Chapter 463 I earn 15 yuan by refining pills (no CP)
However, the elders had watched Zi grow up and understood how talented this child was in practicing Buddhism. They could not bear the consequences, so they united to protect him and imprisoned him in a barrier.
He thought of releasing him after everything was over. By that time, the situation would have been set and he, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, would not be able to change anything.
But they underestimated Zi Zeng's methods. Just as Chu Yuan discovered, he pretended to be unconscious, but in fact he was consuming the power of the barrier day by day. In this way, the power accumulated over time and he finally escaped one day.
However, after this incident, Zi Zeng learned his lesson and realized that no one in the Wanfo Sect could be trusted, so he still pretended to be trapped during the day and only went out to gather information at night when the guards were lax.
It was also at this time that he discovered an incredible secret.
The Sky-Stealing Formation was completed, but his master did not seem to use the spiritual energy gathered in it for cultivation. Instead, he used the formation as a medium to connect to the land outside the sky.
Zi Zeng clearly saw that his master, Monk Zhiyuan, was bowing and paying homage to a soul, and his attitude was respectful and did not seem fake.
And this soul didn't seem to be from this world, because Zi Zeng didn't sense any spiritual energy from him, but rather another form of cultivation.
Just as he was about to investigate carefully, the soul discovered his presence: "Who's there!?"
Fortunately, Zi Zeng ran fast, and in the eyes of everyone, he should have been imprisoned in the barrier, so he was subconsciously ignored during the search, allowing him to escape.
After this, he acted more carefully, and as time went on, more and more secrets within the sect were revealed to him.
First, the master disappeared for a while for no reason, and then the great elder gathered people in the sect to go to a place called Yunding City to look for the secret treasure.
If the news of the appearance of a secret treasure were to spread, it would surely cause competition among various forces. There would be no such calm situation as it is now. Judging from the Great Elder's style of doing things, it doesn't seem like he is going treasure hunting, but rather stealing.
Their Wanfo Sect has always acted in an upright manner. Such actions would undermine the dignity of Buddhism. Although Zi Zeng was furious, he was powerless to stop it.
Fortunately, after about a month, the people that the Great Elder took out came back intact. Judging from their appearance, the purpose of this trip should not have been achieved.
Chu Yuan knew what happened next. After the Great Elder led people to search for treasure in vain, Liu Qinghuan just happened to send a message saying that the destined person had been found and would go to the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect soon.
So they had to speed up, which gave Zi Zeng an opportunity to take advantage.
It was indeed because of him that Monk Zhiyuan was seriously injured, but Zi Zeng's concept of respecting teachers was already engraved in his bones. He only thought about stopping them from making a big mistake and never thought of killing his teacher to prove his teachings.
Therefore, Monk Zhiyuan’s serious injury was most likely caused by the backlash of the formation, and Zi Zeng only played the role of a fuse.
After figuring out the whole story, Chu Yuan put Zi Zeng's spirit back into his body, reinforced the seal on him, and put some incense to make him faint: "In order to prevent you from doing bad things impulsively, you should get some sleep for a while."
Chu Yuan still admired Zi Zeng's character very much. Just for the sake of his character of being in the mud and not getting involved in corruption, he is worthy of admiration.
But putting this aside, his habit of keeping half of what he said is still very irritating, and Chu Yuan is somewhat dissatisfied with his way of handling problems.
After knowing this secret that concerns the safety of people all over the world, the first thing he thought of was not to expose the matter and seek help from fellow practitioners in the world of immortal cultivation, but to conduct an in-depth investigation on his own. If he was not careful, his whereabouts would be discovered, wouldn't that make it impossible for this matter to be made public?
Therefore, Chu Yuan would never dare to let such a person participate in his plan.
After reading Zi Zeng's memory, Chu Yuan gradually pieced together the whole picture of the matter. The reason why Monk Zhiyuan set up the Heaven-stealing Formation was to contact foreign tribes, and it is very likely that they were people from the fairy world.
And this person must have promised him some kind of benefit in order to get the box that originally sealed Changxun.
This also matched Zi Zeng's memory, that the Grand Elder of the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect once led people out to look for some secret treasure, but returned empty-handed.
Later, the news from Liu Qinghuan let them know that the box was already in her hands and that she would be coming to the Wanfo Sect soon, so Monk Zhiyuan had to make preparations early and activated the formation to contact the people from outside the world.
This scene happened to be witnessed by Zi Zeng who slipped out of the seal. In order to stop this conspiracy, he took action against his master whom he had always respected.
Of course, with Zi Zeng's cultivation level, he definitely couldn't hurt Monk Zhiyuan. However, it was already a stretch for him to activate the Heaven-stealing Array with his Jindan cultivation level. After his mind was disturbed by Zi Zeng's attack, Monk Zhiyuan suffered the backlash of the array and was seriously injured.
However, now that the formation has been completed, it needs to be continuously nourished with spiritual power every day. The spiritual energy in this world is thin, so someone is needed to transport their own spiritual power into the formation. This important task naturally falls on the shoulders of the elders of the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect.
This is also the reason why Chu Yuan always feels that everyone in this sect acts in a sneaky way.
Now that we already know the key to the matter, if we want to stop Monk Zhiyuan's plan, the first priority is to destroy the formation.
So after leaving this strange space, Chu Yuan immediately searched for the location of the formation in the back mountain. Unlike yesterday's aimless search, this time she went straight to the point and soon found the location of the Sky-Stealing Formation.
Looking at the formation in front of him that was supported by huge spiritual energy, Chu Yuan couldn't help but sneer.
It really is...full of loopholes.
The great formation built by the combined strength of the entire sect turned out to be such a shabby thing? It was really a stretch to be able to connect to the outer world like this.
Although Chu Yuan had never seen the real Heaven-Stealing Formation, she knew that it should not look like this. Not to mention the problems in the deduction of the formation, just the spiritual patches here and there were something she had never seen before in her life.
No wonder in Zi Zeng’s memory, this formation needed a huge amount of spiritual energy as its support. It turns out that it was all used for this.
Just when Chu Yuan was about to activate this formation to try to see where these so-called outsiders came from, two Buddhist monks in cassocks arrived.
"I don't know when this day of having to use my own spiritual power to replenish the formation will end. If this continues, my cultivation will regress."
The Buddhist cultivator next to him also had a worried look on his face: "Who said it wasn't true? Now we can only hope that the Sect Master wakes up soon."
"When the sect master can wake up depends on that person's will. He is a powerful person who transcends the secular world. With just a flick of his finger, those injuries that are fatal to us can be restored to their original state."
