Film and Television: In Joy of Life, he marries Fan Ruoruo!

Chapter 440: Jinlian advances to the extraordinary level! Li Changan is about to pass the tribulation!

Western Regions.

Du'e Arhat sits cross-legged on a lotus platform that floats on the water, with his hands clasped together and his eyes closed in meditation.

"Bodhisattva Guangxian is contacting Bodhisattva Jialuoshu together with Bodhisattva Liuli."

The ugly, handsome and heroic Asura said in a deep voice.

What the three Bodhisattvas were talking about must have been the fall of Southern Xinjiang and Buddhism’s subsequent strategic plans.

Du'e Arhat opened his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and said:
"You go to Zhenmo Gorge and check if the body of King Shura is still there. I will go to the Zen Forest to meet the Buddha."

Under the Bodhi tree.

Guangxian Bodhisattva, who is depicted as a young monk, takes out a golden bowl from his sleeve and places it in front of him.

Opposite him was a glass Bodhisattva dressed in white, with bare feet as white as snow and flowing black hair.

Her eyes, sparkling with the luster of glass, looked at Guangxian without any emotion and said softly:

"How strong is the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox?"

The young monk said calmly, "It's still a little short of the first rank."

Liuli Bodhisattva nodded: "Without awakening that magical power, she cannot fully utilize the spiritual essence of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox, so the threat is not that great."

As he spoke, the golden bowl projected a golden light, and above the two people's heads, the tall and burly figure of the Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha appeared.

Bodhisattva Guangxian clasped his hands together and said calmly, "The Southern Demon has regained his kingdom."

……

Demon-suppressing ravine.

A cold valley in the south of Alanta.

The Buddhist sect carved roads and prison cells on the cliff to imprison monks who broke the precepts, demons who roamed the Western Regions, and some foreign enemies.

Asuro descended from a high altitude and looked around. The cliffs on both sides of the valley were filled with empty and desolate prison cells.

The further down you go, the dimmer the light becomes.

Asura landed in the valley and entered the cave, which led him directly to the underground of Alandra.

According to legend, the Buddha suppressed the Asura King at the bottom of the mountain, referring to this Demon-Suppressing Stream.

The bottom of the valley is the forbidden area of ​​Alanta, and ordinary monks are not allowed to approach it. As for the Arhats and Vajras, they are also not allowed to enter without the permission of the Bodhisattva.

In the past, Bodhisattva Guangxian was sitting in Alanta, watching from a high place. Asura had never been here, either before his death or after his return.

Asura continued to move forward along the dark corridor, not afraid of hitting the wall at all, because even the peerless magical weapons could hardly break his physique.

After walking for a quarter of an hour, Asura stopped.

“Hoo, hoo, hoo.”

Ahead, from deep in the corridor, there was the sound of rhythmic breathing.

The place where the Buddha slept, in the Zen monastery west of Alanta.

The red wall is like a giant python winding through the mountains, with layer upon layer and topped with gray tiles.

Outside the Zen forest, a golden light lit up and took the form of an Arhat who saves people from disasters.

Du'e Arhat clasped his hands together, bowed outside the Zen forest, and whispered:
"Disciple Du'e, pay homage to the Buddha."

The Zen forest was silent, without any movement or even any living creatures.

"Disciple Du'e, pay homage to the Buddha."

Still no movement.

As Du'e walked along the way, he saw towering pagodas, mottled walls, and deep fallen leaves, giving a feeling of desolation and death.

He searched for the sculptures of Confucian saints with a purpose.

The Zen temple was very large, occupying the entire mountain top. Du'e's goal was also very clear, and he went straight to the depths of the Zen temple, where there was a Bodhi tree.

According to legend, Buddha attained enlightenment on Mount Alandra.

On the day of his enlightenment, the sky became jealous and torrential rain and lightning came down.

At this time, a Bodhi tree grew out from behind the Buddha, protecting him from wind and rain, and blocking lightning.

Soon, Du'e arrived at the depths of the Zen forest and saw the Bodhi tree.

