Zen Master Dade was worshiped as a guest. Unlike Kang Nanhua and Dharma protector elders like Miao Shihao, they had a higher degree of freedom, but their relationship with the sect was relatively distant.
Kang Nanhua and Miao Shihao can directly claim to be members of the Xuanmen Tianzong to the outside world, while Dade Zen Master is still a member of the Great Leiyin Temple in terms of sect affiliation.
But now the Great Leiyin Temple has long been destroyed, and there is no existence, so Dade Zen Master can also be regarded as a member of Xuanmen Tianzong. Lin Feng allowed him not to leave Buddhism in order to help Dade Zen Master retain a part of the former sect.
The feeling of incense.
For Zen Master Dade, this is the best result. He is naturally grateful for Lin Feng's generosity. He is a kind person and has decided to repay Lin Feng and Xuanmen Tianzong in the future.
Seeing his appearance, Lin Feng couldn't help but smile slightly in his heart, adding to his anger.
Returning to Yujing Mountain, he took Zen Master Dade into the Sutra Collection Building. In the corner of the library on the first floor of the Sutra Collection Building, there were many scriptures and classics, all of which were Buddhist classics. Lin Feng specially opened a corner for this purpose.
Store.
Zen Master Dade rubbed these scriptures with his palms, and his eyes showed a nostalgic look, obviously thinking of the Sutra Pavilion in Daleiyin Temple in the past.
Lin Feng said lightly: "In addition to collecting the relics and sending them back to the hometown of Daleiyin Temple for reburial, I also accidentally obtained some Buddhist scriptures, so I collected them here, sorted them out and stored them, hoping to recreate the old days of Daleiyin Temple.
The inheritance of Buddhism.”
"Although the Great Leiyin Temple has been destroyed, as long as the scriptures and meanings passed on are not extinct, there may be a day when it can be revived."
Zen Master Dade took a deep breath, turned around and saluted Lin Feng: "The master's merits are immeasurable, and all my Buddhist disciples in the world are grateful."
He turned his head and stared at a sutra. He sighed: "My Buddha is compassionate, the Great Sun Tathagata Sutra. The last time I saw it was before the war between the two realms."
"After that war, countless elders of the sect passed away, and the Sutra Pavilion was destroyed, so that this sutra was lost." Zen Master Dade slowly shook his head and admired: "The poor monk thought that he would never be able to do anything for the rest of his life.
Have we seen the Great Sun Tathagata Sutra again?"
"Although it lacks the palm and fist seal of the Tathagata the Great Sun, it is already extremely rare." Zen Master Dade murmured: "The poor monk thanked the sect leader on behalf of all Buddhists and Taoists, so that this scripture can be reappeared in the world."
Zen Master Dade looked at the Great Sun Tathagata Sutra, Fudo Tathagata Sutra, Infinite Light Tathagata Sutra, Fudo Mingwang Jue, Subhuti Heart Sutra, Ksitigarbha Sutra in front of him... These are all the top Buddhist teachings of Daleiyin Temple in the past.
, now gathered together, with the Zen mind cultivated by Dade Zen Master for many years, the Zen mind is also aroused at this moment.
Thinking of the tragedy when the Great Leiyin Temple was destroyed, he actually had the urge to burst into tears.
Lin Feng smiled slightly: "If there are any harvests in the future, I will leave them all to you, the Great Virtue, to sort them out. What do you think?"
Zen Master Dade nodded and said solemnly: "The poor monk thanked the sect master."
Lin Feng and Zen Master Dade left the Buddhist scripture building and chose a cave stone room on Yujing Mountain for him to live in. They also extracted part of the essence of the Yunlin tree so that he could continue to recuperate and practice in peace.
As a Buddhist cultivator, Zen Master Dade mainly cultivates himself. His own strength and state of mind are strong, so he had more resistance when facing the holy fire ceremony, but afterwards he used the essence of the Yunlin tree to cultivate himself and borrowed external forces to restore his own energy and spirit.
