At the end of the conference, a young and handsome monk named Hongyuan stood up. One has to know that most of the third-level transcendents, no matter how unknown they are, at least have a certain fame in this small circle. And this Hongyuan seemed to have appeared out of nowhere and suddenly stood at this conference, causing many people to whisper to each other and ask who this person is.
"My Buddhist name is Hongyuan. I have come from afar today to show you my Buddhist Dharma!"
After this good-looking monk bowed, tremendous power burst out from his whole body. Layers of forbidden spiritual light spread out, and his whole body turned golden.
He was wearing a cassock and instantly looked like an arhat descended to the world.
But the whole audience was in an uproar at once, and everyone looked at the monk named Hongyuan with their mouths wide open.
"This? Why is this power filled with the flavor of incense and vows?" Zhang Heming frowned and looked at the monk on the stage.
"The power of faith, my God! He can actually use the power of faith to practice? How is this possible?" Alchemist John Vogel attached great importance to this aspect and immediately saw through the essence of this power.
"What's going on?" A question mark suddenly popped up in everyone's mind.
Fang Xiu looked at this man, a silver light flashed in his eyes, and a smile appeared on his face instantly: "It's quite interesting!"
Monk Hongyuan immediately put his hands together, gathered his strength, and chanted the Buddha's name.
"I call this supreme method the Golden Body Method of Buddhism."
Later, at the conference on Taoism, he proposed the method of cultivating the Golden Body of Buddhism, which not only drew on the methods of martial arts, magic, and immortality, but also used the method of refining tools with incense by the alchemist Lu Zhou.
He advocated that the body is like a boat in the sea of suffering and can be used as a magic weapon for sacrifice and refinement. The body can be refined with the method of incense and fire, and the human body can be refined bit by bit into a golden body of Buddhism.
The disadvantage of incense being poisonous and invading the soul was avoided in this way.
Focus on cultivating the Golden Body of Buddhism, and separate it from the soul, and only treat the physical body as a magic weapon to be sacrificed.
As long as the incense and vows are sufficient, they can ignore their aptitude and even the speed of practice, and instantly advance from the innate level to the first, second, and third levels. Originally, even a genius would need nearly two hundred years of practice to reach this level. As long as the incense and vows are continuous, they can succeed in just a few decades, several years, or even faster.
Jia Yi angrily denounced the Buddhist golden body as an evil practice on the spot, saying that what was the point of refining the physical body alone, and it could not lead to immortality.
Moreover, after the physical body was transformed into the Golden Body of Buddhism, even the path to immortality was directly cut off. The method of practicing the Golden Body of Buddhism is indeed a different way and it makes people feel amazing, but when you think about it carefully, the disadvantages and the consequences are so great that it is also frightening.
However, Monk Hongyuan said that he had a way to solve this problem, but he could not say it here. He claimed that his method was a supreme method that led directly to the great way.
Monk Hongyuan even said that the key point of this method was the last bit of inspiration he sought after traveling thousands of miles to visit Master Tang Li at the Shangxian Academy in Dongzhou. When he said this, he clasped his hands together and bowed to Fengdu. Fang Xiu showed a playful smile on his face and nodded.
The monk finally declared that if there was anyone willing to join Buddhism, he would be willing to share this supreme method with them and practice Buddhism together.
It seems that this was a long-planned move by the Buddhist sect, and it was not a conspiracy. Instead, the sect wanted to use this conference to spread its own ideas and methods and attract more like-minded people.
At this point, the second day's discussion conference finally ended with the breaking news of the Buddha's birth.
When almost everyone left, they were discussing the Buddhist golden body method that Monk Hongyuan had mentioned, and what he said at the end, that he had found a way to solve the drawbacks of the Buddhist golden body, and that this method directly pointed to the great way, was it true or false.
On this day, after listening to the discussions of the third-level extraordinary people about the path to transcendence, even many of them gained a lot.
