Although the era five hundred years ago was an era of great chaos, it was also an era where heroes and powerful men emerged in large numbers.
Gu Cheng was born in Jingyesi, so he only knew the names of Martial Saint Pei Fei and Luofu Master Ye Fashan. Even the titles of Martial Saint and Earth Immortal in the current cultivation world were based on them.
However, apart from these two people, there were countless talented and beautiful people of that era, such as Zuo Yunzhi, the Luo Jiao who evolved the unfavorable left-handed secret method of transportation into a world-shattering magical power.
There is the 'Reincarnated Maitreya' Zen Master Jikong in front of us. They are all such characters.
When Zen Master Jingkong heard that five hundred years had passed, he couldn't help but sigh: "Five hundred years have passed. Time flies by really fast, but I don't have enough time.
To make a long story short, since you are here, you should know where this place is, right?"
Yun Jing nodded hesitantly and said: "The young monk came here unexpectedly. I heard that this evil god is banned here."
Zen Master Jikong nodded and said: "Yes, it is an evil god, or an unimaginable evil god.
It is not as simple as ghosts and monsters, but an acquired evil god born from wars in the world five hundred years ago, and human flesh and blood twisting the rules!
This kind of evil god is more terrifying than those monsters with various powerful bloodlines or ghost kings and gods, because it is an existence that condenses a trace of divinity. As long as the world is not destroyed, it will not be destroyed. As long as there is evil in the world.
Kill and it will grow.
When I discovered it it wasn't very powerful, it just devoured a village of people and didn't really start to grow.
Once it really starts to grow, it will not be as simple as swallowing up a village, but a catastrophe for the world!"
Zen Master Jingkong smiled bitterly and said: "So I paid the price of my life to ban it and wanted to kill it completely, but my thinking was still too simple.
I am just a mortal. How can a mortal kill a divine being?
I hoped to permanently ban it and the entire village, but it still found a loophole.
During these five hundred years, there will always be people who accidentally enter the village, and the people who die here become its nourishment.
The village appears more and more frequently in the outside world. If this continues, sooner or later it will be truly reborn.
Dear donors, it is fate that you are here. I can only ask you for this matter.
In the last period of time in the village, that is, the moment the village disappeared, my true body was there, and the evil god's true body was also there.
As long as someone can ignite the Buddha bone relics I left behind and burn out the last bit of strength of the old monk, this village can be completely sealed off."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of Chen Jishen and others changed.
Although they entered Fengxian Village, they had not yet faced the evil god directly, but even so, the weirdness of this place left a deep impression on them.
At this time, they actually want to go to the place where the evil god's true body is. What kind of joke is this?
But what Zen Master Jingkong said next made their eyes suddenly light up.
"It will naturally require my power to light the old monk's Buddha bone relics.
Old monk, I did not expect that the origin of this evil god was so great, so I had no choice but to die with him, so no skills were passed down.
Now I have a "Sumitra Sutra" here, which is a rare technique for practitioners of martial arts and Qi refining.
After you have reached great success in cultivation, you can move Mount Sumeru and drain out the sea water, so that water cannot drown you, fire cannot burn you, evil spirits can be exorcised, ghosts can be exorcised and demons can be exorcised.
Whichever benefactor goes to light the Buddha's bone relics, the old monk will naturally teach him this skill.
And as long as the evil god is banned again, the way to leave will be open to everyone."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jishen's eyes suddenly lit up and he quickly said: "I can do that! I have heard about the past deeds of the master, and I have great admiration. Now that I can inherit the master's inheritance, I will definitely live up to the master's expectations!"
Yun Jing's face suddenly showed a look of dissatisfaction.
Zen Master Jingkong is a senior master in his Buddhist sect, so naturally he must be chosen to pass on the legacy.
At the same time, Yun Jing's eyes revealed a blaze that was even hotter than Chen Jishen's.
He is a monk, but an ambitious monk.
Yun Jing was actually very conceited and proud of being able to become a walking monk of Yamantaka Temple in his thirties.
But Yun Jing also felt a little unwilling in his heart. He was unwilling to accept why he did not worship in the Yamantaka Temple, but branched into a branch temple.
Unlike the centralized management of Luo Jiao, the branch temples of Yamantaka Monastery are not weak, so the main temple does not bring all the young disciples from the branch temples back to the main temple for training.
Therefore, Yun Jing was very unwilling to do so. He thought that he was not inferior to those disciples in the main temple who had already become famous in the world, but his practice was delayed just because the resources of the branch temple could not keep up.
But he cannot betray the branch temple and join the main temple. That is a big taboo.
But if today I can obtain the inheritance of Zen Master Jingkong of the ‘Reincarnated Amitabha’, then as long as the news spreads, I will be admitted to the main temple immediately, and my status will definitely be promoted to the level of those core disciples!
At this time, Zen Master Jingkong looked at Chen Jishen, but shook his head and said: "You can't do it, little benefactor, you have too much greed and obsession in your heart, and you can't practice my Buddhist techniques. If I teach you, it will harm you."
"
Chen Jishen's complexion alternated between red and white. Zen Master Jingkong's words clearly meant that he had bad intentions, was not a good person, and was not worthy of practicing Buddhist techniques.
Fang Mingtang quickly said: "What about me, Zen Master?"
Zen Master Jingkong shook his head and said, "You have inner demons. If you don't eliminate the inner demons, if you forcefully practice Buddhist techniques, you will become possessed."
