Chapter 633: Brahma's Dream, Distortion on the Reverse Side of Heavenly Dao

Brother Qian Chen and the Western Kunlun Mirror walked together and soon returned to the Western Kunlun universe.

At this moment, the demonic shadow in the Western Kunlun universe had grown much larger than at the beginning, evolving into a demonic shadow that occupied the entire world.

The demonic shadow sat on a huge, unimaginable red lotus that seemed to be gathered by billions of galaxies, its eight arms spread out, covering the sky and the sun. It had three heads. The middle head showed compassion, its brow center emitting boundless light, like a Buddha who was incomparably tall, bright, and compassionate.

The head on the right revealed deep demonic nature, its brow center a right-turning vortex like a blood river, as if it were the Six Paths of Samsara. Its eyes were full of distortion, evil, and incredible wisdom.

The head on the left was like the Heavenly Dao, its brow center emitting immortal light, a cloud of celebration rising from its brow center, on which countless golden lanterns, lotus flowers, gods, golden crows, jade rabbits, true dragons, lingzhi, and Yellow Ruyi were manifested, like the manifestation of three thousand Great Daos!

Beneath these three heads was a demonic shadow that was indescribable, dark, twisted, and deep like an abyss.

The consciousness of tens of millions of players trapped in the Western Kunlun world sank into the demonic shadow, and their endless distracting thoughts had split into countless living beings. Various extreme thoughts of emotions gathered together, turning into demons of despair, hatred, pain, and desire, sinking into the abyss.

Brother Qian Chen and the Western Kunlun Mirror came to this demonic shadow with the help of that mirror light. Looking at the Supreme Heavenly Demon that had grown dozens of times stronger, deeper, and more powerful in just a few days, Brother Qian Chen's calves felt a bit soft.

"This bit of demonic thought is truly incredible! The Western Kunlun Mirror sealed it in the mirror light, without any energy, empty and silent, only swallowing the consciousness of tens of millions of players and the original Western Kunlun world data. But even in such a tight seal, it could grow to this extent in just a few days... If I were any slower, it might really have broken through to the other side of the Western Kunlun Mirror!"

"The starry universe there is even more vast, it is a projection of the Western Kunlun Mirror in the mirror, suspected to be reflected from the last furnace of elixirs refined by the Supreme!"

"If the Supreme Heavenly Demon found that place!" Brother Qian Chen couldn't help but shiver.

The Western Kunlun Mirror's expression was also very serious. The woman wrapped in immortal light looked up at the demonic shadow and said solemnly: "Dao Dust Pearl, what do you see?"

A strange look flashed in Brother Qian Chen's eyes, and he whispered: "I see a three-headed, eight-armed demonic shadow that is boundless and tall, like the darkness of the Nine Nethers. It has three heads, one demonic head gathering infinite demonic nature, like a Nine Nethers Demon God; one Buddha head compassionate and enlightened, its brow center blooming with light, and its eyes containing the worlds of the Ganges sands; and finally one immortal head, as if gathering three thousand Great Daos, its eyes like the eyes of the Heavenly Dao. Why, what you see is different?"

The Western Kunlun Mirror, wrapped in immortal light, lowered its head in fear and said tremblingly: "I saw an old man leading a green ox, with billions of feet of purple qi behind him!"

Brother Qian Chen was silent for a moment, shook his head and said: "This demon already has a phase of the Heavenly Dao, we are only seeing one side of it!"

"You must have been influenced by what I said before, that this demon might be the Supreme Heart Demon, which is why you saw the Supreme! Western Kunlun Mirror, do you dare to make a move?"

The woman in immortal light raised an immortal mirror, and the demonic shadow seemed to be trapped in it.

The immortal mirror turned once, and it was a layer of seal. But the demonic shadow reflected in the mirror was a white-headed old man, leading a green ox, walking leisurely toward the mirror surface, as if he were about to walk out of the mirror.

The Western Kunlun Mirror turned pale, suddenly lost the courage to make a move, shook its head and said: "No, this demonic thought is indeed the Supreme Heart Demon. It triggered the imprint left by the Supreme Dao Ancestor in my heart, making me unable to make a move!"

"And I feel that it seems to be replacing the Supreme in my memory. In this way, my true body can only seal it for three moments. After three moments, it may borrow a wisp of my heart's thought and escape to any place in the Aeon Light River!"

"Cannot (dare not) make a move!"

Brother Qian Chen's face was strange. He followed the Western Kunlun Mirror and recited a slightly sarcastic sentence: "You said before that I, this Supreme Spiritual Light, was not very powerful, but now that you see a shadow of the Supreme Dao Ancestor, you don't dare to make a move?"

