Chapter 1727 Persuasion

"Don't worry, Mr. Lin. I have no other intention in asking you this. In the Three Realms and Six Paths, everyone has to go through the seven emotions and six desires, and we Buddhists are no exception."

"Cultivating immortals is against the will of heaven. I also experienced the tribulation of love hundreds of years ago. Now I have seen through the world of mortals. I sit down with the Buddha and concentrate on practicing, hoping to comprehend the great way as soon as possible."

The old monk Yuanming ignored Lin Jichen's guilty look and complicated expression of eagerness to explain, and continued to stroll around the garden and talk freely.

"My junior sister is aloof by nature, with extraordinary intelligence. She has cultivated to this point without ever having any worldly desires, nor has she ever looked down upon any man in the world. Such a pure heart has also allowed her to make rapid progress in cultivation. She has reached the state of immortality at just over 500 years old. In terms of talent, she is not much worse than your master."

Lin Ji Chen was silent, secretly surprised in his heart that Master Jingyi was so young.

In the entire world of cultivating immortals, those who are 500 years old and have reached the state of Yuhua are really rare. His master Leng Feiyan is only over 300 years old.

Even though all current players are under a hundred years old, before the launch of "Eight Desolations", the spiritual energy in this world was a hundred times thinner than it is now. If the cultivators in Eight Desolations wanted to improve, they had to practice, retreat, and gain experience continuously.

They are nothing like the players on Blue Star, who not only take advantage of the great environment of spiritual energy explosion, but also have the help of the game system. It's like cheating. Just kill a few more monsters and even the dumbest person can always break through.

Except for the realms above the God Transformation, which really require a talent threshold, the realms below the God Transformation can be reached by killing monsters, taking elixirs, etc.

It is said that there are cheat codes in all cool novels, and the players on Blue Star are all male protagonists in cool novels, all of whom have cheat-like cheat code help.

It’s like in the past when books were scarce, people who wanted to read had no means to buy books, and knowledge was a luxury for the general public.

Later, books were everywhere and everyone could read them at will. There were even free private schools where free teachers could give you scientific and systematic guidance.

With the help of such conditions, there is really nothing to brag about for the Blue Star players catching up with the NPCs in the Eight Desolations.

Monk Yuanming was still saying this, seemingly mumbling to himself: "My junior sister has never had any feelings for love in all these years, which is why her cultivation has stagnated. Now that she has a lover, I, as her senior brother, am happy for her. After all, as long as she survives this love tribulation, she will be closer to ascending to the immortal path. I am afraid that the goals that my senior brother and I have not been able to achieve in our lifetime will have to be placed on my junior sister."

After saying that, he looked at Lin Ji Chen, his cloudy eyes carrying a hint of sadness.

"Master Lin, if you can help my sister survive this catastrophe, our Buddhist sect will be extremely grateful and is willing to release the snake demon under the Demon Suppression Tower. What do you think?"

Lin Ji Chen remained calm but was sneering in his heart. He knew that the monk had bad intentions and was trying to negotiate a deal with him.

Whether the snake demon is released or not has nothing to do with him. He just came here to burn the Lotus Heart Sutra and let Huangfu Yi go home.

As long as this goal is achieved, who cares whether Huangfu Yi can reunite with his family? Is this his concern? Huangfu Song, as the elder brother, doesn't care. He doesn't have the time.

Moreover, he hated this way of trading from the bottom of his heart.

"Master, do you think that meeting your loved one is a calamity for you? You monks like to use those who truly love you as stepping stones and sacrifices for your calamity. How is that different from those people in the Hehuan Sect who use the opposite sex as a cauldron?"

Lin Ji Chen's words were sharp and his tone was sarcastic.

Yuanming was not angry, he just said: "Everything in the world has cause and effect, what you said is too serious, it is necessary to go through tribulation to practice, how can you compare it with those demonic cultivators of Hehuan Sect."

"Then I will explain clearly to the master that I have a close relationship with Jingyi Shenni, regardless of age difference. I have always regarded her as an elder, and Jingyi Shenni has always treated me as a junior. There is absolutely no other affair between us, and there has never been any in the past, there is no present, and there will never be any in the future."

Lin Jichen's words were sonorous and powerful, and they landed loudly.

Yuanming just smiled without saying anything. While the two were arguing, they had unknowingly arrived in front of the Demon-Suppressing Tower.

Lin Ji Chen took a quick look and found that the Demon-Suppressing Tower was heavily guarded, with a large number of disciples guarding outside the tower. He could also sense the auras of many masters from many hidden corners around it.

If he wanted to take Huangfu Yi away by force today, it would be impossible. Once he took action, the entire Putuo Temple would be alarmed. Besides, he was not so stupid as to use such a reckless method.

At this time, a monk in white clothes sweeping the floor caught his sight. This person's cultivation was average, and his face looked very familiar, very similar to Huangfu Song.

Lin Jichen immediately recognized the man's identity, and Yuanming also got straight to the point and said, "Jie Nian, come here for a moment."

The monk who was sweeping the floor immediately put down his broom and walked over, bowing respectfully and saying, "Disciple Jie Nian greets the master!"

"Master?" Lin Ji Chen was stunned.

Yuanming chuckled and nodded: "Jie Nian has already become my disciple and is my registered disciple."

Then, Yuanming introduced to Jie Nian: "This donor came to Putuo Temple specifically on behalf of the Wuji royal family to find you and take you back."

Unexpectedly, as soon as Yuanming finished speaking, Jie Nian refused without even thinking about it.

"I am not going anywhere, benefactor, please go back. I have voluntarily converted to Buddhism and have long since severed ties with the Wuji Imperial Family. Please do not come again."

Yuanming smiled and looked at Lin Jichen, as if he had already won.

Lin Jichen was not in a hurry and said calmly: "I am not only here to see you on behalf of the Wuji Royal Family, but also for your child."

Jie Nian was obviously stunned, then asked with a shocked expression: "You found my child?"

"You still care about your children. As your father, I have never thought about your children at all." Lin Ji Chen said sarcastically.

Jie Nian looked ashamed, lowered his head, and choked up, "I am indeed unworthy of being a father. Has he been doing well these years?"

"Very good. Being ostracized by all the monsters, sleeping in the open air, eating raw meat and drinking blood, and being forced into the monster clan's forbidden land, living a life worse than death."

Lin Ji Chen spoke in a teasing tone, but Jie Nian felt more and more painful the more he listened. This iron man couldn't help but burst into tears.

It’s not that he didn’t want to find his child, but he really couldn’t let go of his wife. Between his wife and child, he chose the former.

"Where is my child? Take me to him."

Hearing this, Lin Ji Chen finally smiled, thinking that this trip was not in vain.

"Master, I have not yet completed my earthly ties. I beg you to allow me to leave the mountain. Once I have settled my son, I will immediately return to the sect to apologize."

Yuan Ming did not stop him upon hearing this, but said to Lin Ji Chen with a hint of helplessness: "Donor Lin, you win."

Lin Jichen smiled back and said, "I just want the child to find his father. Thank you for your help, Master."

Having said that, Lin Ji Chen happily handed over the Vairocana Seal, and then led Yuanming away with satisfaction.

However, just as the two of them walked out of Putuo Temple, a game announcement suddenly sounded, and Lin Jichen's face suddenly changed!
