Prajna Temple, the forbidden area in the back mountain.
Prajna Temple is a sacred place for Buddhism, and the reason why Houshan became a "forbidden area" was mainly because of the planting of an ancient bodhi tree.
This ancient Bodhi tree was planted by the founder of the sect, and it contains boundless Buddhist power. Even the most evil people will feel repentant when they come to the ancient Bodhi tree.
At the birthday banquet of the Demon Wolf King, the blood Bodhi seeds presented by the ancestor of the Bodhisattva people also came from the ancient Bodhi tree.
Over the years, Prajna Temple has been in a very embarrassing position among the ruins.
Although Prajna Temple is one of the nine ancient sects, it has a history of ten thousand years and has extraordinary heritage.
But Ruins is the first of Tianshu's ten forbidden areas, and killing is the eternal theme.
The teachings of Prajna Temple are contrary to the ruins, and believers cannot be educated on a large scale in the ruins, nor can they enjoy the power of incense.
Over time, Prajna Temple gradually declined, unable to recruit potential and qualified talents, and there were fewer and fewer disciples.
Not long ago, there was an elder who abandoned Buddhism and practiced Taoism, preferring to lose the magical power of a great Buddhist arhat and fall into the devil's path.
However, because of the existence of this ancient Bodhi tree, those monsters and demons never dared to attack Prajna Temple.
It is no exaggeration to say that as long as this ancient Bodhi tree survives, Prajna Temple will not fall.
But today, the ancient Bodhi tree, which was originally lush and prosperous, suddenly withered most of it, countless leaves and branches fell off, and the golden light on the surface became extremely dim, and may be extinguished at any time.
This sudden change alarmed the entire temple's top brass.
The abbot and many elders gathered around the ancient Bodhi tree, frowning and looking sad.
"Why……"
The abbot sighed deeply and said: "This ancient Bodhi tree is the foundation of our Prajna Temple. It was planted by the founder of the sect and was stained with the blood of the holy monks. It can be said to carry the spirit of our Prajna Temple and even the entire Buddhist sect."
Luck! Today, most of it has withered and our luck has been greatly damaged. Is it because God wants to destroy our Buddhist sect?"
After hearing these words, many elders present lowered their heads, not knowing what to say.
Suddenly, the abbot looked at a young monk at the back of the crowd.
The young monk was not very handsome, but he carried an indescribable and mysterious aura about him, like the bright moon in the sky, the breeze in the mountains, or the gentle waves on the bottom of the sea.
"Kasyapa, you are the reincarnation of a spiritual boy, and you are born with deep blessings. Before you leave the mountain, you must find out what happened in the outside world to cause the ancient Bodhi tree to wither like this! The hope of Buddhism falls on your shoulders!"
the abbot said.
Hearing this, the young monk nodded but did not answer.
Kassapa Buddha, as the most outstanding disciple of this generation of Prajna Temple, was the reincarnation of a certain Buddhist great master. When he was born, the Buddha's light shone everywhere. He spoke the words of Buddha when he was born from his mother's womb, and he condensed the Nascent Soul as soon as he was born.
He practices silent meditation, so he cannot speak.
After receiving the task assigned by the abbot, Kasyapa turned around and walked towards the outside of the temple.
Whenever his feet were about to touch the ground, golden lotuses appeared on the ground, supporting his body and preventing it from being stained by any mundane dust.
…
At the same time, Zhenwu Dao Sect.
Thousands of peaks compete with each other, thousands of valleys contend with streams, waterfalls fly sideways, and vines hang upside down.
It is not easy to find such a beautiful paradise in a deserted ruin that is surrounded by dangers and dangers.
The mountain gate of the Zhenwu Dao Sect dominates all the mountains within a thousand miles, and has built hundreds of palaces, which are magnificent and magnificent.
But the core disciples of the Zhenwu Dao Sect all know that what determines the lifeline of the sect is not the Zhenwu Hall where the sect leader is located, but a small Taoist temple dozens of miles away from the mountain gate.
