Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 473 Baoguang Temple

As for their chances of advancement, after asking Chi Kong, if the ghosts here are not a hindrance, it won't be too late to release them then...

Chen Mu's idea moved, and without wasting any more time, he flew towards the extremely conspicuous Yinshan Mountain.

Half a day later, at the foot of Yinshan Mountain.

As the escaping light approached, it was noticed by Chikong who had just returned.

He took a look and was immediately delighted. He became more energetic and came out to greet her with a big laugh.

"Fellow Daoist Lingyuan, it's only been over ten days since we last met, and yet you're already thinking about me so much that you've come all the way here to catch up with me? Please come in quickly!"

Chen Mu smiled, bowed, and followed him into the cave.

"Fellow Daoist Chikong, you're joking. I'm visiting you this time to ask for something important..."

The two of them were not close friends, so he just said it directly. Beating around the bush would only annoy people.

"Hahaha... so refreshing!" As expected, Chi Kong, who was born in the demon clan, liked this kind of directness the most. After leading Chen Mu to sit down, he waved his hand and took out a pot of spirit wine, laughing out loud.

"I don't like trouble, so my cave is simple and my hospitality is not good enough. I hope fellow Daoist Lingyuan will not blame me."

After saying that, he picked up the wine jug and poured Chen Mu some wine, shouting "clink glasses".

The guest follows the host's wishes, so Chen Mu didn't hold back. After drinking it all in one gulp, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Good wine!"

It has a mellow taste, a long aftertaste, and a hint of fruity aroma. One can tell at a glance that it is brewed from spiritual fruits, and its grade is no lower than grade three.

"With this wine in my mouth, how can I say that I'm not entertaining you well?"

When Chi Kong heard this, he was very happy. It was a pity that he was just a Jindan demon cultivator. He lost many good friends just because he joined Baoguang Temple.

So this kind of drinking and entertainment was the first time in his nearly sixty years!
"Fellow Daoist is truly my lifelong confidant. If you don't mind, I'm willing to become your brother. We will live and die together, and seek the great Dao together!"

Chi Kong was excited for a moment and spoke the words of sworn brotherhood again.

Chen Mu pursed his lips and smiled, but avoided talking about this matter. He just said: "It suddenly occurred to me that you are a disciple of Buddhism. Doesn't drinking this time count as breaking the precepts?"

Chi Kong immediately waved his hands. He was so happy that he didn't care about Chen Mu changing the subject. He said, "I have already entered Buddhism. Breaking some precepts is nothing. It's no big deal...

But speaking of which, what's bothering you, Fellow Daoist Lingyuan, that you're so anxious to catch up?"

Chen Mu's expression straightened. After pondering for a moment, he said, "To be honest, fellow Daoist, I came here for the "Heart Mantra of the Ancient Buddha of Burning Lamp..."

As soon as the words fell, Chi Kong's face suddenly darkened, and he said in a muffled voice: "Daoyou, do you know what you are talking about?"

The Heart Mantra of the Ancient Buddha Dipamkara is the inheritance of the true Buddha's Taoism. In the Northern Plains, it is the fundamental Taoism of the top sects such as Fushan and Changhe.

For an inheritance like this, not to mention his sect's disciples, even his own disciples have many restrictions, for fear of leaking the Taoism, so how could he easily grant it to others?

It is also said that the "Heart Mantra of the Ancient Buddha Dipamkara" in Chikong's hand has been banned by Master Shenxiu. Once it is leaked, it will be triggered, and it is possible that no body will be left.

Chen Mu had anticipated his reaction, so he didn't give up easily and said slowly, "Chen is rude, please don't blame me, Daoist Chikong.

The Heart Mantra of the Ancient Buddha Dipankara is related to my path. I do not ask fellow Taoists to teach me, but only to guide me so that I can pay homage to Master Shenxiu..."

"You want to see my master?" Chi Kong was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled. "What a coincidence! When I went down the mountain, my master asked me to make many good friends. Now I only have you, my Taoist friend. Even if you didn't mention it, I would have brought you to meet my master."

