Chapter 169 Heading to Jinhua?
So that's how it was...
An unusual light flickered in Li Su's eyes, as if a divine glint was beginning to emerge.
The Vajra Strength is quite different from that of the Amitabha Sutra, yet there is a consistency between them.
The fundamental teaching of the Amitabha Sutra is the construction of the Buddha Land.
The fundamental principle of Vajra Strength is also the foundation of the world.
However, unlike the Pure Land of the Amitabha Sutra, the Vajra Strength constructs a world where each grain of sand contains a world.
Cultivate your vows, and you will create a world; a grain of sand contains a world.
The Buddha Land is a vast world, a realm for all sentient beings, an unsurpassed realm. One world can contain all sentient beings, thus forming a great chiliocosm.
The Vajra Strength cultivator's world is a small world, the Saha world, a microscopic world. One world contains countless dust particles, which is a small chiliocosm.
Li Su's recent practice of Vajra Strength only grasped its nature, but did not delve into its essence, mainly because he had too little time and too many other things to do.
Now that I have calmed down and focused all my attention on the practice of Vajra Strength, with the Dao Exposition function fully activated 24/7, I immediately realized the neglect I had previously shown.
He stretched out his palm, pinched his thumb and forefinger together in the air, and channeled his own willpower into it, creating a small world.
Also known as Vajra Realm.
A single grain of sand can be a Vajra.
This single Vajra can fulfill three thousand wishes, and billions of dust particles in the world can form a mountain. This mountain is Mount Sumeru, or a mustard seed mountain. The mountain is so vast that it has no boundaries, yet it is also as small as a speck of dust.
A single grain of sand may be small, but it has the power to destroy the world.
When it reaches its full potential, it can condense three thousand grains of sand to form the Vajra Great Realm.
Of course, Li Su has not yet reached that level of cultivation. A single grain of sand is not much; it requires the fulfillment of three thousand vows, each vow taking ten years to complete, so it takes thirty thousand years to form a single grain of sand.
Looking at the Vajra Realm formed at his fingertips, Li Su's eyes bulged with veins. The more he understood, the more explosive his inner world became.
He slammed the Vajra Realm to the ground, yelling, "Screw you, you bastard!"
A grain of sand takes 30,000 years to form, so how can it take 3,000 grains to achieve greatness?
Ninety million years??
Are you kidding me?!
Only a lunatic would practice this kind of thing, okay???
I said that the Primordial World times were based on the Yuanhui (元会) as the unit of time, so it seems that a single cultivation technique could be practiced for about a Yuanhui.
No wonder the Primordial Dao Fruit is so abnormal; it has 5.6 billion years of cultivation! Even a pig could become so powerful with that!
Don't be angry, don't be angry!
Li Su took a breath to calm herself down. It's not a big deal, is it?
In fact, the Buddha Land is pretty much the same. Having cultivated to this point, Li Su has roughly grasped the general situation of his own Buddha Land.
Didn't we mention earlier that his Buddha Land also contains precious temples, pagodas, Twin Sala Trees, and the image of the Buddha?
Once all those structures are completed, the foundation of the Buddha Land will be laid.
Then, with this Buddha Land shining eternally, it can transform into one wheel every ten thousand years. Twelve wheels represent the realm of Bodhisattvas, twenty-four wheels represent the realm of Buddhas, and thirty-six wheels represent the realm of the Buddha, the World Honored One.
Eat shit!!!
Li Su was dumbfounded. For the first time, he experienced the unfriendly nature of cultivation towards humans. A hundred years is a long time, yet it can wither and decay your mind. A supernatural power measured in units of ten thousand years? Hah, you really have supernatural powers...
Incidentally, Daoist Thunder Method doesn't have many time requirements, but if you want to master it, there's only one tiny requirement: you need to personally experience a great tribulation. After all, this is the origin of it. So you have to experience it firsthand to understand what it truly is.
Friendly reminder: Remember to improve your strength, otherwise getting killed by a lightning bolt would be terrible.
He took a long breath in and then exhaled deeply. No wonder he's a Daoist master; while others are desperately trying to survive the great calamity, only a Daoist master would observe it with such interest and then create this so-called Thunder Method.
Forget it, let's go observe the Dragon Division Strength. Suddenly, I feel that the dragons' supernatural abilities are closer to reality.
