Every inch of Buddha land here is blooming with a faint light of Buddha, golden lotuses are everywhere, and the sound of chanting and chanting Buddha is heard all the time. It is indeed a paradise world.
And living in this Buddhist land, the monks with the lowest moral standards are all immortals who have cultivated the soul. They do not have the sorrow and sorrow of ordinary people. They worship Buddha, listen to the Dharma and practice meditation every day.
The Pure Land is naturally not for mortals. Only gods and demons, those who can live a long and happy life, will not worry about life and death, and will be free and at ease.
"Junior Brother Bailian, when can master and the old man see me?"
Outside the Eight Treasures Merit Pond, Maitreya Buddha held a Buddhist disciple who looked to be no more than eleven or twelve years old and asked anxiously. He had been waiting here for almost a day.
The Buddha's features were delicate and delicate, and his face was childish. However, his eyes were not as clear as those of a child. Instead, they had experienced the vicissitudes of life.
His name is Bai Lian, and he has been serving Saint Chunti since the dawn of time. He is not much younger than Maitreya.
"Brother, why should you be anxious? The Buddha Mother is discussing important matters with the Buddha. It will be over in about half an hour. You can wait a little longer." Bai Lian boy said with a smile.
Although Lingshan is in Xiniuhezhou, it is not in Xiniuhezhou. However, the saint used Lingshan to connect to the heaven with his supreme magic power, so this place is also called Xitian.
Otherwise, how can countless Buddhists with great supernatural powers, including the two saints, be allowed to practice with only a cave in Hezhou, Xiniu?
This is also the main reason why many gods and demons have opened their own dojos. If there are too many people, the spiritual energy of the fairy mountain cave will not be enough.
Half an hour is half a month in the mortal world. It is neither short nor long.
Maitreya breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that his sex would suddenly arise and he would suddenly have to retreat. For a saint like him, once he retreats, ten thousand years will pass in the blink of an eye. Although it is still the time of the catastrophe of the Journey to the West, the other party will not do this. However,
Who can say for sure?
After the Taoist ancestor Hongjun preached, six saints were born in the ancient continent, Sanqing, Nuwa, and two Buddhas, Zhunti and Jieyin, who were his disciples of Buddhism.
The demon clan has long been in decline, and Nuwa is the only saint of the demon clan, let alone her. After the great catastrophe of becoming a god, the three Qing Dynasties parted ways, and their faces were at odds with each other. After this catastrophe, the two saints of the Buddhist sect were united.
Great for it.
But, that black lotus...
Thinking of that black lotus, Maitreya couldn't help but feel heavy in his heart. After the war that year, the black lotus had long since disappeared without a trace, but now it was born during the Great Tribulation of Journey to the West, and he didn't know if there would be any trouble.
All kinds of thoughts lingered in my heart, and in the blink of an eye, half an hour passed. The white lotus boy came out again and said: "Brother Maitreya, Mother Buddha, please come in."
Maitreya nodded, suppressed his thoughts, and strode into it.
This is a valley with beautiful scenery, but the most eye-catching one is the pond.
The pool is surrounded by many Buddhist treasures, and the water is golden and extremely clear, exuding a strong Zen flavor and Buddhist power. It is the well-known Eight Treasures Merit Pool in Buddhism.
It can be seen that there are many aquatic creatures swimming in the water, each with strong aura, and the weaker ones are earth immortals, heavenly immortals, golden immortals and even Taiyi, there are quite a few of them.
Next to the Eight Treasures Merit Pool, there is an ancient green tree several feet high standing.
That ancient tree contains a very strong breath of life and an inexplicable sense of pure Zen. It is the Bodhi tree with innate spiritual roots.
Maitreya walked towards the Bodhi tree. As he got closer and closer to the Bodhi tree, his heart became more ethereal. All the distracting thoughts and anxiety just now disappeared without a trace. His heart was peaceful, free from joy and worry, and he forgot all the troubles.
This is the extraordinary thing about the bodhi tree. When you approach this place, everything is different. It is like the incarnation of the great road. It can calm the mind, prevent all evils from invading, and fall into the deepest state of enlightenment. It is the first auxiliary practice in the world.
A treasure.
However, except for the two saints, there are not many people who are qualified to practice this innate spiritual root below. He practiced below once when he first broke through to the quasi-sage, and Tathagata, when he broke through to the later stage of the quasi-sage, also practiced below.
Meditate down there for ten thousand years.
Even the two of them were like this, and the other gods and demons didn't even have to think about it.
This innate spiritual root and the Eight Treasures Merit Pool can be said to be the foundation of Buddhism. The Seven Treasures Tree, the magic weapon of his master, Saint Zhunti, was also refined from a branch of the Bodhi tree.
