Chapter 69

"Now, Northern Northern Shaolin will become the head of the four sacred grounds of Buddhism!"

"If I have the chance, I must go to Northern Northern Shaolin to pay my respects!"

"If I could personally ask this Sweeping Monk for teachings on the Dharma, that would be even better!"

Lian Lian Chengbi, standing to the side, said: "While Buddhist methods have their merits, in my view, they are nothing more than tricks to deceive the ignorant people of the world."

"Young Master Duan, I advise you to study less Buddhism!"

Hearing this, Duan Yu was not annoyed, but only smiled: "There is Zen in everything in the world!"

"In the past, the Great Buddhist Vajra, Monk Master Wuxin, saw through the Zen of the world."

"He used his own flesh to break the false words of the world!"

"He never once deceived the masses!"

"When the Dharma reaches the level of Monk Master Wuxin, that is the true Dharma!"

Li Zhangsheng listened to Duan Yu and Lian Lian Chengbi discussing Monk Master Wuxin.

A strange look flashed in his eyes.

Among all his past identities, the Buddhist prodigy, the living Buddha of the present age, the invincible Great Vajra Monk Master Wuxin, was perhaps one of the most brilliant among his many identities.

So much so that even today, there are still so many Buddhists who cherish his name.

Whenever he looks back at these past lives, he always has a feeling of forgetting both himself and the world.

This feeling is very strange.

It is as if he is watching someone else's life.

Although short, it was extremely brilliant.

Some say that immortality is the greatest curse!

But in reality, those are just the empty words of people who do not understand the path of immortality!

A true immortal, like him, lives one life after another!

Experiencing the myriad states of the world through various identities.

0 ... 0

Of course, if you ask which one is the real him.

Li Zhangsheng can answer accurately.

Every single one of them is him!

In the Nangong Chunshui Immortal-Asking Pavilion, the noise continued.

Guo Xiang held the puppy and teased it, and it seemed that all her unhappy emotions were swept away.

Li Zhangsheng looked down at the long street that had gradually regained its human bustle.

His thoughts had already flown to the Azure Cloud Ranking.

The Azure Cloud Ranking certainly cannot contain all the powerhouses in the world!

Those who can make the list can be considered lucky ones!

So, can he, Li Zhangsheng, make the list?

Li Zhangsheng actually doesn't really hope to make the list.

Because, if he makes the list.

It is very likely that all his past identities will be exposed one by one.

This does not align with Li Zhangsheng's wishes.

However, Li Zhangsheng also understands that many things in this world do not change according to human will.

Even someone as strong as Li Zhangsheng has things in this world he cannot handle and old friends he cannot find.

At this moment.

Guo Xiang was heard beside Li Zhangsheng, pointing at the vest worn on the puppy's back, and asked Li Zhangsheng with some curiosity: "Big Brother Nangong!"

"What are the words written on this puppy's vest!"

"They look so strange!"

Hearing this, Li Zhangsheng smiled faintly and said: "That is his name."

Guo Xiang was even more curious upon hearing this and said: "Oh?"

"The little guy has a name?"

"What is it called?"

Li Zhangsheng said faintly: "Qiongqi!"

The puppy barked twice upon hearing the two words "Qiongqi."

Guo Xiang muttered to herself.

"Qiongqi?"

"What a strange name!"

"Big Brother, is this the name you gave the puppy?"

Li Zhangsheng smiled and said: "No, he already had this name!"

Guo Xiang nodded as if she understood, saying: "Oh, so that's how it is!"

At this moment.

Suddenly, golden light erupted in the firmament.

A strange phenomenon suddenly appeared on the Azure Cloud Ranking!

In an instant, it shocked all living beings in the world!

……

In the Nangong Chunshui Immortal-Asking Pavilion.

A crowd of onlookers.

Looked at the Azure Cloud Ranking in the firmament.

At this moment, the Azure Cloud Ranking was shining with golden light!

Unlike the previous times when someone made the list.

The brilliance of this golden light was simply outrageous!

Not long after.

The golden light on the Azure Cloud Ranking dissipated.

The list expanded by an unknown number of times in an instant.

The purple energy of the entire firmament had even disappeared!

Only the Azure Cloud Ranking remained in the sky!

At this moment.

A line of large characters finally appeared on the Azure Cloud Ranking!

【Third place on the Nine Provinces Azure Cloud Ranking—Xiaoyaozi!】

Whoosh!

With the appearance of this line of characters.

On the Azure Cloud Ranking, a scene appeared, as if it were a reflection in a mirror or the moon in the water!

In the scene.

It was still extremely hazy.

The specific situation could not be seen clearly.

However, what could be seen was that beneath the hazy scene was a magnificent imperial palace!

The haziness was gradually dissipating!

This scene.

Not only shocked the crowd of onlookers in the Nangong Chunshui Immortal-Asking Pavilion!

Everyone in the world who saw this "030" scene was shocked and amazed!

"What on earth is going on?"

"The Azure Cloud Ranking has actually changed again?"

