Chapter 723 Fire From the Past
At this moment, Xie Que seemed to be transformed into an isolated island in the vast river of time.
Suddenly a blazing fire burst out around his body. This fire was so intense that
In an instant, Xie Que was separated from the surrounding light.
The flame was by no means comparable to ordinary mortal fire. It seemed to have traveled through endless time and space, rushing from a distant and unimaginable past.
This ancient flame is jumping and dancing, exuding an inexplicable energy.
Look at those ancient Buddhas who were originally solemn and surrounded by Buddha light.
The moment the Buddha's fire ignited, it was as if a restraining spell had been cast on them.
He stood neatly on the spot, motionless.
The faces of the Buddhas seemed to be frozen in time, rigidly fixed on their unique expressions.
Their movements seemed to have been cast by a restraining spell, and they could only barely maintain their posture at that moment.
And at the forefront of the Buddhas, Shariputra Buddha, who was still in control of victory just now, now had a look of astonishment on his face.
Although Sariputta Buddha himself was not affected by the fire at all,
But after all, he has experienced countless trials and tribulations and has seen too many extraordinary things.
But even so, this strange situation that immobilized all Buddhas appeared for the first time in his long career.
For a time, even he, who had always been in a calm state of mind, could not help but feel ripples in his heart.
At this moment, I saw Shariputra Buddha gently waving his long sleeves, and in an instant,
An incomparably powerful magical power surged out from his sleeves.
As soon as this magical power appeared, it immediately transformed into thousands of dazzling rays of light.
These light filaments are intertwined and intertwined, weaving into a huge web in the blink of an eye.
This net contains endless cosmic light, and it penetrates the endless river of time in an instant.
The blazing fire quickly enveloped Xie Que's body.
Judging from his posture, it seems that he wants to completely put out this strange and inexplicable fire with the power of this blow.
However, the seemingly ordinary fire actually seemed to have its own intelligence.
When it keenly sensed that the magical power emitted by Shariputra Buddha was rapidly approaching, it suddenly rose upwards.
In an instant, Xie Que's black shadow suddenly shot upward due to the rising fire.
The moment those thousands of rays of light touched the dark shadow in front of Xie Que, it was like ice and snow melting quickly when encountering the scorching sun.
In the blink of an eye, the entire supernatural power was completely swallowed up by the Buddha's fire, leaving no trace.
But after the fire was devoured, it burned even more intensely, illuminating Xie Que's face.
His whole body was shrouded in a halo that was both solemn and strange.
Shariputra Buddha's usually calm and indifferent expression suddenly changed at this moment.
His eyes were filled with disbelief at this time.
"How could this happen?"
"What exactly is this fire..."
Shariputra Buddha looked at the several ancient Buddhas around him who were still unmoved, as if they had fallen into a deep sleep.
He suddenly turned around, clasped his hands together, and began to bow.
Behind him, the pupils that represent the Heavenly Dao of the Bright Light Realm slowly opened, and there seemed to be endless Dao charm hidden in those pupils.
Circles of strange light circulated around it, and in an instant, several Tao rhymes representing cause and effect were released.
Shariputra Buddha quickly formed seals with his hands and muttered something in his mouth,
Every syllable seemed to come from the beginning of the world, carrying a kind of supreme majesty.
As the seal in his hand was completed, a magical power burst out from the pupil.
"Eating impurely!"
In an instant, the surrounding world seemed to be dragged into a world of chaos.
Over the course of time, the partially clear cosmic light suddenly became turbid.
The magical power called "Impure Food" wraps up the distracting thoughts of many sentient beings and turns them into a dense mist of light.
In the light mist, there was anger, crying, and despair. All kinds of negative emotions were intertwined and spreading overwhelmingly toward where Xie Que was.
Wherever this light mist passes, it seems that even the years have been dyed with a dark tone.
The long river around Xie Que was polluted by the cosmic light carrying the distracting thoughts of all living beings, and became messy and filthy.
However, under the erosion of the long river of time, the pollution caused by "impure food" also dissipated instantly, and the surrounding light gradually returned to its original clarity.
But even so, this magical power took a lot of effort from Sariputta Buddha and contained the power of the avenue of cause and effect.
Although it was instantly wiped out by the long river of time, it still pounced on Xie Que.