The Eight Treasures Merit Pool was not that big. After a while, Maitreya walked through it and came to the Bodhi tree.
The bark of this innate spiritual root tree is cracked and spread out like dragon scales. The trunk is only half a meter thick. It looks like a coiled dragon, winding and stretching into the air. The highest point is only a few feet above the ground.
The leaves and fruits on it all bloom with emerald green brilliance, not only containing abundant vitality, but also flowing with the brilliance of the Dao. Each leaf and fruit is completely different, representing a unique Dao.
It is a treasure that countless gods and demons can only hope for.
All kinds of leaves and fruits have unique and precious charms. A tree is so brilliant that it is so dazzling that it makes people get lost.
Maitreya could hardly control his mood, so he wanted to sit down cross-legged and practice.
Fortunately, he saw two figures under the tree. They were saints, Zhunti and Qingyin.
Saint Zhunti has a rosy face and a compassionate smile. He sits cross-legged on the lotus platform. His whole body exudes the pure glazed Buddha light, making people unable to help but worship him.
On the other hand, the saint who received the invitation was withered and short, with a sallow complexion and a sad look on his face, more like a worried old mortal than a saint.
However, Maitreya knew the power of the Buddha, and among the two Buddhas, the Buddha was the most respected. However, he usually did not care about Buddhist affairs at all, and mostly worried about the saints.
"Master, disciples are polite." Maitreya clasped his hands together and bowed respectfully.
Saint Zhunti raised his hand to show his displeasure, and then asked with a smile: "Maitreya, why are you here? What confusions arise in your practice?"
This disciple of his has always climbed to Lingshan Mountain for no reason. After all, he is the future Buddha. With the Tathagata stationed at Lingshan Mountain, he always wants to avoid suspicion. The last time he came, he still begged him to borrow the twelve-grade golden lotus of merit and virtue for enlightenment and practice.
"I came here to express my gratitude to Master and Uncle Yin, and to return the twelve-grade golden lotus of merit. I also have two other important things to attend to," Maitreya said.
"You have only borrowed it for less than a thousand years. Why are you so anxious to return it? You should keep it for a while to understand. The golden lotus of merits contains the way you can lead a saint to your uncle. If you can understand one or two things, it will help you break through to the post-quasi-sage realm."
There are benefits.”
The Golden Lotus of Merit and Virtue was not born into the twelfth grade, but a golden lotus seed of merit and virtue. After being nurtured by the saint, it became the twelfth grade when he became a saint.
Sage Zhunti felt sorry for his disciple, and naturally wanted Maitreya to understand something more. After all, the original master of Buddhism should have been his disciple, but first came Deng Deng, and then came Tathagata. In order to strengthen Buddhism,
I had no choice but to feel aggrieved by Maitreya.
Jie Yin closed his eyes and did not express any objection. He didn't know whether he heard it or not.
However, the difference between being in Maitreya's hands and being in his hands is not that big. The twelve-grade golden lotus of merit has the imprint of his soul, and with a single thought, it can be easily recalled even if it is far away from all the worlds.
"Let's talk about the other two things." Zhunti said.
"Yes, Master, these two things are the same thing. A few days ago, my two incompetent disciples were in trouble in the lower world, and the second disciple was a monkey..."
Maitreya Buddha told everything that happened in the Land of Ten Thousand Demons that day, not even concealing the fact that he took out the twelve-grade golden lotus of merit and virtue but was immobilized by the Great Master of Xuandu with the Tai Chi Diagram.
After hearing this, Zhunti shook his head and smiled, saying: "This old gentleman is so generous, he actually gave the Tai Chi Diagram to Xuandu. My disciple, your realm is one level lower than his, so naturally you will not be able to resist this heaven-opening treasure."
"You came to me because you wanted me to come forward and rescue the tamaji monkey, right?"
"That's right, although the Siberian Ape is stubborn, if he goes through this calamity and practices with concentration, he may not have the chance to break through to the Great Luo Jinxian in the future. I hope Master will be very compassionate." Maitreya bowed his head and saluted.
Now that the person is in the hands of the Heavenly Court, with the Jade Emperor sitting in charge, it is impossible to directly rob the person based on his Taoism, so we can only ask the saints.
"The Cobra-armed Monkey, one of the four monkeys in this world, is no less qualified than the Lingming Stone Monkey. I can assist you in this matter."
Zhunti agreed with a smile. He was devoted to Buddhism. His words of "I have a destiny with Buddhism" and Shen Gongbao's "Fellow Taoist, please stay" are two of the most terrifying events in history. The latter will be listed on the list, and the former
Then you must enter Buddhism.
A future Buddhist Daluo Jinxian is naturally worthy of this saint.
"Disciple thanks Master for saving the life of the monkey!" Maitreya thanked him, but he felt relieved.
