Chapter 598: Traces of Twenty Years Ago
The Western Regions Lingmiao Treasure Mountain, the Buddha Country, the Great Monk of the Seven Yang Valley Zen Sect, the Buddha
The next day, Chen Xi's mind was full of these words. The great monk Yangzhao was seriously injured and died that day, in fact, Chen Xi had already felt it when he was walking with him on his back. While Chen Xi was talking to him, he had been using the power of the stars and the power of the nine-colored stone to try to control the injuries of the great monk Yangzhao. Unfortunately, it wasn't a one-day or two-day injury, nor was it an injury or two.
At that time, the great monk of Yangzhao, even if Zisang Xiaoduo was afraid, he couldn't save it. His body's vitality had vanished, and he was holding on to it by a will. The great monk Yangzhao originally wanted to use his death to save Chen Xi, but when he saw Chen Xi get out of trouble safely, the tension in his heart also dissipated, so death came randomly.
It was when the great monk disappeared that Chen Xi seemed to see a door open in the sky. There is a golden light flashing, and the sound of Buddha is lingering, and it seems to be full of auspicious and quiet atmosphere. Chen Xi saw the great monk Yangzhao walk into the door, and also saw many monks wearing brand-new monk's robes greeting the great monk Yangzhao there.
Later, according to the great monk Yangzhao, no, according to the Buddha on the Lingmiao Treasure Mountain in the Western Regions, it was the great monk of the Qiyang Valley Zen sect who taught the great monk that their mental power was not dispersed, so they saved the great monk Yangzhao. However, this can't explain why Yangzhao, who is far away in the Central Plains, will appear in the Lingmiao Treasure Mountain in the Western Regions when his soul awakens?
Why did you see the Buddha?
The great monk Yangzhao said that it should be the mental power of the elder brother who sent him to the Lingmiao Treasure Mountain in the Western Regions. Although the Qiyang Valley Zen Buddhism in the Central Plains is not exactly the same as the Western Regions Zen Buddhism, they are all in the same breath. Perhaps in the eyes of the great monk in charge, only the Buddha can save the sun. But if this is the case, why didn't the souls of those great monks go to the Lingmiao Treasure Mountain, but in another unknown place?
Is it because the practice of Zen Buddhism is different from that of ordinary practitioners? Or is it because, as the Buddha said, those great monks who go to the Buddha country are pure-hearted people who have never given birth to even the slightest evil thought in their lives, or for decades, or centuries, or for hundreds of years?
Chen Xi couldn't understand this problem, although he had lived in Zen Buddhism in Qiyang Valley for ten years, but during those ten years, the great monk was worried that some of the truths of Zen Buddhism would affect Chen Xi's growth, and Chen Xi's physique was not suitable for practicing the gentle self-cultivation of Zen Buddhism, so Chen Xi did not know much about Zen Buddhism. It is not so much that he understands Zen Buddhism, but that he understands the group of great monks in the Seven Yang Valley.
"Great monk, what kind of person is the Buddha?"
Chen Xi couldn't help but ask when he thought of this.
It seemed that the great monk of Yangzhao seemed to recall it carefully, and then shook his head very seriously. Yes, this shaking head was by no means a perfunctory shake, but an answer after careful consideration. And he couldn't even think of any suitable words to describe the Buddha for a moment, so he just shook his head.
Chen Xi thought of the ordinary people on Zhongnan Mountain, who were cultivating and protecting the Seven Annihilations. In the notes solemnly preserved by the patriarchs of the past dynasties, there are actually some records of the Buddha. In that account, the Buddha was a person whose gender could not even be determined. The Buddha that men see in their eyes is a man, and the Buddha that women see in their eyes is a woman. The person who took the note described the Buddha as resembling a heavenly man rather than a human being, because the Buddha looked too perfect, whether it was words, deeds, temperament, or appearance, he was perfect to the extreme.
"It's hard to say. ”
After thinking about it for a while, the answer was still so vague: "I always feel that the Buddha is not in front of me, even if he is standing in front of me, but I still feel that he is in the distant distance." I just looked back and realized that I didn't even remember what the Buddha looked like. I only remember his bearing, his demeanor, and even his voice. ”
Chen Xi frowned slightly: "The Buddha on the Lingmiao Treasure Mountain, why is it so mysterious?"
The great monk Yangzhao said: "At his height, with that status, it is no longer possible to think about it without being mysterious." The Western Regions are different from the Central Plains, and in the Western Regions, all the countries believe in Zen Buddhism. In the eyes of ordinary people, the identity of the Buddha is God, an omnipotent and omniscient god. In a large country like the Kingdom of Goddesses, the empress also bows when she sees the Buddha. So even if he was not mysterious before, he had to be mysterious later. ”
Chen Xi understood the meaning of these words, since it was faith, and it was the faith of so many people, it was better to be mysterious. If you tell the people of the Western Regions that the Buddha is just an ordinary person, will they believe it? Even if you tell them that the Buddha is a powerful practitioner, they still don't believe it. Because in their eyes, the Buddha is the Buddha, and it should be mysterious.
"What's wrong?"
Chen Yanran saw that Chen Xi's brows were a little deep, and he couldn't help but ask.
Chen Xi slowly shook his head: "It's nothing, it's just that I was suddenly very curious about the Buddha." A person like him with great wisdom and great compassion, since he can spend so much cultivation to reshape the body of the great monk, why don't he come? Why don't you fight the abyssal beast?"
By the time there were still three or four days to go from Blue Star City, Chen Xi's physical strength had already been exhausted. After so many days of sleepless and hurrying as fast as he could, his cultivation power was almost exhausted. Having already entered the land of Great Chu, Chen Xi did not dare to rush so unscrupulously. Once you encounter an enemy, it will be extremely dangerous if all three of them are not capable of fighting.
