Yuecha started to make the final speech.

“I now announce, from today onward, Buddhism will be officially established!”

All of the monks put their palms together. “Amitabha.”

“Ha-ha-ha, ha-ha-ha…”

Along with a burst of wild laughter, hundreds of black shadows suddenly rushed out violently. Instantly, there were dark clouds everywhere. A dark pressure weighed on them. It was terrifying.

Although Big Lord Demon had lost a lot of weight, his laughter was still quite powerful, exuding a powerful Qi. He scoffed coldly, “Buddhism’s established? What a funny thought. I, Big Lord Demon, shall be the first to disagree!”

“It’s the demons!”

“The demons came! I knew they’d come to cause trouble!”

“This is the Big Lord Demon of the demons? His size is different from what I expected.”

The crowd was shocked. They looked up at the sky uneasily. They staggered backward to keep a safe distance.

Yuecha’s face sank. “Be ready to welcome the demons!”

“Amitabha!”

Many of the monks instantly rose into the sky. They remained formal with a golden glow all over, repressing the world with their glow as if facing their greatest enemy.

There were more monks than demons. Instantly, the demons were outnumbered and surrounded.

Yuecha remained calm as she glared at Big Lord Demon. She said in a low voice, “Today’s our ceremony, we don’t wish to kill. Please, leave. If not, don’t blame me if I get involved!”

She did not want to fight today. They were at temple gates. Killing here would affect their cultivation.

“You want to intimidate me? Ha-ha-ha, you’re not awake yet! You bunch of Buddhists are fake people! How dare you host such a big ceremony! What a joke!” Big Lord Demon looked at Yuecha mockingly. He took out a crystal ball and made a gesture. Instantly, there was a glow all over as a phantom appeared in the sky.

“Today, I’ll show you all the true color of Buddhism!”

In the next moment, the glow transformed into a projection. The main character was Yuecha.

The projected Yuecha was very different from the current Yuecha. She was dressed in black leather and had a cold face. She even looked violent with no hint of emotion. She was mass killing!

It merely took a while before a lot of lives were taken away by her. The entire scene was too violent to watch with countless lives getting hurt.

Other than her, there were many other demons in the world.

There was a change in the scene, and Yuecha was seen seducing the ordinary people with demonic spirits everywhere. She was so oppressive while forcing the people to join the demons.

“De—demons?”

“Oh, god! Tara Yuecha used to be a demon?”

“This…how’s that possible?!”

“She’s such a big demon and yet she established Buddhism. What religion is this?”

Apart from the others, Li Nianfan was similarly shocked. Although he knew Yuecha was a demon in the past, he did not expect her to be so violent. She killed countless lives!

No wonder they said that Immortals and Demons were not to be one. Every sect wanted to join forces to seal the demons away. This meant that they had caused a lot of harm in the past!

As for those monks, their faces changed. They all stared at the projection with wide eyes. They could not believe that was their Tara Yuecha. They felt like collapsing!

Many monks even grew demons in their hearts. Their eyes went blank and they started walking around like zombies. They started walking around blankly, doubting lives.

“Yuecha was a demon of my kind. She led the demons and attacked the ordinary realm three times. Finally, she was sealed inside the Azure Ville!” Big Demon King walked over arrogantly, accusing Yuecha of her crimes. “She committed many crimes and treated humans like grass. Not even like a pig or dog! What right does she have to live in the world? Today, I, Big Demon King, am going to kill this mega demon for the sake of everyone!”

The crowd listened and nodded in agreement. However, they felt that something was not right.

“Indeed, I have sinned in the past.”

Yuecha had her palms facing one another. She closed her eyes and said eventually, “Once Buddhism’s established, I’ll finish my deed. I’ll wait for my punishment and reincarnate a hundred times to become a Buddha to pay my debt from the last generation.”

“Ha-ha, only in the past?” Big Demon King laughed again, “Everyone, I’ll show you what Buddhism’s currently doing!” He waved and the scene changed again!

LI Nianfan squinted. The person shown was someone familiar to him. It was Yun Yiyi.

Compared to the past, her cultivation seemed to have improved a lot. Around her, there was red and black mist circling her as if there were two streams. The crossing of two streams gave one the feeling of an evil and wicked temperament.

She was standing before a village. Her red dress was covered in fresh blood. On her face, there were bloodstains all over. Her face was extremely cold and her eyes full of violence like a beast. Whether she was meeting an ordinary man or a cultivator, she would attack them no matter what.

In the blink of an eye, the village had been turned into hell.

“This woman’s Yun Yiyi, and she’s a Buddhist. Everyone, look at what she’s doing?” Big Lord Demon scoffed painfully. “She’s already destroyed three major Sects. Even the cities related to the Sects couldn’t escape from her murderous knives. She’s killing everyone heartlessly. She’s inhuman!”

