"If you have something to say, say it. If not, leave."
"This mountain is sealed. Those who forcibly climb it will die!"
What do you call arrogance?
What do you call domineering?
This concise and indifferent response left everyone watching completely stunned.
"Oh my God, is this Daoist really so audacious?"
The cultivators watching from afar were all dumbfounded.
They had heard many stories about the Observatory Master of Qingfeng Temple recently, and generally believed that this Daoist longed for peace in the world, and thought he should be a polite and kind-hearted Daoist.
But no one expected that when faced with the visit from the Vajra monks of the Buddhist Sect.
He directly responded with 'If you have something to say, say it. If not, leave. Dare to force your way in, and you'll die'?
This caught everyone by surprise.
It left them a bit bewildered for the moment!
"My heavens, is this Daoist really this arrogant?"
"Could it be that he doesn't know what kind of existence the Vajra monks of the Great Brightness Temple are?"
"This response is just short of outright telling them to get lost. With the temper of the Furious Vajra, this Daoist might be in for it!"
"Not necessarily. From what I know, this Daoist possesses the Golden Light Spell of Dragon and Tiger Mountain and the Five Thunders Righteous Method, and there are rumors he has Great Divine Techniques from Maoshan and Qingcheng Mountain. If they really fight, the outcome is uncertain!"
"Who cares who wins or loses. No matter who dies, it's good news for us Demon Race!"
"That's true, haha, it's a good show when the Buddhist Sect and Daoism clash. We're in for a treat today!"
"Better stay far away though. Those Vajra monks are not only unnaturally powerful but also very fierce. If they kill the Daoist and then notice us, we little demons might not even withstand a single slap from them."
"Don't say it, it might actually happen!"
Many demons nodded, as the infamous ruthlessness of the Vajra monks was well known among the Demon Race.
Thinking of their brutal methods, many demons who lacked confidence in their own strength wisely retreated even further.
As they say, better safe than sorry.
The spectacle between the Buddhist Dao and Daoism was indeed exciting.
But losing one's life in the process wouldn't be worth it.
By then, all the spectators' eyes were on the Four Great Vajra Monks.
Clearly, they also hadn't expected the Daoist on the mountain to give such an unreasonable response.
The always hot-tempered fourth monk flashed a fierce look in his eyes, ready to lose his temper on the spot.
However, the Great Vajra Monk stopped him with just one look.
Then, the Great Vajra Monk called up the mountain:
"Daoist, you are a cultivator and should be compassionate. We poor monks have come to visit, not seeking you to treat us with courtesy, but why be so disrespectful in your words?"
"To speak of climbing to one's death, if a villager inadvertently entered, wouldn't they lose their life in vain?"
"Daoist, cultivating begins with cultivating the heart, do not stray into the wrong path…"
The Great Vajra Monk's tone was calm, mingling compassion with some earnest advice.
As if the Daoist on the mountain was already a sinner.
"Damn, is that what a Vajra Monk should say? Given their nature, shouldn't they just go up there and handle it when disrespected?"
Many cultivators and demons muttered softly, frowning in confusion.
"You lot didn't see those many secular reporters behind them, did you?"
"Don't forget the bald donkeys of the Buddhist Sect love to put on a show of great compassion in front of others."
"Even if they act in front of others, they'll definitely have a good pretext. Otherwise, what if it damages the Buddhist Sect's reputation?"
Those with keen insight had already seen through it all.
And Lin Heng understood the blade hidden in those words from the bald donkey, brusquely retorting:
"That's not something you need to worry about."
"This mountain of mine just doesn't welcome certain people, it's not that everyone who enters must die."
"You!"
With these words, the Great Vajra Monk's face flushed, a trace of anger rising in his heart.
The Daoist's words had made it very clear.
White Cliff Mountain isn't really a place where anyone who accidentally enters must die.
He's explicitly stating the prohibition of their climb.
This was downright slapping the face of Buddhism!
The Great Vajra Monk's chest heaved as he forcibly suppressed his anger, speaking in a deep voice:
"I know that Daoist, due to differing sects, you may hold a bias against our Buddhist sect."
"But as a cultivator, one should have a broad mind."
"Is there no need to be so discourteous?"
He maintained the demeanor and stature expected of a senior monk, while implicitly expressing to the gathered reporters that the Daoist was narrow-minded.
And Lin Heng to this, only responded with an impatient remark.
"Do you have something or not? If not, leave."
"I still have cultivation to do!"
As soon as these words were spoken.
The viewers in countless live streams burst out laughing.
"Haha, the Daoist is as straightforward as ever!"
"Got something to say, say it. If not, don't bother me, you're wasting my cultivation time!"
"Clearly, the Daoist is lost in the joy of cultivation, unable to extricate himself."
"Hahaha..."
...
Damn...
Can this Daoist not have a normal conversation?
At this point, the Great Vajra Monk was also speechless from the rebuttal. He swore that if it weren't for the Abbot repeatedly reminding him to pay attention to the Buddhist Sect's reputation, he would have flown up there and slapped the other party to death!
Taking a deep breath, the Great Vajra Monk responded with a dark face:
"I merely heard that Daoist, you have many disagreements with our Buddhist Sect's philosophy, and particularly wanted to visit for a discussion. Would it be possible for the Daoist to enlighten us?"
The last dispute with Du'e over philosophical differences resulted in a significant questioning of the Buddhist Sect's philosophies.
This time, he had made all the preparations, waiting to engage in a philosophical debate with the Daoist to vent the Buddhist Sect's anger!
However, to his fury, Lin Heng actually directly refused, saying:
"Does your Buddhist Sect have nothing better to do?"
"I am very busy. What's there to discuss?"
"Hurry up and leave!"
Lin Heng dismissively waved his hand.
Want a debate?
I'm too busy to debate with you.
The age-old struggle between Buddhism and Daoism, debate my ass!
Lin Heng's impatience was not even remotely concealed in his tone.
This kind of response left many cultivators wiping a cold sweat for him.
Everyone turned their gaze to the Vajra Monks.
Sure enough, the anger on the Great Vajra Monk's face was finally uncontrollable.
His tone was no longer calm, descending into extreme darkness.
"What if today, the poor monk insists on climbing the mountain?"
The Great Vajra Monk's eyes revealed ferocity, fully demonstrating what is called the Vajra's Furious Gaze.
Many reporters on-site shivered involuntarily at that moment.
The viewers across the internet also felt a sudden tightness in their hearts.
Needless to say, the distant demons were even more on edge, retreating a significant distance in tension.
The Bodhisattva is compassionate, ensuring peace beneath.
The Furious Vajra glares, causing dread throughout!
At this moment, the authority of the Vajra Monks was fully displayed.
However, along with an irritated voice rising.
The four Vajra Monks' expressions simultaneously changed.
"The boss said you should leave, then leave!"
"Do you really want Master Xiong to get angry?"
With those words, a Black Bear Spirit wearing a kasaya appeared on the mountain, cursing and scolding.
