Chapter 377

Before long, the silence of the crowd was gradually broken.

"Thinking about it carefully, it is indeed as Senior Chen Ku said."

"I have traveled several times in the past, and each time I brushed past a life-and-death crisis."

"Hiss... not bad, not bad, several of my fellow daoists in the past also fell precisely because of this."

"Turning danger into safety and peacefully attaining the Dao is our most basic pursuit."

"What Teacher Chen Ku taught actually contained such deep meaning."

One living being after another spoke, either exclaiming or sighing.

Some had lingering fears, recalling the great crises they had experienced in the past.

Others associated it with themselves, thinking of the fall of other living beings, which was precisely because they had committed the various taboos Chen Ku spoke of.

Without a doubt, Chen Ku's lecture had already turned everyone from initial questioning to deep agreement, feeling it was very reasonable, and there was no longer any questioning voice.

For a long time, such discussion gradually subsided.

And just at this moment, Chen Ku asked another question suddenly.

"If you encounter a strange fellow daoist, you already know the dangers involved."

"However, what if a familiar fellow daoist invites you to explore an innate formation?!"

This question again attracted everyone's attention.

Almost as soon as the voice fell, Yaoshang spoke without thinking.

"Hehe, does this even need to be said?!"

"Since it is a familiar fellow daoist, naturally they can be trusted."

"Then let's go together and share the opportunity equally."

Yaoshang answered as a matter of course, with a look of "seeking praise."

He naturally thought that this time, Chen Ku's question couldn't possibly have any traps, right?!

If even familiar fellow daoists couldn't be trusted, then that would really be too "worrying about nothing."

And everyone's thoughts were exactly the same as Yaoshang's.

"Not bad, not bad, this time I also agree with what Senior Brother Yaoshang said!"

"Since it is a familiar person, then there is no need to be on guard against anything anymore."

"Hehe, Senior Chen Ku previously taught us to be on guard against others, and next, he must want to teach us to join hands with others and cooperate for a win-win situation."

Everyone smiled and nodded repeatedly, all agreeing with what Yaoshang said.

However, before their voices could fall.

Slap!

Only hearing another crisp sound.

Nothing else!

Another ruler fell, landing solidly on Yaoshang's hand.

Instantly, Yaoshang cried out in pain, and the field fell into a strange silence.

No way?!

Even this is hit?!

Could it be that Yaoshang's answer is also wrong?!

The crowd, who were originally full of agreement, immediately shrank their necks, not saying a word, looking at Chen Ku with full curiosity and confusion.

"Senior Brother Chen Ku clearly asked about a familiar fellow daoist."

"Since they are familiar, sharing the opportunity, what is wrong with that?!"

Yaoshang was full of grievance, arguing for himself like this.

And to this, Chen Ku had long expected it.

Little Chen Ku, although young in appearance, at this time had his eyebrows raised, and the pressure was full, soul-stirring.

"Hmph, you only heard me ask about a familiar fellow daoist."

"But you don't think that the previous two questions were secretly related."

"In the Primordial World, how could there be innate formations without owners appearing one after another?!"

"Furthermore, even if it is a familiar person, can you be sure that the other party's identity is real?!"

Chen Ku scolded one after another.

Everyone was dumbfounded!

Ah?!

Can it still be played like this?!

Senior Chen Ku's questions are truly full of traps everywhere.

However... is it necessary to be so cautious?!

Little did they know, what Chen Ku was thinking of at this time was Jie Du and the others from before.

Jie Du's hand of illusion could be called superb.

Just like him transforming into Zhunti's appearance, at first even Jieyin, Chen Ku, and the others were confused.

When he transformed into Changxi, he even deceived Xing Tian, Chi You, and even Zhu Rong and others.

If it weren't for Chen Ku's time law supernatural power, he really would have fallen into the trap.

It is conceivable that if it were Yaoshang and the others, they would have died without knowing how they died.

However, after the initial astonishment, everyone began to ponder Chen Ku's words.

That's right!

It was indeed their negligence earlier.

"Between heaven and earth, all things have causal connections, and one must not look at them in isolation."

"Think about the pros and cons before doing anything, and be vigilant against fraud."

Chen Ku instructed everyone again.

Hearing this, Yaoshang, who had just been punished, naturally didn't dare to say anything more, immediately nodding.

The rest of the crowd was also silent, speechless.

However, just when the atmosphere was somewhat oppressive.

Suddenly, Xuanjian, who had just apprenticed, spoke.

"Master, this disciple has a matter, I don't know if I can ask Master?!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked over.

Xuanjian speaks? That must have some high opinion.

