143, ancient and modern dynasties have many white lotus

Bai Mao once suggested that some people should be sent to join the diocesan organization in the name of believers, collect information at the grassroots level, and also prepare for the future. This work Liu Peifeng and the Black Dragon Gang are already arranged, otherwise there would not be an incident of the priest's signature** and the theft of the statue of the Virgin, but for the time being, there is no access to high-level information.

Bai Mao gave him two more ideas: one was to buy off a few members of the Holy See who were close to the core but were in a poor situation, such as the former priest of the Diocese of Uyu, Sheikh. The second is to secretly kidnap the core members of the Uyo diocese to extort confessions by torture, and with Xiaobai's empathy and his mental powers, he will definitely dig out all the secrets that the other party knows. Bai Shaoliu doesn't completely agree with such a suggestion, but he is also thinking about it, but it's not a good time to start recently.

In the past few days, Xiaobai himself has not been idle, and has been sitting in Huaiqiu to practice the "Pure White Lotus Platform" method contained in the "White Lotus Secret Classic", which has seven levels of "named", "contemplation", "wonderful thought", "reality", "ascension", "lotus flower" and "mida". This classic comes from the Pure Land Sect of Buddhism, but it also combines many folk practice methods, and there are many application methods in addition to the fundamentals, such as the construction of the White Lotus Pure Land Cave.

The first level, "name", also known as "holding a name", refers to the ritual of initiating ordination on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is also the introductory mental practice, which regulates the light of the Pure Land in the mind.

The second level, "Visualization", is a method of contemplation, in which Maitreya is enshrined in the heart and the consciousness is refined.

The third level, "Wonderful Thoughts", is another state in which the pure consciousness emerges from the concentration of meditation, and the world of Myoho-renge-hua appears.

The fourth level of "reality" is achieved by the wisdom of contemplating and fixing the environment, and the magic power is wonderful, with all kinds of magic power and concentration, mana to reduce external demons, and concentration to reduce inner demons. At this point, it can be said that it is a great achievement, and it can be mentioned to other disciples to get started.

On the one hand, it refers to the attainment of the Pure Land through the cultivation of great accomplishments, and on the other hand, it also refers to the unhindered internal and external cultivation of the body and mind, and the purity of the lotus flower, which is the opposite of the first level of the "named" realm and has true interest.

The sixth level of "Lotus Blossom" is also called "Standing Body", which simply means cultivating the Lotus Blossom incarnation to be immortal, and standing in the world is the Pure Land. The observation does not enter the self without seeing the appearance, and in contrast to the second level of the realm of "observation", the Dharma that is observed has become the body of my lotus flower.

The seventh level of "Mita" is the saying of "family Mita" that has been circulated among the people since ancient times, and it is also the so-called "Maitreya was born". Of course, from the perspective of the realm of cultivation, it does not mean that Maitreya's mother gave birth to him, but that it refers to being able to show the twelve qualities of the lotus platform to transform the world. The lotus blossom world in the third level of "wonderful imagination" is transformed from one's own heart to show the world...... A more specific explanation can only be understood.

This is the fundamental practice method recorded in the White Lotus Secret Classic, the highest text of the White Lotus Sect since ancient times. A few more words about the White Lotus Sect, it originates from the Pure Land Sect of Buddhism, and if you talk about the candidate realm, it is naturally wonderful. But you don't have it now, in addition to the practice method, there is also the doctrine of Maitreya's salvation, which can become a kind of action slogan or even a political program with a little codification. Those who have acquired it since ancient times may be far from reaching the realm of "Lotus Blossom" and "Mida" in their first life, but they are often used for other purposes.

What is the purpose? This doctrine can be distorted into the best call for gathering people to raise righteousness, and there have been more than one incident in history when someone used the name of the White Lotus Sect or a doctrine similar to the White Lotus Sect to rebel or gather a crowd to claim respect. The winners include a generation of emperor Zhu Qiaowu and others, and the losers include Hong Hequan, who died under Bai Shaoliu. Now that the "White Lotus Secret Classic" is in the hands of Bai Shaoliu, he doesn't think so, he just treats it as a cultivation classic.

I have to say that the grandmaster who founded this method is very remarkable, and these seven levels are secretly in harmony with the seven heavenly tribulations**, body, demon realm, delusion, vacuum, bone change, and sea of suffering that Bai Mao said that cultivators must experience. The so-called Heavenly Tribulation is a variety of physical and mental tests, and the tests faced by disciples in each sect are different, but they can't bypass these seven kinds, but the difficulty is different for different people.

