Zhunti: How Did I Lose the Six Roots Pure Bamboo?
Mountains.
In Lin Tian's courtyard.
Lin Tian looked down at the emerald green bamboo below.
The bamboo is three feet long with seven sections.
The middle section resembles a vibrant green jade, while the joints between the bamboo stalks are a withered yellow, and there are a dozen or so yellowish-green leaves at the top.
It lay quietly on the ground.
Its appearance is somewhat peculiar.
It feels like it's starting to wither.
However, there is a faint spiritual energy emanating from it.
However, the spiritual energy in the courtyard was too strong.
This resulted in the energy emanating from the bamboo not being fully released!
"Huh? Where did this bamboo come from?"
Lin Tian did not have the habit of planting bamboo.
There are no bamboo groves around the courtyard.
"Could it be that those two ascetic monks forgot to take it when they left?"
Hmm... that's possible.
These thoughts flashed through Lin Tian's mind, and he bent down to pick up the bamboo.
The moment I held the bamboo in my hand.
A strange aura suddenly emerged from the emerald green bamboo.
In an instant, it enveloped Lin Tian.
But.
This aura only appeared for less than a breath.
It was then directly swallowed up by the surrounding forces.
For Lin Tian...
I only felt a slight breeze around me.
"Oh? It does have some talent?"
"However, that's about all there is to it."
"The spiritual energy contained within it is not as great as that Muqin."
Lin Tian thought to himself.
He casually tossed the jade bamboo in his hand and played with it for a while.
Then I lost interest.
"It doesn't feel good to the touch; it only looks smooth, but it's actually a bit rough on the hands."
"I thought it was something fancy. Turns out it's just a cheap knock-off."
Lin Tian pursed his lips and muttered to himself.
"I wonder if those two monks and nuns will ever return?"
"After all, this thing ended up with me?"
"Well, it's not good stuff anyway, so I'll be a good person and keep it for them."
"If you don't come back looking for it, then I'll gladly accept this."
Lin Tian pondered this in his heart and stopped thinking about it.
Set the tea aside.
Then he walked towards the door of the house.
Only.
When Lin Tian passed by the pond he had dug again.
Lin Tian's heart stirred.
"This bamboo still has some leaves, but they're all a bit withered."
"Why don't we plant this bamboo in this pond for now?"
"Although bamboo isn't grown in water, at least there's soil at the bottom of the pond."
"It's not easy to preserve it anywhere else either. Even if it were planted, the Erha would probably dig it up."
Thinking of this...
Lin Tian's mind stirred.
He then took the emerald green bamboo and went to the pond.
Then it was inserted vertically into the pond.
This pond was dug out bit by bit by the Erha under Lin Tian's orders.
The shade and size are just right.
Then Lin Tian poured all the unused bottled water in.
This formed the small pond that is now crystal clear and pulsating with spiritual energy.
Lin Tian hadn't had time to catch fish before.
It's just for display.
Now, it can be put to good use.
Lin Tian rolled up his sleeves and stuck the bamboo stalks into the pond near its edge.
It seems there's still some hope left.
Do this well.
Lin Tian clapped his hands.
He turned and walked into the room.
What Lin Tian didn't know was...
The instant he turned around.
The bamboo he planted in the pond.
A slight tremor.
Perhaps it's because of the spiritual energy nourishing the pond.
The emerald green bamboo stalks appeared even more vibrant in color.
The connection nodes were originally somewhat withered and yellowed.
It slowly disappeared.
Then, streaks of emerald green appeared.
As the branches change.
The dozen or so leaves on the surface also changed from yellowish-brown to emerald green.
It seems to have become one with the branches.
Obviously.
After being moistened by the mineral water in the pond.
This bamboo seems to have been given a new life.
Compared to before, not only has her complexion changed, but even her aura has changed.
Buzz!
Just then...
A strange aura suddenly emanated from the bamboo.
The branches began to tremble slightly.
This caused ripples to appear on the calm water surface.
As the ripples became visible.
The water in the pond was also mysteriously decreasing!
It seems to have been absorbed by the bamboo.
And all of this.
Lin Tian had no idea!
At this moment, Lin Tian was pondering how to write his next diary entry.
And it was at this moment.
On the other side.
It was hundreds of millions of miles away from the courtyard where Lin Tian was.
It is a vast ocean bordering the southern edge of the Interception Sect) dojo.
Above this vast ocean.
Everything was peaceful at first.
Even the spiritual energy remained undisturbed by any irregular event.
However, the peace was short-lived and was soon shattered.
Two sharp "whoosh!" sounds suddenly rang out.
Looking in the direction of the sound.
Then they saw it in the distant void.
There were two disheveled figures.
From far to near.
It charged straight towards us.
Because the speed was too fast.
That's why it produced that ear-piercing sonic boom!
Swish!
Suddenly.
A golden light.
It was revealed in one of the figures with a sorrowful face.
In an instant.
A golden light suddenly appeared in the sky above the ocean!
