This is not how immortals cultivate

Chapter 298: Cutting off the seven emotions and six desires is not just talk
The Golden Wheel of Merit is one of the highest magical powers in Buddhism, symbolizing sacred status, extraordinary abilities and noble virtues. Only those with infinite merit and supreme wisdom can cultivate it.

When Mr. Bai Yue put on the vest of Bodhisattva Guanyin, a circle of golden wheel of merit appeared behind him.

As far as Xiang Yuan knew, the Golden Wheel of Merit was not exclusive to Buddhism. The gods of Taoism could also cultivate this magical power. For example, when he put on the skin of Emperor Zhenwu, there was also a huge halo behind him.

This thing has many names, spiritual light, round light, body-enhancing light, etc., because Buddhists are very good at showing off and making a big scene, their Golden Wheel of Merit has the best appearance, is the most widely circulated, and is a benchmark in the industry, so the small light circle behind the gods is uniformly called the Golden Wheel of Merit.

In a nutshell, the Golden Wheel of Merit, like the mount of a god, is a symbol of status.

Whether it is the Heaven or Mount Lingshan, parking spaces are limited and seniority is strictly enforced. Not everyone is entitled to an exclusive parking space, and not everyone can drive a luxury car. A young monk like Master Xuan Ji cannot do that.

How can a small person like you get such a big golden wheel of merit?
Xiang Yuan exclaimed it was outrageous, rubbed his eyes, and soon discovered the clue.

The Golden Wheel of Merit is genuine. Its shape, appearance and aura are incomparable to ordinary things, so there is no possibility of it being counterfeit.

Moreover, it was huge and extremely heavy, and Zen Master Xuan Ji had a great difficulty in carrying it, and he relied entirely on his orthodox Buddhist practice to support him. It was obvious that this was not a great supernatural power that he cultivated himself.

This object is about two meters in diameter and is shining with golden light all over, like a small sun. The edge of the golden wheel is inlaid with countless fine scriptures, and it sheds golden light, containing endless Buddhist truths.

There are countless tiny golden lights flickering inside, like stars and as numerous as the grains of sand in the universe. Each point of light represents an accumulated merit.

To achieve so many merits, Zen Master Xuan Ji could not earn them even if he spent all his wealth helping old ladies cross the street every day.

The case has been solved. The opportunity here is this golden wheel of merit!

Once the Golden Wheel of Merit appeared, it exuded endless pressure and a peaceful aura that saved all living beings. No matter whether you were willing or not, wherever the golden light went, you would be saved. Zhu Ban and Qu Rou were so overwhelmed that they could only barely protect themselves, let alone escape.

Zhu Ban was fine. The Zhu family's inherited way of fighting and killing seemed ruthless, but in fact, humanity was indispensable. He was suppressed by the Golden Wheel of Merit, and only his breath was disordered, but there was no big deal.

Qu Rou was in a miserable situation. She had the aura of a fox spirit and when the golden light shone on her, her legs began to tremble and she was in danger of being caught by Gao Lu and used as a mount.

"My two donors, you may not believe it, but this item is predestined for me. The three of us came here to take this opportunity to subdue demons and monsters, and it is not targeting you two donors." Zen Master Xuan Ji came over carrying the golden wheel and stood between Xin Yanzi and Taoist Priest Zi Yang.

The golden wheel on his body was as heavy as a mountain. He was exhausted after just one sentence. He glanced at Taoist Zi Yang and asked him to continue.

"Manager Qu, Commander Zhu, you two may not know that this small cave is the inheritance of the great masters of Buddhism and Taoism. It suppresses the great demons from outside the domain and has been sealed for who knows how many years..."

Taoist Priest Zi Yang stroked his beard and said, "The opening of the small cave in Qilin Mountain is indeed an opportunity for Baiyun Villa and Linguan Zhu Clan. But before that, the three of us must reseal the great demon here, otherwise the demon will be born and there will be endless troubles."

"So that's how it is. Thank you for your guidance, Taoist Priest." Qu Rou suddenly realized and bowed.

"If it weren't for the Taoist's guidance, I would have insisted on my own way and made a big mistake." Zhu Ban nodded.

The Golden Wheel of Merit was so big and so reasonable that it made people want to sit down and have a good talk. Qu Rou and Zhu Ban had been in the martial arts world for a long time. Regardless of whether the big demon mentioned by the two Taoists and the monk was real or fake, Zen Master Xuan Ji had a ferocious look on his face as he carried the Golden Wheel of Merit, and his hand might slip at any time, so they had to believe it even if they didn't want to.

