938: Chapter 936: Gathering at Shaolin!
Upon the land of the Western Province.
The news about Celestial Dragon Temple harboring filth and sheltering many demonic cultivators spread like a plague, from high-ranking Buddhist masters to ordinary believers.
Every conversation over tea and als revolved around the ties between the Celestial Dragon Temple and the path of demons.
anwhile…
As the masters from Vajra Temple and Hanging Temple headed to Luo Feng Slope, they indeed discovered a site for demonic cultivation.
They also found the bodies of ancestors from various temples and the recently and mysteriously vanished masters hidden at the demonic cultivation site, along with confessions from “survivors” who claid that their assailants used the unique skills of the Celestial Dragon Temple.
Almost everyone began to suspect the involvent of the Celestial Dragon Temple with the demonic path.
And at this ti…
Shaolin Temple, always claiming to be the leader of the Buddhist Nation, suddenly issued a Buddhist invitation, calling for the heads of Vajra Temple and Hanging Temple to et at Mount Shaoshi.
Among the four major Buddhist Nations, three heads gathered.
Only Celestial Dragon Temple was omitted.
This news, once spread, made the situation of Celestial Dragon Temple even more delicate…
…
Celestial Dragon Temple.
Since the death of the Eight Celestial Dragons, they imdiately relayed the news to the Celestial Dragon Supre at the Holy Spirit Mountain.
The death of the Eight Celestial Dragons also greatly shocked the Celestial Dragon Supre.
After all.
From his past encounters with Xiao Yi, he firmly believed that Xiao Yi had not even reached the Heaven Venerate Realm.
For this reason.
The Celestial Dragon Supre had sent out the Eight Celestial Dragons, believing that with their strength, as long as Nantian Holy Land remained uninvolved, they could easily overpower the vast Southern State.
But the result was the total annihilation of the Eight Celestial Dragons.
This not only infuriated the Celestial Dragon Supre but also forced him to temporarily abandon dealing with Xiao Yi.
Among the Eight Celestial Dragons, Huiqing, who was at the Heavenly Venerate Realm Peak and just a step away from the Supre, was a top-tier master.
Even he perished at the hands of Xiao Yi.
Under the rule that a Supre must not leave their native soil casually, he had no way to deal with Xiao Yi and had to temporarily put the matter aside.
anwhile, to secure the position of Celestial Dragon Temple as one of the four major Buddhist Nations, the Celestial Dragon Supre had no choice but to dispatch masters from Holy Spirit Mountain to preside over Celestial Dragon Temple.
There were three masters sent to station at Celestial Dragon Temple.
These three were disciples taken by the Celestial Dragon Supre at Holy Spirit Mountain after becoming the Buddha Supre.
Though their ti with the Celestial Dragon Supre was not as long as Huiqing’s, their combat power far surpassed that of Huiqing and the others, especially the eldest disciple Hui Tian, who had reached the Half-Step Supre Realm.
As for the second disciple Hui Di, and the third disciple Hui Ren, they were also at the Heavenly Venerate Realm Peak.
With the strength of these three disciples, they could easily suppress all the forces in the Western Province.
Of course.
This refers to normal circumstances.
But this ti…
It was clear that even the three of them were struggling to cope.
Inside Celestial Dragon Temple.
The three brothers, Hui Tian, were sitting on ditation cushions, obviously with Hui Tian as the lead, while Hui Di and Hui Ren sat on two cushions directly opposite him, side by side.
In the dull and oppressive atmosphere.
Hui Tian was the first to speak, “Junior brothers, since our master has entrusted Celestial Dragon Temple to us, the troubles faced by the temple naturally fall upon us to resolve.
Now, the rumors circulating in the outside world are very disadvantageous to our Celestial Dragon Temple.
What are your views on this?”
“There is no doubt, this is definitely a fra-up!” Hui Di said with an ominous expression.
“Even though we know it’s a fra-up, what can we do?
Vajra Temple, Hanging Temple, and Shaolin Temple, we have no clue which among them is framing us, not to ntion…”
Hui Ren said with a bitter smile, “The most urgent matter right now is not to find out who frad us, but that Shaolin Temple has actually called together the heads of Hanging and Vajra Temples.
