Chapter 791: Changing the Sky (4)
In the heart of Qionghua Mountain.
At the core of the beautiful jade vein that stretched for hundreds of millions of miles and once gave birth to the peerless power of Queen Qionghua, a handsome young monk clasped his hands together and followed respectfully behind an old man with a long robe and wide sleeves and a strange face.
The old man had his hands behind his back, like an old master taking his disciples out of town for a spring outing. He walked slowly in the mineral veins, and from time to time he commented on the magnificent Taoist patterns that appeared in the mineral veins around him.
It is worthy of being the holy land where Empress Qionghua was born.
This jade vein is full of Taoism and spiritual energy, needless to say. The natural jade essence in the vein has condensed into countless jade liquids, jade pastes, chalcedony, jade ganoderma and other rare treasures in the world, each of which is a rare cultivation resource and precious medicine in the outside world.
And all this is just normal.
What is truly precious is the mineral vein itself.
After all, this is the holy land that gave birth to the Queen Mother Qionghua. Let me ask you, can ordinary women only reproduce once and that be the end of it? As long as the conditions are right, as long as the nutrition is sufficient, as long as the woman is still young and strong, she can naturally give birth to new lives one after another!
The same is true for this jade vein.
It took countless trillions of years to create such a wonderful thing as the Qionghua Goddess. Now that the Qionghua Goddess has passed away, the jade vein remains in Liangyi Heaven. Today, Liangyi Heaven is still thriving, and the power of heaven and earth is at its peak. As long as the jade vein accumulates enough power of heaven and earth, it will naturally create the next Qionghua Goddess.
Although I don’t know how many years that was, the potential of this jade mine is still intact.
"What a wonderful place! That prison-suppressing kid must have thought about it."
The old man suddenly exclaimed: "He placed the little thief Fahai in Qionghua Mountain. I think he had some considerations and had a great strategy in mind... Occupying Qionghua Mountain, whether it can be used or not, at least it has gained an advantage."
"It's a pity that after all, the foundation is not enough and the background is too shallow. I have occupied Qionghua Mountain, but I don't know what benefits this Qionghua Mountain has and how to maximize its effect."
The old man shook his head and said with emotion: "After all, they are all a bunch of children."
The little monk at the side smiled very gently: "Of course they are not as good as you, Master... Let's not talk about these thief monks from the Prison-Suppressing Sect, just talk about the entire Liangyi Heaven, how many people can compare to you, Master?"
The old man smiled.
He raised his head, thought seriously for a while, and started calculating on his fingers.
"The so-called Qingyang authentic sect is just a bunch of idiots, naturally they are not as good as me."
"Among the Eighteen Sages of Taoism, well, Gu Sanren can barely be counted as one... If the old immortal from the Chi family is still alive, he would certainly be counted as one... Apart from them, the rest of the Taoist disciples, including Gui Yuan, Gui Xu, and Yi Qi, are mediocre. Although they are all good friends and allies of mine... In my heart, they still owe me a chip."
"The thirteen thieves and bald men in the Buddhist sect are just the front men. They are nothing more than signboards and cover-ups. They are not really powerful. They are certainly not as good as me."
"There are a few powerful figures in the Buddhist sect who stayed, such as Da Feitian who is causing trouble in the Demon Suppression Ridge... That person is a powerful figure who can be expelled by the Buddha himself. Haha... That person is truly a god-like person."
"Besides Dafeitian, there were a few old shady fellows under the Buddha's seat who were low-key, gloomy, and had unpredictable schemes... Tsk, after the Buddha left Liangyitian, Buddhism rose to prominence, and a group of young monks were jumping around, but those old fellows disappeared. Who knows where they are hiding and planning something bad?"
"There are only a few of them."
The old man sighed, "In this vast Liangyi Heaven, there are only a few people who can really compete with me. Baoguang and Zhenyu are obviously not on this list, so I personally come to their door to bully one of their grandchildren... Tsk!"
The little monk smiled even more brightly.
The old man reached out his hand and gently patted the young monk: "This is not good, very bad. I was born with this kind of temper. I like to plan everything in advance... Even if it is for a group of young people, I will do enough work in advance. Who would have thought that a person like me would actually plant hidden players in the Qionghua Mountain lineage in advance?"
"You are a legitimate disciple of the Qionghua Mountain lineage. Who would have thought that you were a chess piece sent by this old man?"
The little monk put his hands together and chanted a Buddhist name in a serious manner: "Master, you are wise and powerful, you can do what others cannot do, and you can think of what others cannot think of. This is natural."
"You flatter me well." The old man patted the young monk on the head and said, "But, no reward. Um, it's just in front?"
