Wet viviparity

Chapter 952 The song says, "As you wish, strike!"
As Zen Master Caihu's mind raced, filled with doubt and uncertainty about the news from the Red Beauty Cave, a tiny ray of light suddenly shone in the eastern sky.

The beam of light was initially as thin as a wheat awn, but in an instant it expanded into a blazing white burst of light that stretched across the sky. Its momentum was like thunder in the ancient wilderness, and its speed was comparable to the perception of the primordial spirit. It was like a rainbow flying across the sky, hanging obliquely in the air.

"Um?!"

Suddenly, a warning bell rang in Zen Master Caihu's mind.

Before he could even react further, the blazing white divine light, carrying a tail of four or five zhang long burst of flame, slammed into his protective Buddhist rainbow.

"Boom!!!" The incredibly tough Buddhist rainbow shattered like glass, and the divine light and flames rushed straight in, hitting the Zen Master's several-zhang-tall black tiger body solidly.

Immediately afterwards, a loud bang erupted, as if a hundred great bells had been shattered at the same time.

The body that Zen Master Caihu considered his greatest pride in his life, which had already attained the Samadhi of the physical body and was indestructible and indestructible, was now as if it had been hit head-on by an ancient sacred mountain. His huge body flew backward uncontrollably, and a large area of ​​charred marks was blasted into the tiger fur on his body. Although there was no broken skin or bleeding, he was still seriously injured.

"Pfft!"

The giant tiger's body crashed into the surging sea below, instantly creating towering waves hundreds of feet high.

The seawater below seemed to be violently slapped open by an invisible giant hand, briefly revealing the seabed before crashing back in, stirring up a cloud of water mist that lingered for a long time.

Amidst the misty waves, the Buddha's rainbow halo could be vaguely seen spinning rapidly, struggling to stabilize the Zen master's aura. Its light had dimmed considerably, but within this halo, the tiger's eyes remained piercing and its murderous intent undiminished.

Within the Dharma Realm, Ji Ming glanced sideways at the direction from which Yuan Pi Ruyi was rushing from outside the realm. His expression showed no joy, and he murmured, "Such a powerful physical body."

That attack was delivered by my own spiritual treasure, Yuanpi Ruyi. Not only did it get directly blocked by Zen Master Caihu, but it only caused a superficial injury. How can I put it? This Caihu truly lives up to his reputation as an ancient demon who has attained enlightenment; his real strength still lies in his physical body.

Within the Dharma Realm, both Longwan Lao Gaozhen, who had just escaped death, and Gu Yidi, who was still struggling in the mouth of the Star General, were shocked by the aftershocks of the attack outside the Dharma Realm. They began to gather their spirits and reduce their presence.

As Zen Master Caihu looked at the scorch mark on his body, now the size of a coin, his whiskers trembled uncontrollably. A sense of humiliation washed over him, mixed with a vague and inexplicable panic.

The Samadhi of the Physical Body—the physical body is indestructible, the Vajra is immortal, and the true spirit is indestructible. By attaining this Samadhi, one can achieve sainthood in the physical body.

His first achievement was an indestructible physical body. At this level of physical prowess, weapons, water, fire, and poisonous miasma could not harm him in the slightest. Ordinary flying swords and magical treasures striking him were like metal striking stone, at most leaving white marks, but unable to break through his skin and flesh.

This is a state where the physical body has been tempered to its limit, and physical defense has reached its peak.

The Vajra Immortality is something he attained after achieving enlightenment. Even if his physical body is injured, or even if his limbs are severed or his internal organs are pierced, his powerful physical spiritual energy can instantly seal the wounds, prevent the injuries from worsening, and he can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth or rely on his own reserves to make the damaged parts regenerate and heal quickly.

As long as it is not completely destroyed in an instant, it can continuously recover.

In this state of indestructible perfection, the primordial spirit and the "inner landscape of the physical body" formed by the immortal true nature within the physical body are closely integrated.

From then on, the physical body was no longer a simple shell, but an integral whole that was intertwined with and nourished the primordial spirit. This gave the physical body a certain nature of the primordial spirit, enabling it to cope with damage autonomously, and even allowing severed limbs to fly back and regenerate on their own.

However, in that attack just now, this unity of body and spirit was broken by a slight force, which was equivalent to shaking the very foundation of his indestructible and immortal physical body.

Amidst the misty air, the divine light was held in the hand of a figure. A familiar voice rang out, as steady as ever, with an annoying tone, as if everything was under control.

"This time I went to the Cave of the Beauty at the Cliff of Ill-fated Life to pay my respects to the Great Immortal of a Hundred Flowers. The Great Immortal praised my high virtue and profound Taoist teachings and bestowed upon me the Flower Demon Divine Technique." As the mist gradually dissipated, Ji Ming's true face was revealed. His voice grew more stern as he said, "Why must the Zen Master pursue me so relentlessly? Do you truly intend to become my enemy?"

“Lingxu Clown, do you think I don’t know about your dealings with the Ji family?”

