I'm an immortal in heaven

Chapter 1256 Asking the Immortal Way, Watching the Heavenly Army (2)

The difference from Taoist Hongjun's side is that the atmosphere of the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha is completely different. I saw the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha sitting cross-legged in the center of the stone platform, and all the other monks sat in a circle around the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha. .

When Xu Hongyuan and his group landed on the stone platform, the Great Sun Tathagata just randomly ordered a monk to come to him.

The monk was wearing brocade robes, and was extremely excited after being spotted by the Great Sun Tathagata. He immediately bowed to the Great Sun Tathagata and bowed his hands: "Xiaoxian Yuan Kuang, I pay my respects to the Great Sun Tathagata."

Da Ri Tathagata looked at Yuan Kuang with a smile, and asked after a while, "What doubts do you have?"

Yuan Kuang bowed and said: "My lord, Xiaoxian was originally a monk of the Young God Sect. Just now Xiaoxian heard that the Venerable explained to others about 'good, evil, and compassion', so Xiaoxian became suspicious. The Master of the Young God Sect and the orders of the elders have killed many monks, so I wonder if this counts as sinful karma?"

"Forget it." The Great Sun Tathagata nodded and said, "All killing is a crime."

Seeing Yuan Kuang's expression gradually dimming, Dari Tathagata changed his tone and said, "But there are exceptions."

"Oh?" Yuan Kuang regained his energy immediately, and asked hastily, "May I ask your lord, who can be an exception?"

Dainari Tathagata Buddha said: "Killing to protect all living beings is not considered a crime. For example, the heavenly soldiers and generals who attack and kill treacherous and rebellious people in order to protect all living beings in the three realms are not considered criminal karma."

"Huh!" Xu Hongyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest lightly, and then said to Lihua, Yaosheng, and Zhuang Yantong with a smile, "I thought I had committed a heinous crime."

The three of Lihua: "."

Yuan Kuang's previously radiant face dimmed again. He is not a heavenly soldier or general, which means he still has sinful karma.

"Can Buddha eliminate sins?" Yuan Kuang asked expectantly.

Now whether it is Shaoshenzong, Zaijizong or Donghuozong monks, they all urgently need to find a new "spiritual sustenance".

Because their original belief is their leader, now the three great ancestors are suppressed by Fang Jian, and the three religions and three sects are all banned.

Those monks of the Three Religions in front launched a suicide attack on the royal city, which is an extreme manifestation of the collapse of faith.

As for Yuan Kuang's question, Dainichi Tathagata Buddha can tell him very accurately: "Yes! Buddhas and Bodhisattvas can eliminate sin karma for sentient beings. This is called salvation."

What the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha said is not wrong. Although the sin karma is in charge of the underworld, there is another authority system above the underworld: forgiveness of sins.

This authority is in the hands of the 'Emperor of the Earth Official', who will bestow the authority of 'pardoning sins' to all those who have achieved the status of heaven, Tao, and Buddha.

In other words, they can use their great power and merit to save other people with sinful karma and eliminate their sinful karma, which is also recognized by the underworld.

Ability is one thing, but authority is another. Does Daluo Jinxian have the ability to save other people's sins?Of course there is, but heaven doesn't give you this authority, and the underworld doesn't recognize it, so what can you do?

Unless the person you have transformed never goes to the underworld, but this is impossible. Among the three realms, from Hunyuan Wuji Luo Jinxian down to an ordinary mortal spirit, after death, the soul will belong to the underworld. This is the law of heaven rules.

The forgiveness of sins is also divided into "forgiveness of life" and "forgiveness of death". The so-called forgiveness of life refers to the forgiveness of sins of a monk or living being during his lifetime, so that he will not be imprisoned and troubled by sins.

Only one Da Luo Jinxian is needed to complete the forgiveness of life, because the great power of Da Luo Jinxian is enough to protect a living being from its sins.

But the forgiveness of death is the good and evil sins that will be settled in the underworld after death, and this is the most important thing, which is impossible for people without the authority of the heavenly court.

But this also leads to another problem, even if you are pardoned, if you fall and return to the underworld, if the person who pardoned you does not have the right to forgive sins, then the underworld will still be liquidated.

Therefore, Buddhist Bodhisattvas and Buddhas must have the authority to forgive sins. After all, Daoists and Buddhas are senior and have great face.

Moreover, no matter it is Taoism or Buddhism, they have already opened up their own way. If Taoism and Buddha do not exist, the two concepts of "Tao" and "Buddha" will always exist and will not disappear.

What about Xuanjiao?As soon as Taoist Master Hongjun dies, Xuanjiao will disappear immediately, leaving no trace in the long river of history.

On the other hand, there are "demons", "demons", "ghosts" and "monsters" who enjoy the same treatment as Taoism and Buddhas. However, except for demons who may need a part of forgiveness authority, the remaining three basically do not need it. .

For example, the Demon Cult, why do they need the authority to forgive sins?We're just criminals, right?The more crimes you commit, the more you become a 'demon'.

