The God of Heavens

Chapter 434 Great Salvation! Great Liberation! Great Deliverance!
A pure Yang Buddhist pagoda of the highest quality, a treasure-level artifact, actually appeared on the first level of this secret realm. No one knows how much Nine Yang Holy Water was used to transform it.

Lin Yu raised his hand and grabbed the pagoda, named "Prajna Wonderful Truth Pagoda," which fell into his hand.

With a slight sense, he understood its abilities: it could release purifying Buddhist light to dispel evil spirits, and it could also transform into a physical pagoda to suppress all things, possessing both offensive and defensive capabilities.

This pagoda is a rare and precious ancient treasure of Buddhism, a symbol of solemnity, purity, and protection.

"Hmm, there's also a Buddhist supernatural power used to refine the pagoda?"

After collecting the pagoda, an ancient scripture, neither gold nor silk, came into view. It turned out to be a supreme Buddhist supernatural power, the Pure Light of Lapis Lazuli!
"So that's how it is. This Prajna Wonderful Truth Pagoda is a Buddhist treasure. Without Buddhist techniques and methods, it cannot be refined at all."

Otherwise, even a master from the Longevity Realm wouldn't be able to refine it into a Dao artifact unless it were destroyed and returned to its original state as raw material.

Lin Yu observed for a long time, then suddenly shook his head.

"Let's go, let's keep moving forward."

Having acquired the pagoda, the three entered the next portal.

Above this gate, there are numerous forbidden spells, and a pagoda-shaped mark, identical to that of the Prajna Wonderful Truth Pagoda.

Lin Yu understood, activated his Buddhist light, and summoned the pagoda, quickly opening the gate.

Hula hula!

As soon as the treasure hall opened, a beam of golden light shot out, transforming into a huge fist that slammed into Xuanlong's eyes, startling him into retreating repeatedly.

The golden light then shot out and instantly condensed into a giant golden figure, sixteen feet tall.

His muscles were bulging, his skin was bronze, and he exuded a powerful explosive force. He wielded a strange iron staff with one end crescent moon and the other a shovel, and he slashed down at Lin Yu.

The immense force stirred the air, cascading down like a thousand-foot waterfall.

"What is this? A Buddhist puppet?"

Lin Yu could tell at a glance that this golden giant was actually a small puppet, a golden man the size of a fist.

However, the colossal, powerful image that materializes is enough to awe people and possesses immense strength.

However, this giant posed no threat to him. With a swift movement of his left hand, radiating brilliant Buddhist light, he instantly grabbed the giant.

Influenced by the Buddha's light, the giant roared fiercely and gradually shrank.

Rumble!
Soon, seventeen golden rays flew out from the Buddha's light again, transforming into seventeen golden figures of different shapes and appearances.

Some of the golden statues had very long eyebrows, some had long arms, and some had long legs...

Including the previous golden statues, there are a total of eighteen.

These eighteen golden figures, their powers interconnected, actually formed a large formation, slowly encircling the area.

"What a magnificent formation of the Eighteen Bronze Men! But a puppet is still just a puppet!"

Lin Yu activated the pagoda, which instantly tore apart the great formation and emitted an immense suction force, suppressing the eighteen golden figures.

Subsequently, the eighteen golden figures revealed their true forms.

They were all fist-sized golden puppets, exuding the scent of sandalwood, bald, clothed but with bare chests, giving them a distinctly foreign feel.

Their bodies were covered with many distorted characters, made of some unknown material.

However, it is clearly an extremely powerful puppet.

"It's another magical artifact from a Buddhist sect outside the region. The Eighteen Arhats can devour celestial demons on their own to increase their power. The more celestial demons they devour, the greater their power becomes."

After Lin Yu suppressed them, he quickly understood their purpose.

"Good treasure. Place it in the pagoda. After you capture the Heavenly Demon, go to the first floor and get beaten up by the Eighteen Bronze Men. Only those who can withstand the attack can enter the next floor."

Lin Yu quickly made clear arrangements for them and continued on his way.

