There was a gaze on him, obviously paying attention to his steady progress, Lin Tian didn't care about it, he deliberately slowed down, every step seemed to be difficult, every step would stay for a while, but the frequency was well controlled, and when the first person reached the ninety-eighth step, he also came to the ninety-seventh step.

surpassed those elite disciples cultivated by the branch forces of the Western Heavenly Buddha Temple.

The first person was a young man, wearing monk's robes, looking ordinary, Lin Tian only glanced at his back, the back of his head was extremely smooth and bright.

In the end, the monk stepped on the ninety-nine steps, and immediately there was a Buddha light to envelop him, but this was not the holy child Buddha light, it was just the Buddha light projected in the West Heaven Buddha Hall, he had to persist in it for a long time, if he persevered until the end, he could become a holy child.

After him, Lin Tian then became the second person to climb the ninety-nine steps, and there was also a beam of Buddha light falling, enveloping him, and the picture in front of him was also all over again, as if he was in the holy land of Buddhism, full of golden lotus.

After that, there were also people who climbed the ninety-nine steps, but this was no longer something that Lin Tian should worry about, a Buddha appeared in front of him, a smiling Buddha.

The smiling Buddha sits on a huge golden lotus, around the golden lotus, the void golden lotus blooms, beautiful, dreamy and illusory, there is no Buddha sound, there is no chanting, it is very quiet, like a unique space, very wonderful.

The eyes of the smiling Buddha are closed, not deliberately closed, but naturally without eyes under the smile, giving people an extremely festive feeling, very peaceful, so that Lin Tian is also extremely peaceful here.

"You, why don't you worship the Buddha?"

A voice came from the mouth of the smiling Buddha, and when he spoke, his tongue fought with spring thunder, but it was not shocking, and his eyes also opened a slit, still peaceful and festive, but this question, with a force of oppression, made Lin Tian's heart feel cold.

He was not slow to react, and said slowly: "The Buddha is in the heart, not in front of you, the Buddha in front of you is not the Buddha in your heart, and the Buddha in your heart is not the Buddha in front of you, why do you want to worship?"

"Don't worship, why did you come to worship the Ten Thousand Buddhas?"

The smiling Buddha asked again.

Lin Tian was neither humble nor arrogant: "Ten thousand Buddhas worship not necessarily to worship, but also to confirm whether the Buddha in his heart is the Buddha in front of him." ”

"Then what kind of Buddha is the Buddha in your heart?"

The voice of the smiling Buddha continued to sound.

"It is the Buddha of all sentient beings, the Buddha of self-sacrifice, the Buddha of great compassion, the immeasurable Buddha of Buddhism, and the Buddha of the world. Lin Tian opened his mouth and said several kinds in a row.

The smiling Buddha looked at Lin Tian and said, "Why do you decide that the Buddha in front of you is not the Buddha in your heart?"

"Intuition. ”

Lin Tian opened his mouth and came out.

"Interesting. ”

The smiling Buddha suddenly smiled more festively, his eyes disappeared again, and on his fat face, it was not easy to see the facial features, and even the nose seemed to be only half.

"Ten thousand Buddhas worship is a grand event of Buddhism, if you don't admit that the Buddha in front of you is the Buddha in your heart, you can't get the Buddha's recognition, and you can't become a Buddhist saint, you, go back." ”

After the smiling Buddha finished speaking, he continued again, he waved his hand, his movements were calm, and then the figure gradually disappeared, accompanied by the golden lotus in this space, all of which were slowly blurring.

However, Lin Tian stood still and did not move, and said in a firm tone: "The Dharma is immeasurable, if you drive me away just because you don't admit it, you won't have the amount of the world, isn't this exactly the contradiction with the Buddha in my heart? ”

The smiling Buddha who was about to fade quickly solidified again, and this time he opened his eyes and looked at Lin Tian's gaze, also with a touch of undisguised appreciation.

"Firm and promising, and the understanding of Buddhism is quite deep, yes, the Buddha is in the heart, not in front of him, the heart is not sincere, then the Buddha is not visible, no matter how beautiful the mouth is, it is just a mouth, the so-called sincerity is the spirit, that is, you have the qualifications to become a Buddhist saint, this Buddha light, the poor monk will give you. ”

The smiling Buddha said, snapping his fingers, and a golden lotus quickly swept in front of Lin Tian under the golden light of the Buddha Gate, and then merged into his body and disappeared.

After doing all this, the smiling Buddha disappeared with a smile, and the surrounding golden lotus also disappeared, and this space became more and more calm, but it did not dissipate.

Lin Tian clasped his hands together in thanks, and just as he was puzzled, another golden Buddha appeared, and this time it was another Buddha who appeared.

At the same time, on the ninety-nine steps outside this strange space, there were more people who climbed up, most of them were the core disciples of the major branches of the West Heavenly Buddha Temple, and the people who came up from the thirty-three steps were very rare, and most of them were still trapped on the steps, unable to enter.

There are also senior monks in the West Heaven Buddhist Temple who are paying attention to those people on the ninety-nine steps, and there are several venerable-level senior monks, all of whom are looking at Lin Tian, and the object of their discussion at this time is Lin Tian.

"Where did this son come from? He has been bathing in the light of the Buddha for a long time, and he has never seen any discomfort, is it really related to my Buddhism? Close to the Dharma?"

A Venerable Buddhist monk spoke, looking confused and very interested.

Another Venerable monk shook his head and said: "I don't know, let's take a look first, this time, there are a few good seedlings, it is worth focusing on cultivating, as for the belonging of the holy child, we have the Buddha's relics to decide, we don't have to worry about it." ”

"That being said, I still want to predict a thing or two. ”

Several people chatted, but the people on the ninety-nine steps were constantly being tested in the Buddha's light, and the more they passed, the more golden light they obtained, and the more the Buddha's light enveloped them, the richer and brighter it became.

It was like the Buddha light that enveloped Lin Tian at this time, it was the brightest one above the ninety-nine layers, like a golden beam, soaring into the sky, illuminating half of the sky.

No one knows how many tests he has passed in the Buddha's light, starting from the first smiling Buddha, to the many Buddhas who appeared later, he has passed the test one by one, with his understanding of the Dharma, not even under some venerable monks of the West Heaven Buddha Temple, and even surpassed!

And the time after the opening of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Pilgrimage is also unconscious, ten days have passed.

Ten days, for these people, but in the snap of a finger, the people immersed in the steps, don't know what the outside world is like, they don't know what happened and the passage of time, the people outside the steps are also patiently waiting for the last moment to appear, but because the Buddha light that envelops Lin Tian is too eye-catching, it attracts more and more attention.

Even the abbot Xuan Yan was looking at this beam of light in the hall, and his mind was active.
