Chapter 518: Discussion of Law and Seating
Guhu Temple, main hall.

On the high platform, Ji Ming formed the seal of receiving wealth and increasing treasure with his hands. When he explained the two energies of Avici and Avici, he changed the seal of his hands into the seal of preaching.

The crowd below the stage listened quietly to the Dharma.

Some of them listened in rapt attention, shaking their heads and forgetting themselves completely; some of them scratched their heads and composed words on the jade slips, memorizing them by rote; and some of them seemed to have realized something and lowered their heads in deep thought.

There was an outlier among them, and that was the Little God Lord Jin.

Sometimes he cried, sometimes laughed, sometimes thought deeply, and sometimes clapped his hands. But he was able to draw inferences about other situations from one instance, and had dabbled in both Taoism and Buddhism. He could often talk about Zen and Taoism with Ji Ming, and the others could only listen.

Of course, there are also people who deliberately hide their abilities, such as Meng Nan from the Five Immortals Sect.

When Ji Ming was fighting in Lingnan, he was deeply impressed by the true teachings of the Tengshe Master Jindan.

The soft and flexible body he has cultivated, as well as the magic technique of the Five-Colored Huagai, the quasi-magic weapon the Five-Poison Sword Embryo, and the golden elixir in his stomach that can take away anyone's body at will, can be said to be invincible.

After so many years, even though the Five Poison Sword embryo has been confiscated by Master Xuantan, his cultivation must have improved.

After the explanation of this wonderful method of meditation on the Avici Two Viharas, many people were still confused, especially those who were shaking their heads just now. They were so busy immersing themselves in the mystery of it that they didn't remember any of the important points.

After the wonderful Dharma was explained, all the monks, big and small, performed the ceremony of becoming disciples.

Ji Ming waved his hand gently, glanced at the cultivators at Yang Qian's place, and said, "Are you disciples of Elder Luoying of Taoxiu Cave in Shuihu Land?"

The monks who were being watched looked embarrassed, with red faces and ears, revealing the temperament of small sects and small cultivators, which made others look down on them.

"Why are you acting so petty?"

Ji Ming shook his head slightly, looking unhappy. “The source of the Dharma lineage in Taoxiu Cave in Shuihudi can be traced back to the two southern ghost kings on Qingmu Mountain in Taiyi in the east. They guarded the ghost gate leading to Haoli, protecting Tiannan from the invasion of ghosts, and they worked very hard.

You are the successors of these two masters, but your cautious and restrained attitude is only bringing disgrace to them. "

The Taoxiu Cave disciples' hearts were pounding and their spirits were lifted when they heard this. Seeing that the Son of Chi valued them so much, they bowed and saluted in the hall, their spirits high and they gradually relaxed a little.

Ji Ming saw Yang Qian standing among several Taoxiu Cave disciples, like a crane standing out among chickens.

He was not in a hurry to contact Yang Qian. The few words he said just now were just an introduction. He would show his power here and then contact Yang Qian, and the effect would be better.

"Young Master Chishen!"

A great monk in the hall came forward on his knees, holding up the Avici Qi he had copied, and said, "According to what the young master said, this wonderful meditation method emphasizes nature rather than life, but we demons do not have strong wisdom, so when will we be able to fully understand the profound meaning of it?"

"Go find it in the mortal world."

Ji Ming said solemnly: "It is better to practice the Dharma once than to preach it a thousand times. All Dharmas are born from the mind, and all things are caused by the mind. When you see flowers, grass, and sentient beings in the world, you will see all the Dharma."

The great monk was as if he had found a treasure. He immediately wrote down these words and asked, "Both Taoism and Buddhism talk about cultivating both the nature and life, and the wonders of both the body and the spirit. However, from the perspective of the two Avici Qi, this meditation rarely mentions the life work, and does not mention the wonders of the true Qi circulating in the body."

“Once you prove it, you will have it forever. Once you gain it, you will have it forever.”

Ji Ming said this, and then said: "For example, the elixir in the world can be used to enlighten the practice of secret skills. Just a little bit of it can be compared to the magical effect of turning stubborn stone into gold and rotten wood into spring. The method of Zen meditation is the principle behind this.

If you can perfect the second stage of the Avici Qi and establish the correct understanding of suffering, emptiness, impermanence and non-self, which is the first fruit of Buddhism, your physical body will be enlightened in an instant, and the navel chakra under your abdomen will be opened instantly. At that time, in terms of life skills, you can naturally be comparable to the Taoist Jindan Zhenren. "

"Once you have it, you will have it forever."

In the hall, Uszang from the Great Sangye Temple clapped his hands and said.

Jin Zhuliu, who was sitting in the hall and whose stature was taller than the other practitioners, sighed, "Although Buddhism is profound, it is obscure and difficult to understand. Once you understand it, you will get it. But if you can't understand it, you will never get it.

