Chapter 158: Contemplating the karma of being deluded, burning the body and seeing the detachment
On the Fangzheng Peak of Zhengyi Sanshan, the peak in front of the Patriarch's Hall seems to have been neatly cut off by a giant axe that opens the sky, and half of the surface has formed an extremely broad platform. 【Full text reading】The patriarch's hall of Zhengyimen faces south and backs north, is located in the middle of the mountain cliff behind it, such as a bright light, the side hall and the corridor on the east and west sides of the people, surround a huge square, this is the venue of the sect meeting, and it is also the place of the third day of the Zhengyi Sanshan Society.
The rising sun rises in the east, just over the bearing peak on the east side, and the ten thousand rays of light shine on the golden glazed tiles of the ancestral hall, reflecting the thousands of colored rays, staggered and shining in the sky above the square. Sitting on the Fangzheng Peak, the eyes are all around, the feet are surrounded by white clouds, the clouds are brilliant, it is really like a fairyland on earth, and you know the weather of the three caves in this place. More than 3,000 people gathered around the square on three sides and were not consciously crowded, and everyone looked at the raging black fire in the center of the square fifty zhang away, and with good eyesight, they could see that this strange flame was actually a token three inches long and two fingers wide from one side.
The token was a pure white color, but there were a few black lines in the center, like a rising wave, like a beating flame. This is the token of the head of Haitian Valley, and the Haitian Token is now hanging not far in front of me, and a few feet long roaring tongues of fire rise up within my reach. This fire is pure black, and it can't be dissolved, and it seems to have substance. It was only in the shape of a flame burning, but no light came out. Its name is "Bitter Sea Karma Fire".
The Haitian Token is a strange magic weapon, and if you don't reach the realm, you can't use it. If I fail to break through the fetal movement in the realm of my Dan Dao today, I will not be able to control the karmic fire of this bitter sea. As for the spell to control, it is a secret legend of Haitian Valley, if Yu Cangwu hadn't told me in advance, I wouldn't have played this trick. Yu Cangwu passed on to me in advance the secret "Bitter Sea Karmic Fire" spell of Haitian Valley, which is said to be the highest cultivation realm that Haitian Valley Dao needs to break through and face, and even Tan Sanxuan and Yu Cangwu's current cultivation cannot get a glimpse of the world after the bitter sea karmic fire. Of course, it is impossible for Yu Cangwu to tell me all the methods and formulas. He just told me how to use the Haitian Token to make the bitter sea karma fire, which is necessary for the inheritance ceremony of the head of Haitian Valley. It's not a good idea for me to be the head of the house, and I don't know at least one spell that I've never been exposed to before. When I cast the spell with the imperial weapon, I also thought about going back and using the Blue Mirror to try it out and see if I could cast it?
I am now wearing a silver crane immortal silk robe, and my feet are wearing dragon pattern golden lotus cloud boots, standing tall in the center of the square, and the bitter sea of karma is burning in the clouds, and it looks like I have a bit of immortal wind and dao bones, at least in the eyes of the younger disciples around me, and I am also the leader of the Tao. This outfit was sent to me by Hexi Zhenren last night. It also made me fill the scene at the Fa Acting Conference. Looking at it, although I am angry, the bitterness in my heart at this time is only known to myself - it is not easy to be in the limelight! It is not easy to take advantage of the cheapness!
Why? Because this sea of karmic fire is ignited with divine consciousness, but what burns is not supernatural power but the "bitter karma" of the world! In the divine consciousness, we make wishes and contemplate all the sufferings in the world—birth, old age, sickness, death, joys and sorrows, love, hatred, and hatred. And so on. Like clouds of smoke, it dissolves into a raging fire. If I hadn't cultivated the impure view of the four thoughts of Buddhism, I'm afraid it would have been difficult for me to master the Bitter Sea Karma Fire Land Spell so quickly. The first place of the four thoughts of Buddhism is "contemplating the impurity of the body", and the second place of receptivity is "contemplating suffering is suffering".
