Chapter 3879 Buddhist Hermitage (1/2)

The morning bell rang, the moon had not yet set, and there was a hint of fish belly white on the horizon.

Da Sikong was carrying a broom made of bamboo poles and sorghum, walking on the bamboo forest path, his fat white head shaking, humming an unknown tune in his mouth.

In the bamboo forest, birds are chirping and insects are chirping, and the mist is like dew on a white shirt. In the distant bookstore, a boy's morning reading could be heard.

Although there are wars and chaos outside, and the universe is shattered, here it is peaceful and peaceful.

"Squeak!"

Da Sikong pushed open the gate of the academy, looked at the dead branches and leaves on the long stairs, and said: "I knew it, I knew it, the wind was high and the rain was strong last night, and the garden would definitely be filled with leaves. Every autumn rain, every cold, and winter again. It’s coming, how many late autumns is this?”

Amidst the rustling, Da Sikong started cleaning step by step.

After sweeping the last stone steps, it was already dawn. Scattered bamboo leaves fell again on the place that had been swept, but Da Sikong had no interest in sweeping it again. Anyway, it was Er Sikong's turn to clean it in the afternoon!

Da Sikong was carrying the broom and was about to return to the academy, but he heard the sharp sound of breaking wind coming from the sky, so he immediately got out of the way.

I saw a three-foot-tall golden carriage breaking through the clouds, swooping down, rushing down the stone steps, and rushed into the academy gate.

The speed was too fast, and a powerful storm rolled up, causing the Liquid Spirit Bamboo on both sides of the stone steps to shake violently, causing fallen leaves to fly.

Da Sikong looked at the fallen leaves and dead branches piled up on the stone steps, dumbfounded, and said: "I'm going to... Amitabha, it's all in vain... The daughter of Tianzun is amazing, hey, the carriage cannot directly enter Tianren Academy..."

Da Sikong threw down his broom, jumped over a dozen stone steps at a time, and chased after him.

The golden carriage rushed into Tianren Academy, immediately alerting all the monks.

Nalan Danqing ordered dozens of boys and girls to continue reading in the morning. He walked out of the bookstore and looked at the golden carriage heading straight towards the depths of the academy, with a look of worry in his eyes.

Xu Tulai was sitting cross-legged in a bamboo forest, giving morning lessons to a group of corrupt cultivators. At this moment, both he and the evil cultivators were nervously looking at the golden carriage speeding away.

Who doesn’t recognize Xuanyuan Lian’s gold bicycle frame?

What big thing happened that allowed a big shot like Xuanyuan Lian to drive into Tianren Academy?

Such a big event as the Hell Sea and the Asura Star Pillar Realm colliding with the Heavenly Court will not happen again, right?

The golden carriage was parked outside a Buddhist temple located under ancient golden-leaf pine trees, with fallen leaves blowing in the wind.

Xuanyuan Lian jumped down from the carriage. There was no deliberate sound, but every word she said spread throughout Tianren Academy: "Master Can Deng Jie Tian, ​​please show up to save people! It's urgent!"

The suppressive power of the green lotus mark between the eyebrows has disappeared, but Xuanyuan Lian is even more worried.

"Swish!"

Nalan Danqing, Luo Shuihan, Zhang Yuyan, Er Sikong, Xu Rulai, many evil cultivators, and Da Sikong, who was catching up out of breath, surrounded the golden carriage.

Xuanyuan Lian glanced at them but did not see the figures of Master Jie Tian and Can Deng, and said coldly: "What are you looking at? Leave the academy quickly."

Everyone looked at each other.

Er Sikong clasped his hands together and bowed: "May I ask the deity, when exactly did it happen and why are you so anxious? The Buddha said that there is no thought in silence..."

"I told you to leave quickly, didn't you hear me?" Xuanyuan Lian said.

"Hey, God, don't worry. Even if the sky falls, the heavens will hold up."

