s the long chime of a bell resonates through the mountains, clearing one's mind.>Qin Sang heard several stories about strange and eerie spirits in Cui Mingshan from the coachman, and he wondered if th...Living room.
Qin Sang used his zhenyuan to simulate a miniature version of the Zhu Lan Temple.
Key nodes of the Temple Protection Spirit Array.
The cave dwellings of the three revered masters.
Talin and the position of the relics.
At a glance.

In 'Zhulang Temple', there are two winding, slender threads. These were the two easiest routes into the back mountain that Qin Sang had observed before.
He and Tianmu Die cooperate, there is a good chance of infiltrating near the Towering Forest.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The difficulty lies in how to break the taboos of the Ta-lin before startling the three venerable masters and approach the stupa.
The three venerable ones are too close to the tower, they can't take it by force, they can only take it by wisdom.
Qin Sang frowned.
>
He thought of several solutions in the blink of an eye.
For example, start with the situation in the vast ocean.
The Great Sand Sea is a vast expanse of desert in the Western Wasteland. The oases occupied by seven temples, including Zhulan Temple, are actually only the most fertile areas within the heart of the Great Sand Sea. Outside these, there are many other oases, but Buddhism has only claimed a portion of them.
The Seven Stars of the Vast Sea advance and retreat together, which is how they defend against these external forces.
Among them, there were even Yuan Ying cultivators. The problem was that they weren't united enough. Unless the Buddhist sect prepared to forcibly expel them from the vast sea, no one was willing to step forward.
Qin Sang and Liuli's cultivation bases were sufficient to stand on the stage and had the hope of uniting all parties to form an alliance against Buddha. However, those old fellows were all cunning and would never easily fall for a scheme like "using tigers to devour wolves".
Only through a long and meticulous plan, step by step, can we guide the deepening of hatred between the two sides.
Time is not a problem.
He's still far from breaking through to the later stage of the Nascent Soul.
The effort required for this is too great, to be consumed all day by conspiracy trivialities and unable to focus on cultivation.
Moreover, it was the formidable enemy that had driven Zhi Lan Temple to flee across the vast ocean seeking refuge.
After the Zilan Temple openly restored its original name, it remained steadfast in the vast expanse of the sea. Whether or not that power has been passed down through generations is unknown. Over time, the deep-seated blood feud has long since faded.
It's too much trouble to use the strategy of "driving tigers and wolves into each other". How about using "luring the tiger away from its mountain" instead
Qin Sang's expression moved slightly, he increased his true essence, simulating the entire terrain of the Seven Stars of the Vast Sea, which almost filled the entire room. He and Liuli stood opposite each other, separated by the Seven Stars of the Vast Sea.
Liuli guessed Qin Sang's thoughts and her face showed a thoughtful expression.
Qin Sang, Huasheng, and Liuli.
On their side, there were three cultivators in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.
When stealing treasures, Qin Sang had to personally infiltrate the Zhu Lan Temple and take action.
If we can lure all three honored ones away, there will be no need to station personnel outside the Zhu Lan Temple. With my avatar and Liuli free to move about, we could threaten any temple.
The seven stars of the vast sea are connected as one, a testament to an alliance where they watch over and aid each other. If other temples are attacked, it is impossible for Zhi Lan Temple to remain indifferent.
The problem is that there are three venerables residing in Zhu Lan Temple. Even if two go out to provide support, one venerable remains in the temple. Once such a situation arises, Zhu Lan Temple will definitely activate the temple protection formation immediately.
Qin Sang recalled the restrictions around Talin and began to deduce them.
> Put yourself in their shoes.
If he were guarding the temple and found someone sneaking into the pagoda during the chaos, he would immediately realize that he had been tricked. The other party's target was undoubtedly a treasure hidden within the pagoda.

