Chapter 1044: Rebellion against Tiangang

Master Mingyu was stunned when he saw this scene. The requirement for this level was that the monk must not cry out in pain while being beaten, in order to pass.

Of course, the secret realm will not allow the supervisor to whip continuously. After a while, the statue will drop a stone and kill the supervisor.

The overseer did many evil things and was killed by falling rocks, which is in line with the Buddhist concept that good is rewarded with good and evil is punished with evil.

Master Mingyu has presided over the Western Paradise Secret Realm for thousands of times and has seen countless monks make choices in the secret realm. The greatest difficulty of this level is to endure the pain. Ninety percent of the monks cannot hold on until the supervisor suffers retribution and cries out in pain. The rest who persisted also gritted their teeth and persevered. That's why he is optimistic about the true heart that enters a state of oblivion of both self and other.

Buddhism advocates recognizing suffering through mindfulness observation, so as to reach a state beyond suffering.

But this was the first time I had seen someone like Xinding who started beating people right away, and judging from the supervisor's screams, Xinding was beating extremely hard.

"Wait, why are you hitting people?" Master Mingyu couldn't help but show up when seeing this. He can control the secret realm of the West to a certain extent, and after a while, he will calm his mind and forget that he has appeared.

"He wanted to hit me." He said calmly. In fact, he didn't change his expression when he hit the man just now.

In the secret realm of the Western Paradise, the monks will show their most instinctive reactions and are unable to fake or lie.

"Don't you know that we Buddhists advocate facing pain without changing our expression and contemplating the pain?"

"I know, but if it was my fault, I would accept being beaten. But now it's these supervisors who made me work beyond the limit. I got tired of carrying the stones, and that's why the stones fell. It's the supervisors' fault, so why should I be beaten?" Xin Ding said with confidence. Even the abbot has to be reasonable.

"Then do you know that in Buddhism we believe that good deeds will be rewarded with good and evil deeds will be punished with evil? This supervisor will be punished for wantonly beating others?"

"Isn't it retribution that he is being beaten by me now?"

"I……"

Master Mingyu tried to think for a long time but couldn't find any words to refute.

This level tests your "patience". You can pass it if you don't cry out in pain. If you remain calm and don't cry out in pain throughout the whole process, you will pass it smoothly.

With the help of the fairy's divine consciousness, Lu Yang witnessed the performance of all the monks in the illusion, and the performance of Xin Ding was the most outstanding.

"What a good talent." Lu Yang praised Xinding greatly. Based on Xinding's performance, it would be no problem for him to pass the test of Dao Sect.

After watching the first level, Lu Yang had a question in his mind, and asked one of the five founders of Buddhism in confusion: "But fairy, does Buddhism advocate being beaten?"

"Oh, I accidentally discovered that when Qilinxian was beaten by Xiaoling and Lianyi, he always pretended to be in pain, but he was actually laughing. I asked him why, and he said that this is the practice of Buddhism, to experience pain, understand pain, and transcend pain."

"At the time I asked him why I didn't remember this truth in the Buddhist story we made up, and he said it was there now."

After hearing this, Lu Yang quickly distanced himself from the matter: "Hey, hey, hey, I didn't hear anything."

How could I not control my curiosity and learn another ancient secret?

"You didn't hear it? Then tell me again..."

“No, no.” Lu Yang didn’t dare to listen to it a second time. The second time, the Immortal Fairy might think of other things and reveal other ancient secrets.

"By the way, is this illusion a capture of a certain era during the Daqian period?" Lu Yang changed the subject.

All illusions must be based on reality. A cultivator cannot imagine something they have never seen. The one who constructed this illusion should be the Daqian Buddhist cultivator.

The entire fantasy scene is of countless slaves carrying stones upwards to build the statue. If the slaves perform poorly, they will be beaten by the supervisors and live a miserable life.

The statue was almost built, and Lu Yang just happened to recognize the original shape of the statue.

The two demon-slaying gods who attacked the Laurel Fairy Palace.

In the early days of the Daqian Dynasty, large-scale construction was carried out to build statues of various gods to spread faith and gain incense.

"It should be. The owner of this Buddha's breath is a Buddhist cultivator from the Daqian period. There must be many Buddhist cultivators purifying and transcending something, which is why there are so many Buddha's breaths in this secret realm." The Immortal Fairy analyzed.

"How can I feel the aura of Yingtianxian and Suiyuexian in the depths of this secret realm? Could it be that they both refined an immortal weapon together?" The Immortal Fairy vaguely sensed that it was a very familiar immortal weapon, but she suddenly couldn't remember it.

Just like all the tests presided over by Master Mingyu, this time only 90% of the monks were screened out and 10% passed.

Except that Xin Ding's way of clearing the level is somewhat special.

Those monks who have been screened out will, under the control of the Buddha's breath, walk out of the secret realm of the West in a daze and leave the chaotic fog forbidden area. Outside the forbidden area, there will be monks who have been arranged in advance to pick them up and take charge of the follow-up work.

The second test is also an illusion.

Xinchen, who entered the monastery with Xinding, saw a wide river in front of him. There were two people beside the river, his old monk master and a beautiful but timid woman.

The woman was afraid to cross the river.

Please...you...collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠBar (Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\Bar!)

The old monk took the initiative to step forward, carrying the woman across the river, and followed closely with a heavy heart.

After crossing the river and parting with the woman, he frowned, feeling extremely puzzled. He had been holding back his doubts all the way, and finally couldn't help asking, "Master, aren't you breaking the precepts of lust by doing this?"

The old monk touched Xinchen's head lovingly and said, "Xinchen, I have let it go long ago, but you haven't."

Xinzhen from the Discipline Institute witnessed the entire incident without saying a word. The moment the old monk let the woman go, he also let her go without any doubts in his heart.

A heavy heart makes you fail, a sincere mind makes you pass.

Master Mingyu smiled. Xinzhen was indeed a good candidate. He was very satisfied with the two consecutive tests.

The theme of this level is "letting go".

Buddhism advocates that female beauty is nothing but a skeleton in the dark. A true monk should treat female beauty as nothing. If he can treat female beauty as nothing, he will not ask any questions.

Under the influence of Buddha's breath, it is impossible to conceal the truth. After witnessing the process of carrying the woman across the river, if the tester has any doubts in his heart, he will definitely ask about it. Asking about it means that he has not let it go, and the test will fail.

"How is Xin Ding?" Master Mingyu remembered Xin Ding's special performance in the previous level and became curious about Xin Ding.

He entered Xin Ding's illusion, and Xin Ding's choice once again exceeded his expectations.

Xinding took the lead and took the initiative to carry the girl across the river before the old monk. However, because Xinding was not yet an adult and not tall enough, carrying the girl would get her shoes wet, so he simply picked her up in his arms, and his posture was quite indecent.

In the thousands of secret realms, no one has ever done this! Master Mingyu was extremely puzzled. After he had crossed the river with his mind settled, he appeared again and wanted to ask for clarification.

"Xin Ding, why did you carry that woman across the river?"

Xinding was extremely surprised to see Master Mingyu appear.

"Abbot, why haven't you let this go yet?"
