Chapter 119 The Mighty Heavenly Dragon Bodhisattva
There seemed to be a cool feeling caressing through his mind, and Jiang Chen gradually returned to normal.
It’s the power of incense and desire!
The power that blessed him was the foundation for the survival of the gods, the power of incense and wish.
After waking up, Jiang Chen also understood the origin of that mysterious power. The power of incense and wish was the power born from incense.
All living beings express their prayers and wishes and pass them to the gods through incense, hoping to be blessed by the gods. In this process, the mysterious power generated is called the power of incense and wish.
This is the power originating from the hearts of all living beings, which is very mysterious. For Shinto, it is the source and foundation of the power of the gods.
For monks, the blessing of incense can elevate their state of mind and make it more consistent with heaven and earth, thereby improving their cultivation level faster.
The power of incense and fire can be called a weakened Xuanhuang merit. It has the same effect, but the effect is much worse.
However, although the power of incense and fire is not as good as the Xuanhuang merit, it has a huge advantage compared to the Xuanhuang merit, that is, it is easier to obtain.
As long as someone offers incense, they will be blessed by the incense's aspiration. The more people who offer incense, the greater the incense's aspiration will be.
Buddhism does not have an innate treasure to suppress luck, but it can still prosper like this because it relies on the huge power of incense and incense. For this reason, Buddhism is so dedicated in spreading its faith.
In comparison, the Taoist sect, which has an innate treasure to suppress luck, treats the incense and wish power much more casually, neither fighting nor robbing it.
If you love it, believe it; if you don’t believe it, you will be put down.
In addition, because it has similar functions to the Xuanhuang merit, the power of incense and vows is also called the humane merit.
Humanity contains all spirits, and incense and aspiration are born from the hearts of all spirits. It belongs to the humane realm, and it is not wrong to call it the merits of the humane realm.
Xuanhuang is the heaven and earth. The merits of Xuanhuang come from heaven and earth and are the foundation of heaven and earth. This is the power of heaven.

"Is this the power of incense?"
"It's really amazing."
Feeling the changes in himself, Jiang Chen couldn't help but praise. With the added power of the incense and wish, he felt that his cultivation speed had accelerated by three points.
Three points may not seem like much, but how much incense and will power does he have? It's just a drop.
This can speed up his cultivation by three points. If in the future the incense vow becomes more powerful and becomes as big as Buddhism, he won't be able to take off from the same place!
Thinking like this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but want to collect the power of incense.
There are three treasures in the world: luck, merit, and incense.
Having these three treasures in the body can all increase the speed of cultivation. Among them, luck is the most important, merit is second, and incense is the third.
Those who are above seek luck, just like the saints who control the fate of heaven and earth.
Those in the middle seek merit and virtue, such as the Jade Emperor, the Four Emperors, the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, the Ancestor of the Earthly Immortals, etc. Such people with great supernatural powers can either rule the world or suppress one party and gain immeasurable merit.
Those who seek incense mainly focus on rising stars from the Three Realms such as Buddha and Xuandu.
Because I was born late, my luck and merits were almost divided among my seniors, and not the younger ones like them.
Therefore, they could only start with incense. It was they who secretly promoted the incense method to flourish.
There is no way, the interests in the world are so great, they can't take away from their predecessors, so they can only broaden their thinking and find solutions from other places.
It is not unreasonable for the strong to always be strong and the weak to always be weak. The strong control the best resources and naturally become stronger and stronger, while the weak can only get the inferior resources and of course become weaker and weaker.
.
As for Jiang Chen, there is no doubt that he is the inferior, and he is still the inferior among the inferiors. His merits and luck are not his share, and it is not his turn. For this reason, he can only play with the idea of incense.
Already.
As for incense being poisonous? This is just a rumor and has never been confirmed. Of course, it has never been falsified.
However, regardless of whether the incense is poisonous or not, as long as it is not absorbed, it will not affect Jiang Chen. Just like merit, it is transformed into magical powers. Although it does not improve his realm, it also brings him blessings.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen's mind moved, and the golden wheel of merit appeared, shining like a divine ring, hanging behind his head and spinning continuously.
In an instant, the incense and aspiration that enveloped his body rushed towards the Golden Wheel of Merit, as if inspired.
Not long after, the incense and wish power on Jiang Chen's body disappeared, but a holy stream of light appeared on the body of the Golden Wheel of Merit.
It was transformed by the power of the incense and the wish. After absorbing the power of the incense and the wish, the golden wheel of merit seemed to be a little more mysterious, and at the same time it became more sacred.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen seemed to have realized that it was not unreasonable for the incense and vows to be called human virtues.
…
After dealing with the incense and wish power, Jiang Chen continued to walk forward, but the incense and wish power continued to flow in from the void and was absorbed by the Golden Wheel of Merit.
At this time, the distracting thoughts contained in the incense and wish power could no longer affect Jiang Chen at all.
Because those distracting thoughts mixed in the will are burned away by the incense from the moment the incense is lit. This is also the reason why the wish is called the power of incense, not the power of faith.
How can the power of incense and vows be such an inconvenient thing? If everyone was affected by distracting thoughts, then the power of incense and vows would not be called a humane merit.
Why do we need to burn incense when praying to God? Isn’t it enough to just pray? Why bother?
The reason is not to use the fire of incense to burn away the distracting thoughts in the will, so as to eliminate all hidden dangers.
People with great supernatural powers must have great wisdom. Not only can they think of the problems that everyone is worried about, but they can also come up with ways to solve them.
Incense is very safe!
As for why Jiang Chen's initial reaction was so great, it can only be said that people who gain the power of incense for the first time are like this.
This is a warning to those who have obtained the power of the incense vow not to forget that the power of the incense vow comes from all living beings. If you use this to achieve enlightenment in the future, you should take it as your responsibility to protect all living beings.
…
"Speaking of which, if I continue to do this, will I really make the fake come true and gain the status of a Bodhisattva?"
After once again saving a whole city of people, Jiang Chen couldn't help but complain as he saw more and more incense and wish power on his body.
As the saying goes, if you never forget it, there will be a response.
If the human race in Xiniu Hezhou really believed that Jiang Chen was a Bodhisattva, then the gods would react and create a Bodhisattva statue on his head.
At that time, even if the Buddhists don't want to, they will have to hold their noses and recognize Jiang Chen's identity.
Heaven bestows the status of Bodhisattva, and Jiang Chen will naturally receive blessings from some Buddhist fortunes. If Buddhism does not recognize Jiang Chen's identity, then these fortunes will be separated from Buddhism.
