Chapter 2360: The Art of Divination
ld apart from the peak of the Void-Dwelling realm.Hua Tianpu let out a hearty laugh: "Old man, I'm here to inform you all about something. This time, the quota for the Heavenly Demon Showdown from Tia..."It's like this, ten days ago, my Tianlong Temple was suddenly attacked by the Demon Sect..."
The Dharma master began to speak, explaining that ten days prior, the hidden Demonic sect had suddenly attacked the Heavenly Dragon Temple.
It instantly roused a large number of powerful cultivators, even including some who had reached the Mahayana stage.
Tianlong Temple is just an eight-star sect, and the highest cultivator in the temple is only at the peak of the Void Cave. Originally, their strength was insufficient, and coupled with the sudden attack, they suffered heavy casualties.
In the end, everyone, led by Abbot Xu Wu of Fang Zhang Temple, took refuge in the Tianfo Pagoda of Tianlong Temple.
The Heavenly Buddha Pagoda was originally the guardian pagoda of the temple, protected by formations, and Buddhist treasures had a suppressive effect on demonic cultivators at the level of attributes.
This way the strong fighters of the demon sect were kept outside. However, those people didn't leave; instead, they set up an array throughout Ti Long Temple, completely trapping them inside.
At the beginning, the people of Tianlong Temple thought that if they maintained this stalemate for a while, the other party would naturally withdraw. However, later they found that things were not as simple as they thought.
The other party was clearly well-prepared this time. The formation they set up was extremely powerful, continuously generating demonic energy to erode the Heavenly Buddha Pagoda.
Over time, the Buddha's light of the Tiānfó Tǎ became increasingly faint, and the formation began to loosen. It wouldn't be long before it completely collapsed.
This is already the last line of defense for the entire Shaolin Temple. If even the Heavenly Buddha Pagoda is broken, what will follow is the destruction of the entire sect.
Desperation forced Master Xuwu to once again wield the Buddhist treasure, Vajra Staff, shattering a path open and allowing the Eight Great Vajras of his sect to break free and seek help.
"Speaking of this, Fa Xiang let out a long sigh: 'This time, the Demon Sect has deployed too many experts. Our eight people came out and scattered in eight directions to flee, but every direction has strong pursuers.'"
I was seriously injured when we were breaking out, and with the two people chasing behind me who were almost as powerful as I was, my injuries worsened as we ran.
"Fortunately, I met this kind benefactor later, or else this old monk would have gone to see Buddha already."
After finishing, he clasped his hands together and addressed Ye Bufan, “This old monk thanks the young master for saving his life.”
"Don't mention it, Master."
Ye Bufan waved his hand and then asked, "Didn't the Demon Gate always hide in the shadows Why did they suddenly start attacking Tiangong Temple Is there something hidden"
“This old monk isn’t too sure either,” Fa Xiang said. “Because everything happened so suddenly, we had no preparation whatsoever, not even time to request aid from the major sects.”
However, a hundred years ago in that great war, my Shaolin Temple was the main force in assassinating the Demon Sect.
That is precisely why they suffered such heavy losses. Before, they were the Nine Star Sect, but after that battle, they plummeted to become the Eight Star.
Ye Bufan was not from the Kunlun Continent, and he didn't know what happened in the war a hundred years ago.
The Dharma Master didn't say anything more. He turned around and looked at Xi Men Jia Yin with a pleading expression: “Sect Leader Xi Men, saving a life is like putting out a fire.”
"I have been out here for some time now, Tianfo Pagoda is always in danger of being conquered. Please lend a hand and rescue us, or Shaolin Temple will be finished."
Ximen Jiayin frowned slightly. Logically speaking, the Jiumofan Immortal Palace and the Wuliang Hall were both reputable sects. At this time, they should have extended a helping hand to Tianlong Temple.
But she knew Ye Bufan's current situation. After consecutively killing the four elders of Wu Liang Dian, once Sect Leader Qian Wujie came knocking, only she would be able to deal with him.
I just received a great favor from someone, it wouldn't be right to leave now.
She thought for a moment and said, "Doctor Ye Xian, how about we go to Tianlong Temple together to offer assistance"
In her mind, as long as Ye Bufan was by her side, she wouldn't be afraid even if she faced Qian Wuji directly.
Originally, both were members of the Jiuxing Sect, and their cultivation levels were at the peak of Da Cheng. The Wuliang Hall and the Jiubao Xian Palace also had comparable strength.
