Apricot of the Great Desolation

Chapter 255: Monkey goes to sea, clouds move in all directions

It has been a hundred years since Huang Chuan Dao was preached. During these hundred years, the overall strength of the entire Primordial World has once again increased.

After Huang and Caishen finished their sermons, they declined Huangtian's invitation and entered the Xuanyuan Realm. After all, although they were human beings, they were also followers of Zhang Ye. In essence, Zhang Ye was their master.

The three Hunyuan deities in the wilderness entered the Holy Land of the Human Race. The long river of humanity rolled and vast divine power surged, and the long river of humanity expanded by three points.

Huang did not teach magical powers, but only spread the secret realm methods he created. Even so, many creatures suddenly increased their combat power, and some even opened up secret realms around them, attained enlightenment, and jumped out of the long river of time and space.

After many years of war in the prehistoric era, countless worlds have been destroyed, and the inheritance and practice methods contained in it are countless.

The sacredness in the prehistoric world has opened up many paths, such as magic, immortality, martial arts, Confucianism, Shinto... and so on.

When it comes to the fastest cultivation speed, it is of course the Demonic Path. If it is about the stable cultivation, it is naturally the Immortal Path.

Confucianism and Taoism enlighten wisdom, using the power of the wisdom soul to connect Haoran's righteousness and wash away the physical body, martial arts tempers the physical will, and Shinto is lawful. Each has its own merits.

The method of Huang's Secret Realm is universally applicable to any living being. It is a complete method and has no conflict with other Tao and can be practiced at the same time.

Because among the Tao that has appeared in the ancient world, none of them opens up the secret realm of the human body. Even though martial arts is also about tempering oneself, it is still different from the secret realm.

Therefore, from a certain perspective, the method of developing secret realms allows some creatures to find a new path and find a path that is different but extremely suitable for them.

Although Huang has preached Tao for a long time, there are still some places where Huang's Tao has not been obtained, such as the saint's dojo, the quasi-sage dojo, or the creatures who are unwilling to listen.

In the human world, at the Huaguo Mountain in Dongsheng Shenzhou, the place was shrouded by a Buddha's light. When Huang was preaching, the elves in the mountain didn't hear anything. They were still living freely and freely.

There is a group of monkeys in the mountains. Perhaps there is abundant spiritual energy in the mountain, and the Tao is manifested. These monkeys are born with spiritual wisdom, and they can be considered a large tribe.

Hundreds of years ago, a special monkey appeared among the monkeys. It emerged from the spiritual stone on the top of the mountain. It was born with infinite power and could observe the heaven and earth. Soon it entered the Water Curtain Cave and was captured. Called the Monkey King.

This luminous stone monkey is gifted with supernatural powers, which is said to be "aware of changes, knowing the time of the sky, knowing the favorable terrain, and moving stars to change battles."

At this time, the prehistoric period has not yet declined. The world is filled with innate spiritual energy, even spiritual energy, and demonic energy. With the stone monkey's innate magical power, he can fully realize Taoism and practice law on his own.

If the stone monkey hadn't been watched by the Buddhist power at all times, suppressing his way of sensing the rhyme, he would have already embarked on the path of spiritual practice.

At this moment, in the Water Curtain Cave, the stone monkey was sitting on a stone seat, watching the monkey monkey Sun playing below, with a bright smile on his face.

At this time, Stone Monkey didn't have much ambition. He just wanted to be a mountain king and play with monkeys and monkeys.

He held a stone cup in his furry hand, which contained the refreshing monkey wine, which was brewed from spiritual fruits in the mountains. If a mortal took a sip, he would at least be able to reach the realm of refining energy and transforming into a god.

But Monkey's accumulation is so deep that he can achieve immortality and immortality in just a hundred years of practice.

To him, this energetic monkey wine is just an ordinary drink.

Suddenly, there was a commotion among the monkeys below. Stone Monkey frowned, but nothing could be seen from his furry face. He roared angrily:
"Roar!"

The appearance of the stone monkey cannot be said to be cute, but it is extremely ferocious. In addition, its strength is infinite, and the sound it roars is also breathtaking.

After the water curtain cave became quiet, the stone monkey asked: "Why are you so panicked?"

An old monkey looked sad and cried: "Your Majesty, he...he is dead!"

Stone Monkey looked stunned, confused, and asked at a loss: "Dead? What is dead?"

"If he dies, he will never be seen again. When his lifespan is over, he will never wake up again. Moreover, his body will slowly rot and turn into a pile of bones!"

The old monkey's voice was sad, and the surrounding atmosphere was also very solemn. All the monkeys were in silence. Even the naughty little monkeys in the past felt that the atmosphere was unusual and stopped talking.

The stone monkey understood at this time. He looked at the frozen old monkey with a sad smile on his face.

He didn't know why the old monkey died, but he understood that he would never see the old monkey again.

