We said we would experience life, fairy, how did you become real?.

Chapter 226 At that time, you will become a Buddha revered throughout the entire Western Regions (4000 words, Chapter 2, Part 1)

At dawn, the rosy dawn broke through the evening clouds, and the clouds in the east turned grayish-white, gradually thinning to reveal a line of pale blue sky.

Rain-soaked leaves lay scattered on the damp earth, water droplets dripping from their tips into puddles with soft thuds. The distant mountains were still shrouded in mist, their outlines blurred, appearing only as varying shades of gray.

Water dripped intermittently from the eaves of the dilapidated temple, splashing tiny droplets on the blue stone steps. The air was filled with the scent of earth and grass, and a cool breeze gently wafted through the air.

The temple gates opened, and Xiao Mo looked up at the sky. A faint golden light shone through the gaps in the clouds, casting slanted rays on the wet ground and creating some blurry patches of light.

Inside the temple.

Wang Xin raised his head, looking at the smiling Maitreya Buddha sitting in the middle, and at the fierce-looking Dharma Protector Weituo beside him.

Ever since Xiao Mo killed those bandits with a single blow last night, Wang Xin has been standing in front of the Buddha statue.

The girl's eyes were still clear, but a hint of confusion seemed to have flashed across them.

When they saw the sunlight outside the temple, Han Zi and her family finally came to their senses after what had happened the night before.

Han Zi glanced at the rubble floor of the temple. If it weren't for the bloodstains on it, he would have thought that last night was just a dream.

Even though Xiao Mo saved her family, Han Zi felt more fear than gratitude towards him.

The moment he drew his sword, the murderous aura emanating from him made him doubt whether he himself would be cut down.

Moreover, Han Zi felt that he saved her simply because it was a favor.

It seems that the young master's real purpose in killing those bandits was not to save his own group at all.

The life or death of this young man seemed to be less important to him than a single finger of this female monk.

Xiao Mo took a step out of the temple, holding the knife. His feet stepped into the shallow puddle, splashing water everywhere.

Wang Xin withdrew her gaze from the Buddha statue and followed Xiao Mo back to his side.

"Young Master Xiao, may we travel with you?"

“Young Master Xiao, I can afford it, I won’t trouble you for nothing.”

"Young Master Xiao"

After Han Zi realized what was happening, he quickly ran forward and shouted, wanting to travel with the other person.

But Xiao Mo walked forward without looking back, completely ignoring him.

As they walked down the mountain, Xiao Mo and Wang Xin seemed to have returned to the state of relative silence they had at the beginning.

The girl seemed to have something on her mind, and kept her head down.

Xiao Mo ignored her.

Buddhism is not merely confined to scriptures.

Kongnian Temple sent her down the mountain to gain experience, which was also a way for her to examine her heart and seek the truth.

If she can understand this, then her understanding of Buddhism will reach a higher level.

If she can't figure it out.
All I can say is that she's probably nothing special after all.

However, after killing those bandits yesterday, Xiao Mo did feel that his body was not quite right.

During this period of time, Xiao Mo has killed far too many people.

After all 4,563 cultivators of the Wangchuan Sect died at Xiao Mo's hands, the bloodthirsty energy within Xiao Mo's body was nearing the limit of his control.

Logically speaking, Xiao Mo does need to recuperate properly and suppress the bloodthirsty energy within his body first.

However, along the way, Xiao Mo killed quite a few cultivators.

The bloodthirsty energy within his body grew increasingly intense.

Those bandits were like the last straw that broke the camel's back, causing the bloodthirsty aura to seem to be spiraling out of control.

Xiao Mo felt that it was precisely because his spirit and will were extraordinary.

Otherwise, if Xue Kui knew that he had killed more than four thousand cultivators in a single day while using the Heaven and Earth Crimson, and had killed many more in recent days, he would definitely call himself a madman.

Three days later.

As Xiao Mo and Jiang Xin continued walking towards the Black Dragon Sect...

Xiao Mo and Wang Xin's minds went blank.

Immediately afterwards, three Nascent Soul Realm cultivators leaped out from the mountains and surrounded Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo simply struck once, and the three cultivators were instantly annihilated, showing absolutely no mercy.

However, the assassination attempt on Xiao Mo by these three cultivators was just the beginning.

After that, more and more cultivators attacked Xiao Mo.

Some were lurking in the mountains and forests, setting up magic arrays in the direction Xiao Mo was heading.

Some hid in the rivers, waiting for Xiao Mo to cross before suddenly emerging from the riverbed.

Some disguised themselves as ordinary roadside vendors and poisoned Xiao Mo.

Others pretended to be lost girls in the mountains, seducing Xiao Mo with their charms, thinking that once Xiao Mo lowered his guard, they would unlock their cultivation levels and kill him with a single blow.

