Chapter 855: The Great Buddha and the Great Demon
"Hmm!"
I don't know how long it took, Lu Yangming and the three of them finally woke up, and they opened their eyes a little confused, and then their expressions changed greatly, and their eyes were full of horror.
I don't know when, the heaven and the earth changed, no longer the blood-red sky, the scarlet earth, or even the broken and destroyed world, the scene that came into sight was a peaceful and indisputable pure land.
"Where is this?"
"How could we ......"
"Senior brother, junior brother, what do you think it is?"
The three of them looked at this peaceful pure land in a bit dazed, trying to find the Heavenly Demon Djinn who had brought them a great crisis before, but they didn't see any trace of the djinn, but saw an unexpected scene.
In the distance, between a golden rain, a Bodhi tree rises to the sky, the lush branches and leaves are holding the ten directions, the red dust of the ten worlds can be seen in the ordinary, the indescribable Buddha rhyme is circulating in the void, and the sacred and solemn Sanskrit chanting continues, washing the soul, purifying the sorrows, great freedom, and great detachment.
Even the three of Lu Yangming, who had already cultivated the Mixed Yuan Dao Fruit, had already developed a sense of emptiness under this Bodhi Sanskrit sound, and the shackles of the realm that had trapped them for many years were even more faintly loosened.
"It's ......"
"Bodhi Tree, Great Avenue Bodhi Tree!"
Before Lu Yangming finished speaking, he heard Xie Qianjun exclaim, stepped forward, stared at the Bodhi tree that supported the world of the ten directions, and said with shocked eyes: " Legend has it that Amitabha, the ancestor of Buddhism, sat under a Bodhi tree on the first day of the opening of ancient times, enlightened for seven days and seven nights, and finally at the dawn of the seventh day, cut off the heavenly demons of all worlds, attained the fruit of the Tao of Silence, and achieved the supreme body.
After the muttering words fell, Xie Qianjun turned around and looked at Lu Yangming and the Confucian Emperor, and said with surprise on his face: "Senior brother, this is the Great Dao Bodhi Tree, the former enlightened treasure of the ancestors of Buddhism!"
"Hmm!"
Hearing this, Lu Yangming frowned, he had naturally heard of this legend, not only had he heard it but even studied it, but it was precisely because of this that he had always maintained a skeptical attitude towards the existence of this Great Dao Bodhi Tree.
The Buddha sat under the Bodhi tree, the wisdom sword slashed the demons, extinguished Nirvana, and finally became the supreme Buddha fruit, the creation of Bodhi, the flowers bloomed thousands, a flower and a world, a leaf and a Bodhi, containing all living beings, the red dust of all worlds, the great wisdom of the fruit, the fruit of the avenue, you can transcend the mundane, and you can be at ease.
To put it simply, the function of this avenue Bodhi tree is to help people realize the Tao, a Bodhi contains thousands of truths, enough to break through the bottleneck of the realm, if you can get the whole Bodhi tree, then before the promotion to the supreme, there is no bottleneck shackles, it is the treasure that countless practitioners dream of.
It's just that legends are just legends after all, whether this avenue Bodhi tree exists, and whether it is as magical as the legend, no one knows, and even the people of Buddhism can't tell.
Now, this legendary treasure of enlightenment appeared in front of him, but Lu Yangming did not have the slightest surprise, but gave birth to endless questions.
Where is this, why is there a Great Dao Bodhi Tree, how did they arrive, and is everything in front of them true or false?
There were many questions, and they were heavily pressed in his heart, but Lu Yangming didn't open his mouth, but said in a low voice: "All this came too suddenly, there is a strange feeling up and down, you must be careful, don't relax!"
"Senior brother is right!"
Hearing this, the Confucian Imperial Monarch also nodded, and said with palpitations: "Just now that Heavenly Demon Giant Spirit, I don't know where I went, we came here inexplicably, we should be careful." ”
"Hmm!"
The words of the two made Xie Qianjun's brows sink, and he finally recovered from the surprise of seeing the Great Dao Bodhi Tree, and said softly: "If you and I can unconsciously transfer the three of you and me to this place, there must be great magical powers, maybe it is the Lord of this Great Dao Bodhi." ”
Hearing this, the Confucian Emperor groaned and said, "Could it be that some great power of the Buddhist Sect cultivated in this flood and desolation realm, and saw that we were in danger, so he helped us stay here?"
"The power of Buddhism?"
Lu Yangming frowned, and muttered: "The Buddha Gate should be robbed, and the Buddha country is self-proclaimed, how can there be great power outside?"
"Not necessarily!"
Xie Qianjun shook his head and said: "After ancient times, most of the people of Buddhism, although most of them have lived in the Sumeru Buddha Country for a long time, and few have entered the world to walk, but not all Buddhist cultivation is in the Sumeru Buddha Country, so it is not impossible to have a Buddhist great power to cultivate in this flood and desolation realm. ”
Hearing this, Lu Yangming thought for a while, and then said: "If that's the case, then let's go and visit this senior, and ask about the cause and effect by the way." ”
"As it should be!"
Xie Qianjun nodded, turned to look at the Bodhi tree, and a trace of heat flashed in his eyes that even he hadn't noticed.
"Let's go, then!"
In this proposal, the Confucian monarch also agreed, the three religions are all the great religions of the human race, not to mention the blood connection, like a family, but also the same breath, deep friendship, if there is really a Buddhist master to cultivate here, as Confucian people, how should they all go to visit one or two.
"Hmm!"
