Open the door, fellow countryman, we are one.

Chapter 78: Formal Contact with the Future Kingdom

Gu Tianyin listened to the sound of the piano, and in a trance, she seemed to have transformed into a fairy in white, floating up to the sky.

The mountains and rivers are moving away, and the earth is shrinking.

She ascended to the sky, overlooking the mountains and rivers, but felt an indescribable loneliness.

The mountains and rivers have changed, the world has morphed, and the familiar plants and trees, teachers, friends and relatives of the past have long disappeared in the long river of time.

Lonely and eternal, only oneself, sitting and watching the flowers bloom and fall.

After the song ended, she took a long time to come back to her senses, staring at her blankly: "Feixian, you really understand the meaning of the word immortal, but it is only the immortal in the song."

"They all want to listen to this flying fairy song and experience the eternal and lonely life of the immortals."

Yuyin said slowly, "Everyone in the world is seeking immortality. The mindsets of those who listen to the music are different. Some believe that this is how immortals should be, living an eternal and lonely life, watching the world change."

"Some people believe that immortals set the rules of heaven and earth, and all living beings act according to the immortals' wishes."

"There are also a few who believe that an eternity of loneliness is worse than enjoying the moment and seizing the present moment. What do you think?"

"How can an ant observe the sky?" Gu Tianyin said calmly, "Before becoming an immortal, no matter how much I speculate, there is no way to verify it. I should walk the path ahead well. That is what I should do."

She came from the next era and even came to the future, so she naturally knew that it was impossible to become an immortal in this era.

Therefore, she doesn’t care what the immortal is like. The most important thing is to walk the path ahead.

Yuyin nodded: "Yes, it is indeed necessary to take the road ahead. So how do you plan to go?"

"Improve your cultivation, then go find your master and help him fight for destiny." Gu Tianyin said.

"I can't interfere in the fight for destiny, otherwise it will only harm him."

Yuyin pondered and said, "You really should work hard to improve yourself. When the Heavenly Road opens, you can go with him to open the Heavenly Gate."

"Open the Heaven Gate?" Gu Tianyin didn't know and bowed, "Please give me some advice."

"There is a road in the world that leads to the Heavenly Palace, but the gate is tightly closed. It is rumored that there is a secret to immortality in the Heavenly Palace. Those who have been chosen by the Heavenly Mandate throughout the ages have wanted to open the gate to the Heavenly Palace and seek immortality."

Yuyin said: "If Li Yi wins the destiny, he will naturally go to open the gate of heaven."

"I should lend her a helping hand. How did you get to know him?" Gu Tianyin asked.

"I played a piece for him before and met him. He said I was an old friend. I've heard this countless times."

Yuyin whispered, "When I left Yunzhong City, I was surrounded and attacked by various forces. He came to my aid simply because we were old friends."

"I still didn't believe it, but later I met Chen Zibo, and he called me Gu Tianyin. Only then did I realize that he really had an old friend who looked exactly like me."

Yuyin looked her over, as if she could see through her, then her eyes fell on the guqin: "I never thought that our guqins are the same. If it weren't for the age difference, I would have thought we were twins."

"I also want to know what the relationship between you and me is, and why there is a special connection between us." Gu Tianyin said.

This is so strange. Why do people from two different eras have such unique feelings?

Especially, they look exactly the same.

Could it be that there really is such a thing as past lives?
"Try practicing my method. My method is born with you."

Yuyin also wanted to figure out what this feeling was.

"Born together?" Gu Tianyin asked in surprise, "Are you someone who knows it by nature?"

"I just know the method, the music scores of Feixian and so on." Yuyin said.

"That's amazing." Gu Tianyin said.

Yuyin is not a person from later generations. She was born with a guqin and practiced the Dharma.

It’s a pity that I don’t have a destiny. If I had a destiny, I would be a true child of destiny.

When Gu Tianyin accepted her method, he actually felt a sense of familiarity, as if he had seen it before.