Li Su closed his eyes and removed all of Dragon Division Strength's Buddhist Sect insights, leaving only the dragon clan inscriptions. This was good; everything was clean and pure.
The content is limited, but it reveals profound truths. The magical weaving and the writing of this material are truly remarkable.
The power of the divine dragon—it's simply incredible!
It's not that dragons can summon wind and rain, or fly and disappear into the earth. In fact, those are crooked and heretical methods. It's a pity that from the East Sea Dragon Palace down to the shrimp soldiers and crab generals, everyone regards those abilities as the fundamental supernatural powers of the dragon race.
No, that's not true!
The dragon race's strongest supernatural power, their fundamental technique, is none other than their physical body and their strength.
He follows the path of the great patriarch Heaven-Opening Sect, proving his path through force.
Extremely simple, extremely straightforward.
The fundamental law of the Dragon Clan has a very simple inscription, just a single character. All supernatural powers originate from it. If it weren't for the Dao Exposition, Li Su wouldn't have been able to discover that although the dragon roar within the Dragon Division Strength is ever-changing and full of myriad variations, once you remove all the miscellaneous things, it is still fundamentally this: power!
Once this inscription is written into the body, it's not too difficult. Given Li Su's current condition, if he goes all out, he can create about ten thousand a day. Then, once he writes it into every cell of his body, he'll succeed.
How many cells does a human have again?
Under normal circumstances, a rough calculation would put it at most as many as sixty trillion?
A maximum of 6 billion days? That's not much...
It's only about 16,438,356 years, um, hehe. Hehehe.
grass!
How could the skills of a master Heaven-Opening Sect be simple?
He's already Heaven-Opening Sect, is there anyone more amazing than him?
Proving the Dao through force—countless in the entire Primordial World world, is he the only one who can do it? Li Su is certain that this technique is definitely simple at the beginning, but it will probably only become more difficult as you go further. If proving the Dao through force were so easy, the Primordial World wouldn't just have six saints, but six hundred saints.
The thought of six hundred powerful beings at the Heaven-Opening Sect dominating the world is truly beautiful, so beautiful...
Therefore, it's probably not a matter of time before this method is mastered, but the level of mastery required is also a problem.
Didn't you see the Great One Who Heaven-Opening Sect was killed the very next moment after proving his Dao?
Whew!
Li Su let out a long breath and smiled. Yes, how could the path of the Heaven-Opening Sect master be so simple?
Well, I should just focus on my cultivation and stop thinking about all that other stuff.
As for whether it can achieve great success...?
Haha, it's nice to dream a little when you have nothing to do.
Proving the Dao to Hunyuan? Anything can happen in a dream.
Li Su calmed down. Although the Dao Exposition brought him countless conveniences, making his already terrifying talent even more terrifying, it also undoubtedly brought a lot of worries. The seemingly endless length of his supernatural power cultivation made him tremble with fear.
"Elder brother!"
A cute little girl's voice rang out, and a tiny figure suddenly rushed into Li Su's arms.
After that day, the little girl and Li Su became very close. She wasn't shy at all. She wrapped her little elbows around Li Su's neck, blinked her big eyes, and called out, "Brother, candy, candy!"
Li Su, who was initially worried about the supernatural power, suddenly became happy and experienced Wu Mo's charm. Girls really are like warm cotton-padded jackets.
Dao Guo continued his cultivation, and Li Su, supporting the little guy, said, "You can eat candy, but let me see your progress in cultivation!"
The little girl's face was flushed, and her eyes shone with joy. Without hesitation, she stretched out her small hand, on which inscriptions shimmered—the dragon power refined by Li Su, the very source of power. Although the other party was a snake, a snake is still a branch of a dragon, isn't it? She thought she'd let the other party try and see if it would work.
The little one is extremely talented and making good progress. Her Primordial Spirit cultivation has spread to her limbs. Don't be fooled by her small arms and elbows; her strength is quite formidable. If she were to throw a tantrum on the spot, it would cause mountains to collapse and the earth to split.
Li Su gently pinched the other girl's delicate nose, smiled like an aunt, and nodded as if looking at her own daughter, saying, "Very good, you've improved!"
The little girl's eyes narrowed into crescent moons; she was overjoyed.
Li Su stretched out her hand and grasped at the air.
