Chapter 359: The Way of the World! (Subscribe)

This was not the first time that Chen Yuan had heard the term "White Tiger Killer Star".

When he saw Chen Yi again in the secret land of Southern Barbarians, he knew that his swordsmanship was related to killing, and the divine spirit he displayed was still that of a spotted white tiger.

But the "White Tiger Killing Star" mentioned by Fuchen needs to be understood in conjunction with the previous "All Heavens Have No Form".

However, Chen Yuan thought for a while, looked at Fu Chen and said, "I am not proficient in Buddhism, so I don't understand what the master thinks of my second brother?"

Fuchen said: "All appearances are false. If you see that all appearances are not appearances, you have seen the Tathagata."

"When I looked at the various realms of Mount Taizhou, they were just like the flowers in the mirror, all of which were just bubbles. When I saw the donor Chen Yi, I saw him stepping into the realm of Mount Taizhou with his 'True Body of the White Tiger'."

Chen Yuan had a vague understanding in his heart.

Does he mean that his second brother is different from others and poses a threat to the "Pure Land"?

Fu Chen saw his expression, and the smile on his face became even more intense. He put his hands together and said, "Don't mind, benefactor. I came here only to tell you that Chen Yi is here, and there is no other intention."

Chen Yuan looked at him calmly: "Master, you are now one of the ancient Buddhas of the 'Pure Land of Bliss'. Everything you say and do has a deep meaning. If you don't want to say it, I won't force you."

He will just keep it in mind.

Fuchen shook his head and smiled, "You are too polite, but I have another thing to tell you."

Chen Yuan remained calm and silent.

Fuchen continued, "You practice the Six Paths of Reincarnation Sutra, do you know which six paths they are?"

Chen Yuan nodded, still without saying anything.

Ever since the last "Pure Land of Bliss" Dharma Assembly, the "General" had taught him the first level of the "Six Paths of Reincarnation" mantra, so he naturally knew what the Six Paths of Reincarnation were.

It is divided into three good paths, including the path of gods, the path of humans, and the path of Asuras, and three evil paths, namely the path of hell, the path of hungry ghosts, and the path of animals, collectively known as the "six paths".

The first mantra of the "Six Paths of Reincarnation Sutra" is to cultivate the "human path".

However, after Chen Yuan obtained the mantra, he was unable to grasp it and his practice progress was slow.

A few days ago, he had consulted the "General", but did not get an answer. The "General" only told him that the emphasis of the "Six Paths of Reincarnation Sutra" was on comprehension rather than on the realm of cultivation.

"Since you already know, I will not say more," Fu Chen said with a smile, "There is only one sentence - the six paths are divided into good and evil, and also divided into order, and difficulty."

Difficulty?

Chen Yuan frowned slightly. This was indeed something he had not known before.

"Master, do you mean that the order of practicing the Six Paths can be adjusted at will?"

"Of course," Fu Chen nodded and said, "The six paths of reincarnation are just like the five elements of reincarnation. If you are good, you should practice from the good path. If you are evil, you should practice from the evil path. It will be twice as effective with half the effort."

Chen Yuan's heart was slightly moved. He started from the human world. If his current progress was slow, didn't it mean that he should start from the evil world?

So, his nature is "evil"?
Immediately, the deep and dark cave emerged in his mind, and he thought of the inner demon hidden deep in his body.

It is clear whether he is doing good or evil.

Thinking of this, Chen Yuan looked at Fu Chen and said calmly: "If that's the case, then I won't think too much about it."

“I don’t care how fast or slow my practice is, I only care whether it can help me achieve the result.”

As long as he is successful in his cultivation and can retrieve Senior Sister Ling Yinrong's soul, what does it matter if it takes a hundred or a thousand years?

If in his final life, he still hasn't succeeded in his cultivation... that's fine too, he can go to the Netherworld and reunite with his senior sister.

"It's good that you think so."

Fu Chen laughed in silence, shook his head and turned to leave, "When the Holy Mountain is opened, with the blessing of the Wrathful Vajra Lotus Platform, your cultivation will be faster."

Chen Yuan watched him walk slowly along the way, but he disappeared in just five breaths, his face still tense.

a long time.

Chen Yuan finally relaxed, stuck the Wanjun Knife into the ground, and sat back on the tree stump silently.

Yi Mu’s purpose of coming was clear—just for that angry lotus platform.

But he still couldn't figure out the purpose of Fuchen's coming.

"For my second brother Chen Yi? The heavens and realms are formless, but my second brother has a form. So what?"

"What does it have to do with the 'Pure Land of Bliss'?"

Although Chen Yuan knew that his second brother had destroyed the plan of "Pure Land of Bliss" in Tianyuan Continent and caused Zhou Guanwu, Tuxingseng and others to die and be resurrected, but with his current understanding of "Pure Land of Bliss", he did not think that Chen Yi could pose a threat to "General" and others.

