After the martial arts competition, Shenguan Temple lost to Ming Lun Temple, who was originally ranked second. Thus, Ming Lun Temple fell to fifth place.
After the competition, Ming Lun Temple had another chance to challenge the third and fourth places other than second place. As for first place, Jiaxiu Temple, they had to be ranked second.
To put it bluntly, Ming Lun Temple's martial arts competition ended in a complete defeat. Even if they could challenge third place, they could only stop there.
If they wanted to redeem themselves, they would have to wait for the next Shixin Dharma Meeting in a thousand years. However, at that time, Yi Tian and Abbot Liao Chen might not be at Shenguan Temple.
Monk Kong Yun suppressed the anger in his heart and said in a deep voice, "Okay, next, Ming Lun Temple, ranked fifth, will challenge. According to the rules, you can't challenge first place or the sect that was just replaced." He gritted his teeth as he said this, but he couldn't lose his temper.
At this time, the other host, Liao Yuan, stood up and asked, "Fellow Taoist Kong Xing used up a lot of spirit power. Do you need to rest and recover your spirit power before challenging?"
"No need. Ming Lun Temple has more than one master. You can send another Shidi." Kong Yun lost, but he didn't want to lose. At this time, he could only force himself to go against Liao Yuan. However, everyone could hear that he seemed to be blaming Kong Xing in his words, so he directly replaced Kong Xing with someone else.
After saying that, a tall monk stood up beside him and said something to the crowd. He walked to the center of the platform and stared at Yi Tian for a long time with eyes full of fighting spirit before turning his head away.
At this time, Yi Tian's face was relaxed and he looked lazy. After all, no one would challenge him after he fought. On the other hand, Liao Chen sat in front of him like an old monk. It was as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.
Yi Tian secretly admired Liaochen's mental fortitude. He secretly moved his lips and asked, "Brother Liaochen, I've done what I promised you. The next part of the theory test will depend on you."
Liao Chen opened his eyes and replied with a smile, "Junior Brother Yi, don't worry. Monks don't lie. This time, you won second place and received a lotus petal. I promised to give you the lotus seed as well. Even if I can't win first place in the debate, I can ask Senior Brother Liao for a moment. "
Yi Tian didn't know Liao Chen had such a trick up his sleeve. Liao Chen might not be able to win first place in the paper exam, but if he had something to do with Liao Yuan of Jiu Temple, the lotus seed seed would greatly increase his chances.
To put it bluntly, as long as Jiaxiu Temple besieged Ming Lun Temple, it was almost certain that they would succeed.
Thinking of this, Yi Tian smiled. He then sat cross-legged on his seat and closed his eyes to rest. Whatever happened next had nothing to do with him. No matter how they fought in the sky, they would not be able to shake Shenguan Temple's position.
On the contrary, the battle just now had benefited him a lot. The Corona God Art he used earlier was naturally the result of his recent hard work. Although he wasn't familiar with it, it was much better than before. Under Liao Chen's guidance, he finally understood the true use of the Corona.
The Dharma Idol was also quite interesting. When he cultivated the Corona to a certain level, he began to cultivate the Dharma Idol by referring to the secret techniques recorded in the Great Sun Sutra.
Originally, he thought he could condense the Fire God or Thunder God Dharma Idol according to his attributes. But later, he found out that it was the Asura True Body. He had no choice but to do so.
Fortunately, the Asura Dharma Idol could use the secret techniques of Buddhism. The move he used just now was a test of the Great Sun Sutra's Formless Finger. He originally wanted to cultivate the most powerful Flower-Pinching Finger, but time was limited. He had to choose the easiest move.
Although he didn't cultivate the Formless Finger to a small success, the essence of it inspired him. So, when he used the power of the Great Sun Sutra, he used his fist instead of his finger. He didn't expect it to be so powerful that it could push Kong Xing back.
To be honest, he used all his strength just now. If he stopped half a beat later, he would have exposed his true strength. Fortunately, Kong Xing was stunned by his move and had no choice but to bow his head and admit defeat, putting an end to this matter.
Now, Yi Tian was full of curiosity about the Flower-Pinching Finger. With the Great Sun Sutra in his hands, he could naturally learn this power. However, time was limited and he couldn't comprehend the essence of the Flower-Pinching Finger. Taking advantage of the fact that everyone's attention was elsewhere, Yi Tian said goodbye to Liuchen and quickly entered a meditative state.
It seemed like he was sitting cross-legged and meditating, but he was actually in a meditative state. In his mind, he was verifying the three moves of the Flower-Pinching Finger.
After verifying it, he found that the three moves of the Flower-Pinching Finger seemed simple, but there were thousands of changes in it. It was definitely not something that could be mastered in a day. Fortunately, there was no need to practice this power in his mind. He only needed to use his spiritual will to condense it.
In fact, after using the Corona Dharma Idol, the Dharma Idol only needed the support of his spiritual will to use the Flower-Pinching Finger.
What they didn't know was that after Yi Tian entered this meditative state, the Corona behind his head slowly appeared and golden light surrounded his body. It was impossible to keep a low profile in the banquet.
Liuchen, who was sitting in front, was the first to notice this. He waved his hand and a golden halo appeared to protect Yi Tian. Then, his lips gently moved a few times as he secretly transmitted a few words to Le Yuan, who was sitting on top. Soon, three monks from Jiaxiu Temple slowly stood up and walked to Yi Tian's side. They sat cross-legged on his left, right, and back.
This action was undoubtedly to protect Yi Tian, who was in the midst of his epiphany. The other monks, especially those from Tantra, looked on with envy. This kind of epiphany required luck. Some people had never encountered it even once in their lives, so they could only stare at it.
After an unknown amount of time, Yi Tian slowly opened his eyes after going through the three moves of the Flower-Pinching Finger in his sea of consciousness. He suddenly realized that there were much fewer people present than before. There was a monk sitting cross-legged in front and behind him. In front of him was his senior apprentice-brother Liuchen. He slowly stood up, turned around and said, "Congratulations, junior apprentice-brother. You will definitely benefit greatly from this epiphany. Your future achievements will be limitless."
"Senior apprentice-brother Liuchen, I'm sorry to have troubled you." Yi Tian hurriedly replied, "I don't know what stage the Enlightenment Dharma Assembly is at."
Liuchen smiled and said, "The Dharma Assembly ended an hour ago. Second apprentice-brother, you have been meditating for three days."
"What's the result?" Yi Tian was shocked. He didn't expect that he would completely miss the debate stage while meditating.
Liuchen took out a jade box and handed it over, saying, "Fortunately, I didn't disappoint you."
Yi Tian took the jade box and opened it. He found that there was a five-colored lotus petal and a lotus seed.
