The ancestor of all monsters in Shushan

Chapter 741: More Wonderful Than Paradise

When Zen Master Zunsheng ascended to heaven, he left behind three relics.

Zen Master Tianmeng kept one for himself and gave the other two to Zen Master Baimei, who then gave them all to Li Ning.

Among them, the relic that sealed Princess Honghua has been obtained by Zhu Youmu and is now in the hands of Xin Rushen Ni. The other relic, which is related to the opportunity for Yin Yang Sou to become a god, was swallowed by Li Ning.

Zhu Youmu killed Li Ning and sealed his soul in the rock with the big sandalwood Buddha light. Xun Lan calculated that Li Ning was in trouble, so she specially asked Li Yingqiong and Zhou Qingyun to rescue him.

Li Ning used the other relic to reshape an incarnation, rejected his daughter's good intention to take him to Mount Emei, and continued to practice asceticism in the mountains of southern Xinjiang. He wanted to do as Zen Master Baimei said, not to use any magic power at all, and after practicing asceticism for 30 years, he would come out and accept Yin Yang Sou as his disciple, lead him into the right path of Buddhism, and ascend to paradise after everything was done.

Li Ning learned his lesson this time and came to his senses afterwards, deeply regretting that he should not have used his magic power.

This time he really didn't need any magic power at all. The incarnation of the relics was no different from an ordinary person. He didn't need to eat or drink and just practiced asceticism in the mountains.

However, he didn't know that this itself was the use of magic power.

Zhu Youmu found the Yin-Yang Old Man again. Now the Yin-Yang Old Man had converted to Buddhism under the guidance of "Heart Like Buddha" and was granted a golden body, becoming one of the Ten Arhats.

The Yin-Yang Old Man was the first to find Li Ning in the jungle. He had shaved his head, and there were lotus flowers growing under his feet. He stepped on thorns and came to Li Ning.

Li Ning sat on a big rock, cross-legged, closed his eyes, and entered into silent meditation, as if he saw nothing.

The Yin-Yang Master circled around Li Ning three times, and finally stopped in front of him. He thought for a moment, bowed to him again, and then spoke: "Master Li Ning, do you still remember me?"

Li Ning did not open his eyes and did not respond.

Yin Yang Old Man sighed: "I have now entered the state of mind like a god... mind like a Buddhist. Now, I follow the command of the Buddha's Dharma and come to you to ask for another relic of Master Zunsheng."

Li Ning still did not respond.

Yin Yang Old Man became more and more worried: "Back then, Zen Master Zunsheng once said that my future career would be in Buddhism, and my future teacher would be you. But now it has come to this, you don't even have a physical body anymore, only your soul is left, and Senior Brother Ling has come to me again... I also want to do things according to Zen Master Zunsheng's will, but I can't do it."

Li Ning still ignored him, as if he hadn't heard. Zhu Youmu's voice came from the air, scolding Yin Yang Old Man: "What are you talking about? Hurry up and bring his relics over!"

Yin Yang Old Man replied to Zhu Youmu with some grievance: "He is now the incarnation of the spirit, and he has such a temper. How can I interrogate him..."

"Useless thing!" Zhu Youmu said, "This body of his is an incarnation made of relics. Just put him into the poisonous dragon bag given to you by the Buddha and take him back to Jiuhua Mountain."

Yin Yang Sou was originally a sect leader, so he could naturally see what was going on with Li Ning and knew what to do.

He just didn't want to take responsibility, always thinking that Zhu Youmu and Li Ning were brothers and had a good relationship. Zhu Youmu could beat Li Ning to death with his own hands, but he might not allow others to bully him. If he said something wrong and made Zhu Youmu angry, he would not be able to withstand a slap from him. Therefore, he pretended to be stupid and let Zhu Youmu tell him what to do.

In addition, Yin Yang Sou had studied Buddhism with Zen Master Zunsheng, and he knew what was right and what was evil. He knew that something was wrong with Nun Xinru, but he had already boarded the pirate ship. Frightened by Zhu Youmu's power, he dared not go against Zhu Youmu's will. He had to do whatever Zhu Youmu asked him to do, but he was unwilling to attack Li Ning just like that, and was still hoping that Li Ning would have some tricks up his sleeve.

However, Li Ning did not have any tricks up his sleeve and just sat there motionless.

The Yin-Yang Old Man had no choice but to take out the poison dragon bag, raise his hand in the air, and take Li Ning in.

Next, the two did not return to Jiuhua Mountain directly, but went to Wuyi Mountain to find Xie Shan.

Xie Shan is still trying to find a way to save Xie Lin, but Xie Lin is still immersed in her own delusion.

At that time, the Xie sisters worked together to activate the time-reversal function of the Bayeux Talisman, to make the whole world go back to the time when Fei Yang just traveled here. As a result, the small horse pulled the big cart, and the function of the Bayeux Talisman was activated, but it did not truly reverse the world's time, but instead made the Xie sisters fall into their own delusion.

The Xie sisters blamed Shi Feiyang for all the sufferings they, their father Xie Shan, and their loving mother Cui Wu had endured.

In fact, they had already regretted letting Yue Qinbin go, but they did not regret attacking Shi Feiyang. What they regretted was that they were too well protected by their parents in the past eighty or ninety years, and lived too carefree as children in Xiandu Mountain, which led to their poor learning and the escape of the demon dragon from Dinghu Peak!

They resented the evil dragon for using such vicious means that their father could not be freed, their mother died tragically, and they could not ascend to heaven and achieve enlightenment, eventually ending up in this situation.

