Chapter 306 The Battle for the Holy Land (Happy Lantern Festival)
"Nonsense, absolutely nonsense!"
Here at Jing Nian Monastery, after hearing the rumors spread by the vicious tongues in the world, Bu'ai, the leader of the four Dharma protectors, was so angry that he kept yelling curses.
In my heart, I couldn't help but feel panic.
The strength of Shaolin Temple, at least on the surface, does suppress Jing Nian Chan Monastery. This is an indisputable fact.
It feels very ridiculous not to be angry. I never thought that the Shaolin Temple, which had been silent before, could have such momentum and heritage.
With the military commanders taking the initiative to challenge, Shaolin Temple has become famous since then.
Then, powerful monks emerged one after another. The number of single-class monks alone exceeded twenty, which was quite astonishing.
At the Jing Nian Monastery, except for the presiding officer Kong, the four Dharma Protector Vajras are at the pinnacle of the first-class level, and there are only a few top-notch monks among the other monks.
The total number is less than ten, how can it be compared with Shaolin?
Shaolin has Bodhidharma Hall, Arhat Hall, Bodhi Hall, Discipline Hall and other halls, the first of which are all of extraordinary strength.
I estimate that even if it is not as good as the four Dharma Protectors, it is not far behind.
Not to mention, as one of the four holy monks, Master Daoxin is definitely stronger than Zen Master Kong.
If you don't compare, you won't know. If you compare, you will be shocked.
No matter how you calculate it, Shaolin Temple already has the strength to replace Jing Nian Temple.
This is the main reason for not being angry and panicking!
Jing Nian Monastery is a holy place for Buddhism, and Baidao leader has received too many benefits for so many years.
Whether it is the benefits on the surface or the resources behind the scenes, it is one of the main factors that make Jing Nian Chan Monastery a holy place for Buddhism.
If nothing else, the money held by Jing Nian Chanyuan would have attracted the covetous attention of other forces if it had not been protected by the name of the Buddhist Holy Land.
Not to mention, most of the money was really obtained from the name of the Buddhist Holy Land.
If it loses its reputation as a Buddhist holy place, or is even overshadowed by the Shaolin Temple, the consequences will be quite disastrous.
You know, Shaolin Temple and Jingnian Temple both belong to the hinterland of the Central Plains and have only so many resources.
If you take an extra point, the other family will have to lose one point or even several points of income. Who can bear it as time goes by?
In addition, the name of the Holy Land of Buddhism is related to the status of Jing Nian Chan Monastery in Buddhism in China, and it must not be given up easily.
This is also the main reason why the leader of the four Dharma Protector Vajras, Bu'an, became furious after hearing the rumors from outside.
It involves one's own core interests, and no one else would be in a good mood.
Besides, the integration of Buddhism and Chinese culture at this time was not very good. The smell of "Hu Feng" on my body was too strong, and I was not sincere about the cultivation of mind.
He is not a real eminent monk, and his attainments in the cultivation of Buddhist mind and nature are quite average.
It is obvious that as the Dharma Protectors of Jing Nian Chan Monastery, they mainly practice methods to defeat demons, rather than studying Buddhism to improve their character.
Faced with the furious Bu'an, the host of Jing Nian Chanyuan just closed his eyes and rested his mind without any instructions.
He is also definitely a ruthless person who has been able to practice silent meditation for thirty years.
If you can endure what ordinary people cannot tolerate, then you are a standard cruel person.
Not to mention, in the story of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty, in order to protect the safety of the Imperial Seal, this man directly planted tens of thousands of kilograms of explosives in the copper hall where the Imperial Seal was stored.
It is clear that if you encounter an invincible strong man, you will both die together.
Compared to the Four Great Protectors, he was even more intolerant of the status of the Jing Nian Chan Monastery, which was snatched away by the Shaolin Temple.
When Tian Monk founded the Jing Nian Zen Monastery, it was only four to five hundred years ago.
According to the inference of each host, Gao Shou, Liao Kong's generation has only passed down the inheritance for six or seven generations. How could it be possible for Jing Nian Chan Monastery to fail in his own hands?
After he had fully vented his anger, he used a pen to write as an instruction.
The four Dharma Protector Vajra are required to switch to practicing the "Golden Bell" as soon as possible, and secretly select disciples with potential to practice.
Yes, Jing Nian Chanyuan naturally has a copy of "The Golden Bell". This is something that everyone knows very well.
Since Master Daoxin did not pursue the matter, Liao Kong could naturally pretend that this matter did not exist.
However, now that I feel the threat from Shaolin Temple, I can't care about anything else even if I break up.
Liao Kong and the Four Great Protectors have naturally read the secret book of "The Golden Bell", and they have also understood and deduced it in detail.
It has to be said that it is much stronger than the Vajra Palm, Vajra Fist and other Vajra bodies cultivated by the four Dharma Protector Vajra. It is at least the magical skill of the peak master level.
Originally, Liao Kong and the Four Protectors were a little embarrassed and felt that it was not appropriate to secretly learn Shaolin's martial arts, but now they don't care so much anymore.
After research, it was found that the four Dharma Protectors are particularly suitable for practicing the "Golden Bell" magical skill.
They have been practicing the same physical training martial arts since they were young, and their true energy has the same nature, and they can even use the four of them together.
The "Golden Bell" magic skill is also a body-training magic skill, and they are both Buddhist martial arts. They have a lot of similarities, so there won't be much hindrance if you change your practice.
