Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 485 The Buddha's Voice Appears
The sky was clear and cloudless. Above an altar, Buddha's light shone brightly and figures gathered around, as if they were engaged in a fierce battle.

Huiyang fled everywhere on a beam of light, but was cornered and embarrassed by a shirtless monk from the Demon Subduing Temple.

Seeing that he couldn't dodge it no matter what, he could only admit defeat and said, "Fellow Daoist Luo Zhi, I admit defeat, I admit defeat..."

Upon hearing this, the monk from the Demon Subduing Temple laughed heartily, slowed down his posture, bowed, and said, "Thank you, Daoist Fellow Huiyang. Your Great Leiyin Temple is strong in the True Buddha's teachings, while the Dharma Protector Vajra's teachings are slightly different. I was able to defeat you because I took advantage of this advantage."

Huiyang's face looked grim, but after hearing these words, his depressed mood improved a lot.

"Fellow Daoist Luo Zhi, you are too polite. Fu Mo Zhen Guan is full of talented people. After seeing it today, I can see that it is indeed well-deserved."

The two of them praised each other and were in great joy. At this time, the people standing by and watching came over. Someone close to them patted Huiyang on the shoulder and comforted him with a smile.

"It's not that Junior Brother Huiyang is bad, but Fellow Daoist Luo Zhi is too outstanding... From what I've seen, Fellow Daoist Luo Zhi has already practiced the 'Demon Subduing Mysterious Art' to the eighth level, which is equivalent to the late Jindan stage. His cultivation is far superior to you and me!"

Huiyang curled his lips secretly, but on the surface he cupped his hands and sighed, "Fellow Daoist Luo Zhi is very wise. I am not as good as him."

"No, no..." Luo Zhi smiled complacently. He felt a little flattered by the two of them praising him like that.

He looked to the side and saw a nun in a white robe standing there. She had a serene temperament, like a pure white lotus.

"Fellow Daoist Xinyi, you are a disciple of Zizai Temple. Please comment on this. Are there any flaws in my Demon-Subduing Golden Body? Can it compare to the methods of the Heavenly Dragons and Eight Immortals of the Tianlong Temple?"

This woman's Buddhist name is Xinyi. She is the most outstanding among the second generation of disciples in Zizai Temple. Her cultivation level has reached the realm of Golden Elixir Perfection, which is higher than that of several people present.

She smiled calmly and said softly, "Fellow Daoist Luo Zhi, you've asked the wrong person. I'm a poor nun with limited knowledge and can't see any omissions. As for the Eight Heavenly Dragons' method, I don't know anything about it and can't tell..."

Luo Zhi's expression froze when he heard this, and he felt a little uncomfortable, thinking that Xinyi was not giving him face.

Xinyi seemed unaware and continued, "It's Chikong, a disciple of Baoguang Temple. I heard that his demonic body, refined with the Vajra method, has miraculous effects. It should be no less effective than Daoist Fellow Luo Zhi's 'Demon Subduing Golden Body'."

Luo Zhi initially didn't take it seriously, but after hearing the name of Baoguang Temple, his expression suddenly became serious.

At this time, they also learned about the coming of the Taoist tradition from their uncles and uncles, so they were particularly sensitive to Baoguang Temple.

"As far as I know, Master Shenxiu is a rare genius. I wonder how much of his legacy his disciples can inherit..."

"Hmph, they are just some demon cultivators who have learned half a volume of Buddhist teachings. How can they compare with us?" Huiyang thought of Chikong who had gone wild in the Great Leiyin Temple not long ago, and immediately snorted coldly.

Hearing this, Xinyi chuckled and said, "I've heard about what happened before, but how did Fellow Daoist Huiyang lose to a cultivator from Beiyuan?"

"Oh?" Luo Zhi raised a single eyebrow, surprised, "Brother Beiyuan? When did this happen?"

He was still in seclusion at that time, so it is unknown.

Huiyang's expression gradually darkened as he sneered, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Daoist Xinyi. Last time, I was too careless and lost. He won't be so lucky next time."