The far west, the holy land of bliss.

In this era, this is the Buddhist land and a holy place in the hearts of all Buddhist disciples.

The Red Flame Bird arrived pulling the carriage and saw the Buddhist land shrouded in Buddha's light.

What meets the eye is the endless golden rice fields.

A clear stream flows slowly, and a farmer draws water from the river.

Once you enter here, you will be enveloped by the Buddha's light, as if a heavy burden has been lifted off your shoulders, your whole body will feel relaxed, as if you are about to forget all your worries.

Buddha's light extended from the depths of the Buddha's land. An old monk stepped on the light and said, "I am helpless. The Buddha is waiting for me in front of the Buddha."

"Master, thank you for your help." Li Yi walked out of the carriage and returned the greeting.

Green followed him and went deeper into the holy land.

Li Yi looked down and saw many mortals here, most of them enjoying the cool air, while some were worshiping Buddha and chanting scriptures.

A small number of people were carrying water and tending to the rice fields, making the place look like a paradise.

"I have heard about the Holy Land of Bliss for a long time. It is a place where those who enter will have no worries. I have always longed for it. Today I finally got to see it." Li Yi said.

"Buddha have mercy on me." He put his hands together and smiled, "Young Master, please stay for a while longer."

"Sorry to bother you then." Li Yi also wanted to see the Holy Land of Bliss and perfect his Buddhist cultivation.

The Eight Leaves and Nine Lords, the Eight Divisions of Heaven and Earth, and the Immortal Light of Vairocana Tathagata of the last era all needed Buddhist methods.

Following the old monk Wufa, we arrived at the holy temple, which was located at the foot of the mountain.

The mountain is majestic, but there is no way to climb it. The entire mountain is bound by the Buddhist swastika chain.

Li Yi looked at the chains: "Eight Leaves and Nine Lords? That demon is sealed in the mountain?"

"That's right." Wu Fa was not surprised. It was no secret that the Li family knew these things.

The plaque on the temple is composed of three characters, which are the light of Buddhism and the gathering of immortal light: the hometown of forgetfulness.

There are many Buddhist statues enshrined inside, with Vairocana Tathagata in the center.

An old monk with a long beard, sitting cross-legged on a cushion, facing the Buddha statue, is none other than the contemporary Buddha, Master Wu Nian.

"Master." Li Yi bowed and took out the magic bead: "Here is the magic bead, Master, please seal the demon."

"Amitabha, young master, you have worked hard on your journey." Zen Master Wu Nian took the magic bead.

Inside the magic bead, the voice of the demon soul came: "Little bald donkey, long time no see."

"Amitabha." Zen Master Wu Nian chanted the Buddha's name, but did not continue: "I still ask for your help, young master, to use the Twelve Rainbows of the Golden Crow to strengthen the seal."

"It's time to take action." Li Yi nodded.

The demon soul sneered and said, "Little bastard, this old monk is trying to harm you. He can't seal me. Your Golden Crow Twelve Rainbows can't get out after they go in."

Li Yi frowned. Although he didn't believe what he said, he was still worried and looked at Master Wu Nian.

"Amitabha, the devil is talking nonsense. If that's true, the Li family will stop you from coming to the Buddhist land." Zen Master Wu Nian said.

Li Yi nodded, it was true.

The Li family has been keeping an eye on him and it is impossible that they didn't know that he came to Foxiang.

Leaving the temple, we hiked to the foot of the mountain, where we saw a picture of eight leaves and nine statues.

"The old monk sent the magic bead in, and the young master used the twelve rainbows of the Golden Crow to leave the light of the Golden Crow and integrate it into the Buddha seal." Zen Master Wu Nian said.

Li Yi nodded and summoned the Twelve Rainbows of the Golden Crow.

A brilliant Buddha light appeared in the palm of Zen Master Wu Nian, and the eight-petal and nine-deity picture shone with glory.

The Vairocana Buddha in the center seemed to come alive, emitting Buddha light and taking the magic bead into his hand.

