Chapter 358: Disciples of Buddha in the Distant Ancient Times

Shanyuan was defeated very quickly and cleanly.

In front of the public, with hundreds of eyes looking forward to a fierce battle, Zhou Heng defeated Shanyuan monk with just one move.

There was no back-and-forth fight, no surge of heaven and earth energy, and no colorful light. The various strange phenomena that were rumored to occur when a third-grade warrior took action did not appear.

The whole process was that Zhou Heng made a seal in his hand, and golden light flashed in his eyes. Then, Shanyuan monk's face showed a painful and horrified expression, and he soon knelt on the ground, sweating profusely.

Such a situation has completely exceeded the cognition of many pilgrims.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed that Master Shanyuan, who has always been a martial arts master, who can fly into the sky and hide in the ground, and enter and exit the blue sky, would be defeated so easily.

Incredible!

At this time, Zhou Heng stood there, smiling, calm and composed.

"How is it possible? How is it possible?" Shanyuan monk supported the ground with both hands, muttered in his mouth, and shouted in a low voice with gritted teeth: "This is impossible!"

The many pilgrims watching the scene also talked about it.

"What's going on? I don't understand it?"

"Just now, this young man seemed to have just looked at Master Shanyuan and defeated him?"

"What kind of martial arts is this? I have never heard of it. Could this young man be the legendary peerless master who can rejuvenate?"

"What's the situation?"

Most of the pilgrims are ordinary people. Even if there are a few who have practiced martial arts, they are only ninth-grade or even not graded. They have limited knowledge and can't understand the state of Shanyuan monk at all.

"Master?!" The shouting of Tongzhen monk came. He had just rushed over from outside Jinguang Temple, but he didn't expect to see such an incredible scene when he came here.

"Master, Master, you, what's wrong with you?" Tongzhen monk rushed directly to Shanyuan monk and wanted to help him up.

However, no matter how hard Shanyuan monk tried, he just knelt on the ground like a mountain, and even if Tongzhen monk used all his strength, he couldn't make him move at all.

"You don't need to help him." Zhou Heng said lightly: "He was suppressed by himself. Unless he can overcome his inner fear, he will kneel here forever."

"What evil method did you use?!" Tongzhen monk glared at Zhou Heng.

"Then you try it too." Zhou Heng's eyes flashed with golden light.

The extremely powerful spiritual power instantly penetrated Tongzhen monk's soul barrier, evoking the most fearful and unbearable memories in his heart.

Changing Heaven and Earth Great Method!

Plop!

Tongzhen monk also knelt on the ground, his face pale, cold sweat dripping, his whole body trembling, this appearance is even more miserable than Shanyuan monk next to him.

The apprentices and teachers of the Jinguang Temple martial arts hall who were present were all shocked when they saw this scene. They suddenly woke up and turned around and ran away without even looking back.

After a while, all the apprentices and even teachers in the Jinguang Temple martial arts hall left.

"Too weak, boring." Zhou Heng shook his head, turned and smiled at Cheng Jiangjian, "Let's go, we should go to the next one."

"I'll lead the way for you." Cheng Jiangjian smiled and walked in front with the red horse.

These pilgrims in the Jinguang Temple looked at the backs of Zhou Heng and Cheng Jiangjian leaving, and then looked at the surrounding environment and the magnificent hall in front, and couldn't help but fall into deep self-doubt.

The rumored Jiaye Temple, one of the top martial arts sects in Dajin, doesn't seem to be that powerful.

The master Shanyuan, who used to be high above, was easily defeated by a teenager who came out of nowhere.

And the other party didn't even move his hands, just a glance, and Shanyuan was defeated!

This gap is too big.

So the pilgrims booed and dispersed, deciding not to come to Jinguang Temple to worship Buddha again.

The apprentices looked at each other, they wanted to leave with the pilgrims, but they were reluctant.

After all, they paid for martial arts training, and it would be a big loss if they just left.

But seeing the monk Shanyuan, whom they usually worshipped as a god, kneeling in such distress, they still felt that they had lost out. After thinking about it, they decided to go home first, out of sight, out of mind.

After a while, the huge Jinguang Temple became empty.

Only the monks Shanyuan and Tongzhen were left kneeling on the ground trembling all over.

…

The sun was approaching the zenith, and it was noon.

The expression on the monk Shanyuan's face finally eased gradually, and he slowly raised his head and stood up, but there was still a strong sense of fear in his eyes.

He glanced at Monk Tongzhen who was kneeling beside him, his face turned gloomy, raised his hand and pointed, golden light flashed, calming Monk Tongzhen's emotions and calming him down.

