Chapter 655: Breaking the Darkness and Bringing Light
"Could it be that physical contact is really necessary to extinguish the fire?"
Xie Que couldn't help but feel hesitant in his heart.
The bonfire in front of me looked particularly bright under the cover of darkness.
And its strange aura made Xie Que feel an inexplicable resistance.
This makes it difficult for him to take action. Who knows if this monk has any other conspiracy?
But now, the most urgent thing for Xie Que at this moment is how to get rid of the disturbing and strange feeling in his body.
This strangeness was like a poisonous snake that tightly bound him, making him feel even more tormented.
Faced with this dilemma, he seemed to have no choice but to follow the path pointed out by the monk.
Thinking of this, Xie Que's eyes gradually became firm,
He stared at the flickering fire, as if it was about to burn everything.
The inner struggle and hesitation turned into determination and determination at this moment.
He began to mobilize the Dragon and Snake World Sutra in his body, and warm breath circulated in his body.
Even under the strange shroud of the bonfire, Xie Que still maintained a rare sobriety.
His eyes penetrated through the bonfire, and everything in his ears was completely silent.
But this flame swallowed up all prying eyes in endless chaos, making it impossible for him to see anything.
The few slender black dry coals on the ground could not withstand such burning, but the bonfire continued to burn.
But this fire neither increases nor decreases, as if it is not something that should be in the human world.
Xie Que slowly withdrew his gaze and took a step forward.
At the same time, his figure also lengthened, clearly reflected on the mottled walls of the temple.
At this moment, a monk with a darker complexion quietly appeared in Xie Que's shadow.
His face was calm, his hands slowly turned the rosary beads in his hands, and he chanted extremely weird scriptures in a low voice.
"You mean," Xie Que's voice was low and powerful, as if every word contained endless weight.
"As long as I come into contact with this flame, can I solve this trouble?"
The monk nodded slightly: "Yes, after absorbing the Buddha's fire... your problems will not only be solved, but it will also help me achieve nirvana."
Buddha fire? Xie Que recited this name silently in his heart.
Xie Que now strongly suspected that this monk might be trying to lure him into a trap.
However, despite his doubts, he had to admit,
He has reached the end of his rope and has no choice.
There is no other option but to commit suicide and wait for the resurrection of Judeo Tulu.
The weirdness contained in this bonfire is difficult for even a strong man like him who has understood the path of cause and effect to pry into its secrets.
The weirdness of this bonfire transcends the conventions of the world and points directly to a deeper and more elusive level.
Perhaps only those beings who have transcended the level can reveal its true face.
Xie Que's thoughts drifted involuntarily to the past Buddha.
The transcendent Buddha of the past... the strange bonfire...
What kind of connection is hidden between the two?
Xie Que didn't know, but he still touched the bonfire with his finger.
When he really got close to the flame, the flame had no temperature at all, so Xie Que didn't feel hot.
It burned quietly, as if isolated from everything in the world, and not even the tiniest warmth was transmitted.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Xie Que would have almost doubted whether this bonfire really existed in this world.
As Xie Que slowly approached the bonfire, his figure began to flicker in the light of the fire.
At the same time, the entire bonfire seemed to respond to his approach,
The fire swayed violently, like a candle swaying in the wind.
And the figure of the monk also appeared and disappeared in the interlacing of light and shadow.
The moment Xie Que's fingertips lightly touched the flame, the whole world seemed to be touched by an invisible force.
The entire Buddhist world began to fade in an indescribable way, like a faded picture, gradually losing its original color and vitality.
The scene in front of Xie Que was quickly shrouded in a hazy gray fog.
At this moment, a long and deep sigh sounded in Xie Que's ears,
That voice seemed to have traveled through hundreds of millions of years, carrying endless vicissitudes and relief.
Along with this sigh, an inexplicable surge poured into Xie Que's mind.
Then, a piece of Buddhism came into Xie Que's mind.
"Breaking the darkness and enlightening the light..."
"From the Buddhist scripture "The Dharani Sutra of Burning Lamps Illuminating..."
