Chapter 928 Telepathy
After returning to Dancao Mountain, Dancao Mountain naturally held a grand celebration ceremony.
Even Tianyi Patriarch and Zhudao Patriarch broke through the barrier and participated in the celebration after hearing that Xiao Lin had won the position of the leader of the Southern Territory Immortal Dao in one fell swoop.
Xiao Lin, on the contrary, did not like this kind of occasion. After a small gathering with many Yuanying cultivators in Dancao Mountain, he returned to his cave and practiced in seclusion.
The celebration lasted for seven days. Most of the Jindan and Yuanying cultivators within thousands of miles around Dancao Mountain participated in it. As for those second- and third-rate small and medium-sized sects, all the high-level officials were present.
This is not surprising. Dancao Mountain is now the leader of the Southern Territory Immortal Dao. Under the Immortal Dao Order, even the Three Sects Alliance and the Southern Sanmen Alliance have all bowed down. Small and medium-sized sects like them should be more aware of the times and come to make a pledge of surrender early to recognize the leadership status of the Immortal Dao Order.
It can be said that this celebration is the most grand and lively one since the establishment of Dancao Mountain. Every disciple of Dancao Mountain is full of excitement, and at the same time, they are full of pride and their sense of identity is growing day by day.
Xiao Lin doesn't care about all this. After handing over the arrangement method of the Heavenly Thunder, Earthly Stars and Falling Battle to Jiang Yingxue, he hid in the Hongluan Cave and closed his eyes.
This time, Xiao Lin has decided that except for the Tianyi Patriarch and the Zhudao Patriarch who stayed behind to take charge of the Western Extreme Ancient Buddha Tianzong, all the Yuanying cultivators in the entire Dancao Mountain will go to assist the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong in arranging the formation.
Jiang Yingxue was also very excited after hearing the news, and after seeing the Heavenly Thunder, Earthly Stars and Falling Formation, she was even more pleasantly surprised. This formation is already the top formation among the high-level formations, and it should be infinitely close to the legendary Heavenly Punishment Formation.
So she immediately followed Xiao Lin's instructions and summoned many Yuanying cultivators to start comprehending and practicing.
More than half a month later, Xiao Lin left Guxuan Mountain silently and headed for the Central Plains.
On the way, he had informed Yulin Zhantian through the Legend of the Flying Sword. He first sneaked into the Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong to rescue his wife Lin Xueying, and then cooperated with the inside and outside to wipe out the high-level leaders of the Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong.
This time, the primary goal of destroying the Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong was to eliminate the nine golden bodies of the Buddha Lotus Bodhisattva, the five hundred golden body Arhats, and many Buddhist cultivators in the Buddha Light Realm, and destroy the foundation of the Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong in one fell swoop. In this way, even if the Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong wanted to make a comeback, it would not be able to do it.
......
Jitian Mountain Range, Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong.
In the Golden Summit Hall of the Buddha Kingdom, a young monk sat on the lotus platform.
He looked at the golden bodies of the Buddha Lotus Bodhisattva below, with a hint of pride in his eyes. This person was the monk Kugen. After the Buddha Lord passed away, he changed his name to Wugen and temporarily took over the position of the Buddha Lord.
"Brother Kuyin, the place where Lin Xueying is facing the wall must be better defended. Xiao Lin must not break into the Buddha Kingdom and rescue her again."
Monk Kuyin heard this and chanted a Buddhist name, saying, "Buddha, please rest assured. Lin Xueying is imprisoned in the Infinite Lotus Fire Cave, and is being burned by the Infinite Lotus Fire day and night. Not only can her ice magic power not be used, but even her own magic power is being consumed day and night. After a hundred years, her Tao foundation will be completely destroyed, and she will be no different from an ordinary person."
At this time, another fifty-year-old monk next to him also chanted a Buddhist name: "The Lotus Fire Immortal Burning Formation has been set up in the Infinite Lotus Fire Cave. Not only that, but two junior brothers are guarding the cave entrance. I think even if Xiao Lin has great magical powers, he will definitely not be able to break in."
The Rootless Buddha frowned slightly when he heard this. Only Monk Ku Yin and he knew Xiao Lin's magical powers. It was unfathomable. On that day in Longyin Valley, the three of them, the Golden Bodies of the Lotus Bodhisattvas, joined forces to besiege him, but were still defeated one by one. If it weren't for the appearance of Uncle Wuxiang at the last moment, they might have gone to see the Buddha.
So after pondering for a moment, he continued, "Brother Ku Yi, please summon eighty-one golden arhats to set up the Arhat Demon Subduing Array outside the Infinite Lotus Fire Cave, so that even if Xiao Lin enters, he will not be able to leave."
"Lord Buddha, isn't this a bit of an overreaction? Xiao Lin is just a great monk after all. The three golden bodies of the Buddha Lotus Bodhisattvas guarding the Infinite Lotus Fire Cave are already a compliment to him. Do you need eighty-one golden arhats to set up the Arhat Demon Subduing Array? In this way, wouldn't it be impossible to set up the five hundred arhats of our Buddha Kingdom's Great Lotus Treasure Array to protect the Buddha?"
