Xianbang

The night had already submerged, and the icy night covered the entire Forbidden City like smooth silk.

Half an hour passed, and a huge coercion appeared again in the sky above the Forbidden City, as if a god had come to the city, awakening many people from their dreams.

"boom!"

In the depths of the Forbidden City, a barren mountain suddenly split from the middle, and a portal appeared between the barren mountains. A group of mist covered by dense light descended from between the clouds, flew into the portal, and then the entire barren mountain They were slowly merged together again, not a single plant or tree was damaged during the whole process, and it was impossible to tell from the outside that this barren mountain had been opened just now.

The barren mountain is a thousand meters high, and the mountain wind is blowing. A mass of earth and rocks at the foot of the mountain suddenly loosened, and a faint flame burst out from it. The flame burned the ground within one meter into scorched earth, and the flame faded away. , revealing Guo Yi's figure.

Guo Yi fixed his eyes, looked at the barren mountain in front of him, and said to himself: "It turns out that the Forbidden Tower is hidden under this barren mountain. No wonder I searched the entire Forbidden City and couldn't find it. Now I just wait for the bone The saint led away the first-generation imprisoned city lord."

The barren mountain is desolate, the ancient trees are dilapidated, and the night shadows are dancing. Standing under the old ancient trees, Guo Yi's body is motionless, and the breath in his body is completely contracted. Yi did not dare to be careless.

The cold wind howled, and there was a sound of foreign objects gnawing on the grass, but when Guo Yi turned his head to look, he saw nothing.

On the top of the barren mountain, there is a dilapidated ancient temple. A lonely Buddha lamp is lit in the temple. The golden light emits nine circles of Buddha light, illuminating the entire mountaintop indistinctly. As if a wick had been stirred by a hand from the underworld.

"call out!"

At this moment, a skeleton with a holy white light all over its body suddenly landed in front of the ruined temple. The bone saint looked around under the barren mountain, with a stiff smile on his face, and slightly pointed in one of the directions. Nodding, obviously it is confirming whether Guo Yi has come here.

"call!"

A bit of mysterious fire shot up from behind a certain ancient tree at the bottom of the barren mountain, rushed straight into the clouds, and then shattered and exploded like fireworks, turning into a ball of gorgeous fireworks.

After the bone sage saw this wisp of profound fire, he nodded in satisfaction, and then looked at the dilapidated ancient temple in front of him.

This is a temple made of ancient stones. The walls on all sides have been worn out, the tiles on the top are almost gone, and the ground is still covered with rubble. In the temple, there is only a clay sculpture in front of the magic lamp. The Buddha statues are spotless.It's a pity that only one corner of this Buddha statue is exposed, and it is impossible to see what it looks like.

I don’t know how many years no one has visited this ruined temple. Behind the temple stands a vicissitudes of old tree. The old tree looks like a person. The limbs, head, and nine orifices are almost intact, like a giant expounding. philosophy.There were five jackdaws parked on the tree. They didn't move, but made a shrill cry at night, as if five ghosts were howling.

The bone sage deliberately raised his voice, and laughed loudly: "The Bodhi tree, the most precious treasure of Buddhism, was suppressed by the five ghosts and turned into what it is now. What a pity, what a pity!"

After the bone sage finished speaking, he stepped on the ground, and the whole barren mountain was split open again. It shot out a holy light of Buddhism with one palm, and opened the hanging portal between the cracks to the ground. break open.

"boom!"

After a loud noise, the Bone Sage laughed loudly and said, "City Master, an old friend came to see you, and you won't come out to greet the guests?"

"call out!"

A ray of light flew out from the portal hanging between the cracks in the ground. This ray of light shot straight into the sky at an incredible speed. With Guo Yi's current eyesight, he could only see a phantom.

"Bone Saint, you are here to make trouble again. The Forbidden City cannot stand your toss. Let's fight outside the sky."

After the words came out, the first-generation Forbidden City Lord had already flew out first, and the Bone Sage laughed loudly, and then followed. It was naturally eager to lure the first-generation Forbidden City Lord away.Fighting outside the sky is exactly what it wants.

The Bone Sage and the first-generation city lord of the Forbidden City left, Guo Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and then slowly walked out of an ancient tree that was three meters thick.

The cultivation bases of these two people are both terrifyingly high. Although Guo Yi has gathered the breath of his whole body to the extreme, he was still noticed by the first generation of Youcheng city lord. Hidden, Guo Yi's dead body is already here.

These two people are really too powerful, even a slight aftermath can kill Guo Yi.

Guo Yi was dripping with cold sweat, let out a breath, and then stepped to the top of the barren mountain. There was still a tattered stone tablet in front of the ruined temple. On the broken stone tablet, the three ancient characters "Bodhi Temple" could still be vaguely seen.

Standing in front of the temple, the low voice of Buddha can be heard continuously in the ear, as if there are thousands of Buddhas explaining the meaning of Buddhism underground, and the knocking sound of the wooden fish is particularly clear, as if there is an ancient statue. It's like standing in Guo Yi's ear knocking fish and chanting scriptures.

