Chapter 293

The Eight Hardships Array was an array formation used by eminent monks of the Buddhist Sect for epiphany. After passing this array, one's worries would be eliminated and one would have Buddhist thoughts.

From then on, one would convert to Buddhism and become proficient in the Buddhist Dharma.

On the contrary, one would forever fall into the Eight Hardships Array and their essence souls would collapse.

Of course, every monk who entered the Eight Hardships Array to hone their Buddhist hearts would receive the attention of Arhats or Bodhisattvas to ensure the stability of their essence souls.

In short, the Eight Hardships Array was actually a part of the Buddhist Sect's "Four Great Emptiness".

If Azuro was still Azuro, the son of Asura who had converted to Buddha's grace, he would not be afraid of the Eight Hardships Array.

Seeing that Azuro did not enter the array for a long time, Du 'e said calmly, "Amitabha.

"Amitabha. Asura, why are you hesitating?"

The voice passed through the Dharma artifact and entered the Buddha Realm in the golden alms bowl.

Azuro said calmly, "I just recalled the past.

"It's just that I've recalled the past, the things that have already turned into smoke."

With that, he stepped into the Eight Hardships Array without hesitation.

Du 'e narrowed his eyes slightly and examined Asura, who was in the middle of the formation. He saw this ugly but valiant youngest son of the Shura King walk slowly but firmly through the Eight Distresses Formation.

During the process, his expression was calm.

After passing through the Eight Hardships Array, Azuro did not stop and walked up the stairs. Soon, he arrived at the ancient temple at the top of the mountain.

There was a bronze bell on the top of the ancient temple.

Azuro slowly walked up the stairs, pressed his palms together in front of the bronze bell, and chanted a Buddhist proclamation.

Clang!

He pushed the bell hammer and sounded the first bell.

The Ancient Bronze Bell let out a melodious chime, and a ripple-like golden light spread out.

Clang, clang, clang …

The bell rang continuously, and ripples of golden light swept across Azuro's body. First, a golden light lit up between his eyebrows, and then his body was covered in a faint layer of golden light that was clear and translucent.

After the 81st bell rang, Azuro released the bell hammer, pressed his palms together, and lowered his head.

Dhu Lohan smiled.

"The Buddha's heart is pure. I will report to Guangdong Bodhisattva. Recently, demonic aura had surged in the periphery of the Hundred Thousand Mountains. The wildfire of the Southern Demon Nation had been suppressed for 500 years.

"We are ordered to guard the Southern Border. We must not be careless."

Azuro nodded.

"Of course."

…

Southern Border.

Outside the courtyard, Lina was gnawing on a sweet potato. She glanced at the small figure beside her and explained helplessly.



Little Bean held the sweet potato that belonged to her and silently nibbled on it. She faced her master with her back and the back of her head, looking like she was cutting off all ties with him.

Lina thought for a moment and pushed Xu Lingyin's shoulder. Xu Lingyin twisted her body and didn't want her to touch her.

"Lina, I ', I'll give you. Sweet Hardships."

"Hardships Array Sect Sect Division.

Xu Lingyin turned her head abruptly and stared at her master with shining eyes. "Really?"

Lina reluctantly looked at the sweet potato that she had just taken a bite of. She endured the pain and handed it over.

Xu Lingyin grabbed it happily and held it in her arms.

"Mu". Dao.

"Not.

. Sect. Master. Master.......

. Master Sect Sect Sect Sect...

"If there's something good, shouldn't you share it with Master? . "Little Hardships Array Sect Sect Leader.

The little bean was also beaming with joy. He lowered his head and spat at the sweet potato.

Lina, "…"

…

In the room, Xu Qi 'an came out of the Buddha's Pagoda. He looked around but didn't see Luo Yuheng.

The smell of Nation Preceptor's body and protein lingered in the air.

The bed was a mess.

Although Little Baihu is a cub, but also very sensible, black eyes turn, looking at the bed, angrily said:

"I'm going to tell Sister Yeji that you had sex with another woman behind her back."

