Chapter 454 Killing
Chu Qing didn't say this in vain.

There were eleven words in total. The sound was not loud, but it was like a heavy hammer hitting the heads of every villager in Tianfo Village.

The annoying words "Buddha has mercy on all living beings and saves all living beings" turned into a series of muffled groans.

One figure after another fell to the ground, and the surroundings suddenly became extremely peaceful.

At that moment, in the entire Tianfo Village, one could hear a pin drop.

"This……"

Meng Hui looked at the changes around him and swallowed subconsciously.

It's just one sentence, why does it cause such a stir?

Even though Wan Chunhua knew that Chu Qing was powerful, he had never imagined such a scenario.

Little did they know that Chu Qing had integrated the Heaven-Transforming and Earth-Strike Great Method into the Lion's Roar of Vajra Zen, causing this seemingly ordinary sound skill to undergo earth-shaking changes.

In the past, people said that what you say should be followed by what you do, and this was somewhat deliberate.

When Chu Qing asked someone to kneel down, they knelt down. That was because he secretly used his internal energy to cause injuries to the other person, causing them to kneel down involuntarily.

But now...when Chu Qing asked someone to kneel down, a buzzing sound would appear in his head and go deep into his heart, and he would kneel down unconsciously.

Although the effects are similar, the actual changes are very different.

Nowadays, all the people in Tianfo Village are under the control of Tianfo Temple.

With ordinary martial arts, perhaps these villagers could be made to stop, faint, and lose their ability to fight.

But the damage caused is bound to be great, but now he is dealing with it in this way. After the main problems of Tianfo Temple are solved, not only will they not be hurt, they can even regain their sanity.

However, Chu Qing did not intend to explain the ins and outs of this.

He looked up at the Tianfo Temple above his head, which was emitting dazzling luster in the morning light, shook his head slightly, and raised his palm to send out a gust of wind.

The palm power seemed to have substance and instantly soared into the sky.

But in a flash, it passed through the Tianfo Temple without causing any damage.

The shepherd boy couldn't help scratching his head:
"What's going on? Is Tianfo Temple really invulnerable to all attacks?"

"Junior brother...what should I do?"

Meng Hui was a little worried:

"We can only see but cannot enter. How can we save people? Moreover, this temple is upside down... Even if we go up, I'm afraid we will fall down."

He still held out hope of saving people, but Chu Qing knew that most of the people who entered Tianfo Temple had already died.

Even if they are still there, they may not be the same people as in the past.

Just as he was about to speak, Wan Chunhua suddenly said:
"Could this be... a mirage?"

Chu Qing glanced at him:
"you know?"

“I have heard in the past that there is a palace of immortals in heaven, which appear from time to time and attract people to worship them.

"But some people say that it was actually caused by a mythical beast called a mirage, which looks like a giant snake with dragon-like horns. Its breath forms a tower, which is called a mirage tower.

"Foolish men and women do not know the wonders of nature and think they are miracles."

Wan Chunhua shook his head and said this, then scratched his head:

"In fact, I didn't understand most of it, but I figured that there was a big worm that could create a shadow that looked real and illusory, and put it in the sky to deceive people."

"... Could it be that there is a giant snake beast raised in Tianfo Temple?"

Meng Hui only felt it was even more terrifying.

However, Wu Qianhuan and Wenrou have been with Chu Qing for too long, so they don’t think that’s the case.

However, my knowledge is limited and I have no opinions to express.

"I see!!

"It's a mirage!"

The shepherd boy suddenly clapped his hands:
“My master once told me that there is a kind of wonder between heaven and earth that can transfer the scene from one side to another.

“It is just like looking at something in a bronze mirror, using the heaven and earth as a mirror, and having gone through countless twists and turns. Now it seems to be within reach, but in fact it is thousands of miles away.

"The mythological story told by Wan was also combined together, so this scene was named Mirage.

"Master said that this kind of wonder is something you only see once in a lifetime!"

Wan Chunhua widened his eyes:

"Ah? Could it be that the Tianfo Temple is not actually here, but thousands of miles away?"

Chu Qing had never expected that there actually were mirages in this world.

This saved him a lot of words, and he spoke softly:
“This is indeed a mirage. It is invulnerable to all kinds of attacks. It is not just possible that there is a real Buddha sitting in the Tianfo Temple. It is also possible that… it is simply a false shadow.

"Last night, a monk was killed, and this morning a mirage appeared.

“These monks didn’t take action themselves, but instead used this opportunity to confuse the villagers and get them to come to our house… From the looks of it, they were planning to capture us alive.

