1611 Can You Contain Me? Can You Guide Me? Visit Violet Eye Clan
“If the Spiritual Mountain is still being suppressed, where did this Great Thunder Temple come from?” Chu Kuangren could not help but scoff at it.
It did not appear while the Five Ways Pure Land was suffering immense losses, when the Buddha Destroyers tried to overrun the entire Far West Land, or even during more peaceful times like when the believers were increasing.
Therefore, Chu Kuangren had nothing but disdain for the Great Thunder Temple.
“Brother Chu, you shouldn’t look down on the Great Thunder Temple. They are quite unpredictable and have a powerful background.”
“How say? They have an Embodier?” Chu Kuangren simply asked.
Buddha Yun Lan was silenced, and her reaction surprised Chu Kuangren.
“Do they really have an Embodier?”
“Haha… It’s indeed the ‘Great’ Thunder Temple. When the Wicked Buddha tried to overrun the place, they were not there. And when the dust has settled, they come out to show off? What a bunch of narcissists.”
Chu Kuangren cackled sarcastically. “The Buddhist world is indeed full of witty geniuses who know how to seize the perfect opportunity to harvest the most out of troubled times.”
Buddha Yun Lan smiled bitterly. “The human heart is also the Buddha’s heart. The human heart can change, and the Buddha’s heart can also be stained.”
“Whatever. I’m not interested in the Buddhist world’s affairs. I’ll think of a way to deal with Shi Ying’s matter. We’ve been chatting for days now, and I should be on my way.”
With that, Chu Kuangren got up and left.
After he left, the monks of Euphoria Pure Land sighed a heavy breath of relief as if they had just escaped death.
Only they themselves knew how much of a pressure Chu Kuangren was to them.
It was like having Papiyas in Mahavira Hall. It was terrifying!
While Chu Kuangren traveled away from Euphoria Pure Land, his mind was thinking of a way to save Shi Ying.
The physical body was easy to recover, but the key here would be her soul.
After several deduction sessions with Lil Ai, he still could not come up with an effective way to execute it.
Suddenly, a thought rushed into his mind.
“Soul… Doesn’t the Soul Restricted Area practice soul-related techniques?”
Maybe his answer lay deep in the Soul Restricted Area.
However, due to his multiple conflicts with the Soul Restricted Area, it would be difficult for him to seek help from there.
“I guess I’ll have to plan it out carefully,” he thought.
“Daoist Brother, hold on!”
A voice called him from behind.
Chu Kuangren turned around and saw a young monk in a golden Kasaya and a golden Zen scepter.
The monk bore a just demeanor and had a faint smile on his face. His welcoming presence would easily increase people’s fondness for him.
“What is it?”
“My Buddhist name is Fa Zhang. I see you have quite the wisdom and are a perfect candidate to join the Buddhist world. Why don’t you join us at the Great Thunder Temple?” Fa Zhang said with a kind smile.
Great Thunder Temple?
Chu Kuangren was intrigued by the invitation. He had just gotten to know the Great Thunder Temple from Buddha Yun Lan, and he ran into a monk from there?
“Yes, Daoist Brother. Join us. Buddha will protect and bless you.”
“I see you have so much wisdom and cognizance in you. If you join the Great Thunder Temple, you’ll definitely improve your cultivation.”
“Join us, Daoist Brother.”
There were many others around Fa Zhang. Some were commoners, some were cultivators, and all of them were trying to invite Chu Kuangren to join the Great Thunder Temple. Every word they spoke carried the deep admiration they had for the temple.
Fa Zhang looked at Chu Kuangren confidently.
Chu Kuangren was an extraordinary person. His temperament, his outstanding looks, and the unusual Daoist Rhyme, every aspect of him spelled extraordinary! He might even be a Prodigy in cultivation!
If Fa Zhang could persuade him to join the Great Thunder Temple, it would be a merit for him, and he would be praised by Buddha.
