Chapter Twenty-Four: The Hypocrites Stand and Stand
"Ge Chang"
The gate of Tianyin Temple slowly opened, and a group of monks walked out of the door, it was Pu Hong and others.
Pu Hong walked up to Li Fei, saluted, and said, "Welcome to Master Li and all the fellow Daoists of the Five Spirit Immortal Sect to our temple." β
Li Fei waved his hand and said, "The master doesn't have to be polite, I'm not here to be a guest, so I won't be polite to the master." β
After saying this, he raised his voice and said: "Zhang Xiaobo, Zhang Xiaofan, Lin Xiaoyue, Lin Jingyu, Xiang Nanpeng, Wang Qingyun, the six of you are the only remaining villagers in Caomiao Village. β
The six of them said in unison: "But it's up to the ancestor (senior) to decide." β
Li Fei bowed his head and said, "Okay, Master Puhong, you guys go and prepare!" A moment later, the Throne will unleash a Thunderstorm. β
"Amitabha."
Puhong pronounced the Buddha's horn and led the monks back to the square in front of the temple nave and walked into the monks.
Pu Hong shouted: "You can't get up the Ming King's Demon Array. β
As soon as his voice fell, nearly a thousand monks immediately moved, each occupying a position.
It seems that there is no regular order in which they stand, whether they are far or near, but there is also a certain pattern implied in them.
Looking down from the sky, you will find that their positions faintly form an ancient font, which seems to be the appearance of the Buddhist mantra.
All the monks were clasping their palms together at this moment, chanting the simple and mysterious scriptures in their mouths, and their bodies were glowing with a faint golden light.
Among them, the most dazzling place is in the center of the big array, which is where Pu Hong's uncle, the nameless old monk, is located.
As time passed, nearly a thousand golden rays of light gradually became stronger, and the faint sound of Sanskrit singing seemed to come from the sky.
After a while, I saw that in the formation of the monks, the golden rays flowed, the Buddha was solemn, and the golden light emitted by the monks became more and more dazzling.
After a dozen breaths, but a deafening roar was heard, and a phantom image of the Buddha showing an angry appearance slowly condensed in the center of the large array.
The Sanskrit chanting became louder and louder, the heavens and the earth were solemn, and the phantom of the Buddha became more and more condensed, and the golden light emitted by it was more dazzling than the sun of the near noon.
Fudo Ming King is the first seat of the eight Ming kings of Buddhism, and it has the intention of being able to sweep away obstacles when encountering any difficulties, and is not shaken.
The King of Fudo manifests the image of wrath so that the evil demons that infest sentient beings are frightened and kept away, so that sentient beings do not waver in their bodhichitta on the path of cultivation.
And the Fudo Ming King Imperial Demon Great Array is the first guardian array of Tianyin Temple, which has both offense and defense, and in terms of defense, it is even stronger than attack.
"Buzz"
With a hum, a golden curtain of light spread out from the huge Ming King Phantom Shadow, enveloping the entire Tianyin Temple in an instant.
The light curtain was like a huge golden bell, holding Tianyin Temple in it.
Outside the golden bell, a circle of golden swaskats is like a chain, rotating from top to bottom with clockwise, counterclockwise, clockwise, and counterclockwise rules.
If it is against an enemy, those saffts can be cast to attack the target.
But now their main purpose is defense, and these parts used to attack can be used to slightly offset the power of the thunder.
Outside the temple, seeing that the entire Tianyin Temple was shrouded in the golden bell, Li Fei knew that they were ready, and immediately flew up and rose into the air.
He sealed his hands and recited a mantra in his mouth: "Five Spirits Edict, Thunder God Qiangliang borrows the law......"
Suddenly, the heavens and the earth changed color.
Infinite black clouds condensed out of thin air, like a monstrous wave, churning endlessly in mid-air, and quickly spreading in all directions.
The crowd gradually held their breath, they had never seen such a thick cloud, so thick that it seemed to drip ink.
Almost in a moment, the blue sky and white day turned into a deep night, and the sunlight was completely blocked by the black clouds that were so thick that they could not be dissolved, and there was no trace of penetration.
