"Why, why?!"
"Is it really impossible for me to attain enlightenment? I've done so much for Buddhism and the common people. Is it all for naught?!"
"Lay down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha?"
"No, I don't want to!"
In the Dharma Yard, Sha Xin's expression kept changing. His eyes revealed his struggle and the Buddha's Light on his body flickered.
In the next moment, a strong burst of spiritual energy exploded from his body and turned into a storm, shattering the entire house!
The entire Dharma Yard was shaken!
Countless monks rushed out and looked in the direction of Sha Xin.
"What's going on? This aura belongs to the Chief."
"What's wrong with the Chief? Is there an enemy attack?"
The monks turned pale with fright and rushed toward the source of the killing intent.
All they saw was Sha Xin wearing a cloth robe and holding a long saber in his hand. He stood in the ruins and the Buddha's Light on his body flickered.
"Chief?"
One of the monks asked curiously.
At this moment, Sha Xin's body began to emit a murderous aura.
An old monk sensed that something was wrong and his expression changed. He pulled the monk back and shouted, "Step back!"
The crowd began to step back. A terrifying saber aura exploded from Sha Xin's body and sent the monks flying.
"Kill!"
"I'm not wrong!!"
Sha Xin's eyes were bloodshot. Holding the long saber in his hand, a terrifying saber aura circled around his body and swept toward the monks.
"Oh no, the Chief has gone berserk!"
"What's going on?"
At this moment, a majestic Buddha's Light appeared in the sky and a golden palm print came crashing down with the intention of suppressing Sha Xin.
However, Sha Xin slashed at the sky and tore the palm print apart. Hui Xin fell from the sky.
He looked at Sha Xin with a solemn expression. "What's going on? Why did Sha Xin suddenly go berserk?!"
"We don't know either. When we arrived, the Chief was already in this state." The monks were also puzzled.
Suddenly, Hui Xin saw a small booklet on the ground and pulled it over. His expression changed when he read the contents.
This was the booklet that he had given to Sha Xin yesterday. Could this booklet be the reason why Sha Xin suddenly went berserk?
Hui Xin could not help but blame himself at this thought.
"No, we must stop him!"
A vast Buddhist light surged from Hui Xin's body.
If Sha Xin was allowed to continue like this, he would completely turn into a demon. By then, even God Daluo would not be able to save him.
"Calm Heart Mantra!"
Hui Xin activated the Thunder Temple's Saint Technique.
A series of strange Sanskrit sounds reverberated in the air, bringing with it a mysterious Daoist Rhyme that attempted to pacify the murderous intent.
However, even this Sage Technique was useless against one's killing intent.
His eyes were bloodshot as he gripped the long blade in his hand tightly. He stared at Hui Xin before charging forward and slashing out with a terrifying blade!
The Saber Qi surged and turned into a huge saber shadow that was a hundred feet long.
Hui Xin put his palms together, and two golden palms appeared out of thin air to clamp down on the saber shadows. "Amitabha, Sha Xin, put down the butcher's knife!"
Hui Xin's shout was like a clap of thunder.
However, the look in Sha Xin's eyes changed. There was a flash of confusion, struggle, and other emotions before his face turned into madness. "Kill, kill! If I don't kill all of you devils, I won't put down my blade!! "
He roared as he channeled his spiritual power. The power of his saber qi increased tremendously, and cracks began to appear on the two giant palms formed by Hui Xin's Buddhist Light.
"If this goes on, Sha Xin will definitely fall into the demonic path!"
Hui Xin's expression was extremely solemn.
At that moment, a golden palm attack came from beside him and landed on Sha Xin, sending him flying dozens of feet away.
Chu Kuangren and Lan Yu walked up to him.
"Great Master, what's going on?"
Chu Kuangren asked curiously.
"Sha Xin has fallen into the demonic path," Hui Xin said.
"Kill, kill!"
Sha Xin, who was sent flying by the palm attack, charged forward again.
