Chapter 3412

"You'd better welcome your Buddhist senior!"

Xin Xin saw a flash of understanding in Ci Hui's eyes and knew that he had gained something. She smiled and said, "Perhaps this senior can give you more guidance!"

A roar that sounded like a lion's roar came from afar, and a purple cloud drifted over. On the cloud stood a purple-haired Hou that was twice as tall as the azure lion. The purple-haired Hou's purple hair was several feet long, fluttering in the wind. On the ferocious beast's head, there was no fierceness in its fist-sized eyes. Instead, it had a very warm gaze that made people feel comfortable looking at it.

Especially when it shook its head, there was a large collar with two silver bells around its neck. The "clang clang clang" sound was even more pleasing to the ears.

On the purple-haired Hou's back was a tall monk. The monk's face was simple and unadorned. His eyebrows were white and the half-foot beard below his chin was also mixed with gray. The monk wore a gray monk's robe with a scabbard hanging from his waist. One of his hands was placed in front of his chest and the other was holding a demon subduing pestle that was as thick as a duck egg.

The monk's eyes were like stars. He didn't look at Ci Hui, Xin Xin, and Xiao Hua. Instead, he looked at the Four Extremes Mountains with puzzlement like Xin Xin did before.

"Amitabha, junior Ci Hui of Green Lotus Temple greets senior …" Ci Hui didn't dare to be negligent. Before the monk withdrew his gaze, he stepped forward and bowed with his palms together.

Seeing Ci Hui step forward, Xiao Hua also braced himself and bowed, "Junior Bodhi of Small Exquisite Temple greets senior!"

However, Xin Xin wasn't in a hurry to go over. With a smile on her face, she waited for the Buddhist disciples to greet each other.

"Hmm …" The monk nodded slightly and said, "I'm Gu Zhen of Red Lotus Temple. Are you here to find Dao Sect's Venerable Fantian?"

Hearing the old monk say his Dharma name, Ci Hui didn't dare to be negligent and hurriedly replied, "Grandmaster, yes.

We're here to find Venerable Fantian for some matters. "

"What's the matter?"

Gu Zhen frowned and asked faintly, "You're a Buddhist disciple. Why are you so close to the remnants of Dao Sect?"

"This …" Ci Hui was a little embarrassed and said in a low voice, "I don't know Lord Fantian, but I came here with this female Tan Yue!"

"I am Xin Xin, a Confucian cultivator. Greetings, Grandmaster Gu Zhen!" Xin Xin didn't show any uneasiness on his face as he stepped forward and bowed.

"En, which sect is this little girl from? Or which up-and-coming aristocratic family?"

Naturally, Gu Zhen knew a little about the Hidden Immortal Continent. Hearing that the surname "Xin" was not a special family of Confucian cultivators, he nodded and asked.

Xin Xin smiled and said, "This one's birth is not worth mentioning, so it's best if I don't make a fool of myself.

Fellow Daoist Ci Hui and this little monk were all invited by me. They don't know Venerable Overturning Heaven.

However, may I know why Grandmaster Gu Zhen is here? "

Gu Zhen glanced at Xin Xin and said with a little dignity, "Venerable Overturning Heaven is a Dao Sect disciple. Although he has always been very disciplined, he is still a cultivator of the fourth level of Essence Qi. Now that the remnants of Dao Sect are said to be rising from the ashes, this old monk was ordered by the abbot to take a look and remind Venerable Overturning Heaven not to make a mistake and enter the abyss of eternal damnation."

"The three of us also arrived here half an hour ago!"

Hearing this, Xin Xin knew that things were a little strange. She didn't dare to make excuses and hurriedly explained, "The Four Extreme Mountains are completely different from before!

Venerable Overturning Heaven is also missing.

Oh, right, this one hasn't released my communication magic tool yet. "

"Hmm …" Gu Zhen smiled and waved his hand, "Why don't you try releasing that magic tool?"

"Yes ~" Xin Xin flipped her hand and threw the rhombus-shaped magic tool into the air. "Puff …" Xin Xin spat out a mouthful of true qi on it, and the rhombus-shaped magic tool slowly melted into a pool of green water. The green water flickered with light and was about to condense into the shape of a sharp arrow. However, before the arrow could condense, "Puff puff puff puff …" With a series of chaotic sounds, the green water turned into hundreds of bubbles.

"Oh?" Xin Xin raised her eyebrows in astonishment.

Then, "Puff puff puff puff …" The hundreds of bubbles burst one after another and the green water disappeared into thin air.

"Venerable Overturning Heaven … actually died??" Xin Xin's expression changed greatly.

"That's strange!"

Gu Zhen's brows furrowed, "The changes in the Four Extreme Mountains were obviously caused by Daoist cultivators. Venerable Overturning Heaven was a Daoist disciple with fourth grade essence force. How could they be so ruthless?"

"Daoist disciples are always scheming against each other. Who knows what they're thinking?

Perhaps Venerable Overturning Heaven wasn't very sociable and was ostracized by the Daoist disciples. Then, they killed him! "Xin Xin's expression slowly returned to normal as she said faintly.

However, Gu Zhen didn't agree and shook his head slightly, "Nü Tan Yue's thinking is too simple. Although it was an internal conflict between Daoist disciples, for a fourth grade essence force cultivator to be killed so easily, his opponent must be a fourth grade essence force cultivator or even higher.

