After hearing this, Master Xuanzhi also said in disbelief:
”This… this is Confucius and… and the Spring and Autumn Pen?!”
Regarding the Spring and Autumn Tribulation of the human race, most cultivators have heard something about it.
After the Three Sovereigns first suppressed and killed the Demon Empress, the human cultivators had no more external troubles, and then there was a short-lived Spring and Autumn prosperity.
Unfortunately, things will turn around when they reach the extreme, and prosperity will surely be followed by decline.
Just when the Spring and Autumn prosperity was at its peak, there was turmoil within the human cultivation world, and wars broke out in the five directions of the world.
The later Confucian and Military Schools also emerged in this chaotic world.
It was not until the appearance of the first sage of the Confucian School, the Ancestral Saint Confucius, that this Spring and Autumn chaos that lasted for nearly a thousand years ended.
Looking at the old Confucius in the front of her, Dongfang Yuejian’s eyes were full of awe and said:
“Although it seems that the old Confucius ended this Spring and Autumn chaos with just one pen and a few words.”
“But in fact, this Spring and Autumn Pen, and the vast righteousness in the pen, were accumulated by the Confucian disciples through thousands of years of traveling around the world.”
“And because of this pen, the old Confucius took on the countless karma of the chaotic wars on himself. Not only did he have no hope of ascending, but he also had to use his reincarnation body to continuously repay this karma.”
After hearing this, everyone fell silent for a while.
“Amitabha…”
Abbot Kasyapa spoke at this time and said:
“The old Confucius has great merit in this world. After this karma is resolved, he will naturally be able to achieve great enlightenment.”
Several people nodded upon hearing this.
At this time, Xu Taiping suddenly asked curiously:
Abbot Kasyapa, the treasure that Miss Dongfang drew in the Ruyi Jubaopan, could it be…
When saying this, Xu Taiping’s gaze fell on the shadow, the Spring and Autumn Pen in the hand of the Old Master and then he continued with a serious expression:
Could it be the Spring and Autumn Pen in the hand of the Old Master?
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yuejian on the side immediately looked nervous.
Although the Spring and Autumn Pen is a acquired divine weapon, its value is no less than that of a congenital divine weapon!
Precisely because of this, Dongfang Yuejian is so nervous.
Abbot Kasyapa didn’t speak, but looked at the Ruyi Jubaopan and asked with palms together:
Ruyi, the thing you want to give to Donor Dongfang, is it the Spring and Autumn Pen?
As soon as the voice fell, the clear water in the Ruyi Jubaopan created ripples.
Immediately afterwards, the phantom in the water mist above the treasure plate suddenly changed leaving only a Spring and Autumn Pen quietly placed on a table.
At the same time, a line of powerful characters slowly appeared on a piece of white paper placed on the table:
The Spring and Autumn Pen of the Confucian school, those with virtue can possess it.
After seeing this scene, Abbot Kasyapa immediately smiled and nodded and said:
“Judging from this, the treasure that Miss Dongfang has drawn must undoubtedly be the Spring and Autumn Brush.”
Upon hearing this, the gazes of Xu Taiping and Master Xuanzhi qiqi looked towards Dongfang Yuejian.
At this moment, Dongfang Yuejian was like a petrified person, sitting there motionless, and her eyes were even more fixed on the Spring and Autumn Brush in the water mist screen without blinking.
Seeing that Dongfang Yuejian didn’t respond, Abbot Jiaye immediately reminded her again and said, “Miss Dongfang, if you are not satisfied, you can put your hand into the plate and then…”
Before Abbot Jiaye could finish speaking, he heard Dongfang Yuejian interrupt him and say:
“I’m satisfied! Very satisfied!”
Dongfang Yuejian continued with a slightly trembling voice:
“But, but what virtue and ability do I have to obtain the Spring and Autumn Brush…”
At this moment, she finally had a personal experience of the word “generous gift.”
Abbot Jiaye smiled and said:
“Miss Dongfang, since the Spring and Autumn Brush has responded to you, then you are the person with virtue.”