"At that time, the ancient Buddha Deng Deng appeared in the Tibetan Realm of Emptiness a great luminous body before immeasurable kalpas, illuminating the three worlds in the ten directions. The Buddha told all the gods, humans and non-human beings: 'I am now preaching a method to break the dark eyes. This method can Destroy all ignorance and reveal the truth as it really is.'"
"Then the Buddha recited Dharani and said: 'Anuttara Samyak Sambodhi, the lamp is burning to illuminate the whole world, breaking the darkness and enlightening the light, the eyes of wisdom are opened, and ignorance is destroyed by itself.'"
"When all sentient beings hear this Dharani, their mind's eyes will suddenly open and they will see their true nature. The light will shine everywhere, without any hindrance or obstruction. This method is called "breaking the darkness and enlightening the mind's eyes". It can enable all living beings to escape from darkness and see their true nature and become Buddhas."
Suddenly, Xie Que's Bodhi Dharma Eye suddenly appeared between his eyebrows.
With the opening of Dharma Eye, a bright lamp seems to be born from nothingness.
In an instant, he fell into Xie Que's Dharma Eyes and became one with him.
At the same time, the gray fog shrouding Xie Que's eye masks was instantly dispelled.
The originally dark and lifeless Buddhist world became brighter in his eyes.
Xie Que raised his head and looked up at the sky, only to feel that his vision suddenly became brighter.
Many things that were vague and out of reach now become clear and discernible.
Originally, I could only see the Buddha Realm within three feet, but now I can see it as far as a hundred feet away.
And the farther distance, although still shrouded in a light layer of mist, is no longer completely hazy and unknown.
Xie Que took a deep breath and felt the subtle changes taking place in his body.
He knew that this bonfire could never be that simple.
If this bonfire brought only such a peerless magical power,
Then I am afraid that it has already been snatched by countless powerful people and has become a treasure coveted by everyone.
How could he still be left intact to himself after such a long time?
As Xie Que looked inside, his body suddenly shook.
He thought that the so-called "breaking the darkness and enlightening the mind's eye" was just a magical power that made his vision clearer and his vision more far-sighted.
However, at this moment, he was surprised to find that he could actually peek inside his body, where lines of strange text were floating.
Xie Que once obtained Jingxuan's memory and had a certain understanding of ancient Sanskrit and other ancient texts.
So he could barely make out the rough outlines of the words.
He soon realized that these words were far older and more complex than ancient Sanskrit, and they were words that Xie Que had never seen with his own eyes.
Among them, there is actually the law of the great road.
You must know that ordinary language and words often cannot fully capture the charm of the avenue.
They can only describe and explain certain aspects of the Avenue to a certain extent.
But the words in front of me are completely different. They can directly record the rhyme of Taoism.
Xie Que's vision was extremely clear at this moment.
He clearly saw that the content recorded in these words was an exhaustive description of his body functions.
Each character seems to contain endless information. They are arranged and combined to form columns of detailed data, which accurately reflects every detail of one's body.
What shocked Xie Que even more was that these words not only described his body functions, but also
Even the influence of various Taoist rhymes that he had understood on the body were directly demonstrated.
For example, when he peered into his own heart, he could clearly see the intertwining rules of nature, blood, life, and other great principles.
These words not only point out the degree of strengthening of the body after each Tao rhyme is understood,
Their respective proportions and their specific uses are also listed in detail.
This gave Xie Que a deeper understanding of his body, as he seemed to be able to clearly see the role of each Taoist rhyme in his body.
In addition, these texts also describe Xie Que's muscle content, flexibility, firmness, etc. in detail.
Every piece of data was extremely accurate, giving him a more comprehensive understanding of his physical condition.
"this……"
Xie Que couldn't help but take a deep breath, feeling unspeakable shock in his heart.
For warriors, this magical power is undoubtedly a priceless treasure.
Once possessing this magical power, a warrior can quickly gain insight into the direction of his or her own practice.
Even if you encounter bottlenecks or misunderstandings, you can correct them in time.
Make sure you are always on the right path.
Xie Que took a deep breath again to calm down his mood.
Then he began to carefully search for traces of the "bonfire" between his body and soul.
After a long search, he finally found its location.
