Chapter 4: This Chan is Not Chan

  【Second update seeking votes! 】

  The mighty sky didn't move, this black giant hammer just emerged with his words. At this time, every word, sentence and action of the mighty sky contained endless killing intent.

  At the moment when the giant hammer appeared, Pu Yun's hands, which were as tight as if they had fallen into an abyss, loosened in terror and stood still on the spot, his body trembling with fear as he stared at the descending giant hammer. In this moment, Pu Yun was desperate.

  As one of the six generations of Guzong's disciples, he was desperate.

  The ancient sect's disciple hierarchy is divided into eight generations, with the first generation being the highest and the eighth generation being the lowest. The corresponding ranks are: first-generation disciples as the main line, their seniority is intimidating; second-generation disciples as elders, followed by peak masters, executives, inner door, core, elite, and ordinary disciples! As a sixth-generation disciple, Pu Yun's reputation is extremely high! Although his actual strength is only at the seventh-grade Tempering Body peak, rumors have it that his strength is comparable to that of a first-grade Blood Image.

  Although Man Tian shone brightly in the competition for a spot, it was nothing in Pu Yun's eyes! He thought himself to be superior, and Man Tian's strength was just one of many in the ancient sect. However, Man Tian's killing of Chi Long made him somewhat dissatisfied with Man Tian. As someone who also possessed the Silver White Bloodline and wielded a spear as his weapon, he felt a sense of camaraderie with Chi Long, but didn't expect Chi Long to be killed by Man Tian.

  However, because of his consideration for Luo Lao, Pu Yun did not show any dissatisfaction towards Man Tian. However, this time, after learning that the sect had collapsed due to Man Tian, he could no longer suppress the anger in his heart and wanted to teach Man Tian a lesson.

  But he didn't expect that a few days without seeing Tianye would make him so terrified.

  However, he did not know that at this time, the Barbarian Heaven had sunk into the subtlety of "Zen", receiving the baptism of "Zen", and a large part of the aura he emitted was due to the power contained in the word "Zen" within the sect. At this time, it can be said that it is the Barbarian Heaven, but not entirely.

  At the time of Pu Yun's extreme fear, he suddenly heard a buzzing sound and felt a light screen enveloping his whole body. The dark giant hammer crashed on the light screen, creating ripples, and Pu Yun woke up with a start, retreating in terror.

  The barbarian king's eyes gleamed with endless magical intent as he gazed forward at an old man in a pale purple robe who had appeared, but instead of speaking, he continued to keep his eyes closed.

  "Master!" Pu Yun exclaimed, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.

  The old man glanced at Pu Yun, his gaze swept towards the collapsed sect, and then looked at the demonic energy-covered Man Tian. In his turbid eyes, a sharp light flashed, and there was also a hint of unusual color in his expression. Immediately after, he looked around at the disciples and said in a deep voice: "Everyone retreat!"

  The old man's light purple clothes revealed his identity, a symbol of the third generation disciple! The third generation disciples are the masters of one peak, and they are also ancient monsters who have lived for hundreds of years. Their strength is at least in the realm of awakening, so their words naturally carry a certain majesty, which makes many disciples dare not linger here, and they quickly retreat.

  Bai Xian'er and others hesitated for a moment, then followed the crowd to retreat. Finally, the old man glanced at Pu Yun and said in a deep voice: "You also retreat!"

  "Yes! Master!" Pu Yun suppressed the fear in his heart and said respectfully. Although he was surprised, he didn't dare to say more and quickly retreated.

  When the entire sect was empty except for Man Tian and this old man, dozens of figures suddenly appeared around Man Tian, surrounding him. Among them were middle-aged men, as well as elderly men and women.

  "What do you think?" Pu Yun's master, Pu Wan, looked at the old man who had just appeared and said in a deep voice.

  "Zen!! This child has received the legendary 'Zen' inheritance!"

  "Unexpectedly, a great opportunity in the sect! The word 'Chan' is actually within the sect."

  "This boy has a deep karma! But this 'Zen' character..."

  "I originally thought that 'Zen' had dissipated in the long river of history, but unexpectedly, the sect has created another 'Zen'!"

  "Whether it's the ancestor or the demon, they all depend on this child's thought in an instant! If his mind is not firm, this child may become the next Zen Demon! At that time, the ancient sect will become the target of the southern barbarians' arrows!"

  "But if this child were to succeed in becoming the 'Zen' ancestor, then our ancient sect would leap to become the strongest sect in Nanyue!"

  These ancient masters all expressed their own ideas and discussed them.

  "It's a big deal, we should ask the master of the family!" An old woman stared at Man Tian and said in a hoarse voice.

  The person in power of the ancient clan is the clan master. Unless it's a matter that determines the survival or extinction of the ancient clan, they will not go against the clan master. For major events within the clan, they are usually decided by the master of one of the four veins of the ancient clan! If it's other matters, they won't even think about asking the master of one vein to move.

  But this is Zen!

  A simple word, yet possessing unparalleled power in this world is "Zen".

  Since ancient times, countless strong men have been buried under this "Zen" character! For countless years, the notorious name of "Zen" has made people tremble with fear! That is the deterrent power formed by the accumulation of countless corpses and the brutal killings that shook the heavens!

  Similarly, a thought can be Zen, and a thought can be demonic! Zen has a demonic side, but also a good side!

  If it is for Zen, then bring blessings to the world. If it becomes a demon, it will return to the darkest and most chaotic era.

  "Since ancient times, the number of emperors who have achieved greatness can be counted on one's fingers, but the lineage of Chan has produced two emperors! Whether it was the Ancestor of Chan or the Demon of Chan, both were earth-shaking and awe-inspiring. If..."

  The old man's words were cut off by another old man: "Emperor? Don't tell me you think that in this era, another emperor can emerge? Since the fall of the Ancestor of Chan, the lineage of Chan has produced countless evil demons, each one stirring up bloody storms and carnage. If not for the fact that the Eastern Domain's Qingyun Emperor wiped out the lineage of Chan at the end of the ancient era, I fear this world would be a completely different place! The fallen Qingyun Emperor never thought that after many years, the lineage of Chan would once again ignite its spark. In my opinion, this child should be killed! Otherwise, our ancient sect will face disaster."

  The hunched old man growled in a low voice.

  The rest of the elderly remained silent, and this old man repeated their concerns!

  A single thought can be Zen, a single thought can be demonic! If it's for Zen, that's fine. But if it becomes demonic, they will be sinners!

  "Perhaps we are over-worrying! Up to now, 'Zen' is mysterious, but in this era of thin blood, it can't stir up any waves!" Another elderly man said.

  "No! This child must be strangled!" The hunchbacked old man emphasized again.

  "Gentlemen, you are overthinking!" Just as everyone was arguing, several figures reappeared. Among them were Old Luo, an old man with the surname Qin, and a Taoist elder. The speaker was the latter, who had a head full of white hair that reached his shoulders, a tall and large body, but his muscles were all shriveled up, giving off a sense of decline. However, what was astonishing was that this elder's back was high and humped, as if he were a hunchback.

  "Look, it's the elder!" The crowd saw this old man and was shocked in their hearts, hastily saying respectfully.

  Whether it's Zen ancestors or Zen demons, to excavate the true power of "Zen", a catalyst is needed. However, that catalyst has long been destroyed by Qingmu Emperor! Therefore, the prosperity of "Zen" has long since passed with the historical river! Today's "Zen" is no longer the true "Zen"!
