Invasion Myth: Starting with the Schoolteacher

Chapter 348 I'm Grinding Reputation in the Underworld

I am grateful for my naivety and kindness back then, which ultimately gave me a chance.

After Xu Xuan learned about the core area of ​​the City of the Dead from Zhang San, he devised a simple and brutal plan.

That is to make a high-profile incursion into the heart of the enemy's territory and then proceed to the sealed-off Jizo Temple.

He had a feeling that what he wanted would be there.

As for the Ghost General stationed there
Killing such a being would not attract the attention of my senior brother; on the contrary, it would first attract the attention of the Black Mountain Demon.

Our Buddhist community has its own methods.

Therefore, in order to gain trust, one must break the precept against verbal misconduct once and for all.

Amitabha.

With his hands clasped together, Xu Xuan's reputation in the City of the Wrongfully Dead had already reached Revered after the red light shone brightly in the main hall.

All the ghosts felt in their hearts:
It is truly fitting that a wicked person like you should die at the hands of Buddhism.

Or rather, it takes skill to escape and have one's soul reach the underworld.

Jiao Guiying unconsciously sat up straight, feeling that it was somewhat disrespectful to be crooked in front of such a top talent in the demonic path.

However, she was also curious about how one could acquire such karmic power.

I didn't mean anything by it, I just wanted to learn more about the background.

If this demonic monk were to join the Black Mountain faction, he would at least be on the same level as himself.

Mr. Xu feigned compassion and sympathy.

"There are always some people in the orthodox Buddhist tradition who think a little too much, act a little too ruthlessly, and are a little too kind-hearted. That's all."

What a wicked and demonic monk's behavior!
In the cultivation world, regardless of good or evil, the more someone pretends to be something they are, the more powerful they are.

The general seemed to understand but not quite, and became even more curious. Could it be that the high monks had suppressed him because of the excessive killing?

"Killing? Human lives?"

"Not many, about ten thousand."

Including Guo Bei's, it's about 30,000. I won't say the exact number, in case the other side doesn't believe me.

Even with such humility, the ghost in the room still overreacted.

hiss~~~
The yin energy surged back, and all the ghosts felt a chill run through their bodies.

None of the people present had committed such a major crime in their lifetime, nor had they killed so many ghosts after their deaths.

I am filled with awe and respect. My reputation is skyrocketing.

Zhang Hua and Zhu Yingtai chuckled inwardly; these little devils were so easily fooled, believing such things.

At the same time, I admire Master Xu's ability to spout nonsense; he can tell lies so easily.

Is it really possible to practice Buddhism like this?
Little did they know that the two of them were the ones who were ignorant. Everyone in the General's Hall was a fierce and ruthless demon, known for killing without hesitation.

But their claim of ruthless killing is an exaggerated metaphor, and someone...
In any case, after seeing that karma, the ghost heroes had no choice but to believe it.

The Ghost General's eyes lit up, and he said with some regret:
"No wonder you ended up in the underworld; it seems the human world can't accommodate you."

Xu Xuan frowned, indicating that a mere ten thousand people was a trivial matter, and Buddhist monks would not break their vow of non-violence for such a thing.

Is this a small matter?

Tell me what momentous event has broadened the horizons of the ghosts of the City of the Wrongfully Dead.

"It's most likely because it usurped Buddhist teachings and severed the lineage of other sects."

After Xu Xuan died, he also pondered it for a while.

Although the dragon that killed him was controlled by the Heavenly Tribulation, his words of conversion were not false.

This illustrates that human life is important, yet not that important, in the eyes of the gods and Buddhas in heaven.

Therefore, the real intention to kill still lies in one's own Buddhist teachings.

Seriously, Zen Buddhism, huh?

All prajna wisdom arises from one's own nature and does not enter from outside. If one recognizes one's own nature...

I suddenly realized that thought itself is Buddha, so why can't it be tolerated?

The demonic monk spoke casually, but the outside world reacted strongly.

The junior leaders don't understand the value of money, but the old hands know it all too well.

Bang!

The Ghost General could no longer sit still; he was even somewhat at a loss.

"It's not that your current cultivation level is only at the second realm, how dare you do such a big thing?" He immediately wished he could invite this important figure to take a seat of honor.

If it weren't for the absence of immortals and gods, even Lord Black Mountain would have to give way to such a ruthless person.

That was a top-tier power that spanned the three realms; back then, even the monks in the underworld were superior to them.

Even if a Bodhisattva disappears, they can still act like a demon.
He really deserved to die. Reputation +10086
"Cough cough~~~"

General Jiao hadn't felt thirsty in so many years, but suddenly felt like coughing a couple of times to relieve his emotions.

She ended up losing her voice a little, and admitted that she was a bit scared.

There is also a Ksitigarbha Hall in the City of the Wrongfully Dead.

I was hesitant to ask any further questions, so let's talk about the treasure.

He lowered his voice slightly and asked softly:
"Let's get back to business. What treasure do you want to present?"

Xu Xuan understood that this was the first step in establishing a solid persona; the next step was to win the other party's favor.

"The first piece."

Lifting the red veil from the wedding-dressed female ghost beside him,

Her face remained deathly pale, her eyes lifeless, and her lips crimson—a perfect filter for the underworld.

Although Zhu Yingtai was somewhat afraid of venturing into dangerous territory, she was also eager to try.

She's an incredibly brave and somewhat chivalrous woman, the kind who could easily get along with Xiaoqing.

The real trouble was convincing her to wear wedding makeup; her love of beauty was preventing this grotesque look.

Ultimately, after being told to just bear with it a little longer, and that they would try to help him escape from home after he came back to life, he finally agreed.

The Ghost General examined it carefully and was very satisfied.

Although the birth dates don't match, the yang energy hasn't dissipated, so it's still usable, and the master should be happy.

Moreover, the method to bypass the gates of hell is...
"The work of the Yin-Yang Dharma King."

If it were that powerful figure in the demonic path, it would be normal.

The Yin-Yang Dharma King and his Dharma Realm span two realms, and their forms are very unique.

They can enter the mortal realm at special times, or possess the body of a mortal and simply walk around outside.

Lord Black Mountain had long coveted that place, but the relationship between the two powerful figures in the demonic path was very poor.

So this gift was truly thoughtful.

"The second one."

Zhang Hua took out the Nanming Yehuo Sword and blinded the Ghost General's eyes once again.

How could there be such an absurd operation as the transformation of karmic fire into form, and even be fixed in the state of a divine weapon?

He was overjoyed; the material alone was truly exceptional.

Just as she needed to protect herself from the bald monks who would come to slaughter her from time to time, this divine weapon pleased her even more than the woman herself.

But she didn't dare to accept it.

Just getting close gives me a premonition of being burned to ashes, so I'll put it aside for now.

She was more curious about the third item.

"The third thing is the Buddha's teachings."

Buddhism?

The ghosts were shocked again, wondering what was so good about this ghostly thing.

“If my Buddhist teachings were not good, then the high monk would not have killed me.”

The ghosts felt as if a hundred claws were scratching at their hearts; they cried out, "Tell me if it's good or not!"

Zhang San suddenly jumped out to play the straight man at this moment.

They directly asked what kind of evil Buddhist practice had led a high-ranking monk in the human world to take such ruthless action.

"Good question."

"This humble monk cultivates a method that goes against the Buddha's teachings. If one achieves a minor success, one will not be disturbed by the Buddha's light; if one achieves a major success, one can refuse the Buddha's teachings and salvation."

The Ghost General was shocked. If it was really that outrageous, wouldn't the monk Ruoxu, who came here from time to time, be in trouble?

Let me explain in detail!
