Chapter 182 Entering Lingshan
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this old rooster was known as the Mountain Phoenix back then. His bloodline has returned to his ancestors. Looking at the entire universe, he is considered a hard-to-match opponent."
"Therefore, until you meet the bald Sakyamuni, you will be undefeated in your life."
"Alas, no matter how glorious the past is, what's the use? We are all reduced to prisoners... We can't help ourselves in life and death."
A group of demons communicated with each other using their spiritual thoughts. There was nothing to gloat about, but they felt sympathy for each other.
In fact, Tiandao Fangxiu also knows a lot about this guy - he is a heterogeneous rooster. He attained Taoism in the cave of the Immortal Family and developed supreme supernatural powers. He hates being called pheasant or rooster essence. Simply call yourself Shanhuang.
"Behave well and you may have a chance to regain your freedom."
He casually drew a pie, and the old demon, whose ages combined were nearly a hundred thousand years old, immediately regained hope.
At least...the rest of my life is on the right track!
"Let's go, let's go to Earth."
After all this was done, Fang Xiu, who temporarily lacked the ability to deeply explore the secrets of the road to becoming an immortal on the ancient planet Yinghuo, led a group of unparalleled monsters and flew straight towards the blue planet.
No need for any mysterious jade platform!
"In astronomy, there is a phenomenon called the Great Opposition. During this period, Mars is closest to the Earth, and the distance between the two is about 55 million kilometers."
"Today, the sun is the farthest away from the earth, about 400 million kilometers..."
Shukaku, who had learned all kinds of knowledge, could easily calculate the approximate itinerary. For everyone present, this distance was essentially just a 100-meter sprint.
Almost instantly, many figures broke free from the constraints of gravity and entered the space environment. The aqua blue star that caught the eye in the distance began to grow rapidly.
It is true that in terms of volume alone, the earth is not very big and is far from comparable to the Beidou Starfield, but there is an inexplicable vastness secretly emanating from it.
——The wind roared in the ears, breaking through the atmosphere, and the figure headed by Tiandao Fangxiu descended rapidly.
During this period, when overlooking the surface of the earth, the mountains, rivers, land and the avenue of heaven and earth contained in it, it looked extremely special and lofty, and at the same time it gave people a feeling of serious incompleteness!
In addition, Fang Xiu caught a glimpse of the mountains towering into the clouds, tens of thousands of feet high!
And this is the real earth.
Of course, the real scene only lasted for a short moment, and was soon replaced by low mountains, as if everything he had seen before was an illusion.
As a reincarnation person, I naturally understand the reason——
The essence of heaven and earth is so thin that it can be almost ignored. It is difficult for mortals to embark on cultivation, let alone major cultivation with advanced cultivation. Those famous mountains and rivers are even folded.
“But there are a lot of good things.”
"It's just unclear whether the team sent by the Central Continent Team in advance has arrived."
"Counting the time, the Devils have already entered the Zhetian Realm. Alas, what will happen to them again..."
"No matter what, getting the recognition of the Ancient Axe, holding the upgraded version of the Sky-Swallowing Devil Jar, getting Wu Shi's essence and blood, and getting the remains of the Dacheng Holy Body, the big name is pretty good."
"I told the beast, it's like catching a small account, sorting out the small cards, and not delaying the rhythm."
Like falling dumplings, dozens of figures fell freely from the sky and fell into the sea, causing huge waves and rushing into the distance.
On this day, residents of the surrounding island countries were panicked, mistakenly believing that another earthquake and tsunami that shocked the world had occurred, resulting in numerous casualties. They were also worried that another nuclear power plant accident would occur.
"Is this...the road leading to Lingshan?" Shanhuang frowned.
Daxia Longque agreed: "That's right, I looked at this area from a distance back then."
At this moment, Fang Xiu was surrounded by a group of monsters, and only the two of them were following him. With one word or another, he determined the specific location of his current location.
Lingshan!
The essence of the way of heaven is the Western sage Zhunti!
Since you want to make progress, you must make the right decision and choose the most suitable path. Just like the beast Dao Lu Ya Taoist, he is transformed from the essence of the sun, so he will actively practice the Sun Sutra and absorb various divine fires.
——Suddenly, there was a vast Buddha power coming from the distance. This kind of fluctuation made the psychologically shadowed Daxia Longque want to worship, and highly doubted that the big bald donkey Sakyamuni was still alive!
Sensing the approach of a powerful Buddhist cultivator, an ancient road took the initiative to wind up, as if to lead them on the road.
Fang Xiu was not in a hurry to rush for time, and moved forward step by step. There were many ancient monuments on the roadside, as if they were not left to the real world of ordinary life - the mountains were extremely majestic, and the weather was not inferior to those of the ancient mountains in the Eastern Wilderness.
They are the symbols of Earth’s past glory!
It's a pity that time has passed and everything has been folded into various corners, forming another small world.
Unless Tian Dao Fang Xiu is powerful enough and is truly destined to the Buddha, otherwise, it will take a lot of energy to accurately capture the location of Lingshan.
"There's a body ahead!"