The essence of Daoism emerged.
This was something he created himself. Four days ago, a little girl came to him looking upset, saying that her older sister had hit her. He created it to comfort her.
Using dragon patterns as the core and a small world as the framework, various Daoist elements such as mountains, water, wind, and earth are incorporated into it. Then, through the analysis of the structure of sugar using Dao Exposition, Daoist sugar is formed!
How to describe it? It has the smell of nature!
Of course, although the purpose and method were somewhat joking, there is no doubt that this candy is essentially equivalent to Li Su's understanding of the Dao and his enlightenment of the Dharma.
So it is really, really delicious, especially for sentient beings.
The little girl couldn't help but tremble as she took a bite. The flavor melted in her mouth, and the taste was indescribable. It was as if she had eaten ten tons of lollipops in one go, and the whole world had become sweet.
"Tasty!"
"As long as it tastes good!"
Li Su smiled, but didn't get up. He remained seated, letting the little guy hang around his neck, and continued his cultivation.
The little girl was very well-behaved. She lay nestled in Li Su, occasionally shifting her position, and then began to breathe evenly, starting her cultivation as well.
Li Su practiced the most fundamental Daoist and Buddhist powers.
The so-called "learning from the Tao and following nature" is the fundamental principle of my own will.
His influence on the surrounding area was enormous. Even if his level of cultivation was not high, he was in fact a small world of his own, a small Buddha.
With the fusion of the two forces, the little girl, who was originally quite confused about cultivation and was at the age of lively bouncing around, also restrained her nature and obediently began to cultivate, seizing this great opportunity.
One repair session can take a whole day.
It's night.
Li Su opened her eyes, patted the other person's head, and after seeing that the other person was awake, she took out a candy and put it in the other person's mouth, saying, "Alright, let's go home, otherwise your sister will worry again."
The little girl opened her eyes, lowered her head, pursed her lips, and her expression was extremely complicated. She nodded and, unlike her lively self during the day, stood up lightly. Her ears were red, and the next moment she ran towards the sea and splashed into the ocean.
Li Su watched the other person leave, and couldn't help but shake her head and smile. This little guy, sometimes it really felt like the other person had become a different person.
He didn't mind, closed his eyes again, and began his practice.
In the sea, Bai Su, who had swiftly dived into the depths, revealed herself. At this moment, her entire Primordial Spirit was red and glowing.
At first, she was undoubtedly against her sister meeting the other person; after all, you can't judge a book by its cover.
Qing'er and she are one body with two souls, meaning that Qing'er is not under her control. Normally, nothing happens, but when Bai Su senses a hint of danger and decides to improve her strength, she will fall into deep cultivation. However, the lively and active Qing'er obviously won't do that. As a result, the next day, Qing'er woke up and immediately ran to find the monk.
Originally, after finishing her cultivation and waking up, Bai Su felt a little guilty about what happened yesterday and planned to apologize to her younger sister. After all, her sister was just a child. Back then, the two of them were one body with two souls, and their bodies could not bear it. Qing'er chose to sleep until her body could accommodate two souls before she woke up. Therefore, she both liked and loved her younger sister.
And wow, wow, wow!
As soon as she woke up, she nestled in Li Su again.
And this time it wasn't a snake's body, but Qing'er's Primordial Spirit lying directly in Li Su's arms.
They are twins, which is very special. Therefore, even when her younger sister is asleep, she can still control her Primordial Spirit.
In an instant, Bai Su's face turned as red as a big apple.
Thank God, ever since she realized the difference between men and women and learned about human culture, she no longer dared to snuggle in a man's arms, and even when she spoke to him, she kept a distance of more than two meters.
Although outsiders say she's aloof, it's not that simple; she's actually shy, extremely shy.
Especially that bastard Uncle Zhang, he kept telling her that all men are wolves in sheep's clothing and that they only get close to her because they want her body. He said that only her uncle was doing it for her own good and wanted to introduce her to his son.
Faced with this result, Bai Su almost strangled her younger sister. Her once sweet and caring daughter had turned into a piece of shoddy cotton from a certain factory, constantly sabotaging her sister.
She was a young, unmarried woman, and she woke up to find herself nestled in a man's arms, her arms wrapped around his neck. What kind of situation was this? Luckily, he treated her like his younger sister, and his eyes were fixed on her like those of a daughter.
