The kilometer-long spatial rift was only a medium level, and Zhan Chen estimated the time he could exist in the space-time rift based on his experience of crossing the space-time rift many times, no more than five minutes at most.

And this spatial rift is quite far away from him, and he must go all out to reach it before the time rift closes, that is, he only has a chance to take a look.

However, no matter how slim the chance, Zhan Chen would not give up, he traveled towards the space-time rift at the fastest speed he could move at the moment, and it took nearly three minutes to break through the space-time rift.

Successfully breaking through the space-time rift, Zhan Chen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief again, and his face was filled with a smile of victory.

He began to observe this world, but his heart was soon enveloped by disappointment, the heaven and earth vitality of this world was very thin, it could be said that it was almost nothing, and Zhan Chen even doubted whether he could give birth to a powerful monk in such an environment.

The lack of heaven and earth vitality has caused the mountains, rivers, trees, and animals here to be very "pocket-sized", the highest mountain is only three or four thousand meters, the widest river is only three hundred zhang, and the trees are only twenty or thirty meters highest.

The atmosphere here is very thin, so Zhan Chen's vision is very broad, and he can even see the sea at a glance, and when he looks up, he can see through the clouds and see the stars in the sky.

He couldn't help but shake his head and sighed, "This is definitely not the Wanfa Continent, it seems that I have to go back to the space-time rift and continue to wait for the opportunity." ”

Zhan Chen dared to turn around and go back, but the corner of his eye just swept over a mountain peak, and he couldn't help but be stunned, and stopped at his feet.

It turned out that he saw a temple built on the mountainside, and a large number of monks lived in it.

"Temple, isn't this a unique building of Buddhism?" Zhan Chen recalled his experience when he was in the Wanfa Continent, whenever there was a place where Buddhism was active, monks would build a temple to spread the Dharma.

Zhan Chen's heart stirred: "How can there be a temple in this world? Could it be that Patriarch Bodhidharma has been here? Or rather, Patriarch Bodhidharma is staying in this world! ”

Just when he hesitated, the space-time rift behind him began to close, and Zhan Chen suddenly became troubled: "What should I do, if Patriarch Bodhidharma has been here before, I must stay and have a good look, maybe I can find a way to break through the Buddha realm, but if I don't return to the space-time rift now, maybe I will have to stay in this world forever, and I will never be able to return to the Ten Thousand Laws Continent." ”

At this moment, Zhan Chen was in a dilemma, the opening of the space-time crack was rapidly shrinking, how he wanted to rush into that darkness, but for some reason, it was like a nail under his feet, it was difficult to take a step, and a voice in his heart shouted loudly to him: "Stay, you must stay!"

Just when he was deep in thought, the space-time rift helped him make a decision, quickly closed, and by the time Zhan Chen returned to the level, the original ground was already empty.

He couldn't help but sigh and muttered: "That's it, this time it's up to fate, if you come, you will be safe, I will go to the temple to inquire about the situation first." ”

So, Zhan Chen landed on the hill at his feet and walked in the direction of the temple on foot. When he came to the peak where the temple was located, he found that there were many people who went up the mountain, these people were mortals, inferior to the warriors on the Beihai Continent, and they could lift hundreds of catties of things at most.

Zhan Chen remained silent, followed those people up the mountain, and found that everyone had the same purpose, that is, to enter the temple. After entering the temple, those people took out incense candles, lit incense to the Bodhisattvas in the Mahavira Temple, and bowed to them, with a devout face on their faces.

Zhan Chen's eyes were firmly locked on the golden bodies of the Bodhisattvas standing around the Daxiong Treasure Hall, although the postures and clothes of these Bodhisattvas were slightly different from what they saw in the Bodhidharma Patriarch's cave, but their faces and postures were eight or nine points similar to the murals of Bodhidharma Patriarch.

