but ask.
"wait."
Chen Xi replied without hesitation, "As long as the discussion is not over, it means we still have a chance."
"But what if Dong Bowen succeeds?"
Ye Yan was worried.
"Then it proves that this opportunity is not for us, so we just have to leave."
Chen Xi was silent for a moment and then said.
…
…
I don't know how long it took, but Chen Xi suddenly noticed that the obscure fluctuations on the bronze coffin suddenly started to violently roll.
However, Dong Bowen, who was sitting quietly cross-legged, suddenly trembled, and his calm and calm expression became excited.
What happened?
Chen Xi's heart trembled.
"Impossible! It's absolutely impossible!"
Before Chen Xi could react, Dong Bowen's roar suddenly rang out from the sky and the earth. His voice was full of extreme panic and unwillingness, as if he had encountered something terrible.
And looking at his expression, he was changing drastically at this moment. His breathing was rapid, and he looked almost crazy. How could he still have a trace of the magnanimity and demeanor of the Nine-Star Emperor?
"If you don't know how to stop, everything will be in vain!"
The deep and sonorous voice of the Ancestral Dragon Taoist Master rang out, shaking the surrounding areas.
In an instant, Dong Bowen felt as if he was struck by lightning, his voice suddenly stopped, his whole body was stiff, and his face was dull.
This seems extremely incredible. A Nine-Star Emperor's mental state has been honed to such a solid level, but at this moment he seems to be unable to control himself.
"Haha, this guy seems to have failed in his argument, and he's afraid he won't even be able to get that ray of dragon soul.
Xiaobao was gloating over the misfortune.
"This argument is so powerful that even the Nine-Star Emperor can't resist it. If it were us..."
Ye Yan was a little worried.
"Don't worry, it's just a discussion, not a battle. Dong Bowen can't do it, but that doesn't mean I can't do it, ancestor!"
Lao Bai, on the other hand, was excited and full of confidence. He was known as the "Teacher of All Spirits". He was knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and he was familiar with all kinds of laws in the world. He was not afraid to talk to anyone about Taoism.
When Chen Xi saw this, he couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Wrong, I was indeed wrong..."
Dong Bowen's sigh suddenly sounded in the distance, with a touch of relief, as if a knot in his heart had been broken, and his expression became calm again.
puff!
What surprised Chen Xi and the others was that at the next moment, Dong Bowen actually tore off his left arm, dripping with blood.
But he seemed to be completely unaware of the pain, and said calmly: "My mind is not right, distracting thoughts are arising, greed is causing trouble, and it has blinded my heart. After going through these hardships, I will swear by this arm. If I violate this precept again in my future practice, I will
Suffer the punishment of death from heaven!"
Every word is sonorous, revealing a solemn and pious power, like the sound of the great road that reverberates through the heaven and earth.
"Fellow Taoists, I had evil thoughts in my mind before and failed to eliminate the evil obstacles immediately. This arm is the price I paid."
While speaking, Dong Bowen stood up and suddenly looked at Chen Xi and the others from a distance, with a trace of guilt on his face. He was actually repenting for his previous actions!
Chen Xi and others were all shocked and moved.
"If there is dust in the heart of the Tao, just brush it away. If you don't do this, you are destined to not be able to get this dragon soul. Take it!"
The figure transformed by the will of the Ancestral Dragon Taoist Master spoke, and with a wave of his sleeves, a golden shadow of a dragon suddenly rose into the sky, and poured into Dong Bowen's body in an instant!
Obviously, it must be a ray of dragon soul left by the Ancestral Dragon Taoist Master!
This not only surprised Chen Xi and others, but even Dong Bowen himself seemed to have never thought of it. After being slightly startled, he suddenly showed a complicated look on his face, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you."
After saying that, he left the bronze coffin in a flash, sat cross-legged in the starry sky, and began to meditate with his eyes closed, ignoring everything else.
"Humph, I didn't expect this guy to be a blessing in disguise."
