C1148 Conversation
The monk walked to the edge of the sea, his clear eyes slowly closing, a buddhist light appearing behind him, as if he was a living buddha at this moment, a buddhist chant was chanted, and then he stepped out.
Everyone looked at the monk.
Some were shocked, while others disdained.
On the other hand, Xiao Chen and the others stared at his back; it was unknown what they were thinking.
"That bald donkey was overestimating himself. He even dared to cross the sea when he was at the Immortal Emperor Stage Level 6. The two of them were both stronger than him earlier, yet they were both swallowed by the sea. He's simply courting death." Someone disdained.
"Monk is also in the difficulty of this Red Dust Sea …"
"Let alone leaving, even if I fly, I won't be able to make it. I might drown in just a few steps."
"..."
Everyone talked to each other.
The monk turned a deaf ear and recited the Buddhist chant, "If you speak the truth, the heart has no truth, such as the waves of the sea, the images in the mirror and the dream. "From time to time, it will appear, and so will the state of the heart. There's no problem with that, the next stage is reincarnation …"
He stepped into the sea.
Everyone was looking at him, waiting for him to be swallowed by the sea, but what followed next was shocking. The Buddhist light from the monk covered the sky, as if it could give him a blow, he was walking on the sea, his shoes were not touching the water, the sea surface was completely calm, and the Buddha was reciting Buddhist scriptures on the surface of the sea, slowly walking forward.
This caused countless people to be frightened out of their wits.
He could actually enter the sea without sinking!
This...
Xiao Chen's eyes flashed as well.
Then, he recalled the prophecy from the Buddha's mouth. He read it over and over again. Gradually, Xiao Chen's eyes flashed with a resplendent light.
The Buddha was giving up his life to cross the sea and recite Buddhist scriptures. This was a reminder to them.
The sea in front of him was the sea of the mortal world.
It can make one sink into depravity and lose one's way. Only in Buddhism can one cultivate in peace, have no desires, sever all emotions and desires, and eliminate past and present lives in order to enter the realm of anatta mental state.
This Red Dust Sea was a test of their mentality.
Xiao Chen looked at the sea of dust in front of him and slowly said, "If the scene in front of me is real, then I should ask myself whether my heart is real or not. Just like the sea of dust in front of me, even if I sink into depravity and cannot escape, as long as I hold my heart, I will be like a flower in the mirror, with five injuries to my heart."
As his voice fell, Xiao Chen turned around and an ancient Buddhist body appeared behind him, releasing thousands of buddhist lights that covered the sky. Although Xiao Chen was in the mortal world, he looked solemn and dignified, as if he were the leader of all buddhas, Shakya Tathagata.
His eyes looked at Shen Lei and the rest of the seven, and said slowly: "lacrimal, Qianyu, you all only need to clear your minds, defend your hearts, and are unable to sway due to the water of the mortal world. Otherwise, you all won't be able to traverse this sea, understand?"
Everyone nodded. Xiao Chen smiled faintly.
Then, he stepped out.
He cultivated the Book of Reincarnation, had the power of reincarnation and the protection of the Golden Buddha. At this moment, Xiao Chen silently recited the Buddhist Scripture in his heart as he took a step forward. His feet actually blossomed and supported Xiao Chen up.
It really was a lifetime's worth of flowers.
With each step, the destiny of a flower would fall.
Xiao Chen thought to himself that he did not understand Buddhist Dharma. However, he was able to use the power of reincarnation through the Book of Life and Death to recall the past. He, the High Monk, died and became a Buddha.
Though it was only in the Rebirth Scroll.
But it was also a feedback to himself.
Thus, Xiao Chen's body had the power of the buddhist way.
He could cross the sea.
Xiao Chen stepped forward, and Shen Lei and the others followed his instructions. After that, they stepped out, and although there were some ripples on the surface of the sea, they stayed above it. However, their feet were soft, so the seven of them did not dare to borrow too much strength.
After the Buddha, Xiao Chen stepped out.
Flowers bloomed with every step.
After that, the six people beside him, Shen Lei, Luo Qianyu, cutie, Long Xuanji, Yan Zhenyang, his younger sister Yan Xixue, stepped into the sea and slowly advanced. Although they could not catch up to Xiao Chen, they were already far away.
This made everyone feel both shock and envy.
If Xiao Chen and the others could become Heaven's Pride, then they could do the same.
After an unknown period of time, Chu Yangxu stood up. His body was filled with fighting spirit, which allowed him to understand the power of the way of the Buddha, and was able to walk across the sea.
Then there was the Holy Empire's Prince Dong Huangqingfeng. He also comprehended the power of Buddhism and rode the waves at an extremely fast speed. Then there was Zhuge Lingyan, the heaven's pride expert Mu Qianshan, Yue Lingxiao and so on.
All of the heaven's pride level experts began to step forward.
There were also rogue cultivators and outsiders.
At this moment, a shocking scene appeared. Thousands of people were walking on the sea with slow steps. A thousand-meter-long dragon was swimming on the sea, and the one leading them was still the Buddha.
Out of ten thousand people, his cultivation might not be considered top, but if it was his personality, he believed that no one else dared to call him a disciple, not even Xiao Chen.
As a result, he was unable to keep up with the Buddha's speed.
But he was second, and no one surpassed him.
This also explained some things from the side.
Xiao Chen defended himself firmly. However, since Gu Hai was from the mortal sea, he naturally had karmic power infecting him. Seven emotions and six desires rushed over simultaneously. Xiao Chen had the Dragon Eye of the Nirvana Realm, the ability to destroy illusions, and the Rebirth Scripture to protect his body.