Countless swastika Buddhist seals came from the mountain peaks and merged into it.

Li Yi shot out twelve long rainbows, which merged into the Buddha's light.

Under the guidance of Zen Master Wu Nian, the twelve long rainbows merged perfectly with the Buddha's light without any accidents.

"Little mixed-breed bird, I will come to find you." An old voice came from the statue of Vairocana Buddha.

The light faded and everything returned to normal.

Zen Master Wu Nian looked pale, put away the Buddha's light, and left with Li Yi: "Thank you for your help, young master. You are tired from the journey. Go to the Zen room to rest first. Wufa has prepared fruits and spiritual spring water."

He opened the seal and reinforced it again, which consumed a lot of energy.

Li Yi followed the monk Wufa to the Zen room. The room was filled with abundant energy, the scent of sandalwood, and some fruit and vegetable essences.

These spiritual liquids from fruits and vegetables are all top-quality stuff and will also help him in his practice.

Li Yi drank some, ate a few fruits, and entered into a state of meditation to practice.

Lu Yi stayed in the Zen room next door and practiced in peace.

Half a month passed in a flash.

Li Yi entered into a state of meditation for half a month, and his cultivation level advanced to the middle stage of Illuminating Mountains and Rivers.

He walked out of the meditation room and expressed his desire to study Buddhism.

It was impossible to take him to see Zen Master Wu Nian.

"Zen Master, I want to study Buddhism to enhance my knowledge." Li Yi said.

"Young Master, you are free to read all the methods and scriptures in the Sutra Repository." said Zen Master Wu Nian.

"Thank you, Master." Li Yi thanked him.

Everything in the Sutra Library can be passed on, and the real secrets will not be displayed there.

Li Yi stayed in the Buddhist village and stayed in the Sutra Library without coming out.

During this period, many mortals came to the Sutra Library, but they just borrowed Buddhist scriptures and had no interest in the methods of cultivation.

Living in a Buddhist land, you are free from worries and there is really no need for spiritual practice.

Li Yi found the "Devil and the Eight Immortals Method", which can use the Buddha's light to raise the Devil and the Eight Immortals and raise a Buddha.

There are many insights above that make it easier for him to smelt.

Half a year passed quickly, and Li Yi finally improved his Buddhist cultivation.

He used the twelve rainbows of the Golden Crow, took the meaning of morning light, scorching sun, evening glow and setting sun, and integrated them into the Eight Divisions of Dharma.

It is then encompassed by the Taiping method in the Taixu Sutra.

Eight dragons rose from his sacred star tree and condensed into a sacred Sun Buddha.

However, there was a black spot between the eyebrows of that sacred Buddha.

His thoughts touched the black spot, and a familiar voice rang out: "Little mixed-haired bird, I'm here to see you."

Li Yi's expression darkened. "Who on earth are you? Why are you still here?"

Is there something wrong with the seal?

This thing actually came to find him!

"I've said it before, I'm the secret of heaven." The demon soul laughed and said, "I've never lied to you, but you don't believe me and instead listen to that bald donkey's lies."

Li Yi's face was as cold as ice: "If Zen Master Wu Nian had malicious intentions, how could my Li family not come to warn him?"

"The world has long been a sea of ​​black." The demon soul sneered: "Buddha Village, the Li family, Cloud City, the Southern Demon Clan, and the Taoist sect are all together."

Li Yi remained silent, thinking about his words.

"You have practiced the Great Sun Immortal Light well, but you lack the complete version of the scriptures. How about I pass it on to you if you want to join me?" The demon soul's voice was a little tempting.

"Do you know the Mahavairocana Sutra?" Li Yi frowned even more tightly.

"Of course, there's nothing I don't know about your Great Sun Sutra, the Southern Dragon Transformation Sutra, and the Taoist Taixuan Sutra."

The demon soul said proudly: "As long as you are willing, I can give you everything."

