Becoming a god starts from planting a Bodhi tree.
Chapter 321 From Today On, I Am the Supreme Buddha
Chapter 321 From Today On, I Am the Supreme Buddha
[If I can attain Bodhi, when the end of the world comes, my light will shine upon the three thousand worlds of Jambu, the past, the future, and the birth and death of the epochs!]
[If I can attain Bodhi, with my infinite wisdom, I will enable all sentient beings to obtain endless things to enjoy, and not let any living being lack anything!]
[If I can attain Bodhi, I will defeat all the evil demons of the heterodox sects and cut off all the karmic obstacles of past lives! ]
[If I attain Bodhi, I will not save sentient beings, save the last days, or seek the future…]
The grand and solemn voice echoed across heaven and earth. Between heaven and earth, the Buddha’s light was vast, golden lotus emerged from the ground, and the glazed golden light spread like water waves, washing over the current devil’s land.
Including Ji Jingqiu, Huang Fuxing, and even the believers from all realms involved in this supreme Buddhist country, seemed to have sensed something in their hearts, and they all sat cross-legged, chanting the Buddha’s name in a low voice, and listening to the great vows.
【Muheshan?! 】
Ji Jingqiu could vaguely hear Wu Zhou’s cold scolding in his ears.
But it doesn’t matter anymore.
He could even hear Hela’s low moan.
And the gentle and soft words from those in front of him explained to him the true method of the reward body of the Buddha’s lineage.
“The closer one is to sentient beings, the more he or she will enjoy the fruit of the retribution. However, the price is that one is limited by his or her great aspiration and cannot go against it.”
“We, the Buddha’s lineage, have always liked to confuse the effect with the cause. The law of retribution also emphasizes that the effect comes before the cause. You should have heard of this saying, ‘If you want to save sentient beings, you should be saved by sentient beings.'”
“That’s why our path has higher requirements in some aspects than other paths. Fortunately, my father has paved the way for future generations like me, just like…”
Mu Heshan paused, “It’s like we have accumulated a good reputation for our lineage, so the great way of heaven and earth, and even the will of the universe, will be more willing to get close to and trust us.”
Ji Jingqiu looked serious. This so-called accumulating credibility refers to the fact that Mu Shuai had supported all living beings in the sea of suffering in the past?
He probably understood the true meaning of Brother Mu’s words. The method of the Buddha’s lineage of rewarding the body emphasizes obtaining the fruit first and then paying the reward, which is a bit similar to…
Enjoy first, pay later.
“But even for us, we need someone to lead the way, or be in the right place at the right time.”
“Anyone can make a great wish, but not everyone can bear the consequences, and not everyone can get a response from heaven and earth, or a reward from the great way.”
“Only at special times can one receive the will of heaven and the response of the great way of heaven and earth. For example, in the current chaotic world of heavenly demons, even if the will of the universe descends, it will first eliminate the heavenly demons.”
present.
The two didn’t know where they were walking. They only saw a thick fog ahead, as if it led to the wilderness.
“Senior, are you using yourself as bait to lure our Zhou to come, and then guide their layout to create conditions for the younger generation?” Ji Jingqiu asked, looking sideways.
The middle-aged man standing beside him murmured:
“Wu Zhou? So his name is Wu Zhou?”
The man suddenly smiled and said, “Just call me Senior Brother. You are my father’s disciple of a different generation, so you are naturally of the same generation as me. I’m sorry to make you laugh, Junior Brother Ji. You have been fighting this guy for hundreds of years, but you haven’t even figured out his name.”
Ji Jingqiu shook his head. He also benefited from Hela’s help.
Mu Heshan suddenly tilted his ears to listen to a certain angry curse outside, and then laughed:
“In the rare moments when I do, I still really like the path that Wu Zhou has taken. He has transformed into many different forms, but his ‘humanity’ is the strongest.”
“If it were someone else today, even if they suffered a huge loss and were insulted in every way, they would never be so angry and lose their composure. It really makes me happy!”
He was full of energy and looked at Ji Jingqiu with a smile:
“Junior brother, how do you feel about meeting me today?”
“Shifang is a difficult problem.” Ji Jingqiu frowned and said calmly, “I can only say that he is worthy of being a demon. Even though I had some guesses before coming here, I still fell into the situation he planned in the end and faced a dilemma.”
“If I don’t take action today, is there a way to take him down, or to leave safely?”
“This is the universe.” Ji Jingqiu said calmly, “Even if Wu Zhou can use this geographical advantage to temporarily exert the power of a Heavenly King, I am confident that I can leave safely with the help of the Bodhi tree, but I may not be able to save Master and Apprentice Huang Fuxing.”
Mu Heshan had a smile on his face:
“It’s already good. In fact, it’s nothing to lose to him. This guy has lived for who knows how many years. It may be even longer than our universe. Compared to him, you and I are just ants.”
“I, your senior brother, faced him for hundreds of years, with 327 losses and 9 wins. Of course, I won another game today.”
Having said that, Mu Heshan laughed again, his laughter full of joy.
