Chapter 239: The eagle falls, and the lamp appears
"Evil beast, you have done so many evil things, today I will help you to be liberated." Fahai said with a serious expression.
Then he recited the mantra of rebirth, raised the golden bowl in his hand high, and a purple light shone from it, directly covering the golden-winged Dapeng Eagle.
"Ah... Jin Chanzi, spare my life, Jin Chanzi you can't kill me." Dapeng curled up on the ground in pain, begging constantly.
"When those people begged for mercy, did you spare them?" Wukong said angrily.
"I am unwilling, I am unwilling, Tathagata, Randeng, please save me, you made me do it." Dapeng roared hysterically.
Hearing this, Fahai's eyes became more angry, as if they were instigating it.
Tianpeng and the others also looked at each other, they never expected that the mastermind behind the scenes was Lingshan.
"Humph..."
Fahai snorted angrily, and the purple light of the golden bowl in his hand became stronger and stronger. Dapeng gradually lost his breath, and his body slowly turned back to the original form of a eagle, and was taken into the golden bowl with purple light.
"Amitabha." Fahai chanted.
"Master, thanks to you today, otherwise the three of us would not be able to do anything to this guy." Wukong said hurriedly.
"Yes, this birdman just runs fast and almost escaped."
"Master, how come you are here?"
The three asked at the same time.
Fahai turned around and smiled slightly.
"Fate, I have been walking westward, and I feel that something is guiding me. I passed by here and found you fighting with this beast." Fahai said.
After Fahai finished speaking, he looked around and sighed sadly.
He used his magic power to move all the bodies of the dead people into the huge pit. The Bull Demon King stomped his feet on the ground, and the soil on the ground rolled and buried the huge pit, forming a huge mound.
"Hu..." Tianpeng opened his mouth and a flame spurted out of his mouth, burning the already scattered village and the bodies of the monsters.
After everything was done, everyone was still in a bad mood.
"Master, why? Is it really them? Isn't Buddhism compassionate?" Wukong asked at this time.
Fahai remained silent, just bowed his head and chanted the sutra to the mound.
"Brother." Tianpeng quietly pulled Wukong and shook his head, signaling him not to ask.
Fahai was very upset at this time. Although Su Yu had told him many times before that Buddhism was wrong, and he himself understood the shortcomings of Buddhism, he still retained a trace of friendship with Buddhism in his heart, otherwise he would not have let Jianglong find an opportunity to kowtow to Tathagata for him in Lingshan.
But now, the friendship in his heart has been completely lost. Wukong and others don't understand the reason, but he is very clear. A long time ago, he heard Buddhist disciples talk about a country in Xiniu Hezhou that did not believe in Buddhism and worshipped Taoism. It was the Lion Camel Country. I didn't expect that it would do such evil things now, just because of faith.
After Fahai recited the Rebirth Mantra three times, he suddenly raised his head, looked into the distance, and then turned around and said to Wukong.
"Wukong, leave quickly, someone from the Buddhist sect is coming, hurry." Fahai urged.
"Ah? What?" Zhizunbao hadn't reacted yet.
"Tianpeng, you guys help Wukong leave quickly." Fahai said to the two.
Tianpeng instantly understood what Fahai meant and quickly held Wukong's arm.
"Brother, don't forget your identity, leave quickly." After saying that, he pulled Wukong to fly far away. The Bull Demon King hesitated for a while and realized that the person coming must be above Daluo, otherwise Fahai would not urge them to leave.
"Master, be careful." After saying that, he also flashed away.
If Sun Wukong appeared directly in front of the Buddhist masters, his true identity would be discovered, so Fahai drove them away as soon as possible.
Fahai did not leave, he planned to delay the person coming, otherwise Wukong and his friends would not be able to escape.
"Old Zhu, what's going on?" Wukong asked in the air.
"My brother, have you forgotten your identity? The matter of the sky-repairing stone cannot be let to the Buddhist sect now, this is what the emperor has told us." Tianpeng smiled bitterly.
"Oh, I almost forgot." Wukong slapped his head. He was so immersed in the role of Zhizunbao that he almost forgot about it.
At this time, Niu Mowang also caught up.
"Alas, I forgot to bring the jade slip given by my master this time. Otherwise, why would I run away." Zhizunbao said regretfully.
"Let's get away quickly. Master Fahai is now a quasi-saint. He will be fine." Niu Mowang said.
Then several people accelerated and flew eastward.
At this time, in Lion Camel Ridge, Fahai sat cross-legged on a huge rock.
A burst of pressure gradually appeared in the sky, and then the whole sky was shrouded in Buddha's light, a golden piece.
I saw that the Buddha's light in the sky slowly gathered and finally merged into an old monk sitting cross-legged on a lotus throne.
"Good, good." The monk said with a compassionate face.
Fahai seemed not to care about the other party. He still sat cross-legged on the stone with his eyes closed.
"It's you? Jin Chanzi." The old monk said.
At this time, Fahai finally opened his eyes slowly and looked up at the sky.
"Greetings to the Buddha Rādhāng." Fahai put his hands together and said.
"Amitabha, Jin Chanzi, where is my eagle?" Rādhāng asked.
"Dang..."
Fahai flicked the purple gold bowl beside him.
"I have saved the eagle." Fahai said lightly, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
Hearing this, Rādhāng paused, and then looked at Fahai solemnly.
"I have told Tathāgata a long time ago that you are an anomaly in my Buddhist sect. I didn't expect that." Rādhāng shook his head with regret.
