Chapter 225 Buddha's Mission

Chapter 225 Buddha's Mission

Among the weathered and desolate tribal ruins and several stone temples of varying distances, strange creatures dressed in Guanyin robes are wandering around.

The robes were originally holy, but now they have long since decayed, are covered with stains, and are soaked with blood and corpse fluids. Wrapped in them are pieces of rotten flesh that can barely be considered "human bodies."

Deep yellow eyeballs were embedded in every part of the rotten flesh, looking around.

Any living being that makes eye contact with it will be immediately locked by the "forbidden weirdness rules", and violating them will trigger an attack.

It is so scary and thrilling, but when they walk, they are accompanied by the sound of chanting and Buddhist sandalwood, which is really weird.

Unfortunately, since Li Yu knew the rules in advance, they were naturally not that scary.

Li Yu, whose eyes were gouged out, was not affected in his movements at all as he was guided by red beans.

Of course, even without red beans, it doesn’t matter whether Li Yu has a pair of eyes or not, as he has the blessing of five super senses.

He walked calmly past the statues of "Strange Guanyin", stepped on the prayer flags and paper money, and entered the stone temples. Time and history seemed to be frozen here. Although covered with dust, there were no traces of outsiders, as if everything here was sealed.

Until Li Yu arrived.

In the temple, Li Yu saw many monks who had died in various miserable ways and had all turned into mummies.

From the outside to the inside, the bodies of the wild people wearing monks' robes show a process of gradual "civilization and transformation".

At first, they were all rough and primitive, hunched over like monkeys, and seemed to still retain the wild nature of eating raw meat and drinking blood.

Later, he gradually became wise and his wildness disappeared.

Of course, none of them could escape death.

Until the last, slightly grander temple, at the deepest part, on a straw mat, sat a very special corpse.

This is an old monk, whose entire body seems to be spread out and transformed into a huge and shriveled "meat lotus". Eight arms are stretched out, each holding a different strange seal. In the middle, on a meat platform that looks like an altar, is the old monk's extremely well-preserved head.

His expression was twisted, angry, and filled with resentment.

It is still shriveled, but it is obvious that it is a human from Wanfu City, or the Three Kingdoms and Six Religions.

Although it is too long since he died, we cannot tell how powerful the old monk was when he was alive.

But just from this horrific appearance and the seemingly immortal corpse, we can make some guesses.

……

All these scenes were captured by Hongdou's mechanical eye and directly transmitted to Li Yu's mind.

Because of the "unity of man and machine" and spiritual fusion, people can achieve some special methods.

Also conveyed was Hongdou's deduction.

Combined with Li Yu's own high spiritual sense, he vaguely knew what was happening here.

"In a certain period of ancient times, Buddhism once tried to convert the three forbidden areas. Although it ended in failure, the action was indeed epic."

"A large number of monks swore an oath of 'If I don't go to hell, who will?' and entered the forbidden areas, each using their own methods to convert people. Among them were many high-sequence experts. According to historical records, in the end, not a single monk survived, and all of them died in the three forbidden areas."

"The person in front of me should be the senior monk who came to Wangui Tundra."

"From the looks of it, he seems to have succeeded halfway. He has enlightened the people, built temples, and practiced Buddhism... But it seems that what he is practicing is not the orthodox Buddhist path, but a new path created by combining some strange powers in the forbidden area?"

"These two people seem quite ambitious. Are they all thinking about carving out their own path?"

Li Yu complained while sensing and guessing.

In my ears, I can still hear the chanting of those strange Guanyins outside.

However, his attention was now completely drawn to a Buddhist scripture written in "gold lacquer" on the surface of the monk's body in front of him.

Of course he didn't have the ability to decipher it, but Hongdou could.

"Unknown text detected... Scanning and deciphering."

"Finish!"

"This text is based on the [Wild People's Script], combined with the ancient texts of the world and the secret Buddhist texts. The content is a fragmentary Buddhist scripture called the Flesh Lotus Sutra. The creator is Master Rama, who was originally a [Saint Lawgiver] of the fourth sequence of the Buddha's path, and came to the tundra to perform the work of salvation."

"Initially, Master Rama was quite successful, but soon he was invaded by the ubiquitous pollution in the forbidden area and became increasingly filthy and degenerate."

"One day, Rama had a dream and saw a Lama Buddha surrounded by emerald green light. He was given a celestial Buddhist scripture. After waking up, he suddenly realized and created the Flesh Lotus Sutra."

"Practicing this sutra can replace the original Buddha path at no cost, retain the ability, and better adapt to the environment in the forbidden area."

