Chapter 385 Mastering the Night Candle Manual
The banyan tree is four to five hundred meters long, and its branches are so overwhelming that it seems to cover the entire sky and earth in an instant, causing clouds to overflow.
"Auntie, there is... a sacred tree falling in the Bodhisattva Heaven!!!"
The boy was extremely excited, "Mr. Zhang in the school mentioned that the Buddha attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree. , this must be the Bodhi tree!”
“Could it be that the top of the Bodhi tree is connected to where the Living Buddhas live...”
Before the boy could finish speaking, the woman beside him quickly covered his mouth.
The woman's face turned pale, and her body was shaking uncontrollably, "Don't talk nonsense, we are just believers in the lower world who have made offerings to the Buddha for generations, and...it is not a sacred tree."
< br>Crowd commotion.
They saw clearly the true appearance of the banyan tree, and couldn't help but be frightened and terrified.
Compared with the black and white underworld, the banyan tree is brightly colored and is originally a symbol of auspiciousness, but the banyan tree is really weird and inexplicable.
The roots of the banyan tree were actually densely packed with mummies.
The number of mummies is tens of thousands, their facial features retain the frenzy before death, and their tails flash with a faint light, which is creepy.
Some of the mummies are still alive, chanting hysterically from their mouths.
But before long, the mummies became nutrients for the banyan tree.
The boy's pupils shrank, and then he recognized the mummy belatedly.
"Buddha servant! Auntie, she is a Buddha servant living in the clouds!!"
He knew that the living Buddha would only come to the world every ten years. After enlightening the believers, mortals could also become immortal. Servant of Buddha.
As a result, at least one hundred thousand living Buddhas were hanged under the banyan tree.
Sacred tree?
It’s obviously a magic tree! ! !
The woman murmured: "Gouwa, remember to recite the word "Randeng" at all times. Don't be disrespectful to the Buddha's servants and don't be disrespectful to the spiritual mountain."
Gouwa didn't hear a word, and a treasonous thought came into his heart. idea.
The Buddha servant at the bottom of the tree is really ugly, just like an insect chirping in the dark night. It makes a ferocious and urgent sound just before it dies.
While everyone was at a loss, the sound of gongs echoed in the mountains.
The woman turned around and saw the most virtuous and respected old man in the village approaching. His eyes looking at the banyan tree were also filled with fear.
As soon as the old man appeared, he calmed down the hundreds of villagers present.
Unlike the ragged clothes of the villagers, the old man was dressed in gold and silver, and his appearance and features were very similar to the Buddha servants they said.
That is, the fire-burning ghost.
At the same time, because the old man’s limbs were atrophied, he had to be carried by four people.
The attitude of the villagers towards the old man was as if the old man was the incarnation of a burning lamp, and the old man also enjoyed the respectful gazes he cast on him.
"This is a sign of disaster from heaven and a warning to us from the ancient Buddha of Deng Deng."
"It will be eternal night in two years. If we let it go, our descendants will never be able to ascend. We must Complete the Buddha statue as soon as possible!”
The old man looked around and nodded with satisfaction when he saw no one had any objections.
He didn’t know the origin of the banyan tree, but he also understood that it was definitely not related to Lingshan. It was only right to take advantage of the eternal night to become a Buddha servant.
As long as I ascend to the Lingshan Mountain, I will not care about the misfortunes and blessings of the world.
A strong man walked out of the crowd, "Mr. Yue, what do you think we should do?"
"Hurry up! Although the scented oil of the statue is enough to last forever, we must pay more for this disaster. ! ”
After Mr. Yue finished speaking, the eyes of the crowd flickered.
"Blood!!!"
As soon as Mr. Yue knocked on the rock wall, the crowd hesitated for a moment and then started walking towards the top of the mountain, including the frightened boy.
The Buddha statue is only carved in outline, but the clues can already be seen.
The expression is solemn, showing some compassion, the thumb and index finger of both hands are touching, the details of the cassock are exquisite, and the robe is partial to the right shoulder.
If Shen Lian were present, he would be able to tell it was the [Deng Deng Ancient Buddha] at a glance.
Everyone came to the top of the lamp-burning ancient Buddha.
The head of the Buddha statue is hollow, and inside is cooled wax oil. Although it appears black and gray, the wax oil has an extremely coquettish illusion.
Strangely, the candle wick is actually made of woven human sinew.
Lao Yue lowered his head and saw that the candle oil was only one-third, "Amitabha, bleed all of you. Don't worry, the longevity you have lost will be bestowed by the Living Buddha."
He His breathing was short, and any gift given by the Living Buddha was all nonsense caused by greed.
After saying that, someone slit his neck.
Blood flowed out.
There seems to be no difference between mortals in the underworld, but the blood is obviously different. If you look closely, it turns out to be wax oil, and more than that.
The flesh and blood are similar to silver, the hair is a good material for making cassocks, the bones shine with golden luster, and the internal organs are made of various gems.
Except for the children, everyone else drained their blood to fill the head of the Buddha statue.
They did not die physically, but they suddenly aged twenty or thirty years. Their hair roots were stained with snow white, and their longevity was almost exhausted.
