Chapter 40: Righteousness and Morality

  "This is a good man, with a rare and extraordinary bone structure, he must have an affinity with the Buddha!"

  Ci Hang Pu Du held a nine-ring tin staff in his hand, with Buddha's light hanging behind his head. His face was full of kindness, but he only placed his palm on the door of Shen Hui Zhen Ren. With a press of his power, he injected the golden light from his hand into Shen Hui Zhen Ren's body. Shen Hui Zhen Ren, who was kneeling on the cloud, suddenly let out a miserable cry and was dissolved into nothingness.

  "Shen Hui Shi Di!"

  Jian Du Zhen Ren and others glared with anger, but their limbs were unable to move, all falling seated on the ground silently operating their true yuan to protect themselves from being stirred by the increasingly mocking and murderous mantra. Only Da Dong Zhen Jun's eyes flowed with tears, drawing a celestial sword from his sleeve, about to charge forward in front of Ci Hang Pu Du.

  Ci Hang Pu Du is considering in his heart whether to stew the Xuan Kong Qing or braise it, or if it's also a good material for making the perfect Ten-whole Tonic Soup.

  Hehe, old monk's big pot is ready, please help yourself, little Taoist.

  Knowing that he is not a match for the two Buddha's gate disciples, Da Dong Zhen Jun has already had the intention to die. He plans to have a fierce battle with these two Buddhist disciples, even if he dies in battle, it will not be in vain for the sake of his friendship with the twelve true kings of the Jing Ming Tao.

  He suddenly made a move, and the rest of the true monarchs all jumped up from the cloud, desperately taking out their own treasures to protect themselves beside the Great Cave True Monarch.

  "My life is at an end!" Xuan Kong's mind went blank for a moment, and for a while, he was confused about the flow of time and space, unable to distinguish reality.

  It seems like he has returned to the days when he was hanging out with his seniors, fighting for territory and getting into gang fights. He doesn't know where he got the energy from, but he started chanting the true words, his two hands moving like windmills, striking out thousands of palm-thunderbolts, and he himself rushed forward, pouncing on the enemy to attack.

  Knowing I'm no match for him, yet still having the courage of a shining sword!

  Ci Hang Pu Du was also affected by the aura of the various True Lords, and involuntarily took a step back. Just then, Xuan Kong's palm thunder struck, stirring up a cloud of fog. Da Dong True Lord's hair was disheveled, and he saw Ci Hang Pu Du's entourage as well as Ju Ying Ming Wang disappear before his eyes:

  "Good monk, where did he go?"

  Xuan Kong Zhen Yuan didn't support, followed behind and said a word "be careful", but saw the clouds and fog dispersed, a golden Buddha with his hands clasped together was sitting on top of Da Dong Zhen Jun and others, with a broad face and big ears, it was actually Sakyamuni Buddha manifesting in the world, the arrival of the Buddha of Many Treasures.

  "Hey, what are you!" Zheng Tian shouted in surprise and doubt.

  The golden Buddha image in the air said: "I am the Namu Extreme Bliss World, the Western Heaven Tathagata is here. What kind of evil Tao are you that dare to blaspheme my Buddha?"

  "Good monk, you even dare to impersonate the Western Heaven's Sakyamuni Buddha?" The Great Cave True Lord naturally didn't believe that Ci Hang Pu Du was an incarnation of the Tathagata, but what he didn't expect was that this Great Song Dynasty's Guardian Dharma Master would even dare to impersonate the Buddha himself. This battle is now impossible to fight.

  "People can't tell black from white, the true body of the Tathagata is here, why don't you demons quickly surrender?"

  "Believe it or not!" Tian Hui Zhen Ren, Hong Shi Zhen Ren and Wei Dao Zhen Ren stepped on the Heaven and Earth, Human and Three Talents positions, and suddenly pushed out a True Fire from the Golden Buddha's Dharma Body. The Golden Buddha clapped his palms together and used golden light to strike back the True Fire to its original path.

  The three True Lords only felt a force like a mountain collapse coming from their hands, extremely fierce and unparalleled. Not only were the other fellow disciples unable to come out and rescue them in time, but they themselves were also unable to dodge. With a "whoosh" sound, they were burned by the flames on their bodies and turned into black smoke.

  "Junior brother! How detestable!" The Great Cave True Lord gnashed his teeth, but only furiously shouted: "Who allowed you to take action? I am the senior brother of the Jing Ming Sect. I now order all disciples to retreat completely!"

