Chapter 1073: Backlash (6800 7000 Supplement)
Beside a certain tributary of the Underworld River.
Clusters of serene Udumbara flowers bloomed, yet there was no one to admire them.
The Snow Eagle Temple Disciples who arrived here all prostrated themselves on the ground, chanting scriptures incessantly, hoping to appease the wrath of 'Vipasyin Buddha'!
The Underworld had already trembled several times, signifying that this Buddha's fury had reached its limit.
A mere ripple of the aftermath could cause their deaths!
The Drow elf—Zhuoma, however, stood to one side, wondering what she was thinking.
"Why have neither Sangji nor Zhaxi come?"
A yellow-robed monk with a short buzz cut suddenly spoke: "They are Disciples personally cultivated by the Great Vehicle and Great Compassion Dharma Kings; they shouldn't be unable to cross the barrier of life and death reincarnation, should they?"
Abbot Kongxing, however, remained unhurried, turning his prayer wheel and chanting the Secret Mantra, drawing upon the supreme Buddha power of the Mother of Light to maintain the opening of the portal.
Zhuoma immediately kowtowed: "Master... Master... spare me!"
Once she collected the fundamental scriptures she wanted to see, she could just pat her bottom and leave.
Previously, as a Buddha Son of a different lineage, although all Dharmas could be transmitted, only the three fundamental scriptures were difficult to glimpse in their entirety.
Dharma King David, however, put on an angry expression: "You accepted my order, yet you fear danger and are unwilling to go find the Buddha Son; I shall punish you!!!"
This is the disadvantage of the Secret Teachings Yoga vehicle; once countered during the cultivation process, one could be stripped of everything by the opponent in an instant!
"Legend!"
Dharma King David's image changed instantly; his skin took on a blue-black hue, and his brow split open, revealing a third, wide-open, ferocious eyeball.
Dharma King David frowned.
In the end...
After all, this Disciple was quite capable and very competent!
It would be a pity not to accept them!
Regardless of how the other party had previously maneuvered between several Dharma Kings, weren't they now going to be obediently implanted with a 'Spell-Binding' by him?
Dharma King David felt somewhat smug; the Secret Teachings' strict hierarchy and effective control were not just empty words, were they?
Did they really think everyone was a Buddha Son?
But even a Buddha Son must be subject to the Buddha's Spell-Binding!
The only true transcendent is—【Vairocana】!
This is the bloody reality!
He thought with a hint of smugness as he entered Zhuoma's mental Secret realm.
This was all content she had fabricated, and the Disciples who knew the falsehood of it had long since died in the Underworld.
The surrounding monks became restless.
Before this, Zhuoma had clearly used the lower-level Peacock Demon to swallow the Secret Mantra to lure the enemy deep, then used a high-level Secret Mantra to turn the tables in one fell swoop!
Chirp chirp!
Ever since Zhuoma comprehended the 'Peacock Swallowing Heaven Secret Mantra', her entire temperament had changed again.
Zhuoma also walked inside.
"Please punish me, Master!"
In the void, golden lotuses faintly emerged, and upon the lotuses were human faces chanting scriptures:
From this moment on, Aaron could be considered to have been promoted to a red-robed monk, counting as middle-to-high level within the Secret Teachings.
'Sure enough, no matter which major faction one joins, one will ultimately suffer 'Spell-Binding'!'
At the end, Kongxing looked at Aaron: "Since the Maitreya Buddha Son is one of our temple's people, this seat will transmit to you our temple's fundamental scriptures: the 'Great Prajna Paramita Bright Mantra Sutra', the 'Kalachakra Secret Yoga Sutra', the 'Great Light Immeasurable Sutra'... which one do you wish to learn?"
Finally, at the moment the portal was about to exhaust its radiance, a human figure emerged.
"Very good, from today on, you are my personally transmitted red-robed Disciple."
