Chương 320: Great Thunder Sound Heavenly Dragon Treasure Temple

A place where the sound of Sanskrit entwined, the light of Buddha was shining in the world, a sacred and solemn place.

The Great Thunder Sound Heavenly Dragon Treasure Temple, The Buddha Enlightenment Hall.

There was a handsome monk in white sitting on a futon, softly chanting Buddhist sutras. Although the voice wasn't loud, the sound turned into a lotus, the highest Buddhism sound.

Besides this handsome monk, a spider with a human face and dull eyes looking at him.

Perhaps the female spider felt so uncomfortable.

It transformed into a beautiful woman. She was barefoot, with a snow-white complexion. She tiptoed to the monk's side and leaned her head gently on the monk's shoulder.

"Don't be distracted when chanting the sutra and reciting the Buddha. After saying so many times, why isn't this profoundly qualitative." Head Priest Yun's voice was gentle. He thought he had passed the difficulty after a year and extradited the other side into the Buddhist sect.

Although it couldn't be transmitted outside, but it had been challenging to feel the demonic qi from the demon because the demon itself only carried the remaining trace.

A look of satisfaction appeared on the face of the red spider, "I like to be close to you."

She liked being with him, and she was at ease when she was close by his side.

Head Priest Yun shook his head gently and let her go.

BANG!

Just at that moment, the door of the Buddha Enlightenment Hall was pushed open. Head Priest Yun's face was expressionless, but his Buddha's heart trembled slightly. When he looked up, the abbot and the head priests were coming with rage.

When they saw the demon girl leaning next to Head Priest Yun, even their unshakable Buddha hearts burned with anger.

"What are you doing? Why are you bringing the female demon back to the holy land of the Buddha Sect? Do you know that this is blasphemy against the Buddha Sect?" The abbot glared and rebuked angrily, grieving inwardly.

Head Priest Yun was his most favored disciple, and the future abbot of the Great Thunder Sound Heavenly Dragon Treasure Temple was bound to be him.

However, looking at the situation now.

How dared he brought the female demon back and even made such an intimate unashamed move?

If the outside world knew, where should they put their faces?

Head Priest Yun got up, folded his hands, and said, "Abbot, brothers and sisters, please listen to me. She is indeed a demon, but now she has been extradited by me to the Buddhist Sect to listen to the sutras and is no longer a demon."

"Shut up." The abbot scolded.

The other head priests around, some pained, some gloating.

What could the Buddhists do?

Even immortals had selfish desires, let alone cultivators who had not yet become immortals.

"I ask you, what is the first tenet of the Buddhist Sect?" The abbot asked.

Head Priest Yun said, "To eliminate demons and kill demons when you encounter them."

"Then why are you doing this now?" the abbot asked with heartache. It's as if his favored successor had done something that broke his heart with the wrath of heaven.

Originally, with the abbot's character, he would not be like this. However, this was his most favored disciple, and his Buddha's heart couldn't be calmed.

Head Priest Yun said with folded hands, "Abbot, everything in this world has a spirit. Originally, this disciple also thought that all the demons were evil. However, this disciple did not kill the demons that appeared around me because of the difficulty. After a year of living together, this disciple realized that all things have Buddha-nature and need a generous heart."

"Please, I'm asking the abbot to give her a chance."

At this moment, another head priest spoke out, "The demon must have compelled Senior Brother Yun, Abbot. If what he said gets out, the Great Thunder Sound Heavenly Dragon Treasure Temple will become a joke. Perhaps the only way to save senior brother is to kill this female demon."

"I think senior brother has a point; all things have Buddha-nature."

"No, he is compelled by the female demon. How can we sit back and do nothing?"

"This matter still needs to be decided by the abbot."

Some head priests thought that what Head Priest Yun said was justified, but some disagreed. The reason was simple: they felt pressure on Head Priest Yun's presence, and the pressure made them unable to turn over.

The red spider's face looked frightened as she hid behind him.

In her eyes, the Buddha light emanating from these monks was so terrifying. It was as if she was surrounded by a blazing fire and would quickly be burned to ashes.

The abbot saw all this. He could not tolerate this matter to happen, not even for his most favored disciple.

"Kill her, and this matter will be treated as if it never happened. As a disciple of the Buddhist Sect, you should know that some things are not as simple as you think. The reputation of the Great Thunder Sound Heavenly Dragon Treasure Temple cannot be destroyed at the hands of a female demon."

"You know what?"

The abbot looked serious as he spoke these words; his robe was flung, and golden light flashed.

CLANG!

A Golden Nine-Ringed Dharma Scepter was inserted into the ground, emitting a robust Buddhist light.

Head Priest Yun looked at the Nine-Ringed Dharma Scepter and did not move. He was deep in contemplation, not expecting things to turn out like this.

One of the head priests stood out and folded his hands and said, "Abbot, senior brother's words are not without reason. We can ferry the demon into the Buddhist Sect because our Great Thunder Sound Heavenly Dragon Treasure Temple's Buddhist teachings are powerful. Others can't do it, but we can do it..."

"I hope the abbot will consider it."

His words drew other head priests to fill the cloth.

A slightly chubby head priest with a kind face kept narrowing his eyes and said, "Female demon, my senior brother is a senior monk of the Great Thunder Sound Heavenly Dragon Treasure Temple. In the future, he may also be the abbot. After ascending, he will have a seat in the Buddhist Sect in the Immortal Realm, and by following him, you will only lead him to a place of no return."

"Even if we can tolerate you today, but in the future, my senior brother will only be spurned by the world and have no place to live..."

