Chapter 224 [Bodhisattva Realm, Local Area Network]
The furnace nourishes hundreds of meridians and myriad paths blend together. This is easier said than done than combining myriad blood into one and refining chaotic blood.
The Sky-Devouring Empress walked on the path of a chaotic body from the beginning, but it was not until her second life that she reached perfection and created the Immortal Heavenly Art.
As strong as Ye Fan was, it was only in the late years of his fourth life that he truly cultivated all the classics, melted all the ways into one, and transformed into a chaotic body, living out his fifth life.
It can be seen that nurturing the Hundred Sutras in a furnace is an extremely long process, and the number of scriptures required is incredible.
According to the usual methods, Lin Xian might not be able to evolve a chaotic body in three lifetimes, let alone his lifetime.
Unless there is an information explosion, unless there is a scripture explosion, unless the monks in one star field after another in the universe are no longer bound by the limitations of space, break the barriers of time, and engage in truly free communication, discussion, exchange, and speech, sparks of wisdom will splash out in countless confrontations.
From the quasi-emperor to the ordinary person, everyone can use this tool to explain their understanding of Tao and share their views on the scriptures.
This idea was extremely crazy. If the cultivators of this era knew about it, they would definitely curse Lin Xian and say that he was crazy.
Not even saints can travel in the stars. Only saint kings are qualified to survive in the depths of the universe. Even a great saint who makes space jumps and refines a five-color altar runs the risk of getting lost and needs coordinates to cross.
If one wants to ignore the limitations of space and discuss Taoism with geniuses from different planets, one must be at the quasi-emperor level to be able to cross the starry sky in the flesh. But even for a quasi-emperor, it takes a certain amount of time to cross the infinite star field.
As for establishing connections with every living being and communicating with all races in the universe at all times, even the ancient emperors could not do it.
But Lin Xian knew that although this matter was difficult, it was not impossible to achieve.
From the Internet technology on Earth to the virtual world of gods in the ancient times, all are verifying the possibility of a virtual platform that allows cultivators from all over the world to gather together and discuss the Dao.
In the ancient times of immortals, the immortal kings worshipped by the ancient ancestors joined forces, communicated with each other, and jointly constructed a spiritual world known as the virtual world of gods. The laws of the universe were almost no different from those of the material universe.
When a person's spirit enters it to practice, and after returning to the real world, it will bring all its insights to the physical body and transform together, just like the practice of the real body.
This is the Internet of the ancient immortal era, which is incredibly powerful. It is not an illusory illusion, but a true spiritual universe. It comes from the great power of the Immortal King who created the world and is used to cultivate future generations.
At that time, the ancient countries in the nine heavens and ten earths could sense the virtual world of gods when they worshipped gods, and reciting the true name of the Immortal King was the password to open the virtual world of gods.
In today's Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, there are no such conditions. The Immortal King has already fallen and turned into the elixir of immortality, and the Virtual God Realm has turned into ruins and is no longer visible.
However, in the Western Desert, there is a similar yet different spiritual realm.
Based on the infinite power of Mount Sumeru, radiating out, starting from the great Buddha Amitabha, generations of Buddhist disciples and believers, and countless temples in the Western Desert, have jointly built a Bodhisattva world.
Although the Bodhisattva Realm is not as majestic as the Virtual God Realm and cannot radiate to the nine heavens and ten earths, it has basically all the necessary functions.
In the center of Mount Sumeru, there is even a part of the spiritual world that has become materialized and can carry the soul and the body.
Such a spiritual realm may be called the Western Desert Internet, or the Buddhist LAN, or the Buddhist spiritual forum.
"The Bodhisattva Realm can radiate to a region. If it goes one step further and becomes the real Western Paradise, it is still unknown whether it can radiate to a certain star region."
"The technological level of the Earth is too low, but the technological avenue of the Eternal Ancient Star has produced two people who have achieved enlightenment. This achievement is not low."
"What kind of sparks will be created by the faith of Amitabha Buddha and the technology of Emperor Daoyan?"
"Beidou LAN? Or even the great universe Internet!"
Lin Xian stood in the holy city and looked towards the west, the Western Desert. This was an ancient sacred land with too many legends and heritage.
Sooner or later he would have to go to the West, not only for his faith and the Bodhisattva realm, but also because of the great Dharma of Buddhism.
The ancient scriptures are not only Buddhist but also Taoist, and even the great emperors of the human race have borrowed a lot from them.
The Nine Celestial Lords of Taoism originated from the mythological era. They were rooted in Cao Yusheng, the Celestial Lord who transcends tribulations and created the Nine Secrets. Now most of them have withered and are either buried underground or in the depths of the universe.
Only Buddhism has a long history. It occupies an area full of temples. Some of the oldest temples are so ancient that their origins are difficult to fathom. They may have existed before the birth of Amitabha Buddha.
These holy temples hold the ancient six-word mantra that is comparable to the nine secrets. They contain the secrets of the beginning of the universe and are suspected to be the inheritance of the Immortal Monk King.
