Chapter 177: Immortal God Buddha
In the main hall.
Seeing that Su Xing, Carl and the old man were confused when they heard this, they didn't seem to know the origin of the immortals, gods, and Buddhas.
The monkey explained: "After having 'Shou', the first group of humans who believed in 'Shou' became the so-called immortals on the Dongsheng Divine Continent and the Southern Ganbu Continent.... And the most pious one among them became the Emperor Haotian, and then there was Heavenly Court and Life Pill. β
In the same way, the first group of humans who believed in 'spirits' became the gods of Beiju Luzhou.
The first group of human beings who believed in 'longevity' became Buddhists on Xiniuhezhou.
Su Xing was puzzled: "I heard that the number of immortal life expectancy seems to be unlimited, right?" If they don't die of old age, why did they disappear? β
"I don't know."
The monkey shook his head and said, "Hundreds of years ago, when I was not locked up in the Spirit Stone Mine, there were still immortals, gods, and Buddhas in the sky.... But after I escaped from the Lingshi Mine, it was only a few hundred years before those immortals, gods, and Buddhas disappeared inexplicably. β
The monkey thought for a moment and added, "Or it can be said that there is some reason why the immortals, gods, and Buddhas cannot appear on the birthday day." β
Ranwen
Immortals, gods, and Buddhas do not simply live in the heavens, but in the small world on the birthday star.
Among them, the immortal dwelling in the heavenly court needs to be entered through the South Heavenly Gate.
The Buddha dwells in Elysium and needs to be entered through the spiritual mountain.
The gods dwell in the divine realm and need to be accessed through Mount Olympus.
But now, these three realms are no longer accessible, so the monkey said that immortals, gods, and Buddhas can no longer appear on the birthday star.
And soon after the immortal gods and Buddhas disappeared, the four continents had a sign of catastrophe:
On the Dongsheng Divine Continent and the Southern Ganbu Continent, the Heavenly Court, which had not appeared for hundreds of years, began to target monks above the Jindan stage.
At the same time, countless human settlements were completely trapped by Heavenly Court with the 'Spiritual Light Great Array'.
The number of monsters in the wilderness has increased, and activities have become more frequent.
In Beiju Luzhou, the white fog invaded the entire continent for no reason, and there were constantly 'natural disasters'.
The gods have even turned into aquatic creatures with distorted shapes - these 'gods', Su Xing and the three of them have already experienced them on the seafood swamp.
In Xiniuhezhou, the number of demons transformed by humans has increased dramatically.
In places like Shihuling and Jinping Mansion, there were even several Jindan-level demons, resulting in countless deaths and injuries to mortals, and white bones all over the field.
This series of events together is collectively known as the 'Heaven and Earth Tribulation'.
It is said to be heaven and earth, but it is actually a catastrophe for the human race.
Hearing this, Su Xing's face showed a sudden expression: "I did have a guess before, thinking that 'natural disasters' and 'weird' were related to unspeakable, but I didn't expect that there was a hostile relationship between them....The three major disasters of 'weird', 'natural disaster' and 'demon' were actually born by the planet to kill all human beings." β
He said to the monkey: "So, if Elder Xuanzang goes to the extreme west of Xiniuhezhou to 'seek Buddha', can he stop the 'Heaven and Earth Tribulation'?" β
"Amitabha."
During the conversation, Xuanzang said loudly: "Although it can't be completely stopped, it can reduce the problems caused by the three major disasters to a certain extent.... The so-called 'seeking Buddha' is to let the indescribable creature 'Buddha' completely overwhelm the 'longevity' and 'spirit', and even drive the other two beings out of the birthday star. β
If there is no fighting between unspeakable creatures, and the number is decreasing, then the will of the planet will naturally no longer have an overreaction.
And the three major calamities born by the will of the planet, as well as the ensuing 'heaven and earth catastrophe', will also be alleviated or even eliminated to a certain extent.
