Zhao Gongming Chanced Upon Wen Zhong

[The host is rewarded with Three Scriptures of the Divine School: the Laṅkāvatāra Sūtra, the Diamond Sūtra, and the Vimalakīrti Sūtra.]

[Note: Taking the non-existence of delusion as its aim, the five dharmas, three natures, eight consciousnesses, and two kinds of non-self as its teachings, self-awakened holy wisdom as its essence, and refuting heresies and erroneous views as its function, it is the practice of Mahayana Yogacara.]

[It propagates Mahayana Buddhadharma, elucidates the principle of non-self in all phenomena, and is incomparably profound; it is a culmination of Buddhist teachings!]

[When you're bored, take a look; you'll definitely benefit greatly.]

[In addition, the system rewards the host with profound Buddhist understanding and a Buddha-like temperament (Note: Any Buddhist practitioner who sees the host will trigger this temperament and regard the host as a true Buddha!)]

[Rewards distributed]

[Please keep a diary regularly, and the system's rewards will increase in the future.]

The system's voice faded.

A beam of golden light suddenly shot out from the void.

Following the space between Lin Xuanzhen's eyebrows, the energy was directly injected into his primordial spirit.

The next moment.

On Lin Tian's body.

A terrifying light suddenly burst forth.

Even through his clothes, you could see Lin Tian's chest and facial features, with a golden luster trembling and rotating within them!

Incredibly dazzling.

In just a few breaths.

It instantly enveloped the entire room.

A terrifying aura permeated the room.

It seemed to want to break free from the constraints of the room, and to vibrate towards the void.

But.

The courtyard where Lin Tian was located was provided by the system.

There were array formations around them that were beyond the comprehension of the Great Dao.

Although the golden light was incredibly powerful.

It cannot be released!

"What's going on!?"

"Could this be the system's reward from earlier?"

Lin Tian did not feel that the power in his primordial spirit was anything strange.

It's actually warm and cozy, quite comfortable.

"Call!"

Lin Tian let out a long breath.

In the blink of an eye.

The strange phenomena in the room then disappeared.

Snap!

A loud bang was heard.

Before Lin Tian lay an old, even somewhat worn, book.

The surface of the books has a waxy yellow color.

Above it were four golden characters for "Tao".

The Three Scriptures of the Divine School.

Lin Tian stared at the thick stack of scriptures in front of him, feeling utterly overwhelmed.

"..."

"System, what are you up to? Are you trying to make me a monk?"

Why are you giving me Buddhist scriptures?

What use would I have for Buddhist scriptures?

"Please, can't you give me something decent?"

"Why do they have to give me something I don't need?!"

[Host, you'll find this useful.]

Lin Tian curled his lip and cursed, "Use my ass! I'd rather sleep than read this Buddhist scripture!"

"Besides, I am an Eastern cultivator, why would I read Buddhist scriptures?"

[It can guide those with affinity and improve one's cultivation level]

"I can improve Laozi cultivation level just by lying down, without needing Buddhist scriptures."

"Besides, doesn't Buddha only guide the rich? How can he guide those with affinity?"

System:[...]

"Could you change the reward?"

"I don't want Buddhist scriptures."

[There are less than seven hours until tomorrow. The host can write in the diary tomorrow to receive a new reward.]

"Get lost! You damn system!"

"These rewards you gave me are completely useless; who's going to write in their diary tomorrow!"

"Laozi 'm not writing anymore."

"If you don't give me some proper gift soon, you might as well find a new host."

[...]

[Host, please don't act impulsively]

"I wasn't acting impulsively! Unless you give me an explanation right now."

"Otherwise, I'll just stop Laozi altogether! What can you do about Laozi?"

Lin Tian cursed and muttered, then simply gave up.

Oh shit.

Lin Tian has been putting up with the system for a very long time!

The rewards I received were all pretty useless.

This time, I simply couldn't stand it anymore.

If this continues...

Should we give them the Dao De Jing Ching next time?

It seemed to sense Lin Tian's anger.

The system responded.

[... So, host, if you write a new diary entry tomorrow, will the system change the reward?]

"No!!"

[So, is the system adding another reward on top of the existing one?]

"No!"

[How about adding two more?]

"Okay! It's a deal."

[That system... um????]

[... Host, what are you doing!]

Lin Tian snorted coldly, displeased.

"That's settled then, okay, let's leave it at that for now."

"I need to rest now. You may leave."

Lin Tian finished speaking.

The system's voice then disappeared.

However, before Lin Tian could even have a moment of peace...

The system's voice came again.

Lin Tian felt a little irritated and was about to say something.

The system's next words startled Lin Tian!

[Host, please pay attention]

[Gongming and her three younger sisters have arrived at your location.]

[It won't be long before they get in.]

Do you still want them to come in?

Upon hearing this...

Lin Tian was taken aback.

Fellow Gongming?

Lin Tian subconsciously looked out the window.

But then they saw Fellow Daoist Gong Ming, dressed in a dashing Daoist Gongming and holding a feather fan.

He was leading his three stunningly beautiful sisters to the mountainside.

Apart from the four of them.

There was another person nearby.

This was the first time Lin Tian had ever met this person.

He was an old man.

It has three eyes.

His beard was all white, and he exuded an aura of righteousness.

Behind him are black and white whips.

It looks quite imposing.

"Oh?"

Who is this old man?

"What is the relationship between you and Fellow Gongming who came here?"

The system responded to Lin Tian's words.

[What the relationship is, the system doesn't know.]

[However, the system is aware of this person's personality.]

This person is resolute and loyal, possesses great strategic acumen, is kind-hearted, and acts with meticulous care.

[Note: This person has a strong connection with the host. The system suggests that contact is permissible.]

Upon hearing this...

Lin Tian's eyes flashed.

He nodded slightly and waved casually.

The next moment.

Lin Tian's body swayed and he left the room...

On the other side.

Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiaos were as usual.

It did not fly to the mountaintop.

Instead, they landed at the foot of the mountain and walked up the mountain step by step!

"Are all the magical artifacts ready?"

As Zhao Gongming walked, he asked the Three Xiaos.

After all, the magic treasures were previously stored in the Primordial Golden Dou.

Upon hearing Zhao Gongming's question, the Three Xiaos nodded and replied.

"It's ready."

"Moreover, their presence was completely erased."

"We can just give it to the senior when the time comes."

Zhao Gongming said, "Okay."

"After all, our senior helped us a great deal with the Primordial Golden Dou and the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation."

"If it weren't for you, senior, when the Chan Sect Disciple came to fight last time, we would probably have disgraced the Interception Sect."

Yunxiao said solemnly, "Yes, it's all thanks to you, senior..."

"If it weren't for you, senior, we wouldn't be a match for those Daluo Golden Immortal of the Chan Sect."

Zhao Gongming was about to say something when he said this.

His gaze sharpened, and he suddenly saw something halfway up the mountain.

An old man riding a black Qilin was wandering around in a daze.

Zhao Gongming was taken aback and asked with some suspicion.

"Hey? Isn't that Wen Zhong?"

"How did you end up here?"

"This place is completely opposite to the direction of the Human Clan!"

Upon hearing Zhao Gongming's words, the Three Xiaos were also taken aback, and asked somewhat strangely.

Wen Zhong went up the mountain.

"Could it be that the senior led him here?"

Zhao Gongming's heart stirred, and he addressed the Three Xiaos.

"Let's go take a look."
