As the two brothers conversed in front, Yu Luocha followed them from a distance. Her monk robes looked a little comical, and the three of them were dressed in white monk robes.
Yu Luocha was both excited and nervous to see the legendary Nameless Gate's treasure. She hoped to see it, but was also afraid that Miao Yi would set a trap for her.
In short, she didn't trust Miao Yi at all. Her gaze fell on Ba Jie's back. It didn't matter if she hated Ba Jie for being slapped. Right now, the only sense of security she had was Ba Jie alone.
The canyon didn't look too far away, but it didn't take long for them to reach it. After walking for more than four hours, they finally arrived at the canyon.
The canyon was wide and over a hundred feet deep. Standing at the edge of the canyon was like standing on the edge of a cliff. The surroundings were filled with wild grass and unknown wildflowers. The inside of the canyon was a beautiful sight, like a valley of flowers. They could smell the fragrance of the wind blowing up from below.
Standing on top of the cliff, Ba Jie pointed to the opposite cliff and said, "That's it."
Miao Yi and Yu Luocha, who was standing a little further away, looked over. It was easy to tell that a strange, pitch-black temple was embedded into the cliff. Two people could be seen sitting cross-legged outside the temple. Miao Yi guessed that they were Grandmaster Qi Jie and Blood Demon.
"This …" Yu Luocha suddenly murmured. When she saw this strange temple, she seemed to recall something. She recalled a certain sealed temple that the three-tailed demon fox from the Heavenly Court had described. Why did it feel so similar to this temple? The canyon was also embedded into the cliff, and the environment here made it impossible to control transcendence energy.
In that instant, she seemed to have understood something.
Miao Yi and Ba Jie turned to look and saw Yu Luocha's pale face, a look of fear on her face.
Ba Jie smiled and asked, "Yu Luocha, what's wrong?"
Yu Luocha abruptly turned to look at him. Her breathing was a little ragged as she asked, "May I know your dharma name, Grandmaster?"
Miao Yi found it funny. 'You're only asking this now?'
Ba Jie clasped his hands and said, "My dharma name is Ba Jie!"
"You're that handsome monk …" Yu Luocha's eyes widened. She quickly turned to look at the strange temple and exclaimed, "This is where the demonic monk, Nan Bo, was sealed?"
Miao Yi mocked, "I already told you that there are no Nameless School treasures here. I already told you that this is where the demonic monk, Nan Bo, is sealed. But you don't believe me, and you think I'm lying to you. From the looks of it, you should also know about the Three-tailed Fox Spirit. Logically speaking, once you arrived on this planet and sensed the abnormality here, you should have guessed it. Hehe, even I find it strange. Before coming here, you even suspected that this was the demonic monk Nan Bo's sealing grounds. Why do you refuse to believe me when you've personally experienced the restriction of your magic power? It seems like you have a deep misunderstanding of me. You refuse to believe my words no matter what. What a joke! "
"Sigh!" Ba Jie shook his head and sighed. "As the saying goes, one's own cleverness may lead to his own downfall. It's just like this!"
"You two …" Yu Luocha gritted her teeth. Her face was pale. She wasn't just being stubborn because she didn't believe Miao Yi's words. She didn't believe that Miao Yi could possibly know where the demonic monk, Nan Bo, was sealed. She didn't believe that Miao Yi would be able to go to such a place. After arriving on this planet, she hadn't sensed the Sanskrit Chant that the Three-tailed Fox Spirit had mentioned either.
More importantly, it was due to her greed. When faced with a choice, there were two ways a person could choose. The first was to eliminate all potential dangers and look for benefits. The other was to eliminate all potential dangers and look for hidden dangers. The latter was a form of precaution, while the former was more akin to a gambling addict. Once a person became greedy and wanted to take advantage of the situation, it was very easy for them to overlook the dangers and focus only on the benefits.
"Your transcendence energy is being restricted as well!" Yu Luocha suddenly stared at Ba Jie and exclaimed.
Ba Jie smiled faintly, and his smile gradually turned pure and holy. Suddenly, he swept his sleeves across the ground, and a few small wildflowers in front of him began bearing fruit at a visible speed. Then, with another sweep of his sleeves, a few new flower buds suddenly sprouted from the fallen fruits, and they quickly bloomed into new little wildflowers. It was a miraculous sight.
Yu Luocha's lips went dry as she watched. Ba Jie chuckled and said, "When this humble monk first arrived, his transcendence energy was indeed restricted. However, I later found a way to circumvent the restrictions."
Miao Yi was secretly amused. 'This Second Brother is acting all mysterious and spouting nonsense again.'
Yu Luocha said, "This is only the result of your profound Buddhist teachings."
Ba Jie said, "You don't need to use your transcendence energy to show me! Your granny. This is the first time someone has ever told me that my Buddhist teachings are profound. Thank you for the compliment! "With a flick of his sleeves, he gave Miao Yi a look that said, 'Believe it or not, it's up to you.'
Yu Luocha's gaze flickered anxiously. Miao Yi wasn't sure if she believed him or not.
Miao Yi looked around and said, "The environment here seems to be better than what the rumors say."
Ba Jie chuckled and said, "That's because you don't know what the environment was like when I first arrived here. Both the inside and outside of the gorge was a wasteland. A sinister wind blew in the gorge, and the sky was shrouded in gloomy clouds. It was a frightening sight. Countless skeletons were buried under the fresh flowers in this gorge. It was only after that old demon was suppressed that the environment here gradually improved. "
Speaking of skeletons, Miao Yi suddenly remembered something and asked, "Did the people who were trapped here come from the outside?"
