Journey to the West from Daqin

"I don't understand. I have saved 1 people instead of 8000. I scattered all my wealth and set up porridge sheds to save countless victims. This caused my own family to decline. Even my wife and children almost starved to death. What's wrong with stealing some biscuits for them to satisfy their hunger, why do you want to behead me?"

"Please, pull me up, it's too bitter in this sea of ​​bitterness."

Li Jue was able to change his face when facing the Golden Winged Roc, Kong Xuan, the Bone King and others.

But only when facing these ordinary people and hard-working mortals, his heart softened, and his expression was a little unbearable.

Li Jue pursed his lips, seeing a child beheaded by him, his heart was deeply touched.

The child has lived with his sister since he was a child, but unfortunately, he is in a state of ups and downs.

Even so, the sky still treats them unfairly. The child and the younger sister have walked along the way, although their own life is very miserable, but they always think about other little beggars they don't know.

He even begged for food and stole chickens for these strangers and beggars, and took them back to enjoy together.

But after the homeless beggar had enough to eat, he insulted his sister. The child was very unwilling and struggled hard, and was seriously injured in the end.

Despondent, the child took advantage of these refugees and beggars sleeping soundly, and burned them all to death in the earth temple.

Originally, he also wanted to throw himself into the sea of ​​fire to accompany his sister, but in the end he stopped because of fear, and because of this, the officers and soldiers who came rushed to him and convicted him of arson and murder.

He was supposed to be executed by dismembering his body Wan Duan Ling Chi, but because of his extenuating circumstances, he was beheaded for public display instead.

The child was also holding his head at this time, begging Li Jue to give him a hand.

"My lord, please give me a chance to be reincarnated, so that I can see with my own eyes that my sister can grow up happily and healthily."

Li Jue stretched out his hand, trying to pull the child out of the sea of ​​suffering.

But when he stretched out his hand to touch the sea of ​​bitterness, he felt as if his fingers were being burned by the fire.

"My physical body is immortal, my vajra is immortal, water and fire are indistinguishable, and ten thousand dharmas are invulnerable. How could I be burned by a mere sea of ​​bitterness?"

At this time, Li Jue was a little shocked and scared, but at the same time he also woke up.

When he stretched out his hand, wanting to grab the child and pull him out of the sea of ​​suffering, he suddenly found that the child was still in the sea of ​​suffering, and half of his body was out of the lonely boat.

Li Jue quickly returned to the lonely boat and stood firm, while the child continued to beg, begging him to save his life.

Li Jue said: "You were all killed by me, but you shouldn't be in this sea of ​​suffering, and you have already fallen into reincarnation and reincarnation."

"If I hold the Xuanyuan Sword in my hand, the karma of the person I kill will dissipate, and there will be a chance of reincarnation; when I was a mortal, I couldn't hold a steel knife and iron sword, and the person I kill will fall into hell in an instant. Reincarnation, it is even more impossible to be here."

"You are not the resentful spirits I killed, but the obsessions in my heart. In this sea of ​​suffering, the obsessions of all kinds of creatures I killed turned into karma, trying to devour me."

Li Jue seemed to have realized something.

"Although I had the yin and yang life and death scroll before, and absorbed all the karma and resentment from the beheading, but I didn't refine and dissipate it all, but turned it into this boundless sea of ​​suffering."

"Now is everything I have to experience when I want to cross the sea of ​​suffering. I have seen the life stories of countless people. Now I am in the sea of ​​suffering. What I see of you is also my life story?"

Li Jue suddenly laughed, even heartily laughing, very happy.

At this moment, he was somewhat enlightened, as if he had realized some truth.

"You are the obsession in my heart, and you are also the myriad things in my heart, every flower, every grass, every tree and every tree; all I pursue in my heart is to control all things in the world, but all things in the world will never be controlled by people, only for human use."

"The so-called momentum comes with the same power, which means to use the power of the world and all things for your own use. The most important thing to do is to integrate with the world and all things, and you should not want to control it."

"If that's the case, wouldn't it be no different from the Dao of Heaven. The so-called Dao of Heaven is to hope to be above all things in the world and to control all things in the world."

When Li Jue comprehended this level of truth, he suddenly became enlightened.

Then with a smile on his face, he jumped out and plunged into the sea of ​​suffering, while the solitary boat in the yin and yang life and death scroll he was in turned into a scroll again and floated above his head.

When Li Jue was in the sea of ​​suffering, countless resentful spirits, obsessions and karma rushed towards him one after another, trying to tear him apart.

Including the children, benefactors, and doctors who begged him for help just now.

Chapter 820 Overcoming the sea of ​​bitterness and crossing the other shore

Facing the boundless sea of ​​suffering and heavy karma.

Li Jue smiled frankly, and was in it, swimming in the sea of ​​suffering with his own strength.

Boundless karma turned into obsessive demons, who would devour Li Jue, but Li Jue was determined and indestructible at this time.

Even if these obsessive demons climbed onto his body like monsters one after another, they wanted to carry his body through the sea of ​​suffering.

He also let these obsessive demons devour his body, but his gaze was firmer than ever, and he swam forward unswervingly.

His body is indestructible; his will is indestructible.

But in the sea of ​​suffering, his body was covered with smoke, because his physical body was burned by karmic fire, and everything about him was burned in this sea of ​​suffering.

As a result, Li Jue's body began to loosen a little, and then a piece of his shoulder was taken away by the golden-winged roc; one of his ears was torn off by a six-tusked white elephant; half of his face was eaten clean by a green-haired lion; One eyeball was gouged out by Kong Xuan.

