Chapter 69: Cutting Three Corpses to Enlightenment
Can you fulfill your promise to sentient beings?
Shang Bai Khan.
Whether it is the "New Moon Sutra" or the "Mixed Yuan Creation Sutra", the big words in it come as soon as they are opened, such as the promise that those who believe in him can enter the divine realm and obtain eternal life after death.
Don't say that he can't do it, even the Sanqing Saint or even Dao Ancestor Hongjun can't do it.
"Many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Buddhism have made great vows and obtained great mana, and in this regard, incense into gods is indeed desirable. ”
Nan Ming Zhenren: "The greater the wish, the more people who believe, the higher the mana will be." However, the greater the cause and effect owed. If you can't finish it, you will sink for life. Therefore, the shortcut of incense to become a god has always been regarded as a sideway. Even in Buddhism, it is not authentic. ”
"So what can I do to remedy this?"
Shang Bai was a little flustered.
At that time, it seemed that it was a little hasty to take this shortcut for the sake of power.
His goal is to transcend this realm and become holy, how can he accept such an outcome?
"Two ways," Nan Ming Zhenren stretched out two fingers, "The first way is to fulfill the promise made to sentient beings." ”
"This is impossible," Shang Bai shook his head and said, "Don't say that I, even if all the sect saints come out together, I don't have such ability." ”
After the great wishes made by some bodhisattvas in Buddhism are realized, they can become Buddhas on the spot, but Shang Bai does not have this possibility.
It's only to blame that the cowhide was blown too big back then.
However, if they don't brag about such a big bull, it is impossible to harvest so much faith power, and they may still be spending it on the outskirts of the Holy City of the Crescent Moon Continent and Kunde.
Shang Bai didn't regret the decision at that time, but he had quite a headache for the consequences of that decision.
Nan Ming is truly humane: "The second way is to cut out all the power of faith and let it bear the cause and effect." ”
"Cut out the power of faith?" Shang Bai was stunned, "How to cut it?"
Nan Mingzhen's head rose and said: "I am in the same vein as Xuandu, from the Taiqing sage, and I have inherited the method of beheading three corpses to become enlightened." If Tianzun has this intention, you can give it a try. ”
"Cutting off three corpses to become a Taoist?" Shang Bai's eyes lit up, "Such an exercise is still circulating in this realm?"
Daomen has always had the saying of beheading three corpses, which is ridiculous and vulgar, and it is not the method of beheading three corpses to become enlightened as said by Nanming Zhenren.
These three corpses refer to good, evil, and self.
If you cut out these three corpses, you can transcend this realm and achieve the position of a saint.
However, it is also a question whether the saints of the sects succeeded in cutting off the three corpses, and I only heard that the ancestor was the one who beheaded the three corpses and became enlightened.
It seems that so is the Taiqing saint.
With this kind of exercise, Shang Bai thought that the inheritance had been severed in this realm.
Because it is not an exercise that ordinary immortals can cultivate, if they don't reach the realm of Da Luo Jin Immortal, they don't even have the qualifications to behead three corpses.
And after the immortal realm was opened up back then, even the heavenly immortals in this realm could not exist, and it was meaningless to have this exercise.
Nanming Zhenren said that he had a method of beheading three corpses, which made Shang Bai surprised and delighted.
"Before the Xuandu Patriarch left this world, he left all the exercises and inheritances. "Nanming is really humane," maybe what happened to the patriarch back then should be today, and it should be on Tianzun. ”
If you cut out those power of faith as evil corpses, and all the cause and effect will be borne by the evil corpses, you don't have to worry about being entangled by cause and effect in the future, and you won't be able to get out of this realm.
"However, in this way, doesn't it mean that I owe Master Xuandu a favor again?" Shang Bai muttered inwardly.
Master Xuandu, that is the eldest disciple of the Taiqing Sage, is the famous Twelve Golden Immortals of the Teaching, and when they see him, they all have to call him a senior brother. If he left this exercise, he would naturally have a deep meaning.
But think about it, I was originally a person in the Daomen, and the exercises I practiced were all Daomen exercises, and it was better to owe the Daomen a favor than to owe the Buddha.
After figuring out this section, Shang Bai let go of his burden, followed the advice of Nanming Zhenren, and found the method of beheading three corpses from the Dharma Transmission Hall and began to study.
The Mixed Yuan Kendo technique could be called a top-level exercise in the Yunmeng Continent in the past, but compared to those super sects with the Golden Immortal Inheritance, it was nothing more than that.
Especially when he reaches the realm of heavenly immortals, he has no exercises to cultivate, and he has to learn from Ding Yingying's "Xuanyin Lu".
Ding Yingying's "Xuanyin Lu" belongs to the ghost cultivation method, although it has reached the realm of Da Luo Jinxian, but it is too different from the Xuanmen authenticity, and the significance of learning from it is not very big.
After the establishment of the Mixed Yuan Sect, which is composed of many sects, the inheritance of the exercises in the Dharma Transmission Hall has been enriched a lot, especially the addition of the Xuandu School, which has made the exercises all the way to the stage of Da Luo Jinxian, and even the opportunity for sanctification has been discussed a lot, making up for the lack of Mixed Yuan Kendo heritage.
One of the most important tasks of the elders of the Dharma Transmission Hall is to combine multiple lineages and deduce the orthodox exercises that are suitable for all the disciples of the Mixed Yuan Sect to practice.
Shang Bai also got involved.
In addition to studying the method of beheading three corpses every day, he also deduced the orthodox exercises of the Mixed Yuan Sect with the elders of the Dharma Transmission Hall. Although his own realm is only the triple level of heavenly immortals, he has integrated the true divine power of the Golden Immortal realm, and has the power of the Daluo Golden Immortal obtained by relying on the "Ascending Immortal Record", the realm advantage is there, and it is much easier to deduce the exercises than those elders.
At the same time, the construction of the new dojo is also in full swing.
Shang Bai just opened up the dojo with great mana, which is equivalent to building a rough embryo, and the meticulous work still has to be completed by those disciples of the sect.
The division of the inner gate and the outer gate, the completion of the mountain protection array and the two fine dust arrays, and the construction of the monk caves at all levels all require a lot of energy.
After more than a hundred years of construction, the new Mixed Yuan Sect Dojo was completed, with a rich aura and beautiful scenery, like a fairyland.
Shang Bai's purpose is to establish a small immortal realm in this realm.
During this time, the follow-up exercises of the Mixed Yuan Sect were also deduced to the Golden Immortal Realm, and for at least 10,000 years, the disciples in the sect did not have to worry about not having orthodox exercises to cultivate.
And some modifications have also been made to the exercises from practicing qi to returning to the realm of emptiness, which are much more subtle than the previous exercises of various sects.
This set of exercises is called the Mixed Yuan Creation Technique, which is the orthodox practice of the Mixed Yuan Sect, and new disciples must practice this kind of exercise.
Only when everyone practices the same exercises can the estrangement between the previous factions be eliminated.
There is a large square between the outer gates and peaks of the new dojo, which is large enough to accommodate millions of people, called the Dharma Transmission Square, where every ten years, Shang Bai will open an altar to give lectures, and all the disciples in the sect can observe.
And every fifty years, the Mixed Yuan Sect will invite fellow Taoists from various sects in the four states to come over and listen to Shang Bai's lecture on the authentic Taoism of Xuanmen in the Dharma Transmission Square.
This fifty-year-old Dharma Interpretation Conference, after several sessions, has become the most important event in the cultivation realm of the Jin, Yan, Yun, and Dragon continents.
