Chapter 1021
Jin Lincan stared at the two people in front of him. At this moment, Zi Chen was completely ignored.
"Do you really want to go against the Five Elements Powers?" Jin Lincan said coldly.
"Hmph." The Earth Origin Realm expert snorted. His attitude was clear.
The Demon Clan was much more direct. The Demon Clan expert said, "Aren't we enemies?"
"Can you represent the Ancient Clan and the Demon Clan?" Jin Lincan asked again.
In the center of the city, there was a nine-floored pagoda. Three people stood in the pagoda. One of them was from the Demon Clan, while the other two were from the Ancient Clan and the Jin Clan.
The appearance of the Demon Clan and the Ancient Clan at the same time did not surprise the Jin Clan. The Heaven Origin Realm was already the peak of the Sky Martial Continent. This was the true Sky Martial Realm.
At this realm, to them, there were no enemies in this world. It was not as if they would fight to the death with the Demon Clan. If there was a need, there was no harm in cooperating with the Demon Clan.
"You want to interfere?" The Jin Clan expert said.
"Your family won't be able to handle it." The Ancient Clan expert replied.
The Jin Clan expert chuckled, "It's not just my family."
The Ancient Clan expert said, "Even if the five families join hands, we won't be able to handle it."
"It's not just the five families."
"Even if all the families join hands, we won't be able to handle it."
The Jin Clan expert was surprised, "So sure."
The Ancient Clan expert said, "We recently found some ancient books."
"Ancient books. There are ancient books about the Lightning Divine Palace." The Jin Clan expert was completely shocked.
"That's right. Coincidentally, we also have some understanding of the Lightning Divine Palace." The Ancient Clan expert said.
"Is the rumor true that the Lightning Divine Palace has the secret to becoming a God?"
"It's true."
The Jin Clan expert's expression changed again. However, after a while, he calmed down, "What do you want?"
"Share."
"Okay."
With just a few words, both sides had already reached an agreement. From the beginning to the end, the Ancient Clan expert did not mention Zi Chen's name, nor did he say that he wanted to protect him.
However, when the agreement was reached, the confrontation between the three Earthly Yuan cultivators was over. The Jin Clan left. Apparently, they no longer cared about Zi Chen or the Tomes of Arcane.
In the big forces, the Sky Origin Stage cultivators were the ones who made the decisions. In the eyes of the Sky Origin Stage cultivators, Zi Chen was just a nobody, maybe not even a nobody. Maybe he was very talented, but those who could reach the Sky Origin Stage were all talented cultivators.
As for the Heavenly Book in his hands, it was not that attractive to those at the Heavenly Origin Stage. At the very least, it would not be able to surpass the Lightning Divine Hall.
Zi Chen, who was only in the Human Origin Stage, was nothing in their eyes. They weren't even interested in mentioning him. However, the agreement had been reached, and the two sides were now allies. At this critical moment, no one would pay any attention to Zi Chen.
The retreat of the Jin Clan was really unexpected. After all, the Jin Clan had suffered a loss this time.
"Zi Chen, we're leaving too. We'll find you for a drink later." The Perfect Body left with the Ancient race.
"Zi Chen, come visit me when you have time." After saying that, the Demon also left.
Soon, the people from the three forces left. The corpses on the ground were also taken away. Of course, before they were taken away, the wealth in them had been collected in advance.
Seeing the monk collect the spirit rings and search for resources, the Buddhist monks had strange expressions.
"Thank you for your help, Masters." Seeing that the monk ignored them, Zi Chen hurriedly went forward to thank them.
"Benefactor, you're welcome."
The monks bowed to Zi Chen and then looked at the monk. Clearly, they were more interested in the monk than Zi Chen.
"Who are you people?" After the monk collected the resources, he looked at the bald men and asked in a ruffian manner.
The monks put their palms together again. The leader said, "I'm Ming Xin."
"Ming Xin."
The monk's eyes flashed with disdain. "Why does a monk have to call a woman by her name?"
His words immediately caused an awkward situation. A monk beside him explained, "We're from the Ming generation. I'm Ming Jue."
"I'm Good and Evil." The monk pretended to be an old man.
Ming Xin chatted with the monk. Ming Xin's words were kind and humble. He had the temperament of a monk. Compared to the monk, he was much more ruffian. Fortunately, he restrained himself and didn't call him Lord Buddha.
"You invited us to the Buddhist Sect." The monk looked at Ming Xin.
Ming Xin emphasized, "I invited you, Good and Evil."
"What exactly is the Buddhist Sect that you belong to?" The monk asked again.
Ming Xin explained, "The Buddhist Sect is not a thing. It's a branch of the Buddhist Sect."
"Buddhist Sect."
The monk was stunned. His expression changed. He hesitated for a full minute and finally nodded, "Alright."
"I'll go to the Buddhist Sect for a while. I'll be back soon." The monk turned around and said to Zi Chen.
"Be careful."
The monk nodded and then left with the monks. When they reached the outside of the city, they saw another monk standing there.
"Martial Uncle." Ming Xin and the others went up to greet him.
This was an old monk who had come to rescue them. His realm was at the Earth Yuan Realm, but he didn't enter after sensing something abnormal.
After the monk left, Zi Chen and company had nowhere to go. They could only return to the tavern. Just as they took their seats, the Perfect Body entered the tavern.