The little monk nodded hurriedly, "It's just in front... These days, Fahai is busy doing something at the Demon Suppression Ridge. The people who stayed in Qionghua Mountain are all a bunch of rubbish. I, holding the Taoist talisman given by the master, can go in and out of the heart of the mountain as if I were in an empty place. No one noticed... Show me the location. I have already surveyed it thoroughly."
After hesitating for a while, the little monk said softly, "It's just that, after all, that's where Queen Qionghua shed her shell. There are extremely powerful restrictions left by her. Disciples can't get close to it at all. The inside is mysterious, I'm afraid you'll have to take action yourself, Master."
The old man nodded and said, "Of course. How important is the place where such a great man shed his shell and was born? Even if he has already transcended, it must be carefully guarded and cannot be defiled by future generations."
"In the Liangyi Heaven, the only ones who are confident of breaking the restrictions she left behind are me... and two or three others, right?"
The old man smiled, shook his body, and moved forward thousands of miles with the little monk, and came to a cave that was shining with magnificent light.
This place is shrouded in strange light, and all the colors of the beautiful jade in the world can be seen here.
Green, white, red, black, gold... all kinds of extremely moist jade light filled the place, and the rich jade essence was endless, like flowing water filling the four directions. The overly thick and pure jade essence turned this cavern with a radius of tens of thousands of miles into a piece of semi-solidified amber. If ordinary creatures dared to approach and slightly touch the jade essence, their flesh and blood would be assimilated in an instant, turning into a large jade stone with no intelligence or wisdom!
Outside this Yin cave filled with jade light, a thousand-foot-long jade stele carried on the back of a giant turtle stands tall.
On the jade stele, there is a piece of gorgeous golden text.
The radiant words described in detail that this was the place where Empress Qionghua was conceived, where her mother's womb was, and she had a feeling of "birth mother" to her. Empress Qionghua transcended and left, but this Yin cave belonged to this world, so she did not use her magical powers to take it away.
Queen Qionghua warned future generations that this place contained infinite opportunities for creation and endless possibilities for creation.
After she leaves, within a million years at most, a wisp of innate divine spirit will naturally condense in this Yin cave. After countless years of hard work, an innate life exactly like her will be conceived and born from it.
In a sense, the innate life conceived later is equivalent to Empress Qionghua's "brother or sister"!
Queen Qionghua even gave a "stern warning" that if anyone dared to covet the mystery here, destroyed the opportunity of creation of this Yin cave, did something bad to them, and affected the conception and birth of her "brothers and sisters", then even if she was in the upper realm, if she felt it, she would bring down unpredictable disasters!
"Haha, unpredictable disaster." The old man looked at the jade tablet and laughed softly: "If I didn't know the truth, I would be scared by you. But now you don't know whether you are alive or dead, how can you bring down a disaster?"
Shaking his head, the old man let out a light shout, and the index finger of his right hand suddenly grew about three times longer, with a ray of green light flashing at the fingertips.
"Buzz!"
The invisible forbidden spell was activated, and the light on the jade tablet on the giant turtle's back flickered violently. Large patches of golden words were surrounded by light and smoke, and dull thunder sounds continued to sound from the jade tablet. Jade-colored lightning flashed from the jade tablet, and in an instant, it condensed into lightning balls the size of water tanks, hitting the old man head on.
"Oh, the mountains and rivers are like a jade brocade ball!" The old man exclaimed in a hoarse voice, and shook his hands fiercely. His big sleeves brought up a continuous green light and blocked the brocade ball that was full of lightning in the sky.
The Jade Ball of Mountains and Rivers in Oneness was the companion spiritual treasure of Empress Qionghua back then. It was a genuine and top-grade innate spiritual treasure. In the Liangyi Heaven, it was definitely a first-class killing treasure.
In the era of Empress Qionghua , many famous figures, whether they were Taoist sages or Buddhist Buddhas, whether they were Taoist Nine-Turn Holy Body or Buddhist Indestructible Golden Body, were beaten by Empress Qionghua with this hydrangea, and many of them suffered bruises, broken bones, and even lost their souls.
The most glorious battle was the one before Empress Qionghua transcended and ascended to heaven. Something unknown had angered her, and she went alone to the Western Regions, fighting her way in from Lion Ridge. In just a quarter of an hour, she severely injured about 1,200 minor Buddhist Bodhisattvas, crippled 372 major Buddhist Bodhisattvas, killed 23 Buddhas, and finally beat three Buddhas so hard that they vomited blood and fell to the ground, struggling and twitching like mud.
