Although the Great Sage and Little White Dragon were distracted during Master's speech, they did not delay their business.
When the plaque of the Consciousness Only Sect was officially revealed in the world, the sound of Sanskrit seemed to be heard in the chaos beyond the nine heavens. The melodious silence was like a clear spring flowing, washing the soul.
Accompanied by the profound Buddha's sound, the warm and peaceful Buddha's light fell on the world, calming the hearts of all living beings in Chang'an City in an instant.
The Buddhist rhyme coming from Master Tripitaka seems to contain infinite power and comes from the firm belief deep in the heart.
"Infinite Prajna, the mind is at ease, the movement and stillness of the body are natural in silence."
When Guanyin Bodhisattva saw this, he praised him and said to the Great Sun Tathagata beside him: "The method of Tripitaka has been completed."
A layman looks at the excitement, an expert looks at the door.
In the eyes of the vast majority of people in the three realms, Buddhism is undoubtedly a transcendent sect. In fact, this is also true. There are indeed very few monks in the three realms who can walk in the mortal world.
Even though those Buddhist temples are all built in busy cities, aren't all their words just talking about escaping from the world?
However, they haven't eaten any of the benefits of this world, and I'm afraid they haven't done anything about it.
The real core of the consciousness-only teaching established by Tripitaka today is "entering into the world", which is a method of self-improvement.
From the fact that Tripitaka himself has always adhered to the attitude of "don't ask for help from others, but strive for self-improvement", it is enough to predict what kind of changes the Consciousness-Wei Sect will bring to Buddhism in the future.
As the Holy Buddha of the Three Realms, Master Tripitaka has no intention of shrinking from challenging the existing rules of Buddhism. Moreover, for Buddhism itself, even the Buddha and Bodhisattva are on his side; for the Tang Dynasty, the Great Tang Dynasty Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, was his sworn brother.
It can be said that the right time, place and people are all present, and we have taken the lead.
Master Tripitaka recited the founding Buddhist sutra.
All sentient beings are immersed in it -
Especially the monks, Arhats and Bodhisattvas who came from Lingshan, when they listened to Master Tripitaka chanting sutras, their eyes were filled with tears. Master Tripitaka's Buddha's voice was like the sound of nature, delicate and quiet, as if gentle fingers were brushing against the heartstrings, making them intoxicated. , unwilling to wake up;
It is also like the vast starry sky, vast and majestic, and all-encompassing, allowing them to feel that the Dharma of consciousness-only Buddhism is as boundless as the sky.
But for the ordinary people in Chang'an City, bathing in the light of Buddha and listening to Master Tripitaka's Dharma, they felt a sense of self-confidence, spontaneously rising from the bottom of their hearts, and their waists suddenly straightened a bit.
These visions did not last long and stopped after the sound of Fahai Buddha fell.
"Amitabha."
Master Sanzang chanted the Buddha's name for a long time, indicating that the unveiling ceremony came to an end for the time being.
"Dragon King of the Four Seas, congratulations on the founding of the Consciousness Wei Sect!"
Suddenly a high-pitched dragon roar echoed in Ci'en Temple, and the Dragon King of the Four Seas separated everyone. The Dragon King of the East China Sea walked in the front, followed by the remaining three brothers. Each of the four Dragon Kings stepped forward holding a treasure box in their hands. On the altar.
Guests offering gifts are also part of the opening ceremony.
From another aspect, it is also an important manifestation of the sect's connections.
However, not all guests can be called out at this time. Only the guests who have received the invitation or the more special ones can step onto the altar to offer gifts at this stage.
Of course, those monks and gods who did not receive the invitation, but came after hearing the news, naturally did not come in vain. When entering the temple, they had already given the gifts to the "chief steward" Wu Jing.
Wu Jing also registered them one by one. If there is an opportunity in the future, he will still return gifts according to this gift list.
They didn't come in vain, and Ci'en Temple certainly didn't accept their gifts in vain.
Although the order had not been specifically determined before, they naturally knew who had received the invitations. They were also familiar with such ceremonies, so they arranged them silently according to their status in the Three Realms. Basically, They're all pretty much the same.
Firstly, everyone has this tacit understanding, and secondly, today is the opening ceremony of the Consciousness-only Sect. Those who received the invitations are those who have a close relationship with the Consciousness-only Sect. Naturally, they will not cause any trouble at this time.
Based on the scene before us, the last person in the queue is naturally Lishan Laomu.
Going forward, we have the Great Immortal Zhenyuan; then we have Guanyin Bodhisattva and Mahavatar Tathagata. Which of them comes first and who comes last depends entirely on the two of them, and there is no question of who must go first and who comes last.
The remaining few are actually about the same, but the Dragon King of the Four Seas still takes the lead and is the first to give the gift!
"oops!"