Ba Jie said, "Of course. They couldn't have been born like this, could they?"
Miao Yi asked curiously, "These people's transcendence energy was restricted. The moment they entered this planet, they would face a high fall. How did they manage to survive? Even if they fell into the water's surface, they would still be smashed to death, right? "
Ba Jie said, "The person who set up this formation was probably taking precautions against this. They were worried that someone would let the old demon out. That's why the situation you're talking about, Big Brother. Basically, everyone who enters this place will fall to their deaths. However, the old demon's fearsomeness seems to have exceeded the imagination of the person who set up the formation. Even though the old demon has lost his transcendence energy, he can still control humans and all kinds of birds and beasts. Some people were saved by large birds when they fell. But when Ba Jie and I fell, it was nighttime, and we only managed to survive with the help of countless bats. Of course, not everyone could be saved in time. Many of them fell to their deaths on the spot. Those who survived were all bewitched by the old demon's deadly Sanskrit Chant and brought to this gorge under his control. "
'So that's how it is! ' Miao Yi nodded and shot a glance at Yu Luocha. He thought they would all be like Yu Luocha, stripping off their clothes and flying away. But now, it seemed like it wasn't easy for this woman to survive until now. She was able to survive even falling from the sky. She really wasn't destined to die!
Ba Jie suddenly stared at the strange temple and sighed. "This old demon is truly too sinister. This humble monk is a little worried. I'm worried that this old demon will break free sooner or later. We can't possibly guard him forever, can we? Once he breaks free, will he come looking for me to settle the score?"
Miao Yi said, "Then we'll just kill him!"
Yu Luocha scoffed, "Wishful thinking. Do I need you to tell me that I can kill him? If he could, the Divine Lord of Six Paths would have done so long ago. Why would he need to trap him here? The demonic monk Nan Bo's cultivation had already reached the realm of immortality when he was still alive. Not just anyone can destroy the divine soul of someone who has reached the realm of divine soul. Even if the forces of the Western Paradise and the Celestial Court find this place, they can only continue trapping him here to prevent him from escaping. "
Miao Yi recalled the Dragon Deity of the Desolate Wastelands and shook his head, "I don't believe there's anything in this world that can't be killed."
Yu Luocha said, "It's not that there aren't people who can destroy his divine soul. The divine soul has already transcended beyond the three realms and is no longer part of the five elements. Legend has it that Master White's cultivation art surpassed the three realms and the five elements. That's why he was able to destroy a divine soul. Unfortunately, Master White … There's another legend that says that the Nameless Gate contains boundless Buddhist teachings. Once cultivated, one can encompass all living beings and even destroy the demonic monk Nan Bo."
"Boundless Buddhist teachings?" Miao Yi's mind flashed through the various scenes of the Nameless Gate's treasury. He calmly said, "Could it be the Nameless Gate's treasury that you're looking for?"
Yu Luocha said, "And this is what you brought me here to see." She finally believed that there was no such thing as a treasury. Otherwise, she wouldn't have told him about it.
Miao Yi wasn't sure if Master White's cultivation art could destroy the demonic monk Nan Bo's divine soul. After all, even Master White's master had died at the hands of the demonic monk Nan Bo. He furrowed his brows and said, "Other than these two legendary methods, is there no other way?"
"There is!" Yu Luocha said confidently, "Unless a Divine Soul Realm expert appears and can suppress the demonic monk Nan Bo's divine soul in terms of divine soul cultivation, only then can they use their supreme divine might to forcefully destroy his divine soul. Otherwise, ordinary people will never be able to destroy his divine soul. Even if you manage to destroy him, he will still be able to come back from the underworld. However, the demonic monk Nan Bo has already killed off all the Divine Soul Realm experts in this world. Who knows how long it will take for someone who can threaten his divine soul to appear again. "
"Divine soul …" Miao Yi was silent for a moment. Then, he turned his gaze towards the strange temple embedded in the cliff and said to Ba Jie, "Let's go. Take me there to take a look."
Ba Jie nodded, then turned to Yu Luocha and asked, "Do you want to take a look?"
A hint of fear flashed across Yu Luocha's eyes as she looked at the strange temple. However, when she thought about how the people inside the temple had already been subdued, and how these people weren't afraid, what did she have to be afraid of? She raised her head and puffed out her chest as she said, "Even though I won't have the chance to see the demonic monk Nan Bo himself, since I'm already here, I would like to see what the demonic monk's divine soul, who once dominated the universe, looks like."
The three of them didn't immediately jump down. Instead, they walked along the edge of the cliff until they reached the end of the canyon before turning down.
Because of this, Yu Luocha's gaze fell on Ba Jie as she followed behind them. Her eyebrows twitched ever so slightly, but her expression didn't change at all.
Amidst the wild grass and blooming flowers, a strange path appeared. It was clearly made by someone who frequented this place. The three of them walked along the winding path until they finally arrived at the bottom of the temple. Then, they climbed up the stairs dug out from the cliff.
Seeing the temple embedded in the cliff slowly appear at the end of the stairs, Miao Yi and Yu Luocha began to feel a little nervous. The reputation of the demonic monk Nan Bo was simply too great. It was one thing for those who didn't know about him, but who would dare to say that they didn't feel a little pressured after knowing the demonic monk's past? Even Master Qing and the Buddhist Lord wouldn't dare to say such a thing.
