Chapter 688 The Pain of Practicing and the Joy of Karma!

Although the various forces usually compete secretly with each other and fight to the death, no matter how dangerous and fierce the fighting behind the scenes is, on the surface, everyone is still within the same system.

Since we are under the same roof, necessary human interactions are naturally indispensable.

After all, this is an unwritten rule since ancient times. If anyone dares to break it easily, I am afraid it will be difficult to stay in this heaven for a long time.

Xiao was successfully promoted to Celestial Immortal, which gave him the qualifications to become a chess player.

However, if he does not host a banquet for everyone and does not accept gifts from all parties, then those under him will inevitably have doubts and may even fall into endless anxiety.

You know, there is an extremely realistic and ironic joke that has been circulating within this huge system:

If a leader gives a gift to a leader, the leader may not remember it; but if a leader does not give a gift, the leader will definitely remember it.

There are always some people who are accustomed to using their own narrow thinking to speculate on others.

If they think that Xiao did not hold the promotion banquet just because he was not invited, or because he is dissatisfied with himself, then these people's thoughts may be like wild horses, guessing uncontrollably.

In the end, they will most likely regard Xiao as their imaginary enemy and switch to the enemy camp.

This kind of thing is not even an exaggeration, but a bloody lesson. Favors can sometimes be more effective than direct threats.

Never doubt the narrow-mindedness of people's hearts. Some people are narrow-minded and naturally think that everyone in the world is as small-minded as themselves.

Because of this, a large-scale and lively promotion banquet is crucial.

This feast is not only a way to show Xiao's status improvement to the outside world, but also an excellent opportunity to maintain interpersonal relationships and promote emotional exchanges.

…

…

Xiao's promotion banquet lasted for a full week before it came to an end.

During this period, gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas from all walks of life came in droves, each bringing carefully prepared congratulatory gifts.

Xiao, on the other hand, was so busy that his hands almost felt soft after receiving the gifts!

Especially the gifts given by those highly respected bosses, each of which was at the level of rare treasures, gave Xiao a lot of face.

After the promotion banquet was successfully concluded, Xiao only left one incarnation to continue to perform his duties as the God of Wealth, and he himself had already plunged into the library in heaven.

This library is the place where the wisdom and culture of Heaven have been crystallized since ancient times. It contains countless Taoist scriptures and a variety of dazzling magical powers.

Compared to Jin Chan's carefree and lazy lifestyle, Xiao obviously prefers to continuously enrich himself through reading books.

Especially when faced with the precious collection accumulated by the Heavenly Court after thousands of divine tribulations, those various magical powers and techniques are simply like an inexhaustible treasure house, all-encompassing and all-encompassing.

Not only that, but many sparks of inspiration for the exploration of power that burst out from various gods at a certain moment are also recorded here. All of this makes Xiao fascinated, even to the point of forgetting to sleep and eat, and the whole person is completely immersed in it. There is no way to extricate yourself from it.

However, what makes people feel regretful is that these extremely precious wealth of knowledge, to the other gods in heaven, are just like worn out shoes, being thrown away here to eat ashes.

Because the gods in heaven are busy scheming and fighting for power all day long, they have no time to pay attention to these treasures that can truly improve their own strength and quality.

It is no exaggeration to say that compared to the long lifespans that can be obtained by those who can directly rely on their immortal karma,

The little life span gained through one's own hard training is simply insignificant to the many gods and Buddhas, like a drop in the bucket.

In fact, the biggest obstacle that prevents the gods from successfully surviving this terrible catastrophe is not the scarce spiritual resources, but on the contrary, it is the human nature full of desires!

A complete world reincarnation in Journey to the West takes a full 120 million years!

If you want to survive forever, you have to devote a full seventh of your precious time to practicing with concentration.

This practice is not actually a relaxing and comfortable thing, but an extreme test of one's patience and willpower!

The process is boring, tedious, and even boring.

Just think about it, even if you practice hard and boringly for a full year, the life span you can increase in the end is only more than three hundred years, let alone the demon king of the lower world.

This feeling is like a person who is deeply addicted to a mobile phone and cannot extricate himself from it, and is forcibly prohibited from touching the mobile phone every Sunday. It is really the most painful torture!

And as a monk, how could everything go as planned?

Even if you are hiding in your own cave and practicing hard, you may cause unexpected disasters for no reason.

Whether faced with the imminent problem of avoiding disaster, or being forced into a fierce life-and-death battle,

It is even necessary to respond to the prayers of those extremely devout believers, create all things in the world, and many other situations, all of which require a large amount of mana.

Because of this, the time originally used for cultivation could only be extended over and over again.

Then at this time, there is something that can extend your life without practicing. Would you still go back to practice honestly?

The immortals' karma and Buddha's fruition are a longevity system opened up by Tathagata Buddha. Relying on the faith of sentient beings, they contribute their spiritual essence to feed the gods.

If all the beliefs of sentient beings are unified, it is like a company that cuts leeks, then the existence of the immortals' karma is the company's position and the stock certificate used for dividends.

Practicing alone is like working for others to make money. You are busy every day and tired like a dog. However, the little money you earn with great effort can't even pay the rent, and even filling your stomach has become a big problem.

The so-called immortal karma is like becoming a shareholder of a company, and you can easily take the company's dividends.

Sitting leisurely in a comfortable leather chair, elegantly tasting the mellow red wine, with a charming and charming little honey in his arms.

Perched high in the sky, it looked disdainful and laughed at the workers below who were busy working like ants.
