Cultivation starts with time management

Deadwood Zen?Zhizhi thought for a while, and then denied this possibility.

Withered wood Zen is to practice the body until it is exhausted, but the source of the soul is getting stronger and stronger. It belongs to a side door that uses the body to feed back the soul.

And these fake monks in Jinchan Temple are not only physically broken, but also their spirits are very weak. If the dead wood Zen can be practiced to this extent, then it is more appropriate to suggest changing the name to "Suicide Zen".

It seems... I still have to find an opportunity to go to the abandoned town under the mountain to find out.

Chapter 43 The Wandering Celestial Ball, Right?

Jinchan Temple was built on the mountainside, about a hundred feet high from the top of the mountain.

Going up is the top of the mountain, and there is a spring on the top. The monks in the temple send people up to fetch water every day.

Going down is a winding mountain road, passing through the sea of ​​clouds, and I don't know where it leads.

Now it seems that it needs to be explored.

The monks in the temple have morning classes and evening classes every day.After the morning class, everyone dispersed and walked around in the temple. It was inconvenient to cover up their traces, so we decided to set off during the evening class.

Going down the mountain road, the surrounding clouds and fog become thicker, making people feel like they are in the deep sea.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, the fog finally gradually dissipated.

Zhizhi looked around, and found that he was in ruins, which was probably the original site of the town mentioned by Jianxing.

It ruined everything.

Zhizhi looked at it expressionlessly, only to see that there were broken bricks and tiles everywhere, bumps and bumps, and there was not even a place to stand.

Among the rubble and gravel, fragments of wooden furniture, remains of iron pans on the stove, etc. can be vaguely seen, which are also shattered and mixed with the construction waste all over the floor.

He suddenly bent down and stared at the rubble on the ground.

"What's wrong?" Su Mingjian asked curiously.

"It's broken too badly." Zhizhi replied, "It doesn't look like an earthquake."

"If it was caused by an earthquake, most of the buildings were broken transversely, and it is unlikely that they would become so fine... For example, if an earthquake is compared to a cook shaking a pot, then judging from the brokenness of the wreckage here, it is more like It was stir-fried and stir-fried very vigorously."

"That's right." Kunlun Mirror added, "Let me tell you, this is actually caused by space shocks."

"Space shock?" Zhizhi asked curiously, "What is that?"

"It's almost the same as your analogy." Kunlun Mirror replied, "Stir frying in an iron pan... It's just that the stir frying is space."

"Under what circumstances will there be space shocks?" Wisely asked with a frown.

He felt that he had been vaguely close to the truth.

"Very few cases." Kunlun Mirror replied, "If this cave is compared to a ball, then under what circumstances will the inside of the ball be shaken?"

"Of course someone is playing the ball outside." The name said thoughtfully, "You mean, someone is using magic to attack this cave?"

"No." Kunlun Mirror denied, "Think about it, even the overwhelming and massive spells you have seen are just a drop in the ocean compared to the size of the entire world."

"Using the ball as an analogy, these spells are like some dust in the ball, how can they shake the ball itself?"

"You're right, but this is the cave." Zhizhi touched his chin and said, "Of course the scale of the cave is not as large as that of the cultivation world, so it can be shaken by the whole. In addition, the Jinchan Temple is the center, and there are many caves all over the world." The formation inside the entire cave... I have roughly understood it."

"It should be that someone activated the formation, which caused a spatial shock in the entire cave, and that's why all the residents of the town and the monks in the temple were killed."

Having said that, Zhizhi felt that there was something wrong with this guess.

Motivation?

Launching a formation, causing the space to vibrate, and killing all the monks inside the cave, is there any benefit to the manipulator of the formation?

No, think about it again... First of all, it is impossible for someone to secretly arrange this kind of formation all over the cave, and it is probably the handiwork of the Jinchan Temple itself.

Here comes the question: Why did the temple set up such a huge formation that can produce space shocks and is almost suicidal?

"According to my guess, this formation should have another purpose." Zhizhi pondered for a long time, then said slowly, "The space shock is just a side effect of it."

"We still have to start with the Golden Cicada Temple formation and do further research."

"Yeah." Kunlun Mirror echoed, "I'll scan it for you too."

Zhizhi turned on the scanning mode again, and he saw that the lines of the formation stretched down the mountain, almost penetrating every rock.

After arriving at the foot of the mountain, it spread out in all directions, and indeed it was a giant formation all over the entire cave, and its complexity was also unusual...Huh?

Zhizhi suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and screamed in his heart:

"I know where I've seen similar formations!"

