Xieshan City is located in the southeast of Nanling Mountains and has a pleasant climate. All kinds of rice are harvested four times a year, with less snow and more rain.
Although the New Year has just passed, spring rains have already ushered in, and the early morning fog enveloped the entire city.
It was still dark, but Yuan Ben had already climbed up from the bed, put on his clothes hastily, and sat on the bed in a daze.
This was his fourteenth day in this unknown temple, but he still felt a little scared and uneasy.
In his eyes, the gentle temple owner seemed even more mysterious and terrifying than the gods in Longzi Temple.
Just like the legendary monster in human skin, beneath its gentle appearance, it seems to contain endless terror.
"grandfather……"
Yuan Ben squeezed his little hands, embarrassed and frightened.
He was born in Jicheng District, and has been involved with incense and temples since he was a child. He has been to many temples and received rice and noodles.
When a temple opens its doors, it usually invites the city's well-known rural gentry and families to come to the booth, and even lavishly donate rice, noodles and even meat oil.
For several months, he spent a lot of money and food to make his temple famous and the incense was at its peak. To maintain it, he had to give alms every now and then.
But this temple owner of his own...
“Hopefully we won’t close the door too early…”
The dull Yuan Ben prayed in his heart, stood up, and walked to the front hall.
Normal temples usually have one or two people offering blessings, and dozens of people such as boys who light incense, but in this small temple, he was the only one.
Fortunately, this temple is small and only houses one statue.
He walked softly to the front yard, and in the distance, he seemed to hear the faint sound of Zen singing.
Who is chanting?
Yuan Ben was shocked.
People have boundaries, and gods and Buddhas also have boundaries.
Buddha is unique to the Western Desert, and temples were not allowed to be built many years ago. It was only through his grandfather that he came into contact with Buddhist scriptures...
The temple owner...
Yuan Ben thought for a while, walked away cautiously, and pretended to turn back inadvertently. With just one glance, he was frightened and fell to the ground.
All that could be seen was that inside the small temple, smoke was lingering, and a faint golden light was like thousands of ribbons, covering the statues of gods in the temple.
On the desk, the statue of the god standing with a sword actually sat down cross-legged like a human being, and his movements were exactly the same as those of the temple master in front of the desk.
call!
suck!
Yang Yu sat in meditation with his five hearts pointing toward the sky. A round light ball that seemed to be floating in front of him, and moved with his breathing.
Wisps of pure incense were guided out between his breaths, and immediately passed through his body and disappeared into the mouth and nose of the statue behind him.
No matter how pure the power of incense is, it has great exclusivity. Without conversion, living beings can absorb it, but statues of gods cannot.
For the past ten days or so, he has been changing the incense every night.
Setting up a temple to collect the incense and vows of millions of people cannot be accomplished overnight, but converting the incense and absorbing it through the statues to guide the Beidou Path Fruit is not as difficult as imagined.
Buzz!
Buzz!
Intermittent buzzing sounds came from the statue, resounding in Yang Yu's heart.
He concentrated on sensing the darkness and sensed the direction of Beidou Dao Fruit again.
[Introduction Ceremony: Extreme Killing...]
[Introduction ceremony: burning incense and making vows, setting up a temple to enshrine the gods...]
[Beidou induction is in progress...the induction is enhanced...]
[Estimated arrival time: Thirteen years and six months!]
[Burning incense can slightly increase the speed of arrival... Exhausting killing can greatly speed up...]
In the past half year or so, Beidou Daoguo seemed to have lost his way. At this moment, in his induction, the intermittent contact was about to be re-established.
And that passage comes from the purest incense wish that has been deposited and accumulated in the land for more than two thousand years...
"As expected, Beidou prefers killing to burning incense... However, thirteen years is not a long time. If I continue to burn incense, I may be able to shorten the time by half..."
Yang Yu thought to himself.
Setting up a temple to enshrine the gods was really effective, and the Beidou Daoguo was finally attracted by him and came from somewhere in the dark.