, but the difficulty is also much greater.
This is a slow skill and can only be managed by Dade Zen Master himself.
After Lin Feng sent Zen Master Dade back to the stone room to rest, he extracted two balls of essence from the Yunlin trees, then unfolded his robe sleeves, the purple energy surged, and released Shi Zongyue and Xingdou Taoist Master.
The two of them were also tortured to death by the Holy Fire Sacrifice. King Anliang Shi Zongyue was a little better. Taoist Xingdou was already breathing out more energy and less breathing in. He was only half a step away from the collapse of his soul.
Under this situation, Lin Feng couldn't even directly inject the Yunlin Tree Essence into Xing Dou Dao Zun Yuan Shen, otherwise the old man would be left empty-handed.
He first used Zhoutian Purple Qi and the magic power of Taiyin True Water to warm up the soul of Taoist Xingdou, and then slowly integrated the massive spiritual energy of heaven and earth extracted from the Yunlin tree into Taoist Xingdou's soul.
Taoist Master Xing Dou was already on his deathbed. After a long time, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. After waking up, he did not dare to hesitate at all. He quickly manifested the incarnation of his soul, refining and absorbing this massive amount of essence with all his heart, and repaired it.
One's own soul.
Yunlin tree essence is only a resource for repairing the soul. If you want to repair the soul, you still have to use the Tao method by the monks.
I saw Xing Dou Dao Zun Yuan Shen transformed into a galaxy, which was dark and unclear. At first, there were only a few faint stars flashing, and the light was extremely weak, as if it might disappear and be extinguished at any time.
As time went by, the stars gradually brightened, and their number became more and more numerous, until finally, they turned into a galaxy again, with countless stars twinkling endlessly.
Although it is far less dazzling and dazzling than in its heyday, Dao Zun Xing Dou has obviously escaped from the situation of narrow escape.
On the other side, the situation of Anliang King Shi Zongyue was much better. With the supply of Yunlin Tree's energy, his energy and spirit recovered quickly.
However, he did not unfold his spiritual incarnation, the image of the Red Dragon Emperor with a dragon head and body, but instead manifested into a three-foot-tall giant image, wearing a crown, majestic, wearing a fiery red robe, with eyes open and closed.
In between, infinite fire spurted out and turned into billowing red clouds.
Among the red clouds, red light dragons were constantly undulating and swaying.
This red-robed giant sat cross-legged in the void, exuding a strange atmosphere, as if he was incompatible with the world in front of him.
Lin Feng's eyes flashed: "Is this the Void-Returning Dharma Body that Shi Zongyue gained through practicing according to the Red Dragon Emperor's Book?"
The immortal demon soul of the demon race has three levels: the first level is the immortal demon soul, the second level is the original true spirit, and the third level is the unified star soul.
Human monks also have three levels of realm after achieving Yuan Shen. The first level is to refine Qi and transform into God, and obtain the incarnation of Yuan Shen; the second level is to refine the spirit to return to the void, and obtain the body to return to the void; the third level is to return to the void and merge with the Tao.
.
Before the realm of Yuanshen, although they are divided into Qi training stage, foundation building stage, golden elixir stage and Nascent Soul stage, in the final analysis, they can actually be collectively called Qi refiners.
Qi masters are always beings nurtured by the natural world, so they will have a lifespan limit. When the time comes, ashes will return to ashes, and earth will return to earth.
Only by breaking through the limits and achieving the soul can one obtain a happy and eternal life.
The first level of the Yuan Shen, the state of the incarnation of the Yuan Shen, actually completely changes the life form of the monks, so that the monks no longer absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into their bodies for practice, but integrate themselves into the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, becoming this way.
part of heaven and earth.
Heaven and earth are one, so life span is endless.
It has the same life span as the heaven and earth. Unless the heaven and earth in this area are destroyed, they will come to an end together. Otherwise, the natural life span is infinite.
