Perfect World: Dream Back to the Ancient Immortal World
Page 129
According to the development of history, the ancient Bodhi tree will indeed suffer a disaster and become a blood Bodhi, and fall into the devil’s grip from then on.
“it is good.”
He nodded solemnly.
No matter who deliberately watered the ancient Bodhi tree with blood, causing it to turn into a blood Bodhi tree, Gu Wudi would not turn a blind eye and would definitely repay this cause and effect.
Walking out from under the ancient Bodhi tree, Gu Wudi was praised by the three holy beasts that protected the religion, and they were generous with their words of praise.
“It’s amazing! The Buddha nature in Gu Shizhu’s body is even stronger than when I chanted Buddhist scriptures for a hundred years. It’s unfair that one day is equivalent to a hundred years of my hard practice.” The Fearless Lion sighed.
“It’s difficult for you to cultivate Buddha nature because of your own fault. However, the talent of Gu Benefactor in the path of Buddhism is indeed very rare. It feels like you have achieved great enlightenment and become a Buddha right away.
I wonder if you are willing to convert to Buddhism and practice the supreme Dharma? I promise that if you join my religion, you will enjoy the same treatment as the Immortal Monk King when he was young, and my ancient monk lineage will do its best to train you. “Bai Yu Long Xiang asked tentatively.
It would be a pity to miss such a good talent.
Imagine what the scene will be like when Gu Wudi becomes king in the future and leads the ancient monk lineage together with the Immortal Monk King.
At that time, the ancient monk lineage will have two immortal kings in charge, and it will be extremely powerful and enter a new era of glory.
However, Gu Wudi gave a negative answer. He shook his head and said that he already had a master and would not change jobs.
Bai Yulongxiang and others were a little disappointed for a moment, but they adjusted themselves soon and continued to talk to Gu Wudi in a friendly manner.
“By the way, after I dived into the Samsara Pool, I haven’t come up yet. Fellow Daoist Kongjue and the others must have thought that something happened to me at the bottom of the pool. Three seniors, I have to hurry back immediately to avoid making them worry.” Gu Wudi said anxiously.
“Okay, go ahead.
You have a Buddhist constitution, it would be a pity if you don’t practice Buddhism. Whenever you want to convert to Buddhism, you can come here at any time. The door of the ancient monk lineage will always be open to you. “The white jade dragon elephant was still unwilling and said this.
Gu Wudi nodded on the surface, but he was shaking his head wildly in his heart. He didn’t want to become a monk.
Moreover, one does not have to join the ancient monk lineage to practice Buddhism. The relics left by Pu Yu are filled with Buddhist scriptures. He can practice them all, but he cannot easily reveal them in front of the creatures of the ancient monk lineage.
At present, he has mastered the Eight Styles of Scattering Buddha, the most powerful magical power of the War Buddha lineage. Later, after he has subdued the relic, he will study other Buddhist scriptures in the space.
After bidding farewell to the three sacred beasts that protected the religion, Gu Wudi walked out of this ancient monk’s important place.
Along the way, many ancient monks looked at Gu Wudi in surprise, but no one stepped forward to stop them and ask them. It seemed that the White Jade Dragon Elephant must have secretly told them something.
The rest of the journey went smoothly. He came to the stone mountain again and walked up the ancient stone steps step by step to the top of the mountain.
At this time, Kong Jue and others had already become as anxious as ants on a hot pan, with beads of sweat the size of beans dripping down their foreheads.
Gu Wudi has not appeared since he dived into the Samsara Pool. They have waited for a long time and felt that something was wrong. Even Master Lekong, who had great confidence in Gu Wudi, began to doubt whether he had died at the bottom of the pool.
So, a monk who was good at chanting Buddhist scriptures entered the reincarnation pool to look for Gu Wudi. As a result, he searched every corner but didn’t see even a hair.
When he informed the people on the shore of this result, Kongjue and several young monks felt as if they had been struck by a bolt from the blue. The whole world went dark. An important guest had died in the samsara pond. How should they explain this?
Just then, Gu Wudi came over and greeted everyone.
“My fellow Taoists, how are you?”

Hearing the familiar voice, the monks were stunned at first, then overjoyed, and their eyes scanned Gu Wudi again and again. While they were happy, many doubts arose in their hearts.
