Chapter 283
"The Book of Life and Death is guarded by Di Ting."
"It is placed in the back hall of the Ksitigarbha Hall."
Jiang Jian recalled the location of the Book of Life and Death recorded in the original story.
As his thoughts stirred, his figure transformed into light and dissipated, heading toward the Ksitigarbha Hall.
The next moment.
Before the Ksitigarbha Hall.
Jiang Jian appeared, raised his head, and looked at the bronze hall gate that was a thousand feet high.
The door chains hung down from the dome, their ends disappearing into the depths of the earth's veins, and one could not see the end at a glance.
Jiang Jian withdrew his gaze, took out the Ksitigarbha Jade Seal, and opened the hall gate directly!
Boom!
On both sides of the giant gate stood Yinshan guards a hundred feet tall.
Seeing Jiang Jian at this time, these guards all restrained their aura, bowed their heads respectfully, their iron armor clashing like thunder, and they all bowed in unison: "Greetings, Wang Dian!"
Jiang Jian flicked his robe and walked straight into the hall.
The surroundings suddenly became quiet.
"Wheel-Turning King."
A voice broke the silence and entered his ears.
Jiang Jian's gaze tightened, and he looked forward.
What met his eyes was an ancient beast a zhang tall.
It had a dragon body, tiger head, qilin feet, and lion tail, with a tall figure, its body light patterns alternating between bright and dark, and it walked out from the darkness on all four feet.
Jiang Jian's expression was dark, and he said: "Di Ting."
Di Ting walked slowly to the front, its gaze deep, looking down at Jiang Jian, and spoke in human language: "Are you really the Wheel-Turning King?"
As these words were spoken.
Jiang Jian's heart tightened immediately.
Di Ting, an ancient beast born of heaven and earth.
It was born with unfathomable divine abilities, could listen to and observe the heavens and earth, and knew the past and future.
"I am naturally the Wheel-Turning King."
Jiang Jian settled his mind and said.
Di Ting narrowed its eyes, its gaze unreadable.
A moment later.
It said again: "If you were truly the Wheel-Turning King, you wouldn't take away the Book of Life and Death."
After speaking.
Di Ting turned to the side, its claws pointing into the depths of the darkness.
A massive book appeared.
Searing light emanated from it, and the names were dense and countless.
The Book of Life and Death.
It recorded the birth dates and lifespans of the immeasurable living beings in this heaven and earth.
Jiang Jian glanced at the Book of Life and Death, took the Ksitigarbha Jade Seal in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "What do you want to say?"
Di Ting is an ancient beast born of heaven and earth, having practiced under the Bodhisattva for a long time, and had long since achieved great cultivation.
With the Wheel-Turning King's current cultivation, he was not its opponent.
"You don't need to be nervous."
Di Ting sighed, "I know a lot, but there is very little I can say."
Jiang Jian frowned, looked at it for a moment, and the sense of fragmentation in the depths of his soul suddenly became more intense.
He could almost be certain.
This ancient beast born of heaven and earth before him was definitely a living being that truly existed!
"Di Ting."
Jiang Jian spoke suddenly, "Is this world real?"
As soon as these words were spoken.
The vast Ksitigarbha Hall suddenly became deathly silent.
Di Ting first opened its eyes wide, its pupils contracted, then returned to normal, looking at Jiang Jian with interest, without speaking.
Jiang Jian frowned slightly and asked again: "Do you truly exist?"
This time.
Di Ting did not remain silent, but nodded and said: "I am naturally real."
Jiang Jian's heart trembled.
The sense of fragmentation from just now surged again, almost reaching its limit!
Reality and falsehood seemed to be transforming back and forth.
Making Jiang Jian's mind have a moment of trance.
"You can call this place a fragment world."
Di Ting spoke again.
Jiang Jian's heart was shocked.
His thoughts and emotions had already stirred up a huge wave.
A short while later.
Jiang Jian settled his mind and asked: "What is a fragment world? Is it a fragment of the world?"
Di Ting said: "A fragment world can be understood as a playback of the past."
"Things that have happened in the world, things that have existed, will leave traces."
"If there is incredible power to restore the traces."
"A corresponding fragment world will be formed."
It looked at Jiang Jian, smiling but not smiling, "After you leave, this fragment world will completely collapse."
Jiang Jian asked in a deep voice: "Could it be that everything here once existed in reality?"
Di Ting thought for a moment and shook its head: "The reality you are in and the world I am in may not be in the same space-time."
While speaking.
Its body gradually became transparent.
"I have to go."
Di Ting said softly.
After speaking.
This ancient beast born of heaven and earth had its figure completely dissipated.
Jiang Jian stood quietly, silent for a long time.
Di Ting's words just now had caused some impact on his original worldview.
At the Li Hai Dragon Palace.
Jiang Jian had once discovered.
The consciousness of Li Hai Long Jun was truly too real.
Now that he was in the story world of the "Ksitigarbha Ten Wheels Sutra," this feeling was even clearer!
Suddenly.
Jiang Jian's heart trembled, his hair stood on end, and his scalp felt numb!
Just because out of the corner of his eye, he actually saw a human figure in the corner of the Ksitigarbha Hall!
That person was wearing mysterious black Buddhist robes, with a cold expression.
It was actually Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva!
Jiang Jian stood where he was, not daring to move at all, and a terrifying sense of fragmentation swept over him, almost swallowing him completely!
"Evil beast."
A cold voice entered his ears.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva stretched out his finger and grabbed into the void.
A miserable howl came, shrill and piercing, immediately breaking the silence in the hall!
Di Ting's zhang-tall beast body was actually grabbed out of the void by the Bodhisattva's palm!
