Chapter 181 The land at the end of the world, the inheritance of Tianfo
Grandma Jinhua is an old friend of the master, and Lu Cheng, as a junior, must be more polite.
But after calling several times outside Biyun Cave, the cave in front of him was still deathly silent.
Seeing this, Lu Cheng no longer hesitated, made a hand seal, and then escaped into the lake next to the Dongfu Stone Palace in front of him.
It looks as if he is about to commit suicide by throwing himself into a lake, or fishing for the moon in the lake.
In fact, it was written in Xiao Yuxue's previous letter.
Grandma Jinhua’s Biyun Cave Mansion took advantage of the strong water vapor in the surrounding environment to divide the formation into two phases.
A bright mansion and a dark mansion.
There are also people living in the Ming Mansion, but they are all less important disciples and servants. The Dark Mansion is where Grandma Jinhua and they live.
The two-phase realm seems extremely mysterious, but after understanding its principles, you know that it is just a more mysterious water illusion method.
Lu Cheng threw himself into the moon in the lake and went deep underwater for a while.
Undercurrents flowed under the lake. When Lu Cheng walked out of the lake again, another more exquisite stone palace appeared in front of him. This was the real Biyundong cave.
But Lu Cheng frowned slightly after coming out:
Because it was too quiet, if there were still people in the Biyundong cave in front of him, he should come out to deal with him at this time, no matter whether he was an enemy or a friend.
As far as Lu Cheng knows, there is only one kind of person in the world who can be so quiet: the dead. I hope that the cave is not full of people like this.
Entering the cave, there are no guards, no restrictions, and everything is dark, but there is a cold and deathly atmosphere in the palace.
In the letter, Xiao Yuxue said that Biyun Cave Mansion is a very beautiful place.
In the early morning, the sea and sky are the same color. Sometimes the clouds outside the sky will be dyed blue under the reflection of the water color, and the scenery is wonderful.
Maybe it was because Lu Cheng arrived at night, so he didn’t see the beautiful scenery in Biyun Cave Mansion, only corpses all over the ground.
Ice corpse.
They fell to the ground, their bodies completely frozen, and neither the Qiankun Bag nor the magical artifacts were taken away from them. This showed that the person who took action had a very high status and had no interest in searching for the money.
But generally speaking, such a high-status monk would not bother to take action against a low-level monk unless he was offended.
“Perhaps he wants to hide some secret.”
Lu Cheng whispered to himself, as if he was walking in a huge tomb. If it was in the previous life, I would have been so frightened that I would have crawled away.
But in this life, I have been cultivating Taoism for nearly a hundred years, honed my mind and power, and gained a better understanding of the cycle of life and death, so naturally I will no longer be afraid.
Speaking of ghosts, the number of ghosts in the Ten Thousand Soul Banners carried by Lu Cheng is definitely much more than what is left here.
Lu Cheng walked inside step by step, heading to the main hall area of Biyun Cave. At the same time, his consciousness spread and he carefully observed the face of every female corpse on the ground. He was a little afraid of seeing Xiao Yuhong. , Sister Xiao Yuxue.
While Lu Cheng was concentrating on his search, suddenly, at the edge of his consciousness, a white shadow flashed past.
The escape is as fast as an illusion.
But Lu Cheng was a monk who was extremely confident in himself, and he quickly chased in the direction of the white shadow.
It's just that the opponent's escape method is really fast. Although Lu Cheng's escape method is not slow. He has practiced the Qi Refining Technique of the Xiantian School and can learn a few Five Elements Steps to keep him from being slow, but in the end he couldn't catch up.
"If your cultivation level exceeds mine, why run away? If your cultivation level is not as good as mine, how can you be so fast?" Unable to catch up, Lu Cheng could only calm down again and continue searching for Biyun. Cave.
Except for the cave itself, we are still observing every corpse on the ground. At this time, the floor of the cave is covered with ice and snow, and frost has condensed and will not melt for a long time.
But Lu Cheng could still see some abnormalities in the buildings of this cave. In some of the architectural decorations in this Taoist cave, there were some flying goddesses in brocade.
Their faces are peaceful, their arms are raised lightly, and their long skirts are flowing, as if they want to lead all living beings through the hustle and bustle of the world and reach the paradise world.
Others in the Tongxuan world might not be able to see anything, but Lu Cheng could tell that this was the flying goddess of Buddhism. But in this world, the orthodox Buddhist heritage has been cut off.
None of the twelve top sects has a Buddhist heritage. Only the Heart Buddha Temple and the White Bone Temple among the sixteen evil sects in the world have some shadows of Buddhist practice, but they have been led by the desert island in the East to chant crooked scriptures. of.
