Chapter 691: A Pillar of Buddhist Incense Leads to the Pure Land
Whether intentional or not, Qian Chen always felt that when Seeing Xiao Yu attacked the heavenly demon, Junior Sister Ning seemed to glance toward his side...
Why I glanced at you, don't you have any idea in your heart? — Ning Qingchen.
The old monk Master Zhen Yu had a dull expression, seemingly not knowing how to speak. Seeing Xiao Yu made a magic incense with the foul smell of Ilan, luring the heavenly demon to break the boundary, which was already extraordinary, far surpassing the trouble incense he developed.
If the old monk used such terrifying trouble incense to test disciples.
I fear Dharma Master Master Zhen Yu's disciples would be like toads croaking—lonely! lonely! lonely!
If this incense were used to harm people, I fear the cultivation of these loose cultivators who lost their minds from the foul smell of Ilan at this moment would all be taken away by the heavenly demon.
For ordinary loose cultivators, this incense might be more precious and practical than what the two of them had refined now.
And the incense materials used—Ilan powder, corpse poison pus, extremely Yin white bones, flying zombie hair! Although they were also rare, they were much better than the sandalwood on Ox-Head Mountain in the Western Buddhist Land...
If Seeing Xiao Yu took out such a Supreme Supreme Tian Mo Trouble Incense to compete with him, the old monk boasted that his Brightness Superior Incense could also destroy the heavenly demon. In this way, it would naturally be that the Buddhist Dharma is superior to the external Dao, and the Buddhist incense is superior to the magic incense.
But Seeing Xiao Yu, having used this Supreme Supreme Tian Mo Worry Incense to lure the Supreme Supreme Tian Mo into the world, performed the maneuver of using a ten-thousand-year-old mirage demon shell to conjure an illusion of the Central Lands world, luring the Supreme Supreme Tian Mo into the illusion, before using sandalwood containing Buddhist nature to execute it.
He subsequently used the Supreme Supreme Tian Mo's remains and ox-head sandalwood, sealed within the mirage shell of the ten-thousand-year-old mirage demon, to process it into an incense paste, which he then kneaded into incense pills...
It was an incense Dao that was beyond the old monk's understanding and fundamentally didn't know how to evaluate!
The old monk now looked at that incense pill as if looking at a living heavenly demon descending. Even with his determination, he couldn't help but be secretly shocked.
"Sandalwood is the incense of light! And the other two main medicines, mirage shell incense and heavenly demon incense, must have the wonder of illusions. Now that the Buddhist nature in the sandalwood has disappeared, refining it into incense like this should be able to manifest illusory scenes, but the light is insufficient! I can break it with the bright, superior, and boundless incense..."
The old monk calculated secretly in his heart.
At this time, the incense juice in the Tianmo Sheli Buddha Pagoda had cooled down.
The old monk inverted the Tianmo Sheli Buddha Pagoda into an ancient and simple incense burner, put his palms together, and the small Buddha pagoda that offered the Tianmo Sheli bones suddenly rose ten feet, turning into a nine-story Buddha pagoda inlaid with gold and seven treasures.
A cry of surprise came from the field. Only then did someone notice that this pagoda was a magic treasure, one of the three hundred Tianmo Sheli Buddha Pagodas carried by Bodhisattva Guangfa when he came overseas to spread the Dharma many years ago.
The largest Peacock King Pagoda inlaid with gold and seven treasures was brought by Bodhisattva Guangfa from the Peacock Kingdom in the Western Land, offering the Buddha's Tianmo Sheli Buddha bone pagoda.
The remaining three hundred were also high monks who had attained the right fruit.
Many years ago, after Bodhisattva Guangfa disappeared with the Peacock King Pagoda, there was a great chaos in the Konghai Temple. The Dragon Clan and overseas Immortal sects joined forces to invade, broke the pagoda forest in the backyard of the Konghai Temple, and looted many Sariras. The remaining Buddha pagodas still had deep Buddhist nature left by the Sariras, which were refined by generations of monks in the Konghai Temple. I don't know how many were refined into magic treasures.
The one of the old monk Master Zhen Yu was obviously also a gift from the Konghai Temple, and he actually used it as an incense mold.
