Chapter 294: Relics are rare and known to all three worlds
In today's Three Realms, there are really not many people who can make Nezha, a daring person, frightened by the news.
At first, Nezha was just afraid that it was just the Linglong Pagoda in the hands of King Li Tian. This tower contained secret fire, which was specially designed to defeat Nezha's lotus body. Once it was contained in the lotus body of Nezha, the fire would attack him and only burn Nezha to extreme pain.
But now, I'm afraid there are two more things.
The first one is Sun Dasheng's newly cultivated magical power "Great Sage Thunder Sound"; and the second one is undoubtedly Master Tripitaka's Great Sun Buddha Flame.
But Nezha didn't care about this... Could it be that the entire Three Realms were afraid that Nezha was the only one with these two magical powers?
No, who in the Three Realms is not afraid?
Nezha sometimes even wonders what the aloof Jade Emperor and Buddha would look like when they heard the Great Sage reciting sutras.
At this moment, Master Tripitaka and the Great Sage have arrived at Bibo Pond.
However, the master and apprentice did not enter the water, and were only watching from the water for the time being.
"Master." The Great Sage asked with a suspicious look on his face: "I have never heard of any connection between the Bibo Pond and Buddhism before. Moreover, the Bodhisattva has just crossed the little white dragon to worship the master..."
After hearing Wukong's words, Fahai smiled and said: "Bodhisattva is a Bodhisattva."
The great sage was thoughtful, then suppressed the matter and asked the master: "Master, may I have some feelings?"
But when the great sage looked at the master, he realized that the master's expression seemed a little subtle.
"This Buddhist charm may not come from the Buddhas in Lingshan."
The master's words obviously confused the great sage, "Isn't that Buddha from Lingshan?"
"No." Fahai shook his head and said, "The person who emits this Buddhist charm is actually not the Buddha."
"Not Buddha?"
The Great Sage was immediately even more surprised, "Master, although this disciple has only had a preliminary understanding, he thinks that he has not made any mistakes... This Buddhist rhyme does not seem to be inferior to the master, but it is not a Buddha... Could it be some great Bodhisattva?"
There is nothing wrong with the words of the great sage at first glance, but if you take a closer look... you will understand its connotation.
It seems that in the Great Sage's knowledge, the only ones who can rival the Master in terms of Buddhist charm are the true Buddhas and great Bodhisattvas in Lingshan.
In fact, this is indeed the case. With Fahai's level of cultivation, whether he becomes a Buddha or a demon, it can all happen in a single thought. Moreover, he truly relies on his own cultivation to gain enlightenment, and does not rely on the attainment achieved by the Buddha's edict.
Great Bodhisattvas such as Guanyin Bodhisattva and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva in Buddhism have achieved fruition by themselves.
For example, Dingguang Huanxi Buddha and Ma Yuanzun Wang Buddha are the attainments conferred by the Buddha. If there is an empty Buddha name and no corresponding Taoism, it is like an attic in the sky, which will be broken at the touch of a touch.
Fahai saw that Wukong had always guessed the wrong direction, so he said to him: "If my teacher's induction is correct, the Buddhist rhyme should be emanating from the relics left by a deceased eminent monk after he passed away."
"Relic?!"
The Great Sage never expected to hear such news from the Master. After a brief surprise, the Great Sage suddenly said: "Master, what the Ten Thousand Saints Dragon Palace committed is probably far from as simple as colluding with demons.
"
Generally speaking, there are two ways to produce relics.
One is a person with profound Dharma like Guanyin Bodhisattva, who uses his profound Dharma to condense relics. And eminent monks like this who can condense relics can achieve the status of Bodhisattva with little effort.
The second type is the relics condensed by the eminent monk after he sat down.
As for those Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Lingshan who received the imperial conferment and achieved fruition status, they had no connection with the relics throughout their lives.
The relic that appears in the Wansheng Dragon Palace at this moment does not have the atmosphere of Lingshan Buddhism today. With a little calculation, we can know that it was actually formed before the Buddha founded Lingshan Mahayana Buddhism.
This is also because of the respective characteristics of Mahayana Buddhism and Hinayana Buddhism.
Because Dacheng Buddha's Dharma saves others but not oneself, the relics they condense are often not sought by themselves... and for this reason, monks who truly practice Dacheng Buddha's Dharma do not attach much importance to Buddhist attainments.
Just like great Bodhisattvas like Guanyin Bodhisattva, what they seek is to save sentient beings, not to become a Buddha. It is precisely in the process of saving sentient beings that they gain a deeper understanding of the Dharma, which leads to the accumulation of experience in saving sentient beings.
The merits and virtues condensed the relics as if "it came naturally".
The laws of Hinayana Buddhism are different. They believe in saving themselves first and then saving others, so all the Buddhist practices are condensed in themselves...Although there are eminent monks who practice Hinayana Buddhism and achieve the status of Bodhisattva by cultivating relics, they are in the minority after all.
.
But in the end, we reach the same destination through different paths.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva first practiced Hinayana Buddhism, and with this he successfully condensed the relics and attained the status of Bodhisattva... And he also truly fulfilled the teachings of Hinayana Buddhism, to save himself first and then save others.
So he went down to the underworld and made a great vow - unless hell is empty, he vows not to become a Buddha.
However, more eminent monks who practice Hinayana Buddhism are rarely able to condense relics during their lifetime, but they have a greater chance of leaving a relic after they pass away.
It contains the other party’s lifelong insights into Buddhism.
Of course, these are not the only two ways to condense relics.
Just like when the World Honored One helped Fahai condense the relics, of course... that was also because Fahai's own Dharma realm was enough to support him in condensing the relics. If he were to forcefully carry the relics, his soul would be damaged at first, and he would never be able to progress again for the rest of his life.
Then the soul will fly away.

The relics are rare and are known to all three worlds.
Every relic is a rare treasure that can be encountered in the three realms, but at this moment, one actually appeared in the All Saints Dragon Palace, which undoubtedly aroused Fahai's interest.
Although Fahai first crushed his Buddha relics into pieces, and then used the phantom of the relics that slowly condensed on the westward journey to dissolve the ban on the list of gods in Zi Shou's soul...
But now that he had the chance to meet a relic left by a Buddhist senior, it was inevitable that he would be a little excited.
This relic is a precious treasure of Buddhism. Generally speaking, if the relics are left behind by eminent monks after they are enthroned, they will be enshrined in the monastery where they were alive.
And what does the Ten Thousand Saints Dragon Palace have to do with Buddhism, but now there is a relic hidden in their water palace... In addition, they have a history of colluding with demons, which will inevitably make the Great Sage suspicious, so he
The master said: "Master, what shall we do after we get down?"
Fahai thought for a while and said: "I still have to treat others with sincerity, and I will be satisfied that others will treat me with sincerity."
The two of them entered the Shuifu Mansion without any obstruction.
Today, Bibo Pond has been taken over by the elite under the command of the Jiao Demon King. The Great Sage is the sworn brother of their marshal, and this time they came together to hunt down the Nine-Headed Insect. Before leaving, the Jiao Demon King specifically asked him not to return before he came back.
, everything is at the disposal of Sun Dasheng.
Seeing the Great Sage leaving and returning, there was an obstacle. The young general guarding the gate had already welcomed the Great Sage and Master Tripitaka into the water mansion.
After entering, Fahai saw a group of water tribesmen in the Dragon Palace, surrounded by swordsmen and crowded together in the center of the hall. Although they were not lynched, looking at their pale faces, one could tell that they were under pressure at the moment.
Just how big is it.
After all, your life and death are in the hands of others, and they are not warriors who are not afraid of death, so how can they not be afraid?
