Chapter 350: Lingbao's Transformation, Xuanzang's Journey to the West
Return to the ruins.
Han Yi held the Minghai Sword in his hand and created the world. He had already achieved the Hunyuan Dao Fruit, and every move he made was filled with boundless power. In less than a moment, a vast world took shape in Guixu. The sun, moon, and stars each went their own way, and the innate spiritual energy continuously nourished all things in this world.
A vast and mysterious ancient mirror suddenly flew out from his celebratory cloud. The power of time and space spread, making this newly opened world extremely stable.
If other worlds are left unattended for a long time, they will only become weaker and weaker as time goes by, and it is not surprising that the world's status will even decline.
However, the new world opened up by Han Yi was slowly becoming stronger. The origin of the world was constantly growing, and the void of heaven and earth was constantly expanding around it.
"Guixu, what a great place!"
As the Guixu symbolizing the end of all things, there is constant influx of innate spiritual energy. This spiritual energy comes from the primeval world and, along with the water from the Eight Circles and Nine Fields, converges into this ever-expanding bottomless cave. Han Yi created the world in Guixu by utilizing the innate spiritual energy from the primeval world.
"The weaker the Honghuang is, the stronger Guixu will be!" He looked at the three sacred mountains evolved from the three corpses of Hongjun, and thought to himself: "Maybe I can imitate Luohou and reverse the Honghuang!"
He is now a genuine saint with the power to change the world. If the prehistoric world is destroyed, he can use Guixu to seize the prehistoric world's heritage, thereby making a leap in his cultivation.
Han Yi stood with his hands behind his back and said with emotion: "No wonder the Demon Ancestor Luohou wanted to reverse the primitive world? This method is much faster than trying to comprehend the great Dao by yourself!"
He used the Great Dao of Guixu to prove the Dao of Hunyuan, and was able to devour everything. When it came to refining the primitive world, even the Demon Ancestor Rāhu did not have an advantage over him.
But he didn't dare to act rashly.
Because, if he dared to do so, the one in Zixiao Palace would definitely kill him at all costs, even if it meant starting a war between the Heaven and Earth.
"Success is due to Heaven, and failure is also due to Heaven!" After Han Yi obtained the status of a saint, he had a clear understanding of the great Dao of the entire prehistoric world: "Hongjun has integrated himself with Heaven and perfected Heaven, thus making his own Dao fruit tend to be perfect. This is undoubtedly a shortcut, but if Heaven is not perfect, he cannot transcend it! Since he pursues transcendence, he naturally does not want to be controlled by Heaven all the time!"
Hedao!
By merging with the Way of Heaven, perfecting the Way of Heaven, and integrating one's own great Dao with the Way of Heaven, the Way of Heaven, as it constantly improves, will also feed back the Dao fruits to those who have merged with it.
This is a shortcut, a way to quickly complete one's own Tao fruit, increase one's Tao foundation, and enhance one's understanding of the Tao, thereby laying the foundation for transcendence.
But, it is not without any cost!
If the Way of Heaven cannot be perfected, those who are in harmony with the Way will never be able to escape from it.
Of course, since heaven, earth and man are the three elements, the same is true for the way of earth and the way of man.
only……
Although there are three saints of the underground way now, no one has tried to merge with the way. And now, let alone merge with the way of humanity, there is not even a saint of humanity!
Hou Tu probably also knew the drawbacks of He Dao. The underground tunnel was incomplete. If He Dao were to achieve perfection, it would be much more difficult to make the underground tunnel perfect than to perfect the Heavenly Dao.
As for Ping Xin, although he is now the most favored by the Tao because of his impartiality and has almost become the spokesperson of the Tao, he has no intention of being in accordance with the Tao.
Han Yi now has the qualifications, but he is also not prepared to go underground.
The reason!
Of course it’s because it’s too difficult to achieve perfection in the underground world!
This time, although the origin of the earth has increased a lot, it can only support five saints, and there is still a long way to go before reaching the ultimate number of nine.
Han Yi naturally would not allow himself to be bound.
He first attained Hunyuan and then obtained the status of an authentic saint. As long as he wanted, or if the tunnel collapsed, he could break free from the control of the tunnel at any time.
However, he needed the earth to help him fight against Hongjun, so he took the initiative to become an earth saint.
Of course, this is also to gain the full understanding of the Great Way of Reincarnation from the tunnel, so as to merge it with the Great Way of Time and Space and the Great Way of the End into the Great Way of Guixu.
