Shen Gongbao Great Sage Persuading Death Immortal

Chapter 177 Yuanshi War
"That's good, that's good." The Taoist leader put his hands together and said with a smile on his face: "Come from where you came from, go to where you are going, and achieve enlightenment from cause to effect through the true path, so it is called Tathagata."

"Because he came to the three realms on the way of the True Tathagata to transform, he is called the Tathagata. He is also the Tathagata of the Yingshen." The Sage of the Supreme Purity snorted coldly: "Jie Yin, you are deceiving me that I don't understand the Dharmakaya, the Sambhogakaya, and the Yingshen?" "

"Although the Tathagata has self-realized the perfect Dharma nature, the Dharma body has no form and cannot be seen by living beings. In order to benefit all living beings, it manifests the Sambhogakaya and the Response body."

"The name of the Dharmakaya Buddha, Vairocana Buddha, is the nature of the Buddha's Dharma. It always resides in the hearts of all living beings. In the view of cessation and nirvana, it realizes the reality of transcendence. Therefore, all living beings have the Buddha-nature."

"The name of the Sambhogakaya Buddha, Lusena Buddha, is the body that achieves Buddhahood through practice. It is the foundation of all the pure lands in the ten directions and three times. It is also the source of the cycle of your Buddhist merits and karma, and the perfection and unhindered purity of the pure lands."

"In response to the name of the Buddha, Shakyamuni Buddha is the body that appears to save all sentient beings in the world. He is also the ancestor of the Mahayana of Buddhism and the Tathagata of the supreme orthodoxy."

"Mahayana comes from Hinayana and is self-satisfied. You two Hinayana leaders actually say that you don't know where the Mahayana leader is?"

The Sage of Shangqing sneered again and again: "If you say this, who will believe it?"

Taoist Jieying sighed and raised his eyelids. His deep pupils were full of wisdom, but when facing the Sage of Shangqing, he was full of helplessness.

The Three Pure Ones symbolize the three images of old, middle and young respectively, representing the three directions.

The Moral Goddess is the leader. He can sit wherever he wants as the sign of immortality. He is a banner and a spiritual pillar, and his existence is the meaning.

Yuanshi Tianzun is the leader, responsible for the overall development of Immortal Dao, laying out the future direction, opening up the track, and deepening the system. In a sense, the business that Bodhi Taoist is responsible for is similar to Yuanshi Tianzun.

Therefore, at this time, Yuanshi Tianzun and Bodhi Taoist will go to Daluotian to discuss the Tao.

Trouble is Bodhi, and Bodhi is Trouble.

The direction of Lingbao Tianzun is completely opposite to that of Yuanshi Tianzun. If Yuanshi Tianzun plays the role of a good elder, then Lingbao Tianzun is an evil boy.

The Immortal Way needs Yuanshi Tianzun, a good person, to be good at dancing, and establish good relations with the Queen Mother of the West, the Eastern Prince... and other powerful people of the Divine Way. It also needs the evil person Lingbao Tianzun to intimidate the heretics, kill decisively, ruthlessly, and defend the status of the Immortal Way.

A mouthful of the Immortal Killing Sword, Daluo Immortal, stained his clothes with blood. Who wouldn’t be afraid after seeing it? Lingbao Tianzun was born to kill people.

Logically speaking, it should not be Lingbao Tianzun who leads the Taoist to deal with the hawks.

He was supposed to be like a moral god, aloof, serving as a spiritual leader, ruling by doing nothing. Even if he took action, it would be like an antelope hanging its horns, leaving no traces, moisturizing things silently, like a dream or an illusion.

Fighting and killing is really not in line with the position of the Taoist Taoist.

However, there are really not enough people in the West. Morality corresponds to Jie Ying, and Yuanshi corresponds to Bodhi. So who will correspond to Lingbao.

Whether it is Ran Deng, Maitreya, or Medicine Buddha, one of the Four Saints is still short of the unbreakable Immortal-killing Sword Formation.

