I'm only one year old, what the hell is the counterattack system?

Chapter 464 Obtaining the Scripture, Breaking the Vajra!
Those with heavy karmic burdens are generally like the monk Fayun.

It wasn't that he had done anything heinous, but rather that his hatred led him to abandon his Buddhist and Taoist cultivation and completely fall into the demonic path, thus causing him to be entangled in karmic obstacles.

This not only destroyed his thousand years of cultivation, but also caused other Buddhist disciples in the Vajra Realm to become Asuras.

The earth-walking monk looked around and his gaze fell on the most magnificent Buddhist hall in the Vajra Temple. He said meaningfully, "There should be quite a few good things here."

“Arhat Buddha, why don’t you go inside and look for them? We can stay here and hold off those Asuras.”

Zhou Guanwu glanced at him, knowing full well that the Earth Monk wasn't so kind, but he couldn't quite figure out what he was thinking.

Chen Yuan was the same, but with the matter of the Six Paths of Reincarnation in mind, he nodded and said, "I'll go take a look."

As soon as he finished speaking, he slipped into the distant main hall.

Yi Mu watched him walk away, glanced at the other two, and while simultaneously killing the Shura who had followed, asked telepathically:
"Monk Tu Xing, what is your intention in making this suggestion?"

"You should know that the Vajra Realm has long been plundered by my 'Pure Land of Bliss'. Even if some remains, they are nothing but scraps."

The Earth-Walking Monk, of course, understood this, and replied with a chuckle through telepathy:
"Don't you think it's a bit strange that the Great Master Mani Kassapa sent us here this time?"

Yi Mu frowned slightly. Based on his understanding of Mani Kassapa, he knew that Mani Kassapa always had a deeper meaning behind his actions.

However, now that he was by Chen Yuan's side, even though he knew that Mani Kasyapa had sent them to the Vajra Realm with a deeper purpose, he still dared not make any rash moves, for fear of affecting Mani Kasyapa's plans.

Thinking of this, he frowned and asked, "What does this have to do with your suggestion?"

The earth-walking monk shook his head. "In my opinion, whether Chen Yuan discovers anything or not is not important."

"The important thing is that the three of us can take this opportunity to avoid the brunt of external attacks."

"As you have seen, that monk Fayun has now fallen into the demonic path and can fight against Gu Ying and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva one against two. It's hard to say that he doesn't have a backup plan."

Yi Mu and Zhou Guanwu suddenly understood, exchanged a glance, and asked no further questions.

What the earth-walking monk said makes some sense.

Among the assembled Bodhisattvas and Arhats from Mount Ling who had come, the three of them were among the weakest in terms of cultivation strength, making them unsuitable for charging into battle.

But is this really the case?
Those who practice Buddhism diligently cultivate Buddhist teachings and are more sensitive to the power of merit, vows, and karma.

He was at least much more perceptive than Yi Mu, Zhou Guanwu, and Chen Yuan, who were not originally Buddhist disciples.

He had noticed this earlier when he scanned his surroundings—the karmic obstacles within this Vajra Temple were the most severe.

Especially inside that main hall, it was filled with karmic fire and shrouded in the divine will of Asura.

In this situation, if Chen Yuan were to be careless, he might very well fall into the Asura realm.

Obviously, the Earth-Walking Monk wouldn't say these things.

"Amitabha, Chen Yuan, it's all your fault for blocking my path."

In his view, it was extremely unfair for Chen Yuan to obtain the sixth-rank lotus platform.

If Chen Yuan hadn't been incredibly lucky to be accepted as a disciple by Mani Kasyapa, he wouldn't have been the one to obtain the sixth-grade lotus platform based on seniority.

In fact, there are quite a few people within Mount Ling who have this idea, but no one dares to put it into action because of the presence of the Bodhisattva Mani Kasyapa.

the other side.

Chen Yuan was unaware of the Earth Monk's scheme.

However, he had long been wary of Tu Xingseng, Zhou Guanwu, and Yi Mu, and had always been careful around them.

But this time it's different.

When Chen Yuan slipped into the main hall of the Vajra Temple, he made sure the three people behind him hadn't followed. Then, following the direction guided by his mind, he went straight into the depths.

Passing through pavilions and corridors, and past ferocious Buddha statues, we arrived at the dense forest deep in the back mountains of Vajra Temple.

"here?"

Chen Yuan glanced around and his gaze fell on a very inconspicuous tree not far away.

The divine intent of the human path suddenly emerged from his body, as if urging him, and transformed into an arrow pointing straight at the small tree.

Chen Yuan glanced at it sideways, but remained unmoved.

The next moment, he gripped the heavy sword at his waist with one hand and casually slashed it.

Then, as the blade's energy pierced through the small tree, it suddenly dissipated.

It was as if they were blocked by an invisible and intangible barrier.

"Array?"

Chen Yuan looked around and then lightly stomped his foot, causing the sixth-grade lotus platform beneath him to unleash its power of merit and vows.

"break!"

A golden light flashed, and several talismans appeared in the dense forest, swirling around the branches of the trees.

