C313 Eighteen Bronze Men
Xiao Chen acted as if he didn't notice this change. He looked at Liang Yiyi and continued to talk to her. The more he talked, the more he talked. In Xiao Chen's eyes, this Buddha was no different from an ordinary person.
Buddha also had seven emotions and six desires, but he very hypocritically hid all of them. He did not want to be discovered. It could be said that he was a hypocrite.
Liang Yiyi looked at the changes in the surroundings and immediately reached out to secretly pull the corner of Xiao Chen's clothes. If she allowed Xiao Chen to continue speaking, they would probably be kicked out of the house.
"Forget it, Young Master. I know!"
Liang Yiyi did not dare to speak loudly and could only remind Xiao Chen in a low voice that there was no need to continue.
"Do you really know?" Xiao Chen asked with a smile.
Liang Yiyi nodded frantically.
"Young master, I know!" Liang Yiyi said nervously once again. She looked behind Xiao Chen and saw that the monks in the front hall had already walked out.
The leading abbot was escorted by a large group of monks to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen turned around and just happened to see everyone's eyes on Xiao Chen. Everyone's expression was very ugly. They felt like they were going to eat Xiao Chen.
"How is it? Are these people angry from embarrassment? What is the cultivation of Buddha and heart? With just a few words, his mind was thrown into chaos and he was burning with anger. This kind of person had memorized the scriptures like flowing water. Even if Pu Tan sat down and wore them, it would be useless. They were all superficial things."
Xiao Chen said.
After hearing Xiao Chen's words, everyone felt as if their tails had been stepped on by Xiao Chen. Their expressions became even more unsightly.
"Abbot, this man has humiliated our Buddhism and is spouting nonsense in our land of Buddhism. I suggest we chase this man out of the temple. It's an insult to us."
A man walked out and pointed at Xiao Chen. His face was full of anger as he spoke righteously.
"You're right. We don't need to be polite to people who disrespect our Buddhist Sect." Everyone was talking to each other. They wished they could chase Xiao Chen and the other two out of the temple immediately.
Only the abbot remained silent. The abbot didn't speak. No matter how much they hated Xiao Chen and the other two, there was nothing they could do.
"Amitabha. Patrons, please rest in the room!" The abbot pressed his palms together and gave a Buddhist proclamation.
"Old man, you do have some cultivation!" Xiao Chen looked at the old abbot and sized him up. It was fine if Xiao Chen did not say it, but when he said it, the surrounding people became even more furious. The abbot's concession was not enough for everyone to understand, but Xiao Chen was still so serious that he actually called the abbot that way.
How could the old abbot be guided by a junior like Xiao Chen?
"Get out!"
"Where are the people from Luohan Hall? Seeing these three disrespectful elders and lawless people insulting us, we chase them out." Each and every one of them was filled with righteous indignation.
"Shut up!" At this moment, the old abbot suddenly opened his mouth. "All living beings before Buddha are equal. Everyone has the right to speak." The old abbot said. What Xiao Chen said just now was his freedom. He couldn't stop people from speaking just because they didn't like it. This was against everyone's life.
Xiao Chen and the other two went to the room to rest.
Liang Yiyi patted her chest and panted heavily. "Young master scared me to death just now. I thought they would beat us up for the sake of the supreme elder."
Liang Yiyi looked like she had just survived a disaster. That aura just now really scared Liang Yiyi. Xiao Chen still did not know what to say to himself.
Liang Yiyi thought for a moment and walked in front of Xiao Chen. "Young Master, I keep feeling that this temple is a little simple. We should leave overnight to avoid any trouble." Liang Yiyi looked outside and said vigilantly.
"Even if there is something, we are not afraid. With old servant by our side, everything will be at ease." Xiao Chen said as if he trusted old servant very much.
After resting for the night, early in the morning and still in their dreams, the three of them heard the sound of the bell. The loud and clear bell chimes made their souls tremble.
"Are you going to let me sleep?"
Liang Yiyi said somewhat angrily. Last night, Liang Yiyi was worried that these monks would tamper with their sleep and did not dare to sleep for the entire night. She could not help but sleep. She had just fallen asleep when she heard the sound of the bell.
Coming out of the room, she came to the square in front of the front hall. There was a group of martial monks practicing martial arts.
"Buddhist martial arts emphasises on being fierce and impermanent. These people obtain the essence." From their voices, their feet, and their auras, one could tell how well these people practiced.
"Were the three of them the ones who humiliated us last night?" One of the monks looked at Xiao Chen and the other two and asked the people around him.
Although they were monks, they still came to the front hall to recite scriptures. However, they didn't come often. What Xiao Chen said last night was overheard by these people.
The news about Xiao Chen spread throughout the entire temple overnight.
"Young Master and the others are here!" Liang Yiyi said. She knew that as long as they did not leave, such a thing would definitely happen. Xiao Chen had said those words in front of the Buddha statue. Even she could not tolerate it.
"Were you the ones who humiliated us yesterday?" One of them stepped forward and asked.
"That's right!" Xiao Chen admitted it very frankly. When Xiao Chen admitted it, everyone's eyes changed.
"You have a good tone, sir. As the saying goes, a man with great skills is bold. You just ignore it. I wonder if you can give me a thing or two. " A monk stood out and challenged Xiao Chen. To put it nicely, he actually wanted to teach Xiao Chen a lesson.