They saw with their own eyes Gu Wudi dive into the Samsara Pond and never come out. How come he came down the mountain now?
“Master Gu…are you okay?”
Kong Jue came over and asked with concern.
“Don’t worry, Brother Kongjue, I’m fine.” Gu Wudi responded.
“Mr. Gu, didn’t you go to the Samsara Pond? How come…” He pointed at the Samsara Pond which was filled with rosy glow, and then pointed to the stone steps leading to the top of the stone mountain, and asked with a look of doubt and surprise on his face.
This is all too unbelievable.
Only Luo Kong looked thoughtful, as if he had thought of something.
“I’m sorry, Fellow Daoist Kongjue, this matter involves certain taboos. I have sworn an oath in front of the three holy beasts that protect your religion. I cannot tell a second person. Even if you are the descendant of the ancient monk, I cannot tell you.” Gu Wudi said helplessly.
Kong Jue understood what was said and stopped asking further questions.
“Okay, as long as Donor Gu is okay.”
He nodded.
Afterwards, he glanced at Gu Wudi and discovered unexpectedly that he seemed to have undergone some kind of all-round transformation. He was completely different, reborn.
“Is it because of the Eighteen Beats of the Ancient Buddha?” Kong Jue murmured to himself, feeling that Gu Wudi was unfathomable.
“This kid is incredible. He is truly the second Immortal Monk King.” Lekong sighed in his heart. Witnessing a miracle with his own eyes made him quite emotional. The only pity was that such a talented person already had a master.
The supreme monk and others nearby naturally noticed the transformation in Gu Wudi. They were all marveling at his incredible ability. It was truly horrifying that he could emerge alive after being in the Samsara Pool for such a long time.
If Gu Wudi had not hidden the Buddha’s spirit in his body into the ancient seeds, these ancient monks would probably be even more shocked. They had painstakingly chanted Buddhist scriptures for hundreds of years before they accumulated such a rich Buddha’s spirit in their bodies that they could be called eminent monks.
It only took Gu Wudi a short while to join the ranks of enlightened monks. It was rare in ancient times for him to possess such a strong Buddhist spirit at such an age. Usually, only monks who were reincarnated from their past wisdom could do so.
After everyone skipped the topic of the bottom of the reincarnation pool, the atmosphere became lively again.
Whether he was following Master Kong, the Supreme Monk, or the young novice monk, Gu Wudi could always chat with them.
When the atmosphere became harmonious, Gu Wudi asked them about “Pu Yu”.
“Puyu?”
Hearing this Buddha name, Liao Kong was surprised and replied solemnly: “The Pu generation, those are all Buddha names from a very long time ago.
How long ago was it exactly? Let me tell you this, in that era, the Immortal Monk King had not yet been born.”
Gu Wudi was slightly surprised when he heard this. He didn’t expect that the owner of the golden relic was so ancient.
“Pu Yu was a leader among the ancient monks of the Pu generation. Although he was not an Immortal King, he was also one of the most virtuous predecessors in the realm of True Immortals. But later, he disappeared and his whereabouts are unknown.
Boy, why do you ask this?” Lekong asked with bright eyes.
“Oh, I have seen this name in an ancient book in the restricted area. It looks like a Buddhist name, so I asked out of curiosity.” Gu Wudi answered casually.
“I see.”
Lekong nodded, but there was a gleam in his eyes, and it was unclear whether he really believed what Gu Wudi said.
After a conversation, Kongjue and a few young monks took Gu Wudi to bid farewell to the monks on the top of the stone mountain, and then went down the stone steps.
When they returned to the ancient temple, the immortal monk Wuzhen had been waiting there for a long time.
“Kongjue, where did you go?” Wuzhen asked softly.
Upon hearing this, several young monks became nervous and lowered their heads, not daring to breathe.
Kong Jue was calm. He knew that as long as Gu Wudi was fine, there would be no big problem.
“We took the initiative to take the ancient invincible donor to the reincarnation pond. We were almost in danger. Please punish us, ancestor.”
“Humph, you also know you are wrong. You have been chanting Buddhist scriptures for several years, but you are still so naughty. If something happens to Little Donor Gu in the Samsara Pond, how can I explain to the owner of the restricted area?”