Even if you can't practice to the peak level, as long as you can reach a high level, you are at least a master.
The best thing is that when the four Dharma Protector Vajras practice together, their own cultivation levels are almost the same, and their cultivation progress can be much faster than individual cultivation.
As long as they can cultivate to a certain level quickly, not to mention entering the Grandmaster level, at least the four Dharma Protector Vajras are very likely to enter the super first-class level.
If it really reaches this level, the status of Jing Nian Chan Monastery will be stable.
There are not many super-level strong men in the world. They can definitely become the pillars of Buddhism, and no one dares to underestimate them.
When that time comes, what if Shaolin Temple is unhappy?
As for the huge resources required to practice "Golden Bell Cover", it is nothing to Jing Nian Zen Monastery.
If you don’t have it in Jing Nian Chan Monastery, you can also get it through Cihang Jing Zhai.
In short, even if we break up with the Shaolin Temple, we will never give up our position as a holy land of Buddhism.
Otherwise, if I meditate in the Zen Temple in the future, I might become a Buddhist icon like White Horse Temple, which would be very frustrating.
Regardless of the famous name of White Horse Temple, it can even be said to be the ancestral home of Buddhism in China.
But so what?
Without enough experts and strength to support the facade, it is just a sign.
If we really want to talk about the background, which Buddhist temple can compare with the White Horse Temple, but the current status of the White Horse Temple is quite embarrassing among Buddhists.
If you don’t have much say, you are a sign of frustration.
In short, Jing Nian Chanyuan has become accustomed to the praise and status of the leader of the White Way, the Buddhist Holy Land, and is not willing to fall from the clouds at all.
Even, Liao Kong secretly sent some men to sneak into the Shaolin Temple and obtain the other three Bodhidharma magic arts if there was a chance.
Aren’t the venomous people in the world speculating that the Yi Jin Jing and the Marrow Cleansing Sutra may be Sanskrit texts that ordinary people cannot understand at all?
It just so happens that there are people who are proficient in Sanskrit in Jing Nian Zen Monastery, and Zen Master Liao Kong himself is an expert in this field.
Regarding the magical power of Bodhidharma, it is impossible to say that Kong does not covet it.
After all, even Heavenly Monk, the founder of Jing Nian Zen Monastery, can only be regarded as a top-notch Grand Master, and has not even reached the realm of unity between man and nature.
The level of magical power passed down from him can reach the level of a grand master at most.
As for Patriarch Bodhidharma of Shaolin Temple, it is also recorded in the classics of Jingnian Zen Temple.
When this person came from Tianzhu, his strength had already reached the Grand Master level.
In that era, he was definitely one of the top geniuses.
Fortunately, after he founded Shaolin, he didn't know what he had understood. He concentrated on retreating to meditate on Buddhism. Soon after he came out of retreat, he broke into the void and left.
Seeing this, Liao Kong could only be glad that Bodhidharma did not stay in Shaolin for a longer period of time.
Otherwise, with its terrifying cultivation level, Shaolin Temple would have been replaced by Jing Nian Zen Temple long ago. Even if Jing Nian Zen Temple is unhappy, there will be nothing it can do.
That person is the only Broken level powerhouse in the entire Buddhist sect since it entered Middle Earth.
Thinking about it makes me feel scared. Fortunately, Shaolin Temple has been keeping a low profile since then.
I just didn’t expect that the low-key Shaolin Temple could easily send out a lineup of Thirteen Stick Monks. Who wouldn’t be surprised?
Damn it, those are thirteen first-class masters, and they are thirteen masters who practice the same kind of martial arts and can form formations.
Even if the four great Dharma Protector Vajras fought with them, they probably wouldn't be able to win.
Sure enough, the inheritance of a broken level powerhouse is really no joke.
If we can obtain several other magical skills in the Bodhidharma inheritance, maybe Jing Nian Chanyuan will also have a Buddhist inheritance that reaches the broken level.
As for Cihang Jingzhai's "Cihang Sword Code", Liao Kong never took it seriously.
The circumstances of the Dini who founded Cihang Jingzhai are not without detailed records in the classics of Jingnian Chanyuan.
Just as the poisonous tongue who spreads rumors and stirs up troubles says, the mental method of "Cihang Sword Code" has the attribute of "Goddess", which makes me feel sick just thinking about it.
It's ridiculous that Ning Daoqi, the number one person in the Taoist sect, actually owes Cihang Jingzhai a favor because of his weird magical skill of reading "Cihang Sword Code".
If he wants to take a step further with the help of "Cihang Sword Code", he might as well find a way to get the ten volumes of the Demon Sect's Celestial Demon Strategy. I'm afraid the chance will be greater.
No one would have thought that because of the lost magical power of the "Golden Bell" in Shaolin Temple, another round of fierce fighting would break out within Buddhism.
When the senior officials of Shaolin Temple react, it will be impossible even if they don't want to accept the move.
However, no one knows whether the four Dharma Protectors of the Jing Nian Zen Academy who have converted to the "Golden Bell" can further reach the first-class or even the master level?
The Shaolin Temple is gradually becoming more lively.
From time to time, there are some powerful warriors wandering around the areas of Shaolin Temple that are not open to the public, causing a lot of trouble for the protection of Shalin Temple.
No one is a fool. Everyone knows the purpose of these martial arts masters secretly coming to the Shaolin Temple. Shaolin will naturally not be polite and will immediately take cruel measures once they find out.
Then, from time to time, you can hear strange rumors about the sudden death of a certain famous figure in the world...
