Black Myth: Journey to the West: Simulate becoming an immortal!

Chapter 176 Chapter : Practicing the Heart Sutra in Reverse Direction to Tame the Anger

Chen Xi could feel that if he took advantage of this mysterious state brought about by the illusion to continue practicing the Heart Sutra.

He may be able to easily remove the obsessions of all living beings from himself and return to peace and tranquility.

After all, practicing the Heart Sutra means that Chen Xi has chosen to let go.

Only by letting go of everything can you achieve peace.

But if he did so, it would be equivalent to abandoning the Toad Spirit and even the obsession of all living beings!

On the one hand, he practices the Heart Sutra, and on the other hand, he goes one step further and escapes from the illusion of the bright moon.

On one hand, there are the obsessions of all beings who believe in Him, even the Toad Spirit...

Scenes of memories flashed through Chen Xi's mind.

Without much thought, He made the decision.

These obsessions accompanied Chen Xi, allowing him to no longer be alone on the journey westward.

At this point, how could we abandon them just because they were trapped in an illusion?

"But if I don't let go, how can I be peaceful and calm..."

If you are unwilling to let go of your own obsessions and abandon the obsessions of all living beings, you will not be able to practice the Heart Sutra and break through the illusion of the bright moon.

At this moment, Chen Xi frowned and looked confused.

And it was at this time.

Chen Xi thought of the Zen Master Wuchao and his earnest teachings when he taught the Heart Sutra.

"Practice is nothing more than cultivating the mind."

"Goodness and evil are all in me."

Chen Xi seemed to be lost in thought, and at this moment, the mystery seemed to be cleared up by just one word.

If good and bad thoughts are all generated by oneself, then how can there be only one way to cultivate the mind?
Although I have realized that letting go can bring peace and tranquility, is it necessary to let go of everything as the only way to cultivate the mind?

"There are thousands of kinds of hearts in this world, so there is naturally more than one way to cultivate the heart!"

"What I realized before is to let go. If you let go of everything, you will be at peace..."

"But...I don't want to."

“If I really let go of everything, I will no longer be myself, and my original intention will no longer be my original intention.”

"Follow your heart, practice the Heart Sutra in reverse, and carry all living beings on your back."

"It's not impossible to use my heart to feel the obsessions of thousands of people!"

Chen Xi wore a Vairocana Five Buddha crown on his head, emitting a bright light of wisdom.

He figured it out...

Chen Xi no longer considered anything else, and focused on practicing the Heart Sutra in reverse!

All the Heart Sutra principles that he had previously understood were now reversed.

Practicing the Heart Sutra in reverse is a complete denial of Buddhist principles.

If people in the world knew about this, they would definitely curse you for being a heretic and falling into the evil path.

But in Chen Xi's opinion, this is not the case.

The Heart Sutra itself is a method of cultivating the mind, and so how can there be a distinction between right and wrong ways of cultivating the mind?
He sat cross-legged on the lake, completely unmoved by the roar of the bright moon.

I feel thousands of obsessions with my whole heart and forget about myself and the world.

Suddenly, in the countless moonlit illusions...

Chen Xi's figure appeared one after another.

His palm gently patted the shoulders of those who were obsessed.

Some of them are fleeing in panic, some are clinging to each other, and some are experiencing life and death.

However, Chen Xi treated everyone equally and did not make any distinction because of this.

You once helped me and accompanied me for a while.

Now it's my turn to lend you a hand and wake everyone up...

We have to continue walking together on the road ahead until our obsession is fulfilled!
The illusion in which all living beings are obsessed began to intersect and gradually overlap because of the appearance of Chen Xi.

In an instant, the illusion where Chen Xi was located gradually became heavy and huge.

All kinds of obsessions emerged.

They filled this place up completely.

At first Mingyue could still yell and curse, but later she was drowned in the obsession of all living beings.

Finally, a crisp cracking sound was heard, and the bright moon illusion could not bear the burden.
Countless layers of overlapping illusions collapsed!

in reality.

Not far from Chen Xi, Mingyue was standing, concentrating his mind and maintaining his wonderful practice.

At this moment, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, and the magic spell in his hand suddenly broke.

Then, she felt a sweet taste in her throat and blood spurted out.

However, Mingyue quickly came to her senses and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.

She looked at Chen Xi, who was slowly opening his eyes, with a look of madness on his face.

"It's so quick to break the nightmare prayer technique..."

"I was originally thinking of destroying the mind of this evil monk like you and chopping your body into pieces and feeding them to the dogs! Hahaha!"

Mingyue laughed crazily, like a mad woman.

The magic formulas in her body flew continuously, splitting into thousands of shapes.

One by one, the bright moons stepped on the flying swords and soared into the sky. Then, fireworks spewed out of their mouths and sparks fell like rain!

"Breath fire! Borrow the wind! Get on board!"

Mingyue made a series of magic gestures, and sparks all over the sky were immediately swept up in the violent storm and turned into a raging sea of ​​fire!

The flames burned, lighting up the night sky.

On Wanshou Mountain, a flash of fire suddenly fell, making the dark night as bright as day!

Chen Xi held the nine-ring staff in his hand, looking calm and composed.

His eyes moved slightly, and he looked at Mingyue's current appearance and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

On the bright moon, one can vaguely see the beautiful face of the past.

But at this moment, it was already covered by countless tangled and twisted black blood vessels.

Obviously, compared to Qingfeng, Mingyue has now degenerated into a demon.

