Reincarnated into a great tree, I will create an immortal kingdom of God

Chapter 340 The Old Monk Meets the Buddha

The position of temple priest has been determined.

It was no use for Wu Qingming to regret it.

He could only look at Zuo Jurong with red eyes and jealousy.

"Brother, did you predict this matter before you came here?"

Wu Qingming said.

Zuo Jurong smiled but said nothing.

He really had never predicted this matter.

He once divined something related to the foggy restricted area, but suffered backlash.

Therefore, he didn't dare to divine anything related to the Fog Forbidden Zone.

It was a pleasant surprise for him to have such a good thing.

But there is no need to tell Wu Qingming.

really.

When Wu Qingming saw his smile, he mistakenly thought that Zuo Jurong had told him the future.

This made him feel a lot better.

After all, this shows that Zuo Jurong won this opportunity through his own ability, not luck.

"I was wondering why you were so positive."

Wu Qingming tasted it.

Zuo Jurong no longer had time to pay attention to him, and looked at Li Xuan eagerly: "Daoyou, how should I accept the imperial decree?"

"You must hold the welcoming ceremony seriously and let the Lord of the Divine Tree recognize you as a temple priest, then you will naturally be granted the title."

Li Xuan said.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

these three days.

Zuo Jurong did his best and made the best preparations.

All kinds of offerings and personnel for welcoming the gods have been arranged.

Tens of thousands of people gathered outside the temple to watch.

Many people recognized Zuo Jurong and knew that he was the former Heavenly Master and current Grand Elder of Luofu Mountain.

Such a big shot actually gave up his position as the Great Elder of Luofu Mountain and ran to Nanling City to be a temple priest.

This is undoubtedly rare.

"Welcome the gods."

Zuo Jurong shouted.

Various spiritual fruits and objects were placed on the altar.

Some of his disciples also performed dances and prayers according to the proper procedures.

Zuo Jurong knelt under the divine painting of the giant ginkgo tree.

hum!

Finally, when this lively atmosphere reached its peak, an invisible and majestic force descended from nowhere.

Then, a majestic voice sounded: "Zuo Jurong, you are 107 years old, and you have reached the early stage of Mahayana cultivation. I hereby appoint you as the temple priest of Nanling City Temple."

As the voice fell, a black light invisible to the naked eye suddenly shot towards Zuo Jurong.

From this black light, Zuo Jurong felt an indescribable sacred power.

He was extremely excited.

After a moment, the black light sank into Zuo Jurong's eyebrows and also merged into Zuo Jurong's body and soul.

Boom!

Zuo Jurong felt his mind explode.

The next moment his consciousness appeared in an endless void.

In this void, there is a picture floating.

It was a Tai Chi diagram in black and white.

The black face is like endless darkness, symbolizing the netherworld.

White flour is as if supremely sacred, symbolizing the highest heaven.

If you look more closely, you will find that the outlines of mountains and rivers are faintly visible on the scroll.

The folds of mountains, the meandering of rivers, the lingering clouds and mist...

It makes people feel the endless laws and mysteries between heaven and earth.

Immediately afterwards, Zuo Jurong felt that his consciousness was involuntarily flying towards the Tai Chi diagram.

After counting the breaths.

hum!

Zuo Jurong’s consciousness was immersed in the Tai Chi diagram.

He clearly saw that on the Tai Chi diagram, which was originally empty, there appeared a name, "Zuo Jurong".

Then Zuo Jurong's mind shook violently again, and he felt as if the world was spinning.

When he came to his senses, he found that his consciousness had returned to his body.

But Zuo Jurong knew that he was different.

His mind moved, and everything within a radius of 800 miles, with the Nanling City Temple as the center, came into his mind.

At this moment, he had a strong feeling that he was the master of this earth.

Then he couldn't help but stretch out his hand and draw a line in the air.

As a result, the void was like tofu, and he easily cut a crack in it.

Wu Qingming, who was standing next to him, was stunned by this scene. The regret that had finally subsided surged up again.

Not only that.

When Zuo Jurong turned his head and looked at him, he felt a terrifying pressure.

For a moment, Wu Qingming actually felt like kneeling down to Zuo Jurong.

