Chapter 276 Rewards for Alchemy, Bodhi Secret Realm (1/2)
Refining this seventh-grade elixir is not a simple matter.
Not only do you need to make preparations, but all kinds of spiritual materials are in Xiaoleiyin Temple. They have to be refined there. There will be many monks guarding them to prevent accidents from happening.
After Hong Ming heard this, he became much more cautious.
The two haggled for a long time before settling on the price.
Monk Shoujing said goodbye and left, and did not return until three months later.
"Fellow Daoist Hong, it's done."
Monk Shoujing brought back good news, and Hong Ming also looked happy.
"In that case, fellow Taoist, please wait a moment. After I tidy up a little, we will set off together."
Hong Ming opened his mouth and smiled.
Two days later.
High in the sky above the fairy city, a Zen staff emitting Buddha's light flew up. The two of them sat on the Zen staff and flew towards the west.
After flying for three months in one day, the two landed in front of a temple that stretched thousands of miles.
When Shoujing arrived, the monk in charge of guarding immediately came over to greet him.
Another person came to report it.
After burning incense, more than ten monks came out.
"Senior brother, this is Fellow Daoist Hong."
Sit quietly and introduce.
There were more than a dozen monks, all of whom were Venerable Yuanying, and each of them had good cultivation. Hong Ming sensed it a little and found that these people had condensed the seventh-grade golden elixir and the eighth-grade golden elixir, and the aura on their bodies was also extremely thick.
In particular, the leader, Venerable Yuanying named Shou Zhuo, had a strange aura brewing about him, and Hong Ming was very familiar with this.
This is the breath of supernatural power.
This monk is about to develop his magical powers.
However, Hong Ming practiced Hunyuan Dao, and his aura was restrained. Many monks could only feel the powerful and extraordinary momentum of Hong Ming's magic power, but they could not feel anything else.
"Fellow Daoist Hong, please."
Monk Shouzhuo welcomed Hong Ming inside.
Hong Ming returned the courtesy and followed Monk Shouzhuo inside.
Thousands of miles before and after Xiaoleiyin Temple, there are temples all over the place and densely packed attics. The group of people drove the escape light and moved forward quickly. Hong Ming also looked around curiously. Some places in Xiaoleiyin Temple are different from those in Tiannan.
Somewhat similar.
The disciples in the Qi training stage and Foundation building stage who can enter this place are all extraordinary.
It seems that they are elites selected from tens of thousands of monasteries in the Buddhist countries in the Western Regions.
This is also the most common model among sects.
"Fellow Taoist doesn't seem to be from here?"
Seeing Hong Ming being so curious, the leader, Senior Brother Shouzhuo, asked with a smile.
When the other monks heard this, their expressions changed drastically, and they all showed fierce looks, waiting for Hong Ming.
"Indeed, it's not true. I come from the southern land and came to the Western Region by chance." Hong Ming did not hide anything and said it.
Many monks looked relieved after hearing this, and some monks asked for details via spirit transmission, and then looked at Hong Ming with expressions of surprise.
"The land in the south of the sky, I heard from my ancestor, it is said that there are three great immortal dynasties in that place, and the Tongtian River flows into the sea from there."
Monk Shouzhuo laughed and talked.
Hong Ming also said a few words briefly.
After these words, the wariness that many monks had towards Hong Ming dissipated.
After walking for an hour, the group arrived at the attic deep in Xiaoleiyin Temple.
"Fellow Daoist Hong, how about I ask you to wait here for a while and wait for many things to be resolved in the past few days before you start refining the elixir?" Monk Shouzhuo said with an apologetic face.
"It's okay, I have enough time, but I've been famous for the Bodhi tree in the Buddhist country in the Western Regions for a long time. I wonder when I can practice under the Bodhi tree?"
Hong Ming directly asked the question he wanted to ask the most.
Hong Ming did not ask for anything else as a reward for refining the alchemy this time. He only wanted to practice under the bodhi tree for seven days.
The Bodhi tree is one of the most cherished spiritual trees in the Four Directions Realm. It is said that the Bodhi tree itself is the Bodhi seed obtained from the fairy world. It later grew up and became the ancestral treasure of Xiaoleiyin Temple.
"There are still more than a month left for refining the elixir. I will definitely give an answer to my fellow Taoist within five days."
Monk Shouzhuo said very politely.
Many monks left.
Hong Ming went up to the attic, arranged the formation, and continued to study Buddhist classics and Buddhist exercises.
Buddhist classics are extremely interesting. They are a collection of short stories, including the exchanges between Buddha, Bodhisattvas, Arhats and ordinary people. They are written vividly.
Among them, the image of a Buddhist master is set off very grandly.
Hong Ming naturally took this as a joke, but some of the words he said were subtle and had some secrets, pointing out some tips on the road to spiritual practice.
Hong Ming read it over and picked out the essence, but also felt that he had gained something special.
And Buddhist techniques are also extremely special.
There are a dazzling array of Buddhist techniques. Almost all the ordinary immortal cultivation techniques have been modified and turned into Buddhist techniques. Hong Ming can see many traces of Tiannan's techniques.
The only change is to add or delete some content and add Buddhist meaning.
Only when you understand the Buddha's will can you practice Buddhist techniques, and the speed of practice will be faster than practicing ordinary techniques.
As for understanding the meaning of Buddhism, we must rely on reciting Buddhist scriptures.
To a certain extent, this makes practice more difficult.
Hong Ming carefully studied the Buddhist exercises and gained several insights. Some of the Buddhist exercises were unique in body training, and Hong Ming watched them with great interest.
"It's a pity that Buddhist techniques are very exclusive and the inheritance is extremely strict. Otherwise, you can use some Buddhist techniques to study them and see if there are any other gains."
Hong Ming felt a little pity.
…
Four days later.
Monk Shou Zhuo came again, and this time Shou Jing followed him.
"Fellow Daoist Hong, come with me."
Monk Shouzhuo led the way, and Hong Ming followed behind.
The three of them flew towards the depths of Xiaoleiyin Temple in the Escape Light.
This time we flew for half a day and stopped at the entrance of a secret realm.
Monk Shouzhuo held a string of Buddhist beads, opened a fold in space, and entered it. Monk Hong Ming and Monk Shoujing followed behind and walked in.
Entered the secret realm.
Hong Ming's eyes lit up.
In this secret realm, the spiritual energy is extremely rich.
What's even more rare is that there is a faint fragrance in this spiritual energy. After smelling this fragrance, Hong Ming felt his mind was shaken and became clear and transparent.
"As expected of the secret place where the Bodhi tree is located, it's really amazing."
Hong Ming's face showed admiration.
Monk Shoujing said next to him:
"Fellow Taoist, you must be careful after entering. There are several God-Transforming True Monarchs from other places practicing here. Don't disturb them and cause trouble."
Hong Ming was stunned for a moment and nodded.
But this is considered normal.
When the True Monarch of Transformation God has nothing to do, he naturally travels around in search of opportunities to leave this world. For example, the land in the north of the earth, the land in the south of the sky, and even the demon clan in the demon realm may come to the western region.
There is no need for Xiaoleiyin Temple to hide the bodhi tree.
Enlightenment under the bodhi tree is not difficult.
As long as the True Monarch of Transformation God is willing to give up the treasure as the price, it will naturally be allowed.
Having formed a good relationship and obtained a treasure, why not do it?
This is like the sect's secret realm in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. If outsiders want to enter, as long as they are willing to take out the treasures, they will most likely be allowed.
