Dabei's words made Abbot Jingxuan raise his eyebrows slightly, then he looked at him and slowly said, "Do you feel you've gone against my wishes?"
Dabei nodded. "At first, I didn't think so, and I didn't even think about it in that direction. I was immersed in the expectations of the abbot and the other abbots and kept thinking about breaking through. Now, after being reminded, I realize that I have gone against the grain."
"It is precisely because I have figured this out that my long-held state of mind is now showing signs of loosening."
One's state of mind and State of Mind do not lie.
Moreover, it's Buddhism, which emphasizes understanding and state of State of Mind.
Abbot Jingxuan nodded slightly and said, "Very well, hand over the Power of Faith."
Dabei's heart sank. This statement undoubtedly implicitly acknowledged that what Buddhist Sect is doing now is indeed the case.
He then knelt down, clasped his hands together before Abbot Jingxuan, and said, "Abbot, what does not belong to me must naturally be handed over, but the Buddhist Sect truly cannot continue like this; it has already violated Buddhist Sect teachings!"
Abbot Jingxuan looked at Dabei, who sat cross-legged on a futon facing the golden Buddha. With his hands clasped together and eyes closed, he said calmly, "How can one have it all in this world? If Buddhist Sect wants to become stronger and seize the opportunity to rise in this great struggle, it must increase its strength."
"How can you improve your strength without paying a price?"
With a Dabei look in his eyes, Da Bei recalled Ning Chenxin's words and repeated, "If a Bodhisattva has the marks of self, person, sentient being, or life span, then he is not a Bodhisattva..."
Abbot Jingxuan suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Dabei.
Dabei and said, "That's what that benefactor said."
"It seems he is also one of the main protagonists in this great struggle..." Abbot Jingxuan nodded slightly. "That statement does make sense, but it also depends on the applicable situation and context."
"But..." Dabei.
But Abbot Jingxuan raised his hand to interrupt, "However, we have reached the final stage. Whether Buddhist Sect can rise to a higher level and secure a place in this great struggle depends on this matter."
" Buddhist Sect is inherently detached from worldly affairs, so why should it strive for a higher status?"
"In this Immortal Realm of cultivation, if you don't fight, you'll only be at the mercy of others!" Abbot Jingxuan's voice rose slightly, yet it shook hundreds and thousands of Buddha Mountain!
"Alright, no need for further words. I was thinking of letting you go down the mountain, but I realized there's no time. I'll just have to make do with this." Abbot Jingxuan looked at Dabei, and his palm suddenly fell down. A golden bell suddenly appeared above Dabei's head, and then it fell down, enveloping him!
At the same time, above the clock, streams of Power of Faith were drawn out.
"You should reflect on this carefully. We'll release you once you've come to your senses. After all, Buddhist Sect still needs you." Abbot Jingxuan waved his hand slightly, and several elderly men in kasaya robes appeared around the golden bell.
They exchanged a glance, nodded slightly, and then sat cross-legged around the large bell, beginning to chant Buddhist scriptures.
Dabei was about to say something, but after hearing the Buddhist chants echoing from all directions, his expression changed, and he immediately sat down cross-legged with a resolute look on his face!
These Buddhist sayings, at this moment, were like the whispers of Evil God, influencing the mind of the Dabei.
Dabei suddenly remembered that Ning Chenxin had said that there might be people in the Buddhist Sect who could manipulate and influence the minds of mortals.
This is probably related to that as well.
Thinking of this, Dabei was filled with sorrow. The Buddhist Sect had changed... But even so, it was necessary to purify and change it!
As long as we can get through this.
Meanwhile, Ning Chenxin returned to the Mortal Realm a few days later and entered the Fusheng Diagram.
Mr. Lu Changsheng was also among them at that moment.
Upon seeing Ning Chenxin and sensing the surge in his cultivation level and the immense, Vast Righteous Qi emanating from him, he couldn't help but nod slightly.
It seems Ning Chenxin.
Lu Changsheng stepped forward and said, "It's alright, at least we didn't cause any trouble."
I was worried before, but now I can finally relax.
He was so afraid he might run to the Buddhist Sect to unleash the Nine Nether Yellow Springs Grand Array... or even drop a nuclear bomb.
Ning Chenxin timely retorted, "No, Master, it's just that my status makes it inappropriate for me to interfere. Someone in the Buddhist Sect sect is already doing it. I'll only intervene when they fail."
Lu Changsheng: "..."
Thank you for being so considerate of me.
Having you is truly my blessing...
A thousand words stuck in his throat, and in the end, all he could do was shake his head and mutter, "Damn it."
Hmm, that feels much better.
Indeed, the simplest form of foul language is the ultimate enjoyment.
Ning Chenxin was stunned for a moment, then asked incredulously, "Master... what did you say?"
"It's nothing," Lu Changsheng waved his hand and said, "I was just asking if you've eaten."
"... I didn't eat."
"It's good that you haven't eaten. Let your senior brother make some."
Ye Qiubai, who was instructing Hao Tian Mu Shi not far away, suddenly stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
If Lu Changsheng weren't his master, Ye Qiubai would also want to enjoy a good verbal sparring session right now...
Next.
The disciples of Cottage spent part of their time cultivating themselves and the other part of their time training the students who participated in the academy's exchange programs.
Over the past two years.
Hong Ying also officially announced that she could no longer challenge, and the top 10 to 4 contestants were finally determined.
This includes Mu Ziqing and Hao Tian.
Both of them have made the most progress in the past two years.
After absorbing the Mysterious Ice Spirit Rhinoceros Bamboo, Mu Ziqing stepped directly from the Mid-Stage God Lord Realm to the Mid God Emperor Realm, and at the same time, her bloodline power surged!
Hao Tian, on the other hand, has entered the Early God Emperor Realm, Sword Dao has reached the threshold of the Sword Dao Law.
The other two, one of whom is named Zong Yun, is Half-Step God Emperor.
And... Ji Qianyao.
Indeed, after telling her master Ji Liuzhi that she would not inherit Jade Lake Immortal Palace, Ji Qianyao turned around and joined Azure Firmament Academy, where she also participated in the selection process.
At the moment when immortal Immortal Qi revived in the Mortal Realm, her cultivation level soared rapidly, thanks to the Hongmeng Purple Qi!
He actually broke through to the Peak God Emperor Realm!
This is quite normal, though. The Hongmeng Purple Qi is something from the very beginning of the universe; the Power of Rules is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.
It can be said that Zong Yun and Ji Qianyao seized the opportunity of the changes in the Mortal Realm.
Three substitutes.
Ye Qiubai, Hong Ying, and the others decided to give the Xiaoshu to Mu Shi, and Xu Meng.
Although they had just undergone a blood transfusion and entered the Late Turbid Immortal Realm.
However, the change in personnel has greatly broadened their talents and potential.
That's why I decided to take them out to see the world, to broaden their future path.
There are only six months left.
During this time, Ye Qiubai and the others planned to ask their master to personally instruct and guide these four.
It took three whole days to persuade Lu Changsheng.
After much pleading and cajoling, and by preparing five meals a day in various ways for Lu Changsheng, she finally succeeded.
Finally, they calmed her down.
While shoveling rice into his mouth, Lu Changsheng mumbled, "Let me make it clear beforehand, I was absolutely not bribed by these meals. It's just that I think they have potential, so I'm willing to casually teach them a bit... Who steamed this fish? It smells delicious."
=============
P. S.: There's one more chapter. I really haven't slept and have stayed up until now. It's a turning point, and I've been thinking about it for a long time. My brain is completely dulled.
After I finish writing these five chapters, I'll continue writing the two chapters from today.
