Gao Wu: My martial arts training relies solely on hard work

[You have refined the Dao fruit left by the Taoist seniors when they emerged, gained the cultivation experience of the Taoist seniors, and your realm has improved. 】

[You have absorbed the pure power of the soul contained in the Dao Fruit fragments, and your soul cultivation has improved. 】

The mountain behind Tianzhu Peak.

Zhao Xuan's heart was raised to the sky, and there was a Dao Fruit floating in front of him, wrapped in black and white airflow.

Under the erosion of the black and white airflow, the Tao Fruit emitted crystal light, like stars, melting into the body bit by bit.

Every time you integrate a little bit, the soul will grow stronger and gradually rise.

After a long time, a passage from the Taoist canon appeared in Zhao Xuan's mind: "The essence of the three caves is the same Tao Qi. The Tao Qi is unique and its application is divided into three. They are all used to induce the secular to cultivate immortality and to realize the Tao from the mortal world..."

The Yuan Shen, who was more than two feet high, gradually split into two, and became two Yuan Shen, who were more than two feet high.

One remained in Zhao Xuan's body, and the other walked towards a pile of Five Elements treasures that had been prepared in advance. When he sat there, the majestic power of the soul emerged.

Various five-element attribute treasures, under the smelting of the power of the soul, melt like ice and snow, turning into colorful streams of light that adhere to the soul.

Soon, the second incarnation came to the world again and bowed to the original body: "I have seen this deity."

Zhao Xuan returned the greeting: "Thank you for your hard work, fellow Taoist, and continue to stay in charge of the Southern Jin Dynasty."

The second incarnation nodded: "Please obey the laws of the original body."

Then it turned into a stream of light and disappeared in the mountain behind Tianzhu Peak.

After making up for the lost second incarnation, Zhao Xuan continued to absorb Dao Fruit and increase his cultivation.

A month passed by in a flash,

Before Xuanzang came to the door, Dao Sansheng came over first.

He was quite excited and said: "Fellow Taoist, I have a perfect strategy to destroy Buddhism."

Zhao Xuan's reaction was very dull: "The temple owner might as well come and listen."

A gleam of light flashed in Dao Sansheng's eyes: "The poor Dao found out that after Kong Lai's death, the Buddhist sect was without a leader. Xuanzang was supposed to succeed as the chief abbot, but because of the intervention of the immortal world, he could not succeed."

"Now that the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple is falling into division, Xuanzang is isolated and helpless. He is in urgent need of treatment and seeks medical treatment. He actually wants to use the power of the Taoist sect to help him clear the obstacles and ascend to the position of chief abbot."

"You and I can use our tactics to cut off the vitality of Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple under the guise of helping him, and let it weaken step by step and lead to destruction."

A month ago, when Xuanzang came to him and asked what conditions he would need to persuade Zhao Xuan to take action, he became more thoughtful.

While telling the truth, he sent someone to secretly find out what happened to Xuanzang.

When he learned about the civil strife in Wanfo Temple, he immediately guessed that Xuanzang was looking for Zhao Xuan to quell the chaos, and then formulated a plan to use it to his advantage.

Zhao Xuan said noncommittally: "What the temple master said is wrong. Wouldn't a divided Buddhist sect be more in line with the interests of the Taoist sect?"

"If he helps Xuanzang clear the obstacles, he will twist Buddhism into a rope. Even if it is weak for a period of time, it will surely prosper again."

"Unless the Buddhist sect can be completely destroyed, the Buddhist sect in the immortal world may not be able to do anything."

The appearance of the ancestor of Taiyi Sect gave him a new understanding of the situation in the human world.

The great powers in the immortal world are like chess players, and all the living beings in the human world are like chess pieces.

Some chess pieces are fighting on the chessboard, such as Dao Sansheng, Xuanzang and others.

Some chess pieces are not on the chessboard yet.

For chess players, even if all the chess pieces on the chess board are eaten, it will not hurt their muscles and bones.

They can pick new pieces at any time, place them on the board, and continue fighting.

As long as the chess player does not die, the game will continue to be played until the chess piece jumps out of the chess board and becomes a new chess player.

The so-called annihilation is just a joke.

If a sect is killed today and no one is left alive, tomorrow there will be powerful people from the immortal world behind it who will cause trouble and then recruit a group of new disciples to revive the sect.

Therefore, helping Xuanzang clear obstacles seems to be weakening the strength of Buddhism, but upon closer inspection, it is actually helping Buddhism.

