Chapter 34 The Purpose of the Temple of Reincarnation
At this time, Kazuyo was also shocked by the truth about why there were only three schools of Buddhist inheritance.
Immediately, upon hearing Lu Qingping's question, he clasped his hands together, whispered the name of the Buddha, and said: "Amitabha, it is said that the Buddha has four disciples, the eldest disciple Kassapa, the second disciple Jin Chan, the third disciple Subhuti, and the youngest disciple Ananda."
The great disciple Kassapa, the Buddha holding flowers, Kassapa smiling, this is the most popular Buddhist legend in Buddhism.
Subhuti, the third disciple, asked the Buddha, and his conversations with the Buddha were recorded. He is the protagonist in the Diamond Sutra, the classic of the Vajra Temple.
Finally, there is the young disciple Ananda who was rumored to have had a love affair with a girl before he became a monk and was willing to transform into a stone bridge just for the girl to pass by on the bridge.
But only the second disciple of the Buddha, Jin Chan, was not there.
Lu Qingping's heart skipped a beat: "I just made a casual guess that the second disciple is really Tang Monk and a character in Journey to the West!"
Li Baidie suddenly said: "So that's why people in the world only know the stories of the Buddha's other three disciples, but they don't know anything about the second disciple Jin Chan. It turns out that he was actually killed by the demon saint in ancient times...
…”
For people who have died, no wonder there are no legends left in the world.
However, Lu Qingping said in her heart: "Who says there is no such thing? It's just that there is no such thing on the land of Jambudvipa. If on earth, who doesn't know that Jin Chan was demoted to the mortal world because he didn't listen to the Buddha's teachings, and suffered hardships for ten lives. In the tenth life,
The story of traveling west to obtain Buddhist scriptures.”
The story of Jin Chanzi is more famous on earth than any of the other three disciples of Buddha.
Precisely because Journey to the West is familiar to ordinary people on earth, the appearance of this thing shocked him, and he diverged his thinking and thought about many possibilities.
"What does the earth where I was originally have to do with the land of Jambudvipa?"
"Why are there so many specious characters and stories?"
But the difference between the two worlds is that they arrived on the land of Jambudvipa.
The Holy Monkey God who wielded the Ruyi Golden Cudgel actually nailed the Golden Chanzi to a mountain, causing her to bleed the Buddha's blood to death.
Lu Qingping suddenly felt confused in her eyes.
This is definitely no coincidence!
That's why he was shocked.
Especially when it comes to the manifestation of these miracles, which can spread all over the heavens, the truth becomes even more confusing.
But what he is more concerned about is, since there is a connection, whether there will be a chance to return to Earth in the future.
In the Palace of Reincarnation, Meng Hanchan's voice still tells the legends of ancient times.
"The magnitude of that ancient war is unimaginable by future generations."
"I said before that the land of Jambudur in ancient times was not so small. It was because of the great war between the innate saints and the demonic saints among the three religions that the original land of Jambudvipa was torn into three parts. We are now
The land it is located on is only one-third of the real land of Jambudur, but it preserves the most complete inheritance of the three religions."
"The other two pieces of land that were separated, one is a bitter cold wilderness where the demon clan lives."
"On the other side, there are still a large number of human races, but they have left this land."
"The traces of that ancient war caused terrible traces between the three continents, making it seem that the three continents can never be reunited. To this day, the other two continents are still floating among the stars in the void outside Jambu.
I’m afraid only land gods can go and explore it.”
The other three people were shocked.
Today's Jamfu land is divided into two dynasties, Sui and Tang dynasties, with a total of 108 states in the world.
The Northern Tang Dynasty controlled 72 states in the world, while the Southern Sui Dynasty only owned 36 states.
Just like this, the vastness of the entire land is terrifying enough. It is impossible for a mortal to travel across these 108 states in a lifetime. Even people in the martial arts world, no one dares to say that they have traveled all over the world.
However, such a vast world was only one-third torn apart by a horrific war.
At this time, Meng Hanchan's story has also come to an end:
"After the battle between Buddhism and demons, on the premise of sacrificing one of the Buddha's disciples, the Innate Patriarch paid a heavy price in the end before he finally used his great supernatural power to seal off the great power of demons between heaven and earth."
"That war also severely damaged the vitality of the founders of Buddhism and Taoism. They had no choice but to end their missionary work and leave the land of Jambudvipa."
"This is the end of the ancient legend of sacred manifestations."
"Later on, there were some changes in the separation of Buddhism and Taoism, resulting in the current structure of three Buddhist temples and Taoism's four blessed places. But that is another secret history, and I don't know much about it."
