Elsewhere

There are mountains soaring into the sky, the top of which is cloudy and foggy, and there is no one who hides some secrets.The foot of the mountain is full of greenery, and occasionally hearing one or two neighing of spirit beasts makes passers-by stop and listen.

This mountain is one of the two major secret realms recognized by the Tianyuan Realm, Prajna Mountain, and the Tibetan Buddhist Gate.

All the cultivators in the world have heard that there is the most precious treasure in Tianyuan Realm on the top of this mountain, which contains nine lotus ponds with supreme aura and nine spiritual lotuses in the pond.There is also a legend that if you can drink the water of Jiulianchi, you can be reborn and decontaminated.If you can get a Linglian, you can get a glimpse of the exquisite creation of the world, and create No. 1 for the world.

If you die unfortunately, if you can plunge into the nine lotus ponds in time, you can enter the cycle of three lives like ordinary people, and you won't end up like ordinary monks who fall halfway and disappear in smoke.

Originally, such a rare treasure would inevitably attract countless evil spirits to covet it.But this Nine Lotus Pond is not to mention that it is heavily protected by the Tibetan Buddhist Gate, and that it itself will resist the intrusion of evil and evil, and people with bad intentions cannot approach it at all.Even if the body is dead, if there is a whole body of sins that wants to get close, it will be wiped out in an instant, and there is no way to enter.Its power is the power to seize the heaven and earth in the Yuanyuan state, and it cannot be easily entered.

A man was obviously not afraid of the number one Buddhist sect in the Tianyuan Realm. He had disheveled hair, was wearing a plain green robe, and stepped on two-foot wooden clogs. He walked up to the top of the mountain slowly and quickly, as if walking on flat ground.

At the entrance of the mountain gate, the Buddha cultivator guarding the gate saw him and clasped his hands together in response.

"Benefactor, come to compete with the abbot again?"

The man smiled and nodded yes.

Sandalwood is everywhere in the Buddhist gate, and the floor made of golden silk bamboo is paved everywhere it passes, and it is brushed with high-quality tung oil. From a distance, the golden light shimmers along the way, very clean and beautiful.

Although the man walked all the way up the mountain, but his shoes were spotless, at this moment, he stepped on the bright floor quietly and contentedly.

The Buddhist gate in the Tianyuan Realm is not as dedicated to spiritual Buddha idols as in the secular world, but to focus on cultivating the mind, so the main hall inside the gate is empty and tidy, with only futons, wooden fish, and scripture podiums for disciples to practice.

It was not the time to do homework, the disciples were not in the hall, and the presiding officer was not teaching scriptures and debating the law.

Knowing that he came at the right time, the man smiled and said nothing, turned around and walked towards the forbidden place.

This forbidden land of Cangtian is without a doubt one of the most revered Tianyuan secret realms of this Zangtian Buddhist cultivator, the Nine Lotus Pond.

Buddhist practitioners all believe that this place is the way to communicate with the heaven and the earth, and it is indispensable to practice Zen with the heart.Therefore, regard this place as a holy place and swear that with all the strength of the whole family, it will be fully preserved.

The man and the abbot of Tibet are close friends, but he can enter without any hindrance.

There was nothing around the Nine Lotus Ponds, but now Bodhisattvas are planted all over according to the Buddhist preference. Nourished by the transpiration of the pool water, all of them are tall and straight with luxuriant branches and leaves.

Amidst the greenery, the man immediately saw a tall and thin figure in a white cassock, sitting cross-legged by the pool and burning fragrant tea.

"Master Mingzhen."

The abbot laughed when he heard the call from behind, and put an extra porcelain cup on the tea table in front of him.Another futon was created.

"You came just in time. I saw a vision in this lotus pond today."

The man sat cross-legged beside him, and Shun Mingzhen pointed to Lianchi.

I saw this lotus pond, the water in the pond is blue, with multicolored precious lights floating up, the spiritual energy is full and clear, occasionally the breeze blows, and the fragrance is overflowing, mixed with the fragrance of nine lotus flowers in the pond, it is wonderful...

But as for the nine lotus flowers mentioned, the man's eyes fell on the last lotus petal that was just about to bloom, and he let out a little surprise.

"This is the last flower that hasn't bloomed for a long time, but is it finally going to bloom?"

"That's right, I haven't seen it open a bud a few days ago, but when I saw it today, I can clearly see the white lotus petals inside." Ming Zhen said very happily. "This white lotus is only slightly open, and the overflowing spiritual energy is already so strong. I don't know what it will be like when it is fully bloomed. It is really a spiritual creature that combines the heaven and the earth. There is nothing more perfect than it in the world. Bar……"

The man's eyes stayed on the quietly revealed crystal petals for a long time, and the more he looked at them, the more he felt that they were all beautiful, and not one of them was dissatisfied with aura.

Then carefully identify the familiar lotus fragrance in the air, there is indeed a trace of outstanding, clear and elegant taste.

It is the last one, even the fragrance is different.

"Excellent indeed."

"Hey, but I'm afraid it will be very difficult to wait to see it fully bloom. It has been more than 1000 years since it was in bud." Mingzhen smiled and wiped the two white beards on his lips, hugging his arms out of thin air, Suddenly a lute appeared.

"The old man guessed that you must have gained some skills when you went up the mountain. I want to compete with the old monk!"

Only then did the man look away from staring at the lotus, turned his head and smiled at Ming Zhen, and also took out a guqin and placed it on his lap.

"The abbot must lose this time!"

The clang of the qin is like the sound of cranes, and the beeping of the pipa is like flying waves.The two of you come and go, which was originally a pure and elegant pleasure, but now it has turned into a contest of non-compromise.

However, the two have known each other for a long time, so they naturally enjoyed it.

