However, it was too early for the two of them to be happy. Just as Lin Bing was about to reach out to pick the exorcism grass, he felt the ground beneath his feet shaking. The next second, a thick branch sprang out from the ground. If Lin Bing hadn't been able to hide, Quick, I almost got stabbed through him.
"It's a tree demon!"
Zhiqiu recognized it at a glance and drew out his weapon to chop down the branch.
Zhiqiu fought fiercely with the monster, and every sword strike and palm blow were accompanied by violent collisions.
The sound of the fight echoed around the temple, causing leaves to fall.
The tree demons in the temple seemed to be completely awakened and disturbed by the movement. Their branches gathered from all directions and joined the battle.
Dryads have a unique attack method. They wave their branches like huge whips, making the air scream.
Although Lin Bing and Zhi Qiu had high magical powers, they were still powerless under the combined attack of the tree demons.
Lin Bing's back was hit by a branch, and a deep blood mark instantly appeared.
He gritted his teeth, endured the pain, and continued to wave his sword to resist.
Zhiqiu was hit in the abdomen by another branch because he couldn't avoid it, and he bent down in pain.
The situation is getting more and more serious, and both Lin Bing and Zhiqiu understand that if they cannot come up with countermeasures as soon as possible, they are likely to die here.
The two exchanged glances and reached a consensus instantly.
They began to use the surrounding environment to deal with the tree monsters.
Lin Bing used the pillars of the temple as cover and kept moving, trying to distract the tree demon.
Zhiqiu saw the right opportunity and launched a fierce attack on the tree demon. Although both of them were injured, their fighting spirit was still strong.
But this tree demon was far more difficult to deal with than they thought. Lin Bing's back was hit hard by the tree demon's branch again, and his clothes were dyed red with blood.
Zhiqiu was hit so hard that he flew backwards and fell to the ground.
Just when the two of them were in dire straits, Master Xuankong suddenly appeared and immediately came to help.
He raised his staff and smashed the branches of the tree demon one by one.
Xuankong then quickly came to Lin Bing and Zhiqiu and treated their wounds.
Under Xuan Kong's treatment, their injuries gradually stabilized.
"Thank you, Master, for arriving in time." Lin Bing said with emotion.
"Yes, if master hadn't come to our aid, we would have been in trouble." Zhiqiu said with lingering fear.
"You have tried your best. Don't blame yourself. This monster is too dangerous!" Master Xuankong comforted, "Remember, we cannot take it lightly when facing monsters and strange beasts."
"Master's lesson is that we must keep it in mind." Lin Bing and Zhiqiu responded in unison.
Then Master Xuankong suddenly gave Lin Bing a very meaningful look. The master's eyes were very deep, as if he could see through people's bodies.
In front of Master Xuankong, all the secrets seemed to be hidden, which made Lin Bing very panicked. After all, the master had seen him before.
If he recognizes himself, it will be troublesome if word spreads.
Fortunately, the master just looked at him for a long time, but didn't say anything else. He didn't seem to recognize Lin Bing. He just felt that the person looked slightly familiar, which made Lin Bing relax a little.
After a moment, Master Xuankong withdrew his eyes and signaled the two of them to meditate and rest first.
After resting and meditating for a while, Master Xuankong suddenly stood up again and asked his apprentice Zhiqiu to clean the temple with him.
Seeing this, Lin Bing decided to clean up with them. After all, Master Xuankong had just helped him. At the same time, he and his apprentice Zhiqiu had a very happy conversation, and together they helped each other kill so many monsters.
So it's appropriate to help them clean the temple together, and you can also accumulate some Buddhist karma for yourself.
But when the door to the temple room opened, Lin Bing was scared out directly, because the scene in the temple was so terrifying, and the entire ruined temple was filled with black shadows.
There were at least twenty or thirty black shadows crammed into a small house. Lin Bing clearly remembered that there were no such black shadows in the previous houses.
But I don’t know why there are so many of them in this house.
Originally, Lin Bing wanted to remind Zhiqiu and Master Xuankong to be careful, because he had witnessed the black shadow devouring people before, which meant that this kind of black shadow was still very scary.
Although these two people are Buddhist monks, they may not be able to see this dark shadow.
But then Lin Bing was surprised to find that both Master Xuankong and Zhiqiu could see black shadows.
When they saw these black shadows, although they were not as frightened as Lin Bing, they immediately retreated, but they paused obviously, and then Master Xuankong clasped his hands together and recited a Buddha's name!
"Amitabha!"
Xuan Kong then took out a black gourd, then grabbed a black shadow and stuffed it into the gourd.
The black shadow screamed several times and tried to escape, but could not escape from Master Xuankong's huge palm.
And his apprentice Zhiqiu was not idle either. He also grabbed a black shadow and immediately stuffed it into his master's golden gourd.
The black shadow was so frightened that he wanted to run away, but at this moment, Xuan Kong raised his golden Zen staff high, and then knocked it heavily on the ground.
The huge sound scared all the black figures back, and even stunned them directly to the ground, unable to continue to escape.
Xuan Kong just hit the ground, which not only frightened the black shadow, but also frightened Lin Bing. The shock made his eardrums hurt, and he could only cover his ears tightly to avoid being affected by the residual sound waves.
It turns out that what Master Xuankong said about cleaning up the temple was not just cleaning the dust, but also cleaning out all the black shadows and monsters in the temple.
After they eliminated all the shadows in this temple, Lin Bing immediately said impatiently.
"Master, Zhiqiu, that's great. I didn't expect that you, master and disciple, could also see this black shadow. Originally, I thought I was the only one in the world who could see it."
"That's of course. Master and I are not blind, so it's normal for us to see black shadows."
Zhiqiu said matter-of-factly. He had been able to see black shadows a long time ago, so he had long been accustomed to it and didn't think there was anything special about this ability.
However, Master Xuankong looked at Lin Bing very unexpectedly and said.
"I didn't expect that the little benefactor was actually a discerning person. This kind of monster is indeed something that few people can see in this world. Only a very few discerning people can see it."
"Monster? Master, are you saying that this black shadow is actually a monster?"
"That's right, the lower realm is damaged, this is the demon that appears from the will of heaven..."
Master Lin Bing nodded slowly and started to explain to Lin Bing, but he suddenly stopped mid-sentence.
Master Xuankong stopped talking in the middle of his words. This made Lin Bing extremely anxious. It whetted his appetite and he immediately urged him anxiously.
"Master, a demon has appeared in the will of heaven. What is behind this? Tell us quickly. You can't just tell half of it."
