Chapter 107: Buddhist Deer Part 1
"Shaolin Fist" A deer condensed the spiritual energy in his fist while standing on its read limb, his actions were completely different from other monsters.
"Bang" "Thud"
His fist strikes against the fist of a youth. He was protecting another deer behind him, with lots of spiritual energy in his fist, he smashed that youth away. The youth fell hard on the ice and blood to flow out of his mouth.
"Damn, what kind of monster are you?" He wasn't the only one that suffered from this deer; there were still four that were severely injured from his attacks. He hasn't seen any monster practicing spiritual energy, and this spiritual energy was completely different from theirs.
It was pure, so pure that their spiritual energy pales in comparison with his spiritual energy. Monster practices demon energy which is commonly known as monster energy on earth. This energy is very violent, and on the same level, it can easily suppress the normal quality of spiritual energy.
Normal quality means normal spiritual energy, not like fire spiritual energy or water spiritual energy. Without any addition of elements, the spiritual energy only possesses vitality.
"Donor, please leave I don't want to hurt you but I can't see anyone hurting my friends either." The deer spoke but his words made everyone speechless. They haven't seen Buddhists on their own, but they do know about Buddhism from books and the internet.
This was a completely Buddhist way of talking, but how can a monster comprehend Buddhism. They knew how hard it is to become a monk. You need to let go of six desires and seven emotions to comprehend Buddhism.
But monsters are born with an instinct to kill, no matter how much intelligent they can't completely change their instinct. But the youth could find the truth. Although this deer hurt them, he didn't kill anyone, unlike other monsters.
"Are you okay?" The deer slowly walks towards another deer behind him. This deer was actually female deer, his companion. Seeing this, the youth mind's once again spun once again as he shouted "Hey, what kind of monk are you? If you are a monk then shouldn't you give up six desires and seven emotions?"
Hearing his words, the deer turned his head behind and spoke "I am not Buddha. I am not strong. I don't want to slaughter, I love peace but this world won't let me have it. I changed myself, for the sake of my friends, relative and race; I changed myself to a Demon Buddha."
"My heart is Buddha, but my mind is a demon. I walk in the path of Yin-Yang, balancing myself; I can continue my journey, adapt to others and suppress my desires."
"Then, why did you kill us?" The youth voice was loud, almost attracting everyone. He was confused why he asked such a thing. Isn't it a good thing that he let them go?
"Because he views humans with love and respect." The female deer slowly got up and spoke while wiping the blood from her mouth. Then, she walked near him and slammed her fist at his chest.
"We are monsters. Why can't you understand? We were born to kill humans, if you don't follow this rule you'll get banished from the monster race." At this moment, tears gushed out of her eyes as she continued "You will become the enemy of the world."
"Gui" "Thud" Suddenly, blood spills out of her mouth. A sharp arrow pierced her heart. At this moment, she heard the cold voice "He is a genius from our monster race. We can't abandon him. So we need to wake up the monster hidden in his heart. So please sacrifice yourself."
"Lucy" The deer shouted with sudden shock in his heart. He didn't even see the arrow coming, but he could see the monster appearing in front of him. This monster was seven feet tall, standing on his read limb; he was a lion with cold breath coming out of his mouth.
Suddenly, the intense amount of spiritual energy burst out of his body, this spiritual energy was no-longer holy. It was filled with tears and hatred. His spiritual energy flooded in his arms, as he shouted "Why did you kill her?"
"Because you need to realize your identity." The lion didn't fear the spiritual energy eruption from the deer; his fist was also condensed with monster energy. He was a Rank Third High Stage Monster, while the deer was just Rank Second High Stage. There was a whole realm difference between them.
"You are the monster. I am me. I am Yan Yijun." The deer condensed his fist flashed towards the lion-like a slingshot. His fist was turning golden as he slammed against the lion's fist with a roar "Demon Suppressing Fist"
"Bang" The collision between them was impactful, the body of a female deer flies away from the impact alone, not only her body, but others four seriously injured bodies also fly away. But suddenly, a figure moved in a lightning speed catching those bodies.
Although there was a gap of one whole realm, the deer didn't lose. The golden energy released by the golden fist was suppressing the monster's energy. The deer's body had practice Demon Suppressing Golden Body to a certain level which helped him strengthen his physical strength by hundred times.
This was enough to make his physical strength equal to the Rank Four Monsters. Demon Suppressing Golden Body was an ancient scripture of Buddhism. This scripture holds the method to condense extremely holy energy that is known as Demon Suppressing Energy.
This energy is so holy that, only those with dark energy can compare with it. As for other kinds of energy from demons, it can easily suppress them. Demons are monsters, and they are called demons because they have a huge obsession with power.
This allows them to control the most negative energies such as demon energy, Yin energy, ghost energy, cold energy, dark energy, and some other energy. Among these energies, demon energy is most common; those with the obsession with power walk on the path of evil and practice demon energy so they are called demons.
Demon name comes from the energy they practice, it is rather easy for other people to distinguish someone in the evil path as a demon because they practice demon energy. This energy is very violent and allows one to lose insanity and so they are forced to walk in the path of slaughter.
The obsession to obtain power can be commonly seen in this universe which is why not only monsters but even humans are someone called demons because they practice demon energy.
Demon Suppressing Energy is a kind of sacred energy that can suppress demon energy, only those with a higher quality of demon energy can escape this suppression. So, with the help of a strong body and demon suppressing energy, Yan Yijun could fight toe to toe against the lion.
Yan Yijun has a huge secret that he hasn't mentioned to anyone including the female deer. It is his biggest secret. He is actually a reincarnation, not the reincarnation of a strong person but the reincarnation of 21st-century earth's Shaolin temple monk.
At that time, China was flourishing and martial arts were still practiced in Shaolin Temple. He was one of the masters of the Shaolin temple who has read many Buddhist scriptures. At that time, he couldn't practice like now because the earth had no source of dark energy.
He died due to a huge mistake in his practice. At that time, he was practicing the Supreme Scripture of Buddhism that holds the knowledge of Nine Ways of Taoism. It is said, Tao is Dao but Tao means the path of kindness and love while Dao is the path of a cultivator.
Buddhist monks are not allowed to have six desires and seven emotions, at least for hardcore monks, so they can't walk in the path of Tao. Just by practicing Tao, he made a mistake, not to mention he wanted to completely comprehend it.
But when he died, he actually got reincarnate in the young deer body that was on the brink of death to the corrosive nature of dark energy. Dears are very fragile and so they can't consume a large amount of dark energy and this is also why they are weak among other monsters.
This deer was courageous but his body couldn't stand, even though he had the courage to enter the main core of Dark Energy Mine, since his body couldn't hold, he got corroded. More importantly, his soul weakens to a very fragile stage and got absorbed by the soul of that monk.
Later the monk practiced Demon Suppressing Golden Body at first so that he can suppress the corrosive nature of dark energy. Although he needed rescue from others, he did survive. And later, he got stronger as every day passes.
Other monsters thought this was the result of mutation and inheritance, so they didn't investigate. After all, it was rare to see a deer who survived in the core of Dark Energy Mine. But he was indeed punished for sneaking inside.
He also found why this deer was so stupid to walk in the pit of death. He had a love relationship with another deer. One day, that deer dreamed that her lover got very strong, strong enough to protect her from anyone.
This alone inspired the young deer to break the limit of their race and get stronger. That was a foolish decision, but the monk that had completely abandon six desires and seven emotions were completely changed when their soul merge.
This inspired the monk to choose the path of Demon Buddha, a sole path that allows him to follow Buddhism while protecting his loved one. Because he understood this new world was the world of strength.
