Chapter Eighty-Three: Face to Face

After the dust monk descended the mountain, he disappeared.

When Link and Jasmine came to the White Horse Zen Temple, they were also surprised by the changes in the White Horse Zen Temple.

"What's going on, Link?"

Jasmine looked at Link and asked suspiciously, "Is the good thing you sensed earlier related to this?" ”

"Nope."

Link shook his head and said calmly, "I didn't even sense the change. ”

"That'...... What's going on here? ”

Jasmine continued, feeling that something was wrong.

The change in the White Horse Monastery came too suddenly, without the slightest warning.

Moreover, the White Horse Zen Temple, which has become a ruin, has no traces of fighting, but has completely decayed under the action of time.

There are only two possibilities for this to happen.

One is that the White Horse Monastery fell into decay a long time ago;

The second is that there is anyone who can interfere with the existence of time and make a move against the White Horse Zen Temple.

Either way, Jasmine was terrified, and she was faintly afraid.

There is no other reason.

When it comes to time, it has to be the person of the saint.

Thinking of this, Jasmine looked up at the three rounds of the sun above her head.

"Don't worry, it's okay."

Link felt Jasmine's emotions and let out a sigh of relief, then changed the subject, "Come with me." ”

As the words fell, Link bypassed the ruins of the White Horse Monastery and walked towards the back mountain.

Jasmine hurried to follow Link's footsteps.

After a while, the two came to the lake in the back mountain and saw the white lotus blooming and swaying all over the lake.

"White Lotus ......"

Jasmine's lips furled, and she muttered the word, suddenly feeling a little emotional.

Sour, astringent......

Immediately, Jasmine suppressed these emotions and looked at Link.

At this time, Link was also looking at Jasmine, and the two happened to look at each other.

Silence is better than sound at this point.

As soon as her eyes met, Jasmine figured out what Link's next plan was.

"There you go."

Without hesitation, Jasmine opened her mouth and said softly, "Don't worry about me. ”

Link didn't say anything, just looked at Jasmine.

"Go ahead."

A grin broke out at the corner of her mouth, and Jasmine spoke again, urging.

"Hmm."

Link nodded, and floated towards the middle of the lake.

Jasmine took one look, took a deep breath, and turned to leave.

Everyone has his own ability, and if there are things that he can't do by himself, then do what he can do.

Although the situation in this world is already chaotic and erosive, it can be even more chaotic and erosive.

In this case, Jasmine plans to add another fire to make this pot of porridge more profitable.

In his special spirit state, Link floated to the middle of the lake and stood quietly with his eyes closed.

The white lotus that fills the lake blooms more vigorously and sways more happily.

Soon, the blooming white lotus gradually lost its brilliance, gradually drooped, and gradually decayed.

Soon, all the white lotuses in the lake withered, and only one lake remnant remained.

Soon, the water of the lake gushed up, as if there was something underground, and sucked all the remnants of the lake into it.

Link had been waiting quietly.

The lake began to spin, creating a whirlpool that grew larger and larger.

An irresistible suction was born from the whirlpool, sucking Link in his special spirit state into the whirlpool and fusing with a white lotus seed.

In the next second, the white lotus seeds disappeared, and the whirlpool of the lake suddenly subsided.

Jasmine, who left the White Horse Monastery, paused, and then continued walking.

After going down the mountain for a long time, the monk who held "if you don't return, you won't return" clasped his hands together and recited devoutly in his mouth: "Maitreya was born, and King Ming was born." ”

Link couldn't see Jasmine's pause at the moment, and couldn't hear Monk Chen's chanting.

He entered a very strange state, an extremely wonderful space.

After merging with the White Lotus Seed, Link's existence disappeared from the world where the White Horse Monastery was located, and followed the call of "no parents, vacuum home", and followed the countless prayers of longing for salvation in hopelessness, to the livable world where Iris shed the spark.

After coming here, Link was still in a disembodied state, located in a very large, extremely large, and extremely small "void".

It's as if this is the so-called "vacuum home".

In the "Vacuum Hometown", a white lotus is located in the most central place.

More than 100,000 sacrificial souls who believe in "lifeless old mothers, vacuum hometowns" surrounded the white lotus, meditated in an orderly manner, and prayed sincerely.

The white lotus seed fused by Link's special spirit body was suspended above the white lotus, and he desperately wanted to fuse with the white lotus, but he was inexplicably afraid.

It seems that after merging with the White Lotus, something terrifying will happen.

It seems that the white lotus plant underground is not the one that the white lotus seeds that came across the border originally wanted to fuse.

Looking down for a while, Link discovered the reason.

