How come you have such strong superpowers?

"A virtuous person is pure, his body and mind are pure, his heart is firm and honest, and he is a true venerable..."

What Master Huizhao said.

Everyone heard it.

Those Zen masters suddenly widened their eyes and looked at Master Huizhao in astonishment.

As complete outsiders, Si Yujie and others had never heard of this and did not understand the meaning of this sentence.

However, this did not prevent them from understanding this sentence in an instant.

Because those mists that made the monks turn around and run away without caring about their faces, and made Si Yujie feel that she was dead just by sensing that they were coming straight at her, made the entire Jiming Temple become like a ghost cave. The gray mist, which had not yet approached Chen Lusi's body, was like encountering a natural enemy, and it sizzled and dissipated, and evaporated directly.

This scene, in the Jiming Temple that was like a ghost cave at this moment, can indeed be called... a miracle.

Especially for those Zen masters who knew the inside story.

In addition.

The Zen masters slowly lowered their heads and looked at the heavy book in Chen Lusi's right hand, their pupils trembling slightly.

I don't know why.

When their eyes focused on the book.

Everything around them seemed to have lost its color and attraction, even the Huaiyuan and the Dharma image behind him, who had just frightened them to the point of turning around and running away, seemed to have lost their deterrent power in an instant.

The whole world was left with only the slightly yellowed thick book with no symbols on the cover.

Only the person holding the book was left.

Da Da -

Until the next moment.

The sound of Chen Lusi's footsteps continued to move forward, and everyone suddenly came back to their senses.

And the moment many people came back, their eyes refocused on Chen Lusi, and in an instant, they all thought of a possibility.

But this possibility... was too shocking.

No one dared to believe it, or was unwilling to believe it.

And on the other side.

On the ground.

Huaiyuan, or the person who possessed Huaiyuan's body, kept raising his hand toward Chen Lusi. At the moment when the mist that rushed toward Chen Lusi evaporated before it touched him, his body shook violently.

The ferocious-looking Dharma image behind him also shook violently.

He widened his empty eyes, and his arms trembled slightly as blood and tears continued to flow.

And as Chen Lusi moved forward... the amplitude became larger and larger.

And Chen Lusi continued to walk towards him.

The steps were still not fast, but not slow either.

Click——

Chen Lusi took another step.

"..."

Huaiyuan, who was sitting on the ground, trembled a little.

He suddenly opened his hands towards Chen Lusi.

At the same time.

The Dharma image behind him put his hands together, and his eyes that kept shedding blood and tears suddenly closed.

"When Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva practiced deep Prajna Paramita..."

Then.

The faint sound of chanting began to come from all directions.

However, the chanting sound was not solemn at all, nor was it melodious and Zen-like. Instead, it seemed to carry a deep hatred and distortion.

It was creepy.

At the same time.

Boom——

The sound of the Buddha statues breaking and collapsing came from all directions, accompanied by the sound of wailing, and the gray mist around them suddenly stagnated.

The breathing of those Zen masters suddenly stagnated, and many people began to step back.

Chen Lusi paused, then looked around.

... With Huaiyuan's position as the center, everything around Jiming Temple began to collapse.

It was like a dream.

Those magnificent halls began to collapse and turned into ruins.

And every time a hall collapsed, there would be an additional statue of a Dharma statue without a hideous face around it.

Soon.

In the few seconds when Chen Lusi stopped for a short time.

All the grand halls within sight had collapsed, leaving only debris and Buddhist statues with hideous faces and tears of blood.

They stared at Chen Lusi who was walking towards Huaiyuan step by step. The chanting sound, which seemed to carry deep hatred and distortion, became louder and louder!

Finally.

It was like a roar... roaring at Chen Lusi.

"Ah!!!!"

Suddenly.

A scream was heard!

A Zen master suddenly knelt on the ground, his scream pierced his eardrums, and he raised his head again, his eyes also shed tears of blood.

Then, screams came one after another.

The distorted chanting sound, the painful screams, the sharp whistling sound of the wind... All the sounds mixed together, and at this moment, it kept echoing in the Buddhist holy land that was like a ghost den.

Tang Yu felt the fear that penetrated deep into her bones. Her delicate body trembled. She leaned towards Si Yujie, grabbed her clothes tightly, and then looked at Chen Lusi's back in front of her, and said in a trembling voice: "What on earth is this..."

"I don't know."

Si Yujie's delicate body was stiff, and she was not much better. She looked at Xia Panqiu who was hugging her daughter, and then looked at Chen Lusi in front of her: "But we have to help Chen Lusi..."

