Joyful Clan, Wisdom King Hall.
Kong Se looked at the extinguished Purple Copper Heart Lamp on the incense table. Fangzheng's purplish-black face was so gloomy that it was about to drip water. The surrounding elders lowered their eyes. No one said a word.
"Bai Xiang, that trash, is dead. He even lost the sect's treasure, the Wisdom King Vajra!"
Kong Se glanced at the Elders and was disgusted by their pretense. She said in a low voice, "Elders, don't you have anything to say?"
"Bai Xiang knows his limits. He took the Wisdom King Vajra out to avenge his disciple."
An elder who was on good terms with Bai Xiang could not help but speak up for him. The sect master did not care about Bai Xiang's life at all. He only cared about the Wisdom King Vajra. This displeased him. He paused. "I think the most important thing now is to find Bai Xiang's murderer. The Wisdom King Vajra must be in his hands. "
Another elder speculated, "The West Buddha State won't dare to oppose us. There's news from the main altar that a Buddhist expert came to the Eastern Lands. Maybe it was that outsider who killed Bai Xiang and stole the Wisdom King Vajra. "
Kong Se nodded. This made sense. The ten Buddhist sects were extremely powerful in the West Buddha State. It was unimaginable that someone dared to kill Bai Xiang in the sect's territory!
A powerhouse with such strength would not kill Bai Xiang easily. Moreover, Bai Xiang was not stupid. He would not provoke someone he could not afford to. Only outsiders would not care about such things. However, Bai Xiang had the Wisdom King Vajra. He could protect himself against a sage. One could well imagine how powerful the person who made the move was.
Kong Se did not care about Bai Xiang's life. If possible, he did not want to fight to the death with a sage. However, the Wisdom King Vajra was the sect's treasure. It could not fall into the hands of outsiders. There was no way he would back down.
The elders looked at Kong Se without saying anything. They began discussing among themselves. Some suggested activating the Bright Concubine Token now and forcefully summoning the Wisdom King Vajra. Even if they could not summon it back, they could determine the opponent's location.
Some suggested being mature and prudent. They had to make all sorts of preparations. It would be best if they could get some experts to help. They would only act when they were confident. Some elders also thought that they should contact the main altar and ask Kasyapa to give the order to kill this person.
"Alright, all of you go out and investigate that person's situation first." Kong Se was a little impatient and chased all the elders out together.
It was quiet in the Wisdom King Hall. Kong Se knelt in front of the Wisdom King's statue and silently recited the Colorless Joy Mantra ten times. Only then did her troubled heart slowly calm down.
In fact, what everyone said just now made sense. Kong Se weighed her options and decided to visit Kasyapa first.
There were a total of eight Venerables in the West Buddha Headquarter. The eight of them formed a group of elders to manage the Buddhist affairs. Great Venerable Kasyapa was the leader of the council of elders. His status and authority were the highest.
Generally speaking, the council of elders would not interfere with the internal affairs of the ten sects. However, once the group of elders made a decision, the ten sects would have to abide by it and would not be allowed to go against it.
The Joyful Clan was ranked last among the Ten Sects. It had not produced any geniuses in the past few hundred years, and its influence was declining day by day. His position in the headquarters was getting lower and lower. Helpless, Kong Se had long since latched onto Kasyapa's coattails.
This matter involved people from the Eastern Lands and was of great importance. Even Kong Se didn't dare to make a decision on her own. She had to consult Kasyapa first.
Kong Se lit up the Heavenly Rhinoceros Incense. A wisp of spiritual fragrance rose into the air and connected with the Tempest Temple's incense burner in the distance. Kong Se activated her magic power and entered the void with the help of the Wisdom King's statue's faith power.
Under the guidance of the spiritual fragrance, Kong Se found the Tempest Temple's location in the void. She activated her magic power again and entered the Tempest Temple through the void.
It was a spacious and clean meditation room. The windows were bright and the table was clean. The furnishings were simple, and there was only a statue of the World Venerable placed against the wall. Great Venerable Kasyapa sat in meditation facing the World Venerable. He was short and fat with a round head and fair skin. From the back alone, one would think that he was a magnanimous elder.
However, Kong Se knew how powerful Kasyapa was. This old monk who always smiled like the Maitreya Buddha was extremely cunning. He was the most powerful figure among the eight Venerables.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been the leader of the council of elders. One must know that the internal strife in the headquarters was even more intense. If he only knew how to be kind to others, he would have been swallowed by others long ago.
