Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin: I Set Taboos in the Heavens

Chapter 224: I see my true nature, and that is achievement!
On the sea, many ships are moving.

These ships are all iron-clad flying wheels, with hulls as strong as steel and traveling at high speeds. There are also many large crossbows on the ships to kill the enemy.

A total of five hundred soldiers were wearing armor and lined up on the armored flywheel. Their morale was very high because their commander, Hong Yi, had already said that anyone who killed a pirate would be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver.

Such a reward is enough for all the soldiers to fight for their lives.

This time, many armies of the Daqian Dynasty, including the soldiers under Hong Yi, set out to thoroughly eliminate the many pirates.

There are many pirates on the many islands surrounding the Daqian Dynasty, posing a huge safety hazard to Daqian's sea voyages, so this naval battle is to eliminate all the pirates in one fell swoop.

Fang Qing sat on a large ship, looking calmly at the excited soldiers.

Countless powers of stars entered his body according to his mind, especially the sunlight, which condensed in the way of King Baoyueguang, cleansing his body and gathering into a pure yang force in his body.

This feeling is very comfortable.

In Fang Qing's hand, there was a big golden spider, which was ten times larger than an ordinary spider, and looked like a kitten.

Its whole body is a greasy and shiny golden color, like golden silk, but it is not as furry as other spiders. Instead, it looks somewhat cute.

The only unlovable thing about it is that it has two long blue teeth on the side of its mouth. They look extremely poisonous and can easily scare other people.

But for Fang Qing, it was nothing.

His Taoism has reached the point where most of the poisons in the world are useless to him. After all, he has taken the Three Lights Divine Water and obtained many rare treasures from heaven and earth that can detoxify. Even if he is bitten by a giant golden spider, he doesn't need to worry.

This big golden spider also has a great origin. Its grandfather is the Golden Spider King, the great master of Rouran and one of the eight great demons in the world. The reason why this big golden spider went out to travel is to avoid its own marriage.

Its grandfather wanted to use the soul-transferring technique to help the golden spider reincarnate and then marry the Rouran prince, so the golden spider escaped and became a girl who ran away from marriage.

It even has its own name, Jin Xuner.

At this time, Jin Xun'er was lying steadily on Fang Qing's hand, greedily absorbing the power of the stars, and making a comfortable sound from time to time.

"It feels so good, Senior. Your cultivation is much better than my grandfather's. I don't have to worry about being captured by my grandfather anymore."

Jin Xun'er said happily, "I want to teach you the Great Compassion Resurrection Sutra, so that I can continue to absorb the essence of the sun and the moon from you."

Jin Xun'er's whole body was lazy, but her spirit left her body and transformed into a girl in golden clothes. There was a bit of innocence, cuteness, and even a bit of hostility between her eyebrows.

The golden-clad girl moved her mind and transformed into a beautiful, graceful goddess sitting on a lotus pedestal.

This goddess holds a lotus in her hand and always has a faint smile on her face. She seems to have concentrated all the love between heaven and earth, and she is like the mother of all living things, bringing incomparable peace to the world.

Anyone who sees this goddess will feel at peace.

"Mother Bodhisattva, Great Compassion Resurrection Sutra."

The yellow-clothed woman, Silver Shark King, who was not far away, looked over and knew what method the big golden spider had used. It was the legendary "Great Compassion Sutra", which was the supreme treasure among the many unique skills of the Great Zen Temple, second only to the Past Sutras, and had the supreme ability to repair the soul.

At this time, Jin Xun'er performed the Great Compassion Resurrection Sutra, showing the appearance of a compassionate mother bodhisattva, and also the appearance of a peerless goddess, making Fang Qing feel a sense of great compassion.

When a monk visualizes such an image of the goddess, no matter how damaged his soul is, it can be recovered.

This is the "rent" that Jin Xuner gave to Fang Qing.

Because Fang Qing can absorb the power of the sun, moon and stars at will, and for a monster like the giant golden spider, the power of the sun, moon and stars is too important. She is willing to teach the "Great Compassion Resurrection Sutra" in exchange for a position to practice under Fang Qing.

Silver Shark King Chan Yinsha showed a bit of envy on her face. Jin Xun'er was a junior and could show a friendly and lovely side. However, she was one of the eight famous demon fairies in the world, so it was naturally impossible for her to do the same thing as Jin Xun'er.

However, she also felt that the Taoist named Fang Qing was too terrifying. The power he absorbed from the sun, moon and stars was boundless, which allowed her to increase her cultivation even from a short distance away. It was more effective than taking the Yuanpin Dzi Bead.

