Chapter 358: The Arhat Who Cuts Off Karma
Main Hall. Read 520 Official Website
Buddha's light is shining, and the sound of Zen is ringing.
Fahai sits cross-legged on the nine-grade merit lotus platform, turning into a golden body of two meters, like a golden statue.
Seeing the Buddha enter the door, Fahai is about to stand up to greet him.
"No need to be polite."
The Buddha sensed Fahai's breath, and the righteous way was magnificent and very different from the original Buddhism, and he nodded with satisfaction.
Having lived for a long time, the Buddha has long understood a truth. If Buddhism wants to continue to innovate and meet the needs of the times and eras for thousands of years, it cannot rely solely on its own comprehension and deduction.
There are talents in every generation, and only the geniuses born in this era can realize the Buddhism that is in line with the era.
The Buddha welcomes such new scriptures. As long as they are willing to convert to the seat and help increase the fruit of the Tao, they will be included in the official scriptures and widely promoted.
For example, Mahayana Buddhism is not the basis for the Buddha's enlightenment, but a product that conforms to the times. .
The innate gods and humans fought for the throne, causing the ancestral veins of the earth to break and divide into the current continents. After the Tianqing Emperor was shattered, the spiritual energy dropped greatly, and it became a thousand times more difficult to become an immortal or a Buddha. Therefore, a genius created Mahayana Buddhism, which is more suitable for believers to practice.
The Buddha accepted him as a disciple and incorporated Mahayana Buddhism into the orthodox school. Now it has become the most important part of the longevity fruit.
On the contrary, if you don't follow it, it will be a heretic scripture and an enemy of Buddhism!
The geniuses of the times are always proud and arrogant, and those who can comprehend new scriptures are even more so. There are many madmen in history who claim that "the position of the Buddha can be replaced."
Unfortunately, in the face of the overwhelming power of the Buddha, most of them have completely disappeared, and a few have become secret sects with few believers.
Fahai decisively agreed to become a disciple, saving many means, which made the Buddha very satisfied.
The karma-cutting Buddhism can be said to be the biggest surprise of Buddhism after the small six paths were broken. The only thing that made the Buddha unhappy was that there was a person in the hall who was too annoying.
Zhou Yi smiled and bowed, saying: "Meet Taoist friends again."
The Buddha snorted coldly and ignored it.
Immortals, Buddhas, gods and demons are always indifferent and emotionless in front of the world, and only show anger in front of the same level.
At this time.
Ananda entered the hall, and was slightly startled when he saw Zhou Yi, and put his hands together and said.
"Amitabha! I have a deep affinity with you, and we can meet in every life."
Zhou Yi looked at Ananda, whose strength was only the first level, but the aura of great light was extremely pure, almost turning into light.
"The master's teaching method is the same as before. If you are so bewitching, aren't you afraid of dying halfway?"
"The layman is wrong. There is a big difference!"
Ananda said, "How can we confuse guiding people to be good with tempting people to be evil?"
Zhou Yi shook his head and said, "Those who willfully distort others' wills are evil demons. White Lotus"
Ananda wanted to continue to argue, but noticed that the Buddha looked uneasy, so he changed his tone and said, "I will remember your teachings."
"The evil White Lotus Sutra still leaves endless harm."
Zhou Yi said, "Since the master has given up the fruit of the Tao, it is better to ban it, which is also a great merit."
"This is simple. I just need to modify the scriptures and doctrines, and the White Lotus Sect will turn from evil to good."
After Ananda realized the White Lotus Descent Sutra, he evolved the Maitreya Sutra, the Three Yang Sutra, etc. He was a master at modifying the meaning of the scriptures, and he could make the White Lotus Sect change its sect imperceptibly.
"However, I have something that I need your permission."
"Go ahead."
Zhou Yi had a guess in his mind, and it was probably related to the underworld.
Sure enough.
Ananda said: "When I achieve the fruit of the bright Dao, please help the underworld."
Back then, the cultivation and realm of the ancient Buddha of light were enough to condense the Dao fruit, but he lacked three points of luck. Now Ananda has inherited everything from the ancient Buddha, and he must make up for the shortcomings before achieving the Dao.