However, the fact is - whether it is what Fu Chen said in the last Dharma Assembly or this time, "White Tiger Killing Star" seems to have other deeper meanings.

In addition to the reminder to Chen Yi, what bothered Chen Yuan even more was the words about the order of practicing the "Six Paths of Reincarnation Sutra".

There is a difference in the speed of practicing the "good way" and the "evil way".

"Master should have known this long ago, but he still chose to teach me the cultivation method of 'Humanistic Way' first..."

Is this what Fuchen wanted to say?

After thinking for a while, Chen Yuan let out a sigh: "I'm really not suitable for thinking about these things..."

If Chen Yi were here, he would definitely be able to guess the purpose of Fu Chen's visit.

The order is different, is there some other secret hidden?
Chen Yuan didn't know.

He only knew that his current cultivation was too weak, and his swordsmanship was too weak, especially in this "Pure Land of Bliss".

Just the Arhats and Buddhas he had seen, their cultivation had already broken through the first level, and their skills had also reached the supernatural level.

Especially the "general" and the four Bodhisattvas under the ups and downs, their cultivation is so strong that it is said that they have reached the ninth level of supernatural powers.

Not to mention fighting with them, just a glance from them could freeze Chen Yuan's entire body of swordsmanship.

If it weren't for fate, it would have been impossible for him to temporarily take over the position of the Wrathful Vajra Lotus Platform.

"It's too weak after all..."

Think of this.

Chen Yuan stood up again.

But this time he did not continue swinging the giant sword, but instead performed a set of boxing techniques on the side.

It seems simple, but it seems to contain profound truths.

With just one move, a ball of golden mist swirled around Chen Yuan, like a dream bubble that made him unable to see clearly.

"The way of life requires one to have a sense of purpose, to experience the pain and joy, to endure the ups and downs, and to understand the ever-changing world..."

Meaning comes first, suffering comes second, and tolerance comes first.

Chen Yuan doesn’t care about his own “good or evil” at all, he only cares about improving himself - so, his focus is on himself.

Secondly, he has experienced many hardships since he was a child.

First, there was the imprisonment of Grandpa and Chen Yan, forcing him to fight monsters in the dungeon, then there was the life-and-death teaching forced by Yan Hai of Wuliang Mountain, and then there were Senior Sister Ling Yinrong and the changes in Kyoto Prefecture.

The hardships he has experienced are unimaginable to ordinary people. The prosperity he has seen is already considered the upper class in the world, so all these are considered hardships.

As for the last word “忍”… he was more familiar with it—he had endured enough!

As Chen Yuan was doing boxing, he was also feeling the changes in himself. His mind was clear and pure as he was fluctuating between reality and illusion. The golden mist around him became stronger and stronger, enveloping him completely.

In a trance, his figure moved and changed, and a golden body with three heads and six arms emerged.

Every face was furious and glaring at the world around them.

I don't know when, Fuchen came back, looking at Chen Yuan with kind eyes, with golden light shining in his eyes.

"The angry Vajra, the white tiger killer star... one is the protector of Lingshan, the other is the Taoist master of Daoting. Such a blood connection is truly mysterious."

A smile appeared on Fuchen's face.

Although there are many forms of Tathagata, he does not mind adding a form of Asura.

After all, Lord White Tiger and Shura Dharmakāya both value “killing”!
……

Tianyuan Continent.

Wei Dynasty, Kyoto Prefecture.

Today's Huangji Hall was different from the solemnity of the past. Starting from Emperor Wei, all the court officials standing in the hall had smiles on their faces.

Even Lin Hansong, who was usually serious, smiled, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes.

Not to mention Chen Lixin and Chen Lide behind Zhenbei King Du Qing, they could hardly stop laughing.

"Haha... I knew that Marquis Yingwu couldn't stand loneliness. He even sent a message saying that he was practicing in seclusion in Taixu Dao Sect."

"It's only been a short time, and he has brought me such great joy, hahaha..."

Emperor Wei sat upright on the throne and laughed loudly: "Hundreds of thousands of demon armies were all killed by Marquis Yingwu's sword. Good, very good!"

After hearing this, Liu Gao on the side frowned, and he wanted to laugh but forced himself to maintain his composure.

Xie Jing, who was standing below, heard this and smiled as he stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, can this good news be made known to the world?"

The Emperor of Wei still had a smile on his face. He looked him straight in the eyes and asked, "Left Prime Minister, what do you mean by that?"

In the present Wei Dynasty, matters concerning the Taizhou Mountain battlefield are still only controlled by a small number of people.

Or maybe it's because the Taizhou Mountain battlefield is extremely special, and people with insufficient cultivation and status would only suffer trouble if they knew about it.

Therefore, a thousand years ago, the first Emperor Wei established rules with the ancestors on Mount Taizhou, with the main focus on stabilizing the people's hearts.

As for what Xie Jing just said about letting the world know, Emperor Wei naturally understood the implicit meaning of his words - to reveal the secrets of Mount Taizhou to everyone in the world, and let everyone know that there is another realm above the Tianyuan Continent.

