Chapter 351 It’s Better Not to Read
"Qin Ming?"

Chen Xian frowned: "Qin Ming from the Qin family of the Eight Mansions?"

"Yes, that's him."

Chen Xian snorted coldly. He remembered that Qin Ming was also quite talented. He ranked among the top fifteen in the martial arts competition. His cultivation should be stable at the third level of Wanxiang now.

"Are you Qin Yu?" He turned and looked at Qin Fei.

"Brother Xian, this is a long story, let's interrogate him first." Qin Fei said, coldly asking the black-clothed man named Yu, "Does Qin Tai know that Qin Ming sent people to kill him?"

"Yes, the Duke knows this time, but he didn't know nine years ago."

"Qin Ming, Qin Tai."

Qin Fei gritted his teeth and killed the man in black named Yu with his own hands.

"Master Jinding, I'm sorry to have caused trouble for your Jinding Temple." Qin Fei said apologetically.

Master Jin Ding shook his head: "Young Master Qin, you are too kind."

Qin Fei had helped him at Jinding Temple before, so when Qin Fei fled to Jinding Temple this time, he saved Qin Fei without hesitation.

Next.

Chen Xian, Qin Fei, Master Jin Ding and others sat cross-legged in the hall.

Qin Fei recounted his past events.

Only then did Chen Xian know that Qin Fei's real name was Qin Yu, and he was the illegitimate son of Qin Tai, the Duke of Qin. Nine years ago, Qin Tai learned that he had an illegitimate child, and not wanting to make a big deal out of it, he gave Qin Fei and his mother a sum of money and allowed them to leave Kyoto and make a living elsewhere.

However, not long after the mother and son left Kyoto City, they were hunted down.

His mother died tragically, but Qin Fei was lucky enough to be rescued and survived.

The person who saved him was the original owner of the Shanhe Ding.

The original owner of the Shanhe Ding was injured, and after saving Qin Fei, he passed away in less than three months.

Although he did not become his disciple, Qin Fei regarded the latter as his master.

After his master's death, Qin Fei wandered around, wanting to become stronger in martial arts.

Finally, the imperial court recruited soldiers to suppress demons and gave them skills and martial arts. Qin Fei decided to join the army and changed his name to Qin Fei.

"I see." Chen Xian nodded secretly, "Why didn't you tell me three months ago in Kyoto City? I helped you deal with the Qin family then."

"Brother Xian, I want to solve this matter myself and avenge my mother with my own hands." Qin Fei said.

Chen Xian shook his head secretly: "With your current strength and background, it is very difficult to overthrow the Qin Mansion. At most, you can secretly kill Qin Ming and Qin Tai. But you have to think clearly. Qin Tai is the Duke of Qin, and Qin Ming is also the eldest son. He will inherit the title in the future. If you kill them, Emperor Ning will definitely investigate. Can you escape the pursuit of the Demon Suppression General Office?"

Qin Fei didn't say anything. It was for this reason that he didn't want Chen Xian and others to interfere in his affairs. Anyone who interfered would be implicated by him.

"You should serve as an official in the court and build a strong background for yourself. Then, with your amazing talent and strength, you can avenge your mother."

"Of course, if you can reach the Sky Breaking Realm, Emperor Ning would not dare to do anything to you even if you have no background, and he might even recruit you."

Chen Xian said calmly.

Qin Fei nodded: "I want to take the last road."

Hearing this, Chen Xian smiled and said, "Then don't think about revenge for the next thirty years. Just practice hard."

Qin Fei is not yet thirty years old this year, and he can reach the Sky Breaking Realm before he is sixty years old. His talent is absolutely amazing. Even the living Martial Emperors cannot reach the Sky Breaking Realm within a hundred years.

"Thirty years?" Qin Fei murmured.

Thirty years may not sound like a long time, but as the years go by, it still seems like a long time to Qin Fei.

"Brother Fei, I plan to go to Fulong Realm in a while. The area is undergoing expansion. Why don't you come with me?" Chen Xian suggested.

