I Don't Want to Get Hurt, So I'll Max Out My Defense Chapter 1272

Chapter 1272: Chapter 1273: The Sky Is Falling Chapter 1272: Chapter 1273: The Sky Is Falling “Luanyu, make a trip to the Great Thunderclap Temple, and report everything that happened here in detail to Master Wuyuzi. We must ask for his intervention and decision!”

Abbot Huyan made a decisive move, plunging alone into the crowd below. He recited scriptures, the sound of thunder roaring in the void, the mellifluous tones of the Dao reverberating, as golden thunder and lightning intertwined. Thunderclaps boomed as colorful rays of light descended from the clouds, enveloping the many monks below.

At this moment, he finally understood why the Heavenly Dragon Temple would also witness the extraordinary phenomenon of the Six Syllable Mantra; they had encountered a situation identical to his!

The Six Syllable Mantra of the Saint Realm's powerful cultivators was dominantly unassailable and aggressively exceptional. But at this moment, the entire Bodhi Temple was shrouded in an aura of Huazi, the air filled with the breath of Huazi, momentarily reaching a stalemate with the seven-colored Buddhist light.

“This is the Six Syllable Mantra of the Buddhist Sect, a sacred text exclusively for converting others!”

“It's this very thing that's caused me to waste decades of my life within Bodhi Temple!”

“Damn!”

“This is to take advantage of us having no Saint Realm powerhouses to rely on!”

“Run first!”

Seeing Abbot Master personally take action, the monks' pupils shrank. At this moment, they were in a state of full clarity, acutely aware of the consequences of Master Huyan's intervention. Seizing the moment while the effect of Huazi had not yet faded, streaks of golden light shot into the sky, scattering in all directions.

“Amitabha Buddha!”

“None shall escape today!”

Abbot Huyan's expression was sinister, his body emitting waves of terrify energy fluctuations. Countless streams of colorful lights fell down, forming a prison that fiercely enveloped the cultivators trying to escape.

The Six Syllable Mantra, laden with the thick Power of Faith, surged like waves toward the monks inside the temple, indoctrinating friends and foes alike.

“Blood Demon Sect, Xueyuan, you have misled me!”

“My temple nearly succumbed to ruin at your hands, this account is taken into account, I shall demand a reckoning in the future, doubly so!”

Abbot Huyan's facial muscles twitched as he exerted his full power in deploying the Six Syllable Mantra. In that instant, a rainbow of Buddhist light shone across the sky, guiding the way for Buddha Country like a lighthouse.

At the same time.

Inside the Great Thunderclap Temple.

Numerous cultivator monks stared intently at the brilliant rainbow-colored Buddhist light in the void, those who cultivated Buddhism recognized it as the Buddhist divine power of the Six Syllable Mantra, usually used to convert the masses. Now, unexpectedly, it had risen within Bodhi Temple, somewhat baffling.

Could it be that a master is lecturing on Buddhist scriptures inside the temple and, in the midst of enthusiasm, has started to deploy the Six Syllable Mantra?

A streak of light landed, with Monk Luanyu not bothering to let disciples communicate, he boldly barged into the temple, his formidable presence making it hard for the passing cultivators to catch their breath, as if entering a domain without anyone else.

The cultivators were somewhat puzzled, not understanding what could make the other party rush so urgently.

“Isn't this Master Luanyu from Bodhi Temple? How come he has the time to visit our Great Thunderclap Temple today? Seeing him so flustered, could it be that a significant incident has occurred within Bodhi Temple?”

“Otherwise, why use such a grand display of the Six Syllable Mantra?”

“Perhaps there was another Saint Realm powerhouse who took action against them. At this time, is Master Huyan using the Six Syllable Mantra to defend against the enemy, intending to convert the adversary?”

The monks speculated about what could have possibly happened in Bodhi Temple, yet no one could provide an answer. Monk Luanyu, like a golden flash of lightning, disappeared from the monks' vision in an instant.

Within the Great Thunderclap Temple, the main hall.