His first reaction was certainly not to desperately stop the other party, but to gather all of Taring's belongings and retreat into the core of the spirit array.
Therefore, Qin Sang must do so, break the seal before alarming the Venerable One, and obtain the Buddha Bone Relic.
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
I've run through it countless times.
Qin Sang shook his head slightly, the difficulty was too great. The tower's prohibitions and the protective spirit formation were linked, making it hard to conceal from those controlling the spirit formation.
Seizing the Venerable who went out to reinforce would be one way, having the Venerable Chengyuan exchange his relic in return. But it is a truly despicable plan.
Although Xiao Xiang Zi mentioned that only cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage could perceive the extraordinary nature of the relic, there are countless Buddhist secret arts. Moreover, since Venerable Zhu Lan and Venerable Hong Yi were disciples of the same master, knowing that the relic held secrets, it's hard to say they wouldn't have discovered something.
Compared to the opportunities for breakthrough, which are more important: two fellow disciples
To move all three venerables away from Zhu Lan Temple, it would be unavoidable to unite with external forces.
Or, temporarily endure and wait for the situation to change, seizing the opportunity when it arises. The Buddha's bone relics have been kept in Zhulan Temple for many years, remaining safe and sound. There is no need to rush things.
As the saying goes, where there's a will, there's a way.
As long as you have enough patience, there will always be opportunities.
Qin Sang turned over these thoughts, suddenly remembering something, his eyes lit up, he suddenly raised his head, and found that Liuli was looking at him just in time. She obviously thought of it too.

