She was already stretching her muscles and warming up, just waiting for this battle. She said with full energy, "The Jintai Temple's lair has been destroyed. That evil creature won't really wait a month to come. Ten days or half a month at most. I hope he's not too far away!"
Yun Qingying was also making preparations for the battle, but she knew nothing about the Tianlong Monk, so she asked:
"Madam Bai, Auntie, what realm is this Tianlong Dharma Monk at? Did he even defeat you guys back then?"
This was not pleasant to hear. Aunt Green Snake quickly walked up to the fox-eared girl and emphasized seriously:
"What do you mean by defeated? We didn't even fight head-on back then. Sister just turned around and left! Otherwise, how could there be a piece of intact land in Diaolongkou?
The strength of the Tianlong monk seems to have grown considerably, and his aura far surpasses that of his youth. Considering the various Buddhist artifacts that bless him, he is not an easy foe to deal with. He will definitely not be as weak as the Jintai Temple, where he was slaughtered in an instant."
Bai Sujin had already let go of the past. She calmly recounted her feelings back then, saying:
"Back then, the biggest blow to me wasn't from the Heavenly Dragon Monk, but from the people of Diaolongkou. The friendship of several generations was soured by just a few words.
Disappointment far outweighs anger. Even if I had used force to respond to the smear campaign by the Tianlong Monk, it would not have been enough to appease my disappointment with the people here."
If you really look into it, Bai Sujin also remembered the friendship between the ancestors of the people at that time. Their ancestors have almost all died, so Bai Sujin's memory of those early people remains a relatively friendly impression, simple and kind. When they were struggling to make ends meet, they were willing to contribute their labor and money to build temples to express their gratitude for their help.
The latter group of people are equivalent to the descendants of old friends.
If she and Xiaoqing had counterattacked with all their strength at that time, the fate of Tianlong Monk would be unknown. He might have had magic weapons to protect himself, but the people here would definitely be affected and destroyed.
The disaster started from a gambler. Perhaps some people did not have hostility towards the sisters and should not be implicated, but Bai Sujin was not in the mood to sort them out one by one.
Out of consideration for the kindness of their grandparents, Bai Sujin chose to leave and sever ties, respecting the choice of the people here, but would never look back and forgive them.
The Fox Goddess suddenly said, "My little fox has made a new discovery~"
Everyone looked at "Yun Qingying" curiously, but Chu Wuji didn't understand what it meant.
He asked, "Hasn't everything been figured out? What new discoveries have you made? Could it be the treasure house of Jintai Temple or something like that?"
Aunt Green Snake suddenly lost interest. She had no interest in making money and continued to warm up her training in her mind, planning how to deal with the Tianlong Monk.
The Fox Goddess laughed at her impatience and explained, "It's the location of the Dragon Monk. He can cast spells from a distance, so he must have left a trace of his aura!"
Aunt Green Snake frowned and walked quickly to the bell. The magical little fox was squatting beside the bell and shaking its tail. It had found a tiny strand of silk thread, which was thinner than silk. Even if one stood in front of the thread, one could not sense its magical aura.
"This can be traced back to its origin. It is indeed an ancient fox spirit with amazing abilities..."
Bai Sujin was a little surprised. She asked, "Senior Tianhu, is the location of Tianlong Dharma Monk far away?"
The Sky Fox Lady observed the state of the silk thread and said with a playful smile:
"It's not far, it only takes half a day's flight. It should be within the Tiannu River basin. That bald monk is so arrogant, why doesn't he have any intention of returning? He's actually staying where he is, with only his voice and slogans shouting loudly~"
Chu Wuji made a prompt decision and said:
"He didn't come looking for us, so we went looking for him ourselves. He really gave him face. He wanted to seek revenge on us, but he left us alone for a month!"
Everyone agreed. The fairy lady summoned clouds and carried their companions on board. The magical little fox, holding a rattle, also jumped onto the clouds and acted as a guide.
Chasing the other end of the bell-ringing silk thread, he headed straight for the location of the Tianlong monk!
*
Right now,
Ning Xianzhi and Jiuwu Taoist were watching nearby. They hid in the clouds high above and did not reveal their presence.
