Chapter 158 What a monkey!
Outside the Twenty-Four Heavenly Valley, Han Yun was about to leave when suddenly the golden monkey cried out a few times and rushed to Han Yun's side.

To Han Yun's astonishment, the monkey actually knelt respectfully on the ground, its hands hanging down in front of its chest, and bowed devoutly before looking at Han Yun.

His eyes, which were originally slightly wild and innocent, suddenly became complicated at that moment, filled with excitement, longing, agitation, dependence, respect, and humility.

Han Yun stood still and turned to look at it.

"You...you want to come with me?"

"Squeak!"

The golden monkey nodded eagerly.

Han Yun pointed to the group of golden monkeys behind it and said, "But what about them? Are you going to abandon them?"

The golden monkeys were either clinging to towering trees or crouching in rock crevices, all gazing at it; among them might be its parents.

It was like a monkey going out to sea to learn the Tao, and the troop of monkeys seeing it off.

"Squeak!"

The golden monkey turned back and took a few steps, waving goodbye as if to say goodbye, before coming back to Han Yun and looking at him with determined eyes.

Han Yun smiled slightly: "Very well, you and I are destined to meet. Would you be willing to cultivate with me?"

"squeak!"

Han Yun walked ahead, and the golden monkey followed closely behind.

"The path of spiritual practice requires unwavering focus and diligence."

"squeak!"

"If you are willing, I can teach you the art of immortality in the future, so that you can transcend the Three Realms and be outside the Five Elements."

"squeak!"

Han Yun suddenly made a hand seal, and a golden light containing an inner vision anchor point emerged from his fingertip and fell into the body of the golden monkey.

"You monkey, your mind is like a wild ape, impossible to control. No matter what trouble you cause or what evil you commit in the future, you are not allowed to say that you are my disciple. If you utter even half a word, I will know it, and I will skin you alive, grind your bones to dust, and banish your soul to the deepest hell, so that you will never be able to rise again!"

At this moment, Han Yun suddenly stopped.

The monkey stopped and fell silent. It looked at Han Yun and nodded emphatically.

"squeak!"

Han Yun smiled knowingly.

Then, with a wave of his hand, the man and the monkey arrived in the inner space.

At this moment, the immortal mountain with its peach orchard and Bodhi tree silently displayed a few words: Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, Xieyue Sanxing Cave.

Han Yun led the monkey to the earth vein spring under the Bodhi tree. Then, a wisp of Samadhi True Fire appeared in his hand, continuously refining the earth vein emulsion, which was as thick as cream, into colorful stone eggs with a myriad of colors.

It is 36 feet 5 inches high, corresponding to the 365 degrees of the celestial sphere; it is 24 feet in circumference, corresponding to the 24 solar terms of the calendar; it has nine orifices and eight holes, corresponding to the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams.

Immediately, a burst of force lifted the golden monkey, causing it to fall into the stone egg.

Then, the stone pebble fell from mid-air and stood in the center of the spring. Three golden lotuses swayed beside it, and ten clumps of purple bamboo emitted a purple mist, enveloping it.

"You may emerge from this stone one year from now!"

The golden monkey inside the stone egg nodded slightly, slowly closed its eyes, as if falling into a deep sleep.

After doing all this, Han Yun sat cross-legged beside the spring and activated the Hehua Zizai Tianmo Mantra that he had obtained from the Twenty-Four Heavenly Valley.

Its opening is a Sanskrit mantra: Om, Maraja, Vidana, Thavasuha! It means "all illusions are real, your mind is prison".

All forms are not forms; Mara is a formidable force. By inverting dreams, one attains enlightenment.

At the pinnacle of the Three Realms, the master of the sea of ​​desire. Above the Six Heavens, the supreme being of illusory freedom. In purple-gold form, he manifests greed, anger, and ignorance as wisdom. His crimson eyes reflect his image, transforming form, perception, and thought into supernatural powers. He controls the inner demons and karmic debts of all beings, playing with the inverted cause and effect of the mortal world.