"It's actually the Dragon King!"
Although the Dragon King of the Four Seas always seems to be shorter among the many immortals and Buddhas, he still has a certain status among the common people.
After all, for ordinary people, even low-level gods such as the Earth God, the Mountain God and the City God are inaccessible to them. I saw so many legendary figures in one breath today, it was really It was a great eye-opener.
In fact, in addition to the Dragon King of the Four Seas, all the water gods under the Tang Dynasty were also present. Among them were the water gods and dragon kings from various rivers and lakes, who were like the little dragon in the Black Water River. If he hadn't called the little white dragon Cousin, in order to have a seat today, I am afraid that I can only be ranked at the bottom of the water system gods.
The Dragon Kings of the Four Seas came forward to offer gifts.
The leader of the Dragon King of the East China Sea was the first to speak: "Little Wang Ao Guang, congratulations to the Holy Buddha on the founding of the sect. I specially present a set of five-element dragon beads to express my respect and ask the Holy Buddha to accept it."
As soon as the Dragon King of the East China Sea finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to open the treasure box in front of him——
Then he saw five fist-sized beads emerging from the treasure box, floating around in mid-air.
White, green, black, red, yellow, the five colors shine. Then the five elements of brilliance are connected into one piece, showing the appearance of mutual generation, just like one body, flowing endlessly.
Roar--
Then, on top of the dragon ball, five five-color divine dragons appeared, flying and circling over Ci'en Temple, which caused the people of Chang'an to exclaim in surprise.
Not to mention the common people, even the immortals and Buddhas present were amazed in their hearts.
"These five dragon beads are absolutely extraordinary!" Someone couldn't help but exclaimed: "If we are wrong, I'm afraid they are the legacy of the ancient dragon clan!"
"As expected of the Dragon Clan, we really have a great family and a great business."
"Hey, there are many treasures in the Dragon Palace. This is the consensus of the three realms. Do you really think this is just blowing up?"
"That's true, but these Five Elements Dragon Balls are not ordinary treasures. They are even willing to take out such treasures this time."
"It also depends on who you are giving the gift to, but now it is just right."
"But even so, such a skill is probably not a trivial matter for the Dragon Clan, right?"
"Haha. You don't seem to have noticed that this is just a gift from the East China Sea Dragon Clan family."
None of the people present were mediocre people. Perhaps when they saw the Five Elements Dragon Ball before, they were slightly attracted to it, but now that they have calmed down, they can naturally notice this situation.
Although the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas came up together, their congratulatory gifts were not shared.
So it also shows that the Sihai Dragon Clan directly sent four copies of the same size gift. This...
Interested people are already looking at the other "distinguished guests" invited by the Consciousness-Wei Sect. Will the Dragon King of the Four Seas raise such a high profile and cause any trouble to them?
After all, not everyone, like their Four Seas Dragon Clan, has the Dragon Palace treasure house left over from the ancient dragon clan.
"This set of Five Elements Dragon Balls is what was left behind after the death of the five seniors of our Dragon Clan. Their true spirits have long been dispersed in the Three Realms, leaving only these five Dragon Balls." Ao Guang briefly introduced this set of Five Elements Dragon Balls. I didn’t say much else about the origin.
Then he pinched a magic trick and put the dragon ball back into the treasure box.
After Wu Jing recorded all the details, he stepped forward to accept the gift from the Dragon King of the East China Sea. Although the five dragon beads were a little more expensive, their master and disciple could still afford them.
Then there is the Dragon King of the West Sea.
With Zhuyu, the Dragon King of the East China Sea, in front of him, and his son Ao Lie becoming a disciple of Master Tripitaka, their relationship with the Weishi Sect in the West Sea is the closest.
The Dragon King of the West Sea came forward with a treasure box in his hands, "Little Wang Aorun, congratulate the Holy Buddha on the founding of the sect."
He did not rush to open his gift, but first thanked Master Tripitaka, "and then thanked the Holy Buddha for teaching the child."
"Amitabha." Fahai clasped his hands together and said with a smile, "The third prince is a good disciple. It is a blessing for a poor monk to have him as his disciple."
"I, the West Sea, don't have as many treasures as my elder brother, the East Sea." The Dragon King of the West Sea reassured himself before opening the treasure box and taking out a whisk. "This whisk is said to be collected from the fallen ancestral dragons." It is difficult for our unworthy descendants to get the approval of our ancestors by making dragon beards, so we boldly offer them to the Holy Buddha."
hiss--
Everyone present took another breath.
He said in his heart: What a treasure that is not as vast as the East China Sea!
It is a well-known fact in the three realms that the bodies of the Dragon and Phoenix clans are covered with treasures, let alone the Ancestral Dragon?
Although it is just the dragon beard that fell off the ancestral dragon, it is also related to the ancestral dragon!
