Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 224 A Great Achievement!

"It's over!"

At that moment, Venerable Vimalakirti's heart sank, and he felt a chill throughout his body, as if he had just been swept through an ice cave.

He did not know Hongju.

This is normal, since even within the Holy Sect, apart from the True Lord and a few people related to [Covering Lamp Fire], no one knows Hongju.

After all, the reason why Master Hongyun enlightened Hongju, a True Person who had reached the peak of Foundation Establishment, was to make him his trump card for his future re-ascension to the throne. Since he was a trump card, what kind of trump card would it be if he made it public? Naturally, he had to keep it hidden in the shadows so that it could be effective.

In addition, Qingcheng Feixue Zhenjun deliberately concealed it.

Therefore, no one anticipated his arrival.

At this critical moment when the pursuit of gold is in full swing, the entire Jiangbei region is under the watchful eyes of various True Lords, with all late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators and even Great True Persons at the Perfection stage being scrutinized.

When any individual takes action, there will be corresponding interventions from all sides.

Only Hongju remained all alone.

Therefore, his appearance was an extremely terrifying thing for Venerable Vimalakirti, and those eyes that shone like lamplight penetrated his mind and soul.

Who exactly is this person?

'Which Great Immortal in the world, who has reached the Foundation Establishment stage and possesses supernatural powers, isn't renowned and well-known in the hearts of all the True Lords?'

'Why did this person suddenly appear out of nowhere?!'

The Venerable Vimalakirti's mind was racing, but his eyes reflected a raging sea of ​​fire, and he then realized that his eyes had been set ablaze.

Flames erupted from his body without warning, burning through his internal organs and spewing out from his five senses and seven orifices, setting his monk's robe ablaze. Hongju hadn't even used any hand seals or spells from beginning to end; he had simply looked at him once, and yet he had transformed him into a human-shaped torch!

"what!!!"

The Venerable Vimalakirti, who had transformed into a fire-man, suddenly let out a great roar, his Buddhist voice like thunder, his mouth wide open, and he unleashed an extremely profound Taoist technique.

"【Mind Light Escape Technique】!"

Where the heart leads, the thought will lead you!

He has studied this Mind Light Escape Technique for hundreds of years. Among the Pure Land Venerables, he is the most proficient in this technique and has the fastest escape speed.

That's why the Pure Land sent him to Jiangbei.

With this [Mind Light Escape Technique], even when facing a Grand Master at the Foundation Establishment stage, he has a 50% chance of escaping and won't necessarily die!

The next second, Venerable Vimalakirti rose into the air.

This sudden change gave him a glimmer of hope, but as soon as that hope arose, his mind seemed to be clouded with dust.

A barrage of distracting thoughts erupted.

'This man has bullied me so much, should I teach him a lesson before I leave?'

'No rush, let's play around with him a bit more!'

'I, Vimalakirti, have never lost to anyone in my life! Even if my cultivation is slightly weaker and my supernatural powers are somewhat inferior, what do I fear in death? It's nothing more than a desperate battle.'

When Venerable Vimalakirti finally broke free from these distracting thoughts, he found that Hongju's large hand had already gently landed on his head.

Click!

One palm strike, and the skull shatters!
At this moment, Venerable Vimalakirti's eyes widened. His proud, indestructible golden body was utterly powerless to resist, shattering like glass at the slightest touch.

From the shattered flesh and blood, the soul emerged.

Only then did a beam of white light emerge from the darkness, enveloping the soul of Vimalakirti and preventing him from falling into the cycle of reincarnation.

Under the blessing of this white light, Venerable Vimalakirti finally understood why he had been so muddled and powerless against Hongju. He then saw that a book had appeared above his head, slowly turning its pages, with a short line of writing on it.

Vimalakirti died by my hand.

"So that's how it is!" Venerable Vimalakirti was so angry that his soul trembled. "A Grand Master who has reached the Foundation Establishment stage even used the treasure of his attainment to plot against me. Such despicable behavior!"

He's at the peak of Foundation Establishment! He could crush him in a head-on fight!
In the end, they even used the treasure of the fruit position to plot against him, making him send his divine sense to others like a fool. It was simply toying with him and even deliberately humiliating him!