This is the Buddha, that is the eighteen arhats, that Manjushri Bodhisattva...... Every familiar name was about to come out in Zhan Chen's heart, and his eyes became brighter and brighter: "Yes, there can't be a fake, Patriarch Bodhidharma must have been here, otherwise there is no explanation at all why the murals he painted appear here!"

At this moment, a voice came from the side, interrupting his thoughts: "Donor, what are you looking at?"

Zhan Chen couldn't understand what he was saying at all, but when he turned his head, he saw that the person who was talking to him was an old man in a yellow monk's robe with a gray beard and a kind face, but although he had all the eyebrows and beards, he was less than a hundred years old, not even a fraction of Zhan Chen's age.

The battlefield quickly realized that he was just a mortal, and the mortals here were even weaker than those on the Beihai continent, even so, he didn't dare to be rude, and made a Buddhist salute to the other party, using his soul to send him a message: "May I ask the name of the high monk?"

The monk was startled, and then asked, "Who are you, and how can you speak in my heart?"

Zhan Chen is now a powerhouse of ten thousand laws, so he naturally immediately grasped the other party's inner activities, so he explained: "I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Zhan Chen, I am from another world, I am a newcomer, and I don't understand the language of this place." ”

The senior monk suddenly realized that he introduced himself and said: "My name is Wu Neng, please come here for the donor." ”

Wu Neng led him to the lounge in the back room, and Zhan Chen asked again: "Master Wu Neng, do you have any teaching materials for children to read and write, I want to stay in the temple for a few days." ”

As he spoke, he took out a large piece of silver from his body, which weighed a pound, because he had just seen that in the Mahavira Treasure Hall, someone had thrown such silver into the merit box, and although he did not have silver on him, it was easy for him to conjure a piece now.

Wu Neng has never seen someone take out such a large piece of silver at once, which is a lot of money for their temple, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Donor, this is unacceptable, we have no shortage of food or meditation rooms here, how can we ask you for so much silver?"

Zhan Chen had to smile and said: "Master Wuneng don't postpone it, maybe silver is very precious in your world, but it is something that can be seen everywhere in our world, even if this silver is my donation to the temple." ”

Wu Neng sighed and said, "Then the old man thanked the donor on behalf of the monks of the whole temple." He made a Buddha salute to Zhan Chen, handed down the silver, and then said: "Donor, you are just in time, our temple happens to have education for young monks, so there are some literacy teaching materials, I will go and fetch them for you." ”

"Okay. ”

Wu Neng left first, and after a while he came back, holding a book of basic literacy in his hand, and the next day, Zhan Chen followed Wu Neng to learn the words of this world.

His comprehension was very high, and he mastered all the knowledge that Wu Neng had imparted at once, and after a day, Wu Neng sighed and said, "War benefactor, the old man has nothing to teach you anymore. ”

Zhan Chen thought for a while, and then said, "Then you can tell me about this world." ”

Wu Neng nodded and said, "Okay." So he told Zhan Chen, and through his narration, Zhan Chen gradually understood the basic situation of this world.

It turns out that this place is called the Shenzhou Continent, there are no immortals on the Shenzhou Continent, at most they are just martial artists who practice martial arts, and the immortals who can fly to the sky and escape in this world only exist in myths, and there is no way to verify them at all. In its place was the rule of the royal period, and now the mainland of Shenzhou ruled an empire called the Central Tang Dynasty.

However, Wu Neng seemed to firmly believe that there is great power in this world, and he finally said to Zhan Chen: "Zhan Shi, I firmly believe that this world is protected by gods, and my Buddha is such a powerful being, they purify sentient beings in the underworld, eliminate the suffering of the people, punish evil and promote good, and save sentient beings from fire and water. ”

Zhan Chen thought for a moment and asked again, "Master Wuneng, why do you believe so much?"

Wu Neng also told him many examples of Buddha's Pudu sentient beings, and recounted various visions of the ascension of the enlightened monk after his death.

However, Zhan Chen just listened to the laughter and laughter, these were not exquisite, but at the end, he thought of something, and asked: "Master Wuneng, who founded Buddhism?"
