"That's right, Master Xuyun has now reached the third level of the Nascent Soul, which is about the same level as mine. I'm actually not surprised by this, because Master Xuyun was the most talented person in the entire continent back then."
"The most talented person? How can this be said?"
Yang Kun did not expect that Monk Xuyun was actually a genius, and Yue Fengqing was not at all surprised at Monk Xuyun's ability to improve his cultivation, as if Monk Xuyun was supposed to be like this.
Yue Fengqing smiled and looked at Qi Delong beside him. Qi Delong also smiled and then explained the matter of Monk Xuyun to Yang Kun.
It turned out that Yue Fengqing and Qi Delong had known Monk Xuyun for a long time.
At that time, Monk Xuyun knew of Yue Fengqing's name not long after he and Qi Delong began practicing.
The news that a peerless genius emerged among the Buddhist disciples at that time spread throughout the continent. That genius was Monk Xuyun.
Monk Xuyun was still a young monk at that time, but after joining Buddhism, he showed his talent, so he was accepted as a disciple by the abbot of the Buddhism sect who was still there at that time.
Monk Xuyun did not disappoint the abbot's expectations. He once led Buddhist disciples and became famous. Later, after predicting a catastrophe a thousand years ago, he led the elders and disciples of various sects to survive the disaster on his own. It can be said that if Monk Xuyun had not foreseen the secrets in advance, there would have been countless casualties on the entire continent, and no sect would have survived.
It was precisely because of his belief in Master Xuyun that Yue Fengqing believed him without hesitation after Master Xuyun came and said that Western forces were invading, because the name Master Xuyun was no longer just a personal name, but represented hope.
"Then why is Monk Xuyun only at the tenth level of the Golden Core?"
Yang Kun asked this question.
Yue Fengqing and Qi Delong sighed, and then continued: "This matter is actually an opportunity for Monk Xuyun. Even though Monk Xuyun predicted the disaster in advance and led the various sects to survive, for Monk Xuyun, he predicted it in advance and made it public, which was like seeing through the secrets of heaven, so he suffered backlash. In addition, although he saved some people, most people were not saved. So when he gained a lot of merit, he also gained a lot of karma, which led to his cultivation level not rising. Later, because of the pursuit of other monsters and forces, he had to reshape his body, so his cultivation level was only at the tenth level of Jindan."
"Then why is he upgrading so quickly now?"
"I think he must have obtained a treasure from somewhere this time, so he was able to recover his cultivation speed. You know, Monk Xuyun has been unable to break through the Nascent Soul stage for hundreds of years, so it must be that he has accumulated a lot of experience and is able to upgrade so quickly."
I see.
Yang Kun always thought that an old monster like Monk Xuyun, whose age was unknown, should have more than that level of cultivation. Even if he was useless in cultivation, he could have reached the Nascent Soul stage slowly after so many years. But he did not expect that he actually had such a past. It seemed that he, who met his senior brother halfway, was indeed different from ordinary people.
Yang Kun thought of Master Xuyun's attitude towards him, and also thought of what Master Xuyun said to him when he went down the mountain before. He thought that Master Xuyun must have predicted this disaster, so he said those words to him earnestly, and also recognized him as a junior brother, and wanted him to take care of Buddhist disciples in the future. It turned out that he had predicted everything a long time ago. It was really magical.
