The disaster of the world begins with Dongfang Bubai

Chapter 38 Master, please use your life as a greeting card to welcome me into the world
At this moment, a melodious and gentle flute sound came from outside the Zen room, followed by a loud roar like thunder.

"There is a demon from the demon sect sneaking into the temple, pretending to be the master. Come with me to eliminate the demon and help the master."

When Master Zhihui heard this, he looked at Xi Mingzhang with sharp eyes, but saw a smile on the corner of his mouth, which disappeared like smoke.

Master Zhihui frowned and immediately walked out of the meditation room. He saw all the masters of Tiantai Sect gathered outside, all of them looking at him coldly.

"What a demon from the evil sect, he is so rampant, disguising himself as the master of wisdom." As a monk spoke, he hit the master of wisdom's head with a stick of great force.

The Master of Wisdom casually slapped the opponent with his palm and repelled him, then shouted:

"Yun Xin, look carefully, I am wisdom."

"Hmph, no wonder you dared to sneak into my Tiantai Sect." Great Monk Yunxin ignored him, jumped up, and created hundreds of thousands of stick shadows to attack.

Master Wisdom frowned even deeper, and in an instant, a stream of energy hit the weak point of the stick shadows in the sky, knocking them away.

Upon seeing this, the great monks around immediately rushed forward with roars.

Master Wisdom had no choice but to push out his palms, creating a three-foot-thick wall of air around his body, suppressing the crowd and making it impossible for them to advance or retreat.

Suddenly, a deep voice floated into the ears of the Master of Wisdom.

"The master's Heart Buddha Palm is truly extraordinary. It makes the complex simple, and the great skill appears clumsy. His pair of flesh palms seem to encompass the ultimate truth of heaven and earth, and he actually created all kinds of strength within the Qi wall, causing these people to be deeply trapped in the mud, like a mud cow entering the sea, unable to move forward or backward."

When Master Zhihui heard the voice, he looked over and saw Xi Mingzhang sitting on the eaves with a playful look on his face.

"Were they the victims of your scheme?" Although he was asking the question, his face was full of certainty.

"The sound of the temple bells is like a harmonious sound of nature. Its unique melody brings people into a peaceful state of mind. Listening to the bells is like listening to the sounds of nature, which makes people intoxicated." Xi Mingzhang said leisurely:

"After listening to the bells for decades, I have unknowingly perfected the mind-controlling secret technique that I just created. I hope the master will appreciate it."

As soon as these words were spoken, all the great monks became extremely powerful, and suddenly burst out with inner energy far beyond their own.

The Master of Wisdom's eyes were filled with anger, but when he saw blood on the seven orifices of the people besieging him, he immediately realized that this was done at the cost of breaking all the tendons and veins in his body, squeezing his body to unleash a combat power beyond its limit.

"Beast!"

His body shook, his inner energy surged out, and he slapped out with both palms, displaying the purest and most superior internal energy of Buddhism.

The palm seemed to have the power to hold up the sky, and it knocked everyone to the ground with overwhelming force.

Xi Mingzhang clapped his hands and laughed:
"Well, it's a pity that they missed the opportunity. Not only are the martial arts skills of these disciples of the master completely destroyed, but their foundations are also injured. I'm afraid they won't survive more than half an hour. How sad!"

The Master of Wisdom said nothing. His eyes, which should have been flashing with wisdom, were filled with indifference as he swept straight towards Xi Mingzhang.

When he hit Xi Mingzhang on the chest with a palm, he saw him collapse like a bubble.

"You have such a strong murderous intention. I didn't kill them, so why are you taking your anger out on me?" Xi Mingzhang appeared on the top of the bell tower like a dream, and said with a faint smile:

"These people will die because it was the master who refused to surrender. I just wanted to destroy their martial arts, but it was the master who took their lives!"

The wise master ignored him, flew up, and pressed Xi Mingzhang down with his hands. The seemingly simple and complex principles of heaven and earth contained in his hands blocked all the gaps for him to escape from his hands.

