I have been a saint in the world for three thousand years

This grand lecture is a grand ceremony held every five years at the Fanyin Temple.

It not only attracted the attention of the people of Lingchuan Prefecture, but its influence also radiated hundreds of miles around.

Countless people came to participate in the event.

Yesterday, the Fanyin Temple seemed somewhat empty and quiet, but today it is extremely lively, with crowds of people jostling each other.

Among this surging crowd, there are not only devout believers of the Fanyin Temple, but also many disciples of the sect wearing uniform clothes.

They came from all corners of the world and gathered together today.

In addition, there are many lone heroes in the world who also come to Fanyin Temple.

Their trip was not just to listen to the lectures, but also had other purposes.

"Today, the Fanyin Temple is holding a grand Dharma feast to expound Buddhist scriptures. I, the old monk, would like to respectfully welcome all the martial arts heroes to visit our temple. It is a great honor."

The Zen abbot spoke slowly. Although his voice was not loud, it was clear and distinct to everyone's ears.

"It seems that the abbot's skills have reached a new level."

The warriors who came to participate in the ceremony exclaimed in praise, their words full of admiration.

"I wonder which sect will win the first prize in today's martial arts competition?"

A warrior who was concerned about today's grand competition spoke up.

The grand lecture at the Fanyin Temple is just a wonderful prelude, and the subsequent martial arts competition is what everyone is most concerned about.

The winner will not only win generous rewards, but also have the opportunity to explore the secrets of the Sutra Library of Fanyin Temple.

If you are lucky, you may be able to realize the supreme magical powers of Buddhism.

Such an opportunity is rare.

Yan Xiu and A Li sat among the bustling guests, as if blending into the noisy background.

Ah Li swayed her jade-white calves lightly, revealing a hint of fatigue and boredom.

"Brother Yan, why hasn't it started yet?"

She pouted and whispered something in Yan Xiu's ear.

Yan Xiu patted her head and comforted her, "Don't worry, it will start soon."

Not long after, a deep and long bell sound suddenly echoed in the sky above Fanyin Temple.

When everyone heard the bell, they immediately understood that the lecture was about to begin.

All the people who were originally talking loudly suddenly stopped their noisy conversation and turned into a solemn silence.

The abbot in meditation chanted the Buddha's name, sat cross-legged on the high platform, and began to preach aloud.

Its sound is like the gurgling of a clear spring, echoing in everyone's ears and gently cleansing the hearts of every believer.

The believers who came to listen to the Buddhist teachings all looked pious, with expressions of ecstasy on their faces.

If you are not a believer of Fanyin Temple, this long lecture would be extremely boring and a test of your patience.

For Yan Xiu, whether to listen or not is entirely up to his own heart.

Just half an hour after the abbot began to preach, some people could no longer suppress their restlessness and became fidgety.

Without exception, most of these people are warriors who travel around the world and are accustomed to freedom.

They all felt like sitting on pins and needles and kept moving their bodies, trying to make themselves feel better.

Amid this slight commotion, Ali seemed particularly different.

Her eyes were closed and her face was serene, as if she had been immersed in an ocean of Buddhist scriptures.

This scene is like a lotus quietly blooming in the noisy world, attracting attention.

Even the Zen master sitting high on the podium couldn't help but cast his eyes towards Ali.

There was deep appreciation and satisfaction in his eyes.

Seeing that Ali was able to enter a state of meditation after listening to the great monk's lecture for the first time, he became more determined to guide her into Buddhism.

In Master Chan Ding’s opinion, only people with such pure hearts and deep understanding can become the best choice to inherit Buddhism and spread compassion.

After an hour, this long lecture, which was difficult to understand for others, finally came to an end.

Everyone seemed to be freed from the abyss of depression. They stood up one after another, stretched their stiff limbs from sitting for so long, and exhaled the old and took in the new.

Not long after, Monk Chanyuan slowly stepped onto the stage, his figure looking particularly solemn under the afternoon sun.

He first put his hands together reverently and bowed to the audience.

"Amitabha, this martial arts exchange event will be hosted by this poor monk, Chan Yuan. I hope you can make friends through martial arts and explore the essence of martial arts together."

Shortly after Chan Yuan finished speaking, a hearty laugh suddenly came from all directions.

"Hahaha, it seems that it is better for me to arrive at the right time than to arrive early!"

A burly, imposing man came into everyone's sight.

The man was big and strong, with muscles as twisted as the roots of an ancient tree, like an iron tower.

Behind him, a group of disciples lined up in an orderly manner.

They were dressed in the same uniform of the sect and followed closely with firm steps.

"People from the Quan Dao Sect are here!"

Some people in the crowd recognized the identity of the visitor and started talking about it in amazement.

"I didn't expect that Nanshan Fist would also participate this year. It was really unexpected."

"I heard that the might of the leader of the Quan Dao Sect is so powerful that it can split mountains and break rocks. I wonder if it's true or not?"

Not long after, another voice sounded.

"You act so arrogantly, people who don't know you would think you are some important person!"

There was a hint of contempt in the tone of this voice, which immediately made the disciples of the Quandao Sect look at each other angrily.

A group of warriors dressed in azure blue robes strode over, walking like dragons and moving like tigers, causing the atmosphere around them to tense.

The leader's horoscope must be smooth as the wind and his face must be angular.

The most eye-catching thing is undoubtedly the pair of solid and powerful legs underneath, like iron pillars.

The muscles bulge high, containing amazing explosive power.

"They are from the North Sea Divine Leg Sect!"

Someone in the crowd whispered.

"I heard that these two sects are mortal enemies. I'm afraid there will be something interesting to watch today!"

The man's words showed awe and infinite anticipation for the upcoming showdown between masters.

It is said that enemies become jealous of each other when they meet.

As soon as the two sides met, an indescribable tension instantly filled the air, as if they were about to fight if they disagreed.

In such a tense atmosphere, Monk Chanyuan immediately stepped forward to smooth things over.

“Today’s martial arts event has the presence of two great masters, which makes our Fanyin Temple feel honored and adds color and glory.

I also ask you to give me the face of the Fanyin Temple and calm down for now, and wait until the final battle on the ring."

As the saying goes, don’t hit someone with a smiling face.

Since the host Fanyin Temple has said so, both sides will naturally not give them some face.

“Humph, today our two sects will compete on the ring, and let the heroes of the world witness whether the Nanshan boxing method is the best in the martial arts world, or the Beihai magic leg is the best among all the heroes!”

As the leaders of both sides took their seats one after another, the martial arts event of Fanyin Temple officially began.

Martial arts sects and heroes from all over the world were invited to appear on the stage like stars, each showing their magical powers.

Some are as light and graceful as swallows skimming the water, silently and silently.

Some of them descend from the clouds on the wind, with great momentum and shocking the audience.

The various entrances all had different styles and added some cheers to the event.

in the crowd.

Ali's eyes lit up as she watched this scene, her attention completely attracted by the way these renowned martial arts masters appeared.
