Chapter 54: Group Beating (Part 2)

  "I bow my head to the ground and take refuge in Sudarshana, with seven limbs I prostrate and pay homage. Now I praise the great Dharani, may compassionate protection be upon me, Namo Siddham. Three jewels of Buddha, Dharma, Sangha..."

  A faint Buddha sound floated by, the illusion was suddenly dispelled. Lin Fan and Ximen Shuai simultaneously pushed away the woman beside them, and the woman immediately transformed into a tree. Zhang Tongyuan stroked the tree with grief: "Alas, I... which bastard, good Daoist master, what's going on."

  "The Buddha's mercy is to save you, but you speak evil words, beware of the Buddha's transcendence." A monk sat on a Zen stick and fell down. Who else could it be if not an absolute beauty? How could an absolute beauty come here? To say that this person is despicable and shameless is true, but they also take it upon themselves to subdue demons and exorcise evil spirits. Due to the fact that all the young men within the range of Zitianmen's power have been captured, the disciples of Zitianmen sneak out to capture people outside Xizhou Pass. Just as Jue Se was about to head to a certain temple in Xizhou to report that they hadn't obtained the Wu Xin Teng, they coincidentally ran into each other. Jue Se was puzzled in her heart - why did this evil person want to capture living beings? So she disguised herself as an ordinary monk on the road and when facing off against the Zitianmen disciples, she knelt down and begged for mercy before capturing them. Only after forcing them to confess did she learn that a thousand-year-old fox spirit requires the hearts of several young men every month as medicine. After asking about the location of Cuilu Valley, she rushed over to subdue the demon and exorcise the evil spirit.

  In Hinayana Buddhism, subduing demons and evil spirits is to save people. In Mahayana Buddhism, it's more complicated. There's a story about a tiger that was so hungry it wanted to eat humans, but the monk stopped it. To prevent the tiger from starving to death, he fed himself to the tiger. Hinayana Buddhists scoff at this, saying "teach a man to fish rather than giving him fish", you feed it today and tomorrow the tiger will still want to eat something. Getting rid of the man-eating tiger is actually an act of compassion.

  "Absolutely gorgeous!" Ximen Ze and Lin Fan didn't expect Jue Se to lend a hand.

  "Remember that you two owe me a favor. If you show disrespect to me again, it's ingratitude and you'll go down to the 18th level of hell."

  Ximen Xiuzhen disdainfully said: "Nonsense."

  The thousand-year-old fox spirit saw this situation and knew it was bad. Thinking of a way to escape in her heart, she said on the surface: "Who are you?"

  "Benefactor, don't you remember me?" The beauty asked: "Two hundred years ago, you passed by a mountain range and saw a young monk being chased by hungry wolves. You lent a hand to help him, that monk was my master."

  Is that so? The thousand-year-old demon fox was puzzled. Judging from the current combat strength, it's not necessary for Absolute Beauty to lie. There are two possibilities: first, she really did it; second, Absolute Beauty mistook someone else. In any case, it's a good thing. The thousand-year-old demon fox turned her eyes and asked, "Then why did you help them?"

  "Benefactor, I saw that they were in mortal danger. Firstly, I couldn't bear to see them die, and secondly, I couldn't bear for you to commit the sin of murder. That's why I intervened. Ximen Chao and Lin Fan, since you're under my Buddha's care, quickly scram!"

  Although Xi Men Shuai was very unhappy, he knew the demonic sect's rules by heart and understood that Jue Se had saved himself. Attacking Jue Se now would be inappropriate, so he snorted and flew up with his???? (Qian Kun Quan). Lin Fan said, "Monk, she's not a good person, be careful." He also rose into the air, hovering at mid-air.

  Zhang Tongyuan looked around and said: "Only Dao Ye is left, come on, let's play with Dao Ye." Then Bai Hongjian attacked the thousand-year-old demon fox.

  With a swift and decisive movement, he used his staff to deflect the attack, his body retreating continuously until he reached the side of the fox spirit. He joined his hands in a Buddhist greeting: "Amitabha Buddha, why is this gentleman so obstinately deluded?"

  "Get out of the way." Zhang Tongyuan was unhappy and felt strange. The Buddha's door soldiers were the strongest, but how could they push their opponents so far in this collision?

  "To repay your kindness, this poor monk can only help you attain enlightenment." As soon as the words fell, the Zen staff in his hand shone brightly, with Sanskrit characters swirling around it. Zhang Tong's eyes were fixed intently on him, but before he could react, a staff struck down at the thousand-year-old demon fox's head.

