Chapter 996 – Dual Cultivation of Buddha Dao
In fact, the area occupied by the Violet Bamboo Forest wasn’t actually that big. It was only about twenty acres of land. The bamboo here did not look green and lush, but a faint purple color. Every bamboo was very straight, the shortest was at least 30 meters tall. After entering the bamboo forest, he saw a few elegant bamboo buildings. In the empty space between the bamboo houses, there were all kinds of flowers and herbs. The fragrance was extremely fragrant.
At this point in time, An Zheng had also calmed down. He knew that the only thing he could do now was to grab the jade bottle, and take the jade water to save Du Shoushou and his. The effect of that pellet of Purple-Rank and divine pellet wasn’t just halving, it could at most extend their lives by twelve hours. In these twenty-four hours, he had to open the barrier and defeat the Holy Jade Bottle.
Lady Xiuxi said that this jade bottle had sealed itself away because of the departure of the Venerable One. It sealed the alchemy room, preventing anyone from entering. They had tried it before, but because they did not know the secrets of the Buddhist Sect, they had no clue.
The Buddhist Cultivation Method and Dao Sect originated from the same origin, but after tens of thousands of years of development and evolution, they were completely different.
“Over there.”
Lady Xiuxi led the way and pointed to the largest bamboo building. “That is the place where the Venerable One once lived. The bamboo building is a separate space, and it has been sealed by the Pure Jade Bottle. We went in while the Venerable One was there, and then Ke Yunji tried to open it but failed, but he could not enter the alchemy room. It is just that I can vaguely sense the enormous grievance and berserk aura coming from the Pure Jade Bottle every full night of the moon. ”
An Zheng asked: “The Holy Jade Bottle is the most precious treasure of the Buddhist Sect. For so many years, has no one from the Buddhist Sect come to look for it?”
“I’m not sure. Maybe it’s because no one can find the Purple Bamboo Forest.”
Lady Xiuxi said, “I guess he must have come here to look for it. It’s just that we don’t know why he didn’t bring the jade bottle back when he left. Back then, the Buddhist Sect was much more powerful than it is now, and the Buddha was even stronger than the Azure Lotus Immortal Emperor. Back then, the Immortal Emperor said that Buddha’s cultivation was at the pinnacle, but it was not on par with the world. If they really were to fight, he would definitely not be a match for the Buddha. The Immortal Emperor also said that the Buddha, Purple Ivy, was the strongest cultivator in this world. If the Buddha and Purple Ivy were to fight, it would be difficult to determine who would win and who would lose. ”
“The Venerable One’s cultivation is only second to the Buddha. The Immortal Emperor said that her strength should be about the same as the Immortal Emperor. It was said that the ancient Green Lantern Buddha who founded the Buddhist Sect’s legacy was once a disciple of the Dao Sect. Because he had studied Bodhi and comprehended the Dao, he had stayed in the Western Regions and founded the Buddhist Sect for tens of thousands of years. Back then, many of the secret scriptures of the Azure Lantern Buddha were left in the Buddhist Sect. However, the future disciples of the Buddhist Sect were unable to understand them. Later on, the Buddha decided to send the Eminent Holiness to the immortal palace to seek dao. ”
“The reason why she is a Venerable One is because she was once a Dao Sect disciple. “When I left the Central Plains, my cultivation was already shocking. Because I revered the ancient Green Lantern Buddha, I travelled westward and later became the buddhist disciple of the buddhist faith. My status in the buddhist faith was extraordinary.”
“Have you not heard of the name of the Venerable One?”
In order to calm An Zheng down, Lady Xiu Xi kept talking to An Zheng.
An Zheng shook his head: “I have some understanding of the Buddhist Sect, and have met several experts from the Buddhist Sect. Currently, out of the four great disciples of the Buddha, not a single one was called Venerable One. However, that person was someone from more than ten thousand years ago. Presumably, he had already disappeared. Or, even if they did exist, they might remain hidden. The current Buddha should be her junior. ”
“Mm …” We’re here. ”
Lady Xiuxi stopped and pointed at the bamboo tower. “There are nine steps to climb this bamboo tower. There are all sorts of tests and they are all extremely fierce. “Amongst us, our cultivation is the strongest. Back then, she was the one who led us up the nine steps but was unable to open the door to the bamboo house.”
