I stole divine power in Daxia

Chapter 604: How to Leave the Dream World

The news that the Buddha appeared at the Chishan Temple and bells and drums sounded spread throughout the city in less than half an hour. On the next day, the entrance was filled with cars. People even burned incense to burn for the clay statue of Buddha, let alone the real Buddha.

In the lecture hall, Zhou Tieyi sat in the main seat, holding a lotus, explaining the method of entering the Tao through dreams. This method was deduced by him by combining Hu Wenlang's [Dream World] method and the martial arts of his young disciple Deng Xuehu. This dream world is extremely special. Even a saint has to become a mortal in this dream, and even the Buddha cannot create something out of nothing. Since this world exists based on dreams, the power of dreams can naturally be applied.

As for how many of these people seeking the Dharma are able to practice, Zhou Tieyi still needs to study this.

At noon, the boss who had become a monk walked up to Zhou Tieyi with an expression that said, "I was right about you." Zhou Tieyi was still explaining some details of cultivation to the audience. Seeing the boss making a face, Zhou Tieyi walked aside, looked at the boss's shiny bald head, and said, "You don't have to shave your head, cultivation will still be effective."

The boss touched his head and said, "I don't have much hair left anyway, so this saves me a lot of trouble. By the way, even if you become a god, you will still have romantic debts."

After the initial shock yesterday, the boss discovered that even though Zhou Tieyi was already known as the Heavenly Venerable, his personality had not changed much. According to Zhou Tieyi himself, no matter which school of practice one follows, the ultimate goal is to unify me with the world. If even I am abandoned, even if I gain the world, it will be in vain. Therefore, the boss just follows his heart and is happy and at ease.

But now not everyone can see Zhou Tieyi. Even those who seek the Dharma have to be screened by the boss as the 'reception monk'. Near noon, the original reception monk outside said that a beauty never seen before came to see Zhou Tianzun.

The boss thought at the time that the young monk had never seen the world, and that Zhou Tianzun had seen all kinds of beauties. He might be a monster who came to disrupt Tianzun's Taoism, so he went to examine him with a critical attitude.

Finally, they came to the conclusion that this was indeed not a mortal beauty. Not only her appearance, but her every frown and smile alone could charm everyone. This kind of beauty only appeared in novels and movies. So the boss judged that this beauty should be the same as Zhou Tieyi. Either her innate wisdom was awakened, or she was a banished immortal from another world.

So he did not continue to criticize, but instead went to find Zhou Tieyi knowing the severity of the situation.

Zhou Tieyi arrived at the temple gate. Guan Guan was still wearing the blood-red robe. Even though she had fallen into the mortal world, with her means and appearance, there were plenty of ways for her to come here.

"You came."

Zhou Tieyi said calmly.

Another reason why he spread Buddhism with great fanfare was to tell Guan Guan his position.

Guan Guan smiled pretentiously, "My husband really has boundless Buddhist wisdom. He has understood the essence of this world so quickly."

Zhou Tieyi was not very proud. Although he had understood some of the essence of the world, he still had a long way to go before leaving this world. In particular, there was a big difficulty in it. Therefore, it would be beneficial to find Guan Guan to discuss countermeasures.

The two of them went to the meditation room alone, and Zhou Tieyi told Guan Guan the question of whether yesterday was "one person's dream" or "the dream of all living beings", because only by understanding the essence of this question can one understand why Zhou Tieyi wants to spread Buddhism to everyone.

Guan Guan listened while making tea. After hearing Zhou Tieyi's words, she waited for the teapot to boil water while supporting her chin with her soft hands. "My husband, is this method really about using dreams to enter martial arts?"

Her eyes are bright and full of curiosity like a young deer. It has to be said that Guan Guan is almost natural in bewitching people, and her every move exudes a different charm.

And she was indeed curious. If it was possible to use dreams to enter martial arts, this was another path opened up by Zhou Tieyi, and it seemed to be hidden very deeply. If it weren't for the Buddha's incident this time, it would take an unknown amount of time for this backup plan to be exposed.

Zhou Tieyi stared at the white mist slowly rising from the teapot. "The first step of this method of entering a dream is visualization. Even if it is a world without the ancestral qi of heaven and earth, as long as you practice it correctly, you can enter the dream."