Then, in the method of "Pure White Lotus Terrace", the seven layers of heavenly tribulation are included in the seven levels of realms, and each layer of realm must go through a kind of test. Moreover, the heavenly tribulation in the cultivation of this Dao method does not come suddenly, but must always be faced in the process of cultivation, until the breakthrough of the first level of realm, which is a typical kind of gradual cultivation epiphany.

The "Pure White Lotus Terrace" method may be difficult to understand, but there is also a convenient way to understand it, ignoring all terms or religious teachings, and recalling Bai Shaoliu's practice so far.

Xiaobai began to practice Taoism from Qingchen to learn the "unity of form and spirit", and cultivated to "the unity of form and spirit" and built a foundation. Later, when he met Bai Mao, he learned to "return to the soul fairy dream", "life and death view", "exterior scene and internal and external sense", etc., collectively known as "desire and mind", and also mastered the application spells such as "empathy opening technique", "imperial object", "imperial weapon", "imperial form" and so on. After the completion of the Desire Mind, its realm is equivalent to reaching the fourth level of "reality" in the Pure White Lotus Terrace**, and the methods are different but the realm is similar.

Bai Mao said that he wanted to guide Xiaobai to take a shortcut that seemed to be a detour, and Xiaobai's cultivation progress was extremely fast. At this point, you can directly practice the mantra and mental method of "reality", and at the same time go through the delusional tribulation, and in the process, the mana and concentration will be greatly increased, and the condition is to pass the test of delusion at the same time.

Bai Shaoliu has been sitting in Huaiqiu for the past few days to practice the pure white lotus platform**, and at the same time asked Jiu Jingang and others to arrange this dojo according to Bai Mao's instructions. There is also Wu Tong who is practicing in Huaiqiu, Xiaobai asked him to come here every night to practice swords, and his main cultivation is the way of imperial weapons.

Through the last battle of Qi Xianling, Xiao Bai Xian Wu Tong's fighting method was flawed from time to time. With the degree and strength of a werewolf, he could get out immediately when he was attacked, but if he wanted to protect Eva from being trapped, he was passive, and he had no means of long-range attacks except for degree and swordsmanship. So in the past few days, he instructed Wu Tong to practice swords, and he practiced two moves, one is the powerful arc light slash of the cross sword, and the other is the flying sword slashing technique of taking off the sword, which can be regarded as a combination of East and West.

Xiaobai hasn't been home for a week, and he only remotely controls the situation of Wuyou in the Huaiqiu, and Wu Tong secretly goes to Qixian Ridge every day to inspect it. He would leave Zahuaiqiu every morning and evening for a while, find a quiet place to call home to report his safety, Zhuang Ru and Qingchen at home, including the * downstairs, miss him very much, but Xiaobai has no plans to go back for the time being. It was eventful, and he didn't want to implicate the people he cared about, especially Qingchen, who hadn't fully recovered his mana.

Cultivating the Pure White Lotus Terrace** has not yet broken through the "reality" in terms of realm, but with the help of the star marrow, the mana and concentration have improved rapidly. In addition, Xiao Bai was also studying other spells, and he had been thinking about the sneak attacker on Qi Immortal Ridge that day, that person could fly, so he couldn't stop it. Not only is that magic master, Gu Ying can also fly when he uses those three spars to form a formation to protect himself, and the third young master can also fly with a weapon, but he can't. Wouldn't it be very uncomfortable to meet such an opponent in the future? People can walk from the sky, and they can only stare dryly.

He asked Bai Mao: "With my cultivation, when will I be able to fly into the sky?"

Bai Mao glanced at him: "It's no problem to break through the fifth layer of the Pure White Lotus Terrace and enter the sixth layer of the 'Lotus Flower'." ”

Bai Shaoliu: "I haven't broken through the fourth layer of 'reality' yet, so when will I have to wait?"

Bai Mao: "You're not an anxious person, how can you ask such a thing? It's been less than a year since you started practicing, and you've already completed your desire concept, and you're fast enough." But it's impossible for the weapon to fly so fast, not even when I did. Even if you have good fortune in a previous life, it is not so easy to practice in this life...... If you really want to fly with a weapon, there's a cheap way to do it. ”

Bai Shaoliu's eyes lit up: "What method?"

