226 Is It a Foolish Old Man Paying His Debts?
The stage at which Heaven and Earth would communicate with Qing Fu naturally made Fang Jinyu sigh. He felt like his mouth was stuffed with lemons and couldn’t help but be jealous, but at the same time, he wanted to break through the Incarnation stage even more.
Thus, Fang Jinyu prepared to work hard on his cultivation.
After all, the problem of the Close to Incarnation Elixir being ineffective had been resolved.
Now, Fang Jinyu could use the elixir to improve his cultivation.
However, at this moment, Qing Fu said, “Mother, since you care so much about your lost lifespan, then you should have a few more magic treasures like the stone cauldron!”
“Qing Fu, are you saying that I have some hidden problem?” Fang Jinyu immediately reacted.
The little girl said, “There is a thread on your body. Although it is broken, as long as that thread exists, you will lose 200 years of your lifespan in the future.”
“You noticed it long ago?” Fang Jinyu was stunned. When he heard what Qing Fu said, he immediately remembered the “200 years lifespan.”
Fang Jinyu thought that he had cut it off back then, but he didn’t expect it to still be connected.
However, it turned out that he would lose 200 years of his lifespan in the future. No wonder he lost 200 years of his lifespan, but his body didn’t change at all. He thought that it was because he had a long lifespan.
“That’s right! Mother, I thought you wouldn’t care since you have a long lifespan.”
Fang Jinyu didn’t blame Qing Fu because he had a long lifespan. If the Close to Incarnation Elixir hadn’t stumped him, he probably wouldn’t have remembered it.
Fang Jinyu asked, “Why is it my future’s 200 years lifespan?” He thought, “Isn’t the later the lifespan is taken away, the greater the benefits for the other party?”
“It’s because the higher one’s cultivation base is, the greater the amount of luck one carries.”
Fang Jinyu frowned and thought, “It turns out that it involved luck.”
“Mother, you don’t have to worry too much. As long as you keep that stone cauldron or have another magic treasure like that stone cauldron, you can suppress that broken thread. Moreover, you might even be able to use it to slightly trouble the person fishing behind the scenes!” As Qing Fu spoke, her large eyes suddenly blinked.
It was obvious that Qing Fu was up to something.
When Fang Jinyu heard it, he couldn’t help but look happy. After all, no one wanted to have hidden dangers in their bodies.
Afterward, Fang Jinyu officially began his closed-door cultivation.
Fang Jinyu needed to advance courageously!
While Fang Jinyu was in closed-door cultivation, Qing Fu was bored out of her mind. Suddenly, she saw the Mountain Man that the Fang Sect disciple had captured. She grabbed the strange, mindless creature with her small hand and ran off to somewhere unknown.
It also made the Fang Sect begin to be heavily guarded.
It was because they had no idea how the Mountain Man had disappeared.
…
On the other hand, the “human-heart spirit” that was difficult to “see” had already escaped from the area where the Fang Sect was located. After all, they expected the leader of the group, the Nascent Soul stage “human-heart spirit,” to be already dead.
The death of a Nascent Soul stage existence was no small matter to any race.
However, to the “human-heart spirit,” it was just a little bit of trouble.
They ran towards a certain place. A year had passed, but they still hadn’t reached their destination. Three years had passed, but they still hadn’t reached their destination. However, after nearly seven years, they finally arrived at their destination.
After such a long migration, the distance they flew was naturally not short. It was a total of billions of kilometers!
It was because this was the core of the Buddhist Realm.
The Black Ancient Temple!
Around the ancient temple was a place filled with people, which was rare in the realm.
There was a large, resplendent palace here. It was for the monks to live in because they were the noblest people in this world. If one wanted to become a monk, one could only do so through inheritance. In other words, only those whose parents were monks and had the monks’ bloodline were qualified to become noble monks!
People who ranked below the monks were the nobles.
They were all related to the Black Ancient Temple and occupied one-third of the land here.
As for the other two-thirds, they were in the hands of the monks of the Black Ancient Temple.
Other than the monks and nobles, there were other people here. These people were the most numerous. The monks and nobles combined didn’t even makeup one in ten thousand of these people.
However, these people only had one identity—slaves.
Every slave owed a large amount of money to the nobles and monks. It would take them a lifetime to repay it! Moreover, because one had to pay interest at the beginning, the debt one owed didn’t decrease but increased instead!
In this place, there were many slaves. The moment they were born, they were already burdened with the debts of their fathers, grandfathers, and even great-grandfathers!
Therefore, from the moment they were born, they were destined to work hard for the nobles and monks for the rest of their lives.
Therefore, human lives were the least valuable here.
The decorations in the homes of many nobles and monks were made from human skin and bones.
Here, the most useless thing was human flesh, because it could only be fed to animals.
When the “human-heart spirit” flew back, they were immediately discovered by the monks here. Hence, they walked out one after another and prostrated themselves before the “human-heart spirits.”
It was because it was a guardian under a “Bodhisattva with a physical body.”
Among them, the kings of the “human-heart spirit” had already reached the realm of “Golden Arhat” and could transform between reality and illusion, gathering and dispersing by heart!
However, soon, some monks discovered that there was something wrong with the “human-heart spirits.”
“Where did Meng Arhat go?”
Meng Arhat was the Nascent Soul stage “human-heart spirit.”
In the past, Meng Arhat would be the one to bring the “human-heart spirits” back. However, only a few Core Formation stage “human-heart spirits” were responsible for bringing the other “human-heart spirits” back.
Soon, the monks knew what had happened.
Someone had killed Meng Arhat!
“Who is it? How dare you?! Aren’t you afraid of going to hell after death?” Some monks were furious because it was a provocation for them. They hadn’t experienced such a provocation for a long time.
“Some human-heart spirits said that it was an immortal sect that suddenly appeared in Mount Hundred Boats. None of them respected Buddhism! They originally wanted to use Buddhism to influence these people and make them slaves to atone for their sins so that they wouldn’t go to hell after death! However, nobody expected that not only were these people not grateful to them, they even directly took Meng Arhat away!”
Some monks could communicate with the “human-heart spirits,” which were Buddha’s creations. After communicating with it, all the monks who knew about it were furious.
Therefore, under the pleas of the monks, the “Bodhisattva with a physical body” quickly issued an edict.
“Order the Golden Arhat Mu Anjie and the Golden Arhat Tan Yinsi to lead ten major monks, three hundred monks, and a thousand novices to take down this sinful sect!”
“Bodhisattva, why do you need so many people?” Soon, a golden arhat asked in confusion.
“I’m just letting them gain some knowledge. After all, it’s been many years since I’ve seen such an ostentatious immortal sect.” It was the response of the “Bodhisattva with a physical body.”