"The foundation of martial arts is the application of qi and blood. This is the same principle. When the two are combined, the unity of dream and martial arts will naturally produce some qualitative changes. At that time, I will use the method of the Mingyue system to connect the dreams of all living beings, and naturally they will be able to go from ordinary to holy. This will also allow those who practice this method to get rid of the false and retain the true."

"When they are no longer people in the dream, but real people in our world, many observers gather together. When they see that this world is 'fake', then no matter how real this world is, it will be 'exposed', and we can return to the real world."

Zhou Tieyi explained his theory to Guan Guan. Its essence was the "observer effect" that he recognized. In the universe where the Daxia world exists, the observer effect is extremely strong. Even saints are, to some extent, a manifestation of the observer effect. So naturally, when they are observed by all living beings, it can be confirmed.

It's just that the "living beings" in this world were not considered human beings before. They were some kind of illusory existence. Zhou Tieyi, with the help of novelists and his own martial arts, completely completed the step of making the fake look real and making them become real people. Only in this way can he observe this dream and change the nature of this place.

Guan Guan's eyes lit up. It was the first time she heard the term "observer effect". However, in Zhou Tieyi's words, this term should be one of his insights as a saint. It is the basic rule for the operation of this world. Even saints cannot completely escape it. Naturally, Buddha's dreams must also follow this rule.

While digesting the knowledge Zhou Tieyi provided, Guan Guan asked, "So, my husband, are you worried about the Emperor of Daxia and the Lord of the Blood Sea?"

Things have come to this point, Guan Guan no longer calls the Blood Sea Lord "My Lord". If she uses Zhou Tieyi to get rid of the Blood Sea Lord, then from then on she will no longer be able to become a blood priest, but will gain the freedom she has always dreamed of. If she fails, it will be useless no matter how many times she calls him "My Lord".

Zhou Tieyi nodded, "In addition to the power of Buddha and the power of dreams, there should be a third force in this dream, that is, the power of the sea of ​​blood. After all, Buddha created this dream just to drag the head of the sea of ​​blood into the dream, so the blood power of this world should be real. This is also the essential reason why I dare to 'fake and make it real'."

There was one more thing Zhou Tieyi hadn't explained to Guan Guan. The method of the "Dream World" created by Hu Wenlang had gone beyond the scope of some novelists. To be more precise, it was "cultivation of truth", so it needed a little bit of reality as a basis, and then slowly turned the fake things into the real. For example, the press release in Hu Wenlang's hand contained large sections of true descriptions, but as long as it slowly deviated from the guidance, it could lead to a false fact.

Guan Guan picked up the teapot with boiling water and poured tea for the two of them. Amid the lingering aroma of tea, Guan Guan asked, "My husband is worried that if we break free from this dream little by little, the Blood Sea Lord will also break free from this dream." "This is inevitable."

Zhou Tieyi said in an almost affirmative tone.

The Blood Sea Lord is one of the basic rules of this dream world, but it is just a more basic rule covered by the dream. If they want to break the dream, the Blood Sea Lord's rules will naturally be manifested in the world. At that time, they may have to face a Blood Sea Lord who is still in the state of a divine saint.

After all, the Buddha actually just pulled the Blood Sea Lord into a dream, and did not completely kill the Blood Sea Lord as recorded in Buddhist and human history. Therefore, Zhou Tieyi was actually unable to judge what the Blood Sea Lord's current condition was. However, he did not dare, and could not bet that the Blood Sea Lord's condition was incomplete, because if he lost the bet this time, he would lose everything.

Guan Guan picked up the teacup and took a sip. He thought for a while and said, "The Lord of the Blood Sea has thousands of incarnations. Once His will awakens, even opponents of the same level will find it difficult to determine which person He was resurrected from."

"But we have another way, which is to actively attract the will of the Blood Sea Lord to gather on one person!"

Guan Guan finally understood why Zhou Tieyi wanted to ask her to come here. This was a huge risk, but she had to admit that Zhou Tieyi's idea was indeed feasible.

Now the will of the Blood Sea Lord is suppressed by the Buddha's dream, so it is in a hazy, almost instinctive state. Then Guan Guan, as a blood priest, is naturally more attracted to this will than other ordinary people. If Guan Guan is willing to "sacrifice" himself, he is indeed able to help Zhou Tieyi determine the main will of the Blood Sea Lord's revival and complete its destruction.

