Chat group: In Daqin, Dongjun brought happiness to us

When Ying An appeared, he stood directly on the high altar. Even next to Ying An was the Vairocana Tathagata!

"Amitabha!" Master Yideng, who was peacefully worshipping the Buddha in the temple, chanted the Buddha's name, then slowly opened his eyes and said, "You are so mysterious. You are able to appear in the temple with such undetectable means. I never knew when such a young rising star like you appeared in the world of martial arts!"

After a slight pause, Master Yideng clasped his hands together, bowed, and nodded, saying, "I just don't know what you are asking for, Excellency, with such presumptuousness."

"Southern Emperor, Duan Zhixing?" Ying An looked at Master Yideng with a little surprise.

It is no wonder that Ying An showed a surprised expression when he saw Duan Zhixing. In fact, this Southern Emperor is indeed the highest-level existence Ying An has encountered in this world so far.

In Ying An's perception, even Hong Qigong, who was still able to maintain his self-awareness when the world was turned into a game, might not be able to compare with Duan Zhixing in terms of realm.

"The Southern Emperor no longer exists. Now only the old monk Yideng remains!" Yideng clasped his hands together and said, "May I ask, benefactor, are you here for these empty reputations?"

Shaking his head, Ying An said, "Whether you are the Southern Emperor or Yideng, it's still you! In the past, you were the Southern Emperor, and now you are Yideng!!"

His eyes suddenly lit up, and Yideng nodded in agreement, saying, "Your affinity with Buddhism is profound, and I admire you!"

Although Ying An has not learned anything about Buddhism, don't forget that the Hong Yi template he obtained was based on the Amitabha Sutra from the Da Chan Temple.

It can be said that in terms of Buddhist principles, Ying An is the person who truly masters the wisdom that can enlighten people.

With the three scriptures of the past, present, and future in hand, Ying An could be considered the reincarnation of the Buddha. A true Buddha!

"I came to see you today not for your false title of Southern Emperor, nor for your inheritance of Yideng!" Ying An shook his head and flew towards Yideng.

He casually pointed to the high-worshipped Buddha statue. Ying An asked, "What's the point of bowing to this gilded clay statue?"

Yideng hesitated for a moment and said, "What I'm bowing to is not a clay statue, but the Buddha!!"

Ying An grabbed with five fingers.

In an instant, the image of the Buddha statue on the altar suddenly changed and instantly turned into the appearance of Ying An.

"What about now?" Ying An asked with interest.

After hesitating for a moment again, Yideng seemed to have thought of something. He knelt directly on the cushion and respectfully bowed to the statue that had turned into the image of Ying An.

His expression was so pious that it was even more sincere and respectful than when he kowtowed to the Buddha statue just now.

"You're not bad! You really have great wisdom!"

The moment he replaced the Buddha statue on the altar with his own, Ying An seemed to have left some of the true meaning of the Amitabha Sutra on the statue.

Most people only see Ying An's image. However, those with a true affinity for Buddhism and wisdom can see through the surface of Ying An's statue and see the truth of his birth as a Buddha billions of times before.

What was on the altar wasn't a statue of Ying An, but all living beings! Or rather, the Buddha nature within all living beings! It was also their own Buddha nature.

At this moment, Yideng seemed like a pushover, even bowing down to Ying An's statue. But in reality, what he was truly worshipping was himself. It was the Buddha nature that was triggered by the true meaning of the Amitabha Sutra in the statue!

After paying homage to the statue, Master Yideng stood up, bowed his head towards Ying An, and said, "Disciple Yideng, I am honored to meet the Buddha! I beg the Buddha to guide me and help me escape the sea of ​​suffering!"

"I have three classics: the past, present, and future. If you possess great perseverance and wisdom, you can find the opportunity to transcend to the other side through these three classics! Are you willing to inherit my teachings?" Ying An asked.

Chapter 364: I wish to practice the Buddha’s teachings and spread the Buddha’s scriptures!

Master Yideng almost immediately bowed and saluted the moment Ying An finished speaking, saying, "Disciple wishes to practice the Buddha's teachings and spread the Buddha's scriptures!"