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yuejian immediately nodded vigorously and said:
“Abbot Jiaye, you are right. Since the Spring and Autumn Brush has chosen me, then I can’t let it down either!”
As she spoke, she saw Dongfang Yuejian turn her head to look at Xu Taiping and Master Xuanzhi and helplessly smiled bitterly and said:
“Abbot Taiping, Master Xuanzhi, I can’t refuse the reward offered by Abbot Kasyapa.”
Master Xuanzhi smiled and nodded, then turned to look at Xu Taiping and said:
“Brother Taiping, even without this reward, I am willing to do my part for Kasyapa Temple. What do you think?”
Seeing that both of them had agreed, Xu Taiping also nodded and said:
“Since you are both willing to take on this commission, then let’s discuss the plan to go to Broken Moon Cave next.”
This trip was originally prepared for his future breakthrough to the Heaven-shaking Realm. How could he not be willing to go with them?
Seeing that all three had agreed to this commission, Abbot Kasyapa suddenly let out a long sigh and said:
“I know the Broken Moon Cave, the cave of the Yin God Yellow Robe, very well. After we leave the pagoda, we can discuss it together.”
Hearing this, several people nodded one after another.
At this time, Abbot Kasyapa suddenly looked at Xuanzhi and Xu Taiping and asked:
“Don’t the two of you want to see what the treasure bestowed by the Ruyi Jubaopan is?”
Master Xuanzhi shook his head and said:
“It’s not too late to look at it after we come back from Broken Moon Cave.”
Xu Taiping also nodded and said:
“If we don’t retrieve that magical wood, it’s useless to look at it.”
Hearing this, Abbot Kasyapa laughed heartily and said:
“Since that’s the case, why don’t the two of you take out your respective treasures and use the remaining merit and virtue in your hands to let this Ruyi Jubao Basin repair them for you.”
The Mysterious Knowledge Mage asked curiously:
“Can the treasure’s original spiritual power be restored with this Ruyi Jubao Basin after it is exhausted?”
After the original spiritual power of the treasure is exhausted, to restore it, it may take as short as three to five months, or as long as three to five years, or even three to five decades.
Abbot Kasyapa asked with a smile:
“Otherwise, why would it be named Ruyi?”
The Mysterious Knowledge Mage immediately said happily:
“It seems that this trip to Broken Moon Cave, my Purple Gold Bowl can come in handy again!”
Hearing this, Xu Taiping’s heart also moved and said:
“If we can restore some of the original spiritual power of the Guicang Blade, this trip to Broken Moon Cave should not be so hard for us.”
……
Another month later.
The Barbaric Wilderness.
Twin Fork Ridge.
Beside a large stone in the moonlight.
Abbot Kasyapa, wearing a kasaya, holding the Argha vase in one hand and raising a palm with the other, looked at Xu Taiping and the other three beside him and smiled:
“You three, I will go ahead and lead that yellow-robed one out of Broken Moon Cave.”
“You watch for the right time and quickly enter Broken Moon Cave to take out the sacred wood of my Kasyapa Temple.”
“Remember, once you take out the divine wood, don’t delay for a moment. Immediately leave the Broken Moon Cave and meet me here.”
Everyone nodded in unison upon hearing this.
After the abbot of Kasyapa left, Xuanzhi let out a long sigh and said:
“We have prepared for a full month, and it will definitely be foolproof!”
As soon as these words were spoken, Xu Taiping and Dongfang Yuejian’s hearts inexplicably shuddered, and they both looked at Xuanzhi.
Then, Xu Taiping looked at the abbot of Kasyapa who was walking towards the Broken Moon Cave, gently patted the shoulder of Master Xuanzhi, and said in a low voice without looking back:
“Master Xuanzhi, after entering the Broken Moon Cave later, do more and talk less.”
However, as soon as Xu Taiping said these words, the lotus pupil in his left eye suddenly became hot, and a soul mark entered his mind accordingly.
Xu Taiping’s heart immediately shuddered and he said:
“The lotus pupil chooses to activate its divine power at this time. There must be danger approaching.”