Behind them were also deacon monks with solemn expressions, holding trays, and on the trays were folded bright red Thangka dharma robes!
Among the yellow-robed Disciples, many were already intermediate professionals; having experienced a cultivation session in the Underworld and achieved great enlightenment, a considerable portion had successfully promoted to high-level.
Slap!
Answering her was a whip: "Still not going quickly!"
"The Solid and Indestructible Vajra Collection!"
He spoke before the two Dharma Kings, and even used the power of the Secret Mantra in his words, naturally making people want to obey.
After cultivating to the Legend realm, one could even temporarily cultivate oneself into an incarnation of a Secret Cultivation Honored One!
Boom—!
"Tell this seat again what happened in the Underworld!"
Zhuoma's heart turned cold, but she lowered her head as if shy: "This Disciple will strictly follow Master's orders!"
Zhuoma was well-prepared and recounted her experience of falling into the Underworld River, then struggling to shore, enduring three tribulations and seven disasters, and finally arriving at the bank of the Udumbara flower river.
"Hahaha!"
The Peacock Demon form that Zhuoma had transformed into was instantly pressed to the ground by a giant golden palm, chanting scriptures incessantly.
Aaron donned the bright red Thangka dharma robe, and his temperament changed instantly.
If not for the favor of the 'Mother of Light', he, an abbot who was equivalent to a Legendary Priest, would never have been able to open an Underworld passage that even the Master of War would find difficult to open!
When Zhuoma brought over a butter lamp decorated with eight pure gemstones of different colors, shining with lamp fire, a trace of excitement appeared on Dharma King David's face: "Get down!"
"Doing what? Of course... eating you!"
Abbot Kongxing, accompanied by the three Dharma Kings—Dacheng, Daci, and David—watched the Disciples filing out.
A supreme art of the Esoteric Sect—the Great Vajra Hand!
Dharma King David laughed heartily and had a deacon monk present the red robe to Zhuoma: "Tonight, I shall perform the empowerment Ritual for you!"
Clearly, everyone present believed that those two had gone to intercept the Buddha Son Maitreya.
Seeing this, a strange smile appeared on his face: "This bone-searching whip is not suitable for punishing you... go fetch the Eight-Treasure Meat Lotus Butter Lamp!"
Once reaching the Legend level, it becomes the Great Vajra Hand! Mighty and peerless, warding off all evil!
It was precisely the Buddha Son Maitreya, played by Aaron!
He took a step out and arrived in the Material Plane.
The hearts and minds of the people are also an important source of power!
"Indeed so... like the other senior brothers, the Disciple only realized those three had not come after arriving at the banks of the Udumbara Flower River..."
But the true form was neither human nor beast, with a large belly capable of containing everything, a smiling mouth, and radiating boundless suction!
Boom—!
At this moment, the three Dharma Kings saw Zhuoma emerge, and their eyes lit up in unison.
A golden door suddenly bloomed amidst the Udumbara flowers, revealing the voice of Abbot Kongxing of the Spirit Vulture Temple from behind: "Monks of our temple, return with all speed!"
—Peacock Swallowing Heaven Secret Mantra!
Dharma King David summoned Zhuoma and saw that today, Zhuoma had clearly dressed up; various bright head ornaments sparkled, beautiful enough to be breathtaking.
And once one becomes "one of our own," one can naturally look.
Another monk answered with palms pressed together.
Then, the phantom of a gorgeous peacock suddenly descended!
She possessed ten particularly supreme qualities, representing the perfection of ten levels of cultivation; she is the—Ten Directions Supreme Peacock Great Ming King Buddha Mother!
Dharma King David's Vajrapani Bodhisattva incarnation vanished the instant it saw the Buddha Mother, leaving only the true form of Dharma King David, who wore an expression of disbelief: "No... Buddha Mother, why do you favor an outsider?"
Abbot Kongxing looked businesslike and had Aaron step forward to drape the bright red Thangka robe over him.
