Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 464: A Light Ignites the Killing Intent

There is an ancient temple between Lingshan Temple, named Da Leiyin Temple. Its interior is different from the vast desert outside. Green pines, strange rocks and gurgling springs can be seen everywhere.

For thousands of years, it has been quiet and peaceful. Even the cries of monkeys and the chirping of birds seem gentle and melodious, which do not break the tranquility of this place. Instead, they add a sense of calmness and simplicity to the mountains.

On this day, a visitor came to Lingshan to pay homage, slightly disrupting the tranquility there.

In a large hall on the mountainside of the Great Leiyin Temple, the Buddha statue is solemn and sacred. In this Buddhist temple, stands a young monk in a black Taoist robe. He has an extraordinary demeanor and is quite conspicuous.

"Donor Chen, please wait a moment. Grandmaster Kongjie is still worshipping the Buddha. I have sent someone to report to him."

Near the young monk, a foundation-building monk in a yellow robe clasped his hands together and explained softly.

Chen Mu smiled slightly and nodded. Under the guidance of the monk, he sat aside and waited quietly.

Just when he went up the mountain, he took out the token given to him by Patriarch Tianxing and handed it to the monk in charge of reception for identification.

Without much trouble or incident, the monk in charge of reception recognized on the spot that the talisman belonged to the temple's Master Kongjie, so he politely led Chen Mu up the mountain to wait.

"Master Kongjie... is indeed at the Nascent Soul stage."

Chen Mu's heart moved slightly. Although he had expected this when he came here, that the old friend of Patriarch Tianxing was most likely also a Nascent Soul cultivator, but when it was confirmed that they would meet soon, he still couldn't avoid feeling a little nervous.

Being in another sect, meeting such a cultivator, and having your life and death controlled by others, it really doesn't feel good...

After waiting for about an hour, footsteps were finally heard outside the hall.

Chen Mu suddenly opened his eyes and stood up to greet him.

After a moment, a figure wearing a red and yellow cassock stepped in. He was tall and majestic, and his movements were casual and freehand. He did not look like an ascetic monk who was rigid in everything he did, but more like a monk who loved wine and meat and traveled around the world.

Chen Mu saluted calmly, but when his gaze passed through his eyes, his heart suddenly trembled and a little cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

What kind of eyes were those? They had none of the compassion of a Buddhist. Instead, they were like a sea of ​​blood and a devil's cave. Their ferocity exceeded that of anyone Chen Mu had ever seen!
Even he felt a chill in his heart when he saw it. If it were someone with a weak mind, they would probably lose their balance if they suddenly looked at each other...

"Uncle Master..." The yellow-robed monk seemed not to notice, as if the monk in front of him was no different from a Buddha statue, and he just put his hands together in greeting.

"Yeah." Kong Jie nodded slightly, his face serious: "Go out."

After the monks left the hall, he did not ask Chen Mu immediately, but walked over and sat down at the top.

Chen Mu calmed his mind and said loudly: "I am Chen Mu from Beiyuan, and I pay my respects to Master Kongjie..."

Kong Jie nodded, took out the golden token, and said, "A hundred years ago, I traveled through the Xuanling Realm and made friends with Taoist Tianxing when I passed by Beiyuan. He helped me a lot, so I left this token as a testimony..."

Now, a hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye. Why did Fellow Daoist Tianxing send you here?

Chen Mu's expression straightened, and he immediately told the reason for his visit: "To be honest with you, Master, I am trapped in the path of killing and cannot escape. I am constantly being corroded by the killing talisman.

Fortunately, thanks to the guidance of the ancestor, I now know what the master is capable of. Therefore, I have come here to pay my respects to you, hoping that you can teach me how to solve this problem."

"Seeking Dharma..." Kong Jie smiled slightly, without any surprise on his face, but he had noticed the aura of killing on Chen Mu since he came in.

Seeing his expression, Chen Mu's eyes flickered, and hope grew in his heart.

"The Way of Killing has nothing to do with the distinction between Taoism and Buddhism. How can you believe what Tian Xing said and conclude that this poor monk can help you?"

Chen Mu was stunned when he heard this. Seeing Kong Jie's serious expression, his eyes flickered slightly, and he could only bite the bullet and reply:

"Before, I still believed the words of the ancestors, but after meeting the master today, I have confirmed that this trip is the right choice. Only the master can help me in the catastrophe of killing!" "Oh?" Kong Jie said with a smile: "Why do you think so?"

Chen Mu complained in his heart, why do Buddhists love to preach and test people?

Regardless of realm, this is true for the Zen masters in ordinary cities and the Yuanying Patriarchs on Mount Lingshan...

I thought Kong Jie was free and easy and not old-fashioned, but I didn't expect him to be like this.

"Master, you possess a compassionate heart, but I sense a murderous intent hidden within you. If I am right, you are also... trapped in the path of killing, right?"

Chen Mu looked up and slowly spoke tentatively.

This is true. The first time he saw Kong Jie, he noticed the similarities between the two through the killing talisman. No wonder other monks didn't notice it. It was because Chen Mu and he were of the same kind!

"Hahaha..." Kong Jie laughed out loud when he heard this, nodded and said, "The fact that you can see this is enough to save you!"

After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and a beam of mysterious light flew out and went straight into Chen Mu's brow. Then he kept moving, and as he was sitting upright with his fingers pinched, the light in the sky suddenly dimmed until it was pitch black.

Chen Mu's consciousness gradually became blurred. Although his realm was not bad, he still couldn't react to the sudden attack of the Nascent Soul Patriarch.

In a daze, he felt as if he had fallen into an endless abyss. It seemed as if thousands of years had passed, and yet it seemed as if only a moment had passed. He felt as if his soul had landed on a solid ground.

"where is this?"

All he saw was darkness, and Chen Mu forgot where he was.

"despair!"

Suddenly there was a slight sound, and in the boundless darkness, a light as small as a bean lit up!

The lights were extremely dim, their light flickering, soft and dim, making people feel tired and sleepy when watching them.

Within the range of the lights, Chen Mu's figure gradually emerged.

However, Chen Mu was a little different at this moment. His originally elegant face was covered with dark lines, making him look like the devil's dark underworld, shocking and terrifying.

He was completely unaware of his own abnormality. In his daze, he only felt the warmth of the light, which made him want to get closer uncontrollably.

"Step, step..."

The light sound of footsteps echoed unprecedentedly in this dark world.

It was not until Chen Mu sat down near the lights that another change occurred.

Suddenly, a sound of "burning" was heard quietly, and along with the rising white mist, the dark lines on Chen Mu's face gradually dimmed!

"Hmm..." Chen Mu suddenly groaned in pain, and his mind immediately came back to normal.

"I'm in the Western Desert, at the Great Leiyin Temple..."

Looking at the bean-sized lights in front of him, he felt delighted. Before his consciousness sank, he clearly saw Master Kongjie taking action, which showed that this change was his method!
Thinking of this, he quickly mobilized his mind and went to the depths of his sea of ​​consciousness, only to see a raging fire that had ignited there at some point in time. The murderous intent transformed by the killing talisman was like cotton wool, and it was burned and defeated at the first sight!

No matter how the killing talisman catalyzes, the speed at which the killing intent is generated cannot match the burning process.

If it continues at this speed, within three months, the murderous intent within it will disappear completely, leaving only two killing talismans with pure Taoist rhyme!
