Too much fruit

Chapter 767: Cause and Effect Collection, Let Me See Your Limits
“The Buddha’s face is like a pure full moon, and also like the sun shining brightly;

The round light shines everywhere in the ten directions, bringing joy, generosity, compassion and mercy to all.

I pay homage to all the Buddhas in the ten directions. May the Dharma wheel always turn to save sentient beings.

In Daxing City, Sanskrit sounds were heard and spread to all directions. Then, the Dharma image of Vairocana Tathagata reappeared first, followed by the Dharma images of Avalokitesvara and Maitreya. Then, Bodhisattvas such as Skanda, Guangli, Vajrapani, and the Dharma images of the Sixteen Arhats all appeared one by one.

The Buddhist chant started in the city and echoed in all directions. In a short period of time, it had covered Daxing County and had a tendency to spread outward.

The Buddhist Kingdom had been operating in Yongzhou for a long time, and had conquered some county governors and magistrates. At this time, Hong Haogu was used by Tan Wuwei as the central hub covering the hometown of Zhenkong. The sound of Sanskrit spread everywhere, and in a short period of time, the three surrounding counties were connected into one. The vast Buddhist light came out from the clouds, saving all parties.

"It was accomplished so quickly, it seems like it has been planned for a long time."

Jiang Li, who had just left the Governor's Mansion, looked back and sensed a huge Buddhist energy appearing in the Governor's Mansion. In Jiang Li's vision, this energy was like a pillar of heaven, rising straight into the sky.

Obviously, Tan Wuwei...or Manjusri's plan of salvation has already begun, within this short period of time.

Considering that Hong Haogu had gone out with Shen Hou before, even if he turned around and came back immediately, it would take some time, so this "short time" has to be discounted.

The plan to save Yongzhou was implemented in such a short time. It was obviously not something that was thought up on the spur of the moment, but was well planned and might even have been put into practice a lot, otherwise it would not have been successful in one try.

Perhaps, this step had already been decided when Shen Hou stole the Divine Whip, or maybe even earlier.

"They want to occupy all the divine domains and take real bites out of the Great Zhou's territory."

Jiang Li noticed that the Sanskrit sound had penetrated into every corner, and he knew that this was the confidence that Manjusri wanted to seize the Great Zhou.

Every time they occupied a place, they would save the people there. At the same time, they would infiltrate and transform the divine domain, gradually reducing the territory of the Great Zhou and also lowering the power of the emperor.

The power brought by the Emperor's Dao Fruit depends on the strength of the dynasty.

Wenshu's plan was far-reaching enough, he even thought of seizing the Great Zhou. Once it broke out, cruel things came one after another.

Jiang Li sensed the changes in the energy around him, and heard people gradually joining in the chanting of the Buddha's name and converting to Buddhism. However, his heart remained calm. He simply found a room in a newly renovated temple nearby and sat cross-legged.

The book that only he could see was opened, and the patterns painted on the pages came into view.

The big Kun, the sky roc, the flying birds, the swimming fish, the long river... these are exactly the remaining part of Zhuang Zhou's Tao fruit that was previously included in the collection of cause and effect.

This fruit of the Tao was recorded in the collection of cause and effect in the form of a pattern, or in other words, in the form of cause and effect. Now is the time to take this cause and effect, this fruit of the Tao, into your body.

Manjusri is constantly improving, and Jiang Li cannot stand still.

Jiang Li stretched out his right hand and moved forward slowly, his fingertips gradually approaching the cause and effect collection, and then...
A real texture comes from your fingertips.

Just like an ordinary page of a book, with a little bit of friction, when you run your fingers across it, the patterns seem to come alive.

This was the first time that Jiang Li truly came into contact with the Cause and Effect Collection. In the past, he had only looked at it and used it, but had never really touched the Cause and Effect Collection.

And now, as my fingers run across the pages of the book, a sense of enlightenment arises quietly.

[Cause and effect gather, gather cause and effect, cause and effect will not become an obstacle for Jiang Li, but will only become a help for him. 】

The Collection of Cause and Effect presents what Jiang Li has obtained in the form of text, and at the same time begins to further demonstrate the function of the Collection of Cause and Effect.

[Conclude the cause and effect, once realized, forever realized, never regress; rewrite the cause and effect, the Tao and fruit will transform, everything will go smoothly; complete the cause and effect, the Tao and fruit will be closed, and will return to completeness.]

At this moment, Jiang Li's sense of enlightenment came from [binding cause and effect].

Once you attain enlightenment, you will attain it forever and will never regress. Therefore, Jiang Li does not need to worry that the completeness of Zhuang Zhou's Taoist fruit will affect Jiang Li's foundation and cause negative impact.

In fact, Jiang Li has the confidence to complete Zhuang Zhou's Dao Fruit because he knows that he has the guarantee of the Cause and Effect Collection.

There is also [Rewriting Cause and Effect].

At the beginning, Jiang Li transformed the ordinary Dao fruit into a unique Dao fruit by using this ability. Later, when Jiang Li was promoted to the fourth grade, Qingyuan Miaodao Zhenjun completed it, and its level had reached the third grade, which almost broke Jiang Li. It was also this ability that was modified, lowering the upper limit of the Dao fruit, but retaining the original magical power.

Theoretically, the rank of Qingyuan Miaodao Zhenjun has been lowered, but Jiang Li can raise this upper limit again by integrating himself with the Dao Fruit.

In essence, the power is reduced, but everything it should have is there, including Yang Jian's understanding of the Eight-Nine Profound Art.

Jiang Li did not know these things in the past, but now he has communicated with the cause and effect collection and finally found out.