However, this kind of integration and connection is still fragile. The connection is established through the laws of the great road that the monks comprehended at the moment of achieving Yuan Shen. It is not the real world that is me, and I am the world. Therefore, it is still possible to be killed by powerful external forces.
die.
Because heaven and earth are one, all the energy of heaven and earth can be freely transformed into its own mana, so Yuanshen monks generally do not have the problem of mana depletion. Unless there is a stronger person who uses powerful magical powers to temporarily cut off the connection between the Yuanshen monks and the world of heaven and earth.
communicate.
For example, this was the case with the Holy Fire Sacrifice held before the Great Sage Jinpeng.
Once the incarnation of the monk's soul is damaged, the integration between the soul and the heaven and earth will no longer be perfect. At this time, it will be unable to mobilize the energy of heaven and earth to repair itself. This is the case with Shi Zongyue and Xingdou Taoist, so it is necessary
Yunlin tree essence replenishes.
After recovering from the injury, reintegrate into the world. The energy and spirit consumed by obliteration can be quickly recovered.
The incarnation of the soul is often the embodiment of the monk's will to achieve enlightenment.
The incarnation of the soul goes one step further. It is to refine the soul and return to the void, and to condense the body of the soul. Different from the incarnation of the soul that merges into the world, the soul refining and returning to the void is a process of breaking and then standing, jumping out of the world and clearly discerning the path.
The true meaning is a world of its own.
It is no longer attached and parasitic on the world of heaven and earth, but truly has an independent self. Heaven and man, heaven and man, and man are always under the world. Refining the gods and returning to the void is the starting point for the equal existence of man and heaven.
When Lin Feng deceived Xiao Yan into refining medicine, he once said that everything, from their own perspective, no matter who they are, are independent individuals and different from others.
But if we leave the individual point of view and look at it from the world point of view, we are just a part of the creation of all sentient beings.
The purpose of cultivating Taoism is to transcend the ordinary that is lost to the masses. Even from the macro perspective of the world of creation, it is still unique.
The purpose of saying these words at that time was indeed to deceive Xiao Yan, but these words themselves were not wrong and they expounded the goal of cultivating Taoism.
Refining the spirit and returning to the void is the first step towards transcendence and independence.
It's still very naive, and it's still a basic prototype, but it's a solid and crucial first step.
The Yuanshen monk successfully advances to the second level of Yuanshen. If he breaks through and then stands up, he can refine the void-returning body. The returning body is even more powerful than the incarnation of the Yuan Shen. At the same time, it is also beyond the monk's method of enlightenment.
The form of will is integrated into its own understanding of the great road.
Different people, using the same method to achieve the realm of Yuanshen, will obtain the same incarnation of Yuanshen. However, the strength may be stronger or weaker, but the existence of the Void Return Dharma Body is all unique.
However, second-level Yuanshen monks generally do not reveal their return-to-virtual body to fight. Although this magical power is powerful, it is ultimately a method of enlightenment, not a method of actual combat. In a sense, it is somewhat similar to the nature of Yuanying.
, although the power is strong, once it is damaged, it will cause serious harm to the monk himself.
When the returning body is shattered, the monk's level will even drop back to the first level of the soul.
The image of the red-robed giant manifested by Shi Zongyue at this moment is the void-returning body that he condensed based on the Red Dragon Emperor's book and his own understanding of the true meaning of the great avenue.
Lin Feng quietly watched Shi Zongyue and Xing Dou Dao Zun practice. After a long time, the two slowly finished their exercises, each dispersed the Void Return Dharma Body and Yuan Shen Incarnation, stood up, and at the same time gave a solemn salute to Lin Feng: "Thank you Xuan
The Lord of the Sect’s helping hand!”
Lin Feng said calmly: "You two don't have to be polite. Since we entered the Yunlin world together, we should help each other."
He waved his hand and broke through the void: "Xiling City is below, and I will send you two here. However, if you want to linger in this mountain, I also welcome you." (To be continued...)
