System crash? I prove it with my control panel!

"Well then, young man, I have a question. What does this have to do with you giving me a sermon?"

Chen Wen was very puzzled.

Since the arrow is already on the bowstring.

But I have reasons that I can't refuse.

Then why is He still nagging me so much?

Could it be that he hasn't spoken for decades and is feeling stifled?

The serene ancient Buddha still smiled, but his tone became solemn:

"Because you were born a demon!"

"Huh? No, are you complimenting me?"

Chen Wen paused for a moment, then scratched his head, looking somewhat embarrassed.

If a lowly ant said those words, Chen Wen would think he was just being coquettish and would simply dismiss him.

If a fellow practitioner were to say these words, Chen Wen would think that the person had a grudge against him, but he would be helpless and could only vent his anger through words.

But if the ancient Buddha, the future ancient Buddha, or the present Bodhisattva were to say these words, then it would be different.

As everyone knows, Chen Wen comes from the Qingming Sect, and only those with sufficient demonic nature can survive in the Qingming Sect.

Therefore, this statement was tantamount to praising him, or even acknowledging that he was living a very comfortable life.

However, the Pure Ancient Buddha shook his head without hesitation.

"This old monk believes that you have misunderstood the importance of living beings and lack compassion."

Chen Wen narrowed his eyes, somewhat puzzled:

"What would I do with that thing? Can I exchange it for spiritual materials?"

"Besides, if you say I didn't, then I don't; I could also say I did!"

The Pure Ancient Buddha said, "If one understands the importance of all living beings, one will not easily utter words that would lead to the destruction of an entire generation of living beings."

Chen Wen didn't even lift his eyelids.

The Pure Ancient Buddha then said:

"Understanding the weight of all living beings will help you advance further on your path and reduce the barrier to becoming a True Lord by ten percent."

"Please, ancient Buddhist masters, teach me!"

Chen Wen immediately knelt down.

The ancient Buddha smiled and said, "Amitabha Buddha~ It's too late now, but this old monk can give you something. If fate allows, we will meet again in the future."

After speaking, he raised his hand and conjured a small bead.

After taking it, Chen Wen looked at it from left to right and thought it was just an ordinary item.

"Buddha, this thing of yours looks..."

When he looked up again, the ancient Buddha had vanished.

Seeing this, Chen Wen shook his head and casually put the bead away.

He knew that this bead was a method left behind by the ancient Buddha, which could also be called a backup plan.

But what can he do?

The ancient Buddha knew that he knew, but he still openly handed it over to him.

As for his claim about the importance of living beings, he simply did not believe it.

It's just an excuse to change my attitude.

There may be other deeper meanings, but Chen Wen has only seen this one so far.

However, Chen Wen took note of what he said later about comprehending the Seed of Life, which could reduce the barrier to breaking through to the True Monarch level.

However, it's the other way around.

Understanding the weight of all living beings can reduce the obstacles to overcoming them; perhaps it could be changed to understanding the essence of all living beings can reduce the obstacles to overcoming them.

The weight of life is merely a matter of direction.

Conversely, what about the lightness of being?

Perhaps.

Is living being good? Is living being evil? Is living being wise? Is living being foolish?

These are all fine.

For him, since we are not in the same situation, we can simply ignore him.

What is this? Equality of all living beings?

He silently made his plans.

These are all he can do now.

He is already trapped within the evil spirits, and the only way to escape is for the Pure Buddha to intervene and resolve this situation.

But he had already prepared for the worst—to give up this body and all that he had gained.

Return to the Shi family, and then bring Chang Fan back to start over.

But then again, can the Shi family hold on?

Since obtaining a spot in the small world and being forced to retaliate against the Qingming Sect, the events that have occurred have been beyond his control.

Moreover, it is clear that the Ancient Buddha has taken great care of him, explaining the matter to him in great detail.

However, it was ultimately too complex, and there were many unknown factors, which prevented him from seeing the whole picture.

But one thing he was certain of.

That is, He will definitely not succeed!

There's already a similar example, only the schemes were different, but the outcome should be the same...

"Huh? When did we use a similar example?"

Chen Wen frowned.

Then proceed with the discussion, without dwelling on it anymore.

In Chen Wen's own understanding, the plan of the Pure Ancient Buddha was indeed very good;

He bred evil spirits at the cost of Yuan Shi and all living beings in heaven and earth, and even gave up the position of Buddha recognized by the will of heaven and chose death, thus breaking away from the control of the will of heaven.

He then allowed the evil spirits to completely spiral out of control, taking over heaven and earth and forcing them to acknowledge the existence of the world. Ultimately, he opened up a unique path of cultivation, returned to the position of Buddha, and personally eradicated the evil spirits.

