Chapter 934: Great Sun Tathagata

~9 min read 1,634 words

Hanging Temple, Floating Stairs.

The white mist in the high sky was ethereal, and the snow accumulated over the years submerged the insteps.

The old monk, Yang Yang Dongxiong, Long Yao... all cast encouraging glances.

Liang Qu looked up at the temple gate.

The two golden characters "Hanging" were brilliant, as if hiding infinite mysteries. Looking at them made one's heart sway. Even if one closed their eyes, it was like a candle flame shining in the heart.

Never imagined that on the first visit to one of the five great orthodoxies, before entering the mountain gate, he would first encounter a life-bound Buddha trial that is rare in a hundred years!

He withdrew his gaze.

"Abbot Master Di Xian, how long will this trial last?"

Master Di Xian twisted the Buddha beads: "According to past precedents, at most three days."

"A gift from an elder cannot be declined. I cannot let the high monk's relic be wasted. I am willing to try!"

"Come with me."

Master Di Xian stepped out of the floating stairs and drifted down.

Liang Qu exhaled a mouthful of white mist, said goodbye to the relatives and friends on the stairs, followed closely behind Abbot Master Di Xian, and jumped down, falling decisively towards the palm of the golden Buddha.

The figure disappeared into the clouds and mist.

"Can he seize the Root Buddha?"

Suddenly, a strange voice came. Yang Yang Dongxiong and others left on the stairs looked back and found that a middle-aged man with a square face and a resolute appearance had appeared beside the Golden Vajra Master Mingwang at some point.

"The Six Demon Trials vary from person to person. Whether one seizes the Life-Bound Buddha or not depends on fate." The old monk wore a patchwork robe and sat on the stairs, "Talent is stronger than will. At that time, we may need the adult's help."

"I wish to observe his immortal technique killing move."

"Give it first, then ask for it. Courtesy demands reciprocity. The matter is not difficult." The old monk said a sentence, and seeing the people on the stairs confused, he pointed to the middle-aged man, "Dragon-Elephant Venerable King, famous."

The middle-aged man turned his head and nodded lightly.

Admitting it personally, everyone was shocked.

Dragon-Elephant Martial Saint?!

When did he arrive?

The long wind whistled.

The white mist flowed along the curves of the clothes on his body, leaving behind wisps of ethereal long smoke.

Liang Qu and Master Di Xian walked through the clouds and fell to the palm of the Buddha. The golden light flowed under their feet, and the flesh patterns were clearly visible, presenting the appearance of a thousand-spoke wheel treasure. The five fingers were like pillars supporting the sky, and there were webbed membranes between each finger, like the webs of a wild goose king, golden in color, and the patterns were like damask.

Outside the sky-supporting fingers was the vast sea of clouds, neither able to see clearly below nor above.

Liang Qu raised his hand and wiped.

The water mist evaporated, the sea of clouds parted, like a glass wiped with a rag that had produced dense foam, clearly revealing a corner of the ground.

The mountains were lush and rolling, the Crouching Dragon Temple sat in the middle, surrounded by rivers, the wide river channel was crowded with boats, orderly moving forward, and in the middle of the temple was a huge Crouching Elephant River, where white elephants played in the lake.

Looking further.

On the road, one could see people devoutly worshiping the golden Buddha everywhere.

The so-called No-Abode Nirvana is a nirvana that does not dwell in life and death nor in nirvana in order to liberate all sentient beings. According to the "Cheng Weishi Lun Volume 10", this is the highest Buddhist fruit of the Mahayana!

Truly a supreme beauty.

There was no lack of geniuses coming and going. I don't know how many people added the Great Buddha image to their true qi.

Master Di Xian walked and guided, walking slowly down the palm of the Buddha, taking advantage of this gap, talking while walking.

"Life-Bound Buddha is a general term. The actual seizures are different, divided into three grades: Life-Bound Arhat, Life-Bound Bodhisattva, and Life-Bound Buddha."

Liang Qu nodded.

The Buddhist school has three realms.

Self-awakening, awakening others, and supreme awakening, also known as perfect awakening. Arhats lack the latter two, Bodhisattvas lack the latter one, and only Buddhas have all three.

Cultivating "Dragon-Subduing Tiger-Subduing Vajra Skill", basic common sense, he absolutely understands it.

"Every Arhat, Bodhisattva, and Buddha has different heavenly protection. Although this is a bit utilitarian, it is better to have protection, and the higher the better. However, no matter what kind, one must pass the Six Demon Trials. The demons have five harms..."

Liang Qu answered: "Life-taking, obstacles, annoyance, destruction of good roots, and retention."

