C244 A Buddhist Debate

There were many cultivators participating in the God Sect's Dragon Meat Banquet, and the Moon Osmanthus Palace was filled to the brim. After hearing the Ancestor's words, everyone's eyes lit up.

They sat down and discussed the Dao, and debated the Zen principles.

This was a rare good thing that they had encountered in their nine lifetimes! Everyone couldn't help but breathe lightly as they nervously looked at these two mighty figures.

Monk Ten Directions was intelligent. He looked at Jiang Ling with a pair of Buddhist eyes.

A trace of surprise flashed across his heart. In his imagination, Emperor Sovereign of God Sect's strength was formidable. The Qi on his body should be deep in the ocean.

The Qi in this man's body was weak. He looked like a mortal.

Wisdom was praised as an eminent monk by the "Ten Directions Monk." His wisdom root was deep and powerful. After a surprised expression flashed across his face, his heart became as calm as an ancient well.

When Jiang Ling saw his appearance, he nodded in his heart.

No wonder he was praised by Buddha. He had some skills.

However, Jiang Ling could tell that this young monk had been immersed in the Buddhist scriptures for the past twenty years. This should be the first time he came down the mountain, and he was still 'young'.

"Little monk, you said that killing isn't right, right?" Jiang Ling said with a smile.

"Yes, killing is committing murder. After death, you will fall into hell." Hui Neng replied.

"Alright then, let me ask you, in the Buddhist scriptures, 'A bowl of water from Buddhism, 84,000 insects', is there such a saying?" Jiang Ling asked with a smile.

The cultivators attending the banquet were startled when they heard the Ancestor's question.

They, who didn't have a deep understanding of Buddhism and had heard of this Buddhist scripture before, all thought that this was a description of the powerful Wisdom Eye of the Buddhist Sect, and that they could see the most detailed things with a single glance.

"Master, is there any profound mystery behind the Ancestor's words?" Loong Wenzhang asked in a low voice. He asked the question that everyone was puzzled about.

Dean of Scarlet Sun Academy and Meng Haoran explained, "This Buddhist scripture reflects the powerful ability of a Buddhist expert to see through the world, but it can also be said that there are billions of living creatures in the water. According to the words of the Buddhist scripture, every cup of water you drink... It's like eating tens of thousands of living creatures."

After hearing Meng Haoran's explanation, everyone understood that the Ancestor's simple question contained a profound mystery.

Wisdom could read Buddhist scriptures, and had a deep understanding of Buddhism.

He quickly replied, "There is indeed a sentence in Buddhist scriptures, but the meaning behind it is to advise people to be good. When eating or drinking water, one should chant a spell to eliminate the disaster."

"For example, before Buddhists drink water, they will recite the water cleansing mantra to purify the water source. This reflects the great kindness of the Buddhists. "

" Our Buddhists drink water and eat vegetarian food, it's not like we haven't violated the Ring of Slaughter "

Hui Neng's words dispelled the doubts in everyone's hearts.

So it turned out that the eminent monks in Buddhism were like this! They would always have compassion in their hearts when eating and drinking, chanting incantations to transcend!

Everyone turned to look at the Ancestor with curious expressions.

Venerable Ancestor, did he get defeated by Ten Directions Monk? Would he get angry and then teach this ignorant little monk a lesson?

However, a faint smile appeared on Jiang Ling's face. He spoke unhurriedly.

"So that's how it is. Great Master has answered my doubts."

Hmm? The Ancestor actually admitted defeat? Everyone was shocked.

There wasn't the slightest bit of anger on Jiang Ling's face, and he continued to speak.

"Little monk, your Dharma name is' Ten Directions Tyrant ', and the' Great Buddha's Upheaval 'says,' All plants and trees in the Ten Directions have feelings, and are no different from humans. ' Plants and plants are human beings. When humans die, they will become Ten Directions Grass Trees. "

" The meaning of the Buddhist scriptures is that everything in the world has a spirit. "

"Then let me ask you, do the food and fruits you eat have a spirit or no spirit? When you eat them, will they be painful? You chant the purifying spell to edify them, are they sad or happy? "

After hearing Jiang Ling's question, he took out the profound Buddhist scripture from the depths of his mind. After thinking for a while, he could not help but clap his hands and praise.

