Book of the Heavens

Chapter 350 Looking for the Bodhi Patriarch
"What is it that can make the giant beast that kills the saint afraid?" Yang Hao asked doubtfully.

The analysis of Sun Wukong and Wutian is very reasonable. If the giant beast hadn't been afraid, it would have devoured the entire Three Realms without leaving any dregs when Yang Hao and the others rushed back from the outer world.

But the Three Realms are still there, just lost some energy, as long as the source of the problem is solved, it will not take long to recover.

This shows that the giant beast must be afraid and dare not directly devour the world of Journey to the West.

But what is it that it fears?

It can't be Yuanyuan Shenhuang and Yang Hao's grandfather, because before they made a move, the giant beast called two companions over. It was obviously afraid of something in the world of Journey to the West, and it was very likely that it was killed last time. When I came, I also suffered a lot.

Otherwise, if there is a lot of "meal", you can share the food, and there is only one bite, so why call two companions over?
Yes, one bite.

Although the root law of Journey to the West is very strong, the level is not low, but for that kind of giant beast, it is just a matter of one bite - there is not even a saint-level existence, this world is really not worth three giant beasts sharing food together .

Perhaps, one or two factors alone can't decide anything, but the combination of many factors undoubtedly shows that the giant beast is really afraid.

As long as it finds what it is afraid of and uses it, there is hope to deal with the giant beast.

"I really can't figure it out, the ancient Buddha of Dieng Deng may know something, but unfortunately, his old man has passed away." Wutian said, realizing that Sun Wukong looked at him with some unkind eyes, so he said again: "I didn't kill him, All I want is to control the Three Realms, and I didn't kill any gods and Buddhas in the sky."

This is not a sophistry, looking at the original work, Wutian really didn't kill anyone.

Except for the "Guiding Buddha" who was the first to take refuge in him and was not good at doing things, but after coming to this world and finding that all the gods and Buddhas in the sky are deliberately hiding their clumsiness, Yang Hao suspects that the death of Guiding Buddha is also a fake death.

Who is the guide?

The leader of Western religion, the founder of Buddhism, the source of all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas!

Perhaps, it is strange to say "receiving the Buddha" and "receiving the sage" is not a figure of the Westward Journey, but if you want to say "Amitabha", no one is unfamiliar. The monks read it almost every day, and even the Buddha in the library , Sometimes it's all on the lips.

Such a character would go to Wutian and be easily killed?
Unless the "Jieyin" and "Amitabha Buddha" of this world are two people, no matter whether others believe it or not, Yang Hao will never believe it.

"The Buddha should also know, but he has been forced to reincarnate by you, and he will not be seen in a short time." Sun Wukong said: "Besides, there are great powers in the Three Realms and senior generations, such as the Supreme Lord and the Jade Emperor. , Zhen Yuanzi, and my master Subhuti Patriarch. Among them, the old man and Jade Emperor Laoer have gone into hiding without knowing where they went under the guise of Curator Yang. My master Subhuti Patriarch has also disappeared. Zhen Yuanzi can still be found."

Hearing this, the three immediately rushed to Wuzhuang Temple to find Zhen Yuanzi.

When he saw Sun Wukong and Wutian coming together for the first time, Zhen Yuanzi's expression was wonderful, and he opened his mouth for a long time without saying anything.It was only after Sun Wukong explained the catastrophe of the Three Realms and made it clear that he was temporarily joining forces with Wutian that he came back to his senses.

Immediately afterwards, he sighed, shook his head and said, "After hiding for so many years, I still can't hide after all!"

"It may not be impossible to hide, as long as you tell us what the giant beast is afraid of, we will be sure to deal with it after we find it!" Yang Hao said.

Regarding this, Zhen Yuanzi sighed again, and said: "It's gone, that giant beast is just cowardly. If it were a little more courageous, it would find that the 'Pangu' that it was afraid of back then would never be able to reappear. There is no one who can reproduce Pan Gu's real body!"

As soon as these words came out, no matter it was Sun Wukong, Wutian, or even Yang Hao, they all showed expressions of astonishment.

What the giant beast feared turned out to be Pan Gu, which was unexpected by the three of them, but it seemed reasonable—if the juvenile giant beast was one of the top beings in the Da Luo Jin Xian, then Pan Gu was in the realm of the Da Luo Jin Xian There is no real peak.

If someone can reproduce Pan Gu's true body, relying on Pan Gu's power, it is not surprising that the giant beast was severely injured.

Although Pangu in Journey to the West is not the real Pangu, he is also a powerful man who created the world. Even Wutian will not deny this.

"Who was it back then, the reappeared Pan Gu's real body?" Monkey King asked.

Hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi looked at him and said: "At the time when the giant beast invaded for the first time, Zhou Tian 360 Xingjun arranged the 'Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Formation' to trap it, then the twelve ancestor witches merged, and the seventeen ancient The Buddha injected his own power into the ancestor witch's body at the price of death, and then reappeared Pan Gu's true body. Afterwards, under the blessing of Zhou Tian's star battle formation, he fought hard for a long time before defeating the giant beast and ushering in the peace of the three realms."

"360 Xingjun? Not 36?" Yang Hao frowned.

As for Wutian, he murmured: "The Twelve Patriarchal Witches, isn't that just the ancient god who disappeared?"

"In that first battle, the Three Realms suffered heavy losses, but also because of that battle, the Heavenly Court became the ruler of the Three Realms, and the descendants of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, the 'Human Race', were also established as the protagonists of the Heaven and Earth. The disciples of the Seventeen Ancient Buddhas, and more It has become the most noble existence in the Three Realms, and the survivors like me will call themselves Xiaoxian whenever we see it." Zhen Yuanzi said again: "By the way, in the seventeen ancient Buddhas, there is a person who relied on his remnants to force himself to the front. It passed away not long ago, and it was the burning lamp."

Wutian suddenly heard the words.

He also wondered why Ran Deng chose to pass away despite his profound mana. It turned out that he had already died and lived up to now by relying on remnants.

"Although the seventeenth ancient Buddha is dead now, but there are relics left behind, it should be possible to reproduce the power of the ancient Buddha?" Yang Hao asked.

Hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi nodded and said: "The relics are the source of the power of the ancient Buddha. As long as you gather all seventeen relics, you can reproduce the power of the seventeen ancient Buddhas. However, if you want to reproduce Pangu's power just by relying on this The real body is simply impossible, the most important thing to condense Pangu's real body is not the relic, but the 'twelve ancestor witches' transformed by Pangu's blood essence!"

Immediately, Yang Hao understood that there was no hope of reappearing Pan Gu's real body.

According to what Zhen Yuanzi said, the relationship between relics and Zuwu's body is like oil and cars. Of course, cars without oil can't be driven, but without the oil of cars, it doesn't even count as a means of transportation, let alone drive. .

"Could it be that the combined power of the seventeen ancient Buddhas is not enough to deal with it?" Wutian asked.

Zhen Yuanzi shook his head upon hearing this.

"Then what about me and the Tathagata?" Wutian said again: "I can kill him, take the Tathagata's relics, and then sit down and change the seventeen relics into nineteen. , can it be compared to Pan Gu's real body?"

Regarding this, Sun Wukong couldn't help but glanced at Wutian, and said: "I underestimated you, it seems that although you Wutian is a demon, you are also a character."

Wutian didn't speak, just stared at Zhen Yuanzi.

However, Zhen Yuanzi still shook his head and said: "It's too far away. Seventeen relics are enough for a simple relic. If there are more, even ten thousand are useless. The mana of ten thousand heavenly soldiers adds up. They are all as tall as the Buddha, but can ten thousand heavenly soldiers compare with the Tathagata?"

Hearing this, Sun Wukong shook his head and said, "No, my old grandson can fight hundreds of thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals, let alone Tathagata?"

"After losing the Twelve Ancestral Witches, haven't you thought about finding a replacement?" Yang Hao said.

"Think about it, many people have done experiments, but they didn't work." Zhen Yuanzi sighed, and said, "Realist Yuding split Pangu's 'Nine-Zhuan Xuangong' and created the eight-nine Xuangong to create Yang Jian. , but it is far inferior to the ancestor witch when he cultivated to the "sanctification of the body". Tathagata also created the "golden body", which is also useless. Fan Tao, who is not detached from Buddhism, cannot have the power of Pangu. Taishang Laojun also deliberately gave Wukong gold After eating Dan and burning it in the gossip furnace, I wanted to create a golden body comparable to that of the Zuwu, but in the end... it only produced 'golden eyes'."

When he spoke, his tone was full of helplessness.

It is really helpless.

There are so many people in the Three Realms who are cultivating substitutes for the ancestral witch, but no one has succeeded from the beginning to the end.

"So, the art of transformation that my old grandson learned is also a way to lead to the ancestral witch?" Sun Wukong said.

Hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi nodded and said: "Wukong, your master, Patriarch Subhuti, was the first to try. Although he ended in failure, he has learned all the magical powers of Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism. He is the closest to success." He split the Jiuzhuan Xuangong into 'Tiangang 36 Transformations' and 'Disha 72 Transformations', and wanted to integrate them and directly 'transform' them into Pangu."

