I am devoted to the Tao

Chapter 13 Abbot, are you really not a cultivator of the devilish sect?
As he entered the Bodhi Hall, a giant Buddha shining with golden light came into Jiangchuan's sight.

The giant Buddha wears a five-Buddha crown, has a peaceful expression, holds a jade ruyi in his hand, and sits cross-legged on a green lotus throne.

Although it is just a sculpture, it gives people a sense of sacredness and solemnity, as if a real Bodhisattva has descended here, making people want to worship it.

"If even a statue inspires awe, what kind of realm must the Buddha Bodhi, who founded the Bodhi Temple, be in?"

As Jiang Chuan's thoughts turned, he looked at the old monk wearing a nine-treasure robe who was sitting cross-legged in front of the statue of Bodhi Buddha.

The old monk's hair and beard were all white, and his face was old and wrinkled, like the bark of an old tree.

Anyone who sees the old monk for the first time will feel his kindness and serenity, and know that he is a great monk with great virtue.

In front of the old monk, in addition to Elder Jingyun, there was also a gray-robed monk with a burly build and holding a Zen stick.

The gray-robed monk said to the old monk with a troubled look on his face, "Abbot, is it really okay for us to reply to the Maha Hall like this?"

"What's wrong with that? Just tell Maha Palace that the Jiuyuan Dynasty and our Buddhist sect have taken a fancy to us. If they won't let us out, then we will beat them until they come out!" Abbot Kongming spoke with great arrogance.

Jiangchuan: "."

No, does this sound like something a monk would say?
Abbot, are you sure you are a Buddhist and not a cultivator of the devil's way?
The gray-robed monk looked embarrassed: "Abbot, I think we should have a good discussion with Maha Hall."

"No need. If we discuss it properly, those bastards in the Maha Palace might think that I have cultivated myself for many years and am easy to bully."

There was an unconcealable eagerness and excitement in Abbot Kongming's voice.

Jiang Chuan secretly complained: "Bodhi Temple is easy to bully? I feel that you clearly want to bully Maha Temple. However, in the simulation, Maha Temple actually blocked the combined forces of the three sects of Buddhism and Taoism. It is indeed a bit abnormal."

The seven sects, six demons, three palaces and nine clans are called together. There may be differences in strength between them, but it will definitely not be very big.

The fact that the immortal path can dominate the Qingyuan Realm has a lot to do with the fact that the demonic and heterodox paths are not a monolithic entity.

It seems very unreasonable that Mahadian could fight against three people alone and still hold his own before the end of Jiangchuan's simulation.

The gray-robed monk seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted by Abbot Kongming.

"Just do as I say."

"Yes."

The gray-robed monk sighed softly and turned away.

"Amitabha!"

Noticing that Abbot Kongming was looking at him, Jiangchuan clasped his hands together and chanted the Buddha's name.

"Jingyang, greetings to Abbot Kongming."

Kongming withdrew his gaze and spoke again.

"Jingyang, I heard about your situation from Jingyun. Since you are a disciple of my Bodhi Temple in this life, I will naturally help you retrieve the inheritance and treasures of your previous life. Go back and pack up, we will leave tomorrow."

"Yes."

Jiang Chuan then took his leave.

After Jiang Chuan left, Elder Jingyun looked puzzled.

"Abbot, didn't you have something to ask Jing Yang? Why didn't you ask?"

"According to the records within the Central Temple, the life and death of Master Longbian remains a mystery. I suspect Jing Yang is not his reincarnation."

Abbot Kong Ming paused and continued, "But when Jing Yang came in, I saw that the technique he was practicing wasn't from our Bodhi Temple, but it was magnificent and vast. Compared to our Bodhi Temple's supreme scripture, the 'Future Constellation Sutra', it was at most a notch weaker."

"What?! It's only slightly weaker than the Future Stars Sutra!"

Elder Jingyun was shocked and exclaimed, "Doesn't this mean that the technique Jingyang is practicing is comparable to the core inheritance of Mingwang Palace and Shuiyue Temple?!"