“Please punish us, Master.” Several young monks spoke up quickly.
At this time, Gu Wudi also spoke.
“Master Wuzhen, it’s none of their business. I took the initiative to inquire about the Samsara Pond and wanted to see it for myself.”
Facing Gu Wudi, Wu Zhen was obviously more polite than before, and it was obvious that he had learned something from the mouths of the three sacred beasts that protected the religion.
“Considering your young age and the donor Gu also pleading for you, let’s let this matter go and it won’t happen again.” Wuzhen waved his hand and stopped blaming the young monks.
Kongjue and several young monks were overjoyed when they heard this.
Later, Wuzhen took them out, leaving Gu Wudi with independent space.
He knew that Gu Wudi had just made a breakthrough and now needed time to consolidate his achievements.
In the huge ancient Buddhist and Taoist temple, Gu Wudi was the only one left, sitting cross-legged on the cushion, quietly recalling what he had gained under the Bodhi tree.
The rough version of the system has already shed its rough parts, leaving only the essence. Future practice only requires following the steps and moving forward on the path of deduction.
After the great perfection of refining essence into qi, the next step is to refine qi into spirit.
To reach this state, the three strands of immortal energy must undergo a qualitative transformation, giving rise to immortal flowers that gather on top of the head and then blossom and bear fruit.
If you want to cultivate to the point where the Three Flowers Gather at the Top of the Head, you must mobilize the special energy throughout your body, refine it into immortal energy, and nourish them.
For example, the five internal organs have five energies, the five energies converge to the origin, the six bowels have reincarnation, the four poles give birth to four images, the four images transform into spirits, there is purple energy in the Purple Palace, and the purple energy comes from the east.
These special energies can be refined into “spirit” and integrated into the immortal energy to become a spirit.
There is no order of priority among these realms; it doesn’t matter which one you cultivate first.
When Gu Wudi was in dire straits at the bottom of the reincarnation pool, he awakened the potential in his five internal organs, and something was brewing.
Now it is clear that they are the five energies. Once they are conceived and born into the world, they will be refined into the immortal energy and the “spirit” within them will be transformed. This is the state of the Five Qis Returning to Origin.
As for other special energies, there is no clue yet, so Gu Wudi decided to practice the Five Qis Converging to Origin first.
However, from refining essence into qi to refining qi into spirit, this is a qualitative transformation, and it is very likely to bring about an extremely terrible punishment from heaven.
Gu Wudi needs to prepare in advance.
Because this is creating a new law, taking an unprecedented new system, it is taboo and will be punished by heaven. It would not be surprising even if it attracts the immortal guillotine of Gu Wudi.
He pondered for a moment, then fell into enlightenment, focusing all his energy on the five internal organs, striving to make the five energies within them manifest as quickly as possible.
……
Fairyland, in a remote universe, on a vibrant green star.
Wu Zhong slowly descended with Wang Heng and Hei Wang. They did not alarm the native creatures on the stars and concealed their tracks with their great magic power.
With the presence of the giant Wuzhong, everything became simple. He could tell at a glance if there were any traces of the Immortal King left on the ancient star. Even if the traces had been eroded by time, they were still as conspicuous to Wuzhong as a candle in the dark night.
They arrived at a cave buried deep underground. Due to its age, all traces of the Immortal King had faded and were almost wiped out into dust.
“Time is so cruel that even the traces left by the Immortal King will be wiped out. I wonder where we will be after countless years? Will we continue to live in this world, or have fallen without a trace?” The Black King sighed.
Wu Zhong didn’t say anything, just stared at some traces, motionless, with the power of time surging in his eyes, as if he was exploring the past.
The Black King and Wang Heng’s magic power is too low to explore the secrets here, so they can only follow the Immortal King Wuzhong and walk through every corner of the cave little by little.
After a long time, Wu Zhong sighed and said, “This is a very ancient Immortal King, dating back to the time when the Emperor fell. If I’m not mistaken, he has been to that strange place, and became one of the few creatures lucky enough to enter it.
Before he died, he left behind a few words, revealing some of the mysteries of that place. If someone practices the way of time and space, or the way of reincarnation, and enters this strange place, they may be able to witness the reincarnation of the living, reverse the past and the present, and have an extra extraordinary period of time. “