A True Person with white eyebrows watching from afar moved slightly and said: "The Buddhist sect entering our Seven Immortal Alliance's Flying Boat Market is entirely hosted by the Peacock Hall. Now it has a bit of the meaning of the guest taking over the host! Now wanting to monopolize incense, I don't know what they want to monopolize next?"
Another True Person beside him smiled and interjected: "Our Seven Immortal Alliance was originally formed by the alliance of the seven most powerful merchant associations overseas. The Peacock Hall controls the South Sea trade route, relies on Northern Wei, and has a deep connection with the Buddhist sect."
"The Twelve-Story Building sells overseas treasures and also has an unclear relationship with the Dragon Clan."
"The Yingzhou Pavilion sells large sea ships and mechanism magic treasures. Behind it should be the three islands of Penglai..."
"Besides that, the Ten Thousand Dharma Association is behind the overseas Immortal sects, selling various Daoist books, pill magic treasures, and talisman specialties; the Hundred Boat Sea Association was originally the same, but it's a pity that although Feng Yangzi's methods were brilliant, he finally played himself to death! Now it has been replaced by the Shennong Hall, which specializes in selling pills and spirit herbs, and behind it is the pill Dao sect, Baicao Mountain..."
The True Person with a pair of slender white eyebrows, who came from the Seven Immortal Alliance and had a close relationship with the Daoist sect, pointed at Seeing Xiao Yu and said: "Perhaps we can support an incense-selling merchant association to have some involvement with that Buddhist sect!"
Another Transformation God True Person from the End of the World Pavilion frowned when he heard this and said: "The Jiazi Treasure Meeting is imminent. We don't know who plotted against us, actually making the Treasure Meeting an opportunity for the birth of the Immortal Han treasure, the Dew-Bearing Plate. Now in the Central Lands and the Hong Hong Sihai, the Dragon Clan and Penglai are all undercurrents. Before, the Dragon Clan set up formations in the Hong Hong Sihai and suffered such a big loss..."
"Now the undercurrents are surging, and the situation is treacherous. It is really not suitable to fall out with the Buddhist sect again!"
The white-browed True Person also nodded slightly, acknowledging his statement!
But he still pointed at the old monk and asked: "How do you think the incense he refined is?"
The Transformation God ancestor of the End of the World Pavilion praised: "It is truly mysterious. Just looking at the manifestation of the Bodhisattva when refining the incense, it is already full of Buddhist nature, and he can be worthy of our generation in the future."
"What about him?" The white-browed Transformation God pointed at Seeing Xiao Yu again.
The Transformation God True Person of the End of the World Pavilion was silent for a long time. Other cultivators might have smelled the Ilan incense and suddenly arose in ignorance, and might not have seen clearly the scene where Seeing Xiao Yu opened a mirage illusion with mirage Qi, but they, the Transformation Gods, saw it clearly...
"This person used incense to lure the heavenly demon to break the boundary, and actually used the heavenly demon as bait to refine spirit incense. I am curious, what kind of incense can he refine!" The white-browed Transformation God said leisurely.
The Transformation God True Person of the End of the World Pavilion also sighed: "It's a pity that he is an external sect person after all. Even if he takes risks and is clever, I fear he is not as good as the Buddhist sect."
"After all, incense is something used to worship gods and Buddhas. If there is no one above, even if the incense is made well, what can it do?" He couldn't help but sigh: "I fear it's not as good as drawing the heavenly demon down. At least the Nine Heavens Demon God of the magic Dao is responsive to every request, which is quite honest!"
"Responsive to every request!" The white-browed Transformation God of the Three-Mountain Hall sneered slightly: "If he refines magic incense and recruits demons, I fear he will fall into the Buddhist sect's plot. With the weirdness of the magic Dao, if he really burns magic incense, I don't know what will be recruited!"
"Even if I have the heart to promote him, I fear it will fall into the Buddhist sect's gossip at that time..."
The two Transformation God True Persons said this, and they had a judgment on the outcome, so they stopped talking and focused their eyes on the two people competing for incense on the street, no longer speaking.
Following their silence, Qian Chen also cast his gaze on the scene.
