Chaner naturally followed Bai Xiaotian on the flying boat. After these days of recuperation, his body had fully recovered, but his spirit still looked a little unwell.
He had never told Shen Luo and the others the details of how he had helped Zhan Guo to resolve his emotional issues during those three days. In fact, in addition to chanting the Heart Purification Mantra, he had also debated with Zhan Guo, who was sometimes lucid.
Zhan Guo's attainments in Buddhism were more profound than he had imagined. Although Chan Er won the debate in the end, it was still a huge test for his mind.
Finally, Chaner was able to completely awaken Zhan Guo by constantly communicating with the relics left behind by his previous life and using the power contained in the relics.
"Mr. Bai, have you seen Zhan Guo again after that day?" Chaner asked suddenly while sitting cross-legged behind Bai Xiaotian.
"No, it is said that someone saw him going out of the city gate that day. Many people speculated that he returned to his homeland to atone his sins. Anyway, no one has seen him since that day." Bai Xiaotian said.
"What's wrong? Does Master Chaner have something else to talk to him about?" Shen Luo asked curiously.
"It's nothing, but after I enlightened him that day, I always felt that there were some Zen principles that were not explained clearly, and I couldn't help feeling a little unresolved in my heart." Zener said.
"Master Chaner, don't worry too much. It is said that on the day Zhan Guo left the city, he cleaned himself up and had a smile of relief on his face. It is obvious that you have helped him escape from the sea of suffering." Shen Luo comforted him.
Upon hearing this, Zener nodded and said nothing more.
The group quickly flew to the meeting place, and when they saw the tents stretching for dozens of miles in the desert, they all felt it was a spectacular sight.
The three men descended from a high altitude and came to an open area right in front of the venue. All the monks who had come here gathered there, neatly dressed and chanting scriptures silently.
Although Jiao Lianmi was a king, he was not standing in the venue at this moment. Instead, like ordinary believers, he set up a tent with overhanging eaves in front of the venue and sat in it with the queen and a group of princes.
Seeing Shen Luo and his group landing on the stage, Qi Lian Mi immediately waved at them with a smile on his face.
Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian also waved at him, while Chaner just raised his palm and saluted.
"The supreme, profound and subtle Dharma is hard to encounter in hundreds of thousands of kalpas. Now that I have seen and heard it, I have been able to receive and uphold it. I wish to understand the true meaning of the Tathagata." Zen Master Linda stood in front of the monks and started with "The Sutra of Infinite Life".
"Thus have I heard." The monks bowed together and spoke.
Tens of thousands of people gathered around and sat on the ground. The originally noisy sounds turned into silence.
"Please all of you come to the Dharma platform and prepare to preach." Zen Master Linda glanced at everyone and spoke.
As soon as he finished speaking, he flew up first and landed on a high altar in the center of the entire venue. He clasped his hands together and sat cross-legged on the lotus cushion.
Following closely behind, monks from Longtan, Baoshan and other Holy Lotus Altars also jumped up one after another. There were as many as sixteen of them, and they scattered and landed on the surrounding platforms.
"Master Chaner, are you ready?" Shen Luo asked in a low voice.