As for spiritual practice, it is not shameful to be a coward when you go out.

Seeing that the two were reasonable and easy to talk to, Taoist Zi Yang nodded and glanced at Xin Yanzi again.

They are all powerful people, we can't let them be bad guys all the time.

Xin Yanzi failed to paddle, sighed with regret, looked at the place where Xiang Yuan and others were hiding, bowed and said: "Fairy Shang, I am so shameless to ask you to show up, I hope you will not refuse."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shang Qingmeng walked out with a frosty face.

It's not targeting anyone, I'm just in a bad mood. Every time I meet Xiang Yuan, Zi Ping is there with her butt sticking out. It was a misunderstanding once, but can it be a misunderstanding every time?
Besides, Ziping admitted herself that she took the initiative to seduced Xiang Yuan.

There are a lot of people outside, so for the sake of Jian Xinzhai's face, I'll go back to the mountain gate, close the door and deal with you slowly!

Shang Qingmeng didn't care about Xin Yanzi and the others. She was jealous and her face became colder the more she thought about it.

Seeing her expression of surprise, Xin Yanzi hurriedly praised her and introduced her to his two teammates, "This bright, dignified, and elegant goddess is Fairy Shang of Jianxinzhai. She has cut off all emotions and desires and obtained the supreme sword power. I am far inferior to her with my little Taoist skill. This time, if Fairy Shang can help us subdue the demons, we will be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort."

"What, but the disciple of Su Ran Sword Master?"

"Incredible, incredible. Although I am far away in the Baojing Temple in Southern Jin, I have long heard of the great name of the Sword Master. A good teacher produces excellent students. Since Fairy Shang has acquired the supreme sword art, I think Jianxinzhai must have another Sword Master. Two masters in one family, how majestic."

"Yes, yes, but my Qingyun Sect is no good."

"The Qingxu Sect is no different."

The three martial arts elders boasted as shamelessly as they could. Which junior could stand such a test?

If it were someone else, their face would have flushed red, and they would pat their chests to express that the benefit of exorcising demons would last for generations, and today no one else could do it but them, and then they would howl and raise their swords to rush towards the big devil.

Shang Qingmeng was obviously not among them, and his cold expression remained unchanged.

"..." x3
"This woman has such a cold temper."

"A gentleman deceives with tricks, a villain lures with benefits, both have their own way of treating the disease, but this woman is neither happy with things nor sad with herself, and her mind is firm, what should I do?"

"To sever the seven emotions and six desires is not just talk. This woman has no desires and only the sword in her heart. It may not be easy to ask her to take action."

Xin Yanzi and the other two communicated with each other, but they were all at a loss as to what to do.

Xiaodongtian is a heritage of both Buddhism and Taoism, and has some connection with the Qingxu School, Qingyun Sect, and Baojing Temple.

The three ancestors left a will, the small cave was used to suppress the big demon from outside the domain, and opening it is not a good thing, as it means the big demon is ready to break free from the seal, and later generations are needed to reinforce the seal.

Xin Yanzi and the other two had no idea about the identity of the great demon or how long he had been sealed in the small cave. They only knew that this was the ancestral teaching and they had no choice but to come.

Because they were not sure about the situation of the seal, the three of them agreed that the more helpers the better, and that they should not assume that everything was safe just because they had the Golden Wheel of Merit.

Since it concerns the lives of all people in the world, it won’t be wrong to be cautious.

Zhu Ban and Qu Rou have average cultivation levels and can barely help out, so they can be persuaded with some principles. Shang Qingmeng, however, is different. Xin Yanzi has duelled with her and knows how powerful she is, so he must strive to get her to be a helper.

Seeing that there was no good solution, Xin Yanzi simply told the truth and explained the ancestral teachings of the three families and the real purpose of arriving here.

Qu Rou and Zhu Ban did not believe these words at all. They talked about benevolence and morality but were actually full of thieves and prostitutes. They had seen too many such noble and upright people.

Shang Qingmeng believed it. She practiced with Su Ran Jian Zun and often saw her master slaying the outer demons with his sword and expelling the evil demons from Qian Yuan Realm. She also knew that Qian Yuan Realm was not as peaceful as it seemed. Including Su Ran Jian Zun, several seniors had been fighting against the outer demons.

