Xiao Bing has been to Shaolin Temple once.

I remember the last time I happened to have a major event in Shaolin Temple. At that time, Xiao Bing was still surprised that there were many masters in the Shaolin Sect. However, now Xiao Bing felt that that time was probably the surface of Shaolin Temple. The real foundation of Shaolin was definitely not just that simple.

You know, Shaolin has been a sect as famous as Kunlun since ancient times. This is still the case when Shaolin Temple does not care about the world. According to such a super sect, how could the masters in their sect not be as good as sects like the Iron Fist Sect and Baijian Sect?

The only thing Xiao Bing felt that he could not see through was Shaolin's Abbot Zhiming. At that time, Xiao Bing's strength had already broken through to the early stage of the Heavenly Lord, but he had no power to resist when facing Abbot Zhiming.

In Xiao Bing's view, Abbot Zhiming's strength would otherwise be the peak of the Heavenly Lord, and might even reach the limit that humans have the chance to reach, the saint realm!

Xiao Bing asked Li Chaoyang and others to go back to Kyoto City first, and then came to Shaolin alone. When Xiao Bing came here, it was too late and all the tourists had already left. Xiao Bing stood at the gate of Shaolin Temple and said respectfully: "Xiao Bing from Jiangcheng came to visit Mr. Abbot!"

This voice alarmed the entire Shaolin Temple, and many people inside shouted: "Xiao Bing!"

"It's the one I came here last time!"

"He's here again."

"I don't know what's going on this time."

"This person is very strong."

"It seems that the abbot attaches great importance to him."

At this moment, the abbot's voice suddenly came from inside: "Master Xiao, please come in!"

Xiao Bing said thank you, then walked in. There were many people in the yard, some of whom were young disciples, and some were slightly older. They all looked at Xiao Bing with curiosity, but everyone heard the abbot's words just now, so no one came to stop Xiao Bing.

Xiao Bing had already been to the abbot's room once before, and this time he went straight to the abbot's residence.

When he came to the door of the abbot's room, Xiao Bing said respectfully: "Xiao Bing asks for a meeting."

"Sir Xiao Bing Duke, please come in."

Xiao Bing walked over, pushed the door open, and walked in. The old monk wearing a cassock sat on the wooden bed, pointed to the wooden chair next to him with his hand, and said, "Please sit by Mr. Xiao."

At this moment, Xiao Bing looked at the old monk Baimei, and it was still an unfathomable feeling. He gave Xiao Bing a vicissitudes of life and age, and it also brought a background that was difficult to see clearly.

Xiao Bing sighed: "All martial arts practitioners are fighting and killing each other, pursuing the highest level of martial arts, but the one who has truly reached the highest level of martial arts is a master who is invincible with the world. The master's realm is admirable."

"The highest level? What is the highest level?" Abbot Zhiming smiled and said, "The donor is actually a little persistent. If the world does not fight, how can martial arts be distinguished? If the world fights, there will still be a pile of bones and ashes in a hundred years. What have we really won? Even if we look at the mythological era, the heroes and gods and demons in that era of heroes emerged one by one. Today, the people who live in this world are still the most common people. What is the point of fighting for it?"

Xiao Bing said: "Actually, I came here this time to learn about Kunlun Sect with you."

"Kunlun?" A shocking light suddenly appeared in Abbot Zhiming's calm eyes. Xiao Bing immediately realized how different the Kunlun Sect was. It is estimated that Kunlun could really make Abbot Zhiming show strangeness in the world.

Abbot Zhiming asked, “What do you want to know about them?”

Xiao Bing said the current situation and finally said: "These ancient martial arts sects are different from those of you Shaolin. They hold strong self-restraints. Ordinary people are like ants to them. How can a person be concerned about the life and death of ants? So for them, no matter whether it is a life or something, there is no concern at all. In their eyes, the people themselves are ants."

Abbot Zhiming sighed and said, "So I said that martial arts can easily make people become demons. Even if it is a decent martial art, it does not mean that they will not become demons. Becoming a demon refers to the human nature. The minds of these people have become demons. In their minds, martial arts represents the determination of life and death."

Xiao Bing said: "What Abbot Zhiming said is really right. Their hearts and natures are demonic. Although they claim to be famous and upright sects, they are just because of their inheritance. However, with the few people in ancient martial arts in the world, their status in martial arts has become higher and higher. This high status has already inspired their ambitions and has long made them proud. This pride has made the people of the world become ants in their eyes."

Abbot Zhiming said: "Do you want to attack Kunlun?"

"It's time for a while." Xiao Bing said, "If they didn't do anything wrong, of course I wouldn't attack them, but I'm afraid that the Kunlun Sect's ambitions are too great. The people have been living and working in peace for so many years, and they can't suffer anymore, and they can't die anymore!"

Abbot Zhiming looked at Xiao Bing and said, "I have long seen that Xiao Bing Donor is a pure-hearted person. Since you have the heart to save the world, I naturally know everything."