However, Haitian Valley is not a disciple of the Buddhist sect, nor is it a disciple of the Buddhist family. The magic of this sea of bitter karmic fire is not the same as the Buddhist doctrine of the noble truth of suffering, but there are similarities. As far as I know, there is also a saying of the Bitter Sea and Heavenly Tribulation in the Dan Dao. It is closer to the realm of the bitter sea karmic fire of Haitian Valley, but Haitian Valley is not a Taoist sect. Perhaps, when the world cultivates all the laws, there is a connection, and when the realm is high, you can always feel déjà vu. I stand here, it can be said that I am asking for "bitterness", but I want Lingtai Qingning not to feel confused with bitter thoughts. Because I still have to go through this ritual step by step. The first step of the ritual is "Transmission of Gong", the second step is "Dharma Protection", and the third step is "Acceptance".
The wonderful use of the Haitian Token is that no matter whether the disciple's cultivation realm has reached or not, as long as he has learned the way of the imperial weapon, and then according to the secret mantra of the earth's heart, he can use it to get a glimpse of the bitter sea karma fire. Otherwise. If the master had left earlier, the next generation of disciples had not had time to learn the Dao Dharma, and the realm of the sea of karma and fire would not have been lost? With my current cultivation, I am afraid that I will not be able to cast this kind of spell without this token. The ritual of transmitting the gong is very simple, that is, to use the token to cast the bitter sea karmic fire, so that Yu Cangwu, who knelt in front of me, took a look. Theoretically, that's enough, but a few more words from the point of view of the scene.
"What do you see between the sea and the sky?"
Yu Cangwu: "The world is vast and dusty. ”
"What do people see in the world?"
Yu Cangwu: "Life is more than suffering reincarnation. ”
When I asked this, I also felt strange in my heart: This Haitian Valley is like a Buddha, not a Buddha, but not a Tao, which kind of earth method is it? If I have a question in my heart, I have to continue to ask: "What is the behavior of the cultivation in the world?"
Yu Cangwu: "The knowledge of the knowledge is separated from it." ”
I pretended to nod my head: "That's feasible." I, Ishino, holding the Haitian token, temporarily took the position of the head of Haitian, entrusted by Tan Sanxuan, the head of the nineteenth generation, and was located in the twentieth generation of disciple Yu Cangwu. The same door, the same way, the same learning. ”
As he spoke, he gritted his teeth and waved his hand violently, and suddenly there was an exclamation from the silent venue. I saw that the black flame suddenly expanded and swayed, and burned straight upwards for dozens of zhang at a height, and the bottom of the color was still like thick ink, but the sky was already like a light mist. And the Haitian token is wrapped in flames and is no longer visible. Why should I grit my teeth? It's not easy to perform this kind of kung fu, but I'm even more like Cangwu pinching a handful of sweat, and the next ritual "Dharma Protector" is too spoofed, isn't it? I can't help it, but I can't do it, but I can only ask, "Do you accept it?"
Yu Cangwu: "Accept it." ”
I waved my hand again, and the flames flew out and landed on the ground, enveloping the whole body of Cangwu. I can feel that this sea of suffering, the karmic fire, has no temperature, and it is the condensation of ten thousand bitter thoughts. But I don't know what it's like to burn on people? Although I made such a big scene, after all, I just used the Haitian token to trick it out, and I didn't have the power of the real bitter sea karmic fire, but Yu Cangwu was wrapped in it, I'm afraid it didn't feel good, right?
I looked at the black flames enveloping Yu Cangwu, and there was only a vaguely kneeling figure, and I asked, "Do you know?"
I would have liked to have ended the Q&A quickly. Let Yu Cangwu kneel for a while in the bitter sea of karma and fire, and quickly completed this ceremony. However, Yu Cangwu's answer at this time was much shorter than before: "Although the disciple travels in the world deliberately for suffering, he does not know that suffering is suffering and thinks that he is happy, and today he realizes that the obstacle has not been removed." ...... If you have a supernatural power, you only look at people but have no burning heart, how can you know the suffering of the world? If you suffer it but don't know it, you can't leave it. ...... I want the thief to accept it, but he can't leave it. With the suffering of his body, he added to the world after all, and there was no recovery. ...... Suffering from the sea karma fire to see the realm of detachment, thank you!"