The underworld is in charge of reincarnation and has great luck. Ananda also participated in its creation, so he can use luck to achieve the Dao.
"Yes."
Zhou Yi said: "If the master completely abandons the evil scriptures, he can be in charge of one level of hell."
This is not an important position, but Ananda doesn't care. He just needs to borrow luck, not to plot for the power of the underworld. This is what he planned before condensing the Dao fruit.
"Good, good!"
Ananda's hand showed the White Lotus Throne, and he said to Fahai: "Junior brother, you have attained enlightenment today. I have nothing, but this treasure is worth showing off."
"Junior brother, you have gained a lot from the Severing Karma Sutra. Based on this, you can modify the White Lotus Sutra. In the future, you can use this to collect the incense and faith of the White Lotus Sect."
"Thank you, senior brother, for your generous gift."
Fahai took the White Lotus Throne, and the Dharma was in operation, and he actually refined it directly.
"Amitabha!"
Ananda was not surprised to see this. Fahai's foundation for enlightenment came from the White Lotus Mother, who was from the same source as the evil Buddha.
The White Lotus Evil Buddha had been annihilated under the Six Souls Banner, his foundation was broken, and his fruit of Tao fell. Now Fahai is the person closest to the White Lotus Throne in the world.
Zhou Yi stared at Ananda deeply. With this fate, it would be difficult to kill him again.
What's more, Ananda definitely has more than just this hand. Back then, Mozi's millions of true spirits were eroded by the evil sutra, and it is hard to say that there are no hidden dangers.
"Master, good tricks!"
"Same here!"
Ananda said: "This is the first time I've heard that there is a treasure that can kill Daoguo in the world, and even the ancient gods and men have never possessed it!"
"I will see more in the future!"
Zhou Yi glanced at the Buddha, wondering if the four swords of Zhuxian could kill his Daoguo.
The Six Soul Banner is strong, but it also has many disadvantages. One of them is the conflict of luck, and the other is that the curse lasts too long.
Forty-nine days is enough for the Buddha to find a solution, at least he will give up the Daoguo and reincarnate like Ananda.
The Buddha suddenly felt cold, and he knew the reason without any calculation. He said: "I have not been involved in Buddhist affairs for a long time. Ananda needs to concentrate on practicing. In the future, Fahai will be respected in Buddhism!"
Zhou Yi clapped his hands and praised: "The Buddha has great wisdom."
The Buddha felt that the coldness had disappeared, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Since his return, he has been investigating Zhou Yi's whereabouts.
As a result, he asked all those old friends, such as Duobao, Yunzhongzi, Zhouyi, Yiqing and other names, as well as treasures such as the Golden Dragon Shears and the Soul-Falling Bell. There have been no similar rumors since ancient times.
Not to mention the Six Soul Banner and the Apricot Yellow Flag, which have surpassed ordinary treasures for enlightenment, and there should be no traces.
It was so strange that the Buddha was afraid and did not want to confront Zhou Yi.
The Buddha has lived from ancient times to the present, and he has seen many fellow Taoists die and disappear during this period. He relies on everything to be prepared in advance.
The immortals and Buddhas in the hall exchanged wits with each other, and noon was approaching.
The sun was blazing in the sky, and it was very sunny that day.
Fahai, who had been chanting with his eyes closed to adjust his mind, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the sky.
Rumble...
Dark clouds gathered and thunder rolled.
The monks in the temple and the spectators looked up at the sky, knowing that the auspicious time had arrived.
"Amitabha!"
A loud Buddhist chant spread all over the place, and Fahai soared into the sky, stepping on the ninth-grade merit lotus platform, holding the diamond seal in one hand and holding the white lotus in the other.
The thunder of the catastrophe continued to gather and condensed into a thunder dragon of ten thousand feet.
Ang!
The thunder dragon let out a long roar and was about to fall.
"A trifling trick!"
Fahai cast a diamond seal, and the thunder dragon that had not yet landed in the sky was instantly shattered, and screams and wails were faintly heard.
