Chapter Seventeen: Die

Since Fahai has been in retreat in the meditation room for more than a month, he has already deduced the practice of Hinayana Buddhism after annihilation. The reason why he has not broken the mirror is because he is not sure that after breaking the mirror, he will not repeat the misery of his Buddhist predecessors for hundreds of years.

It was the same mistake, but today, in front of the orange tree he planted with his own hands, Fahai finally took that step by mistake. After that step, he would be in a desperate situation after crossing the realm of destruction!

Just after the lotus fragrance grew in Fahai's body and the broken mirror was destroyed, the big bell of Jinshan Temple seemed to be alive. The loud and heavy copper bell sounded far away. Fahai who was far away in Zhenfusi heard it as if he was very close at hand. He continued for ten consecutive

Eight tones.

In the distant and loud ringing of the bell, Fahai seemed to see the way he had seen the Tathagata Dharmakaya for the first time in his dream that day. The Buddha was sitting on the lotus platform as tall as a mountain. When he looked at the Fahai below for the first time, he only spit out four words.

Character.

That's what I heard.

The Buddha is far away in the Western Heaven, lying high on a lotus platform, with a bronze door separating him from the human world. He just turned a few long lines of cause and effect, and pushed the sea of ​​dharma into a dead end.

After Fahai realized that he had accidentally broken the mirror, his first reaction was anger, but it soon turned into depression. Perhaps this is the gap between humans and gods.

Fa Hai's heart was gradually filled with twilight energy, but the Qi cultivation within his body was showing a high-spirited momentum, full of vitality and endless circulation. Only Fa Hai could vaguely sense the various murderous intentions hidden under this seemingly prosperous Taoism.

How long can I live? One year? Two years? Or less than half a year?

In history, those eminent monks who had the courage to take such a step in the practice of Hinayana Buddhism rarely lived for more than two years. The fastest was less than half a year. Fa Hai felt that based on what he had done before, he might not be able to survive for half a year.

There won't be.

Just when Fahai was thinking about this problem, a familiar sigh came from behind him.

"It seems it's still a step too late."

This sigh came from a woman behind Fa Hai. Her soft voice was different from Nan Qirong's cold voice, but indifferent and lazy, like a little girl who couldn't wake up all year round.

After Fahai heard this voice, he finally felt a little hope in his heart. He turned around and looked at the woman in white who was lying on the eaves of Zhenfusi, her whole body as soft as a bone, in a daze.

He saw another person on the face of the woman in white, and the words he was about to say stopped.

Bai Suzhen jumped lightly from the eaves, the edge of her plain white dress was blown up by the wind, like a fairy walking on the water. In a few steps, she stood in front of Fa Hai, who was also wearing a snow-white dress. This

The demon god, who had always been indifferent and cold, suddenly frowned, as if he was extremely disgusted by Fa Hai's lotus fragrance, and asked:

"Enter the Tiger's Realm?"

Fahai nodded silently. Today, due to an unexpected whim, he fell into the trap of Tathagata's plan. It was really not a happy thing, so he was quite silent.

Worldly practice can be divided into six realms and twelve levels. Taoism also calls it the Twelve Layers. Fuhu in the fourth realm is already a land god. It is a process of transformation from a mortal body to an immortal. It is the path for worldly practitioners to achieve enlightenment.

A crucial step in the journey. If you step through this door, you will be one of the gods and immortals who will live as long as heaven and earth... Of course, that was in the past. In the past three hundred years, all the monks who have stepped through this door will undoubtedly not die violently in the end. The Tathagata of the West specially made it for

Fahai set up a game in the Zhenfu Division to lure him to take this step by mistake. From then on, he could never look back. Even if he exhausted his energy and cultivation, Fahai could do it with just a few breaths even with Fahai's current immortal body.

complex.

Bai Suzhen curled her lips and seemed to be speechless about Fahai's current state: "The Fuhu Realm is also called the Wangyou Tianren in Taoism. The monks who have passed this realm can no longer be called human beings, but immortals. Immortals spit out

As soon as you take a breath, the energy of Qi will be generated and circulate by itself, and every move you make is a form of cultivation."

If this was said to Fa Hai before, he wouldn't be able to understand it at all. But now that he has entered the Tao Fuhu Realm and experienced the various differences of the immortals, he also understands about half of it, and he immediately asked:

"Are you saying that even if I dare not do anything next, my cultivation will continue to rise uncontrollably?"

Bai Suzhen nodded with a smile: "If you don't go, you will come to the mountain, and the mountain will come to you. This is the Wangyou Heavenly Man. Aren't you very happy?"

Fa Hai rarely cursed: "Kaite Niang's heart!"

Although he had shaken hands with Fahai and made peace, the demon god still seemed to like to see Fahai suffer. He said with a smile: "Do you want to know how those few eminent monks who walked in front of you died?

?”

In the past few days, Fahai had almost memorized all the Buddhist classics in the past. He had also read the lives of those eminent monks who dared to be the first in the world no less than a dozen times. He said without thinking:

"What is recorded in the book is that when one becomes obsessed with evil spirits, inner and outer demons arise everywhere, causing the meridians to burst and lead to death."

Bai Suzhen sneered when she heard this: "Buddha's method."

Fa Hai was shocked when he heard this, but this shock was not a fright, but a surprise. If the cause of death of those eminent monks who had entered the Fuhu Realm was not what was written in the book, this shows that

There may be some kind of truth hidden behind the real cause of their death, and this truth may very well guide Fahai to the end of Hinayana Buddhism and get rid of this dangerous situation set by Tathagata.

"Miss Bai has something to say, but it's okay to say it. Fahai is all ears."

When it came to matters of life and death, Fahai bowed solemnly to Bai Suzhen and asked for advice sincerely. However, the latter quietly raised the corners of his mouth and looked at Fahai playfully:

"Really want to hear it?"

"Want to hear."

Fahai replied honestly.

"So afraid of death?"

"I've always been scared to death about fear of death."

This witticism made Bai Suzhen laugh non-stop, and asked again: "Then the day you became a monk, how come you were not afraid?"

Fa Hai calmed down his expression and said seriously to Bai Suzhen, "That's different."

Bai Suzhen was stunned for a moment, then looked back as usual and said calmly:

"Actually, those eminent monks who had the courage to take that step did not die due to internal or external demons or obsessions. How could those who had the mentality to overcome the difficulties that Buddhism has faced for hundreds of years die in that kind of meditation?

In a state of unstable mind?"

Fahai nodded in agreement, and just as he was about to speak, he saw Bai Suzhen's eyes suddenly turned cold, and said word by word: "They are all supported to death by their own cultivation Qi!"

Suffocated to death? The majestic terrestrial gods and Wangyou heavenly beings are actually supported to death by their own cultivation Qi?

Fahai was stunned and disbelieving about this answer at first, but he quickly grasped the key information.

Heavenly beings in the Fuhu Realm naturally have Qi flowing between exhalation and inhalation, which means that their cultivation is growing and progressing all the time. Therefore, Bai Suzhen's answer of "staying alive" is unbelievable at first hearing, but it can be carefully considered.
