Chapter 180 Fighting Buddha
For a long time, before coming to Flower Fruit Mountain, everyone on the roadside thought that the Buddha position that the Great Sage was given was just a rank, a status, and had no important connection with cultivation.

Now, after learning some details through the words of the Long-Armed Ape, Lu Bian was surprised to discover that the Great Sage was not only conferred the title of "Buddha," but he himself had also awakened to become a Buddha.

The "awakened one" is the Buddha.

I discussed Buddhism with Shi Tianwu by the roadside.

Shi Tianwu explained to the roadside in simple terms what Buddha is. Buddha is like the player who completes the game, someone who has finished the entire game but returns to save other players. They have seen through the essence of the "game," are completely awakened, and are no longer led by the nose by the "game quests."

Human life is a sea of ​​suffering, and everyone struggles and is tormented by suffering in this sea of ​​suffering.

The Great Sage became a Buddha, and "winning the battle" was the path he took to achieve Buddhahood.

According to speculation from the roadside, the Great Sage told the Long-Armed Ape that if they walked the same path he had taken on his journey to the West, they would receive his complete set of skills. The core of the teachings was likely the enlightenment method of "fighting and winning," rather than specific supernatural powers such as the Seventy-Two Transformations or the Somersault Cloud.

He shook his head by the roadside.

He started doing reading comprehension exercises again.

Perhaps the Great Sage didn't think too much about it and just did it on a whim.

But if it's just about being spontaneous, then the Great Sage's Buddha-nature is terrifyingly high.

Master Tianwu described his understanding of the state after attaining Buddhahood: "Eat when hungry, sleep when tired," do what you need to do, and stop having any mental turmoil.

Retracing the journey to the West will certainly not be possible to completely follow in the footsteps of those who came before. This imperfection is just like the incompleteness of the scriptures brought back from the west. There is no perfect thing in the world.

The Great Sage probably wouldn't want someone to completely copy his abilities to appear.

To date, no one has appeared who claims to be a disciple of the Great Sage, the only reason being that the Great Sage does not want to have disciples.

"I'm going."

Chenxiang spoke.

"Where are you going?" someone asked from the roadside.

“Since the Great Sage has left this option, then I will not be foolish enough to wait for the Great Sage to return on Flower Fruit Mountain,” Chenxiang said.

“If that’s the decision, then I no longer need to protect you. Chenxiang, you should walk this path on your own,” he said by the roadside.

“Godfather…” Chenxiang looked at the roadside.

"The skills I've imparted to you have reached the twenty-fifth level. You just need to become stronger on your own. There's not much more I can teach you."

"From now on, you'll have to figure out and learn from these two books on your own."

He pulled out two books from the roadside and handed them to Chenxiang: one was the "Dharma Sutra," and the other was "Ultimate Hell Path" written by Shi Tianwu.

The gibbon looked around the roadside in confusion.

He clearly felt there was nothing in his clothes, so where did those two books come from? He didn't even realize he had used any supernatural powers.

"Ah."

Chenxiang accepted the two manuals. He already knew the "Damo Sutra" by heart, but this was the first time he had ever seen "Ultimate Hell Path".

"Are you just going to abandon this?" the Fourth Princess asked, pointing to the roadside.

"This is the difference between dads taking care of children and moms taking care of children," he said to the fourth princess by the roadside.

"Chenxiang, your godmother will accompany you on this journey," the Fourth Princess said to Chenxiang.

“Godmother, there’s no need to trouble yourself. I can manage on my own,” Chenxiang said.

"How old are you now?!" The Fourth Princess looked at Chenxiang.

“I am eleven years old,” Chenxiang replied.

"Do you know how many demons and dangers we will encounter along the way?" the fourth princess asked.

“If you’re alone on the road and encounter danger, you won’t even be able to call for help,” the Fourth Princess said.

"Will not."

“As long as I shout my godfather’s name in my heart, he will definitely hear me,” Chenxiang said.

"Really?" The fourth princess turned her head to look at the roadside.

"uncertain."

“I’ve got it…” “Chenxiang, I’ll teach you a trick.”

"If you need help, send your magnetic signature into the sky!"

"That way I'll definitely be able to feel it."

By the roadside, he gathered the magnetic field power in his hands and sent a [magnetic signature] containing his own "magnetic field sense" into the sky.

A white light shone in the sky, and Chenxiang instantly sensed the unique magnetic field by the roadside. Upon closer inspection, he saw a peculiar symbol hanging in the sky. Reading the [Magnetic Field Signature], he found that the magnetic field contained information emanating from the roadside.

After studying for a while, Chenxiang was able to send out his own [magnetic field signature], and learned how to convey messages by putting them into his [magnetic field signature].

The Fourth Princess and the Long-Armed Ape saw Chenxiang and the roadside looking up at the sky, so they also looked up at the sky, but there was nothing there.

[Magnetic field signature] Only those with agarwood and those by the roadside can sense it, and it can be seen in the sky. Others may need to be highly skilled in supernatural abilities to detect it.

"this is for you."

"Godfather, why are you giving me this dragon-patterned cauldron?"

"If you want to get something to eat on the road, how can you do without a pot?"

Chenxiang took the Dragon Pattern Cauldron, took out the Erhai Moon, and placed the Dragon Pattern Cauldron into the Erhai Moon's mirror space.

Erhai Moon is a celestial mirror that has recognized Chenxiang as its master. Its mirror space can be used for storage, and when fighting an enemy, it can also trap the enemy in the mirror world.

Chenxiang doesn't need to worry about luggage when he sets off alone; he can put all his luggage into the magic mirror.

However, treasures cannot be stored away; the Lotus Lantern must still be worn on one's person and cannot be placed in the moonlit Erhai Lake.

"I almost forgot about the Lotus Lantern," the Fourth Princess said. "Chenxiang, do you know how to use the Lotus Lantern?"

“I don’t know how to use the Lotus Lantern,” Chenxiang replied.

"Didn't your mother teach you that?" the fourth princess asked.

"No."

"All I know is that when I'm in danger, the Lotus Lantern will emit light to protect me."

“Before I met my godfather, the Lotus Lantern saved me from several crises,” Chenxiang said.

Chenxiang picked up the Lotus Lantern and examined it carefully.

Suddenly, the Lotus Lantern emitted light on its own.

The light of the Lotus Lantern enveloped Chenxiang, and the precious light separated Chenxiang from everyone else.

In the light, Chenxiang saw a blurry human figure.

Chenxiang recognized the blurry figure at a glance as his mother, whom he had been longing for day and night.

"Mother……?"

"Agarwood..."

"I'll teach you how to use the Lotus Lantern..."

Enveloped in light, the ethereal voice of the Third Holy Mother reached Chenxiang's ears. Chenxiang carefully memorized the incantation to activate the Lotus Lantern and understood how to refine the Lotus Lantern for his own use.

"Agarwood..."

"Mother!!"

As the light faded, Chenxiang, heartbroken, held the Lotus Lantern.

Chenxiang only realized today that the Third Holy Mother had been watching over his growth through the Lotus Lantern.

His mother had always been able to hear the things he confided in Baolian Lantern.

"What's going on with the light from the Lotus Lantern?" the Fourth Princess asked.

Isolated by the divine light of the Lotus Lantern, neither the roadside nor the Fourth Princess knew what Chenxiang had encountered.

"I saw my mother..."
