Chapter 194: “Great Calamity of the Buddhist Sect,” stars as tribute!
Facing Nalan Xingde’s clear gaze, Bai Ze’s face instantly drooped.
“I am a beast, you are a human, and you are also a pretentious scholar.”
“Do you think I can understand what you’re saying?”
“Most likely not.”
“Then say @#%#”
Just as some dirty words were spewed from Bai Ze’s mouth, a golden “shut up” character instantly suppressed Bai Ze’s lips.
Nalan Xingde smiled at Bai Ze and said,
“It’s not okay to speak profanities; you need to change this habit.”
“Be silent for three days, minor punishment, major warning.”
After saying that, Nalan Xingde left the academy with Bai Ze.
Regarding Nalan Xingde’s actions, Bai Ze did not resist much because it knew resistance was futile.
Twenty years ago, Bai Ze came here to seek refuge.
After the refuge ended, Bai Ze decided to stay here permanently.
The reason for staying wasn’t because it didn’t want to leave, but because it couldn’t leave.
…
Northern Desert.
“Chen Shisan, your talent is really too poor.”
“It took you three months just to barely open a spring source; you truly opened my eyes.”
Qian Baor er complained about Chen Shisan’s cultivation speed, while Chen Shisan enthusiastically felt the spiritual power within his body.
Only after thoroughly familiarizing himself with his own condition did Chen Shisan slowly speak.
“I’m already very happy to have entered the path of cultivation.”
“Because the teacher said that my talent in cultivation is very poor.”
Hearing this, Qian Baor rolled her eyes and said, “I’ve heard the teacher say this too, but I didn’t expect you to be so poor.”
“Since Emperor Huangtian created the ‘Sea of Suffering’ body system, there are no longer people who cannot cultivate.”
“How far one can go in cultivation depends on personal perseverance, opportunity, talent, and many other factors.”
“But I’ve never seen anyone as slow as you. With my resources supporting you, you actually took three whole months.”
Hearing Qian Baor’s words, Chen Shisan scratched his head uncomfortably.
“I’m really sorry, making you wait so long.”
“I will definitely…”
“Ah!”
Before Chen Shisan could finish his sentence, Qian Baor stopped him with her hand.
“If we are friends, don’t say that.”
“Wouldn’t that make me look down on you?”
“But repaying debts is a given, and friends shouldn’t take advantage of each other either.”
“That’s true, but I don’t want you to repay me anything.”
“I help you because you are my friend; this is a bond. If we measure it with money, wouldn’t it be tainted with greed?”
“Aren’t you aiming to become a powerful swordsman?”
“If one day you stand at the peak of the world’s swordsmanship, I want you to cut off a star for me as a gift.”
Hearing this, Chen Shisan’s face lit up with a bright smile, and he said,
“Alright, I will definitely cut off the brightest star in the sky for you as a gift.”
Facing Chen Shisan’s response, the three young people fell silent for a moment, then laughed happily.
From the central courtyard to the Northern Desert border, they had traveled for three months.
These three months were enough to make the three young men become friends.
Young people traveling together is one of the most beautiful things in the world.
At this time, no one would think about whether the promises made in the past were absurd.
At this moment, Tianxuan also spoke.
“You helped Chen Shisan open a spring source, and Chen Shisan picked a star as a return gift.”
“My recovery also consumed a lot of your medicinal pills; so, I wonder what I should offer as a return gift?”

Facing Tianxuan’s words, Qian Baor thought for a moment and said, “Then you can pick a star for me as a gift too!”
“Two stars can make a pair for earrings.”
“No problem!” Tianxuan smiled, “Chen Shisan picks the brightest one for you, so I’ll pick the second brightest one for you.”
“Then I’ll wait for your good news.”
“By the way, we have already entered the Northern Desert border, when will the teacher meet us?”
Hearing this, Tianxuan looked at the distance and said,
“Let’s walk a bit further; the teacher should meet us in the Buddhist Nation.”
“There seems to be something wrong with the Northern Desert Buddhist Nation, I don’t know if there will be any accidents.”
“What kind of accident? The Bodhi tree of the Northern Desert Buddhist Nation having problems isn’t our doing.”
“Besides, such matters are not something we can worry about.”
Listening to Qian Baor’s words, Tianxuan nodded and said, “That’s right, we are only going to meet the teacher; the conflicts in the Northern Desert have nothing to do with us.”
“Let’s hurry, we still have a long way to go to reach the Buddhist Nation.”
After saying that, the three young people set out on their journey again.
…
Buddhist Nation.
“Amitabha!”
A grand Buddha chant echoed in the Buddhist Nation, and a bald young monk stood outside it.
Facing such commotion, three monks flew out of the Buddhist Nation immediately.
“Amitabha!”
“We do not know why the master has come, what is the purpose?”
Hearing this, the young monk clasped his hands and said, “Our Buddhist sect will soon face a calamity, and I wish to assist in overcoming it.”
Upon hearing this, the three monks became excited.
“Is this statement true, master?”
“As a monk, I do not lie, and I have come this time with a solution.”
“In that case, please come in quickly.”
Speaking, the three monks warmly led “Jueyuan” into the Buddhist Nation.
“By the way, may I ask which temple the master practices in?”
“I practice in Shaolin Temple, my dharma name is Jueyuan.”
Upon hearing the name “Shaolin Temple,” the three people thought for a moment but found no relevant information.
However, the people of the Buddhist Nation did not care about this matter.
There are countless temples under the sky, even the Northern Desert Buddhist Nation would not dare claim to know them all.
No matter where this “Jueyuan” comes from, the Buddha light on him cannot be fake, nor can his powerful cultivation.
All the Buddhist sects under heaven are one family, and his existence ultimately strengthens the foundation of the Buddhist Nation.
…
“Master Jueyuan, this is the source of the Buddhist sect’s calamity.”
The monk of the Buddhist Nation led Jueyuan to an ancient tree.
On the ancient tree, a spear was firmly planted, causing the life force of the ancient tree to continuously wane.
After examining for a long time, Jueyuan sighed softly, “Emperor Huangtian’s methods are indeed impressive.”
“This spear completely stabilizes the lifeblood of the Buddhist Nation; to remove this spear, we need a chance.”
“What kind of chance?”
“Fate!”
Upon hearing this, the monks of the Buddhist Nation frowned.
“Fate has been carried by Emperor Huangtian, and moreover, Emperor Huangtian ascended early, where can we find fate?”
“Emperor Huangtian has indeed ascended, and his fate has long since broken.”
“Finding someone who holds fate can resolve the great calamity of the Buddhist sect.”
Hearing these words, everyone’s expressions became unnatural.
The breaking of fate is no small matter!
