High Martial World: I Gain Passive Skills Daily Chapter 46 - 45: Merits Reveal True Self, Pratyekabuddha Tes

The skepticism of the two Elders was anticipated by him.

Any normal person would not imdiately believe an insignificant figure from the Enlightennt Realm suddenly claiming to be the Pure Land Buddha’s Son.

Just like no normal person would trust those scam ssages from previous lives; the swindlers are well aware they aim high to filter out that one in ten thousand "fool" who believes.

Similarly, all Chen Kuang needed was this groundwork of skepticism.

Facing Wei Yan’s interrogation.

Chen Kuang spread his hands, smiled, and said, "No evidence."

He did not intend to expose the relic belonging to Huo Hengxuan.

This thing is not a divine artifact that recognizes its owner by blood; just taking it does not an it belongs to him alone.

If he were to explain the principle behind it, and the other party was smart enough to think of killing and seizing, replacing him directly... that would be the endga.

Zhao Lie froze for a mont, then said angrily, "Are you toying with us?"

Impulsive by nature, if this had happened before, anyone daring to mock him like this, he would have likely split them in two on the spot.

But now, he rely gripped his sword handle tightly without making a move.

The reason was simple... He had already struck once before, and bizarrely, the opponent was unscathed.

At this mont, he couldn’t help but feel so apprehension.

What if... he ant that one in ten thousand chance, if the other side really was the Buddha’s Son.

That previous slash could be explained as a misunderstanding.

Now that the other side had revealed his identity, another slash would leave no room for turning back.

If this person’s identity were true and the Pure Land ca calling in the future, the bla would be far more severe than failing to protect the Young Master well!

Although Elder Zhao was impulsive, his mind was sharp and clever.

He thought, why not wait for the always self-proclaid clever Wei Yan to probe and judge first, then follow the latter’s verification.

Zhao Lie glanced at the uncertain-looking Wei Yan beside him: "Elder Wei, what do you think?"

Wei Yan looked at Chen Kuang: "Since you have no evidence, how can you make us believe? True or false cannot be decided by just your words."

His gaze was cold: "If you intend to use this thod to delay ti, trying to let Lady Liang and her daughter escape, it would be futile."

"At this mont, they are probably already captured by our disciples from the Three Tribulations Sect."

Chen Kuang’s smile did not change:

"I have no acquaintance with Lady Liang, rely happened to be on the sa path, what ti am I delaying for them?"

"What I an is, I don’t need evidence."

"I myself, am the best evidence."

Wei Yan scrutinized him: "What kind of evidence are you?"

Thanks to the exchanges these days with Huo Hengxuan, Chen Kuang’s acting can now manage a flawless expression.

Chen Kuang sighed lightly, and said: "Would the two Elders like to hear my story in detail?"

Zhao Lie couldn’t help but say: "Can’t you get to the point?"

Chen Kuang ignored him: "I was originally the reincarnation of the Buddha’s Son, but I did not imdiately regain my cultivation, not because I didn’t want to, but to experience the mundane and re-realize birth, aging, sickness, and death."

"Coincidentally, ten years ago, I foresaw Liang Kingdom would fall into chaos and thus spent several years in the Imperial Palace under the guise of a musician."

"During the chaos, I volunteered to undergo various trials in hell. Unfortunately, your Young Master Wei Su, being sharp, sohow suspected I belonged to Huo Hengxuan and wanted to harm ."

He shook his head slightly, a hint of regret in his tone:

"At that ti, my trials were not yet complete, so I naturally couldn’t just sit and wait for death, hence I had to confront him."

"The Vajra’s Furious Gaze, its power is imasurable. Regarding the Young Master’s death, I am also regretful."

"Now, the ten-year term is up; birth, aging, sickness, and death, I have fully experienced. Having achieved rits and virtues, it is ti to return to the Pure Land and achieve fruition."

