Chapter 713: Taking Refuge in Buddhism
Xu Yang heard that the third Buddha wanted to suppress the Demon Monarch under the mountain for five hundred years, and it also depended on the other party's performance before considering whether he would release it, otherwise he would always press the Demon Monarch under the mountain.
Xu Yang was surprised and happy in his heart, happy that he had finally trapped the scourge of the Demon Lord, and was so surprised that the other party had to be trapped for five hundred years before it was possible to regain his freedom. Moreover, this 500 years is still in the spiritual realm, not the 500 years in the lower realm.
Xu Yang had already known the time of the spirit world from Xiao He's mouth, and confirmed from Jian Chan's mouth that the spirit world was very different from the time of the nether world. Time passes very slowly in the spirit world, and it is not an exaggeration to say that life is like years.
And when the third Buddha and the demon lord fought, the sect leader next to him knelt there from beginning to end, looking like he was devout about taking refuge in Buddhism.
Xu Yang saw Sect Leader He kneeling there unmoved, and thought that he still had a lot of grievances with the other party that had not been settled, and although he had the opportunity to kill the other party now, after thinking of He Fangxue, he dispelled the idea of plotting against the other party.
The Third Buddha saw Sect Master He kneeling there reverently, shouted the Buddha's name, and said to Sect Master He: "Sect Master He, your Holy Lotus Sect has been doing evil in the Nether Realm for countless years, and has committed heinous crimes. He continued: "However, thinking that my Buddha has the virtue of a good life, and the ants are still alive, are you willing to change your mind now, abandon evil and promote good, and take refuge in my Buddhism to devote yourself to cultivation?"
Xu Yang was stunned when he heard that the third Buddha had asked Sect Master He to convert to Buddhism, knowing that with Sect Leader He's temperament and personality in the past, he would never join other sects. However, it is difficult to say what is happening now.
And just when Xu Yang was thinking nonsense in his heart, suddenly the voice of Sect Leader He came to his ears: "After the Buddha's enlightenment, the disciple suddenly understood the countless heinous crimes that the disciple had committed, as well as the irreparable trauma brought to the lower realm. The disciples are willing to take refuge in Buddhism with all their might, hoping to make up for the mistakes they have made. β
"Good. Today, you are truly aware of the mistakes you have made, and you will be able to realize your mistakes in time, and know where you should go, great goodness. Then from now on, you will stay in the 'Lingmi Mountain' and concentrate on cultivation. The Third Buddha said.
Sect Master He nodded yes and said, "After the disciple converts to Buddhism, he will no longer pay attention to any disputes in the lower realm, nor will he plot any country, and he will definitely practice wholeheartedly." β
Xu Yang was shocked when he heard that Sect Leader He had agreed to take refuge in Buddhism, feeling that Sect Leader He's sudden change made him a little unacceptable, and it was also very unexpected for him.
The third Buddha nodded with satisfaction and chanted "Amitabha".
Then, I saw Sect Master He slowly stand up and come all the way to the side of the third Buddha, humble as a little novice.
I saw that the third Buddha elder placed one hand on the top of Sect Leader He's head, and while chanting the Buddha's name in his mouth, he saw Sect Leader He's long hair falling off, blown by the breeze, and tufts of long hair flying all over the sky.
And Sect Master He stood beside the Third Buddha Elder, as if he didn't realize that something was wrong in him, and he was still humbly nailed there and did not move.
After the third Buddha was ordained for Sect Master He, he shouted the Buddha's name, and his eyes finally fell on Xu Yang's body, and said: "Sect Leader Xu, Sect Master He can take refuge under my Buddhism, and it is also his best destination." Dare to ask Sect Leader Xu, are you interested in taking refuge in my Buddhism?"
Xu Yang was shocked when he heard that the other party had begun to woo him, shook his head and waved his hand, and his body retreated again and again, and said with a smile: "I don't want to." I don't want toγγγγγγ β
The Third Buddha Elder was unhappy when he saw that the other party refused to take refuge in Buddhism, but he was not willing to give up because of this, and said: "Although Sect Master Xu has also practiced some of my Buddhism's methods, it is not a superior method. If Sect Master Xu can take refuge in my Buddhism, he will definitely cultivate some more superior methods, and he will definitely make Sect Master Xu's methods reach an incredible level. β
Xu Yang scoffed when he heard the other party tempting him with sugar-coated cannonballs, knowing that the other party was referring to the Dharma body standing behind him, but he was also curious about what cultivation methods the Buddhism had and asked, "Dare to ask the Buddha: How many cultivation methods are there in the Buddhism?"
"There are two major parts of my Buddhism, Mahayana and Hinayana, each of which is divided into 18,000 species, and each of them is subdivided into 64,000 species. No matter which method is cultivated, one can be freed from birth and death, away from illness, and finally attain the attainment of merit and attain transcendent sanctification. The three Buddhist scriptures of the "Past Mida Sutra", "Present Rulai Sutra", and "Future Lamp Sutra" practiced by Sect Master Xu are a small part of the Hinayana method. The Third Buddha explained.