  "Ah!" The thousand-year-old fox spirit didn't expect the beauty to suddenly turn against her, let out a miserable cry, fell to the ground motionless, and transformed back into its original form, a white-furred fox.

  Just as Zhang Tongyuan was stunned, the beauty grabbed the fox and ran. Zhang Tongyuan muttered to himself: "What is he doing? I'm going... a dead donkey stealing my fur! A thieving bald donkey, where are you going?"

  The demon is going to be subdued, and this treasure is also going to be taken, there's no conflict between the two at all.

  A sudden change occurred, and Ximen Commander looked carefully, his heart chilled. He was dead... Where did the dead fox go to exchange for Lei Yun Hu Po? I don't know if Baiyan Mojun will go crazy with fire, willing to use Lei Yun Hu Po in exchange for a corpse? Even if he made the exchange, wouldn't they turn against him afterwards?

  "Shrink the sky and land!" A gust of wind blew in front of Jue Se, and a hand grasped the fox's corpse. Jue Se smiled secretly, thinking that Daoist was competing with him for the treasure. The Zen staff shone brightly, its power doubled, but he didn't expect Lin Fan to have a Buddhist treasured sword on his body that surpassed the Zen staff in grade. With the help of Tong Ling, he snatched the fox's corpse in one move.

  Niu Bizi, where are you going? The color of the air is urgent and defeated, Zhang Tongyuan's white rainbow sword has already killed him. He hurriedly held up his Zen staff to block a move and pointed at Lin Fan: "He snatched it away."

  "I know." Zhang Tongyuan hastily pursued Lin Fan and left. The White Rainbow Sword directly pursued Lin Fan, only seeking to block him.

  Lin Fan suddenly turned around and asked: "Do you dare to kill me?"

  Zhang Tongyuan was shocked and quickly pinched a technique, the White Rainbow Sword reversed, jokingly snatching things back. The disciples of the Purple Bamboo Temple had defeated the disciples of Cloud Clear Mountain, how could they explain themselves? But thinking about it again didn't seem right either. Zhang Tongyuan's hands were capable, without using the sword blade, he used the hilt to strike Lin Fan's body, causing Lin Fan's body to shatter and turn into a soybean.

  Dazzling technique, to use dazzling technique in such a short time, impressive. Zhang Tongyuan's eyes shone brightly and he immediately discovered something unusual in the soil, apparently after snatching the fox corpse, it split into two, its true body entering the ground, while its fake body escaped.

  Zhang Tongyuan pointed to the ground, and the White Rainbow Sword pierced through the earth. A sword aura burst out of the ground and chased after Lin Fan. However, unexpectedly, a Qiankun Circle intercepted the White Rainbow Sword, and Zhang Tongyuan became enraged: "Ximen Commander, scram! This doesn't concern you. No one has ever dared to snatch something from this lord."

  "Whose thing was this originally?"

  It's complicated, if there was no self, the green screen would not be broken, and there would be no absolute color to break the charm. However, the absolute color has deceived everyone, killing the fox and stealing the corpse. Lin Fan had already counted in his heart, as soon as the absolute color started, he snatched it... If you say that without Ximen Shuai and Lin Fan, self would have been killed by Zi Ye. Calculating the gratitude and resentment like this, this skin should be considered as absolute color's, only absolute color has no debt to anyone, and also saved everyone. However, absolute color used deceitful means to snatch...

  What's going on? Zhang Tongyuan hadn't even sorted out the complicated relationships when Lin Fan disappeared. Zhang Tongyuan was furious, and with a single stroke of his White Rainbow Sword, he killed West Gate Commander. He had come to peel off skin, did they think it would be easy to fly so far? Jue Se was cursing loudly on the spot, these righteous people were too despicable...

  Just then, Lin Fan flew back, and Ximen Shuai was stunned. Are you going to be a model? You being a model is fine, but should this corpse be given to Zhang Tongyuan or Jue Se? It's better for you to take the blame with the corpse. Zhang Tongyuan and Jue Se were delighted: Ah, conscience has been discovered! At the same time, they exchanged a meaningful glance. As someone with noble sentiments, Lin Fan was clearly not interested in superficial things, so the only contenders left were the two of them.

  "Run!" Lin Fan shouted loudly and swiftly flew away without stopping.

  "Your skin."

  "That's your skin." You chase after it, Master Dao, I'll take advantage of the cheap deal.

  "Wait for your death, Baiyanmokun is here!" Lin Fan shouted loudly as he turned his head back.