"If you said this for his good, you shouldn't have appeared."

Upon hearing these words, the spider red still looked terrified. She looked at the monks and then at the people in front of her.

And just at that moment, Head Priest Yun said, "Senior brother, I have no intention to compete with you for the abbot position; why do you have to be so aggressive. She is a young demon who has entered the Buddhist Sect, and why you, as the head priest of the Buddha Hall, can't even tolerate her?"

Upon hearing it, the fat monk growled, "Humph, what do you mean by this, Senior Brother Yun? Could it be that you can't endure the demon you bred? That is, you have no heart of endurance?"

Head Priest Yun said, "Senior brother, there is no such meaning."

The red spider kneeled in front of the Head Priest. She bent her head and said, "There is no need to fight for me, I am content for one year, but I wish to die in your hands."

"This is the robe I wove for you; I hope you can keep it."

Then, the red spider took out a robe. The robe was red and embroidered with a small spider that had a smiling face on it.

The slightly fat monk said, "You're a Buddhist monk and the head priest, but the demon compelled your heart. What a joke."

Head Priest Yun raised his hand with a buzzing sound. The Nine Ring Dharma Scepter entered his hand, and his eyes were wide open. He did not pick up the robe, which should not have shaken his Buddha's heart. He was shaking now, and the hand was holding the Nine Ring Dharma Scepter was trembling.

He looked up at the abbot and many of his brothers.

Some lowered their eyebrows and chanted the Buddha's name, while others waited for him to make a move.

Finally, he looked at the abbot.

That one was the person he respected the most.

He had already gotten the result from the abbot's eyes.

"Ah!"

Head Priest Yun raised his Nine Ring Dharma Scepter high and prepared to kill the red spider by dropping it. However, the moment he was about to touch it, he stopped his hand and flung the Nine Ring Dharma Scepter away.

"Abbot, can you spare her life and let her go. This disciple is willing to go face the wall for a hundred years to refine the Buddha's heart."

The abbot knew well the disciple's heart and was just about to agree when the slightly fat head priest on the side said, "Senior, you can't stay. If you stay, you will have a defect in your Buddha's heart, and an incomplete Buddha's heart will bring you unimaginable harm in the future."

"…Abbot, do not let senior brother leave a demon in his heart; otherwise, it will not be good for future transitions."

Those who were standing on the side of the fat head priest all nodded and responded.

"Senior brother has a point."

"Senior brother, you must not be bent on your own. Who is this demon that has compelled you to such an extent?"

The abbot sighed softly. Indeed, he wanted to agree to let her go, but what the other disciples said was not without reason. Only by eliminating the demon could the future be ended forever.

The red spider did not want to see him embarrassed, "I am willing; there is no need to be embarrassed."

Originally, Head Priest Yun never wanted to believe that he would lose to the demons, but now at this moment, he honestly knew that he had lost, failed utterly.

He thought his Buddha's heart was unshakeable.

However, he was profoundly trapped and did not know it.

Only when this kind of thing happened did he become completely enlightened.

He folded his hands and lowered his eyebrows to recite the sutra, "I have known my mistake, and I would like to exchange a thousand years of cultivation for her life so that in the future, the green lamp and the ancient Buddha will accompany me for the rest of my life. I will practice Buddhism again, without any distracting thoughts, may I?"

The abbot's face seemed to have aged considerably, "Good."

Head Priest Yun revealed a smile, then said, "Thank you, Abbot, for making it possible."

"You go away, don't let me see you in the future, because I will eliminate you."

The red spider looked up, and her eyes hazy with tears. She handed the red robe to Head Priest Yun and said in a soft voice, "This is for you."

Head Priest Yun's face was expressionless. With a light wave, the robe turned into pieces and floated to the ground, "No, go away, there is no longer any connection between you and me. I will forget you, and you will be just a demon to me that I will destroy when I meet."

The red spider looked at the robe pieces that floated down to the ground and froze for a long time, "You will forget me, but I will not forget. For me, I would rather you remember me forever."

The words just fell.

The red spider extinguished its qi. Her body emerged, then turned into ashes and floated up.

Head Priest Yun's lips were slightly open. His eyes were dull, and the ashes that floated up flew towards the sky as if they were about to disappear.

He reached out and tried to catch these, but all he caught was nothingness.

"Congratulations, senior brother, for removing the demonic barrier in your heart." The slight fat head priest said with folded hands.

"Ai!"

The abbot sighed. It was over when it came to that.

"No more."

When the crowd heard the voice, they didn't think much about it, but gradually, they realized that something was wrong with the situation.

An evil qi swept out from his body. Head Priest Yun raised his head and stared blankly at the top of the painting covered with immortal Buddhas.

The fragments of the red robe floating on the ground undulated slightly as if they had reorganized, gradually turning his white robe into the red.

"It's not good. Senior brother's demonic barrier is forming; he's going to become a demon." Someone cried out in alarm.

The abbot instantly moved, spitting out the Buddhist Sect's golden lotus, surrounding Head Priest Yun.

The sound of Sanskrit resounded, rumbling and booming; any evil mind here would vanish into thin air.

However, these golden lotuses did not affect Head Priest Yun.

"Why should I be held back by the rules of the Buddhist Sect?"

"With my cultivation to take her away, who can stop me?"

The abbot already had a bad feeling that this difficulty was not only for him but also for the heavenly dao...

"Wake up." The abbot gathered the dazzling Buddha power and tried to wake him up from his mind demon.

However....

Head Priest Yun's palm fell, and a terrifying might erupted. The Buddha Enlightenment Hall shattered, and the surrounding people were directly shaken out.
