Volume 1: Lunar New Year Rising Chapter 23: Exchange of Tokens
Xinru went straight to the point and said: "Master Fayuan, I am entrusted by the prince and the master to make a deal with you. Master, how can I return the jade pendant? Just put forward any conditions, and the prince and the master will do their best to satisfy them."
Dharma Yuan's arrival of Xinru was both expected and unexpected. I fully expected that Zhengde would come to the door in person, or that the prince would find him secretly.
He said to Monk Xinru: "You dare to come here when you are in the early stage of your innate life, so you are quite courageous. Tell me, what conditions are they willing to give in exchange for the jade pendant?"
"Then what do you want, Master Fanyuan? The prince said that except for the position of prince, I can't give it to you, and everything else can be exchanged."
It seems that this jade pendant is much more valuable than I imagined.
Dharma Yuan said to Xin Rudao: "I heard from Zhengde that this pendant is a sacred object of Tiandu Kingdom. Can you tell me what it is?"
Xinru smiled and said: "I was sent by the master and the prince today to see you for the purpose. The first thing is to tell you the function of this jade pendant. Because if I tell you, you won't be able to use it."
"This is a token, a token exclusively for the royal family, and is limited to the Xiahou bloodline."
"Token? Exclusively for Xiahou bloodline." Although it was only a simple sentence, it contained a lot of information, so Fa Yuan repeated it.
Xin Rudao: "Not only Tiandu Kingdom has such tokens. The royal family of Longteng Kingdom and the royal family of Biluo Kingdom have such sacred items for the exclusive use of the royal bloodline?"
"The royal family has them? There are so many tokens from more than 200 countries around the world. Why have I never heard anything about them?"
Xinru raised three fingers and said: "There are only three in the world, one for each of the three major empires."
"So, what is the function of this sacred object? In other words, who is this token given to? How to use it?"
"This is not something I can know. My words have been brought here. It is up to Master Fa Yuan to decide whether to exchange and how to exchange. The young monk takes his leave."
Xin Ru is in his thirties and has just entered Xiantian. In front of such a virtuous and eminent monk as Dharma Yuan, he is calm and composed, advancing and retreating in an orderly manner, without any hesitation in his words.
Fayuan gave him a high look and asked: "That day in the woods, when my Qi machine locked onto you, you looked surprised. I remember that we had never met before that."
Xin Rudao: "My martial arts skills are mediocre and difficult to achieve, I only have a few strengths. My master accepted me as his disciple.
That’s why they took a fancy to me.”
He smiled and said: "My perception ability is stronger than ordinary people. In the acquired realm, I can reach the qi mechanism of the innate realm. Now in the ancestral realm, I can reach the qi sense of the heaven and human realm. That night, I was in
Your energy is sensed in the tent."
Fayuan said: "No wonder, in your early thirties, your martial arts has reached the level of innateness. Although you are a few years behind me, it can be seen that you are also a rare genius in martial arts, and you have such an ability to sense that surpasses others. Zhengde accepts you as my
Disciples also have vision."
"Master, you were born with innate talent at the age of sixteen, and reached the realm of gods and humans at the age of twenty-two. My talent and lack of learning are not worth mentioning." He was humble.
Fayuan smiled and said meaningfully: "I remember in the woods you said that I was young and promising. To prevent me from growing up, I should be removed as soon as possible to prevent trouble before it happens."
"You are also a rare genius in Tiandu Kingdom. If you come here alone, are you not afraid that I will leave you behind to prevent trouble before it happens?"
"You can't, hehe." Xinru said with a smile, he smiled very easily: "This is one of my strengths. Not only do I have strong sensing ability, but I can also predict danger. I calculated it for an hour, but there is really no
Discover what might happen if I come to see you."
"Furthermore, with your big heart, you shouldn't be afraid that I, a junior, will overtake you and challenge you, right? If you didn't even have this big heart, you wouldn't have such outstanding achievements in Buddhism and martial arts.
"
Even with praise and humility, Dharma Yuan got to know Xinru all over again.
He said to Xinru: "If Master Xinru is not in a hurry to go back, we can sit down and talk about what conditions the prince can offer in exchange for the jade pendant."
"Master Fayuan has achieved the status of Zen master through Buddhism. After this Buddha fight, it won't be long before he will reach a higher level and receive the title of great Zen master. Your martial arts practice has reached the highest level. In the future, you will be the leader of the Longteng Buddhist world and a leader in the country.
In a hundred years, it will be you." Xinru analyzed.
"So, the prince really doesn't know what else Master Fayuan needs. If Master Fayuan wants to enfeoff the feudal lords and establish his own country, the prince is willing to give his full help."
Founding a country? Fayuan shook his head. The world has been in history for more than five thousand years, and dynasties have come and gone. Except for Longteng, Tiandu, and Biluo, the three empires have a long history and remain standing.
Other small countries were divided and combined, with frequent turnover, and could only rely on the big countries to survive. Even the Longteng Kingdom was enslaved by Tiandu for more than two thousand years, and was almost destroyed several times.
Emperor Sheng ascended the throne, and Emperor Longteng worked hard to become stronger. After several generations of management, he gradually became stronger and steadily surpassed Tiandu Kingdom and Biluo Kingdom. The world finally won a thousand years of peace. Peace must ultimately rely on strength to speak for itself.
Fayuan is a lonely man, what can he do to establish a country? Just relying on martial arts in the realm of heaven and man is obviously not enough. Besides, he obviously yearns for a leisurely pastoral life. He likes to accompany Ruolan and watch his children enjoy themselves.
As if he could see what Fa Yuan was thinking, he said in his heart: "Master said that if Master Fa Yuan does not put forward any conditions, Master is willing to exchange the secret of the "divine realm" for the jade pendant."
Fa Yuan smiled and said: "The secret of the divine realm is such a big statement. Since he knows it, why has he stayed in the heaven and human realm for more than fifty years?"
"The Divine Realm is just a legend, just people's speculation. When have you ever seen or heard of a Divine Realm master appearing in this world?"
Xinru nodded sincerely and said: "We have never seen or heard of it. That's because they have no need to let us know. Because even if we know about the divine realm, there is no way to achieve it."
"In this world, there are no resources and conditions to reach the divine realm. But the divine realm definitely exists, so there are legends related to the divine realm."
"They? Who are they? God-level masters?" Fayuan asked.
Xinru nodded, recalled carefully for a while, and said helplessly: "Master only told me so much. If you still want to know the details, you can go ten miles outside the east city and meet the master at Yihong Pavilion tomorrow morning."
After Xinru said goodbye, Fayuan took out the jade pendant and observed it carefully. He thought: "Since it is a token, it should leave words or something special."
But this piece of purple jade obviously has no words. The jade surface is as smooth as a mirror, which is the result of being held in someone's hand for a long time. Except for the bright red in the middle, could this invisible red be a token?
After a night of practice, before dawn, Fayuan left the temple and rushed to the east of the city. Since he wanted to see Zhengde, safety came first and there was nothing wrong with being cautious. It would be good to go to Yihong Pavilion in advance in case anything changes.
Ways to cope.
Yihong Pavilion is built against the mountain. As the name suggests, rainbows often appear here. With his martial arts skills, when he arrived at Yihong Pavilion, the sun had just emerged from the top of the mountain. The rays of rays were endless, and everything was covered with a layer of golden color.
Not only can you watch the rainbow here, but you can also watch the sunrise.