"Huh?" Kunlun Mirror and Su Mingjian asked at the same time.

"Big formation of mending the sky!" Zhizhi said with great certainty, "It was mentioned in the bamboo slips given to me by the Wanxiang Immortal in the past, that the Nuwa clan designed this formation for mending the sky back then!"

One mirror and one sword were suddenly stunned, and Zhizhi was already thinking boiled at this time, his mind was extremely sharp, staring at the formation around him and said quickly:

"It's really good! This is not a big formation that monitors the whole temple, nor is it a big formation that oscillates in space. This is a big sky formation! It wraps the entire cave in a man-made sky, even if the cultivation world outside is destroyed. Complete destruction will not bring disaster to this cave!"

"This is what Immortal Wanxiang originally envisioned, to protect the entire sect from the catastrophe!"

……

There was a long silence.

"Why don't you talk?" Wisely asked with a puzzled frown.

"Seeing how excited Master Sword Master is after discovering the truth, we dare not disturb your interest." Su Mingjian said haha.

"I have something to say!" Zhizhi said impatiently, "I just analyzed it, is there a problem?"

"No problem." Kunlun Mirror asked inexplicably, "but if that's the case...why would this great formation of the sky cause a shock in the space, thus killing the life in the space?"

"Master Sword Master said just now." Su Mingjian said calmly, "This grand formation is not designed to cause space shocks. To be precise, space shocks are just a price."

"What price?" Kunlun Mirror asked.

"Shooting the ball." Su Mingjian said with a smile, "I ask you: If you know that the catastrophe is about to happen, so you want to build such a big array to protect the sect. Then, after the big array is finally built , what do you want to do next?"

What to do... One person and one mirror also pondered.

The sky dome repaired by the sky-replenishing stone couldn't sustain it for a long time in the catastrophe.

For a small cave like this, after barely being able to survive the destruction of the world, the next step must be thinking about how to escape from the sky...

"Could it be?" Zhizhi had a flash of inspiration again, thinking of a movie he had seen before, "Jinchan Temple intends to take the entire sky and all the factions to ascend to the nearest fairyland?"

Kunlun Mirror was also stunned when he heard this.

Ascension of the faction... It sounds like a fantasy, but it seems not impossible when you think about it.

You know, this world has entered the end of life, but the fairy world closest to this world is completely safe.

Instead of lingering in the post-shattered world, it is better to escape to the fairy world, that is a life-saving move once and for all.

If ordinary monks want to go to the fairy world, they can only rely on the power of feathering and ascension. Otherwise, even if they forcefully break through the sky, they will not be able to withstand the chaos of the outer world.

But with this great formation of the sky, the cave sky of Jinchan Temple can be wrapped into a hard ball, which can resist the attack of chaos and turbulence.

Then, some grand means were used to smash the entire cave like a rubber ball, subjecting it to a huge external force and blasting it towards the fairy world... and the space vibration is the best proof that the cave was bombarded!

Chapter 44 Strategizing

Facing the catastrophe of annihilation, different people have different attitudes.

Most people must be thinking that I will ascend quickly, so that I won’t hang out in this dying world—it’s fast and safe, and there’s no fuss, isn’t it beautiful?

However, it is only a thousand years away from the extinction of the world. It is definitely too late for the monks in the Golden Core Realm to become immortals, and most of the Nascent Soul Realm will suffer. What should these brothers and sisters do?So there are people with great ambitions, such as the Penglai Vientiane Immortal, who want to protect the sect as soon as possible, at least to win the final development time for those monks and disciples whose realm is not enough.

And the great power who created the Jinchan Temple had the same intention, right?

For this kind of selfless and loving person, Zhizhi has always held an attitude of admiration, admiration, and respect. Therefore, he made a very difficult decision to steal the fragments of the sky-replenishing stone that maintains the celestial formation that maintains the cave. Then use it to mend the sky, so that there will be no space shocks to harm the monks, wonderful!

Let me bear your pain from now on!

Wisely and calmly, he walked across the ruins of the town and continued on.

The town was built on a flat land at the edge of the mountain, and further ahead was a huge rift that surrounded the town and the entire mountain range, as if this was the boundary of the cave.

He silently turned on the scanning mode, and saw dense runes climbing up from the bottom of the rift, gathering at the end of the sky above the mountain top, forming a huge semicircular shield.

Continuing to look at the bottom of the rift, Zhizhi smiled and said:

"Looking at the trend of the cliff in this rift, I'm afraid someone installed a nuclear-powered jet engine at the bottom, otherwise it wouldn't be so round."

"What is nuclear power?" Su Mingjian asked.

