Chapter Thirteen: Bold Monk, I can tell at a glance that you are not a demon!
"The West has secrets to find the truth, but Jinmu and Tong can refine the gods."
"This is the truth-seeking elixir."
Huang Shang held a round and shiny elixir in his hand, showing a look of joy.
The Buddhist alchemy furnace is really useful. If you were still on Jiuwei Mountain, you would never be able to practice such elixirs.
As for borrowing chickens to lay eggs, the tools were all provided by Baolin Temple, so no one knew about it, and there was no way to investigate.
Oh, by the way, I hope the alchemy furnace is okay. After all, it will be tiring to make aphrodisiacs during the day and real elixirs at night.
??!
After hoping, Huang Shang took the Truth-Seeking Pill.
Knowing one's mind, seeing one's nature and seeking one's true self, Buddhism pursues the aura of one's own nature. This truth-seeking elixir can not only improve Taoism, but also enhance the effect of enlightenment. It can be regarded as a pretty good elixir at this stage.
Even if the six-eared macaque is extremely talented, it still needs enlightenment.
The world of heaven and earth is far more complicated than the world of fairy swords.
Not to mention that Huang Shang did not alert the will of the world, nor did he make any request to take pictures. Even if he wanted to take pictures, he would not be able to take pictures of the charm of heaven in this world.
There is a huge gap between the big world and the small world.
The moment he took the elixir, Huang Shang's mind wandered, and he had a lot of doubts and vigilance about the attacks from the outside world.
The strong men sent by the main temple this time are indeed large in number and powerful, combining the power of the East and West districts, but compared with the Great World of Journey to the West, they still don't seem to be enough.
The gods and demons in the main temple have restraint against the world of heavens, but the gods and demons in the world of heavens have also overcome the adversity of gods and demons, and appear to guard and patrol. With the size of the world of Journey to the West, it is impossible to lack seven-star and eight-star demons.
Star rating, if you just look at the strength comparison between the two sides, the main temple has no chance of winning.
Unfortunately, not all worlds are monolithic.
One of the standards for a war world is that a plot war sweeping the world breaks out within the plot world, and reincarnations take advantage of it.
There must be chaos internally before outsiders can take advantage of it.
Journey to the West is also a war mode. Does it mean that when the reincarnations officially enter, there will be a war sweeping the world?
"If we really fight openly and openly, it will be easier to handle. If we have the opportunity to persuade all parties to put aside their old opinions and speak unanimously to the outside world, I am afraid of playing dirty tricks..."
The two tribes of gods and demons in the world of fairy swords originally fought and opposed each other around the Well of Gods and Demons. Later, they put aside their old opinions and unanimously faced the outside world.
I'm afraid of those secret confrontations, the silent penetration of moisturizing things, and when it really explodes, it will be out of control!
"The power of domination is enough to accomplish this."
Huang Shang was not sure before, but he experienced it last time.
The big world is a place where masters can come and exert their nine-star mighty power. But with the current situation of the nine masters in the heavens, how can we know whether what comes is good or bad?
Among other things, Nuwa has penetrated into the body of the psychic stone monkey and is now hiding in the body of the six-eared macaque.
This force was pressed but not released, and could not be noticed for the time being, but Huang Shang had a feeling that Nuwa was definitely not the only one who had penetrated inside this time.
Once the big world is captured, those masters who were already in a bad situation will definitely be in even worse condition.
This is a vicious cycle!
"On the way to improving your own strength, you must also pay attention to this point!"
After figuring out the overall situation, Huang Shang's thoughts returned to the path of cultivation in front of him.
Take the Truth Seeking Pill, then observe the two Vajra statues with real things at the door, and start practicing.
After a while, his face changed. He bared his teeth, golden smoke rose, and his six ears flipped continuously, making him look extremely ferocious.
It was as if there was an overbearing monkey inside the body, trying to break out, completely take over the body's actions, and release its wild nature at all costs.
After the Daoxing is improved, the wild nature rises, which is the second innate fetter of the demon clan.
Wildness needs to be maintained, but it cannot be indulged.
If everything is done by wild nature, then why do the monsters activate their spiritual intelligence? They are still like beasts and beasts.
This kind of shackles is extremely difficult for other demon clans, but for Huang Shang, it is nothing.
He has experience.
Similar to Wuming's path, he was powerful enough when he was born, but couldn't control it, so he had to seal most of his power, and then slowly unblock it as he grew up.
Practicing with this kind of thinking will get twice the result with half the effort.
And there is cooperation from the outside.
He looked at the two Vajras, and instead of looking at them correctly, he was fighting fire with fire.