Abbot Wuyan, with his hands clasped behind his back, was pacing back and forth within the hall, while the Monk Wuyan stood by his side, watching Abbot Luanyu with an indifferent gaze.

“Master Wuyuzi, now that the Blood Demon Sect has bared its fangs, intending to strike us, a mere probing move has almost destroyed the unbreakable foundation of our Buddhist Sect that has stood for a thousand years. Please make a decision early to settle this matter!”

Abbot Luanyu's forehead was beading with cold sweat as he brought his hands together, bowing deeply as he spoke.

“This trouble is all brought about by your greed. If you hadn't coveted those high-quality Immortal Stones, how could the Blood Demon Sect have found the opportunity to enter?”

“This is what you get for bringing disaster upon yourselves – you sealed your own fates!”

Monk Wuyan snorted coldly, his scolding came down like a torrential downpour. He understood the situation clearly – had these temples maintained their integrity, refusing ill-gotten gains, how could they have fallen prey to the schemes of the Blood Demon Sect?

“Yes, yes, you're right, Master Wuyan. Currently, Master Huyan is at Bodhi Temple trying to make amends for his mistakes. I have been sent here to report the full details of the incident, and also to serve as a warning bell for our Buddhist Sect. Our former allies are no longer reliable at this moment!”

“The Blood Demon Sect is moving against the Buddhist Sect; they're starting by targeting the Power of Faith!”

Abbot Luanyu's body trembled, speaking with a hint of urgency.

“Did you just say that Heavenly Dragon Temple has also encountered the same incident, and you've seen the Six Syllable Mantra shimmering above their temple?”

After a lengthy silence, Wuyuzi asked indolently.

Abbot Luanyu nodded: “Indeed, that's the case.”

“Has this Xueyuan been to other temples, has this Magic Treasure named Huazi appeared anywhere else besides your two temples?”

Wuyuzi continued to inquire.

“This… This monk does not know, please do not blame Abbot, the incident happened so unexpectedly, we haven't had the time to tally the losses,” said Abbot Luanyu.

“Enough, go back now. This old monk is already aware of the situation and it will be resolved. No matter how many cultivators Huazi has stripped of their Power of Faith, you must redeem them all without exception for me. Otherwise, if the Power of Faith collapses, the Buddhist Sect will face crisis, and the heavens will fall on us!”

“If heaven were to fall, the first to be crushed would be you and me, I don't need to explain this, do I?”

Wuyuzi's eyes were chillingly cold, his speech laced with an icy tone and brimming with murderous intent.

“This monk will make his way back hastily and exert all efforts to suppress the rebellion and redeem the living beings!”

Abbot Luanyu, frightened into a shiver, bowed deeply as he took his leave, fleeing from Great Thunderclap Temple as if flying.

“Abbot brother, how should this matter be dealt with?”

“Does your younger brother need to take action?”

Once Luanyu had left, only the two of them remained in the hall. Monk Wuyan spoke.

“You quickly lead the Arhat Hall to investigate the entire Buddha Country. Find out exactly how many Buddhist monks have partaken of Huazi. Without exception, all need to be redeemed anew. Bodhi Temple and Heavenly Dragon Temple have been established for hundreds of years – minor turmoil is not enough to shake the foundation and will soon subside; there is no need for us to personally intervene.”

“I did not expect the backlash from the Blood Demon Sect to come so swiftly. Originally, our great-uncle joined forces with Xueshenzi to imprison that pair of old men, Yitilou and Yan Zuzi, in the Buddhist Pagoda, leading to constant interactions between the two sides. Never did I imagine that shortly after Yitilou and Yan Zuzi escaped from the pagoda to ascend to heaven, the Blood Demon Sect would turn on us!”

“A Magic Treasure that can unravel the Power of Faith–if this item were to spread, there would be no place for our Buddhist Sect in the Central Origin Realm! Immediately conduct a thorough investigation across the entire Western Continent and we must intercept that Xueyuan!”

“I have many questions to personally ask him!”

Wuyuzi said coldly.