This is the "Great Majesty and Virtue Vajra Secret Mantra"!
"This Disciple is willing!"
Snow Eagle Temple, inside the meditation room.
Dharma King David laughed very happily.
"Heh, it is no one, go to your death!"
Although, for a Buddha Son whose status is comparable to a Dharma King, it was of absolutely no use.
Zhuoma looked pitiful.
'Actually, you could just transmit it to me together.'
Zhuoma let out a miserable laugh, and in the void behind her, a terrifying Buddha image faintly emerged!
She was draped in a five-colored kasaya, adorned with various feathers, jewels, Zhenzhu, coral, and agate; it was brilliantly colorful and dazzling.
Those three were the most outstanding Disciples in this round of testing.
This voice was as soft and charming as bone, light as a feather, brushing against the skin like an Electric shock, causing the two Disciples serving the Dharma King to blush and look at each other before sneaking out, heading straight for the Bright Concubine Courtyard!
Having previously absorbed the essence and blood of two great Disciples, she stood in the crowd like a peacock spreading its tail, standing out from the crowd, and was exceptionally covetable.
Zhuoma opened her eyes and pushed a dried corpse off her body.
But the next moment, Dharma King David's voice came from the Vajrapani Bodhisattva incarnation: "You have already been hit by a Spell-Binding? Who is it? Daci, Dacheng? Or... the Abbot?"
But the next moment, he was swallowed into the belly of the peacock, which had opened its wide mouth.
Even if taken as a Personal Disciple, this empowerment Ritual could not be skipped.
Dharma King David frowned: "A mere 'Peacock Demon Swallowing Secret Mantra' cannot do anything to this seat!"
Above his head, strands of golden hair stood up; he was draped in heavenly robes and a tiger skirt, his right hand held the wrathful seal, his left hand was against his chest holding a Vajra rope, and he stood upon a seven-colored lotus moon wheel!
The Abbot summoned the Dharma Kings to begin the daily scripture recitation.
Their expressions were horrified, yet secretly contained some excitement.
Wisps of Sanskrit turned into chains, about to infiltrate the body of this Peacock Demon.
In the meditation room, a woman's wonderful voice, sounding both painful and pleasurable, suddenly rang out.
"Om Ba Meng..."
"So... you did not see the Buddha Son?"
"Zhuoma... you have fallen into the Demonic Dao and cannot be my Disciple; I can only bear the pain and refine you into my Dharmapala God and Demon!"
Seeing this, the expressions of the three Dharma Kings became even uglier.
After Dharma King David punished Zhuoma severely, he still performed the empowerment for her.
He only wanted this identity; the mission to save the chosen of the Weave Goddess had already been completed.
But he ultimately had amazing concentration; he did not start the dual cultivation, but first asked about the Underworld.
This left the two Dharma Kings who were a step slower feeling somewhat regretful in their hearts.
Once they all entered Parinirvana, there would be an opportunity for them.
Not only that, after passing the test, he was effectively "one of our own" at Snow Eagle Temple, with hopes of inheriting the position of Abbot in the future.
Time reached night.
Inside Dharma King David's meditation room.
"It is time!"
Watching this scene, Zhuoma secretly clenched her small hands: 'Could it be... the Buddha Son wants to take this opportunity to leave Snow Eagle Temple?'
This is the Secret Transmission of his lineage of practitioners; before practicing any Secret Method, one must first cultivate the "Vajrapani"!
Use this to subdue Demon disturbances and protect the practitioner.
"Isn't there still one important person who hasn't arrived?"
Then, by selecting the elites among them, they can be granted red robes, allowing them to become "Red-Robed Monks," with a status far above the ordinary yellow-robed Disciple.
Zhuoma looked at her own delicate back of the hand and said softly, "I am one too..."
Zhuoma closed her eyes, seemingly immersed in this rare delicacy.
The next day.