Xu Yang listened to Fang Zai's careful explanation to himself, and never thought that Buddhism would have so many cultivation methods, and wondered in his heart: "It is conceivable from this that Buddhism must be the number one sect between heaven and earth." β
Although the third Buddha said that the sky was falling and constantly seducing Xu Yang, Xu Yang still had no intention of converting to Buddhism in addition to marveling at the vastness of Buddhism.
And when the third Buddha continued to lure Xu Yang to take the bait, the auspicious light emitted by the crown and orb on Xu Yang's head became stronger and stronger, so that Xu Yang did not lose himself under the sweet words of the other party, otherwise Xu Yang was afraid that he would also convert to Buddhism like Sect Master He.
Xu Yang smiled and said: "Although Buddhism has so many cultivation methods, each of them can help people cultivate to perfection, and not only Buddhism's methods can help people reach the top. I have made up my mind, I will not take refuge in Buddhism, and I hope that the Buddha will forgive my sins. β
The third Buddha saw that he was sarcastic and talked for a long time, but the other party didn't take the bait, and he also refuted himself, knowing that the culprit was caused by the crown and orb on the other party's head.
Although the third Buddha was angry and hateful in his heart, it was not good to blatantly break the crown and orb on Xu Yang's head, and he was even more unable to use strong means to force Xu Yang to convert to Buddhism, otherwise it would definitely have a bad impact on Buddhism.
When the third Buddha saw that he had said everything to this point, Xu Yang still refused to take the bait, and couldn't help sighing, and said, "Good." Since Sect Master Xu has his own growth path, then I won't be reluctant. β
Xu Yang saw that the other party was no longer forcing himself, and he breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise the other party would be aggressive, then only by fighting with the other party could he make the other party give up on himself.
"Thank you for your kindness. If you have the opportunity in the future, you will listen to the teachings of the Buddha in the future. Xu Yang said.
Seeing that his plan had failed, the Third Buddha felt a little lost, and said to the Buddha, "Sect Master Xu, then we will have a meeting later." As he spoke, he wanted to turn around and leave.
Xu Yang was shocked when he saw that the other party wanted to leave, and suddenly realized that he was still in the spirit world, and he didn't know the way to return to the lower world, so he wanted the other party to show him the way.
However, before Xu Yang could ask the other party, he saw the third Buddha elder say: "In nine days, my Lingmi Mountain will hold a once-in-a-century Dharma altar event." When the time comes, Sect Leader Xu can come to participate in this grand event, and he can also get to know the people in the spirit world. β
Xu Yang was surprised and delighted when he heard that Buddhism was going to hold a grand altar event, and when he was thinking about it in his heart, he suddenly saw the third Buddha aging into a long rainbow flying towards the west, and Sect Master He also left with the other party.
And when the third Buddha left, Xu Yang suddenly remembered that he hadn't asked the other party how to leave the spirit world, and he regretted it in his heart.
Xu Yang saw that there was no one around, and he was the only one standing here, looking up at the sky, he saw that the palace pavilions in the sea of clouds were completely destroyed, and he didn't know if the demon lord's side had won, or the spirit realm had won?
And Xu Yang saw that he didn't know how to return to the nether realm, and wanted to go above to ask someone, but thinking that the other party had just encountered a disaster, it was estimated that he was busy cleaning up the mess at this moment, and wouldn't he give a good face when he went there.
So, Xu Yang wanted to follow the example of Sect Master He and forcibly open a passage to the Nether Realm.
Xu Yang's Dharma Body also saw Xu Yang's thoughts, and immediately shouted, concentrated the strength of his whole body on a fist, and slammed it towards the void.
I saw that after Xu Yang's fist smashed into the void, it suddenly caused the sky to darken, the air was distorted and disordered, and the rumbling sound continued to erupt, and the squeezed air seemed to burst open.
However, after the dust settled, there was still no unusual place in the void in front of Xu Yangfa's body, let alone a passage to the nether realm.
Xu Yang was shocked when he saw that the Dharma Body was trying his best to punch the void, so that there was no abnormality around him, and it was conceivable that he was afraid that he would not be able to leave the spirit realm for a while.
"Could it be that we are playing with a deviation in position?" Xu Yang muttered as he looked around.
However, when Xu Yang wanted to find the passage place where his group came to the spirit world, he searched and searched, and found that the radius was exactly the same, and he couldn't find the place where he came to the spirit world before.
After everyone came to the spirit world, they went back and forth again and again, and before they knew it, they had traveled countless times. Coupled with the blue sky and white clouds in a radius of thousands of miles, how can you still find an unusual location?
And just when Xu Yang was anxious, and Xu Yang's body was aimlessly beating around, he suddenly heard the sound of running away and chasing in the distance, and he was startled.
Xu Yang didn't understand what was happening, he put his hand on a pergola in front of him, and looked towards the place where the sound came from, and saw a little girl running in the sky in a panic, while behind him were two golden-armored giants chasing each other, and shouting at each other to stop from time to time.
And when Xu Yang saw this little girl for the first time, he was immediately startled, and cried out in a lost voice: "Is it Xiaohuan?"
