Ascension to the Gods

Chapter 282 Sitting in Solitude, Picking Flowers, Listening to the Thunderous Sound

A hell of knives.

Jiang Jian walked among them, protected by the golden light of the royal palace, and was not disturbed by karma.

Between his pupils.

A frosty white vortex appeared.

Karma fire.

next second.

Jiang Jian stopped and looked at the sinful ghost not far in front of him, his fingers lightly brushing.

A wisp of blazing white flame silently emerged.

The karmic fire silently swept over the sinful ghosts.

In the blink of an eye.

Absorb all their sins and karma!

The source of karmic fire, to an imperceptible degree, increased by a trace.

The sinful ghost, however, had all its sins wiped away and returned to its former appearance. It looked itself up and down, its expression one of extreme horror!
"Thank you, Your Highness!"

The sinful ghost came to his senses, knelt down with a thud, tears streaming down his face, and kowtowed repeatedly to Jiang Jian, "My sins are gone, I can finally be reincarnated!"

A yaksha strode over, first bowing respectfully to Jiang Jian, then taking the sinful ghost into the air and flying towards the vortex of rebirth.

Jiang Jian looked calm.

In the mind's thoughts.

That wisp of karmic fire split into two, and then into three.

In an instant, it transformed into thousands upon thousands of tiny streams of light, surging and sweeping towards the boundless hell of sinful ghosts!

boom!
As soon as these karmic flames appeared, they swept rapidly in all directions at an extremely terrifying speed!
Like a spark igniting a prairie fire, it rose up to the heavens!

Wherever it goes, all the sins and karmic burdens on all the sinful ghosts are completely absorbed, leaving not a trace!

in a blink.

The crimson hell of knives has turned into a frosty white expanse!
More and more sinful ghosts, their sins and karma absorbed by the karmic fire, were restored to their former appearance.

Centered on Jiang Jian, these sinful ghosts knelt down one after another, bowing to Jiang Jian with hearts full of reverence and gratitude.

soon.

These sinful ghosts, having washed away their sins, were taken away by the Yaksha demon soldiers to be reborn!
At this time, one absorbs more karma.

Those thousands upon thousands of karmic flames burned fiercely in hell, their intensity growing ever stronger!

Every strand of frost-white flame, as thin as a hair, swelled into a pillar of fire as thick as a cartwheel!

Countless pillars of blazing white fire swept wildly across the hellish landscape!
Endless karma, all returns to it!
Although the hell of knives is vast and boundless, it contains trillions of sinful ghosts.

But these blazing white flames increased exponentially.

It gradually engulfed the entire hellish mountain of knives!
"Your Majesty! We are running out of manpower!"

A demon descended and knelt before Jiang Jian, its voice urgent, "There are too many sinful ghosts who want to be reincarnated, and billions of little ghosts are not enough!"

Jiang Jian glanced at him but didn't say anything.

Instead, with a flick of his sleeve, he took a step and vanished from the spot!

next second.

Before the vortex of rebirth.

Jiang Jian emerged from the void, gazing calmly at the black and white vortex before him.

He is waiting.

Waiting for the flames of karma to engulf all the sins and karmic burdens of the hell of knives!

In the world of the story of the Ksitigarbha Sutra.

Karmic fire is something elusive and intangible.

Even the heavens above and all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas cannot actively control this thing.

They were extremely cautious in their actions.

Try your best to avoid being entangled in karma and falling into hell.

But here, Jiang was able to actively control the karmic fire!
In this world of stories.

Controlling karmic fire is utterly inconceivable!

Besides.

Jiang Jian noticed this even more.

Only when you perceive with your own mind and see with your own eyes will the world become clear.

Further away, everything was blurry, as if it had never been loaded at all.

Wherever you go, that place becomes incredibly real.

After I left.

The places we once passed through will become blurry again!

Because of this.

Jiang Jiancai arrived at the vortex of reincarnation and stood above the hell of knives.

Every moment, keep a close eye on the raging karmic fire within, preventing it from slipping out of your perception.