If you understand Buddhist techniques and take Buddhist elixirs, you will also be influenced by Buddhism.
Xu Ziling in the original plot of The World of Tang Dynasty is an example. As he practiced his character and ideas, he became more and more inclined to Buddhism, so he just needed to practice on his behalf.
This is a subtle influence.
You get tricked unconsciously.
Why are there so many monster-sage-level beings in this world willing to be ridden by those Bodhisattvas?
It is because one’s nature has been distorted by Buddhism, but one thinks that one has returned from the lost path.
Huang Shang clearly saw this kind of method, so he had planned it early.
Use the wild and out-of-control demon clan to counteract the subtle influence of Buddhism.
Dog eat dog.
"Huh?"
The practice was going very smoothly. So far, he had taken two batches of Truth-Seeking Pills, and his Taoism had improved by leaps and bounds. But surprisingly, the two Vajra Dharmas also became different.
Before, I was reluctant to open my mind, but now there is Buddha light flying out from inside, like particles of vitality, heading towards the light of the Great Ming Mantra.
Two traditions come to mind:
"The Eight Heavenly Dragon Sutras"
"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra"
"It's just the Eight Heavenly Dragons, why does Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva join in the fun?"
Huang Shang was confused.
The Eight Heavenly Dragons are the protectors of Buddhism. Well, they are the official thugs. Among them, Emperor Shakti sits on the first seat.
So Xu Fu is really uneducated. He thinks that if he has a talent, he will be awesome...
Because of this nature, the "Eight Parts of the Heavenly Dragon Sutra" is all about fighting methods.
Low style, but full of combat effectiveness.
As for "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra", it is the confession book of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
If I don’t go to hell, who will? Only when all sentient beings are saved can we realize Bodhi. If hell is not empty, we will never become a Buddha!
This scripture talks about the law of cause and effect. At first glance, it seems that good causes lead to good results, but when you look closely, it is very profound, and Huang Shang still sees it in a foggy way.
He has rich experience and has understanding in many fields, but he really has no research on cause and effect.
I'm confused, I just think it's awesome.
Awesome, awesome!
When I mentioned Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, I also thought of listening.
The ones who saw through the true form of the six-eared macaque were Tathagata and Tingting. Tathagata Buddha had great supernatural powers, but his own strength was too strong. Tingting was comparable in terms of hearing, but his combat power was insufficient.
However, it is worth being solemn. If you have time, you can go to hell to have a look and exchange experiences on eavesdropping.
"It's hard to lose enthusiasm, so just keep practicing!"
…
The days of cultivation are always so boring.
The business of Baolin Temple has been better recently. According to a friend of the king who did not want to disclose his identity, the efficacy of the elixirs here has been improved to a higher level, and the concubines in the palace showed smiles that they had not seen for a long time.
If he is good, so are we.
Upon hearing that the concubine was happy, the dignitaries came to hear the news, and the abbot of Baolin Temple showed a reserved smile.
If they are good, so am I.
It's so good, I have enough medicinal materials.
In terms of medicinal materials, the caves in the mountains and forests occupied by the demon clan are more convenient to collect.
But the demon clan doesn't know how to preserve it, while the human kingdom has stocks accumulated over the years.
King Longyan was delighted, and with a wave of his hand, one cart after another was pulled in.
This time, even Huang Shang and Di Yong were healed.
Hello everyone, this is really good.
He pulled out the Xunzhen Pill one after another and threw it into his mouth like eating broad beans.
The six-eared macaque may not be able to enjoy the good thing that Wukong drank the Nine-Turn Golden Pill in Tushita Palace in his lifetime, but as a monkey, the most important thing is to be happy. Huang Shang is not picky. He can eat high-end and use low-end.
He felt that at the low end, Tao Xing was advancing by leaps and bounds, and he was so happy that he rolled his eyes and stuck out his tongue.
When will a demon from a humble background be able to use its alchemy furnace, refine its elixirs, wear its pajamas, and sleep in its Buddhist meditation hall...
There seems to be something wrong, but he has become stronger anyway.
"Brother, I have achieved clairvoyance!"
On this day, Diyong came in even more excitedly and announced the good news.
"Oh? Come and have a look!"
Huang Shang was also curious.
"open!"
Di Yong smiled brightly, his eyes lit up, and two rays of dark golden light that were as solid as substance shot out.
Huang Shang suddenly felt like he was being seen through.
All magical changes cannot be concealed from this gaze.
This is clairvoyance.
The functions are divided into endoscopic, microscopic, fluoroscopic and remote viewing.