He blended the deeds of the Buddha’s Son Lion Heart into his own life story, appearing benevolent and rciful, boasting about himself impressively.

Of course, this wasn’t the key point; it was only to make his subsequent words more credible.

Chen Kuang kindly looked at Zhao Lie: "This Elder, is precisely the last link of my cultivated rits."

Birth, aging, sickness, and... naturally, death is that link.

Zhao Lie was startled for a mont, then suddenly had an epiphany.

No wonder!

No wonder his slash didn’t kill the opponent; it turns out the opponent was cultivating rits to transcend tribulations!

Because of the earlier incomprehensible event even Zhao Lie couldn’t understand, he unexpectedly found the opponent’s explanation surprisingly reasonable for a mont...

Damn, could this really be a true Buddha’s Son?

Zhao Lie felt a bit guilty and embarrassed, thinking about his slash; how should that be accounted for?

It seed Chen Kuang already saw his discomfort and kindly said:

"Elder need not be concerned; aiding in perfecting my cultivation is great rit, great fortune. The karmic cycle of life and death is predestined."

"My Buddha is compassionate, would never begrudge the contributors, but thanks should be given instead."

"Once I return to the Pure Land, I must present a great gift to the Elder."

Emperor Shi style scam, step two... selling dreams!

Zhao Lie was speechless. Seeing his confident talk, he couldn’t help but feel tempted, then looked back at Wei Yan.

After all, that’s the Pure Land Buddha Country...

Wei Yan, unaffected by persuasion, responded coldly: "Despite saying so much, you still cannot prove your identity."

Chen Kuang said: "The fact that I can’t prove it now, doesn’t an I can’t in the future."

Wei Yan insisted: "I demand you prove it now."

Chen Kuang pretended to ponder for a while, then smiled: "It’s not difficult."

He pointed, saying: "To the northwest, there is a river; my return from the tribulation should have been sensed by the monastery, and there should be a senior brother arriving there."

Wei Yan’s eyes flashed, as Lady Liang and her daughter should have fled east.

The man’s narrative so far was self-consistent; Wei Yan was three parts unsure.

But this direction, almost entirely the opposite... was indeed suspicious.

Zhao Lie, through transmission, said: "To the northwest, indeed, there is a River of Death."

"In that river dwells a Grandmaster Demon, who never leaves the water, only toying with passersby, making them step into the water and then asking strange questions; wrong answers lead to being devoured."

Leaving the human-inhabited cities, looking out at this chaotic world, demon fiends are everywhere.

Just outside the Liang Imperial City, less than twenty miles away, there resides a Grandmaster Demon, wreaking havoc.

But because the cultivators of Lingtai Mountain in Liang Kingdom avoid the world and advocate inaction, turning a blind eye, no one cos to exterminate demons.

Wei Yan was silent for a mont, then smiled: "How convenient, shall we escort you to et the Pure Land senior brother?"

Chen Kuang happily nodded: "Then I have to trouble you both."

He looked at Wei Yan: "Judging by the Elder’s expression, there seems to be concerns; how about sealing my cultivation to ease mutual trust?"

Wei Yan’s gaze flickered: "Since you are so frank... I shall oblige."

He descended, seized Chen Kuang, and sealed several of his crucial apertures.

These apertures, unlike the Nine Apertures, are on major veins ant to transport Spiritual Qi; blocking them equates to crippling the cultivation.

This is the sa thod used to seal Huo Hengxuan’s cultivation.

Chen Kuang sensed it briefly.

Good, only one place felt slightly sluggish; the rest functioned normally.

Wei Yan took flight, signaling Zhao Lie to follow toward the River of Death.

As he flew, he casually asked: "I have long yearned for the Pure Land, yet never have I seen it. I hear the Yuanjue Mountain stretches thousands of miles, magnificent; what do you think?"

Wei Yan spoke not to build rapport—

The Pure Land has never had a Yuanjue Mountain, only a Three Realizations Mountain.

He was testing Chen Kuang.
