Chapter 396 The Buddha is Dead
In the vast clouds.
Lin Ye was surrounded by clouds and mist. This scene reminded him of the scene in front of the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall.
The difference is that at that time there was a lotus platform to absorb the clouds and mist for him, but this time there was no lotus platform.
And in front of him, there was a figure of Buddha in the clouds.
Unfortunately, Lin Ye couldn't see the Buddha's figure clearly.
Every time the Buddha's light bloomed, it would disperse the clouds and mist, but then the surrounding clouds and mist would surge up and swallow the Buddha again.
It seemed that these clouds were unwilling to allow Fang Rang to reveal the Buddha's figure.
"Is it the same as the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall?"
A guess suddenly flashed through Lin Ye's mind. There was fog on the cliff of Zhenwu Temple, which prevented people from going down the cliff to observe the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall. He originally thought that these fogs might be formed by the unique environment of the cliff.
But now, seeing the Buddha's body being repeatedly swallowed by the clouds, he thought of another possibility.
The clouds and mist appeared because of the appearance of the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall, or it can be said that the existence of the clouds and mist is to prevent people from seeing the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall.
As for the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall, it is definitely a martial arts treasure. When he briefly described the situation to Lao Shi, Lao Shi shared the same opinion.
There are nine patterns in the Zhenwu Wall of Transmission of Power. If you comprehend four of them, you can become a Martial Saint. What about the remaining five?
If one has comprehended all nine sets, what realm will one reach?
No matter it is martial arts, Taoism or Buddhism, after reaching the realm of Martial Saint and Yuanshen, including the Golden Body realm, there is no difference in realm, they are all the realm of Void God.
Above the realm of virtual gods are gods, but Buddhists call them Buddhas.
The nine sets of Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall are probably no worse than this Buddha's shadow.
But both have clouds and fog, is this a coincidence?
Lin Ye didn't believe in such a coincidence.
At this moment, the outside world!
But it was a completely different scene.
Whether it was the monks from Candeng Temple or the four monks from Mantuo Temple and Leiyin Temple, they were all shocked at the standing Buddha above Lin Ye’s head.
This standing Buddha has undergone great changes from the original one. He is now wearing a cassock with tens of thousands of Buddhist scriptures engraved on it. There is a third eye standing upright between the Buddha's eyebrows.
But this was not what shocked them the most. The Standing Buddha had a third eye, which was a sign of entering the Golden Body Realm.
A characteristic of the Golden Body Realm of Buddhism is that the condensed standing Buddha will have his own magical powers. This is the same as martial arts. After entering the realm of Martial Saint, one will master a magical power.
The magical powers of Buddhism are on the standing Buddha. For example, there is a third vertical eye between the eyebrows of Lin Ye's standing Buddha, which means that the magical powers that Lin Ye has comprehended are related to this eye.
There are many magical powers related to eyes in Buddhism, so they can actually accept that Lin Ye has comprehended magical powers related to eyes.
A small part of the shock was because Lin Ye was able to enter the Golden Body Realm so quickly.
Normally, the initiation ceremony takes about seven days for a person to enter the golden body realm, and sometimes even as long as a month.
The fact that Lin Ye was able to enter so quickly meant that even without initiation, Lin Ye would only need three years of practice at most to enter the Golden Body Realm.
What really shocked them was that a Buddhist scripture appeared behind the standing Buddha statue of Lin Ye.
A word "Buddha".
"Beginning of Buddhist Scriptures!"
The Golden Body Realm monks of the Mantuo Temple were the first to exclaim in surprise. As powerful people in the Golden Body Realm, there were not many things in the world that could make them so surprised and moved, but the Beginning of Buddhism Sutra happened to be one of them.
If it were an ordinary monk in the Golden Body Realm, he might not know the existence of the Buddhist scriptures, but Mantuo Temple and Leiyin Temple, as one of the three major Buddhist temples, have a long heritage that can almost be traced back to the origin of Buddhism.
There is a top-secret record in the scripture library of Mantuo Temple and Leiyin Temple.
According to Buddhist legend, the founder of Buddhism, the Buddha, attained enlightenment under a Bodhi tree and wrote down Buddhist scriptures, after which Buddhism came into being.
But according to the records of the two temples, although the Buddha attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, the reason for his enlightenment was because he achieved the initial Buddha realm.
The scripture that represents the beginning of Buddhism.
It was based on this scripture that the Buddha realized the true meaning of Buddhism, founded Buddhism and passed down Buddhist scriptures.