"Jianxinzhai practices both Buddhism and Taoism, and eliminating demons and defending the way is one of the principles of our sect. Now that a great demon has broken the seal and appeared in the world, I will naturally help with my sword." Shang Qingmeng said lightly.

Xiang Yuan protected Shang Qingmeng in front of him. He was stunned when he heard the words and said in a voice transmission: "Big sister, there is a saying that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Let's not talk about whether what these three guys said is true or not. Even if it is true, with such a big golden wheel, they can fight demons and defend the way by themselves. It is not your turn to rush to the front."

On the side, although Qin Zhaorong did not hear Xiang Yuan's voice transmission, she also agreed with it and nodded.

Shang Qingmeng shook his head slightly and said in a voice transmission: "If Master were here, he would do the same."

After hearing what she said, Xiang Yuan couldn't say anything else, so he took Zi Ping and the others to cool off.

The masters of the Tongyou stage formed a team to fight demons, so these ants of the Huashen stage would not join in the fun.

He failed to leave as Shang Qingmeng held his shoulders.

"You are not allowed to go!"

“Why, I just became a god…”

"You are not allowed to be with Zi Ping."

"..."

Xiang Yuan rolled his eyes when he heard that. He thought Shang Qingmeng would say, 'I know your abilities and that you are qualified to participate in this battle', or 'As the sect leader's wife, you should take it as your responsibility to eliminate demons and defend the way of righteousness, just like me and my master', and so on.

Is this the result?

Fairy, is there something wrong with your focus?
Xin Yanzi and the others looked at Xiang Yuan curiously. To give Shang Qingmeng face, they said nothing, but the meaning was clear in their eyes.

What level are you at? Why do you want to team up with us?
Shang Qingmeng didn't explain anything, and Xiang Yuan was too lazy to explain either. He said a lot of nonsense, but no one would believe him. It would be worse if they did, as he would be arranged to be at the front.

He clenched his fist and coughed lightly, then used the face of Lingyu Jushi, called himself a junior, took out the contaminated Guanshan Seal, and handed it to Zhu Ban beside him.

Zhu Ban got the Guanshan Seal, his eyes suddenly shrank, and he said in a trembling voice: "This is the item that my brother Zhu Dang used to cultivate both his body and soul. Where did you get it from?"

"So that all the seniors know that the Baichuan Alliance..."

"That fellow got a blood-stained long sword, practiced magic skills, polluted people's bodies, destroyed people's magic weapons, and even devoured the Zhu clan's master..."

"I and others were also there at the time. If that guy hadn't gone mad and suddenly flew away with a sword, his life would have been in danger."

"I searched everywhere and found this magic weapon. The opportunity to inherit the Taoist sect in the floating island was taken away by that guy. A stone screen was hollowed out, and I don't know what treasure it is..."

Xiang Yuan explained the situation at that time, sighed and shook his head, feeling sorry for Zhu Dang. Putting aside the opportunity to see the body of the jade, everything else was right, seven true and three false, and there was also a witness Qin Zhaorong supplementing, which immediately attracted the attention of Xin Yanzi and the other three.

The three of them looked at each other, all with serious expressions.

"The inheritance of the Baichuan League is not a magic skill. Jiang Luo got the blood knife and came to this place..."

"It's bad. The small cave was not opened today. The aura of the devil has been leaked long ago. The devil sealed this place himself and sent the magic weapon away. We are one step too late."

"Oh no, there's still Xiang Xinyan!"

"Hurry up and find the sealed place..."

The three of them became more and more frightened as they talked, and they looked for the portal to the teleportation array on the spot. Following Xiang Yuan's kind directions, they headed straight towards the teleportation array.

In order to avenge Zhu Dang, Zhu Ban decisively formed a team and joined. Qu Rou had no interest in participating, but had to follow due to her low status.

Xiang Yuan walked beside Shang Qingmeng, tilting his head to look at the golden wheel of merit shining beside him. He saw that Zen Master Xuan Ji was not only fat, but also very weak. He began to pant after walking a few steps. He kindly stepped forward and said, "Senior, this thing is extremely heavy. Let me give you a hand."

The Golden Wheel of Merit is nice, how about I carry it?
Zen Master Xuan Ji smiled slightly and said, "Donor, this item is a treasure of Buddhism. It cannot be moved unless you have a Zen heart or someone who has a great affinity with the Buddha."

There's nothing wrong with that. Although I'm not familiar with your Buddha, I'm very familiar with Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, and I've often discussed his Zen with him.