I’m afraid the visitors have ill intentions!”
Hui Tian nodded, “Junior brother Hui Ren is right.
The top priority is to figure out the purpose behind their eting.
Junior brother Hui Di, this matter shall be handled by you…”
“Brother, rest assured, I have already employed our planted agent within Shaolin Temple, and I believe news will arrive very soon!” Hui Di played with the Buddha Beads in his hand and responded indifferently.
Hui Tian emitted an ‘Mm’, narrowing his eyes into slits, “Our master entrusted Celestial Dragon Temple to us; this is a show of his trust, as well as the highest honor we could receive.
We must ensure no mishappenings befall Celestial Dragon Temple!”
His gaze then turned in the direction of Shaolin Temple.
For so reason…
He felt as if over that region of the sky, clouds were rolling in, brewing a trendous storm.
…
A thousand miles away from Mount Shaoshi.
The sky was azure blue, like a crystal clear, pure blue gem, occasionally dotted with wispy clouds.
Above the silent skies, a golden Buddhist vessel was traversing through the void.
Onboard the vessel were the powerhouses of Vajra Temple and Hanging Temple.
Vajra Temple’s peak Heaven Venerate Realm master, Guang Liang, and Hanging Temple’s abbot, Xuan Cang, were both present.
Apart from Guang Liang and Xuan Cang, there naturally were other top experts from the two temples.
Though all evidence pointed to Celestial Dragon Temple being the true assassins and grave robbers of the strong from both temples, Shaolin Temple had suddenly invited them at this critical juncture.
Even as individuals of the peak of Heaven Venerate Realm, they too had to tread carefully.
After all.
The power behind Shaolin Temple was not to be underestimated!
“Brother Guang Liang, Shaolin Temple inviting us at this critical mont, I don’t know what they’re plotting?” Xuan Cang feigned confusion.
Guang Liang was a straightforward monk.
His face worn a gentle smile, as if no matter what happened, everything was always light and breezy for him, he said, “Shaolin Temple’s actions have always been unpredictable.
However, this ti they’ve convened you and , but notably absent were people from Celestial Dragon Temple.
If I’m not mistaken, it should be to deal with Celestial Dragon Temple!”
“Celestial Dragon Temple has indeed gone too far over so matters, regardless of whether the demon refining grounds are really connected with them.
This admonishnt must proceed!
But only…”
Xuan Cang’s eyes narrowed, and a substantial chill emitted from them, “rely dealing with Celestial Dragon Temple, with you and I joining forces, is almost certain.
As for Shaolin Temple, if they cooperate with us smoothly, after taking down Celestial Dragon Temple, we’ll share so benefits with them.
If they don’t obey, with the power we command, there’s nothing to fear from them.”
Guang Liang laughed heartily, “Exactly, exactly, in that case, let all arrangents be guided by Abbot Xuan Cang!”
The two looked at each other and laughed triumphantly.
Monts later.
The giant Buddhist vessel entered the territory of Mount Shaoshi.
The group disembarked at the foot of Mount Shaoshi, and there to greet them was the head of the Reception Hall, Fazhen.
Holding Buddhist etiquette, Fazhen nodded towards them and chanted ‘Amitabha’, “Welco dear guests who have traveled far, our Buddha King has been awaiting you for a long ti!”
“Buddha King?”
“Fakong was doing fine as an abbot, did he crown himself as Buddha King now?”
The two exchanged glances, showing a hint of confusion.
Fazhen smiled slightly, shaking his head, “No, no, our Buddha King is not brother Fakong.” pausing, he wore a mysteriously smiling expression on his face, saying, “When you reach the place, naturally you will et our Buddha King, no need to waste effort guessing!”
“This…”
Guang Liang appeared hesitant, intensely stared at Xuan Cang, waiting for his decision.
Xuan Cang also hesitated for a mont, finally gritting his teeth, he said, “You and I joining forces, unless it’s the Holy Spirit Mountain, there’s nowhere we cannot go!
I want to see just who this Buddha King of Shaolin Temple really is!”
