Chapter 133 The Way to Become a Buddha
The undead have the aura of the undead abyss, and as long as their cultivation level is higher than that of the undead, they can detect the undead.
Ning Ruoxi walked into the Buddha Hall under Shi Kong's watch, but Shi Kong did not leave. He had heard from his disciples that Ning Ruoxi had practiced Buddhism, and he wanted to stay and see for himself whether it was true.
If Ning Ruoxi really practiced Buddhism, she would be a dual practitioner like him.
There were many people in the Buddha Hall, so Ning Ruoxi found an empty seat to sit down, and then began to mobilize the Buddhist teachings to start practicing.
When Shi Kong saw the Buddhist path appearing on Ning Ruoxi's body, he showed a satisfied smile.
He knew cause and effect. The deeper Ning Ruoxi practiced Buddhism, the more bound she would be to Lingshan. In the future, Ning Ruoxi might be able to take over Buddhism.
Shi Kong wanted to train Ning Ruoxi as his successor, but Ning Ruoxi had never practiced Buddhism before.
Now is a good start for Shi Kong.
Five years have passed since Ning Ruoxi sat down. The disciples in the Buddha Hall have changed one batch after another. Each batch of disciples looked at Ning Ruoxi with envy and jealousy.
Only Ning Ruoxi could be so willful and stay in the Buddha Hall as long as she wanted. During this period, Shi Kong also visited Ning Ruoxi many times.
After Ning Ruoxi broke through to the middle of the integration stage, she felt that her cultivation speed had slowed down again. Even if she used Buddhist Taoism, her cultivation speed did not increase much.
"Which link is the problem?" Ning Ruoxi rarely stopped practicing. She looked at the power of Buddhism surrounding her and fell into deep thought.
Lin Shuang explained straightforwardly: "Disciple, haven't you noticed a problem? You have no understanding of things such as the Buddhist path, the blood path, etc., but have directly condensed them on the path of enlightenment."
"I understand!" Ning Ruoxi thought of the key point of the problem.
What Lin Shuang meant was that Ning Ruoxi realized the way of ice, but not the way of Buddhism.
Ning Ruoxi still doesn't know what the essence of Buddhism is. She inexplicably mastered Buddhism on the way to enlightenment.
Not difficult at all.
"If I understand what Buddhism is, can my cultivation speed be improved?" Ning Ruoxi stood up and walked out of the Buddha Hall ignoring the looks of the disciples around her.
"Tell Master Shi Kong for me, I want to see him!" Ning Ruoxi said to the disciple guarding the door of the Buddha Hall.
A disciple guarding the door bowed to Ning Ruoxi and left in a hurry.
Ning Ruoxi returned to the Buddha Hall and waited quietly.
About time for a cup of tea, relief came.
The two of them sat cross-legged, Shi Kong showing concern, "Miss Ning, what do you want from me?"
"Master Shikong, I have a question, please answer it for me."
Shi Kong smiled and said, "Say."
"What is Buddhism?" Ning Ruoxi asked.
"Buddhism?" Shi Kong's smile was stunned. Is Ning Ruoxi serious about this question? If she doesn't know what Buddhism is, how can she teach Buddhism?
Although Shi Kong was puzzled, he still explained to Ning Ruoxi: "Buddhism is also called the way of Buddhism, the way to become a Buddha."
"Everyone has different perceptions of Buddhism, but the scriptures give the simplest explanation of what Buddhism is. Buddhism is to stay away from the troubles of life and death and achieve supreme enlightenment."
The Tao needs to be understood by oneself, and other people's understanding of the Tao will limit one's own growth, so Shikong talks about it very superficially, like a fuse. "There are three ways to become a Buddha. One is to become a Buddha through sudden enlightenment. This depends on the individual's understanding. If you clearly understand what a Buddha is, you can become a Buddha immediately. There may be a statue of your Buddha in the Buddha Hall. ”
"The second is to cultivate oneself and become a Buddha, learn the Buddha's process of becoming a Buddha, and walk the Buddha's path. The limitation of this path lies in the Buddha's achievements. There will never be a chance to surpass the Buddha."
"The third is that he was led to become a Buddha by the Buddha. I won't go into detail on this point. Whether a living Buddha exists today is still open to question."
"Generally outstanding disciples choose the first way to become a Buddha, but it is difficult. Disciples with ordinary talents choose the second way to become a Buddha. Although it has limitations, it is safe. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. .”
Lin Shuang was confused when she heard Shi Kong's explanation, "Buddhism is really troublesome. It's difficult to practice Buddhism!"
"If it were me, I would probably choose the first way to become a Buddha, but what would be the right way for me to practice Buddhism?" Ning Ruoxi thought thoughtfully.
Shi Kong was also curious about what choice Ning Ruoxi would make. He did not leave, but just looked at Ning Ruoxi quietly.
Ning Ruoxi recalled the Buddha statue she saw on the way to seek enlightenment. It was only after that Buddha statue melted into her body that she attained the Buddha's path.
The Buddha statue was very ordinary, like a person who had been transformed into a golden body, without any distinguishing features.
"The only Buddhist technique I have learned is the technique of the Six Paths, but there are six statues of the Six Paths Buddha. They each have their own abilities and are all separate. Why not combine the Six Paths into one and create a true Six Paths Buddha statue? The way? ”
The Buddha's way appeared in front of Ning Ruoxi. Ning Ruoxi's eyes were dyed with a faint golden light. Ning Ruoxi stretched out her right hand and directly touched the Buddha's way. A powerful Buddha's light bloomed from her body.
Buddha nature appears.
This is the Buddha's light that shines on Ning Ruoxi from the Heavenly Eye Buddha statue and the other Heart Buddha statue, and now they are all revealed.
Ning Ruoxi's Buddhist path turned into a Buddha statue, which was exactly the one she had seen on the road to enlightenment. Ning Ruoxi touched the Buddha's light with her hands and touched the eyes and heart of the Buddha statue.
The originally ordinary Buddha statue seemed to have spiritual consciousness at this moment.
Shi Kong on the side was already stunned. Ning Ruoxi was really the chosen Buddha girl. She actually made her own Buddha statue, even though Shi Kong could see that the Buddha statue was incomplete.
But this Buddha statue is also a Buddha. Strictly speaking, Ning Ruoxi has walked out of her own Buddhist path. She is already a Buddha, and she is still a living Buddha!
Even if he is as strong as Shi Kong, he still has not been able to clarify his own Buddhist path, let alone manifest the Buddhist path into the Buddha body and condense his own Buddha image.
"The current Buddhist path is the Buddhist path that I have understood in the true sense."
Ning Ruoxi absorbed the Buddha statue into her body. At this moment, her cultivation speed reached an unprecedented speed.
Shi Kong left quietly and used his spiritual consciousness to carve out a Buddha statue of Ning Ruoxi. After the statue was completed, it was sent to the Martial Ancestor Hall for his disciples to pay homage to.
At the same time, wisps of incense drifted into Ning Ruoxi's body, and the power of this incense also helped Ning Ruoxi increase her cultivation.
…….
"Why is there an extra Buddha statue in Wuzu Hall?"
"Do you think this Buddha statue looks like a female Buddha?"
"When you say that, it seems a bit like it! The eyes of this Buddha statue feel like they can see through me."
"Yes! I feel like everything about me is invisible under these eyes, just like how the Buddha with the Sky Eye looks at me!"
