Su Dao Xing led four guardians of the way towards the depths of Wanfo Temple.
Inside the Temple of Ten Thousand Buddhas is a restricted area. At this moment, Su Dao Xing and his group are heading towards the restricted area of the Temple of Ten Thousand Buddhas.
Not only the Temple of Ten Thousand Buddhas, but many places in the Eastern Dynasty have restricted areas. These restricted areas are forbidden by the Martial King from entering, as there may be great dangers within, or it is possible that these restricted areas are worlds where only cultivators can set foot.
The four great dynasties are only the royal courts of the mundane world, not the masters of the entire vast world. The masters of the vast world are those mysterious and lofty cultivators.
The place where the secular world and the cultivator's world are connected is those restricted areas. Ordinary people entering the restricted area are equivalent to giving up their lives, and anything can happen inside the restricted area.
"Up ahead is the restricted area of the Temple of Ten Thousand Buddhas. According to the Eastern Earth Imperial Dynasty's laws, anyone who sets foot in the restricted area will be guilty of a first-degree felony, punishable by beheading." Su Liu pointed towards the dilapidated temples up ahead.
Su Dao Xing glanced at those temples and said, "I want to go find the Sacred Temple. The Sacred Temple can't be in the mortal realm, it must be in the restricted area. If the four masters are afraid, I'll enter the restricted area alone."
He stepped firmly into the restricted area.
Su Hong Zhuang, Su Duan, Su Hen, Su Liu Zhi, they can only look at each other and smile bitterly. They have been orthodox and conservative martial artists all their lives, never having crossed the line before. This time is an exception.
Inside the Forbidden City of Wanfo Temple are ancient temples everywhere.
A temple was cut in half by a knife, with an incredibly smooth cutting surface.
A huge handprint appeared on the wall of a temple, and it looked like the handprint of some ferocious beast.
On top of an ancient temple, there was a giant skeleton of a beast that was three zhang long. The skeleton was black as if the beast had died from poisoning on top of the temple.
This place, these temples, everywhere exudes an eerie atmosphere.
The four guardians simultaneously drew out their own weapons and gazed solemnly in all directions.
Su Dao woke up with a determined look in his eyes and continued to walk step by step towards the deeper part of the forbidden area. Every time he arrived at a temple, he would stop and observe for a moment.
Each temple has a history, it's just that no one can understand that history anymore because it's too far away.
Wow!
Su Dao Xing and the four guardians all took a deep breath in unison.
In front of a dilapidated temple gate stood a strange and eerie man. He was standing there, as if waiting for Su Dao and his group to wake up.
"Evil King!"
Su Liu pointed out the identity of the man first and exclaimed in surprise.
The great world's martial artists who cultivate orthodox techniques are called Martial Kings, while some martial artists who cultivate evil and demonic techniques are called Evil Kings.
The Evil King and the Martial King cannot coexist, so the Evil King can only live in hiding in the mortal world, afraid to reveal his true identity as the Evil King, or else he would be like a street rat, with everyone shouting to strike him down.
A demonic king has appeared in the forbidden zone, it must be an enemy rather than a friend.
The evil king's eerie eyes stared at the five people, as if a ferocious beast was staring at its own prey.
A torrential momentum from Xie Wang's body pressed towards Su Dao Xing, Su Hong Zhuang, Su Han, Su Liu Zhi and Su Duan.
The five of them were like a small boat on the vast ocean under that terrifying atmosphere, with the danger of capsizing at any moment.
"What a terrifying aura, the aura alone can kill people. The strength of this evil king is above us. Fortunately, this evil king has not yet reached the realm of cultivation, and is not a cultivator. We still have a chance to fight back." Su cut off his thoughts and swung his knife, slashing forward.
Su Duan's one slash turned into a thousand slashes, the thousand slashes fanned out and chopped forward, directly chopping the aura emitted by the Evil King into fragments.
The five men felt a sudden relief from the pressure on their bodies and simultaneously let out a mouthful of stale air.
Su Duan drew her sword and moved like flowing water, each stroke cutting towards the evil king.
Su Hong Zhuang shot out her own flying sword at the same time as Su Duan drew his knife, and with one stroke she aimed straight for Xie Wang's throat.
Su Hong threw out his abacus, and the beads on it transformed into dark weapons that shot towards Xie Wang's vital points.
Su Liu Zhi displayed his wonderful technique, pointing one finger at the back of the Evil King's brain.
The evil king's face was calm, he faced the four martial kings' combined attack, his mouth only had a cold smile, in the critical moment, he suddenly pulled out a mysterious banner.
The evil king waved the demon flag in front of him, forming an impenetrable defense.
Su Duan, Su Hong Zhuang, Su Hen, and Su Liu Zhi's attacks were like hitting a copper wall and iron fortress, unable to break through the Evil King's defense.
Xia Wang Da has a banner in his hand, with an invincible defensive aura.
The evil king waved the demon flag, which could defend against enemy attacks. His shadow appeared in front of Su Duan like a ghost, and he pointed at Su Duan's brow.
Su Duan suddenly felt a terrifying force invading his body, and in an instant he lost control of his own body, falling backwards to the ground.
The Evil King's single move defeated Su Duan, the strongest among the five people, and that method was truly terrifying.
The Evil King's movement was too strange, he suddenly appeared in front of Su Hongzhuang, a palm chopped on Su Hongzhuang's neck, knocking her unconscious.
Su Hong and Su Liu pointed left and right, pincer-attacking towards Xie Wang.
The evil king struck Su Han's body with a single blow, striking him like a thunderbolt, his whole body numb and sore, falling to the ground.
Su Liu Zhi was shocked and immediately retreated backwards.
The evil king's dynasty Su Liu Zhi swept away, one finger pointed at Su Liu Zhi's chest, a huge force blasted Su Liu Zhi flying out.
