513: Chapter 229: Ambush the Earth Demon God_4 513: Chapter 229: Ambush the Earth Demon God_4 Truth Listening shook its head.
It sighed, “This is the difference between the Great Sage Sect and the Buddhist and Daoist Sects.
The Great Sage Sect gives without expecting anything in return, simply taking on the responsibility of being a more powerful being.
Those Immortals and Buddhas perform divine feats and gather disciples largely to achieve Immortality and Enlightenment, to elevate their own strength.
They are fundamentally different from the Great Saint.”
This point, Truth Listening understood very clearly.
Some Immortals and Buddhas who had manifested divine feats in the mortal world for a time enjoyed the Power of Incense and Fire with great satisfaction after establishing significant repute among mankind, but they no longer bothered to help the suffering beings.
Content with their Enlightenment, they had long since put the plight of living beings out of their minds.
What they pursued was greater power, higher realms.
As for the life and death of living beings, that was of little concern to them.
Sun Wukong looked at Truth Listening with surprise and couldn’t help but laugh, “You truly live up to being Ksitigarbha’s Divine Beast, even your level of understanding is so high.
You truly are a continuation of Ksitigarbha’s own spirit.
Such enlightenment is rare throughout the Three Realms.”
Ksitigarbha is one, and I never expected Truth Listening to be another.”
Truth Listening smiled awkwardly, saying, “I do not possess the high level of understanding that my master has.
It’s just that I have heard it spoken of so often that I have been moved, I cannot compare with my master.”
In this respect, Sun Wukong agreed.
Truth Listening merely understood this principle, but clearly it would not act upon it.
Otherwise, it would not have hidden at this time instead of, like Ksitigarbha, stepping forward to protect the common people.
Many knew this principle, but very few could truly act upon it.
Sun Wukong prepared to leave.
Just then, his face suddenly showed a look of surprise.
His eyes turned toward the Vault of Heaven.
Two dark clouds fell, and they were actually Evil Demons.
In an instant, black winds screamed wildly within the city, and the Demon Cloud churned.
These were two Celestial Immortal level Evil Demons.
In Sun Wukong’s eyes, they were hardly a threat.
But to ordinary people, they were invincible.
“How audacious.”
“How dare you demons be so insolent?”
Two roars rang out, and two priests of Earth Immortal Realm from the Great Sage Sect charged forth, glaring at the two demons with fury on their faces.
Demons daring to wreak havoc where the Great Sage Sect offered protection.
“Ha ha, two mere Earth Immortals dare to defy me.
You truly know not whether to live or die.”
A sneer came from one of the Celestial Immortal level demons, full of disdain.
Boom.
With a single push of his hand, the two Earth Immortal Realm priests were panic-stricken.
As mere Earth Immortals with limited strength, how could they contend with Celestial Immortal demons?
After all, aren’t all Celestial Immortal warriors, especially those of the Celestial Immortal Realm demons, battle-hardened warriors who have emerged from a Corpse Mountain Blood Sea?
Their harsh living conditions ensured their combat prowess was not to be underestimated.
As the two priests were about to be slaughtered, Truth Listening glanced at Sun Wukong and saw he made no move to intervene, a flash of confusion crossed its eyes.
Were these not Sun Wukong’s subordinates?
Was he going to watch his own people be killed?
Truth Listening itself felt the impulse to intervene—to save these two people at all costs.
Sun Wukong held it back, smiling and shaking his head.
Amidst Truth Listening’s puzzled gaze, a figure with a murderous aura appeared.
“Mighty Heavenly Dragon…”
The young monk, formidable to the extreme, directly blocked the two demons.
At the same time, he struck fiercely, with Buddha’s Light piercing through one of the demons, eliciting a scream as the demon was seriously injured.
Truth Listening suddenly understood; it was this monk who was here.
Fahai, the first ruthless person of Huaguo Mountain.
Although his strength was not too strong, only at the peak of Celestial Immortal.
Yet, if a sinner or demon fell into his hands, there would be no chance of survival.
This was a monk, but his urge to kill was even heavier than any demon’s.
Yet, the innocent living beings felt no fear of Fahai.
All beings across the Three Realms knew that this monk targeted only the wicked and would never harm the innocent.
Thus, many even called Fahai the Demon Buddha.
All beings said he had a demon’s hand but a Buddha’s Mind; this was a true Buddha.
The other Celestial Immortal demon was furiously enraged, attacking recklessly with a black short sword in his hand, shooting straight towards Fahai’s brow.
If hit, Fahai’s Primordial Spirit would be nailed to death.
Fahai brought his hands together in prayer, his body radiating Buddha’s Light that blocked the short sword.
Then, with one hand, he seized the short sword, Buddha’s Light shimmering on his hand, directly destroying the weapon.
“Paltry tricks, how dare you show off your incompetence before me, behold the Mighty Heavenly Dragon,” roared Fahai, becoming the Flying Dragon in the Sky, charging directly at the two demons.
The two demon gods were terrified, sensing their impending death.
The pair were thrown into panic, no longer possessing the arrogance and bravado they had when facing other living beings.
The two Earth Immortal Realm priests showed excited expressions.
Finally witnessing Fahai the protector in action, legends claimed he was the first ruthless enforcer of Fruit Mountain, immensely powerful, second only to Immortal Master Lu and Ksitigarbha.
Now, it seemed to be true.
The two Celestial Immortal demons couldn’t stand more than a few moves against him.
Just at that moment, Fahai’s expression suddenly changed.
For his Heavenly Dragon had been blocked,
A greater power had intervened, repelling the Heavenly Dragon.
Denser Demonic Qi surged, signaling the arrival of another demon.
This was a Heavenly Venerate level demon, with formidable strength.
