Chapter 3078
Speaking up to here, Xiao Hua bitterly smiled. Yes, Han Zhu, a Golden Core cultivator, actually rushed to the top of the Sky Peak that even Spirit Severing Stage masters couldn't climb. How could this not be noticed?
Wasn't he caught in the same dilemma as her?
"So …" Han Zhu smiled and said, "I'll take this opportunity to hide for a while and see the situation of the Taiqing Sect!
If someone appears from the Inkcloud Black Forest, then I'll jump out and admit it!
Otherwise … I'll have to think about how to deal with it! "
"If no one appears from the Inkcloud Black Forest, then Martial Uncle won't be able to explain it!" Xiao Hua said with a smile.
"Indeed!
This is also the reason why I have to hide for a while and think about it carefully! "
Han Zhu didn't avoid it and explained, "Moreover, I'll take this opportunity to go to the ruins of the Buddhist Sect and awaken your relative. This can be considered as a bit of merit for me!"
"Yes, Martial Uncle's benevolence is far from what I can compare to!" Xiao Hua said with a smile very naturally.
"Yes, the cultivation of the Buddhist Sect is different from that of the Daoist Sect. Not only do we have to be proficient in the Buddhist Dharma, but we also have to be benevolent. We have to face the sufferings of the world with a heart that says if I don't go to hell, who will go to hell? Only then can we comprehend the profoundness of the Buddhist Dharma!" Han Zhu nodded and said.
"Then … what is hell?" Xiao Hua smiled bitterly.
"It's the place where all ghosts go, the source of all evil!"
Han Zhu explained without hesitation, "After all living things die, they have to go through the trial of hell in order to have the possibility of reincarnation.
Only by going through hell can one eliminate the sins of the mortal world and reincarnate into the six paths of reincarnation! "
"Hiss ~ Isn't that the same as the netherworld?" Xiao Hua gasped. He almost said that it was the same as the netherworld that Houtu God transformed into.
"That's right!" Han Zhu nodded. "Hell and the netherworld are the same!
They're both places where souls go. "
"Then where is this hell?"
Xiao Hua suddenly recalled the pitch-black silhouette that he saw through the Netherworld Mirror and the inexplicable words.
"How would I know!"
Han Zhu said indifferently, "This hell is the opposite of the Buddhist Sect's Western Paradise. It's the most hidden place in the world.
Even when the Buddhist Sect prospered, countless Buddhist monks tirelessly searched for it, but still couldn't find it.
Now that the Buddhist Sect has long been annihilated, who can still find it? "
"Then … where did this Western Paradise and Hell come from?" Xiao Hua loved to get to the bottom of things, so he immediately asked.
"The Western Paradise is also known as the Western Paradise. It is a world of solemnity, tranquility, and equality that the supreme Buddha of the Buddhist Sect has achieved through the Forty-Eight Great Wishes.
The Buddhists and people here were all born from the lotus flowers in the Seven Treasures Pool. They were all Great Arhats who possessed the body of Vajra Narayan.
The people here are all 'good people', so they don't suffer, hence the name 'Bliss'. "
Han Zhu flew in the air and looked into the distance with great longing. "Furthermore, the people in the Western Paradise all have supreme Buddhist Dharma. No matter what aptitude they have, they can cultivate Buddhist Dharma. Buddhist Dharma is a natural combination with the Dao of Heaven and Earth. It can move mountains, drain seas, and summon the wind and rain.
If the Western Paradise is the residence of the gods and buddhas, then hell would be the depraved land of thousands of evil ghosts. It would be filthy beyond compare. The evil ghosts within would suffer the bone-scraping pain of the chilly wind every day, and suffer the bone-piercing pain of the ghost stars every night! "
"Uncle-master, since you don't know where hell is, then what about the Western Paradise?
Is there a place to go? "Xiao Hua asked with longing.
"The Western Paradise that the Buddha has established is located in the west. It is ten trillion Buddhist Lands away from the Saha World that we live in, the Five Turbid Evil Worlds."
Han Zhu said with melancholy. That tone and his somewhat ferocious face made people feel baffled.
"The Saha World?"
Xiao Hua was even more confused. This was the first time he had heard the word 'world'. Moreover, it appeared from time to time in Han Zhu's mouth. It seemed that his own Exquisite Leaf Scripture didn't have such a word.
"The Saha World refers to the mortal world!
It doesn't only belong to my Xiaoyu Continent! "Han Zhu explained." Just like the Cultivation World, there are also millions of Meng Mountains! "
"Oh!"
Although Xiao Hua was confused, he knew that if he went to the ruins of the Buddhist Sect, he would definitely be able to obtain a lot of scriptures. His doubts would all be solved. Therefore, he didn't ask anymore about the Saha World. "What is Buddhist Lands?
Disciple only knows that distances are measured in feet, feet, and li. How can there be Buddhist Lands? "
"Buddhist Lands?
Hehe, one Buddhist Lands is the Three Thousand Boundless Worlds.
In the eyes of the mortal world, this Buddhist Lands can't be crossed even if he used three lifetimes.
And this Buddhist Lands are in the hearts of the devout Buddhists. Under the guidance of the Bodhisattva, they can reach it in an instant. "
Han Zhu chuckled and explained. Then, he suddenly asked, "Xiao Hua, do you know how long an instant is?"
"How long?
A while! "Xiao Hua was stunned and casually replied.
"Hehe, a flick of the finger is sixty instants. An ordinary person can have nine hundred thoughts in an instant.
Do you know how long an instant is?
Think about it, Buddhists only need an instant to cross the Three Thousand Boundless Worlds. How great is that!
