The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2399 Fellow Daoist, You and Buddha Have a Fate

Why did they single me out when there were so many people in the camp?

This was Lin Chen's biggest question.

The monk Ku Rong smiled, his eyes filled with a clear understanding of everything: "You were in a dream when you closed your eyes and didn't wake up. Your whole body was radiant with energy. You are practicing the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Technique, a unique skill of Dragon Mountain, and you have already mastered it, haven't you?"

Lin Chen was startled; this monk was too terrifying.

How could someone tell at a glance that they had succeeded in their cultivation?
This matter is probably unknown even to many members of the Longshan Sect.

Lin Chen tried his best to calm his shock and smiled, "Master is indeed insightful. I am indeed practicing the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Technique, but I haven't mastered it. I can only say that I have a slight understanding of it and am still comprehending it. I have some feelings about it, but unfortunately I had to interrupt my practice..."

This alliance of the three religions can be considered as an alliance, but in reality, the three religions have always been competitors. With no one in the Longshan Sect knowing that he has mastered the Longshan Yunmeng Technique, will this monk take any action against him now that he knows about his cultivation?
After all, if he successfully cultivates the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Technique, he will definitely become an important figure in the Dragon Mountain Sect, which is also a major opponent of Buddhism.

Isn't it perfectly normal to nip your opponent in the bud?

Looking into Lin Chen's eyes, Monk Kurong smiled slightly: "When I was controlled by my inner demons, I was attracted by the aura of your cultivation of the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Technique. Fortunately, otherwise, I would probably have caused endless bloodshed. Fellow Daoist Lin, you have done me a great favor."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "It's the best thing that everyone is alright."

The monk Kurong sighed, “Although you are not a Buddhist, you know such profound Buddhist principles, which means you have a connection with Buddhism. It’s a pity that you have already joined the Longshan Sect and practiced its unique martial arts. Otherwise, I could have converted you to Buddhism.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen secretly rejoiced, thinking how fortunate he was to have joined the Dragon Mountain Sect; otherwise, wouldn't he have been captured and forced to become a monk?
"Thank you for your appreciation, senior. However, I am a gluttonous and lustful person with several wives. If I were to enter Buddhism, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to find peace of mind."

After thinking for a moment, Monk Kurong took out a token and handed it to Lin Chen: "Because of you, fellow Daoist, I have successfully gotten rid of my inner demons and have not gone on a killing spree, causing much bloodshed. I owe you a great favor. Take this token. If you encounter danger, inject your spiritual power into it, and I will appear to help you resolve the danger."

Lin Chen was overjoyed and took the token: "Is it the real body or a projection?"

"The true form."

The monk Kurong smiled and said, "You are Fuyunzi's disciple, so ordinary dangers are naturally no problem for you. If you encounter difficulties or dangers that even Fuyunzi cannot solve, then use this token."

"This token can only be used once, fellow Daoist, please use it with caution."

Lin Chen was secretly shocked. This monk Ku Rong was really powerful. Judging from his tone, no matter how far away the distance was, he could cross space in his true form to come. This was much more powerful than the three powerful figures from the three sects who gave him the token first.

The reason why Liu Yun, Chen Guang, Xuan Neng, and others were able to appear in their physical forms when they encountered the Ghost True Man was because they had already arrived in the North Sea, not far from Moon God Island. If they were still in Donghuang, which was too far away, they could at most only send down projections of their true forms. This monk Kurong is said to be a special being with the divine powers of a saint. With him as a protective talisman, he basically had an extra life.

No matter what kind of enemy they encounter, as long as Monk Kurong arrives, even if he can't kill the enemy, he can at least rescue them safely.

Lin Chen was overjoyed. Although he had been scared half to death by the monk Kurong who was possessed by his inner demons, he had gained a great favor from him, which was equivalent to having an extra life. He had made a huge profit.

Find wealth in danger!
However, Lin Chen still hoped that similar incidents would not happen again; just thinking about it made him feel a little scared.

Even if it had been just a little off, if the Buddhist verse I recited hadn't just touched his soul, I probably would have been dead.

The airship sped along, and Moon Goddess Island soon reappeared before them.

Soon, Lin Chen reappeared at the Three Religions camp. Their arrival caused a commotion, and soon everyone from the Three Religions appeared in the open space.

Liu Yun's face was still pale, but her eyes lit up with surprise: "Lin Chen?"

Lin Chen leaped off the flying boat and asked with concern, "Uncle-Master, are you alright?"

Liu Yun shook his head, looking warily at Monk Kurong: "I'm fine, what happened?"

Before Lin Chen could answer, the monk Kurong clasped his hands together and bowed to Liuyun: "Fellow Daoist Liuyun, I was controlled by my inner demons before and injured you. I am very sorry. I have a pill here to express my apology..."

With a flick of his hand, the monk Kurong sent a red pill flying towards Liuyun.

Many people present glanced at the red pill and unconsciously gasped.

"The Spirit Buddha Pill!"

Liu Yun's expression softened slightly as he caught the pill and asked in a deep voice, "Master, are you... alright now?"

The monk Ku Rong replied, "With the help of my young friend Lin Chen, I successfully suppressed my inner demons and have now returned to normal..."
