"Our village is called Buffalo Village, and that mountain is called Jinxia Mountain. Every September on the ninth day of the lunar month, golden glow will appear on Jinxia Mountain. I heard that there are also gods?" A child, who seemed to be the boldest among the children, asked.
Said, and said a lot.
When Xiao Lin heard this, he was slightly stunned. The golden glow? Could it be that there are immortal cultivators on Jinxia Mountain?
This also made Xiao Lin a little bit interested. Then Xiao Lin sensed that several people were running towards us in the distance. They must be the adults of these children's families. Xiao Lin didn't want to interact with those adults.
When they met, he greeted Xiao Hei through his spiritual consciousness. Xiao Hei immediately rolled up a black light, took Xiao Lin away into the sky, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Several children immediately looked at the void blankly. After a long time, a voice came out: "Are they not gods?"
"There really are gods. When I grow up, I want to be a god."
At this moment, Xiao Lin and Xiao Hei had flown hundreds of miles and appeared in the void dozens of miles in front of a mountain peak.
Looking at the mountain peak in front of him, Xiao Lin was slightly stunned, because on this mountain peak, there was a stone path with thousands of steps from the foot of the mountain to the top, and at the end of the path, there were rows of magnificent temples.
It was already ten minutes after sunset, and the sound of chanting could still be heard from the temple. At the same time, Xiao Lin could also smell the rich scent of sandalwood.
"There is actually a Buddhist temple here?"
"Could this be the Lonely Sun Continent?" Xiao Lin thought of a possibility. He had read in an ancient book in Mitian Palace that to the west of the Holy Moon Continent, through the boundless ferocious sea, he could reach a
The new continent is the Lone Sun Continent. It is said that Buddhism is at its peak in this Lone Sun Continent, and there are many strong Buddhists.
If the area you are currently in is really the Lonely Sun Continent, that would be troublesome. With your current situation, let alone losing all your mana, even if your mana is restored, it will be a disaster to cross the ferocious ocean.
.
However, Xiao Lin knew from his elder brother Huan Tianmou that one could return to the Holy Moon Continent through the super cross-domain teleportation array in Xianfanhai, but where exactly was the super cross-domain teleportation array on the Holy Moon Continent? Xiao Lin
He didn't know that Huan Tianmou had never told him about it back then.
"Golden Light Meditation?" The last four words left by Chu Wu in the ancient book of experience suddenly appeared in Xiao Lin's mind. These four words seemed to be the key to breaking through to the first-level realm.
From these four words, Xiao Lin originally thought of the Buddha Sect, but within the cave, he had not thought that the four words left by Chuwu would be related to the Buddha Sect. He just teleported through the teleportation ball.
After arriving here, I met the Buddhist sect again, and everything seemed to fit together. The golden light meditation mentioned by Chu Wu might be the secret technique of the Buddhist sect.
"Is it necessary to practice this golden light meditation to truly complete the fusion of the blood sea and the heart and advance to the first-level realm?" Xiao Lin felt hot in his heart. Now that he had a clue, he had to find a way to get this golden light first.
The method of practicing meditation.
But Xiao Lin was also a little worried at the same time. When he was in the mortal world, he worked with the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong to destroy the ancient Buddha Tianzong in the West. It can be said that it was the Buddha's life and death enmity. I don't know who the Buddha sect was at that time.
There are no survivors. If they also ascended to the Lonely Sun Continent, I would probably be in a lot of trouble.
"As soon as you come, make peace with it." Xiao Lin's current state of mind has changed a lot. The way of Buddhist practice requires spreading the power of faith, and then gathering the power of devout faith from believers to strengthen his own soul.
This approach is actually a kind of plundering of mortals. After ten days, many mortals will lose themselves and lose their original intention, and become a state where they only know how to seek help from the Buddha without thinking about making progress. At the same time, it will also greatly weaken the
With the power of one's own soul, in the end, even after old age and death, the soul cannot reenter the reincarnation.
This is the reason why Xiao Lin has no good impression of Buddhism and Taoism.
However, the magical powers of the Buddha Sect are extraordinary, and all kinds of magical powers and secret techniques possess great power. When Xiao Lin was dealing with the Ancient Buddha Celestial Sect in the West, he had learned about the various magical powers of the Buddha Sect, which impressed him deeply.
Xiao Lin naturally had no intention of becoming a Buddhist, but after thinking for a moment, he let Xiao Hei enter the beast ring. He then landed at the foot of the mountain and walked toward the Buddhist temple on the top of the mountain as a mortal.