There are tens of thousands of Buddhist scriptures, and the Buddha originally created 108 volumes of scriptures, each of which was compiled based on the original Buddhist scriptures.
In other words, if there were no initial Buddhist scriptures, there would not be the tens of thousands of Buddhist scriptures that came later.
For Buddhist disciples, to be disrespectful, the Original Buddhist Sutra may be more important than the Buddha, because the person who obtains the Original Buddhist Sutra may become the next Buddha.
And now the scripture that appeared behind Lin Yezhan Buddha was exactly the first word of the Buddhist Scripture.
In addition to the record of this secret, their scripture repository also contains the text of the original Buddhist scripture, but it only consists of three words.
"Could it be that Lin Ye is really the Holy Son of my Buddhist sect?"
At this moment, the seven Golden Body Realm masters couldn't help but feel shaken. If they were not the Holy Sons of Buddhism, why would Buddhist scriptures appear when they entered the Golden Body Realm?
"Amitabha, now is not the time to think about this. Let's work harder and make the scripture reveal a few more words."
A monk from Mantuo Temple spoke, and his words were recognized by the other six monks present.
Even though the three monks who had received initiations at Candeng Temple were not far from passing away after receiving the initiations, they agreed with this idea at this moment.
If I hear the truth in the morning, I can die in the evening.
If one could read the earliest Buddhist scriptures before passing away, one would have no regrets in death.
However, what was difficult for these people to accept was that no matter how they injected Buddhist power into the formation, the scriptures not only did not continue to appear, but the only words that appeared actually began to dim.
This scene made them look regretful. Was such a good opportunity going to be lost?
Just when a few people were discouraged, a Buddhist chant rang out, and everyone saw an old monk in plain clothes appear in front of them.
Amitabha.
The old monk chanted a Buddhist name softly, looking at the scriptures behind Lin Yezhan Buddha with a burning gaze. The next moment, a majestic Buddhist light was injected into the halo above Lin Yezhan Buddha's head.
This time, the Buddha's light was no longer in wisps like the previous seven people, but in whole pieces.
"Uncle Master!"
The Golden Body Realm of Mantuo Temple recognized the old monk's identity, his uncle, who was also a powerful Void God Realm master of Mantuo Temple.
The old monk ignored the seven of them. He frowned as he looked at the scripture that did not continue to dim. He then said in a deep voice, "Let's attack together. If we miss this opportunity, we may not have it again."
As the old monk finished speaking, two more figures appeared in the formation.
Seeing these two people, the expressions of the two monks from Leiyin Temple also became solemn. At this moment, Master Hongyuan, who was in charge of guarding not far below the mountain, saw one of the figures and his eyes narrowed slightly.
With the appearance of the three powerful masters in the Void God Realm, the Buddha's light in the entire formation immediately became extremely bright. The dim scriptures continued to shine again, and even the outline of the second word appeared faintly.
…
…
"What are these people doing? Damn it, this kid is really lucky, this is OK."
In Lin Ye's mind, Lao Shi was naturally aware of the changes that had taken place in the formation. When he saw the three old monks in the Void God Realm appear and replace the three monks who were originally responsible for the initiation in Candeng Temple, his tone became strange.
There was actually a hint of envy in that tone.
At this moment, Lin Ye was unaware of Lao Shi's clarity, nor did he know the changes within the formation. At this moment, his eyes were fixed on the Buddha's shadow.
The Buddha's shadow, which was about to be completely swallowed up by the clouds and mist, suddenly emitted a brighter Buddha light. This time, the Buddha's light was not swallowed up by the clouds and mist. On the contrary, it directly dispersed the clouds and mist.
The entire Buddha's shadow was revealed.
This was the first time that Lin Ye saw the complete figure of a Buddha.
But what shocked Lin Ye even more was yet to come.
Buddha Shadow actually spoke.
"What is Buddha?"
Lin Ye was stunned. What do you mean? You, the real Buddha, ask me what Buddha is?
"What is Buddha?"
Without waiting for Lin Ye to answer, the Buddha body continued to speak.
"To save people from suffering and to be merciful is a Buddha." Lin Ye thought for a while and gave his answer.
However, the Buddha seemed not to hear and continued asking.
"What is Buddha?"
Lin Ye frowned and answered again: "If you have the Dharma in your heart, you can relieve the three thousand sufferings and save all living beings."
"What is Buddha?"
However, the Buddha continued to ask.
Still not right?
Lin Ye believed that these two answers were already standard answers.
“It’s impossible that one can become a Buddha by cultivating to the divine realm.” Lin Ye subconsciously muttered an answer that he himself felt was possible.
