My understanding is against the heavens, I create a family of villains with longevity.

Chen Zhixing didn't have any feelings towards these new juniors, neither good nor bad.

There is no such thing as wanting to promote outstanding juniors, nor is there any idea of ​​wanting to suppress these juniors.

Even though he encountered the three Dian, one monk, seven young masters, twenty-eight cultivators, and the only monk among the ninety-six heroes the first time he returned to Tianxuan, Chen Zhixing just took a look at him and directly tore through the space and left.

This action made the monk from the Mojie Temple, who wanted to step forward and salute Chen Zhixing after seeing him, pause for a moment, and he subconsciously let go of his hands that had just been clasped together.

In front of the void rift.

"That was the Demon Lord just now, right? He actually returned to Tianxuan?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? That's Xing Zun. I advise you not to call him the wrong name!"

"Look, Monk Cihong has been humiliated. His Majesty Xingzun doesn't even bother to pay attention to him. He even boasted before that if he was born 20 years earlier, he would be able to compete with Xingzun. Now that he has seen the real person, Xingzun doesn't even bother to pay attention to him."

"Shh, stop talking. You are talking about Star Lord in the Southern Region. Do you want to die?"

"Well, I was just talking and mentioned Xing Zun's name. I didn't say anything else. Xing Zun shouldn't care about these things, right?

"I don't know, but I know you're going to be in trouble."

"Unlucky?"

The man was full of question marks on his face, and then he felt his body lighten. Before he could react, he fell into the river with a splash.

"Puff!" After the man finally floundered out of the river and climbed onto the shore, he couldn't help but yell at the crowd, "Who the hell attacked me? If you have the guts, stand up and let's have a real fight. What's the point of secretly hurting someone!!!"

Upon hearing this, the monks who were queuing in front of the void rift retreated far away, leaving only a young monk with red lips and white teeth standing there motionless, clasping his hands together.

"Amitabha, I see that you are surrounded by evil spirits. When you wake up in the middle of the night, your enemies will come to you in your dreams to seek revenge. You are having such a hard time in this world. Why not let Cihong help you to be free?"

As soon as he finished speaking, before the man could open his mouth to refuse, Cihong, whose whole body was glowing with golden light, stretched out a hand to him, and then slapped him down repeatedly with her palms.

next second.

All that remained was a piece of flesh remaining in a ten-meter-wide palm print, with traces of the man's presence.

However, Cihong, who had just killed someone, was now sitting cross-legged next to the palm print, reciting the Pure Land Sutra.

In the Tianxuan Realm, monks are not so easy to mess with.

Of course, the ones who are not easy to mess with are only the monks who go out alone. Because most of these people are selected by the major temples to walk on the earth, and they are the best among the thousands of people in the entire temple in terms of both martial arts and character.

Well, in the Tianxuan Realm, there is no saying that monks are not allowed to kill. If there is such a saying, then these monks will not be able to survive in Tianxuan.

Not only do they kill people, but they are also very murderous.

However, compared to ordinary monks from sects, these monks from large temples will give warnings before killing, and after killing, they will use the Sutra of Rebirth in Paradise to save the people they killed. According to legend, if a dying person is lucky enough to ask a great Buddhist to recite the Sutra of Rebirth for him, he can ignore the nature of his cultivation and directly fall into the spirit world after death to enjoy a great pleasure.

Not many cultivators believe this, but most wealthy people among the mortal world are willing to believe it.

Perhaps this is a kind of psychological comfort?

Who knows.

In fact, Monk Cihong himself did not believe that the people he had saved were qualified to enter the spirit world, because he was a martial monk of the Mojie Temple, and their Mojie Temple had a complete inheritance of the realm of longevity. The inheritance clearly recorded many things related to the spirit world. It was known that only when mortals cultivated to the realm of true self could they have a possibility of entering the spirit world after death with their true spirits immortal.

It's just a possibility, not a certainty.

In other words, except for the great monks in the realm of immortality, no one can guarantee that they will be able to enter the spiritual world as a true spirit after death.

However, there is one thing that Cihong knew, and that is that their Buddhist Pure Land Sutra can really help people increase the possibility of entering the spiritual world. Although this effect is not as exaggerated as most monks say, it still has some effect to some extent.

This is mainly because the Buddha of their Buddhist sect is a real Buddha of the fifteenth sequence in the spiritual world, and the authority he controls includes some laws regarding reincarnation and rebirth.