But how could Xiao Mo possibly give them that chance?

If Xiao Mo were truly so easily fooled, he would have been lured into the room by those female disciples of Wanhua Peak countless times.

Moreover, in order to prevent her senior brother from falling victim to the poisonous hands of those female disciples of Wanhua Peak, Yu Yunwei often whispered some "green tea tactics" in Xiao Mo's ear to give him a heads-up.

Therefore, none of these cultivators succeeded and all died under Xiao Mo's Spirit-Gathering Blade.

Before killing them, Xiao Mo would search their souls.

From their memories, we can roughly understand why they killed themselves.

Some of the cultivators were members of assassin organizations who had been paid to kill them.

Although Xiao Mo couldn't find out who the employer was from the assassins' memories, he could guess that it was nothing more than a candidate for the Holy Son of the Myriad Paths Sect.

They didn't dare confront him directly, so they paid someone to kill him.

Logically speaking, the wealth possessed by those candidates for the Holy Son should not be enough to persuade a Nascent Soul cultivator to risk their life.

It's likely that the elders behind these candidates for Holy Sons intervened on their behalf.

But this is normal.

Once the ten candidates for Holy Son are selected, in addition to their original masters, many hall masters and peak masters of the Myriad Paths Sect will place bets.

It wasn't that no one wanted to bet on Xiao Mo, but Xue Kui rejected them all.

They're placing their bets because they expect to repay favors and get a share of the profits in the future.

But once I become the sect leader of the Myriad Paths Sect, I will thoroughly cleanse the sect.

"fine."

After searching the assassin's soul, Xiao Mo beheaded him with a single stroke.

After I return to my sect, I will have Xue Kui investigate and settle accounts with these elders and peak masters one by one.

However, besides these assassins, there were also some cultivators who came to seek revenge on Xiao Mo.

Because Xiao Mo had concealed his cultivation level along the way, he attracted the attention of many cultivators who wanted to ambush him.

Most of those cultivators were killed by Xiao Mo.

Sometimes Xiao Mo would leave one or two survivors, cripple their cultivation, and send them back to their sect to report the news.

Xiao Mo was just waiting for those sects to come looking for revenge so he could test his skills and try to break through his cultivation level.

Since their own disciple had died, in order to maintain the reputation of their sect, they would naturally seek revenge on Xiao Mo.

Otherwise, if your sect's disciples are killed and humiliated at will, where is the sect's dignity?

If you can't even protect your own disciples, who will want to rely on you in the future?
Ironically, many sects failed to ascertain the true identity of the man who killed their disciples.

They didn't even know Xiao Mo's true cultivation level; they only thought he was a cultivator below the Dragon Gate Realm. As more and more people from these sects died, and even Nascent Soul Realm elders perished, they realized they had messed with someone tough, and they all pretended to be deaf and dumb.

Besides those who came to kill Xiao Mo, many others came to kill Wang Xin.

After news of Wangxin leaving Kongnian Temple to travel the mortal world spread, more and more demonic sects came to eliminate him.

I don't know where they got this information from, but quite a few people know that Wangxin is a heart with seven orifices and exquisite features.

Let's not even talk about how detrimental it would be to the demonic path if Wang Xin, with her seven-aperture exquisite heart, were to grow up.

Most importantly, refining pills with the Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart is extremely beneficial for cultivators in the Jade Purity Realm to break through to the Immortal Realm!

However, when they appeared in front of Xiao Mo, and Xiao Mo drew the Soul-Gathering Blade from his hand, it was too late for them to regret it.

If these demonic sects are relatively close to him, Xiao Mo will even go out of his way to "challenge" them.

Xiao Mo's "challenge" usually means annihilation of the entire family.

Each time Xiao Mo destroys a demonic sect, the bloodthirsty energy within him becomes increasingly concentrated, and his cultivation level rises to a higher level.

However, Xiao Mo's erosion by the bloodthirsty aura became increasingly severe.

Along the way, Xiao Mo had lost count of how many people he had killed.

"Xiao Mo of the Myriad Paths Sect killed a Jade Purity Realm cultivator while only at the Nascent Soul Real

"Xiao Mo of the Wandao Sect slaughtered the entire sect."

"A madman even more insane than Blood Demon."

Xiao Mo's reputation seems to be growing.

Gradually, many of the assassin organizations that had taken on the job gave up on assassinating Xiao Mo.

No cultivator at the Jade Purity Realm could defeat Xiao Mo. Some Jade Purity Realm cultivators were even unable to escape and were cut down by Xiao Mo with a single strike.

As for sending cultivators at the Immortal Realm, there aren't that many Immortal Realm cultivators available; most sect leaders are only at the Jade Purity Realm.

