"Why did the temple bell ring early today? Isn't it not the closing time?"
The monk who was meditating and chanting sutras turned his head and whispered to the monk sitting aside. The monks on the side were chanting sutras by themselves. But as the bells rang continuously, all the monks in the hall stopped chanting sutras and hammered the wooden fish.
"No, this is the resonance of the Buddha bell. Someone has become a Buddha! Strange? Master Tianquan and Tianxuan are both in the temple. Did it trigger the resonance of the Buddha bell?"
There was a gentle knock on the temple door, and all the monks looked at it together.
You must know that this is an unknown place in the wilderness - Wulongyuan. It is not something ordinary people can find. If a mortal wants to come to Wulongyuan, he must at least overcome the severe cold wind and snow climbing the holy mountain and the snowy mountain monsters that choose people to eat. .
The Zen door opened slightly, and a familiar face emerged from behind the door.
"It's a thought!"
A monk exclaimed.
The monk soldiers of Wulongyuan quickly ran out of the courtyard, their eyes were splitting, and the devil was still alive.
"Disciples, listen to the order and get rid of the demons!"
Soon, Chi Chaan was surrounded by people, leaving no way for him to retreat.
"Dear mages, I'm not here to fight today. I'm here to get rid of demons. And this demon is not just a thought of mine."
"Formation!" the monk soldiers roared, calling out the long stick soul soldiers one after another. Three hundred monk soldiers and Buddha sticks formed a formation in an instant. Countless stick shadows struck Chi Chaos from all angles in the space.
"It's useless to say more, I still have to let you see it."
The moment before all the attacks landed on Chi Chaan, a flash of golden light appeared, and all the attacks immediately rebounded. For a moment, all the monk soldiers became unstable and flew upside down.
This formation will be destroyed without attack, with the power of Xiguo's immortal golden body.
People cannot rely on strength in the air. At this time, the body and spirit are the most vulnerable and relaxed.
Chi Chaan's eyes flashed with purple light, and the monks and soldiers around him had dull eyes, but they fell to the ground completely within a breath.
At this time, their spiritual world was turbulent, and their boat trip across the sea was shaken by the waves. This was both their disaster and their opportunity. Those who were attracted by the inner demons this time would either fall into madness or become Buddhas and become demons.
"One thought, you are too presumptuous!"
A Buddhist chant came from the depths of Wulongyuan, and many monks and soldiers who had fallen into inner demons woke up, but they did not dare to take a step closer to Chi Chaan.
"Okay, all the monks are not allowed to stop him and let him see the abbot."
As soon as Tian Xuan finished speaking, Chi Chaan's figure appeared in front of him.
"Kuxuan... No, Master Tianxuan, long time no see." Chi Chaan smiled and greeted Master Tianxuan who was sitting in front of the Demon Temple Hall.
"On one thought, I believe that you are not here to revisit your old place. So, what is the purpose of your coming here?"
"Purpose?" Chi Chaan lowered his head and thought for a while, but did not answer.
"Everything has a cause and effect. Your coming here is the effect, and why you are here is the cause."
"Cause and effect?"
Chi Chaan thought deeply for a while and gave an answer, "Kill the devil and become a Buddha!"
"It's so funny!" Tian Xuan clasped his hands together, the dragon-elephant soul slowly rose behind him, and the Saint Master's unique domain expanded.
"You show yourself as a saint in front of the people at the foot of the mountain. The poor monk can clearly see that you have become a Buddha and yet you kill a devil."
Naturally, the scenery at the foot of the mountain cannot escape the eyes of the people on the mountain. This is also the way they choose. Only those who always have Buddha in their hearts can have the opportunity to climb the holy mountain and enter Wulongyuan.
"Although I have become a Buddha, demons have not been destroyed. In a single thought, both Buddha and demons appear."
In front of the Mocha Hall, the discussion between Chi Chaan and Master Tianxuan did not end, but entered a more profound state.
In a Zen atmosphere, the two practitioners discussed the fundamentals of Buddhism and magic through verbal and spiritual communication. Chi Chao's view of Buddha and Demon gradually showed powerful power in this discussion, surpassing Master Tianxuan's understanding.
"One thought of Buddha and devil, life and death are realized together, and all living beings are the same. All dharmas are equal, and all conditioned dharmas are like bubbles in a dream." Chi Chaan's voice resounded like a Sanskrit sound in the Demon Temple Hall, as if the truth came from the depths of the universe. sound.
Master Tianxuan stared at Chi Chaan, with a flash of brilliance in his eyes: "Chi Chaan, your views are quite different from what I have learned about Buddhism. Buddha is Buddha, and demons are demons. Buddha and demon can realize life and death with just one thought. What is this? How ridiculous?"
Chi Chao looked behind Tianxuan, and then explained with a smile: "Master Tianxuan, the thought of Buddha and demon is deep in our hearts, transcending the binary opposition of good and evil, good and evil, and integrating Buddhism and demonism. Life and death Common realization means that at the moment of enlightenment, one transcends the cycle of life and death and sees through the illusion of all phenomena in the world. The nonduality of all living beings shows that all living beings have boundless Buddha nature, but are only blinded by demonic thoughts. The road to enlightenment is Behind the master."
Master Tianxuan nodded slightly and realized the profound meaning: "Your point of view is so profound, it seems completely different from the understanding I have gained from years of practice. But as far as the poor monk knows, those who enter the Demon Temple Hall are either addicted to it and completely crazy, or have demonic thoughts in their hearts. What’s worse is that he is unaffected and is born a fierce demon.”
Chi Chaan's smile became brighter and he said, "Master, don't forget that I also came out of it."
