The light of the sword is like the moon reflecting on Kyushu

The giant golden-eyed serpent stared at Feng Jiuxiao with its cold, vertical pupils, constantly flicking its blood-red tongue.

Feng Jiuxiao slowly took out the Heaven-Shaking Bow with his left hand, held it horizontally at his chest, and with his right hand, he condensed his energy into ice, which then transformed into an arrow! The ice arrow was nocked on the string, and then he slowly drew the bow until the string was as full as a full moon!

Feng Jiuxiao slowly infused lightning power into the ice arrow, causing blue light to flash on the shaft and electric snakes to dance!

Chizu Dezan raised his head to face the heavens and loudly chanted: "Om! Ah Hum Vajra Guru Padme Hum!"

The white lotus on the treetop at the foot of the mountain sneered, "This is a mantra of Indian Buddhism, symbolizing the blessing of the three secrets of body, speech, and mind. With this, one can establish a sacred and majestic tone! He is clearly the leader of the Bon religion, yet he openly and blatantly uses Indian Buddhist mantras to cast spells. It seems he can't keep up the act anymore! A false believer has actually become the true leader!"

Pang Shiwu said, "No wonder you kept saying he was a fake Bon follower. Now I believe you! A fake Bon follower becoming a leader of Bon, even the patriarch, is utterly ridiculous!"

Pang Shiwu knew that within the territory of the Tubo Kingdom, Bon and Buddhism were originally at odds and often clashed. It was only during the reign of King Qusiluo that the two sides managed to maintain a state of mutual non-interference with each other, thanks to the king's strong coordination.
Bai Lian said, "A true Bon follower would never touch anything related to Buddhism; that would be blasphemy against the true god of Bon! It would be a disgrace to oneself!"

Chang Zijin asked, "Who is the true god worshipped by the Bon religion?"

Bai Lian said, "The Bon religion worships four true gods, called the 'Four Primal Gods' or the 'Four Core Gods.' Among them, Sadu Aisang is the goddess of creation, symbolizing primordial wisdom and life force, and is revered as the 'Mother of Gods'; the second, Xinlawo, is the inheritor of the doctrine and serves as the spiritual mentor of Bon; the third, Sangbo Bangchi, is the maintainer of the celestial order and also the enlightener of mortals; the fourth, Xinrao Miwo, is the only human savior who reformed sacrificial rituals and established the tradition of civilized offerings."

Chang Zijin asked, "How does the Bon religion divide the human realm and the divine realm?"

Bai Lian said, "The mythological system of Bon religion is also divided into three realms: the heavenly realm, the earthly realm, and the underworld, with the corresponding rulers being the 'Zan God,' the 'Year God,' and the 'Lu God,' respectively!"
Chang Zijin said, "This is similar to the Central Plains mythology system: Heaven, Earth, Hell, Jade Emperor, Human Emperor, Yama."

Bai Lian said, "Yes, heaven, earth, and hell."

The giant serpent slid down from the mountaintop, its gray scales screeching against the rocks, and its towering body gave off an incredibly suffocating sense of oppression!

whoosh-

Feng Jiuxiao shot out an arrow!
The arrow initially resembled a thin snake, but in an instant it grew thicker and larger, transforming into a python, then a dragon... Before it reached ten feet in front of the great wizard, it had already transformed into an arrow dragon flashing with lightning, five feet in diameter and ten feet long!

Transformed from a snake into a dragon, invincible!
The protective barrier was useless against the arrow dragon. Before the lightning flames even touched the barrier, it seemed to have already felt the astonishing heat and automatically melted open a window!
In an instant, the arrow dragon passed through the barrier through the window and rushed towards the mountain peak without any hindrance!

Chizu Dezan was greatly surprised!
The white-robed youth's first arrow was clearly blocked by the barrier, which is why its speed was slowed down! How come it's suddenly advancing unimpeded without any trouble? The barrier hasn't even been working!

Could it be... that this kid didn't use his full strength just now, and intentionally held back? The giant snake suddenly lunged down like lightning, seemingly intending to take the arrow head-on with its own head!
puff!
Before everyone's eyes, the giant serpent actually got what it asked for. The arrow dragon pierced directly into the serpent's forehead, and with a bang, a ball of cold flame exploded out, with ice shards and shattered scales flying everywhere!

The giant snake hissed in agony, its head thrown back. The arrow had pierced its skull and reached its brain! Its screams were piercing and deafening.

Chizudezan panicked immediately!
He never expected that the "Red Mountain Stone Dragon" would be so vulnerable! The opponent killed the stone dragon on the spot with just one arrow!
The Red Mountain Stone Dragon held its head high and stretched its neck straight. Just when we thought it was preparing to charge up for another attack, we suddenly saw its body tremble and freeze in place!
Then, a patch of white frost began to appear from the snake's head and spread downwards. In an instant, the entire giant snake turned into a crystal-clear ice snake, standing tall and firm like an ice pillar atop Red Mountain!
Feng Jiuxiao had already reached the barrier when he suddenly drew his sword with his right hand. With a flash of light, an invisible crack appeared out of thin air in front of him. The crack continued to expand, spreading outwards like ripples. In an instant, a huge "glass cover" resembling an inverted porcelain bowl appeared before everyone's eyes. The cracks on the "glass cover" became denser and denser, and suddenly the "glass cover" shattered with a bang!
The great wizard's barrier has been broken!

Feng Jiuxiao's sword is sheathed, and the person continues to climb upwards!
Chizudezan's expression changed slightly: "We have no grudges against each other, why are you being so aggressive?"

Feng Jiuxiao was taken aback, then said calmly, "Are you chickening out?"

Chi Zude praised, "Yes! Don't you Central Plains people always say that those who know when to yield are heroes? I'm very pragmatic now. Take whatever you want. I'll leave now, and we'll pretend nothing happened. How about that?"

Feng Jiuxiao said, "No."

Chizudezan's expression changed slightly: "Why? Do you want to keep me here?"

"Not bad!"

"Since we have no enmity, why must we be driven to such an extreme?"

"I have no grudge against you, but what about those innocent young men and women?"

Chizudezan suddenly realized, and chuckled coldly: "So you want to stand up for those lowly people?"

Feng Jiuxiao said, "Just for calling them lowly people, you deserve to die! All people are born equal, what gives you the right to regard them as lowly people?"

Chizudezan sneered, "Born equal? ​​Your Central Plains emperors' sons are born with delicacies to eat, fine silks to wear, palace maids to serve them meals, and eunuchs to dress them! While a peasant's son can only eat steamed buns and vegetables, wear coarse cloth and hemp clothes! He toils in the fields from dawn till dusk, enduring the cold and heat, working hard all year just to make ends meet! And you're telling me all people are born equal?"

Feng Jiuxiao said, “Don’t confuse the concepts! The equality of all people refers to the legal level! No one can decide whether they are born rich or poor, noble or lowly! In reality, some people do habitually put themselves above others because they are rich and powerful! But, before the law, everyone is equal! As the saying goes, even a prince is subject to the law! Murderers pay with their lives, thieves go to jail! Your life is a life, but aren’t the lives of those innocent civilians also lives? You treat human life lightly and kill innocent people indiscriminately, so you must atone with your death! Murderers pay with their lives, that’s what equality is!”

The high shaman Chizudezan sneered, "I don't believe that the son of the emperor of the Central Plains would be punished the same as the son of a peasant for breaking the law!" (End of Chapter)
