Don't talk nonsense, this is the Emperor's Banner

Chapter 269 Sun Observation

Buddhist techniques naturally have a strong suppressive effect on desire and evil nature.

Although "Eighteen Phases of a Great Arhat" is only a body-refining technique, it also has this effect.

That was an evil creature just now. Just a glance from it aroused the lust and evil thoughts in Shen Siyuan's body and almost made him lose his mind.

Fortunately, he runs fast. To be more precise, it should be Duoduo who runs fast.

Seeing Shen Siyuan open his eyes, Duoduo, who had been squatting beside him, stood up immediately with a worried look on her face.

"Brother, are you okay?" Duoduo asked, looking up.

"I'm okay, thank you." Shen Siyuan touched her smooth little face.

"Hey, you're welcome."

Duoduo was very happy to be able to help Shen Siyuan.

"Okay, go play with Doudou and Xiaoyue first."

After Shen Siyuan finished speaking, he directly absorbed Duoduo into the Wanhun Banner.

At this moment, Shen Siyuan took a peek at the situation inside the banner. Xiaoyue and Doudou were playing in the playground, and several adults were strolling around the mall with happy faces.

Shen Siyuan directly sent Duoduo to Doudou and the others, and then didn't care about her anymore.

Instead, he focused his attention on the clouded leopard ceramic doll he brought back.

This clouded leopard ceramic figurine is the size of an adult's arm and is crudely made. It can't even be considered a work of art. The black spots on its body make it look like a domestic cat, except that its face is slightly longer, making it look a bit more ferocious.

It looks worthless, but it is actually the evil god. It is unknown how long ago that it was worshipped by some tribe or ethnic group in Qionghai. Over time, it gained divinity and eventually became a god that protects one side.

What are gods? Gods are actually tools to satisfy human selfish desires. They are the product of desires, whether positive or negative, they are all selfish desires.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as the natural spirits born from heaven and earth, who may be the real gods.

However, no matter whether it is a natural spirit born from birth or an acquired spirit born from human beings' worship of incense and offerings, as long as it possesses divinity, it is an extraordinary existence, touching the rules of heaven and immortal.

Of course, this is an exaggeration. For example, the mountain god of a certain mountain will disappear as the mountain changes with the times, so how can there be any mountain god?

But as long as the objects that embody their divinity are still there and people continue to offer incense to them, they will be resurrected again and remain immortal in this way.

So, although this evil god was killed by Shen Siyuan, his divinity is still there. As long as he is worshipped with incense, a new god will be born. But it is hard to say whether it will be the original evil god in armor and shaped like a general.

Shen Siyuan naturally would not be kind enough to re-enshrine this pottery idol, because its divinity is a great tonic for the Ten Thousand Souls Banner. This is also the real reason why Shen Siyuan was willing to take the risk and go to the underworld to kill it.

The Ten Thousand Souls Banner devours one divinity, which is equivalent to devouring tens of thousands of ordinary souls.

So Shen Siyuan's mind moved, and the Ten Thousand Souls Banner flew out from his sea of ​​consciousness and floated above the pottery figurine in his hand. Immediately, strands of blue light were drawn from the pottery figurine and sucked into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

The originally broken and damaged parts of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner were repaired at a speed visible to the naked eye. There was even a brilliant divine light on it, as if water was flowing, which looked extremely magical. Its effect far exceeded that of the repair by Shen Siyuan using merit.

After all, although merits are good, they are too little, and when it comes to restoration, they are naturally not as good as divinity.

The process was very quick, only a few seconds, and the pottery doll weathered into a handful of clay in Shen Siyuan's hands, completely disappearing from this world.

Looking at the repaired Ten Thousand Souls Banner, Shen Siyuan was overjoyed. If a few more mountain gods came, the restoration of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner would be just around the corner.

Moreover, the repaired Ten Thousand Souls Banner finally regained some power and could completely suppress the evil thoughts in his sea of ​​consciousness. Next time when he encountered that evil creature, he would not run away at the first sight without any ability to resist.

However, he couldn't rely solely on the Ten Thousand Souls Banner. Shen Siyuan was thinking about whether he should practice another self-defense technique. His current means of attack were the Five Elements Magnetic Sword, which was unparalleled in killing, so he didn't need to consider anything else.

The means of escape include magnetic escape and five elements escape. As derivative techniques of the "Five Elements Magnetic Sword", as long as you spend some time, you will definitely achieve something.

The only thing he lacks is the means to protect himself. If he can cultivate the "Eighteen Phases of a Great Arhat" to the sixteenth phase and develop a Vajra Body, his defense will truly be unparalleled in the world. Regarding the evil he encountered today, he can completely consider killing the opponent instead of turning around and running away.

But now I haven’t accomplished it yet, I’m nothing, not to mention the cultivation speed is too slow and takes too long.

Shen Siyuan's consciousness sank into the sea of ​​​​knowledge, and he began to look through the memories of the Nine Nether Demon Lord.

The vast memory of the Nine Nether Demon Lord contains many cultivation techniques.

The methods he had seen before, such as "The Zen Sound of the Heavenly Dragon", "The Sword of Seven Emotions", and "The Six Desire Heavens", flashed through his mind one by one.

When it comes to dealing with the evil and demonic energy that can arouse people's evil thoughts, bad ideas, lust and all other desires, the most suitable method is probably the Buddhist practice.

Or you can directly practice the magic skills, use evil as nourishment, use your own six desires as foundation, and transform yourself into the six desires demon.

This path is actually the easiest to take. The only bad thing is that Shen Siyuan will become a devil and sink forever in the sea of ​​desire.

Is this path bad? In fact, it is very good. The devil's way is also a way.

However, you need to liberate your nature, do whatever you want, and no longer restrain any desires.

With his current abilities, not to mention destroying the world, he would probably plunge the world into chaos and turn it into a complete demonic realm.

This is what Shen Siyuan doesn't want.

Finally, Shen Siyuan chose a visualization technique with a simple name, called "Sun Observation Method". As the name suggests, it means to visualize the sun.

This method has nothing to do with Buddhism. It is a practice of a small sect called Visualization Sect in the wilderness. The Visualization Sect believes that all things in nature have great power. By visualizing all things in nature and getting close to them, one can naturally gain the great power of all things.

They visualize the wind, the clouds, the sun, the moon, the stars, etc., and therefore possess all kinds of incredible abilities.

However, this also made it coveted by the Nine Nether Demon Lord. After seizing the technique for research, he came to believe that it was actually a method derived from the Taoist inner scene reflection. Although magical, it had no way to reach the sky.

What is fake is fake and can never be real, but it is not without its merits.

After practicing this technique, the mind will have a place to rest, and if you stay focused on the origin and oneness of the universe, you will naturally not be easily shaken by inner demons and evil thoughts.

And after achieving a small success, one can also develop various magical skills such as controlling the wind, riding the clouds, escaping from light, etc.

However, because there is no spiritual energy in this world, these methods may not be able to be used. But it should be fine to use them to calm the mind. At worst, you can use merit to catalyze it.

Shen Siyuan decided on a path, but did not start practicing immediately, because the best way to practice the "Sun Viewing Method" was to face the sun and use the inner scene to reflect the outer scene, which was somewhat similar to the landscaping technique of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

In fact, the three thousand great ways are intertwined and have something in common with each other.

And now what we need to do is.

Turn off the lights.

go to bed.

Silent all night.