Just a prelude, it already has the power of almost reversing day and night.
"Boom Rumble Rumble......"
The terrifying rolling thunder surged like a tidal wave, and it seemed that every inch of space in the black cloud was filled with endless thunder.
In Tianyin Temple, don't say that the ordinary monks, even Puhong and the dry old monks' faces are all pale.
"His thunder method is so terrifying, thunder tribulation, thunder tribulation, this is really a catastrophe that Tianyin Temple has not encountered for thousands of years!"
"Thunder...... Held...... Ten thousand...... Jun...... Punish evil. β
A roar like thunder, like the sound of the avenue, slowly spread in all directions.
"Boom ......"
Between the heaven and earth, which had originally become pitch black, there was a sudden brightness, and the disciples of the Five Spirit Immortal Sect, as well as Tian Buyi Qinglong and other masters, couldn't help but squint their eyes.
The moment the first wave of thunder came, the light was too dazzling, and they had never seen such a brilliant thunder.
The thunder that was like a world-destroying heavenly punishment from the gods made their hearts full of despair just by seeing it.
The thunder Wanjun unleashed by Li Fei, the power of each thunderbolt, was not under the five thunders that Li Junyao cast back then, and the five elements divine thunder that was condensed.
However, at this time, hundreds of such thunderbolts smashed down, and Tian Buyi felt that if he was in it, he was afraid that if he couldn't even hold on to ten breaths, he would be wiped out.
"Boom"
The first wave of thunder fell on the defensive wall of the Immovable Ming King's Imperial Demon Array, and in the loud noise, Pu Hong and all the other monks of Tianyin Temple were shocked.
The faces of the monks who practiced a little lower were flushed, and some of the corners of their mouths were already overflowing with blood.
Pukong was shocked and said: "The power is so huge, we can't bear it, we can't carry the nine-fold one." β
Pu Hong's face was also pale, and he muttered, "Could it be that today is the day of the destruction of my Tianyin Temple?" β
"Punish evil."
"Boom ......"
As Li Fei said another "evil curse", the second wave of thunder descended.
"Puff puff ......"
Many junior disciples opened their mouths and spurted out a stream of blood, and they were already seriously injured, but they were still struggling to support themselves, and they did not dare to relax at all.
"Punish the evil...... Evil ...... Punish the evil ......"
"Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"
The word "evil spirit" is the signal of the five spirit immortal arts, and every sound of evil is a wave of thunder descending.
By the fifth wave, there were nearly 100 junior disciples of Tianyin Temple withering on the ground, and the large array that enveloped the entire Tianyin Temple was already crumbling.
At this time, even Puhong and other masters had already suffered internal injuries, and the corners of their mouths were bleeding.
"Buzz ......"
All kinds of magic weapons glowing with golden light rose to the sky, and one by one they merged into the Dharma of the Immovable Ming King.
Great Compassion Golden Wheel, Futu Golden Bowl, Reincarnation Bead, Vajra Wand, Demon Suppression Pestle......
As a large number of magic weapons were integrated into the Dharma of the Immovable Ming King, the crumbling array re-stabilized.
"Punish the evil...... Punish the evil ......"
"Boom Boom Boom ......"
Two waves of thunder came, from the dry old monk below, the monks of Tianyin Temple spurted blood one by one, and most of the monks had fallen.
Many magic weapons lost the control of their owners and fell from the sky, and the great array was once again on the verge of destruction.
And the high-level disciples, led by the Fa Prime Minister and still struggling to support them, were all seriously injured, and if they received another thunderbolt, I was afraid that they would run out of oil and lamps.
How many of those monks who fell to the ground survived, but no one can say.
Pu Hong's heart is dripping blood, these are all elite disciples of the sect, the mainstay!
After this catastrophe, Tianyin Temple is about to suffer a big injury, and I am afraid it will be difficult to recover for a hundred years.
Seeing this, the withered old monk sighed lightly, and actually flew up, rushed out of the big array, flew outside the illusory golden bell, and sat cross-legged on the top of the bell.
