Chapter 322 Boundless Jade Wall
Once a cultivator's cultivation reaches a certain level, they will be able to foresee the future.
This is exactly what is meant by "a sudden impulse." Once a cultivator's cultivation reaches a certain level, their spirit and body become completely integrated, and if anything unexpected happens, they will have a premonition in their heart.
However, that only extends to sensing one's own future. Those who can foresee the fate of others, aside from those with special techniques like the Yuan family of Jiangling or the Cao family of Northern Han, are only those who have reached the Tongtian realm in cultivation. Only they can foresee the future development of others, or even the entire world.
A person at the level of the True Martial Emperor could even prepare contingency plans for events tens of thousands of years in advance.
The old monk before them could not possibly possess such a level of skill, and there had never been any known techniques in Leiyin Temple that were famous for predicting the future.
Therefore, Lin Fei couldn't help but be skeptical of what the gray-robed old monk had said.
Just as Lin Fei was filled with doubt, a voice suddenly came from the mountain path in the distance: "Benefactor Li, you've arrived. Why aren't you climbing the mountain? Why are you staying on this mountain path?"
Lin Fei looked in the direction of the sound and saw a monk coming down the mountain path. It was none other than the monk Xuanli who had invited him to Leiyin Temple.
“Master, I am…” Lin Fei turned his head, wanting to say a few more words to the gray-robed old monk, but he only saw that there was only a huge rock in front of him, and the gray-robed old monk who was sitting on the rock had disappeared without a trace.
"This old monk has such powerful cultivation!" Lin Fei exclaimed inwardly. You must know that with Lin Fei's current cultivation level, even if a silver needle falls within a radius of dozens of miles, it will not escape his notice.
Lin Fei didn't notice when the gray-robed old monk appeared, nor did he notice when he disappeared.
Such cultivation is probably far superior to Lin Fei's. Leiyin Temple, a world-renowned martial arts sect, is indeed not to be underestimated.
As they were talking, Xuanli had already walked to Lin Fei's side. Lin Fei put aside the matter of the gray-robed old monk for the time being, put his hands together, and bowed to Xuanli: "I was invited by the master to come up the mountain that day, and now I have come here without permission. I am afraid that I will disturb the master."
"No disturbance, no disturbance at all." Xuanli said with a smile, "I told you long ago that you had an affinity with Buddhism. Now that you've come up the mountain, I'm overjoyed!"
He had just finished speaking when he suddenly realized that it seemed a bit inappropriate for him to keep referring to himself as "Laozi" in front of a guest in this sacred Buddhist place. He scratched his head awkwardly and said, "The abbot learned of your arrival on the mountain and specially sent this humble monk to welcome you. Please come up the mountain with me!"
Xuanli led Lin Fei along the mountain path towards Leiyin Temple.
With the monk Xuanli leading the way, no one could stop Lin Fei anymore, and he passed through the Eighteen Bronze Men Formation on the back mountain very smoothly.
Moreover, it seems that Monk Xuanli holds a high position in Leiyin Temple. Even the bronze men of the Eighteen Bronze Men Formation treat him with respect and address him as "Uncle-Master".
As Lin Fei walked, he thought of the mysterious old monk from earlier and subtly asked Xuan Li, "Master Xuan Li, may I ask if your temple has a gray-robed old monk with superb martial arts skills?"
“A gray-robed old monk?” Xuanli thought for a moment, then said, “I’ve been in Leiyin Temple for decades and have never heard of any gray-robed old monk with high martial arts skills. There are a few gray-robed old monks, but they are all those who are not qualified to practice martial arts. They are too old for the abbot to let them leave the mountain, so they stay in the mountain gate as guest monks.”
The monk Xuanli chuckled and said, "The rumors about the sweeping monk with extraordinary skills are just a trick made up by storytellers in the martial arts world to attract listeners. If there really was such a person with extraordinary skills, wouldn't the heads of the various academies on the mountain worship him like an ancestor?"
After hearing Xuanli's words, Lin Fei became even more curious about the gray-robed old monk's identity—even Xuanli, who had stayed on Little Spirit Mountain for decades, didn't know of the gray-robed old monk's existence. His identity was indeed extremely mysterious.
……
As they spoke, the two had already entered the Leiyin Temple.
The scale of Leiyin Temple was in no way inferior to that of the Jade Emperor Sect, which Lin Fei was familiar with; in fact, it was considerably larger. The entire temple complex comprised no fewer than a thousand buildings.
Based on its distribution, it can be divided into three main areas: the front yard, the back garden, and the back hill.
The front courtyard, with the Mahavira Hall at its head, is where monks meditate and worship Buddha. There are also many temples dedicated to Buddha and Bodhisattvas for believers who come up the mountain to pay their respects.
The rear courtyard consists of various halls, including the Arhat Hall, Prajna Hall, Bodhidharma Hall, and the Vinaya Hall.
Finally, the back mountain was Lin Fei's destination on his journey to Leiyin Temple. Not only was it where the monks practiced martial arts, but it also contained a forest of stupas. Furthermore, the back mountain was heavily guarded, with eighteen bronze statues guarding the mountain paths, and outside the stupa forest lay Leiyin Temple's renowned Vajra Subduing Demon Circle.
Lin Fei followed Xuan Li all the way to the back courtyard of Leiyin Temple. In the back courtyard of Leiyin Temple, he could only see some ordinary monks in yellow robes, and there was not a single head monk or anything like that.
Not only Lin Fei, but even Xuan Li had some doubts. When the two arrived at the place where Abbot Du Nan was, they found that even Abbot Du Nan was not in his room.
"That's strange. The abbot clearly told me to go down the mountain to meet you, so where did he go?" Xuanli grabbed an ordinary monk who was passing by and asked, "Little monk, where are the abbot and the heads of the various monasteries? Where did they all go?"
The young monk was clearly somewhat afraid of Xuan power. Startled, he quickly replied, "Reporting to Uncle-Master, the abbot just summoned the heads of all the academies and has already gone to the Boundless Jade Wall."
Just then, a young monk rushed over and called out to Xuanli from a distance, "Uncle-Master Xuanli, Uncle-Master Xuanli, the abbot wants you to bring the guests directly to the Boundless Jade Wall. The abbot and the heads of the various academies are already waiting in front of the Boundless Jade Wall!"
"The Boundless Jade Disc?" Upon hearing these four words, Xuanli's expression changed drastically. After a long while, he muttered resentfully, "Damn it, isn't this putting me in an awkward position?"
Although Lin Fei knew something about Leiyin Temple, he had never been up the mountain before, so his understanding of it was only superficial. He also had no idea what this so-called Boundless Jade Wall was.
Seeing that Xuanli's expression was not very good, Lin Fei asked, "Master Xuanli, may I ask what exactly this Boundless Jade Wall is?"