Apart from the Third Buddha, when other Buddhas and Bodhisattvas come, it is not a negotiation, but a surrender.

Unless it’s Sakyamuni…

"But...he is Sakyamuni."

"Namo Master Sakyamuni Buddha."

The Taoist leader sighed softly, pronounced a Buddhist name, shook his head and said, "It's not that I don't want to say it, but I really don't know."

"Buddha does not show his supernatural power in the world, but he resides in the world with his mortal body in the three realms and six realms, in the ten directions and three times, in the countless universes as many as the sands of the Ganges River."

"Without supernatural powers, his lifespan is less than a hundred years, and he looks like a mortal. How can he find it? How can he find it?"

The Sage of Shangqing frowned slightly. If he really wanted to find it, he would have to search across the universe, go through time and space one by one, and spend a long time searching.
But this kind of movement is destined to shock the world. Everyone in the sky knows that they are looking for Sakyamuni, and even if they find him, it will be meaningless.

"There is no trace of the Buddha."

"We can't find Shakya."

The Taoist leader smiled softly and said, "Can the three fellow Taoists find the Supreme Being?"

"We are innately divine, they are mortal, they are different."

"Elder brother may be able to find it." Sage Shangqing said calmly, and the elder brother he mentioned was the Moral God.

Ma Yuan, who was shivering in the water of the Eight Treasures Merit Pool with his head buried like an ostrich, couldn't help but be stunned. What was the difference between this Supreme Being and the Taoist Heavenly Lord?

In the cognition of all creatures in the ancient world, the Supreme Moral Supreme Being is the Supreme Supreme Being, and the Supreme Supreme Being is the Supreme Moral Supreme Being.

"maybe."

The Taoist leader smiled softly, took out his flawless golden arm, picked a golden lotus of merit, and placed it on the head of the Immortal Ma Yuan. In an instant, three flowers gathered on the top of the head, five qi came towards the yuan, the avenue roared, and the laws trembled.

Ma Yuan did not experience any spiritual practice, but he immediately attained the golden immortal realm.

From then on, it can be said that there is no future for Ma Yuan to be King Buddha and Ma Yuan Dao.

Ma Yuan was overjoyed and was about to thank him when he suddenly noticed Lingbao Tianzun's indifferent expression and froze in place.

"It's like a dream and an illusion."

Lingbao Tianzun snorted coldly, and a trace of white air appeared on the tip of his nose, as vigorous as a swimming dragon, just like the sharpness of a slaying immortal, flowing with the aura of destruction of luck and doom.

The sword flashed and white energy flew up. In an instant, the three flowers on his head were cut off, and with five qi in his chest, Ma Yuan did not retain the realm of golden immortal, not to mention the realm of heavenly immortal, and was completely reduced to a mortal.

"Fellow Taoist, why bother?"

Taoist Jie Yin shook his head and said, "It's just a dream after all. It's better to have a big dream."

Lingbao Tianzun said coldly: "I was drunk and dreamed of death. It was only when I woke up from the dream that I realized that my own death was imminent. What was the difference between an unheard master and a mortal who had never heard the Tao."

The Taoist leader sighed and said with a look of compassion in his eyes:
"Here, the world is like a hut, and the worldly affairs wear away the green hair. After all, a few people really have deer, and they don't know that they dream of being fish all day long."

"Life is empty, the world is an illusion, and all living beings are just a dream."

"Why force it?"

"Even if my disciple dies, he will also go to the road of death." Lingbao Tianzun looked at Ma Yuan with a ruthless expression, his expression was calm, and he asked calmly: "Are you alive in a dream, or are you dead in real life?"

Ma Yuan was trembling all over, his teeth were chattering, and he was dripping with cold sweat. It was as if he was in decline. He realized that he had never understood Teacher Lingbao, no, he had never understood these aloof saints and leaders.

They can be as humane as ordinary people in the market one second, or as cold and ruthless the next second, allowing themselves to make life-and-death decisions.