A bosom friend is hard to find, and the road to cultivation is long and boring.How happy it is to get a bosom friend and play a song heartily!

After the song was played, the two looked at each other and laughed out loud.

"Although your new song is mysterious, it's a little impatient, and it's not like your old temperament." Ming Zhen narrowed his eyes and said with emotion.

"I knew I couldn't hide it from Master." The man shook his head helplessly. "My blood relatives in the world begged me to come down to take care of me, and I feel a little depressed."

"It's not impossible to establish a sect." Mingzhen knew that the man had a younger brother in the secular world, who was not talented and hadn't broken through yet, so he could only stay in the secular world.

"Hey, if they can really pass on my mantle, why should I regret it? I'm just a pity that they only want to pay attention to my skill of refining weapons and divination. Strange skills and obscenities are not the real way to cultivate immortals." The man sighed. "Although the technique of refining the weapon array is exquisite, it is an external thing after all, and it is not beneficial to the cultivation of the state of mind. The technique of divination is unpredictable, and it is impossible to guarantee the tricks of fate. Daily activities are also timid, and it will only increase thoughts and troubles for oneself .”

"Let me imagine, being on the same level as the sky, only being in one place with all things in this world is the great supernatural power that can truly transform into the world and absorb the aura of the universe for oneself." The man finished speaking and looked at Mingzhen I am ashamed. "Of course, this is my own experience. Maybe it's wrong at all..."

Mingzhen squinted his eyes and listened to the man's words, but did not laugh at him, but nodded in agreement.

"This old man thinks it's right. The Buddhist saying, impermanence and no self, is similar to this perception. Maybe you can really become the first cultivator in the world to achieve Taoism and immortality."

"Master was joking." The man lowered his head and caressed the strings on his lap. "If you have Haole's long-term companion, as far as I am concerned, it is no different from becoming a fairy."

Mingzhen stroked his beard, smiled without saying a word.

"Master, there are four strange monks outside the mountain gate asking to see you."

At this moment, a disciple suddenly came and shouted Mingzhen.

"Just say I don't see you, send them away." Ming Zhen replied.

"The disciple said, but those people are very difficult!" The disciple added in a low voice after he finished speaking. "The cultivation base is extremely high."

"It seems that I won't be free today, please wait here for a while." Ming Zhen apologized and got up.

"Do you want me to help?" the man asked with concern.

"How dare you bother the visitor, sit here and drink a few cups of the spirit tea that the disciple picked recently at Prajna Mountain, the taste is different from other places." Mingzhen waved his hand, and went out with the disciple who came to call him.

The man thought it was an ordinary trouble, so Mingzhen came as soon as he went, so he took some tea from the table and poured it for himself.

This Prajna Mountain is full of spiritual energy, and the tea grown is indeed also rich in spiritual energy, which is the most delicious for ordinary monks.But this man was not good at this way, seeing that Mingzhen had gone far away, he secretly smiled and took out a flagon from his bosom.

"It is a great pity in life that a monk cannot drink alcohol, otherwise I would have escaped into Buddhism a long time ago. How could I have so many troubles..."

After taking a sip, the man got up and walked to the lotus pond, carefully looking at the ninth white lotus that was just about to bloom.

Walking in and observing, the unique fragrance of this white lotus is even more lingering around the body, and the fragrance is hard to dissipate.

"Sure enough, it's a natural spiritual creature, and the heavens are especially biased towards you." The man shook his head and took another sip. "It's a pity that you don't have spiritual wisdom, otherwise, you would have been an earth-shaking character after being nourished in the Nine Lotus Pond for so long..."

After smacking his lips a few times, the man suddenly felt that amidst the aroma of white lotus, the spirit wine that had been brewed in the jug for a hundred years had become dull and tasteless.

"Oh, it's really disgusting. Compared with you, everything pales in comparison, and it immediately falls into the cliché..." The man shook the flagon and sat down on the edge of the pool.

"It's a pity that I, a layman, can touch you."

After finishing speaking, the man stretched out his hand towards the pond, but he was not repelled by the Nine Lotus Pond.

At this time, there seemed to be a gust of wind, and the unopened white lotus that the man wanted to touch swayed and fell inside where the man could not touch.

This time the man stretched his arm and couldn't reach it, so he could only withdraw his hand embarrassingly.

"God is not beautiful."

Just when the man picked up the jug beside him and was about to get up and go back to the office to wait for Mingzhen, the ground suddenly shook violently, his center of gravity was unstable, and he fell into the pool.

At this time, the sky fissioned, and red clouds suddenly rolled out of the sky, and a huge shadow fell to the ground with a bloody wind.

Nine lotus ponds are very repulsive to this filthy thing, and suddenly the glory wins.

The shadow also seemed to feel very painful, and retreated several steps with a strange cry.

But the man didn't give up.And it seems that there is some reason that must be done to coerce him, forcing him to move forward.

Seeing that the figure surrounded by red clouds changed into a human figure, he took out a branch as thick as a dragon's pestle in his hand, rushed to the edge of the pool with all his strength, and with a ruthless swing, knocked down a blooming lotus. Then he grabbed it out of thin air and flew away.

A few movements were done in one go, and within a few seconds, the terrifying figure disappeared without a trace.

Mingzhen heard the noise and hurriedly led his disciples to arrive, only to see a familiar figure emerge from the pool, lying on the bank and said in surprise.

"I heard a loud noise just now, and then it seemed that something pressed me to the bottom of the pool. What happened?"

"A holy lotus was snatched away by the devil." Ming Zhen couldn't hide his shock when he saw that the nine lotus pond was missing.

This devil has great supernatural powers!No matter what method this person thought of, he was still not purified when he was able to get so close to Nine Lotus Pond, and he still had the strength to escape.If it's me and Master Ji here, I can't stop him!
