Qin Tian couldn't stand being threatened, and his temper suddenly rose.
"Then I want to see how you want me to regret it."
"???"
"!!!"
Red Boy and Black Bear looked at Qin Tian with admiring expressions on their faces.
The two of them were not ignorant of Zhu Jue's strength. If Guanyin hadn't arrived in time just now, the two of them would have been no match for Zhu Jue.
But when Qin Tian faced Zhu Jue, not only did he not have the slightest fear, he even dared to openly provoke him.
He is worthy of being the man who made a big fuss at the Peach Club!
If it weren't for Guanyin's presence, the two of them would have given Qin Tian a thumbs up.
“This is unreasonable!!!”
Zhu Jue's face was ferocious, he gritted his back molars angrily, and clenched his fists as big as sandbags.
From the moment he saw Qin Tian, Zhu Jue had already taken a look at him. His cultivation was not as good as his own a few hundred years ago.
Even a few hundred years ago, no one would dare to provoke himself like this.
Not to mention that the other party is just a mediocre person.
Zhu Jue glanced at Guanyin from the corner of his eyes.
If you can endure being provoked by such a person in front of Yan Yan, then how can you still have the dignity to come to him again in the future?
"This God will help you today!"
After the words fell, Zhu Jue clenched his fist and smashed it towards Qin Tian, while the fire in his body surged.
The fist contained incomparably scorching heat, and along with the flames, it hit Qin Tian.
In an instant, Qin Tian felt a sting on his skin, as if it was about to be roasted.
This punch gave people a very strong sense of oppression, as if several times of gravity had been exerted on the body, making it impossible to move.
If any cultivator were to receive this punch head-on, they would be reduced to ashes in an instant.
But Qin Tian was not afraid.
He has a debt, so he can escape safely from dangerous situations.
"Enough!"
Just when Qin Tian was about to use his thoughts, Guanyin Bodhisattva stretched out his hand to block Qin Tian and protected him behind him.
Looking at the stern-faced Guanyin Bodhisattva, Zhu Jue's expression froze, his punched fist stopped in mid-air, and he looked at the Guanyin Bodhisattva with a complicated expression.
"Yan...Yan Yan, why are you protecting him? Isn't the person you like the most like me?"
Um?
Qin Tian's pupils trembled slightly, as if he had heard some explosive news.
Does Bodhisattva like him?
Qin Tian looked at Zhu Jue and then at Guanyin. His eyes couldn't stop being curious and wanted to know the details.
Guanyin Bodhisattva did not notice Qin Tian's expression, but looked at Zhu Jue with an indifferent expression, his eyes full of boredom.
"Zhu Jue, I never said I like you, and please don't bother me again in the future!"
"The debt collector is a distinguished guest of my Purple Bamboo Forest. Besides..."
Guanyin paused, with a hint of appreciation in his tone, "With his ability to collect debts, he doesn't need me to protect him at all."
After Zhu Jue heard this, his pupils trembled, and his eyes were full of jealousy, hatred, and unwillingness.
He pointed at Qin Tian and roared, "He is nothing but trash, why can he be a distinguished guest of Zizhulin!"
"That's enough!" Guanyin said with a sullen look on her face, "Red Boy, Black Bear Spirit, see you off."
After saying this, Guanyin Bodhisattva turned to look at Qin Tian and smiled softly, "Let's go in."
Seeing that Guanyin Bodhisattva and Qin Tian were about to disappear from sight, Zhu Jue roared
"Have you forgotten the agreement between us?"
Guanyin Bodhisattva paused and looked at it with his peripheral vision. Zhu Jue, who was behind his eyes, spoke calmly.
"I have never made any agreement with Zhujue Vulcan."
After saying this, Guanyin Bodhisattva led Qin Tian into the purple bamboo forest without looking back.
Looking at the backs of Qin Tian and Guanyin shoulder to shoulder, Zhu Jue's heart was filled with anger.
"Zhu Jue, God of Fire, please leave." Hong Hai'er stretched out her hand to make a 'please' gesture and gave Zhu Jue an order to expel guests.
Zhu Jue gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, "I don't believe you can be so heartless."
After saying that, Zhu Jue turned around and drove away in the clouds, disappearing outside the purple bamboo forest.
At this time, Qin Tian was following the footsteps of Guanyin Bodhisattva into the purple bamboo forest. When he heard the roar outside the forest, he turned around and looked behind him.
"Bodhisattva, what is your relationship with that Zhujue Fire God?"
Guanyin Bodhisattva showed a helpless and complicated look on his face.
"It's nothing, it's just some bad luck, so don't mention it. Besides, this matter has nothing to do with you, so it's better if you don't ask."
Qin Tian chuckled and said
"Then Zhujue Fire God obviously has a grudge against me. If he seeks revenge from me one day, then I have to know what abilities he has so that I can take precautions, right?"
"With the ability of a debt collector, do you still need to take precautions early?" Guanyin asked back.
Even the Jade Emperor and Luo Hu can't do anything to Qin Tian, so why should they be afraid of a fire god?
