Chapter 33: Comparable to Gods and Buddhas
Inside the former site of Jingyan Temple.
There are two buildings here, one new and one old.
In the wide patio in the middle, a huge tripod is placed on a stone base.
There are potted flowers all around, which are fragrant and pure.
The four large characters "Jinglian Jingshe" are cast on the body of this incense and candle tripod.
Not far away is the dormitory, which is the resting place for the women of the monastery.
The two women Xu Xiaoli had met before entered the house cautiously.
There are three beds inside.
There was a steady breathing sound coming from the innermost bed, indicating someone was sleeping.
If they were ordinary sisters, they would definitely turn on the lights.
Unfortunately, the person sleeping inside is a woman who came from out of town to attend the Dharma Assembly tomorrow.
During the courtesy, the two women still did not turn on the lights.
With the help of the moonlight outside, they groped their way to the window, then undressed and prepared to go to sleep.
However, unexpectedly, their actions were very gentle, but the female Buddhist was still suddenly awakened.
"ah!"
The female resident sat up suddenly and uttered a scream, as if she had been awakened from a nightmare.
The slightly plump woman quickly turned on the light and asked with concern, "Master Mei, are you okay?"
Mr. Mei, with disheveled hair, had beads of sweat on his forehead.
She pointed in the direction of the main hall with some fear, "I...I dreamed that there were...divine beings breaking into the Buddhist temple."
Godly man?
Break into the Buddhist temple?
As female practitioners, the two women naturally believed in gods and Buddhas. When they suddenly heard Mr. Mei say this, they immediately started asking.
"What's going on?"
"Mr. Mei, please tell me in detail."
Mr. Mei's eyes were filled with fear. He swallowed his saliva and said with lingering fear: "Just now I dreamed that a young man broke into the temple, and then an Asura blocked his way. However, the young man summoned many five-clawed golden dragons. In the end, the Asura was defeated by him, and he walked towards the Buddha Hall."
Slightly plump women: "..."
Another slender woman: "..."
It is true that they both believe in gods and Buddhas.
But what Mr. Mei said is too mysterious.
What is this battle between the golden dragon and Asura? Are you filming a science fiction movie in your dream?
The two of them comforted Mr. Mei.
It simply means that he is under great mental pressure and has wild dreams at night.
Mr. Mei also felt that he was dreaming.
But she felt it was so real that she lost her sleepiness for a moment.
Afterwards, she said something to the two women, put on her clothes and went out to relax.
It was nothing at first.
However, when she reached the door, she found an Asura statue cracked.
Mr. Mei's pupils contracted and he was shocked. Was everything he dreamed about real?
If this is true, who is that young god-man?
He is so powerful!
…
Fang Yi strolled in the divine realm.
As soon as I thought about it, I arrived at the foot of the mountain.
Then he got a big fright.
Because there was actually an Asura standing here who was exactly the same as the one he had fought with, but his body was shrunk to the height of an ordinary adult male.
Fang Yi was almost scared and ran away.
After all, the power that Asura just displayed was really terrifying.
Even if he summoned a golden dragon in his prime, he couldn't destroy the opponent.
Not to mention that I am now low on health.
However, this Asura seemed to have died silently.
Fang Yi reached out and touched it curiously.
In an instant, Asura disappeared.
"It turned out to be an illusion."
He couldn't help but think of the golden boy and jade girl beside the Wong Tai Sin in the small temple in the village, but they did not separate as soon as they were touched.
Fang Yi was preparing to enter the Buddhist kingdom.
As a result, he was surprised to see several strange-looking statues standing around the foot of the mountain.
The closest to Asura is a golden-winged Garuda with a protruding wish-fulfilling jewel on its head. Its image is a bit like Garuda, one of the eight celestial dragons in Buddhism.
Further away is an adult male with a horn on his head, who looks a bit like Kinnara, the god of song, who is also one of the Eight Heavenly Dragons.
Next to Kinnara is Mahoraka, the giant python god with a human body and a snake head.