On the demon-slaying platform, both body and soul were destroyed. That was no joke. Although the Jade Emperor was weak when facing saints, he was really decisive in killing other gods and demons.
But if you do it right, there won't be any problems.
"Tell me about it, there is a second thing. If you ask me to deal with Xuandu for you, it would be a shame for me as a teacher." Zhunti said relaxedly, obviously in a good mood.
It's indeed good. The Great Tribulation of Journey to the West is now progressing and is about to end. It can take as short as one year or as long as two years. The group of five people who collect the scriptures will arrive at Lingshan. By then, the Buddhist scriptures will be spread throughout the four major continents, overwhelming the world.
Door.
"Master is joking. What I want to say is the Supreme Saint's new second disciple, Mo Li."
Maitreya said seriously: "On Mo Li, the disciple discovered the world-destroying black lotus seed that had long since disappeared without a trace!"
"What did you say?!"
Zhunti's complexion suddenly changed.
The Buddha, who had closed his eyes and seemed to be wandering in a trance, then opened his eyes and looked at Maitreya.
Two waves of holy power immediately fell on Maitreya, and the fat monk couldn't bear the pressure. He groaned and fell to the ground.
Fortunately, this holy power was only revealed due to the momentary excitement of the two people. When the two saints saw his appearance, they immediately came back to their senses and calmed down their momentum.
Jie Yin asked in a hoarse voice: "Are you serious about what you said?"
"I don't dare to deceive my uncle. Mo Li can't do Taiyi Golden Immortal Dao practice, and he can't hide it from his disciples. The world-destroying black lotus has already formed a third-grade lotus platform."
"The third-grade lotus platform has been formed. It seems to have been refined."
Zhunti looked solemn and said, "Where is this person now?"
"After my disciple was captured by Master Xuandu and went to heaven, he has never been seen again, and I don't know where he is at this time." Maitreya said.
"This matter is of great importance. Don't tell anyone. Go down and find out where this person is and tell me immediately." Zhunti ordered in a serious tone.
"Yes, Master."
Maitreya also understood the relationship between this matter, otherwise he would not have come directly to find the two saints.
"Go quickly."
Zhunti waved his hand, and Maitreya immediately left and left.
Seeing that he was gone, a trace of sadness appeared on Zhunti's face and he said: "Brother, what do you think of this matter?"
Jie Yin's face became increasingly sad, and he sighed and said: "This is the cause and effect between you and me. Now that we are here, we can't hide. We can only use troops to block the water and cover it with the earth."
"If we kill that guy in advance, wouldn't everything stop?" A stern look flashed in Zhunti's eyes.
"No, since he was accepted by Laojun, Laojun has his own plan. If we kill his disciples, he will not sit idly by and ignore it. What's more, this lotus seed has already appeared in the world, how can killing one or two people change it?
Yes, we still need to solve the root cause." Jieyin advised.
"In this case, we can only wait. It's been such an eventful time. Finally, the teacher is no longer here. You and I had a chance to stand out, but unexpectedly, the World-Destroying Black Lotus appeared again." Zhunti sighed, in a very bad mood.
"Amitabh."
Jie Yin whispered the Buddha's name, and the atmosphere in the valley became extremely heavy for a moment.
…
Wanshou Mountain, Wuzhuang Temple.
After listening to Zhen Yuanzi's story about the fetal membrane of the earth, Mo Li couldn't help but feel something in his heart.
He had heard of this treasure, but he didn't know its whereabouts.
Legend has it that at the beginning of the world, there were three books of heaven, earth and man, all of which had special effects.
The book of the day is the list of gods, and it is now in Yuxu Palace, and the book of people is turned into a calligraphy book, which controls the lifespan of billions of living beings. Both of them are well known, but the book of the earth is the most mysterious. No one knows its whereabouts, but unexpectedly in the town
In the hands of Motoko.
Sure enough, these great supernatural beings who were born at the beginning of the world and who are still alive today are all people with profound blessings. One or two of them have extraordinary circumstances.
Although he didn’t know why the other party gave him ginseng fruit, the power of his origin, and a ray of divine light from the Heaven and Earth Treasure Book, since the other party dared to give it away, Mo Li dared to accept it.
He is the direct descendant of Tushita Palace, how dare the other party harm him?!
Thinking of this, Li Moli said without hesitation: "Since the Great Immortal has shown his kindness, this disciple will be disrespectful. Thank you very much, Great Immortal."
Now he bowed his head and bowed.
"Slow down, take your time, this is a gift of apology, how can it be used as a word of thanks?"
Zhen Yuanzi laughed and said: "However, if you want to open this treasure mirror of heaven and earth and intercept the divine light of Wuji Wutu in the cave, you still need a drop of blood from my little friend. Only in this way can the divine light be absorbed into the body, like an arm.
