The old monk had obviously used a real killing move. Just when Lin Yan was about to fight for his life, the former's movements suddenly stagnated.
"It came so fast!" the old monk shouted.
Lin Yan also felt an extremely powerful aura approaching rapidly in the distance. Combined with the old monk's reaction, it was obvious that he was a little wary of the incoming person.
The Dharma image dissipated, the old monk retreated, and a voice came: "You are lucky this time!"
His figure disappeared quickly, and then the surviving Yashas flapped their wings, stirred up strong winds, and the black tornado quickly moved away.
Lin Yan slowly landed on the ground. The battle just now was not long, but the consumption was huge. If it hadn't been for something unexpected in the end, and with all the hard work, the outcome would have been hard to say.
Before he could adjust his breath to regain his strength, the tyrannical aura was getting closer and closer. Lin Yan's feet flashed with lightning, and then he quickly flew away in the opposite direction to the old monk.
In any case, Mingya and the others must have been out of danger now. The old monk was not chasing them in the direction of the black tornado, but just to avoid the strong man who was coming.
In fact, Lin Yan and the others were not the target of the old monk from the beginning. The latter's real target should be the soul boy, and the others were just affected and suffered unreasonable disasters.
The strong man who came here should be coming for the old monk, but Lin Yan couldn't reveal his identity here. Most of the people who come are experts from the Buddhist sect. Suddenly finding a strange Xiantian realm expert here will definitely arouse the other party's vigilance, which is not conducive to the next action.
Shortly after Lin Yan left, a young monk in white robes appeared at the place where Lin Yan and the old monk had fought.
He clasped his hands together, his whole body exuded an extremely powerful aura, and his face was shrouded in a hazy divine light, making it difficult to recognize his true appearance.
"The aura of the innate realm! Who is fighting here?" The young monk looked puzzled.
Except for the broken arms and limbs of the Yaksha clan who were killed by Lin Yan before, except for those that were chopped into pieces by the strong wind in the black tornado, the rest had been devoured by the Yaksha clan, so they did not leave many traces on the spot.
But the young monk finally found some clues from the residue at the scene, among which there was a strong bloody color that could not be easily covered up.
He determined the direction, and after a slight hesitation, he pursued the old monk in the direction in which he had fled.
For the young monk, although the sudden appearance of a strange master is worthy of attention, the top priority is to catch up with the familiar aura and confirm some things.
After Lin Yan flew far away and was sure that no one was chasing him, he stopped and breathed a sigh of relief.
Thanks to the power of "Mo Jue" and "Dead Wood Jue", the vitality consumed in Lin Yan's body was recovering at an alarming rate, and he soon returned to his peak state.
Recalling the battle just now, although the old monk was from the Buddhist sect, he raised ferocious beasts like the Flying Yaksha and allowed them to devour the flesh and blood of mortals. He did not look like an enlightened monk.
But thinking about it carefully, the old monk showed up because he had underestimated the situation and did not expect the variable Lin Yan. Otherwise, the Yasha tribe would have solved all the troubles long ago and would not have exposed the existence of the old monk at all!
"Sure enough, God's calculation is better than that of man!" Lin Yan sighed unconsciously.
Then, he suddenly remembered that the monk Jueyuan who was next to the soul boy before was a disciple of the Buddha Heart Sect, so the one who wanted to attack them should be the Shingon Sect!
No, it is also possible that the monks within the Buddha Heart Sect took action, or other forces within the Buddha Sect intervened.
In the final analysis, the reason for all this still has to be traced back to the dispute between Mahayana and Mahayana Buddhism!
According to Lin Yan's judgment, even if some people within the Buddhist sect support Mahayana Buddhism, this will ultimately affect the original interests of the Buddhist sect and even shake its foundation, which will inevitably lead to a violent backlash.
But now, the battle surrounding the soul boy made Lin Yan understand that this may not only involve a future Buddhist disciple, but also has a deeper content.
But after all, these things cannot be explained clearly by Lin Yan thinking here. The top priority is to meet with Ming Ya and others first, and then make plans.
As for Jue Yuan, who fled with the soul boy when he saw something was wrong, Lin Yan had secretly remembered him, and after they met, he asked Hua Gu to investigate this person's whereabouts.
According to Lin Yan's inference, after Hua Gu and others left, they would definitely go to the nearest city to settle down, then explore for traces and wait for his contact.
Although they were following the caravan, Lin Yan and Hua Gu had done some route planning before, and now it came in handy.
The scorching sun hung high in the sky, and the terrifying temperature was scorching the earth. Lin Yan felt that the sand under his feet was getting hot.
Without sand camels and other means of transportation, walking in the desert would be difficult and painful!