Damn! Yu Cangwu actually knelt in the fire and began to realize the Tao, this is not necessarily a breakthrough in cultivation. It's a kind of realm elevation, and that's the feeling I've had. Speaking of it, his cultivation should be above me, and I burned him to understand it, and I also vaguely felt it. I didn't have to think about it and asked, "Is it leaving?"
Yu Cangwu: "I haven't left it." Peek into the realm of separation. ”
"Resolved?"
Yu Cangwu: "I wish to turn it in." ”
I finally breathed a sigh of relief and raised my hand and said, "Today's Dharma transmission seat is for you to protect and inherit. After finishing speaking, he collected his divine thoughts and no longer used the weapon. But the black fire was not extinguished.
Yu Cangwu bowed to the ground three times and held the sky with both hands. I saw that the palm of his hand also shone like a flame, and this light was different from the karmic fire of the bitter sea, it was white! The white millilight was like a coating, rising upwards along the surface of the flame until it reached a height of several tens of zhang in the air, completely enveloping the black fire in it. At this time, if you look at it from a distance, the scene is very vast and magnificent! The black flames that rose into the sky scattered bright white light in all directions.
The white light gradually rose and condensed, enveloping the black flame, and the black flame gradually stopped beating, as if it was condensed in the air. Then I heard Yu Cangwu shout: "The sea and the sky are swallowed." What is immortal!" I saw that the white light wrapped in black flames began to shrink sharply, until Yu Cangwu's palms were missing, and what he was holding in front of his forehead was the Haitian token!
At this point, the "Dharma Protector" ceremony was completed, and the tip of my nose was already sweating slightly, and I was secretly relieved. On the one hand, it was very exhausting to manipulate the Haitian Token, and on the other hand, for some reason, when Yu Cangwu knelt in the fire, I also seemed to be using all my strength to fight against the raging black flames. At this time, there was a burst of warm applause from the sidelines, and then it stopped abruptly.
Most of this applause came out of the junior disciples of various sects, who had been practicing in the world for a long time, and occasionally saw such a big scene, and they didn't react for a while. Yu Cangwu and I were present at the succession ceremony, and what we saw in the world was a huge magic show! People couldn't stop applauding and cheering, and they were immediately stopped by the elders in the door. No longer applauded and applauded, but there are still many people whispering, some are boasting about Cangwu, and more are praising my land - Shi Xiaozhenren's cultivation is unfathomable and worthy of his reputation. This is the first time I've shown my cultivation in front of everyone, and I've reached the limit, but it still looks very easy.
The succession ceremony is not yet over, and there is still one last step to "accept". I used my dantian qi to cover the audience with a very loud but not deafening voice and asked, "Do you know if you have accepted the sea and sky valley?"
Yu Cangwu replied in the same voice: "Lead the disciples to accept it...... The first rule of the 28 rules of Haitian ...... "Next, Yu Cangwu respectfully recited the 28 rules of the Haitian Valley. This is the first time I have heard of the detailed rules of a sect in its entirety, and it is indeed rigorous and complex, and many of the precepts have been heard sporadically before, but there is no such system as it is today. Most of the rules of the various sects are similar, but Yu Cangwu recited them with such a serious attitude in this voice on this occasion, as if with a kind of percussion-like power, which makes the precepts themselves add a solemn and sacred color.
After reciting the twenty-eight door rules, Yu Cangwu's voice was high, and he actually used his magical power in his voice, reciting the three major precepts that the world's cultivation circles abide by, and finally said: "The rules of the sea and the sky, the precepts of cultivation, are in Cangwu, and the Haitian Valley guards and supervises the world, and the same way holds them together." ”
I stepped aside at this time: "Yu Cangwu, please get up and worship!"
Yu Cangwu stood up. Holding the Haitian Token in his hand, he stood where I was just now, turned around and stood with his chest straight to the south. There were not many people coming from Haitian Valley this time, except for Yu Cangwu, there were only two disciples, and these two disciples had been kneeling not far behind Cangwu just now. At this time, he got up and took a few steps forward and bowed to the ground again: "The disciples of Haitian Valley welcome the twenty-generation head to ascend to the throne!"
Such a big scene. There were only two disciples, and Bai He seemed to be a little cold. But don't forget, there are more than 3,000 people around, and as soon as the voices of these two people fell, a thunderous sound sounded on Fangzheng Peak: "Congratulations to Yu Cangwu on succeeding as the head of Haitian Valley!"
