Chapter 268 The Function of Magic Crystal

"Senior, do you need accommodation?" The old man at the front desk obviously recognized the man's identity and his tone became respectful.

"An ordinary room will do." Kong Jue bowed with one hand and said to the shopkeeper.

"Please wait a moment, senior." The shopkeeper quickly made the door number plate and handed it over with both hands.

Kong Jue passed by Luo Shan and Ling Wanran, took the doorplate, then turned around and nodded to Luo Shan and Ling Wanran as a friendly greeting.

Buddhist monks at Bodhi Temple?

Luo Shan raised his eyebrows when he saw the word "Bodhi" engraved on the sandalwood Buddhist beads in Kong Jue's hand.

"Fellow Daoist Kongjue." Luo Shan spoke and called out to Kongjue who was about to go upstairs.

"My two fellow Taoists, do you have something to ask me?" Kong Jue turned around and looked at Luo Shan.

"My name is Luo Shan, and this is Ling Wanran. We want to make a deal with Fellow Daoist Kong Jue." Luo Shan said, looking at the houseplate in Kong Jue's hand, the meaning was self-evident.

"Since fellow Daoist wants to make a deal, then please go ahead." Kong Jue looked straight at Luo Shan. His gaze paused for a moment on the white jade coffin on his waist, then he looked away as if nothing had happened.

Ling Wanran was puzzled by what she heard, but she also realized that the purpose of this Buddhist cultivator who came out of Bodhi Temple was Luoshan.

Why was it Luo San? Could it be because Luo San has a high level of cultivation? But this is not right.

Oh, right, corpse puppet...

Buddhists cultivate merits and build golden bodies, but to them, corpses like corpse puppets are evil spirits. Could it be that they regard Fellow Daoist Luo as an evil cultivator?

Thinking about the time when Fellow Daoist Luo summoned the white jade coffin corpse puppet, the Jindan cultivator of the Lin family also regarded Luo San as an evil cultivator. It seems that there are no corpse puppet cultivators in the Haoran Realm.

Kong Jue naturally noticed Ling Wanran's vigilant gaze, but he didn't care. He lowered his eyebrows and had a kind smile on his face. He looked at Luo Shan with compassion.

The more Ling Wanran looked at it, the weirder it seemed, so she sent a voice message to Luo Shan:

"Fellow Daoist Luo, what kind of deal do you want to make with this person?"

"You'll know in a moment, Fellow Daoist Ling." Luo Shan didn't say anything explicitly. He just blinked at Ling Wanran and followed Kong Jue into the room.

After Kong Jue set up a ban to block the spiritual sense from prying eyes, he sat on a stool in the room, looking as if he was listening attentively.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, what kind of deal do you want to make with me?"

Luo Shan sat opposite Kong Jue, and then sat down with Ling Wanran.

"Fellow Daoist Kongjue, have you ever heard of the Wu Clan?"

Luo San sat upright and said seriously.

"Wu clan?" Kong Jue frowned, "Is it some hidden clan?"

"No." Luo Shan shook his head: The Wu Clan is a tribe that practices in a different way."

Luo Shan explained, and then said seriously: "I think Daoist Fellow Kong Jue has also noticed the strange aura on me."

Luo Shan is not a fool. When Kong Jue appeared in front of her, she looked at her white jade coffin with an inquiring look from time to time. She seemed to sense the corpse aura.

"So, I understand." Kong Jue nodded, and then said: "Since you are not an evil cultivator, I will not attack you."

"You have great merits and your luck is hard to tell. Although I have never seen your little white jade coffin, I can feel that it is recognized by the rules of heaven."

This was also the reason why he was puzzled. The evil cultivators had committed too many sins of killing, and the aura on their bodies was rejected by the Heavenly Dao. The more sins a person committed, the heavier the backlash would be.

This female Jindan cultivator has reached the Jindan stage through practice, and has some evil spirit on her body, but it is not much different from that of a normal cultivator.

"Now that you have explained it, may I ask you what deal you would like to make with me?"

Luo Shan took a steady look at Kong Jue and slowly uttered two words:

"Magic crystal."

"Magic crystal!" Kong Jue was shocked, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he looked at Luo Shan with a serious expression.

"Fellow Daoist, magic crystals are things born from the desires of cultivators. How could you have them?" Kong Jue was shocked by Luo Shan's words and his expression became serious.