"An oddity? The poor monk disagrees. If we want to talk about oddities, hypocritical people like you are the oddities in our Buddhist sect." Fa Hai looked at the burning lamp and said.
"Huh?" Ran Deng was a little surprised. He suddenly felt that the Jin Chanzi in front of him became very strange.
"Jin Chanzi, you have fallen into the devil's barrier. Follow me back to Lingshan Mountain and apologize to the Buddha!" Ran Deng said.
At this time, Fahai slowly stood up from the boulder.
"Thank you Lord Randen Buddha for your kindness, but it's a pity that Lingshan is not the Lingshan in my heart." Fahai shook his head.
"Amitabha." Ran Deng stretched out his hand and used his magical power to hold the Buddha's kingdom in his palm. In an instant, the entire Shituo Ridge was enveloped in his palm, trying to capture Fa Hai by force.
Fahai turned around and took off his cassock. With a wave of force, the cassock instantly became as huge as the sky and the earth, just in time to block the giant palm that lifted up the sky.
A violent flash of Buddha's light flashed, and the Buddha's kingdom in Ran Deng's palm was instantly destroyed. The cassock became smaller again and returned to Fa Hai.
"Huh?" Ran Deng looked at Fa Hai solemnly.
"You made a breakthrough? How is it possible?" Ran Deng understood from the previous exchange of moves that Fahai has now advanced to the quasi-sage, which is the same state as the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.
Ran Deng's eyes moved, as if he was thinking about something.
"That's all, since you have reached this level, I don't need to pursue Brother Dapeng's matter. Jin Chanzi can follow me back to Lingshan." Ran Deng said in a gentle tone. Ran Deng wants to win Fahai back to Lingshan Buddhism, so that Buddhism will have one more quasi-sage.
When Fahai heard this, he became more and more disappointed and shook his head.
"The poor monk said that it is your spiritual mountain, not mine."
"Are you really going to betray Buddhism?" Ran Deng said angrily.
"No, Buddhism has always been in the heart of the poor monk, so why would he betray it?" Fahai shook his head and said.
At this time, Fahai sensed something again, looked into the distance and realized that someone from the Buddhist sect was coming again. Seeing that Ran Deng was not aware of Wukong and the others, he decided to retreat again.
"Buddha Ran Deng, this poor monk has something to do, so I'll take my leave first." After Fa Hai finished speaking, he stood up and left.
"How brave." Ran Deng understood that Fa Hai must have noticed it, and quickly prepared to stop him.
I saw him quickly approaching Fahai, and slapped Fahai with his palms mixed with endless power.
"Hmph." Fa Hai was also unfazed, and attacked the opponent with his magic wand.
"Bang..."
After a loud noise, Fahai quickly retreated backwards with the help of the opponent's attack, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Ran Deng stopped in place, his palms trembling slightly.
Then he looked at Fa Hai's retreating back, remained silent for a long time, and then raised his palm slightly, only to see a hole in his palm, with blood flowing down.
"Innate magic weapon..." Ran Deng murmured.
"Buddha..." A voice came at this time.
I saw a figure riding a giant white elephant coming this way, it was Samantabhadra Bodhisattva.
Ran Deng slightly retracted his palms into his sleeves.
"You're here." Ran Deng said.
"Yes, when the disciple received the news, he rushed over as soon as possible. Where is Buddha and Dapeng?" Puxian asked.
Ran Deng Buddha shook his head and said.
"The roc has fallen."
"Amitabha." Samantabhadra recited the Buddha's name upon hearing this.
The white elephant under him also showed an unbelievable look.
"Buddha, do you know who did this?" Samantabhadra asked.
"Jin Chanzi." Ran Deng didn't hide anything.
"How is it possible? How could it be him." Puxian was suddenly startled, showing an expression of disbelief.
"There must be someone behind Jin Chanzi. He is now a quasi-sage. He just fought against me, but unfortunately he escaped." Randen Buddha continued.
Puxian was extremely shocked, Jin Chanzi was actually a quasi-sage.
"Go back to Lingshan first." After Ran Deng said, he flew back to the throne and flew towards Lingshan.
Samantabhadra looked around, and then his eyes fell on the ground. He saw something glowing red where the Deng Deng Buddha had just stood. Samantabhadra stretched out his hand and made a move.
I saw a drop of crystal clear red blood floating over.
"Could it be?"
Feeling the energy contained in the blood, Puxian didn't dare to think too much. A ball of flame appeared in his palm and burned the blood, and then flew away westward on the white elephant.
Not long after, several figures came here cautiously.
"Elder brother, this is..."
"The evil spirit is gone."
"Did the Supreme Treasure and the others win? There were several powerful auras just now, and I was scared to death."
"It seems to be a Buddhist. I saw the Buddha's light."
It was Jian Yun and his junior brothers who came.
"Supreme Treasure, thank you." Jian Yun looked at it.
"Don't let any of you tell anyone about this matter, especially the Buddhist people, otherwise you will suffer disaster." Jian Yun warned.
"Yes, senior brother, we know." Junior brother Qingyun responded.
"Let's go back and tell the king that Shituoling is safe." After speaking, Jian Yun pulled out his sword and took the lead to leave with his sword.
The other three people quickly followed, and peace finally returned to Shituoling. If it weren't for the remaining traces of the battle and the huge mound like a tomb, no one would have known how terrible things had happened here.
