The Rise of The Mythical Dragon

The Luoyang Water and Land Conference has ended, but there are only two things that people are talking about.

One was that Master Xuanzang had a great victory in debating scriptures with the Western disciple Lian Sheng all day and night, and the other was that Xuanzang’s lectures on scriptures led to the incident of Venerable Cihang, the Immortal of the Dragon Temple.

The first one was fine, but the second one caused a sensation all over the world, even the emperor of Chang'an was deeply shocked.

After thinking about it for a long time in the palace, Emperor Taizong decided to visit the Chang'an Dragon Temple.

In today's Chang'an City, the Dragon Temple has not been expanded for many years, but it is still the most important existence in Chang'an City.

A large number of imperial troops suddenly walked on the street in front of the Dragon Temple. A chariot slowly stopped at the door, and Emperor Taizong Li Shimin was seen stepping down from the chariot.

Li Shimin raised his head and glanced at the plaque of the Dragon Temple before slowly walking in.

Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Venerable Master Fatian has never left Chang'an. Now that he is seventeen years old, his health is not as good as before.

Since Ao Shenzi's reincarnation, although his cultivation is still there, his lifespan is the same as that of a mortal. This is what he himself requested back then.

Only after experiencing birth, old age, illness and death can he achieve his future status.

Today, Ao Shen, also known as Master Fa Tian, ​​meditates in a quiet room all day long and never sees anyone, except when Emperor Taizong Li Shimin comes.

After being taken to a quiet room by a disciple of the Dragon Temple, Li Shimin stood quietly outside waiting, while the disciple came forward and knocked on the door.

"Honored Master, the Holy One is here."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a slight cough coming from the quiet room, and then a voice came out.

"come in."

The man bowed slightly, then stepped aside and made an inviting gesture towards Li Shimin.

Li Shimin nodded slightly and then stepped into the quiet room.

Looking at Master Fa Tian who was as skinny as a stick on the futon, an inexplicable look flashed in Li Shimin's eyes. Then he made a dragon temple sign with his hands, bowed slightly and said, "I have seen Master Fa Tian."

Fatian slowly opened his eyes, and those bright and scary eyes instantly shocked Li Shimin, as if he had no secrets at all.

With the corner of his mouth raised slightly, Fatian said, "The Holy One has not been here for a while. Why are you here today because of Luoyang's affairs?"

Fa Tian naturally knew what happened in Luoyang. Li Shimin was not surprised, so he just nodded now.

Only Fatian chuckled, shook his head and looked at Li Shimin: "The Holy One is confused."

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, and then said, "What do you mean, Master?"

"I don't have much time left, and my return to heaven is approaching. Are you worried that after I leave, there will be no one to guard the Chang'an Dragon Temple?"

Naturally, he knows very well how Fa Tian's body is, but knowing it is one thing, and speaking it out is another thing.

Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the Dragon Temple has contributed a lot, but in today's world, the Immortal Family has been hidden from the world, and the only support for myself and the Tang Dynasty is the person in front of me.

Fatian himself did not shy away from mentioning that his return to heaven was approaching, and Li Shimin was no longer hiding his thoughts at this time.

Li Shimin bowed and said, "Honored Master, the Tang Dynasty still needs the Dragon Temple to suppress luck. If you... the Dragon Temple in Chang'an must be guarded by someone."

Hearing this, Fatian raised his lips slightly, shook his head slightly, and then said: "Your Majesty, the Xuanzang you like is good, but Xuanzang has his own way to go, and you can't keep him at this time. "

Li Shimin's mouth felt bitter, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

If he had some confidence before, but now he no longer has it. The Immortal Family has issued a decree. At this time, he feels that the only one who can stop Xuanzang from traveling westward is Fa Tian in front of him.

"Although I have no choice, my respected master can."

"I will not stop Xuan Zang from traveling westward."

"Why?" Li Shimin was a little surprised. In his opinion, as Fatian's beloved disciple, Fatian should not agree to Xuanzang's uncertain future.

It's just that Li Shimin thought wrong about Fatian after all. Fatian shook his head slightly and said: "Your Majesty is only worried about whether Xuanzang can return to the capital during this trip. If he can't, you don't plan to let him go. It's just that this scripture is meant to What I brought back is Xuanzang’s destiny.”

Hearing that Xuanzang would come back after his journey to the west, Li Shimin's expression suddenly froze, and a light of hope gradually appeared in his eyes.

"Will Xuanzang return to the capital?"

"The scriptures are given by heaven. After Xuanzang brings back the scriptures, he will suppress my fortune in Nanzhan Continent for ten thousand years."

Li Shimin's expression suddenly became excited, his fingers trembled slightly, and his heart was even more excited.

"What the respected master said is absolutely true. That is my great blessing for the great Tang Dynasty!"

Fa Tian smiled slightly, but did not say much. Not to mention whether the Tang Dynasty could live for ten thousand years, this preaching of scriptures was done by the Dragon Emperor to suppress the fate of Nanzhan Buzhou for ten thousand years.

With this scripture in the world, Nanzhan Buzhou will always be Nanzhan Buzhou. Even if there is chaos, there is no possibility of outsiders invading.

This is the blessing of all beings in Nanzhan Province and has nothing to do with the Tang Dynasty. If it does, it is just the luck of the Tang Dynasty for hundreds of years.

At this time, Li Shimin had already gotten the answer he wanted. Although it seemed like it would take a long time to wait, he still knew it as he was familiar with the Dragon Temple.

Once Xuanzang successfully travels westward and returns to the capital, Xuanzang's luck will be the best in the Dragon Temple in the world, unmatched by anyone.

Isn't it a blessing for the Tang Dynasty that such an expert can sit in the Chang'an Dragon Temple in the future?

Li Shimin, who was excited in his heart, had a smile on his face, and then said: "In this case, I am relieved. After Master Xuanzang arrives in Beijing, I will personally host a banquet in honor of him, hand him the customs clearance documents, and escort the Master westward. "

Hearing this, Fatian shook his head and chuckled: "Your Highness, don't send anyone. If the opportunity is right, someone will escort Xuanzang to the west. The journey is long. This is a test for Xuanzang by the saint."

Li Shimin's heart trembled, and he instantly understood the meaning of these words. After that, he stopped insisting and just nodded without saying anything more.

After chatting for a few words, Li Shimin slowly exited the quiet room and left, but Fatian, who had returned to calm, did not enter meditation immediately.

The light in his eyes flickered. At this time, Fatian's gaze fell on a pair of calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall. A faint light appeared on the old body.

The spiritual power on his body was not obvious, but there was a strange aura surrounding him, and in an instant, countless white lights slowly emerged from Fatian's body.

Gathering and mixing, the white light kept changing its shape behind Fatian, and the previously weird aura gradually became clearer, and it was a mighty dragon.

I saw that Fatian slowly closed his eyes at this time, his expression did not change at all, but the white light gradually condensed into substance.

A pale white baby dragon slowly appeared behind Fa Tian. A pair of dragon eyes were tightly closed. The young dragon body exuded an extremely powerful dragon power.

The white dragon did not dissipate immediately, but just floated quietly behind Fatian, echoing Fatian's every breath and breath, as if he was sitting in meditation.
