Wandao long distance

Chapter 989 Guanyin

Tuchalidi is a fourth-rank demon king.

Now he is dying.

Another fourth-rank madman was chasing him, and he couldn't even defeat him!

This madman suddenly appeared from the city he controlled. He must have suddenly broken through from the fifth rank to the fourth rank. Generally speaking, this kind of character would become his food.

Tuzhali Emperor is a very powerful fourth-grade warrior. Logically speaking, there are very few wild fourth-grade warriors who can last longer than him. Even among the fourth-grade warriors who come from the great sects in the world, only one or twelve out of ten can fight him on equal terms.

However, when he used his magical powers, he was caught off guard by the opponent.

  Can't beat it!

How the hell could this happen? A wild rank 4 who had just broken through could chase him and kill him?

  What’s going on? Is this some powerful person’s reincarnation?

But no matter what Tuzhali Emperor thought, the fourth-rank warrior in front of him was obviously very powerful and had already chased him to another dream city.

However, Tuchariti was relieved when he arrived here.

Here, there is a third-grade master in charge. Even the strongest fourth-grade master can't beat the third-grade master, right? There was a genius called the Demon Prince many, many billions of years ago.

It is said that he is so powerful that he dominates the world. No one at the fourth level can defeat him, not even by surrounding and killing him.

But even such a person cannot fight against the third rank.

The higher the grade, the greater the gap.

The gap between the third and fourth grades is greater than the gap between the fourth and ninth grades.

Tuchariti felt relieved.

Sure enough, the third-grade master took action. This third-grade master here... he remembered that he was from the Five Elements Demon lineage, and was directly under the Yin Demon, and his name was Fu Zang.

Fu Zang made his move, demonic shadows surged, the world around him began to shake, and countless "whispers" began to appear in the ears of all living beings.

He utters hundreds of thousands of billions of nayutas of asamkhyeyas of words, such as unpleasant words, unwholesome words, unpleasant words, unlovable words, unkind and virtuous words, unwise words, unsuitable words for the saints, unappealing words for the saints, deeply disgusting words, and words that are unbearable to hear, and uses these words to insult and humiliate others.

However, at this time, a guardian deity suddenly descended.

His body is black and blue in a squatting position with his feet on a devil. He has two faces, one with two arms, holding a staff in both arms, and the other with an axe in his right hand and a skull bowl in his left hand.

This outfit is Mahakala.

Fu Zang immediately turned around and left.

Mahakala is a guardian deity, and his killing power is extremely great among the three levels, and even ordinary three-level deities find it difficult to resist him.

This dream city was shattered.

Tuchariti was also destroyed in an instant.

At this time, the shadow of the Yin Demon appeared in the sky.

Mahakala immediately prepared to run away just like Fuzang.

However, Li Qi's Dharma body also appeared here.

So, Yin Mo just took a look and left. He was not prepared to have a head-on confrontation with Li Qi, at least not now.

That was how it ended. A large dream city with a third-grade master was destroyed.

Mahakala bowed to Li Qi and said, "Greetings."

Li Qi looked at Mahakala in front of him and couldn't help but feel emotional.

It's not just a difference in status, but also a difference in the impression of Mahakala.

The Mahakala he met at that time was a vicious guardian god, powerful, vicious and domineering. Moreover, Li Qi had once obtained the devil blood from him, so he had a connection with him.

But after the Buddha's death...

It is said that a long time ago, when the Buddha had just entered Nirvana, when the enemy's army was about to destroy the temple protected by Mahakala, all the panditas and monks fled, and Mahakala also fled to the deep forest with a sugarcane stick on his shoulder.

At that time, a monk asked: "Dharmapala, you are the guardian deity appointed by Vajradhara and worshipped by the monks at all times. You can protect the Dharma and punish those who destroy the Dharma. Now that such a big thing has happened, how can you flee in such a hurry?"

At that time, Mahakala replied: "The karma has matured, and there is nothing I can do. When the time is right, I will naturally avenge you."

After saying that he ran away.

Li Qi heard that not long after, Mahakala took action and killed the humane general who burned down the Buddhist temple. He personally ended the lives of those who burned down the Nalanda Temple and threw their bodies in front of the pandits and said: "Peel off their skin and make a statue that is exactly the same as me. This statue is indistinguishable from me."

How to say it, Li Qi was a little overwhelmed.

