Someone thought for a moment and said, "I can't see through their cultivation level. They are seniors, so we should treat them with courtesy."
Someone nearby immediately chimed in, "That makes sense."
"Hiss~ I can't even see through that little girl's cultivation level."
"That's just a normal kid, you idiot!"
...
Inside a wooden house.
Kong Yuan looked at the master craftsman who was completely unharmed and sneered inwardly.
really!
There's no such thing as being unconscious!
Rumor has it that their Western Buddha Kingdom's secret medicine, the Great Rejuvenation Pill, can bring the dead back to life and heal the wounded. Perhaps that's a bit of an exaggeration, but it's not far off.
As a renowned high monk in the Western Buddhist Kingdom, it's impossible that his master wouldn't need the Great Rejuvenation Elixir.
The master chef breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Kong Yuan return, saying, "Fortunately, Kong Yuan, you are safe and sound, otherwise my Western Buddha Kingdom would be in grave danger."
Kong Yuan nodded and asked, "Master, do you know who those people who captured me are?"
The head chef nodded. "Of course I know."
Kong Yuan continued, "Then why don't you say?"
The master chef shook his head with a wry smile, "My strength is insufficient. That woman... could destroy my Western Buddha Kingdom!"
The second master also sighed helplessly. He wanted to tell her too, but what if the woman found out that they had exposed the matter?
Whether they can survive today is uncertain, they dare not!
Kong Yuan nodded, understanding dawning on his mind.
So he said, "They arrested me just for their amusement, and before releasing me, they threatened me not to reveal their identities."
The master chef nodded, not doubting the truthfulness of Kong Yuan's words.
After all, Kong Yuan would never lie to them.
"Kongyuan, you must work hard. There is only one way to get rid of that woman's shadow: you must reach that legendary realm!" the master said earnestly.
Kong Yuan nodded, a cold smile playing on his lips. Those familiar words again.
Each time, he would only tell him about that so-called legendary realm, but he would never tell him what that realm actually was.
But this time, he needs to know!
"Master, what exactly is the realm above the ninth realm?"
The head chef shook his head. "It's not time yet. You'll know when the time comes."
"Master chef! Who am I?"
The head chef frowned. "You are Kong Yuan, a disciple of the Buddha of our Western Buddha Kingdom."
"Then why can't I know?!"
Seeing this, the second master thought that Kong Yuan was about to have another emotional breakdown, so he quickly said, "Your master just doesn't want you to be too ambitious."
"What 'aiming too high'? It's just an excuse. How can I work hard without a clear goal? In that case, I'd rather not be a Buddhist disciple!"
Upon hearing Kong Yuan's words, both the master and the second master were shocked. Had Kong Yuan's emotions really collapsed to this extent this time?
How could someone say something like that!
The master chef stopped hiding it and quickly said, "I don't know the specifics either, but it's rumored that above the ninth realm is the Supreme!"
"Supreme?"
Kong Yuan's emotions gradually calmed down. Above the ninth realm, is it the supreme martial arts master?
He didn't really want to know that.
He just wanted to see how those two old guys would react after he said he wouldn't become a Buddhist disciple.
Looking at it now, it's not bad!
Kong Yuan then gained confidence and turned around to say, "Masters, let's void the results of the Buddhist Dharma competition in this East-West Inter-Region Exchange Tournament. Our Western Buddhist Kingdom does not need such preferential treatment."
The head chef frowned upon hearing this. "Do you know what you're saying? If this is invalidated, it'll be a tie, and we'll have to play a tiebreaker!"
They are Buddhist and Taoist practitioners who specialize in alchemy and are quite proficient in talismans, but they only managed to win this exchange competition by sheer luck.
In addition, their military and weapon-forging efforts all ended in major defeats.
If it weren't for the victory of Buddhism, what would they compete in if they had to retake the competition? What else could they possibly have to offer?!
Kong Yuan waved his hand and said, "Our Western Buddha Kingdom does not need this kind of false victory. My two masters taught me to be upright and honorable."
The second master frowned and said, "No, if we scrap it now, we..."
"Hmph!" Kong Yuan snorted lightly, directly interrupting his second master, "My mind is made up, my two masters need not say more!"
The head chef couldn't help but stand up at this moment, "No, I disagree!"
Kong Yuan met the master's gaze directly and said without backing down, "Master, I am the true disciple of Buddha!"
