Chapter 278 Lantern Ancient Buddha (4K)

At the end of the road, everything seemed completely silent.

Except for this round of golden sun, there is only eternal darkness.

Xie Que got closer, and a slight sound reached his ears.

"Bang bang..."

"Bang bang..."

The sound was a little weak, smaller than that of mosquitoes and flies.

But Xie Que's hearing was amazing, and he still captured this continuous sound.

He couldn't help but feel horrified. This was obviously the sound of his heartbeat. Could it be that the Buddha was not dead...

impossible……

According to what Ao Bing said, this ship of the sea of ​​desire came to the world an unknown number of years ago.

But the Buddha in front of me is most likely a god.

After reaching the fifth realm, as long as the thoughts in the whole body can be continuously updated and iterated, new thoughts can be gathered before the thoughts in the whole body are exhausted.

Because the soul is transformed into pure Yang, it is also immune to the intrusion of time.

It is almost equivalent to having eternal life and no longer worrying about life span.

It is impossible for the True Lord Yang Shen to die of old age, and it is even more impossible for a god!

Although many spiritual generals and true kings have fallen, almost all of them died unexpectedly.

For example, those venerables in Zen Lin Temple were all killed by the Dharma King of the Samurai Path when the two Zen and Esoteric sects were fighting each other in the early years.

So some sages chose to ease their relationship with the Samurai Way. They knew that if they continued to fight, the Zen sect would eventually perish.

As a result, the Qiuhe sect in Zenlin Temple chose to go far away, to Qiongyuhai or other places, to continue spreading the Zen tradition.

Zen temples such as Ci'en Zhai or Xinyuan Zhai were all built after leaving Zenlin Temple at that time.

At that time, their power was much more powerful than it is today, and was even comparable to that of Zenlin Temple.

However, due to the incomplete inheritance and the uneven quality of subsequent generations of disciples, it gradually declined.

The main fighting sect still remained on Songshan, such as Master Qiuzen and others, but they all fell into the hands of the Red Dragon Dharma King.

For a time, the religious tradition of Zenlin Temple was almost destroyed, and there was no one in the Six Realms.

Fortunately, after Master Tianlong broke through, he understood the gap, and his relationship with the Reincarnation Path gradually began to ease.

This also led to Zen Master Ji Zhen and others becoming familiar with Yan Guang and having a good relationship with him.

But Xie Que has never seen the five realms of old age and death or above in the classics.

Even the first spirit general he saw, the fallen boy, died a violent death.

But the reason is still unknown.

Xie Que gritted his teeth and moved forward again.

At this time, there were more invisible bones and corpses on the ground.

Even with every step he took, there were bones beneath his feet.

Due to the erosion of time or the interference of other forces, these bones have long become decayed and dilapidated.

Xie Que stepped on them and they all turned into ashes.

But it's even more creepy when you can't see it.

You never know what is under your feet, if there is an invisible hand firmly grasping Xie Que.

He won't know what's under his feet.

Suddenly, Xie Que felt as if he had stepped on a hard object.

Xie Que bent down and groped on the ground with some curiosity.

The ground was spotless, as if there hadn't been a speck of dust in thousands of years.

He picked it up with some caution. Under the qi and blood in his hands, he could see the appearance of the object clearly.

It appears to be a rosary.

This rosary is made of ancient wood and seems to echo my own spirit.

This rosary has survived countless years and seems to have a pattern about the Buddha engraved on it.

Xie Que recognized it and saw that it was "Buddha holding flowers and Kasyapa smiling".

"No..." Xie Que looked at it and couldn't help being surprised. There seemed to be a magical power hidden in it.

It's just that I can't understand it at this moment, and I need to spend more time to understand it.

Xie Que held it in his hands. It was as big as a peach, and he couldn't feel its weight at all.

It has a cool texture, not like a piece of wood.

At the same time, Xie Que suddenly felt that his mind seemed to be much clearer.

I suddenly realized a magical power that I had never understood before.

A startling thought also suddenly rushed into Xie Que's mind.

"Could this be made of the logs of the Bodhi tree?"

The bodhi tree only appears in legends in Buddhist scriptures. It is said that it represents the wisdom and enlightenment of the Buddha and can cut off all troubles.

"this……"

If such a good thing could be worn on the body all the time, it would be almost as good as a golden entry that improves one's understanding.

Xie Que stared at a tiny hole on the rosary.

Since it is a rosary, there must be more than one.

Other beads may be scattered nearby.

Xie Que had a thought in his mind, and under the influence of this rosary, he no longer felt the fear he had before, and started groping on the ground.

Within a kilometer radius, Xie Que was groping on the ground with his hands and feet like a blind man groping for an elephant.