However, what he did not expect was that his muttering actually caused the Buddha's body to react differently.
This time, the Buddha body did not ask what Buddha is.
Instead, he burst into laughter.
This laughter was full of madness and pride, especially the pair of Buddha's eyes, which looked at Lin Ye for the first time.
Those were a pair of deep, expressionless eyes, but the moment these eyes stared at him, Lin Ye's whole body trembled, because he saw another scene.
It was a blood-stained sky. Hanging in the sky was not the scorching sun, but a blood moon. However, above the blood moon, there were strange corpses .
The first corpse made Lin Ye's pupils shrink rapidly. It was a Buddha statue with a long spear stuck in its chest. The long spear directly pierced the Buddha's chest, and the Buddha's head was missing an eyeball.
One-eyed Buddha!
Lin Ye recognized it immediately. This Buddha was the same one he saw in the Tianwai Tian Tower. That Buddha had no eyeballs, but just one eye socket was enough to make him feel the terrifying existence of life-threatening danger.
Such a terrifying Buddha was pierced through the chest by an icy spear and was hanging in the sky.
And this is not the only thing. There are too many corpses under this blood moon.
But without exception, these corpses were pierced by a long spear.
“Is this someone butchering the Buddha?”
Lin Ye was extremely shocked at this moment. Was it done by one person, or a group of people?
The reason for this doubt is very simple, it is that identical halberd.
Lin Ye was not sure whether these dead Buddhas in this scene under the blood moon were killed at the same moment or at different times, and were finally condensed in this scene.
But the shock this scene brought to him was still huge, even overwhelming.
Even though Lao Shi told him that the best way for him to improve his strength was to kill gods, Lin Ye also figured out something from Lao Shi's words that this so-called killing gods was not what it meant literally.
He knew Lao Shi very well. This guy often boasted or flattered himself.
Well, it's a bit like, you are just going to the construction site to move bricks, but in Lao Shi's mouth you can become a rectangular solid directional mobile engineer.
But now, what was revealed before his eyes was the real Buddha-slaying.
And the Buddha who was slaughtered was not just one, but there were seven Buddha bodies under the blood moon sky.
"Why do you want me to see this picture? What does this have to do with the question just now?"
Lin Ye murmured, what is Buddha?
Are we trying to tell ourselves that these so-called Buddhas are not real Buddhas?
Is the real Buddha immortal?
Are these Buddhas fake?
But if these Buddhas are fake Buddhas, then what is the real Buddha? The strong ones in the realm of gods are not real Buddhas. Is it only the so-called eternal Buddha that Lao Shi mentioned?
The real Buddha and Taoist?
Lin Ye thought of Lao Shi’s words. In every world, there are Taoism and Buddhism. Both Buddhism and Taoism have true eternal gods.
At this moment Lin Ye’s mind was a little confused. What is Buddha?
Who killed these Buddhas?
And why did this Buddha's body let him see such a scene?
"Wait, what is this?"
Just as Lin Ye was thinking, he suddenly discovered a scene that he had previously ignored. It was because the scene he saw at first glance was too shocking that he did not notice a detail of the scene in front of him.
Under the blood-moon sky, there is a Buddhist city on the land, with pagodas and houses, but there is one building that is out of tune with the others.
Most importantly, in front of this building, there is a flag.
third!
Seeing the two words on the flag clearly, Lin Ye got goosebumps at this moment.
The third pawnshop.
The mysterious Bai Jinye, the man from the third pawnshop.
Even though he was already wary enough of the Third Pawn Shop, he still didn't expect that the Third Pawn Shop would appear in this scene.
The origin of the third pawnshop can be traced back so early?
What made Lin Ye even more nervous was that, as he was watching, a figure walked out of the door of the pawnshop.
The appearance of this figure brought Lin Ye's shock to the extreme.
White Jinye.
He could confirm that this figure was Bai Jinye.
As a guy who could barely compete with him in terms of looks, even though Bai Jinye's character had been shrunk ten times in the picture before him, he still recognized him at a glance.
But at this moment, Bai Jinye was not wearing white clothes, but black clothes.
Bai Jinye in black walked out of the pawnshop, looked up at the sky, stood there in silence for a while, and the next moment Bai Jinye grabbed in the air.
The corpse of a Buddha fell in front of him.
Bai Jinye was holding a piece of paper in his hand. Lin Ye couldn't see what was written on the paper. He only saw Bai Jinye sticking the paper on the Buddha's corpse.
Then, the strangest scene happened.
