nThere was no doubt about Martial Arts League’s words.

n

n

nThat young man was not simple for the Martial Arts League to define him as a living immortal.

n

n

nTherefore, when the martial monks were filled with righteous indignation and wanted to go out and teach Lin Qi a lesson.

n

n

nThe abbot, Yongxin did not say a word.

n

n

nHe was speechless.

n

n

nHe was a living immortal. How could they fight against him?

n

n

nThey would not be a match for Lin Qi even if they swarmed out to fight him.

n

n

nMoreover, they would make Shaolin lose its reputation.

n

n

nHow would the world think about them if the news were to spread? How could Shaolin be so shameless facing a young man?

n

n

nAt present, in the Mahavira Hall.

n

n

nYongxin was silent. The other martial monks had indignant looks on their faces. They were still clamoring to go out and teach Lin Qi a lesson.

n

n

n“Senior?”

n

n

n“Abbot?”

n

n

n“Abbot, give us the permission!”

n

n

nThe abbot, Yongxin sighed helplessly. “Everyone, you don’t know that this young man has a background!”

n

n

n“Oh? Could it be that this young man has an extraordinary background?”

n

n

nThe monks stopped their discussion.

n

n

nThey subconsciously thought that Lin Qi was the son of an influential family.

n

n

nAfter all, such a situation was not rare.

n

n

nThere were often influential people who came to the Shaolin Temple to challenge.

n

n

nThe martial monks did not care.

n

n

nOn the contrary, they were even more indignant, “Abbot, so what if this youth is the son of an influential family? He was rude at first. He could say nothing even if we punish him a little.”

n

n

n“Yes, even if the officials of the current dynasty were respectful when they came to Shaolin Temple. How could a youth like him be so rude?”

n

n

nThe martial monks thought that Yongxin was worried about the young man’s background.

n

n

nHowever, Yongxin shook his head. “This young man is not the son of a noble.”

n

n

n“If he is not the son of a noble, then what is his identity?”

n

n

nThe martial monks were stunned and asked suspiciously.

n

n

n“A letter from Martial Arts League. This youth is an immortal of the present age. His martial cultivation is unfathomable.”

n

n

nAll the monks in the hall were stunned when Yongxin said that.

n

n

nAn immortal of the present age?

n

n

nThey were shaken, and they could not believe it.

n

n

nYong Xin knew that they did not believe it by looking at their expressions. He let out a long sigh and said, “It must not be fake since Martial Arts League has said so.”

n

n

nThese martial monks were the core of the Shaolin Temple. Naturally, they knew about the existence of the Martial Arts League.

n

n

nMartial Arts League was the most mysterious organization in the Dragon Country. It was directly managed by the supreme leader.

n

n

nIt had an extremely high status and power, and it was above the local government. It was also responsible for the responsibility of the warriors of the Dragon Country.

n

n

nAlthough these martial monks found it hard to believe in their hearts, they had to accept this fact.

n

n

nEveryone’s expression became strange. The martial monk who was still shouting to teach Lin Qi a lesson just now immediately shut up.

n

n

n“Is there any other expert monk who is willing to accept the challenge?”

n

n

nThe martial monks looked at each other. They looked at each other and then fell silent.

n

n

nWhat kind of joke was that?

n

n

nThe young man was suspected to be a present immortal.

n

n

nThe immortal at present age meant he was an Earth Immortal!

n

n

nHow could they fight against an Earth Immortal!

n

n

nThe highest one was only at the peak of the Precelestial Realm among the martial monks.

n

n

nHe was still a long way from the Saint Core Realm.

n

n

nHe would probably die on the spot if he fought against an Earth Immortal.

n

n

n“Why don’t we ask Shi-shu (brother of their master) to accept the challenge?”

n

n

nA monk spoke out at the moment.

n

n

nYongxin’s eyes lit up.

n

n

nThe Shi-shu that monk mentioned.

n

n

nWas the Saint Core Realm warrior in the Shaolin Temple.

n

n

nOne of the three Saint Core Realm warriors in the Dragon Country.

n

n

nHe was a hidden monk in the Shaolin Buddhist Scripture Library. He usually hid in the Buddhist Scripture Library and rarely came out.

n

n

n“Amitabha. Shi-shu is the only one who can deal with this young man now.”

n

n

nYongxin quickly led a group of monks to look for the hidden monk.

n

n

nIn the Buddhist Scripture Library.

n

n

nIt was the most important place of the Shaolin Temple.

n

n

nIt was located at the top of Mount Song and was surrounded by cliffs.

n

n

nIt had cornice and corners. It was very magnificent.

n

n

nUsually, only monks from the Shaolin Temple could come to the scripture pavilion.

