Lin Chuan stopped and glanced back and forth between the Buddhist temple and the medicine garden.
"The Buddhist temple is in front, and the medicine garden is in the back. They are less than a mile apart. It should be the stronghold and logistics location of the Buddhist sect on the battlefield. The monks fight in the front, and the medicine garden is in the back to provide elixir supplies." He looked at the layer of glow in the direction of the medicine garden, "Look at the fragrance and aura of the medicine, spirit medicine inside has not been picked for a long time, and the medicine is probably very old."
"Millennium spirit medicine." Xu Ying said softly, with a rare wave in his tone. For a Alchemist, these four words carry more weight than any Law Artifact is all important. You must know that even if there are plenty of Heavenly South Domain in spirit medicine, there are very few spirit medicine that are thousands of years old. Most of them were spawned by Secret Method.
"Go to the Buddhist temple or the medicine garden first?" Du Heng's hand was already on the hilt of the sword, and his eyes fell in the direction of the medicine garden. The glow was indeed alluring.
"Go to the Buddhist temple first." Lin Chuan made the decision, "You can't escape the medicine garden there. Let's find out the situation ahead first. If there are any prohibition traps, we should be prepared."
Everyone walked down the hillside and soon arrived in front of the Buddhist temple.
Looking closer, the damage to the Buddhist temple is more serious than seen from a distance. About one-third of the outer wall has collapsed. The remaining walls are engraved with vague Sanskrit characters. The strokes have been weathered and broken, and only a few scattered Buddhist runes can be barely discerned.
The stone steps in front of the temple have been stepped into deep depressions, and dark red dust accumulates in the depressions. It can be seen that countless pairs of feet have passed in and out here in the past.
Qin Tiexin was walking in the front, and when he was still five steps away from the temple gate, a layer of pale golden light curtain lit up without any warning from between the ruins.
The light curtain is translucent, with Sanskrit characters slowly flowing on the surface, covering the entire Buddhist temple.
He stopped and stretched out his left fist to lightly touch the light curtain. The light curtain did not move at all. Instead, a golden ripple spread from the contact point to all directions, completely removing all the force on his fist.
"Banned!"
Liu Suifeng's eyes lit up, he put the array plate in his arms, rubbed his hands and walked forward, "It's finally my turn. Wait a moment, everyone, let me break it."
He squatted in front of the restraint and counted dots on the array plate with both hands. A circle of light cyan detection spiritual light spread from the array plate, covering the entire golden light curtain. A subtle hissing sound was made where the spiritual light came into contact with the light screen, and rows of runes began to flash quickly on his array plate.
After a moment, his brows furrowed.
"Huh? The underlying structure of this restriction is completely different from the current formation."
He moved his fingers quickly on the array plate, and sweat gradually appeared on his forehead, "The rune logic follows the Buddhist mantra system, which is nested with at least three layers of restrictions. The core forbidden pattern is on the third layer, and there is a spiritual loop between the two outer layers. If one layer is broken, the other layer will automatically Repair. You must cut off the loop first and then dismantle the three layers at the same time, otherwise it will be an endless loop."
He tried again for a moment, and finally stood up, looking a little ugly.
"I have never seen such a structure. The Buddhist restrictions of thousands of years ago are very different from today. I need at least three days to study it. If it is forcibly demolished, it may trigger self-destruction, and don't want the contents inside."
Du Heng patted him on the shoulder. "I'm not good at studying."
"What did you say?! You can do it!" Liu Suifeng slapped his hand away.
Du Heng is a real person. As soon as Liu Suifeng finished speaking, he actually drew his broad sword and stepped forward.
He raised the broad sword high above his head, and the khaki sword light solidified on the sword. Mysterious Gang Stone-Splitting Sword Instruction hit the golden light screen with all his strength. He didn't believe how much protection the thousand-year restriction could have?
"Don't--" Before Lin Chuan could stop him, Du Heng had already struck the restriction with his sword.
There was a muffled sound, and the light screen did not move at all, but Du Heng seemed to have been hit head-on by some Great Strength. He and his sword flew back three or four feet, hit the ground hard, and slid far away before stopping. The sword dragged a half-foot deep groove on the ground, and the right hand holding the sword trembled slightly. Fortunately, he only used 50% of his strength and was ready to retreat at any time, otherwise he would be easily injured this time.
Liu Suifeng laughed loudly, and the laughter echoed several times in the empty valley.
"That's enough." Lin Chuan stopped drinking and wanted to stand up and try again. Du Heng turned to look at Qin Tiexin. "Senior Brother Ming, is there anything you can do? This is a Buddhist restriction after all. You are a monk, so you should be more familiar with these than us."
Qin Tiexin did not answer immediately. Although he was not a real Buddhist, he still had to pretend.
He walked around the Buddhist temple, his steps slow, and the fingertips of his left hand brushed against the vague Sanskrit carvings on the stone wall, feeling rough and cold to the touch.
The Buddhist temple is not big. Judging from the area, it can accommodate at most a dozen people. It is not like a Zen hall or a Buddhist scriptures pavilion, but more like some kind of Alchemy Chamber.
He stopped in front of a relatively intact Sanskrit inscription on the back wall, pressed it with his palm, and shook his head after sensing it for a moment. Whether it was Buddhism or restriction, he knew almost nothing about it, and this restriction had no special reaction to him. If he was asked to deal with it, he had no better way than Du Heng.
After going around in a circle, he called Liu Suifeng over, pointed at the restriction and asked, "Can you tell what type of restriction this restriction belongs to?"
Liu Suifeng squatted down again, and the array disk lit up again. After a while, he raised his head. "I can only see that this is a protection and screening restriction, not like a killing array. However, I can't judge the screening mechanism. It may require some kind of Buddhist token, or it may be a specific spiritual power or aptitude fluctuation. This thing is too Elder Gu. My array disk can only judge the structure, but cannot analyze the specific conditions."
Protective screening type. Qin Tiexin was silent for a moment. Since it is a screening type, there are only two ways to break the ban: one is to pass the conditions it originally set and walk in openly; the other is to find something that can override its screening logic and make it mistakenly think that the conditions have been met.
"I'll give it a try, poor monk."
He slammed the iron rod on the ground and told everyone to step back.
The platinum cyclone at the bottom of the spiritual liquid pool in Dantian began to rotate in the opposite direction, and a stream of spiritual power surged out of the spiritual liquid pool and poured into the left arm along the meridians.
He clenched his left fist, and Arhat Fist's golden energy began to condense on the fist. As the spiritual power continued to pour out, the golden energy continued to expand on the fist, condensing into an Arhat's face that was larger than his whole body. The cinnabar mole on the center of Arhat's eyebrow was as red as blood, and the golden fist force forced the surrounding Spiritual Qi to separate to both sides.
With a punch, Arhat's head was wrapped in a violent fist and hit the golden light curtain hard.
The Sanskrit characters on the light screen all lit up at the moment of contact, emitting a more dazzling golden light than when Du Heng was chopped up before. But then, the light screen did not rebound, but seemed to be stirred from the inside, and the golden light began to flicker violently. On the remaining murals in the hall, a statue of Buddha sitting on a lotus platform shimmered slightly, and the surrounding Arhat statues also lit up with a faint golden light.
After the light curtain flickered for several breaths, it finally shattered into pieces like a piece of broken glass, turning into golden debris that filled the sky and dissipated in the air.
Liu Suifeng opened his mouth, looked at Qin Tiexin's retracted left fist, and then looked at Du Heng's broad sword that was still stuck on the ground.
"So, did the master have enough strength to smash it directly, or was it opened after being sensed by Buddhist martial arts?"