But the others weren't so lucky.
Some people's anger assaulted their hearts and fell into the sea of bitterness. Some people were entangled by love and sank into the abyss. Some people were entangled by sorrow and couldn't free themselves. There were also people who were obsessed with benefits and were unable to extricate themselves.
Everything could be activated through karma.
Ten thousand people crossing the sea, but the number was rapidly decreasing.
Looking around, there was less than half of them left. The rest were all swallowed up by the Red Dust. It was unknown how long they walked for. Xiao Chen slowly opened his eyes; the Buddha in front of him had already landed on the shore.
As for him, he was still quite a distance away.
Xiao Chen wanted to turn around and look at Shen Lei and the others, but he suddenly heard the Buddha's voice: "Gui Shi, do not turn around. If you turn around, you will reach the bottomless abyss."
Xiao Chen felt a chill in his heart.
However, he still couldn't help but take a glance at it. It almost caused the Buddhist light to dissipate; the seven emotions and six desires were unable to extricate themselves.
Behind him, his dearest kin had been brutally defeated.
His wife became someone else's plaything and was having fun. His friends and brothers all fell apart and killed each other. Even though Xiao Chen had the protection of the Buddhist light, he almost collapsed.
After that, Xiao Chen focused his mind.
Then he gradually dispelled that thought and continued to walk.
After two hours, Xiao Chen stepped onto the other side of the river.
He had successfully crossed the sea.
After the Buddha, this was a person who had stepped onto the other side of the river.
Looking at Xiao Chen, the Buddha had a smile on his face, "Just now, I saw that Xiao Ju Shi was able to cross the sea safely. Furthermore, every step he took was like a flower. It seems like Xiao Ju Shi and I were fated together."
Xiao Chen nodded to the Buddha.
"It was fortunate that the Buddha had woken up earlier. Otherwise, Xiao Chen would have already fallen into the sea of mortals. The Buddha's Dharma is very profound, and his heart is very firm. Xiao Chen is impressed."
Buddha chanted the Buddhist prayer.
"Xiao Jushi is not from my Buddhist Sect, but his buddhist arts are very profound. This truly makes me admire him. If there is a chance, this humble one will definitely have a good talk with Xiao Jushi about Buddhism."
"Alright, Xiao Chen will wait for the Buddha."
After the two of them exchanged a few words, they stopped talking. Xiao Chen's thoughts were focused on Shen Lei, Luo Qianyu and the rest of the seven. At this moment, they had just stepped through half of the Red Dust Sea, so they would definitely be affected.
"Xiao Jushi, there's no need to worry. The heavens will help the worthy. A few of your friends will definitely pass the test."
As the sound of his voice faded, the Yan siblings sank to the bottom of the sea.
Xiao Chen: "…"
Buddha, "..."
Buddha, do you want to slap your face?
You just finished speaking, my friend Chen Hai …
The Buddha had also not expected such a sudden situation, so he said indifferently: "Since sinking into the sea of red dust is just a training for them, it might be a good thing. Xiao Jushi, according to my understanding, this sea of red dust does not harm anyone, so Xiao Jushi need not worry too much."
Just as they were talking, Long Xuanji and his wife sank into the ocean.
"If the Red Dust Sea really devours human lives, then how many people in Holy Road are able to pass through? Wouldn't they all be buried in the Red Dust Sea?"
Luo Qianyu and cutie sunk into the ocean.
Xiao Chen: "…"
The Buddha still wanted to say something, but Shen Lei also sunk.
Not far from the other shore.
Xiao Chen raised his head to look at him, Buddha, I beg you, please stop. My brother, friends and wife have all sunk into the sea …
Suddenly, Xiao Chen turned around and looked at the Buddha.
"Buddha."
The Buddha put her hands together, "Xiao Juesi."
"Am I pretty?" Xiao Chen's words caused the Buddha to be stunned before he smiled and said, "Although Xiao Jushi is outstandingly elegant and dashing, he is nothing more than a piece of trash."1
Xiao Chen nodded.
The Buddha did not understand, but his heart felt much better.
Then he stepped forward.
The Buddha looked at Xiao Chen in shock, "Where is Xiao Juesi?"
Xiao Chen said indifferently, "Enter the Red Dust Sea to save him."
With that sentence, the Buddha shook her head.
"Little Jussi, do not use words to attack the outsider. The Red Dust Sea will not threaten their lives, just treat it as a training."
Xiao Chen turned around and looked at the Buddha. He said apologetically, "Buddha, Xiao Chen is an ordinary man. Although he has the buddhist skills, he cannot be separated from the mortal world. How can I not save his wife and brother?" "I can see through the world of mortals, but I cannot. If I watch everything happen and do nothing, I will let down my own heart. Thank you for your advice, and Xiao Chen will take his leave."
After saying that, Xiao Chen took large strides forward without looking back.
Behind him, the Buddha followed.
Xiao Chen frowned.
"Xiao Jushi, don't misunderstand. Listening to you, I've discovered that I was wrong. For all of us in the Buddhist Sect, we should rescue people from the Sea of Bitterness, from the hassle of karma. Therefore, I should also follow Xiao Jushi into the Red Dust Sea to save people."
Thus, the Buddha would travel together with Xiao Chen.
"Do the Buddha want to save those who have sunk into the sea of mortals? But they are not related to the Buddha, so why is Master doing this? "
The Buddha gave a faint smile and said, "To save a person's life is better than to create a seven-layered pagoda. This is a great achievement. Although I am not related to them, I have to go through hell with them and forget them."
Xiao Chen smiled, "I admire the kindness of a Buddha!"
