Chapter 585: Become a Buddha in this Life!

A wave of demonic energy swept across the 800-li Huangsha Ridge and headed straight for the Liusha River. As the most inconspicuous Huang Po in the Westward Journey to the West, Lin Dong still had a lot of curiosity.

The reason why Zhu Ganglie in Yunzhan Cave has his roots too deep is because his roots are too deep.

He is closely connected with the secret history of the ascension of the Northern Emperor Zhenwu, and the Central Emperor Ziwei. As the leader of the Four Saints of the North Pole, Tianpeng should have taken the next step to rule the north and achieve the same level of Taoism as the Emperor Xuanming.

Its original magical power is also written as the original mantra.

The "Tian Peng Curse" was written into the Taoist canon.

To some extent, General Tianpeng is a candidate for the designated quasi-emperor in the northern Taoist pantheon.

The result was inexplicable. In later generations, during the Yuan and Ming dynasties, it was Zhenwu, the last of the Four Saints of the North Pole, who emerged first and became the Zhenwu Emperor, achieving the supreme deity who ruled over the ghosts and gods in the north.

This is very interesting.

The various secrets about Zhenwu's ascension to the throne were not something that Lin Dong could explore at the moment.

Therefore, he set his sights on Huang Posha Wujing.

The image of Sha Wujing is neither green nor black, with a gloomy face, fangs protruding from the sword's mouth, and messy red hair.

In Lin Dong's opinion, this is definitely a large-sized Yaksha.

As the saying goes, "Nine cups of water fry a baby, and one round of fire raises a yellow woman!"

This Huang Po refers to the spleen among the five internal organs, and is also the position of Monk Sha in the five-member team of pilgrims.

In essence, the team of pilgrims was appointed by Lingshan from the very beginning.

In order to eliminate the murderous aura of the great killing calamity between heaven and earth, one must secretly conform to the numbers of the five elements.

Sun Wukong, Master Wukong, is also called Jingong.

"Gong" means to overcome, and overcoming gold is fire, and the monkey heart belongs to fire. So Sun Wukong occupies the position of heart in the five elements and is the core of the whole team.

Without Master Wukong, there would be no journey to the West, and other methods would have to be found to eliminate the killing calamity between heaven and earth.

Zhu Bajie is also known as Wood Mother and Wood Dragon. As the saying goes, liver belongs to wood, and Zhu Bajie occupies the wood position in the killing catastrophe.

Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty, Xuanzang means Xuanqing, which means black water.

His nickname is Jiang Liuer, which is the water element, so the tight hoop can cure his uneasy mind.

The White Dragon Horse and Sun Wukong are both called the heart and the willful horse. The heart belongs to fire, the will belongs to gold, and the willful horse belongs to the lungs.

The case of arson and burning of pearls implies the theory of fire overcoming metal in numerology.

Sha Wujing is the earth among the five elements, also called Huang Po.

The 800-li Quicksand River is 3,000 feet deep, yet goose feathers don't float and reed catkins sink to the bottom, all because the earthy air is too heavy.

Now that Master Wukong has begun escorting Tang Monk on his journey to the west, all the gods along the way are paying attention, and rash contact may not be a good thing. Zhu Ganglie looks like a simple pig demon, but in fact Lin Dong doesn't dare to touch him at all.

In the end, the only option left was Huang Po.

A great general serving the court and following the Jade Emperor all the time was demoted to the mortal world just for breaking a cup?

The flying sword piercing the chest every seven days makes the image of the Jade Emperor seem too harsh.

If there is no secret at all, then there must be something fishy going on.

As Lin Dong used the Heavenly Demonic Magic to search, he also discovered some clues. Compared with the other members of the pilgrim team, either the saints were covering up for them, or the quasi-saints were erasing the causes and consequences.

Lin Dong did find out a little about the future Sha Wujing and the current Huang Po. The one who concealed the secrets for Sha Wujing was the Avalokitesvara, one of the Five Elders of the Five Directions.

