In the future, Earth becomes a relic of the mythical era.

Chapter 389 The Player

This move...

It seems to have some resemblance to the Bai family's hidden dragon, capable of shaking mountains and rivers...

Xie Lingxin recalled Chen Yuntao's moves from earlier.

However, its power far surpassed that of the lurking dragons and earth-shaking creatures he had seen before.

"Are you OK?"

Chen Yuntao finished his stance and stood up, hands behind his back, his training clothes still as clean as ever.

Xie Lingxin truly felt what it meant to have the demeanor of a grandmaster!

He thought he was quite knowledgeable and experienced.

Although it is only at the title level, with the Golden Light Supreme Divine Power, it can unleash power far exceeding that of a title level. Even if it is not as good as a mage or grandmaster, the difference should not be too great.

But the facts brought him to his senses.

Compared to true masters and grandmasters, the gap is something that cannot be bridged by a few hundred years of cultivation forcibly increased through supernatural powers.

Especially since his strength lies only in mental cultivation, he might still be able to put up a fight against a mage.

However, the physical body still has not broken through the shackles of the sixth level.

With his current physical cultivation level, if a grandmaster gets close, he has no chance to fight back!

"It's nothing, that was just..."

Xie Lingxin suppressed her shock.

Upon seeing this, Chen Yuntao's eyes revealed a hint of approval.

The terrifying power of grandmasters and Dharma masters can only be truly understood by those who have reached that level.

When a grandmaster goes all out, it's already a feat to not resist, let alone be intimidated by his will.

Xie Lingxin was still able to make a move, even if it was unsuccessful, which was still quite incredible.

"Someone from the Wang family?"

Chen Yuntao said, "To be precise, they are legendary creatures."

"A legendary creature?!"

Xie Lingxin was startled: "Is that someone who came from the legendary realm?"

Chen Yuntao said, "There's nothing strange about that."

"The White Lotus Society can even create something like a Faceless Buddha, don't you yourself also keep a deity?"

"This is not an easy task, but there is always a way."

Xie Lingxin came to her senses.

indeed.

Legend has it that living beings appear in the material world, but he has actually seen many of them.

However, aside from uncontrollable random events like the legendary pollution, achieving this is not easy.

Wangcai's power stems from the presence of the Yellow God Yue Zhang, who can seal off the shrine in the material world, giving it a spiritual anchor.

Needless to say, the Faceless Buddha was something the White Lotus had been plotting for countless years.

In fact, the Heavenly Altar General Command Diagram in the Shenxiao Taoist practice is also of this type.

With the presence of the Divine Altar of the Heavenly Firmament, the deities of the Divine Firmament Thunder Department could manifest their divine power in the material world.

I wonder how much it will cost...

"That must be a legendary creature subdued by the Wang family."

Chen Yuntao said regretfully, "Unfortunately, this person's methods were somewhat strange, and we were unable to capture him."

Xie Lingxin was silent for a moment: "Did Patriarch Chen deliberately lure him out?"

Chen Yuntao smiled, which was taken as tacit agreement.

“The Wang family’s plot to seize the ‘Guanyin Precious Scroll’ must have been going on for quite some time.”

He narrowed his eyes slightly: "I've long suspected that the disappearance of Master Shuiyue's golden body, the injury to her primordial spirit, and the theft of her physical body—all of these things—were orchestrated by a dark force behind the scenes."

"Otherwise, with Master Shuiyue's cultivation level, although the remnants of the White Lotus are troublesome, they don't have that much ability."

Master Shuiyue?

Xie Lingxin's eyes flashed: "Master Shuiyue also has the Guanyin Scroll?"

Chen Yuntao shook his head: "I don't know, but if we're talking about who in the Federation is most likely to obtain the 'Guanyin' position, then it must be Master Shuiyue."

“If the Wang family wants to seize the position of Guanyin, they will definitely get rid of Shuiyue.”

I see……

Xie Ling thought of the lingering echo of Master Shuiyue's voice before his passing, and clenched her fists involuntarily.

Chen Yuntao said, "It's a pity that the other party never left any trace, making it impossible for me to find out who the mastermind is."

“It wasn’t until you were assassinated that I caught a clue and followed the trail to find out what happened.”

Assassination?!
Xie Lingxin was shocked: "Ye Longtang's henchmen hired someone on the black market to assassinate me. Is the Wang family behind that mysterious person?"

Chen Yuntao nodded: "Not bad."

No wonder...

The mysterious person who manipulated Ye Longtang's henchmen to hire someone to kill him was a titled spiritual master, but he was silenced afterward.

If a titled spiritual master can be so easily discarded, who else but a prestigious family could be so generous?
He suddenly remembered that when Jin Chi Bo Hai said that he had offended several powerful families, including the Jin family, the Xiao family, the Hu family, and the Wang family.

At the time, I was wondering, what was this Wang family?
good good!
New and old grudges have all come together!
Xie Lingxin gritted her teeth secretly.

Suddenly it dawned on her: "Wait a minute... Why would Wang want to kill me? I don't have any Guanyin scrolls on me?"

At that time, he was just an insignificant nobody.

Even now, he is probably not important to the Wang family.

They have absolutely no connection to him, why would they want to kill him?
"That involves another grand scheme by the Wang family..."

Chen Yuntao spoke slowly, and Xie Lingxin stared at him for a long time, but didn't hear him continue.

"Alright, that's the gist of it. You've seen it for yourself. For the sake of the Guanyin Scroll, the Wang family is utterly reckless. Be careful in the future."

"?"

That damn riddle-maker...

Xie Lingxin gritted her teeth inwardly.

However, Chen Yuntao made it clear that he wouldn't say, and there was nothing he could do.

