The Sage Who Transcended Samsara

Chapter 140: The fifth level is complete

Views:

The demonic energy that seemed to make the entire Tianhaiyuan tremble could only disturb Meng Qi and the others mentally, making it difficult to truly invade the people so close to the world. Moreover, it seemed to have some scruples, fearing that it would attack without reservation and end up being known as a big bully. Head, attracted the eminent monk of Lanke Temple.

The latter point is Meng Qi's guess, because a powerful demon clan that can occupy a paradise should have its own clan-suppressing magic weapons, like Shaolin's Ananda Sword and Xijian Pavilion's Zhanwo Sword.

However, since the other party did not invite the magic soldiers of the Zhen clan for unknown reasons, Meng Qi naturally did not ask too many questions, which would be a waste of trouble. He supported Gu Changqing and Zhen Hui, and followed Hong Neng calmly along the river. Walk towards the light blue transparent lake.

The lake is located on the plateau, and the river rushes up against the law. When Meng Qi and Hongneng reached the edge of the plateau, the sky suddenly became bright. It turned out that the huge white fox disappeared, and a Buddhist temple appeared paradoxically on the plateau. There is no luxury, the sound of the bell is far away, and the solemnity is high.

A mountain road winds down from the Buddhist temple to Meng Qi and others, seemingly waiting for a few people to climb up.

Hongneng took a deep breath, slowly knelt down, prostrated on the ground, kowtowed heavily, and chanted the Buddha's name in a low voice.

Senior Brother Hongneng Meng Qi asked in confusion.

The white fox disappeared, and Gu Changqing and Zhenhui gradually returned to normal, looking at Hong Neng with the same confusion.

Hongneng smiled calmly and said: The poor monk once said when he entered the temple when he was a child that whenever he encounters a Buddhist temple, he must take three steps and kowtow to worship the Buddha devoutly.

But this is an illusion, Meng Qi said with a frown.

Hongneng shook his head and smiled: The Buddhist temple is in my heart, not elsewhere. Now that I can see it, it is the real Buddhist temple.

Er Mengqi seems to understand but not understand.

Hongneng glanced at Meng Qi: Shaolin is a Zen sect, and there is no saying that directly refers to one's own Buddha nature. Although this is inconsistent with the path of the temple, the poor monk also feels that it is reasonable, not on this shore, not on the other shore. If you are not in the middle, there is no Buddha outside your heart.

Meng Qi nodded slightly, remembering the concept of the Yangming School of Confucianism. There was nothing outside his heart, and he had no doubts about Hongneng's choice.

when

The bell sounded far away, Hongneng knelt down devoutly, took three steps and knocked once, and moved forward slowly. Meng Qi had never made such a promise, and had no real intention to worship the Buddha. Nature just follows quietly, enjoying the divine peace that this situation brings.

This feeling does not come from the Buddhas in the sky, nor does it come from the chanting of the Buddha's name, but from the meticulous piety of kowtow.

This mountain road was very long, but Hongneng was not impatient at all. As he walked, Meng Qi turned on the golden bell. It was not that he had a fighting spirit, but that he started practicing out of boredom. Try to complete the fifth level as soon as possible. Only when the fifth level is completed and you start practicing the sixth level can you condense the acupoints related to the nasal aperture. Otherwise it will stagnate.

During the awakening stage, the fifth level of the golden bell mask corresponds to the eye orifices and ear orifices, the sixth level corresponds to the nose orifices and the oral orifices, and the seventh level is to practice the front yin and back yin. Let the inner world form its own cycle, and the eighth level is to condense the ancestral aperture between the eyebrows and open the door to life and death. Internal and external exchanges, including half-step exterior scenes and real breakthroughs.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Meng Qi suddenly asked Gu Changqing and Zhenhui in confusion: Do you feel that the cultivation here is particularly fast? The hour just now was almost as good as my cultivation in one day.

