Myriad Paths

Buddha, like Master Wushenshan, is an outstanding genius in Buddhism.

This title is very, very important.

"The Lotus Sutra" says: "Be born from the Buddha's mouth, be born from the transformation of the Dharma, obtain the Buddha's teachings, understand and understand the one vehicle, and be able to inherit the Buddha's seed, and then you can become a true disciple of the Buddha."

The first sentence is an introduction, but the last sentence is "Kanshao inherits the Buddha's seed", which means that he can inherit the Buddha's seed.

The disciples of the Buddha have shown that they can and will definitely inherit the Tathagata's great cause of enlightenment in the future.

But now, Li Qi looked at the Zen Master Kaiwen in front of him in astonishment, calling himself the Son of Buddha.

What's going on?

When did you become a Buddhist?

Moreover, no wonder this guy is so handsome, it turns out he is not a human!

He looked at Zen Master Kaiwen and found that he had turned into a strange being that was half human and half fox.

The head is a fox head, but even though it is an animal head, you can still see the foxy and handsome feeling in the eyebrows. Sure enough, Shuaibi is still Shuaibi even if he turns into a fox.

White fluff has also grown on his hands and neck, and the monk's robes must have begun to grow hair. If Li Qi had to describe it, he was probably Furui who had a very high degree of animal transformation, but he only maintained the ability to walk upright. This is just a feature.

And, what's particularly eye-catching are his four tails.

Fox demon... ah no, fox demon, and the kind that has converted to Buddhism. No wonder he is so coquettish. There is a reason for everything.

After spending a few seconds examining Zen Master Kaiwen's true form, Li Qi quickly waved his hand, and then went to help Zen Master Kaiwen: "Zen Master has misunderstood. I am not a disciple of the Buddha. If Zen Master hadn't given guidance through the verses of the World Honored One, I would probably have found him." Not the truth behind it.”

This is absolutely true. Li Qi was able to turn the Buddha sculpture into demon blood, and at least half of the credit was due to Zen Master Kaiwen.

He first told Li Qi that the heel of the Buddha statue was a drop of demon blood spilled from the Gabala blood bowl in Mahakala's hand.

Inspired by this, Li Qi was able to see through the fascination of the thirty-two phases.

But at that time, Li Qi still had doubts and was not sure. He affirmed it with the verses of the Buddha, and gave Li Qi an inspiring idea. Only then did Li Qi finally see through the deep-seated true nature of the Buddha sculpture. .

However, Li Qi knew that according to Buddhist views, this drop of blood was just something similar to the thirty-two phases.

This drop of demon blood is not the essence, but also a kind of appearance.

On the other side, Zen Master Kaiwen resolutely refused to get up: "Tujinini Heaven has said that only true disciples of the Buddha can break through the maze. This thing itself was born to screen out the disciples of Buddha. Tujinini Heaven has this feeling. Suddenly, a son of Buddha will be born in Baiyue, and I have been specially ordered to come and look for it. It seems that you are the son of Buddha predicted by Tujini Heaven!"

Li Qi touched his face, dumbfounded.

"The Zen Master was joking, how could I, a person from Wushen Mountain, become a disciple of Buddha? It's better not to joke around. The Zen Master said he didn't understand the Buddha sculpture before, but now he suddenly said something about the Buddha sculpture. Why don't monks tell lies?" Li Qi said helplessly.

He couldn't help him up, and Zen Master Kaiwen's cultivation was much higher than him, so Li Qi simply let him go.

There's nothing you can do, you can't beat it.

"I don't understand the nature of this Buddha sculpture. I'm not lying. All I understand is what Dajinitian said. She put the Buddha sculpture here to guide a Buddhist disciple. If he is a Buddhist disciple, If you want to know more, you might as well go to the Western Region with me and meet Dujini Tian together. Then all your questions will be answered," Zen Master Kaiwen said excitedly with his forehead touching the bottom.

Li Qi rolled his eyes.

Sir, if you do this, my teacher will rush up to you and break down the door.

But it was hard to be too straightforward, so Li Qi said to Zen Master Kaiwen: "Zen Master, I have accepted the inheritance of Wushen Mountain. There must be something wrong with the title of Buddha. No matter who he is, he is a disciple of Buddha." It can't be me."

However, Zen Master Kaiwen lay on the ground and said very firmly: "Dajini is known as the 'wisdom dakini', and her prophecy must have its truth. Even if the Buddha refuses to recognize it now, in the future, he will always There will be a day of great enlightenment.”

