Second Round of the Merit Golden Ring!

Buzz!

Inside the enormous temple, golden light filled the air, almost blinding people!

Countless Buddhist seals surrounded Qi Zixiao, and the terrifying golden light even pierced through the temple and soared into the sky.

Countless Buddhist chants emanated from the various Buddha statues within the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect, ultimately converging on the location of Qi Zixiao.

Golden light filled the sky!

This astonishing scene shocked the entire Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect!

"What is that?!"

A young monk exclaimed in surprise.

"Ah, why is it that all the Swastika Buddha Seal rising into the sky?"

"Oh my god, what on earth happened?!"

At the same time, a senior monk's expression changed, filled with fear. "What is this?!"

"The Mahayana Buddhist Principles have manifested in the world, and he is surrounded and blessed by ten thousand Buddhas..."

"Could it be that Buddha's Disciple has attained enlightenment in Great Vehicle Buddhism?!"

At this moment, countless Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect disciples were shocked and unable to calm down.

A Gatha, also consisting of four lines, with each line corresponding to the previous one.

The body is Bodhi, the mind a bright mirror; constantly wipe it clean, lest it be covered with dust.

Bodhi is not a tree, nor is the bright mirror a stand; originally there is nothing, so where can dust alight?

You say one thing, I'll refute it one thing, and I'll refute it until it's completely broken!

The scene before me was terrifying...

The Buddha's Disciple was stunned, his mind filled with disbelief.

The dozens of monks around were all utterly astonished, muttering the Gatha that Qi Zixiao had just uttered, unable to calm down for a long time.

"Bodhi is not a tree, nor is the bright mirror a stand..."

Benxin appeared dazed and muttered to himself.

"Yes, Bodhi is not a tree, nor is the mind a mirror stand."

"It was originally an empty entity, so how could it be stained with dust?"

"Over the years... I have become attached to appearances."

"Benefactor Qi, Benxin grateful for your guidance!"

Benxin stood up, put his hands together, and nodded gently to Qi Zixiao: "This is Great Vehicle Buddhism. Benefactor Qi's Buddhist teachings are amazing. This old monk... admits that I am inferior."

"Master!?"

The Buddha's Disciple was shocked. "Why do you say that? She just stumbled upon it by accident, this..."

"Refrain from Anger and refrain from excessive talking."

Buzz!

A dazzling Buddha-like light shone from Benxin body, and his aura underwent a dramatic transformation compared to moments before.

Qi Zixiao's Gatha has rendered the Buddhist principle of "Do not let dust settle" which Benxin have held as the supreme Buddhist principle for many years worthless!

However, Benxin was not angry; on the contrary, he benefited greatly from it and gained tremendous advantages!

At this moment, Benxin had made considerable gains in both cultivation and Buddhism. He was filled with endless emotion and felt a mixture of shock and anticipation towards Qi Zixiao.

"Benefactor Qi, are there any other practitioners of Great Vehicle Buddhism?"

"If so, Benxin eternally grateful, and I would offer the Immaculate Relic with both hands!"

For those who cultivate the Tao, "If one hears the Tao in the morning, one can die content in the evening!"

So, what about those who practice Buddhism?

Great Vehicle Buddhism is something they are willing to dedicate their lives to pursuing.

Now, Qi Zixiao's Gatha has completely shocked my Benxin. This kind of Gatha contains profound Buddhist principles. Could an ordinary person write such a gatha? Especially in such a short time after hearing my Gatha!

He naturally assumed that Qi Zixiao's Buddhist teachings had reached an incredibly profound level, a level that he himself could not even begin to reach.

If one could hear more Great Vehicle Buddhism, what could be worse than receiving a Immaculate Relic?

However, Qi Zixiao almost burst out laughing when she heard this.

That's exactly what I've been waiting to hear!

Qi Saintess had read quite a few novels on Earth, many of which contained similar plot points.

Many of these authors enjoy writing Buddhism 'gathas'.

Qi Zixiao is a cultivator in the Void Refining stage, with extraordinary memory. Even if he only sees something once, he can remember it clearly!

It's just reciting some Buddhist verses, isn't it?

Just pick some that sound sophisticated!

Of course, Qi Zixiao was also well aware that the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect was not so bad. They also understood many Buddhist principles and had a lot of Great Vehicle Buddhism!

but...

So what?

Buddhism also exists on the other side of the world, and because they cannot practice it themselves, they are even more devoted to studying Buddhist principles and teachings...

So... all you need to do is pick out some impressive ones and read them aloud!

Therefore, she smiled calmly and said softly, "Why not?"

"The retribution for good and evil follows like a shadow. The Karma of three lifetimes cycle without fail. If this life is wasted, there is no going back."

"All conditioned phenomena are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, shadows, dew, and lightning; thus should they be viewed."

The moment he opened his mouth!

Boom!

In an instant, the Buddha's light shone brightly, and countless Swastika Buddha Seal descended from the sky. One beam of Buddha's light after another shot down from the sky, as if to turn the entire world into gold, and the Buddha's light shone everywhere!

The Buddha's Disciple was completely stunned and had no idea what to say.

He was Benxin moved, yet like a sponge, he eagerly memorized every single word of Qi Zixiao's verse!

"First, contemplate the Buddha; second, contemplate the Dharma; third, contemplate the Sangha; fourth, contemplate the precepts; fifth, contemplate giving; sixth, contemplate the heavens. By cultivating these six contemplations, the Dharma will increase without any loss."

"One flower, one world; one Buddha, one Tathagata."