Qin Fei shook his head: "You have become too comfortable around me. I need to be tempered by life and death, so that I can make faster progress."

Hearing this, Chen Xian said nothing more.

Master Jin Ding smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, are you planning to go to Dajue Temple to watch the third-grade skill [Great Buddha Communication] when you come to Luobei this time?"

Chen Xian nodded: "Not bad."

Master Jin Ding said: "There have been rumors in the martial arts world that Mr. Chen has entered the devil's way. I'm afraid it won't be so easy to see immortal skills when you go to Dajue Temple this time."

Chen Xian smiled and said, "The master also said that it is just a rumor and cannot be trusted."

Master Jin Ding nodded secretly.

Judging from the way Chen Xian killed people just now, it was just as rumored, he killed people without blinking an eye. However, Chen Xian spoke clearly and logically, and he didn't sound like a devil who killed people without blinking an eye.

"I still want to remind Mr. Chen that if you are blocked on your way to Dajue Temple, don't force it."

"Thank you for the reminder, Master. Watching the Great Buddha is the reward given by the three major sects to the top three geniuses during the martial arts competition."

"The situation was special at the time. One year after the three major sects made their decision, I had to go take a look. As for whether to force them or not, that depends on whether Dajue Temple will break its promise. If they do, don't blame me, Chen Xian, for being fussy."

Chen Xian said calmly.

If Dajue Temple really wanted to make things difficult for him, it must have been influenced by the old Emperor Wu of Tianwu Sect.

But he felt that Dajue Temple should not be restrained by Tianwu Sect, otherwise it would not be worthy of being called one of the three major sects.

Chen Xian stayed in Jinding Temple for three days. When Qin Fei recovered from his injuries, they said goodbye in Jinding Temple.

Master Jin Ding looked at Chen Xian's back and sighed secretly.

Chen Xian seemed to be fine and did not look like a demon, but he was too murderous, which might be related to the fact that he was once possessed by a demon.

If this continues, it is only a matter of time before he becomes completely possessed.

……

Dajue Temple.

Chen Xian arrived as promised.

Since he parted with Qin Fei at Jinding Temple, he went to Luobei City alone and stayed in Luobei City for ten days. During this period, the old leader of the Demon Sect, Mu Tianzhi, did not appear again, nor did he encounter any assassination attempts by other Martial Emperors.

"Amitabha, who are you looking for?" There were many young monks in yellow robes at the gate of Dajue Temple. Some were cleaning and some were practicing martial arts.

Seeing Chen Xian coming, a young monk about eighteen or nineteen years old stepped forward to ask questions.

Chen Xian clasped his hands together and said, "Report to Saint Monk Jingyuan and tell him that Chen Xian is here."

"Chen Xian?"

Hearing this name, the young monk was slightly stunned. The other monks also stopped what they were doing and looked at Chen Xian.

Although I have never seen Chen Xian, his name is well-known.

The young monk quickly stepped back three steps, and the other monks gathered behind him. They all stared at Chen Xian warily, retreating all the way to Dajue Temple, staring at Chen Xian from afar: "Donor Chen, please wait a moment."

After he finished speaking, the young monk ordered someone beside him to go into the temple to report.

Not long after, an old monk in a golden robe walked out of Dajue Temple with a group of monks.

The old monk first stared at Chen Xian. After confirming his identity, he clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, I am Jingming, greetings to you, Benefactor Chen."

"Jing generation?" Chen Xian clasped his hands together.

People of the Jing generation are of the same generation as the holy monk Jingyuan. They can feel the aura of Jingming and should have achieved great supernatural powers, which is the realm of great bodhisattva.

"Chen has come as promised to see your temple's immortal skill [Dafotong]. Please let the holy monk Jingming lead the way." Chen Xian said calmly.

Jingming certainly knew the purpose of Chen Xian’s visit.