Hearing this, Li Qi touched his hair in horror.

Fortunately, it is very dense and has not changed.

He sighed: "Since the Zen Master insists on this, then I can't say anything. So, farewell?"

Seeing Li Qi preparing to leave, Zen Master Kaiwen finally got up.

He looked at Li Qi and sighed: "It seems that the Buddha has not shed his worldly thoughts and is unwilling to withdraw from this world. Then I ask the Buddha to accept this drop of demon blood, and the future will be determined."

"Thank you. It just so happens that I also realized the usefulness of this thing." Li Qi nodded and did not refuse.

This is what he came for.

The demon blood that has been purified by Mahakala is not an ordinary thing.

Then, in front of Zen Master Kaiwen, Li Qi put the drop of the five aggregates demon blood on his forehead.

Then, he clearly felt that there was a 'loophole' in his 'five aggregates'.

The five aggregates demon can interfere with the five aggregates and cause confusion in people's senses when observing the five aggregates. According to Buddhism, the five aggregates are the reflection of the real world on the human mind, and the human mind can only observe the five aggregates. And cannot observe the real world.

But now, the five aggregates have been broken, and Li Qi used that drop of demon blood to open a hole in his five aggregates.

Although according to Wu Jin, he does not have the five aggregates and what he sees is the real world, it is undeniable that Buddhism does have many magical powers targeting the five aggregates.

I don't know who is right.

According to Buddhist teachings, after breaking through the five aggregates, Li Qi's mind will face the real world.

On the forehead, holes in the five aggregates appeared.

Boom!

Li Qi only felt that a layer of separation was being torn apart in front of his eyes!

He was filled with joy, waiting for the arrival of the real world. Li Qi felt that that might be the secret of clairvoyance!

Seeing through all illusions, breaking through all appearances, and directly contacting the real world. This is not clairvoyance. What is it?

Of course, it is the real world in the eyes of Buddhism, not in the eyes of witches and Taoists. The witches and Taoists do not think this world is fake. There are differences in the understanding of the nature of the world between the two sides.

But it doesn't matter, what Li Qi wants to pursue right now is just 'useful'. He just wants something, preferably something that can work temporarily, so that he can distinguish desires before he comes up with the answer to 'I am me'. The world is coming.

Li Qi looked forward to directly using his mind to sense the 'reality' through the hole above the five aggregates.

However, when he actually saw it, Li Qi was stunned and stayed where he was.

————————

A few days later——

The chariots and horses prepared in Lingxiao Kingdom.

This chariot and horse is a typical jade road, but it is not the jade road of Liesu, but the one made by the Lord of Lingxiao.

In the Tang Dynasty, each city had its own golden platform. These were all funded by the humane court and had strict regulations on technical standards and scope of use, similar to standardized railway stations.

This is the embodiment of ‘rules’, everything is within the rules and arrangements.

But Wu Dao doesn't care about this, so there is only one list, which is enough for Wu Shenshan to use himself.

But they do not prevent others from using Jade Road, including the magic weapons under Jade Road's technical route. There are no confidentiality restrictions, and it does not matter if others learn it.

You can learn the Jade Road and the refining methods at the lower levels through any means, such as spending money to buy blueprints, learning from a master, picking up corpses on the roadside, you can learn it anyway.

Wushenshan doesn’t care if you stole it or bought it through legitimate means. They won’t hold you accountable for it, and you can use it or not. Even if you have a good relationship with a master, he will teach you directly.

In fact, the original Jade Road spread because the people did not care about keeping it secret.

You can refine what you want, pay for it, and harvest it by yourself. There will not be a "court" that requires everyone to build it together. This is the difference between witchcraft and humanity in all aspects.

Differences in values.

As for the Lord of Lingxiao Kingdom, as the Lord of Baiyue Kingdom, he is of the fifth rank. Although he cannot build a real jade road, the gold road under the jade road is still possible. However, for the sake of appearance, no matter it is the gold road, the elephant road, or the leather road, , wooden road, or Chongzhai, Yanzhai, Anche, chariot, etc., they all should claim to be jade roads to the outside world.

Anyway, it is indeed considered the ‘Jade Road Series’.

Li Qi is sitting among them now, and the Lord Lingxiao is sitting opposite.

He had already set out for a day, everything was ready, and they were on their way to Tang Kingdom.

