Chapter 1073: Buddhist scriptures and state of mind (1)
Chapter 1,073 Buddhist Sutras and State of Mind (Part 1)
Lin Xuan's caution paid off, and with his escape skills, three days later, he was thousands of miles away. Although Monk Kongxuan hated him to the core, he couldn't find anyone and could only call out to Naihe.
This is an uninhabited wasteland, with no animals even visible within a hundred miles. On the top of an inconspicuous hill, stood an ordinary-looking immortal cultivator.
Needless to say, it is Lin Xuan.
He was playing with a crystal-clear treasure in his hand. The Sky-Moon Crystal was something that could only be found in the human world, but Lin Xuan also found it difficult to judge whether it was worth it to turn against the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect for this treasure.
But now that things have happened, Lin Xuan has no regrets.
With his magical power, he can go anywhere in the world. Unless he encounters an old monster in the clutch period, even if he faces two or three great monks, he can't defeat them, but it will be easy to escape.
What's more, in addition to the Tianyue Crystal, Monk Kongxuan's storage bag also fell into his hands.
As the head of the Luohan Hall, this guy has an extremely rich net worth. He has hundreds of high-grade crystals, which is an astonishing amount of wealth.
In addition, there are several Buddhist treasures, such as the Zen staff that can turn into a roc, which is very powerful.
And more than ten bottles of elixirs!
Lin Xuan smelled it and his face showed joy. In the past, he was the young master of the elixir mountain. Even if he was not familiar with Buddhist elixirs, there was no problem in judging the properties of the medicine.
They are all body-refining elixirs suitable for Nascent Soul cultivators, and they are all of high grade.
It's a pity that there is no prescription.
But one must be content, and Lin Xuan was already very satisfied with this kind of harvest.
In addition, he also found more than ten volumes of scriptures in the storage bag.
Lin Xuan was overjoyed that the other party's Vajra Indestructible Body Magic was really good, so he held the book in both hands and read each volume carefully.
On the surface, they are all Buddhist scriptures and Zen principles, but God knows if there is anything good hidden in them.
Lin Xuan patiently spent several days reading about the Diamond Sutra, the Lotus Sutra, the Shurangama Sutra, the Ksitigarbha Sutra, the Infinite Life Sutra, and the Sutra of Ten Good Deeds.
I was so confused after watching it.
"How is it, young master, have you gained anything? Have you found the secret book for practicing the Vajra Indestructible Body magic skill?" Yue'er said anxiously.
However, Lin Xuan's expression was a little strange. He nodded first and then shook his head.
Such a reaction naturally confused the girl.
"Master, can you just tell me, don't use such actions, I'm stupid and don't understand." Yue'er frowned slightly and said a little depressed.
"There are no secrets on cultivation. These are just ordinary scriptures, no different from those in secular temples." Lin Xuan sighed and said slowly.
"How is this possible for an ordinary scripture?" Yue'er was stunned for a moment, with an obvious surprise on her face: "If it's just an ordinary scripture, why would the other party keep it in the storage bag so preciously?"
"It's very simple. These dozen volumes of scriptures are all hand-copied by senior monks. They are marked with experience notes. It's okay to call them treasures, but they have nothing to do with immortal cultivators."
"I see, it's still useless to us. The young master is not a Buddhist cultivator, so what's the use of these scriptures?" Yue'er said a little depressed.
"That's not necessarily true." Lin Xuan had a strange look on his face.
"Why?" the girl asked in confusion.
Lin Xuan fell into silence. It was an unexpected gain for him, but it remains to be confirmed whether this is the case.
As we all know, compared to monks of the same level, Lin Xuan is not only greedy for more, but also practices extremely quickly. This is all thanks to the blue star sea, which allows him to swallow a large number of pills.
It took more than two hundred years to reach the peak of the middle Nascent Soul stage. I dare not say that this speed will be unprecedented, but there are certainly not many ancients before us.
But going too fast also has its disadvantages. The tempering of the state of mind obviously cannot keep up with the progress of the supernatural power. Although Lin Xuan also noticed this problem and deliberately looked for opportunities to train himself, to be fair, he really didn't find any good ideas to solve it.
The Taoist mind is unstable!
I can't see any disadvantages for a while, but not only is it easy to go wrong when practicing, but it will also be quite restrictive when you attack the clutch state in the future.
This is like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark, threatening Lin Xuan's path to immortality at any time.
Originally, Lin Xuan also had a stupid idea. After he advanced to become a great monk, he would postpone his cultivation and go to the world of mortals. He would experience joy, anger and sorrow, and slowly sharpen his state of mind bit by bit until it is equal to his own state.
together.
But to be honest, this is really not a good idea.
Falling into the world of mortals means suffering.
Of course, for Lin Xuan, suffering a lot in order to practice is nothing.
Even if he goes up the mountain of swords or gets off the oil pan, he won't frown.
But the suffering here can only be tempered by experiencing joy, anger, sorrow, and joy. To put it simply, in the world of mortals, starting from the humblest one, you can't fight back, and you can't retaliate when scolded.
The physical pain is nothing, but this kind of training requires unimaginable humiliation.
