Terrifying Heavens: I Slay Demons by Painting Faces

After an unknown amount of time, Chen Hengyi even fell into a brief coma. The excruciating pain suddenly subsided, replaced by a strange warmth.

Chen Hengyi slowly opened his eyes, only to find that the world before him had completely changed!

In the originally dim room, every speck of dust emitted a faint glow. The wood grain on the bed was so clear that one could count the annual rings, and the smooth white wall with putty applied appeared pitted and uneven in his eyes.

What shocked him even more was that he could see the subtle spiritual energy floating in the air...

Chen Hengyi tried to meditate and absorb the spiritual energy. Sure enough, the floating spiritual energy was immediately absorbed into his body and transformed into resources for the Fire Play.

Chen Hengyi sprang out of bed in a flash and ran to the window.

His pupils contracted, and his gaze quickly locked onto a street lamp a hundred meters away.

A small swarm of mosquitoes flew around under the light, heading towards the lampshade.

Chen Hengyi stared at that spot, as if the pause button had been pressed.

But soon, he suddenly spoke up: "86 mosquitoes and 5 moths."

Chen Hengyi blinked and looked away.

An indescribable joy welled up in his heart, and the corners of his mouth turned up in a smile.

"What a wonderful display of the Six Roots! What a delightful sight!"

He naturally knew what this "Six Roots - Seeing Joy" was.

The six senses are a Buddhist concept, referring to the innate qualities a person possesses from birth.

The phrase "eye-opening joy" originates from the classic novel *Journey to the West*.

Chapter 14, "The Monkey King Returns to Righteousness, and the Six Bandits Vanish," tells the story of one of the six bandits killed by Sun Wukong shortly after he left the Five Elements Mountain.

The original text reads: "The traveler said, 'I am also a great king by ancestral lineage, and a mountain lord for many years, but I have never heard of any of your great names.' The man said, 'You do not know, let me tell you: one is called Eyes See Joy, one is called Ears Hear Anger, one is called Nose Smell Love, one is called Tongue Taste Thought, one is called Mind Desire, and one is called Body Is Sorrow.'"

The Buddhist Heart Sutra also states that there are no eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, or mind.

Taoism has an even closer connection to this, with the concept of the Six Thieves, each of which corresponds to one of the Six Thieves mentioned in Journey to the West.

Most importantly, the core text of the Neidan School, the "Zhong Lü Chuan Dao Ji," explicitly lists the "Six Thieves" as one of the "Three Obstacles to Cultivating Immortality," proposing that "only by subduing the Six Thieves can one enter the Dao."

The Six Thieves were obstacles to cultivation, but now the Eye Thief has been defeated!

"If I gather all six senses and overcome the six thieves... does that mean I can enter the path of enlightenment!?"

This visual aid to combat is undoubtedly significant; seeing more allows for a better grasp of opportunities.

After the initial excitement, Chen Hengyi calmed down again, and he was no longer sleepy at all.

"Now all that's left is the matter of the Demon God and the Demon Child..."

After completing this task, Chen Hengyi can return to the real world.

Professor Lin's project has only just started; it will take time.

"Time... let's wait a bit longer then."

Chen Hengyi decided not to sleep anymore and instead practiced his martial arts.

.......

The sky was turning a pale white, the morning dew had not yet dissipated, and the air was still damp with the scent of morning dew.

Chen Hengyi moved with the speed of a rabbit. With a somersault, he spun in mid-air, landed, and spun swiftly, his clothes billowing in the wind and scattering the morning dew, the trails of the water droplets stretching out like silk threads in his eyes.

With a few deft movements, the fire quietly began to burn.

With a sudden movement, he thrust out a golden spear behind him, then flicked his wrist to strike, creating afterimages and whistling through the air.

At that moment, the gate of Fude Palace behind them opened, and Master Along walked out. After seeing Chen Hengyi practicing his skills, he was first puzzled, and then his eyes widened.

Before long, Chen Hengyi's figure came to a stop, white mist emanating from his body, and his breath was as swift as an arrow.

He turned to look at the gate and smiled, "Good morning, Master Along."

"You...you're practicing martial arts? But it looks more like opera to me?" Master A-Long voiced his doubts.

"I'm just an opera singer, aren't I? Have you forgotten?"

Master A-Long was speechless. Chen Hengyi had indeed said something, but when he recalled what the other party had done in the past few days, it didn't seem like a theatrical performance at all.

"What an amazing person," Master A-Long thought to himself, then waved his hand: "Have breakfast after you finish practicing. I'll have A-Kai go buy it."

Fude Palace itself doesn't serve breakfast, because there's a breakfast shop nearby that you can just pay a little money for; there's no need to get up too early and go through all that trouble.

As soon as Ah Long finished speaking, Lin Junkai appeared from behind him and set off to buy breakfast.

Chen Hengyi went back to take a shower, and Lin Junkai greeted him with a smile.

Just as the two passed each other, Chen Hengyi asked, "Did you go to the hospital yesterday?"

"Uh-huh."

"And the result?"

"Auntie has agreed to let us be together." This should have been a good thing, but Lin Junkai's smile vanished at that moment.

"Why are you unhappy?"

Lin Junkai shook his head: "The Demon God..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Hengyi immediately understood.

"Are you worried about dying?"

Lin Junkai didn't say anything, but the other person's eyes gave the answer.

"Don't worry, with me here, your Lin family will definitely have an heir. Otherwise, who else would Tiger Master turn to?"

Chen Hengyi patted the other person on the shoulder: "Go ahead, I want to eat a portion for four."

After breakfast, Master Along started talking to Chen Hengyi right there at the table.

"Do you have any ideas on how to deal with the Demon God?"

Two days ago, Chen Hengyi mentioned that he wanted to deal with the evil demon god, and Master Along was actually making preparations as well.

When Chen Hengyi saw that the other party had asked a question, he revealed his entire plan.

"We can't let the Demon Child get too powerful, otherwise the Evil Demon God won't be difficult to deal with. So I spent some money to get some people to clean up the social atmosphere."

Chen Hengyi turned on the television.

On the television screen, Professor Lin was participating in a symposium.

The other person was speaking eloquently, describing the harms of abortion and abandoned babies, as well as the foundation they had established.

"This is?"

Chen Hengyi continued to change the channel, this time to someone he didn't recognize, who also appeared to be an intellectual, or perhaps even a politician.

The other party is doing the same thing as Professor Lin.

Chen Hengyi switched to several different TV stations, and the result was the same for all of them.

Master Alon frowned deeply: "How much will this cost?"

Chen Hengyi smiled slightly: "It's just a small amount of money. The main thing is that everyone wants to make society a better place."

Master Along picked up the remote and continued watching, but suddenly he was startled: "Wasn't Wang Chongguang suppressed for being pro-mainland? How come he's out and even opposing abandoned babies?"

On that television, Wang Chongguang was campaigning for votes, because the five-yearly election was coming soon.

He looked at Chen Hengyi's face, still wearing a smile.

How much money would this small amount of money cost?

At this moment, Alonshi's worldview seemed to be reshaped.

Chen Hengyi said calmly, "It's all thanks to everyone's kindness..."

But Chen Hengyi was also curious as to why these politicians were giving their own accounts.

He only gave ten million?

Is the funding for this event really sufficient?
