Chapter 428: If the Heart Has Buddha

If it weren't for Wei Yuan's furnace of pills, Xu Henshui's original teaching effect could be called perfect.

However, afterwards, Wei Yuan gave Xu Henshui a recorded image, in which the last part was cut off, ending at the moment Xu Henshui held up the golden-patterned spiritual pill to show people.

Seeing this image, the circles around Xu Henshui's eyes almost turned red.

That night, the girl Su Ruyu waited all night but didn't wait for Xu Henshui. It was said that the lamp in Xu Henshui's room was bright all night, and the genius alchemist of a generation giggled at a stone for the whole night.

The rumor naturally didn't come from the Creation Sect disciples guarding the gate; they couldn't see the situation inside the room at all. The true source of the rumor was Master Chuhe, and the old master heard it from a sable.

Wei Yuan's alchemy had achieved small success, so he quietly left Azure Void and headed to the Zhenshan boundary to find Li Zhi.

The Zhenshan boundary was already of considerable scale, with forty thousand elites and sixty thousand civilian braves hoarded within. A city had already begun to be built in the center of the boundary, and Wei Yuan met Li Zhi in the temporary Wei Wei Jiezhu's Mansion.

"... The process of the matter is like this. Now the one-year deadline is almost here, and I really can't think of any way to persuade the Bao family. So I came to find you, to see if you can help me plan one or two." Wei Yuan had a worried look.

After listening, Li Zhi also became very serious and asked: "When you were conquering the Shaman Domain in the west, did Senior Bao Manshan say he was very satisfied before leaving? Did he say anything else?"

Wei Yuan shook his head: "No."

Li Zhi's face was solemn, and he said: "In that case, your worry is correct. Senior Bao Manshan should have set another test to see if you are sharp enough; this is the key to dealing with the internal struggles of the noble families in the future.

The Bao family has twelve Great Elders; when making decisions, the Great Elder counts as two, and the other elders count as one. If I'm not mistaken, his sentence meant he would stand on your side, at most that his lineage would stand on your side. But this is clearly not enough."

"Then what should be done?"

Li Zhi pondered for a moment and said: "Don't be anxious, let's first see what trump cards we have in our hands. Hmm, you first talk about what you are best at and where your strongest ability lies."

Wei Yuan thought for a while and said: "I am good at opening up territory, fighting on the battlefield, governing the boundary and pacifying the people, changing dynasties... uh!"

Wei Yuan was quick-tongued, but fortunately reacted in time, taking back what shouldn't have been said, and then continued:

"Just now those were general abilities. If we only talk about actual achievements, it can be said like this: I have never lost a battle, and I have never lost a fight. When fighting, if I encounter someone of the same rank, the number can be ignored; winning by fighting across one rank is my duty, and across two ranks is what I should do. If it's a life-and-death struggle, with all means used, then I probably won't lose across three ranks.

That's roughly it; I really don't have any other advantages." Wei Yuan said with a worried face.

Li Zhi really wanted to slash over with a sword to see if he could cut through that fellow's face. At this moment, he deeply doubted his own judgment of people; how did he become friends with this guy?

Wei Yuan was also worried; his skills didn't seem suitable for display at the Bao family, and the alchemy he had just learned was even less presentable.

Azure Void was too far from the Bao family, completely at the two poles of the human domain. Wei Yuan couldn't bring a large army to the Bao family to prove his ability to fight. Besides, fighting seemed quite easy and there was nothing to brag about; it was nothing more than leading a team to charge over and charge back, and after a few times, he would win.

As for being invincible in the Dharma Form, ever since meeting Shangguan Qianmo, Wei Yuan had known the power of this sentence, so he naturally wouldn't say this to the Bao family. Moreover, when sparring with the high-level Dharma Form cultivators of the Bao family, he couldn't use the girl Su Ruyu, nor could he send out the Dragon Eagle; Wei Yuan felt he might not necessarily win.

Moreover, this trip was to persuade the Great Elders, not to compete for strength. Slapping the Bao family's face would only make things worse.

This time, Li Zhi pondered for a long time before saying: "How about this, I will run to the Bao family for you first, to see if I can increase some bargaining chips for you, or at least probe the elders' tone. However, I must return to my sect first to invite a respected teacher; then return to Southern Qi to find an elder to come forward. Although it will take some time, with two elders going together, the weight of the words will be enough."

Wei Yuan was taken aback, not expecting Li Zhi to make such a big fuss.

Li Zhi said sternly: "Brother, this is absolutely not a small matter! If I had the opportunity to cultivate the Floating World Dragon Map, let alone picking five first, even if only three were given to Southern Qi, the King of Qi wouldn't even need to think, he would definitely send me directly. I can only rely on the relationships of my sect and family to see if I can win over one or two elders for you."

Wei Yuan really didn't expect this matter to be so troublesome, and for a moment didn't know what to say.

Li Zhi laughed: "I will act as your envoy this time. During this period, you help me guard Zhenshan, don't let the mountain people steal my old nest."

