Although there were many people entering the temple today, even if they were in groups of three or five, after they dispersed among the woods on this long road, they disappeared quickly like water dripping into the sea.
At this time, Li Yan's face looked neither happy nor sad, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking. He was looking down indifferently.
A monk in green robes appeared there, walking along the smooth stone road towards the mountain gate, occasionally kowtowing to the ground.
The monk in green was only at the golden elixir level, and he walked neither fast nor slowly. Li Yan, who was standing on the tree, was always paying attention to his every move.
Not all the monks who appeared here flew directly to the mountain gate and landed. On this road into the mountain, in addition to the pilgrims entering and leaving the temple, there were also some monks who walked in.
Li Yan has been observing for a long time. Each of these monks has a pious look on his face. He is turning the Buddha beads in his hand, walking closely and chanting something in his mouth.
These monks can obviously fly, but they choose to walk in the same direction. This should also be a Buddhist way of cultivating the mind.
Especially this kind of low-level monks, among whom the most people practice hard, they are cultivating the Buddha's mind. In the future, when the cultivation level is slightly higher, the time of meditating and chanting sutras will become longer and longer...
Looking at the monk below, there was no one else within more than ten miles in front and behind. Li Yan, who was at the top of the tree, gently tapped down with one hand, and a stream of magic power quietly enveloped him.
The monk who was walking devoutly below suddenly fell to the ground without warning. The next moment, the monk had disappeared...
About half a stick of incense later, the figure of the monk in green robes appeared again on the road into the mountain, which was a deserted place.
He first looked ahead in confusion, and then the next moment, he turned around and looked around, and found that no one else appeared.
"Amitabha!"
Immediately, he walked forward slowly again. When he lowered his head just now, he felt as if he was in a trance.
This is actually extremely rare for a monk with a strong mind, especially during this kind of mental training.
"By purifying your mind and keeping your will, you can reach the path. It's like polishing a mirror, removing the dirt and leaving it clear..."
He sighed slightly in his heart. It seemed that his Buddha mind was still covered in dust and needed to continue to be tempered.
…………
At this time, Li Yan had already entered Sanze Temple. He was not one of Tinglan's people. It could be said that Li Yan was familiar with things like assassination.
He didn't have to make the entire plan at all. When he got here, he just looked at the scene outside the mountain gate and immediately knew what he was going to do?
You can capture a Buddhist monk to search for his soul, but the status difference between him and Yun Chen is more than a thousand miles.
If one were to distinguish the various levels according to the low-level, middle-level, and high-level levels in the fairy world, the other party would simply be just a young novice monk in the temple.
It seems to have no effect at all, but to Li Yan, its value is equally high. He knows how to use it rationally to achieve maximum lethality.
Li Yan quickly obtained the strength distribution of Sanze Temple from the other party's memory, as well as the power of the temple's protective formation, and the inspection status of the temple.
There is also information about Monk Yunchen's appearance, where he usually lives, and whether Yunchen is currently out...
After getting this information, Li Yan's subsequent assassination plan appeared in his mind in a very short time.
Since Sanze Temple spreads alms and Buddhist gates are widely opened, except for some important places in the temple, such as Sutra Pavilion, Luohan Hall, and Pagoda Forest, there are always separate magic circles for protection.
The temple protection formation that basically covers the entire temple is only in its most basic open state and will not prevent pilgrims from entering most parts of the temple.
This allows pilgrims to offer incense in every hall with a pious heart, and through the sacred majesty of these places, it can inspire them and make them wholeheartedly worship the Buddha.
Although this kind of array is only in a basically open state, it can fully operate the array in the shortest possible time without requiring a longer opening process due to shutdown.
At this time, Li Yan had transformed into a middle-aged pilgrim. Under the protection of the guardian wings, he had already become an ordinary mortal, and he entered the main hall very smoothly.
If Monk Yun Chen is in Minghua Temple, even if Li Yan is protected by a guard, he will completely transform into a mortal and enter. He needs to find out first before he can consider anything.
That is the foundation of this Buddhist sect. Not to mention the terrifying old monks hidden in it, will they be able to practice supernatural powers such as clairvoyance to understand everything?
Within the Buddhist sect with this kind of foundation, there should be an unexpected Buddhist treasure, which has the ability to ward off all evil spirits and evil spirits, and it is very possible to see through the differences between people.
Li Yan does not really think that the world is invincible, but in a place like Sanze Temple, Li Yan still has some confidence.
First, after obtaining the strength of the opponent's strongest master through soul searching, even if the monks here have practiced the great supernatural power of clairvoyance, their own realm is still there. The guarding wings are refined by the tribulation monks.
Second, even if the opponent's clairvoyance can see through it, Li Yan is still very confident that he can break through and escape. Moreover, he only hides his cultivation and will not act until he is not sure.
