After enjoying a simple meal, Xiao Fan thanked the old man very gratefully.
"Haha, young man, although the old man has been hunting all his life, he can never be wrong about people. You are by no means an ordinary person, but no matter how much I do, I can't help you. Although I don't know what you believed in before.
You are a Bodhisattva, but you still go to Guansheng Bodhisattva Temple to burn incense sticks, hoping that Guansheng Bodhisattva can appear and help you!" the old man suggested with a smile.
"Well, that's what I meant. Thank you for your kindness!" Xiao Fan smiled slightly and set off to the Guansheng Bodhisattva Temple.
No matter how barren these mortal villages are, the temples erected in their villages are all majestic and magnificent. This is also a major feature of the Buddhist world.
But ordinary people would never set foot in this temple unless they were burning incense and praying to Buddha, so the kind-hearted old man just showed Xiao Fan the way.
After strolling into the Guansheng Bodhisattva Temple, Xiao Fan's brows moved slightly, and then his eyes glanced around.
"There are about twenty people here, but their cultivation levels are not high. Although we don't have much power now, if we deal with them, we can kill three thousand five thousand with one finger!" Mal's voice echoed in Xiao Fan's head.
sounded.
"Well, those with the highest cultivation level can only be compared to the immortals who are at the tenth level of mortal immortals. In the hierarchy of the Buddhist world, it seems that those below human immortals are called protectors!" Xiao Fan nodded.
Xiao Fan understood some of the hierarchical divisions in the Buddhist world when he was in the Six Realms, but it was not complete.
The real ones should be Buddha, Bodhisattva, Mingwang, Buddha, Dharma Protector, Arhat, Heavenly King, Vajra, Jialan, Commoner, Bhikkhu, and Novice.
Those below the level of Arhat are just ordinary little characters. Xiao Fan fought with them to the death when he was in the Six Realms.
What is truly terrifying is the existence above the protectors.
These people are the masters of the Buddhist world who have truly mastered powerful combat capabilities.
If it weren't for the fact that they were far less numerous in number than the Immortal Realm, otherwise their strength would be many times greater than that of the Immortal Realm!
Mortal immortals to the level of human immortals are called protectors in the Buddhist world.
From earthly immortals to heavenly immortals, they are called Buddhas in the Buddhist world.
A golden immortal reaches the level of a king immortal, and is called a bright king in the immortal world.
Of course, there are some Ming Kings who have reached the level of Xuanxian, but they are just rare.
Although the masters of Xuanxian should be classified into the levels of Bodhisattva and Great Mingwang, it is a pity that these Mingwangs who became Xuanxian can only stay at the level of Mingwang because of their own race.
Because most of them are monsters!
That’s right, humans are not the only ones who exist in the Buddhist world!
Those powerful beast tribes, after being baptized by the special power of Buddhism, were reborn and transformed into human forms. They are the so-called demons!
Initially, in the Buddhist world, the appearance of demons would inevitably become the object of obliteration by the Buddhists. In ancient times, wars between the Buddhist world and the demon clan continued.
But the one who wins in the end is the lineage of Buddhism that can continuously improve its own strength with the help of faith in living beings.
The defeated demon clan was assimilated by Buddhism, integrated into the Buddhist family, and became part of the rulers of the Buddhist world.
But because of their race, no matter how powerful the demon clan becomes, they can only become Mingwang at the most. This is also a kind of caution against the demon clan by the Buddhists.
"Donor, you're a very nice person. Are you here to offer incense to the great Guansheng Bodhisattva?" A bald monk walked out of the main hall, clasped his hands and smiled at Xiao Fan.
"Yeah!" Xiao Fan nodded and said, "I came here for the first time and passed by here. Why did I have to go to Zhuxiang before leaving!"
"The donor is interested, please come in and invite me!" After looking at Xiao Fan for a few times, the monk politely extended his hand to invite him.
Although Xiao Fan doesn't have much power now, his powerful soul and spirit have not changed. The majesty and momentum he displays are beyond the comparison of ordinary mortals.
As the monk entered the main hall, the huge statue of Guansheng Bodhisattva was erected inside.
He had an otherworldly face, was wearing a white cassock, and was holding a suet jade bottle in his hand. He exuded a powerful majesty, and the aura of being the master of heaven and earth suddenly emanated from the Buddha statue and came from the pavement.
"Donor, please offer incense. Believing in the boundless Buddha's Dharma, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, you can eliminate all diseases and prolong your life!" The monk said, raising his hand to point to the incense table next to him, on which countless sandalwoods were neatly placed.
"So that's it, that Guan Sheng Bodhisattva left a trace of his soul in this Buddha statue, and used this statue to gather the power of faith from the people!" Xiao Fan only glanced at the Buddha statue and immediately understood what was going on.
secret.
"Don't worry, although it's okay to offer incense, the one I believe in is not Guansheng Bodhisattva!" Xiao Fan said suddenly.
"Oh? I don't know which Bodhisattva the donor believes in? But no matter what, the twelve Bodhisattvas are all our supreme Buddhas. It doesn't matter if I believe in any one of them, right?" The monk was stunned for a moment, and then said quietly.