Although the Taoist temple is small, the threshold is frighteningly high. Even the elders in the temple need to ask for permission in advance before entering.
At this moment, there was a gaunt old man standing in the Taoist temple, with white hair and a jade lotus crown. His face was covered with dense wrinkles, full of the vicissitudes of time. He had lived for who knows how many years.
He is the Supreme Elder of the Zhenwu Dao Sect, and his real name is Guang Lingzi.
This is a very unfamiliar name to the younger generation of Desolate Prodigy.
But if there is a strong man over a thousand years old in any sect, he will definitely be shocked when he hears this name.
About two thousand years ago, Guang Lingzi was born and became the most outstanding genius of the Zhenwu Dao Sect. There are rumors that he was the reincarnation of the legendary Chunyang Dao Ancestor!
The reincarnation of strong men is not uncommon in the world of immortality.
After a monk reaches a certain level, even if his body decays, he can still ensure that his spirit remains, and can even pass it on to others in some special way. This is exactly the case for the "reincarnated soul boy" in Buddhism.
However, at the beginning, Guang Lingzi did not show any extraordinary talent. On the contrary, his qualifications were among the worst within the sect.
Ordinary disciples, when they reach the age of twenty, will at least advance to the golden elixir realm, and those who are faster will become monks at the Nascent Soul stage.
And Guang Lingzi is almost thirty years old, and he is still only in the foundation-building realm, and has not condensed the golden elixir at all. If he leaves the sect and goes to survive outside the ruins, he will not survive more than three days.
Even in the sect, he was the most unwelcome person. He was relegated to being a handyman, lighting fires and cooking. Over time, the Zhenwu Dao Sect even forgot that there was such a person.
However, when he was thirty years old, he suddenly "awakened"!
For other people, as their level of cultivation increases, it becomes slower and slower and more difficult!
Many warriors even spend their entire lives unable to make any further progress!
But when I got to Guang Lingzi, I did the opposite, accumulating more and more, getting faster and faster!
He first spent a month advancing from the foundation building stage to the golden elixir realm.
Another half month passed, and I advanced from the Golden Core to the Nascent Soul realm.
After another week, he was promoted from Nascent Soul to Transformation Soul.
After that, just one day later, his state was as if he was on a rocket, transforming into a god for one transformation, a second transformation for a god... and a ninth transformation for a god!
In the end, he directly passed through the catastrophe and became a true immortal.
Three flowers gather at the top, condensed like pillars, rising straight into the sky!
Visions arise spontaneously, colorful clouds fall from the sky, and golden lotuses emerge from the earth!
Refining energy and transforming it into spirit, refining energy and transforming it into spirit, and refining spirit into spirit!
That majestic scene shocked all the practitioners of the Zhenwu Dao Sect, and also alarmed the sect leader at the time.
The sect leader at that time directly accepted Guang Lingzi as a closed disciple. After that, Guang Lingzi showed many magical powers, which were never recorded even in the history of Zhenwu Dao Sect.
Many people believe that if the Zhenwu Dao Sect has such a supreme genius, it will definitely reach a higher level, and may even unify the entire ruins.
But beyond everyone's expectation, after that, Guang Lingzi stayed in the Zhenwu Dao Sect and never stepped out of the sect.
Some people say that he has truly understood the secret of life and death, and once he is born, he will be invincible in the world!
Others say that because God was jealous of Yingcai, he might have been punished by God and died!
In the beginning, there were still people who would think of this supreme genius from time to time!
But time flies by, and after an unknown number of years, those strong men who knew Guang Lingzi could not withstand the invasion of time, and became old and old, and even drove away to the west one after another.
As a result, in the entire ruins, there were only a handful of people who knew Guang Lingzi, and those people had almost forgotten Guang Lingzi.
But only the masters of the Zhenwu Dao Sect in the past dynasties know the truth of the matter.
