Chapter 983 Using Killing to Stop Killing King Ming's Original Heart
"Hmph! Morality?"

"Now that you know how to speak morally, why didn't you talk about morality when you slaughtered creatures and fed on blood?"

Since the little fox dared to follow the cat demon Miaomiao, he naturally knew what the other party did back then.

It's not just as simple as killing people and drinking blood, most of these demons and evil spirits sealed by Zen Master Lingyou have the blood of all living beings in their hands.

It doesn't matter whether it's ordinary human beings, spirit monsters who have just opened their holes, or even those monsters who have successfully cultivated...

In the eyes of these cruel and bloodthirsty monsters, they just eat blood, and they don't care how many creatures they have slaughtered.

"Ugh!"

Hearing the little fox's words, the murderous intent in the old woman's eyes disappeared, replaced by infinite melancholy and regret.

"What Chan Master Lingyou said is indeed true. In this world, retaliation is retaliation."

During the more than 30 years of being sealed by Zen Master Lingyou, the old woman was not deaf to the outside world.

Because Zen Master Lingyou didn't kill these monsters back then, but sealed them with great effort.

Its purpose is not simply to punish them, but more to take this opportunity to influence and persuade them to go on the right path.

After all, those who were stubborn or really sinful and couldn't last the seal at all were killed by Zen Master Lingyou with thunder.

So during the 30 years of being sealed, the Yingshen who stayed in the seal of Zen Master Lingyou has been lecturing to them and teaching them the true way of doing good.

It wasn't until Zen Master Lingyou passed away and the body in the seal disappeared that Mao Yaomiaomiao realized that it was time to get out of trouble.

"Forget it, I should have died back then."

"Now that I have lived for more than 30 years, it is worth it."

Sighing slightly with emotion, the old woman no longer showed any killing intent on her face.

"It's just a pity that Zen Master Lingyou, whose cultivation is earth-shattering, did not live as long as an ordinary person. He is simply jealous of talents."

The little fox could tell that the old woman's emotion was from the bottom of her heart.

After 30 years of nurturing, except for a few stubborn people.

Most of the monsters who were sealed by Zen Master Lingyou back then have been contaminated with Buddha nature, and they have a very deep understanding of their past sins.

The cat demon Miaomiao is obviously one of them, and it is also the one with a deeper Buddha nature.

——Killing is only a means to achieve the goal, but it is not the ultimate goal, let alone the only means.

The old woman felt that if she had been guided by a Buddhist virtuous person like Zen Master Lingyou when she entered the Tao, perhaps she would not have gone astray and committed so many sins.

"Little fox, you are blessed, you should cherish what you have now."

Staring at the suspicious little fox opposite, the old woman suddenly laughed.

In this group of Weishan foxes, the old woman seemed to see another possibility for herself.

A possibility that does not require killing, but only needs to support each other with the same race and be able to survive, or even live better.

At the same time, in a temple that could be abandoned somewhere in Tanzhou.

"Go ahead!"

The strange man with an ugly face but a straight waist sat in front of the Buddha and calmly said to Pei Wende who was opposite him.

"Being able to die at the hands of Master Lingyou's apprentice is also a relief for me."

This ugly monster is not very human, but a demon transformed from a man-eating tree.

Animals have the possibility of cannibalism, and plants naturally have the possibility of cannibalism...

The reason why the man-eating tree demon was able to conceive spiritual wisdom was because someone killed people and buried his corpse under his tree roots, allowing him to absorb the essence of human beings and turn into a demon.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this experience that after turning into a demon, the man-eating tree demon began to prey on humans frantically, and used this to improve his cultivation and Taoism.

It wasn't until being sealed by Zen Master Lingyou that the man-eating tree demon realized the fallacy of his thinking.

In fact, I don't need to prey on living beings, and I can also improve my cultivation and Taoism through other methods.

Those methods are even more convenient, and the benefits are even greater.

It's a pity that it was too late when the man-eating tree demon realized this.

The killing caused by the man-eating tree demon has become a fact. Countless creatures have lost their lives because of him, and countless families have suffered the pain of losing their sons and wives because of him.

In the beginning, the man-eating tree demon actually resented Master Lingyou.

The cannibal tree demon resented Zen master Lingyou for sealing himself here, resenting him for letting him know what is right and what is wrong, what is good and what is evil.

If he didn't know all this, the tree demon would not feel sad or even regret his actions.

However, with the passage of time, the man-eating tree demon gradually understood the painstaking efforts of Zen Master Lingyou.

With the supernatural power of Zen Master Lingyou, he can completely kill himself.

The families of the victims are only heartened by this and have no objections to it.

But Zen Master Lingyou didn't do that. He chose to imprison himself in the seal, chanting scriptures and preaching for himself day and night, not punishing himself, but guiding himself.

Because in the view of Zen Master Lingyou, death is of course the ultimate means of punishment.

But for an existence that is not aware of its mistakes at all, pure punishment is meaningless at all.

Compared with those evil monsters, the man-eating tree demon is more like a "child" who doesn't know what evil is, but just follows instinct and makes mistakes.

At the very least, when Zen Master Lingyou had no intention of killing the man-eating tree demon, how to make the other party stop making mistakes and even take the initiative to do good was what he really wanted to do.

Although Wen Wende did not fully agree with Zen Master Lingyou's idea, he also knew that leading people to be good was far more meaningful than simply killing a wicked person.

Now that the man-eating tree demon has awakened kind thoughts, then Pei Wende wants to see how long the other party's kind thoughts can last.

"I have no grievances with you, why should I kill you?"

So facing the cannibal tree demon's calm death, Pei Wende just retorted calmly.

"In this world, the only ones who are truly qualified to kill you are the victims you killed in the first place."

"I'm not a family member of those victims, and I don't intend to kill demons under the guise of doing justice for heaven, so I won't kill you."

When he said this, Pei Wende's voice paused for a moment before continuing.

"Unless you fall into the devil's way again in front of me one day, and the old monk's painstaking efforts were wasted..."

"In order to prevent you from continuing to commit more murders, I have to kill you myself."

——To stop killing by killing is the original intention of King Ming.