When one reaches the highest level of practice, one will possess the greatest wisdom, great perseverance, and great compassion in the universe, have the ability to create the world, and be able to subdue all the gods.
But before that, I still need to try to see to what extent I have practiced the Seventy-two Transformations and Changing the World.
Lin Xian wandered around the holy city, changing his appearance into a child with clear and foolish eyes, but extraordinary strength and restrained fairy spirit, like an uncarved jade in a stone.
All kinds of people gathered in the holy city, including the powerful people from the East Wilderness, the leader of the Central Plains, the noble family from the North Plains, the great monster from the South Ridge, and the divine monk from the West Desert. Naturally, there were people with extraordinary divine eyes, and soon several old monsters took a fancy to the spiritual child transformed by Lin Xian.
"Child, are you willing to practice with me?"
It didn't take long for a hidden powerful man to take the bait. He held a piece of source in his hand and asked with a tempting smile.
"Get out of the way, old man!" A Zhongzhou emperor jumped out to grab the man, shouting, "What's the point of living with you? The child worships me as his foster father. In the future, you will be equal to the prince, rich and glorious, and be crowned a king, ruling over millions of territories. Isn't that wonderful?
“Well done, well done… This boy has a destiny with Buddha.” An old monk with white eyebrows and a nine-layer divine ring on his head also came over to join in the fun.
As one powerful person after another came to the fore, even a king came forward, wanting to accept the spiritual child and pass on the Taoist tradition.
Lin Xian appeared ignorant on the surface, but he was secretly happy in his heart, as his own transformation technique had already reached perfection, and the seventy-two transformations were not just talk, he really had the power to cover the sky.
So he quietly changed his body, and his inner aura began to exude some demonic energy, which attracted several big demons nearby who were watching the fun to come over.
"This is my human fairy child, what are you monsters doing here?"
The powerful humans were united at this time and were extremely xenophobic, wanting to drive out some of the strong ones.
A great demon from Nanling sneered and said, "This child might have the body of a celestial demon. His ancestor was an unparalleled demon god, but his bloodline has been dormant for many years."
"That's right, follow us, and maybe you can become a demon king." Some demon kings are careless and will snatch people away without any hesitation.
"Kid, what's your name?" asked the master of the Demon King Palace, a great demon with a kind face.
Lin Xian was watching the fun and didn't mind the big deal. She raised her eyelids and said timidly, "My last name is Xue."
"Snow?!"
The Demon King Palace Master was struck by lightning and was no longer relaxed. He re-examined Lin Xian and activated his magic eyes. He finally saw through Lin Xian's first layer of disguise and saw the dragon energy rising from the immortal bone, just like the blood of a real dragon. "Dragon blood..." The Demon King Palace Master was extremely excited and said, "Is it really God's will that he still has descendants in the world?"
In the end, Lin Xian followed the Demon King Palace Master, who was the Taoist lineage of the former Demon King Xue Yueqing.
It’s just that the Demon King Palace did not inherit the Demon King’s imperial weapons. It is a very awkward position for an extreme force, which is also the reason why Lin Xian chose it.
Without the suppression of the imperial soldiers, he could leave calmly if he was exposed.
Hearing that the Demon Queen's descendant had appeared, all the supreme elders of the Demon King's Palace gathered together, and even a few old kings rushed over without stopping, surrounding Lin Xian to conduct research.
"Does the Demon King have descendants?" An elder disagreed, saying, "The Demon King was infatuated with love all his life and never got married. This is recorded in historical documents."
“But how do you explain the dragon blood?” The Demon Emperor Palace Master firmly believed that his surname was Xue, and he must have a great connection with the Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing.
In the end, the dispute could not be resolved, each side held their own opinion, and they could only ask for an ancestral artifact to determine the bloodline.
The final result was that Lin Xian had dragon blood, but not the blood of the Demon King.
"Maybe he is the descendant of a peerless dragon god." An old demon king made the final decision. The Demon King Palace Master had gained a genius, but it was too early to make him his heir.
The young master of the Demon King Palace of this generation, Nan Yao, has extraordinary talent. Most of the resources have been allocated to him, and it is impossible to train a second young master.
The Demon King Palace naturally values the spirit child transformed by Lin Xian, but he will not be the core. Instead, he will be treated as an elder and cultivated as the foundation for the future.
"You can deceive the powerful king, but you can't deceive the extreme forces."
A flash of enlightenment emerged in Lin Xian's mind, and he knew where his current limit was. So after studying some scriptures from the Demon King Palace, he decisively sacrificed the Star Spirit Pot and begged the gods within to take action.
Although the Star Spirit Pot is only a great sacred artifact and the deity within it is immature, the great saint Wei Yi who refined it is still alive and can automatically revive at any time, so there is no need to worry about energy consumption.
It immediately fully revived, and the Great Sage took Lin Xian across the void, leaving Nanling, crossing a region, and sneaking into the wilderness. It caused a commotion afterwards, but several demon kings failed to find any clues, so the matter ended in nothing.
Lin Xian, who escaped from the Demon King's Palace, returned to the Holy City again. This time he learned his lesson and no longer targeted extreme forces. Instead, he contacted ordinary holy places and common sects.
