Chapter 205: Western Countries, Labyrinth Mage
The native Eurysus sensed Lu Feng's arrival and came to greet him.
Lu Feng controlled the Death Mantis and communicated with Orleans, and learned that those people from the "Western Regions" who came to Dahe Temple by airship had not left.
The airship arrived at Dahe Temple last night, and after a day, it showed no sign of flying out.
"It seems that Dahe Temple is entertaining the 'visitors from the Western Regions' very well! I wonder what they are discussing!" Lu Feng muttered to himself.
It is said that if you know yourself and your enemy, you can be victorious in battle.
The 'visitors from the Western Regions' had not left yet, so Lu Feng had ample opportunities to get close to them and explore their secrets.
but,
Lu Feng did not rush into Dahe Temple rashly.
Just outside the Dahe Temple where the native Orleans was.
He planned to wait quietly.
Last time, Master Xinhai relied on the geographical advantage in Dahe Temple and displayed his powerful strength to suppress him.
Lu Feng still remembers it vividly.
Even though he now has the third-level combat power of Death Mantis, Lu Feng has no intention of going deep into the dragon's den and provoke Master Xinhai.
Master Xinhai has the advantage of geographical location and is extremely powerful.
If he were to kill the Death Mantis, he would suffer a great loss.
Lu Feng had refined countless bottles of potions to get this treasure worth more than three million magic stones, so he was reluctant to waste it.
While Lu Feng and the native Eurysos were in the wild,
Inside the brightly lit, jade-like hall of Dahe Temple, Master Xinhai was entertaining guests from the Western Regions.
Master Xinhai was sitting on guard, dressed in gorgeous monk's robes. His skin and flesh were transparent and his appearance was solemn. At first glance, he looked like a Buddha in a temple that had been worshipped for a long time.
With his eyes slightly closed, Master Xinhai observed the visitors from the Western Regions who were drinking happily in the hall.
Dahe Temple had lived in Liangzhou for a long time. About two or three years ago, by chance, they discovered a special place in the golden sand sea that could connect to the "Western Regions".
Master Xinhai has locked himself in the Dahe Temple for the purpose of planning the blessed land and cannot leave. He can only ask two high monks who have reached the spiritual realm in the temple to explore.
However, that special place was filled with dangers. Without the strength of Master Xinhai, the two monks from Dahe Temple who had just cultivated their spiritual veins had no way of exploring the mysteries. They could only slowly grope their way around the edge of this special place.
However, a few days ago, monks from Dahe Temple who were exploring the edge of a special place discovered a Western Region airship trapped in the special place.
Although they couldn't speak the same language, both parties had some spiritual power and were able to communicate smoothly by communicating with each other.
After some communication, the monks of Dahe Temple helped the visitors from the Western Regions escape from the dangerous special place. The visitors from the Western Regions thanked Dahe Temple for saving their lives and specially drove a Western Region airship to Dahe Temple to visit and express their gratitude.
It just so happened that Master Xinhai was also very interested in the visitors from the Western Regions who came from a special place.
Now that the spiritual realm advancement of Dahe Temple has been blocked, Master Xinhai is keenly aware that behind these visitors from the Western Regions who have escaped from a special place, there may be an opportunity for their Dahe Temple to become great again.
The appearance of these visitors from the Western Regions is very different from that of the humans of the Election Dynasty.
Most of the Western Regions people entertained by Dahe Temple had fair skin, thin faces, eagle noses, blue eyes, and pointed ears.
Just by looking at their expressions, Master Xinhai felt unhappy for no reason.
I always have the feeling that these people are extremely treacherous and greedy.
To be honest, the first impression that the visitors from the Western Regions left on Master Xinhai was not a good one.
Master Xinhai has been the abbot of Dahe Temple for a long time. He is very shrewd and would not show his disgust on his face. He still has a kind face and a smiling face.
Master Xinhai sat on a high platform, and below him, the monk in charge of reception from Dahe Temple was communicating and chatting with the visitors from the Western Regions.
These monks practiced Dahe Temple's unique Buddhist teachings, "The Eight Treasures Miraculous Glazed Body", and their skin became as white as snow, as delicate as if it could be broken by a blow, as if it were made of white jade, and as if it were ice reflecting the light. There was also a strange fragrance around their bodies.
If this method is practiced to perfection, it will be in line with the Buddhist principle of seven incense and eight treasures. At that time, the strange fragrance will surround the whole body, and a single glance can make people intoxicated, no matter whether they are men or women.