With a smile on his face, Da Sikong pulled Er Sikong back and said through a message: "This other person is the daughter of the Heavenly Lord, a transcendent and powerful person with boundless freedom. Why are you joining in the fun? Are you being scolded?"

Xuanyuan Lian couldn't bear it any longer. These people in Tianren Academy were so ignorant that they were as stable as old dogs. He planned to use his magical powers to forcefully teleport them away.

At this time, the door of the Buddhist temple opened automatically, and a broken lamp in white monk clothes appeared in front of everyone.

Can Deng had a quiet temperament about him. He stepped out, glanced at the golden carriage, then looked at Xuanyuan Lian, joined his hands and saluted.

Xuanyuan Lian quickly returned the gift.

She learned from the owner of Chixia Feixian Valley that Master Candeng was an amazing reclusive Buddhist cultivator and she did not dare to neglect them.

Xuanyuan Lian is about to tell what happened in the golden carriage...

However, he saw that the curtain of the carriage was opened by the seventy-two lotus, and he immediately walked out of it and stood outside the courtyard covered with golden leaves.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Ruochen also walked out.

Xuanyuan Lian looked at this scene in disbelief, and carefully observed Zhang Ruochen up and down, trying to determine whether his soul and consciousness had been controlled by the Seventy-Two-Rank Lotus.

Zhang Ruochen smiled back.

"Uncle Master!"

Da Sikong and Er Sikong had no idea of ​​the seriousness of the situation. When they saw Zhang Ruochen, they were overjoyed and rushed over immediately.

"It's father!"

Zhang Yuyan was about to step forward, but was stopped by Luo Shuihan.

Luo Shuihan saw some clues. Zhang Ruochen and Seventy-two-Rank Lotus seemed to be standing there casually, but their auras were tightly bound to each other, which was very wrong.

However, Luo Shuihan was still far away from their level of cultivation. He couldn't see through what was going on and couldn't judge how dangerous it was.

Zhang Ruochen's body was stiff and motionless, allowing Da Sikong and Er Sikong to beat and hug him.

From the moment he stepped out of the combined attack formation, Zhang Ruochen pushed the talisman of the Emperor Talisman to the extreme, locking the seventy-two-grade lotus. As long as the Seventy-Two-Rank Lotus takes action, these runes will appear.

Zhang Ruochen did not hope that these talismans could block the Seventy-Second Lotus or save his life, but instead used it to gain time to self-destruct the divine source.

He reveals his determination at every turn.

As long as the Seventy-two Grade Lotus was not sure to stop Zhang Ruochen from self-destructing his divine source, she would not easily make a move. Any cultivator of a high realm would not be willing to be taken away by a cultivator of a lower realm.

Unfortunately, the situation in Tianren Academy was far beyond Zhang Ruochen's expectations. Xuanyuan Lian and Old Man Jie did not send everyone away in advance.

Facing the old acquaintances in the academy, Zhang Ruochen's determination to self-destruct his divine source was no longer so firm.

Originally, he still hoped that Old Man Jie and Candeng could delay the Seventy-two Grade Lotus for some time. With his experience in the ancient abandoned city, Zhang Ruochen was confident that he could control the ancestral power in the Nine Heavens World in a short time, so as to fight back against the Seventy-two Grade Lotus.

Now, it can be said that everything is lost.

It can be said that this is the perfect time for the Seventy-two Grade Lotus to kill him.

However, the Seventy-two Grade Lotus did not take this opportunity to make a move. Instead, it turned the aura that was pulling on Zhang Ruochen to Candeng, who was dressed in white opposite.

Zhang Ruochen could sense that the Seventy-two Grade Lotus was forced to turn, not subjectively.

This is very interesting!

This means that the Seventy-two Grade Lotus sensed a dangerous aura from Candeng.

It was so dangerous that if she was distracted by Zhang Ruochen, she would be defeated instantly.

But how is this possible?

