Chapter 496: Heart Sutra Meditation, Dragon Demon Mystery (Update 4)
"..."
The head of the Jingping Division shuddered, and stood up and saluted: "I have told you everything, without hiding anything. Your Majesty, please understand."
"Ok?"
Seeing that he refused so straightforwardly, Wu Yingxing frowned, but Emperor Qian didn't seem to care much and just waved his hand:
"I believe what Mr. Zhang said."
"Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty."
The Jingping Division Master breathed a sigh of relief.
"Zhaixing Tower is a great rebellion in the world. If this thief Qin Yun is not killed, I will not be at peace."
Emperor Qian tapped the chessboard, thinking.
"If your majesty has any doubts, you may ask Brother Wan to accompany me. With the speed of Duntianzhou, it will take only a few days to go back and forth."
The Chief of the Jingping Division bowed again:
"In case the enemy escapes far away, I think we should leave as soon as possible."
"No!"
Wu Yingxing spoke out to stop them: "The grand sacrifice is coming soon, anyone can leave the capital, except Brother Wan!"
As he spoke, he bowed to Emperor Qian:
"Your Majesty, don't forget that the Thousand Spirits Master is still in the Divine Capital City, as well as Huang Longzi..."
"Master Wu is right."
Emperor Qian nodded: "It's just that Qin Yun..."
"Qin Yunbi can't possibly be alive!"
Wu Yingxing raised his hand and threw the copper coins on the table. They flashed with fluorescent light and turned into a big word "death":
"I have cast divination nine times, and the hexagrams I got are all the same. Qin Yun must be dead and no longer in this world!"
"Is the Imperial Master suspicious of Zhang?"
The head of the Jingping Division could not help but refute: "If Qin Yun is not dead, who can activate the Eight Directions Tower? Even if Qin Shixian is not dead, he does not have this ability..."
"enough!"
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Emperor Qian rebuked them in a deep voice, and when they bowed and kept silent, he said:
"Master Wu's divination is accurate, and what Zhang Qing said must be true... However, at this critical moment, it is indeed not easy for King Zhenwu to leave the city..."
At this point, he paused for a moment and looked at the Jingping Division Master:
"What does Zhang Qing think?"
The Jingping Division Chief swallowed the words that came to his lips:
"I have no objection."
"Ah."
Seeing this, Emperor Qian said nothing more, but waved his hand:
"I am tired."
"I'm waiting to retire."
After watching the two men leave, Emperor Qian stood up. He paced in the hall, muttering "Qin Yun" and "Zhaixing Tower". After a while, he reached out and took down the bronze mirror on the wall.
hum~
As his true energy was activated, the bronze mirror suddenly emitted light, and after a moment, light and shadow intertwined and changed.
Emperor Qian concentrated his mind and saw a dark shadow in the bronze mirror. In the darkness, all kinds of shrill and terrifying screams were heard.
Wow~
Suddenly, the knife flashed brightly.
Under the gaze of Emperor Qian, there seemed to be an even darker dragon flying in the darkness, with a sword flashing across, cutting through large patches of black light. In the darkness, there were sounds of tearing silk, roaring, and the sound of a sword cutting flesh.
But in just a moment, all the sounds disappeared.
Wan Zhuliu's figure appeared in the bronze mirror. He held the Demon Subduing Dragon Divine Sword in his hand and wore the Sea-Suppressing Black Turtle Armor. Only a pair of cold eyes were revealed:
"Your Majesty is looking for me?"
"Can you gain anything by following the flow?"
Emperor Qian asked.
"The Golden Scales Road is cut off here. The Eight Directions Temple flashed by so quickly that it is difficult to determine its location... Just now, I was blocked by a strange place and I just killed everyone to escape."
Wan Zhuliu bowed in response.
Ever since the first unusual movement in the Bafang Temple, he has entered the Netherworld, and has been there until now.
"If it was so easy to find, the Bafang Temple wouldn't have been a mystery for thousands of years. I'm looking for you today because I have something..."
Emperor Qian briefly recounted what had just happened.
