Becoming a Saint by Leisure Reading - Chapter 1004

Chapter 964: First take a break

The empty years pass by in a thought.

It is unknown how much time has passed since the Zhuxian Sword Formation appeared and the Zixiao Palace disappeared into the colorful nebula.

At this moment, the ancient Buddha Ran Deng, who was guarding outside the colorful nebula, slowly opened his eyes.

For some reason, he suddenly had an impulse and felt a sense of fear.

He seemed to see a picture in which his golden body collapsed and all his life’s practice turned to ashes.

As a powerful being who attained enlightenment in the ancient Hongmeng era, Ran Deng may not be the best in terms of combat power, but his grasp of the general situation is extremely accurate.

It’s like some people. You see, they don’t have outstanding abilities and don’t have a strong background, but they always meet noble people, rise to the top, and reap all the benefits of life.

There is no other reason, I’m just good at judging the situation.

Common name: Know how to take sides!

This Ran Deng joined the Chan Sect in ancient times, and after the Conferred God, he decisively invested in the Western Sect. When Jie Yin and Zhunti rebelled and fled to Guixu, he was the first to jump out and respond.

Every step was precisely based on opportunity.

Jie Yin and Zhunti refined the Western Paradise, which was nothing more than a roundabout way to transcend in the way of Guixu. Unlike Zuyuan, who was transformed by Guixu’s will and wanted to destroy the world, Jie Yin and Zhunti only wanted to destroy this world, and then break it and then build it, so as to transcend. When these two are gone, the new world will still have a place for the saint realm.

And he, Randeng, has basically already secured the position of leader by virtue of his surrender over the years.

When the new world is created, he will no longer be the ancient Buddha of Randeng, but the Buddha of Randeng’s Creation of Heaven. Perhaps he can even touch the threshold of transcendence!
With such a big ambition, Randeng naturally does not allow himself to have the slightest accident.

At this time, Randeng looked at the vast and boundless colorful nebula in front of him and frowned slightly.

That’s where my heart palpitations come from.

However, Ran Deng couldn’t understand why this happened.
He naturally couldn’t resist the Immortal Execution Sword Formation, but as long as he didn’t take the initiative to enter the formation, the Immortal Execution Sword Formation wouldn’t hurt him at all.

Master Xuandu?
In terms of combat power, Xuandu is indeed the best among the creations. With the exquisite pagoda of heaven and earth, even if the two Buddhas attack, they can only trap him but not hurt him. But you said that Xuandu could kill Ran Deng, Ran Deng didn’t believe it.

If you can’t win, can’t you just run away?
Then who else can you do that?

Yes, the Lord of the Universe seemed to have rescued Zhao Gongming from the List of Gods.

But even if Zhao Gongming got the Dinghai Pearl again, he would only be able to ascend to the realm of good fortune now, which would not pose any danger to him at all.

Where else could the danger come from?
After thinking for a moment, Ran Deng decided not to think about it.

Whatever the reason, avoid it first.

Randeng’s appearance was solemn and dignified, and he said, “Bao Chi!”

In an instant, a stream of light fell in front of the lotus seat of the Lamp. After the light dissipated, it turned into a human body with a carved head and a pair of golden wings on the back.

“Ancient Buddha, do you have any instructions?” Baochi Yingsheng Buddha put his hands together and asked.

“I just entered into a state of meditation and saw an opportunity.” Ran Deng said slowly, “I will go and investigate. You stay here to take care of it. If anything happens, you can follow the guidance of the Buddha’s light and come to tell me.”

Baochi responded and the Buddha nodded quickly.

Randang then released the infinite Buddha light again, intending to use it to escape into obscurity. At this moment, the colorful nebula suddenly changed.

The colorful nebula that was originally rotating slowly suddenly accelerated and a huge gravitational force erupted from it. In this huge gravitational force, the colorful nebula became visibly fainter.

“Hmm?” Seeing this scene, Randeng couldn’t just leave, so he had to be extremely vigilant and look at the rapidly rotating colorful nebula.

