Taming the Demon: A Guide to Raising a Great Sage

Regarding how Shen Lang got rid of the nightmare and illusion, Yan Tianying discussed with Master Wanfa and Venerable Liuli, and finally came to a reasonable conclusion:

The spider mother underestimated the determination of a man, and turned into a beautiful woman, saying that she would take care of him. Not only did she not want his car and house gift, but she also gave him the car and house gift. This is simply treating him like a husband. A man would never accept such humiliation.

A manly man, especially a hot-blooded young man like Shen Lang, who is full of blood, full of energy, sharp-edged, fierce, and even "lawless", how can he be willing to "eat soft food"?
This is the greatest humiliation for a young man who is determined to forge ahead and is fighting for a bright future with his own hands!

Humiliated in his heart and extremely angry, Shen Lang burned away the emptiness with anger and broke the nightmare and illusion set by the spider mother. When they first entered the nightmare and illusion, Yan Tianying and the three had witnessed Shen Lang breaking the illusory once.

It is natural and reasonable to repeat the successful experience again.

Since the three great masters and great masters think so, of course Shen Lang will not expose himself and tell them that I might have attuned a super-sized spider spirit...

At that moment, Shen Lang also had an appearance of "I see, it suddenly dawned on me", and nodded again and again:
"It should be like this! Although I can't remember exactly how to expel the spider mother, but until now, I still feel a wave of anger filling my heart, and there is always a kind of resentment that lingers, but it turns out that I was killed The spider mother is so humiliated!"

After a pause, he asked again:

"Well, after the spider mother retreats this time, I wonder if she will make a comeback?"

He is really not cheap and good-looking.

He really couldn't confirm whether he had successfully attuned the spider mother or not—in the past, when he enlightened the little demon, he always wrote his pen on the little demon's body.After the attunement, and being close to the little goblins, he can immediately determine the status of the little goblins.

But this time, what is in the fine brush hair removal point is only the projection of the spider mother in the nightmare and illusion, which can be regarded as the "primordial spirit" of the spider mother, and it is not a complete primordial spirit, but only a partial manifestation of the primordial spirit.

After one stroke, the nightmare illusion was shattered in an instant, and the projection of the spider mother disappeared without a trace.

Shen Lang's current "Monster Taming Art" is only on the fourth floor, and he can only "heart-to-heart communicate" with little monsters within 800 meters.

But the Spider Mother was far away in the "Gunding Demon Palace", and was blocked behind the seal of the Demon Palace. This made it impossible for Shen Lang to use the "Demon Taming Technique" to determine the status of the Spider Mother. I don't know if she will make a comeback and bring down the nightmare illusion again.

If the Spider Mother comes again...

"Dian Jingben" is completely bald, without this ultimate trump card to deal with the big monster, Shen Lang really doesn't know how to deal with the spider mother.

Yan Tianying, who was not very good at this aspect, really didn't know how to answer his question.

Daoist Wanfa, who is fierce in fighting skills, is not very good at the way of cause and effect.

Immediately, both of them looked at Fa Liuli, asking her to answer.

Fa Liuli has cultivated "the eyes of the sky, the ears of the sky, the heart of other people, the feet of the gods, and the fate of fate", and the Buddhist six-pass has proved the five-pass, which should be able to solve Shen Lang's confusion.

Seeing Yan Tianying and Master Wanfa looking at Fa Liuli, Shen Lang also looked at her with piercing eyes.

However, although Fa Liuli can observe people's past karma and future karma with "fate understanding", but the spider mother is too high-status, she is a "demon god" detached from the world.Venerable Liuli is a real person of the first rank, he has not yet truly transcended, he is still a mortal.

As a mortal, how can he see the cause and effect of the demon god clearly?

Fa Liuli tried her best, but she could barely see that the great karma between Shen Lang and the Spider Mother had not been cut off, but she couldn't see clearly what kind of retribution this karmic karma would bring.

After pondering for a while, she said slowly:
"The arrival of the spider mother this time is the opportunity for you to kill the seven spider sisters and form a great karma with him. After we wash away the restraint of the primordial spirit of the white benefactor, it will be the time when the karma between you and him is the most serious. When the mother came at this moment, it was all in one go.

"But this time he didn't succeed. The so-called exhaustion and exhaustion, even if the spider mother may come again, the nightmare curses you, but it will not be as difficult as this time. And since you can survive this time, In the future, the cultivation level will be higher, and the primordial spirit will be stronger. With one ups and downs, the spider mother may be even more helpless against you.

