"Peng!"

The huge soles of the feet stepped on the snow, creating a very deep depression. The ground trembled slightly, and a shock was transmitted in all directions.

Amidst the heavy snowfall, a small mountain-like figure appeared against the heavy snowfall. This was a black monster with a bull's head and a human body. It slowly walked out of the forest with heavy steps step by step.

"That great monk wants the hearts of five virgins and the hearts of three virgins," the tall figure murmured to himself, "Come to Golden Bull Head Temple today to see if the Chen Family Village people have sent any of the boys and girls to..."

This figure that kept mumbling turned out to be a Bull-Headed Wisdom King. This Bull-Headed Wisdom King wears a skull crown with a withered human head on its head, has three eyes on its face, its angry hair is rising, and its eyebrows are blazing like fire. It has a black snake as its organ, a wet human head as a necklace, and is wearing a six-bone robe. Its belly is huge and naked.

"Strange? Why does this forest smell like a stranger?"

Bull-Headed Wisdom King, who walked through the wind and snow, exhaled two streams of white air from his nose, his voice deafening. "Who... who is here?"

It looked around again and its ears moved.

"There is no sound of breathing or heartbeat. Am I mistaken?"

Finding no trace of the stranger, this Bull-Headed Wisdom King shook his head and strode towards Golden Bull Head Temple.

Not long after it left, He Ping, who was hiding in the canopy of the tree, smiled coldly. He hid his whereabouts and canceled his own heartbeat, so Bull-Headed Wisdom King did not notice his presence.

"How interesting! It turns out that there are still remnants of Stone Zen Temple in Western Wasteland Province. I thought all the people from Buddhism had fled to the Great Xiye Kingdom."

In addition to Daoism, there are also practitioners of Buddhism in this world. Buddhism also has the right to enter the Daoism. It is said that the Buddha came to this world from outside the sky and left countless holy relics, which led to the great prosperity of Buddhism.

Buddhism, like Taiyi Daoist Prefecture and Sanyuan Daoist Palace, all preach the three-volume Tao Zhengfa. The first volume is <Three Dharma Seals>, the second volume is <Five Aspects of the Silent Wheel>, and the last volume is <Mantra of the Venerable Radiant Mother>;

These three volumes of Buddhist teachings respectively explain the most profound mysteries of Buddhism, which are metaphors for the past, present and future. Also because the three volumes and three volumes have different emphases, the original Sangha of Buddhism was split into three parts, so it is called Three Vehicle Dharma Lineages.

It is said that in the ancient times, the desert of the Western Region where the original Sangha was located was still an oasis. Deep in the oasis there was a place where the Buddha was born, named Deer Park, which was the source of Three Vehicle Dharma Lineages.

Just overnight, the oasis turned into a desert, and the original monk group also suffered a catastrophe. Three Vehicle Dharma Lineages stars dispersed, and one of them went all the way eastward to Source of Shakya Grottoes in Western Wasteland Province, where it established Stone Zen Temple.

Therefore, Stone Zen Temple is also called the place of Great You's source of liberation, and the monastic group that came all the way east to the Great You area inherited the righteous Dharma called <Five Aspects of the Silent Wheel>.

"This 'Bull-Headed Wisdom King' has a strong Yao Qi in it. I don't know what kind of monster it is in disguise. It can transform into this posture. It should be blessed by Great Majestic Virtue Dharma in <Five Aspects of the Silent Wheel>."

He Ping has a clear mind, and when he feels the strong and abnormal Yao Qi, he knows the details of this "Bull-Headed Wisdom King" - this is definitely not a Buddhist king, but a monster transformed into Law Power. However, ordinary monsters should not have this ability, and there should be someone secretly controlling it.

"Just now I heard it say something like 'Great Monk'. It seems that there is someone secretly instigating it behind the scenes."

He Ping was not impatient, especially when he knew someone was doing something secretly, he did not rush to take action, but hid in the dark and continued to watch with cold eyes.

Unlike He Ping who was hiding outside to watch the show, everyone in Golden Bull Head Temple fell into panic.

Because of the heavy snowfall, the vibration when Bull-Headed Wisdom King stepped was absorbed by the snow on the ground. It took a while for Uncle Hou, the eldest lady, and all the guards to notice the footsteps outside.

"Niu, Bull-Headed Wisdom King, Bull-Headed Wisdom King is here!"

A guard saw the huge figure through the crack in the door. He opened his mouth wide and took two steps back in fright, almost falling to the ground.

Outside Golden Bull Head Temple, Bull-Headed Wisdom King jumped across the gate of the temple and landed outside the Dachun Palace.

"How could it be so fast!"

Uncle Hou's face was so shaky that she could hardly stand. The eldest lady was also frightened and turned pale, without a trace of blood.