Xiao Bing smiled and said, "If the master is willing to tell everyone the truth, it would be great. I am afraid that if the Kunlun School is involved, the master will have some concerns."

Abbot Zhiming smiled and shook his head, saying, "Life is death, death is life. I have always maintained my life, just to do something that is beneficial to the world? If I don't even dare to do things that are truly beneficial to this world, then what's the point of living in this world?"

"What's more, I may not be afraid of Kunlun." Abbot Zhiming said with a smile.

Xiao Bing said: "I really haven't seen the full background of the temple yet."

Abbot Zhiming said: "I will see it one day sooner or later. I'd better talk to you about this Kunlun Sect. I suggest you don't act rashly or break up with the Kunlun Sect, but I think that according to the Kunlun Sect's style of conduct, they may have great ambitions and plans."

Xiao Bing asked, "Why do you think so?"

Abbot Zhiming said: "The Kunlun Sect was established in the Ming Dynasty. After its establishment, martial arts geniuses emerged in endlessly, and its strength gradually became a giant sect in the martial arts world. At the beginning, the Kunlun Sect did not have much ambitions, but when the late Ming Dynasty, the strength of the Ming Dynasty began to become weak, the Kunlun Sect began to show its ambitions. They wanted the court to sign them as the national religion. After being rejected, they began to secretly corrupt officials, win over major sects, and settle the position of leader of the martial arts world, and want to replace the court."

Xiao Bing smiled bitterly and said, "Is that a dream?"

"That's really not easy. There are many masters in the court, and there are hundreds of thousands of troops in the court. How could a martial arts sect be subverted? Later, they changed their strategies and attracted and corrupt officials. In addition, they controlled the entire martial arts world, and there were endless masters in the sects. Therefore, although the Ming Dynasty still did not enthrone them as the national religion, they also let them do whatever they wanted."

"Later, in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, the Kunlun faction actively resisted the Qing Dynasty in the early days because they did not want to lose their current dominance. Once the Ming Dynasty fell, with the strength of the Qing Dynasty, their status would probably be no longer guaranteed. It was not until later that they realized that the strength of the Qing Dynasty was far beyond their control, so they began to shrink to protect themselves. At that time, the most famous person who truly resisted the Qing Dynasty was the famous old man in Tianshan."

Xiao Bing sighed: "So future generations respect the elderly in Tianshan."

"That's right, when it was the Qing Dynasty, the Kunlun Sect also started to act everywhere, wanting to make the Qing Dynasty appoint them as the state religion because they enjoyed the feeling of being superior. However, they knew clearly that they were not the material for governing the world. The most important thing was that they could not control the army and did not have any resources. Therefore, their policies have always been to win over the forces in the court, or to try to support their forces within the court. Unfortunately, whether it was the Ming Dynasty or the Qing Dynasty, they were very cautious about them and never succeeded. Their idea of ​​becoming a state religion was never realized."

"Later in the late Qing Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty began to be seriously corrupt and its national strength was weak. They began to take the opportunity to unify the martial arts forces with the intention of controlling the court. During the Cixi period, they finally supported a person they wanted to support in the court, Prince Gong!"

Xiao Bing said in surprise: "Did Prince Gong support them?"

Abbot Zhiming sighed and said, "Yes, the Kunlun Sect originally planned to support Prince Gong ascend to heaven in one step. Unfortunately, a person with more skill and status than Prince Gong came out of the palace, and was even a woman. This woman was Empress Dowager Cixi. Cixi was a very political means and had ambitions, so she was not satisfied with the rule behind the curtain, so she colluded with Prince Gong and Kunlun Sect, and Cixi also made more use of the Kunlun Sect. After Emperor Xianfeng died, she secretly supported the Kunlun Sect. Cixi launched a Xinyou coup. Prince Gong, Cixi, Kunlun Sect, and the three parties worked together to kill the eight auxiliary ministers including Zaiyuan, Duanhua, and Sushun. From then on, Empress Dowager Cixi began to monopolize the power!"

"After that, Prince Gong was in power, and although the Kunlun Sect did not get what they wanted, Prince Gong was not willing to listen to their throne, their status also increased. At that time, the Kunlun Sect was also straitorous in the entire China."

"It's a pity that unless you really take the position of the throne, you will be in power no matter how powerful the people are. The person sitting on it will sooner or later deprive you of all your glory. Prince Gong began to fall during the Boxer Rebellion period, and the Kunlun Sect was forced to keep a low profile."

"But later, the Kunlun School's actions never stopped from beginning to end. They tried to control the court, but unfortunately they could not do it. Otherwise, if you think the new China was established later, why would they force the mountain to be closed?"

Xiao Bing sighed: "I really didn't expect that these things have happened in history, and they have not been recorded in history books."

"You don't know, but the reason why Kunlun was forced to close the mountains back then was that we were unable to do without our Shaolin Temple. Our Shaolin never cared about the secular world, but at that time, he was invited by the first leader of New China and worked with the country to force their major sects to close the mountains!"