Soon, the colorful colors of the nebula dissipated, and a huge black hole replaced it. In the black hole, there seemed to be several human figures walking out.

“Ancient Buddha, the sword formation has been withdrawn!” Baochi responded with a shout from the Buddha.

Randeng also noticed that the shadow of the Zhuxian Sword Formation that had been hanging above the colorful nebula had now dissipated, and the four ancient swords turned into four streams of light and flew into the black hole.

“Ancient Buddha, I will entangle the great master Xuandu.” Baochi Buddha’s eyes lit up in response. Without waiting for Randeng to speak, he flapped his wings and flew towards the black hole.

Before, in the Sea of Flowing Light, Mother Wu Dang used the Qingping Sword to block him. Just when he was about to kill her, this group of people suddenly used the Zhuxian Sword Formation, nearly costing him his life. He has always remembered this grudge.

Now that the Zhuxian Sword Formation has been put away, it is impossible to rearrange it in a short period of time. As for these disciples of the Zixiao Palace, as long as he can hold back the great magician Xuandu for a while, with the help of the six pure bamboos in the hands of the ancient Buddha Ran Deng, he will be able to severely injure these people!

If I don’t take revenge now, when will I?
When Ran Deng saw the golden-winged Peng eagle swooping down towards the black hole, he did not speak out to stop it. Instead, he made two preparations.

If the Golden-Winged Roc has a smooth journey, he doesn’t mind joining the battle and getting some benefits.

But if something unpredictable really happened as he had just thought, he would be prepared to escape.

…

The golden-winged Roc turned into a ray of golden light and flew rapidly towards the black hole. At this moment, a laugh suddenly came from the black hole.

“Please sit down for a moment, seniors.”

“I am a new generation, and I still need to hone my skills!”

As soon as he finished speaking, a beam of colorful light shot out from the black hole and directly hit the golden light of the Golden Winged Peng Eagle. The two beams of light collided, and the light dispersed, revealing the figures of a man and an eagle. At this time, the Buddha of Treasure Wings had transformed into the true form of the Golden Winged Peng Eagle, with its golden wings spread out like clouds covering the sky, and a pair of sharp claws shining coldly; and under the claws, there was a human figure that was as small as an ant. At this time, he just raised one hand and actually blocked the attack of the Golden Winged Peng Eagle steadily.

The golden-winged Roc paused slightly, then immediately retreated a distance, turned into a golden light again, and attacked Chen Luo.

Chen Luo sighed softly and shook his head.

“Creation, also called Daluo.”

“For Daluo, time and space are eternal.”

“Your speed may shake the essence of other creations, but for me…”

Chen Luo raised his hand again. This time, there was no change in his body, but in the eyes of everyone, he seemed to have turned into a giant as tall as a mountain.

This was not a magical power, but a pure source of power. He used his own power to interfere with the source of all the small universes in the Creation Realm present, making them think that Chen Luo was a giant at this time.

If you think it is, then it is!
Chen Luo raised his hand and pressed it down. Suddenly, a piece of heaven and earth appeared in the void, trying to suppress the golden-winged Roc. Although the Roc was fast, it could not escape this range.

Chen Luo once wrote about this kind of technique.

That is Tathagata’s five fingers pressing down on the sky!

But in the book, Tathagata can turn his five fingers into mountains, while at this moment, Chen Luo can turn the world into heaven and earth with one thought.

Having absorbed the will of the Three Emperors, Chen Luo finally crossed that threshold, ascended to the realm of creation, and obtained the art of creating the world.

Chen Luo’s speed of action was not fast, but his momentum was irresistible. The golden-winged Peng Eagle, trapped by heaven and earth, became alert and called out loudly: “Ancient Buddha, save me!”

“Don’t panic, Bao Chi. I am coming!” Upon seeing this, Ran Deng immediately showed the six pure bamboos in his hand, and his whole body glowed with precious light again, and then…

Disappeared without a trace!

Golden-winged Roc: Σ(Д;)
Chen Luo couldn’t help laughing when he saw this.