Monks who have cultivated into hiding are everywhere in the fairy world, but the other party can see that the magic weapon on their body is powerful, which will expose the existence of Shouyi.
But since he is here to assassinate others, how could Li Yan not take any risks and think about everything before and after, then he might as well not get involved in this muddy water...
After paying tribute to the fragrance, Li Yan walked around to the side of the Main Hall. His consciousness secretly scanned quickly, sensing everything around him.
There are indeed formations all around, but the fluctuations in the formations are very weak, almost non-existent.
"There are three auras from the Void Refining Realm inside, which is consistent with the information obtained by Soul Search and what Tinglan said.
The cultivation level of the abbot Yun Chen and the two monks in the temple is at this level, which means that Yun Chen may not have gone out and is among these three people.
But the formation fluctuations in those three places are too strong, indicating that they are key protection areas..."
Li Yan sensed the strong aura, and at the same time, the location of those people also gave him a warning sign.
Then with an extremely pious look on his face, he went to other side halls, offering incense and kowtowing to the statues along the way, and slowly approached a place in the soul search in the dark.
An hour later, Li Yan clasped his hands and walked out of a side hall. His eyes fell on a circular arch not far away.
There were very few pilgrims coming here at the moment, and Li Yan also deliberately avoided the palace master, so that no one would notice him.
The destination he wanted to go to was not near here, but this was the entrance he chose to make his journey more convenient.
Li Yan pretended that after offering incense, he slowly admired the delicately trimmed flowers and plants!
Soon after, we approached the circular arch, where birds were chirping quietly and only the breeze was blowing.
At a certain moment, when there was no one around, the figure who was bending close to the courtyard wall to watch the flowers suddenly disappeared out of thin air with the breeze...
When night fell, Shi Ji, who was dressed in a moonlight monk's robe, returned to the Zen room with satisfaction in his eyes, and then walked slowly to the table.
Then he gently raised his arm and flicked the snow-white monk's robe towards the table, and suddenly a red date appeared on the table.
The surface of the jujube is red, but there are some white threads swimming under the red light, changing from time to time, like the changing combination of clouds blown by the wind, full of Taoist charm.
A smile appeared on Shi Ji's face. After obtaining this raw material, the magic weapon that had been prepared for a long time could finally be refined.
Shi Ji is quite satisfied with his current situation. Although he is only a monk in the Nascent Soul Realm, since Abbot Yunchen came, he has taken a fancy to his alert and cautious mind.
Then he left some things to him. As the other party saw, Shi Jiguo quickly seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Every time something was assigned by the abbot, he would rack his brains to do it perfectly.
After he gave perfect results many times, he really got the abbot's eyes of approval. Although the abbot didn't say anything, he started to think more and more highly of Shi Ji.
Shi Ji knew that his cultivation level was too low, and he did not expect to become the abbot's disciple, but as long as he could make the abbot take him seriously, that would be fine.
Looking at the red dates on the table, Shi Ji felt very happy, and he reached for the red dates.
But at this moment, he felt his body suddenly tighten, and then the arm he was about to raise was firmly fixed there.
This made him feel horrified. Although he didn't know what was going on, he knew something was wrong and wanted to call for help.
But just as his mouth opened and closed, his whole vision went dark and he lost consciousness. The moment Shi Ji fell, a shadow suddenly appeared behind him.
Li Yan looked at Shi Ji who was lying softly on the ground, with an expression of indifference on his face. This person was exactly the target he found from the memory of the monk in blue.
Following the memory of the monk in blue, he found the Zen room where Shi Ji was and found out that the formation in the Zen room had been activated.
But this was only the residence of a Nascent Soul-level Arhat monk. Li Yan felt that the "Heaven-stealing Pa" could still open the opponent's formation restrictions, allowing him to sneak in quietly.
"Breaking Prison" is very powerful for breaking restrictions, but this technique also has its own drawbacks. It is violent and violent. Once used, there will often be a lot of noise.
Li Yan also sensed the aura fluctuations in this Zen room, and was basically sure that Shi Ji was in the room and did not go out at will.
This is easy to understand. According to what I learned from the soul, as long as Yun Chen is in the temple, this Shakyoshi will basically not leave the temple.
And just when Li Yan took out the "Heaven-Stealing Handkerchief" and was about to quietly break the ban, the meditation room opposite suddenly opened, and Shi Ji, wearing a moonlight monk's robe, walked out quickly.
Li Yan recognized the other party at a glance. Such an unexpected situation made Li Yan stop his actions immediately.
He can sneak in quietly, but if he takes action directly here, a large living person suddenly disappears out of thin air, which may still cause unnecessary trouble.
So Li Yan followed quietly. There were three strong men in this temple. He entered normally as a pilgrim, and he hid behind him without others noticing.