n

n

nTherefore, the surroundings were quiet and calm.

n

n

nA burst of hurried footsteps shattered the calm and silence of the Buddhist Scripture Library at that moment.

n

n

n“Shi-shu! Yongxin requests to meet.”

n

n

nYongxin led all the monks and stood respectfully outside the Buddhist Scripture Library.

n

n

nNo one responded from the Buddhist Scripture Library.

n

n

nYongxin was not surprised and continued, “Shi-shu, a young man suspected to be an Earth Immortal has come to challenge. He is currently outside the mountain gate.”

n

n

n“In the entire temple, only Shi-shu can deal with the current situation.”

n

n

n“This matter concerns the reputation of Shaolin Temple. Otherwise, Yongxin wouldn’t have dared to disturb you, Shi-shu.”

n

n

n“An Earth Immortal?”

n

n

nA mellow and aged voice came from within the Buddhist Scripture Library.

n

n

nYongxin was overjoyed when he heard that.

n

n

nThe hidden monk had lived in seclusion in the Buddhist Scripture Library for decades. Just the time he had lived in seclusion was even older than his age. He rarely showed his face, and the number of people in the Shaolin Temple who had seen the hidden monk was fewer than ten.

n

n

nEven Yongxin had only seen the hidden monk a few times in the past few decades. The hidden monk would not appear at all if there were nothing important.

n

n

nHe would most likely agree to this matter since he responded.

n

n

nHe hurriedly said, “That’s right. It’s not Youngxin talking nonsense, but a message from someone in the Martial Arts League stated that. Then this should not be fake.”

n

n

n“Shi-shu, you have been stuck in the Saint Core Realm for many years. If you can fight with this person, you will be able to break through the barrier and break through the Earth Immortal Realm!”

n

n

n“It will also protect Shaolin’s reputation.”

n

n

nYongxin’s words were beautifully placed. He could not even think of any reason for the hidden monk to refuse.

n

n

nThe hidden monk had lived for nearly a hundred years. The only thing that could affect him was to improve his martial arts. How would he not show up when now that a living Earth Immortal was right in front of him?

n

n

nAs expected.

n

n

nJust as Yongxin finished speaking.

n

n

nClang.

n

n

nA window in the Buddhist Scripture Library opened, and a figure jumped down from it.

n

n

nThat person was wearing a green monk robe. His hair and beard were white, and a transcendent aura was circulating his body. He was none other than the Shaolin hidden monk.

n

n

n“Welcome, Shi-shu!”

n

n

nEveryone’s faces were filled with excitement upon seeing the hidden monk.

n

n

nThat was a mythical figure of Shaolin who had lived for more than a hundred years.

n

n

nShaolin was able to maintain its reputation as the greatest martial arts because of the presence of the hidden monk who was in the Saint Core Realm.

n

n

nThe hidden monk swept his gaze across everyone calmly.

n

n

nHe had been in seclusion in the Buddhist Scripture Library for decades, and that day was the first time he walked out of the Buddhist Scripture Library.

n

n

nHe could not help but feel a little emotional. “I didn’t expect that there would still be people in this world who could become an Earth Immortal.”

n

n

n“Fine, this old monk will go and experience the splendor of an Earth Immortal.”

n

n

nWith that.

n

n

nThe hidden monk moved.

n

n

nHe directly leaped down from the cliff and circled in the air like a great eagle spreading its wings.

n

n

nEveryone’s faces were instantly filled with shock.

n

n

nSaint Core Realm warriors were indeed powerful.

n

n

nThat cliff was over a thousand meters high, and there was a vast forest in the basement.

n

n

nEven a huge rock would be smashed into pieces if it fell from the top of the cliff.

n

n

nHowever…

n

n

nThe hidden monk was safe and sound.

n

n

nHe stepped lightly in the air and rushed toward the gate of the mountain.

n

n

nHe had already disappeared in just a few leaps.

n

n

nAn ordinary person would be so shocked that their jaws would drop out if they saw that scene.

n

n

nIt was not a joke.

n

n

nAn old man over a hundred years old jumped down from the cliff.

n

n

nNot only was he fine, but he was also even running and circling in the air?

n

n

nYongxin and the group of monks looked at each other in shock.

n

n

nWhat was the difference between a hidden monk and an Earth Immortal of the present?

n

n

n“Do you guys think that Shi-shu is a match for that young man?”

n

n

n“It’s hard to say. Perhaps that young man is only at the peak of the Saint Core Realm.”

n

n

n“A Saint Core Realm is already so powerful. I wonder how terrifying an Earth Immortal would be.”

n

n

n“Sigh, I hope Shi-shu can fight against that young man.”
