Somewhere in the Grotto-Heaven.

True Person Jixuan found a clean pond, looked around but saw no one, and threw a lotus seed into the pond.

As the lotus seed fell to the bottom of the pond, a mantra slowly materialized on it, emitting a faint golden Buddhist light.

In an instant, it takes root; in a single thought, it blossoms.

Five monks, dressed in their robes and surrounded by floating Glazed Glass dust, emerged from the lotus. They were solemn and their robes shone with golden light.

The leader, who had two eyes with six pupils, chanted a Buddhist mantra. His rosary, made of agate and other precious stones, swayed slightly, radiating a metallic light. He bowed to True Person Jixuan and said, " Jingxu greets True Person Jixuan."

The four Buddhist monks behind him were also chanting Buddhist mantras, but they remained silent, their eyes lowered, and they were dressed in gold and silver, extremely luxurious, and their aura was not weak either.

Jixuan showed no kindness to the group of Buddhist cultivators, coldly stating, "What your Lotus Temple requested has already been done by my Blazing Mystery Sect. The rest has nothing to do with me Jixuan, or my Arrayed Mystery Sect."

Farewell.

Having said that, True Person Jixuan leaped into the air and landed in a purple-gold carriage. The two thunder horses in front of the carriage neighed twice and pulled the carriage away, leaving the place behind.

The six pupils in the eyes of the leading Jingxu watched True Person Jixuan depart. Of the two Buddhist cultivators behind him, one sneered, revealing his slightly elongated face. Looking at the rolling purple light, he mocked:

"Daring to do it but not daring to admit it... tsk tsk, does it even deserve to be called a legitimate sect of immortals?"

"Just a bunch of petty people."

Jingxu remained silent, only saying calmly, "Enough said. The temple went to great lengths to persuade the Arrayed Mystery Sect to send us in; they absolutely must take that thing with them!"

Time waits for no one, let's get going!

Despite their disdain for True Person Jixuan, the four Buddhist cultivators behaved quite obediently towards Jingxu, readily agreeing before transforming into a Glazed Glass light and drifting into the clouds.

Chen Shuangbai was unaware of any of this.

Or perhaps, he is not Nascent Soul, and this place is not Grotto-Heaven of the Jade Spring Sect, so how could he know so much?

At this moment, the Far-Reaching Luminous Sword Immortal had arrived outside a stone formation.

The sword immortal dispersed his sword rainbow and landed outside the stone formation. He saw two huge black pillars standing in front of the formation, their bodies as white as jade, with many true words floating on them. It was clear that even after many years, this cave Grotto-Heaven was buried deep in the ground of South Splendor Mountain, connected to the earth's veins and absorbing spiritual energy. These black pillars still retained many mysteries.

He looked up and saw two lines of large characters with gold and silver strokes written on the sides of the pillar.

The left side is--

The dense stone array holds profound truths.

The right side is--

The lamp of the heart shines brightly, illuminating the mysteries within.

Even after countless years, Chen Shuangbai could still perceive the profound cultivation of the writer and his extraordinary Divine Sense from these two lines of large characters.

Changming stared with his big eyes for a moment, then felt a sharp pain in his eyes and knew he shouldn't look any longer.

He asked, "Does the lord intend to break through this stone formation?"

Chen Shuangbai nodded and said, "Before entering, True Person Mei showed me the notes left behind by several senior Grotto-Heaven members who had entered this cave, and one of them mentioned this stone formation."

"It is said that this place is called the [ Thousand Illusions Wondrous Forms Nine Bends Stone Formation ]. It is very likely that the True Net Cult set it up to hone the Divine Sense of its disciples. It has as many as thirty-six transformations. Only those with strong Divine Sense Divine Sense penetrate into it and unravel these thirty-six transformations in order to obtain the fortuitous opportunity within the array."

Feiguang thought for a moment, his eyes darting around slightly, and said, "Then it seems that the elders of the sect must have some guesses about the fortuitous opportunity within the formation?"

Chen Shuangbai nodded slightly, but offered no further explanation.

He couldn't really explain it clearly, and the notes weren't particularly clear either.

However, Chen Shuangbai is currently lacking a more profound fortuitous opportunity to hone his Divine Sense... If it were Divine Sense honing Secret Method or visualization diagram from this great sect, then he would have struck gold.

"Come in, all of you!"

Chen Shuangbai sleeve, and Mingguang within it. He then took Feiguang and Changming into his sleeve, and soared into the light, crashing headlong into the hazy blue light barrier between the two black pillars, thus entering the stone formation.

Shortly after he entered the stone formation, the colorful clouds in the distance parted, and five Buddhist cultivators, shrouded in the light of Glazed Glass gold powder, arrived one after another, landing in front of the Xuan Pillar and looking up at the same scene.

" Jingxu, is this the place?"

Jingxu nodded slightly, and the six pupils in his eyes moved to look at the two Xuan Pillars. Sure enough, he found many mantras unique to Buddhism among these mantras, which proved that the five of them had found the right one.

Behind Jingxu, a Buddhist monk wearing a jeweled crown suddenly spoke, saying with a touch of emotion, "For so many years, the most precious treasure of my Lotus Temple has finally seen the light of day again and returned to the embrace of Buddha!"

The other three also chanted Buddhist mantras and repeatedly agreed.

Jingxu didn't say much, but stared intently at the two mysterious pillars and the vast stone array behind them, thinking to himself, "According to what the elder of the temple said, the ancient Buddhist treasure that fell into the True Net Cult should be here."

This is a highly confidential rumor.

Buddhism only began to emerge during the era when True Net Cult flourished.

In an attempt to survive against this powerful religion that spanned multiple countries, a Buddhism monk made a bet with a Nascent Soul from the True Net Cult; the specifics of the bet are now unknown.

All that Lotus Temple knew was that the virtuous monk lost the bet and, true to his word, gave an ancient Buddhist treasure to the True Net Cult, which then used it in this stone formation.

The entire Celebrated Splendor Continent is currently going through a turbulent period.

There have been unusual movements in various branches of Lotus Temple, especially under the oppression of the Compassionate Chan Way, a heretical Outer Dao of Buddhism. Lotus Temple has been having a very difficult time in recent years and urgently needs such an ancient Buddhist treasure to strengthen the foundation of the Buddhist Alliance.

Therefore, even though the Arrayed Mystery Sect demanded an exorbitant price, the Lotus Temple was still willing to pay a considerable sum in order to send the person in and retrieve the item.

The five Buddhist monks paused briefly outside the formation before entering it together.

Within a dozen or so breaths of them entering.

Another streak of blood-red light flew in from outside.

As the bloody light dissipated, Zhao Buyan of the Parting Hate Gate emerged, followed by two fellow disciples. He looked up at the two mystical pillars, scoffed, and said, "Playing tricks."

He immediately plunged into the stone formation.

Inside the stone formation.

Chen Shuangbai looked up and around.

One after another, stone pillars, resembling ancient trees, rose from the ground and stood amidst the hazy clouds.

Each stone pillar is covered with various patterns and densely packed runes and incantations, which occasionally flash with a dim light, as if countless eyes are watching everything that enters this formation.
