Qingyou Valley is a quiet place, with gurgling streams, long grass, orioles flying, flowers in bloom, and waterfalls flowing.
But now, all of this has disappeared.
The golden light of Buddhism shines in all directions, erasing everything in the valley. The world around him has undergone earth-shaking changes. However, Liang Yan's consciousness cannot penetrate this layer of golden light, so he can only guard himself and watch the changes.
I don’t know how long it took, the golden light gradually dissipated, and several bells rang in the distance, followed by the sound of chanting from all directions.
Liang Yan's face was solemn, and he did not move a step from beginning to end. When the golden light gradually dispersed, he released his consciousness and observed the surrounding situation.
All he saw was a rolling mountain range, with valleys of different sizes within the mountains, and in each valley there was a mortal kingdom.
These mortals have no magic power, but they are all devout Buddhist believers. Some chant sutras in a low voice, some close their eyes and meditate, and some prostrate on the ground and kneel before the Buddha statue on the top of the mountain. The gift.
Countless Buddhist soldiers patrol the mountain road, obviously to maintain order in this area and to prevent demons from causing trouble.
Liang Yan looked into the distance and saw that this mountain range was boundless, and his spiritual consciousness could not see the end. There were thousands of mortal kingdoms in the mountains, countless, which seemed to indicate that the incense of Buddhism was endless and would never be exhaustion.
“What a ‘Buddha Kingdom in the palm of your hand’!”
Liang Yan secretly exclaimed.
This is the great magical power of Buddhism. According to legend, it can educate thousands of living beings, gather the will of all living beings, and achieve supreme merit.
The Venerable Great Suffering used this technique to trap him in this Buddhist kingdom, so that he could not get out or realize it, so he would give up.
Liang Yan tried to use his magic power and found that it was indeed restricted by the rules of this world. The spiritual power moved extremely slowly. Coupled with the continuous chanting sounds all around, even the fighting spirit was weakened a lot. .
"Master Da Ku, are you trying to save Liang?" Liang Yan looked around and suddenly asked loudly.
"Amitabha."
A Buddha's name came from mid-air, and a dull voice slowly said: "Zongzhu Liang is a man of great wisdom, how can a poor monk dare to teach him? It's just that the Buddha's kingdom is in the palm of his hand. There is also mystery Wonderful, let’s see how Sect Leader Liang can escape.”
“Okay, then I’ll try the Buddha Kingdom in your palm!”
Liang Yan laughed and raised his light as if to escape. Shooting towards the sky like a shooting star.
He has just set off, and across the mountains, countless people in the Three Thousand Buddha Kingdoms are chanting sutras in unison. The sound filled the valley and rushed into the sky, making the whole world pure and clean.
It is really like "There is no cloud in the sky and there is no worry, the lotus platform is bright and clear, even an inch of the heart!"
Liang Yan felt something bad. Although he was thousands of miles away, the sound of chanting sutras seemed to be right next to his ears. Lingering.
Looking back, where is half a step away from the mountains? Even though there are white clouds surrounding it, it is still in the mountains. No matter how it flies, it cannot escape from this mountain range, as if it is firmly locked.
“Awesome!”
Others can’t see clearly the reality of these visions, but Liang Yan is well aware of them.
As early as half a month ago, Wu Ci was talking about the Eight Great Sub-Saints, and when he talked about the Great Ku Venerable, he was also filled with emotion. This old monk was so talented that he had actually cultivated Luo Tianshan's supreme secret scripture "Wu Shou Sutra" to the eighth level. It's just one last step away from reaching perfection and hitting the realm of a saint.
The "Wu Shou Sutra" is mysterious and unpredictable, and its origin cannot be verified. There are rumors that Luo Tianshan was not called Luo Tianshan at first. There was only a small Zen monastery on the mountain. The unknown old monk who wandered around was able to pass on the "Wu Shou Sutra". From then on, the abbot realized the Tao and eventually became a generation of eminent monks. This is how Luotian Mountain is built today.
Buddhism is compassionate and saves all living beings. Although the "Lifeless Sutra" is the supreme secret scripture, all its disciples can practice it. However, those below the golden elixir realm can only practice the first three levels and cannot obtain the subtleties. That’s it.
An important feature of practicing the "Lifeless Sutra" is that as the level of cultivation increases, the soul of the soul will become extremely powerful, so powerful that it can be reincarnated after failing to transcend the tribulation!
Although there is only one chance of rebirth, it is the envy of countless geniuses.
Because after the reincarnation of the eminent monks in Luotian Mountain, they will retain most of the memories and supernatural powers of their previous lives, which is equivalent to standing on the shoulders of the previous life and continuing to practice. However, there is also a disadvantage, that is, after reincarnation, they will be affected by an innate turbidity, temporarily forgetting Can't afford oneself.
Therefore, whenever an eminent monk reincarnates, Luo Tianshan will send his disciples down the mountain to greet him, awaken his memory, and help him successfully "reverse the tribulation". For example, Liang Yan met the Ran Deng Zun during the selection and assessment in Wushuang City. That is, he returned after "turning the tribulation".