“I don’t believe in Buddha. I only believe in myself,” Chu Kuangren said.
“My friend, please be mindful of what you say. Buddha’s greatness is unimaginable.”
“Yes. Join us and cultivate Buddhism with us at Great Thunder Temple.”
The group was relentless.
Fa Zhang then said with a smile, “Buddhism is boundless. If you join us, I can assure you that you will achieve Gilded Immortal in less than a hundred years.”
Arch Gilded Immortals were considered great ones in the Immortal World. Therefore, Gilded Immortals were commonly known as experts.
Fa Zhang was by no means weak. He was a Gilded Immortal, and given his age, he was definitely a Prodigy.
“I’m afraid the Buddhist world can’t contain me, and Buddhism can’t guide me,” Chu Kuangren said.
“Friend, worry not. The Great Thunder Temple’s door is always open. How can it not contain you? Buddhism is boundless. Even if you have committed crimes, as long as you repent sincerely, it will be able to guide you to righteousness.”
“Is that so?”
“I speak only the truth.”
Kaboom!
At that very moment, a boundless killing intent erupted and shrouded heaven and earth.
The intense killing intent almost became real as it sent chills down one’s spine.
Bodies of monks suddenly appeared beneath Chu Kuangren’s feet, and the blood of Arhats and Bodhisattvas flowed, staining the land red.
It was like the doomsday of the Buddhist world had arrived.
Fa Zhang was petrified when Chu Kuangren manifested his killing intent.
When he saw the doomsday images, his eyes had nothing but fear.
“The Devil! He’s the Devil!”
“No! Amitabha! This must be false!”
“This is impossible!”
The others behind Fa Zhang were frightened as well. They looked at Chu Kuangren as if he was a devil reincarnate; some were even knocked unconscious by the horrifying scene.
Chu Kuangren looked at Fa Zhang indifferently. “Now, answer me. Can the Buddhist world contain me, and can Buddhism guide me?”
From his chilly tone, it felt like he was speaking from the deepest part of hell.
“W-Who are you?”
“Who am I? I’m someone that the Great Thunder Temple can’t afford to piss off,” Chu Kuangren grunted and left.
The doomsday images branded themselves in Fa Zhang’s mind and heart, scarring him permanently.
“He is Buddha’s greatest enemy!”
“If we don’t erase him from existence, the Buddhist world will never be at peace. He is more sinful than Papiyas himself!” Fa Zhang muttered to himself. His Buddhist’s core almost shattered out of shock.
Chu Kuangren did not care about what happened later. He simply sent a message to Lan Yu and the others to check on them.
After knowing they were doing well, he arrived at the Holy Violet Emperor Planet and went to the Violet Eye clan.
The Violet Eye clan was an ancient clan on the planet that excelled in utilizing soul techniques. It was said that they were related to the Soul Restricted Area and were an affiliated organization to the higher power inside.
However, they were now affiliated with Chu Kuangren because the whole planet was under his control.
Upon learning of Chu Kuangren’s arrival, the clan leader of the Violet Eye clan came out to welcome him.
Deep down, he was more afraid than ever to meet Chu Kuangren.
“Greetings, Brother Chu, I’m the Clan Leader of the Violet Eye clan,” the Violet Eye Clan Leader greeted him respectfully.
“The Violet Eye clan is known for its Soul Dao, so you guys must have collected a lot of books and scriptures on the soul cultivation technique. Where are they?”
“They are all kept in our library. If Brother Chu is interested in having a look, please follow me.”
Violet Eye Clan Leader dared not ask why Chu Kuangren wanted to see them. All he could do was lead the man to the library.
Chu Kuangren utilized his Immortal Consciousness and scanned the entire library for soul-related cultivation techniques. All the knowledge entered his mind.
“As Soul Restricted Area’s affiliated clan, you are now under my rule. Have they contacted you to spy on me or stab me in the back when you have the chance?” Chu Kuangren asked indifferently as he went through the books and scriptures.