Moreover, he also thought of more things. Will he die in the future?If he dies, will he not be able to see these monkeys and grandchildren?Can I never drink monkey wine again?
Stone Monkey was very innocent at this time and just said whatever he wanted. He asked the old monkey in front of him directly.

"All living things must die, and none of us can avoid it!" The old monkey's tone was full of sadness.

"How can I not die?" Stone Monkey asked again, with urgency in his voice.

The old monkey suddenly got stuck. How did he know?He was just a monkey in Huaguo Mountain. He had never even been to Aolai Country, which was not far away. How could he know this?
But then, an invisible divine light flashed, and the old monkey seemed to suddenly have an enlightenment. Everything became clear to him. He said:

"Your Majesty, there are five people in this world who will not enter reincarnation and will not be under the jurisdiction of the King of Hell."

"Oh? Those are the five, come quickly!" Shi Hou couldn't wait and asked directly.

"It is gods, Buddhas, immortals, demons, and demons. These five have the same lifespan as the heaven and the earth, and the sun and the moon have the same age."

The stone monkey was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly asked: "Where should we look for these five people?"

The old monkey felt messages coming into his mind one after another at this time, and he felt an urgent need to speak out. He continued:
"Of course there are no such immortals in Huaguo Mountain. If the king really wants to live forever, maybe he should go overseas and give it a try!"

When the stone monkey heard this, he immediately patted the table and shouted: "Okay, children, quickly prepare the sails and pick fruits for food. I will go to sea tomorrow and I must learn a way to live forever." Technique!"

The many monkeys below were overjoyed and immediately dispersed. Those who made sails made sails and those who picked fruits picked fruits.

The next day, Stone Monkey stood on the bamboo raft on the beach, looking at the many monkeys who came to see him off with regret in his eyes.

The monkeys' eyes were extremely complex, with reluctance, anxiety, worry, and ardent hope.

They hope that the stone monkey can obtain the method of immortality. After all, if one person achieves enlightenment, the chicken and the dog will ascend to heaven, and the stone monkey will live forever, it will naturally protect them and find ways to make them live forever.

Also afraid that Shihou would never come back and die outside, Shihou then spoke:

"Children, don't send me away. I'm leaving now. You can take care of Huaguo Mountain when you are ready!"

"My lord, be careful!"

"If nothing can be done, the king can just come back. I don't want to wait for this way of immortality!"

Among the monkeys seeing him off on the shore, some of them had lived for hundreds of years.Immediately, the stone monkey propped up the bamboo pole, rowed forward, and disappeared in the vast sea in a short time.

……

In the Immortal World, on the shores of the East China Sea, within the Holy Land of the Human Race, Huangtian holds the Kongtong Seal in his hand, and there is a projection on it, which is exactly the scene of the stone monkey going out to the sea.

Huang Tian glanced around, his martial arts will condensed into a line, stretching towards the unknown place in the void.

.........

In the Demon Realm, a dark hall stands on the plains of the wilderness. It is irregular in shape and extremely huge. It looks like a giant beast lying on the wilderness.

In the main hall, a bald boy wearing a white monk's robe was incompatible with the deep and dark environment.

He has red lips and white teeth, clear eyebrows, and a black lotus pattern between his eyebrows. The twelve skull-shaped rosary beads in his hand rotate slowly, releasing endless demonic power from them.

"Shasheng, haven't you always wanted to avenge Kinnara? Now that the opportunity has come, do you dare to go to the Buddhist Lingshan Mountain?" Jidu said with a smile.

There was a red light flashing in Shasheng's eyes, with a little bit of golden light in it. His face was soft and his tone was gentle:
"Recently, there is another rising star in Buddhism. His name is Sakyamuni. He has reached the level of Daluo. It is said that he is being trained as the next successor of Buddhism. It's time to go and see this fellow Taoist Sakyamuni!"

Shasheng's tone was very gentle, as if he was talking about an ordinary thing, nothing to make a fuss about.

But what he said was shocking. That was Sakyamuni, a being who was cultivated by Buddhism as the next Buddha. He was already a great Luo cultivator.

Ji Du was speechless and laughed loudly and said: "That's how it should be. The former Buddhist disciple versus the current Buddhist disciple is truly an unprecedented battle!"

……

In the God Realm, on the 33rd level of the sky, the Yaochi water is gurgling, the immortal energy is floating, the spiritual energy is dense, the divine flowers are blooming, and the immortal light is bright.

In the middle of Yaochi, Haotian sat on the cloud platform, sighed softly, secretly connected with the way of heaven, and temporarily concealed the secret of the stone monkey in the name of the emperor of heaven.

Then he stopped taking action. Being able to do this was certainly not his limit, but there were many creatures in the world who could do this, and Buddhism had no way of finding them.