"What a Zhou Heng, what a powerful reincarnation!" Monk Shanyuan gritted his teeth, his face full of resentment.

"Master, what happened just now?" Although Monk Tongzhen managed to calm down, he felt that his mind was a mess, and the things that happened before made his memory very confused.

"Shut up!" Monk Shanyuan glared at Monk Tongzhen and said in a deep voice: "Announce the closure of the temple!"

"Ah?" Monk Tongzhen was still a little confused, and asked in confusion: "Close, close the temple?"

"Go!" Monk Shanyuan was extremely irritable.

...

For Zhou Heng now, warriors below the fifth rank of the sect are not a threat at all.

Therefore, after leaving the Jinguang Temple, he and Cheng Jiangjian continued to go to the next martial arts hall set up by the Jiaye Temple in Yujiang City.

It was almost a repeat of the situation in the Jinguang Temple.

Without any effort.

In just half a day, Zhou Heng defeated all the forces related to the Jiaye Temple in the entire Yujiang City, causing the reputation of the Jiaye Temple in Yujiang Prefecture to plummet.

This incident caused a storm in the entire Yujiang Prefecture.

Jiaye Temple is the top martial arts sect in Dajin, and it is one of the three ancient Buddhist temples. It was actually defeated by two young men and women who came from nowhere.

It was incredible.

For a time, discussions about Zhou Heng and Cheng Jiangjian were rampant, and many people were speculating about their identities.

In the restaurant room.

Cheng Jiangjian held an invitation in his hand with a strange expression on his face. He looked at Zhou Heng who was sitting opposite him and chuckled, "Guess who sent the invitation?"

"Yujiang Ning's?" Zhou Heng smiled and said, "It can only be this family."

"Yes, that's right." Cheng Jiangjian nodded and said, "It's an invitation from the Ning family. They said that they will hold a banquet at home tonight and invite the two of us to attend the banquet. They said that they have important matters to discuss."

"Oh?" Zhou Heng smiled and said, "Didn't Ning Zeyu avoid you before?"

"Maybe he changed his mind." Cheng Jiangjian smiled and put a cup of milk in his mouth "It may be that after learning about what we did, she has some other plans."

"It may be related to the Yao Palace Hundred Palaces Map." Zhou Heng smiled and said, "After all, she is called the Yao Palace Goddess."

"Yeah, I think so too." Cheng Jiangjian nodded and said, "I heard that when Ning Zeyu was born, there were Yao Palace pavilions in the sky, and she was named the Yao Palace Goddess after she became famous."

"Born with strange visions?" Zhou Heng was a little surprised when he heard this, and smiled and said, "Then I am a little curious about this Yao Palace Goddess."

"Curious?" Cheng Jiangjian suddenly grabbed a handful of candy and swallowed it.

"Maybe she is also the reincarnation of a great man?" Zhou Heng smiled.

...

The Ning family is the largest and most powerful family in Yujiang Prefecture.

The rise of this family is legendary.

Thirty years ago, the Ning family was just an ordinary family in Yujiang Prefecture. Although they were running a business and had a lot of wealth, they could not be compared with the real big families.

A family with a secret sixth-grade warrior in a prefecture is called a big family.

The Ning family only had two seventh-rank warriors, both of whom were in their sixties and seventies and were about to die. Most of the new generation was uneducated and had no skills, so even inheriting the family business became a problem.

At that time, many people were staring at the Ning family, wanting to wait for the two old seventh-rank warriors to die and divide up the Ning family's property.

However, all this changed after Ning Zeyu was born.

It is said that when Ning Zeyu was born, the shadows of pavilions and towers appeared and disappeared in the sky, and the sky above the Ning family was lit up with white light, which was earth-shaking.

When the midwife took her out of the womb, she found that she was actually holding a piece of jade in her hand.

However, many local people in Yujiang Prefecture said that this was just a rumor and that it was not true at all. But anyway, everything in the Ning family began to change from then on.

First, the two old seventh-rank warriors broke through to the secret sixth-rank, their strength increased greatly, and their lifespan increased greatly, and they pushed the Ning family to the ranks of the top families in Yujiang Prefecture.

Afterwards, the Ning family's business became more and more prosperous. No matter what industry they were involved in, they could basically make money smoothly. Although they almost never made a lot of money, as the number of industries involved increased, the Ning family's income was also extremely high.

The achievements in martial arts, coupled with the thriving business, the Ning family's rapid development and strength aroused the fear of several other families, and they were ready to join forces to deal with the Ning family.

However, before the plans of these families were implemented, the Ning family spread the news that Ning Zeyu, who was only 26 years old, had cultivated true qi through internal and external communication and stepped into the realm of the secret sixth grade.

