Because Kong Ju was wondering whether the disaster in Kuru Temple was related to the monk named Jiyuan in the illusion.

Cong Yun naturally understood what Kong Ju meant. He smiled with his bright eyes, curved them into an arc, shook his head and said to Kong Ju: "When Master Ji Shi was still alive, he suppressed countless Gujiang witch gods. Even if Ji Yuan has entered the devil's way, he can't make any waves in this Kuruo Temple."

"Perhaps after the incident at the Kuruo Temple, Jiyuan escaped from the Discipline Hall and took advantage of the resentment here to become powerful."

"It should be him who stopped us just now."

Kong Ju thought about it and felt that it made sense.

Master Jishi was a man who even the royal family wanted to be on good terms with, so a mere Jiyuan should be able to suppress him with a flip of his hand.

However, Kuruo Temple has been closed for a thousand years.

How could a monk possessed by a demon live so long? Kong Ju was also very surprised and naturally wanted to ask Cong Yun for advice.

Cong Yun showed a rare look of compassion and explained, "He is no longer a human being. Of course, we cannot reason with him based on common sense."

"Once the matter of Kuruo Temple is settled, I will go and ferry him over."

Although Zongyun said this lightly, Kong Qi could hear his determination.

The two of them had nothing more to say after this point in their conversation.

Kong Ju watched Congyun take two steps and stand in front of the Buddha statue, looking up at the face of the Buddha that had been eroded by time.

There was no emotion in his eyes, and I didn't know what he was thinking.

Kong Ju could roughly guess from his slightly moving lips that he was probably reciting some scripture.

Kong Ju listened for a while but could not understand what was going on. After all, he had no knowledge of Buddhist practice. He silently said in his heart, "Jiyuan also recites sutras all day long, but it is still useless."

After Kong Jue witnessed the experience of Ji Yuan in the illusion, he was disappointed with the Buddha that the monks talked about.

As soon as he finished saying this, his expression suddenly changed and he uttered a light exclamation.

He felt his spiritual energy surging, with a faint sign of it flowing out from his meridians.

The Bingpo Dao Foundation in the Dantian also trembled, and subconsciously emitted a pulling force, pulling the spiritual energy in the Kuruo Temple and rushing towards the main hall.

Affected by Kong Ju's spiritual power, the temperature in the entire hall dropped sharply, and the ground and Buddha statues were covered with a layer of white frost.

Seeing this, Kong Ju immediately showed a strange look on his face, and secretly said: "My cultivation has actually improved!"

His cultivation had silently reached the peak of foundation building.

This time, there was no warning for the improvement in his cultivation. According to his calculations, it would take him at least another half a year to reach the peak of the foundation-building stage.

This was so unbelievable that Kong Qi was stunned for a moment.

However, after a short rest and contemplation, Kong Ju roughly understood why his cultivation level had suddenly broken through.

"I think it has something to do with that illusion."

Although it was only a short period of time in the outside world, Kong Ju actually faced the wall for ten years in the illusion.

I was so caught up in Jiyuan's resentment and anger that I almost lost myself.

After he resisted the erosion of the illusion, his cultivation was like a blade that had been sharpened.

It is natural to make progress.

Cong Yun also saw the change in Kong Ju's spiritual power. He put his hands together, looked away from the Buddha statue, and congratulated with a smile: "Donor Kong, this is a blessing in disguise. Congratulations!"

"Come on, I would rather practice slowly." Kong Ju smiled embarrassedly.

Having said that, Kong Ju was already thinking about his next training plan.

Now that I have reached the peak of foundation building, it is the best time to introduce the Moonlight Yin Frost into my body.

Not only can he take this opportunity to break through the fetal light, but he may also be able to further improve his Bingpo Dao foundation to the peak of the Xuan level.

But the current situation is obviously not a good time for a breakthrough.

Kong Ju glanced at the black fog that was spreading around the palace.

Although they did not attack again after they entered the main hall, the guy who attacked them secretly must still be spying on them.

Breaking through in this Kuruo Temple is tantamount to seeking death.

“I can only wait until I get out of Kuruo Temple before I can make a breakthrough.” Kong Ju thought secretly.

After thinking about it, he found a place in the main hall, sat in meditation and adjusted his breathing to consolidate his current progress.

This main hall is relatively safe.

Once we get out of here, there will be no time for Kong Ju to meditate and regulate his breathing.

Congyun understood Kong Ju's intention and did not urge him to move forward.

Instead, he held the relic and took a few steps towards the Buddha statue in the temple, almost reaching the feet of the statue.

At the moment when Congyun was less than ten feet away from the Buddha statue.

The relic in his hand suddenly changed.

The colorful light it originally emitted was very faint, as if it was passively emitting light.

But the moment it came within ten feet of the Buddha statue, the light of the relic quickly became brighter, illuminating Yun's face with a golden glow.

At the same time, the Buddha statue is also illuminated by the light of the relics.

The Buddha statue covered with mottled marks became transparent under Cong Yun's slightly moved gaze.

A tall figure hidden in the Buddha statue was vaguely revealed.

Almost at the same time when it burst into light, he opened his eyes from regulating his breathing, and with a twist of his body, he was standing next to the cloud in the next moment.