"It should just be a thought for you now. Do you want me to let you out?" Li Yi said.

"No need." The devil said: "Someone will rescue me, but that person will not be you."

"Who?" Li Yi asked in a serious tone.

"I won't tell you this. You just need to know whether you want to go the same way with me?" said the Demon Soul.

"How can I go the same way with you? What are you going to do?" Li Yi said.

"Destroy this deformed world and go find her." said the Demon Soul.

"Who is she?"

Destroying the world, Li Yi was not surprised, because that was what the evil spirit did.

As a demon, it would be abnormal if he didn't want to destroy the world.

The devil soul said: "I don't know, I only know that she is in the mist outside the world, and that Li Tianqiong, the mixed-haired bird, has seen her."

"Is there anything in the world that you don't know?" Li Yi was surprised.

"I know what she's been through, but I don't know where she came from, or her past." Demon Soul said, "It's ridiculous that she accepted Li Tianqiong as her disciple instead of killing him."

"Have a grudge?"

"Li Tianqiong is not worthy. He is Li Tianqiong's ancestor. He has a grudge against her, a feud that will last forever."

"How could one survive that long, the outer mists corroding the immortal light and body?"

"I want to know too." Demon Soul said, "So, I want to go find her."

"I am somewhat interested in what you said, but forget about destroying the world." Li Yi said.

"How about we make a deal?" The demon soul suddenly said, "I'll give you the Great Sun Tathagata Sutra in exchange for your not interfering with that person who came to rescue me, and I might even help."

"What a joke! I sent you in with my own hands, how could I help you out?" Li Yi sneered.

"Okay, if you don't stop me from breaking the seal, even if I win, you must go with me.

If I lose, not only will I lose the Mahavairocana Sutra, but I will also tell you a secret about the Heavenly Palace."

Demonic Soul Road.

Li Yi suddenly felt a little uncertain. This thing knew too much and dared to make such a bet. The person who came to save him must be related to him.

The ancestor of the Li family?
Mo Yaoyao of the future life, or Yuyin of this life?

"It seems that you don't dare to gamble." The demon soul laughed and said, "Don't rush to make a decision. I will give you the Great Sun Tathagata Sutra. I will wait for the day when you agree."

He actually passed the scriptures to Li Yi.

Li Yi regained his consciousness and looked at the contents of the scripture. Although it was not complete, being able to grow a forget-me-not tree and cultivate to the peak of immortal light was the limit of this era.

According to legend, the forget-me-not tree is one of the sacred trees in Buddhism. It is golden and brilliant, and can make people worry-free.

No wonder, people in the Holy Land of Bliss are carefree.

"Why is the Demon Soul so determined to destroy the world? Should all these top forces be killed? I need to find out."

Li Yi was in deep thought.

It is difficult to investigate these major forces, and Green Clothes is of no use.

Now, it seems that the only person who can be helped is Hua Feihong, a person from the future generation.

After leaving the Sutra Library, Li Yi found Lu Yi, took the communication jade token, and sent a message to Hua Feihong: "Do you know where Mo Yaoyao is in this life?"

"She's from the southern demon tribe. Her cultivation is good, but she's not from the old dragon lineage, so her life is not easy." Hua Feihong said.

"I understand." Li Yi agreed.

He couldn't completely trust Hua Feihong, but he could trust Mo Yaoyao.

"Yun Mo wants to see you." Hua Feihong said.

"Yun Mo? Who is he?" Li Yi asked.

"You don't know that he's a diplomat from Yun Country?" Hua Feihong was stunned. Yun Mo is now a well-known figure on Blue Star. Even if Li Yi entered early, he should still pay attention to the news on Blue Star, right?

"Time and place." Li Yi said lightly.

Hua Feihong said, "Go find Mo Yaoyao. Yun Mo will be waiting for you there. This will be considered our Yun Nation's official contact with you."

"Okay." Li Yi agreed.

He also looks forward to formal contact with future kingdoms.
