A lot of big things have happened in Linghuang recently.
The eyes of countless practitioners are focused on Xizhou and Lingyin Temple.
The first big thing was that there was a sudden rumor that a small world called the Sea of Blood was going to invade the spiritual wasteland, and it was said that a priest had come to the human world through a certain passage.
The second major event was the birth of the Sword Buddha of Lingyin Temple. This man, who had reached the pinnacle of his worldly cultivation and was once as famous as Dao Yan Zhenren and Qing Emperor Song Nu, was rumored to be recruiting disciples for the first time.
The third major event is about Dao Zong and Lingyin Temple. Countless people have been speculating how Dao Zong will get along with Lingyin Temple. Some people think that because of the sudden appearance of the sea of blood, Dao Zong will choose to give in. Some people also think that Lingyin will The Temple Council chose to continue arguing with Daozong.
But to everyone's surprise, it was Xun Ju who drew the sword in the end. He did not speak, but on the last day of Lingyin Temple, he cut off the last Buddhist temple in the temple with one sword.
Break the Buddha.
Several other holy places naturally understood the meaning of the master of Qinglu Palace, who meant to cut off the Buddha.
Buddhism has been flourishing for so many years, and now even the Taoist land of Dongzuzhou is full of temples. Not to mention holy places like Kunlun, even other Taoist sects are unbearable.
This time, taking advantage of the birth of the sea of blood and the trapping of Dao Zong's disciples, Dao Zong finally expressed his attitude.
That is to cut off the path to Buddhism.
For a moment, the Linghuang practitioners all panicked.
The beginning of the war between the three religions heralded that the peaceful pattern that had existed for thousands of years would be broken.
Many elderly people clearly remember that in the last battle, although Buddhism stood at the end, it attracted the anger of a big man who had already transcended heaven and earth.
And this time, has the big man ascended? If not, will he appear again?
As for Buddhism, countless Buddhist practices began to be in danger, and countless temples began to hold Buddhist meetings, hoping to promote Buddhism from them.
…
Xizhou.
The ruined temple located a hundred miles outside Xiguan gathered a large number of Buddhist practitioners.
Many people call it Hinayana Christianity.
The reason why there are so many Buddhist cultivators is because it is rumored that Sword Buddha was born here, and some people even rumored that Song Nu from Qingdi City once visited here.
And it is said that as long as you can amaze the world here, there is a high chance that you will be favored by Sword Buddha.
So, naturally people started competing here.
First they talked about Buddhism, and then they practiced wheel meditation. After that, some Buddhist practitioners began to compete with each other.
But in the end, a few respected old monks came forward and established some rules, which prevented internal strife in Buddhism.
One of the rules is that Buddhist disciples who come here from other continents need to have a connection with the Buddha statue in the ruined temple before they are qualified to enter Deling Mountain to listen to the teachings of several leaders.
Of course, the deepest meaning is that only by standing out from these people can one become a disciple of Sword Buddha.
As a result, the small ruined temple immediately became sacred.
Those Buddhist cultivators who thought they were talented and talented were all vying to stand out in this competition.
Among the crowd, a short boy with an ugly face stood quietly on the periphery of the crowd.
His breathing was a little unsteady. It was the first time he appeared in this world, and he was surrounded by countless enemies who were trying to kill his people. These people seemed to have kind faces, but the young man knew clearly that in the sea of blood, even the youngest They will not let go of any children. Become a disciple of Sword Buddha.
The corners of the young man's mouth curled up slightly. This was indeed a very interesting thing.
In the past few days, he has learned some things about the Celestial Realm. He has learned that these seemingly powerful Celestial beings are also divided into several factions. He even knows clearly about the existence of some border alien races.
"The reason why the elder is unwilling to be enemies with heaven and man is that he is afraid of those supreme beings, but he doesn't know that those beings dare not take action at will, because the world will collapse because of their actions."
The young man thought to himself.
With the talent of the Xi Tuo clan, under such a strong spiritual energy, their power will increase at an unimaginable speed, and no one can see their origins.
As long as you can become a disciple of the Sword Buddha, Buddhist cultivators among gods and humans will crawl at your feet.
What a wonderful thing.
The ugly boy, whose true identity is the Lord of the Sea of Blood, Styx grinned, but the next moment, his expression froze.
Because he felt an extremely cold gaze looking at him.
That gaze could see through everything, and any secrets on his body were uncovered, as if he was exposed to the sun without any clothes on.
Styx raised his head and followed his gaze with difficulty.
Then, Styx saw clearly the owner of that indifferent gaze.
Standing in a green shirt, it stands quietly in the wilderness like a green pine, moving with the breeze, and then becomes tall and majestic.
Styx subconsciously wanted to escape.
But he found that his legs couldn't move for some reason.
"Who are you..." Styx asked tremblingly, his voice full of fear.
No one knew that the Lord of the Blood Sea would actually leave the Blood Sea in such an identity and then mingle among Buddhist practitioners.
