The two demonic cultivators were only at the seventh level of cultivation. In front of Kong Yuan, who was now clear-headed and unleashing his full power, they had little chance of resisting.
In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Kong Yuan pulverized it into dust.
At this moment, Kong Yuan finally snapped out of his excitement.
Seeing the two demonic cultivators who had vanished without a trace, Kong Yuan was shocked. This was the first time he had ever used such ruthlessness.
In the past, most of the exchanges and discussions were between fellow disciples.
I have occasionally encountered demonic cultivators, but after killing them, I will also perform a ritual to help them pass on to the afterlife.
This was the first time he had ever turned someone into dust, and he had no intention of performing any rituals to help the person pass on to the afterlife this time.
but……
I have to admit, it feels really good!
Perhaps Junlin is right.
Tang Sanzang was a true holy monk. He had only borrowed the other party's words, yet he felt his mind was clear.
He had never felt so relaxed.
This gave him a strange feeling, as if everything was supposed to be this way!
"How are you? How do you feel?" Jun Lin asked, leaning over as well.
He was originally thinking about how to get Kong Yuan to use violence to complete the final step, but he didn't expect that there would be demonic cultivators coming to his door in this wretched place.
Moreover, the person wearing these clothes might even be a member of the Church of Ego.
To this, he could only say that everyone in the church is a good person.
Kong Yuan scratched his head awkwardly, "It's alright, I just feel much more relaxed."
Junlin nodded. "That's right. This is the mindset a Buddhist disciple should have. And you must understand that you are the hope of the Western Buddhist Kingdom. They should listen to you, not you listen to them."
Kong Yuan was stunned for a moment: "But...they are my masters."
Jun Lin was speechless. "Don't you understand? You are the hope of the Western Buddha Kingdom. Isn't that what they told you?"
Kong Yuan nodded.
Junlin shrugged and said, "That's right. Since you are the hope of the Western Buddha Kingdom, they should protect you and put you first. They may call themselves your masters, but in reality, they can only be considered your protectors!"
Hearing Jun Lin's words, Kong Yuan couldn't help but widen his eyes.
That seems to make sense!
Jun Lin pressed his advantage, saying, "So, as protectors, their current behavior has already overstepped their bounds. As the hope of the Western Buddha Kingdom, you have every right to make them get lost. What you need are obedient protectors who will guide you to the peak, not oversteppers who will make decisions for you and brainwash you!"
Kong Yuan's eyes grew brighter and brighter.
yes!
He is clearly the hope of the Western Buddhist Kingdom, so why do those old monks put pressure on him every day? And why do they have to be his master and suppress him?
Since everything in the Western Buddha Kingdom has been placed on his shoulders, he should be the one in charge!
With his mind clearer, Kong Yuan immediately nodded and said, "I understand! Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother! I will always remember this great kindness!"
If Junlin hadn't kidnapped him this time, he would probably have lived in the shadow of those old monks for the rest of his life.
Even if he breaks through to the ninth realm in the future and reaches that legendary level, he will still be suppressed by those old monks because of his master-disciple relationship.
So that's what those old monks were thinking!
Seeing this, Junlin nodded in satisfaction. He had finally succeeded, and all those stories he had fabricated over the past few days had not been in vain.
But we also owe a lot to those old bald men.
If it weren't for those old bald men constantly instilling the idea of the "hope of the Western Buddha Kingdom" into Kong Yuan, making him extremely sensitive to the words "hope of the Western Buddha Kingdom" under immense pressure, it wouldn't have been so easy for him to "correct" Kong Yuan's thinking.
However, to prevent Kong Yuan from being brainwashed by those old bald men again after returning, Jun Lin decided to give him a few more reminders as an extra layer of insurance.
So he said, "If you go back in the future and they find out about your change, they will definitely try to brainwash you by saying that you are the hope of the Western Buddha Kingdom. You must always remember to stay true to yourself."
Kong Yuan nodded upon hearing this and said, "Senior brother, rest assured. I have learned a lot from your teachings these past few days. I will naturally no longer believe what they say. I am the hope of the Western Buddha Kingdom. What right do they have to point fingers at me?"
Junlin nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad, you are teachable. But there is one more thing you need to understand: the tallest tree in the forest is the first to be felled by the wind. If you are too obvious, they might take action against you."
"This...it shouldn't be, right? I am the hope of the Western Buddha Kingdom, how could they dare to attack me?"
"Why not? They all want to control you today. If you are not under their control, they will naturally not be happy. You understand the principle of destroying what you cannot have."
"I understand, I will be careful."
"Well, that's good. As the saying goes, a gentleman takes revenge even after ten years. Your cultivation level is not high now, so you can go back and make do. It's not too late to settle this score when your cultivation level is higher."
Kong Yuan was deeply moved upon hearing this, and knelt down in the direction of Jun Lin, saying, "I will never forget your guidance today, Senior Brother!"
Jun Lin was overjoyed at the sight, but his face showed a flustered expression. "Junior brother, why are you doing this? You are the hope of the Western Buddha Kingdom. How can you perform such a grand ceremony? Get up quickly."
Kong Yuan shook his head and said with a smile, "Senior brother deserves it. This kneeling has made my mind clear!"
Seeing this, Junlin stopped being coy and nodded, saying, "You are a true disciple of Buddha, clearly distinguishing between gratitude and resentment."
Seeing this, Kong Yuan got up and sat back on the golden lion's back, chuckled and shook his head, saying, "Senior brother is joking. I have realized all the illusions of the past, and only today do I know who I am."
He was once nothing more than a puppet, living under the control of those "masters," merely possessing the title of a Buddhist disciple.
But from this day forward, no one can continue to control his life!
He is a disciple of Buddha, the hope of the Western Buddha Kingdom, and he will lead the Western Buddha Kingdom to a new peak!
"My fate is in my own hands!"
In the blink of an eye, Kong Yuan's aura surged like a rainbow. He broke through, and not only did he break through, he directly broke through to the peak of the seventh realm!
Jun Lin's lips twitched upon seeing this. Damn, this chosen one is terrifying. His cultivation level increases in a completely unreasonable way!
No need for cultivation, it just skyrockets!
This must be the Heavenly Dao directly channeling spiritual power into us, right?
Moreover, this is just a fake chosen one of destiny. If he were a real chosen one of destiny, wouldn't he be defying the heavens?
No, it should be "following the will of Heaven," after all, he is the chosen one.
Er Yan listened to the entire conversation between Jun Lin and Kong Yuan, and was deeply shocked.
As expected of the Daoist partner she chose, he's truly remarkable!
They sold people out of their lives and still managed to make them kneel before them.
However, it can't really be said that they sold him out, since Junlin's words were indeed of great benefit to Kong Yuan.
But for those old monks, it might not be so good.
Er Yan couldn't help but ponder.
I wonder if Junlin can brainwash her third, fourth, and fifth brothers and make them act as loving older brothers who adore their younger sister.
