Chapter 38: Hidden Buddhist Temple, Sky-Repairing Fragments



The identity of number eight is really hard to guess.

The reason is very simple: the other party may not have learned it from Master Ziwei, it may have been a guess.

The first four people who completed the road to heaven happened to be from the four major families of Xu, Luo, Ge and Zhao. Most people would think that Chang Geng accepted disciples according to their ranking.

But why only the top four are accepted, and not the top five or six?

It was not surprising to guess that the headmaster of Ziwei had intervened and given instructions. But Wei Dongliu noticed that No. 8's tone was quite firm, and it did not seem like an unfounded guess.

He hoped that No. 8 could say something about Kunlun so that he could further narrow down the possibility of the other party's identity, but No. 8 stopped here at the right time and then shut up.

So as number nine, Wei Dongliu could only start talking about the work he had done.

It would have been fine if he hadn't spoken, but once he opened his mouth and said a few words, the work results of the others immediately paled in comparison.

You know, the others are either "still lying in wait" or "running away in panic", there is also No. 3 who is "taking personal revenge", and No. 4 and No. 5 who are "the first to sacrifice their lives"... Wei Dongliu thought that if he were Taoist Na Luo, he would have been pissed off to death after seeing all these trash in the sect.

In comparison, all the work done by Wei Dongliu was completed beautifully and in excess, like a stream of clear water in a mudslide. How could it not make people reflect?

After he finished speaking briefly, he heard Taoist Luo sneer and say:

"Number Nine was the last to join the sect. He was already a Jindan cultivator at that time. Several fellow disciples privately reminded me that Number Nine's loyalty and reliability could not be guaranteed."

"Why now it seems that the 'loyal monks' who grew up within the sect are not as good as the 'outsider monks' you mentioned? Who can tell me why this is?"

Everyone was silent.

Everyone knew that the leader used Number Nine to warn them, but the achievements made by Number Nine were indeed real.

If becoming the leader of the Mortal Dao Sect was a matter of arrangement by the sect, then becoming the leader of the Six Paths was truly a difficult task that was difficult for ordinary people to accomplish.

The Six Paths Sect is not stupid. If there are not enough benefits and enemies, who would be willing to form an alliance with you and obey your orders?

Look at Wei Dongliu again, he even dared to challenge a behemoth like Kunlun, yet he was able to bite off a piece of flesh from the opponent and escape unscathed... It's not surprising that such a heroic lord can integrate the six paths together?

Therefore, everyone shut up and obediently accepted the sect leader's ridicule and scolding.

After Master Luo finished his lecture, he announced the adjournment of the meeting.

Wei Dongliu was about to leave with everyone when he was stopped by Taoist Luo again.

"Number nine." Taoist Luo was silent for a moment, then said, "There is a mission that is not within your responsibility, and I may need your help."

Wei Dongliu: ...

If it’s not my job, please don’t assign it to me and ask me to work overtime, okay?

Taoist Master Luo obviously did not have this awareness, he just waved his hand and said:

"Number Two, come here!"

Number Two came forward. Wei Dongliu was startled. This guy hadn't left yet? Why didn't I notice his presence?

"Number Two has cultivated a magical power," Taoist Priest Luo introduced, "which allows people to not notice his presence."

"However, he has not yet fully cultivated this magical power, and currently cannot control it in his mind. As a result, although he successfully infiltrated the sect, he was unable to obtain much intelligence."

"Among the sect today, you are the most outstanding in terms of skill, courage, and ability. After much thought, I think you are the only one who can help him."

Wei Dongliu pondered for a while and thought that this was really hard to refuse.

I have just completed a task successfully and gained the initial trust of Master Luo. If I reject him here now, he will definitely be angry.

Then he began to speak:

"Do you need me to change my appearance?"

"Of course." Taoist Luo waved his hand and said, "Jinchan Temple is a hidden temple. Only Buddhists can enter."

"I will teach you a magic trick. You must disguise yourself as a relic monk from the Pudu Temple and ask No. 2 to guide you. You will then live and practice in the Jinchan Temple."

"I see." Wei Dongliu thought for a moment and asked, "What is the mission objective?"

"Try to find out as much as possible about the situation at the Jinchan Temple." Taoist Priest Luo replied, "Sort out the intelligence information. The more detailed the better."

"Got it." Wei Dongliu took the illusion jade slip handed over by Taoist Luo.

"Go to the portal in the back hall," Daoist Master Luo instructed, "The portal you came from is under maintenance and cannot be used for the time being."

Maintenance again? Wei Dongliu was surprised.

It was maintained after the last time I came, and it was maintained again this time. Are all your teleportation arrays disposable? To go to this extent to keep it secret is really a bit exaggerated.

He followed No. 2 to the back hall, stepped into another teleportation formation, and then disappeared.

Before they knew it, the two of them had arrived at a mountain somewhere.

I could see towering mountain peaks, so strange and steep that I had no idea how high they were. I could only see the endless sea of ​​clouds below.

There are also countless dead pines hanging upside down, with clear springs flowing among them, and hawks and orioles flying across the sky, their chirping sounds endless in the ears.

On the top of the mountain, you can see a Buddhist temple with an extremely simple and ancient shape, with gray clay walls and brass eaves, which is very different from the popular Buddhist temple style in modern times.

"Brother, that...that is the Golden Cicada Temple."

Wei Dongliu was startled. Who is next to me?

Then he saw a humble little monk, with his hands clasped in front of his chest, stammering:

"Brother, you are a wandering monk from Pudu Temple... Pudu Temple who came here to practice, right? I can introduce you to him, but um, um... Brother, you'd better change your appearance. Amitabha, Amitabha."

Wei Dongliu immediately understood that this person was the second hidden man of Hell.

He walked down the mountain steps, out of the sight of the little monk, and took out the illusion jade slip given to him by Taoist Luo.

This illusion was too crude and far inferior to Ajing's mirage. So Wei Dongliu asked Ajing to perform an illusion disguise on him, turning him into a tall, thin, gentle-looking young monk.

When I turned back again, I saw that the little monk was still standing there, chanting the Buddha's name...but he was even stuttering.

"Brother, you are finally back." He kept saying with his head down, "Then let me, I will take you back to the temple."

The two of them walked up the mountain steps, one in front and one behind.

Wei Dongliu looked into the distance and saw that there was no sun in the sky, but it was as bright as day.

The sea of ​​clouds in the distance is also endless, and no second mountain can be seen within the field of vision.

"A Jing." He called quietly in his heart, "Where on earth is this place?"

"It seems to be a cave." Kunlun Mirror replied, "The construction of the cave has obvious Western religious characteristics."

Wei Dongliu nodded slightly, and then heard Kunlun Mirror suddenly say in surprise:

"Guan Shui! I sense the aura of the Heaven-Repairing Stone!"