Fang Mingtang's face also looked a little ugly. He was a casual cultivator. Although others didn't know about it in the past, it was obvious that he also had some ulterior secrets.
Yun Jing sneered disdainfully, these two guys still wanted to compete for the opportunity of his Buddhist lineage, they simply didn't know what to say.
Stepping forward and bowing, Yun Jing clasped his hands and said, "Little monk Yun Jing, a walking monk of the Yamantaka Temple, is willing to inherit the mantle of a Zen master and save all people in the world!"
Zen Master Jingkong looked at Yunjing. In terms of identity, he was from the Yamantaka Monastery and was from the Buddhist lineage.
In terms of strength, he has already reached the sixth level in his early thirties, and his talent is outstanding enough.
But at this moment, Gu Cheng suddenly said: "There are two more people here. What does Zen Master Jingkong think of us?"
The techniques mentioned by Zen Master Jikong indeed made Gu Cheng a little jealous.
At the moment, Gu Cheng is majoring in the Marrow Cleansing Sutra, which lays the foundation, and the Xuanyin Lingfei Sutra, which lays the foundation for Qi refining.
These two are definitely not weak, but they cannot be called top-notch peerless skills.
The techniques left by Zen Master Jingkong, a powerful Buddhist master five hundred years ago, are especially rare in the dual cultivation of martial arts and Qi. Isn't it suitable for the dual cultivation of martial arts and Qi, and can also achieve preliminary martial arts?
Gu Cheng who combines Qi and Qi into one?
So he really wanted to compete in this skill.
Yan Beigong on the side shook his head and said: "Brother Gu, just come. I won't join in the fun. I have the skills. I promised others that I would inherit his martial arts in this life. You can learn martial arts, but the skills
But I won’t switch to other majors.”
Zen Master Jingkong looked at Gu Cheng and said in a deep voice: "What do you practice is the Marrow Cleansing Sutra?"
Gu Cheng nodded and said: "Exactly, not only the Marrow Cleansing Sutra, I have also practiced other Buddhist techniques."
After looking at Yun Jing and then at Gu Cheng, Zen Master Jikong couldn't help but hesitate.
Yun Jing was outstanding, and Gu Cheng was equally outstanding. He could feel that Gu Cheng had the aura of Buddhist techniques in his body, and he also practiced both martial arts and Qi refining. This was undoubtedly more outstanding than Yun Jing.
However, Zen Master Jingkong could also see that both Gu Cheng and Yun Jing had hidden thoughts, and neither of them was pure.
Five hundred years ago, he traveled around the world, met countless people, and saw all the seven emotions and six desires. Therefore, he could tell what Chen Jishen and Fang Mingtang showed in their appearance, but he could not see through the hidden true nature of Gu Cheng and Yun Jing.
Heart.
At this time, Yun Jing clasped his hands to Gu Cheng and said, "Master Gu, just leave it to me to ban the evil gods. This matter is the responsibility of my Majesty Vajra Temple.
Zen Master Jingkong is my elder in Buddhism, and the practice should welcome me back to my Yamantaka Monastery. If Master Gu wants to do so this time, I, the Yamantaka Monastery, will be very grateful."
Gu Cheng smiled half-heartedly and said: "It is my duty as Jingyesi to ban the evil gods. Besides, Zen Master Jikong is not from your Yamantaka Temple, right? Why don't you say that you will send the skills back to Jialan Temple?"
?
I cannot bear the gratitude of Yamantaka Monastery, nor do I want it. Who to give the skills to depends on Zen Master Jingkong’s choice.”
There was a cold look in Yun Jing's eyes, but now Zen Master Jikong was in front of him, and he could not openly threaten Gu Cheng with the Yamantaka Temple.
Zen Master Jingkong sighed and said: "A inheritance of exercises is not a precious thing. To me, peerless exercises can save all sentient beings, and an ordinary Diamond Sutra can also save all sentient beings.
But the difference is that if the Diamond Sutra falls into the hands of people with evil intentions, its power is not as powerful as a knife that can kill people.
But if a peerless skill falls into the hands of people with evil intentions, it will cause the destruction of millions of lives.
How can you two guarantee that after accepting the inheritance from the old monk, you will use the exercises for the right path?"
Yun Jing said quickly: "Don't worry, Zen Master, I am a disciple of the Yamantaka Temple. Ever since I became a monk in the temple, I have not forgotten the teachings of my elders, and I am motivated to eradicate evil spirits and save the people of the world.
The Yamantaka Monastery is the guarantee, and the path I take is the right path!"
Yan Beigong, who was in the rear, shook his head slightly. After all, they were all monks. They must have been born with an advantage. How could his own skills be passed on to outsiders instead of those in his own Buddhist sect? Brother Gu was afraid this time
It's about to fail.
However, Gu Cheng shook his head slightly at this time and said: "I'm sorry, Master Zen, I can't guarantee that the exercises will be used in the right way."
As soon as these words came out, everyone else looked at Gu Cheng in surprise. Has this person given up?
Gu Cheng said calmly: "What is the right path and what is the evil path? I was born in Jingyesi, and I have killed countless evil cultivators and ghosts. I can only say that those I kill deserve to die, and those I save deserve to be alive.
of.
Where did Bodhi come from? Only today do I know who I am.
Instead of being obsessed with whether you are taking the right path, it is better to let go of your obsession and follow your own heart."
As soon as these two verses came out, Zen Master Jingkong's eyes suddenly glowed with light when he looked at Gu Cheng.