"Of course, it doesn't mean that you can sit back and relax in the future. You can succeed this time, one is because you are in the Buddha magic circle and can be blessed by the power of the magic circle. The other is because of me, Lord Yan, and Yuzhen's assistance—— —It’s not that we take credit for it, but because the three of us help you in a dream, the Spider Mother must devote part of her energy to dealing with us, do you understand that?”

Shen Lang nodded:

"I understand. This time, the Spider Mother divided the nightmare and phantom into three parts. One part is used to trap me, and the other two parts are used to trap Master Yan, Master Chang, and Venerable You. Because of your containment, the power of the Spider Mother Diluted, can't focus on dealing with me alone, we have a chance to get rid of the nightmare."

Fa Liuli smiled sweetly:
"Putting away the projection of the Demon God's Nightmare, you have achieved such a victory, you can still maintain a clear understanding, you are not proud and conceited, little monk Fahai, you are very good. In short, this is the most violent revenge of the spider mother, but you also have the strongest defense.

"After this time, if the Spider Mother comes again, unless you practice with me in the Zen Academy, live in my small temple, and be protected by my legal domain at all times, otherwise you will have to deal with the Spider Mother alone.

"Little monk Fahai, do you want to stay with me and practice?"

Shen Lang: "Uh... Your lord's kindness, this disciple appreciates it. It's just... this disciple's six sense organs are unclean, and his heart is agitated. Every day, he has to drink in a large altar and eat meat in large pieces. He is young and vigorous, and occasionally misses women... ...It is really incompatible with such a pure place as Liuli Temple..."

Yan Tianying also said:
"Xiao Shen is the number one genius in my Shencatching Hall, and her future achievements are limitless. I can't be a monk with you. Liuli, you don't want to make plans with him! As for the spider mother's revenge again... It's a big deal, I will go with Yuzhen again A trip to Cloud Top Demon Palace, and then a fight with the projection incarnation of the Spider Mother, to draw his hatred."

Daoist Wanfa said calmly:
"Didn't you get a piece of 'thousand-year chalcedony' Liuli when you went to Yunding Demon Palace to reinforce the seal? Xiao Shen wears it with him."

Fa Liuli chuckled lightly:
"You guys, ruin my good deeds. Forget it, since the little monk is still just a fake monk, his six senses are not purified, and his heart is not peaceful, then let him go with you. As for the piece of thousand-year-old chalcedony, I will give it to you. That’s the little monk. But to refine the magic-exorcism seal, apart from your assistance, Yuzhen, Master Yan also needs to work hard.”

Yan Tianying wondered:
"I don't know what refining tools can do to help?"

Fa Liuli smiled and said:
"Master Yan's martial arts true meaning of moving forward with a heavy burden, never turning back, and being high-spirited and unyielding, is perfectly complemented by the use of the seal of exorcising magic. It is not too late to refine the weapon. The devil's mind is unpredictable. I don't know when it will make a comeback. We Let’s start refining.”

The great master and the great master acted resolutely, even without breakfast, they drove Shen Lang out of the small temple, and the three of them joined hands to refine the utensils.

When Shen Lang left the temple gate, he saw Bai Shishi sitting on the porch, leaning against the pillar, resting his chin on his hands, dozing off bit by bit, with dreamy saliva dripping from the corners of his mouth.

Shen Lang walked over and kicked her thigh lightly with his toe, and Bai Shishi suddenly woke up with a jolt.

Seeing Shen Lang, Bai Shishi was a little sleepy, and Bai Shishi, who hadn't fully woken up, opened her mouth without thinking:

"Master Shen, are you still alive?"

"What do you mean?" Shen Lang stared: "Are you expecting me to die?"

Only then did Bai Shishi wake up, she smiled embarrassingly, wiped away the dreamy saliva from the corner of her mouth, got up and said:
"No, no. Of course I didn't expect you to die. It's just that I know the horror of the spider mother best. I always feel that your trip is a disaster...I didn't expect you to come out alive. I'm really thankful and congratulations."

"Come on, if you can't speak, just say a few words, and no one will treat you as dumb."

Shen Lang glared at her angrily, and asked her:

"I lost all my internal strength, and most of my secret techniques were useless. Are you feeling depressed?"

Bai Shishi said honestly:
"Actually, it's okay. Whether it's internal strength or secret technique, it didn't come from the right path... After the cleansing this time, I feel relieved and relaxed. Besides, although I have no internal strength, my meridians and acupoints have been tempered by internal strength for a long time. Practice, it's not difficult to come back from practice."