Boom!

A huge palm smashed into the carved wooden door and slowly penetrated Great Hero Hall. Compared with ordinary people, this hand was as thick as a stone pillar. With a gentle grab, he grabbed a guard.

"Not a child?"

Bull-Headed Wisdom King licked his tongue.

"The great monk practiced the method to cultivate the hearts of boys and girls. He didn't say anything else. In that case, let's just beat the teeth as a sacrifice."

With a click of his finger, the guard's scream was dragged into the night sky. Then, his scream suddenly stopped, and instead, a creepy chewing sound came from outside the Great Hero Hall.

"Crunch, crunch, crunch," Bull-Headed Wisdom King opened his mouth and chewed, and said, "I'm sure I'm not full after just one, let's have another one!"

Another hand reached out, grabbed a frightened guard, stuffed it into his mouth, crunched, crunched, chewed it together with the bones, and then swallowed it.

Everyone in the Great Hero Hall was so frightened that the eldest lady bit her lip and trembled, whimpering, and huddled in the corner with everyone.

"Right."

Bull-Headed Wisdom King seemed to have remembered something, and whispered to himself, "I almost forgot about the business." Then, the thick arm like a stone pillar stretched into the Great Hero Hall again, groped for a while, and found the big iron cage skillfully.

The five fingers were all equipped with sharp armor that was as flat as a shovel and as curved as a long hook. With a sudden pinch of the five fingers, the iron cage was caught.

The man-eating monster with a body and a minotaur spurted two streams of hot air from its nose. It grasped the iron cage with one hand like a child grasping a small toy. It stretched out its other hand and counted the number of people in the cage with the tip of its black hook.

"One, two, three..."

Bull-Headed Wisdom King counted to "six" and immediately realized something was wrong. It lowered its head and let out a violent roar, grabbed hard, and lifted the corner of the eaves with a strong force.

I heard a loud bang in my ears, like a thunderbolt falling next to me, shaking my bones and making my body weak and making my ears buzz.

With the sound of shattering tiles, everyone in the Great Hero Hall had the illusion that the hall was crumbling. The ceiling above their heads almost disappeared. The house in the hall was half opened, revealing a huge hole. The beams were broken off and flew away. Then, a huge face came over and peeked at the people hiding in the main hall.

"Where is the seventh one?"

Bull-Headed Wisdom King's three eyes shot over, and Senhan's gaze made people's scalp numb. This ox-horned human-shaped monster looked at everyone present with an expression on its face, as if it were looking at a group of pig- and dog-like livestock.

"Found it."

The monster licked its tongue and moved its gaze behind the Buddha statue in the Great Hero Hall. Behind the dusty Buddha statue was a small, shivering figure.

"The seventh boy is you!"

The golden light in Bull-Headed Wisdom King's three eyes shone a little brighter. He stretched out his hand and slapped it, shattering the Buddha statue and grabbing the child.

Suddenly, the monster's movements stopped, and the child, swallowed by fear and despair, was shaking all over. He had his eyes closed, but when he felt something, he opened his eyes curiously, and was surprised to find that Bull-Headed Wisdom King's outstretched hand was frozen in mid-air.

Bull-Headed Wisdom King's five fingers are stretching desperately, and the muscles on its thick arms are also stretching. It is trying its best to control the feeling of being restrained all over the body, but its body does not seem to be under control, and it is unknown when it started. Hundreds of extremely fine silk threads are wrapped around its forehead, neck, arms, shoulders, body, waist and ankles.

"Can't move!"

The silk threads bound its body, and each thin thread was slowly tightening, just like a spider catching prey and beginning to tighten the web. The threads bit into the skin and began to circumnavigate Bull-Headed Wisdom King's body.

Then, Bull-Headed Wisdom King also let out a loud roar, and a layer of extremely dull golden light burst out from his body. The silk thread continued to tighten without being affected, and his outstretched right hand was marked with grid lines. Then, his face was also marked with vertical and horizontal grid lines.

There was a snap, which was the sound of disintegration. Red blood drops appeared on the grid lines of the right hand, and then blood spurted out from the line. The fingers, palms and elbows all turned into pieces of flesh in one breath.

Bull-Headed Wisdom King The entire body was decomposed, blood spurted out from the whole body, and the flesh and blood decomposed vertically and horizontally between the grid-like dotted lines. Silk threads wet with blood could be seen in the air. These transparent threads dripping with blood spread into the void and were controlled by one hand.

He Ping clenched his fists, stepped on the silk screen with his feet, and said indifferently while hanging in the air, "Originally, I was too lazy to meddle in other people's business, but the mark of Chixinzi is also among them, so there is nothing I can do about it."

After saying this, his eyes slowly turned towards the boy.