It's just that the rising fire around Xie Que didn't seem to be afraid. It only rolled up lightly and swallowed him up instantly with a devastating force.
After the fire swallowed up this magical power, it seemed to be nourished.
The flame tip suddenly shot up, making Xie Que's shadow become taller and taller.
At this moment, Xie Que finally moved,
I saw the light bursting out from his eyes, suddenly penetrating through endless time and space,
The next moment, a pair of ethereal hands made of blood slowly stretched out from the river of time.
As his big hand stretched out, the surrounding light seemed to sense some kind of intimidation, and they all took the initiative to avoid it.
The light of the universe, which was originally evenly distributed and flowing endlessly,
At this moment, as if seeing the king's ministers, they quickly retreated to both sides, leaving a passage that looked like a vacuum.
At this time, Xie Que's big hands were wrapped in ancient aura and slowly pushed forward.
The long river of time carries the past and present, and it is the most sacred and inviolable place in the world.
But at this moment, under Xie Que's action, the entire river of time seemed to have become an extension of his power.
Seeing this, Shariputra Buddha felt a sense of horror in his heart.
It is a kind of despair that arises from the depths of the soul when faced with absolutely powerful power.
"What on earth is this..."
"Could it be that he has condensed Dao Fruit..."
An absurd conclusion came to Sariputra Buddha's mind.
He could clearly feel that Xie Que's stance was far beyond the limit of what he could contend with.
After all, even if the existence of Sanhua is completely condensed in the other shore, it is impossible to achieve such a situation at this moment.
Even though he is an ancient Buddha, he is as small as an ant facing a mountain.
However, after all, Shariputra Buddha had been practicing for many years and refused to give up.
He gritted his teeth suddenly and used up all the endless incense power he had accumulated.
Those incense are the result of the sincere prayers of thousands of believers.
At this moment, they, together with the cosmic light pouring out from the Heavenly Dao of the Mingguang Realm, poured crazily into the body of Master Padmasambhava on the side.
Padmasambhava was originally standing quietly on the ground, with the Buddha's light and tranquility surrounding him.
But at the moment when the endless incense and cosmic light poured into it, his face instantly became vivid, as if he had come alive from ancient times in an instant.
Then, right at his heart, a dazzling bright light exploded.
In the depths of the dazzling light, a white lotus as white as snow was slowly unfolding its petals, as if waking up from a deep sleep.
In an instant, the white lotus began to expand crazily at a jaw-dropping speed!
In the blink of an eye, the originally small and exquisite white lotus had become extremely huge.
Each petal is as wide as a vast continent.
Not only that, these petals actually reflected a small shadow of the world!
In those illusory little worlds, the scenes are thrilling.
Bottomless fissures opened in the earth, and towering mountains collapsed.
The dust that covered the sky and the sun was raised, and the rushing river suddenly flowed upstream, setting off turbulent waves...
It's as if all the forces in the world that can bring about destruction have been compressed and condensed into this.
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
The billowing smoke and dust were like a surging black torrent, spreading overwhelmingly.
At the same time, a deafening roar resounded through the sky like thousands of thunders.
This extremely terrifying aura of destruction swept towards Xie Que's direction. Wherever it passed, the void trembled and everything was fearful!
At that moment when many phantoms of the world shattered and destroyed like bubbles, and collided violently with Xie Que's big hand made of blood,
The surrounding space and time were thrown into chaos by this violent energy fluctuation.
The space rippled and twisted into strange shapes.
Cracks spread like spider webs, seeming to drag the whole world into endless chaos.
At this moment, Shariputra Buddha's eyes were fixed on Xie Que's big fleshy hands.
As the blood surged, a picture was actually reflected, which instantly pulled Sariputra Buddha's mind into it.
In the illusory reflection, a Buddha sits on a lotus platform with a majestic appearance.
He opened his lips slightly and explained the profound Dharma principles.
The Buddhas below sit in neat rows, all with calm faces.
The Buddha's light around them swayed gently with the sound of chanting sutras, as if echoing the Buddha's words.
In the entire Buddhist hall, only this sound of Buddha echoed.
The Buddha's shadow sitting high on it seems to stand above all the heavens and worlds. The Buddha's light around him is extremely bright, but it is not dazzling.
Every ray of light seems to contain endless compassion, but in this compassion, there is also a domineering aura that dominates everything.