But the problem now facing Guan Guan is how she can trust Zhou Tieyi. Guan Guan understands the difficulty of the Blood Sea Lord better than anyone else. Although Zhou Tieyi is the most mysterious Yanhuang God, mystery is just an attribute. It does not mean that Zhou Tieyi is stronger than the Blood Sea Lord. In fact, who can become a saintly God without any special attributes?
If she were Zhou Tieyi, the safest way would be to directly destroy herself after absorbing a large amount of the will of the sea of ​​blood, so that she could solve the problem once and for all.

Guan Guan skipped her own question and said, "Even if I agree, there is still a variable in this plan."

The variable is the previous generation blood priest, Guan Guan, who can serve as a carrier to absorb the will of the Blood Sea Lord. Then, if the previous generation priest who has higher authority, has practiced for a longer time, and has a deeper understanding of the Blood Sea orthodoxy, he can also undertake the will of the Blood Sea Lord if he wants. Not to mention that there is an unfathomable Great Xia Emperor cooperating on the side. The problem now is who between Guan Guan and the previous generation blood priest is willing to take the risk and let the will of the Blood Sea Lord revive in himself.

······
The Chishan Temple faces the Chihai Lake, with the West Mountain behind it. At this moment, on the top of the West Mountain, the Great Xia Emperor got a set of Tang suit from somewhere. He tied his slightly graying hair behind his head, and leaned on a cane that looked like a human bone. He looked at the bustling Chishan Temple at the foot of the mountain. Even from here, he could faintly hear the sound of the grand evening drum and morning bell.

The Great Xia Emperor did not have to wait long before the former blood priest, Elder Tianchi, slowly came up the mountain. When Elder Tianchi came to his side, the Great Xia Emperor pointed to the temple below which was full of incense and said bluntly, "He wants to use all the 'people' here to see through this dream."

The Great Xia Emperor spoke with great certainty, as if he had heard the news with his own ears. Elder Tianchi did not care how the Great Xia Emperor knew the news. There was a hint of confusion in his slightly cloudy eyes. "This seems to be a good thing for my Lord."

When His Majesty heard this, he sneered, "Do you think he will let the Blood Sea Lord come out of the Buddha's dream so easily? With the disciple you trained by his side, he can actively gather the will of the Blood Sea Lord and disperse them before these wills have formed a complete consciousness. In this way, he can not only escape, but also keep the Blood Sea Lord trapped here."

Elder Tianchi was silent for a while, "What do you mean by telling me this?"

The Great Xia Emperor smiled and said, "You are willing to sacrifice everything for your master. Now the Blood Sea Clan has the opportunity to revive the Blood Sea Lord."

Old Man Tianchi looked at the foot of the mountain, where the crowd was like ants. He said calmly, "Even ants know how to survive, let alone us. And how do you know that it is the will of our Lord to resurrect him now?"

After saying this, Old Man Tianchi ignored the Emperor of Great Xia and walked down the mountain slowly. Compared with Zhou Tieyi and Guan Guan, he had less trust in the Emperor of Great Xia and naturally would not easily hand over everything. The Emperor of Great Xia wanted him to take advantage of the situation first, how could this be possible!

The Great Xia Emperor looked at the increasingly smaller figure of the old man Tianchi, and after a while he sneered, "Ant."

······
In the tea room, Zhou Tieyi and Guan Guan had finished a cup of tea. After a preliminary briefing, Guan Guan looked at Zhou Tieyi and said, "If you really have magical powers, you might as well use them. For me, I will try as long as there is a glimmer of hope, but the prerequisite is that there must be hope. Otherwise, I would rather wait until the people outside come to find us."

"Although I am alone and helpless, there are many people who care about me. I believe they will take risks for me, and new changes will surely be brought about."

Zhou Tieyi pondered for a moment and asked, "How much do you understand about the method I just explained?"

Guan Guan smiled lightly, then closed her eyes. After more than ten breaths, she opened her eyes again, but a blood moon was reflected in her eyes. Under the reflection of the blood moon, Guan Guan, who had turned into a mortal again, had a thriving body and gradually transformed into a cultivator.

It only took her a dozen breaths to understand Zhou Tieyi's basic method, but before Guan Guan could become proud, Zhou Tieyi stretched out his hand and grabbed in front of her.

Supernatural power [usurpation of gods].

The next moment, Guan Guan seemed to be deprived of something, and his increased blood and energy dropped again, while in Zhou Tieyi's palm, a huge blood-red bat took off.

Guan Guan asked in disbelief, "What is this?"

Zhou Tieyi laughed and said, "Blood beast."