As for the true demons of the Demon Sect, it is naturally impossible for the underworld to measure them with the standards of good and evil of normal creatures. The liquidation process of real devils is different from that of normal creatures.

"I beg the Buddha to be merciful and save the little immortal." Yuan Kuang hastily bowed to the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha.

The Great Sun Tathagata smiled, and then the Sanskrit sound rolled out of his mouth: "Put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately."

The Sanskrit sound directly hit the depths of the soul, Yuan Kuang was shocked first, then shuddered, and then bloody tears flowed from his eyes, his knees bent, and he fell to his knees on the ground with a 'plop'.

Seeing blood and tears in Yuan Kuang's eyes, he knelt down on the ground, bowed his head to the sky with five hearts and kowtowed: "Please be enlightened by Buddha."

Seeing this, Dari Tathagata immediately stretched out his right hand, placed it lightly on top of Yuan Kuang's head, and then recited the Buddha's name: "Namo Amitabha, since you have the heart to return to righteousness and serve the Buddha kindly, the poor monk should save you. "

I saw Da Ri Tathagata dressed in a white monk robe without wind, and bursts of mighty power spread out, and holy and clean fairy lights shone on Da Ri Tathagata, making everyone on the stone platform feel like a spring breeze and refreshed their minds. rather.

"There are three refuges in my Buddhist school. I take refuge in the Buddha, I take refuge in the Dharma, and I take refuge in the Sangha. There are the Four Noble Truths, the Eightfold Path, the Twelve Links, and the Eight Precepts." Dainari Tathagata said with thunderous Sanskrit voice.

Dainari Tathagata Buddha said: "Since you take refuge in the Buddha and take the Buddha as your teacher, from today onwards, and even at the end of your life, you must not take refuge in heavenly demons, heretics, evil spirits and gods. Can you hold it?"

Yuan Kuang replied, "My disciple can hold it."

Dainichi Tathagata Buddha said: "Since you take refuge in the Dharma and take the Dharma as your teacher, from today onwards, and even at the end of your life, you are not allowed to take refuge in the classics of other ways. "

Yuan Kuang replied, "My disciple can hold it."

Dainari Tathagata Buddha said: "Since you take refuge in the Sangha and take the Sangha as your teacher, from today until the end of your life, you will not be able to convert to outsiders. Can you hold on?"

Yuan Kuang replied, "My disciple can hold it."

Da Ri Tathagata nodded slightly and said, "So, the poor monk will shave you."

Then I saw a flash of Buddha light in his right hand that was pressing on top of Yuan Kuang's head, and Yuan Kuang's black hair disappeared in an instant, turning into a shiny bald head. Seeing a puff of scorched smoke rising from the top of Yuan Kuang's head, nine scorched black ring scars appeared on Yuan Kuang's bald head.

The brocade robe on Yuan Kuang's body also changed into a pale yellow monk's robe at this moment, and at this moment, Dari Tathagata clasped his hands together and chanted:

"Take refuge in the Buddha, the two-legged deity, and you will not fall into hell."

"Refuge to the Dharma, be free from desires, and not fall into a hungry ghost."

"Taking refuge in the Sangha, you will be respected among all, and you will not fall into another life."

After the Great Sun Tathagata finished chanting, Yuan Kuang, who was prostrate on the ground, suddenly straightened his body. At this time, all the monks on the stone platform were shocked.

Yuan Kuang's eye sockets turned out to be shriveled, his eyelids were tightly closed, and only two tears of blood flowed from his eye sockets to his chin. cried out.

However, at this moment, Yuan Kuang's body was filled with holy and pure Buddha light, without the slightest feeling of eerieness, on the contrary, it gave people an extremely bright feeling.

I saw Yuan Kuang put his palms together and said slowly:
"Since taking refuge in the Buddha, we should wish all living beings to understand the Dao and develop the supreme mind."

"Self-refuge to the law, I wish all living beings to go deep into the scriptures and have wisdom like the sea."

"Since I take refuge in the Sangha, I wish all living beings to govern the public, and everything will be free from hindrance, and to be with the holy people in the south."

After finishing the recitation, Yuan Kuang's original practice of the Shaoshen Sect's Taoism actually completed the transformation to Buddhism in an instant, his whole aura changed, and the Buddha's light rose on his body, holy, bright and kind.

But what shocked everyone present was that Yuan Kuang was originally in a real fairyland, but after he completed the transformation from Shaoshenzong's Taoism to Buddhism, the energy released from his whole body unexpectedly rose to a higher level.

"Xuanxian! He has been promoted to the Xuanxian Realm!" Some celestial beings and monks in the Xuanxian Realm around exclaimed in surprise.

Yao Sheng, Li Hua, and Zhuang Yantong were also shocked, and they were directly promoted to a higher level?This Dharma is so terrifying? !

At this time, the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha said to Yuan Kuang: "The poor monk accepted you as the first Dharma disciple in the Great World of Changtian, bestowed the Dharma title 'Jingzong', and gave you the Mahayana Dharma "Hua Yan Bao Juan."