"Unfortunately, it's too early to make this wishful thinking."

"I see."

Wu Qianhuan exhaled slowly:

"I never thought there would be such a thing as a mirage in the world. The magic of creation is indeed extraordinary."

She paused and glanced at Chu Qing:
“But there is one thing I don’t quite understand, why can the people of Tianfo Temple create such a scene so easily?
“What happened last night must be related to what happened this morning. Just as you said, the death of the great monk gave rise to today’s mirage. The Tianfo Temple wants to use this method to capture us alive.

"Then how did he create this phantom?
“And the fact that he was able to create this phantom must mean that the real Tianfo Temple is right next to them.

"Otherwise, why is it not Xianyun Mountain? Not Tianyin Mansion? Why is it Tianfo Temple?"

Chu Qing was about to nod in agreement with Wu Qianhuan's words when he saw the shepherd boy suddenly raise his hand high, his face full of excitement.

This excitement made Chu Qing subconsciously think of a cat that caught a mouse, or a mouse that saw food...

He raised his eyebrows slightly:
"If you have something to say, just say it. Raising your hand makes it sound like you are swearing."

"I see!!"

The shepherd boy didn't care about Chu Qing's words and said excitedly:
"It's the Mirage Pearl!!"

"Mirage Pearl?"

Chu Qing was slightly stunned:
"Could it be that?"

"That's right!! The real Tianfo Temple should be here. They used the Mirage Pearl to transmit the scene into the air!
“My master told me the story of the mirage because he wanted to introduce me to the Mirage Pearl… This item is the most valuable treasure in the [Record of Rare Treasures].

“It was rumored that it was three hundred years ago. No, it should be earlier.

"During the heyday of the Daqian Dynasty, a small country on the border came to offer a treasure, and the one it presented was this Mirage Pearl.

"At that time, Emperor Daqian asked him, what is so wonderful about this mirage pearl?

"The envoy of the small country placed the mirage bead on his head. As a result, through the light, another envoy appeared, but that envoy was upside down, which was very strange.

"But Emperor Daqian disagreed, thinking it was just a strange trick and not worth mentioning.

“But unexpectedly, the envoy actually said that he could add another city for the Emperor Daqian.

"The Emperor of Daqian will let him do what he wants. Anyone who dares to deceive the emperor will be punished by death...

"The envoy from that small country spent several months building a pearl platform.

"On a starry day, he placed the Mirage Pearl on it." At that time, the entire city-state was brightly lit, and under the gathered light, through the Mirage Pearl, a Daqian Royal City hanging upside down in the sky appeared in everyone's eyes.

"The people cheered and rejoiced, saying it was a good omen and God would bless Daqian.

"All the civil and military officials congratulated the emperor on his eternal reign... Even the Emperor Daqian was overjoyed and rewarded the envoy generously, and kept the Mirage Pearl with great care.

“However, the Daqian Dynasty was destroyed later, and the Mirage Pearl disappeared.

“When Master mentioned it, I was filled with regret. I never expected it to be here!”

Chu Qing listened quietly to the slightly excited story of the shepherd boy, and narrowed his eyes slightly:
"In other words... Tianfo Temple is neither in any formation, nor in any strange corner, nor is it thousands of miles away.

"it is at……"

Having said that, Chu Qing looked up at Wu Qianhuan and the shepherd boy.

The three of them spoke at the same time:
"underground!!"

Meng Hui clapped his hands:
"Yes, if it is true as this shepherdess said, that the Mirage Pearl can project its shadow upwards, then wouldn't the subject be me?"

"I see... You are indeed Miss Mu, you are very knowledgeable and experienced, which is beyond the reach of us."

Wan Chunhua couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

The shepherd boy glanced at him:
"Don't think I won't kill you just because you say a few nice words."

"what……"

Wan Chunhua waved his hands repeatedly:
"That is not my intention."

"Now that we know where these cowards are hiding, are you interested in joining me?"

Chu Qing glanced at a few people.

Everyone nodded.

Neither the shepherd boy nor Meng Hui are fools.

In this situation, Tianfo Temple has been alarmed. The other party must have other means. Instead of sitting here and waiting to die, it is safest to stay with Chu Qing.

Immediately, everyone set off and began looking for the entrance to Tianfo Temple.

This is actually not easy, but once you have a direction, you can find the traces.

Many situations indicate that Tianfo Temple is actually very close to Tianfo Village.

Otherwise, the sound of the bell in Tianfo Temple would not be so clear. If they were underground, there must be a channel for sound transmission.