But another palm strike seemed to hit the willow catkins dancing in the wind, and Xi Mingzhang's figure collapsed again, appearing on the pagoda like a ghost. "Wu Chang, your martial arts are somewhat similar to the "Immortal Seal" and "Phantom Demon Body Technique."

"Master, you have a good eye. I have also heard that the Immortal Seal is an illusion that has evolved from the magic sect's skills. I have secretly guessed that this should be an extremely profound martial art created from the secret teachings of the magic sect and the principles of Buddhism."

The Master of Wisdom stared at Xi Mingzhang closely, sensing his flaws or omissions, and said:
"It is true that one path leads to a hundred paths. Shi Zhixuan's Immortal Seal is in line with the secret teachings of the Huajian School of the Demon Sect and the Bu Tian Dao School. It is based on the profound Buddhist philosophy of "not being on this shore, not being on the other shore, and not being in the middle". It is a set of profound martial arts that has been formed through countless life-and-death battles."

Xi Mingzhang seemed unaware of the Master of Wisdom's investigation of him, and said nonchalantly:

"Before I was thirty, I boasted that I had mastered many Buddhist scriptures. Over the past twenty years, Master Jiaxiang, Venerable Dixin, and Master Daoxin have all come to the Tiantai Sect and preached their own Buddhist teachings. I have summarized your principles from them."

"In my opinion, whether it is Master Jiaxiang's talk about the two truths of reality and reality, the eightfold middle way, Master, you talk about the one thought of three thousand, the harmony of the three truths, or Master Dixin's use of the Dharma Realm of Dependent Origination to illustrate worldly laws, or Master Daoxin's exposition of the theory of one practice of samadhi."

"The main themes of the teachings are deeply influenced by the Prajnaparamita-sūtra and Nagarjuna's Middle Way, which expound the doctrine of dependent origination and emptiness."

"All phenomena and phenomena in the real world are false, and only the true nature of the Dharma is the real and non-dual Dharma."

He paused and continued with a smile:
"It was because of my profound understanding of many Buddhist principles that at the age of 27, I entered the Dao through sound and reached the level of a great master. My martial arts foundation can be summed up by the Six Likes in the Diamond Sutra."

Without waiting for Xi Mingzhang to continue, the Master of Wisdom began to speak:
"All conditioned dharmas are like dream bubbles, dew and electricity, and should be viewed in this way."

Xi Mingzhang looked calm:
"All worldly phenomena that are dependent on causes and conditions are like dreams, shadows in bubbles, and mists, unfathomable and ever-changing.

"At the same time, it changes as fast as lightning. We should always look at everything in this world like this. We should not cling to it and let it bind us from our original free and liberated nature."

He said loudly:

"All creation is subject to the law of formation, maintenance, destruction and emptiness. Therefore, worldly laws are called conditioned laws, also called conditioned laws. This is why my whole body is both perfect and imperfect. It seems that everything is perfect, but also that everything is imperfect."

"Master, can you find the flaw in my energy?"

The wise master was silent for a while, then said:

"Impermanence, the sea of ​​suffering is endless, turn back and you will find the shore."

"Hahaha, Master, you are at your wit's end." Xi Mingzhang pointed at the Master of Wisdom:

"You know that after I turned thirty, I gained enlightenment one day and made a half-step breakthrough to the state of unity between man and nature. Now I have finally entered this state completely."

"Now I have a deeper understanding of Buddhism and better martial arts than you, so I will tell you what the sea of ​​suffering is."

Xi Mingzhang suddenly appeared in front of Master Zhihui, and used his finger as a sword to press his heart meridian, and then said:

"The sea of ​​suffering is the human world. If you want to turn back, the only way is death."

Just when the wise master thought he was doomed, he found that he was not dead and he didn't even seem to be seriously injured.

"Martial arts are so magical. Even if your internal organs are destroyed, my true energy will protect your heart and you won't die for a while. So, Master, time is running out."

As Master Wisdom was in a daze, Xi Mingzhang's figure gradually faded and his voice began to sound distant and ethereal.

"Master, please use your life as a greeting card to welcome me into the martial arts world."
