Sudden enlightenment refers to a sudden realization.
Enlightenment of Bodhi is the realization of one's own Buddha nature.
Lu Zhishen sat on the lotus platform, under the gaze of thousands of living beings, and had an epiphany in a deception.
Li Yu, Lin Lingsu, Zhizhen, Zhihai, and all the people observing in secret were all stunned.
No one expected this result. For a moment, everyone was at a loss and could only watch Lu Zhishen shine brightly on the lotus platform, shrouded in the light of Buddha.
People from all walks of life who have been working hard to scheming and trying to show off their tricks are all a bit disinterested. Everyone's cultivation is nothing more than luck, refining elixirs and medicines, etc. Someone's sudden enlightenment is better than your decades of hard work.
Especially Li Yu, should he focus on his own cultivation? But then he thought, if he doesn't take down the Daxiangguo Temple, and he can't get the Ruijin Jue, how can he practice? Doesn't it also rely on enlightenment?
Lu Zhishen, like Maode Diji Zhao Fujin, is a person born with these divine and Buddha qualities. He cannot compare with them, nor does he intend to compare with them.
Lu Zhishen on the stage performed a fake show, which made the people in the audience so addicted. They had never seen such a scene before, and they prayed for a while.
Lin Lingsu had long since withdrawn his spiritual power. After Lu Zhishen's enlightenment, the golden light slowly disappeared. He sat back on the futon and closed his eyes tightly.
"No, you're not going to die, are you?" Li Yu rushed down.
Halfway through, Lu Zhishen's eyes suddenly opened and he smiled and said to him, "What's wrong with the Sa family?"
"Congratulations, master, you have enlightened!" Li Yu said with a smile, feeling relieved.
"Understood? Why don't Sajia think so? I'm just a little hungry."
Li Yu laughed, and a group of Lu Zhishen's disciples rushed up. People in the audience wanted to see the Apparition of the Holy Buddha, but unfortunately Lu Zhishen had already walked off the stage.
Back in the new temple, Lin Lingsu looked unhappy, found Li Yu, and asked, "What should we do now?"
"What do you mean?"
Lin Lingsu said angrily: "Lu Zhishen had an epiphany on the spot, and the Buddha's light shone everywhere. Didn't you miss it? In this way, wouldn't it push more people towards Buddhism?"
"Palace Master, please take a longer view. Can't all Buddhist and Taoist sects be the same family?"
"A family?"
"That's right." Li Yu said with a smile: "Our Taoist great sage Lao Tzu entered the womb of Princess Suddhodana Jingmiao in Tianzhu by the Sun Essence. After he was born, he named himself Sakyamuni, established Buddhism, and began to educate the local natives.
, this is the 'Laozi transformed into a Hu' recorded in the ancient scrolls. Sakyamuni is just an incarnation of Laozi."
"Real or fake? What ancient scroll? Why haven't I heard of it?"
Li Yu smiled and said: "Of course it's fake. Forging ancient scrolls is just like playing for fun, but we just want to say it's true. What can they do to me?"
"You said Lu Zhishen is still under our control?"
"He does not need to be under our control. He is on our warship and only needs to move forward with us. I understand this person and there is no way he will bow to the Daxiangguo Temple."
Lin Lingsu sighed and said, "I'll trust you again."

Lu Zhishen, the abbot of Xinxiangguo Temple, was filled with Buddha's light after taking the stage and had an epiphany on the lotus platform.
The news even reached the temple, and even Zhao Ji heard about it.
Cai Jing and others took the opportunity to speak out and rewarded them generously. They bluntly said that it was because of the emperor Shengming that Bianliang repeatedly performed miracles.
Zhao Ji was overjoyed and ordered Lu Zhishen to be consecrated as Master Hongfu, and was given two Buddha statues, six precious trees, and a magic staff.
The popularity of the New Xiangguo Temple suddenly flourished, and Li Yu hired many waiters and clerks, who taught Buddhist terminology for a period of time and were specifically responsible for entertaining guests.
At the same time, rumors gradually spread that the Daxiangguo Temple was jealous of talents and suppressed the New Xiangguo Temple everywhere.
The people of Bianliang finally woke up. Over the years, Daxiangguo Temple has used endless methods to make money. Isn't it a bit tacky? It is far inferior to the New Xiangguo Temple where the Buddha's light has just been revealed.
Xicheng, Prime Minister's Mansion.
Cai Jing had just returned home from court. Dozens of maids were waiting on him. The servants were busy setting up stoves outside, using hot air to warm the air inside the curtains. From time to time, they had to be careful of the intrusion of smoke.
Everyone was covered in smoke outside, but they didn't dare to cough for fear of disturbing Cai Jing, the owner of the house, and the distinguished guests inside.
Following Cai Jing's return, there were two middle-aged scribes. They both wore soft hats and plain clothes. They were both refreshing and chic. They were both in their forties. They were fatter and graceful. They looked like they were high officials.
An experienced bureaucrat, a darker and thinner one with dark and sinister eyes, who moved from time to time while talking and laughing, looked like a shrewd person.
"En Xiang, this time the Shenxiao Palace went to war, and they actually made such a grand gesture as the Lotus Buddha's Light. I think the Daxiangguo Temple is in doom, and there will be a lot of excitement in Bianliang City."
"Watching the fun?" Cai Jing said with a smile: "If I just sit back and watch the fun, what can they accomplish?"
The two officials looked happy, "Could it be that we also..."
"I have worked hard for this, so naturally we should get a share of the pie."
How rich Daxiangguo Temple is, the higher the upper class people are, the clearer they know.
He stretched out his hand and was about to speak when suddenly someone came in from outside and whispered into Cai Jing's ear.
"What!" Cai Jing looked surprised and then happy, and said, "I didn't expect it to be so neat."
"Eun-sang, what happened?"
"The New Xiangguo Temple caught fire and burned into ruins. Some people saw Lu Zhishen in the fire, covered with golden light, unscathed."
"Is this happening?"
Cai Jing stood up and said with a smile: "Let's go and have a look!"
His body has become a bit old in recent years, and he usually refuses to go out easily, but this time his legs and feet were so agile that he walked out of the room without any help.
In front of the mountain gate of Xinxiangguo Temple, countless people came spontaneously and saw Lu Zhishen on the lotus platform in mid-air. The fire burned the temple to ashes, but it could not hurt him at all.
Lu Zhishen was sitting on the lotus platform, cursing, but he did not suffer any real damage, but the heat was unbearable.
Lin Lingsu took two of his most senior disciples to protect Li Yu behind him.
Li Yu's fingers were spinning like flying, and afterimages continued. On the ruins that were burned in the fire, and there are still some sparks, a new Xiangguo Temple rose from the ground.
Of course, all the glory was once again attributed to Lu Zhishen.
The people all cheered, as if they had seen justice defeat evil, and the New Xiangguo Temple illuminated by Buddhism had become the righteous party in their hearts.
In the Daxiangguo Temple, several eminent monks of the Zhizi generation looked at Lu Zhishen on the lotus platform in the distance with livid faces.
"These people have been planning for a long time to do harm to our Buddha." Zhihai clasped his hands together and said in a concentrated voice.
"If they are allowed to continue to splash dirty water, I'm afraid believers will be deceived one after another."
Zhizhen sighed and said: "Set up an open meeting in the city and invite people to watch the ceremony. We will debate Buddhism with Lu Zhishen and expose his face."
