Fire dragon temple

The dilapidated temple was covered with weeds and moss. Occasionally, black crows could be heard crying in the sky.

At this time, the sky had darkened, giving off a cold and gloomy feeling.

"This is the old site of the Fire Dragon Temple." Lu Peng looked at the dilapidated temple that stretched as far as the eye could see and sighed, "Back then, the Fire Dragon Temple was so prosperous. I heard that at its peak, people lined up from the mountain peak to the foot of the mountain to offer incense. The line sometimes stretched for several hundred li."

"Unfortunately, after the Tan Family destroyed the Fire Dragon Temple, this Buddhist temple turned into a ghost land."

Lu Yiping nodded, and the war chariot slowly moved forward.

When the war chariot rolled over the ground, the sound of sand shattering could be heard.

Soon, the war chariot entered the depths of the dilapidated temple ruins.

Along the way, broken stone pillars and Buddha statues that had sunk into the ground could be seen everywhere. There were all kinds of scriptures and diagrams carved on the stone pillars.

As for the Buddha statues, there were thousands of different shapes, mottled with traces of decay in many places.

It had been more than ten thousand years since the Fire Dragon Temple's destruction. Many of the buildings in the temple had turned into rubble.

"Young Master, further ahead is the Fire Dragon Temple's Buddha Cavern. It was where the Fire Dragon Temple's treasures were hidden. However, after the Tan Family destroyed the Fire Dragon Temple, the Tan Family took all the treasures inside." Lu Peng said, "Now, the Fire Dragon Temple's Buddha Cavern has become the Tan Family's puppet refining place."

"The Tan Family has marked that place as a forbidden area. No one dares to go near it."

"Not even a hundred li away. Some experts who went near it were captured by the Tan Family and refined into puppets."

While Lu Peng was explaining, Lu Yiping suddenly said, "The Tan Family occupied this place to look for the Fire Dragon Buddhist Scripture, right?"

Back then, when the Tan Family destroyed the Fire Dragon Temple, they plundered the Fire Dragon Temple's countless Buddhist scriptures, cultivation techniques, and ultimate techniques. However, they could not find the Fire Dragon Buddhist Scripture.

There were many theories about the Fire Dragon Buddhist Scripture.

Some said that the Fire Dragon Buddhist Scripture was a Buddhist cultivation technique left behind by an Arhat in the Buddhist World. After cultivating it to major completion, one would possess the power of the Dragon Buddha and could mold one's physical body into an indestructible golden body.

Some said that the Fire Dragon Buddhist Scripture was created by an ancient Buddha. After cultivating it, one's lifespan would increase greatly and break through the limit of one hundred thousand years.

Furthermore, the Fire Dragon Buddhist Scripture itself contained the power of Buddhism. Carrying it on one's body could repel all kinds of evil spirits and suppress all kinds of ghosts and corpses.

Thus, this was also the reason why the Tan family was still painstakingly searching for the Fire Dragon Buddhist Scripture.

Hearing Lu Yiping mention the Fire Dragon Buddhist Scripture, Lu Peng smiled and said, "I'm afraid that the Fire Dragon Buddhist Scripture is not in the Fire Dragon Temple. Otherwise, the Tan Family would have found it after so many years."

For so many years, the Tan Clan had searched every nook and cranny of the Fire Dragon Temple no less than ten times, but there was still no sign of the Fire Dragon Buddhist Scripture.

Lu Yiping's eyes were deep as he looked towards the depths of the Fire Dragon Temple and said, "That may not be the case."

Lu Peng was stunned and said, "Young Master, the Tan Clan's forbidden area is ten miles ahead."

"There are always experts from the Tan family patrolling that place."

"A few years ago, several of our Asura's Gate Grand Elders passed by and were captured by the Tan Family's experts."

As for the fate of those Asura's Gate Grand Elders, it goes without saying.

