I stole divine power in Daxia

Chapter 526: A lot of help
Zhou Tieyi, who was refining the ghost fairy and explaining the specific method of cultivation, looked down and saw a golden body of a Bodhisattva in the layers of thunder. He held a precious pearl in his hand. The pearl had infinite light, all of which was perfect and transparent, bright and hazy, like the morning light, shining on the dewdrops on the green grass, taking the shape of the sun, but not so dazzling.

This is a Mani Pearl, which was formed from the relics of the first abbot of the Nananda Temple when he passed away. It contains the merits and rewards of a Pratyekabuddha's lifetime.

The Pratyekabuddha in Buddhism is born in an era without Buddha. With great wisdom, he realizes the Dharma and attains Nirvana. From then on, he is pure and spotless, neither born nor destroyed. However, although this is a great reward, he can only realize himself, achieve Nirvana and escape from the sea of ​​suffering, but he does not have the supreme perseverance and supreme karmic law to save all living beings from the sea of ​​suffering. Therefore, he is called "Pratyekabuddha". He is not as enlightened as the Buddha, who can awaken others and save all living beings from the sea of ​​suffering.

Today, the chief lecturer of Nananda Temple is also like this. He is perfect in himself and close to emptiness. Except for saints, nothing in the world can hurt him in the slightest. However, even this chief lecturer, facing the true holy path, can only preach some closed-door Zen and cannot save all sentient beings in the world. This is called solitary enlightenment.

The Mani Pearl blessed the Bodhisattva, and the Bodhisattva became more and more dignified. The sapphire body of the Bodhisattva turned into a six-foot-tall golden body of pure gold, similar to the Buddha. This was a small body, and also one of the three bodies of the Buddha. Afterwards, the light and shadow of the Mani Pearl increased greatly, and it changed as desired. The six-foot-tall golden body naturally increased in size, and the light not only covered the mountains, rivers and land below, but also covered the sky above with thunder.

The six-foot-tall golden body that reaches heaven and earth and can be transformed into something like a wishful thinking lies across the sea of ​​clouds and thunder, with fluttering robes and a Mani-bead pillow in his right hand, landing at Feixian Palace on the eastern peak of Menshen Mountain. Holding the Ruyi Seal in his left hand, it falls from his side, pressing down the entire Taiyi Temple, including a hundred-mile area on the western peak of Menshen Mountain. The fluttering robes are bright golden, like the morning light, covering the thunder. The extremely strong and yang Zixiao thunder turns into a thousand-foot-long real dragon, and the ever-changing Taiyi thunder turns into a sky full of thunderstorms. However, these horrible thunders, falling into the Buddha's light, are all wrapped in the Bodhisattva's robes, and become lighter and farther in the transparent and clear precious light. Even the thunder power that can burn the heaven and earth, or the smallest sword as thin as dust, gradually disappear in this infinite emptiness. It is said that all conditioned phenomena are like dreams and bubbles.

The Bodhisattva lay on his side and looked up, gazing at the Taoist Gao Miao in the sky and the stars. The provocation in his eyes was self-evident.

Zhou Tieyi looked over and saw that although the Bodhisattva's golden body had transformed into an immortal Buddha body with the help of the Mani Pearl, the cause and condition had not been perfected, so the golden body could not completely transcend. In the Buddha's light that penetrated the heavens and the earth, the Bodhisattva's universal salvation method was reflected, such as carrying a mountain on his own body to open up an official road for the people, and using ribs to form a dam to block the flood peak...

All the things related to universal salvation were done on a large ship at this time, in order to carry this Bodhisattva to Nirvana. Although Pratyekabuddhas can only realize enlightenment alone, they can use their bodies as a canopy to block a layer of the sky.

However, because it is not perfect, it is preventing Zhou Tieyi from preaching at this time, compared with Zhou Tieyi's constantly gathering human and natural luck.

