Chapter 743 The Secret of Damingwang Temple

Leave the country.

Inside Damingwang Temple.

Amber slowly opened his eyes, and everything in front of him was still the same as when he left.

The old monk's meditation room is at the back of the Dharma Courtyard. As an elder, he has an independent courtyard and is served by special novices.

What I have to do on a daily basis is very simple. Apart from giving lectures to the disciples who choose the Acalanatha Sutra, there is basically nothing else to do. Most of the time, I am busy dealing with the side effects of the practice.

What needs to be done is very simple, which is to slaughter all kinds of life.

When it comes to the old monk’s level, ordinary people are completely useless. Only opponents who have reached a certain level of life can break the murderous intent of the Acalanatha Sutra.

This cycle can be long or short. If you have been practicing in the temple, then it can be once every three months at the latest. But if you fight with others, it may become once a month or even once every ten days.

If left alone, he will end up becoming a madman with no reason and only knows how to kill.

Originally, Amber was somewhat interested in the cultivation methods of this world, but at this moment, she had completely lost interest.

At his current level, the thickness of his life might not even be comparable to those of gods and Buddhas. There is no need to find a weakness for himself just for the sake of things.

As long as you have enough strength, that's enough.

Now let’s take a look at the situation here before talking about other things.

Inside the Damingwang Temple, an extremely secretive temple, hundreds of candles were placed on racks on both sides, illuminating the interior of the temple, which should have been completely dark, with a bright red glow.

At the shrine's location, there was a pitch-black, strange statue with three heads and nine arms, looking down at everything below.

An old monk, who was skinny and had skin hanging on his face like orange peel, was kowtowing again and again with great respect.

With every movement, the eerie aura emanating from the statue becomes stronger.

I don't know how much time passed, but the old monk finally stopped moving. His dry lips opened slightly and a sound like a leaking bellows came out.

"come in"

As the words fell, the young monk who had been waiting outside for a long time lowered his head and walked into the temple with great respect.

"Master, the life lamp of Master Kong Chan's great-grandfather has gone out, but some disciples said that he is still alive and well in the temple. What is going on?"

The young monk’s Dharma name is Liaochen. He is the eldest disciple of the head monk of Bodhi Temple and the one with the highest cultivation among the younger generation. He is the leader of the Righteous Alliance held every three years.

“Empty Zen.”

The old monk kneeling on the cushion is the mysterious abbot of Damingwang Temple. He is also the senior brother of the one in Damo Temple, and his Buddhist name is Kongwu.

He was seen chewing these two words in his mouth, and after a long time, he forced out an extremely terrifying smile: "It seems that a little bug has sneaked in, and it's a stupid bug. It just so happens that Garuda has been hungry for a long time."

"Disciple understands."

Liaochen shuddered when he heard this, as if he had thought of something extremely terrifying, and even his voice trembled: "Disciple, I'll take my leave."

"Liaochen, when you have time in the future, you can come here more often to worship the Mingwang. He will protect you."

Sora said softly.

"The disciple understands."

Lechen didn't dare to look up, let alone show any abnormality, and just walked out of the temple step by step.

In the entire Damingwang Temple, there is only one statue of Mingwang enshrined, and that is the one that Abbot Kongwu is kneeling to worship.

But this person does not protect the disciples in the temple as the other party said.

Instead, they are treated as captive food.

Liaochen had witnessed with his own eyes that the abbot swallowed alive a fellow disciple in the Bodhi Temple who possessed a congenital Buddha body.

If it were just that, it would be fine. What really frightened him was that the belly of the Mingwang statue also bulged. Although it was only for a brief moment, he was confident that he was not mistaken.

There is only one way to escape a similar fate, and that is to keep getting stronger. The speed must be fast and not be stuck by any bottleneck.

Gathering his thoughts, Liaochen strode out of the temple and walked towards the Dharma Academy.

Since the abbot said it was a stupid bug, then solve it the way a stupid bug would.

After a while.

"Brother Liao Xin, is Grandmaster Kong Chan here?" "In the Chan room."

"Thank you."

Lechen strode past the letter and walked straight towards the courtyard where Amber was.

"Uncle Master Kongchan, the abbot wants to see you!"

He didn't go in, but stood outside and shouted.

Being able to kill an elder in Damingwang Temple, he doesn't look like a simple person at all.

It just so happens that Liaochen cherishes his life very much.

squeak~
The door of the Zen room was opened, and Amber, wearing a monk's robe and looking like a Zen monk, walked out.

"Brother Abbot is coming out of retreat?"

"Yes, I'm waiting for you in the stupa."

Lechen said this with great respect.

The stupa of Damingwang Temple is used to house the remains of monks who have passed away, because the skills they practiced during their lifetime turned into very delicious food for certain alien creatures after their death.

For example, the Garuda that Abbot Kongwu mentioned before.

A very ferocious and strange bird.

"Let's go then."

Amber had a smile on her face and raised her hand to make a gesture to lead the way.

He was just thinking about how to find the abbot who had not appeared for many years, but unexpectedly, someone brought him a pillow just when he felt sleepy.

"please."

Liaochen bowed respectfully and then walked in front.

The moment I turned around, cold sweat broke out on my face.

The reason why he was able to practice in the Bodhi Temple was naturally because of his very special physique, which is called the Alaya body in Buddhism.

It means having the ability to peek into fate.

It’s just that due to his relatively low realm, Liaochen is currently just far superior to ordinary monks and his cultivation speed is extremely fast.

At that moment just now, this uncle Master Kong Chan actually gave him a similar feeling as when he saw the statue of Mingwang.

But how is this possible?

Although he was not sure what was going on here, there was one thing he was very sure of: this was not something he could interfere with.

Walking carefully along the way, Amber saw the towering stupa with carvings of dragons and wind at the foot of the mountain behind Damingwang Temple.

The shape was similar to the Linglong Tower in his memory, except that there were no windows and the only entrance and exit was a one-story door.

"I won't go in. The abbot is waiting for you inside."

Liaochen stopped.

"Ah."

Amber nodded in her usual empty-chan manner and strode forward.

The moment he approached the gate, the tightly closed door suddenly opened, revealing what was inside.

Faintly, one can see many white objects piled randomly on the ground, forming shapes similar to small graves.

Phew! !

Amber paused slightly as the bird chirped with a hint of impatience.

Lechen’s whole body tensed up.

"I guess Garuda was scolded by the abbot again. It is usually very greedy and has not changed at all over the years."

"Oh? Really? Liaochen, why is your face so pale?"