In the distance there is a Gandharva with an octagonal crown on his head and a naked body as big as a bull king, and a Yaksha King with a crown on his head, his upper body exposed, and a vajra in his hand, in a wrathful manner.
"Hmm? The Eight Heavenly Dragons?"
Fang Yi was stunned for a moment.
I see six here. Where are the other two?
He looked toward the lake in the distance.
I found that there was indeed a huge Naga with a human head and a snake body floating in the air.
These are the dragons among the eight heavenly dragons.
I didn’t see where the heavenly beings were.
Fang Yi didn't think much about it.
As soon as the thought came, he arrived at the Buddha’s kingdom in heaven.
The next moment, a shocking scene unfolded.
This huge and boundless Buddhist kingdom is home to Brahma, Indra, the Four Heavenly Kings and other celestial beings!
The eight heavenly dragons have gathered!
Fang Yi was shocked.
If I’m not mistaken, these eight celestial dragons are the guardian gods of the divine realm.
Maybe because the incense has been lost, the other guardian gods no longer have the power to activate them.
So just now only Asura and myself fought?
"Whose divine domain is this, that it needs eight celestial dragons to guard it?"
He had a premonition that the master of this divine domain was no ordinary person.
The Buddhist kingdom is filled with pagodas and temples.
Fang Yi didn't care about these.
Go straight to the main hall in the middle.
In the middle of the hall, there is a red painted plaque with the words "Pure Land of Bliss" written on it.
hiss!
Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss?
Isn’t this where Amitabha Buddha resides?
Fang Yi was a little confused.
Based on the myths and legends he learned.
Amitabha Buddha has no temple in the human world.
How come the divine realm that appeared here turned out to be the Pure Land of Bliss?
I can't figure it out.
He didn't think about it anymore.
Walked into the hall.
There is a couplet on the pillars of the Buddhist temple:
Comprehending the profound and wonderful Dharma, all sentient beings in the Saha world will enter the Vairocana Ocean of Nature together;
By practicing the excellent cause of reciting the Buddha's name, all sentient beings of the three roots will cross to the other shore of the Pure Land.
There are three plaques in the middle above the couplet.
The plaque in the middle reads "Save all living beings".
The two plaques on the left and right are inscribed with "Million Virtues and Majesty" and "The Only Way" respectively.
There is nothing else in the main hall except a niche enshrining three Buddhas.
In front of the Buddha statue, there is a brocade curtain embroidered with four large characters "Buddha's Light Shines Everywhere".
Under the shade of the long sail canopy and glazed lights.
Fang Yi finally saw clearly who these three Buddha statues with smiling faces and peaceful expressions were!
They are actually the Three Holy Saints of the West!
Who are the Three Holy Ones of the West?
The Three Holy Ones of the West are also known as the Three Amitabhas.
In the middle is Amitabha Buddha, with Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva standing on the left side of the Buddha and Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva standing on the right side of the Buddha.
After figuring out whose divine domain this was, Fang Yi became even more confused.
"The Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva's temple is in Langshan, the Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva's temple is in Putuo Mountain in Zhoushan Islands, and Amitabha Buddha has no temple in the human world. Why are the Three Holy Ones of the West here?"
Then he recalled the contents of the Buddhist scriptures.
Although Amitabha Buddha has no temple in the human world, he has forty-eight Dharma forms.
What you see before your eyes is the image of the "Buddha standing in the air".
The seventh contemplation of the "Avatamsaka Sutra" records: Amitabha Buddha resides in the sky, with Avalokitesvara and Mahasthamaprapta, the two great bodhisattvas, standing on his left and right. Their light is so bright that it cannot be seen clearly. For those who chant the Buddha's name, Amitabha Buddha always resides on their head.
If that is the case, then this is not the dojo of Amitabha Buddha, nor is it the dojo of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva and Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva.
It is just the realm of the Amitabha Buddha.
No wonder the eight heavenly dragons are guarding it.
It turned out to be the divine realm of Amitabha Buddha.
Fang Yi seemed to be thinking about something.
Based on his previous experience in the small temple in the village, he reached out and touched the statue of Amitabha Buddha.
