Invasion Myth: Starting with the Schoolteacher

Chapter 756 Junior Brother Gets Bullied Again

Otherwise, he would really like to see how the Mirror of Retribution would reflect his sins.

"And now, things have turned out this way. I traveled all the way to Jambudvipa, willingly jumping into the Avici Hell, only to find myself in grave danger..."

While enduring the relentless torture, he frantically searched for a way to escape.

If he were truly trapped here and never be able to ascend, that would be a huge joke—the dignified head of Baoan Hall, a "high monk" of the Pure Land School, and a "successor" of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, would be devoured by his own sins and become a prisoner of the Avici Hell.
His eyes flickered as he quickly weighed his options.

Using the Ksitigarbha Sutra to prove that he is a descendant of Ksitigarbha?
"What kind of monster is this?!"

A thunderous roar shattered the demonic flames surrounding Xu Xuan, even causing the punishments of the Avici Hell to pause for a moment.

The Great Thunderclap Temple?!

Xu Xuan's pupils shrank sharply, and before he could react, he saw a golden fist hurtling towards him from a great distance!

That fist was initially just a tiny point, but in an instant it filled the heavens and earth, domineeringly dispelling the laws of the Avici Hell and forcibly carving out a pure land in this land of eternal punishment!
boom--! ! !
The endless Buddhist chants reverberated, forcibly pushing away the primordial energy of heaven and earth that had surrounded Xu Xuan. His blood and spirit were almost frozen, as if even his thoughts had been suppressed by this punch.

The next moment, the surrounding scenery changed drastically.

The darkness and flames of the Avici Hell were forcibly erased, replaced by a pure land of crystal, where golden lotuses bloomed and solemn chants resounded. The phantoms of the Five Wisdom Kings appeared, enhancing the power of the fist, their golden radiance so dazzling it stung the senses, causing even someone of Xu Xuan's cultivation level to squint.

The fist did not actually land, but the surging magical power was compressed to the extreme, space was distorted, and the laws wailed, as if if this fist really landed, even the Avici Hell itself would be torn apart!
The sheer, terrifying power brings with it absolute despair.

Xu Xuan felt a chill run down his spine, and a sense of alarm resounded in his mind.

However, the fist that was so close at hand left him no time to think any further.

In a fraction of a second, I realized one thing—if I don't throw a punch, I'll die!
"boom--!!!"

The Pure Land unfolds in an instant!

His immortal skin and jade bones creaked and cracked, and the human blood within his body surged like a raging river. The sheer force of his physical body alone was enough to shatter mountains and break peaks! However, this was only the beginning.

Golden light manifested from the void, covering his entire body.

Pure Land and perilous land intertwine, Buddhist heart and demonic heart merge.

The phantom images of Ksitigarbha, Avalokiteshvara, Mahakasyapa, the Eastern Dharma Protector Bodhisattva... many powerful Buddhist figures manifested around him, and the vast Buddhist power blessed him, causing golden light to explode and sting his senses.

"Devas, Nagas, Yakshas, ​​Gandharvas, Asuras, Garudas, Kinnaras, Mahoragas—the Eight Classes of Devas and Nagas, return to your places!"

"Acala, Rajamitsu, Kundali, Yamantaka, Vajrayaksa—the Five Great Wisdom Kings, return to your positions!"

The Tao and reason converged and compressed wildly, distorting and cracking the surrounding space. The beliefs of all Buddhas condensed behind him into a phantom of a Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss—lotuses bloomed in the Seven Treasure Pond, the water of the Eight Merits flowed gently, celestial maidens scattered flowers, kalavinkas sang, and the sound of Brahma was like a tide!

"boom--!!!"

Punch! Punch! Punch! The fist that subdues all evil!
This punch carried the weight of the Blissful World, so heavy that as it traveled through the void, it created ripples in the space like water, and the sound of shattering was incessant!
The immense force generated rings of dazzling light, distorting the space-time within that small area, freezing everything in place, and silencing all sound! Wherever the fist passed, the glass-like vacuum passage was forcibly pierced through!