When encountering an opponent stronger than him, Mahakala would flee in panic, but when the time is right, he would brutally take revenge on mortals. This is really ungentlemanly of him.

Perhaps it is precisely because of the existence of such guardian gods, such arhats and even great bodhisattvas that the Tathagata finally chose to perish.

"Then let's continue." Li Qi nodded slightly and said to Mahakala.

Even though that is said, Mahakala is indeed an expert in slaying demons, so it would be fine to use him now.

In addition to Mahakala, the 'Kai Dian' is also functioning normally.

The person who had broken through to the fourth level and hunted down Tuzheli Emperor was from Qidian.

Just after the dream city was destroyed, a large group of people floated out of the void. These were the people summoned by Li Qi. They immediately started to work and carried out rescue work in an orderly manner.

In addition, other places in the universe are also constantly beginning to spread "Dharma" again.

However, all these Buddhist teachings have been selected. Li Qi has no intention of re-creating Buddhism, as that would be meaningless. What he spreads are techniques, practices and spells to resist evil thoughts. As for the Buddhist ideas, he does not mention a single word about them.

Qi Dian’s resources were fully demonstrated at this moment.

A large number of manpower, each carrying abundant resources, followed Li Qi's arrangements and slowly eliminated the traces of the Demonic Dream City in this universe.

The demon-killing operation is progressing slowly, and I think it will be soon for the demons to react.

But Li Qi was also prepared.

Time passed little by little, and soon about fifteen years had passed.

Fifteen years is indeed a very short period of time, and it almost passes in the blink of an eye for a second-grade cultivator.

After such a short period of time, Maudgalyayana also brought good news to Li Qi.

He contacted Avalokitesvara, the attendant Bodhisattva of Amitabha Buddha.

And Guanyin Bodhisattva also agreed to meet Li Qi, which made Li Qi very happy. He almost immediately put down what he was doing and rushed over.

On the way, he was also constantly learning about Guanyin Bodhisattva so that he could communicate well with the other party, hoping to reach an agreement to destroy the demon.

  Why is Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva named Avalokitesvara?

If there are countless hundreds of thousands of millions of living beings who suffer from various troubles and hear of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva and call his name with one heart, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva will immediately hear their voices and they will all be liberated. Therefore, he is called "Avalokitesvara".

This is his great magical power. Avalokitesvara can see and hear the bright lights of all directions, throughout the ten realms.

The Buddhist verse says: The wonderful voice of Avalokitesvara, the Sanskrit voice and the sound of the ocean tide, is superior to the sounds of the world. Therefore, you should always remember her.

Guanyin Bodhisattva also has supernatural powers and is good at using his great supernatural powers to save the world. That is why people often chant his name because he can hear every time they chant.

The compassionate Bodhisattva will immediately hear the voice of all sentient beings in distress and go to save them as long as they recite his name.

This is because Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva once made a great vow that if any living being suffers from all kinds of suffering and terror, if he can remember himself and chant the name of Avalokitesvara, he will be freed from all such suffering and trouble.

Therefore, Amitabha and Guanyin Bodhisattva are the most famous "Buddha's names". Monks like to recite them whenever they have time, and even ordinary people like to recite them.

Just like Amitabha Buddha, people chant his name only to seek his protection.

The monks’ favorites were Buddhas and Bodhisattvas with supernatural powers, because they could get benefits just by chanting their names, so their names became widely praised.

But this...is this really what the Buddha Tathagata wants?

The more Li Qi understood Buddhism, the more he felt the situation faced by the Buddha Tathagata.

Imagine…

When a person says "Buddha", is he thinking of the Tathagata or "himself"?

If when he says "Buddha", he is thinking of the Tathagata, then Buddhism is no longer Buddhism, and all the Buddhist teachings obtained by the Tathagata will become worldly shackles.

Buddhism is not supernatural power.

Buddhism pursues "enlightenment", and "Buddha" means the enlightened one.

Why can’t an enlightened person be himself, instead of being a person with great supernatural powers?

When all sentient beings believe that others are the enlightened ones, others are the "Buddhas", then... the Buddha should indeed perish.

Li Qi thought about these things and finally arrived at the current temple of Guanyin Bodhisattva.

All I saw was countless precious lights, pouring down on the tiny particles of dust in the ten directions.

