Chapter 665: Master-Disciple Ceremony

In the slightly dim hall, candlelight flickered slightly on the walls on both sides. In the illumination of these little candlelights, many hungry ghosts of the younger generation gathered in front of the old portrait in the deepest part, frowning and thinking, or whispering to each other.

Not long after, when all the young hungry ghosts saw the strangeness of "Lu Xin" and didn't understand why "Lu Xin" was so stunned, as if to help "Lu Xin", a "hum" sound suddenly rang in the whole hall.

Except for "Lu Xin", all the hungry ghosts turned around suddenly and found that on the walls on both sides of the hall, and also under the candlelight, there was a faint blue light emerging.

Then, the blue light suddenly became brighter, forming eight bright light curtains. And the light curtain that had just formed quickly stretched, and in a few breaths it turned into eight light curtain doors.

The appearance of the light curtain door reminded all the young hungry ghosts present of the reminder of Ghost Hou Lu before. So they quickly realized that the world behind the light curtain door was the world created by the ghost king himself as mentioned by the ghost lord Lu, and it was also a world where the ghost king's avenue might be hidden.

The originally quiet ghost king's hall became a little lively with the emergence of eight hidden doors. Before, the younger generation of hungry ghosts observed the entire hall and did not find anything unusual. They knew that what the ghost lord Lu said was true, and the ghost king's avenue was probably not hidden in the Wuliang Hall. Now, the door to the world created by the ghost king has been opened, so they can't hold back.

However, in the first time, no hungry ghost rushed to the light curtain door. Because the eight light curtain doors are exactly the same in appearance and aura, it is impossible to see what the world behind the door looks like through them. Therefore, every younger generation of hungry ghosts can't judge in which world behind the door it is possible to find the ghost king's avenue, and can't judge which door they should enter.

This deadlock lasted for a whole hour. Because no matter what kind of observation method any hungry ghost on the scene used, they could not see any clues from the eight light curtain doors.

After an hour was wasted in vain, some hungry ghosts finally began to notice the importance of time, and remembered that the entire ceremony of inheriting the Dao lasted only three days.

So, finally a young hungry ghost stood up, with a decisive look on his face and said: "Since it is impossible to judge, just pick one and try your luck, it is better than standing there blindly!"

After that, he turned into a stream of light and rushed into a certain light curtain door.

As the first hungry ghost rushed out, the remaining hungry ghosts began to be unable to hold back. So, in the next hour, those who were confident acted alone, and those who felt unsure found companions, and gradually rushed into a certain light curtain door.

Of course, there were also some hungry ghosts who might have guessed the identity of "Lu Xin" or saw that "Lu Xin" was the strongest cultivator participating in the ceremony of inheriting the Dao. So they initially planned to follow "Lu Xin".

But later, when they found that "Lu Xin" was completely indifferent to everything around him and just stood silently in front of the portrait, they finally gave up their plan and rushed into a certain light curtain door and disappeared in the Wuliang Hall.

So, until two hours after the younger generation of hungry ghosts entered the hall, the entire hall finally returned to absolute silence again. In addition to the eight light curtain doors still emitting slight fluctuations, the only difference between the hall and the usual closed time was that "Lu Xin", the outsider, was still standing quietly in front of the portrait.

However, at this moment, the aura of "Lu Xin" was extremely weak, as if it was about to completely dissipate. So at this moment, his existence had an inexplicable sense of harmony with the entire hall, as if he belonged here.

In this way, time passed for another full hour. "Lu Xin", who had been standing motionless on the steps, finally had a slight flicker in his eyes at this moment.

Then, he suddenly took a deep breath, knelt down slowly towards the portrait, and said in a hoarse voice: "The great kindness of the ancestor's teachings, Huan Yin will never forget it. Today, I have seen the true face of the ancestor, and Huan Yin has no regrets in his life!"

After this knock, "Lu Xin" did not get up for a long time. It seemed that this knock had the power to travel through time, giving him the opportunity to finally pay tribute to the strongest cultivator in the Three Realms who he had never seen but had taught him.