As time goes by.

The vast hell of knives was gradually cleared away!
The frost-white pillar of fire, originally the size of a wheel, had long since transformed into an endless, blazing sea of white fire, sweeping across every corner of the hellish mountain of knives and indiscriminately devouring everything in its path!

Click!

A clear and crisp sound came from the depths of one's soul!
Jiang Jian's heart skipped a beat.

Upon careful sensing, he immediately realized it.

His own karmic fire essence, nourished by terror, was actually enhanced!
Although the karma of the hell of knives is all virtual.

But after all, it is a simulation using the divine aura left over from the wonderland.

In essence, it's not entirely false!

Even if it's like Ksitigarbha's staff.

Bring it into the present world.

Its heaven-reaching power has dwindled to a mere fraction.

But for the karmic fire that has never made any progress, it is already quite considerable!

The true source of karmic fire burns fiercely deep within the soul.

The originally frosty white flames gradually changed color, turning into a terrifying bluish-white!

Its rank has truly been elevated!
at the same time.

A hell of knives.

The sins and karmic burdens of countless sinful ghosts have been completely wiped out!
The demons and ghosts came and went, exhausted, sending those sinful ghosts who had been cleansed of their karma to the vortex of reincarnation!
The blazing white sea of fire that filled hell suddenly froze!
The next second, they rapidly converged towards the center.

It eventually turned into a wisp of bluish-white flame and quietly dissipated.

Below the vortex of reincarnation.

Jiang Jian lowered his gaze and looked at his fingers.

A wisp of twisted flame appeared.

As it burned quietly, the surrounding space collapsed silently, revealing dark cracks.

"Do not commit sins, do not be tainted by cause and effect."

"This is the true karmic fire."

Jiang Jian lightly flicked his sleeve, and the bluish-white flames quietly dissipated.

"And one more thing."

His eyes showed contemplation as he took a step forward.

His figure disappeared again.

When it reappears.

Jiang Jian had already fallen into the hell of knives, below the gate.

Here.

They continue to send forth sinful demons in an endless stream.

"In the story."

"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, out of compassion for all sentient beings, willingly remained in Yinshan, thus failing to attain Buddhahood."

“Such a venerable Bodhisattva should have become a Buddha.”

My heart is in turmoil.

Jiang Jian endured the excruciating pain in his soul and forcibly severed a wisp of the karmic fire's origin!
This kind of separation is a true detachment!
Jiang Jian's plan.

Let this wisp of karmic fire remain forever before the hellish mountain of knives.

This ensures that any sinful ghost will have their sins and karma instantly washed away before entering the hell of knives, and will be sent directly to the afterlife!
In this way, the hell of knives will truly be empty!

just.

The boost I received from the karmic fire just now was truly immense.

Even if we separate a little bit at this point.

Compared to before, the progress has increased dramatically and is completely different from what it used to be.

The wisp of bluish-white flame circled around and stopped in front of the hell of knives, twisting and changing, and finally transformed into a giant gate of karmic fire!
now.

All that's needed is to wait for the remaining sinful ghosts to be taken away from the hell of knives and into the vortex of reincarnation.

The great vows made by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva will come true immediately!
after all.

The Hell of Knives is truly one of the eighteen levels of hell.

The Bodhisattva Venerable spoke of "hell".

Although it is not specified which particular level of hell it refers to, or whether it refers to all of hell.

But if it's a mountain of knives or a hell, then it's a vacuum.

To some extent, it has perfectly achieved the vision of "hell never be empty".

As time goes by.

Jiang Jian seemed to realize it.

An indescribable aura emanated from the back of Yinshan Mountain.

"The Chakravartin."

Suddenly, the voice of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva entered my ears.

Jiang's gaze sharpened slightly as the scene before him suddenly shifted.

In the blink of an eye, he left the hell of knives and returned to the back of Yin Mountain, in front of the Bodhisattva.

The Bodhisattva, dressed in a dark Buddhist robe, stepped down from the platform, his eyes devoid of sorrow or joy, gazing at Jiang Jian.