  The other few True Lords saw the Golden Buddha's formidable Buddhist seal and were secretly shocked, but thinking that four of their fellow disciples had already fallen under the Golden Buddha's hands, they couldn't help but feel unwilling to back down. Xuán Kōng was even more unwilling to leave, his eyes wide with anger as he glared at the Golden Buddha, thinking: "This Ci Hang Pu Du said I heard his secret, originally it had nothing to do with the True Lords of Jing Ming Dao, yet because of me, these seniors were implicated."

  He secretly mobilized his true strength, but felt that his body was empty and hollow, unable to muster up even a thread of energy.

  Dadong Zhenjun pinched his hand on the xukong pipa bone and threw it to several junior brothers behind him. He turned around and sneered, "You little guy is showing off your strength, now you're not a match for this monk, are you going to be a match for this monk for the rest of your life?"

  "As long as the green mountain is there, we won't worry about firewood!"

  Xuan Kong knew that Da Dong Zhen Jun was trying to protect himself, but he couldn't help feeling resentful in his heart. He struggled for a while before finally lowering his head. It was all in vain that he had come to this world to cultivate for over a decade, thinking that there were few who could rival him, only to find out that it was just a insignificant centipede spirit from his past life that could easily take his life.

  He couldn't help but feel indignant and a wave of despair. He didn't dare look at the Great Cave True Lord again, and simply let the Demon Degree True Person carry him away to escape by transforming into a rainbow.

  Dahong Zhenjun drew his sword, ready to confront Jinfalawang, but Jinfalawang's mind was entirely focused on Xuankong. How could he let his own dish fly away? Jinfalawang bypassed Dahong Zhenjun and chased after the retreating cloud path of the Jingming Dao True Lords.

  Knowing that Jinfalang is going to kill them, their own lives are hard to protect.

  Dadong Zhenjun burst out laughing: "Today, I, Wu Meng, will also risk my life once!" He flew forward and rushed in front of the Golden Buddha's Dharma Body, using the Taiqing Sword Energy to strike at the Golden Buddha's Dharma Body. This Taiqing Sword Energy was personally transmitted by Laozi, the Holy Ancestor, and later on, Bai Mei Dao Ren relied on this Taiqing Sword Energy to create the famous Shu Shan Sword Sect that shook the world for a time.

  From this, it can be seen that the Taichang sword energy is not easy to come by?

  The Golden Buddha's path was blocked by the Great Cave True Lord, who occupied the cloud road. He couldn't catch up with Xuankong again and kept shouting "What a pity!" in his heart, venting all his anger on the Great Cave True Lord. The Great Cave True Lord transformed his sword into countless paths, pointing at the Golden Buddha and scolding: "Good monk, stop pretending in front of me! If you continue to pretend, you might even think you're the real Old Buddha!"

  A duck that was already in hand, after being cooked, still flew away. Ci Hang Pu Du's eyes were filled with rage, but he restrained himself and stood before Da Dong Zhen Jun, clasped his hands together and said: "Put down your butcher knife and become a Buddha on the spot!"

  This time, the fatal blow was aimed at Daxiong Zhenjun alone, a pure contest of magical powers between two people. Daxiong Zhenjun's cultivation time was not as long as Ci Hang Pudu, and his true yuan was not as strong as Ci Hang Pudu. At this moment, he felt dizzy and his head was spinning. The immortal sword that had been in harmony with his mind suddenly became heavy like a thousand pounds, almost impossible to grasp.

  "Magic spell!" The Great Cave True Lord lowered his sword tip and stuck it into the cloud, covering his chest with his hand and humming.

  He stood still, but Ci Hang Pu Du had a smile on his face and walked step by step towards Da Dong Zhen Jun. With each step he took, the Buddha's light on his body grew stronger, and as he stretched out his hand to touch Da Dong Zhen Jun's forehead, Ci Hang Pu Du was about to harm the immortal again.

  At this time, a clear air shot out from thirty-three days away, blocking the hands of Ci Hang Pu Du.

  A bright light burst forth from the entire body of Dàdòng Zhēn Jūn, and when he opened his eyes again, Dàdòng Zhēn Jūn had vanished without a trace. Ci Hang Pu Du was startled by this sight, only then realizing that there were higher powers beyond his own realm that he had provoked. Not daring to oppose the saint, he hastily transformed into a golden light and fled in haste towards Bianjing City.
