Chapter 925: Liberation
"Ananda!"
Countless voices of resentment rose one after another, setting off the roar of the Monkey King, making the dark and terrifying Lingshan even more bizarre.
Meng Qi opened his eyes and looked at Jiang Zhiwei and others, and saw the same confusion in their eyes:
What role did Ananda play in the battle at Lingshan that year to leave behind so much resentment and hatred?
In this regard, Meng Qi had a guess. Could it be that the army of demons had to thank Ananda for the demon saint's escape? From then on, love and hate were hard to separate. The mark of killing someone who is unlucky, one person enters reincarnation, the obsession is difficult to get rid of, the mark gradually weakens, and eventually falls into the devil's way?
"The demon saint who dared to climb the Lingshan Mountain and invade the Pure Land must have made a breakthrough, crossed the sea of suffering, landed on the other side, and become a real big shot. Ananda had not yet practiced the Tathagata God's palm and became a demon at that time. He was just a legendary Arhat. After all, How could He De allow the Demon Saint to leave Lingshan alone?" Jiang Zhiwei raised her own question.
Zhao Heng pondered for a while and said: "The Buddha's death must be the achievement of Tao, fruit and transcendence. Maybe he left some back-ups, which were used by Ananda to trick the demon saint. However, the demon saint should not ignore this aspect. The chance of falling into a trap is extremely low..."
He then sighed: "In the original battle of Lingshan, there were very few survivors. It is really difficult to figure out exactly what happened and what the plans of both sides were. We still need to explore slowly."
Meng Qi's heart suddenly moved, and he looked at Jiang Zhiwei, Ruan Yushu and others, and thought of a possibility. Ananda was using his relationship with Demon Saint Feng Xi to make her fall into a trap and turn against her?
This is closer to the subsequent development!
Although Meng Qiyu did not clearly describe the matter between Ananda and the Demon Saint to Jiang Zhiwei and Ruan Yushu, after experiencing so many things, especially knowing the existence of "love, justice, kindness, don't enter this door", they were informed by Master Yunhe It is not difficult to guess what happened to the demon saint chasing Ananda.
At this time, Ruan Yushu frowned and made another guess: "Ananda and Kassapa are the two most outstanding among the ten disciples of Buddha, and are the main successors to the Pure Land. Perhaps their strength should not be used simply." Measured by the level of a great Arahant.”
A great Arhat is equal to a great Bodhisattva, and those who are close to the Buddha are in the legendary realm. Meng Qi and Jiang Zhiwei have always treated Ananda Kasyapa in this way.
But the most outstanding among the great bodhisattvas, such as Ksitigarbha and Guanyin, have long been able to achieve the Buddhahood. They just did not take that step because their great vows were not fulfilled. However, their own strength and realm are not better than the Buddha. The vast majority of Buddhas have transcended the realm of legend.
Ksitigarbha Guanyin is like this, why can't Ananda and Kasyapa?
——The fruition status of Buddhism is roughly equal to the realm of practice, but it is not strictly equal to the realm. There are always exceptions. For various reasons, the realm is high but the fruition status is low, just like the salary level and official position.
"It makes sense." Jiang Zhiwei nodded slightly, thoughtfully, "Perhaps Ananda, after completing the Nine Postures of the Tathagata Divine Palm, has broken through the realm of legend, stepped into the final sea of suffering, and achieved good fortune, even if he is not as good as the Zhenwu Qingdi Others are no different from Ksitigarbha Guanyin, but they have not achieved Buddhahood due to other reasons, such as obsessions?"
"In this way, the gap between him and the Demon Saint is much smaller than expected."
After the legend, it can leave imprints on all universes and fragments of cosmic light, and with the birth of more universes, imprints will naturally be produced in them. This is the completion of the legend. Taking one step forward, one begins to explore the past, peek into the future, and truly feel When the long river of time exists and washes away itself, it is considered to have entered a new realm. In essence, it has reached a higher level. It is for "good fortune". The Fire Emperor, Golden Emperor and Blue Emperor and Black Emperor before the breakthrough are the perfection of "good fortune". level.
Of course, many practitioners feel that this is the last section of the sea of suffering. Once you cross it, you can reach the other shore, so they often use the sea of suffering to refer to the realm of creation.
This is a popular name that is not very accurate, because once a person is born, he is in a sea of suffering.
Meng Qi's green shirt moved with the howling wind of Lingshan Mountain, his expression was calm, and his gray hair on his temples swayed slightly: "If Ananda had the realm of creation, he shouldn't have used karma to kill several saints, especially if he didn't bring Luo Shu."
He told Jiang Zhiwei privately about this matter, and did not hide it from Ruan Yushu and Zhao Heng at this time.
Jiang Zhiwei pondered for a while and said: "After each reincarnation, the mark will definitely become weaker and weaker. Ananda has an obsession and will never let it go. His strength will probably decrease in each life, and the death of the Overlord at that time may have something to do with him. Relationship, the self-destruction before death will not make him feel better. After all, Ananda's realm may still be legendary at that time, but his strength may not be so, and he can only kill several saints by using the cause and effect. "
"And when he practiced the Tathagata Divine Palm in reverse, he turned his obsession into demonic will, and after going smoothly, he quickly recovered his peak strength, and then left Ananda's Pure Land to make another breakthrough."
She made reasonable inferences.
"Maybe this is the truth..." Meng Qi had a strange sigh in his tone. He looked around and said in a low voice, "Let's go deep into Lingshan Mountain."