The Bodhi tree is not tall, but it stretches out in all directions, towering like a canopy.

Du'e Arhat's pupils contracted.

Under the shade of the tree, there is a pile of severely weathered rubble. Upon careful identification, you can see that they are broken stone sculptures.

The statue of the Confucian saint was destroyed, and the Buddha was freed. Du'e Arhat looked at the pile of stone sculptures for a long time without saying a word.

Suddenly, a calm, emotionless voice sounded from behind Du'e Arhat:
"Du'e, what are you doing here?"

In this situation, if it were an ordinary person, his heart would inevitably beat faster and he would break out in a cold sweat.

Du'e was a second-grade arhat and a disciple of the Buddha.

Theoretically speaking, his status is no less than that of Guangxian Bodhisattva.

"Shen Shu broke the seal and reappeared in the world. The Southern Demon took back the Hundred Thousand Mountains and announced the restoration of his country.

This is a matter of great importance. I believe that the Buddha should not sleep any longer. "

He was qualified to meet the Buddha directly.

It’s just that Buddhism respects the fruit position, and Arhats are one level lower than Bodhisattvas, so Bodhisattvas usually have a higher status.

"The Buddha extinguishes the karmic fire of the world. When it is time to wake up, it will wake up.

When it’s time to see you, I will see you.”

Bodhisattva Guangxian said in a calm tone:

"If you don't want to see Him, you won't be able to see Him no matter how high you go."

Du'e Arhat clasped his hands together, bowed his head and said, "It is I who am anxious."

Bodhisattva Guangxian nodded and said, "Go, and don't disturb the Buddha anymore."

Du'e said nothing more and walked away.

Just as he passed by Guangxian Bodhisattva, a subtle, strange whisper suddenly came from behind him:

"Help me, save me"

The cry for help is like a stone thrown into a well, causing ripples on the calm water.

Du'e's heart is the well water.

He stopped and looked back slowly.

Look at the Guangxian Bodhisattva behind you and look at the Bodhi tree.

Bodhisattva Guangxian narrowed his eyes and smiled:
"What else?"

Du'e put his hands together, chanted the Buddha's name, and then stared at Guangxian Bodhisattva and said:

"Since Bodhisattva Kalasha is adamant about not accepting Mahayana Buddhism, we have no choice but to ask the Buddha for advice.

It just so happens that Bodhisattva Kāśyapa is not in Alanta."

Du'e stopped talking at that time and did not continue.

Bodhisattva Guangxian stared at him for a few seconds, his expression softened slightly, and he said slowly:

"This is a critical moment for the long-term development of Buddhism. The people of Alanta should unite as one."

The Arhat Du'e put his hands together and bowed his head: "Amitabha, it was I who was angry."

After that, he turned and left.

Bodhisattva Guangxian withdrew his gaze, looked at the stones scattered on the ground, paused for a few seconds, and then looked at the gnarled and sturdy Bodhi tree.

Du'e Arhat walked out of the Zen forest with steady steps and came to the edge of the cliff.
"Amitabha."

Du'e put his hands together and chanted the Buddha's name in a low voice. Then, a faint golden light appeared on his body.

He entered into a state of meditation.

Half an incense stick of time later, steady footsteps came from outside the path.

Asura's tall and burly figure passed through the green plants and appeared beside the pond.

“I heard breathing sounds in the Demon Suppression Gorge. I tried to get closer, but the warrior’s sense of crisis did not give me any warning.

“That was very unusual, so I stepped back.”

As the strongest fighter under Bodhisattva, Asura is certainly not a brainless reckless man.

This is just a preliminary test today, and we will stop here.

Du'e said slowly, "Deep in the Zen forest, under the Bodhi tree, there is indeed a statue of a Confucian saint, but it has collapsed long ago."

If the sculpture is still there, then the Buddha is still in a semi-sealed state. The one who pushed Jiazi to eliminate the demons and sealed Shenshu was another mysterious super-person.

