According to the Buddhist scriptures, people have five desires.
It means that everyone has eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and body, and these five external sensory organs produce five desires: color, smell, smell, taste, and touch.
All human desires are produced by these five desires, and if these five desires are too strong, they will violate one of the great Buddhist precepts, greed!
Greed for wealth, greed for beauty, greed for music, greed for power, greed for food … These are all rejected and abhorred by orthodox Buddhists!
And the three great poisons of Buddhism are greed, anger, and obsession!
Of course, Wang Ruizhou, a half-baked fake monk, does not understand these things at all. Even if he does, he probably only wishes for these three poisons to be more poisonous. If I don't go to hell, who will? Greed, anger, and obsession, come, come and torture me!
He bet ten celestial jades on Wu Yong and actually won! One to five, ten became fifty. Wang Ruizhou hated himself for not having a hundred thousand, then it became five hundred thousand!
After leaving the Get Rich Casino, Wang Ruizhou kept asking Lin Mingzhi why he could see that Wu Yong would win so early on. If he could learn from his master, he could mingle in the casino and not have to worry about food and drink!
"Master, how did you see that Wu Yong would win?"
"Use your heart to feel, don't let the five senses blind your mind. In Buddhist matters, you must seek peace of mind. When your mind is calm, you can see a lot of things that you can't normally see."
Although his master gave him an answer, Wang Ruizhou still calmed his heart and closed his eyes. But it was still pitch black.
"Master, why can't I see anything, but you can?"
"That's because you didn't play the huqin enough!"
Wang Ruizhou finally understood that he couldn't get rich because he didn't play the huqin enough. Say so earlier!
"Then, Master, where should we go to play the huqin now?" Wang Ruizhou was originally a monk, then became an evil monk, but now he was more dedicated than a professional musician.
But this time, Lin Mingzhi didn't want him to play the huqin, and said, "I've gotten what I asked for, let's go to Master Zhou Jiajun's Tribulation Transcendence Ceremony!"
"Okay!"
As one of the three Masters of Mani Sect, Lin Mingzhi naturally didn't need an invitation to go. But at this moment, another person also received an invitation.
Cheng Yipeng had a smile on his face, as if the person who had just died in the arena was someone unrelated to him. In this short period of time, he had already thought it through.
Since Wang Yue was dead, then let him die. Let history turn over this page forever!
"Oh, Master Ye, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet Master Ye here!"
"Yes, yes, I didn't expect to meet Master Cheng."
Seeing Cheng Yipeng and Ye Kong greet each other so passionately, the people behind felt a chill run down their spines. He thought to himself, What a coincidence. Didn't you guys come here together? You almost got into a fight at the bottom level of the ship!
But at this time, the two of them had selectively forgotten about the past. After all, the Mani Sect wasn't willing to provoke the Iron Prison Mountain now, and it wasn't the right time for Ye Kong to destroy the Mani Sect.
"Master, I also, I Master, I, I, I have," Master, said.
Ye Kong wondered if this kid wanted the Red Thread Spear and Wang Yue's belongings back. He smiled and said, "Master Cheng, please speak your mind. If I can promise you, I will."
Cheng Yipeng sneered, if I ask you for the Red Thread Spear, you probably won't agree. However, he still had a warm expression on his face, saying, "Actually, it's regarding our Great Master Zhou Jiajun's immortal tribulation in two days. I originally sent the invitation to Iron Prison Mountain, but I didn't receive a reply. Now that I just happened to see Lord Prison Codex, I hope that you won't decline."
"Oh, this, of course, of course." Ye Kong thought, I want to see how Zhou Jiajun will fail his Immortal Tribulation.
Cheng Yipeng smiled and left. Ye Kong and the rest bid farewell to Immortal Monarch Li Yao and sent Hong Mengni off before flying back to Mani Sect's main city.
As they neared the main city, they saw a huge building outside the city from afar. It was a Buddhist pagoda, thirteen stories high. The pagoda's surface was painted gold, made of an unknown material.
At the top of the pagoda was a round platform, about ten meters wide. There were a few protrusions around the platform, like the eye of a formation, but no formation could be seen.
At the bottom of the tower was a large area of jade floor. When the sun shone on it, it would give off a bright halo. At this moment, there were countless yellow-clothed monks bustling about. They moved tables and chairs, arranged them neatly, and decorated the Buddha statues. They were extremely busy.
Ye Kong said, "This is where Zhou Jiajun's Immortal Tribulation is."
Kuang Peng said, "This Mani Sect is perverse and evil. Just as Master Lin Mingzhi said, Buddha will not protect him. He will fail!"
"I don't really believe in Buddha's protection. If Buddha doesn't protect the evil monk, why does Mani Sect have the Buddhist Seal of Annihilation?" Wu Yong retorted, then said, "I heard that immortals who have no hope of passing the Immortal Tribulation will find a remote and uninhabited planet to undergo the Immortal Tribulation. Even if they fail, they won't laugh about it, and they won't attract enemies because of the drop in their cultivation level."
"You mean that Zhou Jiajun is very confident of passing the Immortal Tribulation, so he invited guests from all over?" Ye Kong nodded, thinking that this was normal. If he was not confident, wouldn't he be slapping himself in the face if he failed in front of so many people?
However, Kuang Peng could not understand. "If Zhou Jiajun is very confident in passing the Immortal Tribulation, why is Master Lin Mingzhi so sure that he will fail?"
Ye Kong did not say a word in his heart. What he wanted to say was, could it be that Lin Mingzhi would cause trouble?