In that battle, Queen Qionghua only used this one jade ball of mountains and rivers, and she almost destroyed half of the Buddhist sect!
After that battle, Shanhe Yiqi's Jade Ball had a fierce reputation, and in the Buddhist territory, it was enough to stop children from crying at night!
Queen Qionghua actually didn't take such a valuable weapon for killing to the upper realm?
Instead, it stayed in the womb where it shed its shell and transformed?
The little monk held his head, hid behind the old man, and shouted hoarsely: "Master, help me... How could such a treasure exist here so safely for so many years?"
The old man's sleeves were fluttering with green light, and countless lightning balls fell down, causing large pieces of green light to shatter continuously. The old man's body seemed to be slightly staggering, but he still managed to keep his balance under the fierce attack of the lightning balls.
He said in a deep voice, "What's so strange about this? Someone must have come here to explore before, but they didn't have the means I have, so they couldn't disturb this treasure... Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, come to think of it, in such a huge Liangyi Heaven, I'm actually the first one to disturb this Jade Ball of Mountains and Rivers?"
"This treasure is destined to be with me!"
The old man was so excited that his whole body was trembling slightly, his eyes were emitting a faint light, and his two eyeballs suddenly turned into the form of insect-like "compound eyes", the pupils with faint light flowing turned into a state of countless extremely tiny pupils superimposed, strange light was rippling in each of the tiny compound eyes, and in each of the compound eyes, there was an unpredictable magical power quietly bursting out.
Time, blockade.
Space, solidified.
The light is sealed.
Darkness, repression.
Earth, water, fire, wind, thunder, ice, and lightning...all kinds of Taoist rhymes and inspirations were forcibly imprisoned by the unpredictable forbidden methods.
A strange light flashed in the old man's eyes, and he forcibly cut the Yin Cave in front of him, which was thousands of miles in radius, and the surrounding jade veins, completely tearing and severing the connection between this Yin Cave and the entire Liangyi Heaven.
Qionghua Mountain shook slightly.
The connection between the jade vein and this Yin cave was suddenly severed, and the huge mountain range rumbled. The endless jade vein essence was originally flowing freely along the underground veins set by Empress Qionghua, but at this moment the Yin cave suddenly "disappeared", the majestic jade vein essence lost its place, and the entire huge circulation system was suddenly in chaos.
The essence of the jade veins was restless, like countless angry dragons rushing upwards.
With a sound of "crack", a very fine crack was forcibly opened on the main peak of Qionghua Mountain from the foot to the top of the mountain. The mighty jade vein essence gushed out from the tiny crack, turning into a terrible high-pressure airflow that rushed straight to the sky. The billowing jade-colored smoke and clouds scattered, spreading out for an unknown number of miles in an instant.
From all directions, countless cultivators, mortals, birds and beasts smelled a refreshing fragrance at the same time.
All living things, including those ancient trees, flowers and plants, and even the earthworms and ants underground, all felt the majestic vitality seeping into their bodies. This feeling was like returning to the mother's womb, and the concentration and quality of the amniotic fluid in the mother's womb suddenly increased by tens of millions of times, and endless energy was seeping into the body uncontrollably.
Flesh, enhanced.
Soul, enhanced.
Magic power soared inexplicably!
The monks were fine, and those mortals who had practiced some martial arts were also fine... The most pitiful were the ordinary mortals, they were truly 'too weak to be nourished', many of them smelled the jade vein essence oozing from the ground, and their faces instantly turned red, their bodies swelled, and hot blood continued to seep out of their seven orifices and even their pores.
As for the smaller birds and animals, small creatures like sparrows and crows, their bodies exploded directly, turning into a ball of bloody mist.
What is terrifying is that after the bodies of these small creatures exploded, their flesh and blood burst into blood mist, but their bones were forcibly infected by the essence of jade veins and turned into balls of crystal clear jade, falling heavily from the sky.
There are also some creatures that are born with great spirituality, such as the "white crows", a species of crows. Their bodies are as weak as those of their own kind, but their spirits are much stronger than those of their own kind.
Their flesh exploded, their internal organs disintegrated, and their bones turned into beautiful jade and fell from the sky. Their spirits were also nourished by the essence of the jade veins, and in the blink of an eye they became a hundred or a thousand times stronger than before... and their spirits and souls at this level were already enough to control their jade-like bones!
One jade skeleton after another either flew into the air or ran all over the ground...
Or, in the Liuxia River, there are fish bones as beautiful as jade that shuttle rapidly in the river, jumping up and down "happily" from time to time, splashing large amounts of water!
What followed was the flowers, plants and trees, which began to grow madly as if they were possessed by an evil spirit.