After speaking, the Great Sun Tathagata pointed towards Yuan Kuang, and in an instant, a beam of Buddha light flew out of the Buddha's hand and directly entered Yuan Kuang's eyebrows.

Yuan Kuang proclaimed the Buddha's name, bowed to thank him, then got up and walked behind the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha and sat down cross-legged.

Afterwards, the Great Sun Tathagata raised his head again, and smiled at the monks on the stone platform: "Is there any benefactor who has puzzled?"

Immediately, there was a brief silence on the stone platform, but soon countless people raised their hands and said: "Xiaoxian is confused!"

Although Yuan Kuang went blind, so what?If you can worship a Daluo Jinxian as your teacher and directly advance to a higher realm, so what if you are blind?Doesn't this still have divine sense?

Looking at the lively scene in front of him, Xu Hongyuan said to Li Hua: "Fellow Daoist Li Hua, don't you have doubts? You can ask now."

Lihua was shocked, and quickly glanced at the blind Yuan Kuang, then quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, I can actually think clearly myself, so I don't bother Venerable Da Ri Tathagata."

"Hahaha." Xu Hongyuan chuckled lightly, and then walked directly to Dari Tathagata who was picking the next lucky one.

"Xu Hongyuan, God of Youyiling in the Heavenly Court, pays homage to the Great Sun Tathagata." Xu Hongyuan bowed his head.

Da Ri Tathagata heard the words, sat cross-legged there with his palms folded in return, and then asked with a smile, "What orders does You Yi Lingshen have?"

Xu Hongyuan smiled and said: "How dare the little god tell the Buddha, it is the Emperor Hongqing who has the law."

Da Ri Tathagata looked serious, straightened his robes and stood up immediately, first paid respects to the sky, and then asked Xu Hongyuan, "May I ask Emperor Hongqing what is the law?"

Yao Sheng, Li Hua, and Zhuang Yantong at the back looked at each other. Even though the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha had boundless mana power, he was extremely respectful in front of the Hongqing Emperor.

"So, who should you believe in should be very clear?" Li Hua said to Zhuang Yantong via voice transmission.

Zhuang Yantong glanced at Lihua. Although he was a little speechless to what Lihua said, he did not object to the fact. , are only for the sake of courtesy and admiration.

"Emperor Hongqing's decree ordered Dari Tathagata Buddha to teach monks the Medicine King's Precious Sutra." Xu Hongyuan said to Dari Tathagata Buddha.

"The Medicine King's Treasure Sutra", this is the Taoism of the Medicine King Bodhisattva. The medicine is the body of the medicine spirit. If his medicine spirit body is to exert the greatest power, then only the medicine king Bodhisattva or Medicine Master Bodhisattva's Taoism is most suitable for medicine. I have practiced.

After finishing speaking, Xu Hongyuan called Yao Sheng to the front, and Yao Sheng looked at the Great Sun Tathagata, and asked with some fear: "I don't want to be blind too, do I?"

"Hahaha." Da Ri Tathagata laughed loudly, then glanced at Yao Sheng, and said, "Don't be afraid, you have no sin karma on you, so you don't need to be blind to atone for your sins."

When Yao Sheng heard the words, he immediately felt relieved, and Da Ri Tathagata said to Xu Hongyuan: "Please, You Yi Lingshen, please report back to Emperor Hongqing. The poor monk will obey the decree of the Dharma, and be a good student to teach the "Precious Sutra of the King of Medicine" to monk Yao Sheng."

When Xu Hongyuan heard the words, he bowed immediately and said: "Then it will be a big day for the Tathagata Buddha."

After finishing speaking, Xu Hongyuan said to Yao Sheng again: "It's better for you to be born here to practice the "Precious Sutra of the King of Medicine" with Dari Tathagata Buddha, and someone will come to pick you up after the ceremony."

Yao Sheng cupped his hands and bowed: "Xiaoxian would like to abide by the decree of God."

Xu Hongyuan nodded, then nodded and smiled at Lihua and Zhuang Yantong, and then stepped on the fairy light and flew up into the sky, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

After Xu Hongyuan left, Dainichi Tathagata asked Yaosheng to sit with 'Jingzong', and Yaosheng took his orders respectfully.

Afterwards, Dari Tathagata sat down cross-legged again, glanced at Li Hua who was standing beside him, and said immediately: "Your Taoist friend Hongjun has taught you the true meaning, so you don't need the poor monk to point you out. You can go back and learn about it. If you can understand it thoroughly , will be of great benefit to your practice."

Lihua was slightly startled when she heard this, and then she came to her senses, bowed to the Great Sun Tathagata and said, "Thank you Great Sun Tathagata for your guidance."

For some reason, Lihua and Zhuang Yantong didn't really like the way of the Great Sun Tathagata's 'crossing people', nor did they like this way of teaching Buddhism.

But looking at those monks on the stone platform behind them, who were frantically asking the Great Sun Tathagata for the Dharma and the enlightenment, the two looked at each other, and they were very puzzled.