That Buddha is so merciful to all living beings. Relying on the power of Buddha, he can bring karma to the Pure Land. "Han Zhu sighed and said.
"So … so short!"
Xiao Hua was flabbergasted. However, he smiled and said, "Then it's better to cross the Three Thousand Boundless Worlds in an instant!
Isn't that faster? "
"Hmph, what do you know!"
Han Zhu sneered. "The Western Pure Land is the place where Buddhists achieve great success. It's already Buddha's grace that ordinary Buddhists can go there!
Moreover, in an instant, nine hundred thoughts will arise. These thoughts are both good and evil. If there's only one evil thought, it'll be tainted by obsession. How can one enter the Western Pure Land? "
Xiao Hua curled his lips and whispered, "Isn't this Buddha too harsh?"
Han Zhu wanted to scold him again, but Xiao Hua's heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly said, "That's right, Martial Uncle, what's that Boundless World?
Could it be that there's a Small Thousand World? "
"Every Small World has the same form. In the center, there's Mount Meru. It passes through the sea and stands on the Earth Wheel. Below the Earth Wheel is the golden wheel, below it is the water wheel, below it is the wind wheel, and beyond the wind wheel is the void.
The top and bottom of Mount Meru are big, but the center is small. The sun and moon are on the mountainside. The Four Heavenly Kings reside on the four sides of the mountainside. The Daoli Heaven is at the top of the mountain. Above the Daoli Heaven are the Yama Heaven, Tusita Heaven, Huala Heaven, and Paravirambhava Heaven. Above them are the 63 Heavens of the Color Realm and the Four Heavens of the Colorless Realm.
At the base of Mount Meru are seven layers of golden mountains and seven layers of perfume seas. Between each sea is a layer of mountains. Outside the seventh layer of golden mountains is the Alkali Sea. Beyond the Alkali Sea is the Grand Tiewei Mountain.
Around the Alkali Sea are four major continents. They are the Dongsheng Divine Continent (protected by Heavenly King Chiguo in the East), the Nansibu Continent (protected by Heavenly King Zengzhang in the South), the Aparagodaniya Continent (protected by Heavenly King Guangmu in the West), and the Uttarakuru Continent (protected by Heavenly King Duowen in the North). They are called the Four Heavens. Beside each continent are two middle continents and hundreds of small continents.
The nine mountains and eight seas, the sun and the moon, the four major continents, the Six Desires Heaven, and the Initial Zen Three Heavens above.
A thousand Small Worlds, with the Two Zen Three Heavens above them, formed a Small Thousand World.
A thousand Small Thousand Worlds, with the Three Zen Three Heavens above them, formed a Middle Thousand World.
A thousand Middle Thousand Worlds, with the Four Zen Nine Heavens above them, and the Four Empty Heavens above them, formed a Great Thousand World.
Because there are multiples of three thousand in the middle, the Great Thousand World is also called the Three Thousand Great Thousand World. "
Han Zhu explained patiently. Unfortunately, Xiao Hua was a little dizzy from listening, especially because he was very disappointed!
This was because there had never been any life in his space. He thought that his space was a Minor Chiliocosm, but according to Frost Bamboo, his space was completely different from the so-called Minor Chiliocosm. Yes, it was even different from a Minor Chiliocosm. How could he be interested?
"What?" Han Zhu asked faintly, "Your ancestral mantra doesn't mention anything about it?"
"You have also read the Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra!
There is no explanation about it! "
Xiao Hua said with a smile. Seeing that Han Zhu thought of something, he asked embarrassedly, "Also, Martial Uncle, this disciple still has a question. Please don't blame me!"
"Ask ~" Han Zhu glanced at Xiao Hua and nodded.
"This …" Xiao Hua slightly hesitated and said in a low voice, "Although the Buddhist Sect was destroyed!
But … this Mount Meru, this Grand Tie Wei Mountain … they were not destroyed … "
"Hmph ~" As expected by Xiao Hua, Han Zhu glared at Xiao Hua and then said with a cold snort, "You are asking this old man, who should this old man ask?
These are all records of the Western Paradise. You will know once you go to the Western Paradise! "
"Yes, yes ~" Xiao Hua knew that he had hit Han Zhu's weak spot and hurriedly smiled apologetically, "Presumably, this Mount Meru was also destroyed by my Dao Sect!"
"Your Dao Sect?"
Han Zhu said faintly, "I'm afraid that you have to figure out whether you are a Dao Sect or a Buddhist Sect!"
"Then what about Martial Uncle?"
Xiao Hua hurriedly said, "This disciple is really confused now. But what you are, this disciple is!"
"What this old man is, this old man naturally understands!"
Han Zhu did not look at Xiao Hua and only looked at the floating clouds in the distance. He said word by word, "But what you are, you must figure it out yourself!
You are not the same as this old man! "
"Hiss ~" Xiao Hua sucked in a breath of cold air and was slightly shocked in his heart.
"Not only are you different from this old man, the six people that you are about to meet are also different!"
Han Zhu did not notice Xiao Hua's abnormality and said again, "Everyone has their own path and the right to choose the path that they want to walk!
Perhaps you did not have to choose before exploring the ruins of the Buddhist Sect. But after arriving at the ruins of the Buddhist Sect, you … must make a choice! "
Although Han Zhu's words were obscure, Xiao Hua understood it very well. He had also said these words to others before. Thus, he bitterly smiled and said, "Martial Uncle, didn't you also come to the ruins of the Buddhist Sect before?
Could it be that you already made a choice at that time? "