If the sculpture is broken, it means that the Buddha has used the luck of the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons to break free from the seal of the Confucian Sage.

But because he needed to seal the gods, he chose to sleep.

"The Buddha has already escaped. Perhaps the one in the Demon-Suppressing Gorge is him." Asura said calmly, not surprised. At this time, Du'e Arhat shook his head gently:
"Before I could check, Bodhisattva Guangxian arrived.

As I turned to leave, I heard a cry for help from behind me. ”

Asura's protruding brow bone without eyebrows moved violently and said in a stern tone:
"A cry for help?"

Du'e Arhat nodded.

The two of them immediately fell silent, a chill running down their spines.

After a while, Asura said slowly:
"There's something wrong with Guangxian."

Du'e Arhat nodded and said: "He keeps a close watch on the Zen temple, and most of the Bodhisattvas have problems.

At least, the Bodhisattvas know some secrets, such as the fact that the Confucian sage sealed the Buddha. "

Asura looked at the pond and thought:
“If we figure out who is asking for help and who is sleeping, we can uncover the truth.

But it’s too dangerous for us.”

Du'e's eyes flickered and he said:
"you mean"

Asura confessed:

“We can use the Southern Demon. The Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox wants to protest against Buddhism, so it will definitely come to take back Shenshu’s head.

That’s when we have our chance.”

Under normal circumstances, with Guangxian in charge of Alanta, it would be impossible for them to find out the situation.

Duer sighed:
"I can't take any more actions these days. Bodhisattva Guangxian is probably suspicious of me."

……

In the empty valley, colorful clouds are lingering and the sound of water is gurgling.

More than a dozen thatched cottages are located in the valley. The elegant and gentle Taoist Master Bai Lian sits cross-legged with his disciples by the stream, absorbing the spiritual energy from the mountains.

Four or five orange cats were chasing and playing between the houses and in the bushes.

The disciples of Di Zong moved here half a year ago.

After finishing the daily required breathing exercise, the gentle and mature Taoist Master Bai Lian opened his eyes, looked at the more than 20 disciples, and said with satisfaction:

“It could be as long as two months, or as short as ten days. It’s time for some of you to go out and accumulate merit.

“But remember one thing: doing good deeds and accumulating virtue should come from the heart, not for the sake of gain or spiritual practice.

"Doing good for the sake of doing good will inevitably backfire, understand?"

The disciples responded loudly: "Disciples understand."

Taoist Bai Lian nodded and was about to continue teaching when he suddenly heard a loud "bang". A thatched cottage in the south exploded and a magnificent halo rose.

"Senior Brother Jinlian has broken through?!"

Taoist Master Bai Lian turned his head suddenly, surprised and happy.

"Uncle Jinlian has broken through."

The disciples were overjoyed.

Turning around, I saw an old Taoist priest with black hair sitting cross-legged in the air.

Colorful rays of light bloom from her body, magnificent and spectacular, giving people a feeling of stability and peace.

The light of merit.

Taoist Master Bai Lian walked slowly and approached, a smile on his gentle face:
"Brother Jinlian, your gray hair has turned black. I guess your cultivation has greatly improved."

Taoist Master Jinlian sat cross-legged in silence without answering.

"Senior Brother Jinlian?" Bai Lian called out tentatively.

"Yes, I have achieved Yang God and entered the extraordinary realm."

Suddenly, the voice of Taoist Master Jinlian came from behind.

Bai Lian looked back in surprise and saw an orange cat licking its paw gracefully.

Seeing her looking at him, the orange cat suddenly froze and put down its paw.

"Cough cough!"

The orange cat cleared his throat and said in a normal tone:
"The extraordinary realm is indeed magical. It made me unable to control my soul for a while and was forced to possess the cat."

The disciples suddenly understood.

It turns out that Master Uncle Jinlian is a newly promoted transcendental being who is unable to control his power, causing his soul to leave his body and possess the orange cat.

Taoist Master Jinlian left the orange cat's body, returned to his own body, and opened his eyes.

"How long have I been in seclusion?" Jinlian asked.

