Entering the stone temple of the ancient temple, a strong Buddhist and Taoist atmosphere came to you, sacred and peaceful, but this was not the case for Ye Chen.
When he came here, Ye Chen clearly felt that the demonic nature hidden under the aura of Buddhism and Taoism was getting stronger. However, this demonic nature was hidden very deeply. If his soul had not been improved after breaking through the holy realm, it would have been difficult to detect it. .
The distance between the temples here is not far. You can see people coming to pray for Buddha at any time. Even before entering the temple, the attitude of those people is already pious. There are even people who are kowtowing step by step towards the Van Gogh Temple.
Looking at these people, Ye Chen couldn't help but shook his head secretly. No matter how pious he was, even if he broke his knees and bumped his forehead, it was useless. To the Buddha and the Demon, everyone in this land was just a tool to generate the power of faith. That¡¯s all.
Ye Chen and others walked all the way towards the Van Gogh Temple, which is surrounded by ancient temples. On the way, many monks from stone temples cast their eyes at them. They seemed kind, but they felt deep hostility and wariness.
"These monks are all cultivators and have memories that are unmatched by ordinary people. People who came here to pray for Buddha so many years ago are already familiar with them, but we are unfamiliar faces. It seems that they have begun to doubt."
"Don't worry, the monks in these temples are nothing. Apart from the fact that their temples can be turned into golden bells to subjugate demons, they have no deterrent effect."
Ye Chen glanced at the Green Flame Demon and the Fire Demon and said, "Don't use your spiritual thoughts to talk easily!"
"when"
As soon as he finished speaking, a loud bell suddenly sounded in the air in all directions, and then the road ahead became hazy. Heavy fog suddenly appeared on the wide ancient road, and it was impossible to see anything clearly beyond a hundred meters.
The Green Flame Demon and the Fire Demon fell silent immediately, understanding that they probably used their spiritual thoughts to talk without authorization and were sensed by the mysterious Qi machine. Now that something has happened on the ancient road, the people at Van Gogh Temple may have known about it.
"It seems that the Van Gogh Temple is far from being as simple as people think. They say that the Van Gogh Temple is mysterious, but the mystery in people's eyes is far less scary." Ye Chen looked at the hazy ancient road and sensed it. An almost supreme version of the Law Qi was circulating. He pointed it out, quickly carved formation patterns in the void, and at the same time stepped forward.
Ye Chen moved forward while carving the formation pattern. The formation pattern was imprinted in the void. The mist in front gradually dispersed, revealing ruins that exuded a terrifying aura. But when his footsteps fell, the ruins within a hundred meters in front of him suddenly disappeared. It disappeared in time and returned to the ancient path.
A fairy light flashed in Yu Linglong's eyes, and she said in a concentrated voice: "I didn't expect that a supreme illusion array would be set up here. Fortunately, after a long time, the power of these illusion arrays has become less powerful than before. Otherwise, we might not be able to get close to the Van Gogh Temple."
The flame demons followed behind Ye Chen and Yu Linglong without saying a word. They had never encountered such a situation before. Although they had become saints, they did not dare to be careless when facing the supreme level illusion array. If you make the wrong move, you could be doomed.
After walking for about ten miles, the front was already filled with fog and confusion, but the fog gradually dissipated as Ye Chen's formations were imprinted in the void, always rising and falling a hundred meters in front of them.
They continued to move forward. When the fog dispersed again, a mountain with shining Buddha light appeared in their eyes, blocking the ancient road and blocking their way.
This mountain towers into the clouds. There is mist on both sides of the mountain. It is not clear how big it is, but it feels like it cuts off the entire world. The Buddha's light blooms on it, and the powerful Buddhist energy permeates the air like an invisible force. Tianyu suppressed and came down.
Ye Chen and Yu Linglong had calm expressions. This kind of energy had no impact on them at all, but the faces of the Balrogs changed slightly. They had already felt the pressure faintly. Even if they were saints, they would be like this if they were other cultivators. , I'm afraid it will be crushed into pulp in an instant.
"Buddhism emphasizes compassion, but I didn't expect that there is such a domineering power of Buddhism. It really opened Ye's eyes!" Ye Chen put his hands behind his back, wore white clothes, and had black hair scattered behind his head and in front of him, which was profound and intimidating. His eyes looked at the mountain coldly.
"Amitabha! My Buddha is compassionate and takes it as his own duty to relieve the suffering of the common people and save all sentient beings in the world. His purpose and belief have never changed. Subduing demons and eliminating demons is also a matter of classification for people in Buddhism. All donors are full of demonic aura and trespass on our Buddha. Tao Holy Land, you have defiled the Holy Land. It is already a great mercy for me, the Buddha, not to suppress you, why don¡¯t you leave quickly!¡±
"There is no point in saying these sanctimonious and hypocritical words." Ye Chen brushed the corner of his clothes and said: "A senior monk in your temple promised Ye a few years ago, saying that if you release the two people who have been suppressed by you for decades, Woman and man, I just want to know if your words will be fulfilled?"
The mountains suddenly calmed down, and time and space here seemed to have stopped. After a while,A Buddha's name came up, and the previous voice sounded again: "Amitabha, it turns out to be the donor. Please forgive me for not being able to recognize it. When my nephew Huiming returned to the temple, he already explained it to me and others, and after discussion, I and others agreed. , I have been waiting for Donor Ye to come here."
"In that case, please move this mountain away. Is it your way of hospitality at Van Gogh Temple to block our way?" Yu Linglong said lightly, not believing what the old monk said.