Why did Guanyin take action?
Lin Dong's mind raced, and as he thought about it, he came up with one of the ideas. In the esoteric religion, there is a god who is in charge of eliminating all difficulties.

Also known as Shensha God, Shensha God King, Shensha King, Shensha Boy, Shensha Bodhisattva!
What a coincidence! His original body was the first god under the Northern Heavenly King Vaisravana, and the king of the Yakshas. One day, this Yakshas ghost king went to the four continents to seize the essence of all living beings. What a coincidence! He met Guanyin and was immediately enlightened to become a Yaksha boy.

"I see."

A surge of enlightenment surged through Lin Dong’s heart.

In another time and space, Mu Zha left the Purple Bamboo Forest to help the pilgrims subdue the old monster in the Quicksand River. He once wrote a poem: "The five elements match with innocence, and I recognize my former master. I have established a foundation for wonderful use..."

The so-called recognition of the former master actually refers to Guanyin. Moreover, Guanyin subdued the monkeys and pigs, and made a promise to Master Wukong, which bluntly said that he would give him a positive result!
The so-called right result is to become a Buddha and attain Bodhi!
The vague words given to Zhu Bajie are to atone for his sins with merits, and to help him escape from the disaster! The details will depend on your performance. It is hard to say whether the final result is good or bad.

But for Huang Po, it means reinstatement!
Reinstatement?

Huang Po once worked in the Heavenly Palace as a general in the Curtain Roller. She boasted that she was the most respected person in the South Heaven Gate and the most respected person in front of the Lingxiao Palace. She was basically the leader of the guards.

How come after entering Lingshan, he was conferred the title of Golden Body Arhat?

It was said that I would be reinstated to my original position. It turns out that this position refers to the original position in Lingshan, not the Heavenly Palace.

Thinking about it this way, the person who always protects the Jade Emperor and follows him in and out of the court is actually someone who holds a position in Buddhism?
"If I were the Jade Emperor, I would have had my heart pierced by a seven-day sword. Huh? This punishment is considered light. His soul must be annihilated!"

Lin Dong thought about it this way and tried to figure out the reason.

The chief of the Jade Emperor's guards, the most trusted confidant among his confidants, turned out to be a man planted by the Buddhist sect? To put it bluntly, when he is discovered, it would not be an exaggeration to grind his bones and scatter his ashes.

Lin Dong calculated with his fingers and found that the secret of this section was inexplicably easy to spy on.

When he looked up again, he was led to a strange place. He had clearly been flying for more than half an hour, and with the magic energy rolling, he should have almost reached the foot of Lingshan Mountain. However, when he looked up, he found that he had not even flown two miles?
"interesting."

He immediately sent down his devilish energy and landed near a rock cave. He looked inside and saw dense stalagmites, darkness and depth with no end in sight, and it was extremely desolate all around.

Puff. Puff. Puff.

As he took a step into the cave, large swarms of black bats flew straight towards his face, but were immediately fanned away by Lin Dong's flick of his sleeve. After flying for a distance in the cave, the bats became more and more winding, quiet and deep.

He didn't know how long he had been walking when a golden halo suddenly appeared in front of him. He walked over quickly and suddenly the view became clear, but he saw that there was a deep valley in front of him.

The valley is filled with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, and a thousand colors of auspiciousness.

Green pines and cypresses, green willows and red peaches, birds and beasts talking, and cranes dancing gracefully.

There was another tree with a huge bird's nest on it. The worst thing was that the bird's nest could emit a luster like the golden body of Buddha, which hurt people's eyes.

When Lin Dong saw this, he immediately understood that he was led to this place by Zen Master Wuchao.

One of the most mysterious figures in the entire prehistoric world.

Lin Dong knew that he could not find out the background of this old god without using his supernatural powers, so he took two steps forward and bowed, saying, "But Master Wu Chao led me here. If you have any advice, please feel free to tell me."