Kasyapa was obviously doing his homework. Although Kong Se was anxious, the Heavenly Rhinoceros Incense was extremely precious. He had to return as soon as possible. However, no matter how anxious he was, he dared not disturb Kasyapa. He could only stand at the side quietly with his head slightly lowered. His posture was very humble.
After waiting for more than two hours, Kasyapa let out a long sigh and slowly turned around when he heard the sound of a bell in the distance.
"You must have waited for a long time. Come, sit." Kasyapa smiled and pointed at the straw mat, indicating for Kong Se to sit down.
Kong Se put his palms together and bowed before sitting down respectfully. "Venerable One, White Elephant was killed and the Wisdom King's Devil-Subduing Pestle was stolen. I suspect that it was done by someone from the Eastern Lands. "
"Oh." Kasyapa nodded calmly. "What do you want to do then?"
"My sect has the Wisdom King's Token, which can lock onto the Wisdom King's Devil-Subduing Pestle. However, this matter is of great importance."
Kong Se said sincerely, "I dare not make a decision on my own. Please enlighten me, Venerable One. "
A smile appeared on Kasyapa's white and plump face. His three-layered chin made the smile extremely amiable. However, Kong Se felt guilty when he saw Kasyapa's smile. He had followed Kasyapa for a long time. Every time he saw Kasyapa's smile, someone would be unlucky.
"You've done well. You can't only think about yourself in such a big matter. You must look at the bigger picture. Wukong has quite a background. "
Kasyapa said, "Don't be in a hurry to take action on this matter. I'll inform you when I have a decision."
Kong Se was a little disappointed. He had come all the way here, but Kasyapa dismissed him with just a sentence. It was a little too much. However, he dared not show it. He could only plead, "White Elephant was killed and the Wisdom King's Devil-Subduing Pestle was stolen. Everyone in the clan is in a panic. I have to give them an explanation …"
Kasyapa lifted his eyelids slightly and looked at Kong Se. Kong Se's heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly lowered his head to show his respect. Kasyapa sighed in his heart. This Kong Se had no sense of responsibility at all. He could not do anything big. However, he was the Joyful Clan Master after all. His status was also quite important. He could not be too tough.
He smiled and comforted, "I'll definitely get the Wisdom King's Devil-Subduing Pestle back for you. You don't have to worry about anything else. "
Kong Se had no choice but to nod in agreement. After bowing, he hurriedly circulated his mana and left the meditation room.
Kasyapa pondered for a while and said loudly, "Summon Heavenly Yaksha to see me."
Naturally, there were disciples outside to pass the order. Not long after, a bald man with a ferocious-looking face walked into the meditation room. He was unusually tall. Standing in the meditation room, his head was almost touching the ceiling.
"Venerable One." Heavenly Yaksha put his palms together and bowed solemnly. Although his face was ferocious and he looked unusually fierce and warlike. When he put his palms together and bowed, there was a sense of tranquility and peace. He was like an eminent Buddhist monk who had been cultivating for a long time.
Kasyapa nodded approvingly, "Your cultivation has improved again during this period of time. Very good."
"It's all thanks to Venerable One's guidance." Heavenly Yaksha thanked him sincerely. He was not good with words. His words of gratitude were very simple, but there was a sense of sincerity that came from his bones. People couldn't help but believe him when they heard it.
Kasyapa was also very pleased. Among the demi-gods and demi-gods, the dragons were the strongest, Shura the most warlike, and Yaksha the most ferocious. Heavenly Yaksha could comprehend the Dharma and get rid of his ferocious nature. He had already comprehended the true meaning of Dharma. Such cultivation and wisdom were really amazing.
But now was not the time to talk about this. He turned back to the topic, "How is Gandharva doing?"
"She is with Goku. They are going to Mount Maha together."
Heavenly Yaksha replied respectfully.
"What's going on with Bai Xiang?" Kasyapa asked.
"Gandharva said this. At that time, Goku killed a true disciple of the Joyous Clan. Bai Xiang came over with the Wisdom King Exorcism Pestle. As soon as the two of them fought, Bai Xiang was killed. "
Heavenly Yaksha didn't dare to hide anything. He truthfully relayed Gandharva's words, "She said that Goku's cultivation was unfathomable. He broke the Wisdom King Exorcism Pestle with one sword intent and killed Bai Xiang. This was clearly the cultivation of a Saint. However, all of Goku's sword intent was fierce and fierce. There was no trace of Buddhist martial arts. "
"Saint?"