When Daxia Longque opened his mouth, he originally wanted to say that he was a bald donkey, but after thinking about his situation seriously and inadvertently looking at Tiandao Fangxiu's bald head, he felt that it would be better for him to show more respect to Buddhism in the future.
Tiandao Fangxiu, who was examining the general situation of the world, heard the sound and saw an old monk who was skinny and bones, and his body was yellow, almost light golden, lying in front of him, lifeless.
Moreover, the monk's robes are very old.
Because the three people did not suppress the flow of wind when they approached, he turned into ashes on the spot as soon as the air circulated.
In addition, there is a line of ancient characters carved on the rock in front of him. It is very scrawled and written in a hurry. It is written in ancient Sanskrit.
The general idea is that I devoted my whole heart to the Buddha, but could not see the spiritual mountain. Before he sat down for transformation, the light of wisdom appeared in my heart. I followed the instructions and went through asceticism to find this place. I finally saw the ancient road, but my life span dried up and I collapsed at the starting point.
"Just a second immortal." Shanhuang said disdainfully.
Because of this, Fang Xiu did not delay and continued on the road, holding the blessing pestle that emitted immeasurable Buddha light in his hand. The twelve-grade golden lotus of merit had also appeared. The Buddha's light continued to extend this special ancient road deeper.
During this period, a group of three people passed through mountains that could not be seen in the world. When their eyes focused again, the target was a dilapidated palace.
Immediately afterwards, I saw another ancient temple. It was not large in scale. There was only a stone hall in it. The old monk sat in it and left his last words, saying:
The road to Xunling Mountain ends here, the road ahead is vast and there is no hope.
After all, only the profound power of Buddha can open the way to the other side.
"This one is quite interesting. The whole skin is covered with a hint of light gold. In Buddhist terms, it almost achieves Arhat status."
"Nothing more than that."
As the two demons spoke, the ancient road ahead became more and more distant, as if it would never end, until Tiandao Fangxiu's body surged with tremendous Buddhist power.
In response, there are ocean-like waves of Buddha-nature surging in the distance, so vast and boundless that it can be compared with Mount Xumi in the Western Desert, the Star of the Buried Emperor of the Beidou!
Great Sage = Ancient Buddha.
No matter how high the threshold set by Sakyamuni is, it will not be able to block the way of heaven.
The glow is brilliant and the auspicious energy is steaming.
After walking for a while, the ups and downs of the ancient mountains appeared, and the wild atmosphere hit our face. The towering mountains were connected into a patchwork, and the old trees blocked the sun. There were living creatures looming, and even worse, there were sounds that shook the mountains and rivers. roar. Similar to the outer reaches of the ancient forbidden land, it is almost a primitive world.
"The Buddha's power has disappeared. Is it the spiritual mountain?"
Daxia Longque couldn't help but wonder, but after many years of imprisonment and continuous humiliation at the hands of Buddhist masters, he didn't dare to explore at will——
In the eyes of demons, the Buddhist powerhouse is as threatening as any restricted area of life, especially since there was indeed a flash of mighty faith in it before.
Beside him, Shanhuang responded calmly: "We are already close to Lingshan."
What should the Third Heaven Quasi-Emperor be afraid of?
Without hitting the imperial soldiers, he can almost run amok. At least compared to Daxia Longque, he still has the courage.
Architectural Buddhist relics, ancient Sanskrit characters, vast scenery, and savage beasts that dare not approach, just like this, with the characters shrunk into inches, Tiandao Fangxiu led two thugs and traveled more than a hundred miles in an instant. Stop.
Lingshan?
Not holy.
At least what was blocking the road in front of him was a ruined land, the Buddha nature was completely lost, bursts of crying and yin energy came, and a ghostly figure quickly approached, as fast as thunder and lightning, and rushed over in the blink of an eye!
"Ant."
There was no need for Fang Xiu to take action, let alone the performance of Shanhuang and Daxia Longque. Lying on his shoulders, Shukaku glared like a pet, and the force of the magnetic field fixed it.
A gray shadow appeared.
He is an old monk, wearing a gray monk's robe. He has a huge body, surrounded by black energy, and his eyes are red. He seems to be possessed by a demon. A large number of fine scales have grown on his face, spreading to all parts of his body. He is no longer considered a human being. .
The end of good is evil.
It can be considered a major feature of Zhetian’s worldview.
Whether it is the Great Emperor of the Great Way, the Ancient Emperor, or even the more ancient Heavenly Lord, his blood is boundless and invincible to all evils during his lifetime, but after his death, he will still be born with the spirit of the gods - the embodiment of the evil side of his character, which will only be released when he dies. Gradually, he formed a powerful force of thought and transformed into a humanoid devil.
"Are you also looking for Lingshan? I hate it!"
Even though he was restrained, the old monk with red eyes was still solemn and filled with black energy. He said sadly like a ghost: "I wholeheartedly worship the Buddha, but I still can't see the spiritual mountain. Even if I am about to become a saint, my pursuit after nine deaths will still be fruitless. What else is there to worship the Buddha?" Meaning?”
"The Buddha is already dead, what else are you looking for..."
The yelling stopped abruptly.
It was just a look and disappeared on the spot.
