Chapter 87: The Way of Heaven is the Way of Demons
Becoming an immortal is divided into three steps: practice to the peak of transcending tribulations, survive the tribulation of becoming an immortal, and transform one's spiritual energy into immortal power.
The tribulation of becoming an immortal cannot be passed through silently. It is not possible to survive the tribulation in a secret realm. If there are not enough people in the secret realm, the tribulation of becoming an immortal will not come.
Immortal power must be processed by spiritual energy, but no one knows how it is processed. This is the foundation of the immortal world, and it is impossible for the immortal immortal to know.
"Old Buddha, tell me, how did you become an immortal?"
Old Buddha Xumi's light is restrained, his body is full, and he has a lifespan of ten thousand years during the tribulation period. He should have looked very old, but now he is full of energy, as if he still has a lot of life left.
Jiang Li had seen many descriptions of immortals in ancient books, and had also seen the two true immortals, the Everlasting Immortal and the Red Dust Fairy. He could see that Old Buddha Xumi had become a real immortal.
An immortal who became an immortal in Kyushu before going to the immortal world.
Even if he didn't see with his own eyes that Old Buddha Xumi had become an immortal, Jiang Li was 80% certain that the mastermind behind the incident was Old Buddha Xumi.
When he first met the Shenzang sect member, the old man in the transformation stage, the man behind the scenes saw that something was not going well and went to the Tianyuan Dynasty to kill General Che Wu.
Being able to see all this next to Jiang Li without being discovered by Jiang Li shows that the mastermind behind the scenes is proficient in the art of space.
Ji Kongkong said that the mastermind behind the scenes suddenly appeared behind General Che Wu and killed Che Wu in the combined stage with one move, indicating that the mastermind behind the scenes was either at the peak of the combined stage or at the stage of transcending tribulation.
Later, the mastermind behind the scenes led him to take Ji Kongkong to the secret realm of Shenzang Sect and destroy the secret realm. His calculation was so accurate that only people who are familiar with Jiang Li can make this judgment.
Old Buddha Xumi is the second oldest person in Kyushu. Jiang Li has also asked him many times about cultivation issues. He asked him what kind of people the emperors of the past were, asked him to help find the immortal world, and asked him to see the path generated by the system.
Passage to other worlds...
There is also the method of Shenzang Cult, the way of preaching is too proficient, which shows that the mastermind behind the scenes is familiar with the preaching routine.
Jiang Li had met Sun Yuan and heard Yu Yin talk about the battle with General Shenwei. Neither of them had used space methods before, indicating that they were not familiar with the way of space. How could the space where the Jueling Array be located be the same as the world of Kyushu?
Perfectly parallel?
All these things can be explained by a tribulation-era master who is proficient in the way of space that Jiang Li doesn't know, or by an extraterrestrial demon who has sneaked into Kyushu, so Jiang Li thinks that the old Buddha is only 80% possible.
Now that we see the old Buddha becoming an immortal, this 80% may become 10%.
Jiang Li saw during the second ceremony of the Shenzang Sect that several priests joined forces to kill a monk in the transformation stage, and the merits were equally divided.
At that time, he was wondering whether he could gain merit by providing help with murder. Or, from another perspective, could the leader of the Shenzang Sect gain merit every time a believer killed someone?
In the past, he could only guess, but when he met Sun Yuan and Old Buddha Xumi, everything became clear.
The leader can share the merits of the believers, even if the believers only account for a small part, the majority belongs to the leader.
The power of merit can turn decay into magic, and it can also unreasonably transform spiritual energy into immortal power.
"Donor Jiang is joking. If you do good deeds for heaven and accumulate virtue, you will naturally become an immortal." The old Buddha smiled and admitted that he had become an immortal, which shocked the disciples. Even his most optimistic disciples, Wu Zhi Buddha, were also surprised.