Shen Lang speaks earnestly:

"Well, it's good to have this kind of mentality. In the future, you have to correct your mentality, work hard to reform, be a new person, and make meritorious service to atone for your sins."

Bai Shishi lowered her head, pinched the corner of her clothes and whispered:

"I know, I will reform and make meritorious service to atone for my crime."

Shen Lang nodded:
"Remember what you said. By the way, you have been guarding outside all night, are you hungry?"

Bai Shishi nodded again and again, looking at him expectantly:
"Very hungry."

"I'm so hungry, don't you know how to find something to eat by yourself? Why are you looking at me?" Shen Lang snorted softly: "There is a canteen in the temple, although there is no wine or meat, but if you are full, you can go and have a big meal , and bring me some food by the way."

"Ah?" Bai Shishi was stunned, and said in a low voice, "But I don't know where the dining hall is..."

"Then you don't even know how to ask for directions? Ask the little nun in the monastery for directions and lead the way! Go!"

"..."

Bai Shishi twitched the corners of her lips, left the small temple resentfully, and went to the little nun in the monastery for directions to the canteen.

After Bai Shishi left, Shen Lang also sat down by the porch, with his back against the pillar, his consciousness sank into the fine pen space.

When fighting in the nightmare and illusion before, Xiaoyu awakened his consciousness with thunder, causing him to summon some fine brushes into the dreamland in time.

Little Skull and Little Rabbit also cast spells one after another to help him break free from the spider mother's intimidation. Even Xiao Zhao uttered tiger roars and black winds, which made him paralyzed and stiff by the spider mother's coercion, and completely recovered his ability to move.

Of course, the little demons also contributed a lot to repelling the spider mother this time.

But what made Shen Lang strange was that Xiao Zhao was still sleeping, refining the Wind King Orb, how could he help him?
When the consciousness sank into the space, Xiao Zhao was still curled up beside the five-color round well, fast asleep, with no sign of waking up.

So, the little cat was in a dream, and realized that his soul was in danger of sinking, so he helped him in his dream?
Seeing Xiao Zhao sleeping soundly, Shen Lang was thoughtful:
The little demons communicate with him, and even when he is sleeping, they can transmit their spiritual power to his dreams, helping him get rid of the coercion of the spider mother.

That being the case, the next time the spider mother comes to nightmare him again, can he summon the consciousness of the little demons into the dreamland to help him through telepathic communication?
The idea is worth a try.

His dream was an away game for Yan Tianying and the others. Not only could he not be blessed by the power of the dream, but he was also restrained, for fear of causing too much damage to the dream and hurting his primordial spirit.

But to the little demons, his dream can be regarded as half a home.Maybe in the dream, the little monsters will be more powerful than in this world.

Immersed in the Dian Jingbi space, communicated with the little monsters for a while, and praised them a lot, Shen Lang estimated that the time was almost up, so he exited the space, waited a while, and sure enough, Bai Shishi came back with a food box.

After a full meal, Shen Lang practiced boxing and kicking kung fu with Bai Shishi while waiting for Yan Tianying and the other three to come out.

They waited from morning to evening, and had lunch in the dining hall of the Buddhist monastery. The gate of the small temple just opened, and Yan Tianying, Wanfa Zhenren, and Fa Liuli came out hand in hand.

In Fa Liuli's crystal-clear and flawless white jade hand, there was a three-inch oval jade pendant.

The whole body of this jade pendant is lavender, and one side is engraved with the image of an eight-armed Bodhisattva with Fa Liuli stepping on a nine-grade lotus platform and wearing a lotus crown, and the other side is engraved with seven auspicious clouds in the shape of ganoderma lucidum.

She handed the jade pendant to Shen Lang, smiled and said:

"Thousand-year-old chalcedony has the effect of dispelling evil spirits and nourishing the primordial spirit. After being refined by me, Daoist Wanfa and Master Yan, it can help you keep your spirit altar awake at all times, even if you are in a nightmare, you will not lose your sanity .”

Yan Tianying smiled and said:
"The Venerable Liuli has spent a lot of money this time. This 'thousand-year chalcedony' is said to be a thousand years old, but the actual year is estimated to be nearly 3000 years old. It is not only beneficial to Dharma practice, but also to martial arts practice. The pure yang that it emits The power of the body can warm and nourish the physical body at all times, temper the qi, blood, muscles, bones, and acupoints of the meridians, and increase the speed of inner strength and true qi cultivation. Shen Lang, why don't you thank the venerable quickly?"