"What is a jet engine?" Kunlun Mirror also asked.

"You don't need to know." Zhizhi calmly ordered, "A Jing, where is the fragment of the sky-replenishing stone, and quickly locate it for me."

Kunlun mirror: ...

She quickly enlarged the scanning range, and patiently swept away inch by inch, only to hear Zhizhi say again:

"No need. Judging from the current formation, the sky-replenishing stone fragments must be located in the center of the formation, that is, the center of the cave, as the formation's suppressing weapon."

"The center of this world..." Kunlun Mirror pondered for a moment, then said, "It seems to be under the Buddhist temple? In the mountains?"

"You can use the Five Elements Divine Light to break in." Su Mingjian suggested.

"Not in a hurry." Zhizhi thought for a moment, then shook his head, "We still have to find out what's behind Jinchan Temple."

"Otherwise, just as I snatched the Sky-Mending Stone, some old monster was alarmed over there and came out to slap me to death. Wouldn't it be a mistake?"

"Where are there so many old monsters?" Su Mingjian said with a smile, "Master Sword Master is now in the Nascent Soul Realm, and is a first-grade fairy baby. Is the Jinchan Temple not going to work?"

"What is arm wrestling with an immortal?" Zhizhi immediately complained, "If I can beat an immortal, why do I need to hibernate with so many trumpets? It's just that I barely have the power to protect myself and escape."

"That's enough!" Su Mingjian urged, "I snatched the fragments of the sky-replenishing stone, and then asked Ah Jing to send you out! Anyway, the cave of Jinchan Temple is isolated from the world, let alone the sky-replenishing stone It doesn't matter if the fragments are stolen, even if the cave is blown up."

"No, it has something to do with it." Zhizhi thought for a moment and said, "No. [-] is watching in the temple. If there is any big movement, the hell road will inevitably suspect me."

"Besides, I am lurking here to practice, and on the surface I am told to collect information. If I leave rashly, how will I explain to the hell?"

"In that case, let's wait until the hell way lets you go, and then attack the sky-replenishing stone." Kunlun mirror suggested.

"Yeah." Zhizhi said lightly, "If I continue to do nothing, I'm afraid I won't be able to sit still on the other side of the hell road."

In the next few days, Zhizhi really restrained himself a lot, and for a few days he didn't even bother to borrow Buddhist scriptures.

Stay in your own wing all day, don't ask what you are doing - just sleep in!

The presiding old monk didn't say anything, probably because he was indeed no longer wary of him.Jian Xing finally couldn't hold back anymore, and during the time of cleaning the room, he quietly asked through voice transmission:

"No. [-], so many days have passed, have you found out anything?"

"Number two." Zhizhi asked him indifferently, "What did you find out?"

"I haven't." Jian Xing seemed a little embarrassed, and reminded him, "Don't forget, the Suzerain asked you to come and help me because I thought my speed of collecting information was too slow!"

"I know you're in a hurry, but don't be in a hurry." Zhizhi said slowly, "The situation in Jinchan Temple is really weird and complicated, and it's impossible to get started... Let me ask you, have you ever tried violence? I see that none of the monks in the temple have cultivated themselves."

"Don't be violent." Seeing Xing said depressedly, "A few years ago, there was a rebellion by a monk in the monastery."

"Rebellion?" Zhizhi asked in surprise, "Details."

"Cough, I don't know why, but there was a fight anyway." Jian Xing replied hesitantly, "A group of people surrounded the main hall, what should the host give me?"

"and then?"

"Then it exploded on the spot," Jian Xing said.

wise:? ? ?

"Explode in place, what do you mean?"

"It literally means it." Jian Xing replied, "There is no sign of any spell or formation being activated...Of course, it may be because my cultivation base is low and I can't see it. In short, all the monks exploded on the spot. The ground in front of the main hall Stained red with a lot of blood and flesh, there is no clean place."

"The young monks who witnessed at that time were all ordered to keep silent. But what is even more strange is that after about a month, the monks who exploded reappeared in the temple, and their words and deeds were the same as before their death. No two."

"It's not impossible if you say you want to force your way into such an evil place. You can break into one first and let me see. If you really get any useful information, it can be regarded as a great contribution to our sect."

"Hehe, I'm just talking." Zhizhi changed the subject decisively, "What are those monks going to host?"

"Give me an explanation."

"What do you say?"

"I don't know." Jian Xing said, "Our little novice monks were all watching around, and they probably didn't dare to tell us to let us know. They just yelled at the host, 'We can't wait any longer, we must give a clear explanation'."