The very center of the formation was the place that Chen Yuanren had guided with his divine will.

"There……"

Chen Yuan glanced at it, then manipulated the sixth-grade lotus platform to move forward.

For no apparent reason—even though the formation was still there, he knew that with the power of the lotus platform, he could pass through it.

Just as he had sensed, he passed through the array barrier without any hindrance and disappeared into the array.

"what?"

Zhou Guanwu, Yimu, and Tu Xingseng, who were fighting with the Asuras inside the Vajra Temple, all paused when they realized that Chen Yuan's aura had disappeared.

They turned around and looked around the Vajra Temple with a hint of doubt. They also scanned it with their mental senses, but still found nothing.

Yi Mu frowned and asked, "Chen Yuan's aura has disappeared?"

Zhou Guanwu pondered for a moment, then turned to look at the bald man beside him and asked, "Earth-walking monk, did you do this?"

"What did this humble monk make?"

The earth-walking monk didn't admit it, but a smile appeared on his face as he said gloatingly:

“The Vajra Temple is the lair of the monk Fayun. The karmic force contained within is very strong, and it is not a place that ordinary people can trespass.”

"You knew all along that there was danger inside?"

“Yi Mu had warned him before, but he insisted on going alone. He deserved to die.”

Seeing this, Yi Mu also frowned, "Earth Monk, if an Arhat dies at this time, Mani Kasyapa will probably be angry."

The earth-walking monk glanced at him sideways and snorted, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking."

"Haven't you been coveting Chen Yuan's lotus throne for a long time?"

"We may covet it, but not now."

With that, Yi Mu slew a Shura and headed straight for the depths of the Vajra Temple, leaving behind a single sentence:
"Mount Ling has just appeared in the world, and it is not advisable for any casualties to occur, otherwise neither of us can escape responsibility."

Just as the monk Tu Xing was about to speak to stop him, Zhou Guanwu, who was standing to the side, said, "Let him be."

He turned around, used his spear to knock away one of the Asuras, and continued, "Yi Mu has been by the side of the Great Master Mani Kasyapa for many years, and he knows his thoughts best."

The earth-walking monk thought for a moment, then gave up, only chuckling softly, "If he dies here, then he can only blame his own bad luck."

"Brother Zhou, don't you also want him to die?"

While fighting the Asura, Zhou Guanwu coldly transmitted his voice:
Even if he dies, that lotus throne will not be for you or me.

"There's always a chance, isn't there?"

"This humble monk believes that Mount Ling is fair, and that Mani Kasyapa Bodhisattva is fair."

"But don't forget, there are two ancient Buddhas on Mount Ling, and the Floating and Sinking Buddha is also there!"

The earth-walking monk paused slightly, turned his head to look at him, and asked with a slightly changed expression, "You mean..."

"Does the Ancient Buddha of Floating and Sinking want to interfere with the allocation of lotus thrones on Mount Ling?"

"Two tigers cannot share one mountain. This profound saying from the Tianyuan Continent also applies to Taizhou Mountain!"

Zhou Guanwu then ignored the Earth-Walking Monk and focused on clearing out the surrounding Asuras. Even without the lotus platform by his side, he had still made significant progress during his exploration of the Spirit Mountain Secret Realm.

In particular, the blessing of his merits and vows enabled him to reach the fifth level of supernatural powers in both Buddhism and Taoism.

His strength is much greater than it was when he was on Tianyuan Continent.

Zhou Guanwu knew in his heart that his current strength was not only inferior to Chen Yi's, but even surpassed by Chen Yuan.

His desire to seek revenge against Chen Yi is nothing short of delusional.

"But just wait, I'll make you regret this sooner or later!"

Just as Zhou Guanwu, Tu Xingseng, and Yi Mu separated, Chen Yuan had already stepped out of the great formation.

It looked the same as before, but in his mind there was already an ancient-looking gold-leaf scripture.

The words "The Sutra of the Six Paths of Reincarnation" were clearly written on it!
Chen Yuan quickly compared the contents of the Human Path cultivation method with the texts and confirmed that they were indeed exactly the same as the texts he had obtained from Mani Kasyapa.

Besides the Human Path, the other five paths of cultivation are also clearly visible.

But because of this, Chen Yuan couldn't help but feel puzzled.

Why is the Six Paths of Reincarnation Sutra here?

"Did the great master Mani Kasyapa also obtain his cultivation methods from here?"

He remembered Fuchen telling him that the Six Paths of Reincarnation Sutra was about the "Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss" slaughtering and plundering the Vajra Realm.

Does this mean that Vajra Temple still has a copy?
Chen Yuan had no idea, but unexpectedly obtaining the "Six Paths of Reincarnation Sutra" was a good thing for him.

In this way, he would not need to search for Manikasyapa... but he still would have to.

At least until he and Lingshan have a falling out, it is still necessary to find Manikaye.

Chen Yuan still remembered what Fu Chen had said earlier—

The difficulty of cultivating the Three Divine Paths and the Three Evil Paths varies, and the order in which they are cultivated must be carefully considered.