This is a brilliant move!
But Han Yi has not figured out what to do next.
If he wants to improve his cultivation, the fastest way is to go through Guixu and refine the primitive world, but if he does this, he will definitely make enemies all over the world.
Hongjun will not let him go.
Saints like Tongtian Jiaozhu, Jie Yin Taoist, and Hou Tu, who had a good relationship with him, would also become his enemies and regard him as a world-destroying demon.
"Take a step and take a look!"
Han Yi pondered in his heart, "First of all, delaying the speed of Heaven's Perfection is the top priority! Otherwise, if Hongjun succeeds in transcending, the Earth Tunnel will no longer be a concern for him! Since I have already had a cause and effect with him, in order to achieve the transcendent state of Hunyuan Wuji Daluo Jinxian, he will definitely find a way to eliminate this cause and effect of mine!"
Transcending the Way of Heaven only makes Hongjun qualified to transcend the Great Way. If he wants to transcend the Great Way, he must reduce and seek emptiness, and eliminate all causes and effects within himself.
Therefore, Han Yi has become an obstacle to his path, but because he is in harmony with the Way of Heaven, he is currently unable to personally kill Han Yi!
The underground tunnel is Han Yi's amulet, but how long it can protect him depends on how long Hongjun can make the Heavenly Dao perfect and thus allow himself to transcend the Heavenly Dao.
"However, we can't force Hongjun to the edge!" Han Yi looked through Guixu and towards the direction of Zixiao Palace: "He is much stronger than me!"
Therefore, he had to delay the speed of the perfection of the Heavenly Dao, but not disrupt the process. At the same time, he had to find ways to increase his own strength as much as possible.
Thinking of this, Han Yi flicked his finger, and a source of heavenly origin shot out from his hand and merged into the Kunlun mirror, transforming this half-step innate treasure. This was the source of heavenly origin of the Xuanhuang Realm. In addition to the sacrifice to the prehistoric earth, he actually used the Qiankun feng shui map to secretly intercept about 10%.
"boom!"
After obtaining this source of the Heavenly Dao, the Kunlun Mirror immediately began to transform. Its innate immortal spiritual light grew wildly, and in an instant, the forty-ninth restriction was derived.
At this moment, the Kunlun Mirror was finally sublimated to its fullest, becoming an innate treasure that contained the great way of time and space, and its powerful might filled the entire Guixu world.
The vast power of time and space emerged, and the Avenue of Time and Space spread to all parts of Guixu. The dimensional void continued to evolve, and endless worlds of dust were born and destroyed in it.
He now possesses two innate treasures, but because he was worried that his plan would fail, he handed the Chaos Bell to Yuan Ming for safekeeping in advance.
Now, with the three incarnations of Taoist Hongjun watching above Guixu, he dared not enter the Demon Realm to bring back Yuanming, Shen Gongbao and others, nor did he dare to take back the Chaos Bell. However, the future Buddhist and Demonic Catastrophe would inevitably affect the situation of the prehistoric world, and he could naturally take back the Chaos Bell at that time.
He is a cautious person and never puts all his eggs in one basket. The only thing that worries him is that since Hongjun has been influenced by the Demon Ancestor Rāhu, does he have some plans in the Demon World?
Han Yi is not sure.
But he will prepare for the worst!
Thinking of this, he immediately merged his soul with Guixu, comprehended the Dao of Guixu, consolidated the Dao Fruit of Hunyuan, and by the way, separated a part of his divine consciousness to focus on the Journey to the West.
……
Sun Wukong caused a lot of havoc in the Heavenly Palace, causing unrest in the whole Heavenly Palace. With the help of the gods in Heaven, he was unstoppable. He did not advance even further until he reached the gate of the Lingxiao Palace, where he was stopped by Wang Lingguan who was guarding the Lingxiao Palace. He was then suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain by Maitreya Buddha who came to the rescue. Five hundred years have passed now.
Jin Chanzi has been reincarnated and is now in his tenth life. He was born in the Tang Dynasty in the East. He suffered a disaster since childhood and was rescued by the abbot of Jinshan Temple, Fa Ming, who gave him the Dharma name Xuanzang and taught him scriptures since he was a child.
One day, Elder Fa Ming called Xuanzang to his presence, took out a letter written in blood, handed it to Xuanzang, and briefly explained the other party's life experience to Xuanzang.
