Chapter 801: The Origin of the Bodhi Patriarch
Patriarch Bodhi looked at Lin Feng quietly, waiting for his answer.
However, Lin Feng's expression was still confused, because he still couldn't understand why the other party valued him so much.
Could it be because of his status as an "outsider"?
Or is it because of ...... Space-time Divine Jade?
Thinking of this, Lin Feng seemed to have grasped something, but it was not very clear.
Feeling the eager gaze of the powerful man in front of him, he only felt a lot of pressure on his shoulders.
After weighing it for a long time, he finally gritted his teeth, bowed to the ground and said, "Disciple Lin Feng, meet Master!" ”
This worship suddenly made the smile on Patriarch Bodhi's face completely bloom, and he said with great joy: "Good apprentice, get up quickly!" ”
As he spoke, he released an invisible mana that lifted Lin Feng up from the ground.
In his words and deeds, his love and importance for Lin Feng were undoubtedly revealed.
But Lin Feng was not overjoyed, but said sincerely: "Since the disciple has entered the sect of the master today, there is naturally no reason to betray in the future. ”
He has never been an indecisive person, and since he has decided what to do, he will definitely do it to the end, so he immediately made a great vow to win the complete trust of the Bodhi Patriarch.
What's more, as soon as his oath comes out, the words of the previous Bodhi Patriarch will also be immediately established and recorded by the Great Dao, which is an extremely fair thing.
In fact, in Lin Feng's opinion, Patriarch Bodhi's cultivation has reached the heavens and the earth, and he can even interfere with the operation of the will of the Heavenly Dao, so he is definitely qualified to be his master.
But if that's all there is to it, it's far from making him so simply apprentice.
What's more, in order to be able to apprentice himself, the other party actually took the lead in making a great avenue oath, which contained a touch of sincerity and value, but it really moved Lin Feng.
Such a strong person can kill himself with a wave of his hand, and he can use all kinds of means to force himself to submit, but he doesn't, but he is so kind to himself, no matter what the reason, it can be said to be extremely rare.
What's more, after all, people have secretly helped him several times, and he can't deny this love anyway-if he really wants to repay this great favor, with the current Lin Feng, where can he afford to repay it?
"Feng'er, since you have entered the sect of the teacher, there are some things that can be told to you as they are."
After letting Lin Feng sit down in front of him again, Patriarch Bodhi stroked his long white beard, and the joy on his face gradually receded, and a deep color of remembrance appeared.
Lin Feng was not a stupid person, as soon as he heard this, he immediately understood that the other party was going to tell in detail about some things that he hadn't explained in detail just now - for example, why did the other party value himself so much.
"All of this has to start with the birth of the teacher, which was an old thing hundreds of billions of years ago......
The voice of the Bodhi Patriarch suddenly became a little ethereal, as if his thoughts had been immersed in the era of the beginning of the famine.
And with the narration of Patriarch Bodhi, the expression on Lin Feng's face became more and more colorful.
He never imagined that the origin of the Bodhi Patriarch in this time and space would be like this.
It is said that before Pangu opened the world, the world was originally chaotic, but in this chaos, it was not completely devoid of any Holy Spirit.
The three thousand chaos demon gods are the creatures born in this chaos.
And among the three thousand Chaos Demon Gods, the most powerful existence is known to be Pangu. And under Pangu, it will be counted.
Hongjun was originally in the top five among the three thousand demon gods before he opened the world, but because he was in charge of the immortal path in the three thousand avenues, and later the immortal path of the flood wilderness flourished, so his strength rose to the top, as if he was the first person in the flood wilderness after the fall of Pangu.
Hongjun saw that Pangu failed to preach with his strength, and with the experience of the previous car, he found another way and created the method of "beheading three corpses" to become holy.
In the end, with great perseverance, great wisdom, and great luck, he really beheaded the three corpses of "good", "evil", and "self", and became the first saint in the world.
However, as his cultivation deepened, Hongjun found that he had actually touched the ceiling of this desolate world, and no matter how he cultivated, it was difficult to make any further progress.
In the end, he is worthy of being a world-famous immortal with great perseverance, great wisdom, and great luck, and he actually made him realize a further way, that is, to join the way!
The so-called harmony is to use oneself to merge with the way of heaven, so as to reach the realm above the saints.
However, although Hedao can solve the cultivation bottleneck encountered by Hongjun, it is not without drawbacks. That is, once the Tao is united, Hongjun must give up a certain independent personality and be replaced by the will of the Heavenly Dao.
Of course, the Heavenly Dao will not control Hongjun's will all the time, and will only replace Hongjun's self-consciousness at important moments and when it needs to be manifested.
In normal times, Hongjun still has self-awareness.
This is the so-called "Heavenly Dao is Hongjun, but Hongjun is not Heavenly Dao." ”
In fact, Hongjun was not determined to do so at first, but as he became more aware of the general trend of the world, and knew that more saints would appear in the heavens and the earth, and his unique supremacy would be threatened—in the end, he couldn't help it.
He decided to fit in.
In the end, Hedao did succeed, but there was a big change in the process.
When Hongjun first became holy, he cut off the three corpses of "good", "evil", and "self", which was originally a mysterious method to help him preach, but when he joined the Tao, it became his biggest constraint.
There is nothing wrong with the two corpses of "good" and "evil".
Because the former Lord is merciful, and after the merger, the operation of the Heavenly Dao can be more stable and beneficial to sentient beings, so I agree with this very much; The latter is the main killing, and after merging, he can gain more powerful power, so he is also in favor.
However, the "self" corpse is different.
Once the path is united, the "self" will be wiped out to a large extent, and how can he tolerate this?
So, the "self" corpse has mutinied.
At the critical moment of Merge, he broke free from the shackles, and completely cut off the connection with Hongjun's ontology, turning into a new existence!
And this existence, although it has the strength of a saint who is not weaker than ordinary saints who have achieved sanctification, is incomplete after all.
Therefore, he took great pains and spent millions of years to obtain a Bodhi tree root from the unholy Quasi-Ti Daoist, and obtained a drop of Pangu essence blood from the Styx Ancestor.
In the end, he used these two things as raw materials, and many spiritual objects fused together to create a new body, and at the same time, the soul was re-nourished, and finally a new self was born.
Eventually, he took the name of the Bodhi root that reshaped his body—
Self-named, Bodhi.
He is known as the Bodhi Patriarch.