Thinking of this, Bai Su couldn't help but dig her fair big toe into the ground. I, Bai Su, the number one beauty of the Spirit Snake Clan, ranked among the top five in the Earth Immortal Realm, what kind of eyes does this man have!
Well, even if she's a beautiful snake, you really can't guess what a girl is thinking.
Hmm!
After the shame reached its peak, Bai Su calmed down, then smacked her lips and sipped the candy the other person had fed her.
tasty!
It's like the fruit of Tao itself, captivating people and making them want to linger and become completely absorbed in it.
Everyone knows that incense is poisonous!
Why is it poisonous? Because of the power of wishes, the wishes of all beings, carrying prayers and thoughts. Consuming too much of it will have an effect on them, hence the term "poisonous"!
Therefore, both Daoism and Buddhist Sect try their best to avoid being poisoned by this stuff.
Corresponding solutions were devised for each case.
The Daoist sect uses the concept of "cloning," meaning that members of the sect can essentially manifest countless forms to avoid being afflicted by deadly poisons.
Buddhist Sect cultivate great vows, remaining unaffected by incense offerings, and instead influencing them, transforming their own thoughts into those of others, and thus inspiring others to follow them.
The Pure Land Buddha Kingdom is a typical example; it is a paradise that all Bliss beings aspire to.
Li Su Suxiu practices Theravada Buddhism, seeking to liberate himself. His Buddha Land is merely a personal kingdom, not a kingdom for all sentient beings, but this does not change the fact that his Buddhist power contains the power of vows.
Of course, his Buddha Land is fundamentally different from most Buddhas' idea of eternal life for those who believe in him; rather, it is a yearning for a better world and his pursuit of the Tao.
However, it is still poisonous.
He makes people feel good about him, want to get closer to him, and can't help but want to explore the ways of the world with him.
Therefore, this thing is extremely poisonous, especially for women who are single-mindedly pursuing the Dao. For example, Bai Su, who has little desire for love and romance and is focused on cultivation, is extremely poisonous, even more so than the Dao Heart Demon-Planting Technique.
From feeling completely overwhelmed on the first day to starting to find candy delicious on the fourth day, it's been a huge change.
Under normal circumstances, the Bai Su would have been spat out immediately and then checked for toxicity.
He's a decent person; at least his eyes, devoid of desire, make him someone you can communicate with.
Although the fact that she always woke up in his arms made her somewhat resentful, it was alright. She would eventually be separated from her sister. Then her sister could continue to nestle in his arms as his daughter, while she would simply be his fellow Daoist, discussing the Great Dao and pursuing the truth of the world together. As for why she was to be his daughter instead of his wife, that's worth mentioning...
Thankfully, the next day he had forced his sister to swear an oath by holding her Primordial Spirit in his hand, promising not to reveal that she and he were one soul. Otherwise, he would have been truly ashamed.
However, that monk has such high comprehension. My sister's Dao traces can basically be considered the fundamental law, right? They are one body with two souls. If the little girl cultivates it, it's equivalent to her cultivating it.
I've really incurred a huge favor now; I need to find a way to repay it.
Another night and a day have passed.
So, it's been ten days since I arrived in Ninghai Town.
Li Su opened her eyes, looking at the moon already beginning to set in the west. She had been in this world for almost ten years. "Senior sister, do you feel empty, lonely, or cold?"
I kind of miss the wives from Twin Dragons, especially Wanwan, who could unlock any position and play with you.
Yes, we need to find a way to rescue them as soon as possible. The main thing is that with her, not only can we unlock super positions, but we can also unlock them with Yu Yan and the others. Women are the same as men in this respect; if our compatriots can do it, we can definitely do it too. Even if it's incredibly shameful, we can still do it.
The little girl woke up and snuggled in his arms again for another day.
Li Su reached out and gently patted the other's head, asking softly, "Are you awake?"
The little girl paused for a moment, then nodded.
"I'm leaving!"
"Be very careful when you're alone in the future, understand?"
Walk?
Bai Su was stunned, looking at Li Su with confusion.
Li Su smiled, though she didn't think the other person would understand, and said anyway, "It's time to deliver the Buddhist treasures. If I have the chance, I'll come again and cook you something delicious."