The trend of the diamond seal did not decrease, and it was like a hundred-foot-long hole was blasted out in the catastrophe cloud. The sun shone through the clouds and shone on Fahai, as if he was coated with a layer of pure gold.
"Is this method of overcoming the tribulation unheard of?"
"Only those who are reincarnated as immortals and Buddhas, who have the realm of their previous lives, can be so calm."
"Buddhism should be proud of this successor!"
Fahai broke through the clouds with one blow, which really scared the audience. Many cultivators with a similar realm to Fahai could not help but look ashamed.
Mozi sat on the top of the giant boat, with a hint of interest on his face.
Everyone was talking, the thunder tribulation in the sky had gathered again, the dark clouds turned into yin and yang, five elements and seven colors, and then thunder fell from the sky.
"Nothing special!"
Fahai's Vajra Seal turned into a Treasure Bottle Seal, and his golden body stood still, allowing the thunder to bombard him.
After a while.
The thunder became sparse, leaving no trace on Fahai.
"It's time to end!"
Fahai felt the power of the thunder tribulation, shook his head to show that he was quite bored, and flew into the tribulation cloud on the lotus platform.
Boom boom...
The thunder roared, and Fahai's actions seemed to have angered the nine-layer immortal tribulation.
Various thunderbolts appeared in the dark clouds at the same time, gathering into a sea, rushing towards Fahai like a tide, trying to drown him.
"Amitabha!"
Fahai ignored the thunderbolts, sat cross-legged in the lotus platform, and began to recite the Sutra of Cutting Karma and Protecting Life.
He recited the sutra three times in a row, and the thunderbolt roared continuously, and even the lotus platform's protective divine light could not be broken. It seemed that it could not bear the humiliation, and gradually stopped in a wailing.
After the thunderbolt was passed, the inner demon calamity came.
Fahai suddenly fell from the clouds with illusions, and became a child of a farmer's family. His life was poor but happy.
In a blink of an eye, the demons attacked and devoured the farmer's family...
Before the inner demon calamity was fully evolved, the child Fahai burst into infinite Buddha light, and smashed the demons and illusions into pieces with a lion seal.
"Karma can be cut, and the inner demon can also be cut!"
Fahai knew that the demons were secretly watching, and he was too lazy to wait for the inner demon calamity to change, so he smashed it directly.
The dark clouds slowly dissipated, and a Buddha light descended from the sky.
Seeing this, many people who were watching the ceremony could not help but try to get close to the ascending Buddha light and take advantage of it.
Bujie Arhat showed his body, looked around, and scared everyone away.
Fahai bathed in the immortal light, and his golden body grew to six feet tall, condensed into the body of Arhat, emitting infinite Buddha light.
"My way is complete!"
Upon hearing this, the monks and believers of the Buddhist country immediately bowed to the ground and worshiped, shouting the Buddha's name: "Praise the great virtue and power of the karma-slaying Buddha!"
The people who watched the ceremony bowed and saluted, and from then on, they should call him the immortal elder.
"Cut the karma of the evil scriptures, violate the way of heaven, and be punished!"
A voice suddenly sounded, and a giant claw fell from the sky, covering the sky with one hand and heading towards Fahai.
The void trembled, and the extremely terrifying power imprisoned the entire capital of the Buddhist country.
Fahai had no way to avoid the attack in front of countless believers, and he used the Fearless Seal with his hand and slammed the giant claw.
Boom!
With a loud bang, the hand seal and the giant claw collided.
After only a few breaths of confrontation, Fahai fell from the sky like a kite with a broken string.
The Nine-Rank Lotus Platform glowed with divine light, eliminating most of the attacks, and the remaining power fell on Luohan Jin, cracking countless wounds and splashing golden Buddha blood.
"The immortals and Buddhas are fighting!"
The faces of the people watching the ceremony changed drastically, and they all used escape techniques to stay away to avoid being affected.
Mozi looked at the giant claw that lifted the sky and said calmly: "It turned out to be an old neighbor!"
"Who?"
Yan Chixiao was eager to fight, and he was eager to try. The giant claw in the sky was only stronger than the Yinglong demon god.
"White Tiger!"