Chu Wuzhi and his group flew past them from below, instantly disappearing into a distant distance and turning into a small dot on the horizon.
Ning Xianzhi looked at his friend helplessly and asked:
"Jiujiu, shouldn't you be drinking in the sect? Why are you here? Don't tell me you're attending a banquet here."
They did not come together, nor did they make any prior appointment.
After Ning Xianzhi arrived at Diaolongkou, she watched nearby for a while, and then the Jiuwu Taoist flew to her side with a wine gourd in his mouth.
Taoist Jiuwu drank the wine at the corner of his mouth and said:
"Not really, I just came here to watch the fun. But I heard from my drinking buddies that the Skywrath Dragon Palace is having a ancestral recognizing banquet recently. The aquatic creatures have never socialized with the creatures on land, otherwise I really want to taste the wine of the Aquatic Dragon Palace..."
Ning Xianzhi murmured, "Returning to one's roots? The Skywrath Dragon Palace?"
Chapter 236 Loach Transforms into Dragon Prince
Tiannu Dragon Palace, the dragon palace in the Tiannu River.
The Tianlong monk was among them. His consciousness was withdrawn from the bell, and he was filled with anger. He knelt on the ground in dejection and weakness, and slowly moved towards the direction of Jintai Temple, mourning for the master who had given him a new life, as well as his fellow disciples.
The surrounding water maids were surprised and terrified, not knowing what had happened. One of them left to report, while the rest stayed and tried to confirm his condition.
"Seventh Prince, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
The Tianlong monk who was being watched completely ignored the Dragon Palace maid. He was immersed in a huge sorrow in his heart. The tragic scene in the temple he had just seen while ringing the bell shocked his mind. He murmured in disbelief:
"Why is this happening? I've already relocated Master to the Tiannu River region, allowing him to establish a temple, practice Buddhism, and live a life of seclusion... Why was he only away for a few short months?"
At this time, a majestic dragon girl in a gorgeous blue skirt came flying on the waves. The ripples on the hem of her skirt flowed slowly, which was gorgeous and noble, and definitely not an ordinary thing.
After the Dragon Girl appeared, the maids of the Dragon Palace bowed in greeting, their plump breasts drooping at their collars. They greeted her respectfully in unison:
"Xuan Yin Xingjun!"
The dragon girl, who is of noble status and proud bearing, is the eldest daughter in the Dragon Palace. After the Wrathful Dragon King went into seclusion to cultivate, the eldest daughter became the head of the Dragon Palace, managing the Wrathful Dragon Palace in an orderly manner.
But in fact, there is no need to bother to deal with it. Are the dragon forces in the Tiannu River still worried about someone plotting rebellion?
Basically, all the tribes in the water naturally worship and submit to the dragon clan. Even those who try to walk on the dragon have to come to the Tiannu Dragon Palace in advance and find the Xuanyin Star Lord to show their goodwill and greetings if they don't want to cause trouble.
This is a naturally noble status, far more stable than that of human kings on land.
"Seventh brother, the maid said you were furious for no reason. What's the matter? Your grand ancestral celebration will be held in the next few days. Please don't make things complicated."
There was a kind of ethereal indifference in the Dragon Girl's tone, which made the Tianlong Monk even more angry, as if he was being watched from the sidelines and being evaluated by people who had nothing to do with him.
"The master who recited the Diamond Sutra and helped me escape from trouble died at the hands of evildoers. The Jintai Temple was massacred and the entire family was killed..." Monk Tianlong gritted his teeth and recounted the situation he had just seen.
This Tianlong Dharma Monk was the seventh prince of the Nujiang Dragon Clan two hundred years ago. He was of an extremely noble status, but he had a bad temper. He was arrogant to his subordinates and disrespectful to his superiors.
Before the Dragon King of Tiannu River went into seclusion, he cruelly beat him into a loach and threw him into a small river on the ground to be punished and reflect on his mistakes.
When he becomes enlightened in his humble form, he will naturally be able to transform back into a dragon.
This was by no means an easy task. After being beaten into a loach, he lost his memory of being a dragon and was in a stage where his intelligence was not yet developed.