The celestial robes of the celestial being are adorned with jewels; all phenomena arise from deluded thoughts. Golden lotuses are planted amidst the fires of the seven emotions; the Dharma boat ferries one across the abyss of the six desires. The non-dualistic Dharma is originally myself; even the reversal of heaven and earth is Zen.

Form the Great Freedom Mudra with your hands and visualize the appearance of the Heavenly Demon!

Those who recite this mantra should know that it is not a mantra at all, but rather a projection of the Paranirmitavasavartin Heaven. Practitioners should know that if they become attached to any form, then heavenly demons will possess them, all dharmas will be empty, and the Great Luo Pure Land will be attained.

The last page depicts a three-headed, six-armed demon, holding a mirror of delusions in his left hand and a lotus of karmic fire in his right, with his feet treading on a wheel of cause and effect.

This is a cultivation method that transforms the human heart into a demonic prison, the inner world into the six desire realms, and thoughts into heavenly demons, thus tempering oneself. It must be said that its creator was extremely bold, practically a madman.

The self-transformed demon is actually the self-transformed demon.

With a single thought, demons arise; with another thought, all demons are born. If one cultivates to the Mahayana level, one can naturally become the Lord of the Six Desires Heaven, ruling over all demons.

Unfortunately, Wugensheng only used it as a means to "convert" others, and he could not understand the meaning of cultivation and training in it at all.

It can be said that this is actually a lineage no less advanced than the ancestral master's techniques.

After reading it, Han Yun activated his third eye to analyze its principles and concepts, and incorporated a similar structure to the Everlasting Spring Skill. After many deductions, he finally obtained a demonic skill.

Its name is: The Sutra of the Six Desires and the Demonic Mind

This method uses the seven emotions and six desires as fuel and the mind's delusions as a furnace. The practitioner must first sever their own attachments, transform external demons into internal spirit, and see their true nature amidst the ups and downs of the sea of ​​desires.

Then, the inner god evolves into myriad demonic clones, and a multitude of demons are born. The cultivator himself controls all the demons, becoming the ancestor of the demonic path. Drawing on the laws of heaven and earth, he can even transform into an unparalleled celestial magical body.

"Taking falsehood as truth and using demons to refine the mind... is actually the same as the visualization of gods in the Yellow Court Inner Scripture."

Han Yun closed his eyes and looked inward. In the blink of an eye, a three-headed, six-armed celestial demon suddenly appeared in his Niwan Palace. Its left eye reflected the vast red dust, and its right pupil illuminated the raging karmic fire.

Just then, the golden monkey inside the stone egg suddenly trembled, bursting forth with a wild and untamed restlessness. Under Han Yun's supernatural powers, its inner thoughts and ideas were transformed into illusions and reflected in the inner space.

He saw it transform into a giant ape that stood tall and imposing, wielding an iron rod and smashing the Lingxiao Palace; he also saw the monkey troop howling in the raging fire, while he was pressed down at the foot of the mountain, anxious and burning with worry.

Finally, he saw the golden monkey wearing a golden chainmail armor, grinning maliciously at him: "Master, tell me, if all beings are equal, why can't I, Old Sun, eat the peaches in the Peach Garden?"

"break!"

With a soft shout from Han Yun, the illusion shattered like a mirror. The monkey in the stone egg seemed to be struck by lightning, its golden fur bristling. However, it also shed a layer of chaos and ignorance, and its pupils shone with a clear light.

Three golden lotuses beside the spring moved undisturbed by the wind, sprinkling drops of sweet dew.

Han Yun took a drop of water and flicked it at the stone egg, cleansing it of worldly thoughts and saying, "The spiritual root is born from the innate, and the mind monkey has just attained the Great Luo Immortal. If one attains true nature in the future, one will know that the difference between demon and Buddha is but a thought."

At the same time, Han Yun's mind was also filled with thoughts, and he couldn't help but think of the Patriarch Han Zhongli he had once met.

Han Yun silently looked at the golden monkey in the stone egg. Ordinary monkeys wouldn't be so stubborn; it must have some kind of background.

"Could you be it?"

"And who am I?"

With all these causes and effects intertwined, Han Yun felt that he could see things much more clearly now.

Just like the long river of time, one person looks back from the beginning, while another looks back from the end!