After Meng Hanchan finished telling this ancient sacred legend, Lu Qingping finally sorted out the general background of this fantasy world of immortals and martial arts.
This period of history is a secret among the three religions. Because some of the stories in it are not very glorious, they jointly hid it.
It is almost impossible for ordinary people to know. Even some dynasties in ancient times may not know these secret histories of heaven and earth.
Now, Lu Qingping and the others learned about these ancient histories from an authentic successor of the three religions.
"These are secret histories, but the reason why I decided to tell you is that besides the fact that this is also an ancient history of the human race, there is another important reason..."
Meng Hanchan said and looked at the reincarnation disk:
"We who have entered the Hall of Reincarnation are no longer the ordinary people in the world of Jambu. We are even closer to the truth of myths than some of the old figures in the three religions in the world today."
Several people's expressions also changed.
Meng Hanchan is right. Just looking at the exchange items at the top of the Samsara Palace has already shown that the origin of the Samsara Palace is more mysterious than the saints who descended in ancient times.
What came to the land of Jamfu in ancient times are some of the sacred things of the three religions, but the Samsara Hall is directly related to the source of the three religions.
Those ancient supreme beings who look down upon the heaven and earth and control the universe.
Taoist ancestor, Buddha, Emperor of Heaven...
"Precisely because this Hall of Reincarnation has involved many existences in mythology, I feel it is necessary to tell you about the history of the manifestations of the saints on the land of Jambu, which may be very helpful to us in the future."
Meng Hanchan has always been committed to making the team work together so that they can survive to the end and even escape.
Lu Qingping slowly digested this huge amount of information in her heart, and then, with twinkling eyes, she asked Meng Hanchan: "Miss Meng, after you completed the incident for the first time, did you learn anything about the Samsara Palace in detail?"
"For example, could I ask directly about its purpose?"
"Or, how can we escape reincarnation?"
Yiye also looked over with concerned eyes.
The two questions Lu Qingping asked are extremely important.
Meng Hanchan nodded and said: "We have already asked, but you should ask it again yourself. Maybe your questions can be a little different and see if it can answer them all."
"How to ask?" Yiye was slightly startled.
"The Reincarnation Hall and the Reincarnation Disk should be one and the same thing. This place and the Reincarnation World are both covered by its consciousness. In fact, what we just said was also heard by it. If you want to ask questions, just ask the Reincarnation directly.
But it may not answer every question." Meng Hanchan explained.
Kazuye has already asked the reincarnation: "Reincarnation Hall, how can we escape from the fate of reincarnations and regain freedom?"
Perhaps many people have asked this question.
The voice of the Reincarnation Palace replied coldly: "Reincarnators will face a choice when they reach the realm of land gods. At that time, they will have a chance to escape from reincarnation, but they must strictly abide by the ban on reincarnation and must not reveal the existence of the Reincarnation Palace to outsiders.
On the contrary, if you do not choose to escape from reincarnation in the land of gods and goddesses, you will enter a larger world of reincarnation."
Yiye's eyes were shocked when he heard this.
Become a land god.
In this world, how many land gods have appeared since ancient times. Even if you rely on the Palace of Reincarnation where danger and opportunity coexist, it is not that easy to achieve this state.
However, it finally gives a hope.
On the contrary, Lu Qingping was slightly startled, could she escape so easily?
It's not that he thinks this condition is simple, it's just that compared to some other infinite flows, this condition is indeed much "easier".
Immediately, he asked Yi Ye: "What is the purpose of allowing reincarnations to reincarnate in the Reincarnation Hall?"
Is this a boring game for the gods?
Is it the kind of evil fun just to watch reincarnations struggling in various dangerous worlds?
Or, give a direct answer of "I don't have permission to know".
However, the cold and majestic reply from the Reincarnation Palace stunned Lu Qingping.
"The heaven, earth, and universe are constantly experiencing reincarnation. When reincarnators enter reincarnation, they enter a process of mythical resurgence."
"The reincarnations are the ones with special destiny drawn by the Samsara Palace from the vast number of sentient beings in the heaven, earth and universe."
"Anyone with a reincarnation destiny may be a member of the future myth. The mission of the Reincarnation Hall is to put these people with a special destiny into different worlds, give them difficulties and opportunities, and let them survive in blood and fire.
Growing up, it is expected to participate in the real myth of the future."
He actually fully stated his purpose.
myth……
Myth? Fate?!
Does this mean that the purpose of the Samsara Palace is to "create gods"?