The giant trees that were originally as thick as three or five people, accompanied by a sharp tearing sound, instantly grew to the thickness of more than ten people... Those flowers and plants that were about one or two feet high, grew to the height of two or three stories in the blink of an eye.
Like the birds and beasts, these ancient trees, flowers and plants were also unable to withstand the jade vein essence that was instantly injected into their bodies. The ancient trees, which were several times thicker and taller, eventually exploded into giant pieces of wood with a sharp tearing sound; and the plants that were also growing rapidly did not even leave any fragments, but directly exploded into a ball of green spiritual mist!
But plants have extremely long vitality.
The old tree shattered, and new buds grew rapidly on the broken stumps.
Flowers and plants exploded, and in the green spiritual mist, seeds nourished by the essence of the jade veins quickly sprouted.
After the main peak of Mount Qionghua exploded, within a short span of a finger snap, with Lu Yi's location as the center and a radius of one million miles, countless mutated flowers, plants and trees grew like crazy, occupying the entire land in an instant!
The trees are like pillars and the flowers and plants are like fireworks.
It is extremely lush, extremely prosperous, and the colors are brilliant, just like a colorful cloud!
All the flowers, plants and trees underwent miraculous changes, from ordinary trees and grasses to rare spiritual trees with some jade properties. Even the flowers on the trees, when they swayed in the wind, the petals collided with each other, making clear and pleasant "ding-dong-ding-dong" sounds!
Lu Yi was stunned.
The Void Monk laughed strangely and grinned at Lu Yi: "Now, I don't need to waste any more time talking to you youngsters... Your temple has collapsed! Hehe, Qionghua Mountain, Qionghua Mountain, what a beautiful mountain of Qionghua, but it's a pity that the splendor is no longer there!"
The monk laughed with great satisfaction.
Lu Yi's face was gloomy, and the Fantian Seal on his head made a dull roar and whistled down on his head. Seeing that his own dojo suddenly cracked open a big crack, and the overflowing jade vein essence nourished the surrounding flowers, plants and trees so beautifully and luxuriantly, Lu Yi's mood was a miracle.
The Fantian Seal came down with all its might, hitting the Void Monk squarely on the head.
With a dull thud, the Void Monk was smashed into a ball of dim silver light. The light mist trembled for a moment, and suddenly turned into a very thin ray of faint light, flying rapidly towards the thin crack on the mountain.
Lu Yi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly came to his senses!
The Void Monk here is just a clone... His real body is causing trouble in the heart of the mountain... Lu Yi couldn't help but sneer: "Interesting, interesting, no wonder, you said you and Master Zeng are of the same generation, I was wondering why you are so weak and a little confused!"
With a long roar towards the sky, Lu Yi yelled out the honorable title of Baoguang Gongde Buddha - 'Baoguang Gongde Buddha'!
On and below Qionghua Mountain, countless Buddhist cultivators of the Qionghua lineage gathered their magic power and shouted loudly, calling out the title of Baoguang Merit Buddha one after another... With the power of the Buddha, even if someone called out his title softly in a hidden corner, he would immediately notice it. With so many cultivators shouting in unison, as long as Baoguang Merit Buddha was still alive, there was no reason for him not to notice it!
Lu Yi immediately felt a fiery and ever-changing gaze directed at him.
His body shook, and he immediately turned into a dark golden Buddha light and rushed into the crack of the main peak of Qionghua Mountain. Afterwards, Qingyou and the three girls, as well as large groups of Taoist monks, shouted in unison and turned into streams of light to chase after him.
'Haha, haha, hahaha'!
A laughter with a hint of madness and lawlessness suddenly sounded. The laughter was endless. At first, the sound was not loud, but after a breath, the laughter had become so loud that it enveloped the entire world.
Countless cultivators around Qionghua Mountain heard this laughter and felt their internal organs tremble, their souls seemed to be struck by countless thunderbolts, their bodies were numb, and they could not control themselves from body to soul. One by one, they fell to the ground. However, the jade vein essence that had penetrated into their bodies was also dissipated from their bodies by this laughter.
“Interesting, interesting, really interesting!”
Dafeitian, who looked like a young monk, had bright eyes and moved directly over from the Demon-Suppressing Ridge with unfathomable magical powers... His whole body was wrapped in eighty-one layers of light and dark flickering halos of varying shades. It seemed to be gray without any color changes, but it seemed to be filled with all the colors in the world, and it continuously emitted huge and incredible Buddhist fluctuations.
At first glance, these eighty-one light wheels are only a few feet wide, but if you look closely, the more you concentrate, the more you will discover that there are infinite mysteries in these light wheels, which contain incredible spatial dimensions.