As long as Li Yan doesn't force his way into some places, Li Yan, who is already in hiding, still has a certain degree of confidence in himself.
Soon after, he saw Shi Ji entering a palace, and Li Yan immediately stopped outside and did not follow him.
And he waited there for more than an hour. Li Yan was not impatient at all and kept hiding in the bushes in the corner.
Hidden killing is never smooth sailing, it is often more about waiting and planning, like a poisonous snake dormant in the darkness.
When Shi Ji walked out of that palace, he went to other places, so Li Yan could only patiently observe in secret.
Sometimes he simply stopped at a certain place and no longer followed him personally, but followed the other person with his spiritual consciousness. It was not until dark that Shiji returned to his meditation room.
The moment the other party opened the Zen room, Li Yan immediately stuck behind him and followed closely...
In the Zen room, Li Yan was still dressed as a middle-aged pilgrim, his face was as usual, and with a slight lift, Shi Ji's body stood up instantly from the ground, and his head was held in Li Yan's palm the next moment.
After about a cup of tea, Li Yan withdrew his palm and Shi Ji fell to the ground again.
"That Yun Chen just asked Shi Ji to handle some matters in the temple. There is no news about Chong Yangzi. However, the other party has seen Monk Yun Xin and came here again three years ago..."
From the other party's memory, Li Yan did not find anything like what Yun Chen asked Shi Ji to do, to pay attention to the news about Chunyang Hall.
This shows that Shi Ji still does not regard this person as a confidant in Yun Chen's heart, which is different from the previous soul search results of the monk in blue.
In that monk's impression, Shi Ji was a very important figure in the temple. He was a disciple whom Abbot Yunchen valued, but it was obvious that he overestimated this person.
Because there was an error in the information he received, Li Yan stood there with his head lowered and thought quickly. Shi Ji was not Yun Chen's confidant, but he was also a disciple whom Yun Chen trusted.
"Under this situation, the plan needs to be changed. What I need is an opportunity. Since it is an opportunity, the time it can be used may not be too long..."
For about a quarter of an hour, Li Yan carefully reviewed the information he had obtained from Shi Ji's Soul Search.
Only then did he raise his head again. He planned to take action now. The moon was high and the wind was dark. It was a murderous night. This was also the time when the other party was not expecting it.
Then, Li Yan once again sucked Shi Ji into his palm, and he began to remove the memory of the moment before the other person fell into coma.
Then he was allowed to continue to fall into a coma. For the sake of conservatism, Shi Ji would only wake up after two hours.
Thinking back to that time, I should have done everything, but the other party cannot die for the time being and needs to live a little longer.
Therefore, Li Yan is not afraid that the other party's memory will be found out during the investigation in the future. He will make Shi Ji disappear completely before leaving...
In the abbot's room, there was a monk who was about twenty years old, handsome and wearing a yellow cassock. He closed his eyes and moved his lips slightly while chanting the scriptures silently.
The monk gives people the impression of being spotless, as if he is a pure lotus flower in the world. People will feel respectful at first sight.
At this moment, the delicate monk slowly opened his eyes, and then looked forward.
Although the Zen gate has always been closed, his black and white eyes seem to be able to penetrate all obstacles.
"See the abbot!"
Outside the abbot's room, Shi Ji was holding a jade slip in his hand and standing there with a respectful expression. He knew that the place in front of him was the most heavily guarded place in Sanze Temple.
Even the Sutra Pavilion, which contains treasures, cannot compare with this place. Not only is the formation here the most powerful, but the abbot also has magical powers that reach heaven and earth.
"What's the matter with you?"
The door of the Zen room was not opened, but Yun Chen's clear voice came from inside, but there was a kind of coldness in the voice, and there was indifference in the dust-free nature.
"Abbott, another batch of repair materials for the Puxian Hall have arrived today. Here are the detailed descriptions of the materials. You still need to confirm them!"
Shi Ji's voice came from outside.
"Repair materials...how come it's so fast this time? Didn't we just collect some the day before yesterday?"
Yun Chen's voice was full of doubts. He asked Shi Ji to be responsible for renovating the Puxian Hall, and this time his requirements for materials were very strict.
Last time because of this matter, he even urged Shi Ji a few words. Some spiritual trees finally arrived the day before yesterday. Unexpectedly, new materials arrived so soon.
"This is something that I have urged some time ago, but it still came later than those spiritual trees. We just arrived here today.
Because the disciple couldn't determine the arrival time before, he didn't dare to say it in advance. Please check if there is anything wrong, and the disciple will follow up immediately!"
Shi Ji still replied respectfully.
The eyes of Yun Chen, who was sitting cross-legged in the room, flickered slightly, and then with a slight movement of thought, the door of the abbot's room opened silently.
