Immortality in the Great Qian Dynasty

Xu Zhijian said: "The court only has this idea now, and has not yet implemented it, but Master thinks that no one can stop it."

Fakong nodded lightly: "The court is getting stronger now."

As one rises, the other falls. The Daqian court is strong, and the martial arts sects are naturally weak.

Daqian has been peaceful for a long time, and the shadow of the previous dynasty has long dissipated. It is no longer so vigilant against the Demon Sect.

Even the disciples of the Demon Sect have entered the hall to balance the three major sects.

The three major sects and the Demon Sect are like water and fire, and it is absolutely impossible to cooperate, so the court is getting stronger.

Xu Zhijian said slowly: "I heard from Master that the court set up the Southern Supervisory Department at the suggestion of the Demon Sect."

"The Demon Sect will occupy the main positions in the Southern Supervisory Department? This is interesting, and the guest is the host."

"The demons are dancing." Xu Zhijian snorted: "The world is going to change again, alas..., the cycle of heaven is endless, and it is really no exception!"

He imitated the words of his master Xu Fenghai, and even imitated the tone exactly.

"Daqian is different from the previous dynasty after all."

"Master said that the previous dynasty was not so corrupt at the beginning, but the situation was getting closer and closer, and it was possible that the Demon Sect was fanning the flames. The Demon Sect is best at bewitching people and taking advantage of the situation!"

"Brother Xu means that our three major sects should join forces to put pressure on the court?"

At the beginning, the three major sects worked together to deal with the Demon Sect, but now the three major sects are doing their own things and letting the Demon Sect grow.

In the final analysis, it is because of the long period of peace that they are not so vigilant against the Demon Sect.

The Demon Sect is divided into six, and they fight each other, which does not pose a big threat to the three major sects, but they have not weakened in the process of fighting, but have become stronger and stronger.

The world is so big that everyone can practice magic.

With a solid and huge foundation, how can the Demon Sect Six Paths be weak under such circumstances?

On the contrary, the disciples of the three major sects are selected from the best, taking the elite route, and the number of people is too small.

Xu Zhijian shook his head: "Master said that we must not join forces to exert pressure, which will only anger the court and force the court to be more determined to establish the Southern Supervisory Office. Master also said that this news must not be leaked."

Fakong nodded slowly.

He understood what Xu Zhijian meant.

This matter cannot be stopped, and the general trend is difficult to shake, so try to make preparations early and find a way to get a higher position in the Southern Supervisory Office.

This is also Xu Zhijian's return of favors.

After Xu Zhijian left the Medicine Valley and returned to the Jingshe arranged by the Vajra Temple, Fakong found Huinan and told him about it, and then put it behind him.

Such a big thing is not for a vegetable-growing monk like me to worry about.

Let the elders and abbots of the Prajna Academy plan it.

One person's wisdom is short, and many people's wisdom is long. No matter how fast and broad your thinking is, it is not as shrewd as those old monks.

——

In the following days, Xu Zhijian came to the Medicine Valley after dinner and drank tea and chatted with Fakong.

While chatting, he stood up and made a few moves.

Fakong had a deeper understanding of the martial arts of the Holy Light Church, a deeper understanding than Huiwen.

Huiwen kept a distance from the Holy Light Church, and did not touch it. When they met, they just said hello and did not have a deep conversation.

Fakong was different. He opened up to Xu Zhijian.

The moves of the Great Light Fist were simple, but the power was extremely strong. It was basically the mysterious mind method, and the source of the mysterious mind method was the heart of light.

The heart of light was condensed by faith. It was neither real nor false, neither light nor darkness, neither faith nor will. It was an existence beyond it.

But faith and will are also related to the heart of light.

The stronger the faith, the stronger the power of the Great Light Fist.

You need a punch to break the infinite darkness and see the will of light.

So the Great Light Fist becomes stronger when it encounters a strong opponent. There is no limit to its power. It all depends on the firmness of faith and will.

Especially when the opponent is a bad guy, the power is even stronger.

The same is true for the Great Light Body.

"Fakong, your immobilization spell actually restrains our Holy Light Church."

"The immobilization spell is similar to all sects, right? It restrains them all."

"It's different."

"Oh, what's the difference? Brother Xu, please tell me."

