"Do you have to wait that long?"
Chen Xuan was stunned for a moment.
He originally thought that reciting the Sutra of Salvation would only take a few hours at most, so it would be okay to wait a while.
As a result, now the fastest waiting time is three days, and you may even have to wait for half a month.
They don't have time to waste!
"Do you think they only recite the sutras once? They are Buddhists who believe in numbers very much. When they recite the sutras, they either recite them 49 times, or 81 times, or 108 times, or 720 times..."
The Sea Lord gave a bunch of numbers, but he concluded with one truth: monks don't just recite the sutra once, they recite it many times.
"If you don't believe me, ask him."
The Lord of the Sea raised his chin and motioned Chen Xuan to look at the Bodhisattva Wuneng of Kutuo Temple.
Bodhisattva Wuneng smiled awkwardly and nodded.
"In that case, I don't have time to sit here and listen to him nagging."
Chen Xuan shook his head, glanced at the Buddha, and said directly, "Old monk, since you know that our two distinguished guests are coming, why don't you stop chanting? Don't you want to give me, Chen, face? Do you believe that I will destroy your Great Leiyin Temple?"
In fact, under normal circumstances, when people of Chen Xuan's level come to the Great Leiyin Temple, it stands to reason that the Buddha must treat them with hospitality, and even if he is chanting scriptures, he will stop.
After all, Chen Xuan and Hai Zhu are not ordinary guests.
But the Buddha did not stop, which showed that he was somewhat disrespectful.
Since the other party doesn't give him face, there is no need for Chen Xuan to be too polite.
"Amitabha, little friend Chen Xuan, you are too impatient."
Hearing Chen Xuan's words, the Buddha's empty voice came into Chen Xuan's ears.
Chen Xuan looked up and saw that the Buddha was still chanting there, and the sound was transmitted through his divine thoughts.
In other words, this old monk was able to communicate with himself while chanting the scriptures.
"Old monk, you are being a little bit disrespectful. You can talk to me, but you deliberately keep silent. You have to wait until I say I want to destroy your Leiyin Temple before you speak?"
Chen Xuan spoke with some dissatisfaction.
"Alas, it is not that I intentionally neglected you two, but the true self of the Buddha is not in this sacred mountain. What remains in this sacred mountain is only the false self."
The Buddha's ethereal voice was heard again. This time, only Chen Xuan and the Sea Lord could hear his voice.
"What is the true self and the false self?"
Chen Xuan didn't understand what he said at all.
On the side, the Sea Lord's expression darkened.
After all, she was a person who had become a god in the last era, lived long enough, and had discussed the truth with the Buddha more than once.
Therefore, there is a certain understanding of the true self and the false self in Buddhism!
"Forget it, I'll take you to a place and you'll know."
The Buddha in the Great Leiyin Temple was still chanting scriptures.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes, and his pupils shone with golden light.
The next moment, he raised his hand, and in an instant, the world around Chen Xuan and the Sea Lord suddenly changed.
In an instant, they felt as if they had entered a continental gate and were traveling from one space to another.
In less than a breath, the figures of Chen Xuan and the Sea Lord flashed by.
Then, they saw that they had entered a golden space without knowing when.
In this space, there is endless golden Buddha light.
In front of them, there was a huge Buddha statue.
This Buddha statue is none other than the Buddha!
"Hmm? What is this place?"
Chen Xuan frowned, because he entered this golden space not actively but passively, and he didn't even have a way to refuse.
This made Chen Xuan somewhat unhappy. Of course, unhappiness was just a small matter. The key point was that this space looked very mysterious.
Especially the statue of Lord Buddha!
"Fellow Daoist Chen Xuan, this is my Buddhist world."
Suddenly, the Buddha statue began to speak.
As soon as he spoke, golden lotus flowers bloomed in this golden world.
The faces of Chen Xuan and the Sea Lord are reflected on the petals of each lotus.
Chen Xuan was fine, because he knew that old monsters like the Buddha had lived a long time and knew many tricks.
But it was different for the Sea Lord. Being in this golden Buddhist world, the Sea Lord felt a surge of emotions in his heart and was extremely shocked.
She even had a vague feeling that if the Buddha wanted, he could trap her in this golden Buddhist kingdom forever, and she would have no way out. It would be impossible for her to get out!
"Why did you drag us in here?"
Chen Xuan couldn't help but ask. He stared at the Buddha statue carefully. The more he looked, the stranger it seemed to him. This Buddha statue didn't seem to be made of normal gold.
"No need to look at it. This is my false self. I am a statue formed by the thoughts of countless believers. I carry the will of thousands of believers."
The Buddha slowly explained, "Although I am a false self, I possess the same strength as my true self."
The way he speaks is a bit abstract, talking about both his true self and his false self.
However, Chen Xuan finally understood that the so-called false self was actually just a clone of the original body.
And this incarnation is formed by the beliefs of every Buddhist believer.
Don't underestimate the power of faith. The faith of one or two people is too small and perhaps insignificant.
But what about the faith of ten thousand or twenty thousand people? Although it is not much, the power of faith is enough for a martial master to create an external incarnation.
What if the power of faith of hundreds of millions of people is combined together?
Directly let the Buddha condense his external incarnation!
"Since you are the false self of Buddha, then where is the true self of Buddha?" Chen Xuan asked.
The Buddha clasped his hands together and spoke slowly: "Amitabha, my true self, like the God, is experiencing thousands of tribulations and countless difficulties!"
Chen Xuan discovered that this Buddha always liked to speak in a roundabout way and was not the type to speak directly to you.
"You mean, the Buddha's true body has also gone through the Five Deteriorations of Heaven and Man?"
The Sea Lord was greatly shocked.
The two strongest people in the entire five realms had unexpectedly encountered the five signs of decline ahead of time.
"Yes, the me you see now, as well as the me in the Great Leiyin Temple, are actually my false selves. My true self is in the process of overcoming the tribulation. However, since this is a special period, I have not let other disciples know about this."
The fake Buddha spoke slowly.
At present, in the entire Lingshan, no one knows that the real Buddha is in seclusion to overcome the tribulation.
As for where he is in seclusion, just like the Lord God, it is mysterious and no one knows.
Even the people closest to me don’t know.
"I don't care whether you are my real self or my fake self. I just heard you say that you have the same strength as my real self, right? Now, I invite you to join us in exploring the secrets deep inside the Origin Continent. Do you want to go?"
Chen Xuan asked with a smile.
