I am a monster in both worlds

Chapter 372: The origin of Mara, is Venerable Kasyapa an old person?

On Lingshan Mountain, in the Great Leiyin Temple.

Yi Bai walked into it step by step. He saw various pistil palaces and pearl palaces. There were Arhats guarding in front of the Treasure Pavilion and Zhen Tower. In front of the Xiaguang Heavenly King Hall, a Buddhist Heavenly King stood up and looked around. In front of the Dharma Protector Hall, there was even more purple light shining. See the Buddha invisibly.

Buddhism is like facing a formidable enemy.

I'm afraid he still hasn't recovered from the internal fighting, and he is always on guard against the Buddhist Mara.

It was a completely different scene than when he first came.

I recall that when he first came to Lingshan and entered Daleiyin Temple, there was a peaceful atmosphere, with birds singing and flowers fragrant.

Yi Bai shook his head helplessly.

He strode towards the main hall.

Not long after he left, he saw a bhikshuni approaching.

Hear this.

"The words of the Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva are wrong. It does not mean that the Buddha's Dharma is boundless in order to improve one's attainment status. I observe that the Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva's spiritual path is in the three realms of Buddha and demon. These abilities are not low."

The bhikshuni finally calmed down and realized that the deity in front of her was really kind and compassionate.

"Yes, Bodhisattva."

Yi Bai felt ashamed that he did not understand Buddhism, so how could he have the face to steal a higher status from Buddhism.

"Okay, okay! Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva, however, this level of fruition is low for you, and you should rise to a higher level."

The innate divine body that became the body of the future is actually so strong.

At a glance, he saw the Buddha sitting on the lotus throne, looking towards him, as if waiting for him.

"The Buddha is joking, what qualifications do I have to ascend to the enlightenment status?"

After entering the treasure hall.

"If the Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva is not qualified, then who is?"

"Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva, the Buddha knows that you are coming and has been waiting in the treasure hall. Please come with me."

He could see Yi Bai's actions before entering the palace.

……

The bhikshuni listened to the order and led Yi Bai to the Mahavira Hall.

Buddha looked at Yi Bai up and down and was surprised by his aura. He could see how strong Yi Bai was at this moment.

"Lord Buddha, my Dharma...has not been studied thoroughly for a long time."

His body-building method had been replaced by the Demonic Immortal Method as early as when he developed the Demonic Immortal Method.

Buddha said with a smile.

She knew that the person in front of her was said to be the Buddhist Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva, but in fact he was the Xuan Tan Hai Hui Wei Ling Tian Zun, and he was an evil god with a reputation for evil.

It has been a long time since he used Buddhism.

The bhikshuni performed a great ceremony and was extremely pious.

"Old Buddha, this is not a good thing to say. When I came here, there was only the Buddha's Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva, but there was no heavenly deity."

Buddha said with a smile.

At least in the eyes of the Xizhou demon, he is an evil god.

At this point, it is difficult to improve simply by practicing one method.

The bhikshuni was shocked and wanted to kneel down to apologize.

It doesn't take a while.

Yi Bai smiled helplessly and saw the bhikshuni's thoughts at a glance. He waved his hand and said.

Yi Bai was brought to the Mahavira Hall by a bhikshuni.

Even if Yi Bai doesn't do anything, he feels nothing, but if he does it, and arranges his clothes very seriously, and gives him greater respect, he will naturally feel happy.

After finishing tidying up his clothes, he walked into the palace.

"Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva, forgive me for being rude!"

"Let's go, take me to the treasure hall, don't keep the Buddha waiting for too long."

Yi Bai said with a smile.

Yi Bai stopped in front of the Mahavira Hall, straightened his clothes, and showed respect to the Buddha.

When he walked to the main hall, he could smell the fragrance coming to his face, and he could faintly hear the sound of chanting sutras, which made the listeners feel in awe.

"Don't be afraid of me, I'm not a vicious god."

Yi Bai said softly.

However, Yi Bai gently lifted it up, smiled and shook his head, indicating that it didn't care, so that the bhikshuni could rest assured.

"Tianzun, long time no see, I miss you so much."

Yi Bai was stunned for a long time and didn't come back to his senses. Is this okay?

Anyway, the Buddha will try to improve his attainment status no matter what. Whether he is proficient in Buddhism or not is another matter.

"Lord Buddha, let's put this matter aside for now."

"I'm here because of the internal fighting in Buddhism."

Yi Bai sighed and said.

He really didn't dare to let Tathagata Buddha continue talking. If he really continued to talk, his status would really be improved.

As it continues to rise, maybe he will become a Buddha.

Yi Bai couldn't imagine how he would occupy a high position in Buddhism.

"Infighting... Alas, this is my fault for not noticing. If I hadn't noticed, this kind of chaos would not have happened. But this is understandable."

The Western Buddha sighed deeply and said.

