Chapter 146
<!-- Before Content -->
The leading Buddha Son has the Dharma name of ‘Ci En’.
After hearing Jiang Chen’s words, Ci En became even more convinced that this “Zhang Hu” was undoubtedly a demonic monk from the Upper Domain!
This gave Ci En a great headache.
Lately, the Buddha Temple had been experiencing strange events.
First, the Jiuyan Sect’s Mu Kui drove several preaching monks mad.
Then Lin Feng from the Jiuyan Sect came, causing a great disturbance in the Buddha Temple with his strong combat skills and ancient techniques.
Now, a demonic monk from the Upper Domain had arrived…

Thinking of this, Ci En glanced at the still-suspended, rotating Six Syllable Mantra and immediately understood that it must be a superior grade Buddhist Sect scripture.Otherwise, its power to ‘convert’ would not be so strong.
He glanced again at Jiang Chen.
No matter how he looked at it, Jiang Chen, who had transformed into a several zhang tall golden body was at the Earthly Origin realm!
How could a Core Formation cultivator learn a superior-grade technique?
Are Upper Domain cultivators all this impressive?
He couldn’t understand, really couldn’t understand!
Jiang Chen’s profound Buddhist techniques were beyond comprehension, and the fact that he could practice a superior-grade secret scripture was even more baffling!
What’s more important is, the Buddha aura emanating from Jiang Chen felt very familiar to Ci En!
The ‘Buddha Stupa Sutra’ is a superior-grade secret scripture that even the Six Buddha sons of the Buddha Temple could not learn due to their cultivation limitations.
For this reason, the Buddha Temple extracted the essence of the ‘Buddha Stupa Sutra’ to create the ‘Buddha Stupa Zen Method’, a superior Buddhist technique specifically for the Six Buddha sons to practice.
Both techniques originated from the same source, which is to say, they are like father and son.
Therefore, in addition to feeling a kinship with Jiang Chen’s Buddhist techniques, they also had a natural sense of fear.
It was because of this fear that the Buddha sons did not attack immediately upon their arrival.
Also, the Temple would completely lose face if all the Buddha sons of the Buddha Temple were defeated.
Considering Jiang Chen’s mysterious identity, Ci En straightforwardly stated his position.
“Demonic monk, if you leave the Buddha Temple, we will let bygones be bygones.”
Let bygones be bygones?
Jiang Chen sneered.
Such a smile was extremely incongruous with his current appearance.
After all, at this moment, he had a tri-colored halo above his head, his golden body several zhang tall, and from time to time, he would chant “Amitabha.”
From Jiang Chen’s smile, Ci En received his answer.
After shaking his head, Ci En spoke no further.
“My Buddha is merciful, you have fallen into evil.”
He brought his hands together, closed his eyes slightly, and murmured softly.
In an instant, Buddhist light emanated from his body, and with the help of the relics within him, the light shone even brighter.
Bathed in the Buddhist light, his skin gradually took on a golden hue, and his body began to grow larger.
In just a few breaths, he had formed a huge golden body resembling a solemn Buddha statue, with Buddhist chants whispering around him.
Then, Ci En opened his eyes, about to say something, when he suddenly froze.
‘Why is my golden body shorter than this demonic monk’s?!’
Looking up, he blinked in confusion.
This shouldn’t be happening!