"boom--!!!"

Two fists collided!

In an instant, the laws of the Avici Hell were torn apart, and time and space shattered completely at that moment!
Golden light clashes against crystal, a battle between Buddhas!

Here, only the purest clash of force against force, reason against reason, and fist against fist remains!
The heavens and earth fell silent, only the roar of fist intent remained!
Start a new conversation
The world first turned black and white, then burst forth with dazzling five-colored divine light. The gas explosion clouds, like raging waves, spread out layer after layer. The shockwaves, carrying endless light and heat, evaporated the hellfire sea within a radius of a thousand miles!
Then--

"boom--!!!"

Xu Xuan flew backwards for three thousand miles!
The sheer force crushed down, causing bones and muscles to tremble, blood and qi to reverse, and internal organs to shake!
He lay in the void, his acupoints trembling incessantly, his qi and blood completely out of control, his three souls and seven spirits were all stiffened, and even his thoughts were briefly frozen.

It hurts but doesn't cause injury.

His opponent's boxing skills were far superior to his own, and the entire exchange just now was under his opponent's control!
Of course, not being injured doesn't stop us from complaining.

"Senior brother, that was a bit too much..." Xu Xuan said, grimacing.

A flash of golden light appeared, and a figure had appeared beside him without him noticing.

Clad in white as snow, with sharp, piercing eyes, his fist still clenched.

—The monk Ruoxu!
With a flick of his sleeve, the rules of the Avici Hell were shattered, and a pure land was created to envelop Xu Xuan within it.

He allowed himself to be attacked by swords and axes, sparks flying everywhere, without even flinching.

“In the Avici Hell, besides the punishments, there are also endless illusions,” Ruoxu said calmly. “Senior brother just wanted to verify it.”

He paused, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"However, you did give me a very big surprise."

Or rather, it should be said that it frightened them.

Ruoxu was very clear about the weight of his punch.

Ordinary cultivators at the third realm simply cannot withstand it; at best, their physical bodies will shatter, and at worst, their souls will dissipate.

Xu Xuan not only caught it, but he also caught it with his fist.

It should be noted that when they last parted, his junior brother's fighting style was mainly based on magic and illusion, manipulating willpower and desires, following the path of an orthodox Zen master.

When they met again, this guy's physical body had become extraordinary, and the techniques contained in his fist techniques were even more profound and unfathomable, containing a universe within.

If his perception is correct, the two have only been separated for a little over a year.

In such a short time, my junior brother not only completely changed his fighting style, but his cultivation level also advanced by leaps and bounds to an abnormal degree.

"..." Ruoxu remained silent for a moment, then finally couldn't help but say:

"Your progress... is just too exaggerated."

As I said before—she's as pure as a white lotus!
When the fellow disciples met, they exchanged a few pleasantries.

Ruoxu sat cross-legged in the Pure Land, his eyes sparkling with curiosity: "Tell me the story after Black Mountain." He was particularly interested in Xu Xuan's experiences—encountering such a miraculous and outrageous fellow on the path of cultivation was itself a form of cultivation. At this moment, Ruoxu had no idea what incredible legendary story he was about to hear; he was still immersed in the joy of his junior brother surviving this time.

Xu Xuan didn't stand on ceremony and began to explain in detail.

"It all started when I returned on the seventh day after his death and killed the deceased Venerable Kasyapa."

This revenge really doesn't wait overnight, but it's also because Jianglong is too ferocious and domineering to dare to block the door.

Even more outrageous is that Lady White Snake personally assisted, joining forces to completely destroy the corpse of the Dragon Subduer.

Ruo Xu thought to himself that even if he took action, he might not be able to achieve such results, but if he used the Buddha's golden alms bowl... that would be a different story.

But Xu Xuan's next move left him speechless—"I put the golden bones of the Dragon Subduer into the Purple Gold Bowl and sent it to the Pure Land Sect to remove the demonic energy."

Ruoxu: "..."

Could a normal person do something like that?
It seems the old monk on the mountain is losing his resolve to be a Buddhist.