"Lu Xin" did not know the cultivator in the portrait, but the moment he saw the portrait, he knew very clearly that the cultivator in the painting was the legendary warrior who challenged Ksitigarbha and Emperor Shi, and was invincible in the Three Realms in ancient times - Wuliang Venerable!

Such a judgment does not need any reason, it is just a simple intuition. However, this intuition contains extremely complex things. It can be said that it is an intuition of mutual appreciation, an intuition of attraction of the same Taoism, or an intuition between a disciple and a teacher.

How many years have passed since "Lü Xin" entered the Dao in the human world. And now, he has walked too many roads and experienced too many things on the path of cultivation, becoming a truly strong man.

That he is today is related to the cultivation of his master, to Duan Yun's upbringing, to the help of Ziyin Sect, to his own efforts, and to many opportunities and good fortune. However, what he knew very well was that those things were not the most critical factors. The real key is the "Infinite Sutra".

Without the "Infinite Sutra", "Lu Xin" would not even have the qualifications to enter the Tao, so what more could be said about it later?

However, Venerable Wuliang's kindness to "Lu Xin" was far more than just a copy of "Wuliang Sutra". The legend of Venerable Wuliang, his spirit, his guidance, and even the treasures and speculations he still passed down after countless thousands of years have all benefited "Lu Xin" a lot on his journey of cultivating Taoism. Without these things, perhaps "Lu Xin" would have given up on himself due to excessive pressure, or been eliminated by a stronger person.

So in fact, in "Lu Xin's" heart, he has always regarded Venerable Wuliang as his master. Although he would never have the chance to meet this master, this did not prevent him from putting the Infinite Venerable in the most important position in his heart. Naturally, this did not hinder his eager expectation to meet the Infinite Venerable.

Therefore, although "Lu Xin" never thought that he would really be able to see the face of Venerable Wuliang, in fact, he had been waiting for this day for a long time in his subconscious. So it's not surprising that he's acting a little out of sorts now.

Even if what you see in front of you is just the portrait of Venerable Wuliang, even if the portrait is very old. But "Lu Xin" finally got a rough idea of ​​Venerable Wuliang's appearance, and had the opportunity to perform a master-disciple ceremony on him to express his gratitude. This is undoubtedly a great satisfaction for a monk like him who respects his master and respects his teachings.

After a long time, "Lu Xin" slowly raised his head. And when he looked at the portrait again, his eyes were already slightly red.

"The patriarch's great kindness in preaching and teaching, Huan will remember it in his heart throughout his life, and he will never forget it in his death! Huan Yin will do his best to fulfill his grand vision. If he can't open that door, he will never become an immortal!"

Every word was sonorous, like an oath of alliance, echoing in the hall for a long time. Especially the last sentence "I swear I will not become an immortal", the determination contained in it is so strong that it seems to have formed a substance, making the power of this sentence seem to be able to penetrate gold and crack rocks!

After taking a deep breath, "Lu Xin" finally stood up, bowed to the portrait of Venerable Wuliang again, and said: "Since the Patriarch expected that Huan Yin would come here, he would definitely stay here. I am grateful to the founder for his guidance so that Huan Yin can escape from the trap of this ghost realm."

After saying that, "Lu Xin" finally moved his eyes away from the portrait of Venerable Wuliang, turned around and began to look around the entire hall.

At this moment, Wuliang Hall was already empty. Except for the eight light curtain doors that still exist, it looks completely lifeless.

"This door was not left by the ancestor." Feeling the aura coming from the eight doors, "Lu Xin" quickly came to such a conclusion.

Following this conclusion, he soon felt that the so-called Ghost King's Avenue might not exist in the world behind these eight gates. Because "Lu Xin" knows very well that the Ghost King's path is the path of the Infinite Venerable!

But "Lu Xin" didn't dare to be too sure about such a judgment. After all, the Ghost King should have entered the Wuliang Palace before, so with his power, it might not be impossible to leave something behind in the Wuliang Palace.

"In the end, was the Patriarch's way left by the Patriarch himself in the Wuliang Hall, or by the Ghost King?" His brows quickly furrowed, and "Lu Xin" realized that even he didn't know how to make a choice at this moment. .