Kasyapa pondered. He was not surprised by this result. The other party dared to cross the sea and come to the West alone. He must have the confidence. However, there was also a difference between Saint.
Although Bai Xiang was very weak, the Wisdom King Exorcism Pestle was a powerful Buddhist artifact. To be able to kill Bai Xiang, who possessed the Wisdom King Demon Subduing Pestle, with a single sword intent, the other party's cultivation was terrifyingly high.
Kasyapa thought that even if he personally attacked, he wouldn't dare to say that he could easily kill Bai Xiang. Of course, martial arts involved many aspects. Spirit, fighting spirit, martial arts cultivation method, vitality, surrounding environment, emotions, and so on. Any expert would face a limit of power.
There wouldn't be much of a difference between the group of experts who stood at the peak of the Sage level. No one dared to say that they were invincible.
In the West Buddha State, Kasyapa's power could be multiplied several times. No matter how strong Goku was, it was impossible for him to be his opponent. What's more, there were many experts in the West Buddha State.
A mere Saint wouldn't be a disaster.
Kasyapa just didn't want to act so quickly. He was very curious about Goku and why he came all the way to the West Buddha State. If possible, Kasyapa wanted to have a good talk with Goku.
Although there was a huge conflict between the Eastern and Western Buddhists, it was not impossible to reconcile. During the reincarnation of the era, the demon race invaded and the human race was in a difficult situation. At this time, it was necessary to unite all the forces that could be united.
Of course, the unity Kasyapa spoke of was unifying the Eastern Buddhists. A mere branch didn't have the qualifications to be on equal footing with the main altar. However, some of the Eastern Buddhists didn't give up and tried to rope them in.
Kasyapa's idea was good, but the other elders had a different opinion. So, this matter couldn't be known to others for the time being. He pondered for a moment and said, "Since the other party took the bait, let's arrange for the demons on Mount Mahākāśyapa to take action. These guys are unruly, and Goku is very arrogant. Let them kill to their heart's content first. Gandharva will follow Goku and contact him if anything happens. "
Heavenly Yaksha said with some difficulty, "The power of the demons on Mount Mahākāśyapa has increased greatly these years. There might be a Saint hidden there. What if something unexpected happens? "
No one could say for sure what would happen in a battle. Although Goku was quite powerful, Mount Mahākāśyapa was the lair of the demons. The demons had always been cruel and warlike. If they killed Gao Zhengyang, then their efforts would be wasted.
"He is a Saint after all. He won't be so useless."
Kasyapa said, "The demons have been conserving their strength these years. I don't know what they are up to. Let Goku try. Killing two birds with one stone. "
Heavenly Yaksha thought for a moment and said, "Gandharva is in danger alone. Why don't we get Kinnara to help her?"
"That's fine."
Kasyapa said, "The Dharma Conference will be in a while. This matter has to be resolved before the conference."
The Dharma Conference was a grand Buddhist ceremony that was held once every 60 years. Not only would the 10 sects participate, but the various powerhouses of West Buddha would also be invited.
At that time, all the powerhouses of the world would gather together and compete in martial arts.
The Dharma Conference was a demonstration of the Buddhists' strength and a test of the various powerhouses. Thirdly, it was to appease the various factions. Every conference would decide the situation of West Buddha for the next 60 years.
The cycle of eras, the world changed. The Dharma Conference became extremely important. Compared to the Dharma Conference, Goku was not so important.
Kasyapa did not want any accidents to happen. He had to catch Goku before the Dharma Conference. Of course, how to do it would depend on his subordinates to worry about it.
Heavenly Yaksha understood what Kasyapa meant. He bowed and left to arrange the relevant matters.
In fact, placing Gandharva next to Goku was also a bit of luck. But with Gandharva, he could grasp Goku's whereabouts and guide him accordingly. What happened next would be easy.
Heavenly Yaksha went to Gandharva's Heavenly Incense Hall and lit the Ten Thousand Miles Incense in the exquisite incense burner. He contacted Gandharva through various kinds of fragrances.
Gandharva could use different combinations of fragrances to completely transmit all kinds of information and communicate with others. She could even use spells and martial arts through the fragrances. The fragrances changed in her hands. It was extremely magical.