Bai Mao pretended to be deep and said: "The Pure White Lotus Terrace ** is similar to the concept of desire and desire that you cultivated before, and each level has the triple realm of 'being able to enter', 'being able to keep', and 'being able to break'. As long as your 'reality' level reaches the point where you can keep it, holding the town palace artifact of the Heavenly Palace of Forgetfulness in the Wind Festival or waving the cloud staff, you can fly around the world against the wind and clouds. ”

Bai Shaoliu: "How can you get your hands on the palace artifact of the Heavenly Palace?"

Bai Mao smiled: "You can steal it, if your cultivation has reached the highest 'Mida' realm in the Pure White Lotus Terrace, you can try it, but it's just a try, and you may not be able to steal it." ”

Bai Shaoliu stretched out his hand and slapped the donkey: "It turns out that you are playing with me!"

Bai Mao: "I'm not playing tricks on you, I want to tell you a truth, you can use power and scheming to act in the world, but there is no way to take advantage of speculation in the cultivation realm." You've taken a shortcut when you meet me, what else do you want?...... By the way, why do you suddenly want to ask this question?"

Bai Shaoliu: "It's not because of the master Qi Xianling met that day, I have no way to fly away from him." ”

Bai Mao: "In this way, let me think about it, don't you have a lock beast ring and a demon rope? If someone else flies up, you can lock it down! Now your realm can just use these two magic weapons, as for the effect, it depends on your mana and concentration, otherwise even if you can fly as good as others, it will be useless." ”

Bai Mao's words reminded Xiaobai that until now, those two magic weapons have not been taken out to study the wonderful use, it seems that the magic weapon is the same as a woman, too much to take care of. The star marrow is used every day, and the moisturizing technique is an indispensable thing when building a dojo, and Soft Yanluo is taking the time to continuously refine and prepare to defend Luo Xi in the future, and he really doesn't have time to study the lock beast ring and the demon rope. So he took out these two magic weapons and studied them with Bai Mao.

The magic of locking the beast ring is very similar to the mana in myths and legends, locking a person's mana, and the more you cast the spell, the more powerful it is. These two artifacts can be used separately, but when they are refined, they are formed in one piece, and they work best together. When used, it is sacrificed with mana, locked with concentration, and controlled the opponent with the power of the shape of a large block.

I don't know how to resist the form, I can't use these two magic weapons, and the power of locking beasts and blocking demons doesn't just come from the caster himself. As for how powerful it is, it depends on the user's mana and concentration, and not everyone can take it. Xiaobai wants to test its magic use, and Wu Tongke will suffer a lot.

What's the matter with Wu Tong? Someone has to do the experiment, and if he can't find a flying master, let Wu Tong leap down from the top of the mountain to all directions again and again. Although werewolves can't fly, they can leap far from the top of a mountain, faster than birds, making them a good mock opponent. Xiaobai stood in the valley and sacrificed the lock beast ring and the demon rope, this instrument can turn the real into the virtual and then turn the virtual into the real, change all kinds of shapes, and lock the Wu Tong in the sky again and again. When I was recycling, I accidentally controlled it badly, and often smashed Wu Tong to pieces.

In fact, when it comes to flying opponents, you can find Gu Ying to test, but how can Xiao Bai be embarrassed? You can also find Qingchen to leap from the peak, she is stronger than Wu Tong, but how can Xiao Bai be reluctant? So only Wu Tong is unlucky to make a dedication, but fortunately, the werewolf skin and flesh are strong, and there is no big problem.

It's not a big problem, but it's enough to suffer, and Wu Tong began to complain on the second day of the experiment: "Mr. Bai, can we rest? If I continue to practice, I will be broken up by you." ”

Bai Shaoliu shook his head: "You bear with it a little longer, I haven't mastered the magic of the utensils yet, and I won't fall against you when I am proficient." We won't stop when we stop others, what will we do next time we meet a flying master?"

Wu Tong: "I don't understand, there are so many masters in the world, why are we the only ones busy here?"

Bai Shaoliu said with a straight face: "How do you know that other masters have no action, they will only do more than you and me, but you and I don't know, do you still have to go to TV and newspapers for what people have done? Do you want to report to you and me?...... Doing our own thing is the essence of cultivation, so let's not complain. ”

Wu Tong: "I'm not complaining, it's just that the situation in Uyu is not good now, and we are not opponents of the Holy See." I heard that they are going to come with two supreme masters, how can the Kunlun cultivators ......"