At this time, the flying boat that held up the street was crowded with people. In front of Seeing Xiao Yu and the old monk were two sticks of incense. One was on the scripture desk, an incense tower like a Buddha pagoda.
The incense powder was delicate, extremely fine, only distinguishable by the divine sense of a Transformation God True Person, but it emitted golden light spots of divine brilliance, piled together, like golden-topped Buddhist light, solemn and dignified!
On the other side was a coarse yellow rag, stained with various old stains, incense ash, and dirty blood, with holes, and painted with Bagua Yin and Yang, looking extremely dirty and inconspicuous.
But this was the old Daoist's treasure at the bottom of the box. It was originally a Bagua cloth of the Yin and Yang Dao. As the old Daoist drilled into graves and entered the ground, he often had to spread it out when encountering weird things in the tomb to set up a Dharma altar, so it naturally couldn't be clean.
Don't look at its dirt; every trace on it has a legendary story!
The old monk's incense tower was offered on an ancient and mottled altar, while Seeing Xiao Yu put the incense pill in a broken bowl, attracting the disdainful gaze of the tall, thin monk behind the old monk...
Seeing Xiao Yu knew that this bowl was something they brought out from the most terrifying tomb of the Great Supreme Supreme Tian Mo sealed by the Louguan Dao predecessors when they entered it that one time!
Human figurines, copper lamps, white bone evil Buddhas, Yin and Yang dragon pools, jade coffin fairies, demon-suppressing eight halls...
Even though the three of them luckily survived from that place and obtained shocking good fortune, they had broken into many large tombs!
Among them were even sect masters of Immortal sects and emperors of dynasties, but none could give them the terrifying feeling like that Louguan demon-sealing ground. A broken bowl brought out from that place was also extremely terrifying, a burial item of the Jade Coffin Feng Xianzi...
If you don't see it on the top of Qunyu Mountain, you will meet it under the moon at the Jade Terrace!
This was the cat food bowl of the Nine-Tailed Mysterious Cat buried with the fairy, which was touched out by the old Daoist who was bold enough to defy the heavens. The sequela was that he often dreamed of a nine-tailed mysterious cat when he slept, and the cat's claws scratched and scratched at his heart!
The old monk invited a scroll of the Bodhisattva Manjushri image and hung it in front of the scripture desk, hanging in the void without a nail.
He sat on the meditation cushion and chanted scriptures to the Bodhisattva Manjushri.
A wisp of dark golden fire ignited on the tip of that tower incense, but it was the old monk using his pure thought fire of worshipping the Buddha for two hundred years to light the tower incense, accompanied by a wisp of faint smoke, leading straight to the sky.
Qian Chen got up from the tea seat and stared at the void where that wisp of fragrance disappeared...
Not far away, the four Transformation Gods of the Seven Immortal Alliance who came to watch the fun also stood up in horror, appearing silently at the four corners of the street, vaguely forming a siege, surrounding that simple wisp of smoke.
The Transformation God of the Twelve-Story Building was a middle-aged man. He looked at that wisp of fragrance, probed into the void, and seemed to connect to an unknown Buddhist land.
A wisp of Buddhist light vaguely descended from the opposite side.
That light was very weak, but it contained a trace of immortal power, which seemed to be unobstructed and shone through the ten directions.
The Buddhist light shone on the old monk, making his body seem to become transparent and clear all of a sudden, reflecting a golden skeleton. The Buddhist light shone on the skeleton, and the golden light was even better, as if the flesh, blood, and meridians had all turned into glaze, and the subtle filth in the Dharma body was instantly melted by the Buddhist light.
That wisp of fragrance even infected it, making the old monk emit a body that was clean and slightly sandalwood-scented from the inside out.
"It's actually a wisp of Buddhist light from the Pure Land!"
The white-browed Transformation God said in horror: "This incense actually really reached the Pure Land..."
Another old man from the Peacock Hall put his hands together, bowed to where the fragrance reached, and sighed: "We have sought the Immortal Dao for a lifetime. Even if we cultivate to Transformation God, discard the body, and ascend to the heavenly realm, it is barely enough! But wanting to ascend to the Three Pure Holy Realms and the Pure Land, besides merit, one also needs merit fruit. I didn't expect to see today that a wisp of fragrance can reach the Pure Land!"