Qin Tian smiled awkwardly. He couldn't say that he really wanted to take precautions in advance. He could only spread his hands and pretend to be curious.
"Isn't this curiosity!"
Seeing that Qin Tian didn't want to break the casserole and ask the question, Guanyin sighed and finally spoke.
"Well, since the debt collector wants to know, I will tell you."
"Everything begins hundreds of years ago. I still remember that year was the year when the poor Taoist attained nirvana, became a Buddha, and was enshrined..."
It turns out that the reason why Guanyin Bodhisattva has always been a Bodhisattva is because of his enlightenment.
Hundreds of years ago, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva had perfected his merits and was able to reach Nirvana and become a Buddha.
But because of rescuing Zhu Jue, Guanyin gave up the opportunity to become a Buddha.
All of this begins when Zhu Jue first enters the divine realm.
At that time, Zhu Jue had only cultivated for less than a century, and was already at the peak of the Golden Immortal Stage. He was regarded as a talented immortal cultivator in the Three Realms.
In addition, Zhu Jue inherited Zhu Rong's Vulcan bloodline, so he is more youthful and energetic.
Zhu Jue took advantage of his own cultivation and the presence of Heavenly Fire to go around creating troubles.
Such as Ling Xuzi, the scholar in white, the white-bone spirit, the jade-faced princess... He had all given a lesson to these monsters who had some names in Journey to the West.
So much so that for a period of time, many monsters in the God Realm hated Zhu Jue and gnashed their teeth.
It is no exaggeration to say that those monsters' hatred for Zhu Jue back then was no weaker than Qin Tian's now.
Finally, a group of monsters headed by the toad spirit, the jade-faced fox, and the white-bone spirit could not stand Zhu Jue's repeated provocations and launched a large-scale pursuit of him.
Nearly 30,000 monsters from four continents rounded up Zhu Jue.
Although Zhu Jue had the cultivation level of the Golden Immortal at his peak and the blessing of Heavenly Fire, he still couldn't stand against the large number of people on the other side.
After three days and three nights of fighting, Zhu Jue was finally defeated and escaped on a cloud.
Zhu Jue fled all the way and came to a dense forest in Hezhou, Xiniu.
Those demons and monsters soon caught up with Zhu Jue. By then, Zhu Jue was exhausted and could only retreat and fight, looking for opportunities to escape.
At this moment, Guanyin and several other Bodhisattvas who were about to reach Nirvana and become Buddhas passed by
I happened to see this scene here.
The merciful and compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva felt pity for Zhu Jue when he saw him being chased by many demons and monsters.
However, the road to becoming a Buddha is urgent. If you miss this opportunity, you will never become a Buddha again.
So Guanyin chose to turn a blind eye and went to Lingshan with several other Bodhisattvas.
Soon, Guanyin Bodhisattva and several other Bodhisattvas came to the Great Leiyin Temple in Lingshan.
In the Daleiyin Temple, the Buddha sits on a lotus platform, and the Buddha's light illuminates the entire hall.
"Venerable Yang Yan, you have accumulated good deeds for a hundred lifetimes and practiced cultivation for more than a thousand years. Your merits have been perfected for a long time. Today, I will grant you the Holy Buddha of Great Aspiration."
"Zi Zhuo Bodhisattva, you have done good deeds and accumulated virtue for ninety-nine lifetimes. Your merits have been perfected. Today I will grant you the Perfect Buddha."
"Venerable She Jia..."
While other Bodhisattva sages were being consecrated to Buddhahood, Guanyin looked absent-minded, and his mind was always filled with the scene of Zhu Jue being chased by many demons and monsters.
At this time, all the other Bodhisattvas had completed their conferrals, and only Guanyin Bodhisattva remained.
The Tathagata casts his sights on Avalokitesvara, "South China Sea Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva!"
Guanyin Bodhisattva was still deep in thought and did not hear the Buddha's call. The other Bodhisattvas who had become Buddhas all looked over.
"South China Sea Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva?"
Guanyin Bodhisattva finally came to his senses, took two steps forward, and knelt respectfully in front of the Tathagata.
"Please forgive me, Buddha."
The Tathagata did not blame Guanyin, but looked at a certain corner, and if he meant to say, "Guanyin Bodhisattva, do you think it is the wind outside that is moving, or the trees that are moving?"
Guanyin looked in the direction of Tathagata, and there was nothing in front of him except the golden dome of the Great Leiyin Temple. Not to mention the trees, there was not even a trace of breeze.
Guanyin quickly understood the meaning of Tathagata's words, lowered his head and replied, "Return to me, Buddha, it is neither the wind nor the trees that are moving, it is the young monk's heart that is moving."
"There is no worry in the heart, so there is no worry, there is no fear, stay away from upside-down dreams, do you understand?"
Tathagata's words focus on the heart and the truth.
Tathagata can see through Guanyin's unfinished thoughts at a glance. If you want to become a Buddha, you need to be free from worries and see through the world of mortals.
Guanyin is a Bodhisattva who observes all suffering in the world, so how can he cut off the mortal world?
