The Trick of Longevity, Paper-cutting Becomes a Spirit

Chapter 372 Going to the third level to enter the fairyland
  Lu Qian glanced at the bald monk in red robes with disgust and said, "Just call me master. You should have figured out your current situation by now."

Zhiyuan was stunned, and his face instantly became a bit paler.

His hands were trembling slightly, and even the muscles of his cheeks were trembling a little, and he said: "Yes..."

Lu Qian asked directly: "Why do so many people from your sect come to the grassland this time?"

After hearing this, Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment, and then said after a while: "To capture Wang Xuan, the mountain god of Liangyin Mountain."

Lu Qian heard this, his eyes flashed, and he thought to himself: "It is indeed Wang Xuan!"

He took two steps back, sat down on the chair, and then waved to Zhiyuan.

Zuo Qiuling and other brides stood behind Lu Qian.

Zhiyuan glanced at the paper brides behind Lu Qian. At this time, he already understood that he, like these people, had become Lu Qian's "paper spirit".

Seeing Zhiyuan standing still, Lu Qian frowned slightly.

The paper bride he took in before basically adapted to his new identity immediately after his "transformation".

The Zhiyuan in front of him had obviously not yet adapted to his change of identity.

This "paper groom" is indeed not as useful as the "paper bride".

There is no way, who makes Tianbao Temple without women.

Lu Qian was not in a hurry. He sat wide on the chair and just looked at Zhiyuan expressionlessly.

Zhiyuan stood still for a moment, then took two steps forward, walked up to Lu Qian, clasped his hands together as usual, bowed to Lu Qian, and said: "Poor monk Zhiyuan, pay homage to the master."

Lu Qian looked at him and said: "In your consciousness, I am your wife. But in fact, I am your master now, and everything you have now is under my control. You understand this now No?"

Zhiyuan nodded and said: "I understand...I understand."

Lu Qian continued: "I am not as good as Long Yang, and I don't need you to serve me. With your appearance, you should be self-aware."

Just as Lu Qian finished saying this, he heard Runbao burst out laughing behind him.

She laughed and suddenly asked: "Ms. sir, what is... the good of Long Yang?"

Ji Siyu looked at Runbao with a half-smiling expression and said, "You want to ask, what does 'female bow down to serve' mean?"

When Runbao heard Ji Siyu's words, a look of embarrassment appeared on her face. She pursed her lips and remained silent.

If her face could be filled with blood, it would have turned into a big red face at this moment.

Ji Siyu looked at Runbao with a playful expression, then leaned into her ear, wanting to say something to her.

"To shut up."

Lu Qian gave a soft drink, and Ji Siyu immediately stood up obediently.

This little girl knows a lot of things when she is walking outside.

Lu Qian continued: "You are dead now. From today on, you have nothing to do with your past. From now on, you only need to serve me, do you understand?"

Zhiyuan looked embarrassed and bowed again: "I understand... I understand."

Lu Qian said: "Let's talk about your Tianbao Temple first, briefly."

"Yes."

Zhiyuan said: "Tianbao Temple is located in Fengxiang City. It has ten branches in various places in Dali, with a total of about ten thousand disciples. The abbot of Tianbao Temple is the Kongmen Master and my master. Below the abbot, there are Bodhidharma Temple and Prajna Hall. and Luohan Hall, each with three heads.

The head of Bodhidharma Academy is my Uncle Kongxiang. Like my master, he is also in the fourth level of cave underworld, and he is also the one with the highest cultivation level in Tianbao Temple. Master Kongxiang lives deep in Bodhidharma Academy and rarely goes out.

The head of the Prajna Hall is Kong Lin, who is my uncle, but his cultivation level is not much different from mine, and he is in the late stage of the fifth-grade Guiyuan realm.

The first seat of Bodhidharma Academy is Uncle Kongyin, a fourth-grade cave in the underworld. The important affairs of Tianbao Temple are usually handled by Uncle Kongyin.

Since the three leaders, there are a total of eighteen people in Tianbao Temple who have reached the fifth-grade Guiyuan realm, and I was one of them during my lifetime. "

Hearing this, Lu Qian looked back and glanced at Guo Tuan. She had said before that the highest cultivation level in Tianbao Temple was in the three major caves and underworlds.