There were more than trillions of overlapping halos, and each of them seemed to contain a small world between reality and illusion, with pagodas, temples, lotus ponds and precious trees, famous mountains and rivers, and countless great monks and devout believers sitting cross-legged among the mountains and rivers, discussing the Dao, chanting scriptures, and some were refining elixirs and weapons, while others were drawing talismans and setting up formations...
In short, all living beings and all ethnic groups in the world can be found in these eighty-one light wheels.
In short, all the cultivation tasks that all the monks in the world have to complete on a daily basis are carried out in these eighty-one light wheels by those great monks and devout believers in an orderly manner and they are having a lot of fun.
And all people, as long as they see these halos, will have a flash of enlightenment out of thin air - the creatures in these halos, their actions, their every move, all their 'gains', all their 'achievements', all their 'enlightenments', all their 'feelings', will be instantly fed back to Dafeitian!
In other words, Dafeitian is not practicing alone, but countless creatures are working together with him!
Countless living beings have become Dafeitian's "clones" and "spirits". All their achievements in cultivation will eventually become Dafeitian's achievements.
If he continued to think along this line of thought, any harm that Dafeitian suffered from the outside world seemed to be evenly distributed to the creatures in these halos who worked diligently and practiced hard every day through this strange connection!
One person can create billions of Buddha lands.
One person controls billions of Buddhist kingdoms.
One person integrates billions of Buddhist kingdoms!
In other words, billions of Buddha lands and trillions of sentient beings all exist for him and are born for him. The meaning of all existence is for him... simply and purely 'for' him!
In the past, Dafei Tian was expelled from Buddhism by the Buddha. Perhaps his roots may be here.
"Old friend, old friend!" Dafeitian laughed softly, "Who are you to bully Fahai? Do you think it's fun? Come, come, come, let's get friendly!"
With a loud laugh, Da Feitian's body shook and he also turned into a stream of light and went into the crack of the mountain.
The heart of the mountain.
The dark silver light transformed by the Void Monk flew rapidly towards the handsome young monk who had been hiding in the Qionghua Mountain for who knows how many years.
The little monk suddenly raised his head, his eyes widened in surprise: "Why did you come to see me? You..."
The handsome little monk's eyes suddenly burst into dazzling silver light, and a brilliant smile suddenly appeared on his pure and innocent little face: "So that's it, so you are me and I am you!"
He glanced at the old man standing beside him, who was concentrating on dealing with the Shanhe Yiqi Jade Ball, and chuckled, "You can't blame me. In order to sneak into Qionghua Mountain and avoid being discovered by those old thieves from the Zhenyu lineage, I had to seal myself here...but I forgot about you!"
Laughing, the little monk raised his right hand.
The silver light flew over quickly and instantly sank into the monk's right palm. The monk's right little finger suddenly flashed a dazzling silver light, and then, starting with that finger, a large area of silver light quickly spread over his body.
By the time Lu Yi arrived, the little monk's entire body had turned into pure silver.
Unlike the previous Void Monk who looked like a pure silver statue, although this little monk was also made of pure silver, his body gave people a 'shimmering' feeling, as if his body was made of mercury.
Moreover, every time the surface of his body flickered, his presence was weakened a little!
After flashing like this for hundreds of times, the little monk 's presence had become negligible. Even though Lu Yu had "really" seen him with his naked eyes, it was extremely difficult for Lu Yu to judge that this little monk really existed!
It felt as if the little monk was not tolerated by this world. The whole world was extremely rejecting him and was constantly expelling him, corroding him, and destroying him bit by bit. It was bound to annihilate him completely!
Seeing Lu Yi, the little monk opened his arms and blocked his way.
He nodded to Lu Yi with a smile on his face: "I am Xiuchan, the young monk, and I am honored to meet the abbot!"
Lu Yu raised his eyebrows, and his mind quickly flashed through the names of the many new disciples that Qionghua Ancient Temple had recruited in the past few years. The "Xiu" generation was a generation name set for Qionghua Ancient Temple by Jieying Toudao and other old monks who were originally Mahakala. They were the first generation of formal disciples of Qionghua Ancient Temple after Lu Yu.
Xiuchan?
Lu Yi remembers it clearly.
He remembered that Jie Yin Toudao had highlighted this young monk in the list of disciples, saying that he had a deep Buddha nature and was suspected to have innate wisdom, and was truly a natural disciple of Buddhism!
However, the Buddhist disciple mentioned by Jie Yin Tou Tuo "recovered" the monk Xu Wu and stood in front of Lu Yi.
