Chapter 114 It's over, it's over, we can't keep this dog!

"The Buddha is the one who has attained great enlightenment, who possesses boundless compassion and universal empathy."

"All forms are illusory; if one sees all forms as non-forms, then one sees the Tathagata."

……

Inside the main hall, everyone was listening to the Dharma, but Su Bai looked completely bewildered.

At this moment, the Bodhisattva also became engrossed in preaching, while Su Bai, on the other hand, listened to the Tathagata's teachings with one ear, and then these teachings escaped from the other ear.

As the Buddha spoke, he scanned the crowd, but when his gaze fell upon Su Bai, who was wandering around the hall, his words paused slightly.

Fortunately, this mental breakdown only lasted for the time it takes to breathe, and no one noticed it.

But as Su Bai began to climb up the two dragon pillars, Tathagata's hand, which was in the Dharma mudra, involuntarily began to exert force.

The tone of the statement also changed slightly.

……

In fact, Su Bai was just curious.

This was his first time visiting Lingshan.

When he first heard the name "Lingshan," he thought it would be similar to Mount Sumeru in the Void Land.

But upon arriving here, I realized that this place was actually a huge palace.

This palace, however, is a completely different world. Although it is a palace, its interior is surprisingly large, seemingly capable of containing the entire world.

Inside the hall are several dragon-carved pillars, which are so tall that you can't even see the end of them when you look up.

The reason Su Bai wanted to climb up was actually to see where the roof was.

After all, it's a cat; curiosity is in its nature.

Besides, he's a cat. What's wrong with a cat climbing a tree?

Halfway up the mountain, Su Bai landed right at the dragon's eye on the stone pillar. He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he vaguely felt that the dragon on the stone pillar seemed to be staring at him.

After hesitating for a moment, Su Bai raised its paw and suddenly scooped it out.

Although this did not cause any damage to the stone dragon on the pillar, Su Bai clearly saw the stone dragon's eyes blink.

Su Bai was immediately excited. Without saying a word, he grabbed the small sword and tried to pry off the longan.

Last time, Master said he wanted to eat dragon liver and phoenix marrow.

Clearly, this stone dragon is alive.

Although the location of the dragon's liver is unknown, digging up a single longan would surely be enough.

Just as I was about to dig, I suddenly heard a soft bark from below.

Su Bai looked down and saw the Celestial Hound below, staring intently at him.

He frowned slightly and waved to the dog.

The Celestial Dog frowned. What was that silly cat doing?

This is not the Heavenly Court, nor is it the True Lord's Temple. His actions are a disgrace to the Xuanmen disciples and even more so to the Heavenly Court.

His master, Yang Jian, was the Erlang Shen Zhenjun of the Heavenly Court and a disciple of the Xuanmen sect. If this cat lost his reputation, wouldn't that be the same as Yang Jian losing his reputation?

The dog pondered for a moment, then looked around and, seeing that no one was paying attention to him, flew through the clouds and arrived in front of Su Bai.

"Woof woof..."

"Silly dog, stop barking. See these longans? We'll each take one. You keep watch, and I'll do the work. If we cooperate well, we'll have plenty of opportunities to work together in the future."

Upon hearing this, the Celestial Hound fell silent.

That sounds pretty good.

Although he is called the Celestial Dog, to be honest, he has never actually tasted the dragon liver and phoenix marrow that the gods in heaven often talk about.

Although his master Yang Jian often received rewards from the Heavenly Court, he basically threw them into the stinking ditch.

As a result, he had never tasted the delicacies of the Heavenly Court.

Hearing Su Bai's words now, he couldn't help but feel a little tempted.

"Woof?"

"Would I lie to you? I, the Little Cat Daoist, never... ever keep my word!"

Although Xiaotianquan still harbored a sliver of doubt, as a dog, besides biting people, his only other hobby was eating.

It would be a real shame to give up the opportunity that is right in front of us now.

Thinking of this, the Celestial Hound turned around and squatted on the cloud. Perhaps to help Su Bai conceal his presence, the clouds beneath his feet began to grow larger, eventually covering both Su Bai and himself.

Inside the main hall, besides the Buddha's sermons, strange noises could be heard from time to time.

It sounded like the sound of an axe chisel carving, or the low growl of some kind of wild beast.

Some people looked up in confusion, but still couldn't find where the sound was coming from.

But as the Buddha's voice grew louder and louder, those noises were completely drowned out.

In fact, Yang Jian had noticed the cat and dog the moment Xiaotianquan left.

At this moment, his palms were covered in cold sweat, and the third eye on his forehead was staring intently at Su Bai and Xiaotian Dog.

Seeing the cat and dog's every move, he even had the idea of ​​leaving first.

His head was buzzing, especially when he heard Su Bai say that he would continue to cooperate with Gouzi in the future.

Finished!

Finished!

We can't keep this dog!

……

Beneath the stone pillar, Guanyin Bodhisattva's brows were furrowed.

In his memory, the Buddha's sermons were always fluent, but today, for some reason, he kept pausing, as if he was being influenced by some external force.

But besides this cat, there's nothing else here...

Ok?

Where's the cat?!

The Bodhisattva was slightly anxious.

This place is the Western Paradise, Mount Ling. According to the Buddha, Mount Ling can connect to all worlds, and even a single blade of grass, a single leaf, or a single flower here can form its own world.

If this cat doesn't understand anything and runs to the wrong place, it might wander into another realm, making it difficult to find it among all the realms.

Just then, he vaguely heard a discordant noise coming from the Buddha's sermon.

The Bodhisattva subconsciously looked up and saw that a cloud of mist had appeared on the dragon pillar at some point.

In the past, some minor demons in the mortal realm who were devoted to Buddhism would be fortunate enough to stray into this place and transform into clouds or mist to secretly listen to the Buddha's teachings.

However, this cloud did not seem to contain any demonic energy. Upon closer inspection, two small, thin figures could be seen faintly within the cloud.

One sits atop the clouds, the other lies prone on a coiled dragon pillar.

The one above the clouds is looking around, seemingly taking a break.

The one on the dragon pillar seemed to be fiddling with something, and it didn't give him a very good feeling.

After a moment's hesitation, he waved his hand slightly, as if trying to blow away the cloud of mist.

But just as he was about to make his move, the Buddha's voice suddenly grew louder.

"All conditioned phenomena are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, shadows, dew, and lightning; thus should they be viewed..."

……

"Woof!!"

"Alright, alright, one's been taken, the second one will be ready soon."

"Woof!!!!"

"Don't shout, don't attract their attention!"

At this moment, Xiaotianquan felt like dying. Although separated by clouds and mist, he could clearly see that Buddha's eyes were staring straight at him and Su Bai.
