'Boom'

The Zen temple and halls of Changlin Temple collapsed, and the Buddha and Bodhisattva statues in the temple also collapsed under the magic power of General Fatan.

The so-called "suppression, capture and killing, destruction of temples and altars" is what the three great heavenly generals do.

If ordinary gods destroyed Buddhist temples and statues, they would inevitably have cause and effect with those Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, but the two generals who destroyed temples and altars had the authority of the Heavenly Court, and destroying temples and altars was their normal exercise of their authority.

When the Changlin Temple was being demolished, Qian Yuhou had already returned from the pagoda forest with the heavenly soldiers.

"Your Excellency," Qian Yuhou reported, "I have discovered over 700 magical instruments crafted from human bones, skin, and various human and demonic bodies within the central pagoda of the Pagoda Forest. We have confiscated them all."

After saying that, Qian Yuhou pointed to the storage bags in the hands of the heavenly soldiers behind him. Qian Yuhou and the heavenly soldiers all looked very ugly, because some of the magic weapons were too evil and caused great harm to their pure hearts.

"Take them all back to Xitian Mansion." Fang Jian said.

At this time, Huo Xunyan came to Fang Jian and bowed, "Master Hongqing, my parents..."

Fang Jian said to Huo Xunyan, "Don't worry, we can make an assessment after we return to Xitian Prefecture."

Upon hearing this, Huo Xunyan bowed respectfully and said, "Yes."

"Sir." At this time, a heavenly soldier came over, bowed to Fang Jian, and pointed behind him and said, "Look."

Fang Jian turned around and saw a black iron flagpole standing tall, and the abbot of Changlin Temple, Pu Yuanshen monk, was tied up and hanging on the flagpole.

"..." Fang Jian asked Tian Bing, "Who did it?"

The celestial soldier reported, "The old monk has been looking towards Changlin Temple. To fulfill his wish, Zhou Yuhou hung him on the flagpole, saying he could see as much as he wanted."

Fang Jian smiled slightly when he heard this, and then said, "It's very shaky when hung like this, right?" Fang Jian said as he looked at the monk Pu Yuan swaying on the top of the flagpole.

The Heavenly Soldier nodded and said, "It is very shaky."

Fang Jian raised his hand and slashed across the shoulders of the divine monk Pu Yuan. He said, "Nail another horizontal piece of wood and nail his arms to it, forming a cross. Then he won't shake."

Upon hearing this, the heavenly soldier immediately bowed and said, "Your Excellency the Minister is wise." After saying this, he immediately turned around and headed back.

Not long after, when the flagpole was raised again, the top had become a "cross", and the monk Pu Yuan was nailed to the cross, looking at the Changlin Temple below, which had become a ruin, with a gloomy face.

"Your Excellency, all the statues at the Changlin Temple's altar have been destroyed. I have come to report." A flash of immortal light passed by, and the altar-destroying general landed in front of Fang Jian and reported.

"Your Excellency, all the palaces and temples of Changlin Temple have been destroyed. I have come to report." Then, the General Who Destroyed the Temple also appeared in front of Fang Jian.

Fang Jian nodded and said, "Okay."

A moment later, a jade-white celestial light flew down. General Fatan and General Pomiao quickly made way. Tang Yu slowly landed on the ground, holding the Peach Core Twin Clear Swords. He then reported to Fang Jian, "Your Excellency, the Minister, all the evil monks in Changlin Temple have been killed."

Fang Jian asked, "How many casualties did the Heavenly Soldiers suffer?"

Tang Yu said: "Thirteen people were killed, more than six hundred were seriously injured, and more than two thousand were slightly injured."

Fang Jian said, "Send the spirits of the fallen celestial soldiers to the palace temple for nurturing. There must be no mistakes."

"Follow the law." Tang Yu bowed and said.

Then, Tang Yu asked again: "Sir, how should we deal with those relics?"

Fang Jian glanced at the scattered relics in the ruins of Changlin Temple, then shook his head and said, "This is not something we can deal with. Leave it here."

"Yes." Tang Yu responded respectfully.

Afterwards, Fang Jian glanced around and said, "Concentrate your divine power and return to Xitian Mansion."

"Follow the law."

Flags fluttered, golden clouds were heavy, and five thousand heavenly soldiers stood on the top of the clouds. Led by the three heavenly generals, they returned to the Western Paradise in a mighty procession.

Just after Fang Jian and others returned to Xitian Mansion, a ray of Buddha's light suddenly fell from the sky above Changlin Temple. Then the Buddha's light rolled up, and the relics scattered all over the ground flew up instantly. Then the Buddha's light flashed again, and disappeared with those relics in an instant.

After Fang Jian returned to Xitian Mansion, he immediately ordered people to start identifying the more than 700 magical instruments.

Fang Jian personally led a team of heavenly soldiers and sent the monk Pu Yuan directly to the Thunder Department of Heaven.

The reason he came to the Thunder Department was to prevent the incident in which the ten demon kings were killed from happening again, because he wanted to obtain the memory of the monk Pu Yuan.

"Master Hongqing, why do you have time to come to my Thunder Department today?" Yan Da, the Left Minister of the Divine Thunder Jade Palace, came out from the office hall in person and bowed to Fang Jian with a smile.

Fang Jian bowed his head and said to Yan Da, "Minister Zuo, I need to acquire the complete spiritual memory of the cultivator. Please help me with this."

Yan Da was startled when he heard this, then said in surprise: "To acquire memories, a True Immortal can do it. Master Hongqing is now a Golden Immortal, so I think acquiring memories shouldn't be difficult, right?"

Fang Jian shook his head and said, "This person has a special identity. He is the Golden Immortal abbot of Changlin Temple of the Great Sun Sect. I was afraid that he might get into trouble, so I didn't rashly acquire his memories. That's why I came to the Thunder Department for help."

Hearing Fang Jian's words, Yan Da couldn't help but look shocked and asked, "The Golden Immortal Master of Buddhism?"

"That's him." Fang Jian raised his hand and waved. Two heavenly soldiers immediately dragged the monk Pu Yuan forward. "The Thunder Department is in Daluo Heaven. The power of Buddhism cannot reach here, so I ask for the help of the Left Minister."

Yan Da pondered for a moment, then said, "Master Hongqing, it's not that I don't want to help you. The Thunder Department is different from other places. They must have solid evidence before they can use torture. Naturally, capturing memories is also included in the list of tortures."
