" I'm awake, I'm awake!" Ping Qing said happily.
Ping Jian rubbed Cang Yun's head and said,"Cang Yun, did you eat something bad?”
"Fourth Senior Brother, what does this have to do with having a stomachache?" Zhu Xue glanced at Ping Jian.”
"This is a big deal."
"What relationship?"
"This is... Cang Yun, are you alright?" Ping Jian's forehead was sweating as he asked Cang Yun.
It wasn't a dream. Judging from the words and expressions of the people in front of him, they should be real senior brothers. Cang Yun didn't know if what he had experienced was real or fake and didn't want to say much. He only said that he was fine and that he was just too tired.
Su Murong and the others did not suspect anything. How could they know what Cang Yun had experienced? Moreover, Cang Yun's physique was not as good as the others, so it was normal for him to sleep deeply after being tired.
"Fifth Junior Brother, since you're fine, we need to continue moving forward," Su Murong said. I wonder where the road ahead is."
"There's a tunnel entrance ahead."”
"Cang Yun, how did you know?" Murong Suqi asked.”
Cang Yun was tongue-tied.”
"Haha, Cang Yun, you're really humorous.”Ping Qing patted Cang Yun's back and looked at him with pity, implying that this child's head had been smashed by the tunnel.
Cang Yun's face turned red, his heart filled with regret, but he didn't know how to explain.
Su Murong smiled." Anyway, we don't know where the entrance is. We'll just follow Fifth Junior Brother's instructions and walk forward."”
The few of them walked forward for a moment and indeed saw a row of corridors, exactly the same as what Cang Yun had seen in his dream. The few of them looked at Cang Yun in shock. Cang Yun looked at the tunnel entrance in shock.
"Cang Yun is a god? Are you very strong? You can even dream of this? Could it be that King Wu De came to you in a dream?" Ping Qing said.
Cang Yun's mind was in a mess as he recalled the events that had happened, especially the scene where he had seen the corpses of several people hanging on the wooden pillars. "Senior Brother, I don't know either. I did dream about it.”
"Then what else did you dream about, Fifth Senior Brother?”The Vermilion Bird asked.
Cang Yun looked up at the sky and sighed,"Let's talk about it after we get out."”Cang Yun really didn't want to talk about such an unlucky dream at this time.
"Fifth Junior Brother, did you dream that there was danger in the tunnel?" Su Murong asked.”
Cang Yun shook his head.
"Alright, we'll enter the tunnel and be careful.”Su Murong took the lead, and the few of them entered the tunnel together. Sure enough, there was no ambush in the tunnel. They walked straight through the tunnel. After walking for about ten minutes, everyone saw the light at the exit. Su Murong and the others were filled with joy, while Cang Yun's heart was racing. He was filled with worry, not knowing what kind of scene he would see at the exit. What should come would come, and he couldn't stop. No matter how worried Cang Yun was, he still had to walk to the end.
The few of them finally walked out of the tunnel. The strong light outside the tunnel blinded them.
After a while, Su Murong and the others opened their eyes one after another. Only Cang Yun was unwilling to open his eyes.
"Wow!"
"Ah!"
He shouted repeatedly, shouting so loudly that Cang Yun's heart was about to break. Could it be that something really happened? Or a corpse? Cang Yun finally couldn't suppress his curiosity and opened his eyes. The scene in front of him made Cang Yun cry out in shock.
It was not a corpse, nor was it hell. In front of him were colorful clouds, beautiful buildings, pavilions, and immortal wind. The air was filled with fragrance. In the sea of clouds, cranes were flying and spiritual birds were chirping happily. The neat white marble road was paved with carved railings on both sides, extending in all directions. (You can refer to the clip from Journey to the West.)
The few of them were shocked by this immortal scene and were immersed in it.
"Have we become immortals?" The Vermilion Bird's eyes widened, and his words were stiff.