Styx didn't even think anyone in this world could recognize it.
After being freed from the sea of blood, his body was no different from that of a heavenly being, and was even stronger in some aspects.
But now, just as soon as he appeared, he encountered such a terrifying existence.
Styx did not dare to make the slightest move, but quietly waited for the man's judgment.
…
"Isn't it good to be alive?" Shen Yu looked at the young man in front of him and said expressionlessly: "You should really listen to that elder's words... Although the sea of blood is becoming more and more broken, you can still live for thousands of years. enough.
Styx raised his head, with a hint of rebellion in his shocked eyes.
Living for thousands of years sounds like a long time, but for the long life of a creature in the Blood Sea, it is too short.
The elder has lived for too long, and his courage has become as small as the sand in the sea of blood.
If he hadn't known about the existence of heavenly beings, perhaps he would have resigned himself to living out the remaining years.
But the appearance of those Buddhist cultivators, and the ghosts pulled out from the ground, tell Styx all the time that the place where the heavenly beings are is the place that the creatures in the sea of blood dream of.
Styx stubbornly looked at the man and said firmly: "You heavenly beings are not willing to accept a limited life, and there is no other race in the world who is willing to accept it."
Shen Yu said nothing.
He said this when he just woke up and met Shang Yingluo when he entered the Southwest Dao Sect.
On the road ahead, all ethnic groups are pioneers.
Those sages of the human race are.
So are the ancient mythical beasts of the demon clan.
The Demon Ancestor from the Demon Realm is even more so.
Shen Yu never believed that heaven and earth existed for a single race.
Avenues are never created for a certain group of people.
The cultivation methods of the three religions blend with each other, and the human race and the demon race also have many similar methods.
As for this blood sea creature, so what.
Shen Yu never cared about these worldly camp concepts.
If Taixuan had seen this young man back then, he would probably have taught him a few Taoist techniques to add more variables to his fellow Taoists who were traveling forward on the road.
"Tianyan is fifty, Dao is forty-nine, there will always be one who escapes." Shen Yu said calmly: "You are very interesting."
Listening to the other party's indifferent voice, Styx felt like a baby for the first time.
I wanted to resist, but I didn't have any strength at all.
This was not a mere physical resistance, but a sense of surrender coming from deep within, as if the man in front of him was born to be superior.
Obviously, what the other party said about Tianyan Fifty was some kind of extraordinary truth.
Styx asked tentatively: "Won't you expose me?"
Shen Yu smiled and shook his head.
Styx exhaled, suppressed the fear in his heart, and continued to ask: "Who are you?"
Shen Yu thought for a while and replied: "Daozong, Shen Yu."
Ming He had never heard of this name, but this name seemed to be engraved in his heart like a knife. No matter how he tried, he could not erase Shen Yu's name from his heart.
"Buddhism calls the creatures in the sea of blood 'Shuras.' You may have heard of this term. Shen Yu turned a blind eye to the young man's fear, and just said slowly: "One of the great aspirations that Buddha made during his practice was about Shura, that is, if the sea of blood is not empty, he will never become a Buddha. Therefore, for countless years, Buddhism has People in the upper three realms enter the sea of blood one after another just for this great ambition."
Styx's eyes widened as it was the first time he heard rumors about creatures in the blood sea.
No one in the clan knew about these things, not even the elders who symbolized wisdom knew anything about them.
He subconsciously approached the other party, wanting to hear more secrets about the Blood Sea. .
What makes Styx even more strange is that the man in front of him is among many people, but it seems that he is the only one in the whole world.
Only he could hear the small voice, and the people around him were unaware of it.
"Buddhists and Shura are natural enemies. Either the ten thousand Buddhas in the world have saved the creatures in the sea of blood, or these Buddhas have all fallen into the sea of blood and become demons. For thousands of years, no one has ever tried to unite them. Two become one."
Shen Yu's voice continued to sound.
Styx felt that his eyes suddenly became brighter, and he had some new ideas following the other party's words.
The Buddhist cultivators among gods and humans, the Xi Tuo tribe in the sea of blood.
What kind of state would it be like if two great enemies in the world reached the ultimate in their respective cultivation.
If the previous thought was just a flash of inspiration.
But now, Styx has more thoughts in his mind. If according to what the other party said, he is the devil in the mouth of Buddhist cultivators. As long as he practices Buddhism, he can wash away his own filth, so that his soul can be cleansed.
And the physical body of the Xituo people is a rare and unsullied body in this world.
He is a Buddha, and he is also a demon.
He will be the only one in this world.
Styx stood up and nodded towards the man in green shirt in the distance.
Then, he turned around and walked into the ruined temple.
Shen Yu stood quietly in the distance with a calm expression.
He suddenly found that this journey was very interesting, even more interesting than the previous journey.
Over the long years, it is also very interesting to sow a seed and then watch it take root and sprout.