"Uncle Shi......" Pu Hong cried out bitterly.
The dry old monk sat cross-legged in the Buddha's dharma and recited the mantra: "Om...... Well...... This...... Trumpet...... Catβs meow...... Bellow. β
The old monk's body was full of golden light, and he used his own strength on top of the large array to support a layer of defense.
When Li Fei in the sky saw this scene, his eyes flashed.
Very well, as long as you die, there will be no one to hinder me from obtaining the fourth volume of the Book of Heaven.
The cultivation of this old monk, according to Li Fei's system, is about the late Yuan Infant period.
Although it is definitely not his opponent, it can also make him make some big moves and alarm others.
To put it bluntly, Li Fei not only wants to be a watch, but also has to erect the archway, so naturally he doesn't want to be known about his plot against Tianyin Temple.
is this old monk who has been guarding the wordless jade all his life, which is the target he must get rid of.
In fact, he proposed the so-called "Nine Thunder Tribulations", which was aimed at this old monk.
At the same time, by the way, all the capable people in Tianyin Temple were seriously injured, and they didn't have time to take care of the wordless jade.
He had been planning for this since a long time ago.
Since he went to Caomiao Village seven years ago to accept Zhang Xiaobo and a few people into the Immortal Sect, he was laying out for today.
Without the name and position of the orphaned master of Caomiao Village, he would have no reason to intervene in the Caomiao Village bloodbath, let alone take action against Tianyin Temple.
If you want to take away the fourth volume of the Book of Heaven, you will inevitably have to confront the old monk, and finally end up ruined.
Most of the time, Li Fei is willing to be a good person, but the ultimate goal of his reincarnation experience is to improve his strength after all.
When it comes to this, he doesn't mind going unscrupulous.
But no matter how unscrupulous he is, he doesn't want to be known by others.
It can be said that in fact, Li Fei is a hypocrite who is not a hypocrite.
Unlike real hypocrites, hypocrites are superficially good people, just to cover up their own private darkness, with a clear purpose.
And when Li Fei is a good person, he really wants to be a good person, and has nothing to do with anything else, only when it comes to cultivation, he will do whatever it takes, so he is not a hypocrite.
After years of planning, it's time to harvest.
He stared at the old monk who was covered in golden light, and gently spit out two words in his mouth: "Punish evil." β
"Boom ......"
The eighth thunder fell, and the old monk disappeared in an instant, and the big array once again turned into the appearance of being unbroken.
Pu Hong closed his eyes in pain, but his expression gradually calmed down, and only the last thunder remained.
But this big array was already on the verge of shattering, and the ninth thunder descended, how many of the remaining disciples could survive?
Faxiang They are the future of Tianyin Temple, and they can't be sacrificed anymore!
"Senior Brother Pukong, Tianyin Temple...... It's up to you in the future. β
Pukong and Fa Xiang were shocked.
"Senior brother, what do you want to do?"
"Master, don't."
Pu Hong said calmly: "Senior Brother Pu Zhi created boundless killing, and I deliberately concealed it in order to protect the reputation of the sect, so that I harmed Zhang Xiaofan's benefactor's life, and I was also deeply guilty. β
"If I don't go to hell, who will?"
Speaking of this, he, like the old monk, flew to the top of the Golden Bell, and finally left a sentence: "Let this heavenly thunder wash away my sins for me!" β
"Master, ......" the Dharma Minister cried bitterly, and Pukong also preached with a sad expression: "Amitabha." β
"Hmmm...... Well...... This...... Trumpet...... Catβs meow...... Bellow. β
The six-character mantra resounded in the sky again.
At this time, Li Fei's divine sense enveloped the audience, and he naturally heard Pu Hong's words, and secretly admired it in his heart, but he was also a responsible person.
It is also commendable that he can recognize what he has done wrong.
That's it, his main target, the old monk is dead, and the monks of Tianyin Temple are also suffering heavy casualties, if Puhong dies again, the balance between the two realms of righteousness and demons may be broken, and he will be killed.