In this way, Yuan Shi not only fulfilled his path of cultivation, but also prevented himself from being controlled by the will of Heaven, and added a limit for the world—merit!

It even incidentally weakened the strength and future potential of the three sects.

besides......

In short, this has already killed many birds with one stone.

The crucial question is—did the Supreme Lord agree?

Moreover, it's not just a matter of needing one Supreme Lord to agree; it requires three, or at least two.

Only in this way can the plan proceed smoothly.

It's not impossible to have only one Supreme Lord, but there will definitely be more variables and the success rate will be greatly reduced, at most only 10%.

But even a 10% chance would be good; if Chen Wen were to choose, it would be a gamble.

But the Pure Buddha chose the most extreme method.

Gamble with your life!

He gambled his life by giving up his Buddhist status and choosing death; he succeeded!

Gambling on fate and the fact that the three sages were unable to leave their posts, it seemed to have been successful on the surface.

Even variables have been taken into account.

It specifically chose itself, someone whose identity could not be revealed, as its variable.

But that's not all. Before the catastrophe becomes too terrifying, in order to prevent himself from perishing with it, he reveals his identity to attract the Supreme Being.

He even had a long talk with himself, and even talked about a method that could reduce the difficulty of breaking through to the True Monarch realm—the weight of life.

After going through all that trouble, this is probably the final goal.

But the question is, did the Supreme Being really so preoccupied with fighting against the will of Heaven that he didn't notice the situation here?

Chen Wen thought about his sudden desire to destroy the Qingming Sect and how he had used up all the resources he had originally intended to use to ambush Lianxin Zhenjun.

Why does it feel like... something I wouldn't normally do?

......

"Sizzle—"

Just then, a piercing sound, like fingernails scratching a blackboard, resounded throughout the universe, drowning out the cries of the living beings.

This also drew the attention of the True Lords.

Suddenly, a crack appeared in the sky.

However, upon closer inspection, it was discovered that it was not actually a crack.

It was at the border between the Yuanshi and Xuanmen sects, which was where Chen Wen was located.

Suddenly, a beam of Buddhist light appeared.

The Buddha's light was as clear as crystal, sparkling and pure, making it difficult to see clearly.

The Buddha's light shone brightly, melting away ice and snow wherever it passed. In an instant, a pure land was created where evil spirits had invaded, and from a distance, it looked as if the sky had been split in two.

"How did that kid get involved with the Buddhist realm again?"

Lord Hexu frowned deeply.

If his previous state of mind in bringing the Bodhisattva out surprised him...

So now, he has begun to be on guard.

So good at causing trouble, so capable of stirring up trouble... Doesn't this remind you of someone?

Moreover... these two have some connection...

While he was pondering.

The ever-expanding and assimilating realm of evil, including the evil itself that was constantly eroding the world at the forefront and the Vajra of Hidden Heart, suddenly came to a halt.

Then, countless evil spirits and monsters from the evil realm surged back in an even more frenzied manner.

There is only one goal—Chang Fan!

However, the evil spirits themselves and the Vajra of Hidden Heart expanded outwards in an even more frenzied manner, and judging from the direction they were heading, their goal was—Red Release!

The Golden-Cut Bodhisattva's face twisted, once again revealing the "Myriad Essences of Gilded Gold, Solemn and Killing Bodhisattva Body".

With the blessing of the Buddha, his supernatural powers and golden body were greatly amplified.

However, after its six-armed magical artifact collided with evil spirits, it was instantly infused with a seemingly evil but actually extremely pure power, and instantly became ownerless.

The Golden Slash Bodhisattva's mind was shaken, and he immediately suffered a serious injury. However, what was more serious than the injury was that he realized that this outbreak of evil spirits seemed to be... not a coincidence!

Although the six magical treasures did not succeed in their attack, they did allow the attacker to see the true nature of the person who came.

It was indeed the appearance of the Immaculate Ancient Buddha.

Leaving aside its display of human-like consciousness and intelligence, and the fact that the connection between the Buddha and the Vajra of Hidden Heart following behind it can be blocked by it.

That was the power he had just witnessed; it was the Immaculate Buddha Light of the Immaculate Ancient Buddha.

A bad feeling welled up in his heart.

Could it be... that Yuan Shi did this on purpose?

He connected what had happened before.

Evil spirits suddenly erupted, then showed signs of exhaustion. The Immaculate Buddha appeared, purified the evil spirits, and passed away. Immaculate relics fell like rain, attracting various sects to vie for them.

And now, Buddha's light has appeared in the world again. Could it be... the Pure Ancient Buddha who has already been reincarnated has come?

He sensed a conspiracy.