"It is possible that Grandma Jinhua is a Buddhist cultivator." Lu Cheng did not have too much prejudice against Buddhism and Taoism.
This matter is not the focus of his trip.
Exploring the storage warehouse, there were even some spiritual objects and materials in it. Lu Cheng collected all these properties.
If Xueyulou really found the Xiao sisters before him, he would have returned to poverty overnight. Although Lu Cheng never felt that he would be short of spiritual stones and property with the sword in his hand, it would be good to have more foundation.
If you can’t spend it, feed it to the Golden Silkworm Gu, which will eat the ore.
After walking around for a few times, we came to the main hall of the cave. The most dead people were here, and even the corpses were lying on top of each other. Lu Cheng had already decided to cremate them when he finally left.
Although they would like to be buried in peace, given the cause of their death, they may prefer to go away in a warmer place.
“Huh?”
When Lu Cheng scanned the face of a female cultivator in the hall with his spiritual consciousness, he hummed lightly and quickly walked over.
He felt that the figure of this female cultivator was a bit strange. She was already dead, but she covered the ground with her hands as if she wanted to cover something. This was a rather uncomfortable movement.
This is a pretty female nun. Even though she has been frozen to death, you can still see some facial features. When she takes away the palm that is almost frozen with the ground, there is indeed blood. Words: "Heaven...Buddha!?"
The first word is still clear, but the second word is a little distorted, but combined with the decorative style of Biyun Cave Mansion, Lu Cheng can still see that word.
“What does this mean? Heavenly Buddha?”
Lu Cheng began to think about all the classics he had read, and after a while he determined that he had never read or heard any relevant legends.
At this moment, behind Lu Cheng, a white shadow floated gently like a ghost, approaching continuously.
But when the distance between the two sides reached a certain level, Lu Cheng suddenly turned around and fired his sword. From his sleeves, it seemed as if a blazing pale fire suddenly spurted out, as if it was about to ignite and burn the entire cave.
The white shadow seemed startled, and then retreated quickly.
Every step of this white shadow is extremely mysterious, and within a few steps she is turned upside down and disillusioned, almost making those who lock her with their spiritual consciousness feel as if they are about to vomit blood, as if they have entered an extremely chaotic time and space.
But the light of the sword in Lu Cheng's hand changed, and the pale fire suddenly turned into aqua blue.
The sword intention has also advanced from violent extremes to sudden twists and turns, Five Elements Sword Escape, Water Fantasy Sword.
The Fire Sword Escape is the strongest, and the Water Illusion Sword Escape is unparalleled.
Lu Cheng himself was proficient in the Five Elements Sword Intention, and he just used the water sword illusion to evolve the Fire Sword Intention, causing the opponent's response to go wrong, and several steps of the arrangement were in vain.
Clang.
Lu Cheng's figure suddenly appeared from another direction, stabbing the white shadow with a sword. The white shadow suddenly used his sword to block it, but it was also stuck to Lu Cheng and could no longer escape. .
The two sides exchanged swords, entangled, and the sword energy that escaped suddenly tore apart the pavilion beside them.
Then he stopped, because no matter how close Lu Cheng's sword was, it was almost touching the side of the white figure's neck. In terms of swordsmanship alone, this person has already lost one move. If he doesn't want to fight with swords, the winner will be decided at this point.
"...Huh, Five Elements Sword Lucheng, the changes in the Five Elements Sword Intent are so exquisite, I think there is almost no one in the world who is as good as you."
What appeared in front of Lu Cheng was a female cultivator dressed in white Taoist robes and dressed as a man, but she was unusually beautiful and refined.
The vastness is as if Feng Xu is riding the wind without knowing where it stops; the flutteringness is as if he is left alone in the world, becoming an immortal and ascending to immortality.
Gu Qinghong, the most outstanding true disciple of Eight Views in the contemporary era.
Although Lu Cheng is used to covering his appearance with various demonic appearances when he goes out, but Gu Qinghong presided over the Eight Scenery Dharma Assembly back then. Can't hide it anymore.
“Fellow Taoist Gu, why are you here?”
Lu Cheng had a smile on his face, but he did not let go of the Jinghong Flying Sword in his hand. The edge of the sword was still faintly covering several important meridians on Gu Qinghong's body.
"I have been studying elixirs and traveling around the world. In my early years, my master had met Grandma Jinhua several times, so I was ordered to come and pay homage to my senior and listen to his teachings. What? Could it be that Fellow Daoist Lu thought that this tragedy was committed by someone below? "
Gu Qinghong smiled bitterly. Between her and Lu Cheng, ten out of ten people in the world would regard Lu Cheng as a murder suspect.