After entering, the Perfect Body's expression became extremely exaggerated as he looked at Su Mengyao and company.
"Beauties, hello. My name is the Perfect Body." The Perfect Body extended his hand.
However, he awkwardly realized that his hand had stopped in midair. No one paid any attention to him.
"How is that possible? I'm much more handsome than Zi Chen." The Perfect Body was puzzled. He was telling the truth.
Although Zi Chen was handsome, compared to him, there was a huge difference. They were not on the same level at all.
"A man's charm doesn't depend on his appearance, but on his inner qualities." Lin Xue's eyes were filled with contempt.
The Perfect Body awkwardly retracted his hand and sat down. Zhang Ming and company were already very familiar with him. Both parties greeted each other and then Zi Chen introduced them one by one. He started with Lei Ming and ended with Su Mengyao and company.
"Zi Chen, although you don't look that good, I have to say that your luck with women is really good." The Perfect Body sighed from the bottom of his heart.
Zi Chen clearly didn't want to discuss this matter with the Perfect Body. He asked, "What are you doing here?"
"To drink, of course."
"That's not the problem."
"Haven't you heard of Lightning Divine Temple?" The Perfect Body said.
"It's indeed Lightning Divine Temple."
A light flashed in Zi Chen's eyes before he asked, "Then, are we here because of you?"
"What?"
A hint of confusion appeared in the Perfect Body's eyes. He seemed to have thought of something and asked, "By the way, why are you here? Did you hear that Lightning Divine Temple appeared here?"
Seeing that the Perfect Body didn't know anything, Zi Chen didn't ask further.
To his surprise, the Perfect Body's expression turned much more serious. He looked at Zi Chen and said, "Lightning Divine Temple is very dangerous. You can go and take a look, but I'm afraid it's not appropriate for them to follow."
Zi Chen had already made up his mind. Even if the Perfect Body didn't say anything, he planned on letting Su Mengyao and company return first.
The Five Elements faction was determined to kill him. Furthermore, this was the Jin family's faction. Zi Chen naturally didn't feel at ease leaving Su Mengyao and company here.
After the crowd dispersed, Zi Chen was thinking about this question in his heart. However, he did not immediately bring it up. The monks who went to the Buddhist Sect that day did not return. Zi Chen took a few people with him and wandered around the city.
After a full three days, Zi Chen finally asked them to leave. Zhang Ming and company only felt a little regretful that they couldn't see Lightning Divine Temple, but they knew that Zi Chen was doing it for their own good.
As for Lin Xue and company, they were naturally reluctant, but they had no choice but to leave.
There was a teleportation array in the city. The Perfect Body had already pointed out the direction for everyone.
Zi Chen personally watched as the group stepped onto the teleportation array. His eyes were naturally filled with reluctance.
After returning, Zi Chen was somewhat surprised to see the monk return. He asked, "They've left. Are you coming?"
"Of course not, but you have to make a trip with me now," said the monk.
"Where to?"
"I made a trip to the Buddhist sect and they told me some secrets. Then, they said that there are incomplete Buddhist scriptures in the Buddhist sect's ruins and that I can bring someone in. Their original intention was for me to bring a monk in, but I don't know them well, so I decided to bring you in," said the monk.
"That's something used by monks. It's not of much use to me. Why did you bring me along?" Zi Chen found it odd.
"To be honest, it's said that it's very dangerous there. I'm afraid that I'll die inside, so I came to find you."
Zi Chen asked with a smile, "You asked me to be your scapegoat?"
"Pui, I think the two of us have a higher chance of survival."
Even if it was a dragon's lair or a tiger's den, Zi Chen would follow.
"Are two people enough? If not, we can call the Perfect Body," said Zi Chen.
"Two people is already the limit."
Before leaving, Zi Chen went to find the Perfect Body and said that he would be leaving for a while.
"Hurry up. Lightning Divine Temple has already appeared in this area. It will probably appear soon," said the Perfect Body.
"I know. I'm just looking for something. I'll be back soon."
"You have to come back as soon as possible. Once Lightning Divine Temple truly appears, it'll be an opportunity for us."
Zi Chen smiled. He didn't dare hope for the chance to become a god.
The two of them headed for the Buddhist sect. The Buddhist sect was hundreds of thousands of kilometers away in a desert. The monk brought Zi Chen in without needing to report.
Along the way, Zi Chen realized that there weren't many Buddhist disciples, but they weren't weak. Furthermore, after entering the Buddhist sect, there was a pure Buddhist power surging within the Buddhist sect. He felt much more relaxed.
Zi Chen enjoyed this feeling very much. He stood aloof from worldly affairs and had a natural peace. In that instant, he had the urge to convert.
Deep in the Buddhist sect, there was a hall. In the hall sat an old monk.
The moment Zi Chen and the monk entered, the old monk's gaze landed on Zi Chen. His gaze was calm and deep like an abyss.
"This is the helper you found," the old monk said. His words were slow but clear.
"Is there a problem?" The monk retorted without much respect.
The old monk shook his head and smiled kindly. "Of course there's no problem."
"Then can we leave?" the monk said again, his attitude still cold.
"Let's go." The old monk stood up and personally led the monk and Zi Chen.
"This is the current sect master of the Buddhist sect." The old monk walked in front while the monk explained to Zi Chen in a low voice.
Zi Chen was surprised. "He's the sect master, yet you still have such an attitude."