In fact, Guang Lingzi has been practicing a supreme magical power——
"Nine Deaths and Longevity Sutra"!
This is the most mysterious and powerful technique in Zhenwu Dao Sect. It requires cultivators to go through countless hardships and survive nine death tribulations before they can master it.
Once you master it, if you stand in the way of gods, you will kill gods, and if you stand in the way of Buddha, you will kill Buddha. I will be the only one in heaven and on earth!
And now, Guang Lingzi has cultivated to the eighth death calamity. The internal energy he has cultivated for more than two thousand years is even more powerful and majestic, and he is only one step away from being invincible in the world.
…
At this moment, Guang Lingzi was standing in the Taoist temple, followed by a middle-aged Taoist priest, who was the current head of the Zhenwu Taoist Sect, Master Xuanfeng.
"Xuanfeng, just now I got a feeling that a peerless divine object has appeared in the outside world to forcibly take the world's luck! If we can get that divine object, our Zhenwu Dao Sect will definitely be able to dominate the ruins, and even expand our sphere of influence and make a comeback.
Counterattack the Yunhai Immortal Sect and fulfill the last wishes of our ancestors! And—"
Speaking of this, Guang Lingzi paused for a moment, with a sharp look on his face, and his words were like thunder: "According to my calculations, the owner of that peerless divine object is the same person who defeated my spiritual clone before.
!”
"What?!"
Hearing this, Master Xuanfeng was shocked.
Guang Lingzi has been practicing for more than two thousand years, and even if it is just a spiritual clone, its power cannot be resisted by ordinary true immortals!
Since the opponent can defeat the spiritual clone, there is no doubt about his strength.
After pondering for a moment, Master Xuanfeng's eyes flashed and he said: "Supreme Elder, in that case, I will personally go out and seize that peerless divine object, and at the same time capture the villain and hand it over to you to punish him personally!
"
"Xuanfeng, the opponent's strength cannot be underestimated. You should take this sword with you!" Guang Lingzi said and waved his hand.
"Qiang!"
Suddenly, a sword sound sounded, shaking the sky.
A divine sword shot out of the sky, and the sharp sword energy soared into the sky, shattering all the clouds within a hundred miles.
And on the blade, there are also seven-color rays of light. This light condenses into substance, just like the rays of light at dusk. The clock of creation is beautiful, and the yin and yang cut off the dusk.
When Guang Lingzi held the sword, wisps of the ancient coercion of the ancestors seemed to have traveled through the long river of history and spread, enough to sweep away all the evil darkness in the world.
Although he did not draw his sword, the fierce sword energy surged out like a stormy sea, making people feel how insignificant they were and how they could not dodge.
"True martial arts sword!"
Looking at this divine sword, Master Xuanfeng's eyes were full of hot light, and he was extremely excited.
This is the first of the seven great weapons of Zhenwu Dao Sect. It is extremely powerful and invincible. It has killed countless demon kings.
Compared with the sword seal remaining in Meng Shaoling's body, this true martial arts sword is at least a hundred times more powerful.
But over the years, the Zhenwu Sword has been controlled by Guang Lingzi, and the sword never leaves his body. Even Master Xuanfeng, the sect leader, usually has no chance to come into contact with it.
Master Xuanfeng never expected that Guang Lingzi would temporarily lend him this sword for this mission.
"The Supreme Elder, Xuanfeng will definitely live up to his mission and bring that peerless divine object back to the sect!" Master Xuanfeng said loudly.
"Yeah! Go ahead!" Guang Lingzi nodded with satisfaction.
…
Not only Prajna Temple and Zhenwu Dao Sect, but also several other ancient sects, as well as major forces such as the Monster Clan, all noticed the drastic change in luck.
The fate of their own force was abruptly cut off by 80%. How could they not be shocked or angry?
The entire ruins were shaken by it.
Many strong men who had been dormant for hundreds of years emerged one after another, following the source of changes in destiny and heading towards Baidi City.