Xinyi nodded with a smile, looking as if it had nothing to do with her.

Little did he know that this appearance would only make others irritated. Huiyang suppressed his anger and said, "Fellow Daoist, please don't disbelieve me. That Beiyuan monk is now in Baoguang Temple. We will meet one day. When that time comes, I will prove it to you!"

"What a spirit!"

Luo Zhi shouted loudly and said with a meaningful smile: "I have also fought with the cultivators of the Beiyuan Sect, and they all did not live up to their reputation. If Fellow Daoist Huiyang is still defeated next time, I will vent my anger for you!" "Hmph, when did I need you..." Before Huiyang finished speaking, everyone was stunned. They noticed some changes and looked towards the depths of Lingshan.

"The abbot has already calculated the time when the Taoist orthodoxy will appear in the world, and he has asked us to meet him immediately and head to the Wasteland of Ten Thousand Souls together!"

After hearing this, Luo Zhi and the others' eyes were filled with excitement. They had caught up with the True Buddha inheritance that only appears once in a thousand years. Not to mention who would get it in the end, just being able to participate in it was already a great fortune!
……

The sun rose and the moon set, and seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

Suddenly, a murmuring sound was heard from the boundless wasteland, as if thousands of monks had gathered together and silently chanted Buddhist scriptures.

The sound was small at first, but in a moment it became like a sudden roar of thunder, resounding loudly.

Chen Mu suddenly opened his eyes, listened attentively for a while, and then quickly made hand gestures to call back the ghosts of Yaksha and others.

During these seven days, he consolidated his cultivation while keeping an eye on the ghosts of Yaksha and others. He was afraid that the True Buddha would appear in the world and cause some inexplicable changes, so he took the ghosts away without thinking...

"Fortunately, we reacted quickly."

He shook his head and smiled, looking at the ghosts such as Yaksha in the soul flag.

Although he had made considerable progress after three months of devouring, he was still some distance away from reaching the third stage. He was overthinking it...

The third level is equivalent to the golden elixir, how can it be so easy to break through?

"I can only look for another opportunity later..."

He put away his soul flag and then flew up into the sky. After soaring into the sky, he looked around and saw that there were thousands of rays of light rising from Baoguang Temple. Half of them were monks and half were demon cultivators, and most of them were cultivators at the foundation-building stage.

Thousands of escaping lights converged together, and as the restrictions were lifted, they appeared one after another above the Wasteland of Ten Thousand Souls.

The Buddhist chanting became more and more ethereal and erratic. When the monks were at a loss as to where to go, a roar was heard from the horizon, and a golden-haired lion beast flew over, transforming into a human form and leading the way.

The lion beast was exactly the demon pet of Master Shenxiu. Chen Mu saw that it must have received the order from Master Shenxiu to guide everyone, so he did not hesitate and mixed in with the thousands of escaping lights and followed closely behind.

This time he was going to occupy the Heavenly King Hall for Master Shenxiu. Even if he was hiding in the crowd now, he was destined to stand out in front of everyone later. What he did at this time was actually just his subconscious and cautious choice.

The escaping light continued to move forward. Chen Mu looked around and saw that at the front of the team was a tall, gray-robed monk with an ordinary appearance.

Beside him were Fairy Yinghua, Chi Kong and more than ten other Jindan cultivators. Further behind him were a group of third-generation disciples.

Chen Mu pondered in his heart, and said, "I think the leader must be a fool. To be entrusted with such an important task by Master Shenxiu, his methods should not be as ordinary as his appearance..."

He knew in his heart that Master Shenxiu would probably have some reservations about him, saying that he needed to occupy all the Heavenly King Halls. However, the Great Leiyin Temple and other Buddhist sects were not to be trifled with easily. How could they watch Baoguang Temple occupy all the Heavenly King Halls?

According to his guess, the conditions for Master Shenxiu to obtain the true Buddha orthodoxy were at most two Heavenly King Halls...

Of course, all of this is just his speculation and will not affect his decision.

Since he had already agreed to this, he would do his best to occupy a Heavenly King Palace for him. As for other issues, they were not his concern...