The next moment, his palm instantly turned the color of Vajra and descended violently from the sky!
Inside the precious hall.
Life and death transformed, terrifying indeed!
All distracting thoughts in Zhuoma's heart were gone; this rare experience allowed her to have great insights into the Buddha Dharma.
In an instant, heaven and earth intersected!
When the Light flashed, she had already returned to the Snow Eagle Temple in the Material Plane.
Aaron muttered to himself, then said, "I wish to study the 'Great Prajna Paramita Bright Mantra Sutra'!"
After asking a few trial Disciples, a thought arose in their hearts simultaneously: "Could it be... they perished together? It wouldn't be a loss, not a loss... Bah! It's a huge loss, the Buddha Son is a Great Success practitioner, his Brahma crown bone is the best material for making supreme Spirit Bone Prayer Beads!"
It could be said that this blocked the path of the other Dharma King.
But as time passed bit by bit.
Dharma King David spoke first: "Zhuoma... are you willing to be my Disciple and join me in practicing the Supreme Yoga Secret Vehicle?"
However, at this time, each of them had a calm expression as they walked calmly into the golden doorway.
This would inevitably encounter hostility!
But Aaron did not care.
He picked up the oil Lamp, aimed it at Zhuoma's back, and slowly poured it...
"Praise to the Vajrapani Bodhisattva!"
But no matter how long a sutra is, there is a time for it to end.
Zhuoma pretended to be afraid, but still crawled on her knees to the surrounding walls and took down a whip with barbs and a handle made of white bone!
Crack!
Dharma King David picked up the leather whip, flicked it, and the air whistled as it was struck.
And Dharma King Dacheng and Dharma King Daci looked at the portal, slightly puzzled: "Where are Sangji and Zhaxi? Where is Buddha Son Mile?"
"It's the Buddha Son!"
The next moment, his expression changed slightly: "Zhuoma... what are you doing?"
"Amitabha!"
And with the two secret Disciples missing, the eyes of Dharma King Daci and Dharma King Dacheng looking at the Buddha Son became even more fierce and dangerous.
In the Secret Text, "Maha" means great and immeasurable.
Anyone, even a Legend professional, facing this incarnation of "Vajrapani Bodhisattva," would be defeated by its boundless Dharma Power!
The remaining yellow-robed monks' expressions changed slightly: "Could it be that those two actually... perished together with the Buddha Son?"
That sense of solemnity, secrecy, and greatness made all the monks unable to help but pay attention, secretly sighing that he was worthy of being a true Buddha Son.
Abbot Kongxing's chanting grew lower and lower, and the light of the portal was also gradually weakening.
Crack!
The shriveled corpse fell to the ground and shattered instantly.
Zhuoma laughed loudly, and one after another twisted, pitch-black feathers grew on her body, turning her into a peacock-like Demon, and she suddenly opened her beak full of sharp fangs and bit at Dharma King David!
"Stop! Your mind has already been disturbed by the heretics!"
"May the Buddhas of the ten directions and three times bestow their great supernatural power!"
"Many thanks, Abbot!"
"Reporting to the Guru..."
"Mile!"
In the void, a peacock's long cry seemed to come!
"Mile, you have passed the test of the cycle of life and death, and shall be the true Buddha Son of our temple!"
His Secret Cultivation Honored One was also a great Bodhisattva under the "Light Buddha Mother," named—Vajrapani Bodhisattva!
Then, the Buddha-nature radiance on the prayer wheel dissipated, and the Underworld passage vanished without a trace.
Dharma King David roared angrily and chanted the Secret Mantra: "Om! Vajrapani! Hum!!"
"Prajna" refers to wisdom.
"Paramita" implies reaching the other shore.
This means reaching the other shore with immeasurable wisdom!
The Secret Mantra in this sutra is the Great Bright Mantra, the supreme bright mantra, the incomparable bright mantra, and therefore the most excellent!