He was able to beat a third-grade cultivator with a fourth-grade cultivator. The foundation he had laid and the Dao fruits he had accumulated were one aspect, but the benefit of Yang Jian’s Dao fruits was also indispensable.

However, this time is different from the previous one. This time, he completed Zhuang Zhou's Dao Fruit, but he rewrote the Dao Fruit that had already been completely integrated. He didn't know what the result would be. In theory, Jiang Li would never retreat, so there would be no negative impact, but he didn't know how much he would gain.

so······

"Karma Set, let me see your limits."

Jiang Li stretched out his hand and pressed on the pages. Suddenly, the pages began to gather on the two open pages, and then gradually moved along Jiang Li's palm, attached to his arm, and disappeared into his body. At the same time, faint whispers and long chants echoed in Jiang Li's mind.

"There is a fish in the North Sea, its name is Kun, Kun is so big..."

“Those who do not depart from the origin are called heavenly men; those who do not depart from the essence are called divine men; those who do not depart from the truth are called the ultimate men. Those who take heaven as their origin, virtue as their foundation, the Tao as their door, and are able to foretell changes are called sages…”

"The Tao gives it its appearance, and Heaven gives it its shape..."

“The Way of Heaven moves without accumulation, so all things come into being; the Way of the Emperor moves without accumulation, so the world comes under his control…”

The profound meaning of the profound words echoed in his heart, complicated and yet extremely clear, allowing Jiang Li to deeply understand the inner meaning.

The mind was transcending along with these essences, as if it had left the body and transformed into Kunpeng, a flying bird, wind and clouds, and even into the five turbidities and evil airs, wandering between heaven and earth.

It is the unity of man and nature, but it is not like the unity of man and nature.

Jiang Li had already been able to achieve the unity of man and nature, and was not unfamiliar with this. At this moment, he felt that he was coexisting with the heaven and earth, which was an intuitive feeling of the unity of man and nature, but at the same time, he was able to look at the heaven and earth from a third-party perspective.

Between heaven and earth, the five turbid and evil airs permeate the air, and the natural operation has an invisible awkwardness, just like a rusty gear.

The world must be sick, or it may have reached its end.

Jiang Li has always speculated about this, but there is still no conclusion.

When we met again today, he tended to agree more with the former, that is, "the world is sick."

The "gears" of this "machine" now appear to be rusty and its operation is a bit sluggish, but overall it is not time to be eliminated yet and there is no doomsday atmosphere.

This is good news. Jiang Li has no intention of being a savior. His life span is very long now. If nothing unexpected happens, even a ten thousand year old turtle may not be able to outlive him. After all, the five turbidities and evil spirits can no longer have an effect on Jiang Li.

If the end of the world is really approaching, Jiang Li will most likely survive to see it.

That's fine now.

His mind was wandering between heaven and earth, and his senses were also traveling. The entire Yongzhou was covered by Jiang Li's perception.

As far as his "sight" reached, three extremely obvious beings came into his perception.

First was the Buddha's light closest to him, then there was a ray of clear air from the location of Laojun Temple, and also a shadow that took the shape of a dragon.

"This should be fate. Qingqi is obviously the Three Pure Ones of Daojun. He has not left Yongzhou yet, and Longying is my good brother."

Jiang Li's "vision" roamed from the clear air to the dragon's shadow, sensing the reality of the two.

The Dao Lord's real body has not arrived in Yongzhou, only one of the Three Pure Ones' primordial spirits is here. As for the Great Lord, his real body has not arrived here either, only Wu Zhen's clone is here.

This made Jiang Li feel that these two people were not as powerful as the Buddha's light.

In the Buddha's light, Vairocana Tathagata appeared, and Bodhisattvas and Arhats surrounded him one by one. His luck was so strong that it seemed to have reached a critical point, above the Three Pure Ones' primordial spirits and the Great Venerable's incarnation, and also above Jiang Li.

Jiang Li had previously sent out a telekinesis for Manjusri to absorb, which also weakened his own luck. However, Manjusri was worshipped by two third-grade masters and a group of fourth- and fifth-grade masters, and his external luck was stronger than his own.

A person's luck comes from two aspects. One is from oneself. The stronger one is, the stronger his luck is. Strength is the basis of luck. The other is from external forces such as power and status, or people who obey him.

The more people who follow you and the stronger they are, the more powerful your external fortune will be.

At this time, Manjusri's external luck has surpassed his own destiny, which shows that his power is huge. But this external luck seems a bit complicated...

Jiang Li sensed Manjusri's destiny and had a novel feeling. Although he could see the destiny in the past, he could never do this, let alone observe the destiny of Manjusri or even the Great Venerable or the Taoist Lord.

And when he wanted to carefully examine Manjusri's destiny, his mind moved, and it was as if he had penetrated deep into Manjusri's destiny, perceiving the internal components and seeing clearly where those external fortunes came from.

When Jiang Li sensed this subtle feeling, his mind went deep, following a familiar feeling, searching for the part that belonged to him.

Thoughts wander in a bizarre world, with familiar or unfamiliar perceptions passing through the mind, gradually approaching the target.

But at this moment, the destiny fluctuated, and a grand light appeared.

"who is it?"

Vast thoughts were echoing, and Jiang Li's heart was suddenly awe-inspiring. His mind moved, and his thoughts quickly receded. The world in front of his "eyes" was changing rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, Jiang Li had already returned to his own body.

At the same time, the Zhuang Zhou Dao Fruit that Jiang Li perceived also changed.

[Supreme Man], [Divine Man], [Sage].