But speaking of it, Taoism is better. As long as you practice step by step and make a breakthrough in Taoism, you will always make some progress in Xinggong. "

"What's the point?"

The Golden Lion Ape asked thoughtfully.

Jin Zhuliu glanced at Jin Nie Yuan and said with a smile: "It's like when you catch a flower, you naturally get the fragrance of the flower. When you catch a breeze, you also catch a hint of lightness. The principle is the same.

If the way of alchemy is not so mysterious, is it just because the heaven is in power now that you demons have turned into humans in this way? "Jin Zhuliu is worthy of being Jin Zhuliu, offending everyone equally, including every demon.

However, Jin Niyuan never judged a person with bad words. With this mentality, he exchanged a few words with Jin Zhuliu in the hall. Driven by this, everyone became enthusiastic about discussing the law.

In such an atmosphere, the Buddhist scripture conference in the temple was held for several weeks.

Many monks have jade slips that record more than a hundred things, which can be compiled into several volumes.

Outside Baibao Mountain, more and more monks came, and the events of the Buddhist Scripture Conference spread in the Western Wilderness at an unimaginable speed. Those who were interested in the topic praised it as a grand gathering of Buddhists to discuss the Dharma.

Seeing that more and more monks were coming later, Jin Zhuliu directly proposed to occupy the main hall and only allow the later ones to listen to the Dharma outside the hall.

This proposal was unanimously agreed by all the cultivators, and they then began to arrange the seats in the hall so that those who came later would know that there were rules here, and the seating arrangement was naturally determined by Ji Ming himself.

On the platform, Ji Ming was being watched by many people. He always had a Buddha-like smile on his face, and his eyes were slightly opening and closing. His appearance was so solemn and dignified without a trace of slackness, just like a clay Buddha statue.

Seeing Ji Ming kept silent, the noise in the hall gradually stopped, and everyone's expressions changed for a moment.

Some of them were smart and had already thought of another level. If the seating arrangement was fixed, they could make this Buddhist scripture meeting a precedent. After two or three times, it would become a force that stirred up the world.

At that moment, I couldn't help feeling excited and began to look forward to the seat.

As Ji Ming's silence grew longer, more and more people understood the benefits of this seat, which they had not paid attention to before. They did not expect that this key point would be of great significance. Now, after thinking about it carefully, they could not help but worry about the gains and losses.

Ji Ming finally spoke, and said with finality: "The number of seats in my hall should be seventy-seven."

As soon as he finished speaking, clear water gushed out from the cracks in the bricks of the hall, and in the blink of an eye it had formed a clear pool inside the hall.

There were lotus leaves floating on the waves of the pond, as big as millstones and green as if they were dripping. They swayed on both sides of the pond with the waves. There were exactly forty lotus leaves, no more, no less.

And in the very front, there are nine lotus flowers, all pure white in color, with auspicious colors outside the flowers like a cover, and Buddha's light blooming inside the flowers, just like the Buddha sitting on a lotus.

Everyone knew that these nine lotus flowers must belong to the nine people with outstanding Taoism and great moral prestige in the hall, and only they could sit on them. For a moment, everyone felt both excited and nervous.

"There must be a seat for me among them."

Jin Zhuliu folded his hands across his chest, stood up instead of sitting, straightened his tall body, and spoke confidently.

"No, there is no seat for you, Little Divine Lord Jin, among these 7749 seats."

"You guy"

Jin Zhuliu's face turned red and he was furious. He had earned enough fame for Chi Shen Zi here, but he didn't expect to be humiliated like this in the blink of an eye. He was so angry that three flowers appeared on his head and all the energy in his chest was running wild.

He was so angry that he couldn't even speak clearly. He had never felt so humiliated in his life. He shook his shoulders violently and two sword lights flew out.

"Little God, please don't be rude."

For a moment, all the cultivators in the hall shouted in unison.

Madam Shagu shook her wrist, and a ring flew out, directly encircling a sword light and locking it tightly. From the lantern hanging on the branch above the old Huai monster's head, a string of flying stars flew out, blocking another sword light.

The other cultivators were casting spells, each without seeming to be afraid of Xiaozhu Jinting behind Jin Zhuliu.

"Haha~" Ji Ming laughed heartily. Just by using this one trick of seating arrangement, he had attracted all the demons and cultivators here. No one could escape this fame and fortune.

"Come!"

He pointed at Jin Zhuliu casually, and Jin Zhuliu was instantly immobilized. His body was pulled onto the altar and sat safely behind Ji Ming.

As he sat down, Jin Zhuliu broke free from the restraints of the immobilization spell.

The redness on his face faded quickly, then returned and turned into a look of shame. He understood what Chi Shen Zi meant. It turned out that his status was so superior to that of other cultivators that he had to be placed on the platform.

Jin Zhuliu felt guilty for a rare moment, scratched his head and said, "Brother Chi Shen, look at what I did."