The two extremely familiar seals, the Yangping Zhidu Gong Seal and the Nine Old Immortal Seals, are in the stamens of the white lotus below, one left and one right, blooming with clear light.

Two wisps of clear light replaced the white lotus seeds that Link had melted at the moment, playing a role in maintaining the survival of the white lotus, but he was constantly trying to purify the white lotus.

The term "purification" is, of course, from the perspective of the two seals.

From the perspective of that white lotus, it is natural to change the word, such as "transformation", or more precisely, "deletion and modification".

The two seals want to delete and change the basic concept of the survival of White Lotus from the underlying logic!

"Void Celestial Master."

Link muttered this name, and then remembered the Heavenly Master's Mansion and the Old Heavenly Master standing behind the Void Celestial Master.

He said that this mission of going deep behind enemy lines and cooperating with the outside world could not only be a wizard civilization and not a fairy civilization.

Extrapolating from the current situation, there is obviously a division of labor between the wizard civilization and the immortal civilization.

The wizard civilization is responsible for the first half, and the immortal civilization is responsible for the second half.

The four sages of True Spirit, Elemental, Wisdom Machine, and Body Refining represent the wizard civilization and have refined the "snatching" witch weapon, and the immortal civilization naturally cannot behave too stingily.

No, didn't the Heavenly Master's Mansion take out another copy of the Yangping Zhidu Gong Seal and the Nine Old Immortal Capital Seal?

The key is, what is the role of these two imitation seals, and what is the purpose of the Heavenly Master's Mansion and the Immortal God Civilization!

Link thought for a while, thoughtful, but limited to limited information, he couldn't gain much, so he simply didn't think about it.

He focused his attention on himself.

According to the plan of one or several existences, the white lotus seed from the White Horse Zen Monastery must be fused with the white lotus below.

With the mixing of the two imitation seals, the white lotus seed can still forcibly fuse with the white lotus, but the effect will definitely be remote from the plan of that or those existences.

There are two things Link needs to consider:

First, whether to continue to let the white lotus seeds and the white lotus fuse;

Second, whether you want to integrate into it, and if so, in what form.

Without having to think about it for too long, Link made a decision.

"My fate is up to me."

With a mutter, he pointed directly at the root of the Immortal Civilization's Immortal Path Jindan Dao, and Link began to act.

The special spirit body detached from the White Lotus Seed, and then struck a heavy blow, completely shattering the White Lotus Seed.

The fragments of white lotus seeds, like invisible dust, were evenly distributed into more than 100,000 portions under Link's will, floating above the heads of each sacrificial necromancer.

What is the essence of the white lotus seed from the White Horse Monastery?

Its essence is the comprehension of the Bodhisattva Dharma, and the merits accumulated by the Bodhisattva Dharma.

These realizations and merits have now been broken into more than 100,000 parts by Link without hesitation, and they are evenly distributed to each sacrificial necromancer.

"The poor monk is mortal, and vows to save all sentient beings who are sinful and suffering, and they will reach Bodhi and become enlightened."

"If I don't go to hell, who will."

Two voices echoed in the "void" of the suspected "vacuum hometown".

The former sentence is a compassionate wish, and the latter is a firm will.

With the help of the comprehension and merits of the Master of Wusheng, the combination of compassion and great will and firm will bloom into supreme power.

"As I heard: ...... for a while"

The voice of compassion and firm will sounded again, intending to chant more than 100,000 sacrificed dead souls in the "vacuum hometown".

Located in the white lotus stamen, one left and one right, maintaining the survival of the white lotus and deleting the imitation seal of the white lotus's Yangping Zhidu Gong seal and the nine old immortal capital seals, suddenly flew out of the white lotus.

Like the white lotus seed shattering, the two imitation seals instantly split themselves and shattered into more than 100,000 pieces.

"As I heard: for a while, for a while, for a while......"

I was about to recite the scriptures, but the voices of the more than 100,000 sacrificed souls were immediately disturbed, and they could not continue to chant, as if they were stuck.

Link sees the change, is happy to see it, and doesn't intervene.

"One moment, one moment, one moment......"

The sound of the intended chanting of the scriptures was stuck, gradually decreasing, until it disappeared.

Another, more refreshing voice followed, seamlessly interconnecting.

"The Word:

In the past, in the beginning of the blue sky, the blue fell into the empty song, the big floating Li soil (dΓΉ), by the beginning of the people of the immeasurable quality.

……”

The clear voice was not disturbed in any way, and the chanting began.

In the sound of chanting, more than 100,000 superstitious sacrificial souls who believe in "no parents, vacuum hometown" gradually sobered up, realized their mistakes, and repented.

Then in repentance, he was redeemed.