To put it more bluntly, they are magnifying glasses, x-rays, and telescopes.
An international movie star once said that there is scientific truth in Journey to the West, and this is it...
After feeling the Diyong girl's clairvoyance, Huang Shang nodded with approval: "The eyes are the door of wisdom and the window of the soul. The clairvoyance can distinguish objects clearly and increase knowledge. The higher the level, the wider the scope of its effect. You can't use it to
It should be regarded as a simple magical power, but should be included in inner alchemy practice!"
Di Yong smiled like a flower, imagining that when she drilled holes in the future, she would be able to continuously see through. This improvement was not ordinary. The underground was so big that she could roam freely. She said happily: "Brother, you should also learn the Six Paths of Buddhism."
Yeah, that’s awesome!”
"It's really awesome, but I can't learn it for the time being!"
Huang Shang smiled slightly.
The Six Paths of Buddhism are famous.
Heavenly eyes and ears are connected, other minds are connected, destiny is connected, divine feet are connected, and leaks are connected.
Tian Er Tong mentioned before that in his own cave, he didn't dare to tell the truth because he was afraid that the walls had ears.
However, having a clear ear does not mean that whatever you say will be heard by Buddhists. After all, there are too many living beings and fluctuations in all things, so you cannot accept them all.
Just like when he was in the city of Wuji Kingdom, he heard countless chaotic sounds. If he accepted them all, his head would probably explode.
Even Tathagata Buddha cannot accept all the information in the entire world of Journey to the West. He is always in a state of analysis and must make choices.
The ability required for this choice is the way of cause and effect.
You said something bad about me. This is the reason. With this reason, when the clairvoyance eavesdrops, other things will be excluded, and the bad words will be screened out, and then the evil consequences will be dealt with.
So the most powerful thing is not just one magical power, but also coordination.
It is like threads woven into a net that covers the heaven and the earth.
It also covers practitioners.
Huang Shang is very self-aware. Unless he is willing to serve as a mount for Buddhism, at this stage, he is not qualified to practice the six powers of Buddhism. That is simply throwing himself into a trap. It is better to honestly follow the path of inner alchemy.
As for Diyong, because she has already been in the game, instead of self-righteously fighting against fate, it is better to be prepared for real resistance at any time.
"Continue to practice, don't be greedy for too much, just practice clairvoyance!"
"Okay!"
…
You don’t know how many years you have spent practicing cultivation.
A month passed leisurely.
Something big happened, and the king of Wuji Kingdom was in trouble.
Cause of death: too violent at night.
Ending: Nationwide mourning.
The abbot of Baolin Temple cried especially loudly.
Then I vowed to close the alchemy room and not refine elixirs for a year!
Huang Shang and Di Yong said they were very dry.
Fortunately, during this period, they also made enough.
Not to mention the materials in the temple, even the materials from the five mountains and nine ridges are used in various ways.
So even if the old king is still as powerful as ever, he still has to carry more than a dozen barrels of truth-seeking pills and leave.
"All the feasts in the world come to an end, let's go!"
He was reluctant to say goodbye. Seeing Jiqiu lying on the purple stove, crying like a white-haired person leaving a black-haired person, Huang Shang pulled her off and left without any regrets.
After all, isn’t it a place where you can stay for a long time and wait for an accident to happen?
They didn't know that as they left Baolin Temple and went abroad, a wandering monk passed by, suddenly raised his brows, and headed towards the city.
This monk had shabby clothes and no shoes. He had a bald head and bare feet, but his eyes were extremely bright. There was a smile at the corner of his mouth. He looked unrestrained and unrestrained, not at all like a Buddhist.
The king was speechless. There were fewer carriages and horses in front of the temple. However, as soon as he arrived at the gate of Baolin Temple, the monks who were welcoming the guests stopped him in advance and drove him away: "Go! Go! We can't keep monks from far away here!"
The young monk was not angry, and clasped his hands together and said: "The monasteries and monasteries in the world are all the residences of our master. There are three liters of rice at the gate. Why don't you keep me?"
The welcoming monk frowned: "You, a wandering monk, are so glib and glib!"
The young monk was not annoyed: "What does it mean to be glib?"
The welcoming monk rolled his eyes and said, "A few years ago, a traveling monk also came to our mountain gate. Seeing that he was poor, the host treated him to a meal and gave him his old clothes. Unexpectedly, this monk was greedy for free food and clothing, so he stayed in the temple all the time.
He was finally driven away by us, and his words are just like yours!"
As soon as he said this, the other monks smiled together.