"The most powerful point of the immobilization spell is to hit people's confidence, make people feel desperate, and thus shake their confidence."

"Hmm..."

Fakong really didn't know this.

After all, the immobilization spell cannot be cast on oneself, so he can't experience the taste of it.

"With infinite power surrounding you, your will and faith cannot break through. You will feel insignificant and have no confidence. Even if the spell of immobilization fails, this feeling of despair cannot be eliminated. If it happens again and again, I am afraid that I will completely lose the courage to fight you."

"I still have a spell that can eliminate despair."

"Oh——?"

"Why not give it a try?"

"Okay."

...

"Fakong, my heart of light has become stronger and purer!"

"It seems that despair and hope, hope and despair, keep tempering, just like tempering a sword."

"That's right, come again!"

...

"I thought I came to the Vajra Temple in vain this time, but I didn't expect to have such a huge harvest!"

Xu Zhijian smiled.

He felt his heart of light, which was purer, more solid, and as bright as the moon compared to before he came to the Vajra Temple.

Other martial arts disciples start by cultivating essence, then true qi, then Gangqi, and then Shenyuan.

The disciples of the Holy Church of Light start by condensing the heart of light, and then use the heart of light to promote essence, true qi, Gangqi, and finally Shenyuan.

This makes the aura of the disciples of the Holy Church of Light contain great light, which is both extremely strong and masculine, and has the effect of purifying people's hearts.

The Qi stage has the characteristics of the Shenyuan realm, affecting the opponent's mind to produce hallucinations.

When fighting against the disciples of the Guangming Holy Cult, they often feel that there is a bright light in front of them, and it is completely white, and they can't see anything.

There is a statue of Medicine Master Buddha sitting in Fakong, and he is using a restraining spell, so he cannot appreciate the true power of the Great Light Fist.

"I have four great spells in total. The Great Light Mantra is to save the dead, the Immobilization Mantra is for self-protection, the Pure Heart Mantra is for purifying the mind, and the Rejuvenation Mantra is for recovery. Why don't I cast it on you a few times?"

"It couldn't be better."

…

Half an hour later.

"Wonderful!"

Xu Zhijian sighed.

His body underwent subtle changes, becoming lighter and more agile, becoming more handy.

Some sluggish places in the body, which are difficult to treat with medicine and stone, and which are difficult to treat with spiritual energy, are now dissipated and flowing smoothly.

Fakong sipped tea and smiled leisurely.

"Fakong, please come and sit down at our Guangming Holy Sect main altar when you have time."

"Well..." Fakong hesitated, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Let's forget it."

"Our Guangming Holy Cult General Altar is not a dragon's pond or a tiger's den."

"It is said that there is a heart of light hanging on the main altar of your Guangming Holy Cult, like the scorching sun in the sky. Those with an impure heart will become possessed by evil spirits. I have six impure roots, so it is better not to get rid of it."

"This is spreading rumors. In fact, those who are hostile to our Holy Religion of Light will be harmed, while those who are friendly to the Holy Religion will not. In fact, the friendlier we are, the more we will benefit. The benefits are endless. You might as well give it a try, Fakong."

"...Okay." Fakong nodded slowly.

After getting along for the past few days, the relationship between the two has gradually improved and they are now friends.

He really wanted to see the legendary magical object, the Heart of Light.

"Actually, there is one thing I want to explain, which is what happened with the two women in red."

"Brother Xu, it's actually nothing. It's not surprising that people have different ideas."

"I have no intention of sparing the two of them. Even if they can survive, they will be driven into a big bright stake, so that they will suffer the pain of being burned by the scorching sun every day."

Fa Kong smiled and nodded, noncommittal.

There is no point in arguing about this matter.

The way to get along is to put aside disputes and seek common ground while reserving differences.

"Brother Xu, how do you like my tea?"

"Good tea." Xu Zhijian nodded: "But I don't like tea."

"Oh——?" Fakong laughed: "It's really a sin to drink with me for so many days."

Lin Feiyang's eyes widened as he stood aside.

Watching Xu Zhijian taste tea seriously, after taking a sip, his eyebrows furrowed, thinking that he was just like Monk Fakong who was proficient in tea taste and had a picky taste.

This made me unconvinced and worked hard to continuously improve my tea-making skills.