In the tea house, Qian Chen shook his head and said: "The Pure Land is indeed one of the heavens. A little brilliance emitted can wash the Dharma body. It's a pity that this Buddhist light is still too weak and can only shine on the Buddha bones. If it could shine through the bones and purify the filth of the bone marrow, this old monk might be able to cultivate a golden body with this!"
The Transformation God of the End of the World Pavilion sighed: "It is rumored that incense is a letter path. Using incense as a letter, one can reach the heavens. Using fragrance as a road, gods and Buddhas can descend to all worlds with one thought."
"Many years ago, when the Buddha was cultivating the Dharma in the Jiyuan of the heavenly realm, the heavenly being Fuqina built a sandalwood hall, preparing to invite the Buddha. He collected three thousand kinds of wonderful incense from the heavenly realm, refined them into Great Sumeru Incense, held an incense burner, looked at Jiyuan from afar, and worshipped with incense."
"The fragrance curled, drifted toward Jiyuan, slowly landed on the Buddha's head, and turned into an incense cloud cover. The Buddha knew and went to Fuqina's sandalwood hall!"
"This heavenly being later cultivated into the Incense Accumulation Buddha, and the Buddha bestowed the re-refined incense cloud treasure cover, ordering him to open the Incense Accumulation Buddha Land, which is the place where the incense Dao is accomplished!"
The white-browed Transformation God of the Three-Mountain Hall moved slightly and whispered: "But there are also rumors that the incense cloud treasure cover is a magic treasure refined by the Supreme Dao Ancestor!"
The three Transformation Gods heard this and laughed together, looking at the white eyebrows, feeling that he was probably possessed! Although the Supreme Dao Ancestor is extremely noble, opened the Immortal Dao, and combined with the Great Dao, he is the ancestor respected by all practitioners, but not everything is related to this Dao Ancestor.
This incense cloud treasure cover sounds like a Buddhist object!
How could it be refined by the Supreme Dao Ancestor?
Wisps of fragrance connected to the light of the Pure Land. This incense tower only burned a tip, communicating with the brilliance of the Pure Land, which was also very weak. But drawing this wisp of Buddhist light down, the old monk chanted scriptures devoutly, his heart light sprouted, and it shone with the Buddhist light, shining through inside and outside, and began to study the golden body.
The two tall, thin, and black, burly monks also sat cross-legged behind the old monk, using the opportunity of the fragrance to draw the Buddhist light to purify their flesh and study the Buddhist Dharma.
Moreover, many Transformation Gods and some high-level experts saw that the Buddha tower incense was sharp at the top and wide at the bottom. This was just the beginning of establishing a connection with the Pure Land. The fragrance was faint and could only draw formless brilliance. When it burned halfway, the road for the fragrance to connect to the Pure Land would be wider, and I fear it would descend something extraordinary.
When the Buddha tower incense finally erupted, it was the true opportunity drawn by this incense!
The Brightness Superior Incense refined by the old monk actually connected to the Pure Land. Everyone turned their eyes to Seeing Xiao Yu, wanting to see how his incense pill would be?
Seeing Xiao Yu was very silent. He looked at the Buddhist incense tower, then turned his head to look at the rotten cloth and broken bowl in front of him, staring at the ink-black incense pill, with a dazed look in his eyes.
This action fell into the eyes of others, but they thought he was showing fear. Most of those who had some expectations shook their heads and gave up, and most people were preparing to watch his joke.
Several Transformation Gods shook their heads slightly, gave up on him, and focused on sensing the Pure Land at the end of the Buddhist incense.
Ning Qingchen in the tea house couldn't help but turn her face to look at Qian Chen and said: "Incense is ultimately a divine Dao. Don't you want to help him?"
Qian Chen was pursing his lips to savor the tea. Hearing this, he put down the teacup and said: "You have also seen the prayer incense I refined... although it is called prayer, when have I ever begged the gods? It's always the gods who come to beg me..."
Ning Qingchen looked at Seeing Xiao Yu, who was dazed on the field, and sighed and shook her head! ===== CHAPTER 692 =====