"It's illusory, it's illusion." Taoist Jieyin seemed to have broken Ma Yuan's mind, and just sighed: "After all, all living beings are ignorant, contaminated by all kinds of acquired dust, but they don't know the original true spirit."

"It doesn't matter if you laugh or curse, it doesn't matter if you praise or belittle me, it doesn't matter if you are a saint or a mortal, I am just me, neither increasing nor decreasing, neither dirty nor pure, neither born nor destroyed."

Under Lingbao Tianzun's cold and merciless death gaze, Ma Yuan, who had become a mortal, could not hold on to his Taoist heart at all. He kowtowed on the ground and said with tears streaming down his face: "I want to live, I want to live!"

Death is the only option in the eternal hardship. In the face of life and death, few people can keep their original intention unchanged and their Taoist mind unmoved.On the one hand, there is no life in the ten deaths, cut off the three flowers, and remove the five qi.

On the one hand, there is no disaster, no calamity, enlightenment, golden immortality, and becoming a Buddha.

Two saints give a choice, and all fools know how to choose.

Lingbao Tianzun was silent, but there was a hint of disappointment in his eyes. Things that should have been expected, and he had witnessed it countless times, why did he still have a glimmer of hope and expectation for Ma Yuan.

He is this kind of person, and as a teacher, he knows it best.

"Good, good." The Taoist guide looked indifferent, smiled calmly, and sent the Golden Immortal Horse Yuan out of the Eight Treasures Merit Pond, to the depths of a pure land of Buddhism.

Then the Taoist leader turned around, looked at Lingbao Tianzun, put his hands together and smiled and said: "This is how it should be, why bother."

"One calamity transcends two or three people."

Lingbao Tianzun looked at Daluotian, covering up the disappointment in his eyes, and just asked calmly: "Bodhi and Yuanshi are optimistic about that little guy Shen Gongbao."

"What do you think?"

Taoist Jie Yin spread his hands and said with a slight smile: "I sit here and watch. Brother Bodhi and fellow Taoist Yuanshi are monks of the same path."

"From the beginning, I saw my true nature, and my mind of Bodhi enlightened me. There is nothing in all phenomena, and I see it from the empty line."

"The two of them have similar paths, tastes, and eyesight. It is normal for Bodhi to fall in love with Yuanshi's disciples."

"Yuanshi Tianzun didn't take a fancy to Zhengfa Ming Tathagata a few times before, so he detained Sun Fo and the others."

"That's true." Lingbao Tianzun laughed, seemed to be feeling emotional, and also stated: "You are exactly like my senior brother, your vision is ridiculously high."

"For so many years, Senior Brother Daode has had a great mage from Xuandu who is on the same level as Guangchengzi and Duobao, but in the eyes of Daode Tianzun, he can only be regarded as quite satisfactory."

The Taoist leader smiled slightly and said: "Fellow Taoist Dao is not recruiting disciples, but looking for fellow Taoists. If you can't reach a height similar to him, then what's the use of accepting disciples."

"The same goes for you." Lingbao Tianzun said with emotion: "You still don't even have a direct descendant. You said there are so many talented people in Dongtu, but you didn't take a fancy to any of them."

"Actually, there is." The Taoist who led him smiled and said, "Pindao wanted to accept Taoist Nanhua as his disciple, but unfortunately he was wrong in the end."

Nanhua Taoist, Nanhua Tianzun, Zhuang Zhou!

That butterfly dreams of me, and I dream of the great real person who is a butterfly.

He is the only one in the universe whose path is similar to that of leading Taoists, and he can discuss Taoism in dreams.

"Nan Hua, he is indeed an anomaly." Lingbao Tianzun said with a strange expression: "At the beginning, senior brother did intend to accept him as the second true successor, but wait, wait, Nan Hua went out of his own way, and was a little bit like senior brother Daode. It doesn’t matter.”

"There is only a nominal master-disciple status. In fact, it is Nanhua himself who has enlightened, proved, and preached the Tao. He did not go to the Great Luotian, but dreamed of a land of nothingness, and opened up a branch in our Taoist sect."