Looking at Master Yideng with approval, Ying An could see that Yideng might be the most talented person in the world in the way of spiritual cultivation.

Of course, this does not mean that Yideng is really like Han Fei, who can innovate the moment he obtains the method of soul cultivation, and even break the barrier of life and death and become a ghost immortal in just a few breaths.

On the contrary, in this regard, Yidengyuan is far from being comparable to Han Fei. At best, he is just an average person.

What really made Ying An look at Yideng with new eyes was the spiritual realm that Yideng reached after he realized his true nature.

He might not be able to establish a school of thought like the ancient philosophers, but he possessed a talent and aptitude in Buddhist techniques that others could hardly match.

However, if Yideng really wants to bring out his talent and qualifications, there is still a thin layer of window paper missing.

When that window paper is broken, even if Ying An doesn't appear now, he will become a martial arts existence far beyond the other four masters. Of course, this is based on the premise that Yideng actively practices.

After all, Yideng has always felt guilty about Zhou Botong and Yinggu. This guilt has made Yideng feel guilty over the years.

For a man like Ying An, the fact that Zhou Botong and Yinggu had an affair and even had a child together was an absolute disgrace. Even killing Zhou Botong and Yinggu, the adulterer and adulteress, would not ease the hatred in his heart.

If the same thing happened to Yideng, he would feel guilty for refusing to save Zhou Botong and Yinggu's child.

At this point, Ying'an could never understand Yideng.

All I can say is that Yideng's original mind is the Buddha nature that is extremely profound. And it is the kind of Buddha nature that can cut flesh to feed an eagle.

Yideng's nature is indeed well-suited to Buddhist cultivation. Although in the Yangshen world, merit is often associated with enlightenment, in reality, if one's nature is evil, one cannot attain Buddhahood; one can only become a being equal to Buddha.

Buddha and devil are separated by a single thought. Yideng is the true innate seed of Buddhahood that even Ying An marvels at.

After Yideng kowtowed deeply, Ying An used his powerful cultivation to condense a soul thought of a thunder tribulation again, and instilled all the three great classics of the Dachan Temple's past, present, and future into the thought of the thunder tribulation.

Then he sent this spiritual thought deep into Yideng's consciousness.

However, after completing all of this, Ying An hesitated for a moment, then pulled out the divine soul thought again. Since he wanted to pass on the Yang Shen technique, spread the Yang Shen meme, and improve the degree of integration, then he might as well hand over the rest of the Great Zen Temple's inheritance to Yi Deng.

As for what kind of cruel future this world will head towards after Ying An leaves, that is not something Ying An is worried about.

As long as Huang Rong holds the Lotus Thunder Pool in her hands, no one in the world can hurt her, unless she seeks death.

You have to know that Huang Rong holds the key to the future tribulation of all soul cultivators. Add to that the Lotus Thunder Pool's various magical properties, and if she can still be in danger even with this, then Ying An has no solution.

However, Yideng showed an expression of disbelief as Ying'an took away his soul and thoughts.

In fact, at the moment when the soul thought of this thunder tribulation entered his consciousness, Yideng was suddenly immersed in the mystery of the past, present and future.

But before he could truly comprehend the three great classics, the understanding he had in mind disappeared like an illusion.

It’s no wonder that Yideng was so disappointed and couldn’t accept it all of a sudden.

Ying An smiled broadly and said, "The three great classics of the past, present, and future are my foundation! If you want to spread the Dharma in the future, you must not teach me all the fundamental Dharma. I will give you some other inheritances so that you can expand the Buddhist community!"

"Thank you, Buddha!" ​​Yideng suppressed his inner desire for the three great classics. He clasped his hands together and bowed to Ying An.

This time, Ying An was truly giving it his all. Besides the three great classics of the past, present, and future, Ying An had almost completely crammed all the scriptures and books in the entire Grand Zen Temple into his mind.

It is no exaggeration to say that no matter who it is now, as long as they get this divine soul thought, they can rely on the inheritance in it to rebuild a large Zen temple.