Jiang Li walked towards Old Buddha Xumi step by step, his momentum rising steadily, like a spear piercing the sky, extremely powerful.
"I know that Lao Buddha has fought against demons many times and made great achievements in battle. He has indeed done a lot of good deeds. But I don't know if doing these good deeds will bring any merit?"
Seeing Jiang Li's attitude, the Buddhist disciples gave way one after another.
They still haven't figured out what happened. When did the old Buddha become an immortal? Why did the Human Emperor become angry?
"The murders are immeasurable and the merits are immeasurable. Why should the donor ask questions knowingly?" the old Buddha folded his hands.
"The donor is also proficient in Buddhism. Why don't you take a look and see if I have any karma?" The old Buddha's expression was subtle, seeming to be smiling or crying.
Anyone who understands Buddhism knows that the most important thing in practicing Buddhism is to do good deeds and accumulate virtue. You should not kill innocent people by mistake, otherwise you will have overwhelming karma that will burn your body, red lotus karma will burn your heart, and you will be miserable. You need to do a lot of good deeds to eliminate it.
The previous Buddhist disciple unintentionally killed countless people and was burdened with karma that would be impossible to make up for in his lifetime. Only then did he turn the Buddha into a demon and fall into the devil's path.
"Donor, the sky has changed, and the way of heaven is the way of devil."
Jiang Li was silent for a moment and wanted to refute Old Buddha Xumi, but he didn't know how to refute.
"Why do you want to become an immortal?"
Old Buddha Xumi smiled slightly, as if he was mocking Jiang Li silently, or mocking himself: "Donor Jiang, if I don't become an immortal, I still have three years to live, and I don't want to die."
"Doesn't Buddhism pay attention to karma and retribution in the next life and this life? Do good deeds in this life and become a heavenly being in the next life. Old Buddha, haven't you investigated life and death?"
Old Buddha Xumi became excited, stopped sitting in the lotus position, and stood up suddenly. He was tall and strong, more than two meters tall: "Afterlife, afterlife, afterlife! Of course I have not discovered life and death!"
"I will forget everything in the next life. What's the use of reincarnating as a human being? What's the use of enjoying happiness! I'm dead in this life! I'm dead!"
"Why should I do good things for the next life? What should I do in this life? Is the meaning of this life just for the next life?"
"Jiang Li, answer me!"
All the disciples were stunned. They had never seen the old Buddha lose his composure like this. No, this could already be called crazy.
Wu Zhi Buddha put his hands together and his lips trembled slightly. His senior brother was curious and listened attentively, and found that he was actually reciting the Rebirth Mantra?!
"Since you only live for this life, then settle the consequences of these nine million people."
Jiang Li finally understood why Lao Fo forced Sun Yuan to launch the Jueling Formation. Logically speaking, he could move his position, give up the Shenzang Sect, and start all over again.
He has no time.
Jiang Li didn't stop as he spoke. He stood in front of Old Buddha Xumi, looking up at the senior he once respected.
"Old Buddha, no one wants to die. If you don't want to die, neither will the nine million people in Tianyuan."
"That's true." Old Buddha Xumi sighed helplessly, "Jiang Li, do you know why I didn't tell you how to obtain the power of merit after I obtained it from the demon outside the territory? Because our thoughts are really different."
"The true Buddha talks about sacrificing your body to save all sentient beings, but I can't do it. Only you, the Emperor, can do it."
The "Swastika" character under the Leshan Kingdom is golden and extremely dazzling.
The country of Leshan shrank sharply and appeared in the palm of the old Buddha Xumi, and the people in the country disappeared without a trace.
This is something that Master Da Meng never did until his death.
The country of Leshan does not exist, and the people are all illusions. However, this illusion is too real. It can be touched and used, and it is no different from reality.
An illusion that cannot be seen even during the integration stage!
The great magical power of Buddhism that combines the way of illusion and the way of space - the kingdom of Buddha in the palm of your hand!