Su Murong said," It's probably a formation set up by the Immortal Dao. I don't know if it's an illusion formation or a killing formation. We must be careful."”When he turned around, he saw Ping Qing, Ping Jian, and Cang Yun with Zhu Xue and Vermilion Bird plucking fruits from a nearby immortal tree to eat. Su Murong was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Su Murong was still fuming after teaching his junior brothers and sisters a lesson. Murong Su was covering his mouth and laughing at the side.
"I don't know what's going on in this array. Let's not split up and move forward together.”
" It's Eldest Senior Brother," they answered in unison.
Following the white jade path under their feet, the few of them kept moving forward. However, no matter how they walked, the surrounding scenery was similar. They either returned to the original point or kept moving forward. They still could not escape.
" Senior Brother, the Immortal World is infinitely vast," Murong Su said." We can't advance like this." This illusion array might be imitating the immortal world. Then, we don't know when we can walk out.”
Zhu Xue condensed her sword Qi, causing the sword light on her bamboo sword to shine brightly. She slashed with all her might, wanting to break through the space here like how she broke through the Thirteen Hells of Darkness Great Formation. Unfortunately, nothing happened.
Su Murong thought for a moment and said," We might be confused by the illusion formation. The sword qi doesn't know how to do it. I'll release the sword qi and we'll follow it."”
In fact, Su Murong was wrong. The Illusory Formation set up by a person with a high cultivation could form a world of its own. Both the person and the Sword Qi would be restricted. Of course, if Su Murong's cultivation was high enough, his sword qi could shatter the void and break the illusion array. The relationship was based on the cultivation of the person who set up the array and the person who broke it.
Su Murong gathered his sword energy to the maximum before releasing his sword energy. The sword Qi tore through the air. It actually didn't go in a straight line, but followed one of the many winding roads.
They couldn't figure out the reason, so they didn't have the mood to think about it. They chased after the sword qi all the way. When the Sword Qi dissipated, Su Murong replaced it with Sword Qi. After releasing nine flashes of Sword Qi, the surrounding scenery finally began to change. The number of buildings gradually decreased, and the sky began to fill with golden light. The sea of clouds turned into solid ground, and the golden Mandala flowers were scattered at first, then gradually increased, and finally bloomed in clusters.
"This is the Golden Mandala of the Immortal Dao Buddhist Sect.”Murong Su said. "Xue, don't pick it! Que, you can't pick it either!”
Fortunately, Murong Su reacted quickly and stopped Zhu Xue and the Vermillion Bird who were about to pluck the flowers. Who knew what would come out if they really plucked the flowers?
"Eldest Senior Brother, what should we do now? Continue to follow the sword qi?" Ping Qing asked.
"This, this is the only way." Su Murong said.
At this moment, a ball of light flashed in the sky. Everyone looked up and saw a Buddha emitting golden light descending from the sky and hanging in the air.
The Buddha's big ears were facing his chest. His face was simple and solemn, and his face was full of kindness. He looked at the few people below and said,"Benefactors, how did you come to my Buddha's Pure Land?”His voice was magnetic.
"Is it really Buddha?" The few of them exclaimed at the same time.
The Buddha smiled." Patrons, my cultivation is shallow. I dare not call myself Buddha." Seeing that you have a deep affinity with Buddhism, I wonder if you are willing to convert to Buddhism?”The voice was imbued with magic power and was directly imprinted into their divine senses.
"You monk, do you think you can break our Dao hearts with just a few words?" Su Murong laughed.”He turned around and saw Ping Qing, Ping Jian and Cang Yun kneeling on the ground, kowtowing. They even shouted,"Master, please shave your hair."
Su Murong was under a lot of pressure.
"Junior Brother, what are you three doing?" Su Murong shouted.”
The three people on the ground returned to their original nature after being shouted at by Su Murong. They quickly stood up and looked at the Buddha in the air with red faces.
Buddha was not angry. He looked at Su Murong and said,""Benefactor, you ruined my plan. Be careful of retribution. Be careful of this Penniless Monk cursing you.”
Su Murong's reply was a flash of sword qi.