"It doesn't matter. This Buddha has already issued an order to summon the golden abbots of many Buddhist temples in the periphery to return to the Buddha Kingdom to replace the eighty-one golden arhats. Xiao Lin's magical powers are unfathomable, so no matter how cautious you are, it is not too much."
Monk Ku Yi heard this and was dissatisfied in his heart, but he no longer insisted. After chanting the Buddha's name, he respectfully said, "Respect the Buddha's order." After that, he turned and left.
"Brother Kutong, have you contacted Uncle Wuxiang?" At this time, Wugen Buddha turned his head and looked at an old monk who looked to be in his seventies or eighties, and asked calmly.
The old monk opened his eyes after hearing this, and his white eyebrows about an inch long also extended. He sighed and said, "Reporting to the Buddha, Kutong has been trying to contact Uncle Wuxiang through the Wanli Heart Transmission Divine Power, but there has been no response. Maybe Uncle Wuxiang has left the Buddha Kingdom hundreds of thousands of miles away, or the place he went to can isolate the brother's magical power."
Upon hearing this, Wugen Buddha's eyes flashed with a trace of panic. He glanced at everyone and said, "You can retreat. You must be careful during this period. Brother Kuyin and Brother Kutong stay for a while."
After everyone left, Wugen Buddha looked at Kutong monk and said: "This Buddha has been restless recently, always feeling that something big is going to happen. Brother Kutong's practice of his telepathic method, is there any clue?"
Kutong monk was slightly stunned when he heard this, then lowered his eyebrows and chanted a Buddhist name: "Buddha should worry too much. My Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong has stood in the Jitian Holy Realm for countless tens of thousands of years. Many disasters have come, but they have not been resolved one by one. Buddha does not need to worry about this."
Seeing that Kutong monk was not understanding and pretending to be confused, Wugen Buddha could not help but flash a little anger in his eyes. After all, his position as Buddha was designated by Uncle Wuxiang, not selected. He also knew very well that many Buddha Lotus Bodhisattvas were not convinced.
It was only because of Uncle Wuxiang's authority that he dared not object. His purpose was actually to let Kutong monk use the secret technique of the Buddhist sect to predict his good and bad fortune, so as to avoid disasters and make plans early.
However, this telepathic method would cost half a century of life each time it was used, so although Monk Kutong knew his intention, he still pretended not to know.
"Brother Kutong, this matter concerns the safety and survival of our Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong. Please use his telepathic ability to help our Buddha country and this Buddha master to predict it."
Kutong couldn't help but show a bit of bitterness on his face when he heard it. The rootless Buddha had already put the big hat of the safety of the Buddha country on him. If he refused again, he would be ungrateful and would inevitably be excluded and harassed in the future.
Thinking of this, Monk Kutong put his hands together, bowed and said: "The Buddha ordered, and the old monk will naturally obey."
After saying this, he put his hands together, lowered his eyebrows and closed his eyes and sat upright, and the sound of reciting scriptures rang out from his mouth.
At the same time, a strong golden light began to appear around him. This golden light gathered in front of him and soon condensed into a huge swastika. The golden scriptures flew around and soon disappeared into the surrounding void.
After a cup of tea, the swastika floating in the void suddenly turned blood red.
The faces of Wugen Buddha and Kuyin monk changed drastically. At this time, Kutong monk spit out a mouthful of blood with a "puff" sound and opened his eyes. As he opened his eyes, the golden light in the sky also dissipated, and the bloody swastika also turned into countless blood lights and disappeared.
"A sign of great evil?" Kutong monk's face was pale without any blood. He looked at Wugen Buddha and Kuyin monk, and didn't know what to say for a while?
"The old monk will use his mind power again." This time, Monk Kutong was determined to use his mind power again without waiting for Wugen Buddha and Monk Kuyin to dissuade him. After a while, when the golden swastika turned blood red again, Wugen Buddha and Monk Kuyin looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
"Puff~~" Monk Kutong spit out two mouthfuls of blood in succession, and the blood at the corners of his mouth kept flowing, but his face was pale and he exclaimed: "My Buddhist sect will encounter a great disaster that has never happened in the ancient times. I am afraid that the sect will be destroyed."
Monk Kutong shouted loudly, and the golden light around him suddenly converged. Then, golden halos spread out from his body in all directions. In an instant, his face began to age at an alarming speed. In just a moment, it seemed as if he had aged hundreds of years.
His body, which was sitting cross-legged, also softened, and his head fell directly, and he passed away.
It turns out that if the telepathy is used continuously within three years, the life span consumed will increase several times. In other words, the second time he used the telepathy, he directly lost hundreds of years of his life span, and he died directly because his life span was exhausted.