The five great supreme mystical scriptures of alchemy: the Prajnaparamita Bodhisattva Sutra, the Bodhi Deva Sutra, the Eight Divisions of Divine Kings Sutra, the Dragon Zen Diamond Sutra, and the Sutra of the Formless Dharmas; the Dragon Elephant Dharma Seal, the Bull Demon Power Fist, the Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist, and the Bright Mandala Garbha Great Barrier...

Whether it was the Qi and Blood Immortal Martial Arts or the Secret Methods of the Spirit and Soul, which actually belonged to Buddhism, Ying An stuffed them all into his thoughts of thunder tribulation without any reservation.

After doing all this, Ying An sent the idea of ​​thunder tribulation back into Yideng's consciousness.

However, this time, it is different from before where it only has three classics.

The moment he once again accepted the thought of the thunder tribulation, Yideng was immediately overwhelmed by the huge amount of information in the thought, and his eyes went black, and he fell into a coma. He fell to the ground with a thud.

Accompanied by the movement of Yideng falling down.

Outside the door, the four people who were guarding Yideng's safety, namely the fisherman, the woodcutter, the farmer and the scholar, broke out in an instant.

Seeing Yideng unconscious in the room, a stranger named Ying An appeared.

The fisherman, the woodcutter, the farmer and the scholar were all furious.

They all rushed towards Ying An at the same time.

However, the martial arts of the fisherman, woodcutter, farmer and scholar are only second-rate at best, even in the martial arts world.

Not to mention posing a threat to Ying An, he couldn't even get in front of Ying An.

The moment they were about to approach Ying An, the four of them suddenly felt that the air around them had become sticky. Every move they made required enormous effort, but their speed of movement was incredibly slow.

"You...are...what...are..."

Under tremendous pressure, the voices of the four people - fisherman, woodcutter, farmer and scholar - became intermittent.

"These four people are good. They can become your protectors in the future and help you spread the Dharma!" Ying An glanced at the unconscious Yideng casually.

It was also at this moment that Yideng seemed to have completely escaped the impact of the huge amount of information, or in other words, the side effects of the impact of the huge amount of information completely disappeared from his body.

I woke up for no reason.

Yideng could clearly feel the changes in himself before and after, and he became more and more in awe of Ying An.

"The Buddha's guidance, this disciple will never forget!!"

"Your Majesty!! You..." The fisherman, woodcutter, farmer, and scholar clearly heard the voice behind them, but unfortunately, they were imprisoned by Ying An at the moment and could not even turn their heads to observe Yideng.

Chapter 365: Practicing chivalry in the true sense!

"How dare you four be so rude to the Buddha? Why don't you apologize to the Buddha right away!"

Yideng's voice made the four people, the fisherman, the woodcutter, the farmer and the scholar, subconsciously want to say something.

But suddenly, the force that was restraining their bodies disappeared. The four of them staggered and hurriedly turned their heads to look in the direction of Yideng.

Obviously, they only heard the voice but did not see the person. Although the voice was indeed familiar, the fisherman, woodcutter, farmer and scholar were still not sure about Yideng's safety.

Only when they saw that Yideng was safe and sound could they be truly sure of Yideng's condition.

At this moment, Ying An's figure disappeared out of thin air.

Watching Ying An disappear, Yideng sighed softly and said, "What a pity, you four don't have this fate!!"

"Your Majesty!" The fisherman, woodcutter, farmer and scholar subconsciously wanted to apologize.

But when they thought of Yideng's words before, the four of them turned around and were surprised to find that the guy of unknown origin had disappeared without a trace.

Zhu Ziliu gave a bitter laugh and asked, "Your Majesty, who was that person just now?"

"Amitabha!" Yideng clasped his hands together, chanted the Buddha's name, and then said, "People in this world are confused. Even if they see the Buddha in person, they cannot recognize his true appearance!"

As the former Southern Emperor Duan Zhixing and current bodyguard of Master Yideng, Zhu Ziliu did not become a monk with Yideng.

But Zhu Ziliu was very familiar with Buddhist scriptures, so he naturally knew very well what the Buddha meant.

