Chapter 18: The Reappearance of Myths
"All dead, all dead......"
Meng Qi and the others were planning to spy on what happened to Lingshan in the past through the obsession of Dangshanjun and the white-haired monster's remnants, but two completely different monsters actually made such a self-talk at the same time, you know, one of them is the corpse of a Lingshan monk, covered with white hair, and the other is a monster that is about to condense the true body of the heavenly snake, different perspectives, different camps, and different identities, but they have left a similar obsession, and issued the same confused and frightened words, which makes people feel terrified, how can they not be frightened by what changes have occurred in Lingshan at the beginning?
Is it the slaughter of both sides, the Nirvana of the Buddha and the Bodhisattva, the fall of the great saint demon gods, the tragic death breath of the legend and even the higher realm swept across Lingshan, forever changing the laws of heaven and earth, so that Dangshan Jun and Lingshan monks both suffered an unforgettable impact before they died, or did there really an unexpected change, which made them extremely shocked, and they couldn't believe it when they died, and they couldn't let it go, so that they always had obsessions for many years?
Meng Qi held the scabbard in his left hand, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes like a dead volcano, and the remaining obsessions of Dangshan Jun and Lingshan Monk suddenly exploded, like fireworks blooming, illuminating the air and condensing into a blurred picture.
Their primordial spirit was dispersed early, and the sea of their souls dried up, and they couldn't awaken the memories of reincarnation in the past world or the bits and pieces of their experiences in this life like the living dead, so as to restore the truth of the Battle of Lingshan, and they could only see the pictures that impressed them the most through obsession!
The water curtain is hazy, the light is dense, and there are only two pictures of the obsession of the Lingshan monks: one is the overwhelming demon clan rushing into the Lingshan, and his eyes are focused on a golden giant monkey wearing gold chain mail, stepping on the lotus silk steps, and wearing a phoenix-winged purple gold crown.
Dangshan-kun's obsession only formed a picture. The void shattered like glass, layer by layer, and the darkness mixed with terrifying and strange black shadows was like a tide, drowning it.
The "fireworks" have been extinguished, the little flashy swaying and falling, and the obsession of Dangshan Jun and the Lingshan monks has completely dissipated.
The picture they saw was beyond the expectations of Meng Qi and others, not the death of ten thousand Buddhas, nor the fall of demons, but a scene of the arrival of the Nine Shadows and the reappearance of hell!
"In the battle of Lingshan in the past, there was a third-party force to do the profit?" Jiang Zhi frowned slightly, but she did not show weakness. Voiced his doubts and speculations.
Meng Qi stood still for two breaths, and slowly spoke: "The Demon Saint led the people to hit the Spirit Mountain after the fall of the Heavenly Court, and before that, the Demon Lord had already fallen, and the remaining Heavenly Killing Dao people and other evil gods and demons of the Nine Shadows were not on the other side, so it was unlikely that the Demon Saint would not be able to protect some important allies and subordinates......"
Taking 10,000 steps back, even if the Heavenly Killing Daoist made a breakthrough, according to the records, he was also beaten back to Jiuyou by the Demon Saint of the Demon Saint Spear without the Demon Saint Spear, and there was a considerable gap in the strength of the two sides.
"Anyway. This is a possibility that cannot be ruled out, and we will see. Zhao Heng said.
After the obsession subsided, Dangshanjun's body quickly turned into sludge and pus, in this weird spiritual mountain. The strong body that should not be corrupted has decayed!
Meng Qi's expression was unwavering, and the long knife he held in his left hand was still hidden in the sheath, like dusty years, and he took a step. Continuing forward, Jiang Zhiwei walked side by side with him, and Zhao Heng and Ruan Yushu were a few steps behind.
The further afield. The void cracks that tore through everything and devoured King Kong became denser and denser, and the roads that could be passed became narrower and narrower.
From time to time, the wind melted the flesh and bones, fragmented the original god, Zhao Heng's imperial robe flew out a little bit of yellow light, turning into a real dragon coiled, Ruan Yushu and Jiang Zhiwei's immortal robe and heavenly clothes also had their own visions, and the sky was full of light, blocking the roar of this almost samadhi divine wind.