The Yuanpin Dzi Bead of the tiger clam is a holy medicine that can transform one's body and soul. It can help her cultivate to the realm of Martial Saint. And the power of the sun, moon and stars around the great man Fang Qing can greatly shorten this process.

If she practices around this being for a long time, it won't take long for her to cultivate her body to the level of Martial Saint.

"Visualization, visualization, if there are any good visualization methods, please send them all to me. I will accept no one."

Fang Qing spoke to Jin Xun'er, and his words were heard by Silver Shark King and Hong Yi who were not far away.

He himself began to contemplate the compassionate mother Bodhisattva displayed by Jin Xun'er.

The Merciful Mother Bodhisattva is another deity that embodies great compassion and can repair the soul, a supreme means of recovery.

When a person's soul is fighting with others, it is inevitable that it will be damaged. Severe damage may even cause the cultivator to go insane. However, if the soul visualizes the Mother Bodhisattva, it can be restored and gain longer endurance than other people.

Fang Qing was comprehending the image of the Bodhisattva, while his soul extended outward, covering an area of ​​thousands of miles in radius.

He saw that there were still a large number of troops not far away. The commander of this army was called Deng Yuantong, a general under the command of the naval commander Yan Zhen.

Next to Deng Yuantong, there were several Taoists, each wearing a Taoist robe made of Qing cloth and a yellow belt around their waists. They were Taoists of the Fangxian Dao.

The Taoist sects canonized by the Daqian Dynasty include Taishang Taoism, Zhengyi Taoism, and Fangxian Taoism.

The Taoists of Taishang Dao never appear. The Taoists of Zhengyi Dao wear purple belts around their waists, while the Taoists of Fangxian Dao wear yellow belts around their waists, which are very easy to identify.

In today's world, when an army goes out to war, Taoist priests must be brought along, because Taoist priests can observe celestial phenomena, treat difficult and complicated diseases, and guard against water demons and monsters, so they are extremely useful.

The cultivation levels of those Fangxiandao Taoist priests were not high, and even Fang Qing's soul looked at them for a long time, but they didn't know.

Fang Qing's soul continued to flow, and he saw many red-painted ivory warships in another place among the army.

These red-painted tooth ships look like sharks, with shields on all sides and crossbows on top, appearing to be well-equipped.

This red-painted ivory ship belonged to the son of a governor, and was under the command of Wei Lei, the son of Wei Taicang, the governor of the seven provinces of Nanzhou.

The Governor-General of the seven provinces in Nanzhou is under the tutelage of the Crown Prince of the Daqian Dynasty, and Hong Yi is now under the tutelage of Prince Yu.

The Crown Prince and Prince Yu were not on good terms, so Wei Lei looked at Hong Yi with murderous intent in his eyes. After all, as long as the army went out to sea, there would always be opportunities to do something shady, and now was the best time.

Wei Lei wants to do something shady to Hong Yi, and Hong Yi also wants to do something shady to Wei Lei.

"Benevolence and righteousness are for the common people. Killing those high-ranking officials and nobles is benevolence and righteousness."

Fang Qing heard Hong Yi say this to his men.

Obviously, this expedition to eliminate pirates is bound to be turbulent. However, this has nothing to do with Fang Qing.

Although this world is a world where martial arts and immortality coexist, things like suppressing bandits are still not worth Fang Qing's efforts.

Fang Qing comprehended many mysteries on the boat, watching Hong Yi lead his men to the battle, watching him land on the island, and watching him fight with many pirates.

There are experts among the pirates, but none of them are a match for Hong Yi.

After killing a pirate leader named Green Eyebrow, Hong Yi obtained a cassock.

The cassock was dark gold in color, and had some text on it. It was not a martial arts manual, nor a Taoist practice manual, but a scripture about merit.

The cassock says that merit has nothing to do with good or evil. As long as the thoughts are comfortable and free, it is merit.

So, for example, the devil has an extremely evil nature, and killing people according to their nature is also a merit.

After all, the nature of the devil is evil, and by recognizing one's nature, one can attain freedom and become a free devil, equal to the Buddha.

"The process of knowing one's own nature is called merit, and knowing one's nature and doing things so that one's nature can be stretched is called virtue. Merit, virtue, has nothing to do with good or evil."

Fang Qing's soul also saw this theory of merit. If such a theory of merit were placed in the secular world and in mainstream society, it would definitely be criticized and would definitely be considered to be against morality. However, if you think about it carefully, it still makes sense.

