Before leaving, Zhang Chao and everyone left a trace of Yuan Li imprint.

With this imprint, they could sense each other's signs of life, although they were too far away to know, but if they were within a heavenly domain, there should be no inaccuracy.

As long as he knew that they were still safe and sound, Zhang Chao was no longer anxious.

What the hell does the Emperor want to arrest himself?

What kind of treasures are hidden in this Burning Buddha City that the Emperor of Heaven can't wait to get?

Zhang Chao pondered.

This matter has to be clarified to be reassuring.

Anyway, he has now entered this Burning Lamp Buddha City, and if there is anything left by the Burning Lamp Ancient Buddha, it should not be his Heavenly Emperor's.

Although he did not obtain the power of burning the lamp, he inherited the mantle of the lamp in disguise and carried the wisdom of the lamp.

The fearless spirit of the ancient Buddha of the burning lamp made Zhang Chao extremely admired, the more so, the more he could not integrate into the Buddhist heritage left by the burning lamp, and fell into the hands of the emperor and other mad people!

But after asking around, Zhang Chao realized that it was useless to know about the Emperor of Heaven by virtue of wandering around the city.

In the city of Burning Lamp, the blockade of news is very strict, and ordinary people have no interest in the situation of the ruling class at all.

And some ordinary monks don't listen to things outside the window, and only read Buddhist scriptures.

If you want to find out more useful information, you can only find a way to reach the upper level of this city!

In other words, at least you have to be very close to the Emperor of Heaven to know the Emperor's plans!

This is very dangerous for Zhang Chao.

After all, the Emperor of Heaven is different from others.

This person has a gloomy personality, is resourceful, calm and calm, and has a ruthless heart.

Moreover, he has crossed paths with Zhang Chao many times, and he knows Zhang Chao very well.

Even if Zhang Chao was now using the prosthesis of the Vientiane Holy Bone to walk, he did not dare to ensure that his true identity would not be discovered by the Heavenly Emperor.

However, taking risks is like a common thing for Zhang Chao, and this time it is the same, he didn't hesitate at all, and began to think about how to blend into the high-level of this Burning Buddha City.

But figuring out how ordinary monks can grow their status, the result made Zhang Chao a little depressed.

It's been too long......

First of all, there are two types of monks.

One is a regular monk who studies Buddhism, and the other is a warrior monk who is responsible for guarding Buddhism.

As for the warrior monk, Zhang Chao didn't think about it, after all, it needs to be cultivated from a young age, and it takes many years of training to become a warrior monk, if he goes in this situation, it is easy to be suspicious.

It's better to be a monk on the right track, in that case...... As long as you have achievements in the Dharma, you will be able to climb up faster.

And Zhang Chao's attainments in Buddhism can be said that there are few people in the world who can match him.

After all, the wisdom of the ancient Buddha and the comprehension of the Dharma are rare in the world and will never be exaggerated!

The hierarchy of monks is also very clear.

What Zhang Chao had learned in Elysium before was only those high-level systems.

In fact, since I first stepped into Buddhism, I have already entered this huge Buddhist system.

After being ordained and becoming a disciple of Buddhism, they are called novices, and often novices are monks over the age of seven and under the age of twenty.

In order to become a novice, one must first take the Ten Precepts, which are the so-called: not to kill, not to steal, not to be evil, not to lie, not to drink alcohol, not to decorate, not to sing, dance, not to observe, not to sit on a high bed, not to eat out of time, and not to store gold and silver treasures.

Further up, when he has a certain degree of attainment in Buddhism and officially becomes a monk, he is called a monk.

Among the entire Buddhist sect, the proportion of bhikshus is the largest, and it is also the group that forms the solid foundation of the entire Buddhist sect.

For example, the monk that Zhang Chao has evolved into now belongs to the monks.

After the bhikshus, there are the messengers, and then the arhats, the sages, the bodhisattvas, and the Buddhas.

To become an emissary from a bhikshu is the most difficult first level in Buddhism.

First of all, the bhikshu must have qualifications, and he must be extremely proficient in the comprehension of the Dharma, be able to pass various examinations of the Buddha, and also have a certain level of cultivation.

The Yuan Dan realm is the threshold realm of becoming a messenger.

Although the monks as a whole have no requirements for combat power, the level of the realm is also related to the degree of comprehension of the Dharma.

Unlike those warrior monks, as long as they obey the precepts and understand the basic Dharma, the most important thing is the ability to do actual combat.

After Zhang Chao figured out these circumstances, he did not hesitate and walked directly towards a Buddhist hall in the Burning Buddha City.

In the Buddha hall, the incense is around, in the hall of the Mahavira Treasure, in the middle is the current Buddha Shakya, flanked by the thin Buddha of the past and the future Buddha Maitreya with a wide heart and a fat body.

There are two Buddha statues, which are divided into the four protectors and the eight vajra.

The so-called four protectors can also be called the top combat power of Buddhism, and the eight great vajra are the posture of the eight strongest bodhisattvas when they enter the battle posture, which is called the 'Ming King Body'.

Looking at these statues, Zhang Chao sighed secretly.

I don't know that these top masters of Buddhism are still a few people left in the world.

Maybe...... In the disaster of the destruction of Buddhism that year, all of them have passed away.

In front of these Buddha statues, an old monk in a red robe sits cross-legged on a futon, his hands folded, and his mouth reciting words.

