Cold comes and summer comes, and the seasons flow.
Two years passed in the blink of an eye.
Shaolin Temple.
"The Starfire Cult Master has arrived!"
Accompanied by a Zen-like chant, Chi Yao led Zhao Heng into the gate of this ancient temple.
At the invitation of the Shaolin Abbot, major sects in the Southern Jin Dynasty are about to hold a Taoism conference in the Shaolin Temple, mainly for young disciples.
This can be considered a practice for decades.
Because although there are many martial arts sects in the Jin Dynasty, only the Shaolin family has the power to suppress them, so they naturally become the same as the leaders of the martial arts alliance.
Every exchange of disciples can be regarded as a gentle way for them to promote their status.
But this year is different.
Because there is a top sect in the Great Jin Dynasty, the Spark Sect of the Southern Wilderness. And the leader of the Spark Sect, Chi Yao, ranks second on the Heavenly Ranking, just beating the Shaolin abbot Kongwen Divine Monk. And his record completely crushes Kongwen.
, in the minds of most people, it is not clear who is stronger between the first and the second in the Heavenly Ranking, but the two of them together can probably kill the other eight people.
In this way, how the position of the leader of the Jin Dynasty sect should be changed becomes a bit subtle.
Therefore, as more and more sects arrived, the atmosphere in the Shaolin Temple became increasingly weird.
Chi Yao was too lazy to pay attention to this. The reason why he brought Zhao Heng to Shaolin was, firstly, to continue to help this disciple gather his reputation, and secondly, because this discussion of Taoism was where everything began.
"In the original work, Zhao Heng, Xiao Meng and others only met after Zhao Heng's team was destroyed after several reincarnation missions."
Chi Yao was guided by the Shaolin Zhike monk and was lost in thought as he walked, "But there are also guiding tasks in the Six Paths Space. If I remember correctly, Xiao Meng and the others did not seem to have a leader on their first mission. Now there is one
There is a ready-made senior person here, will the Lord of Six Paths of Reincarnation be able to use it?"
"Distinguished guests, the abbot and all distinguished guests are waiting in the hall, please come in."
Chi Yao stepped in.
In the Mahavira Hall, the golden Buddha statue has its hands in seals, its treasures are solemn, and it looks at the people in the hall with compassion.
Right below the Buddha statue stood an old monk with white eyebrows and a drooping face. He had a pale face, wore yellow monk robes, a red cassock, and held a nine-ring tin staff. His face was pale gold.
It was Kong Wen, Abbot of Shaolin.
Of course, Chi Yao knew that the person playing the role of Kong Wen at this time should be "Magician" Han Guang, the master of the Tianming Clan in the Nine Paths of Evil.
Turning his eyes, standing to Kong Wen's right was an old Taoist priest wearing a seven-star crown and Yin-Yang Taoist robes.
Chi Yao had seen this person, the head of the Xuantian Sect, Shou Jing. At that time, he and the Time Knife reached a deal behind Shou Jing's back in the Heavenly Emperor's Palace on Jade Emperor Mountain.
Although Xuantian Sect's generation does not have a Dharmakaya, Shoujing ranks second on the Earth Ranking, and its strength cannot be underestimated.
Standing next to him was a middle-aged Taoist priest wearing Xuanwu Taoist robes and holding a jade ruyi in his hand.
Although I don’t recognize him, judging from the Xuanwu pattern on the Taoist robe, I am undoubtedly the master of Zhenwu.
On the other side of Kong Wen is a young and handsome man in Tsing Yi. He looks ordinary, but if you look at him carefully, you will feel that the place he is in is empty, without me or anything.
“Have you started communicating with ‘himself’?”
Chi Yao's gaze rested on Su Wuming in the Xijiang Pavilion for a moment, immediately attracting the attention of this peerless swordsman. He opened his half-closed eyes, and gently stroked the ancient sword at his waist with his right hand, with a fighting spirit in his eyes.
Hidden.
"He actually has some martial arts attributes..."
Chi Yao nodded slightly to him, and then quickly looked at the other people.
Among the remaining people were the leader of the Dajiang Gang who looked and dressed like a white-haired fisherman, the master of the Huanhua Sword who looked like a poet, and the leader of the Qingchen Sect.
This time, all these masters who stand at the top of the Great Lakes came in person!
"It seems that you are all fun-loving people too!"
Chi Yao sneered in his heart, he naturally understood why these people came in person.
This young generation's right to host martial arts competitions may not seem like much, but it is precisely a status display similar to that of a martial arts leader.
Shaolin, which used to have Kong Wen, who was third on the Heavenly Ranking, was able to steadily suppress the other sects of the Jin Dynasty, and others had nothing to say if they were dissatisfied.
But things are different now. The leader of Xinghuo, Chi Yao, is the second in the Heavenly Ranking. His strength is stable and he is stronger than Kong Wen. He is also an unparalleled murderer who is famous for killing. Will he be dissatisfied with the situation of his sect being overpowered by Shaolin out of thin air?
What will he do if he is dissatisfied?
How will Shaolin respond?
These people are calm on the surface, but inside they are probably shouting "Fight! Fight!".
Especially the two from Xuantian Sect and Zhenwu Sect.
The dispute between Buddhism and Taoism is sometimes even more serious than the difference between good and evil. Both of their families belong to the three Taoist sects, but compared with the Chunyang sect established in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, their situation is far different.
The leader of the Chunyang Sect, Chonghe Taoist, was ranked high on the Heavenly Ranking. In addition, in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the sect's power had always suppressed the aristocratic families and the royal family. Those days were called free and easy.
It's not like them, who have been forced to have a bald donkey weigh on their heads for so many years.
In contrast, they would rather let the cruel Chi Yao take over. After all, the foundation of the Spark Sect is the Chi You Banner. It is the human race's military flag, and it doesn't look much more pleasing to the eye than some bald head?
Of course, that's what they were thinking, if Chi Yao really got into a fight with Kong Wen, they wouldn't get involved.
"Amitabha, since everyone is here, let's start."
Kong Wen proclaimed the Buddha's name, which kicked off the martial arts competition and discussion.
…
…
Chi Yao naturally didn't see much of the competition among the younger generation, even though the people who came this time were outstanding elites from various sects. But the oldest one among them turned out to be twenty-year-old Zhao Heng, and the others were older.
He is only seventeen or eighteen years old, and the younger one looks to be only fourteen or fifteen years old. His state is generally within the first, second, and third realms of enlightenment.
However, for a large family, the realm is not absolute. If you can understand the true meaning of one or two outdoor moves in advance, then it is not difficult to cross one or two small realms.
But even so, Zhao Heng, who had opened the four orifices, stood out from the crowd. No matter whether it was the young Taoist Qing Jing of the Xuantian Sect, Zhen Miao and Zhen Ben of Shaolin, or Zhang Yuanshan, one of the seven Zhenwu disciples, they were no match for him.
Chi Yao could see that many sects had some complaints about him bringing in such an "overage" disciple as Zhang Yuanshan.
However, after the two true disciples of Shaolin lost one after another, these resentful guys all put on expressions of watching the show, looking forward to Shaolin's response.

It's a pity that Monk Kongwen disappointed them today.
When dinner time came, everyone dispersed, and Chi Yao heard Su Wuming's message.