"You have not yet severed your earthly ties, so you need to go down the mountain!" Elder Fa Ming said sternly, "Your mother is still alive, you can go to Wenzhou to see her!"
"Disciple obey!"
Upon hearing this, Xuanzang nodded immediately.
He simply packed his luggage and left Jinshan Temple. However, after going down the mountain, his expression changed when he looked at Jinshan Temple: "Is it Elder Fa Ming or Avalokitesvara?"
On Xuanzang's spirit platform, two figures sat opposite each other, one was the true spirit of Jin Chanzi, and the other was the demon seed left by Han Yi.
Han Yi chuckled and said, "Cihang betrayed Xuan and joined Buddhism, becoming Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva. She has reincarnated several times and once attained Buddhahood, named Dharma Ming Tathagata. However, she wanted to become a Buddha, so she killed this Buddhahood! Elder Fa Ming is the evil corpse of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva!"
It has to be said that Taoist Cihang is very compatible with Buddhism. He killed the good corpse as soon as he joined Buddhism. After experiencing reincarnation and tribulations, he killed the evil corpse, Zhengfa Ming Tathagata.
Now, he has become a powerful person who has killed two corpses!
Of course, this is also due to his accumulated experience. Because of the killing calamity, he was stuck in the Golden Immortal realm for more than a dozen epochs, and his foundation is far stronger than that of ordinary cultivators.
Jin Chanzi put his hands together and bowed, saying, "Teacher, should I follow the arrangement of Guanyin Bodhisattva and go to see my biological mother in this life, or should I first restore my cultivation and get rid of my current mortal body?"
"Not urgent!"
Han Yi smiled and said, "You should follow the path arranged by Guanyin first. When you set out on the journey to the west, your master will naturally help you recover your cultivation!"
Xuanzang grew up under the nose of Guanyin Bodhisattva. If he suddenly awakened his true spirit and resumed his cultivation, it would be a bit abrupt and would inevitably arouse some suspicion.
Therefore, Han Yi does not plan to help Jin Chanzi recover his cultivation now!
Jin Chanzi nodded immediately.
So, Xuanzang went to Jiangzhou under the pretext of begging for alms to reunite with his mother Wen Jiao.
Wen Jiao wrote a letter asking Xuanzang to go to Chang'an and informed Yin Kaishan of her miserable experience. After Yin Kaishan reported to Emperor Tang Li Shimin, he led his army to Jiangzhou and captured and killed Liu Hong, Li Biao and others. Chen Guangrui was resurrected with the help of the Dragon King and reunited with his family. However, Wen Jiao committed suicide because she could not forgive herself for her infidelity. Xuanzang returned to Jinshan Temple to practice.
Three years later, because Wei Zheng dreamed of beheading the Dragon King of Jing River, Li Shimin's soul wandered into the underworld. With the guidance of Judge Cui, Li Shimin came back to life and asked Xuanzang to preside over the "Water and Land Assembly" to liberate the wronged souls in the city of wrongful death.
When Xuanzang was giving a lecture, Guanyin Bodhisattva transformed himself into a scabby monk and was selling brocade robes and nine-ring staffs in Chang'an city. Prime Minister Xiao Yu met him and led Guanyin to see Li Shimin. Guanyin saw that Li Shimin was sincere in worshiping Buddha and that Xuanzang was virtuous and virtuous, so she gave the robes and staff to Tang Monk.
Seven days later, Guanyin interrupted Xuanzang's lecture at the Water and Land Assembly. The guards mistakenly thought that Guanyin was there to cause trouble and brought her before Li Shimin. Guanyin told Li Shimin that Xuanzang was preaching "Hinayana Buddhism", which could only blend in with worldly light. If he wanted to truly save the dead and ascend to heaven, he needed to go to the West to obtain "Mahayana Buddhism".
Upon hearing this, Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, and Xuanzang became sworn brothers. Li Shimin used the sutra as his title, calling Xuanzang "Tang Sanzang", and sent him to the West to worship Buddha and seek sutras.
Xuanzang also officially embarked on the journey to the West.
As soon as he left Chang'an, Han Yi used his magical powers to help him awaken all of Jin Chanzi's memories and helped him restore his cultivation to the Golden Immortal realm.
Of course, Jin Chanzi's cultivation is more than just this. In his prime, he was a genuine Daluo Golden Immortal. It was only because Han Yi was afraid of attracting too much attention that he did not fully restore his cultivation.
