Perfect World: Dream Back to the Ancient Immortal World

Page 128

Even the fearless lion who had been malicious just now became amiable.

It knows that it is impossible for such a young man to have no powerful backing, and there is no benefit in offending him rashly.

Gu Wudi smiled and talked with the three holy beasts, treating them all equally without showing any favoritism, as if the targeting by the Fearless Lion just now had never happened.

Such an attitude made the Fearless Lion even more solemn. He was so cunning at such a young age. What would happen to him when he rose to power?

not simple.

After a conversation, the White Jade Dragon Elephant said, “Little Donor Gu, the reincarnation of the human world under the Samsara Pool is a great secret of our sect, which cannot be revealed to outsiders. Please keep it a secret for the ancient monk lineage. We trust you and will not erase your memory.”

Its words were light, but they carried a warning.

How could Gu Wudi not hear it?

He understood it instantly, and immediately swore on his own path in front of the three sacred beasts that he would not tell anyone else what he had seen and heard in the Samsara Pond.

This oath is bound by cause and effect, concerns Gu Wudi’s future, and naturally has credibility.

Upon seeing this, the three sacred beasts nodded with satisfaction and became even more friendly to him.

During this process, the Fearless Lion also learned that behind Gu Wudi was the Cross Yin-Yang Forbidden Land, and he immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

Because it had heard the Immortal Monk King talk about the Cross Yin-Yang Forbidden Land, and his words showed great admiration for the owner of the forbidden area. This showed that the other party was not simple and was definitely not an ordinary Immortal King.

Of course, it has no way of understanding the only thing left of the owner of the restricted area, which is his obsession. It only knows that he is mysterious and powerful.

At this time, Gu Wudi pointed to the stone mountain behind the fearless lion and asked tentatively if he could go up and gain enlightenment on the stone mountain.

The reason I ask this is because there is a clear and green sky on the stone mountain, and an old tree stands there. The rays of light are swaying, and a sacred atmosphere is rising into the sky. There is a special breath flowing, and it has strange and great power, which makes people seem to fall into a deep level of enlightenment.

If I’m not mistaken, it is the sacred object and immortal root of the ancient monks, the ancient Bodhi tree. It is so extraordinary that it can make people feel enlightened even from a long distance. It is hard to imagine what it would be like to sit cross-legged under the tree.

Just after crossing the Naihe Bridge, a ball of light wrapped him up and brought him here. Gu Wudi guessed that the ball of light came from the ancient Bodhi tree.

“Do you want to sit cross-legged under the ancient Bodhi tree and attain enlightenment?” The White Jade Dragon Elephant frowned.

“Yes, please help me, senior. I will reward you handsomely in the future.” Gu Wudi said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

As for what he said “there will be a generous reward”, the holy beast that protects the religion did not think that he was just empty talk. Just based on this point, Gu Wudi was qualified to say “the second Immortal Monk King”.

“The ancient Bodhi tree is a sacred object of our sect and should not be open to outsiders. However, you are different. Not only did you make it through the Samsara Pond, but you also have a Buddhist flower growing on your head. You have a connection with our sect.

Okay, you go up first, but remember, you can’t harm the ancient tree, you can only seek enlightenment.” The white jade dragon elephant hesitated for a while, and finally agreed.

Chapter 153 Enlightenment

Gu Wudi nodded after hearing this.

Then, under the watchful eyes of the three holy beasts that guarded the religion, he climbed up the stone mountain steps step by step, approaching the ancient tree with an extraordinary aura.

The closer he got, the stronger the feeling of enlightenment became. He felt that if he sat down cross-legged right away, he would be able to enter the state of enlightenment right away.

However, at this moment he was still far away from the ancient Bodhi tree and could not stop there no matter what.

“Buzz!”

The lush green Bodhi tree casts a halo of light, containing the grand and solemn sound of Buddhist bells, which can cleanse the distracting thoughts in people’s hearts.

Under this baptism, the many chaotic thoughts lingering in Gu Wudi’s mind immediately disappeared, and he became calm and focused.

Suddenly, his steps paused slightly, because the ancient Bodhi tree in his eyes changed, and a young monk appeared under the tree.

Handsome, ethereal, and otherworldly, with red lips, white teeth, fair skin, and deep eyes that seem to be inlaid with stars.

The young immortal monk king!

Gu Wudi recognized the identity of this young ancient monk. He was the Immortal Monk King in his youth.

His features were exactly the same as those of the Immortal Monk Wang that he had met at the Wang family that year.