This is clearly the smaller one, used only for testing purposes.

Further on, Lin Yu soon discovered eighteen top-grade magical artifacts.

"As expected, in ancient times, treasures were so worthless. Our world has declined!"

Lin Yu sighed and collected the Buddhist artifacts.

"You two, each of you can have one!"

Lin Yu gestured for the two children to choose for themselves, and with a flourish of his wealth, he waved his hand.

"Ah! Thank you so much, sir!"

"Long live the master!"

Xuanlong and Bingyi cheered and rushed forward, each quickly choosing a treasure they liked.

"Well, what is that?"

Lin Yu's expression shifted, and his gaze fell upon the stone door at the end of the main hall, engraved with the swastika Buddhist seal, leading to the third level.

The place was empty except for a huge white jade disc standing in the center, over three zhang high, warm and radiant.

At the top of the jade disc are five large characters written in ancient Sanskrit: "Great Salvation Zen Light!"

It turned out to be one of the three thousand great paths of Buddhism!

The Great Salvation Technique!

The wall is covered with dense Sanskrit characters, each radiating a soft golden light, flowing and seemingly containing boundless wisdom, courage, generosity, and compassion.

A tranquil, peaceful, yet vast and solemn atmosphere permeated the entire space.

Another gentle barrier shrouds the path to the third level.

Only by fully comprehending the true meaning of the Great Salvation Zen Light inscribed on the jade disc and resonating with it can the barrier dissipate.

Lin Yu stood quietly before the wall, his eyes gleaming with wisdom, his heart peaceful, and his compassion overflowing.

"This Great Salvation Zen Light is truly profound and extensive, opening up another kind of method. It ranks first in bewitching people's hearts. Even the Demonic Sect's Soul-Capturing Technique and Mind-Bewitching Technique are far inferior." "This great method is the supreme method of saving people's hearts. It uses one's own compassion, courage to give generously, and heart of great benevolence... to condense Zen Light and save all sentient beings."

Lin Yu, with his profound understanding, quickly grasped the mystery.

The great Buddhist teachings do not rely on external forces, nor on the primordial energy of heaven and earth or the true energy of the five elements. Instead, they directly gather one's own compassion, generosity, benevolence, and other good thoughts, converging them into Zen light to influence others.

Even the most vicious person has good intentions, but they are masked by evil thoughts.

However, mastering this supernatural ability is extremely difficult, incredibly difficult.

Because this supernatural power cannot be obtained with the help of any external force, it relies purely on one's own mind.

True qi and elixirs are all useless.

However, Lin Yu himself was already at a high level of cultivation, and he also cultivated Buddhist supernatural powers from many worlds, so he was quite proficient in this kind of spiritual path.

Soon, beams of Zen light shone down, and the celestial demons within the Five Prisons Cauldron were successively converted.

They were no longer the menacing figures lurking in the black mist; instead, each one had a peaceful expression and radiated Buddhist light, sincerely praying inside the cauldron.

Lin Yu also came up with a unique idea: he used the great supernatural power of "mind-to-mind transmission" to impart the Great Salvation Zen Light to the already converted Heavenly Demon.

The more demons there are, the stronger the power of prayer becomes; this power can then be transformed into Zen light, making it easier to guide other beings.

Later on, Lin Yu hardly needed to exert any effort. Hundreds of thousands of converted demons would pray together and release Buddhist light, which would then convert other demons on their own.

It's like a snowball rolling downhill.

Inside the cauldron, Xuanlong and Bingyi were watching the many demon kings who had been converted:
Clad in robes, they were free from demonic influence and sat cross-legged in the void, sincerely repenting.

"We are burdened with grave sins, but fortunately, Fellow Daoist Lin Yu enlightened us and saved us from this sea of ​​suffering! From now on, we are willing to go through fire and water for you to atone for our sins..."

As the Demon King prayed, a golden rainbow shot out from above its head—

This pale golden power of will is equivalent to the power of will generated by hundreds or even thousands of ordinary heavenly demons.