The core inheritance of the major forces in the Qingyuan Realm, the most advanced scriptures and magical powers, if placed in the Qingyuan Realm, would be enough to make the earth mourn and countless cultivators fight for it.

Such a scripture, even within the major forces, there are very few who can practice it. Elder Jingyun never expected that Jiangchuan actually possessed it.

"When the core disciples of each major faction are taught the highest-level scriptures, they will set up restrictions to prevent the scriptures from being leaked. Upon death and reincarnation, the restrictions will be activated, wiping away the soul's memory of the scriptures and their magical powers."

Abbot Kong Ming explained, "Originally, I was skeptical about whether Jing Yang was the reincarnation of Master Long Bian. However, after seeing his extraordinary heritage, I became 70% to 80% certain that he was the reincarnation of Master Long Bian. So, I didn't ask."

[The next morning, you will follow Abbot Kongming, Elder Jingyun, and nine other elders to Chisha Island.]

[Arriving in front of the Life and Death Cave, Abbot Kongming was about to attack when the Life and Death Cave suddenly exploded.]

[Caught off guard, Abbot Kongming was unable to save you in time, and you were swallowed by the aftermath, leaving no intact body.]

【This love simulation failed.】

"Why the hell did it explode?!"

Jiang Chuan recalled the scene of the cave exploding, his face full of confusion and puzzlement.

In the previous ten simulations, the cave explosions were caused by elders such as Jingyun bombarding it for half a day.

This time, before Abbot Kongming could take action, the cave exploded.

"Could it be that the formation left by Master Long Bian also has a realm detection function? Let's try a simulation next time."

[Under your advice, Abbot Kongming disguised himself as a cultivator of the Sixth Realm.]

This time, the Life and Death Cave Mansion didn't explode directly. Abbot Kongming took action directly, and the starlight in the sky transformed into a giant hand, slapping it towards the Life and Death Cave Mansion.

[The next moment, the Life and Death Cave exploded, and you were swallowed by the aftermath, leaving no intact body.]

【This love simulation failed.】

[At your instruction, Abbot Kongming brought with him a top-grade Taoist artifact, the Dingxu Pearl, and came to the Shengmie Cave.]

[The Dingxu Pearl can freeze the void. The abbots and elders of Bodhi Temple have used it to kill many powerful people in the eighth and even ninth realms.]

[You thought this time was finally foolproof, but then a colorless ripple flashed by, and the Dingxu Pearl was immediately rendered ineffective, and the Shengmie Cave immediately exploded.]

[You were swallowed by the aftermath of the explosion, and your body was torn to pieces.]

【This love simulation failed.】

“It exploded again!”

Jiang Chuan, looking unhappy, kicked a fist-sized stone away.

"Master Long Bian! You're such a stingy person!"

"The inherited treasure cannot be brought with you when you are born, nor can it be taken away when you die. What's wrong with leaving it to future generations of cultivators?"

"You'd rather blow it up than leave it to future generations of monks."

"I wish you could be reborn as the daughter of your Taoist partner's reincarnation! Daddy is even less moral than Jiang Daode! Grandpa was your enemy in your previous life!"

After venting, Jiang Chuan's anger dissipated a lot.

"If we can't open this broken cave, then we won't fight anymore."

Abbot Kongming couldn't open the cave, so Jiangchuan decided not to continue fighting with Shengmie Cave and took out the golden knife given to him by Jinfeng.

"The most urgent thing is to pass the assessment of the Martial Monk Academy. I am already at the fourth level of the second realm. After swallowing the golden sword given to me by Senior Jinfeng, my strength can be further improved."

A black rainbow light flew out from between Jiang Chuan's five fingers, covering the golden knife in his hand.

The "Dark Space Devouring Universe Sutra" can evolve the dark universe and devour all visible and invisible things.

Gold essence, a spiritual material for refining weapons, can also be swallowed by Jiang Chuan and turned into his magic power.