Carrying the mountain on one's body is far inferior to building a train that connects the four plains. Using ribs to build a dam is far inferior to mending a gap in the earth. In comparison, the merits and virtues slowly melt away. Within the six-zhang golden body, the real cyan-gold golden body of the Bodhisattva is like a clay statue in the temple. In just a few breaths, it seems as if it has experienced the test of thousands of years. The more human and heavenly destiny evolves and extends, the faster the cyan-gold light fades, until even if one holds the Mani Pearl, one cannot enter the wonderful realm of Nirvana.

With the bodhisattva's golden body as a bridge, the Taoist ancestral qi was about to cross into the galaxy. However, Zhou Tieyi smiled and said to the people around him, "His merits are only small favors. It is enough to save himself, but how can he save others? Pratyekabuddhas are only solitary enlightened people after all. It is okay for them to preach behind closed doors, but how dare they speak so wildly and say that I have lost my way and have few followers."

Zhou Tieyi looked at the sea of ​​clouds in the distance and said, "You have come at the right time. Let the world see who is the one who has the most support and who is the one who has the least support."

He lowered his starlight finger and continued pointing, "There are thirty-three heavens. The second one is the imaginary heaven of all laws. This heaven was created by Gongshujia. He used human wisdom to derive imaginary numbers, and used imaginary numbers to understand all laws. He controls the way of explaining physics."

"There are thirty-three heavens, the third of which is the realm of equality between heaven and people. This heaven was created by Mohism. It teaches people to love each other, makes people love each other, treats the old and the young as mine, and governs the way of moral education of people."

"There are thirty-three heavens, the fourth of which is the Steam Heaven Mechanical Realm. This heaven is the way of the steam mechanism, which allows human power to borrow objects to change the heaven and earth, and master the way of mechanical changes."

Zhou Tieyi held the divine law in his mouth, and the Taoist teachings around him transformed into three bright lights, which fell from his fingertips carrying the rules.

A hundred miles away, on the airship of Gongshujia, which was already approaching the Mohist school, an invisible imaginary bridge connected the inside and the outside, and fell directly between the Bodhisattva and the Taoist. There were two people on the bridge, wearing gorgeous clothes. Although they had white hair, the ambition and brilliance in their eyes were even greater than that of the young Gongshu Ting. The imaginary eye in his left eye socket was spinning rapidly, intertwining with the principles around him.

Gongshu Ting was originally at the peak of the second grade. After the Mingyue system was created, he established the Steam City, and with the help of his luck, he has vaguely touched the first grade realm.

At this time, among the great fortunes of the world gathered by Zhou Tieyi, although it was not of the first rank, it helped Gongshujia find the path to the first rank that he had longed for for thousands of years.

As the Eye of Imaginary Numbers in Gongshu Ting's eyes rotated, every time it rotated, the surrounding space was reversed. After just a few rotations, the space above the Yunzai Tianfenglei Realm was like a changing Rubik's Cube, unable to reach the sky above or the ground below, connected from beginning to end, repeating over and over again, forming a huge space maze. At this time, many principles were intertwined, the rules of heaven and earth, and the changes in human destiny were undoubtedly demonstrated, replenishing the Eye of Imaginary Numbers, allowing the Way of Imaginary Numbers to truly replace the Dragon Chapter of Change and explain the possibility of the Way of Heaven and Earth.

Gongshu Ting looked at the Taoist celestial beings who were rushing up one after another and snorted coldly, "Those who are stubborn in their own opinions, how can they understand the vastness of the world? Get down!"

His words at this moment were the rules of this layer of the sky. The colorful Taoist ancestral qi rays rising into the sky, in the ever-changing space, even though they had the ability to travel a thousand miles a day, were spinning around like a headless fly. In their opinion, they were flying upwards and were about to touch Zhou Tieyi's galaxy, but separated by a hundred miles of land, people all over the world saw only rays of light rushing left and right. It was obviously about to rush out of the sky, but suddenly turned back, as if it had encountered the ghost wall in folk legends.