Zhang Ruochen had seen many Tianzun-level masters take action, and had fought with many Tianzun-level masters. There was no doubt that the Seventy-two Grade Lotus was the strongest one.

Even if he was as strong as Xutian, he needed to join forces with Fengtian in the same realm to gain a slight advantage.

According to legend, even the Emperor of Fengdu was exiled to the long river of time by the Seventy-two Grade Lotus.

Such a powerful person, how could Candeng threaten her?

Zhang Ruochen took this opportunity to pull the Grand Marshal and the Second Marshal to move to the bottom of the bamboo forest in the distance, and asked Nalan Danqing: "Where is Jitian?"

"Jie Lao entered the Nine Heavens World."

Nalan Danqing asked immediately: "What a terrible aura, suppressing the mental power so much that it cannot leave the body. Is she the legendary Seventy-two Grade Lotus?"

Zhang Ruochen nodded and signaled everyone to leave quickly.

The Buddha's aura was lingering on the body of the Seventy-two Lotuses. He said, "I have been practicing Buddhism all my life, and I believe that no one in the world can surpass me. I didn't expect to see a great monk here today! When did Buddhism produce a great Buddha like you?"

Can Deng said, "What great Buddha is there? We are all in the mortal world, just two ascetic monks who have not yet reached the other shore."

It was obviously the first time he saw the Seventy-two Lotuses, but he had a subtle feeling of being peeped into his past and present lives.

Zhang Ruochen secretly applauded Can Deng. Just one word was like a long sword piercing the heart of the Seventy-two Lotuses. At the same time, he did not show his edge, and was also modest ascetic monk.

The Seventy-two Lotus said, "Since you are an ascetic monk, why are you hiding in the Tianren Academy to avoid the quiet? Where does suffering come from? Where does the practice come from?"

Can Deng raised a palm with his palm facing up and said, "Only when you know your limit can you be determined, only when you are determined can you be quiet, only when you are quiet can you be at peace, only when you are at peace can you think, and only when you think can you get it."

As soon as he uttered the word "get", a golden leaf fell right into his palm.

The Seventy-two Lotus said, "Can you get it?"

"Everything has its roots and ends, and things have their beginnings and ends. If you know what comes first and what comes later, you will be close to the Tao." Can Deng said.

...

Xuanyuan Lian, who did not leave, had already retreated to Zhang Ruochen's side. He was confused and said, "Why are they still discussing the Tao?"

Zhang Ruochen heard some clues and his eyes were deep.

Seventy-two Lotus clasped his hands together and said, "Master, you have profound Buddhist teachings. I have learned a lot! You can leave today. Everything in Tianren Academy is none of your business!"

Can Deng shook his head and smiled, "Are you still going to the Nine Heavens?"

"Yes."

"Want to kill someone?"

"I will kill him."

Can Deng responded with a Buddhist salute, saying, "Amitabha! You spend all day picking flowers and choosing fires, but you don't know that you are in the temple. Where is the end of the sea of ​​suffering? Turn around and you are still on this shore. Everything you pursue is just an obsession in your heart! Let go of the obsession and you will naturally escape from the sea of ​​suffering."

Seventy-two Lotus has a firm state of mind and is no longer affected by Can Deng. He said, "Don't persuade others to be good without experiencing their suffering. If the master wants to stop me, why don't you show your true strength and see who is better?"

"I haven't fought with anyone for a long time. Is this really necessary?" Can Deng said.

Seventy-two-Rank Lotus said: "Master said that I am in the sea of ​​suffering, so why am I not in the sea of ​​suffering? I don't believe that Master's cultivation can reach this point today without the mountains of corpses and seas of blood."

Can Deng's face showed a trace of pain, and his eyes were quite blurred.

"Wow!"

Seventy-two-Rank Lotus held the Heavenly Pillar that had become the size of a chopstick, and the speed was so fast that it exceeded the rules of light and space, and it hit Can Deng's eyebrows directly.

