Ninth Demon

Su Jie was born with a leaky body and could not practice cultivation. In order to save his mother, he knelt in front of the gate of the Dazen Temple for seven days and seven nights. In exchange, he only received the words "no chance of becoming a Buddha" and the sad news that his mother died of illness. He burned the handwritten Buddhist scriptures three thousand times in front of his grave, and found a secret record of inner demons among the ashes - "All Buddhas save the world with compassion, and I save people with inner demons." From then on, there was one less scholar seeking Buddha in the world, and there was one more lunatic who experienced eighty-one levels of inner demon calamity in a mortal body. Greed, anger, ignorance, conceit, and doubt—things that the Buddha's Dharma wants to eradicate, he just wants to subdue for his own use. When Buddhists are chasing him, he kills the Buddha in reverse; when all sentient beings perish, he uses demonic ways to save them. When he went to Lingshan to sit down with Tathagata to discuss Taoism, a truth that had been covered up for eternity emerged - the inner demon was never the opposite of the Buddha, but the other half of the Buddha's nature that had been deliberately erased. "I will save those who the Buddha does not save." This novel and its characters are purely fictitious. Any similarity is purely coincidental and should not be imitated.