"Lord Buddha, I know about Buddhism. That Mara was born when Venerable Kassapa was cleaning up Buddhism. However, I don't know the specific origin of that Mara. I wonder if Lord Buddha can tell him?"

Yi Bai wanted to know the specific information about Na Mo Luo.

If that Mara were simple, he probably wouldn't have caused such a big trouble.

With the strength of many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Buddhism, any weakness of Mara will be quickly suppressed.

As far as Yi Bai knows, there are definitely no less than three innate saints known to Buddhism, such as Buddha, Guanyin of the South China Sea, and Randen Ancient Buddha. In addition to these three, Buddhism must have other innate saints.

It is easy to imagine how difficult it is to deal with Mara, who is so powerful that even Buddhists cannot defeat him.

"This, this Mara, is related to me."

Buddha sighed.

"What does it have to do with Buddha?"

Yi Bai asked.

"The Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva does not know something. I was an innate divine being back then, but my qi in the world of mortals has not yet expired, and I still have fate to fall into the human world. Therefore, I threw myself into reincarnation to end the world of mortals."

"In one of my lifetimes, I practiced hard. I saw an eagle attack a white dove on the road and took its life. I couldn't bear it, so I rescued the white dove. I didn't expect that the eagle had a fierce temperament and had turned into a monster. Why did it ask me I couldn't bear to meddle in other people's business, but the eagle said, life and death matter, and it eats white doves to survive. "

"I felt ashamed when I heard it, but I couldn't bear to let the dove go, so I took a scale and put the dove aside. I cut off its flesh myself and put it on the other side. When the scale was equal, I exchanged my flesh for the white dove. Dove’s fate…”

The old Buddha sighed quietly.

"Is that Mo Luo related to this matter?"

Yi Bai narrowed his eyes.

He was not surprised at all by what the Buddha said. He had heard what the Buddha said before.

Cut the meat and feed it to the eagle.

This kind of story was familiar to him, but he didn't know what it had to do with Mara.

Could it be that Mara, the dove, or the eagle?

"That Mara is the eagle from back then. When I returned to Buddhism, I took that eagle with me and brought it into Buddhism."

The old Buddha shook his head and sighed again.

"Then even if Ying'er becomes a demon, he won't be so difficult to deal with, right?"

Yi Bai hesitated for a long time before speaking.

"The eagle ate my flesh and blood, and then listened to Buddhism for many years and learned a lot of skills. Venerable Kasyapa cleaned up the Buddhist door, which was counterproductive and caused luck to counterattack. The eagle emerged and became innate and divine with the help of Buddha's luck. With my flesh and blood, and my demon heart, I became a powerful innate saint."

Buddha said so.

Hear this.

Yi Bai was stunned for a while before finally reacting. He really didn't expect that this Mo Luo had such an origin. After all, this Mara is also an acquired innate divine being.

It's just that this acquired innate holiness has a very strange growth experience.

It was actually made by eating the flesh and blood of Buddha and relying on the devil's mind and Buddha's luck to fight back.

But I have to say that this Mara is quite capable.

To be able to become an innate saint, it almost takes the time, place, people, and various other important factors. If any one factor fails, this Mara will not be able to become an innate saint, let alone start an internal fight within Buddhism.

"So that's what it is."

"With the power of the Buddha and the many positions of Buddhism, how could he not be able to defeat a mere Mara?"

Yi Bai asked.

"Mara is gaining momentum. If you want to capture him, you have to defeat him."

Buddha sighed softly, seeming to find it difficult.

"How can that be done?"

Yi Bai was confused, he had never fought with the innate saint.

Of course, except for the innate demon.

After all, the innate demon took shape not long ago, and its strength is not as powerful as the true innate god.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to fight against the innate demon.

"Mara has become powerful and has formed its own sect of Buddhism. It is not easy to exterminate it. The first thing to do is to destroy its Buddhism. But its Buddhism was born out of me, so how can it be exterminated so easily."

Buddha said.

"Lord Buddha, is that impossible?"

Without using force, Yi Bai had no other way to deal with the internal fighting among Buddhists.

"It's difficult. The Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva has the will, but there are still ways. It just takes a long time to carry out."

Buddha shook his head and said.

"What method?"

Yi Bai asked.

If he could help, he would still help.

"First try to suppress the growth of Mara as much as possible, and then wait for the opportunity to write a letter to Your Majesty to preach Buddhism to the world. When Buddhism is prosperous, we can suppress that Mara and defeat him in one fell swoop."

Buddha said very calmly.

"The Buddha actually has a solution, so I wonder if I might be able to help?"

Yi Bai asked patiently.

"I can certainly help you. If you can, Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva, why don't you go with me, the Buddha and Bodhisattva in my Buddhist sect, to meet that Mara?"

Buddha said.

