280: Chapter 280 Elder Kuchan of Yunyin Temple
The refined Cultivator said, "Debating scriptures is exactly what it sounds like."
"It means someone comes here to debate scriptures with the monks inside."
"They argue over their understanding of the Dharma!"
"As you all know, a single line of Dharma can be interpreted in a thousand different ways!"
"Everyone has a different understanding of the Dharma."
"When they debate, they analyze and argue their interpretations of the Dharma."
"Afterwards, it becomes easier to understand the essence of the Dharma."
"That is why the Nascent Soul Cultivator above will not stop these scripture debates!"
"It is beneficial for the spread of the Dharma!"
"The upper echelons of the temple are also happy to see it!"
"However, why is it called 'kicking the hall'?"
"It's because others think your understanding of the Dharma is insufficient, so they proclaim it loudly and come to debate you!"
"Coming to debate you means they look down on you."
"This is also the reason why the Buddhist Cultivator inside the Buddhist-Daoist Monastery is so angry."
At this moment, several people nearby nodded secretly, seemingly accepting this explanation.
Gu Changan had his back to them, remaining calm, but every word of their discussion entered his ears.
He began to ponder if there were any opportunities to exploit.
Debating the Dharma wouldn't lead to a fight, so what should he do?
At this time, someone asked, "Isn't there only one Buddhist-Daoist Monastery here?"
"Where are those who came to debate the scriptures from?"
"Where did they pop up from?"
The refined Cultivator sighed, then turned his gaze toward the distant main hall of the temple.
He then withdrew his gaze and said, "Believe it or not, I actually know where they are from!"
"By the way, do you know when the Buddhist-Daoist Monastery was established here?"
At this moment, the people nearby all shook their heads.
The refined Cultivator put the hand holding his folding fan behind his back.
"I won't make things difficult for you!"
"I'll tell you about it!"
"The Buddhist-Daoist Monastery has been here for thousands of years."
"Back then, it was a world where the Dao of Buddha flourished, but all things have Reincarnation."
"After the Dao of Buddha weakened, other Cultivators surrounded and intercepted them."
"They had no choice but to take root in the Hundred Thousand Mountains to multiply and preserve a trace of their incense."
"And this incense has been passed down until today, becoming the Buddhist-Daoist Monastery of today."
At this time, someone asked again, "Fellow Daoist, you still haven't said who the people coming to challenge the school are."
The refined Cultivator glanced at him, "Don't be impatient!"
"The Buddhist-Daoist Monastery was a fairly famous force in their era."
"Since it has survived as a Legacy!"
"Then other Buddhist forces from other eras have also survived as a Legacy."
"Therefore, the Buddhist forces of each era govern themselves!"
"They all consider themselves the orthodox, so it's normal for them to dislike each other!"
One of them suddenly realized, "In that case, is this a clash between Peak forces from two different eras?"
The refined Cultivator nodded; these people finally understood.
Gu Changan was thinking, "As expected, one cannot underestimate anyone in the world!"
Being so young and knowing everything so clearly, does he have books on this subject at home?
Looking at it this way, one cannot underestimate every old antique!
Even more so, one cannot underestimate these forces with a Legacy in the world; after all, a starved camel is still bigger than a horse.
Who knows if they have any special means after being passed down for so long?
The refined Cultivator said, "As far as I know, the Buddhist Cultivator of the other side is called Lingyin Temple, which was also an existence that spread across the entire Cultivation World."
"Later, it slowly declined, and now I don't know what happened to it?"
"They actually set their sights on the Buddhist-Daoist Monastery."
At this moment, an older Cultivator showed a thoughtful look, "There is no such thing as an uncaused event in the world."
"Just as there is no love without a reason, there is no hate without a reason."
"Since they came to debate the scriptures, there must be things we don't know involved."
"The things in the world are nothing more than two types: fame and fortune."
The refined Cultivator showed a look of surprise and bowed to the older Cultivator.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for your guidance."
"Now that you put it that way, I understand."
"I was still wondering, you said the two sides are debating scriptures, and the prize is actually an immaculate fruit?"
"After Fellow Daoist's analysis, the matter is already clear."
"It must be that the monks of Yunyin Temple have taken a fancy to the immaculate fruit."
"So this is also the origin of this scripture debate."
At this moment, the few Cultivators nearby who had stopped to listen all showed expressions of sudden realization.
Gu Changan suppressed the excitement in his heart and slowly walked to the bench next to the corridor to sit down.
This way, he could listen to their conversation without appearing abrupt.
At this time, the older Cultivator asked, "Fellow Daoist is well-informed, have you heard what the prize from Yunyin Temple is?"
"It's impossible that only the Buddhist-Daoist Monastery would put up a prize, right?"
"And it was Yunyin Temple that took a fancy to their things!"
The refined Cultivator thought for a moment, "It seems to be some kind of temple Legacy, the Buddhist scriptures that swept through the entire era at that time."
The older Cultivator nodded, "That makes it easier to understand."
"One is a temple Legacy, the other is a relatively scarce spiritual material; the value is roughly equivalent."
"However, I am very curious, who is the leader of Yunyin Temple this time?"
The people in the refined Cultivator's Family have heaven-reaching means, so this bit of information naturally could not stump him.
"It is said to be Elder Ku Chan, with roughly Golden Core Perfection cultivation."
"He has a deep attainment in the Withered-Prosperous Technique."
At this moment, the circle of people all felt that their trip was worthwhile.
Hearing about the major event that was about to happen, they all felt that they were ahead of other Cultivators.
Gu Changan was calculating in his heart; the two sides were conducting a scripture debate.
One side was talking about a Legacy, and the other side was putting up an immaculate fruit.
The immaculate fruit happened to be his goal this time.
If Elder Ku Chan won the scripture debate, then he could take away the immaculate fruit.
He could then intercept it; after all, once he left the Buddhist-Daoist Monastery, it would have nothing to do with the Buddhist-Daoist Monastery anymore.
Gu Changan did not believe that an Elder Ku Chan coming to debate scriptures would be escorted by a Nascent Soul Cultivator?
After all, he had never heard of Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators being so worthless!
Then he must have an opportunity to exploit?
However, since he had set his sights on this immaculate fruit, perhaps other Cultivators had set their sights on it too.
After all, the heroes of the world are like crucian carp crossing the river.
He was just one of the few among them.
It seems that while he makes his move to snatch it, he must also prevent others from fishing in troubled waters.
There is also a possibility that Elder Ku Chan fails the scripture debate!
Then the immaculate fruit would naturally have no connection to him, and if he wanted to obtain it, he would have to find another way.
Afterwards, Gu Changan had a flash of inspiration.
Even if he fails, there is a way to handle failure!
He could disguise himself as a Buddhist Cultivator of Elder Ku Chan and steal it.
But this method is, the danger is really too great!
For one, he didn't know where the Golden Cicada of the Buddhist-Daoist Monastery was?
Perhaps every move in the entire Buddhist-Daoist Monastery was under their Divine Sense.
Even if he disguised himself as a Buddhist Cultivator of Elder Ku Chan, that would be courting death!