Shouzheng Zhenren took the lead and got up from his seat, and everyone, including me in the audience, bowed his hand and said this. The three thousand people spoke as if they had been rehearsed many times beforehand, and at the same time they spoke in a neat manner. Everyone's voices were very loud, and the three thousand people said a word in unison, and on this peak, of course, it was like rolling thunder, and even the clouds in the sky trembled! This succession ceremony is also officially completed. Next, Shouzheng Zhenren walked out for the heads of various factions, and went down to congratulate Yu Cangwu in front of Yu Cangwu, and led the two junior brothers to stand there and return the salute one by one. It was lively for a long time before everyone returned to this seat.
I saw Qiye also walk up to Yu Cangwu to congratulate, although the expression was very respectful, but the expression was a little indescribably strange. I know what he's thinking—in recent years, he is the only person in the world who has started a sect, and the new head of the sect is only him and Yu Cangwu. When the seven leaves of the Hainan Legislature ascended the throne. Although there were also some representatives of the sect who came to watch the ceremony, compared to today's scene, it can be regarded as a small black and a big black view. If Qiye can also put the Hainan Legislature in the Zhengyi Sanshan Meeting, how much influence will it have in the world's cultivation world? It's a pity that he doesn't have this opportunity. Fortunately, the third scene of the Dharma Acting Conference was his discussion and fight with Feng Junzi, otherwise his "first in the world" would have been completely covered by Yu Cangwu, the "second in the world".
The first session of the Dharma Exercise Conference ended. I also returned to my seat and finally took off the identity of the "acting head" of Haitian Valley. Of course, it is impossible to put too many stools around the performance conference, and only a very small number of seniors, masters, and heads of various factions have seats. I didn't have a seat. However, because I was going to appear at the Dharma Performance, which was also a symbol of dignity, I was specially arranged for a chair to sit in the east corridor of the venue. Liu Yiyi and Han Ziying stood behind me. And the Xuanyuan faction on my right hand only sat in front of the ordinary master, and Dan Xiasheng and his wife, Wuwei Chang and the others could only stand.
There are only three sides of the venue, and the north side is the entrance to the mountain, that is, the high earth, where the Huangshi archway is located, and there are no people standing. Most of the world's practitioners observe the worship under the cornices and corridors on the east and west sides, and the Buddhist sects or the sects related to the practice of Buddhism sit on the west side. Taoism and related sects sit on the east side, and some worldly spiritual sects that do not distinguish between Buddhism and Taoism are interspersed among them. In the middle of the front of the venue, there are two rows of rosewood Taishi chairs on the white marble platform in front of the Patriarch's Hall. The row at the back was empty, no one sat down, a total of 12 sheets, it is said that it is a symbol, it is reserved for the unknown and unreached masters in the world, and the people present dare not sit.
There are three chairs in the first row, and three people sit on them. Sitting in the middle is a real person. Behind him stood two young Taoist children with a fairy aura between their eyebrows, one holding golden Buddha dust, and the other holding a one-foot-high sheep fat jade net bottle. On his right, the west seat, sits the living Buddha of Guangjiao Temple, Geju Jizan. Behind him stood two red-robed monks with their right shoulders exposed, their skin faintly golden in the sun, showing the solemnity of the treasure, one holding the prayer and the other holding the vajra demon pestle.
On the seat to the left of Shouzheng Zhenren, that is, to the east, sat a young man wearing a mask of seven stars, although he was wearing a mask, he could also see that the person would definitely not be twenty years old, of course, he was a gentleman of the wind. There are also two "fairy children" standing behind Fengjun, the loveless son, but a discerning person can see that it is a little snake demon and a little flower spirit, and on this occasion, the goblin is on stage, somewhat regardless of whether it is the same or not, but no one dares to laugh. Guoguo is holding a black Ruyi, looking very cute and likable, and Ah You is holding a purple clay pot with a big bowl in his hand, and looking around with black eyes, it looks even more indifferent.