Even among the experts of the Buddhist sects, very few people knew about this divine ability of Gandharva. Goku was an outsider, so it was even more impossible for him to see through Gandharva's secrets.
After Heavenly Yaksha lit the Ten Thousand Miles Incense, he quickly established contact with Gandharva in the distance. Then he told her about Kasyapa's arrangements. The two communicated about the details of the plan, and then cut off the contact between the two sides.
Gandharva communicated with the fragrance over a long distance, and she had to hide it from Gao Zhengyang, so she was also tired. The maroon eyes behind the veil also couldn't help but feel a little tired.
"You seem to be very tired?" Gao Zhengyang asked with concern.
Gandharva and Gao Zhengyang looked at each other deeply, and her heart tightened. But she did not dare to avoid it. She forced a smile and said, "The noon sun is a little too strong, so I'm a little tired."
"Your body is too weak. You have to pay attention to rest."
Gao Zhengyang said with a faint smile, "Besides, you have too many things on your mind. You think too much … "
Gandharva forced a smile. She also knew that Gao Zhengyang was a little suspicious of her. But Gao Zhengyang relied on his identity and would not interrogate her. She pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Master, I do have something to hide from you. But I also have my own difficulties. "
Gao Zhengyang laughed and waved his hand, "If you don't want to say it, you don't have to say it. According to Buddhism, it is fate that brought us together. "
Gandharva put her palms together and said, "I still have to thank Master for saving me and sending me thousands of miles away. I'm really grateful. "
"I have nothing to do, and accompanying you won't delay your journey."
Gao Zhengyang said, "You don't have to call me master. I'm actually not a monk. Hahaha …"
Gandharva's eyes widened. This time, she was really a little surprised. Gao Zhengyang was indeed not like a monk. He had no taboos, and he would not abide by any kind of Buddhist precepts, let alone do all kinds of homework.
The two words that Buddhism's ultimate requirement of precepts and stability could not be seen in him. But he was wearing a monk's robe and shoes, and his name was also a Buddhist name. It didn't make sense to say that he was not a monk.
Gao Zhengyang said, "I'm a fake monk. Of course, my master is a real monk. It's just that I don't like the Buddhist rules, so I didn't become a monk. However, I have to inherit the title of Master, so I have a Buddhist name. Haha … "
Although it was a little ridiculous, Gandharva felt that Goku was not lying.
Gao Zhengyang said, "My name is Gao Zhengyang."
"Mr. Gao." Gandharva put her palms together again and called out softly. Her voice was soft and had a bit of an exotic tone, which was quite comfortable to listen to.
Gao Zhengyang nodded. "That sounds much more comfortable." He complained, "Being called Master every day, I always feel that my fists itch and want to hit someone."
Gandharva didn't know how to respond. She was silent for a while and said, "Mr. Gao, I have to pick up my sister first. Can we go to Baita City first?"
"Yes, I can take you wherever you want to go."
Gao Zhengyang smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, I'm particularly interested in you. Hahaha! "
Gandharva lowered her head slightly, her bright eyes showing a touch of shyness. Her flirtatious look added a few more points of charm to her.
Gao Zhengyang squinted at this woman, and he was even more interested in her. The other party actually came up with another sister. He was really curious. What kind of script did this group of people arrange? Could it be sisters serving one husband?
Thinking of the erotic parts, his smile became more ambiguous and rippling. In fact, he had already vaguely guessed the other party's identity. Although he was not a real monk, he was still the Sect Master of Heart Buddha Sect. How could he not know the famous Eight Divisions of the Heavenly Dragon in Buddhism?
In the Battle of Lingtai Mountain, he first killed Garuda and seized his Golden Winged Sword Wings. Then he killed Asura Rahu in the Asura World.
Later on, thinking about it, these two were clearly Asura and Garuda of the Eight Divisions of the Heavenly Dragon. The two of them even had the same title.
Gao Zhengyang had the power of three saints, so he was extremely relaxed. If others liked to play games, he would play with them. In any case, he would definitely not be the one crying in the end.
The two of them rode for four days, and on the fifth day, they finally reached Baita City.
As the name suggested, there were dozens of tall white towers in Baita City. Looking from afar, the white towers were like a forest, quite imposing. The other buildings in Baita City were also painted white. It was unusually clean and tidy.
When Gao Zhengyang and Gandharva entered the city, they even paid two copper coins. Someone specially cleaned the dust and cleaned their shoes. Only then did they enter the city.