But neither the rootless Buddha nor the monk Kuyin cared about the life and death of the monk Kutong, but was shocked by the result predicted by the monk Kutong.
"Blood flashed across the sky. This is the result that has never appeared since Junior Brother Kutong practiced the telepathy. Is our Buddhist country really going to suffer a catastrophe?" After a long time, the monk Kuyin swallowed his saliva and said.
"When the demons appeared in the world, the world of cultivating immortals suffered a great disaster, but our Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong was still safe and sound. I believe we will be the same this time." The rootless Buddha pondered for a moment and said slowly.
Kuyin knew that Wugen Buddha was just comforting himself. Kutong practiced telepathy, and it cost his lifespan to use it, so there would be no mistakes. Moreover, Kutong used telepathy twice in succession, and the results were exactly the same.
"Brother Kuyin, this matter must not be spread. This Buddha will contact Uncle Wuxiang as soon as possible. At the same time, the entire Buddhist country needs to be on high alert to prevent possible disasters." Wugen Buddha said to Kuyin while holding the Buddhist beads. Kuyin clearly saw that Wugen Buddha's fingers had turned white because of the force.
"Brother understands." After Kuyin bowed, he turned around and left the Golden Summit Hall.
After Kuyin left, Wugen Buddha couldn't help showing a bitter expression on his face. He had been restless recently and wanted Kutong to predict his fortune, but he didn't expect to get such a result.
Wugen Buddha was puzzled. With the current strength and status of the Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong, who could threaten the Buddhist country?
"Could it be the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong?" The first person he thought of was the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong. The Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong was not only the leader of the immortal way, but also ranked first among the four great Tianzongs. The most important thing was that the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong was not only the power of the Haoyang Mountain Gate, but also had thirty-six mountain masters and three hundred and sixty branch courtyards distributed throughout the Daqian Dynasty. Even each branch courtyard was equivalent to a medium-sized sect."
"Could it be that the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong wants to destroy our Buddhist country?" After thinking about it, Wugen Buddha Lord felt that it was unlikely. The Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong had a deep foundation. Although after the battle in Longyin Valley, it had a deep grudge with the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong, not only tens of thousands of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong disciples died, but also countless ordinary soldiers and civilians died.
As a result, the power of the Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong suffered a great loss, and Junior Brother Kuxing was killed by the demon in the Dragon Spirit Illusion, and Junior Brother Kuguo was killed by Xiao Lin. As a result, the strength of the Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong was greatly reduced. In comparison, the high-level combat power of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong was not damaged.
In this way, the catastrophe of the Buddha Kingdom this time is likely related to the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong, but the Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong is one of the four major Tianzongs after all, with a deep foundation. As the Buddha Lord, he knows that there is not only Wuxiang, a Nirvana Realm cultivator behind the Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong. If the Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong really reaches the moment of life and death, those Nirvana Realm beings hidden behind it will definitely not stand idly by.
After thinking for more than an hour, Wugen Buddha Lord has not figured out what the catastrophe calculated by Monk Kutong is related to, but he still issued an order that the entire Buddha Kingdom will be under martial law in the near future. All Buddhist disciples above the Buddha Light Realm are not allowed to go out at will unless they issue an order themselves.
......
In the Bodhi Courtyard, a young monk was carrying a food box and walking towards the courtyard.
This Bodhi Courtyard is an extremely important department of the Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong, responsible for punishment and teaching, and can be regarded as the core institution of the Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong.
The Bodhi Courtyard is divided into the Discipline Courtyard and the Transmission Courtyard. The Discipline Courtyard is managed by Monk Fatian, who is not only the head of the Discipline Courtyard, but also the head of the five hundred golden arhats. His cultivation has reached the peak of the late Prajna period, and his arhat golden body has also been cultivated to the state of great success.
He is in charge of dozens of arhat golden bodies, and there are hundreds of Buddhist practitioners in the Buddha Light Realm.
The little monk walked into a courtyard gate, where several monks were sitting, meditating with their eyes closed, and comprehending the Dharma.
As the little monk walked in, he opened the food box in front of several monks, which contained some vegetarian dishes and a dozen white steamed buns.
When several monks saw the little monk bringing vegetarian dishes, they immediately stopped practicing, gathered around, picked up the steamed buns and started to eat.
"I don't know what's going on. The whole temple is under martial law. We, the low-level disciples of the Great Awakening Realm, can't go out. We stay in the room all day and are almost sick."
"Just bear it. Eat quickly. After eating, we still have to inspect the Thirty-Six Prison Caves. I don't know what the master is thinking. The Thirty-Six Prison Caves are guarded by our Buddhist monks. They are as solid as a rock. Even the powerful people of the Prajna Realm can enter the Thirty-Six Prison Caves but can't get out. Why do we, the low-level disciples, have to inspect them? I really can't figure it out."
"What's so difficult to understand? We inspect whether the formation is loose or damaged. It's all hard work. In comparison, those uncles are just meditating and practicing. It's much more comfortable to guard the gate."
