"Amitabha."

"Since you have already developed Crest of Knowledge, why make things difficult for these ordinary people?"

A middle-aged monk, dressed in a kasaya, stood with his hands clasped together, looking at the mutated tortoise before him.

Despite his enormous size, he appeared so small.

"."

The mutated tortoise looked at the hairless human in front of it. It was highly talented, and even if it couldn't be considered the First Sequence among humans, it would certainly be considered the Second Sequence. Therefore, it could roughly understand what the human meant.

Why make things difficult for ordinary people?

Of course it's because they're weak!

If they were even slightly stronger, they wouldn't have come over with this many.

It was only because they were weak yet possessed a large amount of Spirit Energy energy that they were attracted here in groups.

Why don't you speak?

The middle-aged monk frowned slightly, and his tone became serious.

"."

The mutated turtle's gaze towards the man grew increasingly displeased; did it simply not want to speak?

It can't talk!

Turtles do not have vocal cords; they are born mute, and even if they mutate, they have not developed vocal cords.

Clearly, the middle-aged monk was unaware of this matter.

The mutated turtle ignored the monk and prepared to walk past him to find other food.

In its perception, this human was not weak, and it was better to hunt another human than to waste time with him.

The middle-aged monk seemed to have realized its intention to continue hunting humans, and his expression turned cold.

The tone wasn't as friendly as before.

"You wicked child, despite my kind advice, you show no remorse whatsoever."

"Since that's the case, this humble monk will act on behalf of the people and Heaven today to punish you, you wicked creature."

"Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon, World Honored Ksitigarbha, Prajna Buddhas, Prajna Bamihong!"

"Vajra Flame!"

"Go!"

"Boom--"

Words spoken are law followed.

With hands forming a mudra, golden flames of Buddha fire burned from the Void, as if bearing the Buddha's wrath, cleansing the world of its sins.

The mutated turtle curled up inside its shell, but it still couldn't withstand the heat for long; after a dozen minutes, it was burned to ashes.

"What a spineless beast!"

"Even when the Vajra Flame burned his soul, there was not a single cry of agony."

The middle-aged monk was also shocked by the mutated turtle's indomitable spirit. The Vajra Flame of the Buddhist Sect not only Burn the body, but also the soul; it is a truly terrifying flame that annihilates both body and spirit.

If he weren't too weak to unleash the true power of the Vajra Flame, it wouldn't have been possible for it to resist for so long.

But it didn't make a sound for more than ten minutes under the Vajra Flame. If such a will were allowed to continue living, it would definitely become a great demon in the future!

"Master, you're amazing!"

Upon seeing that the mutated turtle was dead, a little boy in a gray monk's robe ran out and hugged the middle-aged monk's leg, looking at him with Jingjing eyes.

"The Buddha's wrath is naturally powerful."

The middle-aged monk couldn't help but smile at the little boy's praise.

"Do your martial uncles also have a master as strong as you?"

The little boy asked curiously.

Upon hearing this question, the middle-aged monk's smile faded, and he gently stroked the man's head, saying:

"They can recite Buddhist scriptures fluently and speak eloquently about Buddhist principles."

"But all they can do is talk."

"Buddha is formless and without appearance, but the Buddha in their hearts has form and appearance; they crave gold, lapis lazuli, jade, coral, Amber, giant clam shell, and agate—their minds are filled with nothing but money and lust."

"How can these people be worthy of being Buddhist Sect disciples?"

No matter how eloquently someone speaks, if they have no Buddha in their heart, they will not gain the Buddha's approval.

There are people in Buddhist circles who are devoted to the Buddhist Sect now, but their numbers are too small.

That's really too little.

He sighed softly.

Even though those people held high positions in the Buddhist Sect, he couldn't expel them even if he wanted to.

"Oh"

The young monk nodded blankly, not understanding what it meant, but it seemed that those senior monks were not good people.

"Don't think about them anymore. There are still many people here who need our help."

"Okay, Master."

"But Master, is it alright if we kill them? Didn't the abbot tell us not to interfere?"

"That old geezer doesn't know anything. Besides opening the door and letting people in, what else can he do? And he lets in rich and powerful people at that."

"Remember your master's words: killing is for the protection of life; cutting off karma is not the same as killing people."

"Our current killings are to Guardianship this country."

"But the abbot also said that all lives are equal."

"If he's an equal, why would he worship Buddha? Why doesn't he treat Buddha like a brother?"

"Don't listen to that old man anymore, he's just a liar."

"Oh, then I'll listen to Master from now on."

The Imperial Capital General Spirit Energy Bureau.

"Yuncheng is applying for First Sequence Heavenly Pride resources?"

"In this Beast Tide, has Yuncheng produced First Sequence?"

The director looked at the materials on the screen with some surprise, but more than anything, he was delighted.

What Huaxia lacks most right now is First Sequence geniuses.

The more of these Heavenly Pride, the better.

The more there are, the safer Huaxia will be.

However, as he reviewed the information, he suddenly frowned.

"Talent testing is the Second Sequence?"

"Relying on powerful swordsmanship to cut through the Beast Tide, he demonstrated strength no less than that of the First Sequence?"

"Fencing?"

What level of swordsmanship would it take for a Second Sequence swordsman to display the strength of a First Sequence?

The gap between the First Sequence and Second Sequence is so vast that it cannot be bridged by external objects or abilities.

If such weapons exist, they should definitely not be cold weapons.

Even the hardest sword cannot break through the defenses of those powerful Mutated Beast; it is not as sharp as compressed wind or Water Element.

Moreover, Mutated Beast are not only capable of melee combat; they have also Awakening various other abilities, so how can one defend against their ranged attacks?

Although the First Sequence is not without its shortcomings, their shortcomings are relative to the First Sequence.

To others, it's the same unattainable ceiling.

This guy named Chu Han is still a bit lacking.

"Hey, there's even a video of this."

"You knew I wouldn't believe you, haha."

The director chuckled and shook his head, then turned on the video to take a look.

What kind of demeanor could make them believe that this person could pull them from the Second Sequence to the First Sequence solely through swordsmanship?

As he watched, he fell silent.

One man and one sword cleaved through the entire Beast Tide.

Even Logia attacks can be cut through with a sword.

With godlike swordsmanship, he moved freely through the Beast Tide, dodging attacks from Mutated Beast with minimal movement.

In the very end, the corpse of the Mutated Beast that had ravaged the entire road sat alone atop the carcasses.

"Hiss"

The director couldn't help but gasp.

If it were like Qin Tian and Chen Bing, who used their abilities to destroy the Beast Tide with overwhelming force, he wouldn't feel much, he would only marvel at their power.