"You, the demon king, are quite straightforward. Yes, it is this old monk."

A voice came from the treetops, and a Taoist with white hair on top of his head jumped down from the treetop. He looked extremely strong and did not look old at all.

Lin Dong took a half step back, the purple fire burning in his eyes like red lanterns, the divine light shining on him, he felt that the person in front of him was as immeasurable as the galaxy, and there seemed to be nine layers of Buddha light behind his head.

Such a view.

Lin Dong had a vague understanding in his heart, "Old Immortal, I am a quick-witted person. You led me here, so there must be a rule, right?"

Zen Master Wuchao smiled and explained, "I have a copy of the Heart Sutra. If you want to ascend the lotus platform someday, just recite this sutra."

"This……"

Lin Dong blinked when he heard this, somewhat unsure.

The Heart Sutra is the general volume of the Heart Sutra. In other words, it is also called the general outline of Buddhism, and it is the source of all dharmas.

In terms of status, it is equivalent to the "Laozi Xiang'er Zhu" in Taoism, and it is also a method that directly points to the root and the Tao.

"How can pie fall from the sky?"

Lin Dong didn't believe this, so he counted with his fingers and thought about the cause and effect in his mind, but he couldn't figure out his own future. However, there was one thing that was related to this sutra.

Lin Dong immediately asked, "Isn't this scroll of scriptures prepared by the Zen master for those who seek scriptures? Why did he give it to a kid?"

"Hahaha."

Zen Master Wuchao laughed loudly, "The heaven and earth have no roots, and the calamities come and go, and all the calamities become nothing, but the resentment of sentient beings has not diminished. Even though there are all kinds of predestined relationships in the journey to the West, the Buddha's plan has ended in vain."

The voice paused.

The old monk's smile returned to calm and he said calmly: "After much selection, I feel that you are the most suitable person to be the sutra holder." Lin Dong's face was uncertain.

As for his thoughts, he naturally wanted this scripture, but who knows what kind of calculations were hidden in it!
This is one of them.

Second, if I remember correctly, this sutra was originally given to Tang Xuanzang. Taking it away by himself would not only be an opportunity for him, but also a step into the internal struggle of Lingshan.

The three Buddhas of Lingshan’s past, future, and present each hold their own power, and the power struggle is a hundred times worse than that in the human palace.

Lin Dong speculated that the true identity of the current Zen Master Wuchao might be the deputy leader, Ran Deng, who led the group of immortals of the Chan sect to collectively defect to Yuanshi Tianzun.

Of course this was not something he could be sure of, it was just a guess.

There are two reasons. The first is that the Heart Sutra is the general outline of Buddhism. Not just anyone can possess it. One must be at least one of the four great Bodhisattvas.

The second is the Buddha's light. The nine levels of Buddha's light all have a strong aura of fire essence.

Although he had some doubts in his mind, he could not point them out on the spot. To put it bluntly, it was just a guess, not a deduction of the secrets.

Lin Dong rolled his eyes and said with a cupped hand, "You can't let me take a scroll of scriptures for nothing. Is there such a good thing? Is there anything you need me to do? You can tell me."

Zen Master Wuchao shook his head and smiled without saying anything.

Lin Dong thought about it again and again and finally refused, saying: "I am a demon with little luck. The water on the sacred mountain is too cold, so I dare not set foot in it."

"Humph."

Who would have thought that at this moment, Zen Master Wuchao would snort coldly.

"That's not up to you."

The muscular white-haired Taoist stretched out his palm and slapped Lin Dong's crown. Ten thousand golden lotuses emerged at once, and the strong golden light made people's eyelids hurt.

"Grass!"

A short syllable emanated from Lin Dong’s mouth and nose.

An indescribable shuddering sensation arose all over his body, as if his head had been pecked open by some unsightly creature. Lin Dong's body floated into the air uncontrollably.

All his magical powers were locked up by an inexplicable will; he couldn't transform himself into a demon even if he wanted to.