Since when did Western Paradise have such a powerful Daoist cultivator? "

"Hehe," Xin Xin smiled faintly, "This isn't the Hidden Immortal Continent. There aren't any unfamiliar Daoist experts here. Even if this Daoist expert was a ninth grade essence force cultivator, what does it have to do with me?"

Gu Zhen's figure was huge, taller than ordinary people by more than half. His hands that were exposed outside of his monk robe were like palm-leaf fans and the demon subduing pestle in his hand was several times larger than usual. His bell-like eyes swept across Xin Xin, but she couldn't see his expression. However, Xin Xin's body trembled slightly and she hurriedly lowered her head as if she was frightened.

After that, Gu Zhen paid no further attention to Xin Xin and flew to the center of the Four Extreme Mountains. The purple-furred Hou also shook its head and followed behind, completely ignoring the azure lion and the strange bird.

"Roar …" Seeing the center of the Four Extreme Mountains, the Purple Fur Hou let out a loud roar that shook the surroundings. Gu Zhen waved his hand and placed the thick demon subduing pestle on the Purple Fur Hou's back. "Roar!" The roar was even louder than the Purple Fur Hou's.

Gu Zhen's roar was very powerful. Wherever the sound wave passed, Xin Xin's true qi swirled around her body and strands of golden clouds emerged from her palace dress. The clouds slightly overflowed in the sound wave and protected Xin Xin.

Xin Xin frowned slightly and asked in a low voice, "This is the Buddhist Lion's Roar. Grandmaster Gu Zhen … is this a warning?"

"Grandmaster Gu Zhen seems to be using some Buddhist divine ability. The power of this divine ability should be very strong!"

Ci Hui's face was still filled with respect as she answered in a low voice, "This lion's roar is a warning to the Daoist cultivators who might be hiding nearby to quickly show themselves if they don't have any evil intentions."

"Should we leave for a moment?" Xiao Hua looked at Gu Zhen in the distance with interest and asked with a smile.

As soon as Gu Zhen appeared, Xiao Hua immediately greeted him. Unfortunately, Gu Zhen showed no interest in this little monk and didn't say a word to Xiao Hua.

Ci Hui nodded. "Grandmaster Gu Zhen's warning is naturally a warning to us!

Let's leave this place first. "

With that, Ci Hui stepped onto the indigo lion. The indigo lion didn't back down and let out a roar. Then, it waved its tail and flew out of the Four Extreme Mountains with Ci Hui.

Xin Xin got on the strange bird and Xiao Hua also stepped onto an auspicious cloud and slowly flew out.

"Woo …" As soon as the three of them flew out of the mountain, the Buddhist light in the Four Extreme Mountains shone brightly. Gu Zhen's body grew bigger and bigger. Then, a dharma body comparable to the Mighty Vajra emerged from Gu Zhen's body.

"Roar …" At this moment, the purple-haired Hou let out a loud roar and flew a few hundred feet away from the dharma body. Then, he opened his mouth and a fist-sized alms bowl flashed with faint Buddhist light and rushed into the air.

Seeing the alms bowl slowly fly to the front of Gu Zhen's dharma body, the dharma body's giant hand also slowly waved. Chants sounded from the giant hand and a Buddhist seal flashing with brilliant Buddhist light gradually took shape between the dharma body's hands.

"Vajra Buddha Seal?!" Ci Hui raised her eyebrows and exclaimed in a low voice. "Grandmaster Gu Zhen is a Buddhist dharma protector?"

"Hehe, Grandmaster Gu Zhen holds a demon-subduing pestle and has a tall and sturdy figure. If he's not a Buddhist dharma protector, then what is he?"

Xin Xin smiled. "However, Grandmaster Gu Zhen's Vajra Buddha dharma body is actually so powerful. This is beyond my expectations."

"Amitabha. As a dharma protector, one's heart has sunk into oblivion. This life of cultivation can't be brought into the cycle of reincarnation. It can be considered a life of illusion.

Buddhist dharma protectors have always been respected. Grandmaster Gu Zhen is willing to sacrifice himself for others. This little monk truly admires you! "Ci Hui couldn't help but sigh.

Gu Zhen activated his willpower and struck the alms bowl with Vajra Buddha Seals. The alms bowl grew larger and the chants became louder and more hurried. It was as if thousands of Buddhas were chanting at the same time on the Four Extremities Mountain.

"Withdraw!"

When the alms bowl grew to over a hundred feet in size, Gu Zhen's dharma body raised his hand as if he was stretching. He grabbed the alms bowl and exerted force with his arms. The alms bowl slowly flipped over in the air with its mouth facing downward.

Gu Zhen's hands left the alms bowl and formed another Buddhist seal. As the seal fell, the alms bowl flashed with Buddhist light as if it was breathing. Then, a faint golden Buddhist light rushed out of the alms bowl and landed on a huge lake in the shape of a fan.

The lake was rippling with blue waves, but when the blue water touched the Buddhist light, it immediately flew out of the lake. The alms bowl sucked the water in the lake in like a dragon drinking water!

Xiao Hua saw that there were other places covered by Buddhist light in the deep pool, and the water was being sucked away at a speed visible to the naked eye. He was puzzled and blurted out: "Senior Martial Brother Ci Hui, this old monk … Oh, that's not right, what is Grandmaster Gu Zhen doing?"

"Of course he's absorbing water!" Xin Xin smiled. "I'm not old yet. Can't I see it?"