His physical body seemed to be melted into this sea of ​​suffering, his body was about to sink, everything about him seemed to be gnawed clean, only a bone but still unswervingly swam to the other shore.

However, as far as the eye can see, it is still far away, where can we see the so-called other shore.

But Li Jue was devoured to the bone, but he remained steadfast like a perpetual motion machine.

I don't know how long it took, but the obsessive karma on the body of this sentence has dissipated.

It may be that those obsessive karma and inner demons who were beheaded by him felt that he was no longer devoured by flesh and blood, so they just gave up.

And this white bone swims in the sea of ​​bitterness, with the ups and downs of the waves, sometimes sinks into the sea, sometimes emerges, the only constant is to move forward unswervingly.

Finally, in this sea of ​​bitterness, the bones of this white bone were turned golden by the sea of ​​bitterness.

The golden skull is in the sea of ​​suffering, unwavering, like a perpetual motion machine.

The demons of karma had already dissipated, and the only thing accompanying her was the Yin-Yang scroll of life and death above her head.

I don't know how long it took.

There is a bulge above the sea level of the Bitter Sea, but this golden skeleton keeps swimming, and one can see that bulge gradually becoming majestic and thick.

But the golden skull remained unmoved, even without emotional fluctuations.

Finally, the golden skull approached the other shore, but the cliff on the other shore was too high, and the sea level was too low, making it impossible to climb up.

The golden skull had no intention of taking a detour, but inserted its fingers into the cliff, and then climbed all the way up.

It's just that this cliff is like an Optimus Prime reaching the sky, and the golden skull is climbing on the cliff, just like an ant climbing Mount Tai.

Although it is said that he has passed through the sea of ​​suffering and reached the other shore, he still cannot reach the sky.

However, the Golden Skull was determined and unswerving, climbing all the way, and I don't know how long it took.

at last.

The golden skull boarded the other shore and reached the top of the cliff.

It's just that on the other side, what you see is a vast and desolate land that stretches as far as the eye can see.

There is no hope at all.

The golden skull continued to walk, and he walked all the way in the direction he was determined in his heart.

It seems that the road traveled is longer than the distance traveled in the sea of ​​bitterness, but regardless of wind, frost, cold, heat, thunderstorm and lightning, the golden skull is always steadfast.

I don't know how long it took, but the end of the other side has been reached, but looking forward, it is the sea of ​​suffering at the other end, and he is at the top of the cliff.

In the sea of ​​bitterness is the other shore, but the other shore is surrounded by the sea of ​​bitterness.

And there is nothing at the top of the other shore.

The golden skeleton only stopped for a moment, and then jumped into the sea of ​​suffering in front of it.

But when he jumped down, everything changed again.

The yin and yang scroll of life and death above the head followed unswervingly, and the golden skull began to condense flesh and blood.

The flesh and blood on the golden skull gradually condensed like ants, but when it was about to fall into the sea of ​​suffering, the flesh and blood had completely condensed, turning into a Li Jue who had no hair, no eyebrows, and no hair on his body.

Re-entering the sea of ​​suffering, but it is not the sea of ​​suffering.

In reality, Li Jue opened his eyes. He was still in the sea of ​​stars, and he was still facing the leader of Tongtian.

But at this time Li Jue seemed to be different from before. He was not hairless all over his body, but his head was full of black hair that had turned into white hair.

Seeing Li Jue open his eyes, Master Tongtian was shocked and relieved at the same time.

But he doesn't know if Li Jue is awake at this time, but you can feel that his eyes are not as cloudy as before.

Therefore, he could only watch quietly, waiting for Li Jue to take the initiative to respond.

Li Jue stretched out his hand to take a look at his hair, and after a moment of thought, his white hair turned into black hair again.

"Dare to ask senior, how long have I been in this sinking?"

Master Tongtian heard Li Jue speak, but felt that Li Jue seemed to have become a little unfathomable, unable to capture Li Jue's inner thoughts at this time.

After pondering for a moment, he said, "It's more than three years."

Li Jue nodded. He felt that it had been at least a thousand years to swim in the sea of ​​suffering, and it had been a thousand years to walk in the other shore.

But I didn't expect that three years had passed in reality.

He suddenly laughed, "Senior said before that the way of heaven should be above everything in the world."

Master Tongtian nodded, and said as a matter of course, "There is the way of heaven first, and then all things. Naturally, the way of heaven is above all things."

"In the past three years of your sinking, I think you have already understood this level of truth. If so, your understanding of the world and myriad things will surely go to a higher level."

Li Jue smiled slightly, exuding breath from his body.

Master Tongtian was dumbfounded.

"How is it possible, how is it possible for you, that the aura of everything in the world has not changed in the past three years?"

He was really shocked, because based on his understanding of Li Jue, he shouldn't have gotten nothing.

"With your talent and your comprehension, you shouldn't get nothing in my way of heaven. How could it be possible that your aura hasn't increased at all in three years?"

Master Tongtian was shocked. If it wasn't for the fact that the aura emanating from this person in front of him was exactly the same as the previous Li Jue, he would have thought it was a fake.

Li Jue smiled and said, "It's not surprising, maybe it's because I didn't agree with what Senior said."

Master Tongtian frowned, "What do you disagree with me?"

He really couldn't figure it out. Entering the Dao of Heaven, living in the sea of ​​stars, he said so many things, what exactly did Li Jue disagree with?

Li Jue said: "I don't think what the senior said is that the way of heaven comes first and all things are behind; I don't even agree with what the senior said that the way of heaven is above everything."