"Reverend Rama originally thought that this merit would be enough for him to be promoted to the [Flesh Lotus Arhat], but he did not expect that it would cause a Buddhist disaster, resulting in the death of all the wild people and monks, and the creation of some special forbidden tricks..."

In the temple.

As Hongdou's mechanical voice sounded word by word, a smile gradually appeared on Li Yu's face, which was covered with blood and tears.

At the eye mask, the progress of the bubble of truth is growing rapidly.

The secret knowledge buried in the "frozen history" is being unearthed by him bit by bit.

There is no doubt that disaster has occurred here.

But for Li Yu at this moment, it was a very convenient thing:

"Buddhism is too arrogant. If the three forbidden areas were so easy to convert, they wouldn't have remained barbaric and primitive for so many years. Not only are the Three Kingdoms and Six Religions helpless, but Wanfu City is also unable to deal with it."

"Although it protects Wanfu City, it is also a relatively restricted place."

"Then Master Rama has obviously been tricked. The Emerald Lama Living Buddha is most likely the incarnation of an evil god who came down to earth to deceive him... Hmm? This behavior sounds a lot like the method of the Lord of Change."

"But for me, it completely fills in the missing conditions."

"A perfect location, realistic extras, a flawless story background, real characters... plus my ability as a top-notch Taoist doctor, I should be able to trick the Buddha into giving me an elixir of immortality, right?"

As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Li Yu stared straight at the horrifying corpse of the old monk Rama in his mind.

That's right!

His plan was to use the role of this ancient fallen monk, although the other party could not be considered a true arhat.

But before his death, he was already a powerful figure at the fourth level of Sequence, just one step away from becoming an Arhat.

It can be said that all conditions and factors are perfect.

Especially compared to the first time to deceive Mother Earth, there are almost no loopholes.

However, he had another idea in his mind:
"If such perfection is still seen through, it will most likely be like last time."

"Qingnv received my kindness once, and she couldn't help but go to Earth Mother and Lingying Yuanjun to ask for blessings for me."

"I'm afraid that little nun Miao Chang can't help herself. She may have already complained about me many times in front of the Buddha."

"Of course, they may not be repeated. After all, Miao Chang is only favored by the master, while Qing Nu is a registered candidate of the Earth Mother Goddess. Their levels are completely different."

"Let's give it a try. It's really no big deal if I'm seen through. What if the Buddha doesn't bother with me for Miao Chang's sake and gives me a dose of the immortality medicine?"

"Soft rice is the most delicious."

……

After making the decision, Li Yu did not delay at all.

First, let Hongdou bring the "Meat Lotus Corpse" left behind by the old monk Rama after his death back to the Immortal Fortress. Although it is a corpse, it is actually the carrier of the secret book "Meat Lotus Sutra" that has never appeared in the world.

Li Yu himself walked directly towards the cushion and slowly sat down cross-legged.

During the process, his flesh and blood began to undergo horrific changes.

The supernatural powers of the top Taoist doctor were fully demonstrated at this moment. In the blink of an eye, Li Yu was gone.

Instead, there was a golden lacquered flesh lotus that was still shriveled but still had a hint of life. Every detail was exactly the same.

But the most important thing!
It is the Qi that is unique to high-sequence strongmen and comes from the true God.

It can be called divinity, the only difference is the concentration.

Without the magical object "Immortal Qin Jade Seal", Li Yu could have perfectly portrayed all the details, but he could only capture the form but not the spirit.

After all, there are restrictions on sequence status involved here.

But it was different with the divine object. When he extracted a filthy and corrupted Arhat origin and injected it into his body.

In an instant, it was as if time had reversed here, and time returned to the moment when Master Rama was transformed into the "Flesh Lotus Demon" and before his death.

The old monk, covered in gold paint, began to chant Buddhist scriptures, calling upon the Buddha and making a prayer:
"Buddha has mercy on me. Rama is guilty. He was driven by the great vows of the Buddha and became obsessed. As a result, he was contaminated by the evil spirit and mistakenly created the magic book "The Flesh Lotus Sutra", causing great suffering to the people here. The person who tied the bell must untie it. I am willing to give up everything to eliminate this disaster. Unfortunately, my life is about to end. I beg the Buddha to give me a portion of Buddhist medicine..."

"Buddha has mercy on me, Rama is guilty..."

"Buddha has mercy on me, Rama is guilty..."

As usual, Li Yu prayed to the Buddha over and over again.

He thought it would take a long time to get a response.

After all, this is a forbidden area, the territory of countless evil gods, and the signal may not be very good.

As for the fact that he was responded to immediately by Mother Earth and Lingying Yuanjun the first time, it was probably because he had been marked in advance.

