Bang! Bang! Bang!
As the bell rang, disciples from each academy poured out one after another, and then hurriedly or slowly rushed to the nearest Buddhist temple.
Cao Zhe followed the team and soon arrived outside the nearest Heavenly King's Hall.
There are already eminent monks from the temple sitting under the hall.
As a large number of disciples sat down neatly, the morning prayer chanting class began.
Half an hour later, the morning class ended and the disciples from each academy dispersed.
Cao Zhe pricked up his ears and listened deliberately, and then heard the topics discussed by some young monks in groups.
"Did Dayue report early? Yesterday was the day when the Jianghu Dragon and Tiger Rankings were reorganized and announced. Which of our Shaolin Temple brothers is on the list?"
"Have you heard? The golden bell of our Shaolin Temple was pushed to the thirty-sixth level by the Wuxiang monk who broke out a few years ago. Rumor has it that it is strong enough to withstand artillery fire."
"Qiu Qianren made a seventh appointment with Northern Beggar Hong Qigong to compete for the title of the best palm in the world. However, this time, they were all defeated by the great annihilation palm of mad demon Yang Guo. Qiu Qianren died on the spot, and Hong Qigong He was rescued by the old naughty boy Zhou Botong."
"Old naughty boy? Where is the old naughty boy? That's the old devil boy. If Hong Qigong falls into Zhou Botong's hands, he might as well be beaten to death by Yang Guo."
"Regarding this matter, it seems... Emperor Wu of Dayue has sent out iron guards to hunt down Zhou Botong. Hong Qigong is his master after all. Although it is rumored that they have parted ways long ago, Emperor Wu cannot sit idly by."
Cao Zhe listened to the conversation of the young monks and felt his mind was in chaos.
Zhang Junbao was originally a cleaner at the Sutra Pavilion and was not very interested in the various news outside the temple. Therefore, in Zhang Junbao's memory, there is some relevant content, but not much.
Cao Zhe also thought that those contestants who entered the world of Condor Heroes first would definitely work hard to improve their personal scores.
However, just based on the few words exchanged by these young monks, it is not difficult to conclude that this world has been seriously modified by magic.
From the characters themselves to the content of the world, they have been distorted to a thousand miles.
"It's not surprising that both Yang Guo and the old naughty boy became evil heretics. The character background of these two people is not very orthodox or pure chivalrous and righteous people. They were just infected by the people around them and experienced some things. Only then do they each have their own heroic names. Now that their identities have been replaced by competitors, there is no ideological restraint, and they only maintain some biased character settings, and it is not surprising that they are slipping into the devil's path. "
"In twenty years, there have been 10,000 competitors. It is not uncommon for some of them to take the opportunity to develop thermal weapons. After all, ordinary Jianghu people who are not strong in force are as vulnerable as ordinary people in the face of powerful thermal weapons."
"As for Emperor Wu of Dayue... it should be Guo Jing?" After listening to it for a few more times, Cao Zhe confirmed his guess.
"Some people dig deep into the art of martial arts, such as the monk Wuxiang who broke out of the door. There are also people who expand their territory and change the world, such as Guo Jing. There are also people who use their own force to show off their evil, such as Yang Guo and Zhou Botong."
"After twenty years of elimination, all the competitors who can still remain in this world are using their own methods to obtain higher evaluations as much as possible. As for the specific scoring, it depends on the judges of the arena. . Generally speaking, it seems that the greater the spread and influence, the more obvious the changes to the world, or the more competitors in the same world that are directly... hunted, the higher the evaluation will be."
"The easiest way to get first place is to kill almost half of the other competitors. But the easiest is also the hardest. After all, there are many competitors with huge investments. They have strong strength since they entered the world. If you are more careful, it is almost impossible to kill them. There are also some timid competitors who choose the identity of an unknown person and then hide it, which is also difficult to find and kill. As for the big killer, It will appear too conspicuous and easily eliminated by the concentrated fire." Cao Zhe followed the direction in his memory and walked towards the Sutra Pavilion while thinking in his mind.
What Cao Zhe didn't know at this time was that his guess was indeed good.
In the early days of the opening of the world, the competitor who spent a huge price to obtain the identity of Ouyang Feng went crazy.
The contestant, who was already troubled by madness, transformed into a martial arts god of death and slaughtered everyone with Ouyang Feng's powerful strength.
In the end, the contestants who obtained the identities of Guo Jing, Hong Qigong, Huang Yaoshi, Wuse Zen Master, and Qiu Qianren were surrounded and killed on the top of Mount Huashan.
Since then, no other competitor has thought about using his own strength to kill the entire world, and then force everyone to win the first place in this world competition.
Looking at the eighteen bronze figures surrounding the Sutra Pavilion, Cao Zhe instantly felt a chilling atmosphere that was definitely different from the pure place of Buddhism.
According to memory, Cao Zhe used a unique way to walk forward or backward, left and right, across the field in front of the main gate of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion.
Standard avoidance of all traps.
The square-faced monk blocking the doorway reached out to scratch Cao Zhe's body. Finally, he used his palm to start from the back of his head and move forward inch by inch.
It seems that they are using this method to verify whether Cao Zhe's identity is fake.
"This is also caused by the contestants!"
"Although the Quanzhen Sect is now known as the largest sect in the world, Shaolin martial arts and Shaolin heritage still make many competitors jealous."
"In the past twenty years, there have been at least hundreds of incidents of people breaking into Shaolin, sneaking into the Sutra Pavilion, and stealing sutras."
"It's just that these guys obviously don't know that the martial arts secrets of Shaolin Temple are no longer hidden in the Sutra Pavilion. Most of the Buddhist scriptures stored in the Sutra Pavilion are original Buddhist scriptures, handwritten Buddhist scriptures sent by nobles from the past dynasties, and some Buddhist masters. Annotated scripture translation.”
"Breaking into it, unless you can really find something like the Nine Yang Magic Skills hidden in the Lankavatara Sutra, will only cause unwarranted damage to the secret treasures in the Sutra Pavilion. No wonder the Shaolin Temple now arranges so many martial arts Monk, guard the Sutra Pavilion openly and covertly."
After verifying his identity, Cao Zhe finally entered the Sutra Pavilion as he wished.
In the Sutra Pavilion, there are also some great monks coming in and out of the temple. Not all of them are warrior monks, but more of them are dedicated to cultivating Buddhism.
Cao Zhe did not look for the Lankavatara Sutra impatiently.
Because he can't find it alone...
In the Sutra Pavilion, there are so many various sutras that they are as vast as a sea of smoke.
For the Lankavatara Sutra alone, there are various commentaries and hand-copied versions.
If Cao Zhe were to look through various versions of the Lankavatara Sutra alone, looking for the Nine-Yang Divine Art hidden in it, it would attract people's attention.
Although he has obtained the identity of Zhang Junbao, he is extremely talented and has incredible understanding, but he is still a rookie and needs to survive and develop first.
All it takes is a starting point, and the next thirty years...Cao Zhe is sure to be his.
It can even be said that the Nine-Yang Magic is actually not necessary.
Obtaining the Nine Yang Divine Art only shortens the initial distance of knowledge accumulation.
But if it is not the Nine-Yang Divine Art, but an orthodox and systematic martial art, it is not unacceptable.
