Lu Kun murmured and couldn't help but continue to ask, even his tone was a little excited.
"How do you know this is the moment of his death, and how do you know the identity of the Lingming Stone Monkey based on this mural alone?"
"Pavilion Master Lu followed me and took my time to look at it."
Abbot Zhiyuan could see Lu Kun's emotional changes, but he didn't ask anything. Instead, he took a step forward and walked to the next mural, saying with respect in his tone:
"Although this senior founder of Buddhism has not entered the alchemy stage, the Buddhist teachings he preached are extremely mysterious and can enlighten the world and spread at an extremely fast speed in the mortal world."
Lu Kun suppressed the doubts in his heart and looked forward. What was painted on the wall was a temple lobby. There were more than ten monks sitting inside, all reciting scriptures. However, there were no Buddha statues here. The monks were facing a portrait.
.
This portrait is the young monk in the first mural, holding a rosary, his eyes open and closed, and his face peaceful.
"Gradually, casual cultivators who are in the Qi-refining period join the Buddhist sect. They are all too old, with low qualifications, and have been abandoned by the cultivating sect." Zhiyuan said as he walked forward.
Lu Kun and Hong Yuntian also saw the next mural. It was still a temple, but an old man flying with a weapon appeared in the sky above it. His face was ferocious, his eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, and below it, there was a man who was chanting.
Buddhist monk.
"These casual cultivators are extremely obsessed with breaking through the realm and increasing their longevity. However, due to their limited qualifications, it is impossible to break through. There are problems with their mental state and they have caused great evil in the world."
"In Buddhist terms, they were obsessed with evil and lived a very painful life. Later, by chance, they were converted by a Buddhist senior with profound Dharma. They entered Buddhism and studied Buddhism."
"These casual cultivators found that through the study of Buddhism, their obsessions were greatly alleviated and their moods became peaceful. Later, more and more practitioners with deep obsessions joined the Buddhist sect."
"These senior cultivators studied Buddhism intensively, discussed with each other, and achieved breakthroughs in their cultivation. After hundreds of years of study, they found a path of cultivation with the help of Buddhism."
Zhiyuan continued to walk forward, and everyone's eyes fell on the next mural. At this time, many Buddhist monks with bare heads and Buddha beads in their hands appeared above the temple.
Flying without the help of magic weapons has obviously reached the realm of elixir formation.
"This kind of alternative Buddhist practice was quickly noticed by those who were interested in cultivating immortals. An elder of the cultivating sect even discovered that one of the Buddhist cultivators in the late stage of pill formation was an elderly disciple who had poor qualifications and was expelled from the sect.
.â
"This sect believes that it is the function of Buddhist cultivation methods that can enable people with low qualifications to practice to an extremely high level."
Zhiyuan did not stop. He looked at the mural in front of him and sighed: "The greed of immortal cultivators is more terrifying than that of ordinary mortals. Under the persecution of this sect, in order to protect the disciples, Buddhism, with a compassionate heart,
Hand over the exercises."
"How do those cultivators know that although the understanding of Buddhism has nothing to do with spiritual qualifications, it does require extremely high levels of understanding."
"These Buddhist seniors have been able to get rid of their previous obsessions and have reached a very deep state of Buddhism. The cultivation path they have created is closely related to the cultivation of Buddhism. Those cultivators who are extremely greedy will not only be unable to succeed in cultivation, but even
He will also become obsessed with it.â
The mural in front of everyone shows a middle-aged monk handing a jade slip to an old man carrying a long sword.
Zhiyuan said with a bit of sadness: "As a result, it can be imagined that this sect found that almost all the disciples who practiced Buddhist exercises went crazy and died, and those who were alive could not make any progress. They all thought that the seniors of the sect had deliberately given fake exercises. They
In the end, they came directly to the door."
Lu Kun and others looked at the next picture and found a group of immortal cultivators wearing the same clothes surrounding the Buddhist temple.
"Just when Buddhism was about to be exterminated, the Lingming Stone Monkey appeared. He showed terrifying strength. Not only did he kill all the offending immortal cultivators, he even massacred them all."
Listening to Zhiyuan's words, Lu Kun looked forward and saw a majestic ape painted on the wall, standing quietly in mid-air, with thunder and lightning and ice dragons, coupled with various wind spells, from
The top of its head surged out, drowning the group of immortal cultivators.
Zhiyuan lamented: "Senior Lingming Stone Monkey came into contact with Buddhism, and we only found out his identity. This evil-tempered and murderous monster turned out to be a disciple of the senior who founded Buddhism."
"What's more important is that in just four to five hundred years, this demon senior's cultivation has reached the demon king level."