Looking at the figure illuminated by the relics, his expression was solemn.

The fact that he could appear in Kurakuji was enough for him to treat it with caution.

What’s more, it was in that great hall where even the black fog dared not approach.

"Its existence might be the reason why the black fog dares not approach." Looking at the figure, Kong Ju spoke to Congyun in a serious tone.

As he spoke, he had already looked the figure up and down.

Although the figure was illuminated by the light of the relic, only an outline could be seen.

He seemed to be facing away from the hall, and his features could not be seen clearly. We could only tell that he was a male.

Even so, Kong Ju could sense a certain awe-inspiring majesty from that outline, causing his body to slightly tense.

Cong Yun pondered for a moment, tilted his head to look at Kong Ju, and suggested: "Just bring him out and see what happens."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Congyun came here to settle the cause and effect of Master Puhui and to find out the truth, so naturally he would not let go of any clues.

Kong Ju naturally had no objection to this.

Because when he looked at the figure, he didn't notice any danger, which was why he came here.

"Okay!" Kong Ju responded. Without asking Zong Yun to take action, he directly struck out towards the Buddha statue with his palm.

As his spiritual power vibrated, frosty white spiritual power poured out and turned into a palm print of condensed spiritual power in the air and slapped towards the Buddha statue.

Boom!

Accompanied by a roar that shook the Kuraku Temple.

The Buddha statue shattered into pieces.

The broken stones flew everywhere, revealing a corpse wearing a red robe with a five-clawed dragon pattern.

Without the support of the stone, the corpse fell directly from its seat and fell in front of Kong Ju and Cong Yun.

"This is it!" Looking at the familiar red robe with a five-clawed dragon pattern draped over the corpse, Kong Ju's face immediately froze.

How could he not recognize the identity of the man in red robe.

That was a red robe with a five-clawed dragon pattern that only the nobles of the Tianqi Dynasty were qualified to wear.

When he was in Wudong, Prince Qingluan came to the Cangwu Sect wearing this red robe.

This proves that the corpse in front of us must have been a prince of the Tianqi Dynasty.

As for the prince who had connection with Kuruo Temple, Kong Ju could not find another one except the old prince who came to Kuruo Temple with Master Puhui a thousand years ago.

"How could the old prince die here?"

"Could it be that I'm having an illusion again!" Kong Ju slapped his cheeks hard twice. Having experienced this once, he was extremely cautious. In order to confirm what he saw, he even asked Cong Yun beside him.

Cong Yun held the relic, with colorful lights flashing in his eyes. After confirming it several times, he nodded seriously: "Donor Kong is not mistaken, he is indeed wearing a robe with a five-clawed dragon pattern."

"He should be the old prince who came to this Kuruo Temple with Grandmaster Puhui."

Congyun is a direct disciple of Xiao Leiyin Temple and his knowledge of Buddhism is unfathomable.

Even he was sure of the identity of the person in front of him, so it was obviously not an illusion.

Kong Ju took a deep breath and carefully looked at the face of the old prince in front of him.

Although dead, his imposing aura still remained, and his hair was grey and meticulously combed.

On his skinny face, the bridge of his nose was tall and curved, and he no longer had the ferocious look he had before death, but a peaceful expression.

Looking at him from such a close distance, the remaining aura on his body occasionally drifted over, suppressing Kong Jue's spiritual power so much that it slightly solidified.

Kong Ju, who had dealt with Zhang Sheng more than once, was certain that the old prince's cultivation level before his death must have been Zhang Sheng's.

"How is it possible? How could the old prince die in Kurakuji Temple?"

"Didn't he order the entire Kurawa Temple to be sealed after he left Kurawa Temple?"

"Could it be that he has returned? He was eventually killed here by the culprit of Kururu Temple."

There were many doubts in front of him. In order to confirm the identity of the corpse, Kong Ju muttered to himself several times. Under Cong Yun's astonished gaze, he actually endured the pressure emanating from the corpse and stretched out his hand to reach out for the old prince's corpse.

"Master Kong, what are you doing?" Congyun was still a little afraid of the corpse.

After all, there are many strange things in this Kuruo Temple. It is not impossible that the corpse may have undergone some changes after so many years of erosion.

"The Tianqi royal family, especially the princes who can reach the level of palm life, must have a strong blood of the emperor." Kong Ju did not stop what he was doing. While thinking about the old prince approaching, he explained in a low voice: "The characteristic of people with the blood of the emperor is that their eyes are golden."

As he spoke, his palm had already touched the prince's face.

The corpse was cold, but there was no smell of decay. Kong Ju suppressed his fear and opened his eyelids under Cong Yun's gaze.

Bang! Brilliant golden light burst out from the corpse's pupils.

They were like two beams of light, illuminating the entire hall as bright as day.

Kong Ju's face was also illuminated by the golden light. He silently watched the light bursting from the old prince's pupils, and the last bit of hope in his heart disappeared.

He said to Congyun in a slightly hoarse voice: "He is wearing a robe with a five-clawed dragon pattern and has the blood of a human emperor."

"He is undoubtedly the old prince." (End of this chapter)
