281: Chapter 281 Debating

In such a short time, it would be impossible to break the Formation!

By then, before the Formation could even be broken, their Nascent Soul Ancestor, Jin Chanzi, would have already arrived.

Therefore, if Elder Ku Chan fails the sutra debate, the chances of obtaining the immaculate fruit would be very slim.

As for thinking of other methods or finding a suitable Opportunity, who knows when that might be!

So the best method right now is to let Elder Ku Chan win the sutra debate.

This is the simplest way to obtain the immaculate fruit.

After Gu Changan collected his thoughts, the Cultivators who were discussing in front of him had already dispersed.

Recalling the few groups of people just now, after they received this news, they would definitely think of the immaculate fruit as well!

These were all his potential competitors.

Not to mention the gentle and refined Cultivator from just now; his Family must also possess formidable strength.

He was also a strong competitor for this immaculate fruit.

However, Gu Changan was not panicked at all.

As long as they did not dispatch any Cultivators at the Nascent Soul Stage, he could easily handle them.

As for dispatching Cultivators at the Nascent Soul Stage to snatch the immaculate fruit,

that was even more impossible.

Since they had already reached the Nascent Soul Stage, they likely wouldn't do such a thing.

Such Opportunities were meant for the younger generation to fight over themselves.

After all, no one could protect the younger generation throughout their entire cultivation journey.

Thinking of this, Gu Changan felt much more relaxed.

His chances were still quite high.

After wandering around for a while, Gu Changan returned to his guest room.

He thought of the Little Novice Monk from earlier; it seemed he should build a good relationship with him for future matters.

Future affairs within the Buddhist-Daoist Monastery might need to pass through his hands.

On the side of Spirit Medicine Valley, a few days had already passed.

On the surface, it was calm, but everyone could feel the turbulent undercurrents.

Especially on Medicinal Spirit's side.

Previously, Medicinal Spirit gave the impression of being easy to talk to, but she appeared very strict on the surface.

This was also the reason why everyone was willing to support her.

But for the past two days, for some unknown reason, Medicinal Spirit's temper had changed drastically.

She would throw things at the slightest provocation and had become much harsher towards the Cultivators under her command!

Others couldn't guess the reason, but if Gu Changan were here, he would definitely know what was going on.

It was simply that Medicinal Spirit had become his person!

For these past two days, Medicinal Spirit felt as if the sky had collapsed.

Ever since she consumed the high-grade spirit nurturing pill from that Cultivator last time,

another Restriction had appeared within her Divine Soul.

She couldn't break it no matter what.

However, Medicinal Spirit couldn't go to her father, the Valley Master of Spirit Medicine Valley.

If she did that, for one, it would make her appear incompetent for falling into a trap so easily.

The other reason was that she would lose any chance at the position of Valley Master of Spirit Medicine Valley.

After all, how could a leader allow themselves to be controlled by others?

Even if there was the slightest possibility, it was unacceptable.

Medicinal Spirit had also hoped to go to her Old Ancestor, hoping he would have a way to solve this problem.

But she was an illegitimate daughter, and the Old Ancestor did not care about such minor disputes among the younger generation.

However, any factors of instability would definitely have to be completely erased.

Medicinal Spirit did not dare to gamble with her own fate.

Was she just supposed to let Gu Changan control her at will?

Medicinal Spirit was somewhat unwilling,

she likely felt that the reason Gu Changan controlled her was because of the position of Valley Master of Spirit Medicine Valley.

So, if she didn't fight for this Valley Master position, would that person not let her go?

If it were between freedom and the Valley Master position, she would definitely choose freedom!

She had originally wanted to scheme against him, playing a game of getting something for nothing, but she hadn't expected his target to be her!

If she ascended to the position of Valley Master, then his target would become the entire Spirit Medicine Valley.

Medicinal Spirit suddenly understood.

Even if she didn't get this Valley Master position, she couldn't let others succeed.