Fang Qing pondered his nature. His nature was not evil, but it was not too good either. He was in an orderly camp and would not kill people indiscriminately.

That's his nature.

Knowing one's own nature and acting according to one's nature can be called virtue.

Fang Qing carefully pondered the theory of merit and virtue, and the more he comprehended his soul, the clearer it became.

Not far away, Hong Yi was also thinking. He found that his skills were not enough and he could not see his own nature.

If one cannot even see his own true nature, then there is no question of virtue.

"My practice is still very shallow, I have no merit, and I have no virtue. In the years to come, I must recognize my own nature and act according to my nature, and then I will be successful in everything I do."

Hong Yi was also thinking, and during the process of thinking his mind seemed to be cleansed. Soon his Yin Spirit became stronger and stronger, as if he had taken some magical medicine.

Fang Qing looked at it in amazement.

He took a step and moved into the void.

In the center of the island where the pirates are located is a city. It covers an area of ​​thousands of miles and is guarded by many soldiers.

Such pirates have obviously become powerful. They have built cities and even established a kingdom above the pirates, which seems to be a sign of them wanting to be kings.

It is no wonder that the Daqian Dynasty could not tolerate it and sent a large army to encircle and suppress it.

Fang Qing looked at the many warriors fighting, he took a step and went directly into the city. Although some pirates along the way seemed to have seen Fang Qing, but the next moment, Fang Qing had left, causing some pirates to doubt their lives.

"Did anyone pass by us just now?"

"I didn't see it. Damn it, it can't be a ghost."

"How dare the ghost come out now? Aren't you afraid that our blood and energy will rush out and turn them into ashes?"

"Never mind the ghosts. This damn Wei Lei really thinks that we are their achievements. Damn it, they even have a Taoist priest, a dog Taoist priest from Fang Xian Dao!"

Many pirates roared in anger, because at this moment a woman with a huge sword on her back took out a bow with an arrow on it, and the arrow emitted a very strong smell of gunpowder.

When the arrow flew out, there was a loud bang and the city gate was blown open.

A Taoist from Fangxiandao used a magic arrow to break open the city gate, and then a large number of martial arts masters rushed in, vying to kill the pirates and gain credit.

At the same time, Hong Yi also rushed over.

"kill him!"

Upon seeing this, Wei Lei ordered some of his men to kill Hong Yi, making it look like a pirate killing someone, while he himself entered the city to seize a lot of wealth.

Pirates have a lot of wealth, many of which are valuable to ordinary warriors.

But for Fang Qing, the only thing of value is a Buddha statue.

Fang Qing walked along as if he was in an empty space. He did not kill any pirates, and it was impossible for him to be killed by pirates. He just walked casually to a Buddha statue underground.

This Buddha statue is 16 feet tall and its entire body is red gold. It sits cross-legged on a lotus platform, with one hand hanging down to the ground and the middle and index fingers of the other hand forming a ring, as if the entire universe is embedded in the ring.

This Buddha statue sits alone in the ground. It has neither majesty nor grandeur. There is no Vajra or Bodhisattva beside it to complement it. However, this Buddha statue displays a very peculiar artistic conception, which makes Fang Qing unable to help but have some insights when he sees this Buddha statue.

This Buddha is quite artistic.

Fang Qing's soul enveloped the Buddha statue and he saw a little clear light in the statue. The light was only seven inches long and one finger wide, but it was a complete world!

Small world!

The void within the clear light is a small world, but this small world is too small, so small that it can only hold a book and has no other function.

Coincidentally, there really is a Buddhist scripture in this small world.

This sutra is woven with black gold thread and is impervious to water and fire. The cover shows the shape of a giant Buddha. Like the golden Buddha outside, one of its hands is hanging down to the ground, and the middle and index fingers of the other hand are ringed to form a Dharma seal.

Fang Qing reached out and took out the scripture.

There is no title on the cover of the book, but there are many Buddha statues inside, making various other seals. Each Buddha statue is lifelike and seems to be three-dimensional.

In addition, there is a glowing red spot inside the body of this Buddha statue, which seems to point directly to a certain acupuncture point in the human body.

Fang Qing flipped through the pages one by one, and saw red dots one after another, representing acupuncture points in the human body, such as the "Lingshan" point, the "Diji" point, and so on, a total of one hundred and eight acupuncture points.

"Half of the present Tathagata Sutra is really a good thing."

Fang Qing showed joy on his face.