Now that the other party has suffered losses of four powerful cultivators at the Great Ascension stage, their strength is significantly inferior. The Nine Divine Palace undoubtedly holds the upper hand.
Ye Bufan pondered for a moment, then shook his head.
"No, I have more important things to do."
To him, the Kunlun Continent simply didn't belong to him.
To him, the most important thing was to find the five-colored stone and repair the passage, returning to Earth. What happened here didn't matter much to him.
Fa Xiang revealed a hint of surprise, unable to understand why Xi Men Jia Yin, as the head of the Nine Star Sect with a high status, would seek the opinion of a young person.
But he didn't speak, now that it had come to this, all he could do was follow their arrangements.
"Doctor Ye, I actually have a way that benefits everyone."
Ximen Jia Yin said, “I know you want to get the Five-Colored Mysterious Stone now, but waiting here passively probably won't yield any results.”
I have known Master Xuwu of Tianlong Temple for many years. Besides his cultivation at the peak of the Void Realm, he is also proficient in the art of divination.
This is just a secret technique, it backfires greatly. Usually he wouldn't calculate it for anyone.
If we help resolve the crisis at Shaolin Temple this time, Master Wuhua surely won't be stingy. Perhaps he could give you some clues about the location of the Five-Colored Stone
After she finished speaking, Ye Bufan's eyes lit up instantly.
If we could use divination to figure out where the Five-Colored Mystic Stones are, it would be much better than just waiting here aimlessly.
He had also thought before, using the Qimen Dunjia from ancient medicine to calculate, but unfortunately, once it was related to himself, he couldn't calculate anything at all.
Not only could he not calculate the location of the Five-Colored Stone, but he was also unaware of the whereabouts of people like Situ Dianmo. In this situation, having another person to help would be ideal.
"Alright, then I shall depart with the Sect Leader at once."
Seeing that Ye Bufan had agreed, Ximen Jiayin had no more hesitation.
Immediately notify Jiufan Xian Gong and, in the name of the sect leader, dispatch a summoning order to all major sects, requesting their aid for Tianlong Temple.
Ye Bufan didn't dawdle either. He hung a "Closed" sign at the entrance of Gu Yimen Clinic and then set off with everyone else.
He had no choice. He and Xi Mengyao were away, and he couldn't let Wuliang Dian capture Lu Xueman and the others to blackmail him.
Fully prepared, Ye Bufan directly sacrificed the Nine Heavens, taking everyone with him and rushing towards Tianlong Temple.
Although Tianlong Temple is only an eight-star sect, its foundation is extremely profound.
Just as the Fa Xiang says, it was the Jiuxing Sect of Tianqiong Prefecture a hundred years ago. However, its strength declined over time, leading to its current state.
Although nine days is a short amount of time, the Heavenly Star Empire's capital city is relatively far from Heaven Dragon Temple.
Thus, when Ye Bufan and his group arrived at the gate of Tianlong Temple, hundreds of people had already gathered there. They were disciples from other sects who had come to offer aid upon hearing the news.
At this moment, everyone looked up at the mountain together.
Originally, Tianlong Peak, where Tianlong Temple stood, was filled with abundant spiritual energy. But now, it is completely shrouded in dark magic.
From afar, only the Tianfo Pagoda atop the mountain remained, its golden Buddha's light fading ever so slightly.
As everyone knows, once the black demonic aura completely engulfs the Buddha's light, it will be the day Tianlong Temple is destroyed.
Seeing this scene, Ye Bufan secretly sighed in his heart. It was very similar to the legendary Water-Flooded Jinshan Temple.
It's just that the flood has been replaced by demonic energy, and Mount Jiuhua Temple has been replaced by Tianlong Temple.
Although many people have come now, there aren't many masters. Faced with the vast sea of demonic energy, they don't even have the courage to make a move.
Now that Xi Men Jia Yin arrived, everyone was instantly captivated and immediately gathered around.
After all, she was the head of the Nine Stars Sect. Her influence was immense, and her presence immediately calmed everyone's hearts.
And just then, several figures dashed over.
A tall middle-aged man, clad in a long robe, stood before them. His face was stern and his whole being radiated the aura of a powerful warrior.
It is another Nine Star Sect master - Qian Wuji, the master of Wuliang Hall.ately understood why these two would go to such lengths to defect. It must have something to do with him.These two old fellows ran away. Their impact on the sect might not be significant, but it's a b...