He gripped the long blade in his hand tightly as a terrifying murderous intent erupted from his body. His eyes were bloodshot as he charged towards Chu Kuangren and the others.
Chu Kuangren raised his hand and slapped the void.
A golden palm appeared out of thin air, wrapped in a majestic Buddhist Light and a majestic Daoist Rhyme, and it slapped towards Sha Xin.
"Giant Palm of Exorcism!"
To the monks, Sha Xin, who was extremely powerful, was once again sent flying by Chu Kuangren's simple move!
This kind of power caused everyone present to be moved.
"It's another Buddhist Technique that I've never seen before."
Hui Xin could not help but exclaim.
This made him even more certain that Chu Kuangren was a powerful Buddhist cultivator.
Sha Xin, who was sent flying, spat out a mouthful of blood. His bones and tendons began to crack, and his Buddhist Light dimmed. The murderous intent in his eyes was greatly weakened due to the sudden injury.
Seeing that, Chu Kuangren's Daoist Rhyme manifested, Buddhist Light surged, and Sanskrit chants appeared in the void. It was the Sage Technique, Calming Mantra!
Compared to Hui Xin, Chu Kuangren's Calming Mantra was much more exquisite. The murderous intent in Sha Xin's eyes dissipated, and his expression became peaceful again.
Hui Xin could not help but sigh at that.
He had been studying the Calming Mantra for so many years, yet he could not even compare to Sha Xin's half a day's worth of effort.
'Could he really be the reincarnation of a living Buddha?!'
Hui Xin secretly guessed.
However, now was not the time to discuss that. He quickly rushed to Sha Xin's side and helped him up.
"Sha Xin, are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Sha Xin smiled bitterly.
"What exactly caused you to go berserk?"
"I've been reading that booklet you gave me for the entire night. Those words were too profound, and I couldn't understand them. In the end, I realized that I've killed too many people over the years, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to attain enlightenment in this lifetime."
"When I thought of that, I couldn't accept it, and that's why I went berserk."
At that, Sha Xin looked a little dejected. It was as if he had aged, and the domineering aura he had before was nowhere to be seen.
"You're just too stubborn. Once you put down your blade, you can become a Buddha." Hui Xin quickly comforted him.
Sha Xin's expression kept changing, and he sighed. "From tomorrow onwards, I'll resign from the Dharma Institute's First Seat and go into closed-door meditation to gain enlightenment on Buddhist Dharma. Hopefully, I'll be able to dispel this evil aura within me."
Although he said that, he still looked extremely dejected.
He asked himself if he had done anything wrong. The people he had killed were people who deserved to be killed, so why did he have to suffer in the end?
Could this be the Buddha's test?
"Idiot!"
At that moment, Chu Kuangren, who was beside him, shouted!
Upon hearing that, everyone looked at him in confusion.
"I've never seen a cultivator as stupid as you." Chu Kuangren looked at Sha Xin and said indifferently.
Sha Xin's expression darkened. "What do you mean, Brother Chu?"
"You haven't resolved the knot in your heart, yet you want to dispel your evil aura and prove your Buddhist Core. That's destroying your own future. If that's not stupid, then what is?"
"But if I don't do that, how can I attain enlightenment?"
"Those people you've killed, do they deserve to die?"
"They deserve to die!" Sha Xin said coldly.
"If they deserve to die, then you're not at fault. Don't you think that you're at fault? Put down your blade, and you'll become a Buddha. You've put down the blade in your hand, but how can you put down the blade in your heart?!"
Sha Xin's eyes were once again filled with struggle and confusion. As his expression changed, a murderous intent surfaced again.
Hui Xin, who was beside him, was shocked. 'It can't be, right? Did Chu Kuangren's words really drive Sha Xin into berserk again?'
"Brother Chu, please teach me, what should I do?" Sha Xin asked Chu Kuangren with his last shred of rationality.
Chu Kuangren replied indifferently, "I'll leave you with a sentence. Kill to protect, but not to kill!!"