It is the first-class Buddhist doctrine in the Buddhist community of the Great Xuan Dynasty.
Of course, the monks in charge of reception at Dahe Temple in the audience were far from reaching such a high level of cultivation, but the cultivation of these visitors from the Western Regions was not high either. Most of them relaxed their vigilance thanks to the efforts of the monks in charge of reception at Dahe Temple, and while drinking happily, they talked about the scenery of the Western Regions and their wonderful journey through dangerous places.
Among them there was a group of about ten people who were not deceived by the monk in charge of reception at Dahe Temple. They gathered around a middle-aged gentleman wearing a black suit, a top hat and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, feeling uneasy amid the lascivious music in the hall.
"Teacher Philius, these bald foreigners don't look like good people. It feels like we just got out of danger and fell into another deep pit." Next to the middle-aged gentleman, a young student asked his teacher in the Western language in a panic.
Just by smelling the scent of incense that was everywhere in the hall, the middle-aged gentleman named Philios felt something was wrong.
Philios is no ordinary person. He is a formal member of the Steam and Steel Association of the Western Regions and also a mid-level wizard with a certain reputation in the Western Regions.
In the Western Regions, mages cultivate their mental strength through meditation, and use special alchemical potions to open up special mental spaces in their minds and construct mental mazes, thus possessing magical powers far beyond those of ordinary people.
Philios, who was at the intermediate level of wizard, had already begun to form a mental maze in the orifice of his brain. With his powerful mental strength, he could naturally distinguish the strange smell of incense in the hall.
In addition, the monks who entertained them all exuded strange and exotic fragrances that made people feel favorable. This was obviously not a normal way of entertaining guests.
They are all trying to slack off their spirits, relax their vigilance, and pry more information out of their mouths.
Philios could still take care of the dozen or so apprentices around him with his own level of magic, but he could not take care of the other workers and guards on the airship.
Even though he was only taking care of his few apprentices, Philios was being watched by the Heart Sea Mage on the high platform.
That sharp gaze that seemed to be real made Philios feel as if he was being watched by the only and greatest being in the Steam and Steel Association.
You know, that great being from the Steam and Steel Association is one of the top ten great wizards among the Western countries, and the spiritual labyrinth constructed in his spiritual orifice has evolved to an incredible level.
I can’t be so unlucky that I meet a great wizard just after I get out of danger?
Moreover, from the looks of it, this great wizard doesn't seem to be an upright person.
Phelios was worried about his future.
Under the gaze of Master Xinhai, Philios had no choice but to act like a coward and quietly eat the food on the table.
The monk in charge of reception at Dahe Temple below the stage was very capable. He soon made everyone on the airship, except Philius and others, talk till they were dizzy. They also kept talking about all kinds of knowledge about the Western Regions that they knew.
Master Xinhai listened in all directions and looked in all directions, taking in all the information from the audience. The smile on his face became brighter and brighter, but at the same time, his doubts grew more and more.
"It turns out that behind the golden sea of sand, there is such a piece of land hidden!"
Behind the special place in the Golden Sand Sea is the Western Region. According to the information collected from the idlers on the airship, Master Xinhai learned:
The land in the Western Region is not small, but it is slightly fragmented and divided into a large number of islands.
Because of its special geographical environment, there is no unified country in the Western Regions, but it is composed of many small countries.
The countries often went to war with each other for various interests, and the fights were fierce until the past hundred years, when several great wizards with endless power were born in the Western Regions. Under their negotiation, the Western Regions temporarily put aside their hatred and formed a pan-continental alliance.
With the powerful intervention of the great wizards, the countries temporarily ushered in peace. At the same time, the era entered a new era with the emergence of steam power.
"Is this a cave left behind by a fallen immortal? Or is it an unknown world?"
Master Xinhai muttered to himself, looked up at the dome of the hall, and recalled the secrets passed down from generation to generation in Dahe Temple.
Dahe Temple has a long heritage, and naturally has collected some secrets of the world of immortals, and knows about the existence of the blessed land and cave.
It’s a pity that those powerful sects that once hollowed out the world have long since disappeared from the world after destroying it.
They call it reducing the consumption of heaven and earth spiritual energy by earthly immortal monks, but in fact they are just afraid that the heaven and earth spiritual energy in their own blessed land will flow back to the present heaven and earth!
Master Xinhai hated those cowards in his heart. If it weren't for them, it wouldn't be so difficult for his Dahe Temple to find a blessed land.