Among the endless withered bones, Xie Que touched three rosary beads again, but found nothing more.

The patterns on these three beads are different, which are "cutting meat to feed the eagle", "sacrifice one's life to feed the tiger" and "seven-step lotus".

These are all stories about Buddha.

Xie Que could vaguely feel that each Buddhist bead had a Buddhist magical power recorded on it.

They are all different, yet vaguely related.

He put it away. Although these three couldn't be made into necklaces and bracelets, they seemed to be able to be made into a pendant to hang around his waist.

You can keep yourself in such a state of tranquility and awareness at all times.

I just don’t know how many beads there are.

How magical it will be once collected.

He continued to walk forward, and Xie Que felt that it was getting more and more difficult.

Although they are getting closer and closer, the distance that seems to be less than a thousand meters is actually more than a hundred miles.

And calculated along the way, I'm afraid the distance is thousands of miles.

But there were bones scattered all along the way, and it was unknown how many people had died.

Xie Que was a little shocked.

I am afraid that the entire Zhou Dynasty is dead, and the piled up corpses cannot cover even one-tenth of this road.

But Xie Que decided to continue walking, after all, he had heard and seen.

They are all telling themselves to get closer and closer.

The heartbeat also became louder and louder, almost reaching that of ordinary people.

The light on the Buddha is not dazzling, but soft and warm.

At the same time, an inexplicable bloody evil aura also poured into Xie Que's heart.

Thick killing intent poured straight into his chest, and Xie Que found that the bones under his feet seemed to have become harder.

They didn't turn into ash when stepped on, but split into sections.

Xie Que picked up some of them and realized that the remains were like white jade, although they had lost their original essence and power.

But there also seems to be a sense of immortality that lasts through the years.

At this time, Xie Que was only a few kilometers away from the Buddha's corpse, and he became more and more cautious.

The sound of his heartbeat became louder in his ears, and the murderous aura coming from his feet became more intense.

The terrible death aura and murderous thoughts rushed straight into his soul, and even the Bodhi beads around his waist could not suppress his emotions.

As a last resort, Xie Que could only recite Buddhist scriptures such as the Jing Jing Sutra and the Requiem Sutra, and he felt a little better.

But he still felt that the killing intent was like a sharp edge, constantly cutting into his body and soul.

The death energy was entangled, and the golden blood kept counteracting it.

Xie Que felt that fortunately he still had plenty of energy and blood, so he wasn't afraid of anything going wrong.

Even if I stay here for thousands of years, I will not lose all my energy and blood.

Xie Que continued to move forward, but seemed to be walking with a little difficulty.

This is not because the body is greatly suppressed, but the death energy and murderous thoughts are getting stronger and stronger.

This murderous thought was not directed at Xie Que, but the pressure also came to him.

The death energy does not distinguish between targets, and seems to drag all the targets it touches into the underworld.

In the royal capital of Zhasa, even if millions of people died, 300,000 Zhou soldiers died.

Xie Que didn't even think that the death aura was so strong, not even one percent of it.

Continuing to move forward, Xie Que discovered that there was more than just death under his feet.

There is also a hint of Buddhist energy overflowing.

"These are..." Xie Que was surprised.

It was thought that a Buddha encountered a powerful enemy here and started a shocking battle.

Unexpectedly, the Buddha's light shone on the corpse beneath his feet.

Xie Que guessed that these corpses might also be Buddhist believers.

They fought for the Buddha, but were killed by the enemy here.

While Xie Que was groping around, he discovered that many rags were the corners of monks' robes, which also increased the possibility of his guess.

In a daze, a figure flashed across the corner of his eye again.

"What?" Xie Que turned his head quickly, but saw nothing.

In such absolute darkness, it was impossible for anything to appear in his eyes.

After having Bodhi beads, Xie Que figured it out immediately.

Even when he first came in, except for the golden crow figure in the sun.

I'm afraid all other figures are fake.

They do not exist in this dark and silent world.

But...it exists within one's own eyes!

Suddenly, two rays of light flashed in Xie Que's eyes.

Qi and blood surge up from the meridians to between the eyes.

Two lines of blood and tears suddenly flowed from his eyes, even though Xie Que's body was extremely powerful.

But places like the eyes are still inferior to other places. They are still relatively fragile and cannot withstand the high temperature and lethality of Qi and blood.

At the same time, a burst of black smoke came out of his eye sockets.

The black smoke was invisible, but Xie Que's spirit could detect it.

These seem to be some resentful spirits, transformed by the resentment, hatred, pain and various emotions of the dead.

They have no memory or any ability to think.