"Ancestor, you are indeed extremely intelligent."

The others were very puzzled. Meng Haoran stroked his beard and explained, "Ancestor, this is using a son's spear to attack a son's shield!"

"There is indeed such a line in the Buddhist scriptures."

"If Wisdom is able to recognize this Buddhist scripture, then it would be directly overthrowing the Buddhist principles that he had previously explained and indirectly admitting that he had killed."

"If Hui is able to deny it, then it would be equivalent to lying through his teeth. Not only did he deny the Buddhist scriptures, he also violated the Ring of False Language, and he would also be sent to the Nether Realm of Hell."

When everyone heard Meng Haoran's explanation, they finally came to a realization. It turned out that the simple sentence of the Ancestor was so profound that it easily overturned the Buddhist principles that Hui Neng had explained earlier.

As expected, the Ancestor had great wisdom. He spoke in a roundabout manner, using the Buddhist principles of the Buddhist scriptures to prevent the monk from advancing or retreating.

When Hui Neng heard Jiang Ling's words, he lowered his head and pondered with a puzzled expression on his face.

"Little monk... I don't know. I hope you can give me some guidance."

Jiang Ling laughed. He stretched out his hand and took out a cup of tea from a nearby table.

He stretched out his index finger and lightly tapped on it.

"Buzz ~"

After a slight vibration, a small piece of tea leaf floated up from the cup, constantly changing.

Jiang Ling reached out his hand again and pointed.

The small tea leaf quickly became bigger, and then the flowers and fallen leaves kept growing. It was like a huge tree that reached the sky. The insects on the giant trees also continued to change, some of them diving into the depths of the sea. The color became darker. Some of them shook their bodies, and wings and giant claws grew out of their backs. They roared as they flew in the sky...

Everyone looked at these strange and strange forms of demons. They all knew that this was a miniature version of the evolution of a world that the Ancestor had evolved from a cup of water.

Hiss! Everyone was extremely shocked. It turned out that the Emperor Sovereign Almighty could actually achieve "One Flower, One World!"

Pah!

Jiang Ling gently put down the teacup. Instantly, the phantom image on the teacup disappeared.

Those who had witnessed the miraculous scene felt a sense of loss in their hearts.

Jiang Ling smiled at Hui Neng. "These are all illusions."

Then he pointed at the ant-like townspeople below and said, "Listen."

Hui Neng listened carefully and could faintly hear the laughter and laughter of the townspeople from below.

Their gratitude and happiness were not faked.

Hui Neng felt touched. She wanted to grab and write something, but it seemed like she did not manage to catch it.

"This is the truth." Jiang Ling's gentle voice sounded.

"What do you mean by eating, drinking, and chanting an incantation? You have violated the Ring of Death."0

"I killed a dragon, and used its flesh and blood to benefit thousands and thousands of families. The surrounding millions of ordinary people, after eating the Dragon Meat, could become cultivators. After entering the threshold of cultivation, they can resist the attacks of the Demonic Beast and the demons. I don't know how many tens of thousands of people have died."

"If I follow the Buddhist way of saving a life and building a seven-storied pagoda, my merit should be enough to become a Buddha, right?"

"Morals and morals are not something that can be said out loud, nor are they created by chanting Buddhist scriptures, but by doing good deeds to produce good karma."

"On the surface, it's just that reciting the scriptures is a false Buddha!"

Jiang Ling's indifferent voice was like a huge bell in Hui Neng's ears.

Buddhism did not mean that everything had a spirit, and that people wanted to seek good. They ate vegetarian food and prayed for Buddha. Why did they care so much about the little bugs, and why would they only ask these ordinary mortals to provide incense offerings and money? What did they say about experiencing a calamity and being able to enjoy good fortune in the next life?

Buddhism had always advocated good, but why didn't they see them killing demons and devils like the God Sect, benefiting the people of a region?

Could it be that Buddhism was all hypocritical, just pretending to be a false Buddha that lied about their incense offerings? !

The aura in Hui Neng's body surged. His mouth tasted sweet, and a mouthful of fresh blood gushed out.

"Eh." Hui Neng gritted his teeth and forcefully swallowed the fresh blood.

Hui Neng pressed his palms together and said, "The Ancestor's dharma is profound and this little monk is ignorant and shallow. I admire him."