On the contrary, letting it continue to be chaotic will truly weaken the strength of Buddhism. A strange look flashed in Dao Sansheng's eyes: "Cultivating disciples is not as easy as Taoist friends think. If all the outstanding young disciples of Wanfo Temple die, we will not be able to recover until you and I ascend."

He seemed to realize that he could not convince Zhao Xuan in this way, so he thought for a while and said: "Buddhism has many good things that can increase your cultivation. The loot captured from this time of destroying Buddha will belong to fellow Taoists."

Zhao Xuan just shook his head lightly: "The master's cultivation has reached the peak of Yin Shen Realm. He cooperates with Xuanzang Buddha internally and externally, and he can also wipe out the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple. Why do I need to take action?"

Although he didn't know why Dao Sansheng kept encouraging him to attack Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, he wanted to practice with peace of mind and had no intention of taking action.

Dao Sansheng was stunned when he heard the words, and said with a wry smile: "My fellow Taoists don't know that the powerful people in the immortal world can cross the boundary and take action. Although they are restricted by the human world, their realm will not exceed the upper limit, but they have great magical powers, and the strength they display is often far superior to that of the human world. at the upper limit.”

"Unparalleled talents like fellow Taoist who are far beyond the realm can't resist. A mediocre guy like Pindao can barely protect himself, but he doesn't have the strength to kill the opponent."

I heard that a group of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Buddhism are involved this time. With his strength, rashly interfering will only lead to disaster.

Dao Sansheng gritted his teeth and said: "If fellow Taoist is willing to take action, in addition to the spoils of war, Pindao will also offer a sum of elixir, how about it?"

Such an attitude had to make Zhao Xuan suspicious.

He wondered: "I have clearly explained the pros and cons of it, why is the temple master so persistent?"

Dao Sansheng hesitated for a moment and sighed: "If I can destroy Buddhism and the Tianshen Sect once, my master will agree to accept Pindao as a formal disciple."

"If you become a formal disciple, it means that the poor Taoist has truly entered the gate of the Taoist sect. Not to mention ascending to immortality in the future, he can protect the Taoist sect. Even if he dies and is reincarnated, his master or senior brother will come to guide him until he becomes an immortal."

"This identity is too important for Pindao. I ask fellow Taoists to help me. If you have any conditions, please feel free to ask for them."

Seeing that Zhao Xuan was so persistent, he thought about it and planned to reveal some reasons that would let Zhao Xuan know.

As for those things that Zhao Xuan shouldn't know, he planned to hide them.

Zhao Xuan thought for a moment.

"Let me think about it and I'll give you a reply within ten days."

When Dao Sansheng saw Zhao Xuan relenting, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "This matter is not urgent. I will come back to see my fellow Taoist in ten days."

Zhao Xuan said "hmm" and asked casually: "Master, does the temple know what rare treasures there are in Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, which are beneficial to your and my practice?"

Dao Sansheng just thought that Zhao Xuan was thinking about what benefits he could get, and said with a smile: "I heard that there is a merit pool in Daleiyin Temple. There is a merit golden lotus growing in the pool, which can heal wounds, nourish the soul, and prevent all evil. invasion and many other benefits.”

"Even an immortal can use it. If everything goes well this time, I will definitely find a way to get it for my fellow Taoist."

"In addition, there is a treasure bell, which is said to be made from fragments of ancient artifacts. It can not only protect the body and hurt the enemy, but also be used to understand the ancient avenue..."

There is a saying that goes well.

The people who know you best are often your enemies.

Many treasures from the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple were mentioned by Dao Sansheng as if they were treasures from every family.

Zhao Xuan wrote them down one by one.

After finishing speaking, Dao Sansheng secretly looked at Zhao Xuan's face and saw that he seemed to be moving, so he thought that it would probably happen.

So he didn't bother, said goodbye to Zhao Xuan and left.

Not long after Dao Sansheng left, Xuanzang came over secretly.

He clasped his hands together: "Amitabha, what do you think of the donor?"

Zhao Xuan said calmly: "I can take action, but I want your temple's meritorious golden lotus, Tianyin Bell, and ancient Bodhi tree..."

He reported a series of reports, all of which were what Dao Sansheng had just told him.

Xuanzang was stunned when he heard this.

Zhao Xuan's request almost emptied the wealth of Wanfo Temple.

He couldn't help but ask: "How did the donor know that this temple has these treasures?"