Crack!
Slender fingers swept across, and its body was cut into hundreds of pieces, flesh and blood splashing!
Di Ting's massive head rolled to Jiang Jian's feet, its copper-bell-like eyes opened to the maximum, staring fixedly at Jiang Jian.
At the broken neck, a column of blood sprayed out.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Jian's head buzzed.
In an instant.
He forced himself to calm down, turned his head, and looked at the Bodhisattva not far away.
"It is not the real Di Ting."
The Bodhisattva said softly, "It didn't leave just now, but hid in your soul, wanting to leave here with you."
Hearing this.
Jiang Jian forcibly settled his mind.
The experience just now had completely exceeded his cognition.
A moment later.
Jiang Jian regained his calm, his thoughts surging, and he vaguely had a guess, asking in a low voice: "Does the Bodhisattva mean that it wanted to go to the reality I am in?"
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva nodded and said: "After you leave, this place will completely perish, and it will naturally die too."
"But it stayed here for too long, and over time, it regarded itself as the real Di Ting, and even forgot that it was just an illusion."
"It didn't want to die."
His voice gradually faded away.
Darkness surged in, swallowing his figure as well.
Silently.
In the Ksitigarbha Hall, only Jiang Jian remained.
He was silent for a moment, walked into the darkness, used the Ksitigarbha Jade Seal, and put away the Book of Life and Death.
Crack!
A world-cracking sound suddenly came.
Although he was in the Ksitigarbha Hall.
Jiang Jian could still clearly hear.
The miserable howls of those Yakshas and impermanence spirits within the Yinshan realm.
As well as the howls of countless sinful ghosts in the eighteen levels of hell.
Amidst the loud cracking sound, the firmament was covered with cracks, spreading rapidly like a spider web!
The Ten Halls of Yinshan shook, and the majestic buildings collapsed one after another!
Even the unbreakable eighteen levels of hell began a terrifying collapse!
"Leave quickly."
Abruptly, the voice of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva came from the depths of his soul.
Jiang Jian held the Ksitigarbha Jade Seal, and one after another, pitch-black streams of light emerged, protecting him firmly within.
"Bodhisattva, will we be able to meet again?"
He asked suddenly.
There was no response.
The world shattered even faster.
Everything in all directions was being crazily swallowed by the void!
The Ten Wang Dian, ox-headed and horse-faced spirits, black and white impermanence.
All were annihilated in the depths of the void silently.
The surrounding void surged toward the Ksitigarbha Hall at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The white light emitted by the Ksitigarbha Jade Seal became even more intense.
In the end, it was like a sun!
Jiang Jian stayed within it, watching everything around him sink into the void one after another, and his gaze became dark.
Just before the void roared and swallowed everything outside the light shield.
Jiang Jian vaguely heard a sentence.
It was just that.
Just at this moment, a pulling force came.
His soul was in a trance for a moment inadvertently.
As if a lifetime had passed.
I don't know how much time had passed.
The surrounding darkness faded away inch by inch.
Jiang Jian opened his eyes.
The majestic hall before him was the Ksitigarbha Hall.
It was just that.
This was the Ksitigarbha Hall of the Yinshan Wonder Realm.
The previous black and white vortex had completely dissipated.
The scene in the hall was clear at a glance.
"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva."
Jiang Jian said in a low voice.
He walked into the hall and looked at the black gold statue above.
He was dressed in mysterious black Buddhist robes, looking down at the Ten Halls of Yinshan, with neither sorrow nor joy.
A short while later.
Jiang Jian turned around and walked out of the Ksitigarbha Hall.
The guiding messenger's figure twisted and appeared before his eyes.
Its expression was excited, and it said loudly: "From this moment on, you are the master of the Yinshan Wonder Realm!"
It took out a token and held it up respectfully with both hands, "By decree, the title is Yinshan Ksitigarbha!"
Jiang Jian was expressionless, flicked his sleeves to push it aside, and said: "I don't want to use this title for now."
The guiding messenger was stunned, immediately realizing that it might have flattered the wrong person, and hurriedly remedied: "As the master of Yinshan, it is not impossible to change the title."
"How about Yinshan True Monarch?"
"Yinshan Superior Lord is also good."
Hearing this.
Jiang Jian said coldly: "If the cultivation has not reached it, yet one falsely claims to be a True Monarch, wouldn't that be a laughingstock?"
After speaking.
Jiang Jian turned around directly and left the Ksitigarbha Hall.
Behind him.
The guiding messenger looked at his back, its originally fawning expression suddenly turning gloomy.
It looked coldly at Jiang Jian, but its heart was full of doubts.
"Not long ago, that lord clearly entrusted a dream to me, saying he would appear at this time, control the rules of the Yinshan Wonder Realm, and set me free."
"Why can I sense for a long time, but can't perceive anything at all?"
It frowned tightly, unable to figure it out.
Afterward.
It used the Yinshan rules it controlled to probe around the Ksitigarbha Hall in every way, but still found no clues.
"Since that lord is unreliable."
"I can only use my own method."
The guiding messenger stopped its actions, smiled coldly, and quietly hid its figure.
At the same time.
Deep in Yinshan.
Jiang Jian held the Ksitigarbha Jade Seal and had long since seen the guiding messenger's behavior clearly.
"This guy controls a small part of the Yinshan rules and is used to being half a master, yet he doesn't know that the master of Yinshan can monitor the entire realm at any time."
Jiang Jian looked at the light screen before him, unable to help but feel speechless.
He didn't expect that the guiding messenger, who looked quite smart before, would be so stupid at this time.