"The Buddha said that Mara cannot be defeated by force. If I go, how can I defeat Mara?"

Yi Bai was puzzled.

Didn't I just say that relying on force is useless? To deal with the innate sanctity and to deal with this Mara, other methods are needed. If this is the case, why should he be asked to deal with Mara?

Hear this.

However, the Buddha stood up from the lotus seat and walked a few steps. During his steps, there was fragrance everywhere, which made people feel relaxed and happy.

"Force cannot solve Mara, let alone Mara's True Buddha Temple, but it can add obstacles to Mara."

Buddha walked not far away from Yi Bai, smiled and said.

When Yi Bai heard this, he understood immediately.

This Mara cannot be eliminated by force, but it can make this Mara unhappy and uncomfortable.

"Mr. Buddha, I understand. I'm going to go to the True Buddhist Temple right now."

Yi Bai is happy to cooperate with Tathagata Buddha.

"Wait for now, wait for now!"

The old Buddha stepped forward quickly and stopped Yi Bai who was about to walk out, so that he would not make the effort to run to the Zhenfo Temple.

After stopping Yi Bai, he continued.

"Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva, don't be anxious. Just listen to what I have to say. If you, Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva, go to that place of Mara, be sure not to kill those Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Although those Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are bad, they are indispensable to Buddhism. You can injure, but you can’t kill.”

Buddha warned.

"how so?"

Yi Bai asked.

"What the Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva doesn't know is that those disciples who rebelled against the sect and left the sect also belong to Buddhism. If they are killed, they will be like the emperor of Shu in ancient times who killed monsters. There is a fear that something unexpected will happen. This cannot be done. Therefore, we cannot kill them. Those traitors."

Buddha explained.

When Yi Bai heard this, he suddenly realized, but he couldn't help but feel that the ancient Shu emperor was really powerful.

He did something earth-shattering and cut off the demon's path. He tried to make the demon gradually perish and not be able to regenerate, but he was forced to resort to cannibalism.

This move shocked everyone inside and outside the Three Realms, the gods in heaven, the states in the lower realms, and the underworld gods, and they dared not get involved from now on.

But after all, this is the only thing that happened. Most of the gods and gods are quite afraid of this, but it is inevitable that some gods and gods don't care.

But fortunately, from now on, it is absolutely impossible for anyone else inside and outside the Three Realms to not care about this matter.

Just because Buddhism also dealt with this matter.

"Lord Buddha, I understand."

Yi Bai felt helpless, but nodded to show his understanding.

"In this case, we will bother the Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva. The Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva can go to the Great Thunder Sound Temple for a walk. I will arrange some people to go with you to capture the formation for you."

Buddha said.

"Search for me? Who do you want to call me?"

Yi Bai was curious, he was an innate saint, so if he wanted to capture the formation for him, he must be an innate saint no matter what.

"It's Master Guanshiyin."

Buddha said with a smile.

"It turns out to be Master Guanyin. If Master Guanyin raids the formation, I will have nothing to worry about."

Yi Bai did not refuse the Buddha's kindness.

"The Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva is waiting at the Great Leiyin Temple. Master Guanshiyin will arrive soon. It is said that there is an old Bodhisattva in the Great Leiyin Temple, and we can meet him."

Buddha laughed.

Yi Bai didn't even understand what he said.

Does he have any old friends in Daleiyin Temple?

"Old Buddha, who is the old man?"

"Venerable Kasyapa."

"When did Venerable Kassapa and I have an old relationship?"

"Great Enlightenment Bodhisattva, please go and meet with Venerable Kassapa. Venerable Kassapa is currently at the Dharma Protector Hall of Great Thunder Sound Temple."

The Buddha didn't expose it, he just smiled and said this.

Yi Bai was confused. Why didn't he remember that he knew the Venerable Kassapa? But he heard the Buddha's words and didn't say much. He got up and walked to the palace. He wanted to see the Venerable Kassapa whom the Buddha said. He is an old person, so what is going on?

……

Yi Bai walked out of the Main Hall and headed all the way to the Dharma Protector Hall. He couldn't wait to know what happened to what the Buddha said that he and the Venerable Kassapa were old people.

He knew what the Buddha and the Elder were capable of. There were only a few people inside and outside the Three Realms who could beat the Buddha and the Elder. Since the Buddha and the Elder said it, there must be a reason.

Yibai moved forward quickly.

The Dharma Protector Hall is easy to recognize.

In Daleiyin Temple, the place where the purple energy shines is the Dharma Protector Hall.

In a short time, Yi Bai passed through the palaces and arrived not far from the Dharma Protector Hall.

Not far from the Dharma Protector Hall, he saw one of the monks.

This monk's face is plain, his Buddhist teachings are restrained, and he doesn't seem to have anything out of the ordinary.

But when Yi Bai saw this, his eyes couldn't help but condense...
