The sudden Buddha light brought both groups on Su Xin's side to a halt. An old monk stood in the center, dressed in moon-white monk's robes yet with a full head of hair. His palms were pressed together, and amid the spreading Buddha light, he unconsciously gave off a tranquil, peaceful air.
Su Xin's expression turned grave. He had encountered quite a few Divine Bridge Realm experts, whether Ksitigarbha or Li Boyang, known as the number one man under heaven, yet both were still slightly inferior to the monk before him.
It could even be said that this man was the most terrifying martial artist Su Xin had ever seen!
The others present were likewise aghast. Shaolin Temple actually had a powerhouse of this caliber hidden within it?
Of course, those who still had their wits about them would not believe that this expert belonged to Shaolin Temple.
The reason was simple. If Shaolin Temple had such an expert, Zaohua Taoist School would probably have been wiped out long ago. Would Shaolin Temple have allowed the Taoist sects to suppress it for so long?
At that moment, a possibility suddenly flashed through Su Xin's mind. He said solemnly, "Lotus Zen Monastery?"
Of the Three Buddhist Temples—Shaolin Temple, the Esoteric Sect's Vajra Temple, and Lotus Zen Monastery—the latter had secluded itself in hidden cultivation and had not shown itself for centuries!
The white-robed old monk nodded. "This old monk is Shi Daoxuan, currently the abbot of Lotus Zen Monastery. Greetings, everyone."
The moment those words fell, everyone present sucked in a cold breath. Lotus Zen Monastery—it truly was Lotus Zen Monastery!
Now even Lotus Zen Monastery, one of the Three Buddhist Temples, had emerged into the world. This chaotic age in the Jianghu was about to grow even more chaotic.
