Peerless Taoist

Behind the golden light, countless demonic energies surged out. Wretched screams and vicious curses echoed in the temple hall.    

The resentment and evil thoughts instantly filled the entire temple hall, and the surroundings turned cold. Coldness surged into their hearts.    

As the coldness enveloped them, the golden light that shrouded the Buddha’s body suddenly dissipated.    

Under the golden light were ghastly and terrifying skin. The solemn and dignified group of Buddhas turned into a group of ferocious monsters in the blink of an eye.    

The Buddha sitting cross-legged in front of the old monk had even more drastic changes to his appearance.    

The Buddha’s body was no longer large, but rather, he was as thin as a stick. From his thin body, monstrous demonic energy surged out. Especially his eyes, which were like the eyes of a devil in the night, filled with viciousness and malice, as if he hid countless schemes and tricks.    

In the temple hall, raging flames burned.    

Many experts of the Buddhism League, including the Golden Body of the Buddha, were covered by the raging flames. They let out shrill screams, as if they still retained the pain before death.    

The old monk only felt his scalp go numb. He cried out involuntarily, “Revered Lord!”    

However, there was no response. All he could hear was the terrifying murderous aura.    

At this moment, he had fallen into the devil's den.    

There was no more resplendent Buddhist hall in front of him. In front of him was clearly a hellish devil cave filled with evil!    

"This is the Buddhist inheritance that you have always wanted."    

Lu Yu said, "Where is the Buddhist inheritance? I'm afraid that at the last moment, even the Buddha would be controlled by evil thoughts and become a devil!"    

The old monk trembled all over, shaking like a sieve. He refused to believe the truth in front of him and took a few steps back.    

Seeing this, Lu Yu could not help but sigh slightly, "That mysterious power has aroused the evil in his heart. At the last moment of his life, he chose to scheme against his most pious believer."    

"After ten thousand years, are you sure that the memories in your mind are correct?"    

Hearing Lu Yu's question, the old monk's eyes were dull. A memory that he had not seen for a long time surged into his mind.    

The memories that had been sealed up appeared in front of him once again.    

That year, in the Great Thunderchant Temple.    

The person who had received the inheritance of the Buddha was so excited that he could not speak. "Your Excellency, you have given me strength. I am willing to do anything for you."    

However, the gratitude of the believer was in exchange for the Buddha's ridicule.    

The Buddha who was sitting cross-legged on the lotus flower let out a nearly maniacal laughter. That laughter was filled with endless ridicule, as if he was a mad devil.    

A fiery flame burst out from the Buddha's body, burning the body that had been corroded by the demonic energy.    

The terrifying laughter reverberated in the temple hall. The scripture-holder was frightened. His mind was sealed at that moment.    

“This must be a trial by fire by the Lord of the World. I want to bring Buddhism to greater heights.”    

On that day, the scripture-holder muttered to himself. He was in a daze as he stumbled out of the temple hall.    

He sealed all of his memories in the deepest part of his mind. He only remembered what he subconsciously thought.    

The Buddha had not said anything to him.    

That day, the Great Leiyin Temple was in chaos. All the Buddhas turned into bloodthirsty demons.    

“You are right. Buddhism no longer exists. I will soon become a demon.” The old monk closed his eyes in pain.