Lu Yangming nodded, and the three of them started side by side, walking towards Bodhi, who was bathed in the golden rain, to show respect.
Although it is a walk, but with the cultivation of three people, the end of the world is a trivial matter, not to mention the small technique of shrinking the ground into inches, a few steps away, it is already close to the Bodhi tree.
The closer they got, the clearer the scene in the golden rain became, under the Bodhi tree with low branches and leaves, the three of them faintly saw a Buddha shadow, sitting between the golden lotus platform, chanting Sanskrit music in the air, and chanting Zen singing.
"There really is a great Buddhist here!"
Seeing this scene, Xie Qianjun's heart was shocked, and his pace sped up a few points, and he rushed straight to the Bodhi tree, which made Lu Yangming, who was one step behind, frown slightly, but he didn't say anything, just followed his footsteps.
The three of them quickened their pace, but in a moment, they stepped into the area shrouded in golden rain, and they also saw the appearance of the big Buddha under the Bodhi tree.
"That's ......"
"How is that possible!"
"If you come to the world!"
The moment they saw the face of the big Buddha, the three of them stopped their steps together, their faces were stunned, and their eyes were full of shock.
As the most holy of Confucianism, Lu Yangming and the three of them have all gone to the country of Sumeru Buddhism to visit Buddhism on behalf of Confucianism and promote the exchange between Buddhism and Confucianism.
Therefore, the three of them have all seen the world-honored Buddha who carried forward the Buddha's door, and now the big Buddha sitting under the Bodhi tree is none other than the master of the Buddha's door in the memory of the three of them, the chief disciple of Amitabha Buddha - the World-Honored Buddha.
This is also the reason why the three of them are so shocked, the same human race, the changes that have happened in Buddhism, so it is impossible not to know, this Buddha World-Honored One, as well as the Manjushri Bodhisattva, the King of Fudo Ming, and even many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas up and down the Buddhism, Vajra Arhats, should have been robbed, why did they appear here?
Is all this an illusion?
"Buddha Sect World-Honored One!"
"How could it be ......?"
When the thoughts of the three of them were chaotic, they suddenly heard several exclamations on the side, and following the reputation, several people who were also full of astonishment appeared in Lu Yangming's sight.
"Huh?"
"Demon Saint Liu Zu!"
"The Shark Emperor of the Endless Sea?"
"How did they get here?"
Seeing a few people, Lu Yangming's face was even more stunned, because these people were none other than the powerhouses of all parties who had entered this desolate realm together.
The Tiangang Star Array arranged in the Wa Divine Temple is to use the Tiangang Star Power to penetrate the destruction and tribulation power, and forcibly open up a passage to the Flood and Desolation Tribulation Realm, so it is not stable, and it will be affected by the turbulence of time and space when shuttling, so that the teleportation direction is all random, and the reason why Lu Yangming and the three of them can come together is because they brought a Confucian ruler, which can eliminate the influence of time and space turbulence.
So what happened to these people, did they teleport to this neighborhood, or did they just come here for some reason?
While Lu Yangming was surprised in his heart, those people also saw them, and their expressions became strange at the same time, and they looked at each other for a while, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
Obviously, no one expected that after entering the Flood Tribulation Realm, they would meet so quickly, and they would still be under this Bodhi tree.
Although they were surprised in their hearts, it was obviously not the time to dwell on these at this moment, everyone looked at the Bodhi tree together, and saw that the Buddha was still sitting on the golden lotus platform, chanting the mantra of the past life in his mouth, and his face was full of compassion, which made people's hearts inexplicably touched.
"Is this really the Afterworld?"
"Looking at this breath, it should be good, but why did the Buddha World Venerable appear here, could it be that he was attracted by him?"
"Hmph, what do you want to do, come forward and ask clearly, if it's true, then there's nothing to say, if it's false, why are we afraid of joining forces?"
"Okay, then you go first!"
“......”
The people present are all calculating characters, it is impossible for them to act recklessly, seeing that you do not move, I am also not moving, for a while, under this Bodhi tree, except for the Sanskrit chanting, there is no other sound.
Until a moment later, the Sanskrit sound gradually subsided, and the Buddha on the golden lotus platform looked at everyone with compassion in his eyes, and said, "When you come here, you are destined to be with me, and I will send you to wait for a great creation?"
"Great Creation?"
"What does the World-Honored One mean?"
Hearing this, everyone did not feel the slightest surprise in their hearts, but instead gave birth to an extremely uneasy feeling, and involuntarily took a few steps back.
Seeing this, the Buddha on the lotus platform smiled lightly and said: "The sea of suffering is endless, turn back to the shore, put down the butcher's knife, and become a demon on the ground!"
The moment the Buddha's words fell, the heavens and the earth suddenly changed, the pure land instantly became a demon domain, and the golden lotus platform turned into a black lotus with a demonic heart, only the Buddha on the stage was still, smiling with flowers and compassion in his eyes.
"You ......"
"Not good!"
"Hurry back!"
Seeing such a scene, everyone was horrified, and they wanted to retreat without thinking about it, but then they were shocked to find that they couldn't move.
Yes, everyone, no matter how high or low their cultivation is, how strong or weak they are, are imprisoned in place at the moment, unable to move at all, and can only watch as one after another demonic qi rushes in, eroding into their bodies.
Lu Yangming and the three of them were also unable to move at this moment, until the demonic qi eroded into Xie Qianjun's body, and saw a thunderbolt blooming, and the Confucian ruler flew out on its own, and a figure with big sleeves fluttering appeared, until the black lotus, he said loudly: "World Venerable, it's been a long time!"