Bai Shaoliu interrupted him: "It's good for you to use your brains, people are not here to fight, they are here to deal with internal affairs of the Holy See." The Pope has long been cultivating books and settling disputes with the Kunlun cultivation community, and no one wants a world war, do you think it's fun to have countless deaths and injuries? How do you know that it wasn't you who died!"

Wu Tong: "But Hayent and Eva have had an accident, and they have been looking for trouble with Mr. Feng." ”

Bai Shaoliu: "The dead and injured are all the Holy See's own people, what can other people know and what can they say? As for Mr. Feng, no one dares to attack him directly, for example, the masters in Qi Xianling that day did not dare to plot against Mr. Feng, and they just did tricks behind their backs." He couldn't explain his personal vendetta with Avtena, and it was impossible for anyone to openly start a full-scale conflict over this matter in the name of the Holy See or the Kuncang Cultivation Circle, otherwise why did you give me so many magic weapons?"

Wu Tong: "Mr. Bai, I'm worried about you, if there is really a peerless master who is secretly making a mistake, I'm afraid we won't be able to handle it, these magic weapons are not easy to take." ”

Bai Shaoliu nodded slightly: "What you said is not unreasonable, I should have informed the Lord of the Mei League, but there is no need now, the Lord of the Mei League and a group of senior masters of Kuncang are not in Zhixu Country, and the news that the two masters of the Holy See have left Mount Gambides to Wuyou, the Lord of the Mei League and the others must have known earlier than me...... I already knew what the Mei Alliance Lord and the others meant, they did theirs, and I did mine in Uyu, and he ignored it to make it more convenient for me to act. ”

Wu Tong: "Then do you say that the leader of the Mei League and others will also come to Wuyuan?"

Bai Shaoliu: "If it were me, I'm afraid not." ”

Wu Tong asked puzzledly: "Why?"

Bai Shaoliu: "Do you know some strategy, if those two masters don't have good intentions, why bother to chase all the way to Wuyou? As long as there is a disturbance near the Holy See, the Pope will definitely recall the master of the housekeeper in a panic, and even if he robs and kills in the middle of the road, it will be better than doing it in Wuyou." ”

Wu Tong: "Although this is better, Mr. Bai's situation in Wuyou is more troublesome." ”

Bai Shaoliu sighed and said: "This is Mr. Feng's test, and it is also my test, who doesn't have trouble? The world shouldn't revolve around a certain person...... But don't worry, it's hard for others to say, there is a peerless master in the Kunlun cultivation world who will definitely come to Wuyou. ”

Wu Tong: "Who?"

Bai Shaoliu: "The head of Haitian Valley, the hero of Canglang Yu Cangwu, he is Qingchen's mentor, but he does not admit that he is Qingchen's official master." But Wang Bobei is the first son of Haitian Valley, and he was personally sent to Wuyou by Yu Daxia, and it is impossible for a master like Yu Daxia to not know about it after being missing for so many days, and I already told Chen Yan of Zhiweilou in Weishui yesterday the news...... Yu Daxia should come to Wuzhi, he has a need and a reason to come, but I don't know when. ”

Wu Tong praised: "Mr. Bai, you are so tall, you can see everything so thoroughly in your eyes, admire!

Xiaobai smiled bitterly in his heart when he heard this, and now he listens to the donkey nagging in his ear every day, and it is really difficult not to understand many troubles. It's just that although he thought that Yu Cangwu would go to Wuyou, he didn't expect that what Yu Cangwu was looking for when he went to Wuyou was his Bai Shaoliu's trouble......

The rector of the Supreme Seminary of the Gambides, Dempriedo, came to Zhixu in early June, bringing with him a papal edict canonizing Luz as archbishop of Zhixu on behalf of the Holy See. Despredo will arrive on June 4 for the canonization, and on the morning of June 3, Fotimore finally "healed" Adillo's wounds.

Luz tells Adilo to go see Avtena and says that Avtena is waiting for him and will bring a message back when she sees him. After Adillo had thanked him for leaving, Luz asked Fortimore in the secret room, "Amazing teacher, how did you heal his wounds?"

Fotimore smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Actually, I haven't completely healed his injuries. ”