Any cultivator who blocked her steps must die.

Even the Buddhist cultivator in front of her made her admire and respect her.

It was precisely because of admiration and respect that she went all out in this attack. Such a close distance, plus Can Deng was stimulated by her words and fell into some kind of memory, she had full confidence that this attack could severely injure Can Deng and make him lose his combat power.

However, as soon as the Seventy-two-Rank Lotus approached Can Deng, she found that the world around her had changed drastically, and it was pitch black all around.

Can Deng's body became dozens of times larger, overlooking her.

Like Buddha looking down at the world.

"Wow!"

Can Deng pointed out and hit the Heavenly Pillar in her hand.

"Boom!"

The 72nd Grade Lotus instantly returned to reality, her body flew backwards, and collided heavily with the golden carriage frame.

The next moment, she and the golden carriage frame were pulled into an empty world. In the world, only Candeng's tall body was sitting cross-legged, with thousands of magic lamps floating behind him.

The fighting will of the Seventy-Two-Rank Lotus was fully aroused, and he immediately summoned the Time and Space Chaos Lotus and held it in his left hand. The right hand released order and spirit, rushing towards the golden frame, trying to summon the resentful spirits of Luo Shui and the Weo Shui clan.

"Uh-huh!"

Before the Seventy-Two-Rank Lotus could clearly see Can Deng's figure, he was hit hard between the eyebrows, and his body flew out, falling into an endless fall. He didn't know where he was going to fall...

The Time and Space Chaos Lotus in his hand has long been taken away.

This was the most tragic defeat she had suffered since she started practicing. She looked at the broken lamp getting farther and farther away, her eyes always filled with hollowness and questions.

"I will save the resentful spirits, you can go ahead!" This was the last voice she heard.

In Tianren Academy, Xuanyuan Lian did not see clearly the confrontation between Can Deng and Seventy-two Grade Lotus.

All I could see was that Can Deng and Seventy-two-Rank Lotus had been standing there, and suddenly Seventy-two-Rank Lotus disappeared without even sensing any power fluctuations.

Xuanyuan Lian rushed over and asked, "Where has she gone?"

Can Deng said: "Leave!"

"Why did you leave so suddenly?" Xuanyuan Lian was puzzled.

Can Deng looked at the Time and Space Chaos Lotus in his hand and said, "People need a reason to live, but they don't need a reason to leave."

Zhang Ruochen could see some traces of their fighting skills, and he admired Can Deng in his heart. In the past, I only knew that he was powerful, but I didn't expect that he was so powerful.

Zhang Ruochen said: "Why did Master let her go?"

Can Deng handed the Time and Space Chaos Lotus to Zhang Ruochen and said with a smile: "It's up to you to settle the cause and effect between you. A poor monk who interferes with the grievances in the mortal world has already caused trouble for himself. From now on, there is no way to be clean!" "

Can Deng shook his head, walked into the golden carriage, took away the resentful spirits of Luo Shui and Ruoshui clan, and then returned to the Shushe Buddhist Temple.

"I just said that Master Can Deng must have a way."

Da Sikong and Er Sikong, one on the left and one on the right, sneaked out of the bamboo forest. They were all overjoyed to see that the Seventy-Two-Rank Lotus had left.

Xu Rulai, Nalan Danqing, Luo Shuihan, Zhang Yuyan and others also returned to the academy after receiving messages from Da Sikong and Er Sikong.

Chan Bing, Xiu Chen, Yuan Sheng, and Qiangu Empress who were in the carriage came out one after another and asked Zhang Ruochen about the situation.

"There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the universe, and the seventy-two-grade lotus is not yet invincible."

Zhang Ruochen pointed at the Buddhist temple behind him, knowing that he had come to the Tianren Academy to confront the darkness and weirdness. Old Man Jie was unreliable, and at least there was Master Candeng.

However, after encountering this crisis, Zhang Ruochen became more eager to attack the middle stage of Immortality.