It was precisely because he knew this that Zhu Ziliu found it even more unbelievable.

World Honored One is the name of Tathagata, the name of Buddha.

No matter how much he understood, Zhu Ziliu could not believe that Buddha really existed in the world.

However, seeing Yideng's confident words, Zhu Ziliu began to doubt himself, wondering if he really was blind to the value of gold and jade. Even if he met the Buddha, he would not be able to see through the worldly illusions.

"You mean... the man just now was a Buddha?" Dian Cang Yuyin, Qiaozi, Wu Santong and the other three asked in unison.

Yideng smiled with a sense of relief and said, "That's right. I'm deeply grateful to the Buddha for his favor. He has bestowed upon me the Three Classics of the Past, Present, and Future, allowing me to spread the Dharma. The Buddha once said that you four can protect the Dharma! I wonder if you four are willing to follow me and become monks?"

The four people, the fisherman, woodcutter, farmer and scholar, looked at each other in surprise.

In response, Yideng smiled softly and said, "That's fine. Without seeing the true Dharma, it's naturally hard to believe in the immeasurable Buddha Dharma! The four of you pack up, and we'll leave immediately for Tianlong Temple."

Tianlong Temple is a national temple granted by the Duan family of Dali. Even among the emperors of all dynasties, there is no telling how many of them voluntarily gave up the throne and became monks.

Logically, Duan Zhixing should have practiced at Tianlong Temple after abdicating his throne and becoming a monk. However, Yideng was tormented by the guilt of refusing to save Zhou Botong and Yinggu's son.

Finally, they chose to build a small Buddhist temple in this desolate mountain and wilderness.

But after receiving the inheritance of the Great Zen Temple from Ying An, Yideng completely let go of his obsession.

In other words, he has seen his true nature and is no longer tormented by guilt.

In this way, leaving the small Buddhist temple is a natural thing to do.

The fisherman, woodcutter, farmer and scholar were unaware of the change in Yideng's heart. Although they still had doubts about whether the Ying An they had just glanced at was the Buddha in the Buddhist scriptures, they still had doubts.

But when they heard that Yideng was actually planning to leave these desolate mountains and head for Tianlong Temple, the four of them were overjoyed.

The four men, fisherman, woodcutter, farmer and scholar, were once Duan Zhixing's capable ministers. However, because Duan Zhixing became a monk, the four men resigned from their official positions and gave up their wealth and glory.

But this does not mean that they really like to live out their lives alone in these desolate mountains and wilderness.

"We will obey the Emperor's orders!" The overjoyed fishermen, woodcutters, farmers and scholars all saluted in unison.

For Ying An, Dali is the only place that can spread the Yangshen method in this world and shoulder the responsibility of inheriting and promoting Buddhist classics.

Not to mention other things, just the ancestors of Dali, countless people eventually became monks in Tianlong Temple. This is enough to make people feel how prosperous Buddhism in Dali was.

After passing on the Great Zen Temple's classics to Yideng, Ying An simply left it alone. He believed that whether it was to relieve the torment of guilt or for other reasons, Yideng would spare no effort to promote the Great Zen Temple's heritage.

In fact, in comparison, whether it is Zhou Botong and the Quanzhen Sect, Huang Yaoshi's Peach Blossom Island lineage, or Ouyang Feng's White Camel Villa lineage, none of them can compare to Yideng.

The reason is very simple. Although Quanzhen Sect pursues the unity of the three religions, it is still a Taoist sect at its root, and it emphasizes that a method should not be passed on lightly.

Furthermore, Zhou Botong's own stubborn character made him unsuitable for such an event. Among the Seven True Immortals, Qiu Chuji was a skilled warrior. However, in every aspect, Qiu Chuji was no match for Yideng.

Huang Yaoshi's Peach Blossom Island is now depopulated. Aside from his daughter Huang Rong, only the resurrected Feng Heng remains. The former, with her quirky personality, is clearly not someone to be entrusted with the inheritance. While the latter possesses a photographic memory, she lacks prior martial arts training. Furthermore, even if they were to recall their former disciples, they could never compare to Yideng.