Who would have thought that this time, he still received the response from the Buddha on the third time.

Above the head of the terrifying Flesh Lotus Arhat, the void split open and Buddha’s light shone everywhere.

An extremely peaceful breath of Qi was scattered, sweet rain was dripping, there were bursts of strange fragrance, and tiny golden lotuses were blooming.

In an instant!
In this temple filled with a strange atmosphere, it seems that a small pure land has descended.

Outside the temple, the strange Guanyins seemed to smell an extremely terrible smell, and they roared and screamed and retreated at the same time.

"coming!"

"It's really effective. As expected, this kind of 'Arhat Seed' that was about to be promoted but unexpectedly fell is still highly valued."

“This time, there is great hope.”

Li Yu cheered in his heart, and at the same time he cooperated silently and made the changes.

The eight arms simultaneously changed the strange and terrifying seals into authentic Buddhist seals.

The ferocious and evil face of the old monk gradually returned to normal.

The evil god's demonic book "The Flesh Lotus Sutra" written all over the body with gold lacquer is becoming dim word by word.

"My Buddha is compassionate!"

"Have mercy on all living beings!"

Li Yu seemed to be completely immersed in the role, and his portrayal of Master Rama was extremely realistic.

At this moment, the old monk seemed to be transforming from a devil into a Buddha, with tears in his eyes.

But at the same time, the "old" death energy of the monk who was about to die was also spreading out very clearly, as if the next moment, the old monk would pass away on the spot under the shining light of Buddha.

Such power, such realism.

Even if the real "God of Change" was present, he would be amazed and admire Li Yusheng.

And the next moment, he got what he wanted.

From the crack where the Buddha's light was shining, something slowly fell down.

It was a Bodhi leaf that seemed to be made of gold and jade, slightly curled, and wrapped around a pill that exuded an unimaginable fragrance.

It seems that any life, as long as it smells the fragrance of medicine, will be cured of any disease it has and will also gain a long life.

Although Li Yu was quite confident about his performance.

But when this scene really appeared, he was still shocked.

"One of the treasures of Buddhism, the Agada medicine."

"It can cure all diseases, increase lifespan, and has infinite benefits. It is also known as the panacea. It is also one of the medicines that practitioners of the Kind Father Path want to destroy the most."

"This is for me?"

It was also thanks to the fact that Li Yu's inner thoughts were shielded by the Soul of Truth and could not be seen, otherwise they would have been exposed.

However, this reliance is also the source of his real confidence.

Although he was shocked, it did not stop Li Yu from controlling the eight shriveled arms and slowly taking the Immortal Buddha Medicine.

Get the Buddhist medicine!

The crack disappeared, and the Buddha's light, the sweet rain, and the golden lotus disappeared in an instant, as if everything just now was just an illusion.

Until a spiritual response from "Buddha" slowly emerged in Li Yu's mind.

When Li Yu sensed the specific content inside, the joy in his eyes suddenly disappeared.

"Rama!"

"You are trapped by obsession, giving rise to greed, anger, ignorance and hatred, misinterpreting the Buddhist scriptures and misrepresenting the magic scriptures, causing the suffering of many lives..."

"But since you have the heart to resolve the disaster, I will help you. I will give you the Buddha medicine so that you can have a connection with the Buddha."

"In the future, you will encounter 'a group of Buddhist ghosts' in those three forbidden areas. Every time you convert a group of them, you will gain something."

This spiritual response to the Buddha's words seems to be fine.

But after listening to it, Li Yu found all the loopholes.

"really!"

"Although the Buddha is also known for his kindness, it is not so easy to take advantage of a true god."

"I was seen through again, but for some reason, the Buddha still gave me an immortality elixir."

"At the same time, I was assigned a long-term task."

"He seems to know my identity as the chosen one of the pioneer team. He predicted that I would encounter a group of Buddhas and ghosts in the three forbidden areas. He wants me to do my best to convert these weird things. After I do this, he will give me a reward."

"You are worthy of being the Buddha. You clearly saw through me, but you still tried to play tricks on me without saying it out loud."

"But where did the flaw come from this time? It shouldn't be because of Miao Chang."

"I clearly deceived the Devil-Subduing Heavenly Venerable, the Kind Father, the Hanged King, and the Judgment Star Lord, and I succeeded in doing so."

"Why is it that even though the conditions are better, they are seen through by Mother Earth and Buddha?"

When this thought flashed through his mind, Li Yu looked at the extremely precious Immortal Buddha Medicine in his hand, and a look of helplessness appeared on his face.

At the same time, I began to think seriously in my mind.

A mature "swindler" must learn to summarize and reflect in order to increase the chances of success.