Since the matter of 'seeking Buddha' is related to the catastrophe of heaven and earth, and even more so to one's own life, it is not impossible to really let Su Xing join the westward team.
After all, if there is real danger on the road, there are strong people like monkeys in front of you....
But before joining the team, Su Xing also wanted to know more details: "With the strength of the predecessors, in a few days at most, you can fly directly to the extreme west, even if you bring a mortal like Elder Xuanzang.... But I see that you are now walking to the far west? β
"Walking is a must."
The monkey did not rush to respond positively, but just asked Su Xing rhetorically: "Do you know how people who believe in the unspeakable can become immortals, gods, and Buddhas?" β
"Why?"
"Because of practice."
The monkey continued, "In order to become an immortal, a practitioner needs to have mortals kneel down and worship the statue of 'Shou', and in the process, collect a large number of 'black silk threads' and sacrifice them to the indescribable creature 'Shou'. β
As he spoke, the monkey looked at Carl beside him.
In his words: "I look at this little friend, and it is this method that I used to cultivate all the way to the Jindan stage.... If he continued to persevere, the end of his path would be to ascend to the Immortal Realm and become an immortal in the Heavenly Court. β
"And in order to become a god, one needs to believe in the 'spirit' and let chaos and madness accompany him, and then collect the 'black thread' from this process and sacrifice it to the unspeakable creature 'spirit'."
Speaking of this, the monkey laughed, "I have heard before that some of the gods of Mount Olympus were born from the chaos of their own peopleβthis is one of the several ways to create chaos. β
The monkey looked at the old man Mash Conrad and said, "If I guess wrong, this little friend is taking the path of believing in the 'spirit'.... When he reaches the end of this path, he will be able to ascend to the divine realm and become one of the gods of Mount Olympus. β
When Su Xing heard this, he subconsciously looked at Marsh Conrad.
The latter nodded, indicating that what the monkey said was indeed true: "What about Su Daoyou, what path did he take, and which one of his beliefs is indescribable?" β
The monkey said confusedly: "Su Xiaoyou.... I really can't see it, and Su Xiaoyou is indeed a little different. β
The monkey was right.
Su Xing has cultivated all the way to the present, although he has also improved his cultivation by collecting 'black silk threads', but he has not believed in any of the indescribable.
At the same time, he never performed any sacrifices.
Therefore, Su Xing is different from all Jindan period monks.
In the main hall.
Seeing that the monkey didn't want to say more, the old man didn't ask Su Xing's secret, but just said, "What about becoming a Buddha?" What do you need to do to become a Buddha? β
The monkey replied, "Those who become Buddhas need to practice penance, and only by feeling suffering, such as fasting, meditating, meditating, chanting, etc., can they collect the 'black silk threads' and then sacrifice them to the indescribable creature 'Buddha'.... When this path comes to an end, you will be able to become a Buddha and an ancestor and go to the Western Elysium. β
The monkey added, "My master is on the path to Buddhahood.... That's why he needs to walk all the way to the extreme west, going through all kinds of hardships on the way, so that in the shortest possible time, he can raise his cultivation to the point where he can 'become a Buddha'. β
Merely being a disciple of a Buddha is not enough to 'seek Buddha' and lead him to the other three continents.
The premise of seeking Buddha is that the person seeking Buddha must also have a certain degree of cultivation.
So here comes the new problem.
Su Xing said again: "With all due respect, I Guan Xuanzang's qualifications are mediocre, and now his cultivation is only in the Qi cultivation period.... So, why does the person who 'seeks the Buddha' have to be him? Is it okay to change to other Buddhist practices? If you find a Jindan period Buddha to cultivate, you have a certain amount of cultivation, wouldn't you not need to travel west, and you can immediately 'seek Buddha' success? β
"That's the truth." The monkey said, "But if my master can become a person who 'seeks Buddha', there is naturally something very special. β