With this kind of magical power, the masters of Luo Tianshan will have a chance to make a comeback as long as they are not beaten to pieces.
The Great Suffering Master is extremely talented and has cultivated the "Wu Shou Sutra" to the eighth level. The strength of his soul has become unimaginable. In fact, he used the power of his soul to hold the Buddha Kingdom and the three thousand pure lands in his palm. Opening up can be said to be a spiritual world.
Here, the Great Suffering Lord is the way of heaven. A thought of flowers blooms and a thought of eternity. No matter how Liang Yan flies away, as long as he does not see the Great Suffering Lord himself, he will never be able to leave this world.
"Master wants to trap me with the Dharma, but he doesn't know that my heart is like a clear mirror, untainted by dust."
Liang Yan suddenly chuckled, and the "Eight Parts of Evolution" was quietly running, and the golden light of Buddhism enveloped the whole body. It is the light of Buddha, but it is incompatible with the surroundings and cannot integrate into this environment at all.
The sound of chanting seemed to have weakened, and the quiet and peaceful atmosphere no longer existed, replaced by a surge of pride.
“Huh?”
Venerable Great Ku let out a light sigh and murmured: “I didn’t expect that Sect Master Liang would know the Buddhist Dharma of Kuzhou in the Western Region. This is the lineage of the Angry Monk. ?”
"Haha, I am the only one in the sky and on the earth!"
Liang Yan laughed loudly and walked through the air. The divine power of the Vajra turned into a monstrous fist shadow and blasted away the mountains in front of him with one punch.
Amidst the loud noise, rocks shattered and the earth cracked. Countless Buddhist people fled in panic. They looked at the shadows outside the mountain with fearful faces. They heard mourning everywhere, as if the end of the world was coming to an end.
Liang Yan had no mercy. The divine power of the Vajra was so strong that it washed away the entire mountain range like a flood. Hundreds of millions of people in the Buddhist Kingdom were turned into powder by the shadow of this golden fist.
"The donor is also half a Buddhist disciple. How can he be so vicious and consider the common people as if they are nothing?" the Great Suffering said angrily.
"No!"
Liang Yan laughed: "What is Buddha? What is Tao? Break the old shackles and return my bodhicitta. Everyone in the world is a Buddha, why do I need to kneel to the Buddhas?"
"What a loud tone!" Venerable Great Ku was slightly surprised and frowned. : "None of the Angry Monk lineage has the heart to respect the Buddha?"
Liang Yan smiled and did not answer, and just said: "No need to say more, you and I have different understandings of Zen. Let's divide it on our hands. Let’s play.”
“That’s fine.”
As Venerable Great Ku sighed softly, there were changes in the mountains.
I saw the mountains gathered together to form a giant Buddha that reached the sky and the earth. The Buddha's hands spread out, revealing thousands of golden lights, which dispersed all the dark clouds thousands of miles away. There was no darkness in the entire mountain range. corner. Boom!
When the Buddha's hand falls, it is like a purifying fire lotus, sweeping everything and melting everything.
“Fellow Taoist Great Sufferer, you are trying to hide something.”
Liang Yan suddenly laughed, raised his light, and pinched the sword in his hand.
I saw a black sword light brushing out from the Taixu Gourd. The sword light reached the sky and the earth, like a long river rushing up, penetrating the palm of the Buddha's hand.
The sword energy surged, and countless black lotuses bloomed, like black holes. The surrounding Buddha light was drawn into it, as if falling into a bottomless abyss, and no more light could be seen.
Liang Yan followed the sword light and rushed into the body of the mountain Buddha. There was chaos inside, not as bright as the golden light outside.
In the endless chaos, a golden lotus bloomed, and an old monk sat on the lotus platform, his face wrinkled together, looking sad.
"The Buddha's Kingdom is in the palm of my hand, and the flowers bloom to see me. If I don't see my true body, I will never leave the Buddha's Kingdom."
Liang Yan looked at the old monk in front of him, smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "Master's true body is indeed here. Give up!”
“Amitabha!”
Venerable Mahaku chanted the Buddha’s name, clasped his hands together, and saw the golden light coming from the sky like a tide, and was absorbed into his body. The surrounding scenery also changed in an instant, and the three thousand pure lands and boundless Buddhist lands were all reduced to nothing.
Instead, there are streams, waterfalls, flowers, and those warblers and swallows in the quiet valley
The eight great sub-sages were all sitting in their seats, but Lord Great Ku left the lotus platform and sat opposite Liang Yan. The two of them seemed to have been wandering in the sky for a long time, but at this moment they opened their eyes at the same time.
"Sect Master Liang's magical powers are indeed extraordinary. I recognize your strength, but it's just Sect Master Liang's Buddhist understanding that I don't recognize." Venerable Great Ku said leisurely.
Wu Ci smiled and said: "Nanxuan sects seek common ground while reserving differences. This does not affect it."