An Zheng took a deep breath: “Follow behind me.”
But Yun Che held Ling Tian Mirror in both hands and followed behind An Zheng as he recounted the changes on the nine stages. An Zheng followed Ke Yun’s explanation and broke all the restrictions in the nine realms one by one. The first step was the Snow Song Realm. As soon as he stepped on it, he felt as though he had fallen into a cave of ice. The second step was the Raging Inferno Realm and An Zheng still used the Orthodox Pure Yang to break through it. The third step was the mechanism realm, so after he stepped on it, he felt that his surroundings immediately changed. Under the pressure of the stone wall, he was able to squeezerson into meat paste. The fourth step was the Violent Wind Realm, the fifth step was the Flood Realm, the sixth step was the Sharp Blades Realm, the seventh step was the Space Realm, the eighth step was the Golden Sharp World and the ninth was the World of Thunder.
Although it was nothing to An Zheng, but the majority of cultivators in Inside the Immortal Palace searching for treasures could not open it. Upon reaching the entrance, An Zheng saw that there were couplets pasted on both sides of the bamboo door. The first half was about a blessed spot, and the second half was about a fellow Buddhist cultivator asking about purple bamboo.
Together on the path of Buddhism.
An Zheng couldn’t help but sigh in his heart, this Venerable One was truly bold and magnanimous.
He reached out his hand to push open the door, but the seemingly weak bamboo door was incomparably sturdy. The instant An Zheng’s hands touched the bamboo door, a swastika character lit up on the two bamboo doors. An Zheng’s hands immediately released a burst of thunder energy, which shook An Zheng until he felt numb.
“Power of the lightning pool.”
An Zheng could not help but laugh.
This was the true power of the lightning pool in the Green Bamboo Forest in Great Thunder Lake Temple. There was a Green Bamboo Forest in the Great Thunder Lake Temple and a Purple Bamboo Forest in this place. To the Yun brothers, breaking through this seal was extremely difficult, but their powers could not withstand the attacks of the Power of Essence Thunder. On the other hand, An Zheng was different. To An Zheng, the Power of Essence Thunder was not any kind of restriction, but a great supplement. His hands were pressed against the bamboo door, and his arms were wrapped in purple lightning.
In just a few minutes, the Power of Essence Thunder inside the bamboo door was completely absorbed by An Zheng. With a creak, the bamboo door opened.
“You can go in. We’ll guard here.”
She then sealed Ling Tian Mirror on the bamboo door. “Ling Tian Mirror is very strong, and this bamboo house has restrictions left behind by the Venerable One, we can persevere foeriod of time, you guys should hurry up and do it.”
An Zheng and Lady Xiu Xi looked at each other and nodded at the same time. After placing Du Shoushou and Chen Shaobai in the bamboo building, the two of them quickly walked into the bamboo building. Pushing open a small door, one could see the residence of the Venerable One. The furnishings in the room were very simple. There was a bamboo bed and a thin blanket. It looked very clean and tidy, as if there were people living here yesterday. On the left wall, there was a letter: Spring and Autumn. The words on the right wall were for morality.
Next to the bamboo bed was a small square table with ink and paper on it. There waiece of paper with a few words written on it. It was clear that it wasn’t finished, and the last word only contained two strokes. It was clear how urgent it was when the Venerable One left.
“Where is the entrance to the alchemy lab?”
An Zheng looked around, but he did not see a door or any other entrance.
“Over there.”
Lady Xiuxi pointed at the wall to the north, “I came in while Venerable Man Guan was still here. She said that I have some understanding towards the Dao of alchemy, so she let me follow her into the alchemy room. “On the wall, there are one hundred and eight swastika characters. Only when you place your hand against the wall and inject the Buddhist Cultivation Power, and all one hundred and eight swastika characters are lit up, will you open the Pill Refining Room’s passageway.”