It is true that Gu Changqing was immersed in the solemn and pious atmosphere and did not try to practice. He was quite surprised at this time. He quickly tried it. After a while, he was surprised and said, yes, this is really a holy land for cultivation.

Well, the little mouse drilled very fast. Zhenhui nodded heavily, looking pleased with himself.

However, Hongneng worshiped the Buddha devoutly and was not distracted, completely ignoring their conversation.

After confirming his guess, Meng Qi was surprised and happy, and took the time to practice. Anyway, he was just walking unconsciously, without fighting.

About a day later, the dark golden luster on Meng Qi's body became brighter and brighter, and sounds like fried beans kept ringing, indicating the changes in his body.

At the end, the dark gold almost merged into a dazzling brilliance that reached the sky, making Meng Qi's whole figure look like an Arhat shrouded in Buddha's light.

The brilliance gradually faded, and Meng Qi opened his eyes, realizing that the fifth level of his golden bell had been completed, and because he was tempered by divine thunder essence, the true meaning of Ananda's breaking sword technique was secretly in line with the essence of Buddhism, so he was sealed as a first-class swordsman. Not only did the hood of the chest disappear, but the hood of the vest behind him also condensed into one, and was no longer a weakness.

At this point, Meng Qi only has the nine natural orifices left, as well as the dantian, temples, eyebrows, and throat. They will disappear one by one as the golden bell increases. However, before attaining the Dharmakaya, there will always be a shield. No matter what, It cannot be refined away.

One day's work is worth a month's hard work. Meng Qi chuckled and said that although his fifth level was already close to perfection, he still had to practice hard for about a month. Unexpectedly, Tian Haiyuan's difficulties actually helped him.

Hongneng had already kowtowed in front of the Buddhist temple. Just as he was about to enter the temple to pay homage to the Buddha, suddenly, all the plateau lakes and temples began to shake like water waves, then disappeared into thin air and disappeared without a trace.

Meng Qi looked around in confusion, seeing only deep canyons, desolate gravels, and complex landforms, as if the beautiful rivers, mountains, plateaus, and sea he had experienced before were just a dream.

Huang Liang Yi Meng Meng Qi sighed softly.

Hong Neng smiled and said: The demon benefactors of Tianhaiyuan have given up. I can just send you to Tanhan Oasis.

At this time, they were already deep into Tanhan and were only an hour or two away from the oasis.

Haha, thanks to Senior Brother Hongneng's close proximity and miraculous power, the demon clan retreated despite the difficulties. Meng Qi thanked him sincerely.

Hongneng clasped his hands together without showing any trace of pride: Amitabha, they also had good intentions and gave up in advance, otherwise the poor monk would have to persist for another half day. I really don’t know if it would be possible.

Gu Changqing and Zhenhui also thanked Hong Neng. When they arrived at Tanhan Oasis, they went to Xieling to the south and to Liushaji to the east. If they were careful, they would be able to escape the pursuit of the horse bandits.

Hong Neng suddenly remembered something and said: One day in the mountains means a thousand years in the world. Although Tianhaiyuan cannot reach this level, it has a similar effect. Junior Brother Zhending, don't misestimate the time.

One day in the middle of the mountain, thousands of years have passed in the world. Meng Qi was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized. No wonder the effect of practicing in Tianhaiyuan for one day is equivalent to one month. It turns out that almost a month has passed outside.

A month later, Shaolin's reinforcements should have arrived long ago. They probably saved the master and went to the Vajra Temple. After searching for both of them to no avail, they returned.

Of course, this is a good thing for him. He does not have to be captured back to Shaolin. Moreover, after being missing for a month, the horse bandits probably thought that he and others had returned to the Central Plains, and there would no longer be a dragnet to kill them. When the time comes, as long as the younger brother is After being sent to the foot of Shaolin Mountain, I will return to the sea, haha

Think of the proud place. Meng Qi couldn't help but smile.

Not long after, the four of them arrived at the oasis and entered the market. Since they had changed their clothes in Yuhai, the number of people was wrong, and the time was wrong. Meng Qi was not afraid of being discovered, so he invited Hongneng to the inn for dinner.