"What's there to be careful about?"

Xie Ling thought to herself, "With my small frame, if they really wanted to kill me, wouldn't it be an easy task? How could I possibly resist?"

"You've been hiding it well."

Chen Yuntao laughed and said, "If you can get that Grand Master to take action, even the Wang family will have to apologize to you obediently."

Xie Lingxin rolled her eyes. If the old Taoist priest could get out, what was he afraid of?
Chen Yuntao said, "Don't underestimate them. Although the ancient great masters are trapped in their grotto-heavens, if they wanted to, they could still inflict heavy damage on the aristocratic families, at least..."

"If your teacher were willing to venture into the Wang family's private domain, they would probably be in a panic."

"Private domain?"

Chen Yuntao laughed and said, "Do you really think that all the territories of the Federation are open to the public?"

"Which aristocratic family doesn't have some domain realms hidden away? If a domain realm is truly of great value, no one would be willing to share it unless absolutely necessary."

"That is one of their foundations and roots."

Xie Lingxin's eyes flickered.

Private domain?

If we could escape into the Wang family's territory, we'd lock the gates and let the old Taoist priest out...

Surely we can at least get some interest back?

Seeing his eyes darting around, Chen Yuntao guessed what he was thinking: "Don't overthink it. Which aristocratic family's private domain isn't a secret? How could they possibly let you know?"

That's not necessarily true...

I don't know, I can find it myself.

Just because others can't find it doesn't mean I can't...

Xie Lingxin secretly hardened her heart.

As long as he knows the Wang family's domain, even just a few words... he can find it!

Chen Yuntao continued, "Besides the matters concerning the Leng family and the Wang family, there is another matter I would like to discuss with you."

discuss?

Xie Lingxin suddenly became alert.

Chen Yuntao is too unpredictable.

Every time I thought I had seen through his true nature, I found that he was still unfathomable.

"I want you to join the Far Eastern Parliament."

"The Far Eastern Parliament?"

What is this thing?

Chen Yuntao said solemnly, "That is the true 'player' of Far East Star."

Although Xie Lingxin didn't know much about it, after thinking about it for a while, she could roughly guess what kind of organization it was.

Letting him into a place like this is tantamount to letting a small-town exam-taker directly enter a ministry, isn't it?
pull.

"Do you think someone like me could get in?"

Chen Yuntao laughed and said, "It was impossible before, but now... the Federation owes you a favor. If you can break in, I think those people won't hesitate to help you up."

Xie Lingxin pouted: "Putting aside whether it's possible or not, what would I do going in there?"

This Far Eastern Parliament is clearly a powerful and influential entity.

It's not that he has no interest in power, it's just that after practicing cultivation, his desire for it has indeed faded.

Chen Yuntao laughed and said, "This is your talisman. Once you enter the Far East Council, even the Wang family won't be able to attack you without any scruples. Don't you want to reconsider?"

"..."

"Enter!"

With her life at stake, Xie Lingxin didn't hesitate.

"But do you really have that much ability?"

"I don't have it, but you do."

Chen Yuntao said, "Don't leave Leizhou during this time. With me here, the Wang family can't touch you for the time being."

"I will let you know when the time is right."

"?"

Another riddle teller?
"And that girl from the Leng family is safe in the Chen family, so you don't need to worry about her or have any other thoughts."

Chen Yuntao stared at him, a warning look in his eyes.

"..."

It's like you're making it sound like Chen Jinxin and I actually have something going on... no, it's making it sound like Leng Qingci and I actually have something going on... no, that's not right either...

Grass!
Xie Lingxin didn't like playing with riddle tellers.

Especially riddle makers who tarnish their own reputation.

I originally wanted to leave, but then I remembered the previous turmoil, and that Chen Lingguan was also a chosen "benefactor".

Where is Chen Lingguan?

Chen Yuntao laughed and said, "You finally remembered your younger brother. Lingguan is alright. In fact, he benefited from this misfortune by gaining some of the Faceless Buddha's divine power."

"There are several others like him who have been noticed by the Federation and are being groomed for advancement,"

"A few days ago, we sent them to a region where Buddhism flourishes; perhaps they will have some good fortune there."

Is this okay?

Why didn't you call me?
Xie Lingxin muttered to herself.

He glanced at the fragment of the "Guanyin Precious Scroll" in Chen Yuntao's hand.

I'm a little envious.

However, Chen Yuntao just smiled and didn't respond to his comment, as if he hadn't seen his gaze.

It was obvious she didn't intend to show it to him.

mean!

……

Back to the old compound.

I received a lot of information all at once.

Xie Lingxin was thinking about the evolution of the domain and the use of the false to cultivate the true.

He recalled the inspiration the Dragon King had given him in the Dead Zone of the East Sea Dragon Palace.

Based on this, he comprehended the "Eastern Sea Dragon's Journey of Creation Map" and, based on his understanding of "Journey to the West", he also comprehended the "Fragment Map of Eastern Victory Divine Continent".

[Fragmentary Map of Dongsheng Shenzhou: 1.11%]

Using "Journey to the West" as its framework, and integrating "The Dragon's Journey to the East Sea" and "The Primordial Mysterious Water and Yin Thunder Diagram," the "Fragmentary Diagram of the Eastern Continent of Divine Victory" is obtained. Completing this diagram has profound implications for accumulating merit and averting calamities, serving as the foundation for becoming a saint, a Buddha, or an immortal.

The information obtained from this thing, within its unobstructed understanding of all laws, is as follows...

Accumulating merit and virtue, averting calamities, is the foundation for becoming a saint, a Buddha, or an immortal...

Could this be some kind of 'using the false to cultivate the true' practice?