In fact, Ye Chen didn't believe what the old monk said, and felt that their move must have another purpose, but he didn't say anything, just looked at the mountains in front of him quietly, and saw that the old monk seemed to take the initiative to move the mountains.
"That's good! That's good! I heard that Donor Ye and others have magical powers, so I came all the way this time. I also want to see Donor Ye's magical powers with my own eyes. I believe that a mere mountain can't reach Donor Ye, so why should I take action."
"Since the master said so, Ye will not bother the master." Ye Chen said lightly, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart. It was obvious that it was not that simple to invite this mountain. The old monk from the Van Gogh Temple just wanted to test his strength. Regarding this He didn't care either. At that moment, his tongue exploded with spring thunder and he drank out the supreme mantra: "Om, ma, ni, ba, mi, hum!"
Six golden Buddhist supreme mantras rushed out of Ye Chen's mouth and flew towards the mountains ahead. In the process, they quickly grew in size, and finally completely covered the entire mountain.
"Boom"
With a shocking loud noise, the mountain collapsed, and the Buddha's light on it suddenly disappeared. Except for the six-character mantra, all the Buddhist energy was completely dissipated in an instant. After the collapse, the remaining rocks on the mountain were also distorted in space. It disappears in the middle and finally turns into a flat and wide ancient road.
"Donor Ye is really good at it. I didn't expect that he really knew the supreme power of Buddhism and Taoism. It's really amazing." The old monk's voice came from the end of the empty ancient road. It sounded unusually calm, without any fluctuations or surprises.
However, Ye Chen and Yu Linglong knew that the old monk's expression at this moment must be very exciting. From the moment he appeared, he would pronounce the Buddha's name before saying a word, but just now he had even forgotten the Buddha's name. One can imagine how shocked they were inside.
Arriving at the end of the ancient road, Ye Chen and others finally saw the old monk who had spoken before. This old monk was wearing an ancient cassock and his body was as thin as firewood. The most eye-catching thing was his eyes.
The old monk¡¯s eyes are very special. The areas around his eyes are inky black. Of course, these are not dark circles, but the demonic nature in his heart has reached a certain level and is reflected on the surface. It can be seen at a glance.
"Master, it seems that your face is not very good. Ye happens to have a volume of "The Diamond Sutra of Conquering Demons" here. I wonder if you need Ye to read it to Master?" Ye Chen walked up to the old monk with a smile, and was very surprised. easy going.
When the old monk heard the words, the muscles on his face inadvertently twitched, and then he put on a compassionate and solemn face, raised his hands in front of his chest: "Amitabha, I would like to thank the donor Ye for his kindness. The "Vajra Subduing Demon Sutra" is also available in the temple. Don't bother Ye. Donor, please ask Donor Ye to follow Lao Na to the temple and pick up your friend as soon as possible. "
"That's great, then Master Lao will lead the way." Ye Chen said with a kind smile on his face, but he was wary of the Van Gogh Temple in his heart. The old monk's behavior was too abnormal.
The old monk's demonic appearance has appeared, but the Van Gogh Temple also asked him to come to greet him. This shows that they will never be as relaxed as they say on the surface and will directly release Yingzi, Yafeina and Voss. , must have other plans.
The end of the ancient road is a large mountain with boiling spiritual energy. This mountain is called Van Gogh Mountain, and the Van Gogh Temple is located on it. Leading to the mountain is a bluestone staircase that slopes upward. It is so high that it does not reach the top, and half of the mountainside is shrouded in smoke.
Following the old monk, the journey was very smooth. Apart from the strong Buddhist and Taoist atmosphere, Mount Van Gogh could not sense any other atmosphere. The atmosphere here was very peaceful, at least in the perception of the Balrogs.
" However, Yu Linglong vaguely felt an inexplicable and dangerous energy. Her soul level was not as high as Ye Chen's, so naturally she couldn't sense it so clearly.
Ye Chen once told the flame demons not to close their six senses and not to use their spiritual thoughts rashly. Although Yu Linglong's Yuan Shen realm was much higher than theirs, she felt the mysterious energy here, so she did not dare to use her spiritual thoughts rashly, fearing that something might happen. .
Arriving halfway up the mountain, the smoke and clouds here were hazy, adding to the mystery. When they walked out of the smoke and clouds, the whole world was filled with the golden light of Buddhism and Taoism, and a magnificent and ancient temple appeared in their eyes.
I don¡¯t know how many years this temple has gone through, but the buildings have left no trace of the years. There are many temples, stone towers, halls, etc. in front of the temple¡¯s gate. There is a vast square whereThere were six skinny old monks standing there, and there were dozens of old monks behind them. Judging from where they stood, the six old monks in front were the most senior.
Those old monks stood in front of the gate of Van Gogh Temple and looked at Ye Chen and others calmly. However, from this calm gaze, Ye Chen felt a deep greed. Moreover, their eyes were all black, and even their lips were a little black. Each of them was as skinny as firewood. Judging from the exposed fingers and necks, the flesh and blood were almost shriveled, leaving only skin and bones.
These old monks look a bit scary, not human-like at all, and look no different from zombies. But in fact, they cannot be zombies. They are just because they are too old, and they should have died by force with their telekinesis. Their bodies shriveled up as a result of extending their lives, and their nostalgia for life made them become greedy. The demonic nature in their hearts deepened day by day, to the point where they became what they are today.
By this time, Ye Chen no longer believed that they were just trying to stay alive. He suspected that these monks were sucking people's original essence to stay alive, because he had sensed life essence from these old monks that did not belong to them. .
