Chapter 564 Sea Of Bitterness
Chapter 564 Sea Of Bitterness
In front of the Mountain Jie stood a stone tablet with many Chinese characters engraved on it. It was as if a knife was carving an axe into a stone, but the smooth part of the stroke seemed to be written with a finger. The brush style was different, and the strength was different. Obviously, it was not written by one person. Carefully discern that the demolition was written by two people.
As soon as Gu Tianyou arrived, he stopped. The liaison officer introduced that this was the entrance to the secret realm of the Buddha Realm, and there was a lake called the Sea of Bitterness. This stone stele had existed for countless years. Originally, it was written in Sanskrit, but for some reason, the original handwriting had been chopped out ten years ago. Now that it had been replaced with these handwriting, the locals were familiar with the inside story. Seeing this stone stele, they would not go any deeper.
Gu Tianyou arrived in front of the stone stele. The grey stone body flickered with a dim azure light. In geology, this kind of stone with a metallic texture was called grey conglomerate. Because its texture was too hard, knives and axes were difficult to injure, it lost flexibility, and was hard to carve and fragile, so it was not suitable to be used as a stone stele to record inscriptions. However, the stone stele in front of him was as flat as a mirror, and its handwriting was clear and without any discord. If it was truly made by an axe, then it would truly be a marvelous skill.
After reading for a long time, he shook his head and said, "The original handwriting was not chopped off by someone, but someone wiped it off with his hand. These new handwriting were not carved with a knife, but written on it by an expert with his finger. The content recorded on this handwriting is their comprehension of Buddhism and Daoism."
"Written with your fingers?" The liaison officer looked at the words that were one inch deep into the stone stele and was somewhat disbelieving, "How is this possible?"
Gu Tianyou ignored his doubts and devoted himself to observing the handwriting on the stone stele.
The first person wrote: Miao Truth Azure Green Bamboo is nothing more than Prajna, gloomy yellow flowers are all Miao Truth. There was a faint sense of rebellion in his words, and he jumped out of the Buddhist scriptures to speak the Dao of Things. This line of words was extremely powerful. The silver-hooked iron painting had an extraordinarily sharp aura that seemed to have the intention of stripping off a tablet. It pounced on one's face, causing one's heart to unconsciously tremble endlessly.
The second person replied next to that sentence, "The ancient temple's moonlight meditation does not need mountains and rivers, but extinguishing it also makes the fire in one's heart cool." The handwriting was extremely round and smooth, and the depths were the same. The gaps between the large and small were all calm. However, the first person was advised not to be obsessed with the external scenery and focus on the Buddha Cultivator's heart as the righteous path.
The first person wrote, "Keeping one's heart and mind clean, can one reach the Dao?" Such as grinding mirrors and removing dirt. Desire without desire is destiny. The brush was even deeper than before, and the turning point was even sharper. Especially the last word of life, the dragging brush was like a blade, as if thousands of swords were about to pounce on his face, causing one's heart to tremble with fear.
The second man replied, "Seed is cause, harvest is fruit, everything is made with the mind." Perseverance is like the abyss, perseverance is like tears, everything is impermanent, there will be life and death.
The first person also wrote: Zen heart also, there is Zen in the heart, sit also Zen, stand also Zen, line also Zen, sleep also Zen, everywhere Zen also. Heart does not move, people do not move, do not hurt; If one's heart moved, one would move recklessly, injuring one's body, hurting one's bones, and thus experiencing all sorts of pain in the world!
The second person then replied, "My spiritual will is niannian niannian." Line without line. Yan Wuyan said nothing. Cultivation without cultivation. The guild member, Jin Er. The fascinator was far away. He said. Not detained in rem. Not even a hair's breadth. In the blink of an eye.
The two of them came and went, and what they said was the truth of the Buddhist Chan Sect. However, the second person's strength was exhausted. The handwriting became lighter and lighter, but the color behind it grew darker and darker. It seemed to be a mark left behind by the bloodshed into the stone. In contrast, the first person wrote more and more, but the handwriting became deeper and deeper, and there were no slight flaws in his strokes. Obviously, he was more than one level superior in terms of body technique cultivation.
Gu Tianyou turned to look at Sun Jingfei beside him and asked, "Do you think this handwriting feels familiar?"
Sun Jingfei did not say anything, but Qin Xiaoxiao behind him said, "This first handwriting was left behind by my father."
Huang Yong walked to the stone stele and looked at it with rapt attention. After a long time, he took a long breath and said, "I didn't expect Senior Qin Dangkong to actually be a member of my Dao. It turns out that the Divine Dao of the Heart can actually be cultivated to such an extent. With my current level, even if I write with a saber, it is probably inferior to the second expert. Compared to Senior Qin, it is even worse." He sighed deeply.