Fortunately, Lin Yan's strength is not weak. The majestic vitality covers the body surface, which can effectively isolate the high temperature. If it were an ordinary person, he might not be able to survive for a few hours in such an environment.
It was difficult to tell the direction in the desert, and Lin Yan had to identify it for a long time before finding the right direction to move forward. According to what is shown on the map, there should be a small oasis in front of this route, and then there is a city called Xiaowan.
According to the original route of the caravan, the next destination should actually be Xiaowan City. Lin Yan deduced that Hua Gu and others should be there.
The map was actually relatively rough, which also caused Lin Yan to deviate from the direction several times during the period, and finally found the oasis.
It is actually not easy to find such an oasis in the vast desert. Although it does not cover a large area, the pure green color makes the eyes of travelers in the desert brighten up, and they feel as if they are being sweetened by the sweetness in their hearts. The clear spring is nourishing and refreshing!
"I'm really thirsty!" Lin Yan thought to himself.
He came all the way at a high speed. Even with the vitality to protect his body, the consumption of physical strength and the loss of water were unavoidable. Even a warrior in the Xiantian realm would not be able to endure it for a long time.
After a brief inspection to confirm that there was no danger, Lin Yan stepped into the oasis.
The vegetation is lush and green, and you feel a sense of coolness when walking in it. There are even small animals in the forest, and they are not too aggressive. Such a pure land in the desert is really incredible!
"There seems to be the sound of water ahead?" Given Lin Yan's level, his ears are extremely sharp. Not long after he stepped into the forest, he heard the sound of gurgling water.
With the water source so close, Lin Yan felt a little thirsty. He could bear it before, but after hearing the sound of water flowing, he couldn't wait any longer!
At that moment, Lin Yan moved quickly towards the place where the sound of water flow came from.
After passing through the jungle, Lin Yan saw a deep pool of clear spring. The breeze blew, and the water rippled on it, reflecting the surrounding reflections and dotted with sparkling waves.
Lin Yan stepped forward quickly and couldn't wait to lie down on the edge of the pool, holding the water in his hands and drinking in big gulps.
"It's so sweet!" The pores on Lin Yan's body were expressing relief after a long drought.
After drinking to his fill, Lin Yan also recovered from his dry state. Walking in the desert, water source was indeed extremely important.
He took out the water bag and filled it up. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard something strange coming from the depths of the pool.
"What's the sound?" Lin Yan suddenly became alert.
The sound of water rushed, and then a huge figure of more than ten feet rose into the sky, staring directly at Lin Yan with huge and deep pupils.
The latter's Adam's apple rolled unconsciously, then he swallowed his saliva and said, "What the hell is this?"
I saw that the body of the huge creature in front of me was indigo blue, and its surface was covered with hard scales, exuding an icy sheen.
Its pupils are triangular, and the eyes inside are cold. It seems to be a snake-like beast, but it lives in the water. Fins can be seen on the back of its head and other parts of its body, which is an obvious aquatic characteristic.
After the man and the beast looked at each other for a moment, the snake-like beast launched an attack on Lin Yan, causing a large splash of water, without giving Lin Yan a chance to react.
"No way! I'm just drinking water, why are you so stingy!" Lin Yan complained in his heart, but he had no intention of continuing to tangle with this ferocious beast, so he just left.
But the snake-like ferocious beast was obviously unforgiving. It spit out water arrows from its mouth and shot towards Lin Yan, not wanting to let him go.
"You asked for this!" Lin Yan grasped the black knife in his hand, and then suddenly slashed it out. Since the other party chooses to take action, he will not be beaten passively.
"Slay the dragon!"
As the sound of dragon roar sounded, a golden dragon shadow rushed towards the snake-like beast. The latter opened its mouth again and spat out, and a huge water column appeared and collided with the golden dragon shadow.
boom!
The two exploded at the moment of contact, and countless water splashes flew, forming a brilliant rainbow under the sunlight.
When the scattered water splash blocked his sight, Lin Yan's figure flashed and disappeared instantly. When he reappeared, he was behind the snake-like beast and slashed towards its head with a knife.
The snake-like beast also quickly turned around, opened its bloody mouth and bit Lin Yan away.
At this critical moment, a voice suddenly came: "Stop!"
The snake-like ferocious beast stopped attacking the moment it heard the sound, and Lin Yan stopped his slashing blade and turned his attention to the place where the sound came from.
From the depths of the forest, a woman in a white gauze skirt walked out. Her steps were light and her figure was graceful. She didn't wear any makeup, but she was elegant and refined, just like a fairy unstained by the mortal world above the nine heavens!
With a gentle move of her bare hands, the snake-like beast, which was originally extremely ferocious, quickly swam in front of her and stood with its head hanging down, looking extremely docile.
The woman nodded lightly at Lin Yan, smiled, and said, "I'm sorry for frightening my little friend!"
