The abbot's mission to obtain Fa Hai's Golden Body, though not a grand secret, is only known to a few high-ups within Lingyin Temple.

Now, with Bai Suzhen revealing it in one breath, Dust Spirit furrowed his brows, feeling immensely puzzled and skeptical inside.

"How you know is of no concern to you. You only need to know that you can take a step further." Bai Suzhen said, a slight smile appearing on her lips.

"A step further?"

Dust Spirit frowned, looking confused, "What do you mean?"

Bai Suzhen laughed, "Still don't understand? Once our Observatory Master helps you get rid of Dust Concealment, who else in Lingyin Temple could take the position of abbot but you?"

"Dust Spirit, we've helped you so much, it's not too much to ask for the Leifeng Pagoda in return today, is it?"

Upon hearing this, Dust Spirit's expression changed dramatically.

The monks in the temple also had solemn expressions.

"You intend to ambush the Abbot Brother?" Dust Spirit spoke, with anger and skepticism in his voice.

The Eighteen Copper Arhats wore cold expressions, saying nothing, but staring intently at Bai Suzhen.

Bai Suzhen smiled faintly, "You should feel joy about this, shouldn't you?"

Dust Spirit's face turned grim, "Stop your nonsense!"

Then he said in a deep voice, "Stop bluffing, even if you have the Immortal Sword in your hand, that Observatory Master himself is only of the Grandmaster Realm, how could he ambush our temple's abbot?"

Quick-witted, he naturally wouldn't easily believe Bai Suzhen's words.

However, Bai Suzhen didn't mind; she only said these things to shake their confidence.

"You seem to forget, my master also has an Immortal Furnace in hand!"

"If Dust Concealment is caught off guard, do you think he could return alive?"

Saying this, Bai Suzhen paused, shaking her head with a self-deprecating smile, "Sorry, eight hundred years in the Leifeng Pagoda made life so dull, I seem to have talked too much now, just take it as me rambling nonsense."

"Anyway, I'm here today just to retrieve the Leifeng Pagoda!"

With those words, Bai Suzhen's aura surged, the pressure of a Peak of Great Power enveloped the entire Lingyin Temple like a dark cloud.

Dust Spirit, already disturbed by her words, felt this terrifying aura now and panicked slightly, quickly shouting in a loud voice:

"All temple monks, quickly form the Great Brightness Buddha Lotus Array!"

"At your command!"

The monks, with profound cultivation, responded one after another, disregarding the flood within the temple, shooting up into the sky, linking together below Dust Spirit in layers, forming a Lotus Platform.

Dust Spirit and the Eighteen Copper Arhats stood upon it.

The next moment, a profound and obscure chanting of scriptures emanated from the thousands of monks within the Lotus Platform.

They made intricate hand seals, chanting profound Buddhist Dharma, causing the entire Lotus Platform to burst with supreme holy light.

Enveloped in the light, Dust Spirit and the Eighteen Copper Arhats had their auras rapidly rising, presenting an aura distinctly matched against that of Bai Suzhen, a Peak of Great Power!

From the shadows, Lin Heng witnessed this and spoke with a grave tone, "The means of the Buddhist Saint Sect are truly endless..."

"Indeed, otherwise, Buddhism wouldn't have flourished to such an extent."

Black Bear Spirit nodded, then sighed.

"In truth, if not for the many casualties among Daoism's elites, the tactics during Daoism's prime, would certainly not be inferior."

Rumble!!

By this time, a real battle had erupted on Bai Suzhen's side.

The Immortal Sword and Leifeng Pagoda were displaying their divine might.

Dust Spirit, alongside the Eighteen Copper Arhats, under the boost of the Great Brightness Buddha Lotus Array, clashed fiercely with Bai Suzhen.

"Now!"

Without hesitation, Lin Heng and Black Bear Spirit turned into streams of light, silently rushing into Lingyin Temple's territory.

By then, the flood had yet to recede, and some low-lying pavilions and halls were submerged.

However, at Lin Heng and Black Bear Spirit's level, even a sea of flames wouldn't hinder them, allowing for easy entry and exit without a scratch.

Yet, as they navigated beneath the water, encountering many similarly shaped halls,

A new issue arose.

"Which halls are used by Lingyin Temple as treasure storage?"

"Uh... I really don't know..."

Black Bear Spirit felt a bit embarrassed.

He was familiar with Jinshan Temple because he had visited multiple times and thoroughly explored it.

But truly, Lingyin Temple was uncharted territory for him...

"Never mind, treasure or not, we'll head in one direction, leaving no stone unturned, not a single brick or tile left for them!"

Lin Heng declared, since his system space was vast, it didn't matter what he stored?

With that said, he hesitated no longer, bringing two fingers together, severing a pavilion in the flood at the roots, then with a wave, summoned it to himself with a terrifying suction force, transferring it into his system space in the blink of an eye.

The seamless operation left Black Bear Spirit slightly stunned.

After a prolonged silence, he genuinely gave a thumbs-up.

"Boss, you really are ruthless!"

After speaking, an immensely excited smile appeared on his face.

In its lifetime, it had stolen countless Buddhist treasures.

But this was the first time it had witnessed an entire temple being relocated!

The feeling was summarized in two words, truly exhilarating!

Soon, Black Bear Spirit joined the 'relocation' efforts too.

Seven days prior, informed of the raid on Lingyin Temple, instead of only cultivating, he had organized six of his spatial magical artifacts in preparation!

In the current gathering, it was akin to a whale swallowing massive quantities.

As for Lin Heng, needless to say, beneath the flood, he moved as if unchallenged, continuously striking, severing the structures ahead one by one.

As pavilion after hall vanished, some lesser-cultivated monks who had fled to higher ground gradually noticed the water level receding.

This revealed expressions of joy on their faces.

Evidently, it was due to the entanglement of the superiors that the White Snake had no time to control the water.

Immediately, many disciples shouted, "The water level is dropping, hurry to the rooms and find the magical artifacts, the reward I got last month mustn't be washed away by the flood!"

"Me too, the Fourth Grade Kasaya rewarded by the master, I haven't dared to wear it yet, I wonder if this flood affects Fourth Grade Magical Artifacts!"

"This poor monk is more worried about the manual I borrowed from the Spirit Scripture Pavilion, I wonder if it'll be soaked beyond repair..."

Though Lingyin Temple is a Buddhist Saint Sect, with tens of thousands of disciples, not all are masters, many are merely fledgling monks with potential but lacking cultivation.

Earlier in the flood, they couldn't even safeguard their valuables.

Now, with the water level dropping, they hastened to their rooms to check their belongings.

However, upon wading down, they found themselves lost, unable to find their quarters no matter what.
