I don't know how many years ago, it was just an extremely barren territory...not to mention that even the people were gone, and it was extremely difficult to see birds and animals.
legend.
Tens or even millions of years ago, there was an extremely prosperous and powerful divine dynasty on the Cangqiong Continent.
The divine dynasty rules the world.
No one in the world dares to disobey.
But for those who disobeyed, many were demoted as sin slaves!
Most of these sin slaves will be sent to the barren and desperate land in the west of the continent.
Being here is undoubtedly like being in Shura Hell, and it is unspeakably miserable...
later.
To the west of this continent, there is a walking Buddha.
They don't want to see those sin slaves in dire straits, and are willing to use their compassion to influence the world, save the world, and bring a beautiful vision to those suffering people.
The first Buddhas were barefoot and undressed, haggard and like beggars.
However, they are walking in the world of mortals, promoting Buddhism step by step, helping the common people, and making the evil that breeds due to suffering disappear.
One person.
Two of you...
three.
Countless true Buddhas, with the great wish to save all sentient beings, stepped into that ancient and sin-filled land. Some of them may never leave there again in their lives.
but……
Gradually, the vast land filled with sin and pain gradually became alive.
With goodness.
And on the mainland, wherever there are temples, there are monks who hope that one day they can walk in the world and go to the far west of the continent.
Not out of curiosity.
But in order to truly save all sentient beings, even if they are guilty of sin, they still hope to illuminate the dark and sinful land with a Buddha's heart.
That is...faith!
After countless years of accumulation, the far west of the continent gradually became prosperous.
There are many temples.
There are so many temples that they are called 480!
Later, that vast land gradually became known as the Buddhist Kingdom of the West.
It is also called the Buddhist Kingdom of the West.
There... it became the Buddha's world, full of compassion and kindness, full of aspirations to save all sentient beings, and full of faith that transcends the world of mortals.
Therefore, the Buddhist Kingdom of Western Heaven is not one country.
But a vast land!
This large piece of land occupies nearly one-seventeenth of the size of the Sky Continent.
No matter how powerful he is, he cannot ignore the existence of the Buddha Kingdom.
Speaking on a larger scale, the Buddhist country is a vast land.
On a smaller scale, the Buddhist Kingdom consists of 480 temples in this vast land!
After countless years of changes, the Buddhist country may have lost its original scriptures, but the Buddhist teachings have been passed down. Each of the 480 temples has a power that cannot be ignored.
For example, the Huasheng Temple mentioned in the mouth of Shakongjialou.
Among the 480 temples in the Western Heaven Buddhist Kingdom, although they are outstanding enough, they are not top-notch. And many powerful people have come out of such temples.
For example, the karma-killing Buddha King Li Shasheng!
As for the Xitian Buddhist Kingdom, which is smaller, it is the Jialan Buddha Kingdom among the 480 temples!
Jialan Buddha Kingdom...
It is the only temple among the 480 temples that claims to be a Buddhist country.
The Jialan Buddha Kingdom may be the Western Heaven Buddha Kingdom in the true sense.
because……
In Jialan Buddha Kingdom, every monk is called a true Buddha. They have monstrous Dharma, kindness of compassion and compassion, and great aspirations to save all sentient beings.
Buddhahood has already been born in their bodies, and they stay in this mortal world where karma has been cut off, just to allow the world to be reborn.
Jialan Buddha Kingdom is also the commander of the Four Hundred and Eighty Temples.
And long ago, the Buddha with a Heart who robbed Lin Huang was a true Buddha in the Jialan Buddha Kingdom.
No!
Perhaps he cannot be called a true Buddha.
Because he is not a monk from the Buddhist Kingdom in the strict sense, but he is the temple master of the Dajialan Temple under the Jialan Buddhist Kingdom!
…
The scent of sandalwood is faint.
The sound of the bell is faint.
The sound of wooden fish mixed with the sound of chanting slowly spread, making the Dajialan Temple built on the mountain full of simplicity and peace!
Looking down from a high altitude, the Dajialan Temple does not glow with golden light.
There is no solemn treasure.
It is quietly located on the top of the mountains beside the river. In the hazy mist and rain, the Dajialan Temple looks more like a scene in a landscape painting, blending into the world.
Only the melodious bells that echo 80,000 miles away from the temple can make people feel its existence, and can also make everyone in the 480 temples understand -
——What Da Jialan Temple represents is the entire Jialan Buddhist Kingdom.
What the Jialan Buddha Kingdom represents is the entire Western Heaven Buddha Kingdom.
When the Jialan Buddha Kingdom is no longer walking in the mortal world, the Dajalan Temple is the undisputed leader among the 480 temples.
Da Jialan Temple!
From the outside, it looks like it is integrated with the heaven and earth, but inside, it looks solemn and precious.
Long before Li Taixuan issued a declaration of war and provoked the entire Western Heaven Buddhist Kingdom, a young man with long hair and white clothes appeared in the Mahavira Hall in the Dajialan Temple.
At this time, the young man is still in a coma!
And around the young man, there were people sitting in a circle.
No more, no less, exactly eighteen, eighteen shiny heads.
These eighteen people, without exception, all have old and wrinkled faces, stooped bodies, and are wearing red cassocks. It seems that only in this way can they be called masters of Buddhism.
However, no matter how profound the Dharma of these monks is.
At this moment, he frowned.
"Amitabha, we have been trying for half a month, but it still has no effect. It seems... Donor Lin is destined to be the Buddha and the God of Relics, and will definitely become a demon!"
A decayed old monk shook his head gently, showing compassion and regret.
"The Buddha's relics and Donor Lin's body have been completely integrated. If he is brought back to the temple before the past, present, and future relics are integrated, there may be a different result!"
A Buddha sighed.
"Amitabha, clothed in heavenly asuras, will one day become a demon and commit supreme sins. We are incompetent and cannot escape the wilderness... But all living beings in this world are also lives! Save someone's life..."
The Buddhist monk who spoke looked white-browed and peaceful, but he expressed his intention to kill Lin Huang in the calmest and most compassionate words.
"Junior brother, please speak up!"
Suddenly, another Buddha stood up and interrupted the previous monk's speech. He clasped his hands and said with disapproval: "It is better to save one life than to build a seven-level pagoda, but to harm one life, you will fall into the endless hell!
"
"The fusion of Tian Shura and Lin Huang's benefactor, if not stopped, he will one day become a demon. You brothers and sisters are naturally wise, can't you see this?"
"Since this child has no connection with me, Buddha, we can't save him. How about..."
The monk who spoke suddenly closed his eyes, clasped his hands together, and his face was full of determination, "I am willing to bear the sins alone. As long as I can help Linhuang Almsgiver to transcend and save thousands of sentient beings, what will it matter even if I fall into the endless hell?"
"Donor Lin has a demon in his heart, does he really have no compassion at all?"
Above the Main Hall, a peaceful voice suddenly sounded.
When that voice sounded again, everyone looked over, seeming a little surprised...
