“From where do you hail, monk? Such audacity!”

Hearing the monk dare to scold them, even the Military Judge couldn’t help but change his expression. However, upon seeing the faintly visible form of a Heavenly Dragon behind the monk, he realized the monk was no ordinary being. But after racking his brain, he still couldn’t figure out which Buddhist temple could cultivate such a manifestation of a Heavenly Dragon!

“This humble monk hails from the West Xi Lan Continent!”

The monk who had manifested the Heavenly Dragon stated his origins. However, upon hearing his origins, the numerous deities and spirits behind the Military Judge exchanged glances; they hadn’t even figured out how many Buddhist temples there were on their own Nan Hua Continent, and now someone pops up from the West Xi Lan Continent.

The reason for this confusion was the rumors of the reincarnation of an Immortal Monarch, which resulted in many high-ranking monks and real people visiting Da Jin in recent years, and hence they understood a bit about the regions outside of Da Jin.

Otherwise, they would still be confined to their small corners of the world, knowing nothing about the regions beyond Da Jin, let alone the so-called West Xi Lan Continent.

However, a monk capable of traversing from another continent to the Nan Hua Continent is surely someone with significant skill and perhaps noteworthy origins. But even so, what difference does it make? No matter the distance, this monk is no different than a wild monk without any background or origins. There is no need to be wary.

With this thought, the gaze of the Military Judge towards the monk underwent a change. Regardless, anyone who displays their divine power in the city breaks the rules, and the spirits have the right to arrest them.

“No matter where you come from, even if you are a monk from Shen Zhou, divine powers and magical skills are prohibited here. Monks may not disturb the citizens. You are to follow me to the Underworld, where the city’s deity will decide your punishment!”

The Military Judge made his proclamation. In the midst of his speech, this spectral judge reached out with a great hand, like a cloud hanging heavy, to seize the monk and take him to the Underworld to confront the city deity.

“You can tolerate abominations hiding amongst ordinary people, but you cannot tolerate me? Laughable!”

The stunningly handsome monk, whose formidable stature did not detract from his beauty, became even more furious at the apathetic attitude of the judges towards the crackdown on demons. The initially subtle apparition of the Heavenly Dragon behind him became clear and distinct.

“Impudent!”

However, the moment the Heavenly Dragon manifested completely, a dazzling divine light enveloped a city block. All anomalies, whether it was the Heavenly Dragon or a golden armored deity, disappeared from the citizens’ eyes, leaving only a sudden gust of peculiar wind and an impassive monk standing firm.

Divine power and magical skills must not be displayed before the mortal world. These were rules established by the deities and spirits of Da Jin. This was not merely an unspoken rule; it was explicitly decreed. Ordinary people who cannot cultivate their power are too weak in the face of demons and monsters. It’s better for them to remain unaware.

Sometimes knowing too much, but lacking the power to respond, can breed fear. If fear grips an individual, it’s inconsequential. But if thousands, even millions, are driven by fear, evil spirits can manifest. Ignorance is not necessarily a bad thing.

The offerings of the ordinary people can create many deities and spirits powerful enough to strike fear into great demons. The spirits created by the offerings of hundreds of ordinary people command even Immortal Monarchs’ respect.

The end of the dynasty was filled with demons. This was related to the turbulences of those years. Once the darkness in people’s hearts gets unleashed, it can give birth to a multitude of terrifying demons.

Boom!

The hand of the spectral judge, reaching out towards the monk, was stopped by the radiant Buddhist light from the Heavenly Dragon behind the monk, preventing it from falling any further.

“Indeed, he is a truly virtuous monk!”

Upon seeing the monk daring to have a public confrontation with the city’s spiritual officials, Feng Qing’an couldn’t help but be amazed. He had no intention of intervening, but was merely awestruck by the power displayed by the monk.

Both parties were in conflict due to a difference in their principles. It was natural for the spirits, who received the offerings of the people, to consider the people’s interests. This was their foundation, something the spirits could not possibly destroy.

However, even the most considerate spirits allowed the Carp spirit, which the monk wanted to capture, to marry and have children without interfering too much.

And yet this monk who just arrived began by capturing someone’s wife, causing quite a stir and making everyone uneasy.

The monk’s approach to dealing with demons was also out of his love for the Human Race. However, his approach was more extreme. He firmly believed that humans and demons cannot coexist, and that a human-demon romance was a violation of the heavenly laws and ethics.

“Good monk, this is the city of Fengtian, filled with commoners. I do not wish to harm the citizens. Do you dare to battle with me in the sky?”

Seeing this monk refuse to acknowledge his good intentions and daring to resist in public, the Military Judge did not make another move, but directly challenged him instead.

“Indeed, this humble monk had this intention!”

The monk was also dissatisfied with the attitude of the local spirits toward handling demons. If it was oversight, he wouldn’t have anything to say, as it is natural to overlook a few minor spirits in such a populous city. However, knowing that spirits can shelter demons made him want to have a debate with these spirits.

Now, considering that these spirits did not want to engage in a verbal dispute, he decided to communicate with them through the Buddhist teachings he had diligently practiced.

“Blessed be the Buddha. This humble monk will take his leave for a moment!”

The great and virtuous monk, who appeared to ordinary people, opened his eyes and then his figure suddenly disappeared, leaving no trace. This scene drew many Buddhist followers to kneel on the ground, chanting scriptures, loudly proclaiming the miraculous manifestation of Buddha!