Shen Lang took the exorcism seal made of thousand-year-old chalcedony with both hands, and felt that the touch of the seal was warm and moist, and there was a hint of warmth, which continuously penetrated into the skin of his palm, and even penetrated into his meridian acupoints, warming and tempering his body , meridians.

It is estimated that only the "Genting Demon Palace" will produce such treasures that are close to 3000 years old.

Even if there are similar treasures in the mortal world, I am afraid that they have been mined by the monks of the past dynasties, just like the extinct fish dragon wood.

At that moment, Shen Lang clasped his hands together, and bowed deeply to Venerable Liuli:
"My lord, my disciples are very grateful for your great kindness. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will wholeheartedly repay you."

Fa Liuli smiled sweetly, dimples appeared on her cheeks, she was so pretty and beautiful:
"I, I'm not trying to repay you. If you really care about my kindness, you will often come to the Buddhist temple to listen to my lectures in the future, and just follow me to practice meditation."

Shen Lang sweated:

"In the future, I will definitely... Well, it's actually the same for disciples to practice at home..."

The big deal is to set up a temple for descendants in the future and give birth to a son to inherit the temple.

At this time, Fa Liuliyu flipped his hand, and in the palm of his hand, a super tome more than one foot thick appeared out of thin air.

A first-rank Daren can not only refine space artifacts, but also possess the "secret realm of heaven and earth".

For a master of the first rank, it is not too easy to conjure something at will.

"This is the Dharma of my lineage. There are also true martial arts and secret techniques in it. You can use it to learn and understand."

She originally thought that Shen Lang was just a fake monk who practiced martial arts, but in the nightmare and illusion, she saw him visualize the Tathagata Dharma and break the false and demon barriers, only then did she realize that he also practiced "Visual Thought" and was still young. made.

Double majoring in law and martial arts is not advisable.

But it is not a strict rule not to be able to practice both martial arts and martial arts. It is just that people's time and energy are limited, and no matter whether it is martial arts or magic arts, the higher the level, the more difficult it is to practice.

It is difficult to improve with all the energy and concentration, let alone distraction?

But Venerable Liuli didn't intend to mention him.

From her point of view, Shen Lang is young and vigorous, but also talented, overconfident, and it is inevitable to be greedy for everything.

And with his roots of wisdom, if he encounters a bottleneck in the future and has no time to take care of it, he doesn't need anyone to remind him, and he can figure out how to choose.

Therefore, she doesn't talk nonsense so as not to attract people's suspicion.I don't even ask him where he learned the "Da Ri Tathagata Contemplating Thoughts" and other authentic fundamental methods of Buddhism. He can get it and practice it, which shows that he has a deep connection with Buddhism and a natural wisdom.

He only gave him one classic scripture of her lineage, and reminded him a little solemnly:
"Although the idea of ​​the Great Sun Tathagata is authentic and true, under the scorching sun, there must be shadows. The light of the Great Sun shines in all directions, but the shadow under yourself cannot be illuminated.

"Therefore, when you practice, you must not be impatient, and you must always be on guard against the demons in your heart, otherwise, once you fall into the demons, your Great Sun Tathagata will also turn into a demon Buddha. Among the predecessors, there are precedents.

"Although you have the exorcism seal refined from thousand-year-old chalcedony, you are less likely to be attacked by inner demons and external demons, but you can't relax your vigilance and be careless because of this."

Shen Lang put his hands together, thank you again:

"Thank you for your teaching, my disciples will keep it in mind."

Originally, I wanted to show off my Dharma, and said a sentence: "The body is a bodhisattva tree, and the heart is a mirror stand. Always wipe it diligently so as not to stir up dust."As for the state of "Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a stand, there is nothing in the first place, where can there be dust", it is too high and empty, and if you can't do it, it is tantamount to pretending to be lonely, and it is not as good as the previous state. Qi, easy to practice.

However, Fa Liuli is certain that he is a "natural born Buddha son", if he shows off too much, she may really be forced to stay and practice by her.

In order to avoid being "snapped" into Buddhism for a moment, Shen Lang thanked him, then shut his mouth tightly, and honestly took the super tome that was more than a foot thick, big and heavy.

Afterwards, Bai Shishi also came forward to thank her, and Master Wanfa whispered some private conversations with Fa Liuli, and they bid farewell to her, boarded Master Wanfa's jade plate flying machine again, and went back to Beijing and also.