“Of course I knew that the battles with Him over the years were not without damage, so I deliberately left behind the spiritual core. I originally intended to use it as a ‘backup’ for the Federation, but I didn’t expect that it would be pushed to the throne by later disciples.”
“When I woke up from the throne and heard the new name of the Four Demons as ‘Buddha’ for the first time, I guessed that this beast was most likely a celestial demon. Whether it was a clone or the real body, it didn’t matter.”
“I knew He would not forget me as a chess piece, and I had been looking for a way to break the situation until you, Junior Brother, showed up and gave me the best solution.”
“You, Junior Brother, have also contributed to this. If you had come three years later… no, just one year later, the current situation might have been overturned.”
Mu Heshan sighed softly, “Wu Zhou’s methods go straight to the root. I can’t resist. I can only hold on.”
“In addition, your Heart Lamp Seed is also very important. It contains extremely high essence, and its effect is far more than just allowing me to continue my current state for a little longer.”
“He said before that you shouldn’t let the Bodhi tree absorb the faith and vows here. When you see him again in the future, remember to tell him on my behalf that he shouldn’t let me accept the seeds of your heart lamp.”
Ji Jingqiu burst out laughing. It turned out that this Senior Brother Mu was a generous and free-spirited person, and also a bit vindictive.
“Reward body… is actually very troublesome. One’s words and deeds must all be consistent with one’s aspirations, until they become infinitely similar and eventually replace the Great Dao. If one violates this during the process, one will lose the ‘reward’ and fall.”
Mu Heshan shook his head and got the topic back on track.
“This is not a free road.”
“But fortunately, Junior Brother, you are practicing the [Visualization Diagram of the Buddha’s Prison in the Fire House].”
“Junior brother, I want you to become a god.”
Ji Jingqiu looked at it in amazement.
Mu Heshan looked frank:
“After I leave, the Supreme Buddha will lose its core of existence. After you cultivate the method of reward body, you can take its place. With this Buddhist kingdom as the foundation, you can let your reward body ‘ascend to heaven in one step’. With the [Visualization Diagram of the Buddha’s Hell in Fire House], you don’t have to worry about ‘lack of freedom’ in the future.”
“In addition, your bodhi tree will also use the great power of faith and aspiration here to complete an important transformation and open up a true pure land of emptiness, which can evolve into the prototype of the Dharma Realm in the future.”
“The accumulation here can save you countless time. This is the great gift I told you about.”
Ji Jingqiu was silent for a long time, then said, “Brother, are you leaving?”
Mu Heshan laughed and said, “I have been dead for a long time. Now I am just returning to dust and returning to where I should go. It is not in vain that I can meet my junior brother, pave some roads for him, and even plot against Wu Zhou after my death.”
The two walked a long way along the wilderness, and Ji Jingqiu didn’t know where this road led to.
“Junior brother, you were born in the Federation, which is both lucky and unfortunate, especially since you have inherited the karma of Uncle He and your father. The further you go, the more difficult it will be, and the less we can help you, until it is almost nothing.”
“Perhaps after this time, the next time you see Wu Zhou, you will have to rely entirely on yourself.”
“Don’t worry, brother. I’m ready.”
“That’s good. After your reward body ascends to heaven, you will have some ability to protect yourself in the future. I’ll send you here. From now on, the Supreme True Buddha Sect will be handed over to you, and this Buddhist kingdom will also be handed over to you as an inheritance.”
“What a pity, I still didn’t last long enough to see the day when you seniors acted willfully again.”
Mu Heshan murmured, and suddenly stopped, full of regret. He turned back to look at Ji Jingqiu, smiled, a little envious, and a little reluctant, and said,
“Junior brother, you are very lucky, and this generation of federal citizens are very lucky, because you will witness what it means to be ‘high-spirited’…” Without waiting for Ji Jingqiu to ask him if he knew any inside information, Mu Heshan left casually.
He walked away, into the wilderness in a glow. His mind clearly recalled his father holding his hand as he walked along a long road when he was a child. He said that after every long period of spiritual darkness that enveloped the world, a person like this would be born.
Through his own efforts, he will rediscover the forgotten path to awakening, free himself forever from the long cycle of reincarnation, and then lift up everyone.
【Father, is that you? 】
[No, it’s every one of us. ]
At the end of the wilderness, he looked up.
The glow came into his eyes.
He is Mu Heshan, the second son of the Mu family.
……
Four guardian stars.
In the temple of the Four Gods.
The four who revealed their true appearances and no longer appeared without a form woke up at the same time, sensing the departure of a junior, and…
Waves beneath the sea of suffering.
Qin Tianfeng said to himself: “We have been following the will of heaven all our lives and filling the gaps in heaven, not just to wrong ourselves and future generations. We have been talking about reason all our lives, and it doesn’t matter if we are unreasonable once or twice?”
Yang Qingshan nodded and said, “It’s a pity that Donghuang is not here today.”
Just at this time.
A slight sigh was heard.
The four of them smiled lightly and ended this brief awakening at the same time.