And what if Xue Kui is protecting Xiao Mo from the side?
Even immortals lacked the confidence to withstand Xue Kui's Blood Blade.

However, on his way to the Black Dragon Sect, Xiao Mo was also searching for the whereabouts of the other holy sons of the Myriad Paths Sect in various intelligence organizations in the Western Regions.

Xiao Mo killed two candidates for Holy Son on the way.

Three months have passed.

One morning, when Xiao Mo was practicing his internal energy cultivation, he suddenly opened his eyes, and a violent surge of blood energy rippled through his body.

The bloodthirsty aura seemed to solidify, as if it were dressing Xiao Mo in a blood-red trench coat.

Xiao Mo's scarlet eyes shifted constantly between reason and madness.

"Xiao Mo."

Wangxin, who had just returned from picking fruit, was so frightened by Xiao Mo's appearance that she dropped the fruit and ran over immediately.

"do not come!"

Xiao Mo roared at Wang Xin.

He was breathing heavily, his hands clenched into fists.

Sweat had soaked his temples, and the Soul-Gathering Blade beside him was gradually unsheathed due to the killing intent emanating from Xiao Mo, revealing half of its bright blade!
Beneath Xiao Mo's skin, one could even see red blood flowing through dark blue veins.

But seeing his pained expression, how could Wang Xin just stand there blankly?

Ignoring Xiao Mo's reprimand, Wang Xin stepped out again from under his monk's robe, sat down in front of Xiao Mo, and tightly grasped his calloused hand.

The moment Wangxin touched Xiao Mo, the bloodthirsty aura surged towards her body like a tidal wave, eroding her mind, spiritual veins, and bones.

"It hurts."

Wang Xin pursed her thin lips tightly, feeling as if her body was being cut piece by piece by a knife from the inside out.

Despite the pain, she chanted Buddhist scriptures.

One verse after another was recited from Wangxin's lips.

The bloodthirsty aura surrounding Xiao Mo was gradually dispelled, or transferred to Wang Xin's body, where Wang Xin used his own Buddhist nature to suppress and digest the aura within Xiao Mo's body.

After an incense stick had burned, Xiao Mo's bloodthirsty aura gradually subsided, and Wang Xin's palms were covered in fine sweat.

Xiao Mo opened his eyes again.

"How are you?" Wang Xin asked worriedly. "Are you alright?"

"I told you not to come any closer," Xiao Mo said coldly.

“But you are in so much pain.” Wang Xin lowered her head, her expression full of self-reproach.

"I can handle this myself." Xiao Mo's voice was almost accusatory.

"I'm so sorry. Please don't be angry, okay?"

Wang Xin gently tugged at Xiao Mo's sleeve.

Looking into Wang Xin's self-reproachful eyes, Xiao Mo sighed and shook his head:
"Forget your mind. When you practice Buddhism, you need to understand your true nature."

My bloodthirsty aura is nothing short of a deadly poison to you Buddhist disciples.

Your realm of understanding, the clarity of your heart, could very well be destroyed by my bloodthirsty aura.

"You used your own body to eliminate the bloodthirsty energy within me, didn't you think about these things?"

“Xiao Mo, I’ve actually thought about it,” Wang Xin said earnestly, “but Xiao Mo, I’m more afraid something might happen to you.”

"."

"Xiao Mo, you really can't kill anymore during this period." Wang Xin's tone was almost pleading. "Your body is really at its limit. If this continues, you will lose control."

"limit?"

Xiao Mo paused for a moment, then smiled and said.

"This is how I've cultivated all these years. If I can't even get past this hurdle, then this is the end. Besides, do you think that just because I don't kill, others won't kill me?"

Xiao Mo released Wang Xin's fair hand and said coldly:
"In the Western Regions, there is only life and death."

I have killed far too many cultivators, and more and more people are eyeing me, all wanting to kill me.

But I don't regret it.

What I need to do is keep killing!

I'll kill them all until no one dares to bother me anymore.

I will kill until everyone trembles at the mere mention of my name.

Everything I said was like a divine decree to them.

Only then will they realize—oh, so there are rules in the Western Regions too.”

Xiao Mo calmly looked at the girl in front of him: "You want me not to kill them? Then Wang Xin, let me ask you, unless they are dead, they will come looking for me again and again. Will you help me kill them?"

Forget Heart: "."

Xiao Mo gripped her long sword, stood up, and walked step by step out of the cave, crushing the fruit she had just picked beneath her feet.

"Wang Xin, stop following me."

My demonic nature has taken hold; I am powerless to turn back, nor do I wish to.

I will become a demon feared throughout the entire Western Regions.

Until then.

You will then become a Buddha revered throughout the entire Western Regions.