"Help..."

Tang Yu was so scared that she was about to cry... Her delicate body kept shaking, but she still forced herself to look at the back in front of her again, and asked in a trembling voice: "...How to help?"

Si Yujie was about to speak.

"Chen Tiance!!!"

The voice of Master Huizhao suddenly sounded, majestic and solemn.

In an instant.

It even directly suppressed the distorted chanting in the background, the screams of pain, and the sharp whistling of the wind...

Although it only lasted for less than two seconds.

But it shocked everyone and briefly broke away from the fear that penetrated deep into their bones.

Everyone looked at him.

Including Chen Lusi.

"It's a demon!"

Zen Master Huizhao's originally peaceful face was a little distorted, but the illusory Dharma behind him exuded a faint Buddha's light, allowing him to barely stay awake.

He looked at Chen Lusi who had stopped and reminded him with difficulty: "Leave! We have to leave the Buddhist Holy Land! Leave Buddhism first..."

The words are not finished yet.

Crazy laughter interrupted him directly.

on the ground.

Huaiyuan looked at Chen Lusi not far away, with a twisted smile on his face, and suddenly chanted crazily: "...seeing that all five aggregates are empty, you can survive all hardships!!!"

And accompanied by his crazy chanting.

Zen Master Huizhao, who was trying hard to remind Chen Lusi, suddenly froze... motionless.

Everyone froze suddenly, motionless.

Chen Lusi also paused suddenly.

at the same time.

More intensive collapse sounds continued to be heard.

It was as if all the temples in the country collapsed at that moment.

"Hahahahaha..."

Blood and tears kept flowing from the wishful empty eyes, like fountains, leaving dazzling marks on his face.

He laughed crazily again, full of twisted pleasure: "All of you, go to death..."

The words are not finished yet.

Suddenly.

Because, not far away, Chen Lusi... moved again.

He suddenly took a step forward.

And with him taking a step.

The crazy and twisted chanting sound suddenly stopped.

at the same time.

As he took a step forward, with him as the center, the withered and withered weeds around him suddenly came to life again, and the shriveled reptiles that had been sucked dry of their flesh and blood also bounced back to life and began to move slowly.

"..."

The wish was accompanied by blood and tears, and his arms began to tremble again.

In the distance, Chen Lusi took the second step.

The unknown wild fruits on the branches began to quickly regain their vitality, and the bright red... blood-like juice began to flow back, becoming bright red and translucent in an instant.

The withered and yellowed leaves on the ground also began to swirl back to the ends of the trees, and green appeared again.

If.

The wish I had just now was to wither all life around me.

Then, Chen Lusi, who is moving forward at this moment, is making everything rejuvenated.

Walk all the way.

All the way to life.

The mist dare not get close.

Don't hear the sound of chanting.

Amidst the chaos, hope emerged.

"..."

When Huaiyuan saw this scene, not only his arms, but also his whole body started to tremble.

He subconsciously raised his hand again.

but.

The Buddha behind him had no Buddha light, no lotus, no compassionate Buddha, but no movement.

He turned around suddenly and looked behind him.

Then.

He discovered that the Buddha, who had a ferocious face, a sharp mouth and fangs, was like an evil ghost... At some point, a lotus flower appeared under his feet. Although there were still blood stains on his face, he was full of compassion, majesty and solemn, looking down at him. .

The Bodhisattva lowered his eyebrows.

snap——

A very human look of astonishment appeared on Huaiyuan's face again.

He hasn't reacted yet.

Footsteps suddenly sounded.

He turned his head stiffly, and Chen Lusi had already walked in front of him and stood still.

"How can it be……"

Huaiyuan slowly raised his head and looked at Chen Lusi with empty eyes, the crazy look on his face disappeared without a trace.

What answered him was the sound of turning books.

Chen Lusi raised his right hand, and the thick "Book of Pictures" opened automatically.

It started to turn over and over, and the names at the beginning of each page began to pass by - 'the name of evil charm', 'the name of evergreen', 'the name of history', 'the name of folk custom', 'the name of the world' , 'ancient name', 'name of dragon and tiger'...

The pages of the book kept turning, creating a gentle breeze that slightly blew Chen Lusi's ponytail.

He looked down at the constantly turning pages of the book with a calm expression.

Huaiyuan looked at this scene in astonishment.

soon.

‘The Book of Pictures’...turn to the last page.

The sound of turning books suddenly stopped.

As the blown ponytail fell gently, Chen Lusi slowly raised his head, looked down at Huai Yuan, and at the same time raised his other hand.

