My ordinary path to immortality shouldn't end here.

Chapter 75: Unable to Understand the Demon Scripture Due to Poor Aptitude
It turns out that when a person who possesses the power to write poems for the Heavenly Official dies, celestial phenomena will manifest!
Bai Chijing only learned of this after killing Sui Tianchan. At the same time, he also learned that the ferocity of the twelve great evil sword techniques far exceeded his imagination.

The twelve most malevolent sword techniques are all powerful. If two techniques can be used simultaneously, their destructive power will be multiplied. And if three, four, or even more techniques can be used at the same time, their destructive power will undoubtedly become even more terrifying.

Sui Tianchan died when Bai Chijing unleashed three of Bai Chijing's most ferocious sword techniques simultaneously.

However, upon closer examination, the greatest benefit of killing Sui Tianchan was not this.

One day after Bai Chijing killed Sui Tianchan, just as news of Sui Tianchan's demise spread widely, Bai Chijing unexpectedly discovered that he had passed through his first tribulation of the Three External Tribulations without a sound!

It was sudden and inexplicable.

But such things don't happen without a cause and effect, so Bai Chijing immediately went back to the place where he killed Sui Tianchan. However, apart from encountering many cultivators, he gained nothing.

……

The Three Refuges City, within the Bodhisattva Temple.

The temple was vast, yet currently only two handsome young monks resided within. The others had all perished when Bai struck down with his sword during the construction of the second Bodhisattva Temple.

Otherwise, Sui Tianchan wouldn't have been so enraged as to pursue and kill him.

"This is outrageous! Brother Suitian has only attained the form of a Bodhisattva in Nirvana!"

"Who says otherwise? Senior brother has the countenance of three thousand Bodhisattvas!"

At this moment, the two young monks were indignant.

They felt both indignant at the injustice suffered by Sui Tianchan and resentful at the loss of their own interests, yet powerless to resist.

Pusa Temple, Qianfo Temple, Weifo Temple, Luohan Temple, and Xifang Temple are all Zen Buddhist temples. However, although they share the same origin, it does not mean that they are of one mind.

When the Bodhisattva Temple lineage suffered severe damage in the Yao Tian Realm, and even the Bodhisattva image of Sui Tian Chan passed away, the other four lineages immediately joined forces to completely prevent Sui Tian Chan from sending its Bodhisattva image back to the Yao Tian Realm.

After all, the offerings of incense to the people of Yaotian are limited.

From one-fifth to one-quarter, that's a significant increase.

However, the other four sects won't go too far; one can still get a sip of soup at the Bodhisattva Temple. Of course, it will only be a sip of soup.

"Can we still get in touch with Brother Suitian?" one of the young monks asked.

"Cannot be contacted."

"Then what should we do?" The young monk who spoke first frowned, his expression somewhat gloomy. After all, who could have imagined that everything was going so well, things were progressing smoothly, and even the outer realm cultivators in this world couldn't interfere, when suddenly a peerless swordsman who had mastered the Twelve Great Ferocious Swords appeared!

Its ferocity was so great that even Sui Tian Chan's Bodhisattva form was powerless to resist it.

Upon hearing his fellow disciple ask such a question, the other young monk's face immediately hardened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Then let a true demonic cultivator emerge in this mortal realm!"

"Outer Heaven Realm?" The young monk who spoke first was startled upon hearing this, but he quickly realized the deeper meaning of his fellow disciple's words, and his face immediately turned horrified: "You want to give the Four-Faced Eight-Armed Buddha Sutra to that sword cultivator?"

“This person has definitely caught the eye of that being in heaven. It is impossible for him to perish in this era. His death will not come until three hundred years from now. Since that is the case, why don’t we give him a chance to achieve something?” Another young monk said, but when he said the last word, his expression was particularly intriguing.

"Alright! I don't think Senior Brother Suitian will blame you or me!" The young monk who spoke first nodded. Although their fellow disciples had all died at the hands of that peerless swordsman, the most unique thing about the Chanxin Buddhist Sect was that as long as a disciple had entered the path of cultivation, he could receive the Buddha's protection and thus carry his cultivation from this life to the next.

Therefore, while one might feel anger at the murder and death of a fellow disciple, it would only be anger, not to the point of feeling an inescapable obligation to seek revenge.

"When will the cycle of revenge end? Why not let all hatred disappear?" This saying is undoubtedly inappropriate for other cultivators, but it is very appropriate for disciples of the Chanxin Buddhist sect.

The fruits of cultivation are accumulated over lifetimes, so a single act of murder is hardly worth worrying about. It would be best to avenge it if possible, but if not, then letting it go is fine.

Sui Tianchan's fury stemmed from the fact that with the deaths of these fellow disciples, the incense offerings that Pusa Temple would receive would be greatly reduced.

Seeing that the other party had agreed to his plan, the other young monk did not hesitate. He placed a palm on his forehead, and as blood began to flow from his seven orifices, a look of pain appeared on his face. However, his words were full of relief and satisfaction: "Since that's the case, then I'm off! See you in the next life, junior brother! Namo Amitabha!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the young monk passed away.

However, after his death, a hazy golden figure suddenly leaped into the air, holding a mysterious scroll in its hand, and disappeared without a trace.

