Chapter 827: Reversing the Heaven and Earth
Master Master Ming Yu was stunned when he saw this scene. This level required the monk not to shout a word of pain during the whipping process to pass.
Of course, the secret realm would not let the supervisor keep whipping. Later, the Buddha statue would drop a stone and smash the supervisor to death.
The supervisor had done many evils, and the falling stone smashing the supervisor to death was in line with the Buddhist concept of good having good rewards and evil having evil rewards.
Master Master Ming Yu had presided over the Western Heaven Secret Realm thousands of times and had seen countless monks' choices in the secret realm. The greatest difficulty of this level was enduring pain. 90% of the monks could not persist until the supervisor suffered retribution and shouted pain. The remaining ones who persisted were also gritting their teeth, so he favored Xinzhen who entered the state of forgetting things and me.
Buddhism advocates recognizing pain through the way of mindfulness, so as to reach the realm of transcending pain.
But it was the first time he had seen someone like Xinding who started hitting people, and judging from the supervisor's screams, Xinding hit exceptionally hard.
"Wait, why do you hit people?" Master Master Ming Yu couldn't help but appear when he saw this. He could control the Western Heaven Secret Realm to a certain extent. After a while, Xinding would forget that he had appeared.
"He wants to hit me." Xinding said calmly. In fact, he didn't change his face when he hit people just now.
In the Western Heaven Secret Realm, monks would show the most instinctive reactions and could not fake or lie.
"Don't you know that our Buddhism advocates facing pain without changing one's face and observing pain?"
"I know, but if it's my fault, I'll admit the beating. But now it's these supervisors who are working overtime, carrying stones until I have no strength, and then the stones fell. It's the supervisor's fault, why should I be beaten?" Xinding said righteously. Even the Abbot has to be reasonable.
"Then do you know that our Buddhism pays attention to good having good rewards and evil having evil rewards? This supervisor beats others at will, and he will suffer retribution?"
"Isn't he suffering retribution now by being beaten by me?"
"I……"
Master Master Ming Yu held back for a long time, but couldn't find words to refute.
This level tested "patience". If you don't shout pain, you pass. Xinding didn't shout a word of pain throughout the process and passed smoothly.
With the help of the Fairy's immortal sense, Lu Yang witnessed the performance of all monks in the illusion, and Xinding's performance was the most outstanding.
"Good seedling." Lu Yang praised Xinding highly. Based on Xinding's performance, passing the Congwendao Sect's test was not a problem.
After watching the first level, Lu Yang popped up a question and asked one of the five founders of Buddhism in confusion: "But Fairy, does Buddhism advocate being beaten?"
"Oh, I accidentally discovered that when the Qilin Immortal was beaten by Little Ling and Lianyi, he always pretended to be very painful. In fact, he was secretly laughing. I asked him why, and he said this is a Buddhist practice method: experience pain, realize pain, transcend pain."
"At that time, I asked why I didn't remember that there was such a principle in the Buddhist stories we compiled, and he said there is now."
After listening, Lu Yang hurriedly cleared his relationship: "Hey, hey, hey, I didn't hear anything."
How could he not control his curiosity and know another ancient secret?
"You didn't hear it? Then I'll tell it again……"
"No need, no need." Lu Yang didn't dare to listen to the second time. The second time, the Immortal Fairy might associate it with other things and say other ancient secrets.
"By the way, is this illusion a fragment of an era intercepted from the Great Qian period?" Lu Yang changed the subject.
All illusions must be based on reality. Cultivators cannot imagine things they have never seen. The Buddhist cultivator who constructed this illusion should be from the Great Qian period.
The scene of the entire illusion was countless slaves carrying stones to transport them up, building Buddha statues. If the slaves had any poor performance, they would suffer whipping from the supervisors, living in misery.
The Buddha statue was built halfway, and Lu Yang happened to recognize the prototype of the Buddha statue.
The two divine lords who attacked the Laurel Immortal Palace to subdue demons.
In the early Great Qian Dynasty, they started construction, built statues of various divine lords, spread faith, and obtained incense.
"It should be. The owner of this Buddha breath is a Buddhist cultivator from the Great Qian period. It should be that many Buddhist cultivators were purifying and transcending something, which led to so much Buddha breath in this secret realm." The Immortal Fairy analyzed.
"In the depths of this secret realm, how can I feel the aura of Ying Tian Xian and the Years Immortal? Could it be an immortal weapon refined by the two of them together?" The Immortal Fairy felt vaguely. She always felt it was a very familiar immortal weapon, but she couldn't remember it suddenly.
Like all the tests Master Master Ming Yu presided over, this time only 10% of the monks were screened out, and 10% passed.
Except that Xinding's way of passing was a bit special.
Those screened-out monks would walk out of the Western Heaven Secret Realm in a daze under the control of Buddha breath, leave the chaos fog forbidden area, and there were monks arranged outside the forbidden area to be responsible for follow-up work.
The second round of testing was also an illusion.
In front of Xinchen, who entered the Martial Monk Courtyard with Xinding, was a wide river. There were two people by the river, his old monk master and a beautiful but timid woman.
The woman was afraid to cross the river.
The old monk took the initiative to go up, carrying the woman across the river, and Xinchen followed closely.
After crossing the river and parting with the woman, Xinchen frowned, extremely puzzled. The doubt was held for the whole way, and finally, he couldn't help asking: "Master, wouldn't you violate the precept of lust by doing this?"
The old monk touched Xinchen's head lovingly: "Xinchen, I have already let go, but you haven't let go."
Xinzhen of the Discipline Courtyard witnessed the whole process and didn't speak throughout. The moment the old monk put down the woman, he also let go, and there was no doubt in his heart.
Xinchen failed, Xinzhen passed.
Master Master Ming Yu smiled. Xinzhen was indeed a good seedling. He was very satisfied with his performance in the two tests.
The theme of this level was "letting go".
Buddhism advocates that female beauty is a pink skull. A true monk must be able to regard female beauty as nothing. If you can regard female beauty as nothing, you will not ask questions.
Under the influence of Buddha breath, it is impossible to hide the truth. Witnessing the process of carrying a woman across the river, if the tester has doubts in his heart, he will definitely ask. If he asks, it means he has not let go of this matter, and the test fails.
"How is Xinding." Master Master Ming Yu remembered Xinding's special performance in the previous level and developed some curiosity about Xinding.
He entered Xinding's illusion, and Xinding's choice once again exceeded his expectations.
He saw Xinding take a step first, took the initiative to carry the woman across the river before the old monk, and because Xinding was not yet an adult and not tall enough, carrying the woman would wet the woman's shoes, so he simply hugged her, and the posture was quite indecent.
In these thousands of secret realms, no one has ever done this!
Master Master Ming Yu was extremely puzzled. After Xinding crossed the river, he appeared again, wanting to ask clearly.
"Xinding, why did you carry that woman across the river?"
Xinding was extremely surprised to see Master Master Ming Yu appear.
"Abbot, why haven't you let go of this matter yet?" ===== CHAPTER 828 =====