Right at this time, the sound of whistling wind came from behind them. A large group of black-clothed men were flying towards them at lightning speed, arriving behind them in the blink of an eye.

These black-clothed men had their faces covered, but judging from their attire, they were not from the Tan Family.

This group of black-clothed men also saw Lu Yiping's group.

The black-clothed leader's gaze paused on Lu Yiping.

"Lord, should we hand them over?" One of his subordinates stepped forward and asked. His intention was to take care of Lu Yiping's group while he was at it. After all, their operation tonight should not be seen by others.

The black-clothed leader hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, it's better to avoid unnecessary trouble. Proper business is more important." He then led the group away.

In the blink of an eye, they disappeared into the darkness of the night.

Taurus Longjiao watched the black-clothed men leave and chuckled. He licked his lips and said, "This group of black-clothed men, I thought they were going to make a move."

"However, looking at the direction they are heading, they should be heading to the Buddha Cave of the Fire Dragon Temple."

Lu Yiping ordered Taurus Longjiao to follow them.

Not long after, he heard a loud bang, followed by a shocking energy fluctuation.

It seemed like a fight had broken out.

When Lu Yiping's group arrived, they saw that the main hall in front of them had been blasted into a pile of dust. On the ground in the distance, there were more than a dozen corpses.

"It's the Tan Family's experts." Lu Peng exclaimed when he saw the corpses.

It was obvious that the black-clothed men were the culprits.

In the Hengyuan World, everyone's expression changed when they talked about the Tan Family. Someone actually dared to kill the Tan Family's disciples!

Moreover, this stronghold was one of the more important strongholds of the Tan Family.

However, the Tan Family had annihilated many sects, so naturally, they had many enemies.

Lu Yiping's group continued forward.

Along the way, they saw the corpses of the Tan Family's experts.

The group of black-clothed men who came were all experts.

In the end, they arrived at the depths of the Buddha Cave of the Fire Dragon Temple.

In the open space in front of them, the group of black-clothed men was fighting with a group of Tan Family's experts. These Tan Family's experts were not weak, and each of them had a powerful puppet by their side. The group of black-clothed men encountered a lot of resistance.

The group of black-clothed men and Tan Family's experts were surprised to see Lu Yiping's group.

The leader of the black-clothed men frowned.

Of course, they didn't want anyone to see what happened tonight.

Right at this time, one of the Tan Family's experts abruptly attacked Lu Yiping's group with a puppet.

However, when this Tan Family's expert and his puppet were about to attack Lu Yiping, they suddenly froze. Then, like scattered sand, they shattered and scattered with the wind.

Seeing this strange scene, the black-clothed men jumped in fright.

That Tan Family's expert was a First Layer Emperor Realm expert.

A first-layer Martial Monarch Realm expert had turned into dust, just like that!

The Tan Family's expert was also shocked.

However, what made the black-clothed men and Tan Family's experts slightly relieved was that Lu Yiping's group did not continue to attack.

Lu Yiping ignored the black-clothed men and Tan Family's experts, continuing to move deeper into the Buddha Cavern.

As they moved deeper into the Buddha Cavern, they were constantly attacked by Tan Family's experts. However, with Zhang Jin's group of four paving the way, Lu Yiping and Taurus Longjiao did not attack.

Their journey was smooth.

In the end, they arrived at the deepest part of the Buddha Cavern.

In the deepest part of the Buddha Cavern was a huge Buddha City. Buddha statues could be seen everywhere, and the buildings here were well-preserved. They were all left behind by the Fire Dragon Temple.

The Buddha City was empty.

Lu Peng was puzzled, not understanding why Lu Yiping came to the deepest part of the Buddha Cavern.

There was nothing in the deepest part of the Buddha Cavern.

Suddenly, he saw Lu Yiping grabbing at the void in front of him. Light rippled in the void, then an ancient Buddha character appeared.

This ancient Buddha character gave Lu Peng and the others a strange feeling.