"Guanguang Bodhisattva!"
Both spoke in unison.
In recent years, the name of the Moon Goddess has become increasingly well-known, spreading not only across the Western Desert but also to the Central Plains and Northern Wasteland.
The whole world is watching the Buddhist sect's jokes.
From being ignored to now being frequently mentioned and enjoyed by people, the art of debating has come a long way.
Even in the cultivation world of Zhongzhou, it sparked a debate on righteousness.
The Moonlit Bodhisattva still roams the Western Desert, appearing and disappearing at will. It is unknown how many Buddhist practitioners have gathered in the Western Desert to search for him, but they haven't been able to harm a single hair on his head.
Every appearance is in an unexpected place and time, then disappears without a trace, inevitably making nearby monks lose face and never dare to mention scriptures again.
The Buddhist saints are indeed patient, still haven't made an appearance.
If the Moon Goddess takes pleasure in slapping the face of Buddhism, how could she let go of the vast ocean
If Zhu Lan Temple were to close its doors and avoid battle, they would lose far more face than by facing their opponents head-on. Even in defeat, they could still say "well fought" with grace and dignity.
>
Moreover, each temple has long regarded the Moon Goddess as a formidable foe. High monks have been deeply immersed in studying scriptures, and they might just stand a chance of victory.
The Moon Goddess is now more cautious. She no longer engages in debates as openly as she used to, and carefully chooses secluded locations that are difficult to besiege for each discourse.
Here is the translation:> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
If you come here, it is highly likely that a talismanic altar has been set up somewhere on the periphery of the Seven Stars of the Vast Ocean.
Under the moonlight, Guanyin Bodhisattva lured the attention of the Seven Stars of the Vast Sea. While Zhulan Temple sent a venerated warrior to face them, Liuli caused more chaos. Qin Sang took this opportunity to strike.
Qin Sang paced back and forth a few steps, finding it feasible.
Let's see when the Moon Goddess arrives here.
Of course, Qin Sang wouldn't put all his hope on one person. He discussed with Liuli, continuing to gather information while contacting the forces of the瀚海 , making preparations on both fronts.
>
As expected.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
The vast sea forces are very wary of the Buddhist sect. Unless absolutely necessary, they would rather not oppose it.
To avoid exposing their true intentions, Qin Sang only maintained relationships under the guise of making friends, secretly seeking a breakthrough.
Seven years have passed in the blink of an eye.
During that time, the Moon Goddess vanished without a trace for a full five years.
Qin Sang couldn't help but wonder if the Buddhist sect was furious and had sent experts to secretly eliminate this person.
Over seven years, Qin Sang's understanding of the protective spirit formation at Zhu Lan Temple had reached an advanced level, but he had never found a suitable opportunity.
Master Zhu Lan has lived in seclusion at the temple for many years, never leaving its grounds.
He had already given up hope for the Moonlight Bodhisattva. The two of them found a cave nearby to take shelter, practicing their cultivation and making long-term plans at the same time.
To everyone's surprise, after many years of disappearance, the Moon Goddess reappeared. And for the second debate, she set up her platform on the vast sea of stars. Although it was thousands of miles away in the Sea of Stars, it was clearly directed at them.
The message spread like wildfire through the seven oases.
Qin Sang and Liuli had been keeping an eye on the Zhu Lan Temple, and they were the first to learn the news.
On the edge of the oasis.
Two monks in saffron robes sat cross-legged under the Bodhi tree. One was thin and gaunt, resembling a monk from legend who practiced austerities. The other was younger, with a round head and large ears, yet his expression was serene and dignified.
Behind them stood a group of young monks, holding prayer beads and silent.
The Bodhi Tree is a sacred tree in Buddhism.
In the present day, the true Bodhi tree has become extinct. Therefore, Buddhist followers use another type of tree with similar leaves to the Bodhi tree, making a forced connection and claiming it to be a Bodhi tree.
Outside the Bodhi tree, stretches a vast expanse of yellow sand.
The howling wind rushed into their ears, yet the monks remained calm and composed.
Just then, some figures flew in from afar.
"Brother Chengzhen."
"Greetings, fellow disciple." Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
>
The sound precedes the person's arrival.
Two high monks sitting under a tree stood up and bowed in return.
When the two sides met, they mounted their escaping light and entered the desert sea.
After they disappeared, two figures emerged from the dunes in the distance. They were Qin Sang's incarnation and Liuli.
“Unexpectedly, the True Venerable Chengzhen of Zhi Lan Temple has also broken through to the middle stage of the Yuanying. His cultivation is quite refined. Fortunately, he didn't act rashly.”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Qin Sang said softly.
These are the high monks of the Han Hai Seven Stars Sect who went out to participate in the debate.
Fortune smiled upon us. The orchid temple places great importance on debates, and they even dispatched two venerables. Only Venerable Chengyuan remains in the temple to hold the fort. This is a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity.
Qin Sang and Liuli exchanged a glance, as if they no longer needed to use the strategy of "luring the tiger away from the mountain"!
Zhu Lan Temple.
Qin Sang disguised himself as a Buddhist monk, sneaking into the temple in advance and hiding in the dark. He wasn't afraid even when Zhulan Temple closed its doors.
However, the ZhiLan Temple didn't make any big moves.
Over the years, the temples that have been targeted by the Moon Goddess have only suffered superficial damage to their appearance and no substantial losses.
Over time, the purpose of Guanyin Bodhisattva gradually became known to people.
After being defeated in the debate, he willingly offered up all the precious scriptures housed in the temple's scripture pavilion to Moonlight Bodhisattva, allowing her to read through them. This person was not greedy and did not covet the temple's true teachings.
When the Venerable Chzhen departed, he had his disciples inscribe scriptures onto jade slips beforehand and bring them along.
For many years, Guan Yin Bodhisattva has adhered to the rules and regulations and never overstepped boundaries, so the Buddhist world has not had a strong reaction.
Perhaps, in the eyes of truly great and wise monks, having someone like this alert the Buddhist world might not be a bad thing.
However, this debate was utilized by Qin Sang, and its nature was destined to change.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Qingyun."
On the mountain path.
The two novice monks guarding the mountain saw a young monk walking over from the front courtyard and hurriedly bowed to greet him.
The monk returned the greeting with clasped hands, his expression solemn and serious. He spoke in a grave tone, "The abbot has ordered that no unauthorized persons are to enter the back mountain. You two disciples must keep a close watch."
Upon hearing the name of the abbot, the two young monks shivered and hurriedly said, "As you wish."
The monk nodded and continued his rounds.
The monk was precisely Qin Sang disguising himself with a borrowed treasure, swaggering into the back mountain.
The real monk has already been knocked unconscious.
After years of investigation, he was intimately familiar with the Zhu Lan Temple, including the dharma names and duties of its disciples. When disguised, he naturally blended in seamlessly.
At Zhi Lan Temple, the Venerable one sits high above worldly affairs, unconcerned with mundane matters. The temple's affairs are managed by eight chief monks, and the Abbot is one of them.
Master Qingyun listened to the abbot's orders in the Dharma hall.
Qin Sang had been observing this person for a long time. At this moment, his words and actions were perfect, and he met several waves of monks without revealing any flaws, smoothly approaching the tower forest.
The monk guarding the tower is still the same one from last time.
"Qingyun..."
The monk thought it was the abbot's order and didn't suspect anything else. He walked out of the meditation hall and just as he opened his mouth to speak, he suddenly heard a strange 'hmph hmph' sound, followed by a piercing pain in his soul.
The monk was horrified and pale. He tried to shout a warning to the temple, but it was too late.
Qin Sang used the Soul Devouring Mantra, although he didn't use his full strength, it was not something a mere Golden Core cultivator could withstand.
The monk's soul was injured and he fainted on the spot.
Qin Sang's figure was like a ghost, approaching the monk and gently supporting him, hiding him in the meditation hall. He then transformed himself into the guard monk, even his demeanor was identical.