The human path he learned was contrary to his legacy of the Absolute Blade, so choosing the Three Evil Paths was the most suitable option.

The outcome was exactly as predicted.

If he hadn't gained something in the Spirit Mountain Secret Realm some time ago, he probably wouldn't have successfully entered the Human Path yet.

"It's a good thing to have obtained this scripture. In this way, I can compare it with the practice that Mani Kasyapa taught me."

Defenses can not do without.

Especially now, in the Spirit Mountain, especially after Fu Chen reminded him.

Chen Yuan kept this in mind.

Just then, Yimu flashed to his side, glanced at him, and then looked around.

"Is everything alright, Your Holiness the Arhat Buddha?"

Chen Yuan shook his head slightly, "There's a large formation. Come and take a look."

He neither said he had gained anything nor that he had gained nothing.

Based on his understanding of Yi Mu and the others, he knew that whether he spoke or not, it would arouse their suspicion, so he simply let it be.

After saying this briefly, Chen Yuan walked outside.

Yi Mu frowned and blocked his way.

Chen Yuan gripped the hilt of the knife with one hand and glanced at him sideways: "What?"

Yi Mu glanced at the sixth-grade lotus platform beneath his feet, then bowed and said:
“Lord Arhat Buddha, if you have any instructions in the future, please speak frankly, and I will do my best.”

Chen Yuan paused, then manipulated the sixth-grade lotus platform to vanish in a flash: "That's for the best."

Yi Mu watched him leave, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, before following him out of the dense forest.

What neither of them noticed was that the great formation that had previously enveloped the dense forest had quietly dissipated.

It was as if it had never been set up.

Chen Yuan had just left the Vajra Temple when he heard a scream from the sky in the distance:
"Ksitigarbha, Ancient Eagle, you—wait!"

The three-headed, six-armed monk Fayun had two heads and three arms torn off, and was covered in blood as he headed towards the exit of the realm.

The Ancient Eagle Bodhisattva and the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva pursued relentlessly, not forgetting to give instructions:

"You will all remain here and wipe out all the Asuras!"

Chen Yuan frowned slightly. He never expected that Gu Ying and Dizang would have seriously injured Monk Fayun in such a short time.

You must know that he was a powerful expert at the tenth level of the Divine Realm.

From this, he understood just how powerful a Bodhisattva with a nine-tiered lotus platform was.

After watching for a moment, Chen Yuan waved to Zhou Guanwu, Tu Xingseng, and Yi Mu.

After they all arrived at the lotus platform, they charged towards the Asura in the distance.

Yi Mu said, seemingly unintentionally, "The power of Ancient Eagle Bodhisattva and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is truly terrifying."

"Is this the blessing of the lotus platform?"

Zhou Guanwu understood his unspoken message and snorted, "The blessing of the lotus platform is one aspect, but more importantly, one must possess the strength to match it."

"Otherwise, even if we were given the lotus platform, it would still not be able to unleash its full power."

"That's true..."

……

Just as the two Bodhisattvas of Mount Ling were slaughtering a group of Asuras in the Vajra Realm, Sword Master Haoran also arrived in the Weak Water Realm with Lei Jingming.

At this time, there were many more people in the Weak Water Realm than before.

Most of them came to visit Daoist Zhao Muzi after seeing the appearance of Mount Ling.

But the answer was the same as before—there were no plans to take action against Lingshan for the time being.

Furthermore, Zhao Muzi went even further this time, saying bluntly: "I believe you all have seen the previous appearance of this humble Taoist priest and Yin Yin to offer our congratulations."

"Therefore, the decision not to antagonize Mount Ling for the time being is not made by me alone, but is the consensus of all of us."

"As for the reason—it's very simple. The appearance of Mount Ling is a good thing for many realms of Mount Taizhou, regardless of who controls it."

Such an answer naturally left the visitors dissatisfied.

However, their strength was far inferior to that of Mount Ling, and they had no chance of resisting Mount Ling on their own.

Having heard the gist of the story, Sword Master Haoran led Lei Jingming forward and snorted:
"Didn't the great master Mani Kassapa just say that past grievances are wiped clean?"

"If he can do it, what are you worried about?"

“If he cannot do it, you don’t need to say anything. Daoist Master Xun Wangtian will uphold justice for us.”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, then they understood and smiled again, saying:
"Sword Master Haoran sees things clearly; I'm the one who's been waiting to see this."

“You are not attached to appearances, but you are afraid.”

Haoran Sword Master snorted, causing the old ancestor-level powerhouses from various realms to smirk.

"Alright, go back to where you came from. Don't get in our way as we welcome our disciples and grand-disciples."

Seeing this, everyone bowed to Daoist Zhao Muzi and the others before dispersing.

After they had all left, Sword Master Haoran stepped forward, bowing as he transmitted his voice:

"I hope Master Zhao will forgive my sudden visit."

Zhao Muzi was well aware of his purpose and nodded slightly, saying, "In a few more days, Chen Yi and the others will come out. At that time, you can talk to him directly."

The Sword Master Haoran smiled and said, "Thank you, Daoist Master..."