Master Tianxuan fell into deep thought, and then said slowly: "You are taking a new path of cultivation."
Chi Chao responded with a smile: "What the master said is true. The path I chose is indeed an unusual one. In this realm, I may face more challenges and troubles, but this is also part of the practice. I believe that as long as I stick to it, In my heart, I can handle everything.”
Master Tianxuan thought for a moment, and then asked again: "Although the thoughts of Buddha and demon are profound, can you guarantee that your thoughts of Buddha can defeat the demonic nature in your heart every time? It is impossible for a practitioner to face temptation. Always stick to your heart?"
Chi Chao smiled: "Master, it is precisely because of the existence of the thought of Buddha and demon that I can see all kinds of temptations encountered in practice, see through temptation and transcend the devil. In this realm, everything is equal, and good and evil are just appearances. I am not passively transcending the demonic nature, but through profound understanding, I integrate the demonic nature into the Buddha-nature, making it an aid to spiritual practice."
After hearing this, Master Tianxuan's expression gradually calmed down: "Chi Chao, I admire the depth of your realm. Perhaps, you will be able to see the results of this practice in the future, but you cannot completely change the poor monk's mind at the moment."
In the Mosha Hall, the atmosphere suddenly became solemn. Although the discussion between Chi Chao and Master Tianxuan reached its peak, it turned into a duel beyond words in an instant.
Chi Chaan smiled and bowed to invite him, his eyes revealing a deep and peaceful atmosphere.
Master Tianxuan also slowly stood up from where he was sitting, his eyes flashing with determination and calmness.
The two stood opposite each other, as if the entire Demon Temple Hall was enveloped in this tense atmosphere.
"Master Tianxuan, your Dharma is indeed profound, but in my realm, you can't defeat me." Chi Chaan's voice was calm and powerful, like a clear spring going deep into people's hearts.
Master Tianxuan took a deep breath and looked solemn: "Chi Chao, although your realm is profound, the Dharma I practice cannot be underestimated. Although the thoughts of Buddha and demon have their own truth, it still depends on whether they can truly transcend the cycle of life and death. After you were taught by a poor monk."
Finally, Master Tianxuan couldn't bear the irritability in his heart. He shouted the Buddha's name and threw the beads in his hand towards Chi Chaan. Chi Chao did not dodge or dodge, he clasped his palms together to welcome this Buddha's power.
In an instant, two powerful forces collided in the Demon Temple Hall, causing strong fluctuations in soul power.
"Master, please calm down." Chi Chaan's voice was like the sound of Buddha, but there was a sharp light in his eyes.
Master Tianxuan also stopped attacking and stared deeply at Chi Chaan: "Your way of practice is indeed admirable, but the poor monk cannot tolerate your blasphemy against the Buddha's teachings. The poor monk cannot tolerate your so-called thoughts of Buddha and demon." Agreed."
After saying that, Master Tianxuan launched another attack, and the dragon-elephant soul shot out thousands of rays of light, instantly covering Chi Chaos. Chi Chao's figure looked extremely small under this Buddha's power.
"The physical body is invincible with the magical power of Vajra!"
The duel between the two was like thunder between heaven and earth, resounding loudly. The entire Wulongyuan was trembling in this fierce confrontation, as if it was about to collapse at any time. Every collision between Chi Chao and Master Tianxuan triggered strong energy fluctuations, making the monks present feel uneasy.
During this fierce battle, Chi Chaos body exuded a mysterious power, as if he was integrated with the Mosha Hall. Although his moves were simple, he just threw a few punches to meet the attack, but each blow was filled with dazzling Buddha light, which neutralized Master Tianxuan's attacks one by one.
Master Tianxuan gradually felt a shock from deep inside. Although he had always believed in traditional Buddhism, in the fierce battle with Chi Chao, the power of Buddha embodied by the other party made him start to think about whether there was a higher power. The realm was something he had never comprehended.
Time seemed to have lost track in this fierce battle, and the entire Mosha Hall fell into chaos. The monks couldn't help but close their eyes, as if silently praying that this fight could end as soon as possible to avoid causing more damage to the temple.
However, just as the fight was getting heated, Chi Chao suddenly stopped attacking, his eyes revealing a kind of compassion and wisdom.
He put down his confrontational attitude and said slowly: "Master Tianxuan, the time has come."
Chi Chaan waved his hand, and a dark Zen staff flew out of the Mosha Hall.
"This is!"
Master Tianxuan's mood fluctuated violently for a moment, and he couldn't help but say, "Master's soul weapon."
Why are the master's soul soldiers in the Demon Temple Hall? Could it be that Master also gave up on Buddhism and coveted the power of demonic power?
Tianxuan's momentary confusion gave Chi Chaan an opportunity. An imperceptible evil thought penetrated into the mirror sea of Tianxuan's holy master realm. The lotus mark flashed across Chi Chaan's eyes, and a memory was transmitted to Tianxuan. mind.
"He was enlightened and enlightened!"
This move was like adding fuel to the fire. Tianxuan's soul mirror sea, which was originally only slightly cracked, suddenly collapsed into countless fragments. The snow on the Soul Mountain melted and merged into a sea, and the sea surged to the sky. The reason is that he saw the scene where Chi Chao was used by Tianquan to seize the six-story magic power with the immoral and infinite leakage.
The senior brother he respected actually abandoned the Buddhist teachings he had practiced all his life and turned to practice demonic skills that were abandoned by the world. Under the double blow, the dragon and elephant soul disappeared behind Master Tianxuan, and he fell directly from the Saint Master realm to the Grand Master realm.
"Tianxuan, can you now understand again: a single thought of Buddha and demon can lead to the realization of life and death?"