It turned out to be empty airs!

"You think the tea is fragrant, I think the tea is bitter, but the bitterness is nothing."

He didn't want to disturb Fakong's interest.

Fakong was sparring with him, and he was expounding his views on martial arts. His words were filled with true knowledge and insights, and he actually had no secrets.

It's okay to drink a cup of tea with him by yourself.

Now that we have established friendship, we can tell the truth.

After these few days of getting along, he felt Fakong's magnanimity and sincerity, as well as his selfless help. He was so grateful that he regarded Fakong as a close friend.

Since we are good friends, we should tell the truth and there is no need to hide anything.

"Then change it for you?"

"No need." Xu Zhijian shook his head: "Drinking is for fun, not tea, that's all."

"Brother Xu, you are really..." Fakong shook his head and laughed.

…

The two chatted for a while about martial arts affairs.

Fakong talked about the power of the soul and asked if any sect in the world had any martial arts that could enhance the power of the soul.

There is no concept or expression of spiritual power in this world. To put it closely, it is the power of soul.

The Holy Religion of Light is a model of using the mind to control objects, which is likely to involve the use and cultivation of spiritual power.

This is actually one of the fundamental reasons why he took the initiative to make friends with Xu Zhijian.

"The...power of the soul...the soul..." Xu Zhijian's eyebrows were knitted together, and his triangular eyes were narrowed to the point of being invisible: "The power of the soul..."

Fakong smiled and said: "Actually, it's similar to your bright heart. To cast a Buddhist spell like me, you need the power of the soul to attract the power of heaven and earth, but it also consumes the power of the soul."

"It's different." Xu Zhijian shook his head: "The heart of light gets stronger the more you use it, and it won't be depleted. ... Well, I kind of understand. It should be mental power."

Fakong nodded.

That's pretty much it.

"If it comes from mental strength, our Da Qian sects don't have such mental methods, but Da Yong does."

"oh--?"

"There is a copy of the White Lotus Temple's Void Fetal Breathing Sutra at the Holy Sect Headquarters." Xu Zhijian nodded: "It's just half of it. This sutra is for training your mind."

"White Lotus Temple..." Fakong was thoughtful.

He searched the memories of everyone in Dayong and found Bailian Temple from Gu Xinxian's memory.

But it is a temple that has disappeared.

Two hundred years ago, Bailian Temple was also a large temple with great popularity. Although it was not as good as the Daimyolian Temple that is now at its peak in Dayong, it was not inferior by much.

But for unknown reasons, a fire burned down Bailian Temple overnight. It is said that none of the disciples in the temple survived.

How the fire started, whether it was started by oneself or caused by human intervention, the fire of Bailian Temple is full of doubts.

But because all the disciples of Bailian Temple disappeared, no one traced them, and the matter was eventually dropped.

Xu Zhijian said: "If you want to see Fakong, I will ask someone to send it to you when I get back."

"Thank you, Brother Xu."

"There is no need to be so polite between you and me."

Fakong raised his cup and took a sip, feeling satisfied.

At this time, the moon was high in the sky, the moonlight was as cool as water, and the surroundings were quiet.

"Bang!" A muffled sound suddenly broke the tranquility of the valley.

Lin Feiyang flashed twice and appeared at the entrance of the valley, and then floated to the pavilion with a person.

"Brother Fawu." Fakong stood up.

Fawu was unconscious, his face was ginger with a hint of green, his breathing was weak, and he was already dying.

Rejuvenation Mantra ten times.

Fawu woke up.

"Brother..." Fawu looked at him blankly.

Fakong gave him another Heart Cleansing Mantra.

Fawu was refreshed and completely sober, and said calmly: "Brother, I am alive again."

"Did you meet a tough guy?" Fakong said.

Fawu took a deep breath and said slowly: "Brother Faji and Brother Faxiang are gone."

Fakong frowned.

The sound of clothes breaking through the air, Yuanhua, Yuanfang and Yuanxin came together.

Apparently, they had received the news of his return and serious injury, and hurried over.

Yuanhua looked weak, but he was Faning's senior brother, and was actually also in charge of intelligence.

Yuanfang was the head of Yaowangyuan.

Yuanxin was the receptionist.

They were the backbone of Vajra Temple.
