Chapter 35: The Ever-changing Demons Without Phases (August 200)
The number of monks is actually very small compared to ordinary people. Often, a sect with dozens of people is already considered a lot, such as Feiyun Temple, which is less than ten people. However, there are tens of thousands of monks who can be considered monks in the holy land of Buddhism. Among them, there are thousands of monks who can be considered mid-level in the world of practice, and there are more than 800 monks who can preach and teach ordinary monks.
In terms of cultivation, Nalanda Temple is the well-deserved first in the world of cultivation, and even the five major sects of Taoism are far inferior to those of Taoism. However, there are more monks at the top of the cultivation world, and the existence of Fairy Qingyu can balance the strength between Buddhism and Taoism.
Nalanda Temple is a huge scale, far exceeding the imperial palace in any human kingdom, but the most precious wealth of Nalanda Temple is a volume of wordless scriptures. The Sutra Pavilion that worships wordless scriptures has as many as nine million volumes of scriptures. It is said that when you walk into it, you can feel the wandering souls of monks who have spent their hard work in the Sutra Pavilion to analyze scriptures floating inside.
The highest status and status master in Nalanda Temple did not live elsewhere, but always stayed in the Sutra Pavilion to comprehend Buddhist scriptures and understand the Buddhist meaning.
At this time, it had been half a month since Li Jilia received the Shrine Pearl. A corpse was placed outside the Sutra Pavilion, and the master of Nalanda Temple also came out of the Sutra Pavilion.
Next to the body were two black-clothed monks with cold expressions, both of whom were law enforcers of the Precepts Hall of Nalanda Temple. They not only enforce the temple rules, but also knew the secrets of various schools in the world of practice.
One of the monks in black first met the Lord of Fa, and then said, "Lingyun went out to the secular world and arrived at the capital of Jin State, but was killed for no reason. We checked his wounds and traced the remaining soul memories of Lingyun. We found that he was blinded by sharp claws, but the fatal injury was sword energy and thunder sound. It was okay to be blinded by his eyes, but the man was so cruel that he took Lingyun's life. He also asked the Lord of Fa to issue an order to let us catch the murderer."
The Master of Dharma said: "You already have a partner of doubt?"
Another monk in black said: "For nearly a thousand years, there have been 178 people who died under the sword energy and thunder sound. These 178 people were killed by thirteen people. Only two of these thirteen people have killed people with sword energy and thunder sound in the past thirty years. One is Ji Liao, the young owner of the late Four Seasons Villa, and the other is Mu Zhenzi of Feiyun Temple. Mu Zhenzi once killed the four ghosts in Xiangxi in the desert a hundred miles away from Kuangsha City, and others are now in the capital."
The Master of Dharma said: "So you think the murderer is Mu Mako?"
The monk in black who spoke at first said, "At least 70% sure it is him."
The Master of Dharma shook his head and said, "The murderer has someone else."
As soon as he flicked his sleeve, a soft Buddha light emerged from the cassock and shone on the corpse of the ascetic monk Lingyun. The fatal wound on his chest also changed. The wound that was originally wounded by sword energy and Lei Yin completely turned into another appearance.
The second monk in black who spoke changed drastically. He knew all the allusions in the world of cultivation and recognized them at a glance. The origin of the wound was blurted out: "This is a fatal injury caused by the Yang Crystal of the ever-changing and formless demons."
The Master of Dharma said: "Yes, Xuanji, why do you think the Wuying Demon do this?"
He asked the first monk in black who spoke.
Xuan Ji said, "Disciple guesses that he is trying to blame Mu Zhenzi. Could it be that Wuxiang Demon has a grudge with Mu Zhenzi? But with Wu Zhenzi's ability, even if Mu Zhenzi knows sword energy and thunder sound, as long as he has not yet achieved the elixir, how could he be the opponent of Wu Zhenzi?"
People in the cultivation world do not know what kind of cultivation level the Wuying Demon is, and no one has even seen his true face, let alone know whether he is a man or a woman.
Every time he appears, he has a different face.
Even if he appears in front of you, and if he doesn't tell you, it will be difficult for you to know that it is him.
The ability of the formless demon has such a skill mainly comes from the ever-changing changes recorded in the Demon Sutra. It is precisely because of this that he wants to kill someone, which is simply unpredictable.
Unless a monk becomes a pill, the formless demon can be afraid.
Because the monk Dancheng monk was full of magic and others attacked him, he could immediately react. Therefore, to monks above Dancheng, normally, they could only speak with their strength.
The Master of Dharma asked the second monk in black who spoke, "Xuanmio, what do you think?"
Xuan Mie hesitated for a while and said, "My views and Senior Brother Xuan Ji are roughly the same, but there is one thing that is still discussed, that is, the Faceless Demon should not have a grudge against Mu Zhenzi, otherwise he would not have to blame Mu Zhenzi. There must be someone around Mu Zhenzi that our Landa Temple can deal with. He may be coveting things on Mu Zhenzi."
The Master of Dharma nodded and said, "Yes, you can think that this step is already precious. Xuan Ji, tell me what is worthy of the coveting of the Wuying Demon on Mu Zhenzi?"
Xuan Ji said: "The most precious thing on Mu Zhenzi is the sword energy and thunder sound, the jade liquid and the alchemy scripture. I heard that he had recently obtained a strange treasure, which was a blood-colored umbrella. However, judging from the information, the breath level of the blood umbrella is still less than the level of Taoist elixirs."
The Master of Dharma said again: "Xuan Mie, what do you think is the most interested in the Wuying Demon?"
Xuan Mie Dao: "The Wuying Demon offended many people, so it is not a particularly precious thing, so it is difficult to attract him. What he desires most is how to make up for the shortcomings of the ever-changing martial arts."
The Master of Dharma said: "Yes, the ever-changing changes come from the Heavenly Demon Sutra. They are both divine objects of the same level as the Wordless Sutra and the Emperor Sutra of the Five Taoist Sects in our temple. However, both the Emperor Sutra and the Wordless Sutra are magnificent and upright divine objects, while the Heavenly Demon Sutra is strange and unpredictable. It is said that the magical techniques and magical skills recorded above have their flaws. Therefore, those who have been practicing the ability to shock the world and rarely show off their own flaws because they are afraid of showing too much, and their enemies figure out their own flaws.
The plot was to die in the end. Maybe Mu Zhenzi was planning to make up for the defects of the Heavenly Demon Sutra, so she was plotted by Wu Ying Demon. But this matter has nothing to do with us, so you don’t have to care. Moreover, like Wu Ying Demon, you don’t know how many innocent people have been killed, Ling Yun is just one of them. Since he has exposed his demonic trail and deliberately blamed Mu Zhenzi, he obviously would not leave Jin easily. You two went down the mountain to collect Wu Ying Demon. This is also a merit."
Xuan Mie and Xuan Ji said at the same time: "Abide by the law."
The Master of Dharma said softly: "You all go down, I will recite a volume of the sutra for Lingyun."
After hearing this, the two monks bowed one after another.
The Master of Dharma sat cross-legged in front of Ling Yun's corpse, looked at his blind eyes deeply, shook his head, and thought to himself: "Master Beiluo, is it that you are guarding the monk named Mu Zhenzi?"
