He insisted on practicing many of the most advanced magical skills and insisted on thinking that he was a protagonist like Long Aotian.
After truly embarking on this path, Zhang Ming discovered that as a character like Long Aotian, he was born with nine lives, and even nine lives were not enough.
He died many times while practicing the Dragon-Tiger Fist Sutra. After he barely balanced the yin and yang of the dragon and the tiger, he encountered many problems and difficulties after the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra and the Tai Shang Sansheng Jieyuan Miao Sutra.
While practicing the Sutra of the Past Vows of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, I encountered several major hurdles. For a normal person, several lives would not be enough to walk this path, and one would never be able to reach the end.
If it weren't for the Book of Life and Death, if it weren't for so many future brothers who set him up step by step, he would have died long ago.
And now he is faced with a choice again. He has not yet become a master, and many of his methods are still in the early stages.
If Zhang Mingtu is willing to abandon the other several techniques and practice the Bodhisattva Sutra alone, and then go to the area where Donglin Temple is located, and say that he has inherited Jianzhen's legacy and is a Buddhist of this generation.
With Zhang Mingtu's understanding of Buddhism accumulated at the master level and his understanding of the Sutra of the Past Vows of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, he is very likely to become a Buddhist disciple who is vigorously cultivated by Donglin Temple.
With the help of Donglin Temple's capabilities, one can become a Grandmaster in a very short period of time. Zhang Mingtu is even confident that he can reach the peak of Grandmaster within ten years and try to break through to the Martial Saint level.
If it were before, this path was a pretty good path, and Zhang Mingtu would really be tempted, but now he is a little hesitant.
The Martial Saint is at the pinnacle of the universe, and is known as the living dragon in Daxia. He is extremely free and easy, and is a true immortal-like figure on earth in this world.
With the strength of a Martial Saint, many situations can be changed. Whether it is the northern border or the southeast coast, one person can easily conquer it.
The barbarians on the Arctic border may still be a little bit of a problem, after all, there are hidden great wizards and shamans among them, but in the southeastern coastal area, the Kingdom of the Sunrise has not launched an all-out attack, and no Martial Saint has appeared. However, with the help of a Martial Saint, the entire southeastern coastal area can indeed be suppressed.
Moreover, in many cases, there is no need to use pure force to protect everything. As a Martial Saint-level figure, you can directly describe the situation related to the northern border and the southeastern coast to the superiors and reveal your own attitude. Naturally, the problems in the north and the southeastern coast will be solved.
Even after becoming a Martial Saint, as long as Zhang Mingtu expressed support for the Crown Prince or the Third Prince, both the Crown Prince and the Third Prince would use their greatest power to change the status of the two places in order to win the favor of a Martial Saint.
After all, in the eyes of the royal family of Daxia, neither the problems in the southeastern coastal areas nor the northern border areas were that big, at least not compared to their throne.
Standing at a higher level and looking down at the problem from a higher level, the problem becomes simpler and not as troublesome as it was at the beginning.
Initially, the son of a county magistrate could make Zhang Mingtu have no way to go up to heaven or down to earth.
The major issues that can affect the national situation today are not unsolvable difficulties for him, but Zhang Mingtu does not want to go down this path.
If you hadn't seen that smooth streak of light descending from the sky at the end, causing the thousand-foot-tall Buddha to dissolve and collapse, and the eternally falling hanging mountain to fall to the ground.
Zhang Mingtu will choose to abandon other methods and become a martial saint.
After all, practicing many of the most advanced methods can indeed make one invincible in the same realm, but no matter how invincible one is in the same realm, one cannot defeat people in a higher realm.
A martial saint could easily break Zhang Mingtu's invincible posture and kill him.
A higher realm is what more people pursue. Many people do pursue being invincible in the same realm, and it is what any destined protagonist that Zhang Mingtu can see pursues.
But a higher realm is the foundation.
"If I achieve Martial Sainthood through the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Sutra, can I block that light?"
Zhang Mingtu asked himself this question and finally shook his head. He had no confidence.
The thousand-foot-tall Buddha statue of the Pure Land Sect can be said to be the accumulation of hundreds of years of Pure Land Sect and the final foundation.
Just in terms of the accumulation of true energy, he is more powerful than a Martial Saint.
It is the greatest foundation of this sect that has been established for nearly a thousand years, but such a powerful Buddha is like a child in front of that beam of light.
Zhang Mingtu has great confidence in the Sutra of the Past Vows of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. With the help of the Sutra of the Past Vows of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, he has achieved the strength of a Martial Saint. His realm is absolutely extremely powerful. However, compared with the thousand-foot-tall Buddha and the nearly thousand-year accumulation of Hanging Mountain, Zhang Mingtu does not think he can gain an advantage.
"Achieve Martial Sainthood, roam freely between heaven and earth for ten years, and then die in the greatest calamity?"
Zhang Mingtu whispered, the horrific disaster twenty years later weighed on his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe.
Even now, thinking of that pure, sacred white light, he felt uneasy.
The most divine and sacred thing in the world possesses the most terrifying power.
"Practicing multiple magical skills together, being invincible at the same level, and achieving Martial Sainthood will also allow them to maintain a significant advantage. Perhaps there will be some turning point in that disaster..."
Zhang Mingtu had seen a man who had achieved the status of a martial saint by practicing the Sutra of the Past Vows of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, at the Osu Kannon Temple in the Land of the Rising Sun.
Jianzhen's remains were left there. After he became a Martial Saint, hundreds of years passed, but the Martial Saint's body remained unchanged. His golden body was immortal and could be said to be extremely powerful.
But it did not give Zhang Mingtu the feeling of being invincible.
Yu Zhifu, who is known as the body of a true dragon, has achieved the status of Martial Saint, but the feeling he gives Zhang Mingtu is not so difficult to guess.