“Fellow Daoist Gu should have come one step ahead of me, so why didn’t you show up to meet me before?”
“If it were Fellow Daoist Lu, you would show up to meet me in this situation. ?”
"Then what did you do when you approached me just now?"
"I am not as meticulous as fellow Daoist Lu in my investigation, so I missed important clues. I just wanted to see the clues clearly, so I subconsciously approached."
Gu Qinghong lied in this sentence. She thought that the Eight Views escape method was so exquisite that she would not be easily discovered, and even if she was discovered, she could escape unscathed.
But he didn’t expect that not only would he be discovered, but his true form would also be revealed under the opponent’s superb swordsmanship.
After a long while, Lu Cheng finally took back the Jinghong Feijian. In fact, he did not think that he would do such a thing with the reputation accumulated by the Eight Views for thousands of years.
Lu Cheng did not worship authority, but the small Biyun Cave Mansion was really not worth it.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, what did you just see?"
"Heavenly Buddha." Lu Cheng hesitated for a moment, then finally said it.
The monks of the Eight Views are well-read and knowledgeable about heaven and humans. In this aspect, they have a much deeper foundation than the Palace of Incarnations of Beasts.
"Tianfo? It is said that in the previous era, the Buddhist Tianfo Sect was inherited in the land of the horizon. Unexpectedly, it turns out that the land of the horizon refers to the southeastern sea area."
Sure enough, after Gu Qinghong got the important clues, he quickly revealed the secret that Lu Cheng didn't know.
The Xiao sisters came to the southeastern sea in order to worship the Seven Treasures Demon Refining Pagoda and understand the essence of Buddhism. At that time, Lu Cheng thought that the Xiao sisters were going to the Heart Buddha Temple. The Boneyard looks for opportunities to catch some autumn wind and learn some rules.
Now it seems that the master has made very appropriate arrangements for his two daughters. Grandma Jinhua is a contemporary Buddhist master.
I just don’t know how the situation developed into what it is now.
Gu Qinghong did not observe the corpses carefully one by one, so he missed important clues.
Lu Cheng didn't have Gu Qinghong's knowledge, so he didn't know how to reason if he had clues. But now that all the clues have been completed, he only knows that the southeast sea area was a land of the horizon in the previous era. It may have some connection with Tianfo Sect, but further down I don't know how to push it down.
Lu Cheng did not say anything more to Gu Qinghong, but turned around and entered the living room of Biyun Cave Mansion, searching one by one.
He wants to find the residence of the Xiao sisters in the cave, and then find some personal items that are commonly used, and bring them back to Star Observation City to give them to the elders of Tianji Mansion for divination.
The clues are interrupted, and now he can only think of this method.
The Xiao sisters are the beloved daughters of real people and guests. No matter how unkind Grandma Jinhua is, she cannot arrange for the two sisters to live with her disciples. At least a quiet and independent monastery will be prepared. In addition, the two sisters live together, so it is not difficult to find them as long as you have patience.
After tea time, Lu Cheng found the Xiao sisters' boudoir. After entering, there was a thin layer of dust inside, but nothing was taken away. It was obvious that he left in a hurry.
Lu Cheng took two sachets, wooden combs and other items from the two rooms, then walked out of the monastery and began to deal with the corpses in Biyun Cave.
He placed the corpses one by one in the central courtyard, and then lit them with fire. Of course, the Qiankun bags and other items that were no longer useful to them were put away.
“At that time, the Heavenly Lord who saves suffering is everywhere in the ten directions, always using his majestic power to save all living beings and escape from the lost path. All living beings are unaware, just like seeing the sun and the moon blindly. I am too ignorant. , the leader is boundless. The source of the immortal is beyond the reach, and the waves are naturally clear. They all inherit the power of the Great Dao to subjugate the demonic spirits..."
Lu Cheng cremated everyone, and then sat in front of them and recited "Tai Shang Cave Xuan Ling Bao Tianzun said about salvation." "Kumiao Sutra", Gu Qinghong saw these in his eyes. Seeing this, the true successor of the Eight Views couldn't help but have a flash of appreciation in his eyes.
So she simply sat down and recited salvation scriptures with Lu Cheng.
In the world of monks, death is not the end. In countless reincarnations, the soul gradually transcends and reaches the other side.
The chanting of monks with profound magical powers like Lu Cheng and Gu Qinghong will give strength to the dead souls and reduce suffering.