Xiang Yuan put his long hair in a bun, took out a monk's hat and put it on. Relying on the face of Lingyu Lay Buddhist, he said without any guilt: "To be honest with you, senior, I am Lingyu Lay Buddhist of Jianxinzhai. I know a little about Buddhism and I have some Zen mind."

Seeing that it was one of his own, Zen Master Xuan Ji smiled even more kindly, but still shook his head to express his refusal.

As I said, you are in the Spirit Transformation Stage, so just stand aside. The Golden Wheel of Merit is too heavy for you to lift.

After being rejected twice in a row, Xiang Yuan no longer insisted. He sent a message to Zi Ping, asking her to take people to guard the teleportation array. If any accident occurred, let Qin Zhaorong deal with it according to the situation.

A cold snort was heard.

Xiang Yuan didn't understand what was going on. He thought that he had never offended Ah Ping, so he turned to Qin Zhaorong and repeated the original words.

I got a snort and an agreement to meet at three o'clock tonight.

I'm afraid that won't work. It's the middle of the night and your senior sister hasn't gone to bed yet. I'm too busy to find time. How can I find you?
Xiang Yuan murmured in his heart, feeling that life was not easy. It was another day when the sect leader's wife was teased.

Should I tell the sect leader? It's so depressing!

As for the fact that the current sect leader is Menchuang Sword Master, who can live at least another hundred years after regaining his youth, and Shang Qingmeng's ascension to the position is a long way off, Xiang Yuan simply ignored it. It doesn't matter who the sect leader is, as long as he is the sect leader's wife.

Everyone walked into the portal. Except for Xiang Yuan, all the members were masters of the Tongyou period. It was a luxurious lineup.

Zen Master Xuan Ji walked slower and slower. Xiang Yuan was afraid that when he entered the teleportation array, the people would pass through but the Golden Wheel of Merit would be stuck and not pass through, so he kindly helped to support him.

The weight he lifted was as heavy as a mountain. It was only because of his natural strength that he was able to carry the weight. If it were anyone else in the field, they might not be able to lift it.

Zen Master Xuanji's expression froze, and he slowly turned around to look at Xiang Yuan, sizing him up and down, and said incredulously: "Just now, I was shortsighted, but you are a man of high aptitude, you have transcended in one thought, you are proficient in Buddhism, and you have a deep Zen mind."

Xiang Yuan: “…”

Fat donkey, if you don't know how to use the idiom, don't use it, let someone who knows how to use it. Is it appropriate to use such a bad word as "superior and virtuous" to describe the nun?

That is to say, it means that you are magnanimous to someone and not petty. If it were the real Lingyu layman in person, he would be a superior person and magnanimous, and would definitely not let you go.

Zen Master Xuan Ji wanted to say something, but Xiang Yuan didn't want to pay attention to him. After passing through the portal, he obediently protected Shang Qingmeng in front of him.

The Tongyou stage is forming a group of extraterritorial demons, and he, who is in the Huashen stage, will not join in. At most, Shang Qingmeng is in the front and he can support from the back, but there can be no more.

After Xiang Yuan stepped into the portal, the scene before him made his heart tighten.

The light faded, and the figures of the people reappeared. What came into view was a bloody ruin. The bloody smell was thick everywhere, and the broken walls and ruins were dyed red by the blood light. The blood mist was thick and eerie.

Broken weapons and torn armor were scattered on the ground, and occasionally some dried bloodstains could be seen, dark red and black. These traces silently told of the brutal battle that had taken place here. Every brick and stone, every piece of debris was whispering, telling of that bloody past.

Xiang Yuan frowned. He was familiar with this scene. The laws of heaven and earth here were polluted and were no longer what they used to be.

boom!
The silent waves swept over, ignoring the defense of magic weapons, and with extremely strong impact force, they directly hit the souls of everyone.

The gap between the Tongyou period is clearly revealed at this moment.

Some of the better ones, like Shang Qingmeng, swayed slightly, and stood straight, like a sharp sword out of its sheath, blocking the attack on the Yuanshen with the heart of swordsmanship. Some of the worse ones, like Qu Rou and Zhu Ban, turned pale in an instant, with large amounts of cold sweat oozing from their foreheads, staggering backwards, and almost unable to stand steadily.

Qu Rou clenched her teeth, and although her body was trembling, she managed to keep her body steady and maintain her graceful demeanor. Zhu Ban knelt on one knee, supported his hands on the ground, and gasped heavily. It was obvious that his soul was badly shaken by the impact.