Gu Changan was far away at the Buddhist-Daoist Monastery and had no idea that Medicinal Spirit had so much drama going on.

Even if he knew, he wouldn't care, because his main goal had already been achieved.

If the matter with Medicinal Spirit succeeded, it was a bonus; if not, he wouldn't lose anything.

It was just something done in passing anyway.

Back to the Buddhist-Daoist Monastery, it had been overcrowded for days.

Most of them were Mortals, and later, more and more Buddhist Cultivators gathered.

Among them were many who had come to watch the excitement.

These Cultivators had filled up all the guest rooms.

Most of the Mortals were asked to leave; they were only allowed to come up during the day and could not stay overnight.

The guest rooms were all reserved for the Cultivators.

Gu Changan also felt that the time for the sutra debate was drawing nearer.

He also felt a hint of urgency.

That day, the Little Novice Monk at the entrance led a team to start cleaning the guest rooms and decorating the trees and flowers.

They also cleaned the outside until it was spotless.

Gu Changan knew that the main figures were about to arrive.

He called out to ask, "What is going on today?"

The Little Novice Monk looked up in confusion, "Does the Benefactor not know?"

Gu Changan put on an expression of realization, "Are you saying the sutra debate is about to begin?"

The Little Novice Monk bent down to continue cleaning, "They will arrive at noon today!"

"Everyone must go to welcome them by then, to show respect!"

Gu Changan put on an expression of understanding.

Then he tidied up and went out to watch the excitement.

On the surface, he was watching the excitement, but in reality, he was observing which Cultivators were paying attention to this matter.

Were they paying attention to Elder Ku Chan himself, or did they have the same goal as him?

At noon, a team of Cultivators approached from the distance, and the Cultivators watching from all around stopped in mid-air.

Gu Changan was no exception; the Cultivator at the very front was holding a Zen staff that was taller than a person.

He was wearing a golden Daoist robe and his entire body was thin and withered.

He looked just like an old man on the verge of death.

The palm holding the Zen staff was nothing but bone, wrapped in a layer of reddish skin.

Looking at his facial expression, his entire face was covered in wrinkles.

His chin and eyebrows were drooping.

As expected of Elder Ku Chan, it seemed he cultivated the Withered-Prosperous Technique.

Welcoming them were the Buddhist Cultivators of the Buddhist-Daoist Monastery.

Each of them was expressionless, and no one knew what they were really thinking inside.

Gu Changan watched them enter the main hall of the Buddhist-Daoist Monastery.

As for the rest, Gu Changan didn't want to pay attention to how they debated the sutras.

He only wanted to know what the final result would be!

He just stayed outside with everyone else to watch the excitement.

The Buddhist Cultivators guarding the entrance started chanting scriptures from time to time.

This left Gu Changan feeling confused.

Until two or three hours had passed, and Elder Ku Chan walked out with a joyful expression on his face.

The Buddhist Cultivators who had come with him were all wild with joy.

They kept looking at the Buddhist Cultivators of the Buddhist-Daoist Monastery with provocative gazes.

The Buddhist Cultivators of the Buddhist-Daoist Monastery glared back, but they dared not make a move!

After all, they had lost the sutra debate to them; to resort to violence and injure others would be being a sore loser.

How could the Buddhist-Daoist Monastery hold its head high after that?

If they were to make a move, it would have to be in private!

By this time, all the Cultivators outside knew what the situation was.

Couldn't they tell just by looking that Yunyin Temple had won?

This Elder Ku Chan really did have some skills.

Gu Changan also revealed a look of joy; in this way, wasn't the immaculate fruit secure?

However, he scanned them back and forth, but he just didn't know who actually had the immaculate fruit!

Only then did Gu Changan have the mind to observe the cultivation levels of this group of Buddhist Cultivators.

The leader, Elder Ku Chan, was at the Golden Core Stage Perfection, and the four Buddhist Cultivators beside him were at the Late Golden Core Stage.