You can imagine that if Lin Xuan were a mortal, it would be fine, but he is obviously a cultivator of immortals, and is already the top being in the human world, but he has to go to the world of mortals, suffer the anger of mortals, and just fool around, or even
The leader of a street beggar can also be beaten and scolded at will.
Lin Xuan must endure it. Only by suffering all the hardships in the world can he sharpen his state of mind.
Compared with this kind of mental torture, being physically cut into pieces is nothing. Think about how strong the will is to be beaten and scolded by worldly thugs for the Immortal Cultivators in the First Yuan Ying stage!
Lin Xuan has always been confident about his own mind, but he is not sure whether he can achieve that step.
Therefore, Lin Xuan was not prepared to use such cruel methods to train himself unless absolutely necessary.
Over the years, he has also read many ancient books, but there are very few records in this area. After all, there are only a few people who defy the heavens, and their cultivation speed is mostly at the same level as their spiritual roots. If the qualifications are good enough, even if the cultivation speed is fast, the state of mind
Can also keep up.
This is the case for Tian Xiaojian and Qin Yan, so they are also two hundred years old, not much slower than Lin Xuan, but they do not have unstable Taoist hearts.
There are only some immortal cultivators who use abnormal methods to advance, such as Lin Xuan. In the early stage, he did not even have spiritual roots. Later in the Black Moon Clan, although he took the holy fruit and condensed his spiritual roots, he still had no spiritual roots.
But above average.
It's not even as good as the alien spirit root, let alone compared with geniuses like Qin Yan or Tian Xiaojian.
However, Lin Xuan practiced faster because he was able to use the elixir as a sugar pill.
However, proper consumption of elixirs is of great benefit to one's cultivation. Taking too many pills like Lin Xuan's has caused an obvious discrepancy between one's qualifications and one's cultivation speed, but has also led to hidden dangers of unstable Taoist mind.
Of course, such cases are few and far between.
It doesn’t necessarily have to be taking magic medicine, because some other unfavorable opportunities and a sudden increase in cultivation can also cause instability in the Taoist mind.
At the same time, thousands of miles away.
A market where low-level monks gather to trade, with people coming and going.
"Everyone, come and see. Although the rotten bone grass is poison, it only needs to be refined with a few auxiliary ingredients to make a pill that can increase our spiritual level."
"This flaming knife in the hands of the poor Taoist was personally refined by the seniors in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. It blows and breaks the hair. It is extremely sharp. It also comes with fire bomb attacks. It is definitely suitable for fellow Taoists who go out to kill people, grab treasures, and seek revenge.
A sharp weapon." The cry of a young Taoist priest reached his ears, which also attracted countless onlookers. Although it is not a big deal for immortal cultivators to prey on the weak, killing people and grabbing treasures, but on the surface, after all, we still have to talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality, and this kind of private
It is very courageous to talk about the things you do here.
Meng Ruyan straightened her hair and showed a smile at the corner of her mouth. This powerful person who could make Yunzhou tremble three times by stamping his jade feet was still wearing green clothes and looked weak and pitiful.
Her cultivation has converged to the middle stage of agility, and her proud figure has been hidden using secret techniques. Her facial features are average and her skin is slightly dark.
It doesn't look noticeable at all.
This woman tidied up the small stall in front of her.
She sighed in her heart. When it comes to qualifications, although she also has the Holy Spirit root, she is still inferior to her disciples. After all, those who can successfully condense the Nascent Soul will most likely be the owners of the Holy Spirit root. It is not possible at all.
What kind of.
This kind of spiritual root can be cultivated quickly before the birth of a baby, but it will not show any advantages after the birth of a baby. There are many monks with the Holy Spirit Root who are trapped in the early stage of the Nascent Soul.
It can't even reach the middle stage of Nascent Soul, let alone the state of separation and union.
Of course, she has better qualifications than those people, but her achievements today are due to some incredible opportunities.
It is different from Lin Xuan's taking medicine, but it is also the kind of abnormal increase in cultivation level.
At the beginning, Meng Ruyan was very happy. As the number one female cultivator in Yunzhou, she did not take the world seriously. Even if there were several other old monsters who were not born, she was not afraid of anyone except Wangtinglou.
.
Even because of that opportunity, she practiced very quickly when she reached the separation and union stage. Now she is at the peak of the early stage and is only one step away from the middle stage of separation and union.
But if you can't get over it, other bottlenecks don't matter. The key is that you are not in a good mood, and even almost went wrong.
Meng Ruyan learned from the pain and read numerous ancient books, but could not find any solution, so she had to resort to stupid methods and suffer hardships.
However, looking back on the experience of the past few months, Meng Ruyan almost wanted to cry. The majestic number one female cultivator in Yunzhou once killed tens of thousands of immortal cultivators in an instant. Eight great cultivators could not hold half a cup of tea in her hands. That was
What an honor, what an honor.
But now, she has to come here to endure hardships. She, the Supreme Elder of Tianya Hai Pavilion, is being yelled at by some disciples in the Foundation Establishment Stage and even the Spiritual Movement Stage. She has to hold back when she gets angry and cannot get angry in order to improve her state of mind.
Meng Ruyan was so depressed that she almost ran away. This feeling of frustration made her willing to challenge Wangtinglou. Even if she lost, it would be better than being depressed now.
But in order to break through and live forever, we must endure it. (To be continued,)