I saw the Buddha figure spreading his hands gently, as if he was holding the fate of all living beings in the world.
The birth and destruction of the world, the birth, old age, sickness, death, joys and sorrows of all living beings are all under its control.
What made Shariputra Buddha's pupils shrink even more was that even I, Buddha Tathagata,
At this moment, he was just sitting respectfully under the Buddha's shadow, like an attendant.
Although the treasures are equally majestic, they are obviously inferior.
This kind of scene is so beyond imagination that it completely subverts Sariputra Buddha's cognition.
In an instant, Shariputra Buddha seemed to be struck by a thunderbolt, and the originally fuzzy memory fragments in his mind began to surge crazily.
He instantly realized that the Buddha that appeared in the reflection was probably the Buddha from the past who had already transcended!
Thinking back to those days, when the Buddha attained transcendence, it caused drastic changes in the entire Buddhist world.
Many causes and effects and memories related to it seemed to be gently wiped away by a big invisible hand.
In that accident, I also lost part of my memory about the Buddha in the past, leaving only some vague and specious impressions.
After many years, Shariputra Buddha finally understood what the Buddha had done in the past.
He did not expect that the Buddha in the past had cut off part of the river of time and thus transcended the avenue.
The power it possesses has exceeded the limit that they, the Heavenly Lords of the Other Side, could imagine.
Shariputra Buddha never thought that the Buddha in front of him, who represented the future Buddha, actually had the Buddha fire that represented the past Buddha hidden in his body.
The Buddha's fire was burning fiercely on Xie Que's body at this moment, as if it were a projection of the will of the past Buddha across a long period of time.
"escape!"
Shariputra Buddha's heart was filled with disbelief at this moment, and his originally calm heart had already been shattered into pieces.
He knew that the situation in front of him was completely beyond his control.
In such a battle, I am afraid that only the three Buddhas of the past, present and future are qualified to intervene.
And that Buddha piece is probably a chess piece that represents the future or the past.
And if I stay here, I'm afraid I will only be completely crushed by that unpredictable power.
There is no other thought at the moment but to escape!
Only by escaping from here as soon as possible can it be possible to preserve the Buddha body that has been cultivated for countless years.
But just as he was about to turn around, his body turned into a ray of light before he could turn around.
Xie Que's big hand composed of blood and energy had already broken through the condensation of Padmasambhava's magical power, and it swooped down with an aura that would destroy the world.
I saw that big hand covering the sky and the sun. Wherever it passed, the space was squeezed so hard that it made a "crackling" sound and turned into a vacuum.
Then it collapsed completely and turned into chaos.
And Padmasambhava had previously devoted all his strength to use the endless incense and cosmic light to create a blow that could destroy an entire world.
In front of this big hand, he was as fragile as paper.
Accompanied by a loud noise that shook the earth, it seemed as if the entire void shook violently.
Light splashed everywhere, and the shadows of these worlds instantly turned into specks of light.
The power of destruction that originally contained apocalyptic power was easily crushed by the Zhou Guang carried by the big hand, leaving no trace at all.
All this happened so fast that Shariputra Buddha could only watch helplessly.
He understood in his heart that although Padmasambhava also condensed the other side of the three flowers,
But after all, it comes from the past and belongs to an existence that has been finalized in the past.
And the Buddha's fire burning in Xie Que's body comes from the transcendent Buddha of the past.
Those existences have transcended the shackles of convention, overlooking the changes of time.
For those Buddhas who have passed away long before his transcendence, the power left by the past Buddhas,
Just like the scorching sun hanging high above the sky, it has natural restraint.
The magical powers they exerted and the power they gathered,
In front of this Buddha fire, it was like ice and snow meeting the scorching sun, and they were completely vulnerable.
Therefore, these ancient Buddhas that just made Xie Que feel extremely troublesome,
At this moment, under the absolute suppression of the Buddha's fire, it has become the easiest existence to deal with.
Xie Que immediately moved his bloody hands again, and the ancient Buddha figures that were still emitting Buddha light appeared.
Suddenly, it seemed as if it was being pulled by an invisible powerful force, and it was involuntarily drifting away in the direction of the long river of time.
Their figures gradually became illusory and transparent in mid-air,
In the end, they were all submerged into the long river of time flowing with endless cosmic light.
Only circles of slightly rippling ripples were left, proving that they had briefly appeared. (End of chapter)