After all, his spectacular scene of transforming into a human earlier was witnessed by countless living beings.

Everyone also wanted to know what kind of profound and mysterious question this guy could ask?!

Little Chen Ku nodded, signaling Xuanjian to speak.

Only hearing Xuanjian say:

"According to what Master said, we cannot compete for innate supreme treasures."

"Then... what about innate spiritual treasures?! Can we take action to compete?!"

Hearing his inquiry.

The crowd, who were waiting to hear some profound insights, suddenly had black lines on their foreheads, feeling deeply speechless.

No way?!

You just want to ask this?!

This guy's reflex arc is too long, right?!

Chen Ku had already finished lecturing on the attitude toward treasures.

Moreover, just how much does this guy want spiritual treasures?!

So, innate supreme treasures don't work, so you brat just took a step back and started considering innate spiritual treasures?!

Speechless!

Extremely speechless!

Everyone had strange expressions.

Originally thought that Chen Ku's newly recruited disciple was some stunningly talented person.

Now it seems, he is a freak.

Sure enough.

Hearing Xuanjian's words, Little Chen Ku also had a sunken expression, full of black lines.

He waved his hand, and the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler slapped Xuanjian on the forehead, causing the latter to gasp and cry out in pain.

"You already have three hundred sword pellets and the Ten Thousand Sword Map."

"Why do you need to compete?!"

Chen Ku scolded in a deep voice.

This disciple made him helpless too.

Chen Ku thought secretly, could it be because this guy was born from a spiritual treasure, hence he was even more covetous and eyeing other spiritual treasures?!

This... really is hard to change one's nature.

Looking at Xuanjian holding his forehead and crying out in pain, Chen Ku continued to explain:

"Moreover, our Buddhist Sect's Treasure-Dividing Rock is also full of spiritual treasures!"

"Seeking far and wide is also looking for trouble."

"Know that being greedy for more is useless; satisfying one's own needs is enough."

Following Chen Ku's words, everyone's eyes also turned to another direction involuntarily.

There, the Treasure-Dividing Rock that Chen Ku had harvested in the past had already soared in the wind, presenting a ten-thousand-zhang giant, standing firmly under Mount Sumeru.

And in the Treasure-Dividing Rock, streaks of brilliant light flickered, dazzling.

That scene was simply no different from when it was outside the Zixiao Palace.

That's right!

This Treasure-Dividing Rock had already been sacrificed by Chen Ku and became the "treasure vault" of the Western Buddhist Sect.

The many ordinary spiritual treasures Chen Ku harvested were of little use to him.

Plus, with the prosperity of the West, more spiritual treasures were nurtured and finally appeared.

Therefore, these spiritual treasures were all placed in the Treasure-Dividing Rock for the Buddhist Sect members to take.

For one, this action could benefit the Buddhist Sect members.

For another, the process of taking treasures was itself a test for everyone.

It could be called killing two birds with one stone.

Everyone had fanatical expressions, excited.

Regardless, Chen Ku's action was a great grace and merit for the Buddhist Sect members.

And Xuanjian, having received a ruler, felt dizzy, and seemed to realize how childish his question was.

He smiled sheepishly, sat down again, and didn't say anything more.

Immediately after, someone else asked.

"Senior Chen Ku said before, not to act blindly and impulsively, which can avoid the disaster of disparity in strength!"

"I don't know... how to interpret this?! What is acting blindly and impulsively?!"

Chen Ku looked over, only to see the speaker was Cihang Daoren, whom he had intercepted from the Chan Sect and brought back.

And now, he was also Guanyin in the Buddhist Sect, having attained the Bodhisattva fruit status.

But in front of Chen Ku, he still appeared ignorant, asking sincerely.

Chen Ku smiled faintly, but did not answer this question directly.

Instead, he opened his mouth and continued to assume:

"Then I will ask you!"

"If you are traveling and encounter a Xuanxian blocking the road, wanting to plunder your opportunity."

"In this situation, what should be done?!"

Hearing Chen Ku's assumption again, Guanyin was slightly stunned.

Afterwards, his face was kind, and he responded calmly:

"If so, then just reason with them and persuade the other party, that's all."

"If the other party insists on acting recklessly, then one can also use immortal power to force them back."

Guanyin had faint Buddhist light permeating out as he spoke.

Hearing this, before Chen Ku could respond.

The crowd around was already in an uproar.

"Senior Brother Cihang is still too kind."

"A mere Xuanxian, why reason with them?"

"Exactly, exactly, Senior Brother Cihang is now at the Taiyi Golden Immortal cultivation level, isn't it just one palm to exterminate a Xuanxian?!"

