Chapter 6615
White-robed Monk
In a secret place deep in the mountains, a cave slowly opened and a white-robed monk walked out.
He was holding a jade talisman, with a gloomy expression on his face and anger flashing in his eyes.
"Who on earth is this bastard who dares to destroy the rune array I set up?"
"This matter must be dealt with, and we must not let it go!"
After pondering for a few breaths, the white-robed monk went to the sect's External Affairs Hall and applied to be allowed to go out for a while.
After obtaining approval, he immediately set up his magic boat and left the deep mountains and forests where the sect was located.
The destination of this trip is a town in the desert thousands of miles away that is about to be destroyed.
Although the spirit boat is fast, it is not as fast as lightning. It can only fly two hundred kilometers per hour at most.
After flying for nearly a day, we finally reached the edge of the desert and saw the town half covered by yellow sand.
The sight of nine out of ten rooms being empty made the monk snort coldly, and he felt happy in his heart.
However, the windless environment made him frown, and he once again set up the spirit boat and flew into the depths of the desert.
Not long after, he arrived near the Magnet Mountain and saw the crack in the rune array.
Walking forward to take a look, I found that the rune array was indeed destroyed. No wonder it no longer blew sand into the city.
Ordinary people cannot do this, so it must be the work of a cultivator, but we don’t know what the other party’s purpose is.
This rune array was built to punish the enemy, and destroying it would be equivalent to going against him.
No matter who the other person is, you must have a good talk with him/her when you meet him/her next time.
The monk was filled with anger and was ready to go forward to repair it, but as soon as his spiritual sense touched the damaged area, he suddenly felt a huge force coming.
"not good!"
The monk was shocked. He didn't expect that there was such a dangerous trap hidden inside the damaged magic circle.
In the chaos, he tried to dodge, but was restrained by an invisible force.
Two magnetic forces suddenly erupted, fixing him firmly in place. Unless he destroyed the magnet mountain or released greater power to break free from control, he would remain trapped here.
The white-robed monk was proficient in formations, but he was shocked by the means displayed in a flash and felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
Ever since he became a formation master, he has always been in control of the situation, only making others panic because of the rune formations.
This was the first time that he was controlled by a rune array and couldn't find a way to escape.
Panic arose in my heart and became stronger and stronger.
There is always someone stronger than you. There is always someone higher than you. The master's teachings flashed through his mind, but he had never taken them seriously in the past.
But at this moment, in front of the more powerful formation master, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
He was helpless and frightened in his heart, but he refused to give in.
"What is your intention, Excellency? Why do you want to help those evil mortals? Shouldn't they be punished?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Zhen appeared from the top of the Magnet Mountain and looked down at the monks.
"Then tell me why they should be punished?"
Upon hearing this, the white-robed monk immediately showed an angry expression and began to recount an incident that happened several decades ago.
He has a younger sister who was abducted by human traffickers and eventually sent to this border town.
After learning the news, he tracked down the girl all the way and, after going through untold hardships, finally rescued his sister.
After investigation, it was found that local officials and wealthy businessmen were colluding behind this incident.
Due to restrictions of the rules, monks cannot kill people in large numbers, otherwise they will be punished by law enforcers.
He killed several culprits, but still felt a lot of resentment, so he designed this rune array.
The sinful city was filled with sand, and all the evil family's assets were buried under the sand, eventually leading to bankruptcy.
After listening to the monk's story, Tang Zhen couldn't help but sneer, with a sarcastic expression on his face.
"You are such a brainless idiot, your practice has really damaged your brain.
Your approach will not punish the evil and powerful, but will only implicate innocent people.
If you don’t believe me, go and ask around. After this city was buried by sand, the first people to flee were your enemies.
"These people in the city have no grudge against you, but you let them go hungry all day long. Why don't I call them here and tell them that you are the culprit, and see how the residents of the city will take revenge!"
When the monk heard this, his expression suddenly changed.
"What I did was just for revenge, which is understandable..."
"The people in the city were also seeking revenge, and they are also not at fault."
After being ridiculed by Tang Zhen, the white-robed monk couldn't help but blush. He wanted to argue, but unfortunately he was controlled by others and felt that he lacked confidence.
If Tang Zhen really took action to stand up for the town residents, then he would have nothing to say.
After all, this matter really had nothing to do with the residents of the city, but was only affected by his anger.
In fact, he had known this for a long time, but he stubbornly believed that he was not wrong. Besides, even if he was wrong, it didn't matter.
They are just a bunch of ants, no need to care about them at all.
Seeing the monk's expression changing, Tang Zhen shook his head, thinking to himself that he was another pedantic monk who didn't understand the ways of the world.
Having a talent for cultivation does not mean being excellent in all aspects. Many cultivators are like dull nerds.
He usually practices seclusion and does not interact with outsiders. He has a strange and paranoid personality and habits.
However, these monks are completely unaware of their own shortcomings and still think they have the character of immortals.
The idea that immortals are omnipotent is nothing more than the imagination and beautification of ordinary people. The complex personalities and diversity of practitioners are far more extreme than those of ordinary people.
There are many practitioners who go deep into the secular world every once in a while to gain experience under the guidance of their sect elders.
See the world and make up for your own shortcomings instead of being a fool who knows nothing about the world.
In the world of cultivation, there are also rivers and lakes, and there are also human relationships and worldly wisdom.
If you don't understand some things, you will not be able to move forward in the world, and you may suffer a great loss or even lose your life.
In the process of cultivation, because the mind is not perfect enough, it is easier to be invaded by inner demons.
Once it cannot be controlled, it will lead to possession. Even if it can be cured, it will affect future practice.
When one's realm becomes higher, one will need to transform into a mortal and travel the human world so that one's heart of Tao can be further perfected.
The cultivator in front of him might have experienced worldly trials, but he was stubborn and had not learned much, otherwise he would not have done such a thing.
He didn't even know that his actions had actually sowed the seeds of disaster, and he had to bear the consequences of the destruction of the city.
The monks in Loucheng are different, because there is no heavenly law in the Loucheng world, and everything is governed by the cornerstone platform.
The cycle of cause and effect caused by invading other planes of life will not affect the monks in Loucheng who have already left.
This monk has walked into a trap, so we must not let him go, otherwise it will cause more trouble.
Tang Zhen did not intend to imprison him, but instead planned to keep him by his side and ask him about some news in the cultivation world.
Although a large-scale information collection investigation was conducted before the operation, it is inevitable that some information will be concealed.
This information can be believed, but not completely trusted. It must be investigated personally.
Otherwise, a small mistake may affect the final outcome when a war breaks out.
Tang Zhen waved his hand casually, and a talisman appeared out of thin air, and then it hit the cultivator's Niwan Palace.
The white-robed monk was stunned at first, then his face turned pale and a trace of despair flashed in his eyes.
He had no idea what means Tang Zhen used to be able to perceive the changes in himself.
Tang Zhen only needs a thought to decide his life or death, and from now on he will have no control over his own life.
He was shocked and angry at this moment. He didn't expect to encounter such a thing. If he had known this would happen, he should not have rashly come here.
This desert town was indeed incompatible with his destiny, otherwise he would not have encountered bad luck twice.
Now that he has fallen into Tang Zhen's hands, his life and death are difficult to control. All he can do next is to act according to circumstances and pray that his own sect will notice something unusual and send out strong men to help him escape from this predicament.
The white-robed monk was annoyed, but Tang Zhen waved his hand to release the restraints and took him back to the city.