"Qin Yun?"
Wan Zhuliu's eyes darkened slightly, and even through the black tortoise shell, one could see the shining dragon pattern on his forehead:
"This beast has mastered the Dragon Demon Heart Sutra. Although he is not as good as the Dragon Demon Taoist, who has the ability to transform into a myriad of forms and be reborn by dropping blood, he is not much different. He may not die."
In the darkness, there seemed to be the sound of wind echoing.
Wan Zhuliu stood with his sword in his hand, but he looked very calm:
"Your Majesty, don't panic. If he were alive, I would kill him!"
"Zhuliu, it seems that you have gained a lot from this trip?"
Emperor Qian's expression relaxed slightly, but he seemed to know the reason. He just explained a few words and then extinguished the Great Sun Monitoring Sky Realm.
……
Woohoo~
In the darkness, there seemed to be some noise coming from somewhere, but it quickly flew away as if frightened.
"Dragon Demon Taoist, Pang Wenlong..."
A low voice sounded, and at the same time, a ray of silver light flowed out from Wan Zhuliu's eyes, turning into a blurry figure surrounded by silver light.
He looked at the bronze mirror:
"In this remote place, to be able to create such a rare treasure, that Pang Wenlong, or that Dragon Demon Taoist, must have touched the Bafang Temple!"
"What if I touch it, what if I don't touch it?"
Putting away the Sun Mirror, Wan Zhuliu said in a cold voice: "I followed your instructions and fought my way through six strange places. Where is the Eight Directions Temple?"
"It seems that the time has not come yet."
The figure transformed by the silver light shook his head: "The Eight Directions Temple isolates this mysterious land. The quality of these strange places is not enough to help you create the 'Cloud Demon Body'..."
"Can the body of the Cloud Demon definitely enter the Eight Directions Temple?"
Wan Zhuliu's eyes flickered.
"Perhaps during the grand ceremony."
The figure transformed by the silver light said very conservatively: "But, if you don't have this body, even if the grand sacrifice attracts the Eight Directions Temple, you will definitely not be able to enter."
"is it?"
Wan Zhuliu did not comment. He held the knife in one hand and grabbed the silver light with the other hand.
"I hope you won't lie to me?"
"Your last name is also Yun, how could I lie to you?"
With a "puff" sound, the silver light disappeared, and Wan Zhuliu walked into the darkness with a knife in his hand, his voice cold:
"My surname is Wan!"...
……
Woo~
In the Eight Directions Tower, as the light and shadow dispersed, Li Yuan stepped out. The devastated Great Zhou Divine Capital seemed to still remain in his eyes. In a trance, he saw someone walking down from the upstairs.
The man in the purple robe was Qin Yun.
"senior."
Li Yuan collected his thoughts and bowed.
Qin Yun nodded, and looked Li Yuan up and down, his expression changed:
"Bull body?"
"..."
Li Yuan really couldn't accept this name, but Qin Yun was obviously not here to discuss this with him. He raised his hand slightly, and the light and shadow around him changed.
It has been transformed into a study room.
"sit."
Li Yuan was truly envious of this skill, which was not only a profound grasp of true Qi, but also the application and changes of the divine realm.
"What do you feel after seeing the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty?"
Qin Yun asked.
Thinking back to the ruined city, Li Yuan replied, "The high priest is in danger."
A dynasty capital city with a national destiny greater than that of a great dynasty was reduced to ruins just because of a grand sacrifice. The impact of this scene is far more powerful than words can describe.
"Why is it dangerous?"
Qin Yun asked again.
"This……"
Li Yuan shook his head. He had read a lot of books about sacrifices, but he knew the results but not the reasons behind them.
"Sacrifice is a ritual to communicate with the gods, or to communicate with heaven and earth..."
Qin Yun looked at him:
"If you were a god, and someone offered you a sacrifice, offering you great benefits, would you turn ruthlessly and kill the person who offered the sacrifice?"
"will not."
Li Yuan shook his head.
"So, what is the danger of the Great Festival?"