But if a Taoist third-level immortal encounters a ghost wall without knowing it, then this "ghost" can also become a Buddha.

Only the second-rank Taoist Shouxu Lishan, using the method of guarding emptiness, turned himself into invisible. As the virtual side of the ancestral qi of heaven and earth, he relied on the weak connection he had established in advance to find the third-rank Taoists running around in the space maze. Then he crossed the maze himself and fell back to the first heaven, to the Yunzaitianfenglei Realm that had been covered by infinite pure Buddha light.

Then he waved his sleeves, and wooden men fell to the ground one after another, transforming from real to virtual. The wooden men turned into the figures of third-grade Taoists. The Taoist ancestral qi and rays of light that fell in the layers of maze turned into wooden men.

At this time, many Taoists of the third rank suddenly realized what was happening. They first bowed down to thank Taoist Lishan, and then raised their heads with a solemn expression, looking at the space above. In the layers of space that kept rotating, Gongshu Ting's one eye was full of disdain, "With such a mediocre level of Taoism, you should just go back to where you came from, and don't delay our preaching."

After he finished speaking, he sat cross-legged in the void, blending his own perceptions with the principles gathered from the thirty-three heavens at this time. He also began to explain the Gongshu family's art of divination.

A Taoist who practiced the Lihuo Qi cursed angrily, "You are helping the tyrant to commit atrocities!"

The other Taoists were calmer. After observing for a while, one of them used the Taoist Liu Ren divination method. His ten fingers were like colorful butterflies flying. But after only ten breaths, he could only give up with sweat all over his forehead. The gap was too big. Gongshu family might not be as good as Taoist in other aspects, but in terms of spatial divination, the bridge of imaginary numbers can make the world without a door to guard, so naturally it can guard the world without a door. Today, Gongshu Ting used this method of guarding the world without a door, combined with Gongshu family's luck, the method of thirty-three days, and the master of the sky. Although it is not the first grade, it is better than the first grade. It is not something that the third-grade Liu Ren divine calculation can deduce.

Another Taoist asked, "Master, can you use the method of guarding the void to pass through the door?"

Taoist Li Shan sighed softly, and then said, "The method of guarding the void is to transform the void into the real. First, you need to nourish the real. Even if you don't nourish the real, you need to establish a certain connection with the entity before you can transform the void into the real."

"I have a connection with you, so I can have the wooden man trapped for you and transform you out. I have a connection with the Venerable Shengshan here, so I can use the Buddha's light to escape from his maze."

"But I have no connection with this level of the maze, so how can I transform from reality to illusion?"

"not to mention……"

Taoist Lishan looked up and saw that above the Imaginary Heaven and All Laws Realm established by Gongshu Ting, two more layers of sky appeared. Above the All Laws Realm was the Equal Heaven and People Realm of the Mohist School. Although the Mohist leader Xu Wugui was only a second-grade realm now, like Gongshu Ting, with the blessing of these thirty-three heavens and combined with the Mohist school's foundation, he was not only a first-grade realm, but better than a first-grade realm. He was incomparable to the unmanned Yunzaitian Fenglei Realm.

The reason why they were able to be rescued so easily just now was only because Gongshu Ting took into consideration that they were all citizens of Da Xia and that the holy way was being preached today, so he refrained from killing them. Otherwise, no matter how profound his method of guarding the void was, it would have been good enough to be able to protect himself, but at least half of the more than 30 Taoists in front of him would have been killed.

Many Taoists also looked up. The rules of Xushutian were different from those of Yunzaitian. Compared to Yunzaitian's way of wind and thunder, Xushutian paid more attention to analyzing the rules, breaking down the original rules of heaven and earth into independent units.