After all, Haotian has not yet attained enlightenment, and he will not easily enmity with a saint unless absolutely necessary.

Haotian originally did not intend to participate in this matter, but Huangtian gave too much, and he offered a price that Haotian could not refuse.

Next to her, Yaochi did not dissuade Haotian this time, but worked together with Haotian to cover up the secret. Without him, Huangtian's price made her moved.

In the Emperor Wa's sky, a line of cause and effect appeared in Nuwa's hand, which submerged into the space and was faintly connected to the human world.

The power of creation emerged, and the line of cause and effect in Nuwa's hand gradually disappeared.

At the same time, the stone monkey unknowingly deviated from its original trajectory, but strangely, another stone monkey walked along the original trajectory.

As for the four-level merits in the sky, the Five Directions revealed their meanings, and Liu Ding Liujia found no abnormalities at all.

……

On the Lingshan Mountain, the gas of incense and fire evolved various strange phenomena, the voices of the Buddhas murmuring and chanting resounded on the Lingshan Mountain, the clouds and mist curled up, and the spiritual energy was dense.

On this day, a special monk came to Lingshan Mountain. He was dressed in white monk robes and looked very gentle, but the black lotus pattern between his eyebrows gave him a somewhat evil temperament.

In the main hall, Ran Deng and the Buddhas all had ugly expressions. Naturally, they could tell at a glance that this was a powerful practitioner of the devil's path, but they didn't know why they came to Lingshan.

He did not care about the thoughts of the Buddhas when he killed living beings. He grew lotuses step by step and walked towards the spiritual mountain.

But what came out was a black lotus, crystal clear and dazzling, with streaks of evil energy flowing on the petals, and the black lotus shone, and it actually had a sacred meaning!
As he walked, he recited sutras, and the murmurs spread all around, but the murmurs of sutras did not have the same holy and purifying function as in the past.

On the contrary, it gave people a strange feeling, and the muttering continued. The first people on the Lingshan Mountain to be unable to hold on were some monks and nuns with a slightly lower level.

Under the chanting of killing, their faces gradually distorted, and cruelty, greed, lust, etc. emerged from the bottom of their hearts.

The Buddhas on the Lingshan Mountain could clearly see that what the visitor was reciting was a demonic sutra, but it did not contain a trace of magic power.

Moreover, the magic scripture has not been tampered with in any way, and it is a pure and complete method of demon cultivation.

The most important thing is that they discovered that this magic sutra is vaguely similar to the Buddhist sutra, and some of its contents are almost identical. Moreover, the Buddhist dharma in these bhikkhus and nuns has actually become the nourishment of magic.

This makes them dare not use Buddha's light to disperse the demonic scriptures, for fear of allowing them to continue to grow.

When it comes to cultivating souls, the first practice is generally based on the methods developed by predecessors, following in the footsteps of their predecessors.

As the level of walking becomes higher and higher, you will naturally have your own ideas and make your own path from the path of those who came before you.

Therefore, on the Lingshan Mountain, the Dharma of these monks and nuns is the most pure. This is why those monks and nuns are the first to be unable to bear it.

Seeing that the chanting of killing has affected some Arhats, Ran Deng could no longer sit still. He ignored his face and did not talk about martial ethics. He only heard a Buddha's chant that resounded through Lingshan:
"Amitabha!"

The sound was like morning bells and evening drums, shocking the heartstrings. The entire Lingshan suddenly became quiet. With a wave of Ran Deng's palm, endless Buddha light poured into the bodies of each Buddhist disciple, eliminating all evil intentions.

The Buddha's light chopped off all the demonic scriptures, but the remaining demonic intention allowed those monks and nuns to advance their Dharma to a higher level.

Then, Shasheng suddenly appeared in the Mahavira Hall. Some of the Buddhas had angry expressions on their faces, some looked compassionate, and some were very carefree and at ease. They were all staring at Shasheng closely at this time.

He was not afraid of killing. He put his hands together, bowed to the Buddhas, and said with a smile:
"Everyone, I haven't seen you for endless years, are you all well?"

After hearing this, all the Buddhas became confused. Have they seen it before?
At this time, Upalatha Buddha suddenly opened his eyes wide and said in disbelief: "Wu Ming, you are Wu Ming!!"

Hearing this, the whole Lingshan was stunned for a moment, wondering who Wuming was, but then there was an uproar, it turned out to be Wuming!Wasn’t Wuming dead long ago?
The smile on Shasheng's face did not change. He bowed to Upalatha Buddha and said, "The poor monk Shasheng has met the Lord Upalatha!"

As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the entire Daxiong Palace, which meant that Wuming had completely broken away from the past and entered the demon sect.

Ran Deng's expression remained unchanged, and he asked, "I wonder why Fellow Taoist Shasheng came to Lingshan!"

"A poor monk kills living beings, come to Lingshan to kill living beings!!"