"You look much scarier now than in the illusion..."

Chen Xi spoke lightly, his figure rose into the air, his feet stepping on the lotus.

In his eyes, a blood-red flame rose faintly.

At this moment, the Heart Sutra was practiced in reverse. With the help of thousands of obsessions, Chen Xi made a further step and was able to slightly subdue his unwilling and calm anger!
As soon as anger arises, karmic fire will begin to grow.

Perhaps it was because this time, Chen Xi was not affected by the evil.

The karmic fire that then ignited was red like blood, not black.

As the saying goes, when anger arises, karma fire turns into a red lotus.

Even though the sea of ​​fire is raging, how can it withstand the power of karmic fire!

A red lotus of karmic fire spun around and then met the sea of ​​fire under the bright moon.

In an instant, the blood-red flames illuminated the night sky of Wanshou Mountain.

All of Mingyue's clones were buried in the sea of ​​fire.

At this time, Mingyue had sparks on the corners of her clothes and her hair was burning, and she looked extremely miserable!
She looked at Chen Xi, who was walking slowly and steadily in the sea of ​​fire, and immediately gritted her teeth.

Two flying swords, humming, soared into the sky, connecting heaven and earth!
However, all this was in vain for Chen Xi.

Chen Xi's mind moved, and the Buddha head on his neck spoke in cooperation.

"broken!"

The explanation makes sense!
The Buddha head roared and the flying sword broke into pieces.

Mingyue staggered and her breath became weak.

The nine-ring staff in Chen Xi's hand instantly pierced her chest.

For a moment, filthy black blood gushed out continuously.

Mingyue fell to the ground and couldn't get up. In his last moments, his face finally regained some clarity and clarity. He was no longer as crazy and ferocious as before.

She showed a look of nostalgia, sighed weakly, and slowly closed her eyes.

"Master, I'm sorry, I've lost..."

"After Qingfeng, it all depends on you..."

Mingyue's words had just fallen...

Chen Xi's voice then came over.

"The one who killed you is Chen Xi."

Pfft!

Mingyue's head rolled to the ground, and her life was gone.

The jade pendant around her waist shattered, and the evil spirit around her slowly dissipated.

Chen Xi shook his hands, and he was so angry that the hostility between his brows was still there.

But soon, the Heart Sutra started working, and the anger subsided as easily as the movement of an arm.

He picked up Mingyue's head, sniffed the rich fragrance of its flesh and blood, and seemed to be thinking about something.

Without the interference of the bright moon, the moonlight began to shine again, and the Ruyi Book became dimly visible.

At the same time, Mingyue's death seemed to have broken a certain ingenious balance within Wuzhuang Temple.

On Wanshou Mountain, the thick and twisted roots become particularly active.

Countless roots are wriggling wildly and expanding continuously!

The huge Wanshou Mountain was now cracking apart piece by piece under the madly spreading roots and was about to collapse.

The roots dance wildly, towering up to the sky and blocking out the sun.

Wanshou Mountain is fragmented and its topography has changed significantly.

One after another, ginseng spirits emerged from the ground.

One by one, blood babies crawled out from the shadows, dancing and gesticulating, looking very excited.

Those demons who are in Wuzhuang Temple searching for treasures are in dire straits.

Even the demons with great skills could survive the landslide.

The weaker monsters were simply crushed to death by the large number of roots.

Wuzhuang Temple, back garden.

A towering tree that was dark and deep suddenly shook.

Thousands of blood-red fruits on the tree emit an indescribable fragrance.

This strange fragrance continued to waft across the entire Wanshou Mountain, and even continued to spread outside the mountain.

The eyes of the demons who smelled the strange fragrance turned red.

Their faces were full of greed, their breathing became heavy, and they rushed towards the towering tree on Wanshou Mountain that was full of blood-colored fruits!

In the right courtyard, a large number of roots emerged, rising higher and higher, and continued to grow.

In an instant, the earth was torn into pieces and the mountains shook.

Chen Xi easily took the Ruyi Book that turned from virtual to real and put it into his pocket.

Then, He leaped up and landed on a huge root.

Chen Xi looked down at the ever-rising 'Wanshou Mountain', or rather the ginseng fruit tree, with a solemn expression.

He didn't expect that Mingyue's death would have such a great impact on Wuzhuang Temple!

"Ginseng fruit tree..."

Chen Xi looked towards the back garden and could see with his naked eyes a towering tree that was constantly growing taller!

It is obvious that the changes in Wuzhuang Temple are closely related to this towering tree.

It seems that I will have to face this difficulty here...

When Chen Xi thought of this, his mind moved, and he walked towards the back garden with lotus steps.

About ten breaths later...

When Chen Xi was completely gone, the black-hearted old lady who had died long ago slowly moved her claws.

……

"The world has changed, the world has changed..."

"I don't know who caused the commotion that turned Wuzhuang Temple into this state..."

A bone spirit fled in panic, trembling.

And in its arms, there was a head.

This head was none other than the one whose body was mostly destroyed by Qingfeng's sword, leaving only the head alive!

At this moment, it was looking at the changes in Wuzhuang Temple and couldn't stop muttering to itself.

Bu Huagu really wanted to get involved, but considering his current condition, it was obviously not appropriate.

"That's all, that's all..."

"Let's hurry back to the White Bone Cave and inform the Bodhisattva of the changes in Wuzhuang Temple and ask him to make the decision..."
