One emperor

Chapter 1556
"It's not an illusion, it's just an illusion. Just like me, the people you see are real, but what you see is not their true face."

Ye Dong was really helpless with the Zen-like way of speaking of Buddhist practitioners. He smiled wryly and said, "Master, the boy is rather stupid. Can you explain clearly what's going on?"

The old monk was silent, as if he was thinking about how to explain to Ye Dong, and then he said again after a while: "Simply put, in fact, the entire Buddhist land of the Western Regions is not what outsiders see. Illusions are artificially arranged, a bit similar to one of the six great supernatural powers of Buddhism. What the real world is like, I am afraid that only the Dharma Eye can see it. Anything in the Buddha's land, even if It is the communication of the soul, and it will be known by certain people."

Everything in the Buddhist Land of the Western Regions is an illusion artificially arranged!
This sentence really frightened Ye Dong. You must know that the Buddha Land of the Western Regions has existed for so long that it is impossible to calculate, but it is all false and artificially arranged. Then how strong is the person who arranged it? profound?
To put it bluntly, this kind of Buddhist magical power called Shenjingtong seems to have opened up an independent world.

In this world, the pioneer is the master, who can set everything according to his ideas. Naturally, he can know everything that happens in the world, even if it is the communication of the soul.

However, Ye Dong understood some problems, that is why the old monk apologized to himself, because he is also from the Buddha Land, so his words and deeds can't be hidden from the person who created the Buddha Land, so he can only tell himself Block it.

But, why did the old monk hide it from that person?
"Who is this person? What is his purpose for doing this?"

Ye Dong asked the most critical question.

The old monk was silent for a while before he said: "Who is this person, I don't know, I don't even know if they are one person or a group of people, as for their purpose of doing this... Ye Shizhu, do you know?" Know what is the power of faith."

What a coincidence, Fu Wen Ye Dong had just explained the power of faith, and now the old monk actually asked about it.

"Know!"

"The power of faith is his or their purpose! They imitated the Paradise of Ultimate Bliss and arranged the Buddhist land in the Western Regions, so that all the Buddhist practitioners who entered it would respect them more and more, and they would be more willing to stay, maintain their beliefs, and maintain their beliefs. Respect for certain people or things in my heart, and these beliefs and respects will be transformed into endless power of belief..."

The old monk's words stopped suddenly at this point, but Ye Dong didn't need him to continue, because he already knew.

However, even though he, as the descendant of the Devil Emperor and the Lord of the Blood Prison, has experienced countless appalling things, but all of them, added up, are not as good as what the few short sentences he heard now brought to him. He was so shocked, even a wave of fear surged in his heart!
The rune Ye Dong said very clearly that the Buddha names proclaimed by Buddhist practitioners are different, but each kind of Buddha name represents a Buddha, chanting scriptures and paying respect to Buddha, these all express the respect and belief of Buddhist practitioners for these Buddhas, these are The power of faith will flow into the bodies of those Buddhas, increasing the power of the Buddhas.

This kind of power can also be understood as life!
When Ye Dong heard this, he didn't have time to ask further questions, but now he thought of a question, are those Buddhas still alive?

If they are dead, who will the power of faith give to?
If they didn't die, then these powers of faith would be transformed into vitality and flow into their bodies, so could it be understood that they could use these powers of faith to obtain——eternal life?
This is why Ye Dong is afraid, and why the old monk can't continue talking!
It turns out that the people who are chanted by these Buddhist practitioners all the time and worshiped every day are very likely to be the ones who snatch their faith and live by their piety.

To put it bluntly, there is a group of people who want to obtain eternal life for themselves, so they arranged the "Pure Land" of the Buddhist Land of the Western Regions, so that the Buddhist practitioners in it can be addicted to it, and they are willing to help them continue their lives. It's a pity These Buddhist practitioners are not only unaware, but are becoming more and more pious.

"Will the power of faith cause any harm to those who dedicate their faith?"

Just through Ye Dong's question, the old monk knew that Ye Dong understood the meaning of his words, and sighed: "The power of faith also comes from the soul!"

Although there is no direct answer, this sentence has already explained that dedicating the power of faith will also hurt one's soul.

Take the lives of others to prolong your own!

Could it be that this is the truth about the practice of the Buddhist lands and Buddhist practitioners in the Western Regions?
This is what makes Ye Dong horrified. If this is the truth, then all Buddhist practitioners practice hard all their lives and go through all kinds of difficulties and dangers. In fact, it is to make their souls become other people's "food" for others to prolong their lives.

Seeming to see what Ye Dong was thinking, the old monk quickly said: "Benefactor Ye, Buddhist practitioners don't lie, but they don't lie either. Although I can be sure that there are such people, it may not be what you said." As imagined, they are not real Buddhas, but they have brainwashed Buddhist practitioners by some means to make Buddhist practitioners think they are Buddhas!"

As if to convince himself, the old monk solemnly reiterated again: "Benefactor Ye, I firmly believe that they are not real Buddhas, but demons, and they are just a coat of Buddha!"

Everyone has their own persistence and pursuit. The words of the old monk represent what he thinks in his heart. No one knows whether it is the truth or not.

However, Ye Dong is willing to believe the old monk's thoughts. After all, his brother Ren Wang also said that there will be great powers in the Buddhist land to brainwash Buddhist practitioners, which coincides with the old monk's thoughts.

At the same time, Ye Dong also has his own ideas, because following the questions about the Buddhist lands and Buddhist practitioners in the Western Regions, he also thought of a question that has puzzled him for a long time, which is the truth of the existence of the Nine Heavens!

Everyone in the Blood Prison is unwilling to submit to the Nine Heavens, and according to the Devil Emperor Brahma and the Blood Prison, if they want to enter the Nine Heavens, they must contribute their souls.

Ye Dong still couldn't figure out what kind of consecration method this kind of consecration of the soul is. He has walked in Huoxiaotian for so long, and he didn't see anyone who lost his soul. On the contrary, everyone is alive and well.

So, does it mean that the true ruler of the Nine Heavens also uses this power of belief to weaken the souls of the heavenly people little by little, so as to achieve his goal of eternal life?

Ye Dong raised his own doubts, but unfortunately the old monk couldn't answer, because he had never left the Buddhist land of the Western Regions, and this was why he was willing to take the initiative to enter the Soul Bell. Naturally, it was also a helpless move.

With the strength of the old monk, he still couldn't get rid of the Buddhist land of the Western Regions, so instead of dedicating his soul to those demons in vain, it would be better to enter the Soul Requiem Bell, at least in exchange for a peace of mind, so for others, entering the Soul Requiem Clock may be a kind of pain, but for the old monk, it is a kind of relief!
