Chapter 1168: Chapter 1167: The Great Brahma Heaven Temple’s Probe
Pure Yang Qi Qiankun Ring?
Lu Zheng’s eyes brightened, looking at Li Lingyu with a slightly strange gaze, thinking of his talent and cultivation speed...
Could it be?
He just called me big brother!!!
The Qiankun Ring shone brightly, attracting the attention of everyone present, even those having meals and the monks from the Great Brahma Heaven Temple turned their eyes over.
"It turns out to be a Daoist from the Chunyang Palace." A slightly thin middle-aged scholar stroked his beard and said, "What a good magical treasure, Chunyang Palace truly lives up to being a major Daoist Sect, giving disciples such Dharma Artifacts."
"That is because his master is capable, and I can’t even see through that child’s cultivation." An elder squinted his eyes slightly and said with some envy.
Not everyone who attends the ceremony at Fahua Temple is a master. The temple does not discriminate; as long as they can withstand the Buddha Sound Discussion Method at the scene, they will not be driven away.
So, in Lu Zheng’s view, the people attending the ceremony had varying levels of cultivation; the most powerful, Master Lin Yi, had thousands of years of cultivation, but the weakest only had a few decades of Dao Practice.
The elder who had just answered the words of the people at Fahua Temple was only three or four hundred years cultivated.
How could there be so many masters in the world, who happened to be guests at Fahua Temple at this time?
At this moment, Li Lingyu displayed the magical treasure, revealing Pure Yang True Fire, and some with sharp eyes realized that Master Lin Yi and his disciples were indeed from the Chunyang Palace.
The white-bearded elder was somewhat embarrassed, subconsciously turned his head away, took a sip of tea, and then started eating porridge again.
On the other side, seeing the young Li Lingyu skillfully control such magical treasure, the monks from Fahua Temple and Great Brahma Heaven Temple all showed admiration.
"Chunyang Palace truly has good luck."
"No, this child’s body also has Buddha Power, he appears to be undergoing Buddhist and Daoist Dual Cultivation!"
"Impressive!
"Amitabha Buddha!"
An elder monk from the Great Brahma Heaven Temple couldn’t help but use the Dharma Eye, a Bright Wheel appearing within his pupils, looking toward Li Lingyu.
"Monk, you have gone too far."
Although Master Lin Yi was speaking with Lu Zheng, he had been paying attention to Li Lingyu. Seeing the elder monk from the Great Brahma Heaven Temple trying to investigate Li Lingyu’s foundation, he raised his hand, enveloping Li Lingyu in Pure Yang light.
"Amitabha Buddha!" The elder monk chanted the Buddha’s name and smiled slightly, "Old Monk sees something he fancies, Fellow Daoist, don’t take offense. I didn’t expect that disciples from Chunyang Palace would be such Buddhist geniuses."
Master Lin Yi raised an eyebrow, chuckled, and looked at the elder monk with a bit of hostility, "What, does Master Qiu Yan have thoughts?"
The elder monk, also Master Qiu Yan of the Great Brahma Heaven Temple, although illuminated by Pure Yang light, did not avoid it, but smiled warmly, "No, Old Monk just admires the talent and beauty of the Central Plains and has nothing but envy for the Chunyang Palace."
As he smiled, he glanced around the group on the opposite side, indicating that the Pure Yang light shining into the Divine Soul did not intimidate him.
However, at the next moment, Master Qiu Yan’s eyes couldn’t help but shine.
"Master Qiu Yan, this place is the Da Jing Zhongjing, Fahua Temple!"
Zen Master Xingguan, accompanying in the main position, flashed his eyes, and the dense Buddha Power permeated the back hall, loosely covering Master Qiu Yan, aggressive yet uninviting.
"Hehe, Old Monk was being abrupt, just seeing this child’s spiritedness, couldn’t help himself, Amitabha Buddha, good, good!"
After saying this, Master Qiu Yan naturally withdrew the Bright Wheel Dharma Eye, clasped his hands in a gesture, apologized to the people accompanying him from Fahua Temple, and continued eating.
"Amitabha Buddha!" Zen Master Xingguan also chanted the Buddha’s name.
Seeing Master Qiu Yan withdraw his spell and express apology, Master Lin Yi snorted, withdrawing the Pure Yang light protecting Li Lingyu.
Li Lingyu shrank his neck, "Master, I just..."
"You didn’t do anything wrong, what’s wrong with showing off your magical treasure when seeing friends." Master Lin Yi waved his big hand, "If someone is being presumptuous, your master will back you up."
Lu Zheng gave a thumbs up.
Regardless, he has decided to be a good big brother to Li Lingyu!
On the other side, Li Lingyu also cheered instantly, "Master is the best!"
...
After eating a vegetarian meal at Fahua Temple, the monks from the Great Brahma Heaven Temple bid farewell and left.
However, before leaving, several monks, especially Master Qiu Yan, specifically came to say a few pleasantries to Master Lin Yi and Lu Zheng’s group before bidding farewell.
Thereafter, Lu Zheng, led by a young monk from Fahua Temple, toured the temple, respectfully offering incense in several important halls, under the permeating Heart Sutra and Buddha essence, seeming almost like a layman of the Buddhist Sect.
This scene left the monks of Fahua Temple marveling.
They watched Li Lingyu beside them, then Lu Zheng offering incense in the Buddha temple, feeling quite complicated.
What’s going on?
Why do the younger generation of Daoists not differentiate between vegetarian and non-vegetarian?
How come besides Daoist texts, they all practice Buddhist Techniques too?
What’s more, they cultivate even better than most monks!
Are they planning to take over the monks’ jobs?
This is indeed embarrassing!
The stewards of Fahua Temple were already considering whether to let the new generation of talented monks in the temple practice Daoist Techniques as well.
"Though the little Daoists from Chixiao Temple haven’t been seen practicing Buddhist Dharma yet, it might be a blinding technique. Chunyang Palace and White Cloud Temple are major Daoist Sects!"
...
Regardless of the complex thoughts of Fahua Temple monks, after finishing worship at the Buddha halls, Lu Zheng politely bid farewell and left.
Leaving with them were Master Lin Yi and his disciples, who had stayed the night at Fahua Temple.
"I really didn’t expect to see a Buddha Sound Discussion Method along the way."
The group had already left Fahua Temple, and at Lu Zheng’s invitation, Master Lin Yi and his disciples also sat in his carriage to return to Zhongjing together.
They had come from the West River Dao, arriving at Fahua Temple first, yet hadn’t entered Zhongjing.
Thus, Lu Zheng’s group enjoyed a meal at Fahua Temple, while Master Lin Yi’s two disciples conveniently hitched a ride in Lu Zheng’s carriage.
"Why don’t you two live in the Prince’s Mansion for a while?" Jing Qianyu invited.
"No need, we disciples travel leisurely, staying in an inn is more convenient." Master Lin Yi waved his hand, turned to Lu Zheng, and said in an indifferent tone, "If you have time, take a trip to West River Dao. Don’t forget to visit Chunyang Palace; my senior brother often talks about your wine."
Lu Zheng laughed heartily, "Dare not refuse, but we meet by chance, senior, and Lingyu should stay one night at the Prince’s Mansion. After all, we’ve had a few meals of takeout, tonight I’ll cook, how about it?"
Master Lin Yi raised an eyebrow, winked, and chuckled, "Then this poor Daoist won’t be polite."
Li Lingyu, behind him, made a mischievous face, making several ladies laugh.