This is a clear sign that the person who is mocking is a beggar.
When the young monk heard this, he explained seriously: "Begging for flowers, the word "hua" comes from "hua", which comes from monks begging for alms, and later it refers to beggars in general. Monks and beggars are originally from the same family!"
The monks were stunned. The monk who welcomed the guests became angry and was about to yell, when the sad voice of the host came from the courtyard: "Wisdom Staff, let him in!"
"yes!"
The welcoming monk stared at him angrily and then stepped aside.
The young monk put his hands together and smiled, walked in, and stopped in front of the two Vajra statues. After meeting the host, he walked around the backyard again and whispered: "Interesting! Interesting! That little mouse is back.
!”
After figuring out the cause of the matter, he showed no nostalgia for the splendid palace and the delicious vegetarian food, and left directly, leaving Wuji Country and heading towards Wuyu Mountain.
…
But Huang Shanghe returned to Wuyu Mountain and immediately recruited a group of younger brothers and sisters.
Over the sea, the three great powers and the chickens, ducks and fish arrived in force, bringing with them tens of thousands of well-trained little monsters.
No matter how undisciplined the little monster is, as long as the stick is enough, it can be trained to behave.
The purpose of such intensive military deployment is not for anything else but to continue to expand.
It is a long and slender strip that connects Mount Jiuwei to Mount Wuyu and is located in the deep mountains on the side of Wuji Country.
If they don't want to capture the Wuji Kingdom, then the next step is Wujueling in the east.
In this place, there is a real big monster with five hundred years of Taoism. Diyong didn't dare to provoke it before, but now he can encounter it.
It's not that they are looking for trouble, but the territory occupied by this kind of big demon, the level of heavenly materials and earthly treasures is not comparable to that now.
Occupy a better territory, obtain more treasure materials, refine higher-level elixirs, improve your Taoism after taking them, and then conquer a larger territory.
A virtuous cycle.
Of course, we need to strengthen the team first——
The eldest brother, Huntian, has fifty years of Taoism and great magical powers;
The second sister, Diyong, has three hundred years of Taoism and magical powers;
The third brother, overturning the sea, has practiced Taoism for one hundred and fifty years, and has supernatural powers that can overturn rivers;
The fourth brother, Hu Li, has two hundred years of Taoism and magical powers of the five thunders;
The fifth brother, Yang Li, has practiced Taoism for 149 years and has the magical power to breathe wind;
The sixth brother, Lu Li, has one hundred and forty-eight years of Taoism, and possesses supernatural powers and hidden forms;
The seventh brother, a beautiful chicken, has practiced Taoism for a hundred years, has supernatural powers, sings and dances;
…
Daoxing is an important basis for reference of strength, but it also depends on racial talent. For example, before Fu Hai was a rookie, but after his Daoxing increased to a hundred years, the Huli who could defeat him in the past has been defeated.
But this time, the opponent is not easy either.
"The Lord of Wujueling is a centipede spirit with hundreds of eyes under his belly. He is known as the Hundred-Eyed Demon King and has powerful magical powers!"
"I have fifteen commanders under my command, each commanding two thousand demon troops. They are well-trained!"
After listening to Diyong's introduction, all the big demons looked solemn.
No matter how fast our own side develops, looking at hard power alone, it cannot compare to this old monster who has accumulated hundreds of years of savings.
This battle is all about surprise and calculation.
Of course, even if you can perform your best at the tactical level, it will still be a tough battle in darkness.
Huang Shang acted vigorously and immediately led his army towards Wujue Ridge. Within a night, they reached the edge of the two territories.
Looking from a distance, a layer of mist fell between the sky and the earth, which was the Wujue Sha unique to Wujue Ridge.
It is also interesting to say that Wuyu Mountain is named after fog, but there is no such heavy fog that covers the mountain. Wujue Mountain was originally endowed with the energy of heaven and earth, with strong spiritual intelligence and abundant treasures. Later, it suffered disasters and its energy became rough.
, the landform became weird. With this heavy fog, humans and animals were banned, and only the demon tribe could survive. It was considered a forbidden land.
Since it is a forbidden area, the Hundred-Eyed Demon King is also very prestigious, and the surrounding people dare not violate it. Over time, they have also relaxed their vigilance. Up to this point, the army has never seen a little whirlwind on guard.
The demons couldn't help but feel happy, even Huang Shang's lips raised.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt a wave of cause and effect.
Huang Shang's demonic power turned around, his six ears twitched, and he heard Di Yong's eyes shooting out golden light, falling on his formation:
"Bold monk, I can tell at a glance that you are not a demon!"