Then, Lu Qian looked at Zhiyuan and asked, "Your position in Tianbao Temple is not low, right?"

Zhiyuan said: "I am in charge of the Discipline Academy in Tianbao Temple, and I am only half as good as the three leaders."

Lu Qian was a little surprised when he heard this. Although he expected that Monk Zhiyuan's status in Tianbao Temple would be high, he did not expect that he would be so high.

Theoretically, the Discipline Academy can be on par with Luohan Hall. Perhaps it is because Zhiyuan himself is one level lower than the "Kong" generation, which leads to his status being "slightly less than half" than the top three.

In this case, Zhiyuan should be very clear about Tianbao Temple.

Thinking of this, Lu Qian asked: "Is it true that there are no people above the fourth grade in Tianbao Temple?"

Zhiyuan said: "As far as I know, since all the third-level cultivators left the country hundreds of years ago, almost no third-level cultivators have appeared in so many years. In today's world, those who are most likely to reach the third-level Dharma state in cultivation , only two people.”

The realms of cultivators in Dali are divided into the first-level earthly immortal realm, the second-level heaven and human realm, the third-level Dharma-appearance realm, the fourth-level cave-underworld realm, the fifth-level return to the origin realm, the sixth-level true spirit realm, the seventh-level air sea realm, and the eighth-level channel connection. Realm, Nine-Rank Hundred-Refining Realm.

The seventh, eighth and ninth grades are collectively called the "lower third grade". The lower third level mainly focuses on physical training and Qi training, and is actually not fundamentally different from mortals, so it is also called the "mortal realm".

The fourth, fifth, and sixth grades are called the "middle third grade." Starting from the middle third grade, cultivators begin to condense the true spiritual energy and gradually possess extraordinary supernatural powers, so they are also called the "transcendent realm."

As for the upper third level, starting from the third level Dharma Realm, cultivators have begun to be fundamentally different from ordinary people.

The third level of Dharma Realm is the phase of Dharma, God and Buddha, swallowing the spirit of heaven and earth.

After reaching this level of cultivation, the cultivator no longer needs to take the path of "qi refining" and "spirit transformation", but can directly absorb the spiritual energy diffused in the world, and even some special techniques can absorb the sun and the moon. The essence is transformed into one's own true spiritual energy.

Although the third-level Dharma Realm is only one level different from the fourth-level Cave Underworld Realm, there is a huge difference between the "upper third-level" and the "middle third-level".

The third level is also known as "Stepping into Wonderland".

Walk on the path of an immortal.

The first-level cultivators are even called the "Earth Immortal Realm" and are immortals in the world.

The third-grade Dharma Realm is more significant to cultivators than the sixth-grade True Spirit Realm.

The strength gap between the Dharma Realm and the Underworld Realm is also very huge.

It is said that at that time, there were not many cultivators in Dali who had reached the "upper third level" level.

There are even a few figures in the first-grade fairyland.

However, the strange thing is that since the "upper third grade" in Dali collectively left the country, for hundreds of years, it has almost never been heard of anyone who can step into the upper third grade again.

It seems that the fourth level cave realm is the limit that human cultivators can reach.

At this time, Lu Qian heard Zhiyuan say that there were two people in this world who might have entered the third-level Dharma Realm, and immediately asked: "Who are these two people you are talking about?"

Zhiyuan said: "One is Master Xuantong, the head of Qingxuan Temple, and the other is Yu Tongzhao, the leader of Wentianjian and the current national master. Although there is no definite information, there is a high probability that the two of them have entered the third-level Dharma Realm. ."

Lu Qian was not surprised by the two people Zhiyuan mentioned.

Qingxuan Guan is the head of the sect, and its strength far exceeds that of other sects. Of course, there must be powerful people in charge.

For the imperial court to be able to compete with the sects in the world, in addition to the soldiers and horses under its command, it must also have top masters. This Zhiyuan is obviously very familiar with the imperial court, the world, and the masters of various forces.

Lu Qian took a breath and said, "Let me ask you your second question, which is about me."

Zhiyuan had obviously thought of it a long time ago. Before Lu Qian asked, he said directly: "Does the master want to ask about some of your friends in the inn in Quyang Town?"

Lu Qian nodded, looked at Zhiyuan, and asked: "There is a Bai Tan who has fallen into the hands of Tianbao Temple. Besides him, who else has fallen into your hands? Are they alive or dead now? "

Hearing this, Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "I don't know whether they live or die."