Seeing that the first short story had been well received, Xu Xuan told a second short story.

The Green Serpent Demon Army subdued the eight hundred miles of waterways in Taihu Lake, while Xu Hanwen plotted to cultivate a million acres of fertile land in Wu County.

The demonic disturbances in Jiangnan have been largely quelled, and the land of fish and rice has returned to its former glory.

"Excellent, excellent!" Ruoxu nodded in approval. "This technique is much gentler than mine."

If he were to take action, he would most likely subdue all the water demons, and those who refused would be sent to the afterlife.

But Xu Xuan's methods were more ingenious—he used both kindness and severity, setting rules while providing a way out, and even allowing the demon race and the human race to coexist and benefit each other.

What surprised him even more was that the green snake that used to come to Xu Xuan for meals in the middle of the night had now become a water lord, far stronger than an ordinary demon king.

My junior brother has the bearing of an abbot.

As the story unfolds, each plot point becomes more explosive than the last.

Slay the Blood Demon, aid the righteous path, and take over Mount Shu...

Shushan doesn't accept assignments lightly. They're not just taking on disciples and divine weapons, but also the karma of the Shu region's demonic sects and the entanglements of the Long-Browed True Man's heavenly secrets.

The long-browed man's divination skills were unparalleled in the human world, so it was only natural that he was corrupted by the Heavenly Dao.

Throughout history, countless exceptionally talented cultivators have ultimately succumbed to the overwhelming force of Heaven's will.

Some ascend to heaven, some fall; in the end, it's just a struggle over paths.

"By the way, junior brother, have you told the sect about this?" Ruoxu suddenly remembered something and asked.

"Sect?" Xu Xuan blinked, looking completely innocent.

Receiving a Taoist lineage should indeed be reported to the Pure Land School.

but--

“I used the Shushan Temple that Baoantang received, not Jinshan Temple.”

"The new Shushan is still in the stage of accumulating strength and has not yet begun its counterattack against Bashu."

Ruoxu: "..."

Good heavens, Zen Master Fahai has established his own sect and circumvented the rules of Buddhism.

So, whether or not to report it doesn't really matter.

Looking at his junior brother, he couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle—he really was quite capable.

Xu Xuan stood up and told the rest of the story.

With a swing of his arm, he got carried away by his emotions.

"The Great Nuo Exorcism... sweeps across the nine provinces, fulfilling the great wish of the human race."

The scene descriptions are spot on, and even the opening poem is exactly the same.

Upon hearing this, Ruoxu had lost count of how many times he had sighed, and this time his sigh even carried a hint of admiration.

This is something he cannot do.

My fellow disciple possesses: compassion, fearlessness, wisdom, equanimity, diligence, meditative concentration, and Bodhicitta.
These most revered qualities of mind in Buddhism can all be seen in Xu Xuan.

My junior brother could become the leader of all Buddhist sects in the world.

The subsequent killing of the White Lotus Dharma King, the attack on Dongting Lake, the suppression of Black Mountain, the pursuit of the Yin-Yang Dharma King... one after another, Ruoxu became more and more alarmed as he listened.

He suddenly understood why Xu Xuan would take such a great risk to enter the Avici Hell—it turned out that there were so many vicious people outside making things difficult for his good junior brother!
It's unfair to a man who sacrificed his life for humanity!
It's putting a high-ranking monk who uses Buddhism to save all sentient beings in a difficult position!
Ruoxu's gaze gradually turned cold, and his fists clenched unconsciously, his knuckles making a "crackling" sound.

Should good people be bullied one after another?!

not to mention--

The one you're putting in a difficult position is the future abbot of my Pure Land School!

“Junior brother.” Ruoxu slowly stood up, his body radiating Buddhist light like raging flames, and he forcefully pushed back the rules of the Avici Hell. “Senior brother will now go and extinguish the last bit of spiritual light of that outer realm fire god, and then I will take you out.”

"Then--"

He looked up into the void, as if piercing through the boundaries of Yin and Yang, staring directly at the demons and monsters hiding in the shadows.

"Let's settle the accounts one by one."