She glanced at An Zheng with difficulty: “This is precisely the hardest part, we all do not know the Buddhist Sect’s cultivation methods.”
“Then I’ll try my best.”
An Zheng stretched out both of his hands, gathered the Power of Essence Thunder in his palms and pressed it against the wall. With a weng sound, his brain seemed to have been struck by a huge force, and An Zheng instantly felt his vision go black, followed by his body flying backwards. He tried to hold him, but was knocked to the ground. An Zheng spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face instantly turned pale white.
“I had originally thought that it would be another Power of Essence Thunder.”
An Zheng frowned: “It’s only been twelve hours, what should I do?”
He helped her up and paced up and down the room.
“Although I went to the Great Thunder Lake Temple and obtained the Power of Essence Thunder, it is not a buddhist art.”
“Let me do it.”
Just then, someone spoke out from the outer room. When An Zheng heard the voice, his expression immediately changed. He suddenly turned his head and saw that beautiful woman standing in the outer room. She was so beautiful that she could topple cities and topple nations. Standing there, she was the most beautiful scenery in the world.
“You …”
An Zheng’s throat felt a little dry, and he did not know what to say for a moment.
“I didn’t leave.”
Xu Meidai slowly walked into the room, looked around, and then clasped her hands together: “Sir, disciple Xu Meidai has disturbed you.”
After saluting, she stood up straight, and after she glanced at An Zheng, her attention was completely focused on the northern wall. “Every step is something that Tan Shanse had calculated, so he naturally thought that for my safety, he would definitely let me go first. So he must have intercepted me on the way, or killed me, or captured me. If you kill me, you will only have one Purple-Rank pellet. Do you want to save your brother or me? If you capture me and threaten you, will you become his accomplice? ”
As she spoke, she walked to the wall and looked at the 108 swastika characters. “Perhaps I’m the only one in this world that can open it.”
Maybe they were all pretty girls, so when Lady Scholar saw Xu Meidai, she was somewhat hostile. She didn’t know why Yun Che and the rest would let this person enter, especially when she looked at An Zheng’s attitude. The two of them really had an unspeakable past. Although she knew it was childish and baffling, she still felt a faint uncomfortable feeling in her heart. She didn’t want to hear Xu Meidai use her old friend like that … No, it was an old acquaintance’s tone of voice speaking to An Zheng.
“Arrogant.”
Lady Shushi lowered her voice and said two words.
“Arrogant?”
Xu Meidai smiled slightly: “I cultivate the way of the cultivation, Cultivation of Buddha, is the same as the cultivation path of the Venerable One. The restrictions on this wall were made from the secret techniques of the two families of Buddha. Therefore, even if the Buddha came in person, he might not be able to open it up, because the Buddha had never cultivated a Dao Sect cultivation technique. In this world, I am the only one who has cultivated together in the path of Buddhism. ”
She slowly walked over and placed both her hands on the wall. The golden light on her hands was bright and curved.
Instantly, the first swastika character lit up, then it swiftly lit up likow of lights had been switched on, and in just a dozen seconds, all 108 swastika characters were lit up. An Zheng’s eyes lit up, and he became excited.
“Who is it?!”
However, after the swastika symbol was completely lit up, the secret door didn’t open, and a fierce voice sounded from the wall.
“Who is it that is disturbing my peace?!” Now scram. I won’t say it a second time, or else I’ll all die here. ”
That voice was old, hoarse, and filled with killing intent.
“Even if it is a sacred artifact of the Buddhist sect, it is still just an artifact.”
Xu Meidai pressed both hands on the wall, “Open!”
The Taiji diagram in her left hand and the swastika symbol on her right hand caused the wall to shake violently.
“You are courting death.”
The sound appeared again, and the walls creaked open, followed by a secret door. The moment the door opened, the three of them were stunned for a moment. It was as if a monstrous wave of blood rushed out from inside and engulfed the three of them at the same time.
