Just when Pei Wende was in real crisis, the battle between Yuande and Huiji in the Main Hall of Mulian Temple was coming to an end.
"Amitabha!"
With Huiji's Buddha's name, the light of Bodhi Buddha behind him naturally faded away, and the entire hall regained its previous calm and tranquility.
Only Yuande lying on the ground could prove that a battle had just occurred here.
Compared with Huiji, who has an indifferent temperament and is unscathed, Yuande's current situation is much worse.
His body was covered with broken bones and bruises from being beaten. The socket of his left eye was also red and swollen, blocking his vision. Even the monk's iconic bald head had big bumps.
From an image perspective alone, Yuan De's current injuries are more insulting than fatal.
"Why don't you kill me?"
He turned his head with difficulty and looked at Yuande beside him. No one knew the difficulty of this battle better than him.
Ever since Huiji no longer concealed her identity and appeared in front of her with a cultivation level that was close to that of a land god, the outcome of this battle had been determined.
The only thing that is strange to Yuande now is that Hui Ji, who was obviously acting so aggressively, acted very "cowardly" when he really needed to kill him.
"My Buddha is compassionate, and monks must be compassionate."
With a slight smile on her lips, Hui Ji murmured in a tone that she didn't know whether to be teasing or serious.
"Xiao Monk, I am a real monk, how can I violate discipline and kill people?"
Without hiding his sarcasm, Yuan De just stared at Hui Ji's face, not believing what the other party was saying now.
After all, the anger and irritability he had shown when he entered the Mahavira Palace did not look like a compassionate monk. He was said to be Yuan Deduxin, a habitual criminal who had killed countless people.
"A guy who almost achieved the status of 'Arahant' and lost all his cultivation due to breaking the precepts, is he still afraid of breaking the precepts?"
Achieving "Arahant" is the highest honor for ordinary Buddhist practitioners, which is almost equivalent to the Taoist Yang Shen realm.
Hui Jing, who almost achieved the status of "Arahant", is like stepping half-foot into the other shore and walking in the human world as the incarnation of the true Buddha. He can be called a "living Buddha" anywhere.
From this point of view, Huiji, who once almost stepped into the other side and finally became a mortal, could not be the kind of ordinary monk who followed the rules.
And this is indeed the case. It is impossible for ordinary monks to explore the other side, let alone break the precepts at the last moment of entering the other side.
“The precepts of the mouth are easy to break, but the precepts of the heart are hard to break.”
"What's more, the way of predecessors is not my way..."
"If you don't understand this, reaching the other shore is just stepping into another sea of suffering."
Without dwelling on this issue, Huiji turned her head and looked at the Sakyamuni Buddha in the center of the Main Hall.
"It's a pity that you, with your pure heart, became an accomplice of the monster and went astray from then on."
As if in response to Huiji's words, the originally calm Sakyamuni Buddha suddenly shook abnormally.
Boom!
In an instant, Sakyamuni Buddha's body suddenly burst apart, and countless blue rays of light rose from the base of the Buddha's body, illuminating the entire hall.
"Oops!"
Hui Ji, who was still confident at first, suddenly changed her face after seeing this scene. She quickly threw out her prayer beads to suppress the green light, but it was already too late.
tumultuous!
When Sakyamuni Buddha's body completely collapsed, a huge green snake emerged from the Buddha's body, directly smashed through the dome and jumped into the sky.
"Master, I still failed to complete the task you assigned me."
Staring blankly at the soaring figure of the green snake, Yuan De murmured something like an explanation and a mocking tone.
"Silly monk, there have never been any spiritual treasures conceived in Mulian Temple. What is here is just a suppressed century-old snake demon..."
As soon as these words came out, it was Huiji's turn to be confused.
"There are no spiritual treasures here? There is only a suppressed snake demon?"
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is indeed the case. The trend of the mountains that gather together in a radius of more than ten miles to form a "treasure gathering" is indeed the basic condition for the cultivation of treasures.
But no one has ever stipulated that such conditions can only be used to breed spiritual treasures.
On the contrary, if someone is willing to give up such favorable conditions, there will be eminent monks protecting the law to resist the gathering of evil monsters.
Using such terrain conditions to suppress the big demon is simply the best natural choice.
"Did I mess up something again, little monk?"

At the same time, in the remote east wing courtyard.
"what is that?"
Pei Wende, who was surrounded by ghosts, naturally would not ignore the green light that appeared above the Main Hall.
However, due to the color of the sky and the angle, Pei Wende did not see the true appearance of the green light clearly. He did not even notice that the green light came out of the Main Hall.
"It's out of trouble!"
On the other hand, the ghosts transformed by different creatures all showed expressions of surprise after seeing the green light.
It was as if a big event that had been planned for a long time had finally succeeded. The ecstasy after the plan was successful could be seen without any cover-up.
What makes Pei Wende feel a little inconsistent is that not all ghosts are happy with the appearance of green light.
Or to put it another way, even the most ecstatic existence among these ghosts and monsters can't conceal their inner fear and trembling towards Qingguang.
[Killing with a borrowed knife? To drive away wolves and devour tigers? 】
Thinking of the hatred of these ghosts for the eye-catching white-fronted giant tiger, Pei Wende felt that he would not be surprised at all if they released some more terrifying monsters.
"Twenty years ago, it hit the tiger hard, and that gave us the short-term freedom we had in the past twenty years."
Like Pei Wende's explanation, it seems that he is simply venting his inner ecstasy...
The maid in green clothes spoke again at the right time, and she made no secret of her certainty of victory.
"In the past twenty years, we have been worried about the comeback of the 'Tiger'..."
"We've been divided internally over this."
"Some cowardly guys choose to become evil ghosts under the 'Tiger' as they did before, and continue to deceive and hunt 'Blood Food' in order to please it."
"And some guys choose to be the outsiders, thinking that as long as they obey the 'tiger' honestly, the 'tiger' won't care about the betrayal over the past twenty years."
"But we are different. We hate the tiger, the tiger monster who turned us into this ghost!"
"So we chose a completely different path, that is to kill the Tiger completely and kill everyone related to the Tiger!"