And there is no way that the big monk from last night could have appeared out of thin air. Maybe the entrance is around the so-called Ten Thousand Buddha Forest.

Everyone simply headed straight for the Ten Thousand Buddha Forest. On the way, Chu Qing recalled the rumors he had collected before about the Tianfo Temple. He remembered that someone seemed to have said that the Tianfo Temple was in the sky.

Now it seems that this is not false.

Wan Chunhua said that during the two days he spent in Tianfo Village, when he went to bed at night, it seemed as if there was a Buddha reciting sutras to him in his mind, and he was almost gaining wisdom through the recitation.

I guess it was the person I beat to death last night.

All the groundless speculations seemed to have come true.

Finally, I found the correct answer.

In the blink of an eye, everyone arrived at the Ten Thousand Buddha Forest.

Everywhere you look, you can see densely packed Buddha statues. This is probably the most peaceful day in Wanfolin during the day in a long time.

The extreme silence can make people feel uneasy, and the densely packed and endless tall Buddha statues can also make people feel scared.

With the combination of these two factors, if one stays in such a space for a long time, one's heart will inevitably be shaken and collapse.

However, Chu Qing always felt that there seemed to be something else strange about this Ten Thousand Buddha Forest... At least he didn't understand why the Buddha King had so many Buddha statues carved?
What's the use?

Did he think that carving Buddha statues could really accumulate merit?

Thinking of this in my mind, I couldn't help but smile. How could anyone believe such nonsense?
What’s more, it’s someone like Lord Buddha?
"This place is dangerous, it's best not to search separately."

Meng Hui said softly:

"It's better to stay together, it's safer."

Chu Qing nodded. The Buddha statue blocked the view, and if they got lost, it would be easy to get into trouble.

But just as everyone was about to start looking, Chu Qing suddenly raised his eyes:

"It seems that there is no need to trouble us to look for it ourselves."

Just as everyone was confused, they heard the sound of uniform footsteps coming from all over the Ten Thousand Buddha Forest.

In a short while, a group of yellow-robed monks surrounded the few people.

A rough estimate is that there are probably hundreds of people.

These monks were skinny and the weapons they held looked somewhat peculiar.

It is a long weapon similar to a double-headed gun, but different.

The gun tip turned into a double-edged blade, some of which were curved and some were straight. They seemed to be stained with blood that had not been cleaned up, and there were many rust marks on them, making them look extremely hideous.

Not only that, there are also words engraved on their weapons. The words are strange and ostentatious. If you stare at them, you will feel dizzy.

What is this Tetanus Stun Blade?
Moreover, although he is a bald monk, he does not have any of the temperament that a monk should have. Instead, he exudes an indescribable evil nature.

"Amitabha."

A Buddhist chant came from above, and an old monk with a dark gray face stood on top of a Buddha statue. He put one hand together in front of his chest, and with the other hand he was twisting a string of Buddhist beads, laughing sinisterly:

"Who is coming?
"Did our temple's Zen Master Jingkong die at your hands last night?"

Chu Qing looked at the surrounding situation and let out a breath:

“It’s not the first time I’ve been surrounded by monks, but it still makes me feel uncomfortable.

"Old monk, why are you standing so high?
"Haven't you ever heard that the higher you stand, the harder you fall?"

"Answering a question that is not relevant, cutting up the body and offering it to the Buddha!!"

The old monk waved his hand without even looking at them, and just let the monks around him take action.

The murderous intent spread in all directions in an instant, and there were bursts of faint chanting sounds, and the monks followed suit, but they did not attack Chu Qing and others immediately. Instead, they crossed their bodies and changed positions. The repeated changes in their figures were obviously an extremely large and complex formation.

If it were any other day, Chu Qing would still be interested in having a good time with them.

After all, this formation looks quite powerful...but Chu Qing doesn't have the leisure time for that today.

He has been looking for Tianfo Temple for too long.

Now that it is right at your doorstep, how can you not miss it?

He took a step forward, yin and yang appeared, and wind and clouds arose.

The dual extremes of ice and fire swept across the eight directions, and with the help of the wind and clouds, the sky was filled with clouds, and strong winds were like thunder, and screams could be heard one after another!
People’s eyes and brains can be deceived by formations, but their true Qi cannot.

Chu Qing's internal energy penetrated every pore, forming a violent gale that covered the sky and the sun. Wherever it passed, the monks were either frozen into ice, burned into charcoal, or directly crushed by the wind and cloud energies.

Before these hundreds of people could even do anything, they were all killed without a single one left.

Chu Qing looked up at the old monk standing on the Buddha statue and suddenly stretched out his hand:

"Come!"
