“Amitabha…”
The old monk standing on Xu Taiping’s left suddenly put his hands together and chanted a Buddhist chant, and then in an instant, his original kind and benevolent face turned into a fierce and ferocious appearance like a evil spirit and roared:
“You evil creatures, how dare you make trouble in my Buddhist pure land！”
As soon as the words fell, golden halos flew out of his mouth with a boom, blasting several demons on that side into ashes.
At the same time, several other old monks also began to take action.
In just a moment, as one by one the great supernatural powers of Buddhism all the monsters that tried to attack Xu Taiping and the Buddha’s son were subdued by several people.
“Lord Heavenly Protector, are you and the Buddha’s son all right？”
And at this time, the abbot Huiming, with a pale face, trotted all the way to Xu Taiping and asked with a worried look on his face.
Xu Taiping glanced at the couple behind him who were a little frightened and looking at the monks in front of them with a blank expression, and then replied:
“All right.”
The abbot Huiming immediately let out a long sigh of relief.
“Cough cough cough, Junior Brother Huiming, is this, is this the Lord Heavenly Protector？”
At this time, among the old monks on the west side, the old monk with a long face suddenly asked Huiming with a stuttering voice.
“That’s right.”
Huiming nodded with a smile.
At this time, Xu Taiping, because he had already taken off his armor and his clothes were very ordinary, so the several monks didn’t think he was the Heavenly Protector at the beginning.
“Guangze, the abbot of Banruo Temple, pays his respects to the Overcoming Evil Asura Heavenly Protector, Sir!”
“Hongci, the abbot of Fanyin Temple, pays his respects to the Overcoming Evil Asura Heavenly Protector!”
“Abbot Zhiqing of Ciji Temple, pays his respects to the Heavenly Protector of Du’e Asura！”
“Abbot Qingde of Baima Temple, pays his respects to the Heavenly Protector of Du’e Asura！”
After getting Huiming’s confirmation, the abbots of the Western Grand Buddhist Temples in Chuyun Kingdom bowed to Xu Taiping one after another.
“You abbots don’t have to be so polite. I’m just an ordinary cultivator entrusted by Master Kasyapa. After this matter is resolved, I’m going to leave.”
Xu Taiping repeatedly waved his hand and helped up those old abbots one by one.
The matter here was almost resolved, so he didn’t have to pretend to be the Du’e Asura anymore.
After hearing Xu Taiping admit that he was entrusted by Kasyapa, the five abbots including Huiming were all excited.
After all, since the end of the Dharma era, the Zen Sect in Youyun Tian has been forgotten by the Buddhas for tens of thousands of years. They have been struggling to survive until now and finally managed to find a trace of the True Buddha. How could they not be excited？
However, when they heard Xu Taiping say that he was going to “leave”, all the abbots’ faces froze and their eyes showed a look of horror.
“The Heavenly Protector said he was going to leave. Could it be that, could it be that the Ancient Buddha Kasyapa is not satisfied with our performance this time？”
Cold sweat broke out on Huiming’s forehead.
The other abbots beside him had almost the same idea.
Although they didn’t neglect this rescue of Pilu Temple, it’s certain that they didn’t go all out.
And it should be known that, according to the past convention of the Zen sect once a certain ancient Buddha shows his holiness in a certain place, it is very likely that he will regard this place as a ashram and promote his Dharma.
If there is an ancient Buddha to bless, these five Zen temples will surely become Buddhist holy places in the future.
And they themselves are very likely to be the first to break through the Arhat fruit position that has confined the Zen sect Youyun Tian for tens of thousands of years.
Seeing that this great opportunity is about to come to naught, even they who have cultivated their hearts for hundreds of years have wavered.
“Heav, heav, Heavenly Guardian, what do you mean by leaving？”
Abbot Huiming asked Xu Taiping in a trembling voice.
Seeing Huiming asking questions, several abbots immediately cast grateful glances.
“Leave？ It means the literal meaning, to leave Cloud Country.”
Although Xu Taiping was a little feel uncertain about the expressions on the faces of several abbots at this time, he still answered honestly.
As soon as they heard this, the five abbots were like being struck by five thunderbolts, and the oldest abbot of Banruo Temple even staggered and almost fell headlong.
“Heavenly Guardian, since the end of the Dharma era, the Zen sect in Youyun Tian has been diligent in spreading the Dharma in order to keep the incense of the Zen sect from being extinguished. Only in this way can we keep a trace of incense in Cloud Country.”
“And now, the world is about to be in chaos, and demons are running amok in the world. If the Buddhist affinity cannot be continued, I’m afraid that the little bit of incense of the Zen sect in the Cloud State will not be able to be preserved either！”
“All beings are too bitter, and our Zen sect has no way to save them. I still hope that Protector Tian will take pity and inform the ancient Buddha of the situation here.”
Abbot Guangze of the Prajna Temple excitedly knelt down and kowtowed to Xu Taiping.
Hearing this, Xu Taiping finally understood that these abbots probably misunderstood his words.
“Abbot Guangze, you have misunderstood.”
He quickly helped up Abbot Guangze of the Prajna Temple.
“What I mean is…”
“Boom！…
Just as Xu Taiping was about to explain his relationship with Master Kasyapa to the abbots, suddenly, the clouds above the Pilu Temple shone with a great Buddhist light.
A golden body of a Buddha statue faintly appeared in the clouds.
Immediately afterwards, only an extremely majestic voice was heard coming from above：
“The Youyun Zen sect has committed heinous sins. If you know how to repent, first raise the Buddha son to adulthood. After resolving the karma that you have planted, our Buddha will naturally have a decision.”
Hearing this voice, all the Buddhist disciples except Xu Taiping prostrated themselves on the ground and then shout in unison:
“Our Buddha is merciful.”
Although this sentence was said very implicitly, several abbots who knew the ins and outs of the severance of the Buddhist Dharma in Youyun Tian understood it. Besides their faces were all filled with surprise.