It carries with it a sense of astonishing merit.
Soaring into the sky!
The next moment.
A golden lotus, hundreds of millions of feet in size.
It suddenly appeared from beneath that figure.
It is not something else.
It is indeed Supreme-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure — the Twelve-Grade Golden Lotus of Merit!
Thump!
The moment the golden lotus emerged.
A loud noise came from one side.
A series of chants of Buddhist hymns emerged.
Countless tassels hung down.
One after another, gentle forces emerged.
Unstoppable, incredibly powerful!
Finally, it landed on those two figures!
In an instant.
With the help of the golden light, the two figures finally...
They stopped in a sorry state!
His previously pale face gradually regained its color.
These two people are none other than...
These were the Two Sages of the West who were blasted away by the Power of the Great Dao Heavenly Court's Great Dao!
Damn it!
"What kind of power was that just now? Even the Twelve-Grade Golden Lotus of Merit couldn't withstand it!"
Even with the protection of Merit Golden Lotus, Jieyin.
But I did manage to withstand that attack just now.
His primordial spirit had actually suffered a slight internal injury!
Although it is very small.
But even this slightest bit...
It would take at least hundreds of thousands of years of painstaking repair to fix it!
Hearing the Jieyin's extremely angry tone.
Zhunti, standing to one side, also looked extremely angry.
He was just gloating Jieyin getting the Muqin.
The next moment, they were blasted away by a force far exceeding their own!
Faced with that force, they had absolutely no chance of resistance!
"Senior brother, could that young man be Tongtian?!"
Zhunti's expression was solemn.
It seems that only Tongtian possesses such an attack power to send them flying!
And it seems that only the Sect Master Tongtian could pull off such a scene!
Jieyin shook his head and said.
"Impossible!"
"That young man is definitely not Tongtian!"
"Tongtian wasn't there at the time!"
"Otherwise, the moment my intention to seize the magic weapon was born, Tongtian would have already discovered it!"
Hearing the explanation from the Jieyin.
Zhunti's expression changed slightly, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.
"If it's not Tongtian, then the problem lies with the magic array in that courtyard!"
"Perhaps we both underestimated that courtyard! We were a bit careless and didn't prepare any defenses beforehand."
"My senior brother was recognized by the magic array in the courtyard the moment he touched the Muqin."
"It unleashed such powerful force that we were blasted away before we even had a chance to break free of our primordial spirit's restraints!"
"There were limitations imposed by our cultivation level at the time, but there's no denying that the magic array was incredibly powerful!"
Upon hearing what Zhunti said...
Jieyin's eyes narrowed instantly, and recalling the scene, his face turned pale.
"Indeed, the power of the courtyard's magic array is much stronger than I expected!"
"That young man, possessing such a powerful magic array, is not as simple as I initially thought!"
"I miscalculated..."
At that moment, Jieyin was so Jieyin by that magical artifact that he couldn't resist.
They were eager to acquire magical artifacts in order to enhance the strength of the West.
I initially thought that even if that young man was not simple, it wouldn't matter.
After all, given his experience of frequently stealing magical artifacts, he shouldn't be caught!
Moreover, the Green Lotus Treasure Banner can also isolate one's aura, causing all evil spirits to retreat and making one immune to magic.
Unexpectedly, the courtyard's magic array could even ignore such Lingbao.
That's truly extraordinary.
Thinking about this...
Jieyin a deep breath and said in a hoarse voice.
"If we want to come back again afterward, I'm afraid we'll have to call on Taishang and Yuanshi... With our strength at the First Level of the Hunyuan Realm, we might be able to withstand the formation alone, but that would distract us from dealing with Tongtian."
Upon hearing Jieyin's words, Zhunti sighed.
A hint of helplessness flickered in his eyes.
At the time, he had repeatedly reminded the Jieyin to be cautious.
Even as Jieyin was about to Jieyin his final move, Zhunti was not completely at ease.
Instead, they prepared the Six Roots Pure Bamboo in preparation for any unforeseen events!
The crucial point is that he didn't even have time to use the Six Roots Pure Bamboo before he was knocked away...
"Senior brother, why don't you meditate and cultivate here for a while?"
"I'll first use the Six Roots Pure Bamboo to conceal the aura here..."
As soon as Zhunti finished speaking, he casually waved his hand.
I intend to summon the Six Roots Pure Bamboo.
Only.
His divine sense, released by his primordial spirit, missed its target!
He couldn't sense the aura of the Six Roots Pure Bamboo at all!
Normally, the Six Roots Pure Bamboo are simply hidden within the Purple Palace.
When activated, it requires only a wisp of divine thought.
But now, there is no trace of the Six Roots Pure Bamboo in his Purple Mansion.
It wasn't in the Sumeru Bag either.
And Zhunti couldn't sense its presence at all!
This result was obtained.
In an instant!
Zhunti's face turned deathly pale!
I couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"Senior brother, this is terrible!"
"Where has my Six Roots Pure Bamboo senses gone?!"