Xiang Yuan's situation was also not optimistic. The little spirit transformation stage cultivator's face turned red, veins bulged on his forehead, his eyes rolled back, and he almost fainted, then took a few steps back.

Failed to withdraw.

He was held down by Shang Qingmeng.

"Stay by my side and don't go looking for Zi Ping!"

"..."

No, sister, this is called acting. Why are you mentioning A Ping again for no reason?
Xiang Yuan secretly complained that Shang Qingmeng kept talking about A Ping in front of him all day long. It was Shang Qingmeng who told him that he and A Ping really had a relationship.

boom!
A silent loud noise filled everyone's heart. In the distance where the blood was most intense, a huge black shadow could be vaguely seen slowly crawling. The laws of heaven and earth in the bloody space suddenly became chaotic and violent.

Then, a pair of blood-red eyes lit up in the darkness, staring straight at everyone.

Seeing these eyes, everyone seemed to see a blood-red haze sweeping over, countless faces flashed between heaven and earth, and the whispers became more and more intense, like the weeping of ghosts and gods, making people feel exhausted and unable to muster the strength to struggle.

"Amitabha!"

Zen Master Xuan Ji stepped forward and stood in front of everyone. With every step he took, golden lotuses blossomed under his feet. The golden wheel of merit on his shoulder was dazzling, and the golden light sprinkled down, forcing back and dispersing the pervasive whispers.

The golden wheel rotates, and the sound of Sanskrit is heard, as if countless Buddhas are chanting in low voices. Although the voices are soft, they penetrate people's hearts and keep their minds pure. People are not afraid of demonic sounds penetrating their ears, and are not afraid of filth and sin.

Wherever the golden light went, evil spirits retreated, monsters bowed their heads, and the chaotic laws of heaven and earth in the bloody space also retreated, not daring to fight with it.

The chaotic laws of heaven and earth retreated, the ruins lost their bloody haze, and revealed their original appearance.

When everyone saw that the Golden Wheel of Merit subdued the demon, their courage grew and they all stepped forward to protect Zen Master Xuan Ji.

Shang Qingmeng was an exception. The silly husband stood there with a fairy-like aloofness on his face. Xiang Yuan called her stubborn and pulled her to his side.

Zen Master Xuan Ji walked forward quickly carrying the golden wheel. After more than ten steps, two figures appeared in front of him, blocking the road.

Xiang Xinyan from Baichuan League and Wu Pan from Baiyun Villa.

may be.

The appearance of the two men changed drastically, and their bodies became demonized to varying degrees.

Xiang Xinyan is three meters tall. Surrounded by thick black smoke and fog, only a rough outline of a human figure can be seen. His face is unclear under the black fog, with only a pair of ferocious red eyes and a grinning red mouth.

He came dragging a rusty broadsword, which was nearly three meters long, completely disproportionate to his body size. It was too big to be used as a weapon and too cumbersome to be used as a magic weapon.

Wu Pan next to him was also three meters tall, holding a huge black-bladed axe in his hand, with strong muscles, blood-colored lines all over his body, red eyes, and black hair that was scattered like spikes, giving off the ancient aura of a wild beast.

This freighter was extremely lucky. As soon as he entered the small cave, he was given a big gift package from the Heavenly Demon. He was filled with evil thoughts, his soul became demented, and he became one of the Heavenly Demon's thugs.

"Xiang Xinyan actually invited the Iron Sword of the Baichuan League to come here..."

Taoist Ziyang frowned slightly. "This sword was passed down in ancient times. It can suppress mountains, rivers and rivers. It is said to have the ability to suppress evil, exorcise demons and subdue dragons. It is the treasure of the Baichuan League. The Southern Jin Dynasty spends a huge amount of money every year to ask it to suppress the waters to prevent the rivers from changing their course."

What an awesome look!

Xiang Yuan nodded repeatedly after hearing this and turned to look at Qu Rou, hoping that she could explain the magic weapon in Wu Pan's hand to him before the fight.

Qu Rou looked at the unconscious Wu Pan, seeming to be heartbroken and mourning, and murmured: "The thing in Elder Wu's hand is a rare item he obtained in his early years. I don't know where it came from, and I don't know its name. After he made sacrifices and refined it, he regarded it as a treasure and called it the Pan Bone Axe!"

Look far ahead.

He picked his ears.

Please explain clearly, what axe are you talking about?

Pangu Ax!
