Fairy Tree

Seeing these four ancient seal characters, Xiao Lin was slightly startled. He did not expect that he would unexpectedly find the ruins of an ancient monk's cave in this barren mountain.

The reason why he judged the age of this cave was because these ancient seal characters were not only simple seal characters from a very long time ago, but were also very old. If you didn't look carefully, you would hardly be able to see these four characters.

Xiao Lin took Xiao Hei and walked towards the cave. The cave was very dry and there was no damp and cold air. After walking for about a hundred feet, his eyes suddenly opened up. It turned out to be a large stone chamber. Inside the stone chamber There are also some stone tables, chairs, and stone beds on display inside. There are two shelves carved out next to the rock wall.

Apart from that, there is nothing.

Xiao Lin was also a little disappointed when he saw this, and the trace of expectation he had originally disappeared in an instant. It seemed that this was just an abandoned cave of an ancient monk, or perhaps the relics of the ancient monks inside had been evacuated long ago.

Xiao Lin didn't care too much. After all, such things also require fate. Moreover, his purpose was not to seek secluded places to explore, but to find a secret place to understand the Buddhist mysteries on the golden bone relics. Of course, there is another purpose to improve the state of the Zen of Withered Heart and Nirvana, which is to improve the state of the Holy Spirit Burning Heaven Technique.

Now that his mana has been restored, after more than a hundred years of travel, both his realm and the mana in his body have become nearly mellow. Therefore, he plans to practice hard in seclusion here and take the opportunity to break through the bottleneck in the later stages of the Tribulation.

After a simple arrangement, Xiao Lin arranged several magic formations around the cave as usual. With his current level, the formations he had arranged would take at least several days to break through even if a Mahayana monk personally took action. .

After doing all this, Xiao Lin began a long and boring retreat in the cave.

Time flies by, and the mountains and forests outside are constantly changing with different scenery as the seasons change.

But in this inconspicuous small valley, except for a deep pool exuding cold air, it is empty and very desolate. Even some wild beasts in the mountains will not come to such a place, let alone have intelligence. of creatures.

Thousands of years have passed.

For ordinary mortals, a thousand years has passed by dozens of generations. Even the vicissitudes of life have experienced great changes in the course of thousands of years.

Many major events have also happened in the Lonely Sun Continent. Thousands of years ago, the Holy Ancestor Wu Lin came into being and fought with several top Buddhist masters from the White Buddha Temple. The White Buddha Temple was destroyed. Of course, the outside world did not know that the White Buddha Temple was destroyed. Therefore, the biggest reason for the destruction was actually Xiao Lin's doing.

Neither the White Buddha Temple nor the Buddha's holy land, the Great Bodhi Temple, ever publicized this matter, so Holy Ancestor Wu Lin naturally took the blame.

But Holy Ancestor Wu Lin didn't care about this. Nine hundred years ago he destroyed Fayu Temple, eight hundred years ago he destroyed Wei Tuo Temple, and six hundred years ago he even destroyed Tianlong Temple, which was ranked tenth among the hundred top temples.

Not only that, dozens of demonic sects were also destroyed by Wulin Saint Ancestor, and these dozens of sects were integrated to establish a brand new demonic sect - the True Demon Palace.

The appearance of the True Demon Palace made the entire Guyang Continent become strange. Even the giants of the Demon Sect, after fighting openly and secretly with the True Demon Palace in private, stopped their activities and began to keep a low profile.

In particular, the Supreme Saint Ancestor of Luoxue, who is known as the number one person in the Demonic Way, is not only the master of the Killing Demon Sect, but also has understood the Killing Rules, one of the ten rules, and has already condensed half of them tens of thousands of years ago. The demon body is only one step away from tearing apart the void and ascending to the true demon world.

But even this Luoxue Supreme Saint Ancestor seemed to have disappeared. Facing the Wulin Saint Ancestor's killing of the demonic monks, it was as if he had never seen it. This made many demonic monks even doubt that this Luoxue Could it be that the Holy Ancestor is not the opponent of the Holy Ancestor Wulin?

The eighty-one demon soul flags, after a thousand years, have been re-refined by the Holy Ancestor Wulin. They have been unified and turned into nine sides. Each side is an eighth-level holy weapon, which is equivalent to an eighth-level immortal. Treasure, and the nine sides are integrated into one, and the formation of ten thousand demons is arranged. It can be said that the immortals can kill the immortals and the Buddha can kill the Buddha.

Its power has gradually surpassed that of Luoxue, the first person in the demonic path.

As for the Buddhist sect, what surprised countless people in the Buddhist sect was that in the face of the mass killings of the Wulin Holy Ancestor, the Mahabodhi Temple never expressed anything. Even when the Tianlong Temple was destroyed six hundred years ago, the Mahabodhi Temple also Never showed up.