This time he was not fishing, but impersonating someone else and observing the core disciples of some sects. He selected the ascetics who were usually taciturn and devoted to cultivation, knocked them out, disguised himself, blended in among them, studied scriptures, and later announced a retreat and released the unconscious disciples.
The seventy-two transformations were against the will of heaven, and he covered it up by changing the world. Even in front of some sacred artifacts of the religion, Lin Xian was not exposed.
In the end, Lin Xian was so mad that he even spared no effort on Shuiyue Cottage, Guanghan Palace and other sects. For a few days, a few fairies suddenly appeared in the Holy City, like a flash in the pan, and then disappeared.
"It's not shabby to practice."
Lin Xian muttered something, and finally disguised himself as a young monk. After leaving endless legends in the Eastern Desert, he escaped into the Western Desert.
As the name suggests, the Western Desert is a barren land with endless deserts and golden sands stretching for miles from time to time.
Lin Xian speculated that the chaotic body was divided into five major domains in the past: Zhongzhou was the Dragon, Donghuang was the Taoist Palace, Nanling was the Four Poles, Beiyuan was the Wheel Sea, and Ximo was the Immortal Platform.
Among them, Xiantai was severely damaged, so the Western Desert is so barren, even worse than Beiyuan which was implicated by the Fighting Saint Emperor.
But just as there are oases in the desert, there are also vibrant places in the Western Desert. The Great Emperor Amitabha established his Taoist tradition here and spent his entire life transforming this barren land into a pure land, which can be regarded as a great achievement.
Buddhist disciples of later generations respected the Buddha's great wish and walked on this land. Arhats, Bodhisattvas, and ancient Buddhas walked in the mortal world, lived with all living beings, performed miracles, and saved people from suffering.
It was for this reason that Buddhism grew increasingly prosperous, gradually conquering the barren Western Desert and establishing the supreme Taoist tradition on this desolate land.
Buddhism is the mainstream here. Even if other traditions can enter, it is difficult for them to become the mainstream. Temples can be seen everywhere, just like the lotus flowers all over the ground.
Lin Xian walked slowly forward, measuring the earth with his feet, like a Buddhist practitioner. Finally, after walking through thousands of miles of yellow sand, he saw the vitality.
The clear Wuliang Jinshen Lake, the magnificent Bodhisattva Plateau, the towering Ancient Buddha Mountain, and all of these suddenly make your view clear.
This is the pure land where the Buddhist temple is located. Due to the transformation by the power of faith, it is no longer desolate and is now suitable for living beings to live in.
Lin Xian found a herdsman and asked him the name of the temple there.
Finally we learned that this place is the Alang Ancient Temple, a temple with a long history. It is unknown how many tens of thousands of years it has existed. The temple has collapsed and been repaired, but incense has always been popular.
The great Buddha Amitabha once stopped here to preach and talk about the Dharma, and it has become a place of pilgrimage for this reason.
However, before Amitabha the Great, there were monks here, it is extremely ancient.
Otherwise, to whom would Amitabha Buddha speak?
"Om Ma Ni Pa Mi Hum."
Lin Xian recited the six Buddhist words, as if bathing in the infinite Buddha light. Then he changed the subject and recited the Sutra of Saving People in the Pure Land of Buddhism: "Once upon a time, in the blue sky, the blue sky sang, and the great floating land was covered. The sun and the moon in the sky, the stars and the Xuan Ji, the mountains and the seas hid the clouds, and the sky was free of floating clouds..."
There is also a mysterious force operating in the dark, and it continues even in the Buddhist country.
Others marveled at the mystery of Lingbao Tianzun, who specialized in overcoming corpse disasters and created such a mysterious method that involved the power of reincarnation and lasted for thousands of years. It was truly a brilliant talent.
But Lin Xian, who had been to the chaotic ancient era, noticed something wrong from another perspective.
The beginning of the blue sky?
Is this the day of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths? !
Dachi Heaven, Yuyu Heaven, Qingwei Heaven, Wuliang Heaven... all have their own gods, and their realm starts from the quasi-immortal king. There are also some extremely talented people who have already touched the threshold of the immortal king.
The nine heavens and ten earths were destroyed, and the former Immortal King and Lord of Heaven died in battle, but similar flowers bloomed thousands of years later.
Yu Yu Tianzhu and Ling Bao Tianzun, Immortal Monk King and Amitabha the Great Emperor, Da Chi Tianzhu and Daode Tianzun, Qing Wei Tianzhu and Yuan Shi Tianzun, Wuliang Tianzhu and Wuliang Tianzun, these guys are all dead but still alive, there are no newcomers, they are all old hands.
In addition, since Dujie Tianzun taught me the little trick of the reincarnation seal, I was really afraid that these old guys would come back to life.
Lingbao is used to slay immortals and to defeat corpse disasters. Don’t end up becoming the biggest source of disaster.
Everyone says that they don't believe in reincarnation, but the existence of the vast universe and every living being is the greatest proof of reincarnation.