Moreover, Emperor Wei could also imagine the reactions of the people in the seventeen prefectures when they found out.

First there was disbelief, then there was panic, and finally, under a series of measures and policies, things gradually calmed down.

However, this process is likely to disrupt the original Wei Dynasty structure and impact the aristocratic families and sects that have been monopolizing the resources of the Tianyuan Continent.

Originally, because of Chen Yi's destruction of Yuhua Xianmen, the Night Watch had already taken action to eliminate some of the noble families. If they were to use thunderous means to catalyze it, I'm afraid...

"Your Majesty, I say this for two reasons."

"One is to enhance the prestige of our human race. Marquis Yingwu made such a great contribution on the battlefield of Mount Taizhou. If everyone knew about it, it would reduce everyone's previous fear of demons."

"Secondly," Xie Jing paused, looked directly at Emperor Wei and said, "After this period of preparation, the framework of 'educating the world' has been completed in each state."

"There are higher education institutions in the prefecture, secondary education institutions in the county, and schools in each village and town. The courses taught, the Confucian scholars in each school, and the outer sect deacons of each sect have all been initially selected and hired."

"I will use this incident involving Marquis Yingwu to encourage the people of various places to add a martial arts goal in addition to the original imperial examinations, in the hope that more geniuses like Marquis Yingwu will emerge among them."

The voice just fell.

Several great scholars of the time came out with slightly excited expressions, bowed and echoed, "I also have this request."

Then a group of civil officials knelt down.

On the other side, King Du Qing of Zhenbei and King Gongye Jiahong of Zhennan looked at each other and then bowed.

Seeing this scene, Emperor Wei's smile slowly faded, and he tapped the back of the throne beside him as he thought.

Just as he had thought before, he was well aware of the principle that a single move can affect the entire body.

You must know that the situation in the Wei Dynasty is not peaceful at the moment, mainly for two reasons.

One is that Buddhism has begun to be suppressed by Confucianism and Taoism. Behind them seems to be the shadow of the Western Buddhist Kingdom, so the progress of various state governments in dealing with Buddhist temples and monasteries is slow.

Secondly, those noble families that were related to the Yuhua Immortal Sect were purged by the court, causing panic among other noble families.

If we were to vigorously promote "enlightenment" now, coupled with what happened on the Taizhou Mountain battlefield, if the rhythm was lost, all the contradictions in the entire Wei Dynasty would be ignited in an instant.

After thinking it over again and again, Emperor Wei was still a little hesitant.

His eyes involuntarily looked downwards.

Looking down, he saw that everyone in the court was frozen in place.

No matter whether it was the civil officials or the military generals, no one objected to what Xie Jing said, as if their previous struggles and mutual suppression had never existed.

Saw this scene.

Emperor Wei smiled again, a sense of heroism rose in his chest, he suddenly stood up, raised his hand, and said loudly:

"I, it's approved!"

"Since all of you have such confidence, if I continue to hesitate, a hundred years from now, not to mention the posthumous title of a great sage, I will even be unable to maintain my status as an empire."

Hearing this, all the court officials immediately bowed again: "Your Majesty is wise!"

Xie Jing smiled and said, "As your subject, I will do my best to ensure the advancement of education in all prefectures."

The Emperor of Wei finished laughing and looked down at him: "It is not enough to just do your best. Since our Great Wei Dynasty has decided to change, we must not only do it thoroughly, but also make all the people united."

"Officials from all prefectures, night watchmen, and government offices must cooperate in this matter."

"Sir, obey the order."

Not long after, an imperial edict was sent from the imperial city to the seventeen prefectures of the Wei Dynasty.

"The whole world celebrates - today, the heroic Marquis Chen Yi has killed 500,000 demons in one battle at the Taizhou Mountain battlefield, strengthening the prestige of our Wei Dynasty and the prestige of our human race!"

"From today on, each state will add high schools and middle schools, and each village will set up schools. All the people of Great Wei will go to school to learn to read and write, and practice martial arts according to their age. I hope that all the people of Great Wei will be like dragons and live up to their lives!"

The entire decree consisted of only a hundred words, but it was like a hammer, hitting the heads of everyone in the Wei Dynasty.

From the noble families to the common people, everyone was shocked and ecstatic.

Especially those who had heard of the name of the Taizhou Mountain battlefield, began to spread the news to others as soon as they got the news.

"The Taizhou Mountain battlefield was the key to the human race's killing of the demon court and the Hundred Thousand Mountains in the north a thousand years ago."

"According to the orders of several ancestors and the previous Emperor Wei, only martial arts practitioners who have broken through the third level before the age of thirty can go."

"Who can do that? Not to mention going there, you haven't even heard of it, right?"

"Now that the imperial court has issued an edict to educate, the opportunity I've been waiting for has come. As long as there is a talented person among my descendants, then 'one person's success will bring prosperity to the whole family'!"

"It is indeed, the whole world is celebrating!"