But its location made Xie Que feel a little scared. That is where the true spirit is.
The true spirit can be said to be the source of a person.
As long as the true spirit still exists, it means that the fire of life has not been extinguished. Even if the physical body and soul are destroyed, there is still the possibility of resurrection.
For a strong person in any realm, the true spirit is a vital existence.
Once the true spirit dies, it means that the soul will be scattered.
Not even Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva can undo it.
After all, the true spirit falling into the underworld is just equivalent to starting over.
After a long period of observation and perception, Xie Que did not find any discomfort in himself, and the uneasiness in his heart gradually dissipated.
Moreover, his energy, blood and soul no longer flow away.
"That monk really didn't lie to me..."
Xie Que murmured to himself, his eyes fixed on the flame in the true spirit and the indifferent death trial diagram.
If it wasn't a good thing, the Death Judgment Diagram should have had some effect long ago.
Unless the person of this fire is even more advanced than the Death Judgment Diagram in his mind.
But Xie Que can be sure that even if it is a transcendent level of power,
It is also impossible to create something as heaven-defying as the Death Judgment Diagram.
After all, many of its functions are already beyond the laws of the Great Dao, and one can just regard the rules of heaven and earth as nothing.
Therefore, even if the Buddha in the past was transcendent and escaped from his bonfire, he should not have such a high status.
Xie Que thought secretly in his heart and recalled what the monk just said.
This flame was given the name "Buddha Fire", apparently having a connection with the Buddhas.
And the oldest and most transcendent one is undoubtedly the "burning lamp" of the past Buddha.
He carefully tried to touch the Buddha's fire, but found that it was like a still lake, calm and unaffected by the outside world.
No matter how Xie Que moved it, even if he put the death trial urn on it to bake, the Buddha fire still maintained its original posture and remained unmoved.
Xie Que exhaled helplessly, and finally gave up the idea of continuing to fiddle with the Buddha's fire.
He knew very well that perhaps he could only wait until one day in the future.
Only then will you have the opportunity to truly uncover the Buddha's fire and understand its origin and function.
Just when Xie Que was about to pack up his mood and continue on the road ahead,
A familiar yet slightly surprised voice suddenly sounded in his ears:
"Huh?"
"You are really fearless...Have you actually become a fire bearer?"
Xie Que looked up and saw Jiachanyan looking at him with a smile.
He continued: "Since you have become a fire bearer, you are even less likely to be a future person."
As he spoke, his tone became gentle: "So how about joining us and stopping time and space in the eternal present?"
Xie Que frowned: "What do you mean?"
Kachanyan smiled: "You will understand later."
"Now, you might as well consider whether you want to join us."
Xie Que did not act rashly. After all, in this strange Buddhist world,
After experiencing the Buddha Fire incident, he did not dare to take action at will.
He did not directly respond to Kachanyan's question, but asked in a probing tone:
"Do you know what Buddha Fire is?"
Hearing this, Kachanyan raised a faint smile on his lips.
"Of course I know." He said softly, with a hint of doubt in his tone.
"Buddha fire... that is the past time and space, and it is also the residue of the failure of transcendence."
Kachanyan's words were like a bolt of lightning, causing Xie Que to be startled and asked in disbelief: "Transcendence failed? You mean, the Buddha failed to transcend in the past?"
Jiachanyan looked at Xie Que with a trace of compassion in his smile.
"You don't naively think that the current changes in the Buddhist world are just because of the invasion of void, right? Although I have lost the memory of the past Buddha, I can tell you with certainty that He... did fail!"
His words are full of regret for the past and firm belief in the present.
"Only my Buddha can truly enlighten the present, shine brightly in the present, and become the eternal present!"
After Xie Que heard this, he immediately knew that Jiachanyan might be talking nonsense.
He also had his memory erased by the transcendent Buddha of the past,
But his belief in "now" made him deny it.
However, Jiachanyan's words made Xie Que think about it. Is this Buddha Fire the past time and space?
Kaccanyana flew away immediately. Before leaving, he also said:
"If you are interested in Buddha Fire, you might as well collect more Buddha Fire... Maybe you can find the answer you want." (End of Chapter)