"The heavens are swaying, and my Tao is prosperous."

As soon as this verse came out, more than 100,000 sacrificial dead souls stood up in unison, bowed to Lin Ke who was standing above the withering white lotus, was enlightened, and walked towards the next life.

In an instant, the space was extremely large and extremely small, and only Link's special spirit body and the white lotus that seemed to be completely withered were left.

"Come out."

Link fell from the sky above the white lotus at this time, standing side by side with the white lotus, and shouted loudly.

The sound echoed through this huge, vast and tiny space, humming and empty.

No one responded.

"Come out, don't hide it."

Link looked calm and repeated.

The words fell, and the withered white lotus disappeared, and a man with the same appearance, figure and figure as Iris. Clark is no different, but the figure of a woman with a completely different temperament emerges.

This woman, like Link now, exists in the form of a special spirit.

"When did you know I was here?"

The woman appeared and asked a nonsense question.

Link smiled, "I don't know, guess." ”

"Guess."

The woman muttered, and then asked, "What are you going to do when you call me out?" Kill me? ”

"I can't kill it."

Link replied indifferently, "I don't want to kill either." ”

"Why?"

The woman frowned, as if she was very confused.

Obviously, the woman is the "me" that Iris completely gave up, the ruthless person who killed back to the wizarding civilization universe from other universes.

It is also the "culprit" who brought Link to the wizarding civilization universe.

It is also Link who faces the "predetermined fate" and cannot avoid it.

Now, with the efforts of all parties, Link finally confronted the woman, and what he had to do was obviously not to fight and kill.

The rivers and lakes are not fighting and killing, the rivers and lakes are sophisticated.

"What do you want to know?"

After the doubt, the woman asked again.

Link shook his head when he heard this: "I don't want to know anything, I just want to hear what you say and see what you do." ”

This sentence made the woman's brow frown even tighter.

There was a sudden silence between the two.

Link looked at the woman calmly, and the woman frowned in thought.

In this strange space, which seems to be a "vacuum home", time seems to have no meaning.

Link and the woman maintained the same posture, and in a meaningless time, they were deadlocked for a long, long time.

And it can go on forever.

But in the outside world, the meaning of time is everywhere and has a vast impact.

Believing in the concept of "no parents, vacuum hometown", the believers who joined the Lotus Society, I don't know when, slowly underwent a fundamental change in concept.

The change is silent and unnoticeable to anyone.

Including sixteen girls and twenty-seven women trained by Iris herself.

I don't know when the Lotus Society's missionary and anti-Buddhist methods have become more and more natural and quiet.

The Lotus Society no longer slaughters every temple, and kills every monk.

Rather, if you can capture it, you will capture it, and if you can conquer it, you will conquer it.

After capturing the monks and occupying the Buddhist temple, the followers of the Lotus Society began to preach and discern the scriptures.

Not only the internal preaching and discernment of the scriptures, but also with the captured monks preaching and discerning the scriptures.

At the beginning, the believers of the Lotus Society, who were weak in their reasoning, could not distinguish the monks of the Buddhist temple at all.

But soon, in the process of preaching and discerning the scriptures, the believers of the Lotus Society filled the gap and laid a solid foundation under the guidance of voices that came from nowhere.

The slogan "No Parents, Vacuum Home" is becoming less and less mentioned.

The name of the Lotus Society is also gradually being abandoned.

Because at the beginning, to join the Lotus Society, you need to pay five buckets of rice, and the name "Five Buckets of Rice Road" is very smoothly accepted by the believers of the Lotus Society.

The behavior of resisting Buddhism has also slowly changed, and it is finally characterized as cutting down mountains and destroying temples and uprooting obscenity.

Yes, the believers of the Lotus Society, who have transformed into the "Five Buckets of Rice Dao", have turned the high Buddha Gate into obscenity!

It is naturally impossible for Buddhism to sit idly by and watch this change, let alone let the Five Bucket Rice Dao grow.

The intensity of strangling the five buckets of rice is getting stronger and stronger, not to mention King Kong and Arhats, even Bodhisattvas and Buddhas, all of whom are running around.

However, a spark can start a prairie fire.

The original Lotus Society can also be called a rootless Ping.

But the current five-bucket rice road is not an empty shelf without support.

What is pursued is not a "vacuum hometown" that can only be gone after death.

It is an earthly Taoist country that replaces the Buddha land on earth!

This is a struggle for survival, but also a struggle for Taoism.

The disease of scabies has become a major problem for the heart, from a disease in the intestines to a disease in the bone marrow.

The three rounds of the big sun on the top of the head sat and watched the changes, and there was no reaction. (End of chapter)
