Chapter 269: One Plant, Two Flowers, Twin Flowers (15)
Is it really impossible to break the seal of these Buddhist beads?
Shisui transformed her spirit into a sharp sword and attacked the dark chaos fiercely, trying to tear a way out.
But unfortunately, no matter what moves she used, the sharp spiritual power seemed to hit a soft ball of cotton. She had no place to use her strength and there was no response.
"I told you, it's useless." Huai Qian had no way to live or die, and had long since given up resistance. "If you don't kill me with your own hands, you will never escape from this small place."
Huai Qian himself is seeking death, and the Buddhist beads are the magic weapon of Dipankara Buddha, one of the Three Buddhas of the past, present and future.
Various subjective and objective conditions forced Shi Sui to take action against Huai Qian.
But Shisui did not take any action.
She felt that both she and Huai Qian were being plotted against.
No, it’s not just them. I’m afraid even Taoist Xuanqing is a pawn among them.
Jade Ding Zhenren is one of the powerful "Twelve Golden Immortals." Why would he go to such great lengths just to allow his disciple to experience a love tribulation and increase his power?
Are you farting?!
It can't be that simple...
Although she still doesn't know what the real purpose behind Jade Ding Zhenren is, Shi Sui hates the feeling of being used.
"I'm sorry, Huai Qian. I listened to you last time, but this time, it's your turn to listen to me. When you were defeated by me, you knew you deserved death, but you still insisted on surviving. This time, I know you deserved death, but I will still insist on keeping you alive!"
Shisui closed her eyes, and a layer of deep red light emanated from the inside out, surrounding her entire body like flowing blood... That was her spiritual power, the cultivation accumulated after resolving countless obsessions.
Huai Qian felt the powerful impact of spiritual pressure, and the slender flower swayed left and right, spinning and dancing.
"What are you doing?!"
"I am Manjushage, and you are Mandragora. It is true that we grew in the underworld, but don't forget our true origins..."
The fiery red Lycoris radiata represents endless eternal life, a precursor to world destruction, and a call from the other side.
The pure white datura flower represents endless longing, desperate love, and a letter from heaven.
The Lotus Sutra, Volume 1, records: "After the Buddha had spoken this sutra, he sat cross-legged and entered into the samadhi of the place of infinite meaning, his body and mind motionless. At that time, flowers fell from the sky in disorder. There were four kinds of flowers: mandarava flowers, mahamandara flowers, manjushaka flowers, and mahamandara flowers. These flowers scattered over the Buddha and the great assembly."
Lycoris radiata and Mandragora flower are both one of the "Four Auspicious Flowers from Heaven". They are originally flowers from heaven. Anyone who sees these flowers will get rid of evil.
Later, in order to comfort the dead, he voluntarily descended into hell, allowing the deceased to step on his body and follow the guidance to the underworld...
Shisui's spiritual power continued to overflow, fiery red, as if burning her body.
"Since it is a bead of the ancient Buddha Dipamkara, it must have a considerable Buddha nature. Not clinging to emptiness, not clinging to existence, without birth and death, returning to the quiet void... Before setting foot in the underworld, we are also flowers beside the Buddha."
If you can't beat them, join them.
Shisui let her spiritual power spread throughout every part of the beads, trying to merge with the seal.
Her spirit gradually became transparent and slowly disappeared.
Wherever the crimson spiritual energy went, beautiful flowers bloomed. Patches of Lycoris radiata filled the chaotic space, boundless and endless, surrounding Huai Qian's small white Lycoris radiata that looked like a seedling in the center.
Huai Qian cried, "Shi Sui, are you crazy?! You've shattered your own spirit, which is equivalent to destroying all the cultivation you've put in over the years! Stop it, I don't need you to save me at all!"
"Who said I wanted to save you? I just don't like being used! I have my own obsessions... Even if I lose all my cultivation, I don't want the little bit of power I've accumulated to become a pawn in someone else's hands."
Tokiho dispersed all of her spiritual energy and revealed her true form—a dazzling Lycoris radiata.
Two flowers, one red and one white, are pressed tightly together, just like before, as if many years ago they were competing for nutrients at the junction of yin and yang while leaning on each other.
Huai Qian was inspired, and small drops of water like dew appeared on the petals... She cried.
The red and white lights entangled with each other and continued to spread.
…
Outside the Buddhist beads.
Taoist Xuanqing completely disregarded the rules between master and disciple and loudly questioned his master Jade Ding Zhenren.
"Master, you are the one I respect the most. Can you tell me the truth today? Was it you who arranged my meeting with Huai Qian and Shi Sui?"
"Just an encounter? Then you underestimate me too much." Jade Ding Zhenren showed a smug smile on his face. "You thought Huai Qian was staying well in the underworld, why did she suddenly run out? Think about it again... Who planted the twin sisters Huai Qian and Shi Sui at the intersection of Yin and Yang?"
"Master, this... from beginning to end, was everything your plan?! What was the purpose?!"
"They were originally seeds from the Buddha's seat, which I obtained by chance. Twin flowers are extremely rare in the Three Realms, and when mature, they become the most precious and precious material for alchemy. If I planted them in the Heavenly Realm, they would definitely not grow well due to the conflict between Buddhism and Taoism. If I planted them in Hell, they would belong to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva or Fengdu Emperor. Therefore, they can only be placed at the junction of Yin and Yang, where they are born and nurtured by nature, so they can absorb the essence of heaven and earth."
Jade Ding Zhenren originally wanted to harvest the twin flowers after one of them devoured the other, but he did not expect that the winner Shi Sui would show mercy to Huai Qian.
That's why a series of events happened later...
Now he just waits for the fully grown Shi Sui to kill Huai Qian, and then happily put her into the magic weapon and take her back to the fairyland to make elixirs.
"Okay, your mission is complete, and it's almost time to get rid of the love poison in your body."
Jade Ding Zhenren drew out the Immortal-Slaying Sword from behind him and pointed it at Taoist Xuanqing.