"I want to exchange a magic crystal for a Bodhi seed from the Bodhi Temple." Luo San said.

"The magic crystal is in your hands? Aren't you afraid of being corroded by negative energy?" Kong Jue stared at Luo Shan closely and looked at the other party's white jade coffin again.

He now wondered whether the things in the coffin were related to the magic crystal.

"Although the magic crystal is harmful to cultivators, it is different for you Buddhists. After all, the balance of yin and yang in all things is the ultimate way. You cultivate faith, build golden bodies, and enter the world to accumulate merits, all in order to sacrifice your physical bodies and become Buddhas." Luo Shan said, summoning the corpse puppet.

Kong Jue's eyebrows jumped when he saw that there was suddenly one more person in the room, oh no, a corpse.

Especially when he discovered that this corpse puppet was also at the Jindan stage, he looked at Luo Shan with some surprise.

Obviously, the cultivation level of the corpse puppet in the white jade coffin exceeded his expectations.

But he didn't have time to think about these things now, but was immersed in what Luo Shan had just said.

Just as Luo Shan said, it is extremely difficult for them to ascend to heaven once they reach the tribulation period. After all, it is not easy to accumulate huge amounts of merit and faith.

After all, if you choose to enter the world, you have to follow the secular rules.

"I believe that this magic crystal, with the flesh of a senior in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, can purify the negative energy within it and transform it into merit. I think it can be equivalent to at least a thousand years of merit."

After all, the purified magic crystal will become an extremely pure force of faith, feeding back to the way of heaven.

"In this case, is this thing still not worth a Bodhi seed?"

As Luo Shan spoke, he asked the corpse puppet to hold up a Jindan-stage magic crystal.

The stench instantly filled the entire room. Kong Jue's eyelids jumped and he quickly said:

"Fellow Daoist Luo, I'm afraid I need to discuss this matter with the elders in the temple. You should take this magic crystal back first."

Luo Shan raised his eyebrows, called the corpse puppet back to the white jade coffin, and said with a smile:

"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva once said that he would not attain Buddhahood until hell is empty. Daoist friend Kongjue is a Buddhist, so why are you afraid of this tiny magic crystal?"

"Amitabha." Kong Jue's eyelids twitched and he said honestly:

"I am not afraid."

"I was traveling and passed by Sancheng. It was fate that I met Daoist Luo. Daoist Luo, are you willing to follow me to Kubei Bodhi Temple?"

"Okay, but we have to wait a few days. Fellow Daoist Ling wants to assess the rank of the formation master." Luo Shan thought about it and felt that she could go to the Bodhi Temple to take a look. After all, she had never seen the Buddhist sect.

Luo Shan's brows furrowed, thinking of the memories he had obtained from searching his soul before. Demons had appeared in this Haoran Realm tens of thousands of years ago, but they failed to invade the Haoran Realm and finally retreated back to the Demon Realm.

When comparing the four worlds, Luo Shan always felt something was strange.

A light bulb suddenly lit up in his mind, and Luo Shan suddenly recalled the spirit of the Suppressing Bell in the Bone Mountain in the Donglin Secret Realm.

At that time, the spirit claimed to be a Buddhist cultivator. And thousands of years ago in the Sifang Realm, there had indeed been Buddhist cultivators, and the strength of their sect was not weaker than the three sects of Dongyue.

Later it gradually declined, and Luo San did not understand the reason.

When he arrived in the Haoran Realm and saw the Buddhist cultivator, Luo Shan realized that the magic crystal was also an extremely special thing for Buddhist cultivators.

Could it be that the Buddhist cultivators who declined in the Four Directions Realm thousands of years ago were related to the evil cultivators and demons?

And the space teleportation array created by the evil cultivator, could it be that he wants to open up a channel between the two worlds and then cause the decline of Buddhism in the same way?

Thinking of this, Luo San broke out in a cold sweat on his back.

"Fellow Daoist Luo?" Ling Wanran noticed that something was wrong with Luo San and spoke immediately.

"Nothing, I just suddenly thought of something." Luo Shan shook his head and put the matter behind him for the time being.

Now, those evil cultivators and demons are no different from the difference between elephants and ants to her.

She is only in the Jindan stage, what can she do?

Ultimately, it's a question of strength.

Thinking of this, Luo Shan became more determined to become stronger. She must go to the Fairyland.