Xia Wang's one-fingered force was too terrifying. Su Liu was knocked flying while spitting out three mouthfuls of blood in a row.
In just a short time, the Evil King defeated four Martial Kings.
The four martial kings were vastly inferior in strength compared to the evil king. In front of the evil king, the four martial kings were just tiny and weak existences like ants.
Su Dao Xing bitterly smiled and threw a punch at the Evil King.
The lazy and tyrannical Demon King swept his gaze over Su Dao Xing, then casually waved the demonic flag in his hand. A black mist shot out from the flag and enveloped Su Dao Xing.
"Black poison!" Su Liu's face changed greatly as he saw the black mist entering Su Dao Xing's body, coughing up blood.
The black sorcerer will surely die unless he breaks through the eighteen shackles.
Even if the Seventeenth Rank Martial King was poisoned by the Black Witch's poison, he could only wait for death unless he broke through the Eighteen Shackles and forced the Black Witch's poison out of his body.
Su Dao Xing was only a warrior king of the eight shackles, even if he were given an immortal pill, it would be impossible for him to break through the eighteen shackles before the Black Witch's poison took effect.
In everyone's eyes, Su Dao Xing is already a dead man!
The evil king smiled wickedly and didn't even glance at Su Dao Xing, turning to leave. His mission was only to kill Su Dao Xing alone, he couldn't be bothered to take action and kill the rest of them.
Su Dao Xing was invaded by the black witch poison, every part of his body turned pitch black, even his blood turned black. He fell to the ground, and the land beneath him instantly turned into a scorched earth.
The black witch poison on Su Dao Xing's body spread in all directions, and the trees and wild grasses around him withered and died. Within a few meters of his body, everything was desolate and dead.
"I won't die!" Su Dao woke up in a daze, struggling, as if he had returned to the meditation class, and heard the sound of chanting in his ears. In an instant, he merged with the statue in the holy temple on Mount Wei.
At this moment, he is the idol, and the idol is him.
The holy temple emitted a sacred glow, the divine power wandered on the statue, and slowly extracted the black witch poison from Su Dao's body, forming a ball.
Something strange happened, the black witch poison in Su Dao's body disappeared, and in just a short time, all the black witch poison in his body was completely cleared.
Wow!
Su Dao woke up and spat out a mouthful of air, got up, patted the dust off his body, and moved the four guardians together.
Cough! Cough!
Su Liu zhi coughed up blood nonstop, he stretched out his hand and pointed at a bag at his waist.
Su Dao woke up and took out a bag from under Su Liu's fingers, taking out a pill for Su Liu to take.
Su Liu Zhi took the medicine pill, and after a short while, he no longer coughed up blood. He signaled to Su Dao Xing to give Su Duan, Su Hong Zhuang, and Su Han the medicine pills.
Su Dao Xing recognized the medicine pill in Su Liu Zhi's bag as a Rapid Life-Saving Pill, worth a thousand gold coins. He didn't know how Su Liu Zhi had obtained such a precious pill, but he didn't dare hesitate for a moment and gave the pills to Su Hong Zhuang, Su Duan, and Su Han.
After a while, Su Duan, Su Hong Zhuang and Su Han Chang let out a breath of relief, having narrowly escaped the danger to their lives.
"Four masters, you first stay here and cultivate, I'll be responsible for guarding you." Su Dao Xing was on high alert, scanning the surroundings.
The four escorts looked at each other with wry smiles. As escorts, their duty was to protect the young master, but now they were being protected by him instead - this old face couldn't show itself in public anymore.
Four guardians regained their physical strength half a day later.
Su Dao Xing insisted on going deep into the forbidden zone to find the holy temple, and the four guardians couldn't dissuade him, so they had no choice but to follow Su Dao Xing as he ventured deeper into the extremely dangerous depths of the forbidden zone.
The five of them traveled for three days and passed by tens of thousands of temples but didn't see a single sacred temple.
"Huh?"
Su Dao Xing gazed out at a temple in the center of a dense forest of pine trees ahead.
An old monk inside the temple is fiddling with a chessboard on a stone table.
"Be careful, young master." Su Duan reminded Su Xing as he saw him walking towards the temple.
The old monk inside the temple looked harmless, without any evil spirit, like a high-ranking monk who had attained enlightenment, playing chess with his left and right hands in the temple.
"I've seen a great master!"
Su Dao Xing bowed his head and paid respects to the high-ranking monk in the temple far away.
They didn't dare be rude either, and they all bowed their heads in respect to the high monk.
The old monk swept his sleeves and woke up Su Dao with a glance, saying: "No fate, no need to see."
Su Dao Xing suddenly remembered a record left by Gui Sheng, who had once met an old monk at the Temple of Ten Thousand Buddhas and found a sacred temple with his guidance.
Su Dao woke up from his contemplation, bowed to the old monk again and said: "Master! I am a descendant of Gui Sheng, and I have come to this forbidden area in search of a sacred temple. Please, Master, do not hesitate to guide me."
The old monk looked up at Su Dao Xing and muttered to himself, "In a thousand years, there are actually two lunatics who have found the Sacred Temple. Could it be that heaven's will is not yet fulfilled, and the only two remaining sacred temples in the forbidden area are going to be occupied by this master and disciple?"
Su Dao's mind was greatly shocked, he didn't expect that the old monk in front of him was indeed the old monk who had pointed out the location of the Holy Temple to Gui Sheng a thousand years ago. If so, then this old monk had lived for thousands of years, and it was likely that this old monk was actually a living Buddha.
Su Duan, Su Hong Zhuang, Su Hen, and Su Liu Zhi also saw the extraordinary old monk and suspected that he might be a Buddha or a saint.