"Yes!"

"Previously, the Azure Cloud Ranking only had text introductions!"

"Now, it seems like a scene has appeared!"

"Yes!"

"The Heavenly Dao is truly miraculous!"

"The top three on the Azure Cloud Ranking must be invincible!"

"Otherwise, why would the Azure Cloud Ranking change like this, using scenes to trace the past of these three people!"

"Yes!"

"I wonder who this Xiaoyaozi is!"

"It's truly curiosity-inducing!"

"I can't wait to see his life story immediately!"

"To be ranked third on the Azure Cloud Ranking!"

"He must be an extremely remarkable person!"

In an instant.

The Nangong Chunshui Immortal-Asking Pavilion was already in an uproar!

Everyone was craning their necks in anticipation.

Lian Lian Chengbi and Duan Yu were also completely stunned.

Li Zhangsheng looked at the Azure Cloud Ranking in the firmament that had produced the strange phenomenon.

A look of surprise also flashed in his eyes.

The changes of the Heavenly Dao are truly mysterious!

The previous twenty-five people on the list were all introduced through text!

Now, the last three people on the list are actually using scenes to trace their past!

This situation happened so suddenly that a bad feeling suddenly rose in Li Zhangsheng's heart.

If he really entered the top three of this Azure Cloud Ranking!

Wouldn't all his secrets be laid bare by this Azure Cloud Ranking?

However, Li Zhangsheng is, after all, a person who has seen great storms and waves.

Since he cannot change it, he will let nature take its course.

Everything has two sides.

Sometimes, what seems like a bad thing might also be a good thing.

At this moment.

Another line of large characters appeared on the Azure Cloud Ranking in the firmament.

【Identity: Xiaoyaozi, originally the last ruler of Southern Tang, Li Yu, known as the Hermit of Zhongshan.】

【At twenty-two, he entered the Eastern Palace and became the Crown Prince of Southern Tang.】

【At twenty-four, he ascended the throne and made Lady Zhou his Empress.】

【The world was in turmoil, the mountains and rivers were hard to secure; the naturally sentimental Li Yu became the Emperor of Southern Tang, destined to be a tragedy.】

【Thirteen years of imperial life left a heavy and colorful mark on his life.】

At this time, the scene on the Azure Cloud Ranking finally became clear.

In the scene.

In a magnificent imperial palace.

A handsome man in imperial robes was playing music and composing poetry with his beloved.

The couple were in perfect harmony, a talented man and a beautiful woman, the envy of others.

This scene.

Fell into the eyes of the crowd of onlookers in the Nangong Chunshui Immortal-Asking Pavilion.

Sounds of amazement.

Appeared one after another.

"My God!"

"This Xiaoyaozi is actually the last ruler of Southern Tang, Li Yu!"

"Then isn't he the father of that Sweeping Monk!"

"But wasn't that Li Yu already poisoned to death by the Emperor Song Taizong of Song?"

"Can dead people still make the list?"

"How is this possible!"

"It must be that Li Yu is still alive!!!"

"Otherwise, how could he make the list!"

"My God, my God!"

"What secrets are hidden in here!"

"It's truly curiosity-inducing!"

"Yes, it turns out that these top three people are the main event!"

"It's truly something to look forward to!"

"Is that the young Xiaoyaozi?"

"He is indeed a man of talent, and his Empress is so beautiful!"

At this time.

The Nangong Chunshui Immortal-Asking Pavilion was already in an uproar.

The appearance of Xiaoyaozi, once his identity was revealed.

It had already caused a thousand waves!

And Li Zhangsheng frowned.

……

At this time.

In Northern Northern Shaolin.

A group of Northern Northern Shaolin monks, led by Abbot Abbot Xuanci, were speaking respectfully to the Sweeping Monk.

Abbot Xuanci said: "Master, please forgive our ignorance for not knowing that you had been sweeping the floor in the Scripture Library for decades."

"In the future, if there is anything, please feel free to command us!"

"Everyone in Northern Shaolin will not dare to disobey!"

The Sweeping Monk said very calmly: "Things were as they were before, and they shall remain the same now!"

"The Abbot need not feel burdened because of my presence."

Abbot Xuanci said: "Please rest assured, Master, I certainly will not!"

The Sweeping Monk nodded slightly.

At this moment.

The firmament was changing in myriad ways.

The Sweeping Monk looked up.

When he saw the name Xiaoyaozi appear on the Azure Cloud Ranking in the firmament, and his identity was revealed.

The Sweeping Monk was instantly stunned.

The words "Last Emperor of Southern Tang, Li Yu" pierced his heart like needles!

The scene that followed.

That familiar Southern Tang Imperial Palace.

That familiar father, mother.

All the people from the past.

Those familiar faces suddenly stirred up memories in his mind that had been sealed for a long time.

The Sweeping Monk had been contemplating Buddhism and Zen for fifty years.

He had long since let go of many things.

Otherwise, he would not have achieved the Vajra realm... 0

However.