"Is this the legendary bodhi tree?"

Guo Yi looked at the human-shaped old tree behind the ruined temple, and his heart throbbed endlessly. You must know that the Bodhi tree is related to a shocking treasure. Guo Yi saw the Bodhi tree standing in front of him, why wasn't he excited.

This ancient tree has lost all vitality, its bark has turned brownish yellow, and some parts have been cracked with dry cracks. There is not a single leaf on the tree. Who would recognize that this is the sacred Buddhist tree on Bodhi Mountain back then?

This Buddhist sacred tree appears to have been dead for many years!

"The bone sage seems to be deliberately telling me that this dead tree is a bodhi tree. What is its purpose? Does it want me to dig up this ancient tree?"

Guo Yi stroked his chin and carefully thought about the intention of the bone sage, he must not let it succeed, and finally he came to this conclusion.Guo Yi flew up and flew towards the portal between the cracks in the ground, but after a while Guo Yi flew back and stood in front of the Bodhi Temple again.

"It doesn't matter so much, the Bodhi tree is a big treasure, so we should dig it out first."

In the end, Guo Yi couldn't stand the temptation and planned to dig the Bodhi tree away, but before Guo Yi could uproot the Bodhi tree, the dilapidated Bodhi Temple next to the tree suddenly collapsed. Dust startled Guo Yi and quickly let go of his hands.

This Bodhi Temple has existed for 5000 years. I don’t know how many winds and rains it has experienced. Although it is dilapidated, it is not destroyed. But now this ancient temple has completely collapsed. What does this mean?

Although the ancient temple collapsed, the 5000-year-old Buddha lamp in the temple did not go out. Through the nine circles of light from the Buddha lamp, Guo Yi immediately saw the clay Buddha statue on the altar. look.

"Oh my god! This is not a Buddha statue, it is simply a devil."

This Buddha statue is as small as a real person, but it has blue-faced fangs, a foot-long red tongue, and black hair all over its body. It looks like a ghost, very ferocious and terrifying.

Barren hills, ancient temples, demon statues!Everything seemed too weird, as if they had come to a forbidden place of death.

"If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't be greedy. Hey, Lord Demon, I only want this dead tree. Don't get angry. I will pull out the ancient tree and leave immediately."

Guo Yi exerted all his strength to pull up the Bodhi tree, but this dead old tree seemed to be stuck deep into the ground, and he couldn't move it at all.

Just when Guo Yi was at a loss, the light of the Buddha lamp suddenly flickered slightly, and the voice of an old man came into Guo Yi's ears from nowhere: "The Bodhi tree was suppressed by the five ghosts, you have to pull it out. Bodhi tree, you must kill the five ghosts first."

"Who? Who's talking?" Guo Yi felt a chill in the back of his head.

"The old man is sealed in this ghost statue in front of your eyes." The old man said weakly.

Guo Yi looked at the ferocious ghost statue in front of him carefully, a flash of understanding suddenly flashed in his eyes, and said, "Are you Master Bodhi?"

The ghost statue was still eerie, but at this time it spit out human words and sighed: "Once Bodhi died, he died 5000 years ago. Now Bodhi is just a devil."

Guo Yi knew that the person who was suppressed in this ghost statue must be Master Bodhi. Although he has advanced Buddhism, he still couldn't pass his level. The massacre that year planted a knot in his heart.

Guo Yi didn't intend to comfort Master Bodhi, because the other party was an eminent Buddhist monk, and he understood all the truths better than Guo Yi. If he couldn't untie the knot in his heart, he might be trapped in this ghost statue for the rest of his life. However, if he untied the knot in his heart, he might break the ghost image by himself, and then walk out of the cage.

Guo Yi asked: "Senior, how can the five ghosts be exterminated and the Bodhi tree revived?"

"The Bodhi tree is dead. Only the Fodu Spring in Dongmo can bring it back to life. Of course, if you kill the five ghosts, you can take the Bodhi tree away from this place." Ghost said.

"Then how can we get rid of the five ghosts?"

The five ghosts can kill Buddhist sacred trees, but Guo Yi doesn't think he can kill them.

The ghost image said: "These five fierce ghosts are transformed by the ghosts of five top fighters. Before they were alive, each of them was not much weaker than me. With your combat power, you can't destroy them at all."

"Damn, then why are you talking so much nonsense?" Guo Yi said and was about to turn around and leave.

"Wait a minute." The ghost image stopped Guo Yi and said, "Although your combat power can't destroy them, the will-o'-the-wisp token on you can subdue them."

"How do you know that I have a ghost fire token?" Guo Yi said in a low voice with some scruples.

The ghost image was silent for a moment, and then said: "Because I once saw the ghost fire token in the hands of a female ghost, and now I feel its breath on your body."

The ghost fire order has always been in charge of Yan Luo, the head of the four ghost kings. Why can Master Bodhi see the ghost fire order? Could it be that he and Yan Luo are still old acquaintances?