It was indeed the Ran Deng that he knew!
However, his men did not stop, but continued to fall.

At this time, the Golden-winged Peng Eagle had already used all its strength, turning into golden light as if trying to break through, but in the eyes of everyone, a strange scene appeared –

The golden light seemed to fly a long distance in an instant, but when you came to your senses, it was still there.

It was not being moved back, nor was it an illusion. The golden light’s flight across trillions of miles was real, but the space within these trillions of miles was constantly exploring, causing the golden light to have a contradictory illusion of flying a long way but staying in the same place.

The next moment, the invisible power of heaven and earth fell on the golden-winged Roc.

The golden-winged Roc seemed to be struggling, but his golden body was shrinking continuously due to the pressure.

Until it couldn’t shrink any further, there was a sudden “bang” and an earth-shattering explosion.

The aftermath of the explosion was enveloped by the power of heaven and earth, without any spillover. To outsiders, it seemed like just a firework exploding.

In the fireworks, countless phantoms of golden-winged Rocs flew in all directions, and then a large millstone seemed to appear in the void, sucking in all the phantoms of the golden-winged Rocs and crushing them.

Everyone could feel that a powerful breath of life was gradually dissipating.

“Alas…” Master Xuandu sighed softly and then bowed.

Upon seeing this, Chi Jingzi, Yu Ding and others also bowed.

They were not seeing off the Golden-Winged Peng Eagle, but mourning the fallen Daoxing Tianzun.

Daoxing Tianzun and Wei Hu, the master and disciple, died at the hands of the golden-winged Peng Eagle.

At this time, Holy Mother Wu Dang, Zhao Gongming, Queen Yunxiao and others also had complicated expressions.

The golden-winged Roc obtained enlightenment in the ancient times of Hongmeng and listened to lectures in the Biyou Palace.

In the past, I served the Seven Immortals. What a glorious life it was.

This is the end of the day.

It’s just that they each have their own stance and they can’t say anything.

Everyone sighed, raised their heads again, and looked at Chen Luo standing in the sky, and smiled at the same time.

They knew that the Great Refining World was the kingly way, and they also knew that with Chen Luo’s background, he would definitely be powerful when he ascended to the realm of creation.

However, it is still a bit exaggerated to say that he could kill the golden-winged Roc with just a wave of his hand and scare away the ancient Buddha Dipankara!

Especially the great master Xuandu, his eyes were filled with excitement.

Compared to others, he knows more.

At present, Chen Luo has simply absorbed the will of the Three Emperors into the universe, and has not yet completely refined it.

But even so, if he has such ability, then when he can completely refine it, wouldn’t he be a saint in the world?
The great master Xuandu, who had been holding on to Zixiao for ten thousand years, finally breathed a sigh of relief this time.

“Let’s go…” Master Xuandu waved his hand, took out the Wind and Fire Mat, and said with a smile, “It’s time to take the second step of the Guixu Plan!”

…

A few days later.

Suddenly, an explosion was heard somewhere in the sky of Wuyinxu.

A ray of light seemed to open up the sky, blooming with endless colorful brilliance.

The indescribable huge force distorted time and space, and finally completely froze the endless void.

A majestic voice sounded in the desolate sky, as if it were a rule.

“The world——”

“Un! The seal!”

Then, a frog croaked in response.

“Quack!”

There was a continuous rumbling sound of thunder, and then there were flashes of light. These light spots seemed like stars in the sky, and they gathered into a galaxy in the blink of an eye.

The galaxy cast its starlight, shining down and casting a series of phantom shadows.

In this phantom, there are magnificent rivers, huge cities, and countless living beings. At this moment, they all raise their heads and look curiously.

The starlight became more and more condensed, and the shadows gradually became more solid.

A world thus appeared in the void.

Eighteen years have passed since Chen Luo formulated the “Wandering Ancestral Land” plan to seal the Great Thousand World.

Until today, the world was finally reopened.

But it’s not over yet.