"In the past, I have tolerated you many times, even trying to reform you with Buddhist compassion. But now I know that your wicked heart is hard to extinguish, and you are courting your own destruction. This time, I will show you my methods of subduing demons and eliminating thieves."

Without another word, his massive tiger body trembled violently, and all the Buddhist rainbow around him receded into his body. With a roar, he parted the sea currents and saw through the Dharma realm hidden within, which was the same color as the sea waves.

"Open!" he roared, but did not attack Ling Xuzi in the mist.

Instead, he twisted his body and swung his arm, delivering a straight punch—completely devoid of any fancy moves and embodying the essence of an indestructible and immortal physical body—with all its power, fiercely striking the seemingly empty, surging waves below.

The point where the fist struck was precisely the boundary between the Dharma Realm that Ji Ming had created and the real world.

An unimaginable force erupted, which appeared to the outside world as a slight distortion of light and shadow. In fact, the power of the five elements, which forms the foundation of the Dharma realm, was completely disintegrated as if struck by a heavy hammer, with both ruthlessness and precision.

The Dharma realm has been shattered!
Frozen glaciers, frost, and the dark ravines within the boundary that had not yet been expelled poured forth like a flood bursting its banks, rushing towards the seas of the present world.

In an instant, countless glaciers of varying sizes rose from the sea surface, bobbing and colliding with each other, producing thunderous roars. The originally turbulent sea surface became fragmented, as if one had instantly arrived in the far north.

A figure identical to Ling Xuzi in the mist not far away suddenly appeared, its aura fluctuating slightly due to the forced breaking of the Dharma Realm.

Zen Master Caihu's tiger-like eyes, as big as copper bells, were fixed on the "Dharma Realm Spiritual Void Child" who had just appeared, and then suddenly turned to Ji Ming, who was holding the Yuanbi Ruyi in the mist.

"One is true, the other is false?"
Are they all the real bodies?

In an instant, a flash of inspiration struck the Zen master, and the name of a supreme and profound method flashed through his mind like a thunderclap—"Taiyi Hunyuan Yiqi Dishen Huafa".

He had heard that this method was so powerful that it could manifest a body condensed from the primordial Qi of Taiyi in the pure sea of ​​nature. This body was called the True Body of the Wondrous Existence of the Primordial Truth. The original body and the manifest body were of the same origin but different names. They both possessed the unchanging true nature of Suchness, just as the moon and water reflect each other, originally one light; mirror image reflecting each other, originally without two bodies.

No wonder the fairy maiden outside the Red Beauty Cave sent word that Lingxuzi had arrived, and there was also a Lingxuzi presiding over this place in the Dharma Realm.

This Lingxuzi has actually cultivated this supreme profound technique of Taiping Mountain to such a level. Could it be that he can now manifest a true body outside his body that possesses most of his own supernatural powers and magic?

No, this profound method has an extremely high threshold for cultivation and requires immense spiritual strength. Even for a genius like Lingxu Xiaochou, in his past, he would not have been able to enter the path unless he reached the fifth realm. Taiping Mountain would not have given him this method.

In other words, all things considered, this child has only been practicing this esoteric art for about sixty or seventy years.

Based on this calculation, the Yuan Di Miao You True Body he cultivated has not yet fully possessed its own great magical power. In other words, although both bodies are the same person and cannot be seen through, one can determine which body is the Yuan body by its strength.

Before Zen Master Caihu could make a move, Lingxuzi, emerging from the sea mist, stared at Zen Master Caihu, completely ignoring the tense atmosphere, and began to sing, his voice resounding through the clouds:
"Understanding the profound mystery through the three flowers and five energies, one's pure and tranquil nature is like the bright and original body."

Water and fire, not yet in harmony, forge the Ruyi; split the sea, divide the light, and suppress the demon star.

The path of enlightenment in the south opens a new chapter, and the teachings of the people are bathed in divine grace.

I've come east today not for any other purpose, but to kill a tiger and make a Taoist robe from its skin!

As the song ended, Ling Xuzi's figure in the mist suddenly became ethereal.

This body was like a bubble, or a wisp of green smoke, and in an instant it gathered back into one, falling into the three flowers on the top of Ling Xuzi's head, who had just escaped the Dharma Realm and whose aura was still calming down.

Lingxuzi, in his true form, held the Yuanpi Ruyi in his arm and the Relic Porcelain Bottle in his palm. He stood barefoot on a lotus, wearing a crimson robe embroidered with silver flames. On his golden crown, three flowers swayed, and within them, three inches of his primordial body shone with clear light. His aura was perfectly integrated, making Ji Ming appear like a celestial being.

Seeing Lingxuzi display his magical power and show off his divine appearance, even the extremely violent Zen Master Caihu couldn't help but exclaim in his heart, "Truly a divine being!"

At this moment, he couldn't help but persuade him: "My master sent an envoy to apologize many years ago. If you are willing to accept the gift and resolve the feud today, I am willing to offend my master and make him send an envoy again to resolve the feud between our two families."

"A wild and unruly tiger, repeatedly defying my will, unaware that my heart is like a knife, which, once revealed, will never be taken back."
