Maitreya Body is now eighty percent certain that the person standing behind the abbot Tianyun is probably Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor.
He made sense of the information he got from Azure Maiden, the man in monk's robes, and the abbot Tianyun:
The Thunderclap Temple created by Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor in the early years is definitely not what it is now. It is even closer to the current Nine Mountains Sect and Modern World. In this way, the current Thunderclap Temple, or even the Thunderclap Temple of this era, is not in line with the original intention of Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor.
The reason Maitreya Body can only guess:
First, the internal corruption of Thunderclap Temple.
The second reason, and what Maitreya Body thinks is the most important reason, is that Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor itself was influenced by Earth Emperor Corpse.
His purpose in establishing Dharma King Society is quite simple:
Earth Emperor Corpse is about breaking through the obstacles of Pure Land, Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor is about standing behind and rebuilding Buddhist School from the ruins.
Although they had different goals, they were both dissatisfied with the current Thunderclap Temple, so they worked together to promote the Western Continent incident in tacit understanding.
This Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor---- is really ruthless.
On the other hand, this Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor gave him a great opportunity:
When it comes to fighting and killing, although Nine Mountains Sect is not afraid of anyone, he doesn't feel that he has much advantage.
But when it comes to construction----
You ask Four Direction Buddhas to come along!
Maitreya Body asked, "I understand everything else, but this Buddhism is so prosperous, I----Universal Salvation Temple does not have Thunderclap Buddhist Law True Disciple."
Tianyun Abbot had a proud smile on his face, "Dharma King Society Yes."
Maitreya Body was shocked. This Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor is really generous. After thinking about it again, he understood it. If he dug again and again, Earth Emperor Corpse would run out.
"I would like to join Dharma King Society." Seeing that the situation was almost complete, Maitreya Body stopped being pretentious and said with clasped hands.
Abbot Tianyun smiled, led him into the monk's room in the guest courtyard, and said with a serious face, "What I want to teach you is Secret Method, which has been passed down by Leiyin for thousands of years. Don't underestimate it."
Maitreya Body nodded slightly with a solemn expression.
Even now, I have never looked down upon Thunderclap Temple. If Earth Emperor Corpse hadn't caused trouble in this sect, Xuanwei would probably be the strongest, and their inheritance is also the most mysterious.
If the current situation hadn't been like this, he would never have been able to come into contact with Thunderclap Temple's real Secret Method.
Tianyun The abbot took out a Jade Slip from his arms, handed it to Maitreya Body and said, "This is the secret book passed down to me by your master. I have been studying it for hundreds of years. You can read it first and ask me if you don't understand anything."
Maitreya Body took Jade Slip, looked at it attentively, and was fascinated by it.
This Cultivation Method is called <Formless Golden Body>. Probably because of his insufficient cultivation, this Cultivation Method only reached the Loose Immortal level and has no follow-up.
Cultivation Method The general outline written at the beginning is very mysterious: Why did the Buddha say that there is no self and no one, Non-Self is not selfless, neither death nor non-death, and so on.
Originally Maitreya Body thought he would not be able to understand it, but when he saw the back part, he understood it. Not only did he understand, he was even amazed.
Judging from what Maitreya Body currently knows, Xuanwei Immortal Way actually has one major source and two major branches.
One source is easy to understand. Simply put, it is Hongjun Dao Ancestor. The Daoism passed down by him shaped the basic appearance of Primordial Wilderness Immortal Way, and also gave Xuanwei sentient beings the most universal way to practice Cultivation Method. It can be said that Hongjun has the same text as the book.
The two major branches are a little more complicated.
One of the branches is from Taishang It started with Sage, spread to Supreme Dao, and later developed the factions of Yang Spirit Method, Dharma Body Method, and Celestial River Method. These three have different levels of complexity, and Cultivation Method has different details, but they actually come from the same source. To put it bluntly, they focus on self-cultivation and pay attention to the evolution of life.
The master of this Cultivation Method school is now <Yellow Court Scripture>.
Before I knew the emperor, I always thought that Xuanwei was the only one of Cultivation Method, and Divine Way Method was a variant of Yang Spirit Method.
But now he has other ideas.
Divine Way Method, Yang Spirit Method is not from Dao Venerable, but from Emperor.
The reason why the two are similar is simple. Emperor also learned the inheritance of Taishang Daoist.
To use an inappropriate analogy, the relationship between Divine Way Method and Yang Spirit Method is not father and son as I thought before, but cousins who have not seen each other for many years.
Fundamentally speaking, Divine Way Method is a method of cultivating sentient beings.
Although Xuanwei and most Cultivation Method have an audience, Divine Way Method still seems a bit special.
From Maitreya Body's perspective, Cultivation Method of the Supreme Dao series means "I" practice first, and then find an audience to help me practice.
Jade Pool Divine Way Method is to have the "audience" first and let the audience shape "me".
They appear to be the same, but in fact the cores are very different.
That's why Maitreya Body said that these are two branches.
From a geographical point of view, Eastern Continent is more of a monk who practices Yang Spirit Method, while Western Continent is the world of Divine Way Method.
For example, <Formless Golden Body> in front of you.
"Fellow Daoist?" Seeing Maitreya Body not speaking for a long time, the abbot Tianyun asked kindly, "Do you have any questions?"
Maitreya Body raised his head and thought for a moment, then nodded in the expectant eyes of Abbot Tianyun: "Yes."
"Tell me and listen."
"What about the back part?"
"----" Abbot Tianyun was stunned for a moment, raised his hand, pointed tremblingly at Jade Slip in Maitreya Body's hand and said, "Have you finished reading?"
"Finished reading.
"Do you understand everything?"
"Very easy to understand."
Abbot Tianyun's face changed continuously. He looked at Maitreya Body, as if he wanted to see if he was lying, but Maitreya Body's face was very sincere - after all, he is a True Immortal, he has studied <Yellow Court Scripture>, and he has fully mastered Jade Pool's Divine Way Method.
This <Formless Golden Body> is very strange to him, but it is not difficult to understand.
"So----I'm a little confused, so I'd like to ask fellow Daoists for advice." Abbot Tianyun didn't say clearly that he didn't believe it, but asked, "Excuse me, what is the meaning of no self and no person in this general outline, and how to interpret neither death nor no death."
Maitreya Body sighed and said, "This is the real power of Thunderclap Temple Cultivation Method. Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor is really a genius. It can even be said that this is the fundamental mentality of Thunderclap Method."
He finally understood why Water Mother did not become Grand Unity, but Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor did.
It's not that Water Mother is not awesome, it's that Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor has indeed created a very complete set of Divine Way Method doors.
It's his turn Grand Unity.
Tianyun Abbot's eyes widened, do you really understand?
That adult also said something similar, and even said that whoever can understand these few sentences is considered to have understood everything Thunderclap Method.
Tianyun The doubts in the abbot's heart subsided by half, but he couldn't help being curious and asked, "I would like to hear the details."
"Do you know Divine Way Method?"
"Understand a thing or two."
As Western Continent monks, they all know more or less about Jade Pool and Divine Way Method.
"Fellow Daoist, do you know the advantages and disadvantages of Divine Way Method?"
Abbot Tianyun smiled bitterly and said, "I only knew the benefits before. Divine Way Method cultivates very quickly. I am very envious of it."
"As for the disadvantages, I still listen to what the adults said." Abbot Tianyun sighed, "He said the biggest problem with Divine Way Method is Self-Loss."
"That's why there is no self and no one." Maitreya Body pointed at <Formless Golden Body> and said.
Tianyun Abbot unknowingly asked like an apprentice, "How to say?"
