Chapter 327 Buddhists in Suffering
Xun Shaoyu's 12 top elite divisions, without even touching the threshold of Taoist level, are undoubtedly very different in strength from this [Wu Gou Divine Weapon].

However, it was precisely because of this huge disparity in strength that when Xun Shaoyu took the lead in shouting the slogan "Four Great Hatreds", so many people in the Lu Kingdom were excited.

Although the Lu State was a large country in Yuzhou, the overthrow of Nanyang Yeting did not break the backbone of the people of the Lu State. It also made millions of people in the Lu State feel demoralized and no longer had the mentality of a big country in the past.

Therefore, when Xun Shaoyu shouted the slogan of "cruel thieves and rebels", he took the first step and captured the hearts and minds of more than a majority of the people of Lu.

Xun Shaoyu's 12 top elite troops were so majestic that their army was filled with bloody evil energy for hundreds of miles, almost condensed into substance, causing all the monsters and monsters along the way to flee.

He carried such an army with him all the way, and the hundreds of thousands of southern troops were overwhelming. They impressively marched down 21 small towns in a row, and saw millions of people from all over the country rushing to greet them.

The southern army's conquest also made all the knowledgeable people in Lu State tremble with fear. They were afraid that before the external humiliation was over, several princes and princes would kill each other first.

After all, Xun Shaoyu marched in no hurry and took all the land he occupied as his own, turning it into a part of his own strength. It was obvious that the drunkard's intention was not in the wine.

Under the coercion of hundreds of thousands of troops, few people dared to defend the city. At least the army waved under the city light, but the courage of the defenders was lost. The seven points scored were also disappointing.

However, as the southern army that was the first to speak out for the people of the country, it did gain the trust of the people of the Lu country.Many people in the country believed that the southern army was the last backbone of the people of Lu, so many talented people came to join the southern army in droves, adding some help to the growth of the southern army.

Just as the southern army was advancing in full swing, Lord Gaoyang's son Ze, Lord Dingwen's son Yang, and other young men who aspired to the throne also prepared their own responses.

…………

Ruins of Nanyang!

Due to the tragic death of hundreds of thousands of people, the lingering aura of decline is entrenched in this capital.Among the ubiquitous signs of decay, there are still ghostly winds and howling, and the yin energy is coming and going, just like a place at the end of life.

At some point, a peaceful-looking monk stepped forward, carrying a boundless and unpredictable Buddhist aura, like the vast ocean.

I saw a string of white jade Buddha beads hanging around the monk's neck, and a splendid cassock with seven treasures on his body. He was covered in Buddha's light and slowly chanted. Every step he took, there were golden lotuses swaying.

Above the dense void, the golden light of the golden lotus flows, and slowly blooms volumes of Buddhist scriptures. The Zen sound in them is long and deep, turning the surrounding area into a glazed Buddhist realm.

The seven treasures appear in the void, and gold, silver, glass, coral, clam, red pearl, and agate evolve into a pure land of Buddha, and immeasurable light is bred from the pure land of Buddha.

"Amitabha!!"

In an instant, three thousand Buddhist chants rang out in unison at this moment. The monk's seven-treasure cassock was embellished with divine light, and a quiet and peaceful atmosphere filled the heaven and earth.

The vision manifested by this monk is extremely astonishing. It contains majestic light energy, like an eternal Buddha, enlightening all living beings in the world.

You must know that in the four realms of the main world where suffering gathers and Taoism is destroyed, there are few Buddhist and Taoist masters in the place of suffering, and among them, there are even fewer Buddhist masters, which can be called the extinction of Buddhism and Taoism.

And this Buddhist monk came to the ruins of Nanyang and revealed the magnificent Dharma. His magical power must not be underestimated, and he must also bear a lot of influence.

After all, in the vast void universe and the boundless heavens and realms, Buddhism is one of the most powerful forces.The Buddha, the Taoist, and the Demonic Ancestor are all supreme beings with great supernatural powers, and they are supreme existences that surpass all fates in the past and present. They are unknowable and indisputable.

Therefore, in the main world of Yuzhou, although there are few great Buddhist bodhisattvas and great Arhats appearing in the world, this does not damage their illustrious reputation in the slightest.And the Buddhist masters who can gain a foothold on the land of suffering must at least have the Buddhist practice of Arahantship, and they are great figures who can be called the first-level immortals on the earth.Among them, there are even some top figures who have attained the level of the Great Arhat's Golden Body, which is comparable to those who have refined the true form of an immortal deity.

"Namo Amitabha, everyone in the world is suffering, why should all sentient beings deserve it!" The monk's body was covered with hazy Buddha light, and his Buddhist 'Divine Foot Power' was extremely brilliant. He could cross a thousand feet in one step, but in just a few dozen steps, more than ten thousand golden lotus flowers bloomed. It's like a Buddha descending into the world to save lives.

"The members of the Gong family have arrogantly become princes. Once they have done evil, the evil consequences are not far away." He looked at the scorched earth beneath his feet that had lost all vitality. He slowly clasped his palms together, the Buddha's light looming on his face, and a 'swastika' symbol flashing on his chest. Huaguang.

