Start with the gods

Chapter 281
There are many Buddhist monks in Lanke Temple. When these monks came back to their senses, they immediately clearly felt that the source of the vision was the cave that no one dared to disturb easily in the past, but now they can't care about these rules in this situation. They rushed along the mountain road towards the cave behind the feet of the Buddha.

The abbot of Lanke Temple was the most impatient. He directly used his cultivation to rush on his way. He first came to the cave and saw Guan Hai sitting in a daze under the vine corridor. He immediately asked anxiously: "Guan Hai, but my uncle is broke." Already?"

Guan Hai forcibly stabilized his still shocked mind, slowly shook his head, turned his eyes to look at him and said, "I don't know what the teacher's situation is now, but judging by the momentum, maybe it should be a breakthrough in cultivation at this moment."

The abbot's old body kept trembling slightly, and he said in a trembling voice: "It can't be wrong, it can't be wrong, this kind of vision will definitely only appear when a practitioner breaks through the threshold above the five realms, uncle, he It must be breaking the border."

In the minds of many practitioners in the world, great practitioners above the five realms have always been sacred existences with extremely lofty status. If a power can have such a strong person sitting in command, it will immediately become very detached. No one dares to provoke at will.

Just like the four unknowable places, the reason why they have always been called the Big Dipper of Mount Tai is because they all have masters who have broken the five realms hiding in them, and ordinary forces are not even qualified to challenge them.

Since the establishment of Lanke Temple for countless years, except for the Buddha who stayed here, no great practitioners above the Five Realms have practiced in the temple. And today, once Master Qishan succeeds in breaking through, then their Lanke Temple will definitely achieve great success. Such a huge reputation, how could he not be excited about it as the abbot.

For a long time, in the eyes of the world, Lanke Temple has been the mountain gate of the unknown place Xuankong Temple to the outside world. The relationship between the two is like the Xiling Temple and Zhishou Temple, with one inside and one outside dominating the entire Buddhism.

However, in fact, the relationship between the two of them is not as good as the outside world imagined, and there is a lot of filth between them.

Even if everyone is a member of the Buddhist sect, and the heart of power and skill is relatively weak, no one is willing to be the puppet of the other party all the time. If there is a chance, the monks of Lanke Temple also hope that their place can become another holy place of Buddhism, no less than Xuankong Temple Buddhist holy land.

But at this moment, this kind of opportunity seems to have really come. It seems that Lanke Temple is about to have a super expert who has broken the five realms to sit in the town, so the monks in the temple, especially those monks with advanced cultivation, are very excited.

After a while, the originally small cave was full of monks from Lanke Temple, but the place remained quiet without any confusion or noise.

These monks, headed by the abbot and Guan Hai, all crossed their knees on the ground in a meditation state, looking orderly, all of them had calm faces, and exuded an extremely compassionate atmosphere.

As these voices of the Buddha kept ringing in the depths of their minds, everyone seemed to have a new understanding of Buddhism and obtained unimaginable benefits, and even a few of them showed signs of breaking through.

The Buddhist practice method in this world is mainly based on enlightenment, which is much more abstract than the Taoist practice method. There is no clear division of realms. The practice depends entirely on personal fate. When the opportunity comes, it will advance by leaps and bounds, and you can instantly change from an ordinary person to a master of practice , but more are unable to even achieve basic enlightenment.

For example, Master Huang Yang, the first Buddhist cultivator in the Tang Dynasty, was unable to cross the threshold of practice for many years. He was always just an ordinary person who was proficient in Buddhism. Within a short period of time, he became one of the top practitioners in the world.

This shows how important the seemingly ethereal word opportunity is to Buddhist practice. It can only be encountered but not sought.

Today’s Buddhist voice coming from Master Qishan’s room is just a rare opportunity. In just a short moment, there are countless diligent disciples around Washan who have realized the principles of Buddhism and embarked on the road of practice. There are also quite a few ordinary people at the foot of the mountain who have entered this threshold.

All the monks of Lanke Temple surrounded the inside and outside of the cave, sitting upright with their eyes closed, meditating and comprehending the sound of the Buddha like the sound of nature. The pure compassion of Buddhism and Taoism almost converged into an ocean, emitting a bright but not dazzling light. Go, the whole Washan Mountain is shining like a miracle.

……

I don't know how long it took, the golden light faded away, the Buddha's voice disappeared, and the monks woke up from the state of meditation one after another, and then looked at the door of the cave opened slowly with extremely expectant eyes.

"This is our elder?"

But with just one glance, all the monks in Lanke Temple showed astonishment expressions, because Master Qishan who appeared in front of them was no longer the stooped old man he used to be, but suddenly seemed to be decades younger and had returned to his middle age. The appearance of a young man.

He became younger, but Master Qishan's expression and temperament became more and more peaceful. He looked benevolent and friendly, which made people feel close to him from the bottom of their hearts.

The abbot of Lanke Temple was the first to come back to his senses. Looking at Master Qishan whose age and temperament were slightly out of sync, he quickly stepped forward to his side and asked tentatively, "Uncle Master, your cultivation level..."

Master Qishan nodded slowly, and said with a sigh: "At first, I thought that there would be no further hope in this life, but I didn't expect that there will be a turning point when I am old. The cause and effect in this world is really puzzling."

After getting the definite answer, all the monks smiled with joy and bowed down to congratulate. At this moment, the image of Master Qishan, who was already eminently prestigious, in the minds of the monks of Lanke Temple was elevated again, and he had become a monk. A true spiritual leader.

However, Master Qishan's next words surprised everyone, he raised his eyes to look at the abbot of Lanke Temple, and said with a very serious expression: "I am going to leave the temple."

The faces of all the monks changed drastically immediately, the abbot was silent for a moment, and asked: "Uncle Master is going to Xuankong Temple?"

"The reason why I left Xuankong back then was because I didn't like the atmosphere there. I might never go back in this lifetime."

Master Qishan shook his head slightly, sighed, and said: "For thousands of years since the Buddha's nirvana, our Buddhist sect has been pursuing the concept of staying away from the world under the leadership of the Xuankong Temple. The senior monks basically practiced in seclusion and never Easily set foot in the world of mortals."

"I didn't like this way of life before, but after all, it's been a long-standing rule. I can't say much. In addition, I was sick and sick, and I couldn't make any changes."

"But after this time, I finally realized that I did wrong in the past. Buddhism is about saving the world. If I just hide in a monastery and practice hard alone, and don't hear things outside the window, how can I become a true Buddha?"

After hearing Master Qishan's words, all the monks in Lanke Temple looked at each other, the abbot took a deep breath and asked, "Then Master, are you planning to..."

Master Qishan raised his eyebrows, looked at the monks, and said calmly: "I plan to go down the mountain from now on to travel around the world, promote the true Dharma of Buddhism, and do my best for the people of the world."

As he said that, he looked up at the extremely tall and huge Buddha statue on the top of Washan Mountain, and said calmly: "The Buddha once said that the Buddha is among all living beings, and if you want to truly understand the Buddhist principles, you must go to this world of mortals for a while. "