After Ci Hong finished mourning for the monk who had just died tragically at his hands, he stood up and bowed to the dead. Then he no longer thought about stepping into the void crack to reach the universe, but walked towards the completely opposite direction step by step.

He did say that he wished he had been born twenty years earlier so that he could fight against the Demon Lord.

It’s just that most ordinary people take the quote out of context and have never heard the whole article.

"I have been doing nothing all my life. I started to learn at the age of three, practiced Qi at the age of five, entered the state of spiritual travel at the age of fifteen, and entered the state of Zhenwu at the age of nineteen. Now I am twenty-seven years old, and I have achieved Nirvana. I have no rivals among my peers in the temple. I have gradually walked out of the temple to meet the heroes of the world. I walked to Dongxuan Yuhua and learned that there is an immortal in the world who has been in the world for two thousand years. I yearn for his majesty. I passed by Jiangzhou and learned that there was a demon named Chen, called Demon Lord, who had created Buddhist karma. I was terrified for a while, and I only regretted that I had not been born twenty years earlier, so that I could compete with Dongxuan before the Demon Lord rose to power and prevent him from creating endless karma. If I could do so, his merits might allow me to complete my practice in this life and be reborn in the highest heaven!"

From the beginning to the end, what Monk Cihong wanted to express was that he only hoped to make friends with the Demon Lord through martial arts before he rose to power, and after becoming friends, stop him from committing evil deeds against the Central Region, and then use this merit to achieve immortality in this life. This was not as rumored by outsiders that the monk wanted to fight with Chen Zhixing and suppress the Demon Lord.

Becoming friends and then stopping it is very different from simply stopping it with force.

The former has a clear idea in mind.

The latter is wishful thinking.

Anyone who has understood the rise of the Demon Lord would not have such thoughts, because they know that even when the Demon Lord was the weakest, behind him stood Chen Tianyuan, a top-level figure who was basically invincible in the realm of immortality, which made it impossible for him to be strangled.

The prerequisite for eliminating a genius is that this genius has no guardian, or you are stronger than his guardian. If you cannot do these two things, the so-called elimination is nothing more than giving experience to the genius.

Monk Cihong had no grudge against Chen Zhixing. The reason why he said that before was because he really felt sorry for seeing a great merit slip away right before his eyes.

Now, what he needs most is merit to help him take a further step on the great path, to help him complete the nirvana of the Arhat golden body, and to advance one step further to the pinnacle.

Before, when he was looking for Wu Men in Tian Xuan Realm, Ci Hong was thinking about whether he could go to Huan Yu to educate the creatures from other worlds and gain some merits for education. However, now that this Demon Lord has returned from the outside world, Ci Hong has no plans to go to Huan Yu anymore.

Ci Hong felt that since the Demon Lord had returned, there would definitely be another bloody storm in the Dongxuan Continent in the near future. If Ci Hong could do something during this period, then neither the merits required for the Nirvana Golden Body nor the merits required for the breakthrough would be a problem.

The monks in the Tianxuan Realm need merits to practice. The merits of the monks are called Taoism in the words of ordinary practitioners.

It is just that because the monks have a unified system, and they all have the same Buddha above them, and the Buddha's realm is high enough, and he created an independent promotion system for them. The monks' practice has become a popular name in Buddhism, "merit".

It is basically the same as the merits in the mortal world. Maintaining order will bring merit, and preventing disasters will bring merit.

Well, the merits of the monks are calculated by the Buddha. If they do things that are consistent with maintaining the system created by the Buddha, merits will be bestowed upon them, helping the monks to improve their cultivation.

Of course, monks can also practice on their own.

But this is very difficult, because the Buddhist path is summarized by the Buddha under his own system. If monks do not follow the path of merit within this system and want to advance through ordinary practice methods, it will be more difficult than ordinary practitioners.

Cixi Middle School is an example.

With his talent, if he had been born as an ordinary cultivator and had practiced hard all the way until he was thirty years old, he would have been qualified to reach the pinnacle. However, because of the path he took, after reaching the Nirvana realm, he was stuck in the Nirvana realm of condensing the golden body of Arhat. Without the help of merit, it would be difficult for him to make further progress.