If unfortunately it is caught and eaten by someone, its soul and spirit will re-enter the body of a new loach, which is equivalent to "reincarnation" and continue to be punished until it can become enlightened, remember its true self through practice, and change its ways.
He went through this process many times, which was equivalent to suffering countless reincarnations. Sometimes he was eaten by big fish, sometimes he was caught and put into the pot. Occasionally, when his spiritual wisdom was awakened and he gained some magic power, he could not help but go ashore and cause trouble, and was beaten and killed by immortal monks.
Fortunately, in his most recent "reincarnation", he was caught by a fisherman and sent to the market to be sold. Just as he was about to suffer again, a monk discovered the extraordinary nature of this loach and bought it.
As a result, the monks of Jintai would always carry loaches with them when they chanted sutras. When other monks were practicing, the monks of Jintai would also bring loaches with them and go nearby to steal the fruits of their practice.
After nine years, Loach finally cultivated into a human form. He used the luck of the dragon clan to study Buddhism. His moves made the sound of a dragon's roar, and his reputation spread far and wide. He was named "Tianlong Dharma Monk". He was a very famous disciple of the younger generation of Buddhism, with extraordinary background and strength.
In order to repay the kindness of Jintai monk for regenerating him, Tianlong monk found a place in the Tiannu River basin, drove out all the local alien species, and built a temple for him.
The eldest daughter of the Skywrath Dragon Palace remained expressionless after listening to her seventh brother's story, but with a hint of relief:
"You have cultivated a heart of gratitude and repaying kindness. Seventh brother, your centuries of cultivation have not been in vain. You may return for revenge, but for the next few days, stay quietly in the Dragon Palace until your ancestral return banquet is over. This is also your welcome banquet as the Seventh Prince, and senior aquatic creatures from all corners of the world will be here."
The aquatic creatures scattered in all directions rarely show up to meet each other, so this homecoming banquet can be said to have given the Seventh Prince enough face.
"When the Seventh Prince calms down, you will help him change out of this monk's robe. This is not what he should wear when meeting with the elders."
After saying this, the Dragon Girl left without asking about the tragic massacre at Jintai Temple. She didn't care.
This is a relationship between the Seventh Prince and his monks, and has nothing to do with the Sky Wrath Dragon Palace. He can handle it himself, as long as it does not affect the ancestral recognition banquet.
The maids from the Dragon Palace who stayed behind didn't know how to appease the Seventh Prince who appeared "out of nowhere". They also didn't understand Buddhism and had no common language to talk to. They could only stand there in confusion.
They didn't quite understand why the Seventh Prince of Tiannujiang, after remembering his true identity, didn't regain the pride of the dragon clan, but instead paid so much attention to the monks on land.
Tianlong Monk knelt for a long time. When he came to his senses, he suddenly raised his head and stared upwards.
The breath of the bell mark is approaching!
The murderer who murdered Jintai Temple is actually coming after him?!
A sinister grin appeared on the upright face of the Tianlong monk. "I don't know how you evildoers found this place, but you've come just in time. I'll use your lives as a token of my gratitude for the loss of over a hundred lives in Jintai Temple!"
He kicked off the ground and suddenly jumped up, his body flying straight towards the river surface, leaving a white mark in the water along the way.
On the turbulent surface of the Tiannu River, the water suddenly began to boil.
Then, the surface of the river exploded and waves splashed hundreds of meters high!
The Tianlong monk locked onto the few people soaring in the sky, raised his fist and flew towards them, shouting angrily: "Monsters, give your lives as a sacrifice to the heavens!"
Behind him, more than ten shrimp soldiers and crab generals of the Dragon Palace chased out. No matter what, they had to follow the Seventh Prince of the Dragon Palace to fight. There was no room for them to take action, and they had to show their momentum.
Chu Wuzhi and others were just worrying about how to go into the water to look for people, when the silk thread of the ringing bell was connected to this place, pointing to the Tiannu River.
The water flow of the Tiannu River was fast enough to wash away any subsequent traces, which meant that as soon as they entered the river, the trace of the silk thread was immediately cut off.
Unexpectedly, this Tianlong monk was really enthusiastic and took the initiative to go out and receive guests!
