Chapter 578: Mother Lotus for Rebirth
In the beginning, Mother Lotus of Many Leaves Qianrui was just a normal deity who practiced step by step.
But as changes occurred in the world, this god who still stayed in the world became the person on whom the wishes of all living beings could be placed.
Hundreds and thousands of wishes converged on her, and later monks who practiced the Guanyin Method were aligned with her. The two used their great supernatural powers to constantly try to save the world and let all living beings in it live in a world of neither life nor death. Repeated rotations eventually brought the world to a standstill, leaving all things in an awkward situation of neither life nor death.
The Ten Thousand Leaves Qianrui Lotus Mother herself has also been distorted in nature through repeated reincarnations.
Chu Tai looked at Lotus Mother and couldn't help but ask: "The nature of dependent origination is empty. You should know that self-attachment gives rise to self-views, and self-views are biased."
"If I have boundless magical powers, I can bring the dead back to life. , can reverse the situation and bring them back, is it still prejudice?"
Wanye Qianrui Lotus's expression recovered slightly, and she looked at Chu Tai with a smile on her face, but the prayers around her became more and more harsh.
Chu Tai sighed, and he suddenly understood why Lotus Mother was able to condense the Dharma intention of [Nanwu Guanshiyin]. Although her foundation was greatly influenced by Buddhism, her essence had begun to shift. In order to test the root cause, Chu Tai followed the thoughts of the Ten Thousand Leaves Qianrui Lotus Mother and asked a question.
“There are external methods that can create awareness of the mind and consciousness. It is the attachment of Dharma that is touched by thinking about the inner consciousness.”
Lotus Mother smiled at the corner of her mouth: "The Buddha's view is the view of ignorance. This view is the right view, and it is the only true appearance in the Dharma Realm. Ordinary people do not know this view and are attached to the false appearances they see, so they see human beings, me, beauty and ugliness, birth and death, and suffering. Happiness, right and wrong, and other worries arise naturally. But if I can give this view to all sentient beings, can I save them from suffering? "
< br>"How are these methods different from the divine way?"
"If it can save all living beings, how different are the gods and Buddhas?"
Chu Tai sighed, shifted his eyes slightly, and whispered: " But can this really be called relief? "
In Chu Tai's eyes, the whole world began to lose its prosperity.
The blurred boundaries of reality and illusion were separated again, hidden under the green world, and the appearance of another world emerged.
Broken thoughts, painful emotions, and aura of terror gradually manifested their essence, turning into overwhelming fog and clouds, shrouding the surroundings.
Above is the dim sun, emitting almost no light, like a confused soul.
In the middle is the falling volcanic ash, which seems to be the remaining ashes after burning paper money. This scene of falling ashes is like a memorial ceremony that will never stop.
At the bottom is the pale and gray land. I don’t know if the color is caused by the mutation of soil or the accumulation of bones. It is full of desolation, despair, decay, confusion, pain, struggle, etc. It is extremely shocking. , a breath that will make people crazy and irritable even if they come into contact with it.
Looking around, it seems that the whole world is wrapped in heavy gray.
But even in such a desperate world, there is a trace of abnormal life breath. The faint Buddha's light flows in the center of the world, constantly washing away the dark world filled with ashes and fog.
Wherever the Buddha's light passes, a clear blue sky appears above.
The ashes turned into rain and snow, nourishing the barren earth.
And the earth is growing pieces of fresh green buds and leaves.
Everything seems to be changing for the better.
But in the next moment, a sharp wail sounded, and a red light shone on the earth. Everything was burned clean, and the new branches turned into ashes all over the sky, rising up into the sky, and falling in the rustle. The land that had become fertile became cracked and soft again, filled with the smell of restlessness, waste, and decay.
As for the source of the Buddha's light, the Lotus Mother with Thousand Leaves and Thousand Cores has also taken on another form.
Countless flowers, branches and leaves began to wither, revealing the numerous bones underneath. Countless skeletons opened their mouths wide and issued their final prayers.
"My Lady Manyo, please lead us to survive!"
"Ahhhhhh..."
A desperate wailing came from the mouth of the twisted-faced Mother Manyo, The Buddha's light became more blazing, and a breeze full of life gradually rose up inside, blowing around, trying to make the darkness and fog disappear again, and let all things be reborn.
The numerous white bones under the branches and leaves also gave birth to flesh and blood under the breeze, and fell into a short sleep.
Chu Tai couldn't help but sigh: "Life is sleep, death is torture. You can't live, you can't die, it's sad, it's deplorable..."
"As long as they can come back alive..."
Lian Mu raised her head and looked at Chu Tai, Xuan Huang Yu, and [Mountain Ghost].
"Unfortunately, your power is still not enough. You can control a place, turn disaster into good luck, and build the Yin and Yang sides of the earth, but the scope is limited. Otherwise, you should be able to save them."
Chu Tai shook his head and said: "It can't be done. It's not like you didn't see the wasteland I was in before. It was empty without anything. Do you think I don't want to create life? But in fact, the three of you After union, life has been taken away by you, and what is left in the outside world is nothing but empty silence. Even the illusory universe in the mirror is just the embodiment of thoughts, so they can neither survive nor die. "
“Are you still unwilling to look at the changes in the world and face your own nature?”
With that said, Chu Tai used the power of the Dao Fruit fragments [Mountain Ghost] and [Strong and Soft] that he had mastered.
By dividing the yin and yang sides of the earth and sensing the essence of physical properties, the outer appearance of the Thousand Leaves Lotus is torn apart again.
Endless blood-colored mist rises, thousands of flowers and vines grow, the scarlet flowers and leaves are stained with the dew of life, countless flesh and bones intertwine, becoming new arms, holding up two entangled bodies. Together, there are bones covered with tooth marks.
There are more skeletons wrapped in vines, supporting the beautiful crying goddess.
Holy aura and gorgeous glow surround the goddess. When she raises her head, there is an aura of boundless majesty and holiness, compassion and salvation, just like a Bodhisattva.
This extremely distorted and impactful sight made Chu Tai stunned for a moment, and the true form of Lotus Mother seemed to wake up.
“Ah, where am I?”
Mother Lotus spoke slowly, looked at the scene around her, then let out a sharp cry, and countless vines and flowers appeared on the flesh and blood. , after covering up her essence, the goddess's appearance was distorted again, and then returned to her previous appearance of resembling a Bodhisattva or a goddess.
She looked at Chu Tai and said that sentence again: "As long as, as long as they can come back alive..."
'What went wrong? ’
Recalling the scenes he had seen earlier that did not conform to his guess, Chu Tai felt that he seemed to have made a mistake. Could it be that there were other problems with the twisted nature of Mother Lotus?