Qin Sang stood outside the Tower Forest, his gaze sweeping over the restrictions on the perimeter before finally landing on the cliff face deep within the forest.
Master Chengyuan is meditating.

A stick of incense later.
>
A lone figure walked outside the Zhu Lan Temple, their face concealed by a hooded cloak.
The gatekeeper monk, upon seeing him, immediately grew nervous and apprehensive, as if facing a formidable foe.
Because this person did not conceal it, the aura of the Yuanying stage was fully revealed.
"This master is polite," the visitor said as she walked to the front of the temple gate, her voice soft and gentle. "I am a traveling practitioner who has come here after hearing that Zhi Lan Temple is the abode of eminent monks. I have come to pay my respects and would ask the master to inform him of my arrival."
The visitor was none other than Liuli.
Hearing only the voice, the guest monk sensed a beautiful woman under the cloak. But he dared not harbor any impure thoughts and hurriedly returned the salute, saying: "Please wait a moment in the front courtyard, senior. I will report to the abbot right away."
Thank you.
Liuli nodded slightly and followed the monk into the front courtyard, waiting in a quiet room.
The attendant monk immediately reported the matter to the abbot. The abbot hurried over and confirmed that it was indeed a Taoist immortal. Not daring to neglect him, he rushed to the back mountain to consult the master.
Before the cliff-face inscription, the monk explained the reason.
A moment later, a chilling voice came from inside: “Go away!”
Here's the translation of your content:

The master of the temple was taken aback for a moment, bowed and retreated, returning to the front courtyard. He apologized and said only that the ancestor was in retreat, and they would meet again when fate allowed.
Luliu seemed to have expected to be rejected at the door long ago, and she was not annoyed. She walked out of the quiet room, her lips slightly parted, and circulated her true energy.
“I come from the depths of the desert, fellow Daoist. Surely you wouldn't want to know the origins of the Moon Goddess”
When Zhenyuan was activated, the sound rolled like thunder, instantly spreading throughout the entire Zhulan Temple.
The head monk was so scared that his face turned pale, and he almost fell to the ground.
In the Zen hall.
Qin Sang pretended to be flustered and rushed out of the meditation hall.
Carved cliff face.
Master Chengyuan was an old man, well past his prime. His robes were worn and faded as if they had been through many years of use.
The sound entered the meditation hall clearly. Master Chengyuan's eyes opened slightly, his gaze flashing brightly, and his figure vanished into thin air.

This is the power of the Zhulan Temple's Guardian Spirit Array. The main array operator can have teleportation-like abilities within the temple, moving freely to any location!
The front yard.
Liuli looked up at the mountains behind her, ignoring the frightened face of the monastery's master.
Just then.
A ripple of energy emanated from the void ahead, and the figure of Venerable Cheng Yuan materialized.

To his surprise, the next moment, Master Chengyuan's expression changed drastically, and he let out a thunderous roar.
"Good courage!"
