[Ding-dong. The host has triggered the mission selection!]”
"Option 1: Kill the female ghost mercilessly. An ordinary peach wood sword!"
" Option 2: Turn around and let the female ghost leave. Reward: A dilapidated ghost house!"
" Option 3: Untie the knot in the female ghost's heart and send her back to hell. Reward: Ksitigarbha's K ? itigarbha Sutra!"
Just as Qiu Sheng was begging Fang Chen to let the female ghost go, the system's voice sounded in Fang Chen's mind.
However, Fang Chen was stunned.
Ever since he had transmigrated to this world and become a cultivator, Fang Chen had always remembered the words "eliminating demons and protecting the Dao".
This was also why he attacked without hesitation when he saw the female ghost Xiao Yu.
In the end, killing it was still what he believed to be the most correct thing to do.
But now, Fang Chen began to reflect on himself.
He knew that Qiusheng was right.
In the movie Mr. Zombie, the female ghost Xiao Yu had been wandering in a lonely grave in the mountains for a hundred years. It was not until Qiu Sheng accidentally lit three incense sticks for her that she would cling to Qiu Sheng.
Before this, he had never seen it do anything bad.
From the looks of it, it also had its pitiful aspects. It could not be considered an unpardonable malicious ghost.
When Fang Chen saw that the system's third option was to untie the knot in the female ghost's heart, he suddenly felt touched.
Wasn't his attitude towards ghosts…too resolute?
This thought suddenly reminded him of something his master had said during his sermon: "Cultivation values life, immeasurable salvation, high-grade wonderful head, reincarnation of ghosts.”
In the past, he did not understand, but now that he thought of this sentence, he seemed to understand the meaning of this sentence.
Fang Chen suddenly had a thought. It might not be as simple as killing a ghost.
As soon as this thought appeared, a barrier in his heart seemed to crack.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, a ball of golden light bloomed in Fang Chen's mind. His mind became erratic, drifting further and higher.
When his mind completely left his body, he saw his physical body and the ball of lightning in his hand that was still burning.
Only then did Fang Chen understand... This was the realm where only an Earth Master could comprehend when his soul went to the underworld!
That's right, at this moment, he understood.
The Earthly Master Realm was not something that could be broken through simply by accumulating spiritual energy. Some cultivators would stay at the peak of the Human Master Realm for their entire lives.
But now, because of this chance, Fang Chen understood that eliminating demons and protecting the Dao was the mission of cultivators, but the essence of the spirit of cultivation was to save the world and even ghosts.
"Buzz!"
After a moment of enlightenment, the golden light in Fang Chen's mind gradually faded, and his mind gradually returned to his body.
When he finally regained his senses, he could clearly feel that his state of mind had been elevated, and the barrier to entering the Earthly Master Realm was no longer there.
Although his cultivation had yet to truly break through, as long as he had enough accumulation, it was only a matter of time before he entered the Earthly Master Realm.
" Choose the third option." Fang Chen returned to his senses and issued an order to the system.
[Ding-dong. The host has received a reward: Ksitigarbha Sutra!"
As soon as the system's voice fell, a scripture appeared in Fang Chen's mind.
This scripture was not very long, only a few hundred words. However, when every word flowed in Fang Chen's mind, an extremely solemn and holy aura rose from his body.
This aura made his soul become ethereal, and the ghostly qi and resentment that filled the ghost house seemed to be slowly fading.
From the system's voice to Fang Chen's enlightenment to the appearance of the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Sutra, this series of changes seemed to have taken a long time, but it happened in the blink of an eye.
After Fang Chen made his decision, the frozen world began to revolve again.
In the room, the female ghost Xiao Yu was still lying on the ground. Qiu Sheng was still staring at Fang Chen with a pleading expression.
For a moment, Qiu Sheng felt that Fang Chen seemed to have changed, but he could not describe the feeling.
"Forget it."
Fang Chen sighed. The lightning that had gathered in his hand dissipated. Then, he instructed Qiu Sheng,""Qiusheng, go and put away the Eight Trigrams Mirror outside the house.”
Qiu Sheng was stunned at first, but soon a trace of joy appeared on his face. He nodded heavily, then ran out of the house to retrieve the Eight Trigrams Mirror and return it to Fang Chen.
This change also surprised the female ghost Xiao Yu. She did not understand why the little Taoist priest in front of her suddenly did this. Could it be that he did this because Qiu Sheng begged for mercy?
However, before the female ghost could recover from this sudden change, Qiu Sheng's voice sounded in her ear.
"Xiao Yu, humans and ghosts have different paths. I now understand that it is impossible for us to be together.”
"You…go."
Xiao Yu was silent for a while. She looked deeply at Qiu Sheng and finally felt relieved. She no longer felt nostalgic and walked out of the door without looking back.
"Where are you going?" Suddenly, Fang Chen asked from behind it.
"Where else can I go?" Xiao Yu let out a miserable laugh and slowly said,"I shouldn't be here. I should return to my lonely grave and continue to be a wandering ghost…"