Once Beidou comes, he can even continue to attract other Dao Fruits to come according to the Beidou Ranking Map!
Longquan Realm has perfected the ceremony of receiving Dao Fruit to the extreme, and has become the Ten Capitals. Finding Dao Fruit is no longer just about luck.
"No wonder every sect's holy land has to build a city. Incense and vows are really a good thing..."
but……
Yang Yu glanced at the sea of mind, and the faint sound of Zen singing surged and gathered in the sea of his heart, lingering for a long time, and even gathering faintly.
This is the 'impurity' he stripped out of the incense.
These impurities are all the prayers and visions of Buddha in the hearts of Buddhist believers in the world of mountains and seas, which are infinitely beautiful and perfect.
This is not something he can use.
The reason why incense is also called the power of wishes is because these shallow wisps of incense contain the believers' prayers and visions for the gods they believe in.
But this is actually an impurity.
According to legend, even the ancient Buddha, the great Bodhisattva, and the lord of gods regarded it as impurities and would not accept it.
Because, in a sense, what these believers are praying for and yearning for is the perfect Buddha described in Buddhist scriptures that does not exist at all!
The perfection in imagination is definitely not something that real people or gods, or even Buddha, can achieve.
Taking in these impurities may not necessarily bring any benefits, but the disadvantages are extremely great.
Therefore, this is also called the ‘incense poison’!
Therefore, even if it takes a lot of effort, Yang Yu must peel off these 'impurities'...
"call!"
In the sea of mind, light and dark are mixed, and ripples appear from time to time.
Kuixing, dressed in red robes, dances with a sword, dancing wildly in the light and darkness, cutting off the connection with the Buddha's sound.
Wisps, threads, threads...
Kuixing spent a lot of money by dancing non-stop for more than ten days, and Yang Yu's already thin mana was exhausted many times.
And the strands of Zen sound gradually gathered in a corner, and there was a vague appearance of a Buddha...
"Great Sun Tathagata! Lu Chen is really brave, stealing the Buddha's name and receiving incense... However, this is a good idea!"
The thoughts in Yang Yu's mind were spinning, and there was an elephant cry and a long hiss within the Eighty-nine Mysterious Techniques embedded in the Cauldron of Gluttony.
Although he has stripped out these 'impurities', it does not mean that these impurities are useless.
On the contrary, the reason why he kept this incense crystal was because before he knew that the power of wish could lead Beidou to come, what he cared about most was that wisp of 'impurities'.
Buzz!
The shadow of the prison-suppressing idol descended into the sea of mind as if it were real. He stamped his feet and hissed, drawing the shadow of the Buddha who gathered the Zen sounds into the territory of the Eight-nine Mysterious Skills.
Down with suppression!
Click!
A crack suddenly appeared on the Eighty-Nine Mysterious Skill Mirror.
Yang Yu's reflection in the mirror suddenly stood up, and the bright golden light was sucked into his mouth and nose, burning like a raging fire.
Roar!
Buzz!
The prison-suppressing statue seems to be roaring with anger, colliding with the Zen sound, fighting, and grinding!
After Lu Chen broke through the calamity and traveled between the two realms, he achieved three transformations in the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills, but Yang Yu did not choose to 'absorb energy to create transformation'.
In addition to the fact that he is not ready yet, it is also because he has not completely mastered the second transformation, the Divine Elephant Transformation. As long as ordinary Qi enters, he will be defeated in one blow.
The majesty of the prison-suppressing idol is truly beyond expectation. Even an insignificant wisp of energy that has been separated by countless years and space has almost been turned away by it several times.
"The changes in the Eighty-nine Mysterious Techniques are not always better if they are stronger. If the changes are unbalanced, there is a possibility of backlash..."
Yang Yu was multitasking. While guiding Beidou, he also began to practice the third transformation of the Eight-Nine Mysterious Gong.
Of course it is not Lu Chen, nor incense, nor Zen music.
Rather, it is the aura of the Great Sun Tathagata that is described in Buddhist scriptures by hundreds of millions of Buddhist believers in the world of mountains and seas, and does not exist in reality, but is extremely beautiful and perfect!