When Mozi spoke, a mechanism box appeared in his hand, ready to activate the treasure at any time.
The demon god cannot condense the true spirit, so he cannot live forever. However, he has lived for hundreds of thousands of years. His demonic energy is extremely strong. His demonic body is comparable to an immortal weapon, and he is not inferior to the saints of the human race in fighting.
The Buddha snorted coldly: "Evil beast! Don't be so arrogant!"
The Buddha Kingdom in the Palm!
One world hit the giant claws of the white tiger, and the tiger roared in the air, followed by blood falling all over the sky.
The face of a white tiger appeared in the sky, and the head of a tiger hundreds of feet high looked down in the sky, like a god patrolling the world, and the tiger's mouth opened and joined together like thunder.
"World Honored One, you have never paid attention to the changes of heaven and earth, so you have survived until now. Now that the Demon Court is about to be established, are you ready to go against heaven?"
"Amitabha!"
The World Honored One shook his head and said: "The poor monk obeys the destiny, but he cannot watch his disciples suffer.",
"What a big joke!"
White Tiger's eyes showed a mocking look and said: "How many disciples have you accepted since ancient times, and who are still alive today? As far as I know, the ancient Mahayana Buddha died when ghosts and gods surrounded him, and you did not save him!"
"Is it because he is afraid that the ancient Mahayana Buddha will condense the Taoism and become the leader of Buddhism?"
The sound of the white tiger was like thunder, and the sound quickly reached everyone's ears, causing everyone to be stunned. Then it turned into a look of horror and fear, and they escaped faster.
No matter what Bai Hu said is true or false, if he accidentally learns the secret of the World Honored One, the result will not be too good.
The World Honored One does not need to take revenge. Those fanatical believers in Buddhism will naturally wipe away the stain on the Buddha.
All those who knew the stain were dead, and the World Honored One was a perfect man without any stain!
Mozi's eyes narrowed slightly, his mind changed, and he recalled that many of the Buddha's disciples, such as the Mahayana Ancient Buddha, the Guangming Ancient Buddha, etc., seemed to have died shortly after becoming their disciples.
Needless to say, the ancient Mahayana Buddha, the Mahayana Buddhist scriptures account for the great contribution to the World Honored One's current state.
The Great Light Sutra written by the ancient Buddha of Light is only one step away from condensing the path and fruit, blessing the Buddha on the path and fruit, and obtaining the true meaning of the Great Light. Together with the Great Freedom and the Great Perfection, it is called the Three Truths of the World Honored One!
Mozi thought of the Taoist Patriarch from the World Honored One, and there were similarities. Neither of the two disciples ended up well.
"Humph! No wonder everyone is not far behind the path of enlightenment. These two guys are so powerful that they have such a plan!"
From ancient times to the present, there are no more than a hundred people who have condensed the path and fruit of immortality. The gap between talent and perseverance is very small. If you want to get rid of your fellow practitioners, you must find another way.
Mozi even made some scornful remarks, while Fahai and Ananda frowned, their thoughts changing.
Fa Hai silently recited the Sutra of Killing Karma, and put an end to doubts in his heart. No matter what the World Honored One does, he is practicing Buddhahood!
The World Honored One is the Buddha, the Buddha is not the World Honored One!
Ananda recalled many senior brothers, many of whom had Buddhist talents that far exceeded his own. However, the only one who had condensed the path to immortality turned out to be Buddhist rebellion.
However, when the demon god was in front of him, no matter how suspicious he was, he couldn't show it on his face. He was more careful afterwards.
"Amitabha!"
The World Honored One said slowly: "The cycle of cause and effect is determined by destiny! The poor monks and disciples have suffered many hardships. When the Paradise of Ultimate Bliss is built, they will be extradited back and enjoy the status of Bodhisattva and Buddha!"
Mozi even uttered a few words of disdain, while Fahai and Ananda frowned, their thoughts changing.
Fa Hai silently recited the Sutra of Killing Karma, and put an end to doubts in his heart. No matter what the World Honored One does, he is practicing Buddhahood!
The World Honored One is the Buddha, the Buddha is not the World Honored One!