Even the rules of heaven and earth were broken down into independent units. The up, down, left, and right directions of the natural space were also changed like a rotating Rubik's Cube. However, these decomposed units were not cut off from each other like the smallest sword. Instead, they were reorganized in the form of imaginary numbers. If one could figure out the rules and principles one by one, one would naturally be able to move forward, just like solving a maze.

If you can't solve it, then you will be just like me and others just now. Even if you have the ability to travel a thousand miles a day, you can only wander around like a headless fly.

Through the imaginary sky, the shadows of the equal heaven and people above were vague, but since it was the Mohist theory of universal love, everyone could probably guess what obstacles they would encounter after entering.

As for the steam heaven above, there are complex mechanical changes, but just like the cloud-carrying sky, it has no master yet, only the principles remain, so it should not be difficult. However, these three heavens seem to have a mysterious principle of coordinating with each other, using the Mohist "Heavenly Will" to unify man and machine, using man to explain the principles of heaven and earth, and using machine to change the things of heaven and earth. When the three are combined, there is actually a saintly aura!

Therefore, although the Lord of the Steam Sky will not attain enlightenment at this time, he will be able to manifest himself in the future and allow the Tao to be reflected back here.

Seeing this, the Taoists showed despair in their eyes, and some couldn't help but murmured in a low voice, "Could he really have evolved to the thirty-three heavens?"

With a little thought, everyone realized that Zhou Tieyi was also involved with several other schools, including the military school, the agricultural school, the miscellaneous school... and the Shinto school. If these schools sent people to develop, they could not only not evolve the thirty-three heavens, but at least build a few more layers of the sky. Combined with the twenty-three heavens built by the Taoist ancestral temples and Daxia, it would be truly unattainable.

If it was just as the Lord of Daming Palace said, they couldn't even climb up there, so what qualifications did they have to discuss right and wrong with others?

In the Buddha's light, Baoguang transformed into the appearance of Bodhisattva Shengshan of Nanda Temple. The light man he transformed into put his palms together and saluted the Taoist Lishan, who responded with a bow.

Although the cyan-gold color of Shengshan Bodhisattva's original body was dissipating little by little, he himself carried the noble spirit of a martyr. "Don't even mention whether this evil heretic can disturb the world's vision and hearing and build the so-called Thirty-three Heavens. Even if it is really built, we will climb to the top layer by layer and destroy his false teachings! Haven't you heard that in ancient times, our human race broke through the heavenly palace and destroyed the thrones of the nine ancient gods? How can we tolerate the resurrection of these nine gods now, and continue to become Buddhas and ancestors!"

Bodhisattva Shengshan spoke in an excited voice. He was willing to risk having his golden body destroyed and all his merits and virtues lost just to come here today to stop the Dao. The Taoists present were naturally in awe, and when they heard these words, they cut off their previous timid thoughts of retreating.

Taoist Li Shan sighed, "You are right, Taoist friend."

Among the Taoists in the world, except for the lineage of the Lord of Daming Palace, which is extremely incompatible with Buddhism, when Buddhists and Taoists meet, they can at least be friendly on the surface.

In addition to the fact that the teachings of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism can be transformed into each other without hindrance, the three schools also regard their opponents as equals, one level higher than the other hundred schools.

After encouraging the people present, Bodhisattva Shengshan recited a passage from the Buddhist sutra with a compassionate look, "In the last days of the Dharma, my sons and grandsons will become monks, wear your robes, slander your Dharma, have the name of monks, but do the deeds of demons. This is what it means. Today, we will not hinder your path, and tomorrow this Buddhist sutra will become reality!"

As he spoke, in the sky, the newly built three-story sky was filled with steam and fire, which gathered in Zhou Tieyi's heart palace and transformed into the Southern Danling Zhenlao Sanqi Tianjun. Red auspicious clouds rolled in from all directions of the world, and the large cauldron in front of him was struck with a pleasant sound, and he took another step forward on the path.

However, this pleasant Taoist sound sounded like a devil's sound to many Taoists, making them change color.