Zuo Linye said: "Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, three gives birth to three All things, different sects have different views, which is the right way, otherwise it will be like the Celestial Palace, which is an evil way."
The Great Sufferer had nothing to say, so he could only nod silently and returned to his lotus platform.
There was a brief silence.
From the beginning to now, in just half a stick of incense, Liang Yan has passed three levels in a row. Now, the only things standing in front of him are Gui Wujiu of Wanggui City and Jisheng of Tianmo Mountain. The devil is gone.
However, although Liang Yan behaved calmly, he did not dare to relax at all.
The people present are all Yasheng powerhouses, and they will set up the test. Although it is not a direct battle, it still consumes a huge amount of energy.
Except for the first three levels, which Zuo Lin had an easy time, the pressure brought by any of the other levels was no less than fighting the demons on Yuzhu Mountain alone.
It seemed that Liang Yan was making great progress, but in fact he was very tired. However, he could not show any fatigue in front of the nine sub-sages, especially the victorious demon king.
Secretly refining a pill that can quickly restore spiritual power into the body, Liang Yan's expression remained unchanged, he glanced at the remaining two people and said with a smile: "There are still two levels, I don't know what you two know. Who comes first?"
"Let me try you!"
Gui Wujiu got down from the starlight futon and said calmly: "Sect Master Liang can get out of the 'Buddha Kingdom in the Palm of His Hand', but he doesn't know if he can get out of my 'Galaxy Formation'?"
The words were just right. As soon as he fell, he made a magic spell with one hand, and then pointed towards the sky.
Liang Yan had been on high alert for a long time and was waiting attentively, but after waiting for a while, there was still a gentle breeze in the quiet valley, the spring flowers were blooming, and there seemed to be nothing unusual.
"What the hell is this guy pretending to be?"
Just as the thought flashed through his mind, the valley suddenly became gloomy. When he looked up, he saw that the originally clear sky had disappeared. , replaced by a deep night sky.
The night is like a cloth and the stars are bright.
Gui Wujiu smiled and suddenly moved his hand. Thirteen stars on the night sky burst into bright light at the same time. After a moment, they actually fell from the sky and landed directly above the valley.
"Not Zhou Tianyin!"
Liang Yan's pupils shrank and a solemn look appeared on his face.
Wu Ci once said that what Gui Wujiu learned was from the Confucian sect. He could deduce the changes in the stars, and his supernatural powers could even cause strange phenomena in the sky. Such things as picking the stars and the moon were in his hands. It's ordinary.
At this moment, the stars above the valley were shining together, converging into a long river of starlight, brushing down from mid-air, and soon the entire valley was immersed in the river.
The eight sub-sages, at the moment when the starlight fell, each made a seal and disappeared, leaving only Liang Yan and Gui Wujiu in the valley.
"Sect Leader Liang, this 'Galaxy Formation' contains the mystery of the movement of stars. I don't use magic power, I only use deduction techniques to change the trajectory of stars in this long river. If you can get out of it, I will recognize your strength." Wu Jiu smiled.
After hearing this, Liang Yan remained silent and stared at the stars around him for a long time. He nodded slowly and said, "The changes in the stars are indeed mysterious! Since fellow Taoist has set up this formation, I will join the formation. Let's give it a try."
After that, he took out the Mayfly Sword Pill, shook out the "Yin Yang Blood Talisman", fixed it on his head, and then entered the magic circle.
As soon as he entered the formation, he saw countless starlight rushing straight towards him. The surrounding light and shadow alternated, and the light and darkness were intertwined. At that moment, his heart was shuddered, and he stopped and did not act rashly.
“The end is filled with murderous intent, and every step is startling!”
Liang Yan didn't dare to act rashly because he saw part of the mysterious changes in the "Galaxy Formation", so he was cautious. If someone who was ignorant and fearless took one step, he might have turned into withered bones.
“Back then, when I broke through the mysterious entrance and wandered into the void, I also had the opportunity to comprehend the aurora celestial phenomena. Unfortunately, the time was too short. In the end, I only understood a glimmer of the laws of the stars. There is no blame. It’s so different compared to . ”
Liang Yan knew that he was far behind in the realm of the Star Law. However, this test was not a competition between the power of the two laws, but a competition between them in the sky. Find a way out from the siege of Starlight.
As long as you can get out of it, you will pass the assessment!
“After all, the changes in the stars have their own rules to follow. In front of the eight sub-sages, I don’t dare to do anything to block the door of life without blame. It’s better to use the ‘Gui Yi Jue’ to let Do you want to explore the way first?”
Thinking of this, Liang Yan did not hesitate. He pinched the magic formula in his hand, and two identical "Liang Yans" suddenly appeared.
This was not the first time he had cast this spell, but when the Yasheng present saw it, they were still secretly frightened.
"What kind of secret technique is this? Even the incarnation outside the body cannot completely copy one's own breath, and it can also use various magical powers and secret techniques of the deity. It is simply fake and real!"
Fan Qingzhou I had suffered a loss before, so I was very emotional.