"Namo Amitabha! Brother, I will guard the temple gate well!"

From that day on, the Bodhisattva Temple in the city of Sanguiyi closed its doors to visitors.

However, the other four temples considered this to be perfectly reasonable. Since the Bodhisattva statue of Suitian Temple could no longer be brought over, the two monks alone were simply unable to maintain order.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they could only eke out a living in the city of Sanguiyi. Leaving this Buddhist realm, these Zen Buddhist disciples, who could evade the Yin and Yang and the Immortal Path, and had accumulated their cultivation through countless lifetimes, would easily incur the wrath of Heaven and Earth.

Heaven and earth have no self-awareness and do not exhibit obvious likes and dislikes like humans. However, the Zen Buddhist practice violates the rules of heaven and earth, and is therefore easily suppressed by them.

This is also one of the reasons why Sui Tian Chan's Bodhisattva form could not withstand the simultaneous unleashing of three extremely fierce sword techniques.

If this were within the Three Refuges City, Bai Chijing would need to unleash at least five of the most malevolent sword techniques simultaneously to sever Sui Tianchan's Bodhisattva form!
However, no one could have imagined that the last two monks remaining at the Bodhisattva Temple would be so audacious.

The Four-Faced, Eight-Armed Buddha Sutra is a Buddhist scripture found in the Bodhisattva Temple.

However, it was not created by the Chan Mind Buddhist School.

Although it is called a Buddhist scripture, it is actually a demonic scripture called the "Puppet Show Scripture," which has been passed down from a period of the past.

Later, he entered the Chan Mind Buddhism sect. Because its demonic nature was too strong, it caused many Buddhas to fall into demonic possession, so it was split into four.

The two young monks from the Bodhisattva Temple were preparing to raise demons in this Yaotian.

Just like the various immortal sects in the Yao Heaven and the human world, and the cultivators in the five great dynasties, these two young monks and others did not doubt Bai Chijing's cultivation aptitude.

Because they lacked knowledge of Bai Chijing's past, the two young monks even believed that Bai Chijing's talent for cultivation was the ultimate talent in the human world—"Dao Body"!
Thus, Bai Chijing, who was still unable to find the reason for his successful tribulation when he stepped into the clouds, suddenly found a book-like object in front of him after a flash of golden light.

The book opened on its own before Bai Chijing could even open it.

Then, Bai Chijing realized that she couldn't understand it.

This should be an extremely advanced cultivation method, but because it is so advanced, Bai Chijing felt a splitting headache just from reading the written records.

This was because of insufficient qualifications, and thus the method was politely declined.

Just as a famous sword chooses its master, a superior cultivation method will also select its practitioner. Someone like Bai Chijing, whose cultivation aptitude is inferior to the second-class "Entering the Dao" level and whose swordsmanship talent is barely passable thanks to acquired skills, naturally cannot be chosen by such a method.

One glance at it, and a splitting headache—that's the polite way to refuse this method.

If one insists on continuing to observe, then this method will no longer obstruct them, but it will cause the person observing this method to be completely exhausted and their soul to vanish into nothingness.

As for becoming a demon? Only those who can cultivate this method are qualified to do so.

"What an extraordinary method!"

Bai Chijing was greatly surprised. Where did this cultivation method come from? It was so advanced!

"This is probably a scroll of immortal scriptures..."

Bai Chijing guessed.

Moreover, it was a celestial scripture even superior to the "Battle Without Delusion Bodhi Sword Immortal Scripture." While Bai Chijing seemed to be struggling somewhat with the "Battle Without Delusion Bodhi Sword Immortal Scripture," it shouldn't have been so difficult that he didn't even deserve a glance.

So, Bai Chijing thought for a moment, took the suddenly acquired immortal scripture with him, and headed straight for Tu Jian Mountain.

He's going to go ask Ling Jia, the first person in charge.

After all, while this might be an opportunity for me, it's better to forgo an opportunity I can't understand. If possible, it would be good to use this opportunity to repay this peerless immortal.

Not repaying kindness is not in Bai Chijing's character.

Bai Chijing, who possessed a bead in his right palm that resembled an eye, was not particularly concerned about this kind of method.

He'll be able to create his own method sooner or later!

Bai Chijing felt that his inability to create something new was somewhat related to his current cultivation level.

Bai Chijing returned to Tujian Mountain without any attempt to conceal his identity.

If the disciples of Tujian Mountain had mixed feelings about Bai Chijing before, their feelings were now even more complex. He had descended the mountain, directly killed a high-level cultivator with four lines of Heavenly Official's inscription, and easily severely injured a young Daoist boy with a single sword strike. Such a reputation was truly infamous.

At this moment, Bai Chijing had already walked towards that circle, but before he got close, a soft and sweet voice sounded in his ear: "You can keep the scripture. Since it was given to you, it is yours."

Naturally, it was Ling Jia who spoke first.

Upon hearing the little girl's voice, Bai Chijing stopped, then clasped his hands in a gesture of gratitude.

　Thank you to Feizhou Heilulu, Lucheng, and Chengfeng Shangjiutian for the generous donations of Qidian coins!
