"Change?"
Du'e was stunned for a moment, then he understood what the precepts Feng Qingyang was talking about.
"If you enter my Buddhist sect, you must cut off your seven emotions and six desires."
"What if not?"
Feng Qingyang was silent for a moment, feeling a chill in his heart. As the saying goes, wine and meat pass through the intestines, but Buddha remains in the heart. As long as there is Buddha in the heart, why bother to follow those rules and regulations
"If not, then you have no chance to be with me!"
"Buddha's way, Buddha's way, Buddha is the way, Du'e, have you ever heard that wine and meat pass through the intestines, but Buddha remains in the heart?"
As he spoke, Feng Qingyang told an anecdote. This anecdote was about the famous monk Ji Dian in history. He was a drunkard, but he called himself a monk. He was not only close to women, but also full of nonsense. However, despite this, his heart was devoted to Buddhism. He eventually achieved great success in his cultivation and became the supreme Buddhist!
"Ji Dian?" Du'e clasped his hands together, his heart slightly shaken. Nowadays, unlike the Middle Ages, Buddhism and Taoism have long been lost in the dust of history. It would be extremely difficult to find someone to inherit Buddhism!
What's more, as long as you have Buddha in your heart, you are Buddha. In this case, why not take a step back and see the bigger picture
"Du'e, have you ever thought that the reason why Buddhism disappeared is not because it lost the protection of the Holy Buddha, but because of its rules and precepts?"
"Buddhism punishes evil and promotes good, and is about saving all living beings, but its precepts clearly state that we must cut off our seven emotions and six desires. If this is the case, then isn't this in conflict with its beliefs?"
Feng Qingyang spoke repeatedly, like a string of cannonballs, and every word struck deeply at this mysterious monk. Perhaps it was because he had been lonely for too long, or perhaps it was because of the erosion of time that his heart seemed to have changed!
"Yes, as long as you have the Buddha in your heart, you are the Buddha!"
As he said this, the black robe on his body suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a golden cassock, and a Zen staff appeared in his hand with a whoosh.
If he had a hint of confusion on his face before, then at this moment, he became more enlightened. His aura began to change, appearing somewhat otherworldly, with a sense of seeing the bright moon after the dark clouds have been cleared away.
A ray of brilliant light came from the void, and countless Buddhist chants were heard. No one knew where the source came from, but it seemed like the joy brought down for someone's sudden enlightenment.
The sky was filled with shining Buddha's light, and vaguely one could see the shadows of countless Bodhisattvas and Arhats appearing in the void, some standing on lotus flowers, and some sitting on mythical beasts.
"Amituofu!"
Du'e was seen with his eyes open, the Buddha's power on his body became even stronger. The way of heaven had changed, and there was no Buddhism, but the remaining power of Buddhism that had long disappeared in history was slowly gathering.
Half a day passed, when the singing and praising was nearing its end, a pillar of light descended from the sky. This pillar of light was no longer among the three thousand avenues. It seemed to have opened up a new avenue with its own beliefs - the Buddhist avenue!
"Congratulations to Du'e for reshaping our Buddhist teachings!"
Feng Qingyang stepped forward with a hint of excitement on his face. He didn't know what this light was, but relying on his intuition, he knew that at this moment, he had truly crossed the sea of suffering and reached the other shore!
He originally had the cultivation base of the Dao Transformation Realm, and now that he has broken through, I'm afraid he has already reached the level of a Saint!
Sure enough, just as he was thinking, the void shattered, and eight projections came through the void. These eight projections were shrouded in chaos. It was not that they did it intentionally, but because their cultivation had reached that level, even if you wanted to see, you couldn't see.
"They are... the current Holy Lord!"
Feng Qingyang exclaimed in shock, and his heart couldn't stop beating. These eight people were the most powerful saints in the spiritual world. They were in harmony with the way of heaven and controlled the universe. No matter whether they were in charge of the world or sealing the world, they were all supreme.
"The ninth one in the end times of recent antiquity, the Tao is complete!"
There was a vibration in the void. At this moment, a feeling of joy descended from the sky. The sound of the Ninth Lord that resounded through the void spread throughout the universe and was transmitted to various cultivation stars in the palm world and the sealed world.
Countless people looked up and looked at the bright light in the sky. Although they didn't know what was happening at this moment, they had an extra feeling in their hearts, as if it was a gift from the Great Dao. It was a kind of understanding.
At this moment, countless people broke through their own shackles, and the whole world celebrated!
The whole world celebrates! The Ninth Saint of the Spirit World has finally appeared. From now on, the Heavenly Dao will be complete, but the great calamity will come faster! Amidst the celebration, there is even more great sorrow!
"The ninth one!"
In the Ghost King Sect of the Spirit Realm, the Ghost King stood beside the Six Paths of Reincarnation, looking up at the golden clouds in the sky and the looming shadows of Buddha and Taoism. He thought to himself that after all, he was not someone who could achieve the status of a Saint!
Apart from other cultivators, countless Dao Transformation Realm masters, especially those at the peak of the Dao Transformation Realm, felt disheartened. The appearance of the Ninth Master meant that they would never be able to break through again.
In the spiritual world, there can only be nine Holy Lords. It has been like this since ancient times. No one knows what will happen if a tenth one appears. It is simply unimaginable!
On the ancient star of Mars, in the far north, Feng Qingyang stood beside Du'e, watching him being gradually submerged by the golden light. Suddenly, a lot of thoughts came to his mind. He accidentally enlightened a powerful man and allowed him to reach a higher level. This level is the position that all the creatures in the spiritual world want to achieve!
"Greetings, fellow brothers!"
Du'e slowly rose into the air, and a ninth-grade golden lotus seat appeared out of thin air under his feet. It was dazzling all over, and against the backdrop of the golden light, it looked extremely majestic. Its brilliance spread all over the world, and it even made Feng Qingyang feel as if he had put down his butcher knife and become a Buddha on the spot.
“Congratulations to Du’e for achieving the ninth position of Saint Venerable. Following the Middle Ages, he has once again opened up the path of Buddhism. However, the catastrophe of the end of the world will probably be even more extraordinary!”
A saint opened his mouth and spoke, but his eyes were slightly looking at Feng Qingyang. At that moment, it was like traveling through heaven and earth!
"Um?"
Feng Qingyang's heart trembled, and he suddenly raised his head and looked at the eight projections in the void. Although he could not see their faces, he could feel that one of them was looking at him closely.
Needless to say, it must be Saint Tianyi. When Feng Qingyang thought about how he had defeated the young Saint Tianyi before, he was afraid that he had already figured it out. He didn't know whether he would do anything to endanger him. He muttered to himself, groaning in his heart.
"You were able to break through thanks to this young friend's words!"
The void roared, the figure did not speak, but the meaning of his words was clearly presented in the void.
"Yes, you have become the ninth Buddha and reshaped our Buddhist lineage. Thanks to him, Buddha is originally Taoism, and all things can be devoted to Buddha throughout life. From now on, you are the first successor of our Buddhist lineage!"
Then, Du'e recited Buddhist scriptures with a magnificent appearance, and even many golden flowers appeared on his lips, his teeth were fragrant, and lotus flowers appeared everywhere. A scroll of golden scriptures fell from the sky and was directly imprinted on Feng Qingyang's mind.
"This is the Buddhist scripture, the only scripture passed down by our Buddha. It can help you break through your cultivation, turn misfortune into fortune, and wish you all the best. It can also help you reduce the growth of demons in your heart and resolve the power of the catastrophe!"