The next moment, the Buddhist kingdom before his eyes shattered, leaving only endless nothingness.
And three strangely shaped "nets" filled with countless particles.
These "nets", like the "nets" of the village statues, extend countless "tentacles" to touch the void, as if connecting the universe.
The most important thing is that every particle of light on it is dazzling.
It seems to be filled with endless energy.
Seeing this, Fang Yi was very excited!
"Do all three Buddha statues have magical powers?"
I originally thought that I would be satisfied just by acquiring a new magical power.
I never expected that there were three magical powers here!
Fang Yi was so happy that he nearly fainted. He couldn't wait to immerse his soul into one of the "nets" and see what kind of magical power it was.
What surprised him was that he couldn't even immerse himself in it!
That's not right!
You can enter the energy field of the village statue.
Fang Yi was puzzled.
Suddenly, he thought of something.
At that time, I was immersed in the energy field of the village statue because the golden elixir was embedded in the energy field.
Does it require the golden elixir to be embedded?
Fang Yi became hesitant.
After a fierce battle with Asura just now, the energy of the golden elixir has been exhausted.
If embedded in an energy field, who knows what accidents might happen?
"Forget it, I'll use the statue model to scan the structure formed by these three energy fields first, and then I'll reconstruct it after I recover my strength. Well, when the energy of the golden elixir is restored, maybe I can come here again and try to achieve the unity of heaven and man with the energy fields of these three Buddha statues."
Fang Yi immersed his mind into the statue model and observed the energy field particle composition of the three Buddha statues.
The energy fields of these three Buddha statues are extremely complex.
For example, the biological energy field of Bodhisattva Mahasthamaprapta is composed of more than 540 billion particles of three types.
The number of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva's is almost 500 billion.
Only the energy field of Amitabha Buddha is composed of extremely numerous particles, reaching hundreds of trillions.
Fortunately, these particles are static.
He was able to scan and copy the three energy field structures before exhausting the remaining energy in the biological energy field.
"Huh, let's return our thoughts to our bodies first."
The brutal battle with Asura caused Fang Yi to suffer serious "injuries" to his soul.
It needs to be nourished and repaired with the power of the golden elixir.
But now the energy of the golden elixir has been exhausted, and he has no way to repair it in time.
Thoughts retreated back into the body like the tide.
…
Outside, in the car.
Xu Xiaoli kept staring at Fang Yi's face.
The quick glimpse she got earlier of Fang Yi and Asura fighting left her with a shocking impression.
She naturally wanted to know the outcome of the battle, so she kept staring at Fang Yi.
Just as she was staring in fascination.
Suddenly, Fang Yi slowly opened his eyes.
Xu Xiaoli was overjoyed and quickly asked in an eager tone, "Master, did you win?"
It was fine before I returned to my physical body.
However, at this moment, Fang Yi, who had returned to his body, only felt a splitting headache.
He knew that the intense pain was caused by trauma to his soul.
The body is also extremely weak.
That's because the golden elixir has exhausted its energy and is constantly drawing energy from the physical body.
I’m tired. I’m really tired.
And the body seems to be hollowed out.
He no longer had the strength to speak, he just tried his best to utter a weak "hmm".
Although the situation is very bad.
But Fang Yi's heart was burning with passion.
I made a lot of money this time!
He actually obtained three magical powers!
It’s a pity that we still don’t know the specific functions of these three magical powers.
You will have to wait until you recover and build a model to find out.
Fang Yi was very satisfied with tonight's harvest.
It was just the weakness he felt in his body that made him close his eyes again.
He closed his eyes.
But after getting the accurate answer, Xu Xiaoli was trembling slightly with excitement.
Awesome!
Mr. Fang is so awesome!
Even the Asura who covered the sky and the sun could be defeated easily!
At this moment, she finally understood how powerful Fang Yi was.
It is definitely an existence comparable to gods and Buddhas.
Xu Xiaoli was determined to stick to Fang Yi even if she had to work like a slave.
Maybe you’ll have a chance to gain immortality by following such a divine being!
