Chapter 119: The Great Yuan Tribulation
Three days later, in the early morning, in the open space in front of the cave in the Hall of Heroic Souls, a group of young men and girls were around.
"Have you heard? There is a new cultivation method in the Heroic Soul Hall, which can be practiced for those who are not suitable for cultivation. A very thin looking boy looked at his companion who was even thinner and spoke.
"Isn't that similar to martial arts? I have been weak since I was a child, I have no surplus food at home, and I can't even achieve martial arts, what are I doing here? The boy's face was a little gloomy, and he replied in a low voice.
"That's not right!" Another little girl with some fat on her cheeks spoke, "I heard that the cultivation method this time was conceived by the gods in the Heroic Soul Palace. As long as the people selected this time can not only eat enough, but also get the help of the gods, break through the limitations of the body, and cultivate mana. ”
"Really? We can become monks too! Not only did the two thin boys look over, but the rest of the boys and girls on the side all looked over, looking at the somewhat mellow girls, they couldn't help but believe a little.
The environment of the Demon Continent is destined to be a child with round cheeks, and the family background is not simple.
When the girl saw everyone looking over, she straightened her chest and said proudly: "Of course, you must know that this is what my father said, and my father is ......."
In the Hall of Heroic Souls, Yuan Qingwei listened to the cheers that became more and more excited outside, and looked at Shen Hong with some complexity: "Is it really good not to tell them about the dangers they may face and the efforts you have made?" ”
"The method of fighting qi was obviously given to me by you, don't you know that with scruples and luck, the probability of them breaking through will be even lower?" Saying that, Shen Hong just sighed: "Actually, you know it in your heart, don't you?" This method of fighting spirit has lost the way of the gods, and it is even worse than the method of the demon way. But Shinto faith, without decades or even hundreds of years of guidance, ordinary people simply cannot rely on faith to resonate with the divine power of your blessing in the face of those dangers. And those who can rely on their own beliefs to face those who are dangerous, it is impossible to believe in you. ”
"So you want to be guided by some suggestiveness? Or do you want me to directly influence their hearts with divine power? First of all, there is no way to deceive this thing, you can guide, you can guide, but I can't do it myself, if you have this plan, I advise you to dispel it as soon as possible. Yuan Qing frowned slightly in response.
"I don't want you to influence them, I just let you set up some guiding formations around you, and then at the right time, I will create an accident or two to 'force' a child to awaken his fighting spirit. With a successful case, it will be much easier for children to guide them later. ”
"Impossible!" Yuan Qingwei shook his head and said: "Faith can be the comfort of the soul, it can be selfless love and care, and it can even be a kind of spiritual sustenance for self-escape, but it must not be the product of the gods themselves." I can help you build a sanctuary with the ability of tranquility, purity, and sacredness, and I can also help you deduce the corresponding magic circle, and even lend your divine power to you as a driving force for operation, but I will never personally affect the beliefs of those children. ”
"Why? What's the use of you going around the bend like this? Shen Hong was a little strange, and Yuan Qingwei didn't reply.
As he studied Shinto more and more, Yuan Qingwei discovered that some of these mysteries, such as the belief brought about by coercion and deception, could not be called true faith for the gods. After all, the gods themselves represent a kind of rule, a kind of order, and the power is not only a kind of authority, but also a kind of embodiment of the crowd, and only when there are more and more people who are on the same path as them, and use it as a foundation, they continue to extend outward and change, can they truly bring immortality and strength to the gods.
Faith that comes from coercion and deception, according to Buddhism, carries with it terrible karma.
If you make a contract with the believers in advance, stand on the altar of the gods, ignore the common people, and do not end up in person, it is better to say.
If you go down in person and forcibly turn someone into your own believer, then their willpower and cause and effect are deeply entangled, and it doesn't matter if the number is small, but if the number is large, the karmic retribution that will be fed back in the future will inevitably occur from within the divine power, and it will be impossible to resist at all.
The most typical example of being killed by the karmic retribution contained in the power of willingness, in addition to various evil gods, is the Great Yuan Dynasty of the main world. At that time, the Great Yuan Dynasty used Buddhism to suppress thousands of Li people in Middle-earth, and tried to turn the entire Middle-earth into the foundation of the eternal existence of the Great Yuan through the karmic transformation circle that had been operating on the prairie for hundreds of years.
Their actions, at the beginning, were indeed successful, and a large number of people were "edified" by the Dharma, forgot to resist, chose to pursue the afterlife, and became docile "sheep" under Da Yuan, to be slaughtered.
But what is the final outcome, the deceptive belief has forged the prosperity of Dayuan, and it has also become the root of Dayuan's downfall.
With the emergence of more and more rebel armies, people's beliefs gradually could not suppress the karma, the Yin world was repeated, the spiritual breath surged, and the terrifying wave of chaos directly swallowed the Great Yuan Yin World Dragon Court.
So far, no one knows what happened to the Great Yuan Dragon Court and those living Buddhas. But as long as you look at the oldest living Buddhas in the Western Regions of Dahua now, most of them are silent, very jealous of their willpower, and rarely appear in front of people, and most of the active ones are born after the Great Yuan, and those who are devoured by the living Buddhas are also numerous.
Perhaps, the end of Dayuan was influenced by the spiritual world, or maybe Shinto was able to suppress this karmic revolt after crossing a certain boundary. But Yuan Qingwei knew very well that he would never be able to do it, and he didn't want to try to do this kind of thing.
In his view, his relationship with the believers is closer to a transaction, in which he reaps the power of his wishes, or feeds them back into them, or transfers them into the hands of their ancestors, or gives them protection.
After repeatedly expressing his attitude of refusal, Shen Hong didn't have much to say, he simply changed his strategy, and transformed what should have been directly affected by Yuan Qingwei's divine power into a first-class magic circle, and also adjusted the follow-up "accidents".
Looking at Shen Hong, who was a little unhappy, Yuan Qingwei didn't say anything, and simply urged him to help collect the corresponding information afterwards. Yuan Qingwei, who stayed in the Heroic Soul Palace, began to condense his divine power, and a stream of divine light emerged from his palm, following a certain mysterious trajectory and merging into the land. The place where the children will live and train in the future will be transformed into a sacred area similar to a temple dojo, and he will begin to condense fifteen seeds containing the divine power of Yuan Qingwei, which is a pity on the surface, as a gift to the fifteen children who have passed the selection after a period of time.
These divine power seeds are specially concocted by Yuan Qingwei, and the immortal Dao method is used to bind the divine aura and minimize the impact of divine power on the children's minds.
