In the Land of Thousand Buddhas, the ruins of Yichan Temple.
"Cough, cough!..."
Xu Taiping climbed out of an abandoned well, breathing heavily.
Because the insect hole in the Star-Zhaing Platform happened to be connected to the bottom of the deep well in Yichan Temple, Xu Taiping was caught off guard and choked on several times of water.
"In the insect den, the magic seems to have failed."
Xu Taiping wiped his mouth and said to Fairy Lingyue in his heart.
"That's right."
Fairy Lingyue responded.
"Then Shang Jiu won't catch up, right?"
Xu Taiping found a stone and sat down. While doing his exercises and regulating his breath, he confirmed to Fairy Lingyue.
Even now, Shang Jiu's terrifying sword skills still frightened him.
"He may not know how to open an insect hole, and even if he knows, the opening time of the same insect hole must be more than six hours apart."
Fairy Lingyue was not worried about this.
"Six hours, almost."
Xu Taiping nodded.
Then he took out Huangque's map and confirmed the distance between Yichan Temple and Langxiaoling Tianyin Temple.
"Sixty miles?"
After roughly calculating the distance between the two, Xu Taiping felt happy.
According to the estimated location on the map, the distance between Star Reaching Platform and Wolf Roaring Ridge was originally at least six thousand miles, and it would take a Tongxuan Realm monk three days to wield a sword.
"Sister Lingyue, let's set off."
Xu Taiping stuffed a Qi Gathering Pill into his mouth and stood up immediately.
Thinking of the scenes he saw while wandering around the world, his eyes became a little anxious.
If what he saw at that time was true, then Senior Brother Qingxiao's good friend Chen Hao might not be able to hold on for long.
"Taiping, did you see something when you broke through the Tongxuan realm?"
Fairy Lingyue immediately guessed the reason why Xu Taiping was so anxious.
So Xu Taiping used the short distance to quickly travel across the snowfield, and while wandering around in the world, he saw several scenes, and briefly talked about them with Fairy Lingyue.
"You have never been out of the Shangqing Realm, why can you see the battlefield of immortals and demons in the Sumeru Realm? And that red cave is clearly the Jiuyou Demon Cave. How can you, a young monk in the Tongxuan Realm, see such a thing? ."
Inside the gourd, Fairy Lingyue, who was deep in thought, murmured to herself.
"Sister Lingyue, you also think that these are not illusions, and what happened at the Yin Palace that day is definitely not an illusion."
Xu Taiping didn't want to delve into the reason. He just wanted to save people now.
"Well, if what you see later is consistent with what you saw when you were wandering around the world, then we have to treat the other two visions you saw with caution."
Fairy Lingyue agreed.
"By the way, I saw that your eyes were covered when you came out. Did something go wrong during the breakthrough?"
Fairy Lingyue finally asked a question that she had been holding back for a long time.
So Xu Taiping told Fairy Lingyue about the Yin God's fight with the demon from outside the territory and then giving him a double eye as a gift.
"Pity."
Unexpectedly, Fairy Lingyue looked regretful after hearing this.
"Why is it a pity?"
Xu Taiping was a little confused.
"In ancient times, you could be considered a demigod just by looking at this eye, but now the ancient gods only have some traces of their divine power left in the wilderness. Once you leave the wilderness, you will only have a little bit of spiritual energy left with your double eyes. ”
Fairy Lingyue explained.
In fact, one of the biggest reasons that made her feel pity, which she hadn't told Xu Taiping yet, was that after reaching a certain realm, this kind of sacred thing was needed to break through.
Because of this, many monks ultimately stopped moving forward.
"As long as I open these eyes, the Soul Crying Syndrome will occur. I'm afraid I won't be able to use it even in this wilderness."
Xu Taiping smiled bitterly.
He didn't feel much regret. He was very satisfied that he could successfully break through Tongxuan.
"The next time you open your eyes, hold the gentian stone whole in your mouth to reduce the pain of this symptom."
Fairy Lingyue reminded Xu Taiping.
Xu Taiping was delighted when he heard this.
If the ability of this double pupil can be used, it will undoubtedly be a great help to him.
However, Fairy Lingyue's next sentence made him fall into a decision-
"The gentian stone consumed for one use is equivalent to thirty pots of gentian wine."
You know, when he is looking at the netherworld, he cannot consume much gentian wine in a year.
After the two of them chatted for a while about the issues that need to be paid attention to when stabilizing the realm after breaking through the Tongxuan realm, Xu Taiping suddenly asked Fairy Lingyue in a serious tone:
"Sister Lingyue, if my senior brother is really planted with the Bodhi Fruit, is there any way to resolve it?"
Because Fairy Lingyue said before that once the Bodhi seed is planted, it is difficult to pull it out, so he never dared to ask this question.
"This requires him to persist for three months, but as far as I know, the Bodhi Seed not only devours the monk's essence, blood and true energy, but also devours the soul. So even if he survives for three months, it's hard to say whether your second senior brother is Dugu Qingxiao or not. "
Fairy Lingyue sighed.
According to the records in the ancient wild books she had read, when the Kingdom of Thousand Buddhas still existed, the Bodhi seed was a highly poisonous substance that required the abbot and Zen master with profound Buddhist teachings to resolve it himself.
Now that the Thousand Buddhas Kingdom is in ruins, where can we find those Zen masters?
"Is there really no other way?"
Xu Taiping asked reluctantly.
"Is it true that you really want to save your senior brother if there is still a chance?"
Fairy Lingyue hesitated for a moment, and finally asked.
"yes."
Xu Taiping nodded vigorously.
"Even if it puts you in danger of life and death, you won't hesitate?"
Fairy Lingyue asked again.
"certainly."
Xu Taiping nodded again without hesitation.
If the person he wanted to save was Huang Que, he might think about it, but if it was the second senior brother he wanted to save, he wouldn't even think about it.
In Qingxuan, Second Senior Brother and Senior Sister Linglong are family to him.
"In addition to the equality of all living beings, there is one precept left in the Thousand Buddhas Kingdom, which is called Shura to save evil."
Fairy Lingyue replied.
"What is Shura who saves evil?"
Xu Taiping asked in his mind while continuing to run.
"The ancient Buddha Kasyapa of the Thousand Buddhas Kingdom made a great wish in order for the people of the Buddha's Kingdom to do righteous deeds. As long as he can bear all the malice on behalf of others, he can make a vow to him."
Fairy Lingyue explained.