Usually, when it came to passing the Immortal Tribulation or ascension, no one would cause trouble. No matter how great the hatred was, it would not be like this. It was not that immortals were virtuous. Immortals had done many immoral things such as breaking into widows and digging up corpses.
The reason why they did not destroy other people's Immortal Tribulation was because it would bring disaster upon themselves. Whether it was Mortal Tribulation, Immortal Tribulation, or God Tribulation, they all had a certain range. If someone entered during the Immortal Tribulation, the Tribulation Cloud would think that someone else was undergoing the Immortal Tribulation, and its power would double. The person who entered by mistake would not be spared.
Although there was hatred, it was not wise to throw oneself into it.
As the group walked into the city, Ye Kong suddenly remembered that he had asked the sugar figurine old official to make a knife. At that time, he said five days and forgot about it.
Thinking of this, Ye Kong immediately got the prison guards to go back and contact the Iron Prison Mountain to have them stop investigating Wang Yue and start investigating Ji Xiaolou.
As for Ye Kong, he brought Wu Yong and Kuang Peng through the streets and alleys to find Zhuang Mingzhi.
When they arrived at Zhuang Mingzhi's place, they were surprised to see an acquaintance again.
Meanwhile, in the temple on the other side of the main city, Cheng Yipeng was telling Zhou Jiajun what had happened.
"Ye Kong, you brat! I swear to kill you! "Zhou Jiajun was enraged when he heard Wang Yue's story. Wang Yue was his eldest disciple, and his cultivation had improved very quickly. Zhou Jiajun had always liked him very much, and he had hoped that Wang Yue would inherit his mantle in the future. Usually, he had raised him like a son, but he had never thought that he would be killed. How could he not be angry?
"Please calm down, Grand Master. I think it's best to tolerate this matter for now. I've already pretended to be on good terms with Ye Kong and even invited him to attend your Tribulation Transcendence Ceremony," Cheng Yipeng said nervously. He did not know if he had done the right thing.
Fortunately, Zhou Jiajun heaved a sigh of relief before he nodded and said, "You did a good job. Ye Kong has a Gold Sinful Celestial Chain that can capture anyone below an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial, including me. Therefore, it's better for me to focus on transcending this Minor Celestial Tribulation … Hmph! Just you wait and see, Ye Kong, when I become a Celestial Duke! I won't let Wang Yue die in vain! "
Although Ye Kong was the Iron Prison Mountain's Prison Code and Zhou Jiajun didn't dare to kill him on the surface, if Zhou Jiajun reached the Immortal Monarch Realm and his cultivation increased greatly, he could kill him without anyone knowing.
Cheng Yipeng said through gritted teeth, "Also, there's the Red Thread Spear from Mani Sect!" He did not even have the chance to possess the grade-nine Celestial Weapon. He had been coveting it for a long time. Who knew Wang Yue would lose it? How infuriating!
Zhou Jiajun nodded and said, "Don't worry. I'll let you use the Red Thread Spear once I get it back."
Cheng Yipeng felt even more like spitting blood in his heart when he heard this. At that time, there were so many people present that saw the Red Thread Spear being taken away by Wu Yong. If he assassinated Ye Kong and took out the Red Thread Spear to use … Wouldn't that be announcing that he was the murderer? Wouldn't that be courting death?
Of course, Cheng Yipeng did not dare go against Zhou Jiajun, and he bowed and said, "Amitabha. Thank you, Grand Master." After he thanked Chen Xi, he asked again. "The key is that Grand Master is able to safely transcend the Celestial Tribulation. I wonder how Grand Master's preparations are?"
Zhou Jiajun laughed loudly when he heard this question. "Don't worry. I've studied the Immortal Tribulation since long ago. See that Buddha's Pagoda outside the city? Let me tell you, that isn't just for me to stand higher! Moreover, with the book page that contained the energy of the Heavenly Tribulation that my disciple bought for me, it's even more secure. It can be said to be foolproof. "
Cheng Yipeng said, "Grand Master already possesses the energy of the Heavenly Tribulation? Congratulations, Grand Master, for your strength increasing once again. "
But Zhou Jiajun shook his head instead and said, "Actually, all of you are wrong. That book page isn't the real 100,000 Heavenly Dao Scripture!"
Zhou Jiajun hadn't finished speaking when Cheng Yipeng said in shock, "Could it be that the book page that Wang Yue spent a huge sum of money to buy is actually a fake?"
"That's not it either." Zhou Jiajun waved his hand and said, "Actually, there are two versions of the 100,000 Heavenly Dao Scripture. The 100,000 Heavenly Dao Scripture written by the real ancient almighty figure from the Immortal Dimension, Bai Xiaosheng, has been lost since long ago. Some say that it was kept by the Immortal Lords of the past, some say that the scripture has already gained intelligence, and some say that the people of the Immortal Dimension have taken a fancy to that scripture and brought it to the Immortal Dimension. All in all, the real 100,000 Heavenly Dao Scripture has been lost. Most importantly, the real 100,000 Heavenly Dao Scripture doesn't have a cultivation method."
"Whereas those that do have a cultivation method were created by the later generations according to the description of the 100,000 Heavenly Dao Scripture and combined with it. So, it should be said that the fake version is even more effective to me. But my current situation isn't suitable to cultivate the energy of the Heavenly Tribulation, and time doesn't allow it. The reason I said that this item is very useful to me is because the material used to create this book page is a precious material of heaven and earth that have gone extinct since long ago. Not only is it incomparably tough, but it's also capable of absorbing attacks against Immortal Sense! "
Cheng Yipeng nodded and said, "So that's how it is. Grand Master has made double preparations, so it's absolutely foolproof."