The Buddha smiled, put his palms together, and bowed. A golden light shot out from the Buddha's hand and blocked Su Murong's sword qi. Su Murong continuously released sword qi, and the golden light of the Buddha continued to shine.
"Old monk!"
"You brat!"
"That monk is cursing, did you hear that?”
"Shixiong also scolded him!"
"Evenly matched!"
"Good luck!"
The few of them shouted a few words as if they had just woken up from a dream.”
Ping Qing and Ping Jian shouted as they pulled out their bamboo swords and charged at the Buddha. Murong Su, Zhu Xue, and the Vermilion Bird did not react so violently, nor did they fall behind. When they ran to the feet of the Buddha, they realized that they could not hit the Buddha in the air. Cang Yun ran over and added a Vajra Talisman to each of them. The few of them began to jump and kill.
Patron, you guys are actually ganging up on me?"
Patron, it's too dangerous for you to jump around."
"Patron, can you not jump together?”
"Patron, why do you hate this poor monk?”
"Patron, if this continues, This Penniless Monk won't be polite anymore."
"Patron, Patron, ah ~~ you guys!"
"This Penniless Monk will fight it out with you guys!"
The Buddha tried his best to fight, but he was still besieged by everyone. His monk robe hung on his body one by one. In the end, he was no match for her and ran away.
"This Penniless Monk will come back again." These were the last words of the unknown Buddha.
The few of them chased after him relentlessly. The buddha did not catch up. The buddha ran very fast and soon disappeared. Everyone stopped and scanned their surroundings. At some point, the scenery around them had changed and they had returned to the Mausoleum of Martial Virtue. It was unknown if it was because they had defeated the Buddha just now or if they had been unintentionally led out of the immortal realm by the Buddha.
The few of them were now standing on a square, but it was not a square with a green granite stone tablet. There was a majestic palace in front of everyone. The palace was surrounded by luminous pearls, which reflected light from the golden mirrors, making the interior of the palace golden. The few of them felt insignificant at the same time.
"Senior Brother, is this King Wude's palace? Why did you build another one after you died?" Ping Qing asked.
" What do you know?" Ping Jian said." Many dead people like to bring good things to their graves. There are also many people who make a fortune by digging up dead people's graves." However, trespassing into the imperial mausoleum was a capital offense.”
Murong Su looked at Ping Jian and said,"I can't tell how you know about these things, Ah 'Jian."”
"I saw Third Master reading an ancient book called 'Tomb Robbing Ghost Blows Out the Light'. I took advantage of him and secretly took it to read. That's how I found out."”
Everyone looked at him respectfully.
"Fourth Senior Brother, is this considered trespassing into the Imperial Tombs?" asked Vermilion Bird.”
"It can only be considered trespassing into the royal tomb."”
"Then what crime are we guilty of?"
" This..." Ping Jian coughed and turned to look at the palace."What a majestic palace."
"Alright, since we're already here, let's enter the palace and take a look." Su Murong smiled.”
" Good, good!" Zhu Xue and Zhu Que were the most excited and rushed to the front. Because Ping Jian had revealed some of his talent just now, he was now pretending to be an old scholar and walking slowly at the back.
After going up the long stairs, they entered the main hall. There were eighteen red pillars standing on the main hall, supporting the entire building. It was magnificent. The square bricks on the ground were very flat, and the light was shining. At the northernmost end of the hall, there was a tall platform covered in yellow. On it was a golden dragon chair. There was a person sitting on it, but they couldn't see him clearly from afar.
"Could it be King Wu De? Why isn't it in the coffin?" Cang Yun asked.
"Who knows? Let's go take a look." Ping Jian said and ran over to see who was sitting on the coiling dragon chair.
When he got closer, he saw a Taoist priest sitting on the coiling dragon chair. He was wearing a wide blue silk Daoist robe and a Taoist crown hanging high. His face was blue and he had no beard. His skin was stiff and it was obvious that he had been dead for a long time.
Ping Jian was staring at the dead Taoist priest. The Taoist priest suddenly opened his eyes and said sternly,"Who are you?"