Buddhist cultivators should not be underestimated. They can gather the power of faith to strengthen the soul. Although it is not as good as Xiao Lin's practice of the Mending Heaven Sutra, it is one of the very few cultivation methods in the world that can strengthen the soul.
Therefore, Xiao Lin did not dare to use his huge power of spiritual consciousness to explore the reality in the temple, but went there as a pilgrim.
Along the way, there were many good men and women who came from all over the place. They all walked toward the mountain with pious faces. There were even many devout believers who knelt down every three steps and buckled their foreheads every nine steps.
Even though he was bleeding, he didn't know it, and he still walked towards the mountain with firm eyes.
Seeing this, Xiao Lin also shook his head secretly. The world is unkind and treats all things as stupid dogs. Immortal cultivators have no major conflicts of interest with ordinary mortals. In addition, most immortal cultivators are also born from mortals, so not only will they not harm
Most mortals will kill demons and protect ordinary mortals in the name of doing justice for heaven.
But Xiao Lin also understands that immortal cultivators are not kind people. In order to improve their cultivation, they will hunt and kill monsters. In the process, they not only improve their combat experience, but also obtain various alchemy and weapon refining materials from the monsters.
.
After all, it is also driven by profit.
As for the Demonic Way and the Buddhist Sect, the same is true. In order to practice magic, the Demonic Way monks need to devour the souls and blood essence of mortals, or use the souls of mortals to sacrifice magic weapons. The Buddhist Sect is relatively secretive and gentle. They promote Buddhism and teach people to
Goodness, in fact, is to control believers through these teachings and gather the power of believers' faith.
Buddhist monks, after gathering enough power of faith, can not only strengthen their own soul and practice the body-protecting Buddha's light, but also use the powerful soul to display various Buddhist magical powers.
However, this method of collecting the power of faith is extremely harmful to ordinary people. Those who are too pious will even run out of soul power and disappear when their lifespan is exhausted.
Although there are not many such people, the number of mortals killed is slightly less than that of demons.
Xiao Lin has no good impression of the Buddhist monks, but he is very interested in some of the magical powers of the Buddhist sect. The three thousand avenues all lead to the road to immortality. Xiao Lin does not reject the many cultivation methods left in the world, and also
There is the idea of learning from the strengths of others to improve one's own realm and understanding of the origin of the world.
While thinking about it, a full two hours passed before Xiao Lin entered the temple along with many devout pilgrims.
There are quite a few monks in the temple, coming and going in a hurry. Xiao Lin can see from a quick glance that these monks are not at a high level. Most of them are in the realm of first acquaintance. Only the leading ones have barely advanced.
Great Enlightenment is the state equivalent to the foundation-building stage of the world of immortality.
For Xiao Lin, it is not worth mentioning.
Xiao Lin followed the flow of people and walked around the huge temple intentionally or unintentionally. What made him a little disappointed was that even the abbot of this temple was only in the realm of Buddha's light. This also made Xiao Lin feel uncomfortable again.
Without any scruples, the huge power of divine consciousness emitted instantly, covering the entire Buddhist temple in the blink of an eye.
Everything about the Buddhist temple appeared in Xiao Lin's mind.
Sure enough, as Xiao Lin expected, the highest-level people in Jinxia Temple, namely the abbot and the two white-haired elders, are both in the early stage of the Buddha's Light Realm. Naturally, Xiao Lin's consciousness cannot be sensed at this level.
Therefore, Xiao Lin's existence cannot be discovered.
After understanding this, Xiao Lin was also a little disappointed. Could it be that the land under his feet was not the Lone Sun Continent? The real Lone Sun Continent was rumored to be a paradise for Buddhist cultivation. There were many eminent monks, Bodhi Arhats and Buddhas everywhere.
It can be seen that it is.
But Xiao Lin did not intend to leave just like that, but disappeared without a trace in a flash.
In a secluded Zen room, an old monk was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, holding a string of red sandalwood beads in his mouth and chanting Buddhist scriptures.
After a moment, the old monk seemed to sense something, and suddenly opened his eyes, and saw a young man in his twenties looking at him with a smile.
The old monk was shocked inside, but his face remained calm. He clasped his hands together and recited a Buddhist chant: "Who is the donor? If you want to burn incense and petition, please go to the incense burner outside."
"Old monk, I am not here to dedicate my faith to you, but to ask you a few questions. As long as you answer them truthfully, I will leave on my own afterwards and will not be your enemy."