Snapped--

Chen Lusi suddenly closed the 'Book of Pictures' that had been turned to the last page. At the same time, he gently grasped it with his left hand and said flatly, "You don't belong here."

The next second.

brush--

Huaiyuan's vision went dark and he found that everything around him had disappeared.

The main hall, the Buddha statues, the black mist, and even the Zen masters.

Everything.

All gone.

All around him, there was only deep black, endless black.

Huaiyuan froze on the spot.

But soon, a warmth suddenly appeared on his face, attracting his attention.

He realized something, froze again, and tremblingly...opened his eyes.

Then... slowly opened his mouth.

Sunlight.

The dazzling sunlight was shining on his face.

Jiming Temple.

Still Jiming Temple.

There is no scary black fog, the trees and weeds have not withered, there are no ferocious Buddha statues, and there are no distorted chanting sounds.

The sunset with a bit of scorching heat makes the scenery of Jiming Temple more vivid.

The whole world is filled with glow.

Chen Lusi, on the other hand, still stood quietly in front of him.

far away.

Zen Master Huizhao...all the Zen masters, including Si Yujie and others, all opened their mouths and stared at the peaceful Jiming Temple at this moment, dumbfounded.

The moment when I just made a wish.

Zen Master Huizhao really thought it was over.

His mind was still stuck on that moment of despair.

but.

The next second.

He saw the peaceful Jiming Temple.

And he didn't even know what was happening...

Almost subconsciously.

Everyone looked at Chen Lusi... at Chen Lusi who was in the center.

Then.

They discovered that Huai Yuan had also changed back.

The blood stains on his face disappeared, and eyeballs reappeared in the empty eye sockets, and he was... looking at Chen Lusi blankly.

Chen Lusi and Huai Yuan on the ground looked at each other, and thinking of his recent journey to the underworld, he suddenly said: "Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, after walking in the deep Prajnaparamita for a long time, he saw that the five aggregates are empty, and he survived all the hardships."

He calmly recited the sutra he had just recited again... and recited it to the monk in front of him.

Say it.

He no longer cared about the astonished Huai Yuan, and without even looking at him, he turned around and came to Si Yujie and Tang Yu.

The two women were not much better at the moment, clinging to each other and looking at Chen Lusi in confusion and shock.

Chen Lusi smiled and then said: "Let's go."

"Go...go?"

It seemed too shocking.

Or simply don't know what happened.

Si Yujie, who has always looked like a royal lady, stuttered a bit when speaking.

Chen Lusi nodded.

Seeing Chen Lusi nodding.

The long-standing trust moved the two of them.

They subconsciously followed Chen Lusi, turned around and walked towards the exit of Jiming Temple.

The Zen masters around him still had their mouths open, staring at Chen Lusi's back in confusion and shock.

As Chen Lusi was walking, he suddenly thought of something. He paused, then turned around, looked around at the Zen masters around him, and said with a calm expression: "If you still want to leave and go to the holy place in your mind to take refuge in the Buddha, Yes, I agree, but you cannot take away even one domestic antiquities, nor can you take away even one monk besides you.

Also, you cannot take away the authority and ability that you originated in the country. "

Say it.

He turned his head again and came to Xia Panqiu and the little girl. He first smiled at Xia Panqiu, then reached out and rubbed the little girl's head.

The little girl raised her head and looked at Chen Lusi, her big eyes blinking with shock.

Chen Lusi didn't say anything, just took her hand and led her outside.

"..."

"..."

Dead silence.

All the eminent monks looked at the back of Chen Lusi who was leaving, and there was a dead silence.

You can hear a pin drop.

agreed.

Chen Lusi agreed.

But no one was happy.

Snapped.

The next second.

Finally someone reacted.

Zen Master Huizhao looked at Chen Lusi's back blankly, sat down on the ground, and murmured in a trembling voice: "The Book of Pictures... is really the Book of Pictures... The Book of Pictures... appears in people's eyes." In the hands of..."

Hear his words.

The Zen masters around him slowly came to their senses and slowly opened their eyes.

And they didn't have time to speak.

Click——

There was a sudden cracking sound.

Everyone turned their heads again and looked in the direction from which the sound came...with a wish.

Huaiyuan is still sitting on the ground.

He also heard the cracking sound and slowly lowered his head.

...That was the sound of his heart being broken.

And accompanied by stone fragmentation.

The spirit in him began to dissipate rapidly.

In a blink of an eye.

He became...an ordinary person.

Ordinary people through and through.