Thinking of this, Li Fei's hand seal recipe changed, and it had changed from the "Thunderball" technique to the mid-level large-scale attack Thunder Spirit Immortal Technique "Wild Thunder".
Sensing Pu Hong's breath, I am afraid that he can't even withstand the wild thunder, so he sighed helplessly, and changed his trick again, and changed it to a low-level large-scale attack thunder spirit immortal technique "Heavenly Thunder Break".
"Punish evil."
"Boom ......"
The thunder was still dazzling and dazzling, and the people who were watching, except for Tian Buyi, Su Ru, Qinglong, Youji, and the hall master of the Ten Palaces, the others did not feel the changes, including the twenty-five elders.
After all, the gap in the cultivation realm is too big.
Pu Hong, who was facing the thunder, clearly felt that this last wave of thunder still looked so terrifying, as if the end was coming, but the actual power was more than ten times smaller.
"Poof"
Pu Hong did not disappear, but after the defense he had laid out with his own cultivation was shattered, he spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell weakly from mid-air.
Looking at Li Fei, who was staring at him in mid-air and letting go of his hands, Pu Hong instantly understood, and muttered in his mouth: "Thank you." β
The last wave of thunder was carried over, and the monks who gritted their teeth to support them suddenly relaxed, and the big array collapsed immediately.
Everyone either fell to the ground weakly, or sat cross-legged on the spot.
Except for the two high-ranking monks Pukong and Pude, no one can stand.
Looking at Pu Hong who fell, the monks were surprised and delighted, Fa Xiang was no longer able to fly at this time, but Pu Kong still had the strength to fly, and flew up to catch Pu Hong.
He said to Puhong in surprise: "Senior brother, you ...... You've carried it. β
Pu Hong looked at him weakly and sighed lightly: "It's Master Li's subordinates who have shown mercy." β
Pukong was shocked, looked up at Li Fei in the sky in disbelief, and sighed secretly in his heart.
People are close to each other, and their uncle has been participating in Zen without words all his life, except for Pu Hong, no one else has much intersection with him.
It was because of his uncle's death, although he felt pity, but he was not so sad.
And Li Fei's practice of letting Puhong live a way made him feel a little grateful.
Tianyin Temple was killed and injured by Li Fei, and his vitality was greatly damaged, it is impossible to say that he does not hate, he is not so deep in the realm of Buddhism.
But Li Fei's last subordinates showed mercy, but the hatred in his heart dissipated a lot, and finally he gave himself a strategy.
After all, it was the people in Tianyin Temple who committed the sin, so there was such a catastrophe, but it was no wonder that Li Fei was born.
With Li Fei's means, it was enough to raze Tianyin Temple alone, let alone raise a faction to start a war.
If Li Fei hadn't proposed a solution to the Nine Thunder Tribulations at the beginning, but insisted on going to war, Tianyin Temple would probably no longer exist today.
What else did he have to hate? People have been merciful again and again!
Pukong landed on the ground with Puhong in his arms, and Fa Xiang hurriedly got up and ran over, "Master, how are you, Master?" β
Pu Hong looked at him and said: "I'm fine, Master Li's subordinates showed mercy and let me live, the catastrophe of Tianyin Temple has passed, you must practice hard in the future, don't be resentful...... Resentment of the head of the Li family. β
After saying this, his eyes went dark and he passed out.
Dharma Xiang and Pude Heshi, who had just come over, recited: "Amitabha." β
In the sky, the black clouds gradually dissipated, and some light was restored between the heavens and the earth, although it was still dim, but it was no longer as if it was late at night.
Li Fei's voice spread loudly, and everyone could hear it clearly.
"The Nine Thunder Tribulations have passed, and the blood feud between the disciples of the Five Spirit Immortal Sect and Tianyin Temple has been written off."
"The monks of Wangtianyin Temple, while cultivating the means of subduing demons, they should also study the Dharma intensively, improve their state of mind and cultivation, and don't move their delusions lightly."
"It's over, I'll take my leave."
Pude, Pukong, Faxiang, Fashan, and Fazhong all recited together: "Amitabha." β