The three holy beasts that guarded the religion in the back also saw this scene, and all of them showed expressions of surprise.

“That was… the scene when the Immortal Monk King attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree before he became king.

Why did it manifest at this time?

We have been guarding this ancient tree for countless years and have never seen such a wonder. It appeared as soon as the young donor Gu arrived. Is there any deep meaning behind this?

Could it be that the ancient Bodhi tree sensed something and was foreshadowing something?” Bai Yulongxiang said in surprise.

Thinking of the immortal monk Wuzhen’s description of Gu Wudi, it felt more and more that Gu Wudi’s future was limitless. Throughout the ages, the creatures who opened up the system were all people with great perseverance. As long as they did not die young, their future achievements would surely be amazing.

“The ancient donor was just captured by the Bodhi light. Perhaps the ancient tree sensed something at that time.” The fearless lion whispered with a solemn look in his eyes.

Today, it seems to have offended a prominent figure.

Gu Wudi stopped and looked at the young immortal monk king who was attaining enlightenment under the tree in front of him. He closed his eyes slightly and was enveloped by the light flowing from the ancient Bodhi tree. Buddhist flowers bloomed around him one after another, flying and dancing, looking extremely sacred.

Afterwards, the sound of Buddhist scriptures came from the distant ancient times to the present world, murmuring endlessly, carrying a grand Buddhist meaning, profound and complex, making people unable to help but stop and listen.

In the sound of scriptures, Gu Wudi saw the grand vision of the Immortal Monk King, the endless Buddhist kingdom, which spread throughout the ancient, present and future. Countless Buddhists chanted scriptures in unison, and their voices penetrated the long river of time.

Afterwards, the heavenly punishment descended and slammed towards the young Immortal Monk King. All the calamities, past and present, emerged and tortured this creature together.

This is the calamity of the Immortal King.

Sure enough, the Immortal Monk King attained enlightenment under the ancient Bodhi tree and completed the last journey before the threshold of the Immortal King.

This creature is really powerful. He has cultivated a golden body of 100 feet tall. Even when facing the terrifying calamity of the Immortal King, he can survive.

In the end, the Immortal Monk King survived the calamity and turned into a true Immortal King.

The next moment, the scene became blurry and disappeared.

Gu Wudi stood there in a daze for a while, then continued to move forward and came to the ancient Bodhi tree, where he sat cross-legged where the young Immortal Monk King had sat cross-legged in the past.

At this time, after being baptized by the sound of the Buddhist bell again and again, his mind was already free of distracting thoughts. As soon as he sat down, he fell into a state of enlightenment.

The ancient Bodhi tree shook, scattering patches of green clouds that fell on Gu Wudi, giving him an opportunity.

In the void, a Buddhist flower emerged, absorbing the green clouds and releasing brilliant Buddhist light.

Gu Wudi closed his eyes slightly and swam in the ocean of Tao. He examined himself and deduced the various aspects of the Qi Refining system.

Under normal circumstances, this process would be extremely difficult and would require a lot of time and energy.

But now, with the blessing of the ancient Bodhi tree, Gu Wudi is in a special state, and his understanding of Tao is beyond imagination.

The first breath enters the seed, the first breath, the second breath…

The realms that he had previously cultivated reappeared in his mind. Some overlooked details were infinitely magnified at this moment, making Gu Wudi realize his own shortcomings.

He was intoxicated, immersed in this process of checking for omissions and filling in the gaps, constantly perfecting his own method, and even deduced backwards, such as the third immortal energy, the six reincarnations, the five qi returning to the origin, the four images of the gods, the three flowers gathering at the top of the head, etc. in the process of refining qi into spirit, as well as the refining emptiness, the true self, and the escape into one in the process of refining spirit into emptiness, and the integration of the way in the process of refining emptiness into the way…

The entire system has been carefully evolved, and all the details, possible difficulties and shackles, etc. are presented in Gu Wudi’s eyes.

If the system previously derived in the Cross Yin-Yang Forbidden Zone was a rough draft, then now, this rough draft is gradually fading away the rough parts and leaving the essence.

This was a huge help to Gu Wudi. It was like paving the way for him in advance, so he could just walk on it directly, saving himself countless hours of hard training and taking countless detours.

Later, the Buddhist flower above Gu Wudi’s head reached saturation and fell off directly, turning into rain of light above his skull, which floated into his body and into every particle of ancient seeds.

“Buzz!”

At this moment, Gu Wudi’s whole body was emitting a hazy precious light. His whole appearance was solemn and majestic, and all the particles of ancient seeds were rumbling and vibrating.

