chapter 159

The two top-level Patriarchs of Tianbei City had perished after Shaolin's death.

Everyone was immersed in grief.

Many people couldn't accept it.

Many people had complaints about Shaolin because of this.

They thought that Shaolin had made such a big scene and caused such a big commotion, but he didn't do anything.

He only cared about pretending to be mysterious.

He only knew how to be mysterious.

Let me ask you, what did Shaolin do?

If he didn't have the ability, then he shouldn't have stood out to show off and made everyone's expectations so high.

In the end, they couldn't accept it.

The impact of the death of the two Patriarchs was not small.

And at this moment.

Xuanxin chanted a Buddhist name, which directly exploded in everyone's ears.

Everyone's eyes were gathered on Xuanxin again.

What surprised everyone was that a ball of golden Buddhist light appeared in front of Xuanxin.

From the golden Buddhist light, a shadow appeared. This shadow gradually solidified and transformed into a human figure.

This figure was illusory and emitted a righteous Buddhist aura.

Everyone felt a powerful fluctuation of Divine Soul energy.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth swarmed over, setting off waves of astral winds. The endless spiritual energy of heaven and earth condensed into a spirit pill.

On the spirit pill, mysterious Dao patterns appeared.

The shadow gradually turned corporeal.

It had the bearing of an eminent monk.

It was Monk Zhiyun, who had just died and turned into ashes under the Heavenly Thunder Might.

The golden light on his body dissipated, and Monk Zhiyun walked out of the Buddhist light. He knelt in front of Xuanxin and bowed devoutly again and again.

The crowd of pilgrims and believers was stunned by the scene in front of them.

Their eyes widened in shock.

They only felt their scalps go numb. Many people even rubbed their eyes.

Or perhaps, he had slapped himself.

They couldn't believe their eyes.

This wasn't a dream. Everything in front of them was real.

Didn't Monk Zhiyun die under the Heavenly Thunder Might and turn into ashes?

How did he come back to life?

What was going on?

"Am I seeing things?"

"Oh my god, am I seeing things? Is that really Monk Zhiyun? "

"How could Monk Zhiyun still be alive? His physical body has already been reduced to ashes by the Heavenly Tribulation. "

"Is it an illusion? This can't be fake, right? "

"Monk Zhiyun didn't die? Was he revived by Abbot Xuanxin?"

"Heavens, this is too scary. Is Monk Zhiyun a human or a ghost?"

"Don't speak nonsense. Senior Monk Zhiyun's aura is the aura of righteousness and righteousness. How could he be a ghost?"

"Something's not right. Monk Zhiyun is emitting waves of Divine Soul energy. His body is …"

…

All the pilgrims and believers were in an uproar.

All of them had excited expressions as they looked at Senior Monk Zhiyun, who was kneeling before Xuanxin.

Monk Zhiyun actually didn't die. He actually came back to life.

Then what was with the scene of the Heavenly Thunder and Heavenly Might that they had just seen?

They could even feel the aura emitted from Monk Zhiyun's body. The Divine Soul energy was especially strong.

Guang Liang, Ji Yuan, An Ruyun, and Nangong Wentian were all trembling.

They couldn't believe their eyes.

They looked at Monk Zhiyun, who was kneeling before Xuanxin, with their eyes wide open. They were so excited that their breathing quickened.

"Ancestral Master …"

Guang Liang was so excited that he rushed forward and shouted in a choked voice.

He reached out and wanted to grab Zhiyun's body tightly.

However, he realized that he had grabbed nothing.

Monk Zhiyun's physical body was illusory.

It was formed by a ball of Divine Soul energy and Spiritual Qi. It looked solid, but it was actually illusory.

"Abbot Xuanxin, what's going on?"

"My Ancestral Master …"

Guang Liang looked at Xuan Xin in surprise as he failed to grab anything.

He desperately wanted to know the answer.

"There are no shortcuts on the path of martial arts."

"Monk Zhiyun succeeded in forming his core and broke through to the Golden Core stage. However, he exceeded his limits and his physical body couldn't take it and turned into ashes. However, I managed to preserve his Divine Soul."

Xuanxin stood up and clasped his hands together. His expression was calm as he spoke in a calm tone.

The Sect's construction that had appeared previously was the Stairway to Heaven Trial.

Xuanxin had absorbed Monk Zhiyun's Divine Soul. Under the test and help of the Stairway to Heaven Trial, Monk Zhiyun had succeeded in forming his core and breaking through.

Although his physical body had turned into ashes, Xuanxin had preserved his Divine Soul.

Monk Zhiyun was now living in the form of a Divine Soul.

He had condensed a Spirit Core and entrusted his Divine Soul to the Sect to construct the Stairway to Heaven Trial.

It could be said that if it weren't for Xuanxin, Monk Zhiyun would not have succeeded in forming his core and engraved the Elixir Veins.

He had successfully broken through to the Golden Core stage and survived in the form of a Divine Soul.

His outcome would have been the same as Grandma Zihua's. He would have failed to form his core and died.

Monk Zhiyun was able to survive in the form of a Divine Soul.

Firstly, he had successfully formed his core and engraved the Dao Veins. He had successfully broken through to the Golden Core stage.

Secondly, Monk Zhiyun's Divine Soul had already merged with the Stairway to Heaven Trial. Otherwise, with Monk Zhiyun's Martial Dao realm, he would not have been able to survive in the form of a Divine Soul.

Guang Liang, Ji Yuan, An Ruyun, and Nangong Wentian were all enlightened after hearing this.

Guang Liang was so happy that he cried.

"Abbot Xuanxin, I thank you for your kindness …"

Guang Liang also knelt in front of Xuanxin and bowed deeply to Xuanxin.

Monk Zhiyun was still alive and had successfully broken through to the Golden Core stage.

Although his physical body was gone, that was not important …

As long as a Golden Core Patriarch was still alive, he was a valuable asset to the Sect.

He was an extremely valuable resource.

"Abbot Xuanxin, my Patriarch, Grandma Zihua …"

An Ruyun knelt in front of Xuanxin eagerly. Monk Zhiyun had clearly died.

Yet, he had miraculously revived.

An Ruyun couldn't help but feel a trace of anticipation in her heart.

"Amitabha, I am powerless."

Xuan Xin shook her head, her face was filled with pity and regret.

"Ah …"

An Ruyun was in a daze. She regretted that she had not been at the crucial moment when Grandma Zihua was breaking through to the Core Formation stage.

She had asked Abbot Xuanxin to come out.

Otherwise, Grandma Zihua would have been able to break through to the Golden Core stage like Monk Zhiyun and survive in the form of a Divine Soul.

"Abbot, I thank you for your kindness."

"If not for Abbot's help, I would not have been able to break through to the Core Formation stage. I would not have been able to complete the Martial Dao and engrave the Dao pattern."

"I would not have been able to break through to the Golden Core stage. I would not have been able to survive in the world with my Divine Soul under the power of the heavenly thunder."

"Shaolin has reborn me. Abbot Xuanxin is like my Master."

"Today, I have merged with Shaolin and am relying on Shaolin's Dharma. I beg Abbot Xuanxin to take me in and become a monk under Shaolin."

In front of Xuan Xin, Senior Monk Zhiyun bowed again and again.

He was extremely sincere.

The excitement and urgency in his heart were self-evident.