If Guanyin is gone this time and her heart is focused on something else, even if she becomes a Buddha, she will become a demon in her life.
After being reminded by the Tathagata, Avalokitesvara was enlightened, stood up and bowed deeply to the Tathagata, "Thank you very much, Buddha, for your guidance."
"Buddhist gates should be closed immediately, go ahead."
Guanyin Bodhisattva stepped on the lotus platform and flew to Buddhism without looking back.
After leaving Daleiyin Temple, Guanyin flew directly to the woods where Zhu Jue died.
When Guanyin arrived in the woods, Zhu Jue could hardly hold on anymore. He fell to the ground with scars all over his body and was surrounded by demons and ghosts from all directions.
The toad spirit raised the big knife in his hand and looked at Zhu Jue lying on the ground with a ferocious expression.
"Today, we will let you know the consequences of offending us!"
"If you want to kill me, kill me. If I hum, I will be your grandson!"
Even though the sword was already in front of him, Zhu Jue's mouth was still harder than anything else.
"Okay, grandpa, I will make it happen for you today!"
As soon as the voice fell, the knife fell from his hand.
At this moment, Guanyin pinched the orchid finger and flicked it lightly.
There was a "bang" sound, and the big knife in the toad spirit's hand broke and broke into two pieces.
The broken blade rubbed Zhu Jue's neck and fell to the ground.
"Gudong!"
Looking at the clear blood mark on his neck, Zhu Jue swallowed Water, I still have lingering fears.
It's not that he is really not afraid of death, it's just that as Zhu Rong's son, he can't lose his dignity as the God of Fire even if he dies.
The toad spirit looked at the only half of the hilt of the knife left in his hand, and suddenly became furious, shouting curses in the air.
"That blind grandson dares to meddle..."
Before he could say the word "thing", he saw Guanyin Bodhisattva standing on a lotus platform with colorful Buddha lights behind him.
The toad spirit suddenly looked frightened and fell to his knees with a pale face.
"It turns out to be Guanyin Bodhisattva. I didn't know it was you coming just now. Please ask the compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva to let me go. I won't dare to do it again."
"Please spare your life for Guanyin Pizza!"
Seeing this, the white-bone spirits, white-faced foxes and other monsters also knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Guanyin and begged for mercy.
"Guanyin?"
Zhu Jue was curious and looked up. When he saw Guanyin, his eyes immediately straightened.
"Okay, so beautiful..."
Under the colorful Buddha light, Guanyin is covered in flawless white clothes, which is even more stunning than those graceful fairies in heaven.
At this time, Guanyin did not notice Zhu Jue's reaction, but looked at the monsters and said without any room for retort, "A hundred miles away is the Great Leiyin Temple, the pure land of Buddhism. You guys, why don't you retreat quickly!"
"Yes, yes..."
The toad spirit nodded repeatedly, not daring to show any disobedience: "We'll leave now!"
After saying that, Toad Spirit stood up, pointed at Zhu Jue and ordered to a group of subordinates, "Take him away too!"
Just as Zhu Jue breathed a sigh of relief, he saw several monsters walking towards him with ferocious looks.
If it falls into their hands, the outcome will be worse than death.
Zhu Jue gritted his teeth and forced his already depleted Dantian to activate, intending to fight them to the death.
But at this moment, Guanyin said again, "Wait."
Hearing the sound, several of his men stopped and turned to look at the toad spirit, asking for instructions.
The toad spirit showed a flattering smile, bowed his body and cupped his fists towards Guanyin, saying respectfully
"I wonder if you have any other instructions, Bodhisattva?"
Guanyin stretched out her green index finger, pointed at Zhu Jue, and slowly said, "Keep him here."
"This..." The toad spirit showed a troubled look on his face, "Guanyin Bodhisattva, this man has killed hundreds of my brothers. If I don't capture him, I'm afraid I will be sorry for my dead brothers."
"The life and death of your brothers have long been determined, but his death date has not yet come, so you cannot take him away today."
Guanyin's tone was decisive and did not allow for the slightest rebuttal.
The toad spirit, the other white-bone spirits, the jade-faced fox and other monsters looked at each other, and finally gritted their teeth and decided to let Zhu Jue go.
"Now that Guanyin has spoken, how dare we not obey?"
After saying that, he gave Zhu Jue a hard look and left the woods with the other monsters.
After the monsters had gone away, Guanyin waved the willow in her hand again, and the nectar from the willow branches fell on Zhu Jue's body.
But in the blink of an eye, the scars on Zhu Jue's body disappeared, and even his long-depleted energy was restored.
Zhu Jue touched his body and looked ecstatic.
He got up from the ground, knelt on the ground, and looked up at Guanyin in the sky with admiration on his face.
"Thank you, Master Guanyin, for saving me."
Guanyin shook her head, with a smile as bright as a flower: "Please invite the God of Fire to Zhujue. It's just a simple task for a poor monk. God of Fire, Zhujue, doesn't need to thank you."
Zhu Jue looked surprised and a little proud, "Master Guanyin, do you know me?"
