With Countless Qualities Bestowed Upon Me, I Shall Ultimately Become Immortal-Chapter 686 - 571: Divine Monk’s Accountability, The Anxious Monk, and Muscle-Tendon Cleansing!
"Master Bai Bao, greetings, I’ve met the Immaculate Divine Monk."
He wasn’t familiar with the latter, so he refrained from getting closer.
Bai Bao glanced at his junior brother and said:
"Then I’ll step back first, I’ll leave this place to you."
The Immaculate Divine Monk waved his hand:
"Don’t worry, it’s not a secret, feel free to listen in, senior brother."
Upon hearing this, Meng Chuan’s heart settled.
Judging by the circumstances and the monk’s tone, today wouldn’t be like interrogating a criminal, so there shouldn’t be much of an issue.
It’s quite normal for a martial artist to die in a Demon Nest.
However, both he as the task leader and Liao Yuan as a national talent were of "special identities."
Thus, a special inquiry would be conducted, especially by... the Martial Arts Celestial King.
The death of any national talent is undoubtedly a loss in terms of national development.
Meng Chuan just sat opposite the Immaculate Divine Monk, taking his first look at him.
Immediately, he felt, almost instinctively, the vast sea-like golden Buddhist light, though it was hidden within.
The Buddhist majesty was imposing, making Meng Chuan tense for a moment, but the other said:
"Don’t be nervous; I am investigating Liao Yuan’s death during the task as an [Eastern Alternate Guardian].
I also want to understand the task’s course, young benefactor, just be honest."
Previously, Huijue told me that he had informed you ahead of time that I would seek you, oh yes, he is my direct disciple."
Meng Chuan suddenly understood why Grandmaster Huijue knew the inside story beforehand.
The saying goes, birds of a feather flock together.
Both are recognized martial arts talents, seeds of the Buddhist Sect, passing down lineage is quite normal.
Coming back to the present, Meng Chuan spoke earnestly:
"Understood, Meng Chuan won’t hold anything back."
He hadn’t expected that the Immaculate Divine Monk of the Buddhist Sect would also hold the identity of an alternate guardian.
The current Eastern Guardian, with the esteemed title [Huaihai Dragon King · Cui Yunyu].
He is advanced in age, once the first principal of the Eastern United University when it was established, a Martial Arts Ancestor-level, his age second only to the living fossil of Great Chu, [Divine Machine Metamorphosis · Zhao Yingchun].
If this Ancestor plans to retreat for a long secluded session to break through Rank Seven, or due to energy depletion from aging,
the Immaculate Divine Monk would serve as a substitute, filling the guardian position.
"Please speak."
Immaculate slightly nodded, showing no emotion.
Bai Bao saw no need to evade, so he sat beside, simply listening in.
Meng Chuan began recounting from his step into the Demon Nest, the former two occasionally nodded as they listened.
Especially the Immaculate Divine Monk, he was slightly surprised within.
This kid tells the story like weaving a tale...
If he didn’t know the details, it would indeed be hard to accept...
First killing the Flame Giant, then the Tiger Demon.
These are both among the strong of the Third Rank Great Demons.
Such strength with a second-level body?
No wonder he could be appointed as the task leader, certainly has some merit, somewhat intriguing...
Bai Bao sat stably opposite, his mood remained calm.
He was aware of Meng Chuan’s "uniqueness" and was not surprised by his successive reverse kills in the Demon Nest.
"Junior brother Immaculate, how is this child? Any resemblance to your past demeanor?"
The Immaculate Divine Monk nodded with a smile, musing internally.
"Whether or not I had that demeanor in the past, senior brother... you know...
Who could kill a Third Rank Tiger Demon single-handedly during the second limit..."
The Tiger Demon of the Celestial Demon species is akin to human martial arts geniuses.
Generally, it’s hard to win against equals, let alone surpassing one’s rank...
Next, Meng Chuan was about to discuss the main point, so he took out a small bronze umbrella.
As soon as this item appeared, Bai Bao and Immaculate immediately tensed up.
The two exchanged glances, Bai Bao made a call with one hand and the umbrella fell into his hand.
Though the umbrella was taken from his hand, Meng Chuan was not anxious.
Master Bai Bao is not an outsider.
Bringing out this item was not only to explain Liao Yuan’s cause of death but also to take the opportunity to learn more about Duowen and some secrets regarding this umbrella.
Additionally, presenting this item in front of the Buddhist Sect high-levels also serves as a slight certification from Buddha.
So that in the future, when he becomes the master of Bei Ju Lu Zhou, the Dragon King Temple doesn’t get swept away by floods...
Bai Bao held the umbrella in his hand, gently levitating it in his palm, fine gold specks rising from his fingertips, circling around the umbrella.
"This item had been lost for a long time, I remember it was taken by one from Taihang Mountain..."
Master Bai Bao spoke, Meng Chuan immediately focused, listening intently.
The word "again" holds a lot of information.
It indicates many Incense Fire Immortals and Buddhas had died at its hands.
It seems the old demon of mountain whispers is quite skillful at eroding Incense Fire Immortals and Buddhas...
Then Meng Chuan speculated that his quick awakening from the Demon Nest, even nearing the breakthrough of dimensional shackles to step out of the Demon Nest, was mostly due to this.
The Luo Tian Great Assembly is imminent.
It’s probably because of his frenetic demon-staining of Immortals and Buddhas, growing too quickly?
In an instant, numerous ideas emerged in Meng Chuan’s mind.
"Master Bai Bao, did Shaolin already know that Duowen Celestial King was being demon-stained?"
Bai Bao nodded, sighing:
"Yes, but we monks are truly powerless.
Mountain whispers personally invaded, intruded into the Buddha’s Dharma Realm, sliced off Bei Ju Lu Zhou. Not only Duowen Celestial King, the ’God’ lasting in Bei Ju Lu Zhou was wholly demon-stained and divided by its minions.
All we can do is tighten the defense of the other three major continents within the realm, but this is a mental-level battle, we are still far behind..."
Upon hearing Master Bai Bao’s words, Meng Chuan appeared thoughtful.
Daoists and Buddhists were never aligned, yet Shaolin consented to the Taihang Great Assembly so quickly, almost an all-out affair.
Besides ensuring the peace of the entire realm, today it seems they had no choice but forced...
In the Pasa World, the fall of Bei Ju Lu Zhou is just the beginning.
If mountain whispers are not curtailed, allowing its rampant plundering.
