2101 First Show of Bodhi Samadhi, I Am the Light
On the square of the Radiant Church, Bachelor Saint Lang questioned Chu Kuangren’s status as the Child of Light.
Hatred was overflowing from his eyes.
“I refuse to accept that you’re the Child of Light!”
Not only Bachelor Saint Lang, but the other cultivators of the Radiant Church also shared the same doubts.
Was Chu Kuangren really the Child of Light?
“You killed my younger brother, Bachelor Saint Tao, and many other cultivators of the church. Why are you the Child of Light? I can’t accept this!”
Bachelor Saint Lang’s emotion also stirred something in the other church congregants, and they started to talk.
“Yeah. He was a heretic before this and killed many of us. Now that he has become the Child of Light, he wants us to forgive him?”
“Yeah. The Radiant Church doesn’t allow a heretic to be one of us.”
Some of them raised their voices.
With that, the crowd grew tumultuous.
“Chu Kuangren, I did whatever the Radiant Goddess said, but the church members refuse to accept you. There’s nothing I can do.”
The Radiant Left Sky King gloated at Chu Kuangren from the side with a vicious grin.
The crowd got louder, and they all glared at Chu Kuangren with hatred and grievance.
“Chu Kuangren, give us an explanation! Why are you the Child of Light?” Bachelor Saint Lang questioned Chu Kuangren loudly.
“Sigh.”
Someone sighed.
Chu Kuangren had his back to the crowd, which hid his expression from them.
However, in the next second, a burst of white radiance appeared around him and lit up the entire square.
At the same time, beautiful white lotuses bloomed in the void.
The lotuses scattered the petals across the square, and each petal landed precisely on a church member.
The enraged church members instantly calmed down when the petals touched them.
Their tumultuous emotions were replaced by peace and harmony.
The rage, anger, and killing intents were all gone. It was like the rain had stopped.
The noisy square instantly quieted down.
“This is…”
The Radiant Church Leader, Liu Hu, and the other Bishops were surprised when they saw the lotus petals.
The others might not have noticed, but as Grand Dao elites, they could sense the power in the petals.
“The petals can cleanse a person’s excessive thoughts?”
“Not only excessive thoughts, but it can also cleanse one of their anger, greed, obsession, and other negative emotions. What kind of technique is this?”
The crowd was astonished.
The petal rain that Chu Kuangren summoned surprised them.
He then turned around and looked at them. The Radiant energy he released instantly swept across the square.
“My heart is clear as water. What I do is justice, for I am the light! How do you like my explanation?”
Chu Kuangren’s voice echoed across the square. Everyone heard him loud and clear.
The petal rain had washed away the rage in people’s hearts. Now, they looked at Chu Kuangren with his Radiant aura differently. Suddenly they found him holy and inviolable.
Even Bachelor Saint Lang, who held the deepest grudge against Chu Kuangren, was calm. He knelt before Chu Kuangren and said respectfully, “Child of Light!”
The others followed with sincerity and admiration.
The scene shocked the Radiant Left Sky King. Chu Kuangren’s method was similar to brainwashing!
Bodhi Samadhi could cleanse one of their greed, hatred, and delusion.
Even though Chu Kuangren knew of its effect, he was still surprised when he used it on others.
“If I use this technique to preach a religion, it must be terrifying.”
Chu Kuangren clicked his tongue in amazement.
Since the technique originated from the Buddhist World, if it were used with Buddhist energy, it would only be more powerful.
Chu Kuangren may know one or two Buddhist techniques, but they were not as strong as the Radiant energy that the Radiant Seed provided him.
Fortunately, the Radiant energy was more or less similar to the Buddhist energy.
Using the Radiant energy as a substitute also worked wonders.
…
Back in the Holy Radiant Church, the Radiant Goddess and Ming Fei were standing beside a pool of milky water.
The pool projected the scene that was happening at the square, where Chu Kuangren summoned the petal rain.
“This cultivation technique is similar to the Buddhist World’s Harmony Tranquility. Is he related to the Buddhist World as well?”
Ming Fei was surprised.
“This cultivation technique is even more mystical than the Heavenly Buddhist Pure Land’s Dustless Dharmic Seal. How interesting,” the Radiant Goddess said.
The Heavenly Buddhist Pure Land was the origin of Buddhism in the Great Hongmeng Universe.
It had unpredictable power and resources under its control.
Even the Radiant Church revered them.
The Dustless Dharmic Seal was one of the superior cultivating techniques of that place.
It could eliminate worldly thoughts and allow the monks to concentrate on Buddhism.
The Radiant Goddess witnessed it many years ago, but the Bodhi Samadhi Chu Kuangren used was much more mystical than the Dustless Dharmic Seal.
“Chu Kuangren, you’re making me more curious about you,” the Radiant Goddess muttered.
Was he really just the Child of Light?
…
Back in the Radiant Church, after Chu Kuangren dealt with the uprising led by Bachelor Saint Lang, he led the group to the Hongmeng Spirit World.
On the way there, Bachelor Saint Lang and the others looked at him with a hint of admiration.
They seemed to have believed that he was the Child of Light.
Bishop Liu Hu, however, was deeply shaken.
Chu Kuangren turned someone who hated him into a sincere admirer, and such a technique was terrifying.
Although Liu Hu revered Chu Kuangren, he also started to believe that Chu Kuangren was the Child of Light.
With his pure Radiant energy and the way he changed people’s minds, if he were not the legendary Child of Light, how could he have achieved them?
On a barren mountain ridge somewhere in the Great Hongmeng Universe, an army of people gathered.
There were no wildlife or mythical beasts around except for the abundance of cultivators.
They all possessed different auras.
Some had runic restriction seals surrounding them, and the restriction seals felt like they were formed by all things in the universe.
Some looked frosty and serious.
There were also many half-beast cultivators. Those cultivators emanated a wild and feral aura as if they came from a barren land.
Regardless of who they were, all those who gathered were anything but common cultivators.
Each of them could conquer a universe on their own.
“Only the Radiant Church is left,” said a man carrying a black saber on his back. He had pitch-black saber qi surrounding him, and it was so powerful that it felt like it could tear the void, making it difficult for others to get near him.
“The Radiant Church seems to be engaged with the Darkness Tribe. I wonder if they can send someone here to enter the spirit world.”
“I’m not so sure about that. I heard that they recently got a Child of Light or something. He seems quite powerful.”
“There’s always a limit on how powerful he can be.”
While the crowd chatted among themselves, a white warship approached.
It was the Radiant Church.
