No need to ask Qi Yue to know that it was the five vampire princes who helped Klinsmann. This guy named Klinsmann is really cunning, and it is definitely not easy to deal with him.
Klinsmann stood on the wall and glanced at Qi Yue fiercely, his eyes exuding a cold light, and his figure flashed, quietly disappearing in the darkness.
Qi Yue didn't chase him. It was a joke. He left the scope of Chongming Temple. Klinsmann had the ability to teleport instantly. Even if he chased him, he couldn't catch up. What's more, people from the Dark Council were probably ambushing outside the temple. Now there is no way. Chasing him is just asking for trouble.
Taking a few steps forward, Qi Yue came to the old monk and asked with concern: "Master, are you okay?"
The old monk shook his head and said: "It is indeed the breath from the west. No wonder you guys show up. Come on." As he said that, he led Qi Yue and the others into the Qianxun Tower.
What makes Qi Yue strange is that in this case, neither the Holy See nor the Greek Guardian appeared. Not to mention the Greek Guardian, his side and the Holy See currently have a cooperative relationship. Aren't they afraid that they will get the Holy Source first? ? Judging from the superficial cooperation, if he were a member of the Holy See, as soon as he discovered the situation in front of him, he would definitely ask to enter the Qianxun Tower together.
After thinking about it, the four of Qi and Yue followed the old monk into the Qianxun Tower. The first floor of Qianxun Tower is very open, but it is also very simple, and there is no clean and sacred atmosphere outside the tower. It even looked a little dilapidated. There is only a big bed, a wooden table, and a few chairs in the tower.
The old monk wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "You guys sit down."
Qi Yue's eyes swept around and then fell on the old monk again, "Master, have you always lived here? I asked before coming here that the Three Pagodas of Dali can be regarded as a tourist holy place. To practice in a place like this, Aren't you afraid of being disturbed?"
The old monk smiled calmly. He said: "Ordinary people are not allowed to enter Qianxun Pagoda casually. I have been here for many years. There is no place to practice Buddhism, so why should I leave?"
Qi Yue said: "How are your injuries? The one who attacked you just now was the vampire prince from the Western Dark Parliament. His ability is not weak."
The old monk shook his head. Said: "His breath has been completely plunged into darkness. Although he can use his energy breath to hurt me in a collision, his dark energy has no effect on me. Donor, don't worry. What's more, life is for me. Say it's optional."
Qi Yue said: "Has the master always been here guarding Chongming Temple?"
The old monk smiled calmly. Said: "I came here when I was twenty-two years old. It must have been more than a hundred years ago. As for the specific year, I can't remember clearly. Although there was no news here, I can still hear some stories about Yanhuang becoming stronger. The news. This makes me very happy. The country does not need us to do anything, and I can just stay here and guard this pure land."
Xu Dong said in surprise: "For more than a hundred years, isn't the master over a hundred years old?"
The old monk said: "I didn't expect that I would have to face a battle again after spending more than a hundred years in peace here. And Chongming Temple is the core of this battle. If possible, I hope all the donors can help me. Protect the pure land of Chongming Temple. Don’t let it be destroyed by those external evils."
"It is obligatory." Qi Yue said firmly. Although he was once a gangster and a ruffian. But the Yanhuang Republic is his motherland! If foreign enemies want to destroy everything in the motherland, how can he sit idly by? Although he knows that the purpose this time is more important than the Holy Source, when the old monk calmly made the request , he agreed without hesitation.
Ruyue, Mingming and Xu Dong all nodded. Their thoughts are the same as Qi Yue's. As the guardian of the East, if you can't even protect the Buddhist holy land of your own motherland. So, what kind of guardians are they
The old monk showed a rare smile, "If the previous generation of zodiac patron saints could be as powerful as you, perhaps our motherland would not have experienced so many hardships."
Thinking that the old monk was more than a hundred years old, Qi Yue's heart moved and he said: "Master, have you ever seen the zodiac guardian warriors of the previous generation?"
The old monk sighed, nodded slightly, and said: "That has been a long time ago. But I still can't forget everything at the beginning! Maybe you can't think of it, but I am the Tianyin of the previous generation of zodiac guardian warriors."
"Ah!" Four people exclaimed at the same time. They looked at each other with horror in their eyes.
The old monk smiled and said: "Is it strange? You don't need to think too much, I am not from Tibet. To be precise, the gods of the past generations have their own uncertainties, just like the zodiac guardian warriors. Back then, the previous generation After Qilin died in the hands of compatriots who were also descendants of Yan and Huang due to special circumstances, I knew that everything was irreversible. Disheartened, although I fought with all my strength, I did not achieve any results. In the end, all the zodiac guardian warriors finally died for He sacrificed his life for the country. It was only me. I was still very young at that time. After all my thoughts were lost, I returned to Chongming Temple and re-practiced Buddhism. With the blessing of the Buddha, perhaps the Buddha saw what the zodiac patron saint warriors had done, and our Yanhuang was reborn. Standing among the nations of the world and becoming strong again, I don’t know how happy I am to see all this. However, I understand that no matter how strong the country is, it still needs the protection of the Eastern Guardian in the dark. And I It was also deduced that in the near future, there will be a disaster, both in our country and in the whole world. In order not to repeat the same mistakes, I began a long search. Maybe you don’t know that all Tianyin generations were selected by the previous Tianyin generation. It’s determined.”
Qi Yue said in surprise: "Then do you know Master Zagru?"
