Nine hundred and fortieth chapters visualization method
After thinking about all this, Zhan Chen had a complicated expression on his face. He looked at the self-portrait of Bodhidharma in the middle of the rock wall in the cave. His mood could not calm down for a long time.
Patriarch Bodhidharma is truly an unparalleled talent! Although he has not reached the Vajra state in physical cultivation, he has reached the Bodhisattva state in spirit. This may sound ridiculous, but it is an indisputable fact. Thanks to myself
If you have reached this point, otherwise you may not be able to realize the Bodhisattva state in your lifetime.
Zhan Chen is very self-aware. He is not a bad person, but he is definitely not a perfect good person. Without the guidance of Patriarch Bodhidharma, he would not have been able to think of purifying his soul.
Patriarch Bodhidharma not only pointed out his future goals for him, but also paved the way to his goals, which is the method of visualization. In reality, it takes a lot of time to experience the great rights and wrongs, the great sorrows and joys, and the seven emotions and six desires.
Time and spirit
However, for Zhan Chen, he simply does not have so much time to experience the world of mortals and spread good deeds. But these can be carried out in his own imagination and experienced in his imagination, so as to achieve the experience of the world of mortals.
Same effect.
Zhan Chen slowly closed his eyes again, and his thoughts began to spread out in the distance. He first thought of the scene of torture in hell, and the surrounding scenery immediately changed, transforming into a dark hell. He was entangled with thick iron ropes and hung in a
On the red-hot iron pillar, the heat emitted by the iron pillar was even greater than that of the magma. His back was being scorched, while countless demons from hell surrounded him, pounced on him and tore his flesh with their claws...
This nightmare-like experience was so real that Zhan Chen felt this pain in a real way, a pain that far exceeded the greatest pain he had ever experienced and made him unbearable.
Zhan Chen couldn't help roaring loudly, and a trace of fear was born in his heart. Once this fear was born, it grew crazily, trying to swallow up his entire reason.
Zhan Chen suddenly felt bad and exited the state of visualization in time. However, he realized that he was covered in sweat at some point, as if he had just been fished out of the water. Even if he practiced hard under tens of thousands of times of gravity, he never used it.
He shed so much sweat.
He couldn't help but reveal a wry smile and murmured: "Did I fail the test just now? I was almost swallowed up by the fear in my heart. It seems that my Taoism is still too shallow."
However, Zhan Chen was not discouraged. He regained his energy and immediately entered into the next visualization...
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Zhan Chen has stayed in Bodhidharma's cave for a full ten years. However, for Zhan Chen, these ten years are equivalent to living for hundreds of years, because most of his
Time is spent in visualization, and I have experienced countless life, separation, and death, as well as the test of warmth and coldness in the world.
Today's Zhan Chen is very different from before. His eyes have become brighter, shining with wisdom and charity from time to time. His whole person also looks more cheerful and energetic. If he is observing
Thinking before, his mental state was similar to that of a dying old man, so now Zhan Chen is like a vibrant young man.
Because after understanding the true meaning of great love, he has love for everything and is more willing to trust and help others. To a certain extent, he has become half a Buddhist.
However, he understood that his experience in the world of mortals was far from enough. This matter would take a long time, or even a lifetime, to realize, and it was absolutely impossible to achieve the spiritual realm of the Bodhisattva state with just ten years of practice.
With infinite nostalgia, Zhan Chen once again looked at the cave where Bodhidharma once attained enlightenment, and then reluctantly left. After he came down from the mountain, he met Renku and Renguang again.
As soon as they met, Renku stared at Zhan Chen. Zhan Chen smiled and asked, "Master Renku, what's wrong with you?"
Renku still couldn't bear to look away from him and said: "Zhan Donor, I feel that your whole temperament has changed. It makes me feel like I have met a senior monk who has been practicing in my sect for many years!"
Zhan Chen nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, Patriarch Bodhidharma inspired me, and now I have more courage than before."
"Zhan Donor, it seems that you have achieved the right result, which is really gratifying!"