According to the rules of Buddhism, Zhang Chao knelt on his knees and recited the Buddha's verses.

He didn't feel that he had anything to lose by kneeling down like this, after all, there was a statue of the ancient Buddha who lit the lamp here, and he knelt down to light the lamp, and he didn't lose anything at all!

And you have to act enough!

"Anitabha, Your Highness Bhikkhu, what is the matter here?" the old monk asked slowly without raising his eyes or opening his eyes.

"The disciple is here to recruit the envoy!" Zhang Chao said clearly.

"Oh, messenger?" the old monk opened his eyes and looked Zhang Chao up and down for a moment.

The entire Burning Buddha City is huge, and the number of monks is about the same, not to mention millions, even if it is a powerful master, it is impossible to know everyone.

So the old monk looked at Zhang Chao and felt angry, and he didn't feel strange.

It's just that Zhang Chao's age looks ...... It's a little frivolous.

"It's not that easy to be a messenger, bhikkhu, what is your Dharma name?"

"Back to the abbot, disciple Fang Chen!" Zhang Chao looked respectful.

He didn't bother to make up the Dharma name or something, and it would be bad if it was unreliable, so he directly borrowed the abbot Dharma name that he first encountered in the Pure Land of Bliss.

"Fang Chen, the old man asks you, what is Buddhism...... What is a Buddha and what is the Dharma...... The cause of the law and the Buddha, the cause and effect of the Buddha and the law, ......" The old monk nodded, and then opened his mouth directly.

"Back to the abbot, what do the disciples think ......" Zhang Chao did not hesitate to answer these questions one by one.

After all, with the wisdom of the ancient Buddha who burns the lamp, if he can't even explain these superficial truths, won't he make people laugh off his big teeth?

One after another, Zhang Chao answered no less than 100 questions from the old monk, from early morning to ten o'clock in the evening.

The Buddha lamp in the Daxiong Treasure Hall is lit, and the light of the fire lingers.

"Very good, at such an age, there are such insights and understandings, which really makes the old man admire, there are many questions, although the old man has an explanation, which can be compared with you, but he is also clumsy, good, good!" The old man looked admiring, and actually got up and bowed to Zhang Chaoshen.

"The abbot has killed the little monk!" Zhang Chao hurriedly returned the salute: "I don't know if the little monk can become a messenger?"

"Then it depends on how your cultivation is!" the old monk asked again.

"Cultivation?" Zhang Chao's heart moved, and he directly raised his cultivation to the realm of Yuanying.

"This ...... What a miracle, at such an age......" The old monk's eyes widened and he exclaimed in disbelief.

"Oh no, is it a bit too much?" Zhang Chao's heart moved, he didn't want to make himself the focus, in that case, I was afraid that he would soon be exposed.

"The sea of Buddha is boundless, your future is immeasurable!" the old monk said, took out a wooden card, and then held a pen on the side, brushed on the wooden card and wrote down Zhang Chao's law number, and then handed it over: "Hold this card, go to the Central Council Zhaige Hall, in exchange for a robe, a wooden fish, a string of Buddha beads, from now on, you are the messenger!"

"This is the messenger, is it so simple?" Zhang Chao breathed a sigh of relief, but he was also secretly glad.

Isn't his so-called simplicity still based on the wisdom of the ancient Buddha?

The entire Buddha City was created by the Ancient Buddha of the Burning Lamp, that is to say, you can eat all the way by using the understanding and attainments of the Ancient Buddha of the Burning Lamp here!

......

The Central Council is the core area of the Burning Buddha City.

Ordinary people are not allowed to go here, and it is completely controlled by Buddhism, and it is only during the annual pilgrimage that the people come here to worship.

After entering the Central Council, Zhang Chao noticed that the number of warrior monks had risen sharply.

But the cultivation of these warrior monks is also average, and they can't enter Zhang Chao's eyes, and the real masters should still be in the deeper part of this city.

According to what the old monk said, Zhang Chao came all the way to the Zhaige Hall of the Central Academy, unimpeded.

Ordinary bhikshus have two choices when they become emissaries.

Either he went to the temples in the city and served as abbots, preaching the Dharma and teaching newcomers, or he stayed in the central courtyard and continued to study the Buddhist scriptures, which was equivalent to further his studies.

Zhang Chaonaturally chose the latter without hesitation.

Immediately afterwards, he was led by a monk to the meditation room to which he had been assigned.

The furnishings in the meditation room are very simple, and can even be described as bitter.

A broken table, a wooden chair, an oil lamp, a futon, that's all.

It is said that once you enter the Buddhist gate, everything is empty, and the ancient Buddha of the green lantern has lived this life, which is really not false at all.

Those who have truly escaped into the void have become extremely simple in their pursuit in this life, that is, to study as much as possible in their lifetime to achieve enlightenment, so that they can be one step closer to the 'Buddha'.

As for cultivation and the like, it's all incidental.

They have lost their seven emotions and six desires, their hearts are like water, and they have no desires.

Is this good or bad, Zhang Chao didn't dare to make a judgment, nor did he dare to comment more, after all, everyone's thoughts are different.

However, if all this is completely controlled by the Emperor of Heaven, I really don't know what the Buddha Gate will become in the end.

But now that Zhang Chao has become an envoy, what is next...... is about to become an Arhat, approaching the Emperor step by step......
