Again, the monk was seen.
Atop a hill, a lantern hung high, emitting a soft and serene glow, with the Tideng Monk sitting quietly in the only dark spot beneath it, surrounded by a crowd of over a hundred Soul Ghosts. Some were quiet, some were bewildered, and some looked on with a predatory gaze.
The lantern's light seemed to have the power to pacify souls; it looked like it might be even more effective against members of the Demon Clan?
He wasn't quite sure what the monk was actually doing. Maybe, based on his so-called act of illuminating others, it was simply to purify the souls here?
For the Buddhist Sect, purifying souls was considered a meritorious deed, and accumulating merit was beneficial for cultivation; it was essentially the same thing.
