Chapter 208 The Consciousness Dies, the Primordial Spirit Emerges
Chen Sanzang had thought that the evil thing would pounce on him and devour his flesh and blood.
Unexpectedly, it simply vanished. Looking at his worried master, he loudly reassured him, "Master, I'm alright! That thing is gone!"
Seeing that Chen Sanzang was still confused and looked smug, Feng Qingzi laughed even harder.
"You'll be in trouble soon!"
Knowing how terrifying the demonic test was, and seeing Chen Sanzang still looking foolish, the monk Mingxing couldn't bear it and closed his eyes.
the other side
The demon of desire, upon entering Chen Sanzang's body, was naturally extremely excited.
The Desire Realm of this world is different from the legendary Dongda University where Chen Chunan lived in his previous life.
The Desire Realm of the University of Tokyo's Buddhist tradition encompasses the six realms of existence, including the human realm.
But this world is different.
The Dao is inseparable from Yin and Yang.
The Desire Realm is a manifestation of the dark side of beings in the Celestial Realm.
In this world, people cultivate spiritual energy but not the mind; even immortals and gods cannot escape the influence of the six desires.
However, the truth that the six desires harm the Dao will naturally become clear once one has cultivated the spiritual energy method to a high level.
Therefore, the difference between True Immortals and Profound Immortals in this world lies in whether or not they have severed their desires.
But the desire that is severed does not disappear completely; rather, it enters the realm of desire.
This realm is neither within the Three Realms nor within the Five Elements.
Because it originates from the mind, it often enters through the mind to harm the path when people are cultivating the Tao.
However, they rarely manifest entities entering the boundary.
That old bastard actually came up with this thing specifically to harm Chen Chunan; he's really despicable.
The demons of the Desire Realm feed on the seven emotions and six desires. The stronger your inner desires, the faster these demons grow.
This inner demon entered Chen Chunan's body, and its target was extremely clear: it went directly towards the Niwan Palace (a point on the back of the head).
All six desires originate from the mind. They defile the primordial spirit and stir up the six desires, allowing it to be satisfied with each meal.
Inside the Niwan Palace, on a three-foot-high earthen platform, sat a seven-year-old child, looking completely bewildered.
The demon, now concealed, laughed loudly: "You truly possess a strong aura of great desire. I will ignite your desires, then devour them, and I will be able to escape this cage and return to freedom! The six desires, the root of all defilement! Greed, anger, ignorance, and resentment, begone! Arise!"
The inner demon's eyes were filled with madness and malice. After being released by Feng Qingzi, he sensed the faint but strong desire emanating from Chen Sanzang.
He is embodying all five poisons—greed, anger, ignorance, and resentment—which are precisely the elixir of life for him.
If one could swallow such extreme desires, wouldn't one be able to immediately become a free and unfettered demon?
Thinking of this, the inner demon's eyes burned with desire.
Although it didn't know how this seven-year-old child could still have such strong desires, as a demon of the desire realm, its perception was definitely not wrong.
He immediately activated his innate divine power, intending to completely destroy Chen Sanzang's primordial spirit.
Under his supernatural powers, Chen Sanzang's consciousness became dazed and he entered another illusion.
The inner demon was overjoyed to see Chen Sanzang enter the illusion of the six desires he had created.
"So easily I succeeded! It seems I'm determined to devour this great desire today!"
The next moment, the inner demon realized something was wrong.
In the illusion
麵馆
Chen Sanzang stood at the door and carefully bowed: "Amitabha, well done! Well done! May you be blessed, benefactor. This humble monk..."
"You're begging, aren't you? You look so pitiful, kid. I have some leftover noodle soup, I'll give you a bowl..."
...
half an hour later
The inner demon was completely stunned when he saw Chen Sanzang eating his soup noodles with a satisfied expression.
No! Something's wrong!
It arouses the six desires, so it shouldn't just be a mere bowl of noodles, right?
Moreover, even if it only triggers appetite, it shouldn't be like this. Shouldn't one eat without restraint?
Why did they just give me a bowl of leftover noodles?
Isn't there still lust?
The inner demon slapped his forehead, realizing that there must have been a problem with his spell.
Since that's the case, let's turn the tables and take the initiative.
While it's easier to entice someone to become possessed by their inner desires, since those desires haven't been aroused yet, we can only resort to a middle-ground strategy.
With a thought from his inner demon, the scene changed again, and Chen Sanzang became a scion of a noble family, with delicacies and fine clothes laid out in front of Chen Chunan for him to take.
There were also dozens of beautiful women, some brides in wedding dresses, some widows in mourning clothes, some young girls, and some beautiful women, each with their own unique temperament and demeanor.
They all displayed their slender figures and performed alluring dances in front of Chen Sanzang.
Then there is no more then.
How old was Chen Sanzang? He hadn't even grown a hair yet!
Moreover, he had been a wandering monk following the monk Mingxing since childhood.
They knew absolutely nothing about love between men and women.
How could he possibly be aroused by these women?
As for the food and clothes, Chen Sanzang didn't want them at all!
Chen Sanzang's desire realm inner demons were completely dumbfounded, seeing that he didn't react much.
No! Something's wrong! Something really wrong!
I clearly sensed great desire emanating from this person, so why did he show no reaction when I tempted him with appetite, greed, and lust?
He couldn't figure out what was going on in his mind, but with such a great desire before him, how could he give up so easily?
The desire-driven demons do not believe in evil. This person shows no signs of having severed desires, so his desires must still be there, just hidden deep inside.
But even after he had exhausted all means, Chen Sanzang remained unresponsive. That faint aura of great desire was like a carrot dangling in front of a donkey—no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get it.
This caused the demons of the desire realm to rise in anger and harbor evil intentions.
"Once I devour your primordial spirit, let's see how you hide it then!"
Having said that, a huge mouth full of fangs opened wide and instantly sucked Chen Sanzang in.
At this moment, the Mind Monkey, who was still in the form of a wild monkey, looked at the Desire Realm Demon with an extremely strange expression. The Demon dared to recklessly attack the Niwan Palace of the original body and swallow the newly born consciousness.
The original being's consciousness, which contained great desires, was stripped away to the last trace, leaving only this newly reborn consciousness after reincarnation.
If you swallow this consciousness, then the primordial spirit will emerge!
Although this primordial spirit is usually still and serene, if an external demon comes to harm it...
"You should be glad that I haven't conceived a sacred fetus yet, so that my divine energy can be in harmony; otherwise, tsk tsk~"
After making a gloating remark, Xin Yuan ignored him.
the other side
After the demon of the Desire Realm successfully swallowed Chen Sanzang's consciousness.
The scene at Niwan Palace changed drastically in an instant.
A god suddenly appeared, sitting cross-legged high in the sky.
Its eyes contain the sun and moon, and between their opening and closing, heaven and earth are in darkness.
The five elements surround his body, and a thousand auspicious rays shine behind his head.
This overwhelming power terrified the demons of the Desire Realm: "Oh no! It's a trap! That wasn't the real primordial spirit!"
Just as the demon of desire realized what was happening, the mountain deity had already opened its eyes.
In an instant, the sun and moon shone together in the Niwan Palace.
Chen Sanzang's primordial spirit was fully awakened.
"Vast and inactive, boundless and primordial; unmoved and still, truly profound. Is this truly what it feels like?"
After sensing the situation, Chen Sanzang focused his attention on his inner demons once again.
"What a depraved demon of desire! Truly filthy and vile! Damn it, damn it!"
At this moment, the inner demon felt a chill run down its spine as it looked at Chen Sanzang, who was staring at it with indifferent eyes as if it were a dead object.
