Chapter 1172: Monk And Daoist
Feiyun and Yiyi met trouble the moment they left Aquamoon Paradise.
“Amitabha.” They saw a monk breaking out of a boulder and blocking their path.
This surprised both of them - this monk was learning the dao within a special boulder.Continue reading on No_veLbIn
He had a fierce expression like a vajra. His kasaya exuded a blinding golden light.
He placed his palms together to show respect toward Yiyi - clearly an acquaintance. She respectfully greeted him back.
He then bowed in the direction of Feiyun and said: “Benefactor Feng, I come from Repentance Temple. My dharma title is Five-willow, I am here to invite you to Buddhist World under the order of our abbot.”
Repentance was a temple from Time Immemorial - far stronger than regular central dynasties and perhaps even Aquamoon Paradise.
Of course, few knew the truth regarding these ancient lineages. There were only legends about them, not verified facts.
Feiyun had expected this invitation already due to his appearance with Di Zhong. The information they revealed must have spread across the human kingdoms and caused quite a stir.
Many big shots must have been looking for them. Of course, they wouldn’t be able to invite Di Zhong nor could they find him. Feiyun became the only possible target.
The two couldn’t respond before more people appeared - a group of daoists.
All of them looked transcending while wearing the regular uniform and holding a horsetail whisk. They looked like immortals from the upper world.
They greeted Yiyi before surrounding Feiyun and the monk.
One of them came over and bowed with a smile: “I come from Fortune Primogenitor Grotto, my title is Qian’er. Fortune Master invites you to Spirit World, this is his letter, please take a look.”
Feiyun knew the content without reading the letter. Nonetheless, Fortune Master was a top-ranking human with numerous disciples. Even a few lords of central dynasties were his students once. Feiyun couldn’t afford to offend him.
Just like that, the group had two extra members - a monk and a daoist. Of course, a bunch of their disciples and descendants tagged along as well.
These juniors were all big shots - comparable to the nobles back in Sixth Central.
They didn’t get far before adding more members - Ximen Chuixiao and the turtle’s group.
Aquamoon Paradise initially had a portal leading straight to Chaos. Unfortunately, it was destroyed during the demon invasion. Thus, they had to go the long way around - five different portals before making it to Chaos.
They arrived late at night and didn’t have time to appreciate the sheer size of this ancient city. Instead, they came to a training manor owned by Aquamoon.
Yiyi thought that Feiyun was virtually one of them at this point. He was fine to come to the manor despite the female disciples there.
The same couldn’t be said for the rest of the group. Repentance Temple and Fortune Grotto had their own place in Chaos City, but the monk and daoist were afraid of losing Feiyun. Thus, they found a nearby inn to stay in.
As for Ximen Chuixiao, he bid goodbye the moment they entered Chaos City. He mentioned having to meet a woman for a business deal that had been overdue for three hundred years.
Feiyun understood that it must have been another of Chuixiao's unsavory ventures, but would the woman still remember it three centuries later?
He then went back to thinking about his own issue - Dongfang Jingyue. Yiyi had ordered people to go look for her. News should come back tomorrow.
As for Yiyi, she was curious about this woman. How did she become noticed by the deity?
Feiyun didn’t cultivate after entering his room at the manor. He took out Heaven Jewel and found his mind to be free from unnecessary thoughts.
So this was an embryo capable of becoming a saint artifact. Fo Canzi, despite being powerful, still couldn’t predict who would inherit his Buddhist art. Thus, he left this to Shui Yueting and asked her to give it to his inheritor in the future.
“Senior, I don’t know why you left this to me but the Soul Spirit Stone inside is exactly what I need. Thank you.”
This stone ranked third among the eighteen, perhaps even more valuable than a drop of blood from a grand saint.
It could help an empty embryo condense a spirit but most importantly - for someone who had lost a soul regain theirs.
Although he couldn’t revive Nangong Hongyan yet, he could still use it to gather her soul and memories. He had been waiting for this for a long time now.