This is not to say that the Buddhist path is difficult to walk. In fact, for ordinary people, the Buddhist path is faster than normal practice, and the requirements for talent are also lower. As long as you are a great monk, no matter what your level of practice is, you can reach the pinnacle.

In other words, even ordinary people with mediocre qualifications can reach the pinnacle of Buddhism as long as they are willing to practice virtue.

But this takes a very long time and requires a great deal of energy to cultivate merit.

The Buddha opened a great door for spiritual practice.

But for some people with outstanding talents, this way of practicing through merit is not so friendly.

There are many monks who could have achieved the speed of breaking the mirror with great speed, but because they did not cultivate good causes and reap good results, they did not have any merits and did not make any progress in their cultivation for dozens or even hundreds of years. This leads to the fact that the more talented people are, the less willing they are to enter Buddhism.

However, these do not seem to be important to Buddhism.

For the same practice of cultivators, a genius can reach the pinnacle at the age of thirty, while ordinary people can barely reach the pinnacle at the age of three hundred, and then live a mediocre life until they are a thousand years old. The genius cultivator is at the ninth level of the pinnacle, while the ordinary cultivator is also at the ninth level of the pinnacle. At the end, there is basically no difference between the two.

Because the path of cultivating merit is really feasible for ordinary people, and because the requirements for talent are not high, the older the Buddhist monks are, the more powerful people they accumulate, and most of them are people who do good deeds and accumulate virtue. In terms of reputation, they are much better than ordinary cultivators.

Geniuses are always rare, while ordinary people always make up the majority.

Well, that's only in comparison.

Because the merits that the Buddhas cultivate also need to be accumulated and encountered by chance, and where in the world are there so many merits for you to pick up?

The competition is also fierce.

Many monks even lost their lives while trying to gain merit.

The merits of the entire Tianxuan Realm can barely support one Buddhist sect.

It is precisely because of this that Buddhism has always been a minority in the Tianxuan Realm, and no one is willing to challenge them on this path.

On the one hand, it is impossible to snatch it, and on the other hand, there is no need.

of course.

In the eyes of many monks, if there were more people like Chen Zhixing in the world, then there would be hope for the prosperity of their Buddhism.

However, this kind of thinking was criticized by many great monks.

After all, merits and virtues are the result of good deeds. We cannot allow more evil to grow just because we want to do good. Otherwise, what is the difference between Buddhism and the devil?

But few monks are willing to listen to the words of these great masters.

After all, without merit, the monks' cultivation cannot be improved. The more they cannot improve their cultivation, the more they look forward to a chaotic world where demons breed.

This is a reality that cannot be avoided or changed.

It is also one of the most troublesome causes and effects in Buddhism.

Chen Zhixing naturally didn't know that his return had been regarded by Cihong as a great merit sent from heaven.

If he knew, he would probably just laugh it off.

Why?

Because he is a Taoist master in the Tianxuan Realm, and a Taoist master living in the world, the kind that can distribute merits!

Of course he knew about the Buddhist system of merit.

But if there really is a monk who is confused and wants to gain merits from him, then Chen Zhixing doesn't mind letting them know what administrator privileges are and disrupting the merit system created by the Buddha, and then stripping away many times the merits that this monk has gained in this world!

And this may be another drawback of Buddhism.

Buddhist practitioners should not provoke the current Taoist masters, because the Taoist masters who also master the same law have the ability to influence the merit system of the Buddha in a short period of time. Although due to the relationship between their cultivation, the time of influence is very short and the scope is relatively small, it is definitely enough to target a single individual.

The reason why several current Taoist masters in this world do not do this is really because the monks who can catch their eyes are all good people. So good that these Taoist masters cannot bear to bully them!

Chen Zhixing is naturally no exception.

Well, who doesn’t want the world to become a better place and have more good people in the world?

Not to mention bullying these good guys, even if they occasionally see someone bullying these good guys, the Taoist masters are even willing to take the initiative to help and protect the lives of these monks, let alone hurting these guys who have been doing good deeds all their lives.

Well, Cihong is an exception.

To be precise, when Chen Zhixing met Cihong, he simply regarded him as an ordinary cultivator from the Tianxuan Realm, and did not regard him as a monk who practiced the merit system at all.

Uh, no way.

There is too much bloody and evil aura on Ci Hong's body, and in the Tianxuan Realm, it is not only monks who shave their heads.

There is no merit in him, but a bloody and evil aura.

Such a monk is not a monk!