This made many people feel surprised and confused. Countless forces throughout the Lonely Sun Continent fell silent.

After the Wulin Saint Ancestor destroyed Tianlong Temple, he also stagnated and could not escape within the mountain gate of the True Demon Palace. The entire Guri Continent once again ushered in peace.

It’s just that monks with a slightly higher realm know that this is a storm that is coming, and the entire Guri Continent is likely to face a big reshuffle. Buddhism, Demonism, and Wulin Saint Ancestor seems to have become the one who transcends the two realms. the third force.

The Dabodhi Temple is located in the west of Guri Continent, entrenched in the Jinyang Mountains. The Jinyang Mountains are a huge mountain range that stretches for more than ten million miles. This is the core of the Jinyang Mountains, with mountains extending to all sides and spanning The area occupies two areas.

At the center of the Jinyang Mountains are hundreds of magnificent peaks seven or eight thousand feet high. However, these peaks are all covered by densely packed Buddhist temples. On each of these magnificent peaks is a branch of the Mahabodhi Temple. Such a branch , it is said that there are dozens of them, covering an area of ​​about tens of thousands of miles, and outside this core area of ​​tens of thousands of miles, there are densely packed Buddhist kingdoms, probably hundreds of them. These Buddhist kingdoms are all large The Merit Pool of Bodhi Temple.

Countless good men and women chant sutras and worship the Buddha every day, and their massive power of faith is continuously imported into the Mahabodhi Temple through the countless pagodas built in the country, supporting the top Buddhist and Taoist monks in the Mahabodhi Temple.

This power alone brings with it a great sense of oppression.

The Great Bodhi Temple is the core of Buddhism in Guri Continent, with the three major temples of Bodhi Upper Court, Middle Court and Lower Court as the core, respectively occupying the three main peaks of the Jinyang Mountains.

Within tens of thousands of miles, the sound of chanting scriptures resounded through the sky, and the golden light floating in countless Buddhist temples actually condensed into a thick layer of golden auspicious clouds in the nine heavens, layer upon layer, extending to the sky.

Among the three main peaks, in one of the temples, in a main hall, there is a huge lotus platform. On the lotus platform, sitting cross-legged, a skinny old monk with white eyebrows, his face covered with wrinkles, his eyes closed. Sitting upright, there was no breath coming out of his body, just like a dry tree trunk.

And below, on both sides, there are rows of lotus pedestals that are several circles smaller. On the lotus pedestals, there are also famous Buddhist monks sitting cross-legged. Some of them look very young, and some of them are middle-aged men. , some are old men in their fifties, some are handsome, and some are extremely ugly.

But in the entire hall, you could hear a needle drop, but there was no sound, and no one was chanting sutras or chanting Buddha's name.

Here, it seems that time has stood still, and I cannot feel the passage of time. I don’t know how much time has passed. The white-browed old monk sitting cross-legged on the huge lotus platform slowly opened his eyes. As his eyes opened, a trace of Huge energy radiated out of the gas, and at the same time, its eyes seemed to be able to see through everything in the world, twinkling with two golden vortexes.

"Amitabha."

The moment the white-browed old monk opened his eyes, everyone around him shouted the Buddha's name. The sound of the Buddha's call seemed not loud, but it penetrated the hall and echoed in the sky.

"See Lord Buddha."

The white-browed old monk nodded slowly, and then an old voice sounded from his mouth: "Qing Huan, has there been any unusual movement in the modron recently?"

The first young monk on his left, who looked to be in his twenties, stood up hurriedly after hearing the words. He bowed first and then said: "Back to Lord Buddha, since the beginning of the magic tomb thousands of years ago, there will be real demons at regular intervals. The emergence of evil spirits, especially in recent years, has become more and more frequent. It seems that the devil will make a comeback, and our Buddhist sect will also encounter disaster. "

Hearing this, the white-browed old monk seemed to nodded in agreement and said: "The true demon soul suppressed under the Demon Tomb is the remnant soul of an ancient true demon in the true demon world. Once it is born, as long as it swallows enough soul spirit , has restored its fighting strength during his lifetime, and our Buddha Sect is afraid that we will encounter a huge disaster. "

After hearing this, many people from the Buddhist sect below showed expressions of horror, and many even looked sad.

"Lord Buddha, is there any way to solve this problem?" Another strong monk in his forties asked with his hands clasped together.

Others also cast their eyes on the white-browed old monk. The white-browed old monk in front of them, whose name is Hui'an, is one of the highest-ranking Buddha masters in the Buddhist sect. He is in charge of the lower courtyard of the Mahabodhi Temple. The first seat of the House of Commons.