"How vulgar. Demon Clan is Demon Clan …" Xu Qi 'an glanced at her and said angrily,

"How can you say I had sex with another woman? Do you have any evidence?"

Little White Fox raised its paw and patted the table. It said in a fierce tone,

"Every time you slept with Sister Yeji, the bed is so messy. I even saw you hit Sister Yeji's butt … "

Xu Qi 'an gave it a slap and scolded,

"What do you know? Hurry up and summon Her Majesty. I have something to talk to her."

Under Xu Yinluo's despotic power, Shirohime yielded. She curled up on the table and covered her body with her tail. Suddenly, a strong willpower awakened in her body.

The two palm-sized fox stood up. Light overflowed from her left eye. She sighed with a sweet and charming voice,

"My prestige is declining day by day. Have I become a character that you can summon at any time?"

Cut the crap. It's business … Xu Qi 'an frowned and said,

"I reviewed the battle with Azuro today and found that he didn't go all out that day."

"You just found out?" Nine-tailed Celestial Fox said with a smile.

This little slut had indeed seen through the clues back then. Xu Qi 'an said expressionlessly,

"Her Majesty, you will lose my friendship like this."

Nine-tailed Celestial Fox snorted and squatted obediently. Her voice was soft and magnetic.

"There are two possibilities. First, Azuro let you take away Shenshu's severed limbs for some reason. He wants to improve further. "

Xu Qi 'an frowned, "What do you mean?"

"Azuro reincarnated and returned after five hundred years. But the one who returned was still the youngest son of the Shura King, Azuro. Where is his reincarnated body? If the reincarnated body has reached the Fourth Stage and has completed his Great Wish, then as long as he completes it, he can achieve Bodhisattva Buddhahood.

"Based on this, his Great Wish is most likely related to the demon race. Or to seize Southern Border for the Buddhists. But Southern Border is already the territory of the Buddhists. "

Xu Qi 'an touched his chin, "So we have to do it again?"

"Second, all this is a trap set by the Buddhists to trap the demon race. Maybe when we attack 'Nanguo City', we will directly encounter Guangdong Bodhisattva. I will definitely be able to escape, but for you, it is hard to say. "

Xu Qi 'an was deep in thought,

"You seem to have a solution?"

Nine-tailed Celestial Fox smiled slyly,

"If Azuro wants to achieve Bodhisattva Buddhahood, then we can beat him at his own game. If the Buddhists want to trap the demon race, then we can beat him at his own game. "

Xu Qi 'an asked straightforwardly,

"What do you want to do?"

Little White Fox squatted obediently and said with a smile,

"Do you want to fight to Alantuo and see what state the Buddha is in? See if the statue of Confucian Sages has been damaged?

"When I helped you deal with Xu Pingfeng that day, I asked for a few teleportation magic tools from the supervisor. Then, I sent someone to secretly send a stone plate with the corresponding formation inscribed on it to the Western Region. As long as we crush the teleportation magic tool, we can teleport to the location of the stone plate. It is only thirty miles away from Alantuo.

"If Guangxian dares to leave Alantuo, we will teleport there directly, snatch back Shenshu's head, and let him be completely resurrected."

Xu Qi 'an said unhappily, "Will Guangxian Bodhisattva let us teleport?"

As for the Supervisor and Nine-tailed Celestial Fox's secret dealings, he did not find it strange. For the former, this was basic. For the latter, after planning for five hundred years, if she did not even have this little setup, then what was the point of reviving her country? She should get married and have children as soon as possible.

"You don't have to worry about this, I have my ways."

Nine-tailed Celestial Fox's tone was very firm.

Xu Qi 'an nodded and said,

"If there are no accidents in this revival, then I want you to help me capture Dhu Lohan, and let him remove the last Magic Sealing Nail from me."

Nine-tailed Celestial Fox smiled and said,

"I will also tell you the location of the Netherworld Silk."

Xu Qi 'an's heart beat wildly, and he said anxiously,

"You know where the Netherworld Silk is?"

