 Chapter 3220: If They Don't Enter Hell, Who Will?

Deepening the poison while giving the illusion of improvement.

Giving false hope, only to ultimately take it away.

This behavior was insidious and vicious.

Thinking of Little Mei's innocent face, anger rose in Lin Moyu's heart, and a sense of compassion stirred slightly.

"I never thought that someone like me, who has killed countless people, would still feel compassion."

"Back then, when I saw Little Moon, I seemed to feel the same way."

Lin Moyu felt that deep in his heart, there was always a softness hidden for innocence.

Perhaps because his experiences had been too bloody, that tiny bit of softness seemed extremely important.

This also fit with the Dao's principle of yin within yang and yang within yin.

Lin Moyu's killing was his yang.

And that softness was the deepest yin.

Only with yin and yang coexisting could it conform to the Dao.

Now, this bit of softness was activated by Little Mei's smile and a few crude candies.

Lin Moyu said in his heart, "Don't worry, you won't die."

At this moment, he transformed from a spectator to a player in the game.

He wanted to see what kind of scheme Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha had set up, what plot he was hatching.

After bowing to the Buddha statue, Little Mei stood quietly to the side with her mother, motionless.

Soon, the remaining nine children, accompanied by their families, also came before the statue of Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha to bow.

After three bows and nine kowtows, all these children showed signs of rosy cheeks and improved spirits.

Without exception, the parents of these children were all very happy.

After all ten children had bowed, the statue of Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha suddenly burst into brilliant light.

The Buddha illusion in the sky projected a beam of light directly to the other side of Dragon Subduing Buddha City.

The staircase that led towards the sky, usually hidden in clouds and mist, suddenly became clear.

This staircase was like a path to heaven, with countless steps, its end connecting to a magnificent hall.

Four golden characters appeared above the hall: Dragon Subduing Buddha Hall.

Then, a huge and majestic voice sounded.

"Amitabha!"

"Our Buddha is merciful. Calamity and plague have returned. This Buddha shall do his utmost to treat the faithful of the Buddha nation."

"The power of the Buddha nation comes from sincerity. The more devout one is, the better the treatment effect."

"Pass through Buddha City, climb the Buddha stairs, enter the Buddha hall."

"This Buddha will be waiting in the hall."

Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha's voice was majestic and deep. As he spoke, the Buddha illusion in the sky emitted even more intense radiance.

As the Ancient Buddha manifested, many people in Dragon Subduing Buddha City bowed in worship, chanting the name of Dragon Subduing Buddha.

For a time, the four words "Dragon Subduing Buddha" resounded throughout the entire Buddha City.

The ten children beside the statue, accompanied by their relatives, passed through Dragon Subduing Buddha City towards the other end of the city, preparing to climb the Buddha stairs.

"Making such a big fuss just to deceive ten people, isn't that making a mountain out of a molehill?"

Lin Moyu thought as he got up, paid, and also headed towards the Buddha stairs.

The closer one got to the Buddha stairs, the closer to the Buddha hall.

The closer to the Buddha hall, the closer to Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha, and the stronger the Buddhist power one could feel.

Until Lin Moyu arrived before the Buddha stairs, he realized he had misjudged.

There were far more than ten poisoned children; there were hundreds.

These children had long gathered before the Buddha stairs, waiting for them to open.

At this time, the Buddha stairs were still closed, and no one could go up.

Little Mei and the other nine would be the last group. When they arrived, the stairs would open.

"Hundreds of people in one city, at least a thousand people in five cities combined."

"Over a thousand children under ten years old, what exactly does this Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha want to do?"

Lin Moyu had a thought. The Dao of Destiny silently appeared, concealing all his aura.

The space around Lin Moyu distorted, and he entered another layer of space.

From this moment, Lin Moyu disappeared from the eyes of the world.

The perfect combination of the Dao of Destiny and the Dao of Space demonstrated extremely strong concealment ability.

In front of the Buddha stairs, hundreds of children knelt in a mass, their eyes filled with devotion.

Judging from their posture, they had been kneeling for a while.

Finally, after Little Mei and the others arrived, the restriction covering the Buddha stairs automatically lifted, and the stairs immediately opened.

"Climb the Buddha stairs, enter the Buddha hall!"

The majestic voice sounded again, accompanied by thunderous bell tolls.

The bell sound bewitched people's hearts. After hearing it, those children's eyes couldn't help but show a dazed look.

They had only one thought in their minds: to climb the Buddha stairs and enter the Buddha hall, hoping to exchange their sincerity for Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha's treatment.

Only the children could enter the Buddha stairs. All the elders and relatives could only watch them.

The Buddha stairs had at least ten thousand steps. How could children under ten years old climb them all?

And it wasn't just ordinary climbing, but taking three steps and then bowing.

Not to mention children, even an adult would find it difficult to climb.

But in the eyes of all Buddhists, this was a test to see if one was sincere enough.

As long as one was sincere enough, they would surely be able to reach the Buddha hall.

In their hearts, Buddhas were all merciful, but their mercy needed to be exchanged with sincerity.

Only with absolute sincerity could one exchange for a Buddha's mercy.

The massive amount of information Lin Moyu had heard earlier had already let him know the thoughts in these people's hearts.

In his view, these people had been brainwashed, and it was almost impossible to change them.

Only these children still had a chance to change their minds.

"Perhaps I should let them see what a true Buddha is."

Lin Moyu flew up silently, reaching the end of the Buddha stairs in the blink of an eye.

At the end of the Buddha stairs was the Buddha hall, grand and tall, with clearer chanting sounds coming from inside.

Lin Moyu entered the Buddha hall and saw a golden Ancient Buddha sitting in the middle.

His appearance matched the statue in front of Buddha City.

Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha had a faint halo behind him.

From this, one could see that Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha was only half a step away from becoming an Ancient Buddha.

With another half step, he could become an Ancient Buddha. Then he could enter the Buddha Realm, and his entire Buddha nation would advance as well.

In the Buddhist clan, the status of Ancient Buddhas and Ancient Heavenly Buddhas was vastly different.

Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha didn't know of Lin Moyu's arrival at all. He said, "The children you wanted have come. After this, I should be able to advance to Ancient Buddha."

In the dark corner of the Buddha hall where the radiance didn't reach, a hoarse voice sounded, "No problem. As long as you refine these children's souls, you'll surely be able to advance."

"I can sense that among these children, one child's soul is extremely special. Perhaps there will be unexpected gains."

Dark laughter came from the darkness, revealing two blood-red eyes.

Then a huge dragon slowly flew out. It was entirely green - the poison dragon among the elemental dragons.

Lin Moyu saw that its tail was broken, clearly injured.

Moreover, this injury originated from the soul, so it couldn't be healed.

Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha said in a low voice, "These are all citizens of my Buddha nation. I shouldn't do this."

The poison dragon said with a hint of disdain, "You say this every time. Isn't it tiresome? Since they're citizens of your Buddha nation, isn't it normal for them to sacrifice for you?"

"Doesn't your Buddhist clan say, 'If they don't enter hell, who will?'"

"Moreover, this benefits both of us. I refine human pills with the bodies of boys and girls to repair my injuries, you strengthen your cultivation. Why shouldn't we do it?"

"We've cooperated so many times. Don't tell me you're getting soft-hearted?"