"This karmic fire is not a method you should use."

His words were calm.

It could fall into Jiang Jian's ear.

But it made his mind suddenly tremble!
This moment.

He clearly realized it.

These are the words spoken by the true Dragon Lord of the Sea before his demise.

"All my memories are so real."

"So much so that..."

"I often wonder if the world I live in really exists."

"Or rather."

"It's just a fool's delusion."

As the dragon murmured softly, his consciousness quietly dissipated, ultimately turning into a dreamlike illusion.

Jiang Jian suddenly raised his head and looked at the Bodhisattva.

Deep in my heart, there is always a sense of unreal disconnect.

Are the creatures before our eyes truly just virtual creations?

Or.

It truly existed in another, faraway world.

But Jiang Jian knew that the answers to these questions were simply beyond his reach.

It is very likely that I will never know the truth.

"You have passed the test."

The Bodhisattva finally spoke, "Your actions have surprised me somewhat."

He paused for a moment, then didn't go on to explain the matter further.

Instead, he changed the subject.

"I must leave Yinshan and listen to the thunder."

"From now on, you will guard Yinshan on my behalf and become the master of the Ksitigarbha Hall."

Hear this.

Jiang Jian breathed a slight sigh of relief.

The Bodhisattva swept his sleeves.

The Ksitigarbha Jade Seal appeared, hovering in front of Jiang Jian.

This seal is jet black, depicting the suffering of evil deeds and engraving the myriad aspects of all living beings.

Every moment, a stream of dark light surrounds it, encircling the Ksitigarbha Jade Seal, causing it to radiate a jade-like glow and emit specks of fluorescence.

Jiang Jian stretched out his sleeve and took the Ksitigarbha Jade Seal.

This item looks very light, but it feels quite heavy in your hand.

It feels extremely cold to the touch, like ice and snow.

"The Wonders of Yinshan Mountain"

Jiang Jian's eyes were serious.

In the story's world, this is merely a token from the Ksitigarbha Temple.

But in the real world...

Once you obtain this item, it means that you have truly become the master of the Yinshan Wonderland!
suddenly.

Jiang Jian noticed it.

Behind Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, the majestic Dharma image that reached the heavens and the earth radiated countless rays of light, and golden light of merit swept out, illuminating the sky!
at the same time.

The Bodhisattva before me, with his robes radiating Buddhist light, was about to depart.

"Venerable Bodhisattva."

Jiang Jian suddenly spoke.

The golden light surrounding Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva paused slightly.

Jiang stepped forward, his mind racing, and respectfully bowed before saying, "I would like to learn a supernatural power."

In his opinion.

Since both the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's staff and the Book of Life and Death can be transformed from the illusory into the real, manifesting in reality through the divine aura stored in the wondrous realm.

Then.

In the world of stories, all sorts of strange and wonderful supernatural powers and spells can surely be brought from the virtual to the real world!

If we rely on the Ksitigarbha Jade Seal, we can take the Book of Life and Death.

Then, of the three opportunities I had to transform from the illusory to the real, I only have one left!
Jiang saw clearly.

Their own resource preparation is quite solid.

within a short period of time.

There will be no shortage of treasures that you can use.

not to mention.

Using these treasures mostly consumes divine soul energy.

Even if he possessed ten supreme treasures, given his current state of divine soul, he could only use one or two at a time, and it would be impossible for him to activate them simultaneously.

Thus.

Instead of racking your brains, choose another treasure to take with you.

It would be better to think of another way and learn a supernatural power.

In the real world.

Supernatural powers are extremely rare.

Each acquired supernatural power provides unimaginable benefits to the foundation and reserves of the Divine Palace Realm.

Hear this.

The Bodhisattva turned to the side and looked at Jiang Jian.

Between her slender fingers, she began to pick up fallen petals and leaves, letting them scatter and fall.

A few moments.

Jiang Jian's mind was slightly agitated.

Only then did the Venerable One speak.