In fact, it wasn't just him.

All the True Lords sensed something unusual.

He Xu Zhenjun immediately went to the outer heavens to avoid the danger.

However, due to differences in status and position, the degree to which they can perceive it also varies.

The Buddhist disciple's expression changed slightly.

"They wouldn't possibly want to..."

But at this moment.

A novice monk dressed in plain clothes slowly walked out from inside Chen Wen's body.

His face was fair and his eyes were clear. He clasped his hands together, with a string of Buddhist prayer beads in his palms. He walked barefoot on the ground, step by step, towards the Yuanshi Temple, without a speck of dust on his feet.

The moment he appeared, all the True Lords showed expressions of disbelief.

They recognized it as the Pure Ancient Buddha.

The aura, cause and effect, Daoist rhythm, will... everything matched.

To their astonishment, the serene ancient Buddha at this moment gave them the feeling of being an ordinary mortal.

However, the string of Buddhist beads in his palm emitted a pure and immaculate Buddhist light, protecting him from the erosion of evil spirits.

In an instant, the world changed color, and evil spirits surged forth like a tidal wave.

Thus, a scene similar to that of the Immaculate Ancient Buddha was formed, creating a huge "giant egg" shrouded in evil spirits.

However, this "giant egg" kept moving as the person at its core moved forward step by step.

At this moment, as this "giant egg" moves, evil spirits from the outside world continue to gather around it, making it grow larger and larger.

Even the evil spirits that had already penetrated deep into the Red Realm could not ignore its existence and gathered towards it.

Soon, evil spirits and the Vajra of the Hidden Heart also entered the "Giant Egg".

The next moment, the "giant egg" began to collapse rapidly.

In a short while, the evil spirits of the world faded away, leaving only a pure and eerie truth emanating from beneath the core Buddhist pagoda of Yuan Shi, radiating an intensity that seemed to engulf everything.

It is solidified like a physical substance, but even so, it is still a thousand feet in size.

The Azure Nether Sect Master narrowed his eyes slightly and said:

"The Pure and Ancient Buddha, what a skillful method!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the surface of the strange giant sphere rippled like water.

The next moment, the young monk in plain clothes slowly walked out, clasped his hands together, and smiled slightly:

"Amitabha Buddha, benefactor, this humble monk Jingqing greets you."

"Jingqing? Heh~ Old man, you want to transcend the Heavenly Dao first?"

As always, Sect Master Huo Rong spoke frankly and directly.

Jing Qing remained unmoved, smiled slightly, and said calmly:

"Amitabha Buddha~ This humble monk Jingqing, moved by the catastrophe sweeping across the world, and unable to bear the suffering of all living beings and the widespread cries of sorrow, has come here."

"I wish to use this body to absorb all calamities and save all living beings, helping people to escape the sea of ​​suffering and return to peace."

"Esteemed benefactors, this humble monk wishes to use this item to attain enlightenment. I humbly request your permission. Amitabha!"

He bowed slightly, then sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and entered a meditative state.

His words were so blatant that he wasn't even pretending anymore.

No, you could say that the moment he appeared, he stopped acting altogether.

Everyone can see it at a glance now.

Yuan Shi deliberately offered himself to evil spirits, including the Immaculate Buddha.

The purpose is to temporarily convert evil spirits and thus control their actions.

Now, the reincarnation of the Pure Ancient Buddha has appeared, but he has no spiritual cultivation.

But with the help of this evil spirit.

He intends to use evil spirits as the foundation for refining the false into the true, transforming this substance into his own golden elixir, and then, by leveraging the dual nature of evil spirits and the Heavenly Dao, to share the authority of the Heavenly Dao, thus leaping into the true position of the Supreme Being.

After the investigation was completed, everyone gasped in shock.

Even the three sect leaders were no exception.

That's incredibly bold!

It should be known that their reincarnation had long been targeted and searched for, but unfortunately they had never found it.

Now, however, it has emerged from a small purple mansion.

This means that he was just reincarnated, and only returned by means that had been placed in his Purple Mansion long ago.

In other words, he was really dead before.

Yet he was able to come back from the dead and return, and even managed to have all the people of Yuanshi, including the Immaculate Buddha, sacrifice themselves for his scheme.

His goal was to rise from an ordinary person to become the Supreme Being in one step!

This plan is too crazy, too horrifying, too unbelievable!

No one would believe it if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes.

The success rate is less than 10%!

This is under the condition that the timing, location, and people are all in place.

However, the initial plans of the Pure Ancient Buddha have now been completed.

Only one step remains.

Once again, he merged with evil spirits, yet a voice resonating with countless truths remained.

"Gentlemen,..."

......
