Journey to the West: I, the Dragon Prince of the East China Sea, worship Bodhi

Chapter 27 A Tree
On Fangcun Mountain, Patriarch Bodhi looked down at the "earth" he created.

That is not actually the real earth.

The three-star cave on the oblique moon, and the square inch mountain of Lingtai.The dojo of Patriarch Bodhi, even the "person" of Patriarch Bodhi actually symbolizes "heart", "enlightenment" and "wisdom".

Therefore, the place in Bodhi's eyes is actually a place between reality and illusion.

But this does not mean that what is happening in front of you is false.

At this time, above the land, a 1 zhang green dragon soared into the sky!

That was Ao Qing!
After years of precipitation, Ao Qing has accumulated stone steps to climb to the top of Xiaguang Peak.

And at this moment, it's finally time to fly!

But see, he wears divine light, controls the strong wind, and breaks through the heavy clouds.As if breaking through a maze, he rushed to the top of the peak.

However, when he saw that there was only less than a thousand feet away from the Xiaguang Peak, he was suddenly blocked by a pressure, and his body suddenly slowed down!

Waves of wind, waves and torrents seemed to be turning around at the peak, cutting towards Ao Qing's body like sharp knives.

Although he was patient, he still felt an unimaginable pressure.

It was as if mountains of knives were pressing on top of his head, causing his "body" to rupture!

This is very scary.

You know, Ao Qing is now 1 feet tall, and his scales are as solid as gold and iron, so he is already "invulnerable".

But unexpectedly, he was still injured!
If Ao Qing, who had a dragon body of [-] feet, was here, he might be crushed by this pressure in an instant.

It seems that this second hurdle really cannot be tricked.

Among other things, even if you come here by chance, how can you reach the peak safely?
but.

After so many years of tempering, Ao Qing is no longer what it used to be!
On the Yunshan Mountain, Patriarch Bodhi is pinching his beard with his left hand, and gently shaking the whisk in his right hand.

It seems that at any time, they want to help him.

But in the end, he endured it.

Because he knows that the current Ao Qing is not putting all his eggs in one basket.

Ao Qing will be able to do it, almost to the extreme, not only his body has grown close to the limit, even the rocks that can be seen in the surrounding area have been piled up under this peak.

Therefore, there will be this flight.

As the saying goes: painstaking efforts, the sky does not fail.

How can such perseverance not break through the cloud barrier! ?
In fact, Ao Qing did not disappoint Patriarch Bodhi.

In that high place, he actually forcibly withstood the heavy pressure from the top of his head!

Even though his body was already dripping with blood when he was a hundred feet away from the peak, he still insisted on arriving at the place of Xiaguang!
Up to this point, his energy has been almost exhausted, but his will has not wavered in the slightest.

There was a little appreciation in the eyes of Patriarch Bodhi.

Although what happened in front of him did not exceed his expectations, Ao Qing's performance can indeed be called "bright".

But immediately, the admiration in the eyes of the patriarch disappeared in an instant.

Because, the "third test" that Ao Qing will face will be the final "threshold".

One determines whether Ao Qing is a "cultivator of Taoism" or a "seeker of immortality".

Originally, Patriarch Bodhi did not intend to reveal this kind of threshold so early.

Because cultivating the Tao is not a temporary thing.

It's like Monkey King in "Journey to the West".Patriarch Bodhi is a symbol of "wisdom" and "enlightenment", but in the end, the monkey only learned the magic power of 72 changes and somersaulting clouds when he was with the patriarch.

So he left "Bodhi" and was driven out of Samsung Cave with arrogance and "heart ape".

Originally, Ao Qing should be similar to a monkey.

but.

Now, it was a small accident.

Ao Qing's comprehension and tenacity allowed the patriarch to turn this third test into an inspiration for "Tao Xin".

If he can cross this heavy threshold.

Then...the future will be limitless!

……

……

at this time.

Xiaguang gradually converges.

Ao Qing finally passed the second "mountain" test.

When he reached the peak, he found that there was nothing at the top of Xiaguang Peak.

I don't know where the original Xiaguang has gone.This is not the "Samsung Cave".

Here, it is just a lonely peak.

Surrounded by cliffs, there is no way out, far or near.

Only, in the middle, there is a tree that is not too huge.

The big tree is dark green, exuding a faint light. Its back is green, with a sharp tip and a tail-like extension at the top.

From this tree, one after another surging Yunyin seems to carry the meaning of "emptiness and nature", emanating faintly.

Patriarch Bodhi is not here.Could it be that the "test" is not over yet?

This is the third "test" of the patriarch?
a tree?

Ao Qing couldn't help being a little dazed.

A road, he knows that it is enough to finish it.

A mountain, he knew, just climb over it.

but.

A tree, what must be done to pass the test?

Could it be that?
Ao Qing carefully observed the tree in front of her.

Suddenly, his heart moved.

Ao Qing didn't recognize this tree.However, thinking of the word "Bodhi" in the name of Patriarch Bodhi, he couldn't help but come up with an idea.

Could it be that this tree is...the bodhi tree?

The bodhi tree, originally called the pippala tree.

Legend has it that Sakyamuni, the Buddha, saw his mind and nature under this bodhi tree and became enlightened.Therefore, this tree is named "Bodhi".

And Bodhi means "wisdom" and "enlightenment".

If the tree is really a bodhi tree, then this is the third test.

Maybe... it's a bit of an eyebrow.

Could it be that the meaning of the Patriarch is to make oneself "enlightened"?
Ao Qing paused.

Immediately afterwards, bursts of light radiated from his body, and the Lin Jia began to make the sound of gold and iron rubbing against each other. Gradually, his body began to shrink and shrink.

In an instant, the dragon's body, which was as long as ten thousand feet, became smaller like this, and stopped when it reached about ten feet.

Yes. In the process of tempering his body during the "Crossing the Mountain", Ao Qing not only grew his body, but also stimulated the talent of "growing bigger and smaller" freely, and now he can shrink his body to tens of feet. size up.

After shrinking his body, the bodhi tree just became a little bigger in front of his eyes.

The tree was less than a hundred feet tall, not small in the mortal world, but in Ao Qing's eyes, it was not big either.

He tried to get close to the Bodhi tree.

But at this moment, suddenly, Ao Qing's body felt restless, and in his mind, waves of anxiety and fatigue emerged.

It seems that when you approach the Bodhi tree, you can't help but feel pain and suffering arising from your heart.

What's happening here?
Ao Qing paused, then calmed down and continued to rush forward.

But he found that just ten feet away from the bodhi tree, a huge roar was suddenly evoked from his mind, which made him feel dizzy for a while!