"Half a year." Bai Lian replied.

Jinlian nodded slowly, calmly asking, "Has anything major happened in the outside world recently?"

"Li Changan and Wei Yuan destroyed the Wushen Cult."

"The headquarters of the Wushen Cult was destroyed, and Dafeng occupied all three kingdoms of the Wushen Cult."

"The emperor is dead, Princess Huaiqing ascends the throne, and Li Changan is promoted to Heavenly King."

"Yunzhou rebelled."

"The Buddhist sect broke the covenant with Dafeng."

……

The disciples talked non-stop.

"." Taoist Master Jinlian's face froze when he heard this. He looked at Bailian woodenly and questioned:
"I have only been in seclusion for half a year?"

Are you sure it's not ten years later?!

Not long after, Jinlian took out the fragment of the Book of Earth, preparing to announce the extraordinary news of her coming out of seclusion and advancing to a higher level.

The next step of the plan is to realize the original intention of establishing the Tiandihui, kill Hei Lian, and eliminate the blackened Dizong demon.

【Nine: Everyone, long time no see.】

[No. 5: Ah! Taoist Priest, you are still alive! ]

【No. 2: Taoist priest, I'm glad you're alright.】

[No. 4: We need to confirm whether the Taoist priest is possessed by evil thoughts.]

[No. 3: I have been worried about the safety of Taoist Master Bai Lian.]

【Number Nine: ……】

Taoist Master Jinlian's face turned dark instantly. It seemed that all members of the Tiandihui knew that Black Lotus had polluted Joan of Arc, so they were very alert and cautious about whether Jinlian had turned evil.

Especially Xu Qian'an, he is clearly in the Yin-Yang Golden Lotus. If he turns evil and possessed by the devil, with his mind full of dual cultivation, the first person to suffer will be the mature Taoist priest Bai Lian nearby.

[No. 6: Taoist priest, have you successfully broken through to the third level? ]

Taoist Master Jinlian breathed a sigh of relief. Monk Hengyuan was still very kind-hearted and only cared about whether he had made a breakthrough.

The third rank is extraordinary. Hengyuan's words should cause the other members to be amazed.

After all, the Tiandihui has gained another extraordinary person, and Dafeng has gained another third-grade combat force.

However, no one in the group seemed excited or motivated.

[No. 6: Even if there is a risk of contamination, we can’t worry about it. Come to the capital quickly. Li Tianwang is about to survive.]

What does Hengyuan mean? He even suspects that I am going to turn evil... Jinlian couldn't help but complain in her heart.

Cross the robbery!

Li Changan has to overcome the tribulation, which means he has to enter the first level and become a land immortal!

No wonder the Tiandihui was not very enthusiastic about Jinlian, the new extraordinary person.

It turns out that Dafeng is about to produce a second first-class combat force!

It is extremely difficult for a first-rank warrior to be promoted, and the required conditions are very harsh, because a first-rank warrior is already part of the God of War.

In comparison, the path to advancement to the first rank in Taoism is relatively smoother.

Jinlian was both surprised and happy. She was surprised that Li Changan's cultivation speed was so astonishing, and she was happy that Taoism was going to produce another land immortal. It was a good thing no matter how she looked at it.

As a senior in Taoism, I still need to give some general knowledge about the Taoist heavenly tribulation.

[Number Nine: The first level of Taoism is called "Land Immortal", but few people know the core power of this realm. Land Immortal is beyond the cycle of reincarnation, not in the five elements, can turn stone into gold, move mountains and seas.

The immortals on land have two core abilities: an indestructible body and the ability to transform decay into magic.

The Taoist system has two paths: Golden Elixir and Yuanying are one path, and Yin Shen and Yang Shen are another path.

The second level of tribulation is the process of integrating two paths.

When the golden elixir path is taken to the extreme, one can become indestructible, and its characteristic is immunity to all spells.

When the Yin Shen path is taken to its extreme, it condenses the four elements of "earth, wind, water and fire" into the physical body.