These evil spirits only know how to wander in this eternal night, destroying the consciousness and emotions of all living beings!

They were invisible and shadowless, inhabiting Xie Que's eyes.

However, Xie Que's golden energy and blood happened to be the most deadly weapon against these creatures.

If it were another Yang Shen True Lord, if his thoughts were not firm enough, I am afraid that he would soon be inhabited by these resentful spirits.

It turned into a walking corpse without any emotion or thinking ability, and finally turned into a skeleton.

Although Xie Que had expelled these resentful spirits, he was still a little frightened.

The weirdness here was far beyond my imagination.

If there are other things that cannot be noticed...

Thinking of this, Xie Que quickly used Qi and Blood Qi to penetrate his whole body.

After realizing that there were no other creatures, he breathed a sigh of relief.

But the death aura became thicker and thicker, making it difficult for him to move.

Every step you take is a huge test for yourself.

The Yin Shen seemed to be disturbed by the death energy and became a little bit confused.

The branches of the bodhi tree, which were always swaying, now drooped down and looked weak.

The leaves on it were also constantly interfered with by the dead air, causing a lot of them to fall off.

He took a few steps forward again, but at the same time, a big hand seemed to pull Xie Que's calf.

He couldn't help being frightened, and tried to break free, but suddenly he heard a "click".

There is no life on the earth, or the power of the soul, what is it?

Xie Que quickly turned his head to look, and saw that there was a slight fluorescent light on the ground.

A complete skeleton was sitting cross-legged on the ground, wearing a dim yellow monk's robe.

The skeleton exposed on his body was as white as jade, with a layer of dim Buddha light covering it.

The robes of this skeleton monk were spotless, giving Xie Que a vague sense of tranquility and serenity.

It seems that he did not die after a battle, but passed away naturally and returned to the west.

The skeleton of his left hand was broken, and the other half was pulled and broken by Xie Que, who was currently holding it in his hand.

Xie Que couldn't help being surprised and quickly put the half-bone-broken hand in the monk's arms.

"I've offended...Senior." Xie Que quickly clasped his hands together.

This monk who has been dead for who knows how many years can still maintain his skeleton as crystal clear as jade.

And what he struggled to free himself from was merely dislocating the joint rather than breaking it.

Xie Que thought about it and knew that he must have been a terrifying and powerful man during his lifetime.

The next moment, the skeleton monk actually opened his mouth to speak.

"Does God...still exist in the world?"

What the Boneless Monk said was Sanskrit.

However, Xie Que has long been proficient in this written language.

Sanskrit is rumored to be the writing of Buddha.

Every stroke, every word, is filled with great wisdom.

"God?" Xie Que was shocked, but saw that the skeleton monk did not have any malicious intentions, and what was left on his body was not even a single thought.

It's just a dead obsession.

"Who are you talking about...the god?" Xie Que asked cautiously.

"...Randeng..." The Boneless Monk was silent for a while, and then he spoke.

Xie Que took a deep breath and shook his head: "I have never heard of this god."

"It seems... He has become..." The Bone Monk's tone became deeper.

"Senior...what do you mean when you say success?" Xie Que felt that those gods and Buddhas were becoming more and more weird.

"It's done... that is, He has attained the Tao and has become a Buddha..." The Buddha's light on the skeleton of the white-bone monk became a little dimmer.

Xie Que couldn't help but feel a storm in his heart.

Could it be that the person mentioned by the Bone Sage is not the Buddha?

What is the difference between God and Buddha?

What is God? What is Buddha?

Xie Que couldn't help but think of what Ao Bing said when he first arrived at the ship in the sea of ​​desire.

"Only gods forgotten by the world can become immortals..."

What is the forgotten god of the world...

I have never heard of the name "Randeng".

No one has ever heard of the name "Randeng".

Even in the ancient books, there is no record of "burning lanterns".

So He was forgotten by the world.

Therefore, He became an immortal, and in Buddhist terms, He became a Buddha.

It seemed that between Ao Bing's words, Zhuang Zhou seemed to have become something.

Could it be that...Zhuang Zhou also became an immortal?

Xie Que pointed to the big sun and asked quickly: "Senior, is that a burning lamp?"

The Boneless Monk shook his head: "That's our senior brother...the Saint Walker under the Randen Seat...the Winged Immortal..."

"Feather Wing Immortal?..." Xie Que thought in his mind, but still shook his head. He had never heard of this name.

In this case, it seems that the great sun is not the Buddha.

Xie Que breathed a sigh of relief, but also a little disappointed.

The Boneless Monk continued:

"Elder brother has gathered the power of the Western Qisu...but it is still difficult to withstand the blow of Ran Deng..."