Hongneng smiled and shook his head: Amitabha, fate comes and fate disperses. I still have a great wish to fulfill, so let’s just say goodbye.

Meng Qi knew that he was practicing hard, so he didn't force him. He clasped his hands and said: Amitabha. If Senior Brother Hongneng needs help in the future, just tell him.

If we are destined, we will meet again. Hongneng looked at the three of them, smiled and nodded. He turned around and left calmly.

Lanke Temple is so mysterious. Gu Changqing sighed.

Meng Qi nodded slightly, then immediately showed his face, looked at the inn and said: "I haven't eaten meat for a month." I really can't wait

The real feeling only lasts for one day. The corner of Gu Changqing's mouth twitched.

Senior brother, you have enlightened yourself. According to the commandments, you should not eat meat anymore. Zhenhui said to Meng Qi seriously.

Meng Qi's expression suddenly froze on his face and collapsed inch by inch. He had no self-consciousness like a Shaolin disciple.

Ahem, cough, cough, Meng Qi coughed a few times, and said to Zhenhui with a serious face: Junior brother, only when you return to Shaolin and leave records in the Miscellaneous Courtyard and the Discipline Academy can you truly step into Kaiqiao and start to follow Kaiqiao. period of discipline.

Really? Zhenhui scratched his head in confusion.

Yes. Meng Qi looked like he almost believed me.

All right. Zhenhui said happily, let's go eat meat quickly.

Meng Qi smiled again and walked into the inn first. He chose a relatively quiet place that was convenient for escaping into the backyard and ordered roasted leg of lamb and other food.

Then, he tilted his head slightly and moved his ears lightly, listening to the exchanges of other guests to make up for the gap of this month.

The same was true for Gu Changqing. Although he had no ears, many people were talking loudly and the whole inn could hear them. Only Zhenhui looked eagerly in the direction of the kitchen, waiting for the food.

I heard that Kongoji Temple has softened.

Of course, their foreign minister, King Bye, committed suicide, and his body was sent to the three Shaolin monks. It was said that King Bye was greedy for Shaolin's secret knowledge, so he trained spies to steal it. After he was discovered, he was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he found a secluded retreat. The cultivator Crying Old Man instigated him to kill the Xuanbei Divine Monk, hoping to provoke a direct confrontation between the two temples. Unexpectedly, Xuanbei Divine Monk not only did not die at the hands of the Crying Old Man, but instead fought back after more than ten days of fighting. Although the crying old man himself was seriously injured, he also used this to break through to the peak of the outdoor scene. Therefore, the conspiracy of the Bye King was shattered and he had to commit suicide to apologize.

Although the Dharma King who committed suicide was the master of the seventh heaven in the exterior scene, he might not be able to bypass the other Dharma Kings to do these things. Hehe, suicide is good, suicide is good, what do the three Shaolin monks say

How can one say that a master commits suicide, Vajra Temple has paid a huge price and surrendered, and Shaolin has no real damage. If they don't want to provoke a full-scale war, they will naturally give up.

Hearing this, Meng Qi immediately put aside his faint worries. Not only was his master fine, but he had also broken through to the peak of the outdoor scene. It was really great.

I wonder where those two Shaolin disciples went after causing such a big disturbance in the vast sea, but they suddenly disappeared. Could they have been caught by the horse bandits in Xieling and quietly killed them

It is impossible that on the day when the two Shaolin monks arrived, all the famous horse bandits who had participated in this matter in the vast sea hid. Even the leaders of the Nine Apertures and Eight Apertures on the Evil Ridge quietly came down the mountain. I don't know where they hid, but only the evil scholar Kang Zhi and the two leaders of Qiqiao stayed behind.

Yes, if they caught the Shaolin disciples, why would they kill all Gu Changqing’s parents, siblings, besides this bad breath

Bang, the wooden chopsticks in Gu Changqing's hand fell to the table. His face was pale and his eyes were empty.