As for the Buddhist monks here, the ones with the worst realms are also those in the realm of the Four Fruitions. Less than half of them are the Great Sun Buddha and the Great Sun Bodhisattva, especially Qing Huan, who is the direct disciple of the Lord Buddha and is also the lower courtyard of the Mahabodhi Temple. , the most promising candidate to succeed Hui'an and become the new Lord Buddha in ten thousand years. His realm has reached the realm of the Great Sun Buddha ten thousand years ago, and he has also understood the rule of power, one of the ten rules. , and even cultivated the golden body of the Buddha's dharma to a state of great perfection, the six-arm dharma, and the rules of coordination. Even Lord Hui'an Buddha is only slightly better than him. He is also the protector of the lower courtyard of the Mahabodhi Temple. First seat.

Lord Hui'an Buddha glanced at the expectant eyes around him, shook his head slowly, sighed and said: "Demon tribulation is an unavoidable catastrophe in the spiritual world. Among the so-called three catastrophes of heaven, earth and man, human tribulation lasts for countless years. This calamity happened in the Holy Moon Continent before, causing the human race on the Holy Moon Continent to be almost extinct. Even after many years, it still has not returned to its peak state. The secret of heaven is unpredictable, and this Lord Buddha did not expect that. The devil will actually come to the Lonely Sun Continent, and he must be determined to capture his remaining devil soul."

After a pause, he continued: "Fayu Temple was destroyed nine hundred years ago, Wei Tuo Temple was destroyed eight hundred years ago, and even Tianlong Temple, which ranked tenth among the top one hundred monasteries of our Buddhist sect, was destroyed six hundred years ago."

"Lord Buddha, are we just going to let this demon grow stronger? Why don't we take the initiative to attack? With the current strength of our Buddha Sect, if we come out in force, even if the real demons from the real demon world come to the spiritual world, they will end in hatred. Why be afraid of a mere remaining true demon soul?"

Upon hearing this, Lord Hui'an Buddha waved his hands and said, "How can things be so simple? The Holy Ancestor of Luoxue has already warned us at the Great Bodhi Temple that as long as we attack the True Demon Palace, she will join hands to burn the witches and kill the demons." The Holy Ancestor Ye Liangda gathers all the power of the devil to fight against us. "

As soon as these words came out, there were bursts of exclamations from the surroundings, and all the Buddhist disciples showed shocked expressions.

They are very aware of the power of Lord Hui'an Buddha's words. Luo Xue, Fen Wu and Jiang Ye are the three giant demons in the devil's path today. Among them, Luo Xue is the leader and controls almost 90% of the resources and strength of the devil's path. , these three demons are rumored to have always been at odds with each other. They even fought and had a scuffle tens of thousands of years ago. However, it was these three demons that created a delicate balance among the demonic forces. , because once any one of the three most holy ancestors suppresses the other, the third one will take action. Therefore, the demonic forces form a tripartite force, and no one can do anything about the other.

At the same time, some of the top monks of the Buddhist sect also know that among the three demons, the Holy Ancestor of Luoxue is the strongest. When facing any one of Fen Wu and Jiang Ye alone, he can beat the opponent, and even defeat him and win. Very likely.

But if you face two people at the same time, you will only lose.

Of course, there are times when the three major demons unite, that is, once the Buddha sect invades the demonic path in a large scale, the three most holy ancestors will secretly communicate with each other and join forces to deal with the Buddha sect. Therefore, in the past hundreds of thousands of years, the Buddha and the demonic path have always maintained A delicate balance of peace.

But the appearance of Holy Ancestor Wulin broke all this. Holy Ancestor Wulin sacrificed and refined the demon soul flag. After a thousand years of battle, the eighty-one demon soul flags were forcibly refined by him into nine-pole and eight-pole demon flags. If he goes one step further and refines these nine eighth-level holy weapons into one ninth-level holy weapon, coupled with the terrifying strength of the Holy Ancestor Wu Lin, the Great Bodhi Temple will encounter an unprecedented catastrophe.

Especially after the Holy Ancestor Wu Lin was born, the Great Bodhi Temple and the suppressed demon tomb at the bottom of the mountain began to move. Every few years, true demonic energy would burst out, and roaring sounds would be heard from the bottom of the mountain. , every time at this time, many eminent monks of the Mahabodhi Temple will use Buddhist Dharma to bless the demon-suppressing and protective array to prevent the remnant souls of the demons suppressed in the demon tomb from re-emerging.

Combining the performance of the three most holy ancestors, Luo Xue, Fen Wu and Jiang Ye, Lord Hui'an Buddha has guessed that the Wulin Saint Ancestor who emerged from nowhere is likely to be related to the real demon world demon whose demon soul was split in ancient times. .

It was precisely because of the warnings of the three most holy ancestors that the Buddha Sect never took action. Even if the three upper houses were destroyed, they remained still. ()