Below the Abyss, the attacks of those people became more and more fierce, and it was obvious that they didn’t want them to take care of the rear.
……
The supreme Buddhist kingdom.
The body of the Buddha that I manifested is on the verge of collapse at this moment.
He tried to leave this place, but this devil land that was supposed to be transformed by him was turned into a pure land of Buddhism again under the washing of endless lapis lazuli golden light!
Even the many believers he promoted based on the Buddhist land, all turned against him at this time! They became true believers of the Supreme Buddha!
Wu Zhou could even sense the cold will hanging high outside this Buddhist kingdom.
That is the will of the universe!
This damn Mu Heshan, who guided Ji Jingqiu to verify the method of reward body, not only attracted the favor of the Dharma Realm, but also brought down the will of the universe!
Everything here is beyond His control.
Suddenly, there was a loud Buddhist sound between heaven and earth, solemn and magnificent.
[If I attain Bodhi, I will not save sentient beings, save the last days, or seek the future…]
Wu Zhou’s expression suddenly darkened.
Under the burning of the glazed flame, the body of the Supreme Buddha dissipated, leaving only a relic in its place.
That time, Ji Jingqiu sat cross-legged, and a long-lasting Zen spirit gradually emanated from his body, triggering the wonderful Taoist rules between heaven and earth. He was just like Mu Heshan before, reciting his great aspirations!
In an instant, lotus flowers bloomed from the void, spreading all over the void, rolling up thousands of piles of snow and surrounding him.
Flowers bloom on the Bodhi tree, golden lotus emerges from the ground, and behind him there is a Bodhi tree swaying, rooted in the Buddha’s land.
At this moment, Wu Zhou could only sit and watch as the Bodhi tree madly absorbed the power of faith and vows that originally belonged to it.
As his great aspirations resounded throughout heaven and earth, the great Dao of heaven and earth favored him. A stream of clear air rose into the sky above Ji Jingqiu’s head and transformed him into the body of a Buddha.
[One Qi becomes Three Pure Ones]!
At this moment, Ji Jingqiu combined the method of reward body with [One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones] and successfully cut out a reward body!
The body of the Buddha is like glass, clear inside and out. Behind his head is a round and pure Buddha light. Under his seat rises a blue lotus platform that is not stained by dust.
When He appeared, He was already sitting in cross-legged position, with the relics integrated into His body. He slowly opened His golden eyes, pointed one hand to the sky and the other to the ground. His figure was infinitely tall, filling every corner, as if the place He was in was the supreme kingdom of God, and His eyes were full of great compassion and purity.
His voice is like thunder, majestic and compassionate:
“The sea of suffering is boundless, but when you turn around, you will find the shore!”
It was as if I was struck by lightning. This Buddhist kingdom that originally belonged to him began to press in from all directions, suppressing him to the bottom!
His expression was cold, and he was still trying to escape.
But with the second increasingly majestic wake-up call, even Wu Zhou couldn’t help but be shaken at this moment.
“The sea of suffering is endless, turn back now! Wu Zhou, why don’t you surrender!”
Ji Jingqiu used his body to control this world. He froze Wu Zhou’s actions at the first moment, making it impossible for him to die even if he wanted to.
The next moment, a huge golden hand dropped from the sky and took Wu Zhou into its palm.
Palm of Tathagata, [Possa World]!
The situation was completely different from before. Ji Jingqiu took Wu Zhou into his inner world in the blink of an eye!
Looking at the other “brother” in the inner world, both Wu Zhou were a little dazed.
Especially Xiao Wuzhou, staring blankly at another self.
He may have really overestimated Ji Jingqiu and Mu Shitian, but the only person he underestimated was Mu Heshan.
A guy who even the Heavenly Lord had never set foot on in the past, actually caused His originally perfect plan to fail completely, and was even tricked by Him. It was really… a great ability!
Wu Zhou’s expression was grim. He had not lost yet. This was Ji Jingqiu’s inner world. He still had room for a comeback.
But soon, Wu Zhou saw another “self” and couldn’t help but frowned. Where did Ji Jingqiu get the second clone?
Within the Federation, He has only infiltrated this current clone.
But Hela did not give them the chance to be dazed and swept them all out of the Pure Land with her tail.
In an instant, under the pouring blood rain, the expressions of the two guys changed drastically.
“The water of the sea of suffering in all the worlds?!”
Wu Zhou’s face was filled with horror, as he finally understood Ji Jingqiu’s “good intention” in inviting him to enter the inner world.
……
While Hela was busy dealing with Erwu.
Ji Jingqiu is still developing and adapting to his retribution body.
As the Bodhi tree took root in the Buddha’s land and absorbed endless power and grew wildly, and in the blink of an eye it was almost towering, Ji Jingqiu inherited all ownership of this world!
A golden statue of Buddha sits in the center of this world, with countless faiths, wishes and destinies added to it, and then it ascends to heaven in one step!
He spoke solemnly and announced to the believers in all realms:
“From today on, I am the Supreme Buddha.”
