"How dare you!" Upon hearing Chu Nian's question, Kong Yuan could no longer contain his anger and immediately slammed his fist on the table, shouting.
Chu Nian sighed, "Master, why have you never reflected on yourself from beginning to end?"
Kong Yuan: "Reflect? How dare you ask your teacher to reflect? Do you even know who you are?" She was so angry that her face turned purple.
Chu Nian said coldly, "No matter what you say, the blood fusion has been broken, and it's impossible to reconnect it. Let it be!"
Kong Yuan was taken aback, then let out a cold laugh and said, "'That's it'? What do you mean by that? You're disobeying your master's orders and even telling me to get out?"
Chu Nian: "I am afraid I cannot obey your orders."
Kong Yuan's face was also extremely cold. He said, "Blood Fusion is a rule that Emei has had since ancient times. Now that you have broken it, aren't you afraid of being condemned by the entire Emei?"
Chu Nian chuckled after hearing this and said, "What, Master, you've realized you can't completely control your disciple anymore, so you're going to call for your destruction? You're going to call on the entire Emei Sect to attack me?"
Kong Yuan: "I'll say it again, blood fusion isn't just a rule of Qingyun Temple. The Golden Summit of Emei will soon discover that the blood fusion between you and me has been broken."
Only disciples who have been expelled from their sect would experience this. You once betrayed Emei and joined the demonic sect, almost getting expelled from Emei Golden Summit. It was only through my repeated pleading that you were able to retain your status as a disciple of Qingyun Temple. Now… ha!
She gave a bitter laugh, her emotions a mix of feelings, and said, "If I had known you would end up like this, why did I insist on bringing you back from Demon Mountain in the first place?"
Chu Nian realized that her anger wasn't entirely due to losing control of herself, but also to worry about the current situation. Her anger subsided considerably, and her heart softened. She said, "Master, don't worry. Even if the Golden Summit of Emei comes to punish me, I can bear it."
"Why are you doing this to yourself?" Kong Yuan sighed. "At most, I can only find your whereabouts through the Blood Fusion Technique. Are you really that concerned about that?"
Chu Nian: "This makes me feel like there's always a pair of eyes watching me, which makes me very uncomfortable."
Kong Yuan: "You used to be so good, so obedient, with only cultivation in your heart." Her voice was full of enlightenment.
Chu Nian stared at her and said softly, "Master, you and I both cultivate the Path of Ruthlessness. Our minds should not be trapped in the memories of our past happy lives, otherwise our cultivation will stagnate."
Kong Yuan said, "Is that so? No wonder my cultivation has been stuck at the Mahayana level. I wonder if I will ever have a chance to break through?" After saying that, she left the Wunian Tower with a sad expression.
The Golden Summit of Emei that Kong Yuan was worried about could be said to be the headquarters of dozens of temples and monasteries in Emei. It was the sect founded by the true founder of Emei. It was built on the highest peak of Emei and had countless temples on a magnificent scale.
It is said that its architectural specifications are no less impressive than those of Lingshan.
However, the original owner had cultivated for hundreds of years but had never been to the Golden Summit of Mount Emei. Apart from having heard of the Golden Summit of Mount Emei since childhood, she had no other memories of it.
Kong Yuan was constantly worried that Chu Nian would go to Demon Mountain again, so he used the Blood Fusion Technique to keep an eye on Chu Nian. That's why he noticed something was wrong as soon as the Blood Fusion Technique was broken.
However, no one on the Golden Summit of Emei was as observant as Kong Yuan, so when this Buddhist holy land, which the original owner had only heard rumors about besides Mount Ling, discovered that the blood fusion technique between a disciple and his master in a small temple had been broken, it was already a month later.
At that time, Kongyuan had already announced his seclusion, saying that he wanted to reflect on his mistakes in order to have an epiphany and hoped to advance his cultivation to a higher level.
No one knew that there was another reason for her seclusion at this time. After all, she had indeed stayed in the Mahayana stage for a long time, so it was perfectly normal for her to be eager to break through the seclusion.
Of course, the leap from Mahayana to the Immortal Realm is a qualitative leap from the Spirit Realm to the Immortal Realm. There are nine out of ten strong cultivators like her who stay in Mahayana for a long time without breaking through, not to mention the Buddhist sect, but the entire cultivation world.
Lin Jingting and Rulai, who originally came to Wunian Tower as guests, were impatiently kicked out by Chu Nian after Kong Yuan left Wunian Tower.
However, after hearing Kong Yuan's words, both of them became somewhat curious about the Golden Summit of Emei. Therefore, although they left Qingyun Temple, they did not really leave Emei.
But when they reached the summit of Mount Emei, they found only a huge, heavy gate with the words "Emei" written on the plaque.
"There should be another space behind this door, monk. Emei is a branch of your Buddhist sect, don't you know anything about it?" Lin Jingting asked helplessly via telepathy.
This gate is quite powerful. It will probably take him and Buddha quite some time to break through the magic array on it, and they might even make a scene when they do. It won't be easy to go inside and explore.
With a bitter face, Buddha said, "There are only senior nuns, middle-aged nuns, and young nuns here. What use is it for me, a monk, to know about this?"
Lin Jingting questioned, "When you gave them those array-refining bottles, didn't you even mention giving them a heads-up?"
The Buddha was truly at his wit's end when this matter was brought up. To be honest, he only vaguely remembered that the Buddhist cultivator who accepted his storage space was a woman. As for what she looked like, what her personality was like, or even when he gave the item away, he couldn't remember at all.
Hearing Lin Jingting's question, his chubby face almost scrunched up like a bun. He said, "Even if I did consider it at the time, so many years have passed. Can you blame me for not remembering?"
Lin Jingting sighed deeply, stroked his chin, and pondered, "The magic array on this door is so powerful that the person who set it up must have studied my array diagrams from back then. This is troublesome. She has improved it a lot, and it won't be easy for me to break it."
The Buddha said, “If you are worried about Wu Nian and afraid that the people here will come out to cause trouble for her, then we can simply stay here. If anyone comes out, we can keep an eye on them secretly. As long as we ensure Wu Nian’s safety, there’s no need to go and destroy someone’s nunnery!”
He firmly believed that it was outrageous for two grown men to trespass into a nunnery. Visiting Qingyun Nunnery, where their old friend Wu Nian resided, was perfectly acceptable. However, the situation at Emei Golden Summit was different. If Lin Jingting intended to do something and he was powerless to stop them, wouldn't that be disastrous?
Fortunately, Lin Jingting agreed with his words. The two of them then stood guard outside the strange door at the Golden Summit of Mount Emei. Since they were hiding inside a spatial artifact, they were well-fed, well-drinked, and very comfortable, so they didn't feel anything amiss.
After waiting for more than a month, the door suddenly creaked open, and a group of slender nuns with chiseled features walked out. There were twelve of them.
The two were startled, and Lin Jingting quickly used his spatial artifact to secretly follow them.