The six pure bamboos held by Tian Dao Fangxiu swayed slightly, and the old monk whose body was destroyed turned into a holy light. He sat up in the void and recited Namo Amitabha, and then disappeared into a rain of light, dissipating all his resentment. .
Daxia Longque didn't dare to ridicule, claiming that the Buddha and the devil are one, and followed obediently as his little brother. The closer he got to Lingshan, the more withered bones he saw along the way. They were all accomplished monks during their lifetimes.
Many of them transformed into corpses, and then were shattered on the spot by Dragon Bird's roar, clearing an undisturbed path forward.
Everything will fall into place.
The journey is coming to an end, the ancient road is interrupted, and a dark abyss lies ahead, blocking everyone.
"There are so many meaningless tests." Shanhuang showed little interest.
"Jiejiejie..."
In the abyss, black mist filled the sky, ghosts cried and wolves howled, and various demons and ghosts struggled inside, seemingly trying to climb out and seek their lives.
"It seems to be called the Chaos Demon Abyss. It is the various demons that Sakyamuni suppressed and killed before he became enlightened. Many of them were filled in." Daxia Longque was born on the ancient earth and knows some of the secrets.
"It's a pity that times have changed." Tiandao Fangxiu said, his body glowed with golden light, shrouding Shukaku, walking on the evil spirits that rushed up one after another, and added: "The Age of Ending Law has finally affected Lingshan, they He no longer possesses the magic power he had during his lifetime, and can only exert his ancient saint-level combat power."
"If you hold a token, you will even encounter weaker enemies."
With ease, Lingshan was chosen as the first stop. Tiandao Fangxiu, who was deeply searching for opportunities, passed through the Chaos Demon Abyss without any surprises, successfully reconnected the broken path, and moved forward again.
Rumble... It's a bit similar to Journey to the West, where the waves soar into the sky and reach high into the sky. The last level is a vast ocean.
"Hongmeng's first judgment has a reputation, but fortunately I have endured without changing it. There are waves and winds, but it is still stable, and there is no end or beginning."
Possessing the body of Saint Zhunti and snatching away his Taoist fruits and creations, Tiandao Fangxiu casually threw six pure bamboos and turned them into a bottomless boat, while reciting the words that introduced the Saint from "Journey to the West". ：
"If the six dust-free things can be restored to oneness, all tribulations can be carried out safely and freely. A bottomless boat can't cross the sea, and it can ferry all living beings in the past and present."
Hearing this, Shanhuang let out a long sigh. By now, he was almost certain that Lingshan was really in decline. As long as Sakyamuni did not appear in person, then... with the cultivation of the Quasi-Emperor in the Third Heaven, he could easily kill him. .
"Weak."
Daxia Longque has a frivolous attitude: "The strongest existence in the sea is only in the Saint King realm."
With the help of the bottomless boat, the group of three people and one beast easily reached the other shore without being attacked by the evil ghosts and souls on the seabed. This time, they really didn’t have to fumble their way forward.
Tiandao didn't say a word, but he clearly felt the vastness, the fluctuation of Buddha nature, which was not inferior to ordinary quasi-emperors——
In his sight, the sacred aura filled the air and turned into a rain of light, crystal clear and brilliant.
In the core pure land, there is an ancient bodhi tree. Its branches are like horned dragons, extending in all directions. Its leaves are green and dripping, and there are waves of the great road emanating from it.
Under the ancient tree, there was a figure that made Bolan calm down. Shanhuang, who seemed to have regained some confidence, looked gloomy!
Daxia Longque even turned around and wanted to escape.
It was a middle-aged man of about thirty years old, sitting cross-legged alone, spotless, his body imprinted in the void, explaining what it means to be integrated with the avenue, as if he was born in the three time and space of the past, present and future.
Gautama Buddha.
Unlike those who have no sense of existence in the Conferred God Realm, in this trial, he was transformed by the spirit of the corpse of Emperor Amitabha of the West Desert, surpassing the ninth level of ordinary quasi-emperor.
"See Sakyamuni at the end of the road."
Fang Xiu, who regards Saint Zhunti as the way of heaven, always feels a little contrary to the way of heaven.
"You two are so useless, you are just a more advanced phantom, and you were actually frightened."
Shukaku has an extremely poisonous tongue.
Shanhuang was dubious, raised his eyes and looked up, seeing the colorful fallen flowers, and the crystal flowers falling from the top of the bodhi tree, making a rustling sound.
Where the ancient tree takes root, the Sakyamuni Buddha sits cross-legged under the tree, still blending in with all things and coexisting with the great road.
It's a pity that I can't bear to take a closer look!
Barely able to calm down, Daxia Longque also saw some clues. Indeed, the Buddha closed his eyes and let the falling flowers fall on his shoulders. He always seemed to have never moved in a thousand lifetimes, peaceful and detached. But it's too...empty.
Similar to the Buddha statues in temples!
"You are too late, Lingshan has been closed, and it will not reappear in the world until the sea dries up."
At this time, as if he noticed the scrutinizing gazes of several people, a wave of waves came as a reply. The figure with closed eyes under the Bodhi tree whispered, talking to them across time and space.