Lao Yue licked his lips. By the time the living Buddha arrived, they would almost be dead.
There is no need to worry about the Living Buddha knowing about it.
“Continue to build the Buddha statue, and the Randen Ancient Buddha will protect us!”
The Buddha statue of the Randen Ancient Buddha is like the finishing touch, becoming extremely real, especially the eyes, filled with Compassionate and compassionate.
Is it a Buddha statue? It is clearly a re-creation of the true Buddha.
When Gou Wa was stunned, A Niang was already old and dying. Instead of feeling sad, the latter was as happy as if she had received atonement.
He didn't understand why believers had to give everything for the Buddha.
Gou Wa looked at the banyan tree again out of the corner of his eye. Its roots had penetrated into the soil, and green buds sprouted from the ground that was originally only black and white.
The crisp green grass looks distinctive and is dotted with wild flowers of different colors.
………
Inside the banyan tree.
Shen Lian frowned slightly and sat cross-legged in the retreat room motionless.
He has lost count of how many fire ghosts he has killed, but the mountains of pills in his stomach can prove that he will definitely make a lot of money.
Tens of thousands of Danguo are already being brewed from Ghost Gourd.
Bang bang bang.
There is an endless stream of muffled noises.
While the six internal organs are imprinting the scriptures, the indestructible body is also constantly advancing.
"Huh..."
Shen Lian just exhaled, like a tsunami hitting the wall, the tough tree trunk suddenly bulged out and almost tore apart.
"The perfection of the Immortal Zang can be expected. What kind of wine recipe is helpful for spiritual practice is completely insignificant in front of enough elixirs."
He was immersed in the power of digestive medicine. , his cultivation is simply advancing by leaps and bounds.
The six internal organs are imprinted at a speed visible to the naked eye. When the internal organs and scriptures are fused, mysterious changes similar to those of immortal bones and wisdom roots occur.
It can be seen that conventional means cannot kill the immortal at all.
"Hey, keep fishing."
While practicing, he secretly used his fishing powers. The roots of the banyan tree kept sinking into the clouds, and from time to time, a few fire ghosts would be attracted.
He also noticed the mortals from the underworld who shaped the Buddha statues.
When carving, mortals would fill the body of the Buddha statue with the flesh and bones of their ancestors. The lamp-burning Buddha statue always feels like it will wake up at any time.
“Let’s digest the power of the medicine first. We still don’t know the situation in the underworld yet.”
One thing is certain, Shen Lian has not yet seen any existence that can threaten him. Even mortals I haven’t mastered the basic cultivation techniques.
He also found no clues about the Xiaozhu Scripture.
"Perhaps the Night Candle Scripture is related to the unfinished Buddha statue." As time passed, the resources brought by the Fire-Burning Ghost were gradually exhausted.
The elixirs thus fertilized are enough to pile up into mountains, but for Shen Lian, it is just enough to imprint the six organs into scriptures.
After the six internal organs were branded, the internal organs turned into scriptures.
You can see scriptures flowing inside and outside.
Shen Lian opened his eyes, shook the empty ghost gourd, and controlled the roots of the banyan tree to catch the fire ghost slightly melancholy.
"The next steps of the liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys should not be difficult, the key is the four hearts."
"Before arriving at Lingshan, we must set foot in the last realm of the earthly immortal, and then find the reborn immortality for promotion to the heavenly immortal. Spiritual Veins."
"Huh?"
Shen Lian looked up at the sky. The clouds in the underworld were particularly thick, and for some reason, the light was decreasing day by day.
Looking at the mountain villages again, the statue of the ancient lamp-burning Buddha has been carved.
The crowd brought food and knelt at the feet of the Buddha statue. Through their discussions, they learned that the underworld was about to face an eternal night of darkness.
When eternal night falls, the fire-burning ghosts they call Buddha servants will fall to the ground.
"It's interesting. Maybe we can harvest another wave of resources, so that we can complete the imprinting of organs other than the four hearts."
"Just be careful of the giant fire ghost."
Shen Lian paid attention to the outside world. Within a few days, the sky was already dark, and when the real eternal night came, it became even more chaotic.
.........
"Eternal night has fallen!!!"
The overwhelming darkness is spreading, and wherever you pass, you can still hear the chanting of the fire-burning ghost, and similar sounds. The movement of food.
"Quickly, quickly, light the Buddha statue!"
The candle wick on the Buddha's head was floating in the wind. After being lit by the villagers, the light emitted barely covered the surrounding area for more than ten meters.
Gou Wa stared blankly at Yong Ye. He had just been born when he came last time, and his memory had long been blurred. Now he felt fear intuitively.
Facing the banyan tree, he had no fear, but the eternal night frightened him.
“Eat all!!!”
The figure of a fire ghost flashed past, its claws grabbing the mutilated corpse.
The corpse was not of the same kind, but came from another nearby mountain village. It stared with eyes wide open and was soon torn into pieces by a group of fire ghosts.
"No..."
Gouwa took a few steps back and stared at the darkness in confusion.
Where is the living Buddha descending? It is clearly a hundred ghosts walking at night! ! !