It was not until today that everyone knew that there are so many geniuses in this world. There are always some people who can open up all kinds of extremely mysterious and extraordinary paths, either by relying on themselves or external things, and many of them combine the strengths of various schools.
Fengdu and Jia Yi were still guests in the Sanyang Temple Taoist Palace, discussing with Zhang Heming the many cultivation methods during the day. After all, tomorrow would be their turn to talk about the fourth level and the path to immortality. Although Zhang Heming was not at the fourth level, he had failed in his attempt to reach the fourth level, so his experience could be more useful for reference.
Of course, none of them would explain their respective key methods of cultivation. Just like those third-level cultivators who performed on the stage, although they explained some principles, no one could tell them how to actually practice.
If you really think that this is the full strength of others, and you make reckless guesses or schemes against others, you are simply courting death. Or if you want to rely on this little insight to deduce the method, then the difficulty is not much different from starting over.
This Taoist palace is very grand and covers a vast area. There are service staff arranged by the organizers walking around inside. The waitresses are all wearing ancient-style skirts and light up the lights in the Taoist palace.
Several girls who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old came up carrying a purple-gold beast incense burner and carefully lit the incense inside. Several screens made by famous artists were pushed out, making this gathering of the three people seem more ancient.
From the various arrangements to the wine vessels, exquisite snacks and atmosphere, everything has been carefully created.
These waiters were all doing their work silently, and they were not like the people outside who would curiously look at Fang Xiu and other extraordinary people who were very unique in both temperament and appearance.
Then Zhang Heming waved his hand and asked someone to serve the good wine that Fang Xiu had always been thinking about. However, Fang Xiu looked at the purple-gold beast incense burner on the side, sniffed it, and immediately said.
"I heard that Lingyanxiang is obtained from a strange beast in the North Sea. It can cleanse the impurities in the soul and improve the aptitude of a person's cultivation. I didn't expect to see it here. It seems that this thing is only used frequently in the Nether Palace."
After hearing this, Jia Yi was amazed: "You Palace is indeed the residence of immortals. Such treasures can be easily seen. I have only heard about it, but I didn't expect that Zhang Heming, you are so generous to host this discussion conference and be willing to give away such things."
Zhang Heming quickly shook his head: "This is provided by the government. Haha, I can also be considered to have enriched myself. This is just right for me to enjoy myself."
"But today is really an eye-opener. Various paths are flowing before my eyes. The cultivators are like a hundred flowers blooming and a hundred schools of thought contending. In addition to your Dharma Path of Fengdu, Jia Yi's way of swallowing clouds and refining Qi into the five elements, and Qingyang's way of tools, there are also martial arts, primordial spirits, ancestral spirits, and yang spirits, all of which lead directly to immortality."
Zhang Heming sighed deeply, the Luotian whisk in his hand was covered with thousands of silver threads, constantly flowing with spiritual light.
Jia Yi was extremely arrogant, and he thought that the paths taken by several of these people were evil, and he sneered at them in his words.
Fang Xiu knew that Jia Yi was talking about the monk Hongyuan from the daytime.
In the past, there were not many monks among the extraordinary people in the East. Taoists basically occupied the majority, and the rest were all martial artists. Because among the first batch of extraordinary people, most of them were immortals and belonged to Taoism, so among the extraordinary people in the world today, the most people imitate them or learn their inheritance. For example, the inheritance of Fengdu's spiritualism and illusion is now owned by everyone among the low-level extraordinary people.
Those who came later basically followed the path of demons, and then either switched to martial arts, or took some unorthodox paths.
In addition, these Buddhists had basically not been able to grab a few spots to enter the Mountain and Sea Realm before, and after entering, there was no Buddhist inheritance, so this monk was rarely seen in the Mountain and Sea Realm.
Fang Xiu: "I feel that the Buddhist method of using the golden body of Buddhism is quite amazing. Monk Hongyuan really found a new way to come up with such a path."
"If it can really solve the drawbacks of the Buddhist golden body and achieve immortality, it is truly a supreme method."