"If it weren't for you saying it was the Supreme Heart Demon, making me harbor a bit of fear in my heart, how could I have been triggered by the shadow of the Supreme Dao Ancestor the moment I saw this demonic thought."

"Making a move against it now is equivalent to making a move against the shadow of the Supreme Dao Ancestor in my heart."

"That is the Supreme Dao Ancestor. Ask the heavens and myriad worlds, how many dare to make a move against him?" The Western Kunlun Mirror frowned tightly.

Brother Qian Chen frowned slightly and asked: "Then what should we do?"

"Walk in... enter its body, and we won't be able to see its full picture! Inside its body, it should be the Western Kunlun world I originally opened!"

The Western Kunlun Mirror walked forward and entered the brow center of the demonic shadow's Buddha head.

Brother Qian Chen followed closely and also walked into that boundless light.

The two entered the universe inside the Supreme Heavenly Demon, only to find that it was no longer the world where countless demons and yin demons shuttled and boundless consciousness rolled like chaos. On the contrary, the brow center of that Buddha head seemed to be a boundless and vast Buddha land, everywhere was clear, peaceful, beautiful, and harmonious!

On the ground, seven treasures such as gold, silver, lapis lazuli, giant clam, agate, pearl, and rose were laid out. Boundless blessings and wishes turned into golden merit divine mud, and the eight-treasure merit pool water flowed everywhere, with blue and white lotus flowers blooming everywhere!

It was a scene of a Pure Land!

There was no trace of demonic land or Nine Nethers.

"This place is very strange..." Brother Qian Chen felt a bit creepy, even if he saw hell, it wouldn't be so terrifying.

The brow center of the three-headed, eight-armed demonic shadow was actually such a peaceful world.

When he escaped from the Western Kunlun world in the past, he saw the scene of all living beings sinking in the game, and the thoughts fighting each other, which was still vivid in his mind. In contrast, this peaceful Pure Land was like an illusion, but he couldn't identify whether there was a trace of falsehood in it, only feeling that the true self's spiritual sense in the Dao Dust Pearl felt a sense of distortion.

The Western Kunlun Mirror looked left and right, and said a word that made Brother Qian Chen even more terrified: "I can't see it either! This place seems to have a complete past. I looked back ten thousand years, and there was no abnormality. Looking further ahead, I felt a sense of breathlessness and didn't dare to look!"

"This doesn't dare, that doesn't dare. How did you become a Samsara Lord? In this way, the Samsara Land has broken the grid in my heart!"

Brother Qian Chen looked around. The pedestrians coming and going all had Buddha light on their bodies. Some had one or two circles of Buddha light, and some had dozens of circles, but all of them were clear and pure, with long lifespans.

Brother Qian Chen looked at the life fire on their heads, and those with the least Buddha light and the shortest lifespan could live for about four thousand years.

These people had seven body colors of fire, gold, blue, red, white, yellow, and black, and their smell was clear and subtle. Brother Qian Chen's Dharma eye looked at them and found that they had no flesh, muscles, veins, fat, blood, marrow, or bones, and could change their size and image at will. Their hair was soft and moist, their teeth were white, clean, square, and dense, their coming and going were unobstructed, and they were slow and fast. Their two eyes were clear, and they didn't blink for a long time.

"They don't blink!"

Brother Qian Chen whispered, these existences were very much like humans, but because they lacked some small human characteristics and small movements, they appeared even more terrifying!

"This is Deva..." The Western Kunlun Mirror said with great knowledge: "That is, the beings of the Heavenly Realm!"

"They are a clan of beings in the Heavenly Realm, mostly believing in the Buddhist sect, occupying one day in the Heavenly Realm, and are very prosperous! Could it be that we were cast with some supernatural power by that demonic thought and sent to the Heavenly Realm? But the feeling here is not the ancient Heavenly Realm? Could it be the Pure Land Heavenly Realm opened by the Buddhist sect?"

Suddenly, the passing Devas seemed to have disrupted their steps. Brother Qian Chen and the Western Kunlun Mirror listened carefully.

Only then did they see a Deva with blue body light and several circles of light behind his head crying loudly: "Teacher Dipankara is about to enter extinction!"

In a boundless light Pure Land in the distance, a voice of wisdom and compassion resounded through heaven and earth: "I have insight into this world and will enter extinction. Anyone who is interested can come to listen to me lecture on the Buddha Dharma!"

The Devas who heard this sound all closed their eyes and sighed, praising the Buddha's affairs. Some Devas played heavenly music with the pipa beside them, and some Devas scattered golden flowers and burned various wonderful heavenly incense.