After receiving the true biography of Taoist Yu Yu, Yang Yu certainly understood that the core of the Eight-Nine Mysterious Gong lies in change, and the balance between the changes lies in it.
Sitting in the center, regulating all changes and achieving balance, this is the real secret of the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills.
Tathagata is the tenth name of the Buddha, but it refers to perfect enlightenment, and the Great Sun does not refer to the sun, but to the boundless light that illuminates all darkness.
The true meaning taken together is 'the immeasurable light of wisdom and enlightenment dispels all evil evil spirits of darkness'.
If it can be said that the Heavenly Thunder governs the four seasons of heaven and causes all things to happen, even to the point of strength, then the divine image that suppresses all kinds of heavenly hells is the most powerful.
If the Great Sun Tathagata comes, it will be the greatest.
Even if they are large, soft and strong, they will blend with each other and be temporarily balanced, instead of causing the idols to riot from time to time, causing changes in their cultivation, as if there is no change at all.
Buzz!
In the Eighty-Nine Xuan Gong Mirror, light oscillates, thunder and lightning, divine images, and light interweave and change. In an instant, it flashes thousands of times, over and over again, seemingly without stopping.
[On the great day, the Tathagata changes (not completed, it needs to break two or three tribulations, and three transformations to accommodate it)]
[The third change of the Eight-Nine Mysterious Gong: The Great Sun Change]
Yang Yu sat in meditation, concentrating on all things, sensing various changes, and while receiving the Beidou Dao Fruit, he was also waiting for the sunset.
…
…
Huhuhu~
A ship cut through the sky, undulating and flashing in the sea of clouds. Its speed was extremely fast. One flash was a hundred miles away.
In an instant, it moved three times.
However, despite such a furious speed, the interior of the ship was extremely stable.
Separated by a door, the wind and clouds were howling outside, but there was a different scene inside.
Gardens, rockeries, springs, pavilions, sea of flowers, bamboo forests...
On the big lake, women with beautiful faces and figures wearing skirts danced on the lotus leaves, as graceful as butterflies.
"It's the same and boring!"
Suddenly, a young man in brocade clothes in the pavilion in the middle of the lake spoke. He pointed casually and said:
"Snow!"
The other person saw what he meant and smiled and said:
"wind!"
As the wind and snow exited, the wind and clouds suddenly changed color above the huge lake, the biting cold wind blew heavy snow, and the temperature dropped sharply!
"ah!"
A group of dancers wearing only skirts screamed in surprise, but they did not dare to stop. They faced the wind and snow and danced in the large shards of ice. Sometimes they would be stabbed to bleed if they were not careful.
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
Everyone in the pavilion in the center of the lake clapped their hands and smiled. The young man in gilded clothes picked up the wine pot and poured wine for the only unsmiling Taoist among the people:
"Senior Brother Jiang, if you keep the precepts, you don't have to be so pure in mind and have few desires. When you talk about deeds, you don't care about your heart. Who in the world can not break the precepts?"
"We practitioners should be pure in heart and have as few desires as possible. Although these girls are graceful and graceful, in the eyes of poor Taoists, they are just piles of bones..."
Jiang Qing shook his head slightly:
"Junior Brother Long, we are going down the mountain today to shoulder the duty of inspection. We must not indulge in pleasure!"
"Senior Brother Jiang is right."
The young man in brocade clothes just clicked his finger, and the frozen lake thawed, and dozens of dancers fell into the biting glacier.
"Yesterday, someone from Xieshan City sent an invitation, saying that there was a restaurant in his house with delicious food rarely seen in the world..."
Long Xiaoyun smiled slightly.
Everyone knows that Jiang Qing is not sexy, but he is very delicious.
"Yeah?"
As expected, Jiang Qing's throat squirmed for a moment, and he became interested:
"Then, Pindao can't miss it!"
Hmm... I can probably do three updates today. It's really hard to stay up late and be exhausted... However, there must be no less updates for the limited exemption.