"That old man is too hateful and too domineering."

Lin Dong muttered and cursed in his heart.

One golden lotus after another rushed straight towards Lin Dong, attempting to crash into his soul. This really forced Lin Dong into a corner. Demonic faces appeared on his body, with mouths full of blood.

As soon as the golden lotus hit, it was immediately bitten to pieces by the demon face. Golden ashes were scattered all over the valley, and as the golden lotus shattered, swastika seals appeared one after another.

The golden mark of Buddhism slapped on the face of the devil, and directly turned the devil's face into a wisp of light smoke.

The demon faces that emerged from Lin Dong’s body were limited, but the golden lotuses were endless.

The terrifying golden lotus turned into a whirlwind at this moment, and all of it poured into Lin Dong’s soul from the top of his head.

Lin Dong's original spirit suddenly transformed into a ferocious nine-headed bull demon, and then suddenly transformed into a celestial being holding thunder and fire.

On his body, there suddenly appeared another third eye between his eyebrows.

Golden vertical pupils appeared, containing endless Buddha light.

It took more than ten breaths.

The golden lotus storm finally subsided. Lin Dong raised his head and saw scarlet characters flashing before his eyes.

……

Lin Dong was dazzled by the series of effects. However, when the teaching was finished, Zen Master Wuchao also disappeared from his sight, and the mysterious confinement in this place also disappeared.

but.

At this moment, every piece of good flesh on Lin Dong's body was like a doll with holes all over it. His face was dejected, but as soon as he changed his mind, all the injuries on his body recovered.

The power of the devil and the power of Buddha are originally opposite to each other.

In terms of lethality, the Buddha's light is the one that causes the greatest damage to the demonic energy.

However, with the suffix of becoming a Buddha in this life, Lin Dong will be able to rotate between the devil and the Buddha in the future.

If he were to devote himself to Buddhism with his current practice, he would reap the fruit of Prajna, which is one level below Bodhi and equivalent to a celestial being.

The so-called highest level of Prajna is the first-level fruition of the four great Bodhisattvas in Buddhism.

However, the title of Great Bodhisattva on Lingshan Mountain has been filled.

If Lin Dong were to transform, he would be a great venerable like Ananda and Kasyapa, and could sometimes represent the Buddha to carry out his will. And this was only one of the possibilities. He could even steal the Buddhahood forever.

Gild yourself.

I, Lin Dong, am the Buddha!

"Amitabha!"

With a Buddhist proclamation, Lin Dong's demonic aura disappeared, and a thousand-foot golden light suddenly burst out from behind him, and nine circles of Buddha's light rose from the back of his head.

"Hahaha! From now on, I will walk around as Mahakala."

The voice paused.

Lin Dong held up a Buddhist salute, then put his hands together and said, "Praise to the Buddha Vairocana! Praise to all the gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas! I am - Mahakala Vidyaraja!"

The so-called Mahakala, also known as Yamantaka, Fearful Vajra, and Bull-Headed Vajra! He is in charge of life and death, and in Eastern Esoteric Buddhism, he is also translated as the Conqueror of Death!
Thus the Buddha’s name is pronounced.

In the distance, on the Wanli Lingshan Mountain, Duobao Tathagata, who was preaching the sutras, almost fell off his lotus platform.

"Amitabha, this is a great act of kindness. The Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss has gained another venerable one. All Bodhisattvas and Galatians should pay homage to you."

Tathagata Many Treasures stopped preaching.

“Amitabha! Amitabha!”

The three thousand Jietis, five hundred Arhats, eleven Dayao, eighteen Kālaas, eight Bodhisattvas, and four Vajras at Mount Lingshan all chanted the Buddha's name.

There seemed to be an extra will merging into Lingshan.

"Hahaha."

The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas could vaguely hear the rampant laughter of a demon or Buddha coming from a valley tens of thousands of miles away, which was indistinguishable.