The power of this Bayeux Talisman is extremely great. The deeper their resentment is, the more real the illusion is. Xie Ying was killed by Honghua, and after her death, her soul was still trapped in her own illusion and could not be freed. It was only when Xinru pulled her out that she was reincarnated as A Ying.

Xie Lin was still alive, but she was almost dead.

Xie Shan tried his best to pull her out but failed. The last time Master Youtan took action, Xie Lin was briefly lucid.

But Xie Lin was chasing the evil dragon in the illusory world. His magic power became stronger and stronger, and he was a great figure in the world. It was completely a situation created by his "fantasy". Although he could not kill the evil dragon every time and could not get what he wanted, he could always beat the evil dragon to the ground and make it run for its life. It was very refreshing!

But after waking up, he found that the "Xie Wang School" was still passed down, his father's temples were gray, his face was full of wrinkles, his essence and blood were exhausted, and his sister had been killed by a witch...

For Xie Lin, the real world outside is a "nightmare" from which she cannot wake up. She prefers to believe that what is in the illusion is real.

She told Xie Shan: "Buddhism says, 'In dreams, there are clearly six realms, but after waking up, there is nothing in the universe.' Logically, both sides are the six realms created by the delusion of the mind, and both sides are dreams. One is a nightmare, and the other is a sweet dream. My daughter would rather live in a sweet dream, and when she achieves Buddhahood in the dream, she will let the universe be empty, and then reunite with her father..."

She would rather indulge in a beautiful dream than come out.

At this point, Xie Shan was at a loss. Not to mention Xie Shan, even Sakyamuni and Amitabha Buddha themselves couldn't pull her out!
Just when Xie Shan was feeling desperate and thinking that Master Ren should have come out of retreat and was going to take Xie Lin to Xiaohan Mountain, Zhu Youmu arrived with the Yin-Yang Master.

Xie Shan already knew that Xin Rushen Ni had taken another path, but he never liked to meddle in other people's affairs and hated to cause trouble the most.

Anyone who talks about gossip all the time is a gossiper. No matter if you are cultivating Taoism or Buddhism, you should only avoid gossip, not cause it.

In his understanding, Xinru Shenni's Buddhist teachings were much higher than his, and his words and deeds were beyond his ability to guess and judge. Masters Fenda and Udumbara could judge, but he could not.

Who knows if Xin Ru Shen Ni specifically acted like that to convert those who are predestined to be saved in the heterodox sects?
He just wants to cure Xie Lin now.

Zhu Youmu knew his wish and specifically told him: "To save Junior Sister Xie Lin, only Buddha can do it in the world."

The last time Xie Shan went to Jiuhua Mountain, he did not have a falling out with Xin Ru Shen Ni. He was just "scolded" by her and still believed that Xin Ru Shen Ni was a master.

He asked Zhu Youmu miserably, "Can Shen Ni really help me cure Lin'er?"

"Of course!" Zhu Youmu said, "I came here this time to invite you over according to the command of my Buddha. My Buddha saves all living beings, how can I watch her sink?"

Xie Shan was helpless at this time, so he carried Xie Lin and followed Zhu Youmu and the others to Jiuhua Mountain.

When he arrived at Xinru's temple, Xie Shan found that Xinru was sitting high on the platform, surrounded by golden light. The "Bodhisattvas" and "Arhats" were all cast in gold. The scene was like that of Buddha.

He thought to himself: With Xinru Shenni's magical powers, she can already manifest herself as a saint in various worlds, and can also manifest herself as a Buddha in a world without Buddhas. Now that this world is about to enter the Dharma Ending Age, it is appropriate for Xinru Shenni to manifest herself as a Buddha.

However, he did not know that the Buddha's light of Xinru Shenni contained her profound will. When he arrived here, he was illuminated by the Buddha's light and was influenced by Xinru's will.

Xie Shan asked Xin Ru: "Can the nun help me save Lin Er from the delusion?"

Xin Ru Shen Nun sat upright on the lotus throne, a hundred feet tall, like a golden Buddha, with a solemn appearance: "Speaking of which, this matter also has my karma. If I had not allowed the sisters to go to Longxiang Temple to get the palm leaf talisman, they would not have fallen to this point. Good, good! Now Ying'er has been saved by me and has become a nun under my seat. Lin'er should have been the same, but her roots are far worse than Ying'er's, so she has suffered so many more years of suffering."

Xie Shan explained the difficulty: "Now Lin'er would rather indulge in the illusion and refuse to come out. Master Youtan was unable to..."

The nun Xin Ru Shen smiled and said, "That's easy! The reason why she doesn't want to come out is that she has seen the impermanence and suffering of this world, birth, old age, sickness and death, love and separation, hate and reunion, desire and failure, the five elements burning fiercely, and all kinds of disappointments. However, my place is comparable to the Western Lotus Pond Assembly and the Pure Land is no more than this. It is more special than her illusory world. If she sees it, she will naturally like it more and abandon the world in that illusory world!" After she finished speaking, she waved her hand, and a ray of Buddha's light shot out from the seven-treasure golden pagoda behind her, covering Xie Shan and his daughter.

When illuminated by the Buddha's light, Xie Shan felt relaxed all over, and his heart was completely relaxed and peaceful. He had been exhausted both physically and mentally over the years.

Xie Lin opened her eyes directly, looked around in confusion, and then struggled out of Xie Shan's arms: "Thank you, am I in paradise?"

The nun Xin Ru Shen said, "This is not the Pure Land, but it is more wonderful than the Pure Land."