Xiao Chen smiled. "Come!" Xiao Chen said casually.
"Please."
The man made a gesture of "please." Then, he took a few steps back and took out his weapon. It was a golden stick. The stick was long and thin. It was very eye-catching.
Xiao Chen, on the other hand, put his sword fingers together.
"Why don't you have a weapon?"
"I have a weapon in my hand, you can do whatever you want!" Xiao Chen said slowly. The people around him all looked angry. They had never seen such a person.
"Shameless boasting, look at the stick!" After saying that, this person raised the long stick in his hand and thrust it at Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen raised his finger and pointed at the tip of the stick.
In an instant, the long staff shattered and a sword light slashed out. The monk in front of them was sent flying and rolled away. A sword wound appeared on his body. Everyone looked at Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen had avoided an important part of his body. Otherwise, this sword strike would have killed him for sure.
Xiao Chen waved his hand gently. "How is it? Who else is not convinced?"
"You are so powerful. In that case, are you interested in challenging my Eighteen Bronze Man Formation?" One of the monks said. The Eighteen Bronze Man Formation was a formation passed down from the Buddhist Plain. It could gather all the strength of eighteen people in one place and then burst out in an instant.
"Why not?"
Xiao Chen took a step forward. The Eighteen Bronze Man Formation was extremely powerful to others, but to Xiao Chen, it was nothing.
Xiao Chen walked to the square. The eighteen monks and eighteen men in front of him let out an angry shout. Golden Buddha light burst out from their bodies. The Buddha light gathered in the sky, and a golden Arhat appeared. The Arhat held a long staff in his hand and smashed it down at Xiao Chen with a furious expression. Xiao Chen smiled. "Rise!"
Xiao Chen raised his left hand, and a ray of golden light also emerged from his body. It was a Vajra. The Vajra held a steel whip and swung it at the arhat.
"Boom!"
With a loud boom, the golden light exploded. It was as if two suns had appeared in the sky, making people unable to look at them closely. The entire world seemed to be golden in color.
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, the long staff was broken. The Vajra raised his steel whip and smashed the Golden Arhat in the sky. The golden light was glaring at Xiao Chen. There were millions of corpses lying on the ground. This was Xiao Chen.
The eighteen bronze men dispersed. Their faces were filled with astonishment, and their eyes were filled with fear. They looked at Xiao Chen, but no one could say anything.
"How is it?" Xiao Chen asked everyone.
"Why do you have a Buddhist martial skill?" One of them asked. He looked at Xiao Chen, who didn't have any Buddhist power or compassion, but how did Xiao Chen do it?0
"One thought to become a devil, one thought to become a Buddha. Both sides of the Buddha and the devil are just the shadows of each other!" Xiao Chen said with a smile.
After defeating the eighteen bronze men, Xiao Chen returned to his room. The news of him defeating the eighteen bronze men immediately spread. The entire temple felt that Xiao Chen was very strange.
The Buddha light from Xiao Chen's body.
"According to the legends, these eighteen bronze men are a slightly powerful formation in the Buddhist Plain. Why can't they last a single round in front of young master?" Liang Yiyi asked curiously.
Looking at Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen didn't even use his full strength. The formation of these eighteen bronze men was broken.
"That's because young master's Six Paths is able to see through all the flaws in his attacks!" old servant said. Xiao Chen must have seen the flaws in the formation of the eighteen bronze men.
"So powerful? Young master, do you want to pass it on to me? I know you will go far away. In that case, leave some things for us!"
"You want to learn? If you learn, you might not be able to leave the Buddhist Plain!" Xiao Chen said. These Six Paths were one of the most profound Cultivation Technique and Martial Skill in Buddhism. It had an extremely strong affinity with Buddha. If one was not careful, one would enter the Buddha Plain. Only people like Xiao Chen would not be affected.
"Then I'll just let it go!"
Liang Yiyi waved her hand. She did not want to become a monk here. If her family found out about it, she would kill herself.
Half a night later, Xiao Chen was meditating. The door was knocked. Xiao Chen went up and opened the door. It was the old abbot standing at the door. "Patron, I wonder if this old monk can come in."
"Come in!"
Xiao Chen said slowly. The old abbot walked in and closed the door behind him.
"Amitabha!"
"You don't have to be like this in front of me. Old monk, why are you here? I have nothing to do with your temple!" Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"I know. I heard that young master defeated my temple's Eighteen Bronze Man Formation in one move."
"Yes. Although this formation isn't bad, it has been through too many years. The essence of it has long disappeared. I dare to say that all the Eighteen Bronze Man Formation in the Buddha Plain is different." Xiao Chen said confidently on this point.
Up until now, the eighteen bronze man formations had become ever-changing. Every single one of them had their own unique characteristics.
"Benefactor, what you said makes sense!" The old abbot nodded. What Xiao Chen said was right. The true Buddhist teachings could no longer be found in the entire Buddhist Plain.
"I dare to ask. Patron, you are using the Six Paths of Buddhism and the Demon Subduing Vajra Seal!" The old abbot asked Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen nodded. The old abbot was right.
He had used the Six Paths of Buddhism to see the flaws, and then used the Demon Subduing Vajra Seal to break through the Eighteen Bronze Man Formation.