"The grievances of hundreds of thousands of beings have not dissipated, and all the noble lords and kingdoms have turned into the domain of Asuras. It is sad, deplorable, pitiful, and pitiful!"

When the monk bowed his head, he whispered: "The poor hundreds of thousands of ghosts have no place to stay. They are not allowed to join the reincarnation of heaven and earth. They stay in the mortal world. As time goes by, they will definitely cause disaster."

"It's a pity that the poor monk has not yet attained the golden body of the great Arahant, and has not mastered the Dharma. Even if he sacrifices his whole life to practice the Arahant fruit, he cannot save hundreds of thousands of ghost souls. He can only watch countless ghost souls fall into the endless hell, and then return to the eternal hell. The true nature of living beings is no longer true." The monk looked at the countless souls sinking into the sea of ​​suffering, with a trace of compassion in his eyes.

The Buddhist Arahant is similar to the Taoist immortals. As long as the Arahant goes one step further and becomes a golden Arahant, he will be a great achiever who can be compared with the Taoist gods.

This monk showed mercy in his eyes, witnessing the countless souls of wronged people devouring each other. The scene around him seemed like Avici Hell, with ghostly flames running around. He said softly and slowly: "My Buddha is merciful. My disciple Kumara is in a state of suffering, and I have seen all the suffering." Even if all sentient beings are suffering, I will save all sentient beings immeasurably, and even if I enter the endless hell, I will have no regrets about my original intention."

"I have heard that. At one time, the Buddha was in the Trayasa Heaven, teaching the Dharma for his mother. At that time, all the indescribable Buddhas and great Bodhisattvas and Mahasattvas in the immeasurable worlds of the ten directions came to assemble. They praised Sakyamuni Buddha for his ability to In the evil world of the five turbidities, the power of inconceivable great wisdom and supernatural powers appears, subdues strong living beings, knows the laws of suffering and happiness, and sends attendants to inquire about the World Honored One."

This is called the "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra", which is one of the eight great enlightened Bodhisattvas in Buddhism, Namo Great Vow Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra.

The monk sat cross-legged, the earth suddenly cracked, and a lotus flower platform rose up under the seat. As his lips opened and closed gently, the fine sound of Buddha floated from the sky, the sky sprinkled fragrant rain, and white orchids bloomed on the earth.

"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Fundamental Vows Sutra" has a total of 46 words, which can be described as pearls of words.

When each word emerges, a radiant light shines in the sky, which contains all the thoughts of a person who is waiting for enlightenment, saving hundreds of thousands of ghosts in the ruins of Nanyang.

Hundreds of thousands of ghosts were baptized by the Buddha's light, and they all bowed to Kumarajiva who was sitting cross-legged. A little bit of incense and aspiration gathered together, and a golden body with three heads and eight arms condensed in the void.

Countless ghosts and ghosts looked at the virtual image of Kumarajiva's Pure Land. Their empty and pale pupils revealed a look of longing and longing, and a desire to take refuge in the Pure Land of Buddhism suddenly arose.

At that time, Kumarajiva will cast a golden body with the wishes of hundreds of thousands of ghost souls, and these ghost souls can also be taken into the pure land of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Buddha land, baptized in the water of eight merits one by one, and transformed into the sand of the Ganges River in Buddhism. one.

"Bah!!!"

Suddenly, a violent shout echoed from the heaven and the earth, and a surge of majestic qi and blood was as strong as spring thunder, exuding boundless yang and harmony.

In an instant, it swept across hundreds of miles of Nanyang. The ghosts cried and howled in shock. Hundreds of thousands of ghosts fled in all directions. It was almost as if the earth was shaking and the mountains were shaking.

A middle-aged man dressed in coarse linen clothes walked out from the depths of the Ruins of Nanyang. His body was filled with incredible energy and blood. Every moment he seemed to be erupting like a volcano, roasting the air and waves to the extreme. Hot.

"Bold, an Arhat... dares to touch the souls of our Nine Provinces human race, where are the kings of our Nine Provinces?" The middle-aged man's brows were full of coldness, and the terrifying aura made the earth's crust tremble.

"Where are the kings of my nine provinces!!"

The domineering spirit of this middle-aged man made the ruins of Zhouzai rumble, and the terrifying pressure fell heavily, carrying a lawless madness.

"Amitabha!!"

Kumarajiva looked at the scene of Zhouzai Buddha Kingdom, which collapsed when the middle-aged man drank. Hundreds of thousands of ghosts lost their restraints and boiled again. A touch of anger finally appeared in his clear eyes.

However, Kumarajiva looked at the middle-aged man's appearance and hesitated for a moment. He obviously recognized the middle-aged man and knew his identity.

The monk clasped his palms together, suppressed the anger in his heart, saluted the middle-aged man, and said: "Poor monk, Kumarajiva under the throne of Emperor Baoguang has seen the human king!"

