Time passed. In the blink of an eye, five hundred years had passed.
Twin Fork Ridge.
Ever since Liu Boqin learned under Lu Ge and attained the Human Celestial Realm, this place had become his backyard.
The wild beasts in the mountains were terrified when they saw him.
On this day, Liu Boqin was patrolling the mountain as usual when he suddenly heard a tiger roar.
Liu Boqin was stunned. He frowned and ran towards the source of the tiger roar.
He was very familiar with the sounds of the beasts in the mountains.
And this tiger roar was even more memorable to him.
When he was young, he had nightmares about this tiger roar.
In the forest, Liu Boqin quickly arrived at the source of the tiger's roar.
Looking over, he saw an ascetic monk with a frightened expression. A fierce tiger was about to pounce in front of him.
"Thieving tiger, how dare you hurt people in my Twin Forked Ridge.”
Seeing that the monk was about to be killed, Liu Boqin couldn't care less and jumped out.
The trident in his hand stabbed out fiercely, and surging true energy poured into it, exploding with shocking power.
The tiger demon was stunned. He dodged and looked at Liu Boqin with a fierce gaze.
"It's you?"
"Liu Boqin, you and I have the same origin. My prey escaped in the middle of the night, so I came to capture it.”
"I advise you to retreat. Don't provoke a fight between us because of an outsider.”
The tiger demon spoke in the human language, his voice fierce.
Liu Boqin snorted coldly,"You also know that my master and I are of the same origin?"”
"You, Teacher Meng, should have been cultivating diligently and comprehending the Great Dao, feeding on the essence of heaven, earth, sun, and moon.”
"But you are greedy for blood and food, and your magic power is extremely turbid. You have really embarrassed my teacher.”
The tiger demon roared angrily,"It's not up to you to tell me how to cultivate."”
From their conversation, it was obvious that their relationship was extraordinary.
This tiger demon was the tiger that Liu Boqin had met when he was young. It had obtained Lu Ge's good fortune, but it did not think of the right path and only coveted blood and food. Now, its strength was far inferior to Liu Boqin.
"Teacher once said that wild beasts eat people, and humans eat wild beasts. It's a law of nature that can't be refuted.”
"However, if the beast obtains good fortune and opens its spirit, it should cultivate well and seek to vindicate dao.”
"If you continue to show off your might and do man-eating, you will be abandoning the righteous path and stepping into the demonic path.”
Liu Boqin waved the trident in his hand, and a surge of true energy swept across the void, bringing with it a rumbling sound.
"Man-eating demons all need to die. This is what Teacher taught.”
"Today, I will clean up the sect for teacher and kill you, so that you won't tarnish teacher's reputation in the future.”
A hint of fear flashed in the tiger demon's eyes. In the past, he had fought with Liu Boqin several times, and he was defeated more and more quickly each time.
He knew that he wasn't Liu Boqin's match and had already thought of retreating.
Liu Boqin had been dealing with ferocious beasts for decades, so he could see the tiger demon's intention to retreat at a glance.
The trident in his hand stabbed fiercely at the tiger demon, bringing with it a thunderous sound.
The tiger demon leaped and fled into the forest.
"Escape? Where can you run to?"
"For today, I have painstakingly cultivated archery for thirty years just to kill you.”
Liu Boqin had never forgotten the hatred of being almost eaten when he was young.
He nocked the bow, drew the arrow, and fired.
The arrow was like a shooting star, flashing and disappearing. The next moment, a shrill tiger roar sounded.
The arrow pierced through the tiger's back and out of the tiger demon's heart. It flew forward for another hundred feet and pierced into an ancient tree.
Liu Boqin leaped in front of the tiger demon and punched the tiger demon's head one punch after another, causing blood to flow out.
Thirty years of hatred was finally avenged today.
The ascetic monk watched as Liu Boqin beat the tiger demon to death and chanted the name of Buddha. His eyes were filled with gratification, but he could not bear to do so.
When Liu Boqin dragged the tiger demon's corpse back to the monk's side, the monk pressed his palms together and thanked him.
"Thank you for saving me, Your Majesty. Otherwise, I would have fallen into the tiger's mouth.”
Liu Boqin laughed,"Master, I'm not the king of this mountain."”
"I am the hunter of this Twin Fork Ridge. My name is Liu Boqin, and my nickname is the Mountain Guardian.”
"The wild beasts in this mountain are all under my control. They don't dare to eat people.”
"Now, this tiger demon has an old grudge with me. Now, he dares to eat people in my mountain. How can I let him off?”
The monk had a smile on his face as he said gently,""Tai Pao Mountain protects people, and his merits are boundless.”
"Master, don't you think that my killing is bad?" Liu Boqin smiled in surprise.”
The monk shook his head." Although This Penniless Monk cultivates the Path of Mercy and has a compassionate heart, I'm not a good person."”
"Killing one evil can save all good. If I had the ability, I wouldn't hesitate to kill.”
Liu Boqin laughed and said," Master, you're a wise man. You're not like the monks I've seen in the past. They only know how to be pedantic and compassionate. They actually want to convert ferocious beasts."”
The monk smiled faintly.”
"But to convert evil people, perhaps the evil people must first pay off their karma and wash away their sins before they can be converted.”
"It is only right and proper to pay with one's life. If the wicked kill countless people, how can they convince the masses with just a sentence?”
"If an evil person wants to become a Buddha, he must first go to the eighteen levels of hell.”
"This poor monk's Buddhist Dharma is weak, so I can only send evil people to hell. As for the matter of turning them into good, I can only leave it to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.”
The more Liu Boqin looked at the monk, the more he liked him. He laughed and said,""Master is wise and should be a true Buddha.”
"I still don't know Grandmaster's Dharma name. Why have you come here?”
The monk put his palms together and smiled." This poor monk's Dharma name is Sanzang. I came from the Tang Empire of the East and went to the Western Heaven to worship Buddha and seek scriptures.”
