"Your Majesty, grandpa can only help you so far. The old abbot is right. After all, the life I arranged is not the life you want!" Ye Zhiqiu sighed after taking a look at the old abbot and Ye Huang who were walking away.
He said one sentence, then turned around and flew away.
During the half month that Ye Huang stayed at Xiangguo Temple, he had to go back and arrange things that had already been arranged.
At the same time, Ye Huang had also led the old abbot to the depths of Xiangguo Temple.
After going deep into the depths of Xiangguo Temple, Ye Huang truly understood the ins and outs of Xiangguo Temple.
A domain within a domain!
Originally, Ye Huangzhen thought that Xiangguo Temple was just a place located in the mountains, just like a Taoist school, and the Taoism was natural.
But after he was brought into the real Xiangguo Temple by the old abbot, he realized that the area within this domain was where the real Xiangguo Temple was.
"You are the first outsider to enter the real Xiangguo Temple in thousands of years. Even your grandfather and I have never let him step inside."
Landing on a platform, the old abbot said with a smile.
"Is this the real Xiangguo Temple?"
Although he already understood in his heart, the shocking scene in front of him still made it difficult for him to calm down.
In the five-kilometer radius in between, temples and pagodas stand tall, and Sanskrit chants are chanted loudly, as if you have entered the spiritual mountain of the Tathagata in the West.
On the top of the tallest tower, there is a golden light shining, with a strong Buddha nature.
"Wherever I am, there is Xiangguo Temple!"
"Wherever you are, there is Xiangguo Temple?"
Ye Huang was a little stunned by the old abbot's words. What did he mean?
"That's right! Don't think what I said is a bit arrogant. Xiangguo Temple is actually not a traditional Buddhist temple, but an inherited Buddhist tradition. I am the abbot, and I have all the history books, martial arts and martial arts in Xiangguo Temple.
In my mind, wherever I am, Xiangguo Temple can blossom and bear fruit, so of course wherever I am, there will be Xiangguo Temple!"
"Xiangguo Temple is not limited to the region, nor is it limited to every person or item you see! If you understand it from the secular world, you can regard everything you see now as a secular world.
The birthplace of Zhongxiangguo Temple.”
"The seniors have profound Zen principles, and the juniors have learned from them."
Ye Huang bowed, and when the old abbot said this, Ye Huang already understood what the old man meant.
As long as the abbot of Xiangguo Temple does not die, the martial arts skills and the history books will not be forgotten, naturally Xiangguo Temple can be passed down forever.
It's just that Ye Huang has never believed in any religion, and he has no intention to learn from all this, and at the same time, he has no intention to offend. He can only show respect with the most respectful attitude.
"Haha, I can see that you are not very interested in this."
"To be honest, I have no intention of believing in a certain religion, so naturally I don't dare to express any opinions on these things."
"Aren't you afraid that I will help you become a Buddha?"
"Is there really a Buddha in the world?"
Emperor Ye asked in reply, "There are no immortals in the world, so naturally there can be no Buddha!"
"It depends on how you define the existence of Buddha. Every plant, tree, person, or animal can become a Buddha."
The old abbot continued to smile, "When I say you are a Buddha, you become a Buddha. At this moment, I think so. If I say you are a devil, you become a devil. I think so too!"
"Buddhas and demons are within your heart. What you asked me is just to define the status of Buddha in your heart."
"The younger generation feels guilty. It is indeed difficult for the younger generation to compare with the elders in terms of these methods of thinking."
"Why do I feel that you are not complimenting me? Anyway, since you don't want to hear this, I can't say more. Letting you practice in Lingtong Tower this time is to repay you the favor of your life. When this matter is over, I and I
The fate between you is over."
"Senior, you just mentioned that you had some involvement with me before. What exactly do you mean by the favor you are talking about?"
"After entering the Lingtong Pagoda, you will naturally understand. I will not tell you this directly. Your detailed experience is that if you have enlightened, you have enlightened. If you have not, it may be the meaning of the Buddha. Naturally, there is no need to force it.
."
"Walk."
Without talking directly to Ye Huang, the old abbot led Ye Huang into the temple.
When Ye Huang followed the old abbot into the temple, he was surprised that there were very few monks in the huge temple.
There were only some old men who looked very old and whose strength was unpredictable were cleaning with brooms.
Wind chimes echo in the towers and corners of the main hall in the temple, and waves of Zen sound wash away people's souls.
"Senior, why are there only a few monks in this temple?"
"Because the disciples outside have not yet met the requirements to enter this temple, or in other words, they cannot withstand the impact of the Sanskrit chant."
"Sanskrit chorus?"
"Hey, that's the sound of those wind chimes shaking."
"Is there something mysterious about this? Why don't I feel anything?"
"Because you are an ordinary person now."
Smiling slightly, "The Sanskrit chorus is only for those who practice ancient martial arts. If you don't meet the standards, entering this Sanskrit chorus will only make you possessed."
The old abbot explained, "The history books, martial arts and martial arts of our Xiangguo Temple are all in this Lingtong Pagoda. This Sanskrit chorus is not only a test for the monks in the temple, but also a formation to prevent outsiders from intruding."
"What if the person who comes here is not an ancient warrior and steals the history books and martial arts techniques from Xiangguo Temple?"
"There are hundreds of old guys outside who have lived for four to five hundred years. If an ordinary person can enter, do you think it is still necessary for Xiangguo Temple to exist? It would be better to turn it into ashes if set on fire."
"I think Buddha doesn't need such fool-like followers."
When the old abbot said this, Emperor Ye secretly cursed himself for being confused.
Together with the old abbot in front of him and hundreds of innate warriors and Tongxuan warriors, if he still can't stop an ordinary person, then he is really "invincible".
This assumption of mine is completely stupid.
Without further discussing this issue, the old abbot took Emperor Ye directly to the tallest tower in the temple.
"This is the Lingtong Tower. I made it by obtaining the weapon refining method from a secret burial when I was traveling in the early years. What you see in front of you is the illusory tower body that I extracted the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and condensed it.
The real tower body is inside this one. What you have to do is to integrate the sea of mind and consciousness into the Lingtong Tower within fifteen days." "If you succeed, you can step into the ancient martial arts again. If not, I will
As agreed with your grandfather, I will take you to the Kunlun Mountains to find other ways to repair your meridians and Dantian."
"Listening to your tone, it doesn't seem like I can succeed 100%."
"Buddha has his own calamity, let alone you and me. Go."
With a wave of his hand, the old abbot sent Emperor Ye into the Lingtong Tower condensed with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and then sat down cross-legged, quietly waiting for the moment Emperor Ye came out of seclusion.