The Devas all put on necklaces and flew into the air, walking in the void, and went toward that Pure Land.

The Western Kunlun Mirror and Brother Qian Chen hurriedly followed, and saw an ancient Buddha several hundred feet tall sitting on a lotus flower in that bright Buddha land.

Surrounded by disciples, one by one Devas played wonderful music for him, scattered wonderful heavenly flowers, and some washed his Buddha body.

After all the Devas were full, the ancient Buddha raised his hand slightly, formed a lecture seal, and said: "I entered the Dao in the Jambudvipa world ninety-one kalpas ago, met seventy-seven thousand Buddhas, experienced ninety-one kalpas, and finally saw the true suchness! I will enter extinction soon, so I invite you to lecture!"

Brother Qian Chen saw that all the Devas were solemn and folded their hands, performing Buddhist rites, and felt a bit puzzled in his heart, turning to look at the Western Kunlun Mirror.

Only then did it sneer and lower its voice: "This ancient Buddha has a big tone. It summarizes the four kalpas of formation, existence, destruction, and emptiness as one great kalpa, which is one asankhyeya kalpa. This kalpa is the beginning and end of a world, and one asankhyeya kalpa is about seven billion years. This Buddha said that he experienced ninety-one asankhyeya kalpas, six hundred and thirty-seven billion years of cultivation. According to the Supreme Dao Ancestor's calculations in the past, the entire heavens and myriad worlds have only been opened for more than three hundred billion years. Isn't he a figure before the opening of heaven and earth?"

"With this ability, why are you still lecturing here? Why don't you go to discuss the Dao with the Supreme Dao Ancestor?"

Dipankara Ancient Buddha slowly opened his mouth: "I discussed the Dao with Brahma in a dream, and it took one thousand eight hundred small kalpas to realize our original face!"

"This world has boundless Ganges sands of worlds. Beneath my Pure Land, there are 1.256 billion great thousand worlds born and destroyed, and there are boundless Ganges sands of small thousand and medium thousand worlds born and destroyed. Outside the Pure Land, there are the Nine Nethers and the Heavenly Realm standing side by side. Beneath the three realms, there are boundless worlds of greed, ignorance, and anger manifested by yin demons. Such boundless worlds in ten directions, boundless living beings in ten directions, boundless demons in ten directions, are all manifested by Brahma's dream!"

"Brahma's dream is a world; Brahma's thought is a dream. With the operation of boundless thoughts in such a dream, there are Ganges sands of worlds that we see!"

"In the past, Brahma landed, played games, and created living beings in dreams..."

Brother Qian Chen's face changed, and he looked down suddenly. Only then did he see that through this boundless and vast Pure Land, there were countless small thousand and medium thousand worlds manifested below.

He sensed those worlds and found that they were indeed gathered by many thoughts, and then became a world. This principle is not difficult to understand, just like a person entering a dream, relying on the thoughts in his brain, he can manifest a blurred world. The thoughts in one person's consciousness can open up a world. If there are millions of times more such thoughts gathered, it will naturally form a world that makes people unable to distinguish between true and false.

In the past, when playing games, the most thoughts were cognition!

Flowers, grass, trees, birds, beasts, fish, insects, these thoughts once entered the consciousness, would split into corresponding thoughts according to the logical understanding of the consciousness, which is 'concept'.

This kind of conceptual mapping is endless, and it is the most basic thought.

The thoughts of living beings in the game are immortal. These cognitive thoughts will gather according to the cognition of the Supreme Heavenly Demon, turning into dreams and worlds, which are the Ganges sands of worlds we see today.

And the nesting of dreams can reach an extremely exaggerated level of time flow, so a dream at the mortal level is a small kalpa.

A dream at the Yang level contains 129,600 small kalpas, and it takes 120,000 mortal dreams to be a medium kalpa.

Then it is a dream of an existence like Dipankara Ancient Buddha—that is an asankhyeya kalpa!

Among the three heads of the demonic shadow, there are countless Deva consciousnesses, and even consciousnesses at the level of Dao Lords like Dipankara Ancient Buddha. The consciousness of tens of millions of players trapped in the Western Kunlun world sank into the demonic shadow of the Supreme Heavenly Demon, and their endless distracting thoughts had split into countless living beings.

Various extreme thoughts of emotions gathered together, turning into demons of despair, hatred, pain, and desire, sinking into the Nine Nethers composed of the boundless abyss twisted together that constituted the demonic shadow's body.

These abysses were all the most distorted perceptions, the most indescribable, chaotic, and strange concepts, forming indescribable dreams, deposited in the demonic shadow's body.

