In the Virtuous Hall.
Green candles and sandalwood lingered.
Beneath the gold-leaf Buddha statue, Zen Master Lingyou sat cross-legged on a straw mat.
It had been three years since they last met, and the old monk seemed to have experienced many vicissitudes of life.
His white eyebrows drooped, his orange skin wrinkled, and his back was hunched, as if he was about to curl up into a ball.
He was no longer as vigorous as before.
His body and aura began to show signs of decay.
His talent was mediocre, he had cultivated for sixty-four years and barely broke through to the Initial Vehicle Realm, which was already his limit.
Then, in order to help Fahai condense the Heavenly Dragon Illusory Realm, he spent half of his magic power.
Now, he was truly in his twilight years.
"Disciple Fahai greets Master!"
Hearing the sound.
Zen Master Lingyou lifted his eyelids slightly and saw a dazzling golden Buddhist light illuminating the entire hall.
In the golden light, the young man lowered his head and frowned.
It looked exactly the same as when he entered the sect three years ago.
However, the current him was already covered in Buddhist light, with heavenly dragons binding him, and his mana was as vast as an abyss.
He had truly surpassed his master!
"Mahayana Heavenly Dragon Realm!"
Zen Master Lingyou raised his head.
His eyes were filled with gratification and joy.
It seemed that Fahai had been focusing on his cultivation for the past three years and had not let down his expectations.
His cultivation had already surpassed his.
The Mahayana Heavenly Dragon Realm was a realm that he could only dream of in his entire life.
It was far more difficult than the Daoist Nascent Soul realm. Once it was achieved, one would have a body like a dragon, profound magical power, and a thousand years of longevity. It was enough to suppress most demons and monsters in the human world.
There were tens of thousands of Buddhist disciples in the world, but those who could reach this realm were as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns.
Fahai was only in his early twenties.
As long as he didn't take the wrong path, in time, he would get the right result.
"Good! Alright! Fahai, you didn't let me down. Your talent and wisdom are unprecedented. After three years of seclusion, you can enter the Mahayana Heavenly Dragon Realm. Your future is limitless. With you at the Golden Mountain Monastery, I can rest assured!”
Zen Master Lingyou smiled.
Fahai stepped forward and bowed. There was not a hint of complacency on his face.
Instead, he said gratefully,"If it wasn't for Master's guidance and nurturing, even if I had the wisdom of the heavens, I wouldn't have today's achievements." A teacher's kindness is like a mountain, and I will never forget it.”
"Since you have become my disciple and taught me, it is my duty. You don't have to be burdened by kindness because of this and hinder your freedom. In the future, when you inherit the golden mountain, you will also open the mountain and accept disciples to inherit our Buddhist legacy. At that time, if you can put yourself in my shoes, I will have no regrets.”
Zen Master Lingyou waved his hand, not wanting to take credit for it.
The Buddhist sects in the world were led by the four temples, and he should have the lowest cultivation among the four abbots.
However, in terms of Buddhist heart and Zen heart, there were very few people in the world who could compare to them.
After meditating for half his life, the old monk's wisdom was as deep as the vast sea.
He raised his head and looked at Fahai.""Your current cultivation has already surpassed mine. I have nothing more to teach you. However, the path you have to walk is still very far. Clearing your mind and proving your Dao is the beginning of your cultivation.”
Fahai nodded.
This was also the reason why he came out of seclusion.
Currently, his divine powers and Dharmic powers had almost reached a bottleneck of perfection.
The cultivation of Buddhism was different from Daoism.
One could not become an immortal just by sitting in seclusion and comprehending.
After the Buddhist Sect cultivated to the Mahayana Realm, they had to go through four tribulations and clear their hearts to comprehend the Dao before they could take another step forward and achieve the Fruit Realm.
This step required entering the world.
He had experienced all kinds of things in the world of mortals and experienced all kinds of life.
Subduing demons and devils, saving the world and saving the people were all methods.
Only by understanding the sufferings of all living beings could one prove their sincerity.
"Disciple came out of seclusion this time to bid farewell to Master.”
"Junior Brother, you just came out of seclusion and you're already going down the mountain?”
Hearing this, Fayan was a little reluctant.
Zen Master Lingyou, on the other hand, did not seem surprised by this. He nodded and said,""You have to enter the world to be born. You indeed have to go through this trial yourself. Since his heart was moved, he would set off today.”
As he spoke, he waved his sleeves.
Dharmic powers surged and lotuses bloomed.
He lifted the three treasures and flew in front of Fahai.
These three treasures were the monk staff, the kasaya, and the golden bowl.
"Fahai, now that your magic power has reached completion, I'll give you three magic tools to help you walk the world.”
"The Vajra Buddhist Staff is a Buddhist saint artifact. Its power is unparalleled and has the ability to break laws and ward off evil. It can kill demons in the world!”
" The Cloud Dragon Kasaya is weaved from dragon whiskers. It is impervious to water and fire, and it is spotless. It can change at will. It can cover the sky, but it can cover the body. Every thread of gold on the Kasaya is a merit that can protect your True Spirit from being worn down by thousands of tribulations!”
"The Daluo Golden Bowl is huge. It can contain the world and suppress demons!”
The three magic tools were all supreme treasures.
Each of them had great power, enough to drive all cultivators in the world crazy.
This was also the entire foundation of the Golden Mountain Monastery, other than the treasure of the temple, the Thunder Peak Pagoda!
Zen Master Lingyou took them out in one go and bestowed them all to Fahai.
It shows how much grace he has.
However, Fahai did not refuse.
These three treasures were originally his natal dharma treasures. With such an opportunity, there was no need to reject them politely.
Moreover, there were countless demons and devils in the world.
He also needed these magic treasures to support himself.
"Thank you, Master!"
Fahai bowed, golden light pulsing from his body. In the blink of an eye, he was dressed in a kasaya.
He held the staff in his hand and raised the golden bowl.
The snow-white Cloud Dragon Kasaya covered his entire body. Threads of golden threads interweaved with the blessing of merit, making him look even more solemn, as if he was a saint in the mortal world.
Fayan, who was beside him, quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at him.
It was as if looking at it would be blasphemous.
Zen Master Lingyou nodded in satisfaction and said,""Fahai, from today onwards, you are the abbot of the Golden Mountain Monastery and the World Wayfarer.”
"Go down the mountain. I hope you can pass the tribulation of the mortal world and transcend the righteous path as soon as possible. When you return, you will be a true Buddha…"
Zen Master Lingyou's voice became very weak as he spoke.
It was as if he would pass away in the next moment.
"Master…"
Fayan's eyes were red and he quickly went forward to support him.
Fahai also took a step forward.
Zen Master Lingyou smiled and shook his head. When Fahai is not around, Fayan, you have to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the temple and wait for his return. Fahai, it's a pity that your master won't be able to see the day you'll have your fruit…"
After saying that, he passed away!
Fahai stood there in a daze. After a moment of silence, he bowed.
"Farewell, Master, to the Nirvana of Rebirth!"
I respectfully send the old Zen master to paradise. Fahai was going down the mountain. The big brothers were too awesome. In one night, they got more than 10,000 flowers. Thank you very much! Wait for me to have a meal, then I'll work hard to write!