"It failed?" Yang Hao said.

"Failed, the mortal body can't change into Pangu at all, even the ancestral witch can't change." Zhen Yuanzi said: "Because of this, he found Wukong, who is born divine, and taught him the '72 changes'. The sacred body was converted into the body of the ancestral witch. But it also failed. Although the sacred body has advantages that the mortal body cannot match, it is also a disadvantage and cannot be completely transformed."

The three of Yang Hao shook their heads when they heard this.

The celestial body of a mortal cultivated into a fairy can be transformed at will, but it cannot reach the strength of the body of the ancestral witch, so it failed.However, although the innately holy body is strong enough, it cannot be transformed because it is too strong.

This is a dead knot, even with the wisdom of Patriarch Bodhi, it cannot be untied.

"Then, Brother Zhen Yuanzi, do you know where Master has gone?" Sun Wukong asked.

Although Patriarch Bodhi failed, but in terms of cultivation and knowledge, he is definitely the top of the Three Realms. Tathagata, Jade Emperor, Laojun and others are all inferior to him.Because these people only practice one path, but Patriarch Bodhi practiced the three paths together, and all of them have reached the peak level.

Sun Wukong really wants to find his master and discuss countermeasures together.

"I don't know, I only know that he originally lived in Fangcun Mountain, Lingtai, Xiniu Hezhou, which is the place where Wukong you apprenticed to." Zhen Yuanzi said: "But later, it is said that he discovered something called 'origin', Then he kept in secret and stopped contacting anyone, even his master Tathagata, who was studying Buddhism, didn’t know where he went.”

Yes, Patriarch Bodhi was once a disciple of Tathagata.

The original "Subhuti" was a Taoist, and had already cultivated to become a fairy, and even reached the quasi-sage level.Later, I felt that I couldn't satisfy myself, so I devoted myself to Buddhism to follow Tathagata to learn Buddhism, and left behind the title of "Subhuti", one of the top ten disciples of Buddha.

However, after learning the Dharma and cultivating Buddhist gold, he ran away again.

He went to study in the mortal world and learned Confucianism and Taoism.

Now whether he is an immortal, a Buddha, or a Confucian scholar, no one knows. Zhen Yuanzi only knows that the cultivation level of Patriarch Bodhi is even higher than that of Tathagata. Even Jade Emperor, Laojun and others cannot see through it. .

What's even more amazing is that he has kept a low profile, except for the title of "Top Ten Disciples of the Buddha", no other titles have been handed down.

On the contrary, Sun Wukong, his apprentice whom he randomly accepted, became the Monkey King instead.

"What is the origin?" Wutian asked suspiciously.

Hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi shook his head and said, "No one knows."

"The curator may know." Sun Wukong looked at Yang Hao and said, "I remember you said that Wutian, Tathagata, and Jade Emperor are all quasi-sages, and they can become saints after they have the primordial purple energy. Then the saints will advance , that realm seems to be the origin."

Yang Hao nodded and said, "That's right, if Patriarch Subhuti really touches the origin, then we must rely on him to deal with the giant beast!"

He was very surprised why the Bodhi Patriarch, who was only in the quasi-sage realm, could get in touch with the "origin".

However, Patriarch Bodhi is still a quasi-sage. He has never seen it before, so he can't be sure. Maybe he has already advanced to a saint?Even if not, it is possible to awaken the source like Fuxi and all the saints in the world.

In addition, the deduction of the sixth layer of the "Sun God Art" also requires his help.

Therefore, the most important thing at present is to find Patriarch Bodhi.

"I'll look for it." Wutian said, and mobilized the laws of the Great Thousand World, but the result was no surprise, and he couldn't find it at all.

"If the master doesn't want to see us, he can't find it with ordinary methods." Sun Wukong said: "It's better to call directly. If the old man wants to see us, he will come out by himself."

After he finished speaking, he cast his supernatural powers, and after becoming bigger, he shouted to the sky: "Master, my disciple Sun Wukong is asking to see you."

He yelled three times in a row, and the voice echoed in the three realms, frightening many monsters so that they collapsed to the ground.

Monkey King, Monkey King's name is still very resounding among ordinary demons and gods.

However, after three beeps, Patriarch Bodhi did not appear.

This undoubtedly showed that he did not want to see Sun Wukong and Yang Hao and others.

"Master, this disciple really misses you!" Sun Wukong continued.

When Patriarch Bodhi was gone, he kept shouting, shouting, and shouting in different ways.Finally, after shouting for more than two hours, the helpless Patriarch Bodhi smashed a floating dust on Monkey King's head.

"Pohou, come and see me yourself." A voice that seemed stern but full of kindness said.