Jiang Zhiwei saw that he was holding a long knife in his left hand and his green shirt was swaying. He no longer tried to be concise and concise when speaking. Although he was still deep in thought, he no longer had the feeling of depression and death. He seemed to be alive. His heart moved and he quickly sent a message: "At one stroke, it will weaken again, and then it will be exhausted. Let us deal with the enemies waiting later."
She heard Wang Siyuan say that Meng Qi suffered ten years of sitting and polishing his sword.
Meng Qi replied in a voice transmission: "It's okay. Before I draw my sword, I have to warm up and slowly gather my momentum, just like before a volcanic eruption or an earthquake, there will be more or less some signs, so that there can be a loud eruption."
Seeing Meng Qi face her question directly, Jiang Zhiwei's mouth curled up, feeling quite pleased.
Outside this half-collapsed Buddhist temple, countless dark cracks appeared in the dark void, like the huge mouths of monsters, choosing people to devour.
And they also separated a series of small paths leading to the top of the sacred mountain. Occasionally, there was wind blowing, tearing the flesh. If a mortal was here, his body would have been split and his soul would have melted. If he really went to the place where the battle took place, he might encounter the Samadhi Divine Wind.
In the distance, thunder was born and died, the stars were flashing, and from time to time a flash of lightning penetrated and illuminated the sight. Meng Qi, Jiang Zhiwei, Ruan Yushu and Zhao Heng walked slowly and cautiously.
Roar!
The road was winding and seemed to never end. Countless creepy voices were heard from nearby and far away. If you sensed it, your spirit would be swallowed by the cracks in the void, which was quite painful. But occasionally you could see a half-destroyed Buddhist temple, a gray-white Arhat covered in dark gold, and a huge tiger and leopard Dharma body that looked like a hill.
Meng Qi even saw a golden body of a Bodhisattva hidden in the darkness, with cracks all over the body, gray-white liquid, and an unusually hollow face. If they were not on the same road and needed to bypass many cracks, there might have been a fierce battle. The Bodhisattva who became a zombie after death could be infinitely close to the Dharma body!
After walking for a while, a huge black shadow suddenly appeared at the intersection of the mountain road ahead. Meng Qi used his wisdom eyes to look and saw that it was a familiar person, no, a familiar monster.
"Lord Dangshan!" Jiang Zhiwei also sensed the other party with Tongtian Sword Heart.
This is a huge snake, lying there like a small hill, with a layer of gray feathers covering its body. There are rotten wounds everywhere, oozing fishy yellow pus, and the death and demonic auras are so thick that they form gray-black haze.
When they first entered Lingshan, Meng Qi and others encountered it. They passed it with the sacrifice of Luo Shengyi. Later, when they entered the Westward Journey again, they saw it again in the fragments of the Heavenly Palace. At that time, it relied on Luo Shengyi's residual soul and obsession to regain its spiritual wisdom and almost became a corpse king.
Hiss!
Sensing someone approaching, Dangshan Jun raised his long neck, and looked at Meng Qi and others with cold scarlet eyes. One was a phantom of a white-haired monster, and the other was Luo Shengyi's face, just like before.
At that time, Meng Qi and others could escape from it, but today, the gap between the two sides has been reversed, and even bigger.
Meng Qi sighed, looking at Dangshan Jun's eyes with pity and emotion, and his heartbeat suddenly became clear in the healed wound.
Boom boom boom, boom boom boom, the heart of Dangshan Jun, which had long been rotten, beat, and the soul obsession followed the "beat", and the three obsessions beat separately.
For a moment, it was stunned in place, struggling extremely.
Jiang Zhiwei also sighed, drew out the long sword, and the sword light turned into a long rainbow, slashing at Dangshan Jun from a distance, with a thrilling brilliance.
Under the sword light, Dangshan Jun's body suddenly became illusory, and the dead air and demonic energy were transparent, directly showing the three soul obsessions.
Kill the way to see me!
As soon as the sword light fell, the three soul obsessions fell apart. Luo Shengyi died the latest, and the obsession was heavier, so naturally he rushed out of the snake body first.
He floated in the air, his residual soul gradually dissipated. Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar Meng Qi, Jiang Zhiwei and Ruan Yushu, he sighed: "It's fate that plays tricks on me."
Ding ding dang dang, Ruan Yushu played a melodious piano piece, which gave birth to a strong vitality. Luo Shengyi's residual soul no longer dissipated, but gradually condensed.
Dragon turtle carrying longevity book!
Meng Qi looked at Luo Shengyi and said: "With the reincarnation seal, there can be limited reincarnation between heaven and earth. After this, if I am still alive, I will wake up your next life and give you a happy revenge."
After learning from Qi Zhengyan that the six paths may have reincarnation seals, Meng Qi deliberately collected relevant information and found that the reincarnation seal is very mysterious. He can only confirm one thing. After having the reincarnation seal, at least the first two reincarnations will not be three souls for one, but still be yourself!
Luo Shengyi laughed loudly: "Okay! Waiting for you!"
Amid the sound of the piano, his body turned into a stream of light and drilled into the void. He disappeared without a trace, leaving only one sentence:
"It was the one in the depths of Lingshan who drove me to go to the fragments of the Heavenly Palace to snatch the flower of Jianmu!"
After the words faded, Luo Shengyi disappeared into the mysterious depths of the void, without asking Meng Qi how he could find his reincarnated self?
——After all, it was not him who personally held the reincarnation seal to send Luo Shengyi to reincarnation.
"The one in the depths of Lingshan..." Meng Qi whispered to himself.
After Luo Shengyi disappeared, Dangshan Jun and the white-haired monster were freed at the same time. They flew into the air, mumbling confusedly and terrifiedly:
"All dead, all dead..."
It seemed as if they had seen the past that they could not bear to look back on.