Bai Su was stunned for a moment, and then realized that she seemed to have forgotten something. After a while, she suddenly remembered that she was currently in World Fragment. Her purpose in coming to Ninghai was to go to Jinhua to kill the Thousand-Year Tree Demon and devour its demon heart.
Good heavens, truly good heavens, they've completely forgotten their original purpose.
In an instant, the Bai Su Primordial Spirit within the physical body involuntarily emitted green smoke, and the entire Primordial Spirit turned pink.
She took a breath, withdrew Qing'er's Primordial Spirit, and returned to her original form as a small white-blue snake, which shrank directly to Li Su's left hand, forming a circle that wrapped around Li Su's arm.
Li Su was taken aback by her actions and was about to say something.
As a result, the little snake shut down all five senses and cut off its connection with the outside world. Of course, it wasn't that it didn't want to listen to the turtle's chanting, but it was just too damn shy, especially about how it was used to being held by Li Su.
Li Su's lips twitched. Was he being framed? Oh well, whether he could beat them or not was another matter. Protecting the little snake shouldn't be a problem. He thought for a moment and left a message on the spot.
The gist of it is that I'll take the little guy with me for a while and return him soon.
Li Su turned around and walked directly towards the town.
******
Soon after entering the town, the sky brightened, and the dawn began to set.
Not far away, Chan Master Baiyun strolled towards him with a smile on his face and a Buddhist shrine in his hand.
Huh?
Where is the Ten Directions monk Shifang?
Li Su was taken aback. She hadn't found any trace of Ten Directions. Had he gone to relieve himself? What bad timing.
"Senior, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
"It's alright. The road ahead is fraught with danger, and no amount of preparation is too much."
Sure enough, they're heading towards Jinhua. Li Su's eyes showed confusion. Was this a case of knowingly walking into danger?
"By the way, senior, where's Ten Directions? I haven't seen him."
"Oh, I took him home."
Li Su was stunned. They sent him back? Back where?
"Nephew Fahai, you faced the tree demon, didn't you? And you injured it?"
"Yes, that's right."
Chan Master Baiyun pondered for a moment and said, "In that case, the tree demon has probably already memorized your aura, and the Black Mountain Demon will likely be keeping a close watch on you as well."
Li Su nodded. That's right. Once the other side senses him, it will probably be the start of a great battle.
But it's alright, we're going to slay demons anyway, so let the battle rage on.
" Fahai, the tree demon is easy to deal with, but the Black Mountain Demon is undoubtedly a huge problem. Even if the two of us join forces, we probably wouldn't be a match for him," said Chan Master Baiyun.
"So powerful?" Li Su was somewhat surprised, but then he remembered the Black Mountain Demon from the movie, who was also very powerful. At least if it weren't for the fact that the demon had the weakness of being in the sunlight, the group led by Chan Master Baiyun would have been wiped out.
"Therefore, Nephew Fahai, this humble monk would like to ask you for a favor!"
"Please speak frankly, senior!"
"This humble monk has a method that can transform my disciple Fahai into his appearance. In this way, your magical power and realm will be completely concealed. Unless the Black Mountain Demon touches you personally, he will not be able to detect any flaws."
"At the same time, my junior disciple must make some concessions and try his best to maneuver, pretending to be an ordinary mortal to avoid being discovered by the two demons, thus buying more time for the power of the Buddhist treasure to permeate Jinhua..."
Li Su was stunned, her eyes widening involuntarily. "Ha, I've become Ten Directions???"
That's bad enough, but to pretend to be an ordinary mortal? Recalling Ten Directions and Xiaoqian's experiences, Li Su was dumbfounded. What kind of bizarre turn of events was this?
Is this going to turn into the Fahai?
Suddenly, Li Su had an idea. Was he supposed to impersonate Ten Directions? Pretend to be an ordinary person? In other words, Shi Ten Directions's original purpose was to delay those two old monsters? To give them the impression that as long as they targeted the young monk, they could eventually wear down the old monk?
Well done, you old monk! I thought you were all so serious, but you've got the whole situation under control, haven't you? Come to think of it, with your level of cultivation, how could you not notice your disciple's situation? And yet you always ask so seriously... are you collecting embarrassing secrets?
Li Su glanced at the old monk and immediately sensed that he harbored ill intentions.
