About five miles away, there was a clear river, and Lin Mu saw a group of white elephants drinking water there.
"White elephant, this is a sacred beast of Buddhism, and the five aggregates and six dusts are also the teachings of Buddhism. It seems that this cave of five aggregates and six dusts belongs to the saints of Buddhism."
What Lin Mu saw and heard afterwards also confirmed his suspicion.
He saw a leopard, but this leopard did not eat meat or hunt. Instead, it grazed there like cattle.
This method, only found in Buddhism, can erase the leopard's ferocious nature and turn it into a docile animal.
However, Lin Mu did not agree with the methods of this Buddhist master at all.
Leopards are carnivores and should be ferocious by nature. If a leopard has no ferocity and eats grass instead of meat, can it still be called a leopard?
This is like a wolf. When it is domesticated by humans, it is no longer a wolf, but a dog.
After walking for more than a hundred miles, Lin Mu was suddenly stunned.
In front, he actually saw a Taoist temple.
Buddhist caves are often called Buddhist kingdoms. It is quite strange that a Taoist temple appears in a Buddhist kingdom.
The Taoist temple was nameless, simple and desolate. A vast and epic atmosphere came out from inside, making Lin Mu suffocated.
At the entrance of the Taoist temple, there stands a stone tablet with the word "Tao" engraved on it like a dragon and a snake.
As soon as his eyes touched the word "Tao", Lin Mu felt like the world was spinning.
In a daze, he seemed to see the vague old man in Taoist robes, using his fingers as a pen to carve the word "Tao" on the stone tablet with his big hand.
As the word "Tao" appeared, the sky and the earth lost color, and the sun and moon trembled.
In the turbulence of the wind and clouds, the word "" turned into people, and the word "辶" turned into people. People rode divine dragons and soared into the sky, making all living beings crawl and all things tremble.
Lin Mu read from the vast artistic conception that the person represented by the character "" does not refer to a human being, but rather uses human beings to replace wisdom and consciousness, while the dragon replaces the body.
After all, humans are known as the primates of all living things and are good at wisdom, while dragons are naturally powerful and superior to all living beings.
Controlling the body and walking with consciousness is the true meaning of Tao, the source of all things and the foundation of all dharma.
Lin Mu took a deep breath. No wonder this Taoist temple could be built in a Buddhist house. It is indeed extraordinary.
Just one word shows the depth of the realm of the master of Taoism.
This also made Lin Mu's eyes shine brighter. What magical things could be found in this Taoist temple?
Walking to the door, Lin Mu reached out and pushed open the wooden door of the Taoist temple.
With a "squeak" sound, countless fragments of wood fell from the door. The wooden door was also swaying and seemed to collapse at any time.
Regarding this situation, Lin Mu could only use one sentence to describe it as too dilapidated.
Obviously, this door is just an ordinary wooden door, so it cannot withstand the erosion of time and becomes rotten and broken.
This made him worried. This Taoist temple was not even willing to spend money to get a door. Is there really any valuable treasure inside?
However, this worry disappeared as soon as he stepped into the temple.
As an alchemist, his sense of smell for medicinal materials is extremely keen.
As soon as he entered the Taoist temple, he was greeted by the fragrance of herbs.
Sure enough, he quickly turned around and saw a medicine garden to the west of the Taoist temple, where various rare medicinal herbs were grown, and they all lasted for a very long time.
Most of them are thousands of years old, and even a few plants in the center are ten thousand years old.
Without any hesitation, Lin Mu had only one decision to make regarding these coveted herbs, and that was to collect them all.
Thousands of years of medicinal herbs, harvested.
Thousand-year-old medicinal herbs, harvest.
The medicinal soil that has been deposited for tens of thousands of years is harvested.
Collect! Collect! Collect
During this continuous collection, Lin Mu felt unprecedentedly refreshed.
Gradually, there were fewer and fewer herbs outside, and even the soil bags were almost disappearing, while Lin Mu's space ring became fuller.
Half a quarter of an hour later, after collecting all the herbs and medicinal soil, Lin Mu still felt that it was not enough.
His eyes glanced at the floor: "Huh? It's actually paved with top-quality jade. There's nothing to say. Just accept it."
On the table next to the statue, there is also an ancient Taoist robe and fly whisk hanging. Although it has no power, it has an ancient smell and special material, so they are also put away.
Immediately, he looked at the statue enshrined in the center of the Taoist temple.
"Tsk, tsk, these statues are actually made of meteorite iron. It's such a waste. It's better for me to use them."
Lin Mu shook his head and criticized the luxury of the Taoist temple. Without saying a word, he also took away all the statues placed there.
Looking at the empty Taoist temple, Lin Mu still felt as if he had overlooked something.
After a while, he patted his head: "By the way, this Taoist temple has not been able to stand for so many years. It is a treasure in itself, so we might as well collect it together."
Lin Mu's eyes flashed slightly, and he immediately wanted to put the entire Taoist temple into the space ring.
His own space ring is not big enough, but the space ring given to him by Hengyuan Tower is three hundred cubic meters, which is completely enough.
"what happened?"
But soon, Lin Mu was stunned. The Taoist temple was still standing, and his collection failed.
"Is there anything unique about this Taoist temple that I have overlooked?"
Lin Mu didn't hesitate and opened his heavenly eye directly, covering the entire Taoist temple.
After a while, he discovered that there was a lotus pond to the east of the Taoist temple. There was a lotus seed lying at the bottom of the pond, but his heavenly eyes could not see through the lotus seed.
Immediately, he walked quickly towards the lotus pond, trying to sense the lotus seed with the power of his soul.
The result was even more surprising: in his soul's perception, the lotus seed did not actually exist.
Although his eyes could see it, his soul couldn't sense it. Lin Mu felt more and more that this lotus seed was extraordinary.
Then, he tried to use the space ring to collect the lotus seed, but it failed.
Moreover, although the lotus seed is large in size, it is as heavy as a mountain. Even with his strength, he cannot move it at all.
"It seems that the root cause lies in this lotus seed."
Lin Mu's eyes flashed, "If you want to collect it now, the only way is to refine it."
If it were anyone else, since the soul cannot sense this lotus seed, it is naturally impossible to refine it.
But Lin Mu did not give up. He was confident that with his heavenly eyes, he would be able to find the flaws in this refining.
The heavenly eye stared at the lotus seed, and Lin Mu soon saw that there was a layer of void around the lotus seed. It was this film of void that blocked his soul.
What made Lin Mu shocked and helpless was that this membrane of void was actually perfect, with no gaps at all.
"How is it possible? How can there be anything perfect in this world?"
Lin Mu was stunned.
This was the first time he encountered this situation. Before this, he never imagined that there would be things in the world that the naked eye could not see through.
And if there were no flaws, how could he refine the lotus seeds?
Buzz!
However, just when Lin Mu was helpless, deep in the sea of his consciousness, a dragon-shaped flying knife as thin as a cicada's wings suddenly trembled.
Just with this tremor, an indescribable force was released immediately.