Secret sixth grade at the age of 26!

Not to mention in a small place like Yujiang Prefecture that is not even a big city, even in the world's top martial arts sects, such an achievement can be called a genius.

This made all those who were still planning to attack the Ning family give up.

It was from that time that the Ning family truly became the most powerful family in Yujiang Prefecture.

No one else.

There is no doubt that Ning Zeyu is the real core of the Ning family, and her will is often the will of the Ning family.

Now that the Ning family has sent an invitation, it means that Ning Zeyu's thoughts have changed.

...

The Ning family attaches great importance to the arrival of Zhou Heng and Cheng Jiangjian, and directly sent people to Yujiang Inn to welcome them, and their attitude is also very respectful.

However, this makes the two of them feel confused.

Ning Zeyu is too bold.

Now the two of them have just defeated all the martial arts halls of Jiaye Temple in Yujiang Prefecture, and it can be said that they have already forged a grudge with this top martial arts sect.

In this case, anyone who blatantly approaches the two of them may suffer the wrath of Jiaye Temple.

Originally, Zhou Heng and Cheng Jiangjian thought that Ning Zeyu would at most secretly send someone to pick them up, but they didn't expect it to be so ostentatious, and he was not afraid of being discovered by the people of Jiaye Temple.

"It's a bit strange." Cheng Jiangjian looked at Zhou Heng and said in a deep voice: "Could it be that Ning Zeyu has other intentions?"

"No, this is very interesting." Zhou Heng said with a smile: "This Ning Zeyu should not be a fool, but she still did this, which makes me even more curious."

…

Ning Mansion's "Intimate Hall".

This is a hall in the backyard of Ning Mansion. It is very gorgeously built and is a place specially used by Ning Zeyu to receive distinguished guests.

As soon as Zhou Heng and Cheng Jiangjian arrived, they were brought here by the Ning family.

Ning Zeyu is a beautiful woman who looks to be in her twenties. She wears a refreshing white dress, has delicate features, and a bit of heroic eyebrows. Her whole person has a charm of floating in the clouds.

It seems that there are some subtle similarities with Cheng Jiangjian's temperament.

"Mr. Zhou, Miss Cheng." Ning Zeyu bowed her hands and said with a smile, "I've been waiting for you for a long time. Please take a seat."

With that said, she took the initiative to pour a cup of tea for Zhou Heng and Cheng Jiangjian.

His attitude is still relatively humble.

"Miss Ning, what do you have to say?" Zhou Heng said straight to the point without beating around the bush, "Why don't you speak frankly?"

"You were closed to me before, why have you suddenly changed your mind now?" Cheng Jiangjian also asked directly.

"For the Yao Palace Hundred Palaces Map." Ning Zeyu said simply and straightforwardly: "I can sense that there are at least six grandmasters who came to explore the Yao Palace Hundred Palaces Map this time. I am not a match yet."

"So you want to ask us to be your helpers?" Zhou Heng said with a smile.

"That's right." Ning Zeyu nodded and said, "You have continuously defeated the martial arts hall of Kayaba Temple, allowing me to see your strength."

"Then you are not afraid of offending Kasyapa Temple?" Cheng Jiangjian said in a deep voice.

"If this trip is successful, I will not be afraid of Kayaba Temple." Ning Zeyu said with a serious expression: "Besides, if Kayaba Temple really wants to deal with my Ning family, isn't it just following Miss Cheng's wishes?"

"No, I will defeat you personally." Cheng Jiangjian shook his head.

"Really?" Ning Zeyu shook his head and smiled: "I'm afraid you won't have this chance... Hmm!!"

Before she finished speaking, her face suddenly turned pale and she looked at Zhou Heng in disbelief, only to see him holding the magic formula with his right hand and looking at her with an unkind look.

"Miss Ning, do you still remember that you invited us here?" Zhou Heng said lightly. Just now he used the secret method of the soul to attack Ning Zeyu's soul.

"Why don't you fight with me first?" Cheng Jiangjian raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "If we don't explain clearly, it will be difficult for us to cooperate. Why are you not afraid of Kasyapa Temple?"

Ning Zeyu's words just now were too vague.

"..." Ning Zeyu was silent for a moment after hearing this. Finally, he seemed to have made up his mind and said in a deep voice: "Do you know the true origin of the name of Kasyapa Temple?"

Without waiting for the two of them to speak, she continued: "It is said that in the distant ancient times that cannot be tested, there was an ancestor of all Buddhas. He had ten disciples, one of whom was named 'Kasyapa'."
