Comprehension Ability: I Forge a Villainous Longevity Family

Chapter 769: Chapter 547: Ci Hong

Chen Zhixing felt nothing toward these newly emerged younger generations, neither goodwill nor ill will.

There was no concept of wanting to mentor outstanding juniors, nor the idea of wanting to crush these younger ones.

Even when he first returned to the Celestial Profound Realm and encountered the only monk among the Three Madmen, Seventh Young Master, 28 Constellations Cultivators, and 96 Heroes, Chen Zhixing merely glanced at him and directly tore through space to leave.

This action caused the monk from Mojie Temple, who intended to come forward and pay respects upon seeing Chen Zhixing, to pause, and his hands, which were clasped in greeting, subconsciously relaxed.

In front of the Void Rift.

"Was that Demon Venerable just now? Did he actually return to the Celestial Profound Realm?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? That’s the Star Venerable. I advise you not to get the name wrong!"

"Look, Ci Hong monk was ignored. His Majesty Star Venerable couldn’t even be bothered with him. Despite his previous boasts that if he had been born twenty years earlier, he could compete with the Star Venerable, now seeing him in person, Star Venerable couldn’t even be bothered with him."

"Shh, stop talking. Are you not afraid to mention the Star Venerable’s name in the Southern Domain!"

"Uh...I was just talking about, just mentioning the Star Venerable’s name, I didn’t mean anything by it. His Majesty Star Venerable probably wouldn’t care about that, right?"

"I don’t know, but I do know you’re in trouble now."

"In trouble?"

With a look of confusion, the person suddenly felt a lightness in his body, and before he could react, he plopped into the river with a splash.

"Poof!" As the person finally struggled out of the river, climbing onto the shore all wet, he couldn’t help but shout at the crowd, "Who the hell ambushed me? If you’ve got guts, come out and let’s fight fair and square, attacking in the dark is no real skill!"

The crowd who had been queuing in front of the Void Rift retreated far away, leaving only a young monk with red lips and white teeth standing still, clasping his hands in a peaceful gesture.

"Amitabha Buddha, I see that the benefactor is entangled with evil spirits, and when returning to dreams at midnight, grievances may come seeking revenge. Given how difficult life is for the benefactor, it might be better if Ci Hong releases you from this hardship."

Without waiting for the person to refuse, the Ci Hong, whose whole body was glowing with golden light, extended a hand towards him, and repeatedly struck downward with his palm.

In the next moment.

All that remained was a shattered mass of flesh in a ten-meter large palm print, still retaining traces of the person who had just existed.

And Ci Hong, who had just killed him, now sat cross-legged by the palm print, chanting the Sutra of Rebirth in the Pure Land.

...

In the Celestial Profound Realm, monks are not to be trifled with.

Of course, those difficult to provoke are only the martial monks who travel alone. These individuals are often selected as walkers in the Mortal World by the grand temple, champions whether in strength or disposition among thousands in the temple.

Indeed, in the Celestial Profound Realm, monks aren’t restricted from killing. If such a claim existed, monks couldn’t survive in Celestial Profound Realm at all.

They not only kill but have a serious inclination towards killing.

However, compared to ordinary sect cultivators, monks from grand temples will issue a warning before killing, and following a killing, they would use the Sutra of Rebirth in the Pure Land to enlighten those they’ve killed. It is rumored that if the dying are fortunate enough to have the Great Power in the Buddhist Sect recite the sutra for them, they could transcend cultivation essence and directly drift into the Spirit Realm after death.

Most cultivators do not believe in this point, but the wealthy among mortals are willing to put faith in it.

Perhaps it’s a form of psychological solace?

Who knows.

In fact, Ci Hong monk himself does not believe those he enlightened are qualified to enter the Spirit Realm because he is a martial monk from Mojie Temple, which has a complete Longevity Realm heritage. It is clearly recorded in the heritage that one must cultivate to the True Self Realm to have a slight chance of their True Spirit not perishing and entering the Spirit Realm after death.

It is only a possibility, not a certainty.

Or to say, besides the great cultivators of the Longevity Realm, none can guarantee their True Spirit will enter the Spirit Realm after death.

However, Ci Hong knows one thing: that the Sutra of Rebirth in the Pure Land from their Buddhist Sect genuinely increases the possibility of entering the Spirit Realm, though it isn’t as exaggerated as most monks claim, it does have some effect.

This is primarily because their World-Honored One in the Buddhist Sect is indeed a Buddha of the Fifteenth Sequence in the Spirit Realm. Part of his control includes the laws of reincarnation and rebirth.

After finishing the mourning for the cultivator just tragically killed by his hand on site, Ci Hong stood up, bowed to the deceased, and no longer thought about stepping into the Void Rift to travel to the Cosmic World, instead moving away step by step in the complete opposite direction.

He did indeed say he wished he had been born twenty years earlier to compete with the Demon Venerable.

Only ordinary people often take things out of context, never hearing the full tale.

"The monk has led a futile life, three years old enlightened, five years old practicing breath, entered Divine Travel at fifteen, True Self at nineteen, now twenty-seven, Nirvana has reached a small stage, invincible among his generation in the temple. As he gradually steps out of the temple to meet heroes worldwide, and walks to East Profound and ascends there, questioning the world, with Immortal Venerable ascending, roaming the world for two thousand years, with a mind yearning for such magnificence, then passing Jiangzhou, learning about the Chen surnamed demon called Demon Venerable, who once caused a massive karmic force of Futu, feelings of fear arise, only hating the monk wasn’t born twenty years earlier to contend with the demon in East Profound before his rise, to prevent endless karmic sins, if such were possible, the merit might allow the monk’s cultivation to reach completion this life, and ascend to the pure celestial realm!"