With the ascetic practices of an Arahant, Kumarajiva is already a high-ranking figure in Buddhism in a state of suffering. How could he not recognize who the middle-aged man is.And with the arrogant and domineering middle-aged man, he is definitely qualified to make Kumara suppress the anger in his heart.

After all, this middle-aged man is one of the 72 ancient human kings, a big figure in the Taoist level... Di Gange!

A terrifying figure at the level of a human king, one of the best among gods and humans. Although Kumarajiva has great supernatural powers, he is only a junior figure in front of this human king.

Di Gangge looked at Kumara indifferently, sneered dismissively and said, "Emperor Baoguang? Are you going to use him to suppress me?"

"However, one of the 24 Heavenly Lords of the Buddhist sect, a great figure in the Taoist and Fruition levels, has actually risen to the rank of Emperor Yin of the Yin Dynasty, and has been consecrated as an imperial master. You Buddhist sect is really capable!"

boom--

There was a thunderous explosion between heaven and earth, shaking the gravel on the ground, and a hint of ridicule appeared on Di Gange's cold face.

The malice in these words was not concealed, and it really made Kumara's heart skip a beat, and he had to be deeply worried about the plight of Buddhism in this difficult situation.

After all, with the vastness of the main world and the four realms, the Misery Realm, as the place where the human race flourishes, has always been an existence that many top powers cannot ignore.

However, since the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors attained enlightenment, the suppressive destiny of the eight great human beings with supernatural powers has prevented many powerful forces from interfering in it.Afterwards, these eight great supernatural beings used their supreme and profound magic power to seal off the most sacred place in the miserable state, establish a level of heavenly and human ban, and established the ultimate power between heaven and earth, turning it into the land of Jiuzhou today.

However, under the ban of those with great supernatural powers, the only ones who can still stand in the suffering are the three schools of Buddhism, Taoism and Demonism.It's just that among the three families, except for the Taoist sect, the status of the Buddha and the demon sect has always been hovering on the edge.

In the past, the two families of Buddha and Demon have been suppressed by the kings and emperors of the past dynasties. However, in recent dynasties, Emperor Yin of the past few dynasties began to believe in Buddhism for some reason.This generation of Emperor Yin even took Emperor Baoguang, one of the 24 Heavens of Buddhism, as his national teacher, which gradually made the power of Buddhism in the suffering realm stronger.

Kumarajiva said in a deep voice: "The human king's Dharma eyes are as bright as a torch, but there are hundreds of thousands of ghosts wandering in Ludu. Disasters will inevitably occur over time. Once a ghost king and ghost emperor are born, it will be a disaster for all life. The poor monk has compassion, After crossing hundreds of thousands of ghosts out of the sea of ​​suffering, I temporarily forgot the taboos of the nine states, and hoped that the human king would be merciful beyond the law."

Although the monk's tone was soft, an imperial edict appeared between his eyebrows as he spoke. The Dragon Qi of the Emperor of Humanity evolved from the imperial edict, and the majesty of the Nine-Nine Lords of Humanity made Di Gange frown.

"Yin Chaotian's edict!"

Di Gange took a deep look at the imperial edict on Kumara's eyebrows and said: "No wonder you, a young Buddhist monk, dare to transform the souls of the people of Jiuzhou. It turns out that you have the imperial edict from Emperor Yin, and you think there are no taboos. , so I dare to violate the taboos of Kyushu."

The emperor of the human race is called the Lord of the Nine-Nine, and can be said to be the co-lord of the human race, and the emperor will surrender to the emperor as soon as he comes out of the wilderness.And with the blessing of the ban on heaven and man set by the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, even if Di Gange was once a human king, he had to give in.

However, outside the realm of suffering, Buddhism saves and transforms the beings in the Buddhist country, and those with great supernatural powers of the human race cannot control it.But if Buddhism were to convert human souls in Kyushu, it would really make Di Gange wary.

Nowadays, humanity is prospering, and the fate of the human race is boundless. Above the souls of the human race, there is also great luck for humanity.

Almost everyone is born with a destiny, and once the human soul takes refuge in the Pure Land of Buddhism, this destiny will also be thrown into Buddhism, which will extremely damage the destiny of humanity.

Di Gange sighed quietly: "That's all, that's all, since the young monk has the emperor's order, why should I act in vain. It's just that the emperor of this generation relies too much on Buddhism, which is a disaster rather than a blessing!"

Even if Di Gange holds the Emperor's Golden Edict in his arms, he can annul this Emperor's imperial edict.But since Emperor Yin bestowed this imperial edict, he naturally had his own reasons. If he was entrusted with important matters, how could Di Gange rashly speak out about it.

Kumarajiva clasped his palms together and said calmly: "How can a human king know that the emperor will not become more and more wise under my Buddhist transformation?"

Inadvertently, Kumara's ambition has quietly been revealed.

Di Gange turned around and said coldly: "Okay, then let me wait and see to see if the Yin Dynasty can withstand the desolation of several generations of emperors."