Seeing Lu Qian's unkind look, Zhiyuan hurriedly continued: "We broke into the inn and saw only two women in the guest room, one of whom was a human woman and the other was a snake demon.

At that time, Master Kongyin personally took action, thinking that he could capture them with one move, but he never thought that the snake girl was so good that she blocked Master Kongyin's blow.

The snake girl was very alert. Seeing that the situation was not good, she immediately turned into a flying snake, rolled up the human woman and ran away.

When she was leaving, she was struck by my Uncle Kongyin Master. Then……"

Lu Qian stood up and asked, "What next?"

Zhiyuan pondered for a moment and then said: "If she is a human being and falls prey to my Uncle Kongyin's move, then she will definitely die no matter where she escapes. However... the snake girl's true form is a rare one. It’s hard to say whether she can survive the alien snake demon..."

Lu Qian stared at Zhiyuan with his eyes open and asked, "Did you see everything you said with your own eyes?"

Monk Zhiyuan nodded and said, "Yes, I personally participated in this matter, and I was also present at the time."

Lu Qian asked again: "In other words, those two women did not fall into your hands?"

Zhiyuan nodded and said: "The flying snake transformed into a snake girl is extremely fast. I personally led people to chase it, but I couldn't catch up."

Lu Qian asked again: "Where is the black bear spirit?"

After hearing this, Zhiyuan was stunned and said, "Black bear? We...we didn't see the black bear spirit."

Seeing this, Lu Qian thought to himself: "It seems that Hei Wa probably went out at that time and escaped this difficulty by luck. Qing Lin... Qing Lin is really amazing, he was able to catch Kong Yin's move! "

Hearing that Qing Lin, Xiao Feng, and Hei Wa had all escaped, Lu Qian was surprised and relieved.

Things are not as bad as they could be.

Lu Qian sat back on the chair and said, "Tell me the truth about this matter."

"Yes."

Zhiyuan thought for a while and said: "This matter has to be learned from us that the imperial court suddenly started to attack the gods..."

"Master should know that the gods stationed in our various places are all sent by the Divine Court. Most of these gods have extraordinary magical powers."

"Later, for some unknown reason, the Divine Court suddenly severed contact with us. The gods left in the mortal world have since lost the source of their divine power, and their situation has also deteriorated."

"However, no matter how weak the gods are, they are still gods. Therefore, we never expected that the current emperor Zhao Heng would actually issue a god-catching order and suddenly start to capture the gods in the world."

"There must be a reason for such a big move by the imperial court. We guess it must be related to the half of the 'God Acting Picture' in Zhao Heng's hand. At this time, we suddenly received news that the imperial court was taking action in Pingyuan Lake outside Huliu City. To capture the plain lake water god.”

"At that time, we didn't dare to openly fall out with the court, so we only sent two people to quietly observe. However, what we didn't expect was that they actually stole the water god out secretly!"

"At this time, everyone in our temple is in trouble. The imperial court has not caught the Water God, and they will definitely not give up. If they know that it is our Tianbao Temple that is hindering it, the situation at that time will be greatly disadvantageous for us..."

At this time, Lu Qian interjected: "So, you imprisoned the Water God in the underground palace of Guanghua Temple? In this way, even if the court really finds out the whereabouts of the Water God, you can throw Guanghua Temple out and the matter will be yours. Tianbao Temple has nothing to do with it?"

Hearing these words, Zhiyuan looked up at Lu Qian with a surprised look on his face and said, "Master is wise, that was exactly what I was thinking at the time, and then I asked them to imprison the Water God in the underground palace of Guanghua Temple. The Buddha’s underground palace in Guanghua Temple is very mysterious and almost no one outside knows about it.”

Lu Qian thought to himself: "It's a pity that the court found out in the end. Tianbao Temple was very afraid of the court. However, the funny thing is that the court was also afraid of Tianbao Temple. They didn't dare to do it themselves, so they found Guo Tu and went to Guanghua Temple. To snatch the water god in the underground palace. This idea is exactly the same as Zhiyuan’s idea at that time.”