Di Haoran also leaned over and stretched out a finger. He used his strength to poke him. He grinned in pain, but he only left a half-inch hole on the stone stele. Squeakily wrote a brush, it was simply unbearable. He couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Isn't the person who wrote this already at the Divine Immortal Realm?"
Gu Tianyou nodded. "If there really were immortals in this world, Probably nothing more than that, A stone tablet like this would explode easily with a single punch. To use a slender and round finger as a carving knife to leave these almost perfect words on it, not only would it require powerful strength, it would also require extremely accurate control of strength. Therefore, writing these words might seem easy, but it was actually a huge test for the cultivation of the Dao Phase soul force. "
"Take a good look, it will be helpful to our cultivation."
Ye Xuhui and Li Chen both moved forward, carefully observing and comprehending, and also attempted to leave a handwriting on the stone tablet one after another, but in the end, their efforts were futile.
Sun Jingfei said, "I'll try using the Diamond Sense." As he spoke, he stared fixedly at the stone stele and slowly stretched out his right hand. His index finger seemed to be lightly touching the stone stele, causing the powder to instantly drift down, leaving behind a clear and profound finger mark. It goes on to say, "You can't say, you can't say, it's wrong to say it." The last word was wrong, but the next word was missing. A look of decay flashed across his face, and it was obvious that his spiritual energy was exhausted and he could not sustain it.
The liaison officer's mouth was wide open as he looked at Sun Jingfei, who seemed to be the weakest. "Are you, are you a living deity? This is really written by hand." As he spoke, he deliberately moved closer and touched it with his hand.
Ignoring his surprise, Gu Tianyou turned to look at Yelu Mingyue and said, "Shouldn't Mingyue come and give it a try?"
Yelu Mingyue nodded and walked to the front. She stared fixedly at the stone stele and muttered something. She stretched out her hand like an ape, but it was the iron monkey in Thai fist that pulled out its teeth.
Scraps of stone flew everywhere, and a line of words gradually became clearer. Compared to Qin Dangkong, the depth was naturally different, but it had already reached the level of the last line of the second person's words. He wrote that only by knowing yourself, subduing yourself, and changing yourself can you change others. When he finished writing, Gu Tianyou could clearly hear the crisp sound of his index finger's fascia joints breaking. This brat is indeed a ruthless person.
Yelu Mingyue retracted her posture and let out a long sigh, "Uncle Qin's cultivation has already reached the Heavenly Mortal Realm. Even the second person is not inferior to my Master Ye Duanpraise. I sigh that I am inferior to the dusty world. I wonder what level Big Brother Gu has personally attacked?"
Gu Tianyou smiled indifferently, "I'm even more unsightly these two times." As he spoke, he reached out his hand to the line left behind by Sun Jingfei and added the last stroke of the word "Ri".
He only wrote one word, and it was as deep as Sun Jingfei's. It didn't seem to be difficult or special. This word was almost perfectly connected, and even the most cunning connoisseurs would find it hard to discover any disagreements. Even the liaison officer who had been repeatedly shocked could tell that Gu Tianyou, the leader of the team, did not perform well.
Gu Tianyou clapped his hands. Jing Fei smiled and said, He had to borrow Geng Jin Yuan Qi to melt the stone before he could make a move. Therefore, the depths of the brush between the lines were almost identical. There was not the slightest bit of knife carving or axe carving in this turn of events. It was even stronger than Senior Qin Dang Kong's. I, a rough man who danced with a spear, was delusional in trying to imitate the traces left behind by him. I couldn't help but be ridiculous. "
Brother Gu and Xiao Beigui behind Yelu Mingyue were not experts in this field. They could not see why. Gu Tianyou's two disciples' cultivation was still shallow, and they could not understand the reasoning behind it. Luo Yi's ability was not in terms of martial cultivation. The two sisters' horizons were limited, and they could not see why. Among the crowd, only Huang Yong, Sun Jingfei, and Yelu Mingyue could see the rich content contained in this small word.
Especially Yelu Mingyue, she immediately showed admiration and said sincerely, "Big Brother Gu's skill seems to be simple, but he has cultivated his soul power out of the Dao Concept. Using manpower to simulate the power of Brother Jingfei's Dao Nian Yuan Qi, it is not too much to call this kind of playful technique 'Don't open up the world'."
Gu Tianyou laughed loudly, "Brothers and sisters, this is a rare opportunity to sparring. Today is just a small interaction between us to enhance our understanding. Don't be so solemn, much less put yourself down. I'm very optimistic about you."
The liaison officer came over and said, "Aiya, no matter who is strong, Anyway, in my eyes, they're all immortals, But even if all of you are as powerful as those perverts in the nineteenth inning, This secret realm of the Buddha Realm was not something that could be trespassed upon casually, "It's hard to get in and out. Besides, you have to save a person from inside. Further ahead is the Sea of Bitterness. There is an island in the middle of the lake. There is a cave on it. It is the entrance to the secret passageway of the Buddha Domain. The wooden boat of the Sea of Bitterness does not cross and the goose feather does not float. According to legend, the water is the Eye Dragon Palace of the Sea. With a monster guarding it, I will no longer accompany you."