The light became increasingly brighter and brighter, so dazzling that it was difficult to look directly at, and it also contained a kind of Buddhist meaning.

The three holy beasts that protect the religion watched all this in amazement.

If ordinary creatures want to cultivate Buddhahood in their bodies, they must at least recite Buddhist scriptures for more than ten years and accumulate it bit by bit.

But now, Gu Wudi, a foreign creature who had never recited Buddhist scriptures, had a strong Buddhist spirit in his body, just like a great monk. This was really incredible.

What was even more astonishing was the kind of radiance emanating from him, holy and ethereal, as if something astonishing was about to emerge.

“Is this the new system?” The White Jade Dragon Elephant opened its eyes wide, watching the strands of white “silk threads” floating out from all over Gu Wudi’s body, making it look like his entire body was steaming.

In the end, all the “threads” gathered together to form a brilliant breath.

“The third immortal energy!”

The blue and gold mink gasped.

They witnessed with their own eyes a creature who, without relying on the perfect ancient species, used his own body as a seed and relied on his own potential to cultivate three streams of immortal energy.

Looking at the primitive ancient world, there are quite a few creatures who have cultivated the three kinds of immortal energy. However, many of them are not worthy of the name and seem to rely on external forces, such as help from elders, etc. Only a very small number of them have cultivated it by their own strength.

The three strands of immortal energy of the former naturally contain some water, and in the later stages of cultivation, their disadvantages will gradually become apparent. Only the latter can be considered “real gold”, and can make rapid progress and soar straight up.

Now, Gu Wudi has become a piece of “real gold” and has entered the ranks of the three immortal spirits.

However, the time when his three immortal auras and the three immortal auras in the Dao Seed Method appeared were not the same. They were earlier. There was no way around it. The systems were different and the realms were also different.

The formation of the third immortal energy meant that Gu Wudi’s realm had reached the fourth level of Qi Refining, the last small realm of refining essence into Qi.

However, his breakthrough was far from over, and the Bodhi tree was still releasing green light, maintaining Gu Wudi’s deep state of enlightenment.

In this state, his cultivation grew rapidly. The tiny particles of ancient seeds all over his body continuously emitted a halo of light. He was tempered again and again, and then merged into the third immortal energy, allowing it to thrive at a speed visible to the naked eye.

When the third stream of immortal energy reached the level of the first two streams of immortal energy, the refining of essence into energy was completely perfected. A total of three streams of immortal energy revolved around Gu Wudi’s body, making him look like a young immortal king.

In the eyes of the three true immortal-level holy beasts, the white jade dragon elephant, the blue gold sable, and the fearless lion, the figures of Gu Wudi and the young immortal monk king overlapped at the same time, as if the supreme genius of the past had reappeared.

Afterwards, the three holy beasts shook their heads. Although this was an illusion, they all believed that if nothing unexpected happened, Gu Wudi would become an immortal king in the future.

At this time, Gu Wudi, who had reached a perfect state, woke up and came out of that deep state of enlightenment. He opened his eyes, and a brilliant light shot out, and then he returned to calm in an instant, as if nothing had happened.

Realizing that he had made great progress in Taoism and had already reached the fourth level of Qi Refining, and was only a stone’s throw away from Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation, he couldn’t help but feel happy.

This trip to the ancient monk’s ancestral land was indeed a wise move, and the gains were huge and immeasurable.

If he had not boarded the immortal monk Wuzhen’s ship, but chose to sail in the Lost Sea by himself, no one would know where he would be now. It is very likely that he would still be at the third level of Qi Refining.

Gu Wudi stood up, stretched his body, tried the magical effects of the three immortal auras, and then bowed deeply to the ancient Bodhi tree in front of him.

The gains from this enlightenment are not only reflected in the improvement of his realm, but also in the evolution and sublimation of the system. Only if the rough system evolves can his future path be smooth, otherwise, many problems will arise.

All of this is thanks to the opportunity granted by the ancient Bodhi tree, otherwise, I don’t know how many hardships I would have to go through.

The ancient Bodhi tree swayed gently, shedding its light, and transmitted a message to him: “Every sip and every bite is destined. Today I will help you realize the truth, and tomorrow you will help me escape from the sea of ​​suffering.”

Its words were very profound, involving cause and effect as well as a vague future in the dark. As a congenital spiritual root, its spiritual perception was quite sharp, as if it knew that it would face a disaster in the future.

Gu Wudi was shocked when he heard this.
