Chapter 150 Demonic Daoist and Wind
The speaker stood on the rooftop, dressed in a blue Taoist robe, which, under the moonlight, gave him an air of otherworldly elegance.
Upon seeing the figure on the rooftop, Li Longqian cried out as if he had seen a savior, "Daoist Master, save me! Daoist Master, save me!"
"Your Highness, rest assured, with this humble Taoist priest here, no one can touch you!" The person on the rooftop was already beside Li Longqian in the blink of an eye, and even Lin Fei didn't see how he got down.
"What a powerful Taoist priest! I can't see his movements at all!" Lin Fei was also greatly shocked. He had already opened his eyes, but he still couldn't see the Taoist priest's movements. Even the flow of the Taoist priest's true energy and his appearance were unclear to him.
He had clearly seen the person, yet afterwards it was as if he couldn't remember what they looked like at all. It was as if the person was shrouded in mist; he seemed to have seen them clearly, yet also as if he had never seen them before. This strange feeling was something Lin Fei had never experienced before.
"This humble Taoist priest, He Feng, greets Your Highness, the First Prince!" The strange Taoist priest cupped his hands in greeting to Lin Fei from afar.
It turns out that this Taoist priest is He Feng from Changqing Temple!
Lin Fei narrowed his eyes, carefully examining the incredibly strange Taoist priest. He also became somewhat cautious.
This Taoist priest, He Feng, has only become famous in the last twenty years. Yet his rise in status has been as rapid as a rocket.
Even Emperor Li Yu of Tang considered having this Taoist priest replace the Yuan family as the Celestial Master of the Nation. It should be noted that the Yuan family of Jiangling had a thousand-year-old lineage, and their status and power were far beyond what a newly arrived Taoist priest could match.
Emperor Li Yu of Tang, being the ruler of a nation, was certainly not a fool. This Taoist priest, who was so highly regarded by the emperor, must have possessed genuine skill.
Lin Fei had long heard of this Taoist's reputation, but seeing him in person, he realized just how formidable he was. Let alone a novice like Yuan Daotong, Lin Fei even had a feeling that even Yuan Yuanshan might not be able to match this Taoist.
Seeing that Daoist Hefeng was blocking his way, Lin Fei lost his will to fight again and said coldly, "Daoist Hefeng, this is a family matter of my royal family. It has nothing to do with you, a monk."
“Your Highness is mistaken!” He Feng shook his head: “The affairs of the royal family are affairs of the world. I am deeply indebted to His Majesty, how could I stand by and watch the two princes kill each other?”
He looked at Lin Fei, his eyes seemingly carrying a strange and mysterious power: "Besides, Your Highness comes from a Taoist family, so why would you learn such an evil and heretical skill as the Blood Killing Blade?"
He sighed deeply, his face filled with regret: "This Blood Slaughter Blade Technique is extremely murderous. If Your Highness continues like this, I fear you will eventually fall into the demonic path. In my humble opinion, Your Highness should put down the demonic blade as soon as possible and return to the righteous path!"
"Put down the demonic blade and embrace the righteous path!"
"Put down the demonic blade and embrace the righteous path!"
"Put down the demonic blade and embrace the righteous path!"
……
The Taoist priest's voice, like a lingering melody, echoed in Lin Fei's mind again and again.
His voice seemed to pierce through the soul, striking deep into Lin Fei's heart, affecting even someone as resolute as Lin Fei without him realizing it.
"I have practiced the Demon Blade, I have failed my master's teachings!" Lin Fei's eyes suddenly turned bloodshot, as if he had gone mad. With a "whoosh," he drew the Blood Killing Demon Blade from behind him: "I have not only violated my master's teachings, but I have also failed all living beings. What meaning do I have in living this world?"
The Taoist priest smiled eerily and nodded, "Since Your Highness has this realization, that is naturally the best thing. However, while Your Highness has the determination to abandon evil and embrace good, I wonder if you have the courage to eliminate demons and defend the righteous path?"
Lin Fei seemed to have fallen into a state of madness, muttering to himself, "The blade is me, I am the demon! To exorcise the demon is to exorcise oneself?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Lin Fei raised his hand, about to chop off his own neck.
Just then, a large hand suddenly reached out and firmly grabbed Lin Fei's wrist, preventing his knife from striking his neck.
"You brat, what are you doing?" Su Lie's voice, like a booming bell, instantly pulled Lin Feichong out of the bottomless abyss: "Don't fall for that evil Taoist's tricks!"
At this moment, Su Lie's hair and beard stood on end, making him look like an angry lion, exuding an aura that made people afraid to look directly at him.
Lin Fei, jolted back to his senses by Su Lie's shout, saw the demonic blade in his hand and broke out in a cold sweat—what methods had that sorcerer used to trick him so easily?
If it weren't for Su Lie's appearance, Lin Fei would probably have died by his own blade. At that time, not only would Emperor Li Yu of Tang not pursue Li Longqian's responsibility, but if word got out, people would likely think Lin Fei had truly gone mad from practicing the demonic sword, making him a laughingstock.
Lin Fei had now opened four of his senses: his eyes could see through illusions, his ears could hear illusory sounds, and his mind, honed by the Feathered Robe Sword and the Blood Killing Blade, had become incredibly resolute. Even so, he still unknowingly fell into the Taoist priest's trap. This sorcerer was indeed incredibly powerful!
"So it's Lord Su, the Divine Might, who has personally come!" Upon seeing Su Lie's appearance, even the Taoist priest He Feng became wary and cupped his hands in greeting to Su Lie: "This humble Taoist greets you!"
"Hmph!" Su Lie snorted coldly, showing no kindness towards He Feng: "When did you, a Taoist priest, learn such tricks as Buddhist chanting and recitation?"
It turns out that the trick He Feng used to catch Lin Fei wasn't a Taoist technique, but rather Buddhist chanting. It's a method that surpasses even a lion's roar and a thunderous tongue, using sound to influence the enemy.
Legend has it that when the Buddha chants sutras, even the most heinous and wicked criminals will feel remorse and repent, kneeling before the Buddha, weeping bitterly, and entering the monastic life.
The saying "lay down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot" is nothing more than this; this is the power of Buddhist chanting.
This method of chanting Buddhist mantras is so powerful that it is not something that ordinary people can use. Even within Buddhism, only highly virtuous monks at the Dharma Realm level or above can learn this method.
The chanting of Buddhist scriptures can subtly influence the minds and spirits of others. If used for evil purposes, it can bring endless harm. Therefore, within Buddhism, only a few virtuous and eminent monks are able to cultivate this method.
This gentle breeze, however, was clearly that of a Taoist priest, who was able to use Buddhist chants and sacred sounds to such an extent that it was simply unbelievable.