"you you……"

Wu Qingming stuttered.

You know, although Zuo Jurong has a strong talent for divination, his talent for cultivation is indeed not that outstanding.

Zuo Jurong was an early Mahayana cultivator, but Wu Qingming was at the peak of the Mahayana stage.

In terms of cultivation, he is far superior to Zuo Jurong.

But now, he felt that as long as Zuo Jurong wanted to, he could crush him with just one finger.

Zuo Jurong smiled slightly, retracted his pressure, and then looked at the people of Nanling City outside and said: "From now on, I will be the temple priest of Nanling City Temple."

after one day.

Wu Qingming returned to Luofu Mountain in a daze.

The three ancestors looked at him in surprise.

"According to Zuo Jurong's message, he has successfully become the temple priest of Nanling City."

Zheng Yin asked curiously, "This should be a good thing. Why do you look so listless?"

Wu Qingming, with a sad face, told the three ancestors what he had seen and heard in Nanling City.

After hearing this, the three ancestors' eyes turned red and they felt like beating their chests and stamping their feet.

"There is actually such an opportunity."

"If I had known this, I should have been the temple keeper."

The three ancestors completely understood Wu Qingming's feelings.

Seeing the three ancestors like this, Wu Qingming couldn't help but feel much better.

"There's no need for us to regret this."

Dazu suddenly said: "Or rather, instead of regretting here, it is better to focus on the future."

“Focus on the future?”

Everyone else looked at him.

"In this world, once something happens, it will always happen again. Once something begins, it will always happen again."

The Great Ancestor said.

The eyes of others gradually brightened.

"Great Ancestor, do you mean that there will be other temples in the Misty Forbidden Zone?"

Wu Qingming couldn't wait to say.

"Most likely so."

The Great Ancestor said: "The move by the Misty Forbidden Zone is obviously to begin to extend its influence outward, so just one temple is definitely not enough.

We must pay close attention to this matter and make full preparations from now on. If there is a temple in the future, we will grab the position of temple keeper as soon as possible."

Nanling City.

Shangguan Zhao set out from the city and returned to Jiangzhou the next day.

Jiangzhou, Xijiang City.

This is where the Shangguan clan is located.

When Shangguan Zhao came back, the senior members of the Shangguan family were already waiting for her in the lobby.

Because before she came back, she had already passed on the affairs of Nanling City to the Shangguan family using talismans.

"Zhao'er, tell us again what happened in Nanling City in person."

The current patriarch of the Shangguan family is Shangguan Bodao.

"Yes, Grandpa."

Shangguan Zhao immediately told him everything he had seen and heard, no matter how big or small.

After hearing this, the hall fell into a long silence.

"What do you think?"

In the end, it was Shangguan Bo who broke the silence.

"There are only two choices before us."

Shangguan Zhao's uncle Shangguan Yu said: "You can either join the old monster of Yuhua Immortal Dynasty or join the Misty Forbidden Zone.

In the past, we chose the former, but now we have an additional option.”

"This choice is very important. It not only affects the future of my Shangguan family, but also the future survival of the Shangguan family."

"I think it's better to join the old monsters of Yuhua Immortal Dynasty. After all, they were the rulers of the last era."

"Every era has its own overlord. It is very rare for a dynasty to be able to be restored since ancient times."

"Although the old monsters of Yuhua Immortal Dynasty are strong, how can they compare with the Misty Forbidden Zone that controls life and death."

The senior members of the Shangguan family said one after another.

Not long ago, they were determined to join the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty.

Nowadays, most people tend to prefer the foggy restricted area.

It is really that the impact of life and death on them is too great.

This is a power that only true gods possess.

Even during the heyday of the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty, there were only a handful of people who could achieve immortality.

There is even less now.

Can the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty, which has no immortals, still fight against the Misty Forbidden Zone that has gods?

Therefore, this decision was actually not that difficult to make for the top leaders of the Shangguan family.

In the end, the Shangguan family held a vote, and 70% of the senior executives supported moving to the Misty Forbidden Zone.

In fact.

If the one fighting for the world is the Misty Forbidden Zone, all the top leaders will definitely support it.