It would take about a few days for them to arrive in Tang Dynasty, find any Tang Dynasty city, and change trains at Jintai over there. Taking Jintai, they could reach Chang'an within a quarter of an hour. Jintai is so convenient. But the price is not cheap.

If the money is not enough, or the place is not too far away, many people will choose to spend more time taking the underground train.

After all, if you don’t have money to buy a plane ticket, you can only take the green flight. This is normal.

Therefore, they are still on their way in Baiyue.

However, the Lord of Lingxiao, who was sitting opposite, looked at Li Qi with a worried look on his face.

Ever since Li Qi came back from Fengde Temple, he had looked so stupid, with empty eyes, like a blind man.

Only blind people truly have "no eyes". Even if normal people pretend to be blind, their eyes will focus subconsciously. As long as there is focus, there will be eyes.

The eyes of a blind person are useless to begin with, so naturally there is no need to focus, and they cannot see any look or emotion.

This is what Li Qi is like now.

Looking at Li Qi, Lord Lingxiao felt a little regretful. What happened at Fengde Temple? Why did this young master seem to have lost his soul since he came back that day?

He was still conscious, able to respond to external stimuli, and even speak, but it was clear that his absence was noticeable to everyone.

The description of "lost his soul" couldn't be more appropriate. He seemed to have become a machine that only reacted to external stimuli.

He can answer favorably, but he never takes the initiative to speak, and has no eyes. If no one moves him, he will stay in place, as motionless as if he is frozen.

If Fongtoku Temple hadn't sent him back, he might have been there forever.

To be honest, Lord Lingxiao was scared to death.

Isn't this young man's soul damaged? Became a fool?

Then his favor was not paid in vain? Can this young master still fulfill his original promise and let Liu Donghe write a poem to clear her name?

Besides, his elders wouldn't blame her for the young master becoming a fool, right?

The Lord of Lingxiao is not afraid that Wu Shenshan will blame him, because everyone knows how Wu Shenshan handles things.

High above, just like the sun, hanging quietly in the sky.

The influence of Wushen Mountain is like sunshine, which can be seen everywhere and spreads to the entire southwest of the world and even to the infinite world outside the territory. However, people can only feel the sunshine, but cannot personally touch the sun itself.

Not interfering with anything, Wushen Mountain is in an absolutely neutral attitude, neither good nor evil, and does not care about order or chaos. It just exists quietly, just like the world itself.

The world itself does not care about the people or things that exist in it, it just exists.

But she was very afraid of Li Qi's teacher, the great witch. If the young master was really stupid, then it would be better if the great witch was reasonable, but he was afraid that he would meet someone so angry that he would press her to death as soon as he raised his hand. Where can I go to reason?

Wushen Mountain won’t even care!

As mentioned before, Wushen Mountain will not interfere with anything. In fact, Wushen Mountain does not even develop any power. The great witches each do their own things according to their own interests. Only some sects maintain some basic rules of Wushen Mountain.

Wushen Mountain is more like a club than a sect, but the members of this club all hold the same belief, which is the supreme pursuit of Wu Dao. Therefore, the cohesion is particularly high, but they are not involved with each other and are free. Extremely strong.

It's a wonderful relationship, just like everything in nature.

All things follow the same path, and are independent but closely connected. They are connected by ecological circles, food chains, and other things, but individual individuals are not subject to any restrictions. Whether they die or disappear, nothing will be affected. .

This is the organizational structure of Wushen Mountain, and it is what the sects want to maintain.

But...even though she was scared, she didn't run away.

Because there are still reasons why Lord Lingxiao remains calm.

That is the protector of Master Wushenshan.

The young master's guardian still didn't show up, which meant that the situation was probably still under control, at least not to the point where the guardian needed to come forward.

Therefore, the Lord of Lingxiao did not panic, but remained calm, arranged everything for the trip, and set off for Tang Kingdom on time.

Unfortunately, she didn't have the slightest idea about Li Qi's situation, so she could only put Li Qi in the car, and then watched the previously alert and calm young man sitting there like a fool, almost drooling.

However, from Li Qi's perspective, everything is still at the back of Fengde Temple in Zunfo Mountain.

But, he was blind.

Can't see, can't see anything.

When the five aggregates were uncovered, Li Qi originally thought he could see something, but found that the world after the five aggregates were uncovered was pure nothingness, not even darkness.

No, it's not blindness.

He lost all his senses, but miraculously kept them all.