He took two steps forward, stared at Chen Xian and said, "A year ago, the three major sects had a promise that if Benefactor Chen fell into the devil's way, he would lose the qualification to watch [Great Buddha Communication]. In the past year, rumors have been circulating that Benefactor Chen has fallen into the devil's way and kills people without blinking an eye. If you want to enter the temple, you must first pass the realm of self-examination."

Chen Xian frowned: "Saint Monk Jingming, you also said that it was just a rumor, not something you saw with your own eyes. How can you conclude that I have fallen into the devil's way?"

"Amitabha, there are some things that you cannot believe even if you see them with your own eyes, so I would like to ask Mr. Chen to go through the realm of my heart."

Jingming put his hands together, and golden light spread outward from his body, soon forming a golden glass light that enveloped him. Chen Xian was three meters away from the light, staring at it, the sunlight shining on it, the golden light was dazzling.

Chen Xian snorted in his heart and walked towards the world of questioning the heart.

As soon as I walked into the golden glazed light, the scenery in front of me changed. The original gate of Dajue Temple disappeared, and the group of monks disappeared. Golden clouds were rolling around, and a golden Buddha about a hundred feet tall stood horizontally in front of me. The golden light was so dazzling that it was impossible to look directly at it.

Chen Xian frowned and walked towards the giant Buddha on the golden clouds.

"Chen Xian, you have fallen into the devil's way."

A huge voice rang in my ears.

Chen Xian's eyes were calm. The voice was obviously that of the holy monk Jingming. He had called him Benefactor Chen before, but now he called him by his name when he came to the world of questioning the heart. It was obvious that he wanted to influence him.

"What is a demon?" Chen Xian put his hands behind his back and walked calmly towards the big Buddha.

"Anyone who is cruel and ruthless and kills without blinking an eye is a demon."

"He has no humanity and kills innocent people at will."

"Those who bring disaster to the common people and put them in danger are demons."

"..."

The golden Buddha spoke with a voice so loud that it awe-inspiring.

Chen Xian had no expression on his face and continued walking forward: "How do you determine that I am possessed by a demon?"

"You kill people like crazy and bring disaster to the people. Are you a demon?"

"Hahaha……"

Chen Xian laughed loudly: "Isn't it absurd to conclude that I am possessed by a demon based on just eight words from the holy monk? I have killed people like flies and brought disaster to the people. Holy Monk Jingming, please tell me how Chen has killed people like flies and brought disaster to the people."

"You massacred the Yu family, annihilated the Shatian Pavilion, and killed countless people because of Heiyuan. In many towns in Fengtian Territory and Luozhou Territory, millions of lives were sacrificed because of you, bringing disaster to the people."

"Chen Xian, you have already fallen into the evil path, why don't you surrender?"

The golden Buddha's loud voice continued to attack Chen Xian's psychological defenses.

Chen Xian's face was calm. With the strength of Saint Monk Jingming, the use of the Heart-Searching Realm could not affect him at all. Even if Saint Monk Jingyuan came in person, he could not do it.

Unless the monk Qingyan takes action personally.

"Falling into the devil's way? Obeying the law?" Chen Xian sneered: "Dajue Temple is the orthodox Buddhist sect in the world. Could it be that it is connected with the Yu family and wants to rebel against the court? Or is it your Dajue Temple that is behind the Shatian Pavilion?"

"Chen Xian, you are so outrageous! You are possessed by a demon!"

"Hahaha……"

Chen Xian laughed calmly again: "Saint Monk Jingming, you think you can influence my mood with just a few words? You can't do it?"

"Chen would like to ask you, what is Buddha?"

"What is Buddha?"

"What is Buddha?"

The voice echoed in the world of inquiry, golden clouds and mist rolled, and the great Buddha stood there. After a long while, he spoke: "Don't be attached to external appearances, don't be moved by your inner heart, and realize Nirvana to become a Buddha."

Chen Xian raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Then you are not worthy of being a Buddha."

As his voice fell, the scene in front of him shattered with a loud bang.

The golden Buddha collapsed and the golden clouds also disappeared.