Qin Yun asked himself and answered: "This danger, or backlash, comes from the fact that the sacrifice does not meet the specifications of the ritual, so it cannot react and will backfire."
"Not up to standard?"
Li Yuan frowned slightly.
"The method of the Great Zhou's Grand Sacrifice to the Eight Directions Temple came from the Master. There was nothing wrong with this method. The Master did not understand why something went wrong at the time, until later..."
Qin Yun paused for a moment, and without explaining the process, he went straight to the result:
"However, the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the Eight Directions Temple actually still has one requirement that is not met... that is, the person entering the temple."
"Those who enter the temple?"
Li Yuan's heart moved: "Could it be that this is the person who was reincarnated as the miracle that Senior Long Mo mentioned?"
wrong……
Li Yuan touched the mirage dragon belt around his waist. According to the little female dragon, someone from Tianshiyuan was suspected to have entered the Bafang Temple. It couldn't be that he was the reincarnation of a strange sight, right?
"Maybe it's talent."
Qin Yun answered.
"talent?"
"Yes, I think that the grand sacrifice leading to the Eight Directions Temple is one of the important things, and the qualification to enter it is equally important."
Qin Yun pinched his beard and said calmly.
"This……"
Li Yuan held the Mirage Dragon Belt and felt that it was more reliable.
"The grand incense offering will be in the morning, and the talent sufficient to enter the temple will come later. In my opinion, the latter may be more important than the former. Who knows?"
Qin Yun did not say he was dead.
Li Yuan asked carefully: "What do you mean by this, Senior?"
"This grand ceremony held by the imperial court may be an opportunity to verify this."
Hearing this, Li Yuan secretly felt that something was wrong. He was very curious about the Bafang Temple, but he definitely did not want to get involved in this muddy water, especially after seeing the tragic situation in the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
If the Great Fortune Temple Sacrifice fails...
Li Yuan was thinking about how to answer, but unexpectedly Qin Yun changed the subject and started talking about the Dragon Demon Heart Sutra:
"The Dragon Demon Heart Sutra is what most outsiders call it. Master's magical skill should be called the 'Zuowang Heart Sutra'. All beasts are the root, and Zuowang is the essence..."
Li Yuan collected his thoughts and listened to Qin Yun's story.
The Heart Sutra of Sitting and Forgetting is extremely complicated. Taoist Dragon Demon only taught the general outline. Qin Yun spoke eloquently for more than two hours, which made Li Yuan's temples throb.
"The Heart Sutra of Sitting and Forgetting is not something that ordinary people can learn. You have all the skills, so it goes without saying that you have a talent for martial arts. But you must be careful when practicing, and it's best to think about it a few more times."
Seeing that Li Yuan was in a bad condition, Qin Yun didn't say much. After briefly explaining the key points that needed attention, he raised his hand and sent him out of the Eight Directions Tower.
"Another difficult old man..."
Outside the Eight Directions Tower, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. Li Yuan rubbed his temples. He had gained too much today. Even though he had various items to strengthen his spirit, he couldn't help feeling dizzy.
This state is obviously not suitable for learning martial arts, let alone this level of magical skills.
Therefore, Li Yuan waited for Lao Han to come down, informed him, then went back to the house, took a magic pill, and fell asleep.
I slept until noon the next day.
After waking up, Li Yuan still felt a little groggy. Last night, he had dreamed all night and his sleep quality was unusually poor.
"call!"
After getting up and doing a few sets of standing meditation and taking a few elixirs, Li Yuan's spirit was mostly restored. He then sat cross-legged, recalling and sorting out the 'Ten Thousand Beasts Sitting and Forgetting, Dragon Demon Heart Sutra'.
This magic skill, which is as famous as the God Worship Method, is, as Qin Yun said, about meditation and forgetfulness, and the first step to get started is visualization.
But it was different from all the visualization methods he had encountered before.
"The mind preserves its spirit, the body preserves its form... observe its form, and transform it..."
"Transform all forms into flesh and blood... so it can be transformed into a thousand forms, and reborn with a drop of blood!"