"No problem." Wei Yuan agreed immediately. He was good at this, and during the last fight, Wei Yuan felt the mountain people were easy to deal with and didn't need to use his brain at all.

"Hmm, in a moment I will share a part of the Wei Wei Jiezhu's authority with you; there is no time to lose, I will set off tonight."

After explaining some precautions, Li Zhi added: "Also, just my Li family's weight is definitely not enough. It's best if Xiaoyu can invite the elders of the Xiao family to come forward; then Cui Yu... forget it, his status in the clan is limited, I'm afraid he can't invite clan elders of sufficient weight." "Can't the elders of the Grand Tai Tai Chu Gong do it?" Wei Yuan felt that if others didn't mention it, his own Patriarch Xuanyue could definitely come forward.

Li Zhi shook his head: "Sister Bao is originally a disciple of the Grand Tai Tai Chu Gong, so the elders of the Grand Tai Tai Chu Gong are useless. You need to prove how many connections and resources you have outside the Grand Tai Tai Chu Gong."

Wei Yuan felt a headache, not expecting it to be so troublesome.

At this moment, a soft and pleasant voice suddenly sounded: "What is difficult about this matter? As long as the benefactor enters my Pure Land, then this little monk can guarantee that in the future, the Bao family will absolutely not make things difficult for Miss Bao; she can do anything she wants. Of course, if Miss Bao also enters the Pure Land, that would be the best of both worlds."

Wei Yuan stood up instantly, the Dragon Eagle already ready to go.

A monk in green monk robes walked into the study, and the guards at the door didn't notice at all. The monk's eyes were strange amber, and there was a feather mark between his eyebrows; it was the Kong Que Monk.

Li Zhi was both shocked and angry, standing up abruptly, his hand already gripping the hilt of his sword. Although this monk was clearly a Dharma Form, Li Zhi had luck on his body, had the supreme unique learning of the Four Sages Academy, and had several Dharma Form followers nearby, so he naturally wasn't afraid.

Even without followers, relying on himself alone, Li Zhi could fight an ordinary Dharma Form.

At this moment, Wei Yuan was already in the Dharma Form Nurturing Spirit Realm, so he could see that the monk was actually in the Myriad Transformation Realm, just not knowing how long it would be before he could generate a Mind-Reflection World.

Wei Yuan pressed Li Zhi, signaling him to be calm. This monk was not something an ordinary Dao Foundation could contend with; he was definitely also a one-in-ten-thousand genius, the kind who could sweep across the same rank.

!.

Wei Yuan wanted to probe the monk's tone first, so he said: "The Master wants me to join the Pure Land? Then what are the benefits?"

The monk said: "The benefactor has a connection with my Pure Land, has a great opportunity, and this is the greatest benefit. If the benefactor enters my Pure Land, you can inherit the Great Joy Wang Fu Dharma Form. At that time, Miss Bao family will also enter my Pure Land; her opportunity is a bit worse than Zhao Shi Zhu Wei's, she can inherit the Immovable Tathagata Dharma Form, and can also be a part of the Great Joy Wang Fu Dharma Form. It all depends on the benefactor."

Wei Yuan was taken aback: "Become a part of the Great Joy Wang Fu Dharma Form? Is she still her then?"

"She is naturally still her."

Wei Yuan was silent, then said: "What does the Great Joy Wang Fu Dharma Form look like? Can I see it?"

"The Buddha is in the heart; what the two benefactors see is the Buddha in your own hearts, so why not?"

The Kong Que Monk projected a light from between his eyebrows, and a Buddha statue appeared in front of the two.

The Buddha statue Li Zhi saw was leaning against a mountain peak, sitting with a majestic face, behind it were mountains and rivers, holding a precious sword, and countless women were crawling in front of the Buddha's couch, their faces all looking familiar.

What Wei Yuan saw was a five-faced, eight-armed Buddha statue. On the five faces were the five emotions of joy, anger, worry, thought, and fear. Among the eight arms, six arms held different ritual implements, five of which were a pestle, a bowl, a vase, a whip, and a sword, which was fine. The sixth one was cruel in shape, and even equipped with a magazine, which looked out of place mixed among the ritual implements.

The remaining two arms of the Buddha statue were holding a naked woman. The woman was wrapped around the Buddha statue, extremely charming.

The problem was, all five faces of the Buddha statue were Wei Yuan, and the woman was Bao Yun!

The monk said at this time: "The Buddha is in the heart; what the two benefactors see is the Buddha in your own hearts."

Li Zhi's expression tightened, and he began to ponder, his face gradually becoming solemn.

Wei Yuan was also thinking, but always felt something was wrong.

At this moment, the shadow in the moon seemed to move, and a flash of inspiration appeared in Wei Yuan's heart, and he immediately sneered: "If there is a Buddha in my heart, how could it be like this? Monk, this little trick wants to deceive me, it's still lacking!"

The Kong Que Monk's beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly, not understanding where the problem was.

Wei Yuan naturally wouldn't tell him that if there really was a Great Joy Wang Fu in his heart, there would probably be more than one hanging on it...