"Sometimes the disciples' talents are too outstanding, which is not a good thing. The teacher does not give any guidance, and the students realize it on their own, which makes us old guys feel frustrated."

The Taoist who accepts and guides is noncommittal. With his character, he preaches in dreams and accepts disciples in dreams. Anyone who can break through the dream and witness the reality is his disciple.

But, looking at it on the other hand, if there is a monk who can break the truth and has a proper Daluo posture, he will be able to achieve great success.

This kind of monk is independent and can easily follow his own path. He does not need the guidance of teachers and seniors at all. He is truly amazing and talented.

This forms an endless cycle, either you don't like it, or you like it because you can become a great player.

"Shen Gongbao's qualifications are mediocre." Lingbao Tianzun changed the subject and said: "Compared to the monsters in the previous tribulations, there is no hope of becoming a Daluo."

"According to mortals, the rise of each Da Luo can be written into a novel, and each Da Luo is a unique protagonist."

"I don't see any protagonist character in Shen Gongbao."

According to normal logic, Zhengdao Daluo must be the charter that stirs up the storm and shocks the world.

Things like "I am Zhao Gongming after Rebirth", "The Return of Sanxiao from the Ancient World", "The Rise of the Ancestral Dragon of the Gods", "Tai Yi Zhen Zhenshi from the Ancient World", "I am the Emperor of Heaven"...these are normal Daluo Rise trajectory.

"Because a disciple is like a teacher."

The guide Taoist Old God Zai Zai said: "Shen Gongbao is a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun, so he is naturally a true moral immortal. He restrains his anger, his immortal energy is misty, and he is harmonious with light and dust."

"At this time, a teacher is needed to give guidance, activate the tribulation energy in Shen Gongbao, and teach him how to enter the tribulation, lead the tribulation, break the tribulation, destroy the tribulation, and rob the heavens and the world."

"That's it!" Lingbao Tianzun clapped his hands immediately, with a look of sudden realization on his face, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your guidance, fellow Taoist."

"Good, good."

The Taoist leader put his hands together and smiled lightly, with the radiance of wisdom in his eyes.

No matter how hard you try, the situation has been decided and the fate is like this. The great wish of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva will eventually return to his throne.

"This boy Duobao will go by in the future. He will light lamps in his left and right hands. Maitreya is a disciple of Buddhism. The four great Bodhisattvas below, Manjushri, Samantabhadra, Avalokitesvara and Ksitigarbha are all disciples of the Chan Sect."

"Although there are three thousand Buddhas, they are just like Ma Yuan and are not very useful."

"You still need your teacher and me to arrange one or two helpers for you, otherwise you won't be able to defeat these shady bald donkeys."

Lingbao Tianzun murmured in his heart, but his murderous intent was restrained and a smile appeared on his face.

For a time, the Eight Treasures Merit Pool was filled with joy, and only the injured world of Yuanshi Tianzun was formed.

Outside the sky, Yuanshi Tianzun's heart suddenly moved, and a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes. Who is this Da Luo who does not know whether to live or die? He silently recited his true name in his heart.

Yuanshi Tianzun was about to make a calculation when the Bodhi Taoist on one side brushed down the Seven Wonderful Treasure Tree. Even one of Tianzun's billions of golden flowers was brushed down.

"What a great Bodhisattva!"

Yuanshi Tianzun said angrily, waving the Pangu flag in his hand, and the chaotic energy was surging. Although it was a fake attack, it was a real attack, and some anger was vaguely caused by the friction.

As the saying goes, peers are enemies.

On my side, I am emphasizing that the Tao is poor and seeing Yuanshi. On your side, you are enlightened under the bodhi tree, snatching the same source of life, and fancying similar disciples.

Pindao just trained a Shen Gongbao here, and you shyly launched a Ksitigarbha over there.

I really think that I, Yuanshi Tianzun, am blind.

Starting from the Yuanyang Realm, the bald donkey has too many thoughts, eat me with an axe!