"The reason why our Buddhist sect knows about the Lingming Stone Monkey is because this demon clan senior informed us about it. And under his protection, the Buddhist sect can grow up in the cruel world of immortality."
Hong Yuntian was amazed when he heard this. He looked at the mural in front of him. On the tiles of the temple roof, there lay a handsome ape with a straw in his mouth and his legs crossed.
He heard from Lu Kun that this demon king had finally reached the late stage of demon king cultivation. With such strength, he could completely break the void and soar to the upper world by relying on his own ability. Who would have expected that he would die together with an enemy.
Lu Kun was in a daze, repeating Zhiyuan's words in his mind.
"Lingming Stone Monkey is the disciple of that senior Buddhist..."
Although he didn't read any messy novels when he was on Earth, how could he not know about the famous Journey to the West? Zhiyuan's narration and the previous mural helped Lu Kun identify the handsome monk.
It was the eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty, Tang Xuanzang.
According to the speed of time in the world of immortality, more than 100,000 years ago, that is, more than 1,000 years ago on earth, was the era of the Tang Dynasty, which is completely correct.
Tang Xuanzang was the founder of Buddhism in the world of immortality. In other words, like Lu Kun, he came from the earth, but wasn't he immortal? How did he pass away?
Well, even if the immortality is false, his qualifications cannot be so bad that he cannot form an elixir. Otherwise, how could there be so many monsters caring about his body...
In addition to Tang Xuanzang, there are also the Four Monkeys.
The stone from which the Lingming Stone Monkey was reborn is in the Body Refining Pavilion, and Lu Kun, the Brachiosaurus Monkey, has its bloodline. With Xiao Jin's appearance and supernatural powers, he must be a six-eared macaque. Only the Red-Sided Horse Monkey, he did not find any clues about.
He saw three of the Four Monkeys, most likely they came from the earth. Now in this Buddhist holy land, he found traces of Tang Xuanzang's existence.
That is to say, the gods and Buddhas in the earth's mythology also exist, but where have they gone? Why are three of the four monkeys in the world coming over, but there is no trace of these existences?
Although Lu Kun didn't know what kind of magical powers there were in the upper realm's integration stage, in his opinion, there was no way they could compare to the legendary gods and Buddhas on Earth.
Even if their magical powers are only a small part of those in mythology, how could the human race be so miserable? Not only do they not have strong men in charge, but they even learn the techniques from foreign races.
Moreover, in Lu Kun's impression, those gods and Buddhas seemed to be divided into the Eastern and Western religions, but they were mainly divided into two factions: Buddhism and Taoism.
The Buddha in this world of immortality was brought by Tang Xuanzang, but what about the Tao? Could it be that the Taoist sect was also brought here by a certain mythological figure? What about the monsters? What do the monsters and įįŽ´ he had seen have to do with the earth?
.
After Lu Kun confirmed Tang Xuanzang's identity, more and more doubts appeared in his mind, and his body even started to tremble.
"Lu Kun, what's wrong with you..."
Lu Kun took a deep breath, calmed down and said, "Brother Hong, as an elder of the Yiyuan Sect, do you know the origin of the human race's Taoist sect."
"Taomen?"
Hong Yuntian asked strangely: "Isn't Tao just about cultivating immortals? Taoism and the sect of cultivating immortals have the same meaning. From your tone, does the word Tao have other meanings?"
When Lu Kun heard this, he couldn't help frowning. Only then did he realize that there was a huge difference between this world of cultivating immortals and the ancient cultivating immortals on earth. They seemed to be two completely different paths.
Although he didn't know how the gods and Buddhas in mythology practiced cultivation, he at least knew that the word "Tao" should be somewhat similar to Buddhism and was related to the cultivation of mental state.
However, the techniques of cultivating the immortal world only have something to do with cultivating the mind when you reach the stage of becoming a god and need to understand the power of will.
Seeing Lu Kun's expression, Zhiyuan couldn't help but ask: "How did Pavilion Master Lu know about the Lingming Stone Monkey? He seems to know the founder of our Buddhism."
Lu Kun was silent for a moment and said slowly: "In addition to the giant ape, Lu also has some bloodline of the spiritual stone monkey. He has seen fragmentary bloodline memories, but the information is limited. He only knows that the senior who founded Buddhism is called Tang Xuanzang.
."
He did not tell the truth, but hid the origin of Tang Xuanzang and the immortals and Buddhas in the earth's mythology deep in his heart.
Facing the mysteries that appeared in his heart, Lu Kun felt the urge to clear away the fog and seek the truth. In addition, there was also an unspeakable fear in his heart...
