Transmigration begins with archery training

The winding mountain road was filled with pilgrims coming to offer incense.

On the boundary marker next to it, three large characters are engraved: Jingang Temple.

This place is none other than the largest Buddhist holy site in Xieyuedao.

It seems...

They were captured and taken to the Vajra Temple after crossing the river.

Chen Sanshi lay in wait in the mountains and forests, finally managing to catch a lone Buddhist disciple. After dealing with him, he disguised himself as the disciple and infiltrated the Vajra Temple.

The monks in the temple came and went, discussing the recent events that had occurred on Xieyue Road.

"Have you heard? The Wang and Zhang families were found to have practiced evil magic along with Pujue Temple. They were completely eradicated in just three days."

"Pujue Temple? Isn't Abbot Pujue our abbot's junior brother? Does he also practice evil arts?"

"It must be that his lifespan is about to end, but he is suffering in vain and cannot find a way out, so he has resorted to this desperate measure."

"In short, after the three families were eliminated, many people felt that the Holy Maiden had arrived and the Bodhisattva had appeared to rid the people of harm, and the incense offerings in the various temples in the area more than doubled."

"Speaking of the Holy Maiden, do you know why the Purgatory Array was activated at the border?"

"Why?"

"It is said that Chen Lei from Dongsheng Shenzhou came here to cause trouble, and he is accompanied by a particularly powerful demon."

"This demon is extremely powerful; he injured the Holy Maiden and Elder Xuandu all by himself."

"In order to subdue this demon, not only was the Purgatory Array activated, but even Elder Guiyun from the Three Star Path personally came here!"

"Even Elder Guiyun has arrived?!"

"Tsk tsk..."

"..."

"My fellow disciples."

Chen Sanshi interrupted their conversation, "Just now I saw some seniors bringing someone back, was it Chen Lei?"

"No."

A fat monk shook his head and said, "It's that evil god who's been causing a ruckus lately, called something like the Myriad Spirits Candle Illumination True Lord and a little demoness. Oh, and it seems this evil god is Chen Lei's son."

"Having a son who is an evil god, Chen Lei is indeed no good either!"

"I've heard that little evil god is indeed very strange; he can..."

The group started whispering among themselves again.

Who arrested him?

Chen Sanshi then asked, "Our abbot?"

"Junior brother, are you confused? Our abbot is guarding the great formation at the border."

The fat monk said, "The one who brought people back is Master Jianzhen from Mount Sumeru. He is the junior brother of Elder Guiyun and Master Miaotan!"

"Master Jianzhen?"

Chen Sanshi continued to inquire about this, which might be news of the enemy he was about to face: "Junior brother, you are dull-witted, how come you have never heard of this person?"

It's normal that you haven't heard of it.

The fat monk spoke eloquently: "This Master Jianzhen is said to be not a native of our Xiniu Hezhou. He drifted here from Dongsheng Shenzhou more than 30 years ago. He was spotted by Zen Master Guiyun and accepted as a disciple on behalf of his master, becoming the last closed-door disciple of the Supreme Elder."

"I've heard of this senior before."

A thin monk chimed in: "It is said that even after entering the Buddhist order, they still eat meat and drink alcohol, and are known as the 'Wine and Meat Arhats'! Yet Zen Master Guiyun says that he has extremely deep wisdom and will surely attain enlightenment in the future."

"Such an extraordinary person?"

Chen Sanshi feigned surprise and said, "I wonder where Master Jianzhen is now? Junior brother wants to go and pay him a visit; perhaps he can receive a few words of Dharma transmission!"

"Master Jianzhen has just returned; he should be in the Demon Suppression Prison."

The fat monk said casually, "However, I've heard that this Master Jianzhen has a bad temper, and many people have been rebuffed by him. I advise you not to go looking for trouble."

"Thank you, senior brother, for reminding me."

Chen Sanshi clasped his hands together in prayer.

He quietly left the crowd and, after asking around, slowly found the location of the "Demon Suppression Prison".

The so-called Demon Suppression Prison is actually a dungeon used to imprison demons and evil cultivators, and it is located in the back mountain.

Currently, all the elders of the Vajra Temple have been ordered to go out to guard the border, leaving the temple empty and with few high-level cultivators.

Therefore, after changing his appearance several times, Chen Sanshi successfully obtained the token and infiltrated the Demon Suppression Prison.

He removed his disguise, drew the Dragon Abyss Sword in the narrow space, and cautiously walked forward.

The dark passageway was engraved with dense Buddhist runes, and the low growls of unknown spirit beasts echoed from the darkness, while eerie incense flames burned all around.

Chen Sanshi inquired along the way and learned that the monk Jianzhen was in the late stage of the Golden Body Realm, which was a level higher than his own mid-stage.

Moreover, it is rumored that he has extremely deep "wisdom roots," and he is probably not an ordinary golden-bodied cultivator.

In addition, the formations in this dungeon mean that if a fight breaks out and people cannot be evacuated quickly, high-level cultivators will immediately return.

Thinking of this, Chen Sanshi became even more focused and walked all the way to cell number A, where he stood at the corner and eavesdropped on the sounds inside.

"Elder Jianzhen, what should we do with these two demons you captured? Should we just use the Demon-Slaying Blade to convert them?"

"You don't have to worry!"

The monk Jianzhen rebuked him, saying, "I have my own plans."

After he finished speaking, he strode forward.

"boom--"

Chen Sanshi had been waiting for a long time. After accumulating his true energy to the extreme, he suddenly unleashed it. The Dragon Abyss Sword was like a fire dragon emerging from the earth, illuminating the entire dark prison. It roared and tore through the void, suddenly slashing towards the monk's location.

"clang--"

A flash of Buddha's light.

Before lightning could strike, a demon-slaying staff appeared out of thin air and forcefully blocked the Dragon Abyss Sword.

Seeing that the monk was shouting sternly, "Who are you, you fiend? How dare you! Today I'm going to chop you up and eat you with my wine!"

He roared, about to unleash his golden body, when he suddenly heard a familiar voice in his ear.

"Senior brother?"

"..."

The monk paused for a moment, then looked through the blazing firelight and saw that the person holding the sword looked very familiar.

His pupils constricted sharply: "Junior Brother?!"

"Fifth Senior Brother, is it really you?!"

Chen Sanshi found it hard to believe.

The last disciple of the Supreme Elder of this Buddhist sect was actually his fifth senior brother, Meng Guangxin!

Many years ago.

The eldest brother pursued his own path, so he left with his second and fifth brothers, and they were never heard from again for decades.

He never imagined he would run into them here.

Chen Sanshi quickly sheathed his sword: "Senior brother, why has even your voice changed?!"

"Hey!"

Meng Guangxin slapped his bald head and said with a grin, "In recent years, I've been practicing the Buddhist Lion's Roar Kung Fu, and that's how I turned out!"

"Junior brother, you've really done something remarkable all these years!"

"Even in Xiniu Hezhou, I've heard plenty about your deeds!"

"Senior brother is truly remarkable."

Chen Sanshi exclaimed, "Truly, everyone has their own unique talents. After entering the Buddhist order, your cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, and you are already one of the best among your fellow disciples."

Cultivating through incense and deities is often much faster than cultivating through immortality or martial arts, but even so, Meng Guangxin's cultivation speed is definitely among the fastest.