"What was originally there is now gone, and what was originally gone is now there. There is no such thing as the law of the three worlds."

"..."

One after another, classic Buddhist verses from the other side of the world were recited by Qi Zixiao, and at that moment, all the Buddha statues resonated with him!

The entire Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect was shaken to its core.

In the end, it was as if the supreme Buddha was chanting, reciting the Buddhist verses spoken by Qi Zixiao, which all the disciples of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect could clearly hear!

It was at this moment that everyone was shocked, unable to extricate themselves, and completely captivated by it...

"This???"

Su Muxue, who was just about to find an opportunity to sneak into the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect, was very curious when she saw this.

"What happened?"

"Why is there such a strong fluctuation of Buddhist teachings? Could it be related to Zixiao?"

She was taken aback, and at the same time, somewhat worried.

But when she discovered that many disciples of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect were in a daze, engrossed in the incomparably profound Buddhist chants, she was immediately excited!

"A great opportunity!"

"They were all captivated, so wouldn't I be able to come and go as I pleased during that time?!"

"Now's the time! Make your move!"

Buzz!

Time waits for no one.

Su Muxue didn't know how long this state would last, but she just needed to hurry up and get what she wanted!

Inside the ancient temple.

Qi Zixiao became more and more enthusiastic as she spoke. After she had finished reciting the classic Buddhist sayings she knew about Earth, she rolled her eyes and started reciting Buddhist scriptures!

"Thus have I heard. At one time, the Buddha was staying in the Jetavana Vihara in Shravasti, together with a great assembly of twelve hundred and fifty monks. At that time, when the World-Honored One was eating, he put on his robes, took his bowl, and went into the great city of Shravasti to beg for alms. After begging for alms in the city in due order, he returned to his dwelling place. After eating, he put away his robes and bowl, washed his feet, spread out his seat, and sat down."

Rumble!!!

The earth and sky shook violently!

This moment is not limited to the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect alone.

When Qi Zixiao recited the first chapter of the Diamond Sutra, the entire Western Wilderness, and even the Cultivation World, seemed to be shaken by a thunderclap!

Countless powerful beings were awakened and emerged from their Secluded Cultivation Place. They tried to calculate with their fingers, but could not figure out anything.

However, they no longer need to calculate anything.

When the powerful beings looked up in astonishment, they immediately discovered that the golden divine light above the Western Wilderness was incredibly dazzling, with countless Buddhist runes soaring into the sky, enveloping the golden light, which was brilliant and intense!

"That is..."

"Heaven bestows merit?!"

"This?!"

"For millions of years, the entire Cultivation World has never bestowed merits, yet recently it has happened time and time again?"

"Last time it was the Purple Mansion in the Eastern Wasteland, and this time... it's the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect in the Western Wilderness?!"

Shock!

Stunned!

Unbelievable!

Want to attract heavenly merit?

It's so difficult!

In the early stages, things were relatively simple. Perhaps by creating a large religion, gathering many disciples, and saving people from suffering, one could gain some merit.

Alternatively, creating the world and spreading the Dharma widely, enabling people to protect themselves, is also a meritorious act!

To secure a place of refuge for one's clan is a meritorious act!

Creating extraordinary scriptures, laws, and other texts is also a meritorious act!

However, as history progresses and becomes longer, once a certain point is reached, merit becomes increasingly difficult to attain.

It's like getting the first kill in an online game; getting the 'first kill' is considered a great merit! A second or third kill? Even if it happens, it's extremely rare and impossible to trigger a windfall of merit!

In the later stages, most of the first kills of the 'BOSS' have been obtained, so how much merit is left?

Want to attract heavenly merit?

That would be incredibly difficult, and that's why no one in the entire Cultivation World has been able to activate it for millions of years.

But recently, it's been one after another?

After Eastern Wasteland Western Wilderness is finished, the Western Wilderness will come. After the Western Wilderness is finished, will the Southern Wilderness, Northern Wilderness, Central Province, and so on all receive divine blessings?

The powerful beings were all taken aback and shocked.

Purple Mansion.

Mo Daolin flashed into the endless sky and, with a wave of his hand, gazed at the Western Wilderness!

A moment later, with a wave of his hand, a virtual mirror appeared in front of him, displaying an 'overlooking view' of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect!

At this moment, the Buddha's light filled the sky and countless Buddha seals were present in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect. At the same time, Merit Golden Cloud rolled and surged endlessly in the sky!

But when he tried to make further calculations, he couldn't see or calculate them at all!

"This feeling."

Mo Daolin, startled, couldn't help but smile.

He had only ever felt this inability to calculate anything with one person, and that was...

Qi Zixiao!

Central Province...

The leaders of the three holy lands all found the situation troublesome.

In the Nine Dragons Holy Land, Long Wu stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the Western Wilderness, muttering to himself.

"First, the Purple Mansion of the Eastern Wasteland attracted a shower of merits from the heavens. Now, news has spread that Qi Zixiao, the Purple Mansion Saintess, has condensed Merit Golden Ring, making her an unparalleled Peerless Genius with limitless potential..."

"Now, the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect of the Western Wilderness has also attracted heavenly merit, and the Four Desolations Wildernesses are becoming increasingly unfathomable..."

Supreme Unity Holy Land.

Holy Master Jiang Yi's expression was cold and indifferent, his eyes piercing through the endless void. Finally, he let out a cold snort.

"The plan... must be accelerated!"

Jade Pool Holy Land.

The Holy Mother of Jade Pool frowned and remained silent.

No one knows what she's thinking.

In the end, all that remained was a soft sigh...