He clearly remembered when he usually transformed into a golden body, he should be about the same height as Jiang Chen at this moment!
What’s with this sudden reduction?
Others looking at him would have to look down! Wasn’t this already at a disadvantage before the fight had even started?
“Is that it?” Jiang Chen’s mocking voice indeed rang out.
“I personally took action last time and captured the cultivator who caused trouble at the Buddha Temple. It’s just that I’m not in my best state right now,” Ci En said, trying to save face.
Monks do not lie, and neither did he.
Because it was indeed the case, and only this explanation could account for this bizarre phenomenon.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen’s eyes lit up.
Since Ci En personally captured Lin Feng and threw him into the Six Prisons, couldn’t he also enter the Six Prisons if he surrendered without a fight?
“To your view, are my sins grave enough to enter the Six Prisons of Buddha?” Jiang Chen asked, just to be sure.
“The Six Prisons of Buddha are not for those with light sins.”
Ci En truthfully replied, “You demonic monk, although you have misled others, killed several people from the Buddha Temple, and your malevolent energy is too strong, you still do not qualify. You must be liberated on the spot!”
“…Tsk.”
Jiang Chen clicked his tongue.
He was very dissatisfied with this answer.
He couldn’t understand.
Why was it so difficult for a villain like him to enter the Six Prisons?
Everyone wanted to liberate and convert him on the spot?
Since they said he didn’t qualify, then he would just have to qualify more! “Bald donkey, don’t be ungrateful!”
Jiang Chen’s eyes turned cold, laying his cards on the table: “If you want me to go to the Six Prisons of Buddha, I will gladly go! Otherwise…”
“Otherwise?” Ci En pressed.
“Otherwise, I will beat you bald donkeys until you spit out your relics today!” Jiang Chen’s voice was like that of an evil Buddha.
“Arrogant!”
Ci En shouted angrily, suddenly furious.
He was the first Buddha son of the Buddha Temple and had never heard such arrogant words!
In his rage, the Buddhist light around him became even more dazzling, and his golden body seemed to grow taller.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen fully activated the Buddha Stupa Sutra, also shouting loudly: “Acting so arrogantly in front of your father? What do you need such a large golden body for? Become smaller for me!”
Upon hearing these words, the watching Buddha sons all sneered.
Is that a joke?
You say smaller and it becomes smaller? Do you really think you’re the Buddha…
“…It really got smaller?!” one of the Buddha sons exclaimed.
The other Buddha sons were also rubbing their eyes in disbelief.
Just as Jiang Chen’s voice fell, the golden body formed by Ci En’s Buddhist techniques indeed shrank a bit!
Originally, Ci En only needed to look up to see Jiang Chen.
But now, he had to tilt his head upward!
“Senior Brother, how can you listen to this demonic monk?”
“He tells you to become smaller, and you shrink? He’s not the Buddha, why comply with him?”
“Senior Brother, quickly return to your original size. Don’t be ridiculous!”
“Senior Brother, if you keep this up, Junior Brother will have to take your place!”
“In this scene, if the other brothers see this, what will they think? Senior Brother, you’re not only losing your own face but also the face of the Buddha!”

After a brief moment of shock, the Buddha sons all began to speak.
Hearing these words, Ci En’s expression darkens.
Just as he was about to say something, he heard Jiang Chen say: “You’re still wet behind the ears, what use do you have this golden body for? Disperse for me!”
“Bang—”
The Buddhist light around Ci En instantly dissipated like air.
And with the disappearance of the Buddhist light, his golden body naturally could not sustain itself and slowly faded away.
This sight left the other Buddha sons completely dumbfounded.
“I… I…”
After completely returning to his original form, Ci En himself couldn’t believe it and was almost crying:
“I can’t control myself!!”
At this moment, the Buddha sons finally noticed something was amiss.
Remembering Jiang Chen’s familiar Buddhist techniques, an unbelievable thought emerged in everyone’s minds.
“Impossible, absolutely impossible!” Ci En stood still, shaking his head repeatedly.
The other Buddha sons also shook their heads, trying to dismiss the thought from their minds.
But Jiang Chen did not intend to give them the chance to deceive themselves.
“Amitabha.”
With the Buddhist chant, he once again fully activated the Buddha Stupa Sutra within him.
At the same time, the incense from temples within dozens of miles turned into countless serpents of smoke, converging towards him, gathering and solidifying.
Blessed by the Dharma and the incense offerings, Jiang Chen’s golden aura soared again, reaching over thirty feet high, and the tri-colored halo above his head transformed into a five-colored one. His gaze was lofty, overlooking all beings.
“This is… the Buddha Stupa Sutra! He has cultivated our temple’s guardian technique!”