"That's true... However, the person I believe in is not a Bodhisattva, but a bright king named Peacock!" Xiao Fan raised the corner of his mouth.
"King Peacock Ming?" The monk's expression changed, and suddenly a murderous look flashed across his face: "Who are you? Are you a rebel army who came to destroy the statue of Guansheng Bodhisattva?"
As he spoke, he shouted loudly, blinked, and all the monks in the temple rushed over and surrounded Xiao Fan in the center!
"Rebels? It turns out that Brother Qinglian is like this now!" Xiao Fan raised his eyebrows and ignored the monks at all. Instead, he rubbed his chin and continued to look at the Buddha statue of Guansheng Bodhisattva: "Yes, if
If they smash all the Buddha statues of these Bodhisattvas, they will lose the ability to gain people's faith. Although it is a bit troublesome, it is still an effective method!"
"All disciples, take it down!" The monk who was comparable to the tenth-level mortal immortal and had a law-protecting cultivation level shouted loudly, and everyone immediately took action towards Xiao Fan.
"Don't waste your efforts, you can't even touch a hair on my face!" Xiao Fan smiled with a smile on his face, and with a slight movement of his fingers, the space in the entire temple suddenly became distorted, and waves of invisible force shook the bodies of all the monks.
The shape was tightly bound, making them unable to move at all!
Of course, with Xiao Fan's current dilapidated physical condition, he can only do so much. If the monks here were more advanced, it would be difficult for him to deal with them.
"This... what kind of magic is this?" All the monks were shocked and turned pale.
"Demon magic? How rude! This is an authentic magic!" Xiao Fan shook his head, raised his hand to grab it, and sucked the protector in front of him. He said in a cold voice: "Okay, stop struggling, you guys have no idea.
There is no way you can resist! Just answer my few questions obediently!"
"Humph, you thieves, how can I give in?" the monk said with a firm look on his face.
"Really? Then don't blame me!" Xiao Fan waved his sleeves, and suddenly ten monks screamed, and the power of life flew out from their seven orifices and merged into Xiao Fan's palm.
In the blink of an eye, those ten monks turned into withered bones and scattered on the ground!
"Evil!" When the monk saw this, his eyes widened and he was filled with anger.
"Well, this title is indeed correct, I am the devil!" Xiao Fan licked his lips and said coldly.
"We are Buddhist disciples, how can we bow to evil spirits? Even if you kill us, under the power of the great Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, we will gain eternal life!"
"Hey, it's the same thing again. Forget it, I'm not interested in asking you anymore!" Xiao Fan sighed. It's a bit unreasonable to go on a killing spree just after arriving in the Buddhist world, but since he used the banner of Peacock King, he was besieged.
, is enough to show that the other party is an enemy. Since he is an enemy, he will never show mercy. This is what Xiao Fan does!
"Swish, swish, swish!" Immediately afterwards, all the other monks lost their life force and turned into skeletons and fell down.
Xiao Fan, on the other hand, circulated the power of life he had just obtained within his body for a week, turning it into a weak ray of immortal power, condensing it in the palm of his hand, and firmly buckled it on the Heavenly Spirit Cap of the protecting monk in front of him.
"Soul-eating way!" Xiao Fan shouted, black light burst out from his hand, and a trace of soul suddenly invaded the opponent's mind, forcibly plundering the opponent's memory!
"Ahhhh..." The monk howled in agony, the blood vessels in his body bulged and he was trembling continuously.
"Sure enough, your memories are protected by a powerful force, just like the situation I encountered when I was in the Six Realms, but... this kind of thing has no resistance to me now!" Xiao
With a fierce flash in Fan's eyes, he forcibly destroyed the memory-protecting power in the monk's mind, read all the other's memories, and deprived him of all his power at the same time!
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Fan's figure began to slowly change, becoming the appearance of the monk, and the monk's body quickly withered, and finally turned into a pile of dust and scattered on the ground!
"Yeah!" Xiao Fan pinched his eyebrows tiredly, and immediately sat cross-legged in front of the statue of Guansheng Bodhisattva. He sealed the entire temple with a wave of his hand to prevent mortals from intruding, and began to sort out the memory information he had obtained.
.
After all, in my current situation, if I want to walk in the Buddhist world, it would be better to disguise my identity first.
And in the memory of the protecting monk, Xiao Fan also learned some information related to King Peacock Ming.
It is said that after King Kong Ming returned to the Buddhist world, he enlisted his former friends and formed a rebel army to overthrow the rule of the Buddha. However, this army acted secretly and followed strange movements. Over the years, it became the basis of the Buddhist world.
The most troublesome existence.
And as time goes by, the strength of this rebel army is getting stronger and stronger, and it has even begun to threaten the status of the Twelve Bodhisattvas. The real large-scale encirclement and suppression also began three years ago. The holy land of the Buddhist world, Lingshan, was officially released.
The demon-killing order has been issued and the rebels must be wiped out in one fell swoop.
But other situations are not something that a mere protector can know in detail.
But in addition to these, Xiao Fan also got a lot of useful information...