Zhan Chen shook his head and said: "I haven't done enough yet. Oh, by the way, two mages, how is the development of the Buddhist sect recently?"
Renku and Renguang both smiled and said, "Thanks to you, my benefactor, the Buddha Sect is no longer threatened by the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, and we are now preparing to build a Zen temple on the original site of our Buddha Sect."
Zhan Chen immediately took off a storage ring from his body and handed it to Renku, saying: "Master, there are some fairy stones in this storage ring. You can take it and use it. Now the Buddhist sect is in desperate need of development, so it is with money."
time."
"How can this be done? You are a great benefactor to our Buddhist sect, we cannot accept this money!"
"But don't forget that I am also a disciple of Patriarch Bodhidharma. This money can be considered as my contribution as a disciple to my sect!"
Renku and Renguang looked at each other, performed a Buddhist salute to Zhan Chen together, chanted: "Amitabha." and accepted the storage ring given by Zhan Chen.
"Two mages, I have been bothering you here for too long. It's time to leave. Please take care!"
"Donor Zhan, our Buddhist sect welcomes you back at any time."
"I will." Zhan Chen said, and then left without looking back. From then on, Zhan Chen would come here every once in a while to observe and practice, and with his help, the Buddha Sect became more and more popular day by day.
To become stronger, of course, these are things for later.
After Zhan Chen left the Buddha Sect, he returned all the way south to the Linghe Sect and told his family about the eradication of Qiao Hentian. Everyone was very happy after hearing this, because a major threat to the Linghe Sect was completely clear.
.
After that, Zhan Chen returned all the way across the ocean to meet Zhiyuan and tell him that he had completed the agreement with him.
Zhiyuan was extremely happy after hearing this, bursting into tears and said, "Zhan Chen, I really saw you right, you are the biggest benefactor in my life."
Zhan Chen smiled and said: "Teacher, why did you say this? You are my benefactor. You gave me the "Phaseless Golden Body Art" technique, which made my journey smooth."
"Now I have nothing to worry about anymore." Zhiyuan sighed.
Zhan Chen thought for a while and said, "Teacher, now that the Buddha Sect has been restored, I have another purpose for this trip, which is to take you back to the Buddha Sect."
"Go back to Buddhism!" Zhiyuan's eyes fluctuated violently, and he clenched his fists with both hands. This was what he had dreamed of. However, in the end, his hands relaxed and his mood calmed down. He shook his head with a smile and said:
"I can't go back because I have found my new mission here, which is to continue spreading Buddhism to the Beihai Continent."
Zhan Chen was shocked by his noble sentiments. After a long time, he nodded and said, "Teacher, since you don't want to go back, just accept these things."
Zhan Chen took out various pills for improving cultivation from the storage ring, as well as the cultivation techniques he had collected, and handed them to him.
Master Zhiyuan saw that he had given him so many things at once, and said, "Zhan Chen, no need, take it back quickly, you can use these things too."
"Teacher, please accept it, otherwise I will feel uneasy, and these things will not help me improve my cultivation, but they are very important to the teacher. Oh, by the way, I have a very important gift to give.
Here it is, I believe you will not refuse." Zhan Chen said and took out another jade slip and handed it to Zhiyuan.
Zhiyuan put his immortal sense into the jade slip, looked at it, his expression became more and more excited, and he murmured: "This, this is -"
"Yes, teacher, these are all Buddhist scriptures that I collected from the Buddhist sect, and some of them were written by Patriarch Bodhidharma."
"Great! Great! This gift is more precious than anything you give me." Zhiyuan stood up excitedly and paced back and forth in the room with the jade slip.
Zhan Chen smiled and said, "Teacher, I want to tell you about my experience of going to the Buddhist sect this time."
…
In the next month, Zhan Chen temporarily stayed at Zhiyuan's place and talked with him all night long, telling him his experiences over the years and many interesting anecdotes about Wanfa Continent.
A month later, Zhan Chen reluctantly returned to Wanfa Continent and headed towards his next goal - the Qin Xiao Sect.