"Oh?" Chen Mu raised one eyebrow slightly, and was quietly determined in his heart. If so, he would have more confidence in what he wanted on this trip.

"My mentor always stays at the mountain gate and is not here. Our Baoguang Temple is located in a mysterious place. If you don't have the guidance of my disciples, I am afraid you will never find it in your lifetime."

Baoguang Temple was created by Master Shenxiu with his great magical powers. It floats around in the Wilderness of Ten Thousand Souls. No one except the disciples of Baoguang Temple who hold the Buddha's seal can enter.

Chi Kong took out a Buddhist seal from his sleeve, snapped his fingers, and flew towards Chen Mu, saying, "Fellow Daoist Lingyuan, please refine this first."

Chen Mu raised his hand to take it, held it in his palm, and without hesitation, immediately injected a stream of magic power into it.

In a moment, a magic formula appeared on it. When he took a closer look, he realized that this magic formula was the key to deduce the location of Baoguang Temple.

"My Baoguang Temple is in a difficult situation, isolated from the hundreds of temples in the Western Desert. That's why we are so secretive to avoid others coveting the temple's inheritance."

Seeing that he was confused, Chi Kong kindly explained the reason to him.

Chen Mu nodded slightly and chuckled, "Fellow Daoist, since you gave me this technique, aren't you afraid that I might leak it out?"

Upon hearing this, Chi Kong laughed heartily and said, "If Daoist Fellow Lingyuan were really that kind of person, I, Old Pig, would not have given you this method...

Besides, my Baoguang Temple doesn't want to cause trouble, not because we are weak. If someone really comes to break the rules, not to mention Master, even I, Old Pig, will not let them get away easily!"

Chen Mu nodded. Although Chi Kong spoke in a very arrogant tone, nothing is certain in this world. Baoguang Temple is indeed better than most of the hundreds of temples in the Western Desert.

Take the Nascent Soul cultivators for example. Among the hundreds of temples in the Western Desert, only one-tenth has Nascent Soul cultivators in charge, and the rest are all Golden Core Buddhist sects whose ancestors were wealthy.

Baoguang Temple failed to enter the orthodox Buddhist sect. Its strength was not the reason, but there was another hidden reason...

What's more, the dispute over the origin of Buddha is approaching, and no one knows what changes will happen in the Western Desert after this. Baoguang Temple may be able to take advantage of the situation and rise up among the orthodox temples.

Chi Kong stopped laughing and looked at Chen Mu again, asking, "Old Pig, let me ask you one more question. After meeting your master, what are you going to offer to get your master to teach you the Dharma?"

Chen Mu pondered for a moment, then smiled slightly and said, "I will do my best and try my best..."

Chi Kong tutted his words and said, "If that's the case, then let's get up... Master is kind and amiable, but he believes that there must be gains after losses. I'm afraid that your pursuit of the Dharma this time will require a lot of effort..."

After saying this, he put aside his thoughts, made a hand gesture and stood up. He carefully deduced according to the Buddhist seal method, and after finding the location of Baoguang Temple, he and Chen Mu jumped up together and disappeared in an instant, without a trace.

Above the sky, Chen Mu maintained his escape light and pondered secretly. It seemed that Chi Kong's last words had other implications, but it was useless to think about it now. Once he arrived at Baoguang Temple, the answer would naturally become clear.

Thinking of this, he regained his concentration and used all his strength to drive the escape light...

The two pushed their escape technique to its limit, and within three days, they saw an inconspicuous shrub growing on the black sand.

According to Foyin's guidance, this is the gate of Baoguang Temple. However, at a glance, there is nothing else except the bushes, so we know that there must be restrictions covering the surroundings.

While checking, Chikong had already descended his light and came to an empty space nearby. He took out the Buddha seal and threw it, sprinkling Buddha light onto the bushes, making a rustling sound.

As soon as the voice fell, a white light rose into the sky, and a tall, thin monk flew out from the bushes and shouted loudly, "Which fellow monk is returning to the mountain?"

　Having said that, tomorrow is the annual college entrance examination day. I hope that my fellow Taoists who are taking the exam can write with inspiration and get their names on the list of successful candidates!