A large number of fire ghost moths flew toward the Buddha statue like a flame, greedily sucking in the light, and then the tumor-like body on the tail became increasingly hot.
The candle wick of the Buddha statue burns more intensely, supporting countless fire-burning ghosts.
The fire-burning ghosts ascended one after another and disappeared into the clouds.
But not long after flying, the giant fire ghosts hiding in the dark began to eat, not just one or two, but nearly a hundred in number.
Of course, the giant fire-burning ghosts have high and low levels of Taoism, and most of them are comparable to human immortals.
The underworld forms a set of extremely weird ecological chains.
Gouwa stood there at a loss, feeling nausea welling up in his heart. At the same time, he also noticed Mr. Yue's facial features that were distorted with excitement.
Am I crazy?
Or is the world crazy?
Gouwa subconsciously wanted to see clearly the current situation of the banyan tree, and found that there was also a faint glimmer of light on the branches of the banyan tree.
The dim light also attracted groups of fire ghosts, all of which were penetrated by the roots of the banyan tree, and the branches gave birth to pill fruits of different colors.
“Gou, don’t wait and see, be careful that the Living Buddha takes your life!”
The woman pulled the dog over worriedly, but the latter stared intently as if he was possessed. Then he couldn't help but murmured: "There is someone under the tree..."
"What?"
" The ancient Buddha of Lantern is here, the evil spirits are gone, the evil spirits are gone."
The woman repeated anxiously, and the elder Yue snorted in displeasure.
Gou Wa added: "Auntie, I read it right. There is someone under the tree. Is it the Sakyamuni that the teacher in the school mentioned?"
The woman covered Gouwa's mouth and still let Mr. Yue listen.
"That's a disaster! If you are still stubborn, get out of the village!!"
"This world is the Buddhist world of the ancient Randen Buddha, and we are all the ancient Buddha. The believers cannot change for generations!”
There was a threat in Mr. Yue’s eyes, and he motioned for others to move closer to Gou Wa.
"Don't kill my son, he just suffered from hysteria temporarily when external evil entered his body..."
The woman protected the dog, but before she could finish her words, an infinite amount of light came from the direction of the banyan tree, and most of the darkness disappeared in an instant.
She followed Gou Wa’s gaze and saw an unforgettable scene in her life.
Shen Lian soared to just over twenty meters tall, holding a bone blade. Because of the lantern technique, a bright halo rose behind his head.
Immediately afterwards, three strange beasts appeared near the banyan tree.
The woman only felt that the dog in her arms was hot all over, and she naturally made strange movements, and her breathing became rhythmic.
While breathing in and out of breath, Gou Wa has already taken the first step in martial arts.
Lao Yue was not in the mood to cause trouble, and took a deep breath when he felt Shen Lian's murderous intent.
Bang!
After the muffled sound, Shen Lian turned into an afterimage and disappeared.
The muscles in his body contracted, his strength increased exponentially, and he reached the nearest giant fire ghost in two steps.
One punch.
The giant fire-burning ghost is no more than a human immortal, so how can it withstand the physical body that has been tempered for thousands of times.
Hit his head with his fist without any resistance.
Shen Lian grabbed the body and threw it to the banyan tree, and a prompt appeared on the career panel.
[Digested into a Buddha and a fire-burning ghost, unbounded spiritual root experience +0.19%]
[Martial Arts Sutra Experience +0.01%]
Shen Lian raised his eyebrows, and there was an unfamiliar sutra in Niwan Palace. The font was made of burning flames, but it seemed like a bright spot.
The Martial Arts Scripture wants to swallow up the scriptures and create a new chapter.
Shen Lian suppressed the martial arts scripture and instead took the initiative to carry out simple refining. With the lotus platform sitting in charge, this scripture could not affect the rhizome.
【True Sutra: Xiaozhu (Theravada 1.67%)】
"Jie Jie Jie, it's not bad, you forced me to go on a killing spree, right?"
Shen Lian vaguely glanced over his head. Ever since he came to the underworld, there was an inexplicable peep, and he was sure to peep after the eternal night fell. of truth.
Peeping has nothing to do with the giant fire-burning ghost. It is an existence from the Lingshan Mountain in the West.
"Are they the Buddhas under the lamp-burning throne? Let's look at their attitude first."
Shen Lian was a little uneasy, but thinking that Sha Wujing also chose to go to the Western Spiritual Mountain through the underworld, it showed that Lantern Ancient Buddha does not necessarily have malicious intentions.
He doesn't understand the current power structure in Western Lingshan, but the Third Buddha is likely to survive.
“No matter what, brothers, let’s start dinner and catch all the fire-burning ghosts in one go. Whether you can survive the Immortal Zang stage depends on whether you work hard or not!”
Taotie raised his head to the sky and roared, and the volume came Just over fifty meters.
The stone eggs change constantly, taking the form of dragons and insects, staring at them eagerly.
Di Ting was lying on the ground, but the door of the palace with the plaques of Xie Yue Sanxin Cave and Wuzhuang Temple was opened, and Shen Lian's brothers came out in formation.