The high-ranking people have regained their seats outside the venue, and there are seats in Cangwu. Shouzheng Zhenren walked out from the east side and walked to the high platform in the middle, first saluted the three "elders", and then bowed to everyone outside the venue: "The head of Haitian Valley passed on the throne of the avenue to practice and protect some people, and some people thought it was a grand event that had not been seen for many years. It is even more rare to appear today, and the two of them have great magic and great merit in the world. ...... Haitian Valley's wholehearted protection of the Dao Stone is a real person who is thousands of miles away from demons......"
He Xi Zhenren praised Haitian Valley and me in front of the world's cultivators, Yu Cangwu just brought a few words, mainly to praise Tan Sanxuan and me, especially I, Shi Ye. This is white and chubby, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows are not smiling, but his eloquence is excellent. A high hat was sent up, only to lift me to the clouds, it is typical to have camels, not to mention horses. Of course, his main purpose is not entirely to praise, but to talk about the words and deeds that a practitioner should cultivate on such occasions. The significance of the extension is very great, and it is almost waved between heaven and earth, materialization and Tao turning. Finally, of course, I did not forget to say that I practiced the three major precepts, and then thanked all the colleagues present for the responsibility of guarding the path, as if I had done this, and the colleagues in the world had a lot of face.
After He Xi Zhenren finished his grand speech, he finally transitioned to another important topic, and he bowed again: "Fellow cultivators, respected elders and masters of various sects, who do you think should be recommended to perform the Fa again for the world's fellow practitioners?"
None of the factions answered, but they all looked to the stage. There are a total of three Dharma performance conferences, the first one has ended, and the third one has long been decided, it is the Wind Gentleman and the Seven Leaves Discussing the Dao Fighting Method, and now everyone is looking at the upright and real people.
It is a thousand-year-old Taoist system that guards the prestige of a hundred years. Now, at this Three Mountains Conference, if you don't see Shouzheng Zhenren personally demonstrating the Dao Fa and supernatural powers, it is like a banquet without a main course, lacking the real taste. Shouzheng vaguely has the prestige of the first person in the world, and the four-inch thunder sword on the hairpin is said to be the first artifact in the world, but I am afraid that few people in the world have seen him use it with their own eyes. Shou Zheng, who was sitting on the stage, looked at him when no one spoke, and he knew what it meant.
Before Shouzheng Zhenren could speak, the Geju Jizan Living Buddha on the right hand had already spoken: "Senior Brother Shouzheng, even the old monk has not seen with his own eyes how the legendary Shenxiao Heavenly Thunder has changed under the Thunder God Sword? Today, not only the world's peers are curious, but even I, a hundred-year-old monk, are also very curious. ”
Shouzheng said with a smile: "The Buddha's cultivation is as early as the abyss, the sea has thousands of wild waves, and his heart is not moved by curiosity, is it not because he is curious?...... The original intention of the Dharma performance conference was to demonstrate the wonderful realm of cultivation by honoring the elders, so as to break the disciples' doubts about the teacher, the Dharma, and the self. How can I be interesting alone, since the Buddha has spoken, how about you and I evolve into each other?"
The expression of the living Buddha was neither modest nor arrogant, and his tone was neither polite nor rude, but replied calmly and calmly: "The old monk has this intention. ”
Shouzheng nodded: "Okay, our two old guys will show up." ”
After saying this, the upright real person didn't say much, stretched out his finger upward, and drew a few lines in the air in front of him. Everyone was puzzled, and they didn't understand it for a long time. I suddenly felt that the light on the top of Fangzheng Peak was wrong, as if there was an infinite mana gathering, and suddenly I looked up, and the sky changed! There was a floating cloud covering the sun that had risen, I don't know how far away, and above the canopy of the three mountains, with the gesture of the real person, golden curves appeared—the real person pointed out that he could actually "write" in the sky.
I have seen the Wind Gentleman cast such a spell as a circle into a mirror, when he was just facing a wall. And Shouzheng was able to write the words to the sky! Looking at the golden curves in the sky, it was not that the handwriting came out intermittently, and I don't know what shape it was, like some strange symbols. One person looked up, and then someone looked up, and everybody saw it. Everyone let out a suppressed exclamation, no one shouted loudly, and the golden symbol in the sky invisibly had an overwhelming divine might.
