The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple-Chapter 791 - 258: So You’re Number One? How Is That Possible! (6k)_3
"Could it really be the senior from Jiyuan Temple?" Shen Hanyi murmured to herself.
Zhou Qing wanted to inquire more but feared exposing his ignorance of the many things related to the Celestial Fate Sacred Dynasty, which might lead to suspicion.
After hesitating for a moment, he could only follow along, saying, "I think so too."
Shen Hanyi nodded and continued, "It's rumored that several great demons are suppressed under Jiyuan Temple. In the past, one managed to escape, and a Zen master pursued it, vanishing without a trace, along with the disappearance of the Demon Suppression Saber."
Zhou Qing remained silent, but how could it be that this so-called Jiyuan Temple was part of the Celestial Fate Sacred Dynasty, with strength beyond ordinary?
However—
Looking at the mummified monk, Zhou Qing's mind stirred.
He wondered if the Corpse-Touching Sticker could get some good things from him.
He just didn't know what the monk's cultivation was like in life?
How difficult would it be to trigger his last wishes?
Before Zhou Qing could think about how to ask his questions cleverly, Shen Hanyi broke the silence first, furrowing her brow and talking to herself.
"If he really is Master Kudi, a superpower at the Spirit Slash Realm Perfection, nearly having stepped into the next realm, how could he end up here all alone?"
She paused slightly and continued, "This forbidden zone isn't far from Jiyuan Temple. With his ability, how could he not even send a message back? The seniors from the temple have exhausted themselves trying to find him."
Hearing Shen Hanyi's words, Zhou Qing's eyes lit up even more.
Spirit Slash Realm Perfection, it's comparable to the cultivation of the Old Peng King from long ago.
Moreover, just as he suspected, Jiyuan Temple is indeed one of the forces of a level five cultivation country.
"Perhaps some force in this forbidden zone trapped him here!"
Zhou Qing suppressed his inner excitement and tried to keep his tone calm as he boldly speculated.
Shen Hanyi nodded thoughtfully in agreement, "That's what I think too. And throughout the millennia, no one has ever mentioned encountering this place."
"Our accidental discovery here should be a tiny probability event, or as if we unintentionally triggered something."
Zhou Qing couldn't help but step forward.
"It's been a thousand years; I wonder if the Corpse-Touching Sticker can still be used?"
Zhou Qing was somewhat uncertain, and for such a strong figure at Spirit Slash Realm Perfection, meeting one in person was as hard as ascending to heaven, let alone having any connection.
Now that he finally encountered the mummy of such a strong individual, he had to seize the opportunity.
If anything unexpected happened here later, causing both of them to exit the simulation, they might not have such good luck meeting here again next time.
Shen Hanyi asked, "Did you hear something just now? It sounded like some prayer beads shouldn't leave the temple. What are you doing?"
Seeing Zhou Qing suddenly moving forward, Shen Hanyi looked surprised and quickly became alert.
Zhou Qing, however, couldn't care about anything else and pressed down on him with one hand, activating the Corpse-Touching Sticker immediately.
In an instant, the sticker emitted a glow, and the remaining area instantly dimmed, then turned to ashes.
What followed were words exuding a faint light floating into view.
[Triggered the deceased's last wishes.]
[Wish One: Hope someone eradicates the 'Blood Zen Child' and retrieves the stolen 'Great Compassion Unconcealed Sutra.']
[Wish Two: Hope someone remembers me, Kudi.]
[Wish Three: Hope someone can take me back to Jiyuan Temple and rest me in the Nirvana Tower.]
Seeing this information, Zhou Qing felt a surge within him, filled with uncontrollable excitement.
Unexpectedly, the Corpse-Touching Sticker really worked here.
The first wish required eradicating the 'Blood Zen Child,' retrieving the stolen 'Great Compassion Unconcealed Sutra.' Not to mention how strong the 'Blood Zen Child' was, just finding this person was impossible for him.
The third wish required returning Master Kudi's remains to Jiyuan Temple in the Celestial Fate Sacred Dynasty of the five-tier cultivation country, an impossible feat for Zhou Qing given his current strength and situation.
By contrast, the second wish seemed simpler, for instance, like now, he already knew it.
Moreover, this also confirmed Shen Hanyi's earlier guess that the remains in front of them were indeed Master Kudi from Jiyuan Temple.
Thinking of this, Zhou Qing immediately released his hand from the mummy, and with a solemn expression, he respectfully bowed before the remains, saying loudly, "Junior greets Master Kudi."
Although Shen Hanyi was full of confusion, seeing Zhou Qing like this, she quickly followed and paid her respects.
It seemed Number One had also confirmed the mummy's identity; what method did he use?
Could it be that he truly was from the Celestial Fate Sacred Dynasty?
As Zhou Qing finished paying his respects, his expression suddenly froze, as if he were frozen in place.
Subsequently, in the vision perceivable only to him, scenes flashed past swiftly, like a movie playing before his eyes.
"It seems very smooth!" Zhou Qing was even more delighted.
Now, according to the rules, it should randomly select one of the deceased's valuable possessions, right?
Soon, his consciousness appeared within a magnificent temple; all around, red walls and golden tiles, flying eaves and dougong, exuding solemnity and sanctity everywhere.
Inside the temple, incense smoke curled gently, and the sound of a bell resonated softly.
"Is this the so-called Jiyuan Temple?" As he looked at the monks wearing brown robes walking in front of him, Zhou Qing had a faint guess in his heart.
He looked down and saw that "he" was wearing a golden kasaya and a string of ancient prayer beads hung around his neck.
According to what he understood, a golden kasaya represented quite high status within the temple.