The trees, forests and ponds all played the Dharma Sound, and their lights intertwined like a jeweled silk net. All the people obtained something unprecedented, and all attained the Vajra Samadhi. At that moment, the sky rained lotus flowers made of a hundred treasures, in colors of blue, yellow, red, and white, intertwined and mixed together. The sky in all directions turned into the color of the seven treasures. The tiny lands in the ten directions were seen to merge into one world, and Sanskrit chants were sung.

Li Qi looked around and then saw Guanyin Bodhisattva in front of him.

He sits cross-legged, with a plump and dignified appearance, a gentle and elegant demeanor, wearing a jeweled crown on his head and a celestial robe on his body. He sits on a cattail leaf seat and a lotus stamen, with his hands clasped in front of his chest, and twenty hands raised on each side. In the forty raised hands, he holds instruments such as the sun, the moon, the pure bottle, the vajra, and the Qiankun belt.

Li Qi looked carefully at the Guanyin Bodhisattva in front of him.

Then he sighed and said, "So... Bodhisattvas are like this too."

The reason for this sigh is that Li Qi clearly saw the infinite "response body" of Guanyin Bodhisattva.

The Supreme Avalokitesvara, manifested through the Samadhi of Universal Manifestation of Physical Bodies, possesses thirty-three kinds of bodies.

Also known as the 'Thirty-three Guanyin'.

The thirty-three Avalokitesvaras do not represent various manifestations of their images, but different forms of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva himself. Thirty-three is actually a classification of imaginary numbers, and in fact there are far more than thirty-three bodies.

Moreover, these "bodies" are also different. Just to count them, there are the body of the Śrāvaka, the body of the Brahma king, the body of the self-reliant god, the body of the general, the body of the Vaiśravaṇa, the body of the small king, the body of the elder, the body of the householder, the body of the Upasaka, the body of the boy, the body of the girl, the body of the god, the body of the dragon, the body of the Yaksha, the body of the Gandharva, the body of the Asura, the body of the Garuda, the body of the Kinnara, the body of the Mahoraga, the body of the Vajrapani, the body of the animal, and so on.

This is not a technique of transformation, but a real "body". These different bodies are actually "independent".

Completely independent, all minds exist alone, there is no entity at all, all physiognomy is her entity.

This is actually very similar to Li Qi's appearance.

Li Qi is the same now.

His countless fragments, like the '33 bodies' of Guanyin, all exist independently, and when they are combined, they are still independent.

How should I put it...it would be hard for ordinary people to understand.

For mortals, a person's body is a unified whole, so the soul should also be unified.

However, for people with great supernatural powers like Li Qi and Guanyin, their minds and souls are never unified, and they may not even have "commonalities".

Ordinary people often observe the world and themselves, especially themselves, through the colored glasses of very naive, simplified, and lying formulas.

But in fact, even ordinary people are not like this.

Because on the surface, all people seem to have an innate and inevitable need. They must imagine themselves as a whole so that they can maintain their own consistent existence and not have any shakes such as "I am me".

Although this enthusiasm is often shaken by huge shocks, it always recovers as before.

It's like a person standing on the sky tower with his companions, staring into the abyss below. At a certain moment, deep in his heart, he discovers that he has the feelings, ability and possibility of a murderer.

He would want to push his companions down, or jump down himself.

But this thought only lasted for a moment, the feeling of splitting only lasted for a moment, and he soon became a whole again, a rational person, turned back into his own body, and controlled his own behavior.

Few mortals realize that they are a combination of multiple qualities, and it is difficult for them to get rid of the illusion of unity.

They are unable to realize that they are actually made up of many selves.

If they consciously sense this separation, they might be locked up and diagnosed with schizophrenia to prevent them from doing bad things.

But no one is a pure entity, not even the most innocent and naive person. Each "I" is a very complex world, a small starry sky, a chaotic kingdom composed of countless disordered forms, stages and conditions, heredity and possibilities.

Each person strives to see this chaotic kingdom as a single whole, and the tone in which he speaks of himself gives the illusion that the self is simple, fixed, and clearly defined.

However, once we acknowledge that consciousness and the universe itself are chaos…

For example, Li Qi and Guanyin Bodhisattva, they have realized the complexity of themselves and even the entire universe.

The universe is never describable in a simple, single thing, just as they themselves are never describable in a simple, single thing.

"I never thought that Guanyin Bodhisattva would have the nature of Taiyi." Li Qi looked at Guanyin Bodhisattva and said so.

Guanyin Bodhisattva also responded: "Witches... believe that the world is contradictory, which is rare."