"Shh.... isn't it that Senior Brother Cihang now has the Bodhisattva fruit status, so he should naturally be compassionate."

That's right!

Everyone was very surprised.

Just as they said, the current Guanyin was at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal cultivation level.

Facing a Xuanxian, it could be said to be an unquestionable dimensionality reduction strike.

One finger could crush the other party to death; words like reasoning were unnecessary in everyone's eyes.

From this, it can also be seen that Cihang had been thoroughly influenced by the Buddhist Sect and was worthy of the position of Guanyin Bodhisattva.

However, Chen Ku's words were destined to shock everyone again.

"Reasoning?"

"Since the other party has already appeared, how could they listen to any great principles from you?!"

"As for forcing the other party back? That is even more unwise."

"If you encounter such a situation, your first reaction should be to flee directly."

Silence!

Chen Ku's words rang out faintly.

But the field suddenly fell into a deathly silence!

Everyone was dumbfounded, with expressions of disbelief, looking at Chen Ku.

What?!

Did I hear wrong?!

A Taiyi Golden Immortal blocked by a Xuanxian, the first reaction should be to flee directly?!

This...

If one really did that, wouldn't they be laughed to death by all living beings?!

Heaven-defying!

Too heaven-defying!

Although everyone had accepted what Chen Ku said earlier.

But this time, everyone just felt that Chen Ku was probably talking nonsense?!

Seeming to see what everyone was thinking, Chen Ku smiled indifferently and continued:

"In your opinion, since you have the advantage in strength, you should clash head-on, is that so?!"

Everyone nodded, indicating that what Chen Ku said was indeed what they were thinking.

Xuanjian, whose forehead no longer hurt, was even more outspoken again.

"Exactly so!"

"A Taiyi Golden Immortal crushing a Xuanxian is easy as pie."

"Therefore, why run?!"

Only, as soon as his words came out, Chen Ku cast a glance, making Xuanjian shrink his neck and hurriedly sit down.

Of course, Chen Ku was not angry at Xuanjian.

It was reasonable for everyone to have this question.

And this was precisely the principle Chen Ku wanted to tell everyone.

"You all are attached again!"

"Why don't you think, why does a Xuanxian dare to block a Taiyi Golden Immortal?!"

This sentence of Chen Ku made everyone confused again.

Why does a Xuanxian dare to block a Taiyi Golden Immortal?!

Is this the core of the problem?!

That's right!

Why?!

Everyone's brains were almost completely crashed, just looking at Chen Ku with half-understanding.

The latter explained again.

"There must be a demon when things are abnormal!"

"A Xuanxian daring to block a Taiyi Golden Immortal must have a conspiracy."

"Such as playing the pig to eat the tiger, hiding helpers, or even secretly setting up a killing trap, etc......"

What Chen Ku said made everyone gradually feel a sense of terror.

The water of the Primordial World is actually so deep?!

Originally in everyone's eyes, it was a completely winning game.

But in Chen Ku's words, it actually hid so many crises.

Numb!

Completely numb!

But Chen Ku's words made everyone unable to refute.

After all, just as he said, a mere Xuanxian, if they dared to block a Taiyi Golden Immortal, then even the stupidest person would realize there was something strange.

It's just that they didn't realize Chen Ku's deep meaning earlier.

"Sigh... bitter, so bitter......"

Suddenly, a sound of bitter complaining came from the field.

However, these words did not come from Chen Ku's mouth.

On the contrary, it was Xuanjian shaking his head and saying so.

He had followed Chen Ku for tens of thousands of years and now apprenticed to the latter.

Therefore, he hadn't learned much skill, but he imitated Chen Ku's catchphrase vividly.

Looking at his serious appearance, everyone couldn't help but laugh.

This guy is too much!

Only hearing Xuanjian continue:

"According to what Master said, then in the future when we travel between heaven and earth."

"As long as we encounter any wind or grass, we should flee immediately, that's all."

Hearing this, the crowd who were watching the fun were slightly stunned again.

This... can be said to be rough words but not rough principles.

Thinking about it carefully, this "preaching," Chen Ku seemed to be teaching them the way of saving their lives.

Or to put it more bluntly, it's just that when the situation is not right, run away immediately.

As soon as the voice fell, only seeing the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler fly over from the air, it was another "slap" on Xuanjian's forehead.

His figure, which had just stabilized, couldn't help but stagger again.

"This is wrong!"

"Why wait until you notice something abnormal to know the principle of fleeing?!"

"Or rather, if there is nothing wrong, why wander around in the Primordial World?!"

"Cultivating in seclusion is the right way......"