The two were shaken and trembling, their hearts filled with fear: How terrifying, how creepy!
This kind of supernatural power that can distort the mind is more frightening than straightforward destructive power!

Soon, the light of universal salvation emanating from Lin Yu's body and the radiance of the jade disc complemented each other and merged into one.

hum!
The jade disc trembled and slowly sank into the ground, revealing the passage behind it.

Upon entering the third hall, one finds that the space is small and the furnishings are extremely simple.

However, not far away, a great Buddha sat with his eyes lowered, a precious wheel floating behind his head, slowly turning, containing the supreme artistic conception of the turning of mountains and rivers and the changing of the sun and moon.

A solemn and dignified atmosphere permeated the air, inspiring awe and deterring any rash actions.

However, the skin of this Buddha statue was already dry and shrunken, making it a desiccated corpse.

He had long since passed away, and it is unknown why he passed away here.

As soon as Lin Yu had a thought, the Great Salvation Zen Light flowed out from behind his head and shone on the treasure wheel.

In an instant, the Buddha's body shone with golden light, and a powerful thought soared into the sky!

The Buddha statue slowly raised its head, its dry eye sockets seemingly regaining their light as it looked at Lin Yu.

"Young friend, you are destined for this calamity... Your fate has been sealed long ago. Do not act rashly. Protect your foundation, and you will prevail in the end..."

An ancient and compassionate thought entered his heart, and countless golden Buddhist essences surged into Lin Yu's sea of ​​consciousness like a torrent.

He was shocked and was about to express his gratitude when the Buddha had already lost all its breath and the divine light in its eyes had dissipated.

It seems that everything just now was merely a lingering thought from eternity, instinctively discerning the laws of cause and effect and recounting the cause and effect.

"This……"

Lin Yu was stunned, then overjoyed—

It turns out that what this great Buddha statue conveyed was actually the three supreme principles of Buddhism:

Great Salvation Technique! Great Liberation Technique! Great Deliverance Technique!

"What a stroke of luck!"

He felt the vast and profound true meaning, and formed a hand seal. Streams of sacred golden light flowed from his fingertips, illuminating the hall with a clear light.

Within the golden light, thousands upon thousands of thumb-sized golden Buddhas emerged, each lifelike, fluttering around the forest and radiating boundless Buddhist light.

The instant he unleashed his Buddhist light, concentric spatial rifts appeared behind his head, from which golden Buddhist power surged forth like a torrent, directly empowering him—

He actually opened the passage to the Buddhist realm with the supreme Buddhist teachings!

The immense power of Buddha transcends time and space, continuously pouring forth.

This supernatural power is one of the top twenty liberation techniques among the three thousand great paths of Buddhism!
It possesses unparalleled destructive power, binding power, and a power to bewitch and liberate people's hearts.

"Master, what's wrong?" Xuanlong and Bingyi asked with concern.

"It's alright." Lin Yu shook his head.

In that very short time, he obtained the three great Buddhist paths: the Great Salvation Technique, the Great Liberation Technique, and the Great Deliverance Technique!
Furthermore, the great Buddhist master used the initiation method to directly push his three supernatural powers to the Great Perfection realm.

This step saved him at least a century of arduous cultivation!

Even though he possessed a profound spiritual realm and cultivated the Great Salvation Zen Light with divine assistance, perfecting it was not easy.

Moreover, what about the other two major paths ranked in the top twenty?

Now, with this extraordinary encounter, I have been directly empowered by a great Buddhist master and attained perfect enlightenment. It is simply exhilarating!
The Great Liberation Technique and the Great Salvation Technique, these two techniques, ranked among the top twenty of the Three Thousand Great Daos, possess boundless power once mastered, far exceeding any imagination.

With a casual movement, a golden vertical eye appeared between Lin Yu's brows.

From this vertical eye shot out a ten-zhang-long beam of red Buddhist light.

It contains the meaning of blissful ascension, but its destructive power is terrifyingly powerful, almost enough to melt down a top-grade treasure!