So for the sake of safety, Chen Xi decided to find a safe place to rest. He no longer had the power of the stars in his body, and he couldn't sense where the Zisang family's refuge was. If it can be found, then it will be faster to treat my father and the great monk Yangzhao. Because Zisang Xiaoduo could travel through the Zisang family's refuge at will, but if Chen Xi didn't use the power of the stars to stabilize their injuries, they might not be able to hold out until now.
Chen Xi chose a quiet place and created a small space to rest. Comparatively speaking, the space created by the Great Cultivators of the Cave Treasure Realm is already very large. But there is no doubt that the smaller the space for creation, the more stable it is, and the less likely it is to be discovered. Now the Central Plains is in a mess, and there are abyssal beasts everywhere.
Moreover, Chen Xi speculated that the king of the abyssal beast kings, that is, the mysterious saint king, had left the endless abyss. Chen Xi snatched two Endless Abyss Cores in a row, which obviously made that Saint King angry and anxious, and even affected her big plan. Therefore, Chen Xi didn't dare to be careless, once the Saint King sensed the breath of the Endless Abyss Core, with the current strength of the three of them, he was afraid that they would not be able to stop the Saint King together.
Within the space, Chen Xi continued to use the power of the nine-colored stone to treat Chen Qianran and the great monk Yangzhao. He was slightly relieved to see that the wound did not continue to deteriorate.
He sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes and concentrated to recover his cultivation. The last time he rescued Tang Gu, Chen Xi's dantian qi sea collapsed, and later he used the power of the entire Tianfu Continent to reshape his physical body, and the dantian qi sea became more stable. As long as he was given a little time to recover, his dantian qi sea would be able to recreate the required cultivation power.
In fact, this is where Chen Xi's metamorphosis is, with his current physique, he can already enter the endless abyss. However, there was one thing that could never be overlooked, and that was that there was no Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi in the Endless Abyss on which cultivators could survive and fight. Chen Xi could adapt to the breath of the Endless Abyss, but this did not mean that Chen Xi could use the power of the breath in the Endless Abyss.
Therefore, the dantian qi sea has become the most important place. When Chen Xi's cultivation was strong enough to enter the Endless Abyss, what he needed was the speed at which his dantian qi sea could create the power of cultivation, which could keep up with the speed at which he consumed the power of cultivation. However, the current dantian qi sea is obviously not so powerful.
"Looking at him now, I'm still in a trance. ”
Chen Xi opened his eyes after practicing for two hours, and felt that his physical strength had partially recovered, but he still needed to be conditioned to return his body to its best state. He looked at Lin Jilin's corpse and said, "The Holy Emperor of Great Chu has been killed, and now the corpse is in my hands. Once this news spreads, then whether it is Lin Qiping or Lin Qicheng, they will have to play with me. ”
Chen Duran said: "So I'm curious, why did you come back with his corpse?"
"Because of the national teacher. ”
Chen Xi got up and walked to Lin Jilin's corpse, squatted down and took a closer look: "The national teacher has been controlling Lin Jilin for more than ten years and nearly twenty years, if you want to perfectly control a puppet, then what is the best way? First of all, turn Lin Jilin into a walking corpse, but the walking dead is too rigid and rigid, those big families in Tianshu City are not stupid, it won't take long to see that Lin Jilin has a problem." ”
Chen suddenly realized: "Therefore, in order to control Lin Jilin, the national teacher must separate his own wisps of divine consciousness and put them in Lin Jilin's body. This is the most perfect control, and at the same time, he has the advantage of the people who know Lin Jilin best, so using his own divine sense to drive Lin Jilin's body, it is difficult for those people in the big family to see the flaws. ”
"Won't the national teacher be found soon?"
Monk Yangzhao's face changed: "Since Lin Jilin has a wisp of the national teacher's divine consciousness in his body, then if you take Lin Jilin's corpse, the national teacher must have noticed it a long time ago." ”
"Nope. ”
Chen Xi shook his head: "If the national teacher could detect it, he would have found Lin Ji a long time ago." It was Gou Chen who controlled Lin Jilin to go to the East China Sea, and I think the divine consciousness left by the national teacher in Lin Jilin's body has been erased by Gou Chen. Otherwise, Lin Jilin's every move would not be able to escape the gaze of the national teacher. Since he was doing things unscrupulously in Dongzhou, it was obvious that the national teacher had completely lost control of him. ”
The great monk Yangzhao nodded: "I see." But if that's the case, what else can you find with his body kept?"
Chen Xi sat down cross-legged beside Lin Jilin, stretched out his hand and put it on Lin Jilin's chest: "The reason why Lin Jilin was able to be resurrected was because he hid a trace of soul in his body at the beginning. And if you want to hide this soul from being discovered by the national teacher, the best place is, of course, the space in your body. Even after an ordinary cultivator reaches the cave hiding realm, it may be difficult to open up the space in his body, but Lin Jilin must be able to. ”
And the national teacher must have carefully probed Lin Jilin's body with his divine sense, but he just didn't find it. A person's divine consciousness is strong and will be preserved for a long time. For example, the evil god Baili Slave, his divine consciousness has been preserved in the endless abyss for tens of thousands of years. The national teacher's cultivation is strong, and the time for the preservation of his divine consciousness will be very long, since he has carefully explored Lin Jilin's body, there must be the slightest trace of his divine sense. ”
"And Gou Chen's erasure of the national teacher's divine consciousness should only control Lin Jilin's brain. He wouldn't carefully examine Lin Jilin's whole body, because he didn't have that need. ”
Chen Xi took a deep breath and reached out to stick his hand to Lin Jilin's body: "I'm going to look for it now, the traces left by the national teacher when he explored Lin Jilin's body twenty years ago. ”