The Netherworld Silk was one of the main materials for crafting the Soul Summoning Banner.

The Soul Summoning Banner was a necessary artifact to resurrect Wei Yuan.

Nine-tailed Celestial Fox said,

"No hurry, we can talk about this after the Monster Kingdom is restored."

…

Dongling City.

Xu Pingfeng sat in front of the Bronze Pill Furnace, holding a palm-leaf fan in his hand, gently fanning the green flame.

"Should we go back to Southern Border?"

He turned his head and looked at Galo Tree Bodhisattva who was sitting diagonally opposite him.

"If I go back, I will fall into Supervisor's trap," Galo Tree Bodhisattva said lightly.

"That's true, Teacher has long colluded with Nine-tailed Celestial Fox."

Xu Pingfeng nodded, "Using the Monster Race of Southern Border to restrain the Buddhists was a plan he had long planned, and he just used my eldest son to do it. Let's wait for news in Qingzhou. "

Galo Tree Bodhisattva closed his eyes and meditated, saying,

"Scheming is too clever."

He did not finish his sentence.

After hearing this, Xu Pingfeng's smile suddenly became sly.

…

Jingshan City.

Salen Agu stood at the peak of a barren mountain, looking south.

"After the Shanhai Pass battle, luck will be in the Southwest."

The cloaked old man sighed softly.

"Great Wizard, do you think the Southern Monster Kingdom can be restored?"

Wu Da Pagoda, the only Spirit Intellect Master of the Witchcraft Sect, asked.

"The Monster Race is not enough, but we still have Xu Qi'an," Salen Agu said with a smile.

"I wonder how strong he is. If the Southern Monster Kingdom wins this battle, it will really shake the Nine Provinces." Wu Da Pagoda frowned.

"Just like when the Buddhists swept the Monster Kingdom, the whole world was shocked."

After a pause, he muttered, "Ilbu sent the Golden Echo Stone, why did he take so long?"

Salen Agu said lightly,

"The time is not right."

…

Capital.

Stargazing Tower, Eight Trigrams Platform.

Zhao Shou stood at the edge of the towering rooftop, looking down at the capital.

"The capital is still as prosperous as ever, but in my eyes, it is covered in darkness and depression. Luck has become muddled."

He stroked his beard and sighed.

Then, he turned to look at the Supervisor.

"You have lost so much power that you can't even break Galo Tree's two Dharma Idols. If this goes on, does Daibun still have a chance?"

The Supervisor said lightly,

"All things flourish and decline, it is all fate. From Jeanne d 'Arc to Xu Pingfeng, and then Xu Qi'an, they are all people born in times of need. They are all calamities for the Central Plains and the human race. "

Zhao Shou frowned, "The human race?"

Not Daibun!

The Supervisor said with a smile, "The secrets of heaven cannot be revealed. I peep into the secrets of heaven and know the fate of heaven. I am also a person who will face the calamity. Zhao Shou, do you know why I have suppressed the Confucians for two hundred years? "

Zhao Shou said lightly, "The secrets of heaven cannot be revealed."

The Supervisor nodded, "You are worth teaching."

Zhao Shou chuckled, then turned around and faced the south.

"Whether or not we can restrain the Buddhists will depend on this battle. I hope he won't disappoint us. "

The Supervisor smiled and asked in return,

"When has he ever disappointed us?"

He raised his cup, took a sip, and said,

"Did you come to the capital to chat with me?"

Zhao Shou said, "Oh." He seemed to have just remembered.

"Yang Gong sent me a memorial, saying that the Gu Race is willing to form an alliance with Daibun and help fight the rebel army of Cloud Province. He hopes that I can pass it on to the young emperor. I need your permission to enter the palace. "

Even if it was eight hundred kilometers, it would not be as fast as using the Confucian secret method.

The Supervisor nodded, "Go.

The war in Qingzhou is urgent. The young emperor and Zhu Gongzheng are worried. It's good to calm them down. "