"From what they said, I always felt that the place where the Western Regions are located is not like a cave, but more like a world, with its own sun, moon, stars, perfect rules, and cultivation system."
All these phenomena indicate the origin of the lands of the Western Regions. As he thought more deeply and various pieces of information were verified, Master Xinhai's heart began to pound.
Master Xinhai realized that
The countries in the Western Regions may be a great opportunity for Dahe Temple.
"If we can go to the Western Regions and plunder the spiritual energy resources and spiritual veins of the heaven and earth, it will be easy for Dahe Temple to be promoted to a blessed land. However, the high-level combat power of the Western Regions and the famous great magician are so powerful. If they are powerful, I am afraid that Dahe Temple will not be able to act recklessly."
Master Xinhai was afraid of the top combat power of the Western Regions, and he wanted to explore it, so he turned his attention to Philios who was protecting his apprentice.
"This man's name is Philios. He is a mid-level mage in the Western Region Steam and Steel Association. He is considered a good player in the Western Region. He can be regarded as someone who can rule a city. In some small countries, he can even rule a country! But from his aura, it seems that Philios's body is weak. The only thing worth affirming is his strong mental power, which is almost comparable to that of a Taoist who has cultivated a spiritual vein."
Taking advantage of the geographical location, the Heart Sea Mage looked at Philios unscrupulously and explored the secrets of Philios.
"Only cultivating the spirit, not the body. The best cultivation methods in the Western Regions are very unconventional."
There are countless books in Dahe Temple, and Master Xinhai has naturally seen many methods of cultivation.
There are methods similar to that of Philios in the scripture library of the temple. However, in the world of earthly immortals, if one does not practice the way of earthly immortals and does not build a spiritual realm, this unconventional method will ultimately fail to lead to the great way.
Perhaps you can develop temporary combat power, but you cannot achieve a transformation in your life realm or increase your lifespan.
After a hundred years, you will eventually become a handful of dirt in the ground.
"However, we have to fight to know his specific combat capabilities. This is a good opportunity for me to get a glimpse of the power of the Western Region Master Mage from Philios' abilities!"
Master Xinhai finalized his plan in his mind and coughed, interrupting the lively atmosphere in the hall.
When everyone's eyes were focused, Master Xinhai slowly spoke:
"It's quite lively today. Now, a monk from Dahe Temple will show you some tricks to liven up the atmosphere!"
After Master Xinhai finished speaking, a monk beside him named Xinhe walked to the front of the stage at Master Xinhai's suggestion.
The monk Xinhe smiled at everyone present and said, "I am sorry to show you my ugliness!"
As soon as the voice fell, a solemn and majestic golden statue of Buddha appeared behind Xinhe. A peaceful aura instantly emanated from the golden body of the Buddha, bursting out and enveloping everyone present.
The ordinary workers on the Western Region airship only felt as if they saw the gods promoted in their country's churches. They were so moved that they wanted to bow down and worship. The soldiers on the airship also had some physical cultivation, but they still could not resist the power of the Buddha's golden body. After struggling for some time, they were also immersed in the Buddha's light.
When Master Philios stood out in Xinhe, he felt like he was facing a formidable enemy.
When the golden body of Buddha was revealed in the monk's heart, he suddenly stood up, with bright blue light shining in his eyes.
Woo woo!
With a loud steam whistle, a steam train emitting billowing black smoke ran on the rails, surrounding Philios with great momentum. The billowing steam smoke evolved into a black barrier, protecting Philios' body and blocking the Buddha's light of the Xinhe monk.
"Humph! Is this how you, the Dahe Temple, treat your guests? We, the Steam and Steel Association, are not to be trifled with! That adult is always watching us!"
Philios snorted coldly and mentioned the backer behind him.
"Don't get excited, Master Filius! This is just a small activity to adjust the atmosphere at the banquet. If you don't like it, I can tell Xinhe to stop. However, at that time, you can only leave Dahe Temple!"
Master Xinhai said with a smile.
Philios understood the hidden meaning of Master Xinhai's words. If Philios did not follow his instructions, he would probably suffer an unexpected disaster.
It was obvious that he could not defeat this bald native. Not only would he die, but the others on the airship would also die.
From Master Xinhai's words, Philius could hear the confidence of Dahe Temple.
That's right, this is another country, and Okawa Temple obviously doesn't need to be wary of the Steam and Steel Association behind him.
hateful!