After Yun Yiyi left, a monk with his palms pressed together walked out quietly. He was on his knees, using his body to suck in the souls that were mourning. It was the exchange between a darkened wind and a Buddhist glow.

Jiese’s face was twitching. Inside his body, there seemed to be countless living things trying to come out. They were bulging from his body. One could only see how much he was hurting.

“Waa…” Nanan and Dragin cried. “Brother, we should’ve helped Sister Yun back then.”

The Fire Phoenix said, “An outsider cannot help in this matter unless someone can turn back time to stop this tragedy from happening.”

Li Nianfan nodded and sighed. “Or perhaps we could wipe out Yun Yiyi’s memory, make her forget the hatred. That’s even more violent!”

He frowned slightly. Weighing the causes and effects, he soon realized the key.

The lotus was indeed a demonic item. It affected Yun Yiyi’s rationality. Yun Yiyi’s family was framed and killed by the demons. The goal was to make Yun Yiyi demonic. Jiese would become unlucky as a result.

This was the first time he experienced danger in this cultivating realm. The demons had too many plots, playing with their chess pieces. How terrifying!

The demons were not only cruel, they even attacked Buddhism. They even knew about attacking one’s heart. He had made adequate preparation for this day!

He could not help sighing. “So…this is a plot of the demons.”

The projection vanished. Big Lord Demon smiled mockingly and said, “Did you see? That was a Buddhist monk!”

Silence. Many of the monks had nothing to say. They clasped their palms together and prayed in deep pain.

Big Lord Demon said, “If you’re not a monk, I’ll be kind and let you off. Go to the side!”

Instantly, most of the cultivators hid away.

Big Demon Lord was paying close attention to Li Nianfan. Seeing that this Deluxe Merit Saint did not move, he frowned. He could not help reminding the other demons, “The Deluxe Merit Saint’s over there. Never go near him. Stay away from him as far as possible. Don’t use the group attack. If we touch any part of him, we’ll be dead!”

With that said, he scoffed, “Small ones, kill them all!”

Vroom!

Instantly, Demon Qi rushed into the sky. In the sky, a mask of a black ghost was formed. Its mouth was open as if it was ready to eat up the entire Buddhism religion in the next instance.

The faces of many monks turned pale. They staggered backward in fear.

They had lost their calm a long time ago. By then, they were on the verge of collapsing. They did not even have the heart to resist. They were perplexed and terrified.

Buddhism was probably going to be established the same day it ended.

Xiao Chengfeng tightened his grip on the longsword in his hand. He was waiting for instructions. He asked, “Mr. Li, what do we do?”

Li Nianfan sighed hopelessly. “It seems that there’s no choice but to get involved.”

The demons were everywhere. They had to stop the demons no matter what.

“Wait, you all must protect me,” he reminded the crowd with a worried tone. After all, he could get hurt and killed.

In the next moment, the Deluxe Merit Cloud gradually helped him rise up. The golden glow around him was enhanced. He had turned into a golden man.

The golden glow was too thick, spreading out almost everywhere. The world had turned into a golden swirl. However, it did not stop. The golden glow was still swirling and formed a pillar that rose into the sky. The surrounding mountains had turned into gold. Everything was transformed into a golden ocean.

Everyone, including Ziye and the rest, was stunned.

Although they knew Li Nianfan was a Deluxe Merit Saint, they did not expect his Deluxe Merit to be so powerful.

Too much, too thick!

The thickness of this Deluxe Merit was beyond anyone’s level. It was extremely terrifying.

Even a simple glance of it was able to terrify everyone. Everyone felt like running away.

The crowd did not dare to breathe. They were scared that a slight breath that accidentally blew against the Deluxe Merit Saint’s hair would get them killed!

Big Lord Demon was stunned. His mouth had formed an ‘O’ shape. He turned into a sculpture, trembling. He was in despair.

Li Nianfan unleashed all of his power. He formed a path with his Deluxe Merit, making way for the rest to escape.

He scoffed with justice, “Stop it!”

…

At the same time, at the peak of a mountain.

The Xingyue Sect was covered in blood. There were dead bodies everywhere. It was a cruel sight.

Jiese knelt in the center of it all. The blood had tainted his robes. Souls were struggling everywhere. Just like the ripples, they were sucked into his body.

“Hmph!”

He groaned and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. He had bloody tears coming out of his eyes.

If one were to get closer to him, one could hear the howling of souls coming from within his body. Constantly hearing those howls would turn one crazy!

Jiese’s body was scrawny. He stood up and staggered as if he was thoroughly harmed.

On his chest, the statue of the golden Buddha was glowing. There was a Buddha’s glow coming out from his body.

If it was not for this Buddha statue, he would not have made it this far. He would have died a long time ago.

Meanwhile, a gust of wind blew by.

A red figure gradually walked out. Her eyelids were as still as water. She looked at Jiese and said, “Jiese, if you can suck in people’s souls, return the souls of those who killed my Yun family back to me!”