Meng Qi's green shirt swayed, his hair fluttered, his face sank like water, his eyes were as silent as night, not pale gold, not shining, just so ordinary to the front, it seemed that this was a common wind.
Winding and twisting, the long road is long, the four of them don't know how long they have walked, how high they have climbed, and they are surrounded by a zombie-like Bodhisattva Arhat and a big demon god without danger.
Walking and walking, a Buddhist temple suddenly appeared in front of it, in the case of collapse seen along the way, it is basically intact, the tiles are glazed, the bricks are gold, reflecting the thunder, beautiful, like the fairy palace.
And at the door of the Buddha Temple, there was a huge dark golden figure sitting cross-legged!
Meng Qi and Jiang Zhiwei stopped almost at the same time as they discovered this figure, and with a bang, Jiang Zhiwei's long sword let out a dragon groan, and it was horizontal in front.
This figure is shaped like an old man, the whole body is dark gold, the eyebrows are very long, extending out of the face, he is wearing a golden robe, his hands are clenched into fists, and there is a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, which seems to contain the truth of the world, all kinds of impermanence, which makes people have an inexplicable feeling of realizing the true meaning of Buddha and Zen.
Around the Buddha temple, there are no cracks in the void, and the Borneo flowers bloom and fall endlessly behind the dark gold figure, when the flowers bloom, each flower has a pure land, a heavy universe, all can see the smile full of Zen, when the flowers fall, then all things are silent.
The dark gold figure was there, as if it was sitting in the middle of countless universes and pure lands.
Flowers bloom and fall from time to time.
There is no need for other thoughts, just a preliminary induction, Meng Qi can be sure that this is the remnant of a legendary power, and the dark gold figure in front of him is not a Buddha, but a great Bodhisattva, a great arhat!
Only when you perform "self-esteem" can you manifest the shadow of the illusory golden Buddha, and now you have really come to reality?
As soon as Jiang Zhiwei, Ruan Yushu and Zhao Heng had similar thoughts, they heard Meng Qi say:
"It's the Venerable Kasya......"
Yes, this is the Mahakalpa, the first of the ten disciples of the Buddha!
He is a great arhat, and Ananda is called in the Pure Land of Supo, is one of the two most likely to inherit the Taoist system after the Buddha is destroyed, "the Buddha is a flower, the Buddha is smiling" allusions are famous in the world, is the ancestor of Zen Buddhism, the root of the nominal inheritance of Shaolin Temple, and the Dharma body proved by the flower is the Dharma body of the Ka Ye.
The candidates standing on both sides of the statue of the Buddha are either Manjushri and Puxian Bodhisattva, or Kasa and Ananda, which shows that their status in the Pure Land of Suva is better than that of many Buddhas, just like Guanyin in the Pure Land of Bliss, the Bodhisattva of the Sun and the Moonlight in the Pure Land of Great Trend and Glass.
According to the previous inference, Meng Qi suspected that Kasya, like Ananda, had entered the last sea of suffering and attained enlightenment, but he had not yet proved the power of the Buddhahood!
-- The distinction between the high and low levels of the various types of golden bodies and Dao bodies as evidenced by the Dharma Body. It mainly refers to the limits that may be reached in the future, such as the golden body of Rulai, the true body of the beginning of the beginning pointing directly to the other side, and even the hope of the fruit of the Dao, the Dharma body of Amitabha, the golden body of Bodhi, the body of Lingbao Dao, the body of Tai Chi morality and the difference between them, the Dharma body of the Buddha of the Buddha of Ka Ye, the golden body of the Great Compassion and the Bodhisattva of Great Compassion and Freedom, etc., may be higher, the golden body of the ordinary Bodhisattva can at most step into the heavenly immortals, and the golden body of the Arhat is the most immortal, if you want to make more breakthroughs, you need to enlighten the Dharma with difficulty. Sublimate the golden body, or step by step accumulate small wishes for big wishes, and use the grand wish method to elevate.
Of course, when the golden body of Rulai and the golden body of Arhat are in the human fairy realm, there will be a huge gap in mana, supernatural powers, martial arts, etc., which is a quality advantage.
"Venerable Jiaye......" Jiang Zhiwei, Ruan Yushu and Zhao Heng sensed away, and their moods were a little shaken, this is Venerable Jiaye?
