Bodhidharma had been spreading his Mahayana Buddhism throughout the Nine States all his life. Perhaps in his heart, spreading Buddhism throughout the Nine States was also another way to prove that the West Continent had once been transformed into a human world.
At the age of 80, the first batch of Buddhist disciples who followed Dharma Fang had already grown up. They traveled the human world and spread Buddhism. Countless people who lost their families due to the war entrusted the rest of their lives to Buddhism.
However, with so many disciples, there were all kinds of people.
Hui Ke slowly discovered that some Buddhist disciples used the name of Buddhism to bully the villagers. He set up the Commandment Yard in Shaolin and personally formulated the Nine Buddhist precepts.
The original nine precepts were only used to restrict the behavior of the disciples. As soon as the nine precepts of Buddhism were revealed, all those who pursued Buddhism had their own eyes to identify the disciples of Buddhism. For that era, Huike's actions had contributed immeasurably to Buddhism.
The 80-year-old Bodhidharma saw his disciples acting on his behalf and walking into a cave in the back mountain of Shaolin Temple. He had spread Buddhism in the Nine States. He should fulfill his promise and go back to save his country and his master.
That year, he walked into the Bodhidharma Cave.
He had been sitting in the cave for twenty-seven years, and he hadn't moved his body for twenty-seven years! No one knew what he had comprehended, but a strange phenomenon of withering and flourishing appeared on his body.
This was the reflection of his life.
Buddhism withered in Xizhou and flourished in Jiuzhou.
He had spent half of his life comprehending that life and death could only be achieved in a single thought. Even if he was in a desperate situation, there was still some chance of survival.
This was the truth of life and death!
Twenty-seven years later, Bodhidharma's shadow was carved on the rock wall. Strangely, his shadow on the rock wall of the Bodhidharma Cave also had a faint withering intent domain hidden within it.
How could the shadow of an ordinary person leave a mark on the rock wall? In the shadow of the Bodhidharma Cave, all the martial arts and Buddhist essence of Bodhidharma at the age of 107 were preserved.
One hundred and seven years old. Just as he had said eighty years ago, Dharma was born a hundred years later!
In this year, he became a martial arts legend through withering and flourishing.
This year, he finally had the power to move mountains and shake the earth.
However, the land he was supposed to protect had fallen into the sea, and the people he was supposed to protect had died in the sea. Occasionally, there might be survivors, but they also fled to the sea.
The power that came a hundred years late didn't make Bodhidharma happy at all! He had used the truth of life and death to become a martial arts legend, not for anything else, but to let the frozen country of Fragrance prosper again in the midst of endless decline!
This year, he left the Bodhidharma Cave.
He would be writing Buddhist scriptures in the Shaolin Sutra Library for three years. After three years, he would bid farewell to his disciples. He held a peach cane and walked past the border. He walked to the westernmost land and stepped on the ocean.
His disciples all knew that Bodhidharma might not come back. At that time, the old abbot of Dinglin Temple, Shen Guang, was fighting with Shaolin for the orthodoxy of Buddhism. He lied that Bodhidharma had passed away in Dinglin Temple.
From then on, Dinglin Temple was renamed Kongxiang Temple.
The Buddhist and Zen Sects had started a century-long debate on orthodoxy.
Bodhidharma was on his way home at the age of 110, but the sea was vast, and even a martial arts legend could barely make out the direction.
"Probably not…"
In Qixia Town, Guo Furong sighed. She was not the only one. Almost everyone in front of Tongfu Inn guessed that Dharma had not found his hometown. If Bodhidharma had found Xiangzhi, he would not have returned to Bodhidharma Cave in the future.
And that was the truth.
Paragon Borudoro had frozen the Kingdom of Fragrance, but he had overlooked the vastness of the ocean. He had overlooked the fact that after the Kingdom of Fragrance was frozen, it would turn into a huge piece of floating ice that floated around in the ocean.
Bodhidharma had walked in the direction of his memory for forty years, but the country of Fragrance that should have existed in his memory was nowhere to be seen!
He had lived for 150 years in the human world, and he had been floating on the sea for 60 to 70 years. He did not know how many times he had looked forward to it, but he also did not know how many times he had been disappointed.
He was 180 years old. He had been traveling on the sea for 70 years since he left the Nine Provinces. However, it was as if the heavens were playing a joke on him. He clearly had the ability to revive the country of Xiangzhi, but he could not find any trace of it!
This year, this human Buddha stood alone on the ocean in silence for a long time.
In the end, he could only sigh and return in the direction of the sunrise. At the age of 193, he silently returned to the Nine Provinces and sat cross-legged in the Bodhidharma Cave again.
For nearly a hundred years, the debate between Buddhism and Zen in Nine Regions ended with the debate between Huineng and Shenxiu, the six ancestors of Zen. Since then, Zen and Buddhism were generally unified.
However, there were still some disciples of the Buddhist Sect who left. They were in the Western Regions and in other places, they adhered to the Buddhist Sect's ideals.
Two hundred years old, Dharma was still facing the wall. Even the most profound Zen master in the world did not know what Patriarch Bodhidharma was thinking about.
They thought that their founder was going to become a Buddha, but who knew that Bodhidharma was just trying to find his lost hometown?
When he was 250 years old, he met Zhang Sanfeng. In each other's Bodhidharma Cave, his shadow had already been imprinted on the mountain wall four times!
Each shadow represented a complete martial arts legend! It was not until countless years later that Zhang Sanfeng found out that Bodhidharma had already reached the martial arts mythological realm four times when he was over 200 years old!
"He became a martial arts legend four times in order to break through. It was to truly possess the power of an immortal god, to find his lost hometown!”
"I think I know why Patriarch Bodhidharma created the longevity technique! He was afraid, afraid that he would die before he could find his lost hometown.”
"He's a human Buddha, and also a Wandering Guest.”
In Qixia Town, Xu Fengnian looked at Bodhidharma's figure with pity in his eyes. This Bodhidharma could be said to be a heaven-sent talent, but in Bodhidharma's eyes, he was just a wanderer who couldn't even find his hometown.
At the age of 300, the abbot of Shaolin Temple thought he was smart. He created a Western paradise, he conceived reincarnation, he integrated Buddhist Bodhisattvas and Arhats into his fictional story.
He made all the Buddhist disciples in the world call it the Western Paradise. He thought that he could get Bodhidharma's appreciation by doing so.
However, after Bodhidharma saw the legend of the Western Paradise, he only shook his head.
This year, he went west to sea.
In the Bodhidharma Cave, he left behind five shadows.
Sixty years later, Bodhidharma returned.
This was the third time he went west to sea in the year of 450! At the age of 500, he stayed in the Bodhidharma Cave alone and did not come out!