The old monk smiled and shook his head, saying: "No, I don't know him. Back then, when he was born, I found his master. After many years of searching and exploration, I finally discovered that Tianyin is the guardian of the zodiac warrior. How important it is to talk about it. A powerful celestial guide plays a vital role in the zodiac guardian warrior’s awakening and subsequent cultivation. So, I taught this mission to his master. Both are Buddhists, and all Tibetans have There were eminent monks appearing. From the perspective of Buddhist background, they were the best choices for the next generation of Tianyin. Therefore, after I passed on my mission, I returned to Chongming Temple. Everything was exactly as I had predicted. A generation of zodiac guardian warriors has finally appeared again. I am very happy to see you all looking heroic. You have greater potential than the previous generation of zodiac guardian warriors."
Qi Yue said: "Then why did you let us go before? I think you should have discovered our identities when we first met. After all, you were once the Tianyin of the previous generation."
The old monk sighed and said: "I have felt everything you can feel. Dali is no longer peaceful, and I know why they came. The enemy is too powerful, so I don't want to implicate anyone. I think , now you zodiac guardian warriors are not completely gathered together. I don't want you to suffer any harm. Later, I discovered the breath of Mo Qilin and the powerful fluctuations of your abilities, and only then can I be sure that you have the strength to help me. If it weren’t for the pure land of Chongming Temple, I really don’t want you to participate in this recent event.”
Qi Yue frowned and said: "Master. We are the guardians of the East. It is our responsibility to protect the East. Why do you say that?"
The old monk's eyes revealed the sorrow of death, "Perhaps it's because the hurt he suffered back then was too deep. For a while, the zodiac guardian warriors are the most powerful existences only when they become truly powerful. However, until you have not truly grown up, At present, it is still relatively fragile. It is not that I will not let you protect the East, nor am I doubting your determination to protect the East. But I do not want you to make unnecessary sacrifices. When necessary, give up something and be patient, and when you are sure, It’s the best time to start fulfilling your mission again.”
Looking at the old monk in front of him, Qi Yue suddenly realized what Zagru said to him before. At the same time, he is now more and more interested in the strength that all the zodiac guardian warriors can show when they are gathered together. According to what the two generations of Tianyin said, once all the zodiac guardian warriors are gathered together, there seems to be a qualitative leap as a whole.
"I'm sorry, Master, I misunderstood you. Let's get to the point. Originally, we didn't know what those Westerners and people from the Kingdom of the Sun came to our Yanhuang for. After many inquiries, we got the news. It turned out that they were here for a man named Saint What exactly is the source, and is it really that useful to those Westerners?"
The old monk nodded and said: "Their judgment is correct. The holy source they mentioned is actually a living relic."
Qi Yue's whole body was shocked, "Living relics? But, as far as I know, living relics are not energy that can be attracted!"
This time it was the old monk's turn to be surprised, "Have you ever seen a living relic?"
Qi Yue nodded and said: "Master Zaglu himself has living relics. I have heard him tell me many times. It is a Buddhist treasure that requires ten generations of Buddhist power to cultivate. The Buddha's power is extremely huge."
The old monk's eyes showed a joy of death, "It seems that my choice was indeed right. I judged that the baby had great potential at the beginning. Sure enough, he finally gave birth to a living relic that truly belongs to our Buddhist sect."
Qi Yue was a little confused, "Master, can you explain it more clearly? Why can't I understand something?"
The old monk said: "This living relic in Chongming Temple is different from the living relics you have seen. From a Buddhist point of view, relics refer to the Buddhist treasures left behind by eminent monks after their death. Just like this string of relics in your hand Hand beads are Buddhist treasures left by ten generations of eminent monks in Tibet. However, with the development of Buddhism, the chances of relics appearing are gradually increasing, and the Buddhist power contained in them is also different. And living relics , is the highest existence among the relics. Not only does it require the power of ten generations of Buddha, but it also requires people who are born with Buddha roots to be able to integrate the power of Buddha in the previous ten generations through practice. However, this is not the only form of living relics. Opportunity. There is another situation where you can cultivate living relics."
"Another situation? What is that? According to you, the living relic in Chongming Temple seems to be very different from the one of Master Zagru."
The old monk nodded and said: "Yes, there is an essential difference. To be precise, the living relic in Chongming Temple does not actually belong to our Buddhism. You should have heard Zagru talk about ancient giant beasts It's a matter of time. At that time, the two factions that ruled our east were the ancient mythical beasts and the ancient vicious beasts. When some ten thousand year level mythical beasts or vicious beasts died, some of them would leave their inner alchemy. If they were strong If it is strong enough, the inner elixir may become solid, and its texture is just like our relics, which we call giant beast relics. And the possibility of such giant beast relics appearing is even lower than the relics of our eminent Buddhist monks. There are many. Because whether it is a ferocious beast or a mythical beast, if you want the relics of giant beasts to appear after death, you must have a very kind heart and accumulate thousands of good deeds before you can succeed. Those must also be found. Good deeds that come from within.”
Qi Yue said: "Then what is the use of this giant beast relic?"
The old monk said: "The giant beast relic is a collection of all the energy essence of the dead giant beast. Although the energy will undergo some qualitative changes after the giant beast relic is formed, even after the change, the energy contained in the giant beast relic is the same as the energy contained in the giant beast relic." Our Buddhist relics have similar effects, which is why we call them relics. Because the energy of these ancient giant beasts is much more powerful than that of us humans. Therefore, the energy contained in the giant beast relics is naturally greater than ours. Buddhist relics are larger. Among these giant beast relics, the most precious is the giant beast living relic. The giant beast living relic has only appeared twice in history, and those two times successively fulfilled two of your ancestors, Qilin. .The Qilin clan is also the only ancient giant beast that has achieved living relics."
"Ah! Does the living relic of the giant beast belong to our Qilin clan?" Qi Yue opened his mouth in surprise.