The monk had dragon tendons and bones, with red hair standing up into the sky, like a ferocious Buddha statue. Sanskrit blessings appeared on the muscles of his arms, and his first move was the "Dragon Subduing Palm"!
A large golden handprint slapped out, and the dragon's roar scattered the clouds, even Yun Qingying's cloud-flying technique was affected.
Chu Wuji flew forward with his sword, stepped lightly on the flying sword Mo Zhi in mid-air, used his most skilled starting move, and elbowed him head-on!
The powerful elbow of Gangqi and the great handprint of Jianglong collided, and the collision sound was like the collision of metal and stone!
After all, it is a unique Buddhist skill, so Chu Wuji's blank elbow strike is still a little less powerful, but not by much.
"Why did you massacre the entire Jintai Temple?!" Tianlong monk questioned, his eyes bloodshot and his facial features twisted into those of a dragon beast.
As he spoke, he used his unique Buddhist skills again, using his own dragon power to activate the "Formless Lion Roar Technique". There was a dragon roar hidden around his body, waiting for an opportunity to shock the soul. He pounced into the air and fought with the man in black robe.
It was rare for Chu Wuji to encounter an opponent with a strong physical body, so he was not afraid. He took out the Qilin beast straight knife to fight, and swung it out, creating a blood shadow all over the sky. At the same time, he activated the magic in the straight knife, and the spirit of the Qilin beast appeared, spewing out pillars of fire on the surface of the river.
He was so engrossed in the fight that he forgot for a moment that he was not the one who massacred the Jintai Temple. He cursed sarcastically:
"Are you still questioning me? They're using the excuse of driving away the snake demon, but in reality, they're letting the temple come and make money from the local landlords!"
Suddenly, the dragon's roar sounded unexpectedly, shaking his heart and liver.
But even though the middle door of Chu Wuji's soul cave was wide open, it was guarded by the spirits of two great demons, so the dragon's roar could not affect him at all.
It only shook out his earwax.
Chu Wuji seized this opportunity and swung the giant blade of the chopping board, chopping the Tianlong monk backward and causing him to cough up blood. The force transmitted from the blunt blade was so astonishing that even bones could be heard crackling.
The Tianlong monk was mostly on guard against spells and magical powers, but he didn't expect that after fighting for a long time, not a single spell was cast. He realized that there was something wrong with the opponent's approach. This might be someone who specialized in cultivating the physical body!
This type of enemy has too clear limitations and is easily restrained by magic and supernatural powers, and the cultivation of the primordial spirit is also insufficient.
And after experiencing the torture of "reincarnation" many times, when the monk Tianlong shed his lowly body of a loach and recalled his dragon origin, his spirit became extremely powerful!
He knew what the most painful way for such an opponent to die was, which was to watch his own soul being invaded and his body, which he was most proud of, no longer under his control!
The Tianlong Dharma Monk raised his palms, performed a compassionate salute in anger, and said in a cold voice:
"A little snake demon, setting up a temple to collect offerings, is nothing more than keeping humans captive! When hungry, he feeds on human flesh, and when tired, he practices with incense!
Jintai Temple is helping the people to practice cultivation, allowing them to cultivate blessings in the next life through asceticism in this life, but it has attracted the demons to kill them!
The monk Tianlong secretly opened his "clairvoyance", silently gathering strength and aiming at Chu Wuji's forehead.
"Just honestly decide it based on life and death, it doesn't make sense and you're still forcing it!"
Chu Wuji was almost amused by the nonsense of Tianlong Faseng. His blood was boiling and he only focused on attacking. He fought hard in close combat, attacking Tianlong Faseng's diamond body with punches and swords.
Bai Sujin had already sensed that this Tianlong monk was definitely not human, and at the same time, she sensed his murderous intent, so she quietly sent a message to the green snake:
"Xiaoqing, get ready to take action and stop those minnows! The Tianlong Monk has an extraordinary background, so we must fight quickly!"
The green snake didn't understand what he meant and had many doubts in her heart, but trust was enough. She replied "Okay!" and immediately went around to attack those aquatic creatures!
Chapter 237 "Open!" (Shocking sound)
far away,
Ning Xianzhi and Jiuwu Taoist were flying in the air, their feet on the void. They had already seen the battle over there.
