The leader had white beard and eyebrows, and was unrestrained and ostentatious. There were nine scars on his shiny head, symbolizing a very high status and qualifications, just like a golden arhat. He was none other than the head of the Demon Subduing Hall of the Golden Zen Temple, Master Dusha!

Following closely behind him were two monks, one big and one small. They were Yuan Xin and Yuan Chong, two of the "Three Saints of Golden Zen".

Master Dusha is the second most important person in Jinchan Temple, second only to the first person and above everyone else. The fact that he came to Nanman in person shows how much importance Jinchan Temple attaches to this matter.

This was Yuan Xin's first time in Nanman. The 11-year-old boy was very curious. He kept watching and observing along the way and found everything interesting. Of course, even if he was attacked by monsters, there would be the mighty monk Yuan Chong to help him. He could just watch the fun and cheer them on.

Mount Putuo, where the Jinchan Temple is located, is located in the archipelago on the east side of Zhongzhou, and is known as the "Buddhist Kingdom of the Sea and Sky". The monks from the Jinchan Temple went straight south and after entering Nanmanzhou, they were not far from the War God Mountain in the east, but their exact location was unclear. They were afraid of missing the battle, so they kept on traveling at full speed.

Monk Jin Chan had profound knowledge of Buddhism and superb martial arts. He encountered several waves of monster attacks along the way, but he managed to resolve them all without any danger.

Master Dusha looked far to the south, but the fog was so thick that he could not see anything clearly, just like the current situation in the world. He could not help but frown.

Although Yuan Xin was young, he was very good at observing people's expressions. "Master, what are you worried about? Are you worried that the Jiuli tribe has been slaughtered by the monsters?"

Master Dusha nodded, "The Southern Barbarians are not like the Central Plains. There are all kinds of strange things. The Jiuli tribe was once very powerful and could compete with the Yanhuang tribe, but now it is not as powerful as before."

Yuan Xin asked curiously, "Have you ever been to Nanman?"

Master Dusha said: "I have lived for eighty years, so I have certainly been here before."

Although Yuan Xin has a deep affinity with Buddhism, he is still too young and has not come into contact with powerful monsters. He is a little nervous, "Then...are the monsters really that powerful?"

Although Master Dusha had a fiery temper and was never afraid of evil demons, he still sighed in front of his apprentice, "If he wasn't so powerful, how could eight of the nine states in the world be occupied by monsters?"

Seeing the disciples nodding silently, Master Dusha continued, "Forty-eight years ago, the last time the demon fire burned the city, my brother the abbot and I experienced it firsthand. That battle lasted for two whole years, and countless people and demons were killed and wounded. Our master's generation of masters fought desperately and finally saved Dragon City. In the blink of an eye, the disaster is about to come again."

"Amitabha." Yuan Xin nodded slowly, "This time the demons have returned, and it will be another bloody storm."

Master Dusha said: "That is indispensable!"

He looked back at the many monks behind him and said, "But you don't have to worry too much. This time we came to Nanman to unite with our former sworn enemy Jiuli. If the alliance is successful, the Ten Thousand Demons may not get the upper hand!"

Yuan Xin's face was excited, "Great! Then we, the leader of the Jinchan Temple, will be able to sit firmly on the throne of the world's number one mysterious sect!"

Dusha Dasha said: "You, at such a young age, are burdened by false reputation!"

Yuan Xin disagreed and said excitedly: "Master, I am not doing this for my own fame!"

Master Dusha was also a little surprised. He had watched this young disciple grow up and knew his character very well. He was indeed not a person who fought for fame and fortune. "Okay, tell me."

Yuan Xin nodded, "Although our Jinchan Temple's martial arts are the best in the world, the world has been peaceful for the past few decades. Whether it's the Xuanshui Sect or the Tianci Sect, they can fight for the top spot. Monks really shouldn't be burdened by worldly fame."

"But the situation is different now. The situation has changed suddenly. Whether it is the Ten Thousand Demons or the Thousand Years Alliance, they have a huge impact on Zhongzhou. The righteous forces must form an alliance to fight together. If we don't take the lead at this time, what if someone with ulterior motives or incompetent people seize the position of leader? Wouldn't that put hundreds of millions of innocent people in danger?"

Master Dusha had a hot temper and devoted himself to practicing martial arts and exorcising demons. He really hadn't thought about these things. When he heard Yuanxin mention it, he came to his senses and said, "You are a teachable boy. Although you are my disciple, you are thoughtful and considerate. This is more like Brother Abbot."

Yuan Xin smiled awkwardly and touched his little bald head, "Master, I'm sorry, I..."

Master Dusha waved his hand and said, "Silly boy, what nonsense are you talking about? I don't blame you. Although you are still young, you are mature, calm and capable. Your future achievements will definitely surpass mine. We are all old now. The future of Jinchan Temple will depend on you and nephew Yuanjing."

Yuan Jing is the oldest of the "Three Saints of Golden Zen". After losing to Xuanyuan Changqing in the final of Longcheng Competition, he went down the mountain to look for his true self and has not been in the temple since then.

Yuan Xin was extremely terrified and said, "I dare not do that. My cultivation is still very shallow."

"Haha!" Master Dusha laughed, "What are you afraid of? We don't ask you to be on your own right now. Don't we still have a bunch of old bones to support you?"

Yuan Xin was even more embarrassed and changed the subject: "By the way, Master, where is Senior Brother Yuan Jing? I haven't seen him for a long time."

Master Dusha sighed, "Yuan Jing is a very talented kid with a great Buddhist nature, but he is too thoughtful and likes to dwell on trivial matters. Ever since he lost to Xuanyuan Changqing, he has locked himself in the Sutra Library. I went to the abbot a few times, wanting to go in and scold this fool, but he disagreed. He said that Yuan Jing's obstacles can only be overcome by himself, and external forces are not good."

Yuan Xin asked worriedly, "Has Senior Brother broken through the barrier?"

Master Dusha shook his head. "In fact, I haven't seen him since he went into seclusion. I just heard from Brother Abbot that Yuan Jing finally figured it out and went down the mountain to gain experience. But he has been gone for a long time, and I don't know where he is now."

Yuan Xin was silent for a while, "Master, don't worry. The abbot is a master of creation. He must be aware of Brother Yuan Jing's situation. He will be fine."

Master Dusha nodded and said, "That makes sense. Yuan Jing has his own ideas. We should worry more about ourselves!"

As he spoke, he pointed in the direction of Thousand Demon Ridge in the south.

Yuan Xin also became more serious. "Although I want to help the master to eliminate demons and dominate Zhongzhou, this war will cause great suffering and grief to the people."

"Yes!" Master Dusha said, "Since humans came into being, the fighting in this world seems to have never stopped."

Yuan Xin frowned and said, "Really... are we really the ones who brought killing to the world?"

Master Dusha said, "Humans are not the first creatures to appear in the world. If we only talk about killing, the law of the jungle has existed since ancient times, and it is indeed not our invention. But other creatures are forced to fight to the death just to fill their stomachs. But humans are definitely not just hungry, right?"
