Chapter 496: Chapter 233: Entering the Formation

Jifen Mountain, Wu Wang Forest!

This forest is deep and its trees are lush; the terrain is peculiar and unpredictable.

In the mountains, fog often arises; once the dense fog envelops you, even after taking just a few steps, you can no longer find the path you ca from.

Hence the na: Wu Wang (Forgetfulness in Fog)!

It ans ‘Seeing Fog Forget the Way Ho’.

Deep in the forest, a group of monks, either falling or sitting, gathered together.

Above their heads poured a downpour, surrounded by the dense woodlands.

The group was nearing their limits.

If not for tonight’s sudden heavy rain, they would be both thirsty and hungry by now.

Now… the thirst has eased sowhat.

But as a result, the sensation of hunger has grown even more intense.

So among them couldn’t resist looking around for sothing to eat.

Ultimately, their eyes settled on a little monk.

The little monk was holding a wooden bowl, catching a bowl full of water, and slurped it contentedly.

As if sensing malice, he instinctively looked towards the direction of the gaze.

The observing monk forced a smile:

“Little Brother… would you, would you co with ?”

“Big Brother, are you so hungry that you want to eat ?”

The little monk paused for a mont, then stood up and went to his side, saying:

“I am too little; what good is there to the taste of my flesh, nothing but the ingestion of hair and blood? Surely it cannot be pleasant.”

“I…I…”

The monk was stunned. He thought that once the little monk realized his intention, he should be scared or go and tell the master.

Instead, he was t with such a response.

For a mont, he was left speechless.

But then, as hunger burned like fire within him, malice rekindled, and through gritted teeth, he said:

“Little Brother, I… I am really about to die from hunger, could you, could you let take a bite? Just one bite!!”

“Alright.”

The little monk nodded and said, “But we can’t eat here; Master would scold you if he saw.

“Let’s walk a little further, just a bit further, out of sight from the Master, so he won’t see.”

“…You, you…”

The Evil Monk, upon hearing the sowhat childish voice of the little monk, was montarily struck with panic:

“Are you… aren’t you afraid?”

How could one face such a dangerous situation with calm?

This little brother, usually so obsessed with wealth, was he even human?

“I am afraid.”

The little monk nodded, his face filled with timidity: “But Master said that the Buddha once sacrificed his body to feed a hawk.

“Since I’ve been practicing Buddhist Law with Master from a young age, I naturally should follow the Buddha’s example.

“We’ve been trapped for a long ti, and even though there’s a way to free myself, I don’t know if I can hold on for much longer.

“I’m about to starve to death.

“Maybe in a mont or three, I’ll be dead.

“If I die of hunger, Big Brother won’t have any flesh to eat, and you will starve to death too.

“However, if Big Brother can survive by eating my flesh,

“Then it would be considered my rit fulfilled.”

After saying that, he put down the wooden bowl in his hand and placed his palms together:

“Amitabha.”

After finishing speaking, he bent down to pick up the wooden bowl and gave the Evil Monk a smile.

This ordinary smile made the Evil Monk speechless for a long ti.

His whole being seed frozen, and suddenly, he burst into loud crying.

He hugged the little monk tightly and, with a strength erging from nowhere, quickly reached an elderly monk.

The elder monk was ditating with closed eyes and opened them upon hearing the commotion.

He saw the Evil Monk kneeling before him, crying out:

“Master, I have committed grave sins, I am deeply sinful!”

Master Hongyun sighed softly, reached out to touch the little monk’s head, and then asked:

“What sins have you committed?”

“I, I wanted to eat the Little Brother! I am heavily sinful, beyond redemption!!”

“Did you eat him?”

“No… but, but I harbored the thought, a wicked intent.”

“Can this intent be eradicated?”

“It’s already gone; Little Brother made … utterly ashad.”

“With the evil thoughts removed, compassion arises naturally.

“Now that you have gained this insight today, you should uphold this compassionate heart and never forget it.”

“I… I realize my wrongs.”

The Evil Monk bowed his head, and despite his evil appearance, he now possessed a serene and compassionate deanor, having truly realized his wrongs.

Master Hongyun then turned his gaze to the little monk and sighed softly:

“You must be very hungry too, right?”

“I’m hungry.”

The little monk nodded gently.

Master Hongyun looked around and sighed lightly:

“What hour is it now?”

“It’s almost halfway past the wei hour.”

A monk nearby with lowered eyes and a gentle voice answered.

“It’s almost ti.”

Master Hongyun’s eyebrows furrowed slightly: “Every night, halfway past the wei hour, that lingering Demon Sound arises. All disciples, heed my command, guard the spiritual platform steadfastly, and do not waver!”

“Yes!”

The monks around him, whether falling or sitting, imdiately complied with alertness.

The little monk also nodded solemnly.

Master Hongyun couldn’t help but smile: “You don’t have to…”

But as he looked up again, his gaze t Shou i’s, who slightly raised an eyebrow:

“They trapped us here, aiming to wear down our physical strength, spirits, and willpower.

“If we let them succeed, we’ll fall into their hands and beco re puppets for the Evil Demon’s amusent.

“We must not sit idly by to death…

“After the Demon Sound tonight, all disciples follow out!

“Either… we subdue the demons and slay the Evil!

“Or… we find peace in nirvana and return to heaven!”

The disciples, upon hearing these words, showed no fear; they would rather fight to the death than freeze and starve here alive.

Master Hongyun lowered his gaze, thinking of the desperate situation they were all in.