The holy monk Jingming's face flushed red, and he took three steps back and vomited blood. If everyone hadn't supported him, he would have fallen to the ground.

"you you……!"

"Don't move your heart. May I ask if the holy monk Jingming has moved?" Chen Xian took a step forward suddenly, giving people a feeling of an earth-shaking earthquake.

That kind of strong pressure makes people tremble.

"Amitabha!"

Suddenly, a Buddhist chant was heard.

Master Jingyuan appeared outside the temple in a flash and clasped his hands together in front of Chen Xian.

"Donor Chen, I was influenced by rumors and was heartbroken. It has nothing to do with my junior brother. I am here to apologize to you. Please come in."

Jingyuan looked ashamed and his attitude was very humble.

Chen Xian turned his head to look at the holy monk Jingyuan, and walked towards the Dajue Temple: "As an orthodox Buddhist sect, we should not be influenced by other people's words, let alone be controlled by others."

Hearing this, the holy monk Jingyuan smiled bitterly.

He had indeed received a letter from the Tianwu Sect, and he thought that Chen Xian was seriously possessed by a demon. But now, seeing him again, there was no sign of demonic possession at all. Not only that, he had even broken his junior brother's realm of self-examination.

"Junior brother, are you okay?" He looked at Jingming.

Jingming shook his head: "Brother, he is not possessed by a demon."

Jingyuan nodded and walked into the temple.

Jingming and others quickly followed.

Dajue Temple is filled with Buddha statues, pagodas and Buddhist scriptures.

The Main Hall is built at the foot of a mountain and is magnificent and majestic.

There are also temples in the valleys, on the mountains, and on the hillsides.

Chen Xian followed the holy monk Jingyuan into the main hall, sat cross-legged on a cushion, and a young monk served him tea.

"I am bothering you today because of the appointment we made a year ago. If I have offended you in any way, I hope Saint Monk Jingyuan will forgive me." After taking a sip of tea, Chen Xian looked at Saint Monk Jingyuan and said.

"Amitabha, it is I who have been wrong. Donor Chen is not wrong." The holy monk Jingyuan put his hands together and then took out a golden hardcover book from his sleeves. It was written on it: Great Buddha Pass.

"Donor Chen, this is a copy. I have carefully checked it. Please take a look."

Chen Xian clasped his hands together, then stood up, took the copied Great Buddhist Sutra from the holy monk Jingyuan, sat back on the cushion, and began to read it carefully.

"Should have no place to live, but a heart."

Chen Xian pondered the meaning of the first eight words. The Buddhist pursuit is to cultivate the mind, and the first eight words should reflect a state of mind.

Then open the main text.

"All conditioned dharmas are like dream bubbles, dew and electricity, and should be viewed in this way."

Chen Xian frowned as he read the opening verse. Why did these words sound so familiar?

He didn't understand Buddhism and hadn't read the Buddhist scriptures, but he seemed to have heard this sentence in his previous life.

"There is no self, no person, no living being, no life."

"All appearances are false. If you see all appearances that are not true, you will see the Tathagata."

"The sublime Dharma is profound and subtle, and is hard to encounter in a hundred thousand aeons. I now see and hear it and am able to uphold it. I wish to understand the true meaning of the Tathagata..."

Chen Xian raised his head slightly and glanced at the holy monk Jingyuan. This should be the Diamond Sutra.

This old monk took the Diamond Sutra and changed its name to fool him?
Thinking about it carefully, Chen Xian felt that it was unlikely.

Dajue Temple is the orthodox Buddhist temple in the world, with a history of thousands of years. How could it be possible to fool him?

【Diamond Sutra】has been spread here?

The key point is that he felt that the Diamond Sutra was not transmitted completely.

Chen Xian gritted his teeth and continued reading, only to find that it was all based on his personal understanding, a collection of scriptures pieced together from here and there.

Is this the immortal skill [Great Buddha Pass]?
You don’t know until you see it, and it’s better not to see it than to see it.