The man was Xiao Lin, and his words were like a gust of cold wind. It was obvious that if the old monk in front of him did not cooperate, Xiao Lin would have to use some means.
The old monk is not a stupid person. Visitors can enter his meditation room silently, and he can't sense this person's realm at all. In other words, this person's true realm is probably unfathomable. Even if
The entire Buddhist cultivator in Jinxia Temple is probably not the enemy of this person.
"What's the matter with the donor? But it doesn't matter. As long as I know about it, I will tell you the truth." The old monk was also a sensible person. After weighing the situation, he immediately became honest.
"Old monk, where is this place?"
"This is Jinxia Temple in Jinxia Mountain, where I live in the sky."
"I'm not asking you this, but what region does Jinxia Temple in Jinxia Mountain belong to? What is the name of this continent?" Xiao Lin's face condensed and he asked, with a hint of impatience and coldness in his voice.
"Don't blame the donor. I am stupid and have not understood the donor's intention. This is the Golden Light Realm. The Golden Light Realm is located in the boundless ocean in the southeast corner of the Guri Continent. It is an isolated area overseas. The light of our Buddhist sect only shines the golden light.
A small part of the territory, most of the area, is controlled by the Wu barbarians."
"Woodman?" Xiao Lin heard this name for the first time, but from the words of the old monk in front of him, he knew that this Wuman must be the mortal enemy of the Buddhist monks, and the two must be at odds with each other.
"Are the Wu Barbarians a race?" Xiao Lin asked after thinking for a while.
When the old monk heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then showed a surprised expression: "Is it possible that the donor is not from the Golden Light Region and traveled here by chance, but anyone who is from the Lone Sun Continent probably knows Wuman."
Seeing the impatience on Xiao Lin's face, Monk Yuankong immediately began to introduce Xiao Lin.
It turns out that this Wuman is a race, rumored to be the descendants of the Wu clan and ferocious beasts. They are brutal and murderous by nature, and their bodies are very strong. An adult Wuman can even easily break a hill with one punch, and the Wuman also inherits
If you have the bloodline of ferocious beasts, you will have various magical powers of ancient ferocious beasts. Of course, not every Wuman has this kind of magical power, but only a small number of Wumans who have awakened the bloodline of ancient ferocious beasts can activate this talent.
.
Because the Wu barbarians are not educated and have always believed in their own fists and do not believe in Buddhism. They are also bloodthirsty and like to harm living creatures. The Buddhist sect launched an attack on the Wu barbarians in line with the purpose of subduing demons and eliminating demons.
The purpose is to protect many believers in Buddhism.
When Xiao Lin heard this, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart. If he were another person, he might be really influenced by what the sanctimonious old monk in front of him said, but Xiao Lin had dealt with the Buddha in the mortal world, so he naturally knew what the old monk said.
The most fundamental reason why the Wu barbarians were strangled by the Buddhist sect was that they did not respect religion and did not want to believe in the Buddhist sect.
"What other forces are there in Lone Sun Continent? Let me know." Xiao Lin came here for the first time, and still wanted to understand some of the divisions of forces in Lone Sun Continent so that he could have an idea.
Unexpectedly, when the old monk heard this, he showed a bitter smile and said: "The donor thinks too highly of me. The Guri Continent is vast, has many races, and the various forces are complicated. The Jinxia Temple that I control is just a golden light."
It is a small temple in a remote place in the region. I have spent most of my life and have never traveled all over the Golden Light Territory. How can I talk about the Lonely Sun Continent, which is many times bigger? But I do know one thing. The Lonely Sun Continent is very prosperous.
, there are all kinds of huge Buddhist and Taoist sects everywhere, and there are countless Buddhist masters, but I have no chance to go there in this life."
Xiao Lin heard what Yuan Kong said and knew that what he said was not a lie. Moreover, what he heard was not a secret, and there was no need to lie.
This made Xiao Lin a little disappointed, because he didn't get what he wanted to know, but it wasn't that he got nothing. At least he finally knew where he was, which was the rumored Buddhist holy land - Guri Continent.
.
Xiao Lin couldn't help but feel bitter. It seemed that the way home was still far away.
Thinking of this, Xiao Lin waved his sleeves, and a huge amount of spiritual power poured directly into the sea of consciousness between the old monk's brows, directly erasing his recent memory. When he wakes up tomorrow, Monk Yuankong will only think that
I fell asleep while chanting sutras by myself.
As for the traces of Xiao Lin, with a flash of black light, he and Xiao Hei disappeared without a trace. ()