Gu Tianyou said, "Along the way, there are primeval forests everywhere. Mountains are high and roads are dangerous. Wild beasts are everywhere. It's all thanks to you, an experienced horse, that you've come here. Why did you start to retreat when you saw where you came from?"
The liaison officer said with a look of embarrassment, "I didn't expect your group to be so powerful, The pythons and leeches alone were enough to drink a pot of water for an ordinary expedition. You had to travel through Rat Valley at night, not afraid of your jokes. At that time, my fart was frightened cold. As a result, Mr. Huang used a little medicine to easily exterminate a country's rats, but it opened the eyes of my frog at the bottom of the well. "
He clasped his fists, "To tell you the truth, I did bring a few expeditions, But only once did he reach this point, The others were either wiped out or abandoned halfway, "We had an insider to help us when we went deeper. We chose to land on a bamboo raft at noon when the monsters in the Sea of Bitterness were inactive. After entering the labyrinth's secret path, we discovered that there were many complicated channels and ravines. It took us a long time to pass through the maze by relying on the insider."
"What happened afterwards?" Gu Tianyou asked.
A look of shock flashed through the liaison officer's eyes. He sighed and said, "Then the whole army was annihilated, The insider told us, There were five obstacles on the way to the Buddha Realm's secret realm, Sea of Bitterness was the first trial, The second stage was called the Hundred Ghosts Dragon Pond, "The third stage is the Mirror Demon Palace, the fourth stage is the Garden of Gods Essence House, and the fifth stage is the Elysium World. Only after passing these five stages can we enter the Buddha Domain known as the Lesser Thousand Worlds. Someone accidentally alerted the pond-guarding dragon beast while we were at the Hundred Ghosts Dragon Lake. In the process of retreat, we encountered a maze of vengeance. In the end, only I escaped with the leader's spear."
"The spear has been here before?" Gu Tianyou was slightly surprised and said, "So that operation was organized by the nineteenth inning?"
The liaison officer nodded and said, "Exactly." "It's not that I'm afraid of death. It's just that this place is too dangerous. Without the help of an insider, going in so blindly is no different from sending you to your deaths. The order I received didn't include sending you deeper into it, so I won't send you in. Please forgive me for that."
"Alright." Gu Tianyou smiled faintly, "Let's say goodbye here."
This liaison officer is not young. People at this age are often old and young, and they have many responsibilities. Gu Tianyou can understand his thoughts.
Everyone decided to say goodbye to the liaison officer and go deeper, but the elephant suddenly refused to move forward, so they could only leave the elephant outside the mountain pass.
Gu Tianyou took the lead in crossing the stone tablet and entering the entrance to the Buddha Domain's secret path. Everyone carefully walked forward. After walking for about half an hour, a mist barrier appeared in front of them, emitting a mixed aura of rotting flowers. The sound of waves landing on the shore could be heard faintly. It seemed that this was the Sea of Bitterness.
The miasma contained hallucinogenic chemicals, and everyone was prepared for this. Gu Tianyou gestured for everyone to prepare the Potion of Patchouli. Although this thing was ordinary, it was the bane of miasma. Everyone walked into the fog barrier without hesitation. Within the dense fog, the water vapor was dense, and the further he went, the colder he felt.
The visibility in the mist was extremely low. Gu Tianyou and Yelu Mingyue walked at the front. With their martial arts cultivation and keen perception, they could only walk cautiously. At this time, the sound of water in front of him became clearer and clearer, as if it was already within reach.
Gu Tianyou turned around and ordered Li Chen to take out the raft from his backpack. Amongst the crowd, Li Chen and Brother Grotto were mainly responsible for carrying the weight. Both of them were carrying huge backpacks, and Brother Grotto was in charge of their supplies. Li Chen was mainly in charge of relatively heavy equipment. Ye Xuhui took out the raft. When he inflated it, he found that the electric inflating pump was not working well. Then, everyone was surprised to find that all the electronic equipment on his body had failed. His phone automatically turned off, and even his watch stopped.
Without an electric pump, it wouldn't be a big problem. Li Chen volunteered to act as a pneumatic pump for human flesh. This guy claimed that he could blow out the vital capacity of the inner tube and didn't blow it randomly. While he was competing with the raft, the others were waiting. Gu Tianyou and Sun Jingfei were not idle. They strolled forward for more than ten meters. Suddenly, a gentle breeze blew in front of them. The fog in front of them dissipated a lot, and a vast lake suddenly flashed out of their eyes.
A gentle breeze blew across his face, sending a strange and deep voice. Sun Jingfei followed the sound and looked over in horror, "Look over there, what's in the water?"