And those who, in the storm of yin demon thoughts, did not use extreme convergent emotions to resist the impact, but kept clearing their minds, constantly polishing themselves, and recognizing themselves, turned into consciousnesses as hard as diamonds in the storm of yin demon thoughts.

Like dots of stars, they flickered in the brain of the Supreme Heavenly Demon, immersed in the world manifested in the Heavenly Demon's dream, connecting into a sea of stars in the brain region.

Those flickering consciousnesses were like the neural synapses of the human brain.

If you look down at the entire sea of stars, you can see the flickering light of these stars, like the activity of brain neurons.

This is the brain Jade Emperor Court of the Supreme Heavenly Demon!

The Heavenly Demon has no thoughts or consciousness. It uses these constantly gathering, polishing, and questioning consciousnesses as its thoughts, turning their wisdom, insights, and cognition into a part of itself. It turns the wisdom, foundation, and accumulation of the entire Western Kunlun, and even tens of millions of players in reality, into its own.

These brain regions are divided into various areas according to the differences in the thoughts, consciousness, and cognition within them. As far as Brother Qian Chen can see, they are the three worlds of Pure Land, Nine Nethers, and Heavenly Realm, and boundless living beings.

Brother Qian Chen and the Western Kunlun Mirror suddenly appeared in the brain region of the Domain-Outside Heavenly Demon. Looking at the countless flickering star consciousnesses, the Western Kunlun Mirror's expression changed drastically: "This thing, even if it's not the Supreme Heart Demon, I fear it's not far from it! What kind of strange Great Dao is that trace of Dao Fruit? Is this thing really something that living beings can comprehend?"

"Such crazy principles, if you comprehend them, you will die if you don't go crazy!"

"Everything is consciousness, thoughts are immortal! He transforms into freedom, all living beings play! There is actually someone who uses this Dao Fruit to demonize heaven and earth!"

Brother Qian Chen's eyes flickered, his eyes drifted: "Perhaps it is some kind of Dao reversal?"

"Dao reversal!" The Western Kunlun Mirror whispered: "Reversal is the movement of the Dao! Saying it is the reverse side of the Heavenly Dao is also appropriate! This thing's Dao Fruit cannot be cultivated even in the Nine Nethers! Sealing it is really quite troublesome!"

"I will help you!" Brother Qian Chen said with a guilty conscience. ===== CHAPTER 634 =====

Such a terrifying picture unfolded before Brother Qian Chen.

In this Pure Land, Buddhas of compassion exchanged their insights on Buddhist scriptures, with various consciousnesses of compassion, equality, and universal love, refining their power of thought.

Constantly gaining recognition and faith from the lower-level heavenly consciousnesses, they polished their own consciousness and power of thought until they were like sarira, round like Mani pearls, emitting sparks of wisdom.

These Buddhas were consciousnesses that had subdued their hearts and been polished amidst the infinite demonic thoughts of the Nine Heavens, and their realms were in no way inferior to Buddhist cultivators who had attained the Arhat fruit.

They contemplated the scriptures, constantly polishing their hearts and minds amidst the invasion of infinite demonic paths, firming their path, and contemplating the Buddhist scriptures to an extremely deep realm.

They were all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, they were Zen Master Master Tianmeng, they were the white-browed monk.

Their understanding of the Great Dao and their wisdom all became a part of the Supreme Heavenly Demon, becoming a neuron in its vast consciousness.

The Western Kunlun Mirror and Brother Qian Chen suddenly appeared in the brain region of the Outer Heavenly Demon.

Brother Qian Chen waved his hand to shatter the "Pure Land," revealing the Heavenly Demon brain region that was like a sea of stars. Looking at the countless flickering star consciousnesses, the Western Kunlun Mirror's expression changed drastically: "This thing, even if it's not the Supreme Heart Demon, I'm afraid it's not far from it! What kind of weird Great Dao is that trace of its Dao fruit? Is this thing really a principle that living beings can contemplate?"

"Such a crazy principle, if you contemplate it, you'll either die or go crazy!"

"Everything is consciousness, thoughts are immortal! Freedom in transformation, all living beings are games! There is actually someone who used this kind of Dao fruit to dye and transform heaven and earth!"

Brother Qian Chen's eyes flickered, and his gaze drifted: "Perhaps it's some kind of Dao reversal?"

"Dao reversal!" The Western Kunlun Mirror whispered: "Reversal is the movement of the Dao! The opposite side of the Heavenly Dao, saying it like that is quite appropriate! This thing's Dao fruit cannot be cultivated even in the Nine Heavens! Sealing it is really quite troublesome!"

"I'll help you!" Brother Qian Chen said with a guilty conscience.