Mahakalpa?
Illusory characters that previously only existed in myths, legends, or ancient Buddhist scriptures really appeared in front of their own eyes!
Although I have long known that there will be similar encounters when I go deep into Lingshan, when I really meet it. There is still a dream-like feeling, and I have returned to the age of mythology from the present!
They didn't doubt Meng Qi's statement, not just because the flowers were communicating with different universes and the Pure Land. Moreover, the characteristics of Venerable Kasya, it is obvious that he is holding his hands into fists, not namas!
It is said that the past body of the Venerable Kasa had great merit in worshiping the Buddha, and this body has great light. It is easy to affect the sight and perception of others, so make a fist to cover the light, and pity others. It does not compete with the Buddha, and it also has the meaning of Zen Buddhism "heart to heart, heart to heart, no text, and no teaching outside the teaching".
The myths of the past are now in front of them, Jiang Zhiwei and the others are a little in awe, only Meng Qi's face is calm, his eyes are deep, and he still looks like all kinds of emotions are hidden.
"I didn't expect Venerable Jiaye to also pass away in Lingshan, I was afraid that only the Demon Saint and Ananda came out of the ......" Zhao Heng sighed.
What really happened then?
Moreover, the golden body of Venerable Ka Ye is the only body along the road that has not been entangled in death qi and has appeared corrupted!
Suddenly, Jiang Zhi sighed slightly: "His back!"
Meng Qi looked up, his eyes were heavy, and he didn't see anything special, but he naturally "saw" the back of Mokogaye, where there was a huge palm print, which was pressed in the center, inlaid in the dark gold, full of the impermanence of all things, spreading into the golden body, eliminating all vitality.
This is the fatal wound of the Kasya!
Who gave him the fatal slap?
At this moment, two tears suddenly slipped down from Ka Ye's smiling eyes!
They are crystal clear like glass, not stained with a trace of dust, not like the blood and tears on the faces of Arhat Bodhisattva zombies, but like tears that would have been shed forever before, and now they have been impacted by foreign breath and finally flowed out.
Is it for the destruction of the Pure Land, for the death of the Ten Thousand Buddhas, or for oneself?
Tears slid down the dark golden face, across the huge golden body, and fell into the dust, and the surrounding Borneo flowers were completely extinguished and no longer bloomed!
Meng Qi suddenly felt the meaning of extreme danger, and was about to speak, when he heard the sound of Jiang Zhi's slight sword singing, and saw Venerable Jiaye's fists suddenly open.
Great merit, great light, the sun shone on this place, as if the tide had flooded Meng Qi and the others, so that Meng Qi could no longer sense other things, and could no longer see things outside of himself.
He gripped the hilt of his knife in his right hand, as if trying to pull it out, but held back.
The light dissipated, Meng Qi had changed his position, and it was not a Buddhist temple in front of him, but a cliff, Jiang Zhiwei, Ruan Yushu and Zhao Heng were all gone.
Separated by the remnants of legend?
Meng Qi's heart moved, turned around, stepped into the air step by step, and quickly shuttled through the terrifying and dangerous dark cracks, looking for Jiang Zhiwei and the others while moving towards the depths.
An Arhat's golden body suddenly turned out, clenched his fist and struck at Meng Qi, the void shook, the wind howled, condensed into a bondage, like a star really shaking down.
The wind swept Meng Qi, but it was like a bubble, it couldn't be entangled, it couldn't be restrained, and the fist always had an unshrinkable distance from him.
Meng Qi moved forward quickly, dodging the zombie Arhats, zombie Bodhisattvas and zombie demon kings and gods that came out, their raids were always a little worse, either close to the end of the world, or destined to miss!
After running for a while, Meng Qi suddenly stopped, because there was a huge dark golden figure blocking the way in front of him, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and there were flowers of Borneo under his feet, and his eyes had no aura and brilliance, it was the golden body of the great arhat of Venerable Jiaye!
Legend has it that even the golden body of the power of creation!
Faced with this, Meng Qi suddenly sighed.
Sure enough, the one in the depths of Lingshan wanted to force himself to go out in advance and kill the knife that had been pained for ten years and ten years of pain. (To be continued......)