However, Hongju ignored Vimalakirti's anger. "The Light of Guidance to the Pure Land"

He withdrew his hand, took a step back, and looked up at the sky. He saw that the layers of clouds in the sky were faintly revealing the head of a Buddha.

Boom! A flash of lightning streaked through the clouds and exploded in the Buddha's eyes.

"Please forgive me, Bodhisattva." Hongju smiled bitterly upon seeing this: "I was just trying to survive. Please, Bodhisattva, be magnanimous and don't hold it against me."

Before he could finish speaking, a cold snort suddenly rang out.

"Bald monk, get back here!"

In an instant, summer snow fell, and a gust of wind dispersed the clouds above the Buddha's head, also keeping the angry gaze from the Pure Land outside the Jiangbei region.

The next second, many images disappeared, and Vimalakirti's soul returned to the Pure Land under the guiding light of the Pure Land. This is also the benefit of becoming a Great Perfectionist in the Pure Land. There is no need to reincarnate. Even if you die, you will only be reborn in the Pure Land and will not have to worry about suffering the pain of reincarnation.

Seeing this, Hongju breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately afterwards, he glanced in the direction of Zhanlong Pass, then turned back to look in the direction of the Holy Sect. Soon, a voice drifted over:

“The Pure Land made a move once, so you should make a move too.”

After the words were spoken, there was no response from any party, which seemed to be an acceptance of the decision. Seeing this, Hongju was no longer afraid and immediately strode towards the Dragon-Slaying Pass.

In the blink of an eye, he found himself in a secret room.

Inside the secret chamber, Lü Yang was still activating the formation to collect all of Vimalakirti's divine thoughts, and he looked up almost immediately.

"Greetings, senior."

Lu Yang reacted quickly, bowing almost immediately and saying, "I wonder if the Buddhist monk has been dealt with? Is there anything I can do to help?"

"Quick reaction."

Looking at Lü Yang, Hongju's expression was somewhat complicated. After all, not long ago he had tried every means to take this man's life, but now he had to save him instead.

"The monk who made the move was named Vimalakirti."

Hongju cut to the chase, saying directly, "I deceived his mind and had him send you several strands of his divine sense. Can we now put aside our previous grievances?"

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang was momentarily stunned.

However, he quickly realized that the Holy Sect Grand Master, with whom he had a grudge, was the one who had caused him to encounter the murderous intent of heaven and earth.
Thinking of this, Lü Yang quickly bowed and said, "Senior, you flatter me."

"It was just a trivial matter in the past, and I have never dared to hold a grudge. So how can I say that it's all forgotten? Please don't take it to heart, senior."

"."

Hongju sighed, "We are all Holy Sect True Persons, do you take me for a fool?"

"Not daring to hold a grudge" means actually holding a grudge; talking about wiping it off means being unwilling to let it go! This person is so petty!

"With the True Lord's permission, I can lend you a hand."

Hongju stretched out his hand, a wisp of golden smoke floating in his palm: "This is a portion of Vimalakirti's merits and destiny, which I have extracted."

Then he took out a book.

"This item is called the [Book of Shared Fate and Changing Fortune]. It requires consuming merit and good fortune to leave a mark on it, and what is written on it will be driven by heaven and earth."

After saying that, he handed both to Lü Yang.

"I'll lend it to you now. You write this, but it's just one sentence: From now on, our karmic ties are severed. We might still be colleagues in the future, so please don't pursue this further."

Although he was far superior to Lü Yang in terms of cultivation, Lü Yang had a powerful backer. If Chong Guang successfully ascended to the throne in the future, he would have to rely on Chong Guang for survival. In this situation, what if he made an enemy of Lü Yang, a favorite of Chong Guang, and the other party made things difficult for him?
The only option is to pay up to avoid further trouble.

On the other side, Lü Yang stared intently at the [Book of Shared Fate and Fortune], his eyes slightly brightening. Was this the extraordinary treasure that could trigger the killing intent of heaven and earth?

'A flawless plan, truly a flawless plan!'

'I wonder if it's Chongguang's backup plan or Feixue Zhenjun's arrangement... With it, assassinating the Prince of Qing will no longer be difficult!'