Zhiyuan continued: "Later, we reported the news to Qingxuan Guan. Unexpectedly, Qingxuan Guan took this matter very seriously. They immediately wrote back, asking us to protect this water god no matter what, even if we have to face the court. He would not hesitate to fall out.

At that time, we all found it very strange, but since Qingxuan Guan said this, we had to follow it. Then, I sent people to Guanghua Temple to prepare to bring the Water God to our Tianbao Temple. However, unexpectedly, by the time our people arrived at Guanghua Temple, something had happened there. "

Having said this, Zhiyuan sighed softly and said: "When we arrived at Guanghua Temple, all the monks in the temple had suffered, and the water god in the Buddha's underground palace had also disappeared.

At that time, Zhitong, my junior disciple who was sent to Guanghua Temple, once fought with a woman in the temple. We took this as a clue and mobilized a large number of people to investigate everywhere. Finally, we found out that the woman had entered Hedong Road. "

When Lu Qian left Guanghua Temple, he killed all the remaining monks in the temple, the soldiers of the court, and even the remaining fox girls in the underground palace.

Unexpectedly, this "mouth" was not stabbed to death in the end, and the traces were found by Tianbao Temple.

Tianbao Temple imprisoned Pingyuan Lake Water God in Guanghua Temple instead of bringing him back to his own temple. This gave Lu Qian the illusion that Tianbao Temple did not take the Water God too seriously.

The reality was exactly as he thought. Tianbao Temple itself was not very fond of the water god, otherwise it would not have placed her in Guanghua Temple.

Without Qingxuanguan's reply, the matter might have ended there.

Tianbao Temple could not ignore Qingxuan Guan's attitude; and from Qingxuan Guan's solemn attitude, Tianbao Temple obviously smelled something different, so they did not hesitate to mobilize a large amount of manpower to investigate Qinglin in just a few days. whereabouts.

When Lu Qian and the others left Gushan County overnight, no one saw them. It was extremely difficult to find their whereabouts.

It can also be seen from this that Tianbao Temple spent a lot of effort to find out the whereabouts of Qinglin.

At that time, everyone who had seen Lu Qian in Guanghua Temple died.

The last monk who escaped, the "Junior Brother Zhitong" as Zhiyuan called him, had only seen Qinglin and Heiwa.

Therefore, Tianbao Temple actually chased Qinglin's traces all the way to Hedong Road.

Lu Qian's original arrangement actually had no problems.

Unexpectedly, Qingxuan Guan suddenly intervened, making things more complicated.

The second thing that surprised Lu Qian was that one of the three highest-ranking divine monks in Tianbao Temple, Kongyin Divine Monk, actually took action in person, so much so that Qing Lin was caught off guard. He didn't even have time to deal with Jian Yuemen. Escaped in a hurry.

All of a sudden, the private moon palace that was originally unique to Lu Qian was exposed!

Baitan, who was recovering from his injuries in the Moon Palace, was also captured alive.

This Tianbao Temple is worthy of the name of "Two Buddhas". There are obviously powerful people in the temple.

If they don't take action, they will do it with a thunderous blow, never giving their opponents a chance to breathe.

Not to mention the routine of Calabash Baby saving grandpa, giving them away one by one since childhood, and as soon as he got started, he took out a being like the Sky Seal Divine Monk!
  Lu Qian has never encountered such a crisis since he traveled through time.

Therefore, he had to catch a monk from Tianbao Temple and find out the inside story, even if he did not hesitate to take the monk Zhiyuan as a paper groom.

The lack of key information is very fatal.

Because of this, after Lu Qian met the monks from Tianbao Temple at Linglong Inn last night, he deliberately took action in a high-profile manner and rescued the two people from Qingxuan Temple.

As expected, this attracted the attention of the monk from Tianbao Temple.

Then early this morning, Lu Qian deliberately went out alone and finally "fished" Monk Zhiyuan.

Lu Qian looked at the monk Zhiyuan in front of him and asked: "Then, your Tianbao Temple will directly ask the dignified monk Kongyin to come to Hedong Road to deal with this matter?"

Zhiyuan said: "The temple was originally planning to send my senior brother Zhilu here. At that time, I felt it was inappropriate. Since the water god is so important and has already had an accident, it would be fine if we don't take action. If we do, we must Be sure to win.

Therefore, I suggest that Uncle Kongyin personally take action, plus me, and we come to Hedong Road together. "