"Good."

"Abbot Master Di Xian, in No-Abode Nirvana, how many Arhats are there? How many Bodhisattvas? How many Buddhas?"

"There are five hundred Arhats. Among these five hundred, there are eighteen Arhats, eighteen Bodhisattvas, eight Bodhisattvas, eight Buddhas. Among the eight Buddhas, there is one Root Buddha."

Liang Qu pondered for a moment: "Great Sun Tathagata?"

"Brother Master Mingwang said you specialize in Buddhist skills and don't read Buddhist scriptures. I don't think that's entirely true."

Liang Qu was a bit embarrassed by the praise.

All Buddhas and Bodhisattvas come from the Great Sun Tathagata. Since it is the Root Buddha, it should be the Great Sun Tathagata. "Looking at it this way, Life-Bound Buddha should actually be divided into six grades?"

"Indeed."

Apart from the three grades in the broad sense, the eighteen Arhats among the five hundred Arhats, the eight Bodhisattvas among the eighteen Bodhisattvas, and the Root Buddha among the eight Buddhas are all obviously better existences in the same level.

The golden wheel vortexes in the golden Buddha's hands also have different brightness and size. Looking closely, there are five hundred faint candle flames, eighteen light bulbs, and eight small suns on top.

I don't know what grade I will seize, what effect it will have...

Five hundred Arhats are not enough. They are obviously making up the numbers. Even if there is an effect, it is limited. The wishes of millions of believers are not that exaggerated.

Liang Qu was both nervous and expectant.

Breaking through to this point, sending the old monk a Creation Great Medicine is absolutely a huge profit!

Abbot Master Di Xian asked with a smile: "Benefactor, are you thinking about what kind of Life-Bound Buddha you will seize on this trip?"

"To tell the truth, Master, I yearn for it."

"Before, we discussed in the temple, hoping you could seize the Great Sun Tathagata."

Liang Qu was stunned.

He scratched his temples.

"Abbot Master Di Xian, throughout the ages, how many people have entered No-Abode Nirvana and seized the eight Buddhas?"

"Throughout the ages, one or two out of ten."

"And the Root Buddha..."

"None out of ten. Since the birth of No-Abode Nirvana, no one has yet seized the Root Buddha." Master Di Xian changed the subject, "Do you know what the protection of the Great Sun Tathagata is?"

"Please enlighten me, Master."

"Where the golden light shines, all ritual laws are dissolved."

Liang Qu pondered.

"Using Benefactor's experience to compare seizing the Great Sun Tathagata, Haruhan's Great Black Heaven opening its eyes will only be like a breeze on your face from now on. The Ghost Mother's Yin-Killing Ghost Mother of the Ghost Mother Sect, once illuminated by the golden light, will never be able to cycle through life and death again."

"This..."

The Ghost Mother's cycle of life and death is a secret...

"It is here."

Abbot Master Di Xian stopped.

Liang Qu suppressed his surging thoughts and the confusion about Master Di Xian's source of information, and quietly looked at the surroundings.

This is the meditative Buddha hand in front of the golden Buddha's chest. Looking up, one can see the white hair between the eyebrows. Someone has been waiting here for a long time, totaling five people.

Four men and one woman, each with their own characteristics.

Five great orthodoxies?

While Liang Qu was looking at the five people, the five people were also looking at Liang Qu.

Ordinary.

This ordinariness is not appearance. The Sword Disciple of the Profound Heaven Sect, Feng Ying, looked like a sharp sword out of its sheath, sharp and unparalleled, making people's eyes sour and tearful; the Buddhist Son of the Hanging Temple, Huai Kong, seemed to face a big lake, making people feel calm...

Liang Qu clearly had a higher realm, but apart from the heroic posture of a normal martial artist, he had no characteristics, and even the rumored good use of the spear could not be seen.

The only thing worth mentioning is that calm and natural air.

"Is it because the realm is higher?"

The others felt awe in their hearts, not daring to underestimate him in the slightest.

The elders had warned them when they came that No-Abode Nirvana was opened for Liang Qu. Apart from the Hanging Temple's Buddhist Son who was one of their own to "rub", they all paid a great price to "buy" it.

If it weren't for Liang Qu, they wouldn't even have the chance to buy it.

The white-robed young man stepped forward first.

"Profound Heaven Sect Feng Ying, met the Baron of Baron Xingyi!"

"Little monk Huai Kong, met the Baron of Baron Xingyi."

Four people greeted in turn.

Only a blue-robed young man fell to the end.

"Louguan Terrace Yuan, met Senior Brother Liang."

Hmm?

The other four looked at Yuan in unison.