It’s just that the one fighting for the world is Li Qianjue, and there is a layer of separation between him and the foggy restricted area, so 30% of people disagree.

"Very good, now that we have made the decision, the next step is to find a way to support Li Qianjue."

Shangguan Bodao.

"We shouldn't make too much noise, otherwise we will be easily discovered by the court."

"That's right. Li Qianjue is still in the stage of gathering strength. It's best not to let the court find out."

Many senior executives said.

"Then we will secretly transfer our forces and gradually move all personnel and resources to Qingzhou."

Shangguan Bodao.

"Actually, now that I think about it, Qingzhou is still a very good place."

"Hahaha, it seems to be true. Because of the Misty Forbidden Zone, Qingzhou doesn't have many big families or sects, so it's very suitable for the development of my Shangguan family."

"If Li Qianjue can really conquer the world in the future, then my Shangguan family will be an in-law, and our family will definitely be able to surpass its previous limits."

Everyone in the Shangguan family was looking forward to it.

And in Jiangzhou, there is another giant force.

That is the Vajra Temple.

The Shangguan family's actions were able to be concealed even from the imperial court, but not from the Vajra Temple.

Vajra Temple.

An old monk sat cross-legged on a cushion.

Opposite him, a group of monks from Vajra Temple were all very respectful.

This old monk was none other than the second patriarch of Vajra Temple, Master Xuji, who had recently dealt with the great demon Huang Qiushi.

"What's going on with the Shangguan family?"

Zen Master Xu Ji asked.

"We don't know the details, we only know that for some reason, the Shangguan family is secretly transferring personnel and resources to Qingzhou."

There is a monk below.

Zen Master Xu Ji was thoughtful: "This matter cannot be taken lightly. Send someone to Qingzhou to investigate it carefully."

"Yes."

On that day, disciples from Vajra Temple went to Qingzhou.

The next day, several disciples returned to the Vajra Temple with shocked looks on their faces.

"Master, there are rumors in Qingzhou that the Ghost Gate was opened during the Misty Forbidden Zone and the Community Day Festival."

"Many people also said they saw the gates of hell and the netherworld with their own eyes."

"It is said that Shangguan Zhao, the daughter of the Shangguan family, followed Su Yan, the head of the Su family, and boarded the ferry. After that, the Shangguan family took a series of actions."

Several disciples said.

Zen Master Xuji's expression gradually became solemn.

At this moment he realized that this matter might not be something his disciples could handle.

"I will go to Qingzhou myself."

Zen Master Xuji set off immediately.

He first secretly observed the actions of the Shangguan family and found that the personnel and resources transferred by the Shangguan family were mainly concentrated in Nanling City.

Then, Zen Master Xu Ji flew towards the foggy restricted area.

A quarter of an hour later, he stopped outside the foggy restricted area.

Looking at the foggy restricted area ahead, Zen Master Xu Ji was suddenly stunned.

In the center of the vast fog, he actually "saw" a Buddha light as big as the sun.

In this world, there are immortals and gods, and in Buddhism, there is Buddha.

Even he couldn't release this Buddha's light that was as bright as the sun.

Only Buddha can do this.

There is actually a Buddha in the center of the foggy restricted area?

same moment.

Su Mu also sensed the presence of Zen Master Xu Ji.

After all, Zen Master Xu Ji is a great master who has lived through five kalpas.

Through his thoughts, Su Mu observed the expression of Zen Master Xu Ji.

Zen Master Xu Ji looked towards the center of the foggy restricted area, and was shocked at first, then he showed a look of piety.

Pious?

A monk will only be pious when he sees the Buddha.

What's the matter with this Zen Master Xuji?

Suddenly, Su Mu had a flash of inspiration in his mind and he immediately understood.

Before this, he had obtained a relic from Zen Master Huizhen, and through this relic, he descended to a relic pagoda in Tianyuan.

Being able to leave behind relics also allowed Su Mu to travel through the world through the connection between the relics.

The monk who left this relic must be of the same level as the Buddha.

Su Mu used the Tianlian method to refine this relic, and naturally the Buddha's light of the relic was on his body.

Other living beings cannot see this Buddha light, but the old monk Xu Ji, who has practiced for five kalpas, can see it.