Lao Bai snorted coldly.
"Such a result may also be an experience for him."
Chen Xi said thoughtfully.
"So, are you planning to forgive him?"
Xiaobao Wuzi said angrily.
"He has already let go, why can't we let him go?" Chen Xi sighed, "In the future, we can just draw a line between him and him. There is no need to mention the past grudges."
Chen Xi knew very well that even if Dong Bowen did not apologize and atone for his sins, they would not be able to do anything to each other at all. The current result has undoubtedly settled the grudge between them.
"That's all, you guys chat for now, ancestor, I'll go discuss it with that guy!"
Lao Bai jumped into the air and rushed towards the bronze coffin impatiently.
"Suffering from the jealousy of heaven and the catastrophe that defies heaven, I never thought that there really is a spiritual being like you who knows all things in this world. If you can pass this test, that dragon heart should be yours.
"
"Taoist Master Zulong" seemed to have seen Lao Bai's origin at a glance, and there was a hint of surprise in his words.
"Then let's get started!"
Lao Bai said without any politeness and carelessly.
"as you wish."
"Taoist Master Ancestral Dragon" waved his sleeves, and an obscure wave covered the bronze coffin again, completely hiding his and Lao Bai's figures.
Seeing this, Chen Xi and others immediately stopped talking and looked over.
…
…
An hour later.
Lao Bai's sharp cry suddenly came from the bronze coffin in the distance: "Absurd! The realm of the Tao Master is a realm without rules. He is on par with the sky and is not afraid of all laws. He has built the ultimate foundation and integrated all the ways into his body.
, enough to last through eternity and live forever, your fall is nothing more than an unpredictable calamity!"
"Unpredictable calamities are heavenly calamities. The way of heaven is unpredictable and cannot tolerate those who can compare with it. You cannot understand this truth."
"Taoist Zulong" replied calmly.
"It's a joke. I know everything from eternity and have seen everything in the world. How can there be anything in this world that I don't understand?"
Lao Bai seemed a little irritable.
"Because although you know all the Dharma, you are not a Taoist master, and you have never encountered such a disaster, so what you know is nothing more than talk on paper."
"Ancestral Dragon Taoist Master" speaks every word, revealing a power that directly touches people's hearts.
With these few words, Lao Bai immediately froze up and stood there in a daze.
Chen Xi and others were all horrified when they saw this. They did not expect that Lao Bai was not discussing Taoism with the other party, but was discussing some secrets of the way of heaven that were almost obscure and difficult to fathom!
"Indeed, I am not a Taoist master, and I have never encountered such a disaster, but one day I will understand all this."
After a long time, Lao Bai spoke hoarsely, with a hint of determination in his voice.
"The road against heaven...is not easy to walk."
"Taoist Zulong" said these words, then waved his hand and said, "What you want has been given to you, let's go."
"Thank you."
At this moment, Lao Bai was unusually polite. After saying that, it spread its wings and flew back from the bronze coffin.
"How about it?"
Chen Xi asked quickly.
"Fortunately, it finally succeeded."
Lao Bai did not show much happiness and gave a vague answer before changing the subject and saying, "Chen Xi, you should act quickly, don't waste this opportunity."
Seeing this, Chen Xi stopped asking any more questions, nodded, and ordered Xiaobao and Ye Yan to discuss the Tao with the "Ancestral Dragon Taoist Master" one after another.
"Why don't you go?"
Lao Bai glanced at Chen Xi in surprise.
"I want to wait a little longer."
Chen Xi said casually, but his eyes were looking at the bronze coffin with a calm expression. Even Lao Bai didn't know what he was thinking in his mind.
Lao Bai couldn't help but ask: "Are you worried about failure in discussing Taoism?"
Chen Xi shook his head: "Discussing Tao is not important to me, even if I miss this opportunity, it is not important."
After a pause, he took a deep breath and said: "Now I just want to know how a being like the Ancestral Dragon Taoist fell down back then!"
Lao Bai was stunned for a moment.