The Peacock Princess, who was already behind the Peacock King Bodhisattva, first looked at the five-color feather fan in her hand, and then at the dragon whisker in the treasure box in front of the Dragon King of the West Sea. She probably already had a measure in her heart.
This feather fan of mine is made from the five-color tail feathers shed by my ancestor. I am able to wander around the three realms, and this treasure is indispensable.
So, what kind of power should the whisk made from the ancestral dragon's whiskers have?
It can only be said that everyone in the Four Seas Dragon Clan is extremely wealthy and envious.
Don't tell me yet.
Fa Hai glanced at it and felt that this whisk was destined to him.
Before he came to this world, he had a whisk that he took with him on the westward journey. He also thought that if he had the chance, he would refine a whisk and use it, but he never had a suitable opportunity.
Unexpectedly, today I would receive a dragon whisker from the Dragon King of the West Sea.
The so-called treasure has a spirit and can choose its own owner. It is rare for Fahai to have his heart moved. Unexpectedly, the dragon whisker could not hold it any longer. He directly got out of the treasure box and rushed towards Master Sanzang.
Roar--
Accompanied by a dragon roar that resounded through the sky, it was obviously just the dragon whiskers of the ancestral dragon, but at this moment, the whisk directly evolved into the virtual form of the ancestral dragon. The dragon eyes that looked down on the world were truly worthy of the hegemonic demeanor of the past.
This dragon's phantom seemed to be out of reach, even if the five dragons appeared together before.
Shenlong probes its claws!
The target is none other than Master Tripitaka!
When the Dragon King of the West Sea saw this, he suddenly panicked. This whisk was made from the ancestral dragon's beard, and it was definitely a top-grade spiritual treasure in the three realms. But there was only one shortcoming, that is, their current Four Seas Dragon Clan, There is no way this whisk can be recognized as its owner.
Even a dragon beard of the ancestral dragon, the aura contained in it is enough to cause unbearable pressure on ordinary dragons.
Although the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas were not afraid of the pressure from above, they were not recognized by Fu Chen. However, Ao Moang, who was recognized by Fu Chen, said that he was not used to Fu Chen. He was a man and should hold a spear in his hand to travel across the three realms. .
It is precisely because of this that Longxu Fuchen has always stayed in the West Sea, but he has never shown his true power.
Seeing Master Tripitaka and suddenly "attacking" him at this moment really caught the Dragon King of the West Sea off guard.
But the Dragon King of the West Sea, who was about to use the magic formula to forcibly put the whisk into the treasure box, suddenly stopped the movement of his hand because he saw the Master Sanzang directly opposite seeing the dragon whisker whisk transformed into the ancestral dragon. Not only did Ying not panic, but he smiled and his eyes brightened. This seems to be a "just in time" look.
confidence.
To put it simply, the Dragon King of the West Sea saw the word "confidence" emanating from Master Tripitaka everywhere.
If the true form of the ancestral dragon comes here, it will naturally be a different scene, but now. If the ancestral dragon's virtual form turned into a virtual form by Tripitaka Master Lianzulong Longxu with the help of a trace of the ancestral dragon's breath on his body is difficult to subdue, then that's it. Don’t be called the “Holy Buddha” anymore, and there is no need to establish a sect here, the Consciousness Only Sect.
Fahai was actually not upset about this sudden change. This small episode just allowed him to stretch his muscles and allow those monks who had never seen his actions to see with their own eyes the power of his cultivation.
Now Fahai, as the ancestor of a sect, will never be stingy with any opportunity that allows him to show off his cultivation.
For the nascent Consciousness-Only Sect, although Buddhist theories are the core of the sect, they themselves are the cornerstone that maintains their spread in the three realms.
The stronger your magic power and the higher your cultivation level, the more indestructible the Buddha Dharma of the Consciousness Only Sect will be in the three realms.
The moment before the dragon's claw approached, Fahai pinched the magic formula with his hand and recited the mantra. The Buddha's glory was shining brightly. No matter how sharp his dragon's claw was, he could not penetrate any further.
call out--
"The mighty Tianlong!"
Then I saw Master Sanzang roaring, and the golden light all over his body suddenly condensed into one place, turning into a golden dragon, entangled with the phantom of the ancestral dragon.
Fa Hai felt something in his heart, clapped his hands together and said, "Come together!"
Roar--
In mid-air, another dragon roared for nine days, but the two dragons were already reunited.
"Come!"
Fahai stretched out his hand again, and the dragon-shaped shadow danced in the air for two and a half weeks, rushing towards Master Tripitaka again.
Only this time, the dragon-shaped shadow became smaller and smaller as it soared in the direction of Master Sanzang. When the shadow completely dissipated, everyone saw that the handle of the dragon whisker was already in Master Sanzang's hand.
