Fang Yanying held the sword, the five-color halo was flowing, and he raised it high. With just one slash, Shanjue's head fell down in response to the sword.
It's just that the head that flew out from the neck spun around and flew back to Shanjue's headless body. It was perfectly integrated and there was no trace of the head being chopped off.
Fang Yanying was suddenly shocked. He didn't expect that this person's cultivation was so high. You must know that the head is the leader of the six yangs. Once it is severed, the person will definitely die. However, Shanjue's cultivation is so high that he can restore his position after being decapitated. It cannot be seen that Not the slightest bit different.
Even the head can be put back on, but cutting off the rest of the limbs will be useless.
Shanjue laughed loudly and said, "Taoist Master Shen, it's up to you to take action. I am a poor monk in the world, and I don't want to be a coward and go through reincarnation again."
Fang Yanying looked back and saw that it was Shen Lian. Her uncle just chuckled. She held the sword and slashed again, cutting off the man's head and then picking it up again.
However, as the number of beheadings increased, the flesh and blood of Shanjue's head and body dried up more and more. Fang Yanying did not know how many times he was beheaded. Finally, Shanjue sat cross-legged on the ground, his whole body was like gold, and only the bones were visible. And the skin, a faint golden light emerged from it, and an equally golden skull was planted next to it, silent and motionless.
Fang Yanying then sheathed his sword and walked towards his uncle. Shen Lian blew a breath when he saw this. The golden body immediately turned into powder and merged into the underworld. Finally, spring water gush out and gathered into a small lake, golden. The powder is mixed with the underworld, turning into golden sand and mud. A lotus grows from the lake, swaying, quiet and peaceful, revealing a distant Zen feeling.
Shen Lian said softly: "Killing him, what difference will you feel in your heart?"
Fang Yanying cupped his hands to his uncle and said, "It's no different."
Shen Lian looked approving and said slowly: "As long as they exist, they can be eliminated, even the Immortal Immortal and the Golden Arhat. The higher the cultivation level, the more cautious you must be, but you must not lose the spirit of bravery and diligence, just like The inner state of rowing against the current in the rapids needs to be carefully understood. It is precisely because of too much effort that Shanjue suffered today. He died in your hands and died in my hands. In fact, there is no difference. It is just the way of heaven. We waited for him and took advantage of the situation. In fact, I asked him to put forward conditions to find a way out, with the intention of opening up the door, but he still wanted to make plans. It can be said that the last hope of survival was wiped out, and the practice of two lifetimes was in vain. Cake, what a pity.”
Fang Yanying said: "As my uncle said, good enlightenment is a two-life practice. Doesn't it mean that it is more difficult to reincarnate and realize immortality? Isn't he also a genius?"
Shen Lian smiled and said: "In the past three thousand years of Qingxuan, the only person who has achieved immortality twice is my master Zi Ling Fairy. Therefore, it is extremely difficult to achieve immortality twice. It is definitely not a lie, but this is not very true in Buddhism. It is applicable. They have their own secret method of reincarnation. They can come back again with their cultivation. The fruits of so many lifetimes are gathered into one body. Finally, they break through the shackles with great magic power and achieve Arhat and Bodhisattva. On this point, it is really remarkable. Better than anyone in my Xuanmen."
Fang Yanying said thoughtfully: "So, the most wonderful method of Buddhism is better than that of Taoism?"
Shen Lian said: "What an idiot. The great road is there. Although there is no distinction between those who have achieved it, I am afraid of long nights and many dreams. It may be easy to achieve the golden body Arhat, but for the Bodhisattva status, thousands of lifetimes of practice may not be enough to linger in the human world. , Right and wrong are born in Jambu, and the karma is in Jambu. The longer the time goes, the more dangers will be encountered. One mistake will be the fate of Rushanjue today. "
He paused and then said: "There has always been a saying in Buddhism that a good man can become a Buddha if he lives for countless kalpas. However, who can guarantee that nothing will happen during the endless kalpas and such a long time? Therefore, people of our generation , Just cultivate this life without seeking the next life, and you will be able to enjoy it as if you were walking on thin ice. "
When Shen Lian said that he was rising, he moved his hands and feet, revealing a hand with white bones. Not only did it not look ghostly, but it still felt a bit indescribably free and easy.
Fang Yanying was a little sad and said, "Uncle, can your hand still be well?"
Shen Lian said calmly: "There is a tree named Whirlpool, which bears longevity fruit. As long as I find the Whirlpool tree and witness its subtlety, I will be considered a small success. It will be easy to restore this hand. Then I can also see Chen Beidou. , it’s a showdown.”
Fang Yanying said: "Then are we still exploring this underworld?"
Shen Lian said leisurely: "Even if there is a Taoist intention left behind by True Lord Xuantan, I don't want to think too much about it now. Let's just take a handful of Netherworld and leave."
Fang Yanying looked at the lake and a lotus in it again. It was obviously an extremely precious thing. After all, it was transformed into the golden body of an Arhat. It was clear that the uncle's intention was not to give up.
She vaguely felt that the golden lake left behind by her uncle must have a deep meaning, but she couldn't understand it. She wanted to ask, but she felt that she was inferior, so she didn't say anything.
Shen Lian used his skeletal hands to grab a handful of Hades Earth. Black smoke immediately erupted, and even a section of bone melted. However, he looked slightly satisfied. It was not that he had absorbed the power of Hades Earth, but that he had tried the method with his own body and understood its wonders. Truth, the understanding of earth has deepened. The earth of the underworld hides death and contains the filth. It can be said to be virtuous. The same land as the pure land breeds new life. In the eyes of heaven, there is no distinction between superiority and inferiority. Just as the best is like water, water lives under all things and is close to the Tao. .
Understanding the meaning, not long after, Shen Lian held up the copper coffin and the heart lamp. With a wave of his sleeves, the heart lamp shone brightly, drawing a long bridge in the void, and Shi Shiran took Fang Yanying out of the underworld.
When they arrived outside, the Snowy Mountains had disappeared, and only a huge whirlpool could be seen. It was slowly turning, swallowing up the surrounding wasteland, and expanding continuously. Shen Lian pondered for a while and said: "The Pure Land Sect is not far from here. The rest will be left to you." They're here to clean up the mess."
Not long after Shen Lian and Fang Yanying left, two auspicious clouds flew over, with a monk standing on each of them. His face was full of the moon, his eyes were like lotus flowers, the monk's clothes were fluttering, and his grace was beyond description. Only the appearance of the two monks was indescribable. Speaking in the human world, I am afraid it can attract countless female believers and also make male believers feel good.
The Buddhist sect has always built magnificent temples to shock the world, and sent monks with solemn treasures to save all living beings. The two monks have enough treasures to save the world before they can walk in the world. Therefore, they were the first to arrive after discovering something strange.
One of the monks said: "There is actually a land of the underworld under the Snowy Mountains. It's unexpected."
Another monk said: "No wonder Monk Shanjue came to Randen Temple. It turns out that there is such a secret hidden. If there are monsters in the underworld, we will do a lot of merit after suppressing them. We can also use this to evolve the hell realm and create achievements." Little reincarnation, it seems that God wants to establish our Pure Land Sect.”
"That's good, that's good, but there must be a reason for the disappearance of the Snowy Mountains and the appearance of the Underworld. We'd better inform the Zen Master first."
"good."