At the same time as the Great Thousand World was unsealed, four high platforms rose up above the galaxy of the Great Thousand World. A sharp sword was hung on each platform, forming the first killing formation in ancient and modern times – the Zhuxian Sword Formation.

The Zhu Xian Sword Formation was filled with murderous aura, just like a huge gate guarding the world.

In the sky, Chen Luo looked at the scene in front of him and felt relieved.

Finally, the world has the power to protect itself!
“Old Chen…” Chen Luo looked at the Xuandu Master who was watching the world carefully, and said, “When did we swallow the Jade Purity Realm?”

“Don’t worry, I have already sent a message to Brother Nanji.”

“They will arrange it themselves.”

“Tsk tsk tsk, in addition to the four creations, Yuqing Realm also has the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi!”

“You’ve made a profit this time.”

Chen Luo didn’t say anything, just smiled gently.

Seeing Chen Luo’s expression, Master Xuandu naturally guessed what Chen Luo was thinking and said, “Are you still worried about Zu Yuan’s plan?”

Chen Luo nodded: “The more I refine the will of the Three Emperors, the more incredible it seems. Zu Yuan took great pains to collect them, and now he is giving them to me almost for free. I can’t help but worry.”

Upon hearing this, the great master Xuandu’s face became solemn. He looked at the world with his sharp eyes and finally said, “Everyone below the saint is an ant!”

“Even if Zu Yuan really has a plan, it is aimed at the Pure Land of Bliss.”

“We are not worthy of the Demon Ancestor’s efforts.”

“Among all the people who have entered Guixu, you are the only one who still has the hope of becoming a saint.”

“It’s useless to think too much. Improve your cultivation as soon as possible, find your path to becoming a saint, and break through to the saint realm before you can join the game!”

Chen Luo touched his chin and nodded: “Speaking of breaking through to the Saint Realm, I do have a vague idea.”

Master Xuandu was stunned and looked at Chen Luo: “Have you decided on the path to the Saint Realm so quickly?”

Are you kidding me? How can the path to sainthood be so easy to find?

He, the Great Master Xuandu, as well as the Immortal of the South Pole, Randeng, and Kongque, these powerful figures in ancient times, have not found the way to become a saint.

Becoming a saint seems to be just one step away, but this step is extremely difficult.

In fact, the truth is very simple. There are only two requirements on the path to becoming a saint.

First, one must have sufficient foundation to reach the realm of sainthood.

In other words, one must take the main path. It is almost impossible to break through to the Saint Realm by taking unorthodox methods.

So what is the Great Way?
The previous exposition and the interception are the Great Way, and the Way of Vow Power in Western Buddhism is also considered the Great Way.

But the Tao alone is not enough, there is a second requirement.

only!

For example, in the Chan Sect, once Yuanshi Tianzun left, his disciples could no longer leave.

For example, Tai Chi is inaction, Laojun has passed it, so Master Xuandu was stuck.

But the problem is, if you don’t follow the path others have taken, you have to start your own path from the beginning, but if you start from the beginning, you have to meet the first condition.

Therefore, the path to becoming a saint is more difficult than ascending to heaven.

“But the way of the emperor?” Master Xuandu looked at Chen Luo and then shook his head. “Among the ways of the emperor, Suiren’s enlightenment, Fuxi’s determination of principles, and Shennong’s salvation, these three paths are all blocked!”

“In ancient times, the human race had five emperors, who were the five final calamities of creation. In the end, they never reached the level of saints.”

“Don’t underestimate it.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Luo smiled and nodded.

“I know.”

“But no one has walked my path yet.”

Upon hearing this, Master Xuandu nodded slightly and did not ask any more questions.

This kind of thing is extremely private, even if it is about the relationship between myself and Chen Luo, it is best not to inquire about it.

But Chen Luo didn’t care and shrugged: “I want to follow the humane path.”

“The Road to the Red Dust!”

Chen Luo took a deep breath, exhaled, and spoke slowly –

“I use leisure books to become a saint!”
