C1264 What's Going on with This Devil Suppressing Ancient Temple!
Yang Ling heard what Yang Ling said and looked behind him. The person who came was an old monk wearing a shabby monk robe. His face was old but he had a kind look on his face. He seemed to be a master of Taoism.
However, he could sense that this was just an ordinary old man. He didn't have any cultivation base.
He chuckled and said. "I felt an itch in my hand, master, please don't blame me"
The old man laughed:" This Devil Suppression Arhat has a ferocious face. Ordinary people would not dare to look at him again after just one look, but young master dares to touch him lightly. He is much better than ordinary people."
Yang Ling also smiled and said, "Master, you flatter me. I am just a little bolder."
He said curiously, "This stone statue is called the Subduing Devil Arhat. Could it be that there is a peerless devil suppressed below the stone statue?"
The old monk chanted a Buddhist chant and said leisurely, "There is no devil in this world. If there is a devil in one's heart, then it is a devil. If there is a Buddha, then it is Buddha."
Yang Ling nodded and said, "This is clear. Whether it is Buddha or devil, it all depends on one's heart."
The old monk looked at him with a smile and suddenly asked, "Little benefactor, I dare to ask, what is Buddha in your heart?"
"Buddha?"
Yang Ling heard him and said with a faint smile, "In my opinion, buddha is not in Spirit Mountain, nor is he in the Mahavira Hall."
"Buddha is a concept, a way of living, or rather, a way of values."
The old monk stared at Yang Ling. After a while, he sighed and said, "Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not the stage. There was nothing in the first place, so where did the dust come from?"
"All living beings worship Buddha, but they do not know that Buddha is in their hearts."
"I admire the young Almsgiver for having such knowledge at such a young age."
After saying that, he chanted the Buddhist name again and bowed to Yang Ling.
When Yang Ling saw this, he hurriedly returned the bow. "Master's Buddhist Dharma is superb, every word is precious. I'm also impressed."
After the greeting, the old monk smiled and said, "Little benefactor understands this principle, but I feel that benefactor does not think so in his heart. Have you found your own path?"
"Path?"
Yang Ling looked at the ferocious Suppress Magic Stone Buddha in front of him and calmly said, "Isn't the path right under your feet?"
"It doesn't matter whether I'm searching for the Dao or not. The path I've walked is the path I'm about to walk on. That is my Dao. "
The old monk's body trembled when he heard this. He gave Yang Ling a deep look, then put his palms together and bowed again. "Benefactor, with this state of mind, everything in the mortal world can only come to you."
"Benefactor, even though your hands are stained with blood, your Dao Heart is stable and your murderous aura is not tainted. It is truly rare and precious."
When these words came out, Yang Ling was startled. Could this person be secretly referring to the matter of him burning Hai Lou City?
When he thought of this, he hastily turned his head to look at the old monk, but there was no trace of him.
"There is such a thing!"
This was no small matter. With Yang Ling's current cultivation base, even a Peak of Innate Stage wouldn't be able to disappear in front of him.
"Could he be a mighty figure in the Saint realm?"
For a moment, his heart was filled with shock, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was impossible.
After taking a deep breath and feeling his emotions, he turned his head to look at the Magic Suppressing Stone Statue once again. Connecting it to the strand of treasure Qi he had sensed earlier, he had some guesses in his heart.
This stone statue was very likely to be an extraordinary Buddhist magical treasure in the ancient past. However, it had not been properly preserved. After countless years of erosion, its spiritual nature gradually dissipated, and eventually vanished into the passage of time.
Magical equipment had a spiritual nature. The higher the quality of the magical equipment, the stronger its spiritual nature was. Even though its main body was already in tatters, as long as it was not completely destroyed, there would be a trace of spiritual nature in it.
This old monk was most likely formed from a trace of spirit that still existed in the magic treasure!
If that was really the case, then this stone statue was once a world-shaking magical treasure. It could even be compared to Little Dragon Maiden's Immortal Ending Sword and Heaven Upheaval Seal!
Of course, all of this was just Yang Ling's speculation. He wouldn't use his connections to force this stone statue.
Just like what the old monk had said, everything was fated.
Buddhism placed the most importance on fate. If one were to force it, it would instead produce the opposite effect.
Moreover, a magical treasure whose spiritual nature had basically been extinguished was completely useless to him.
With a smile, he nodded at the stone statue and thought about the Tathagata Golden Statue in the middle of the hall.
Although it was different, since he was already here, he still had to show some respect to the Tathagata Golden Statue.
It was the principle of a human being to not act like they were the best in the world.
He had just walked a short distance when he suddenly heard the crying of a girl in the distance. He looked over and saw a middle-aged couple pulling a little girl who was only seven or eight years old outside the Mahavira Hall.
Standing beside them was a boy who was about sixteen or seventeen years old. He was looking at the little girl with an excited expression.
There were many people surrounding them, and there were even a few middle-aged monks standing there with bitter smiles on their faces.
When Yang Ling saw this, he was slightly startled.
"Spirit Body!"
This super cute little girl was a Spirit Body!
She was neither a demon nor a ghost. She was a Spirit Body just like Nangong Ruo'er!
More importantly, Yang Ling could clearly sense the cultivation base of this girl, Late Period of Innate Stage!
According to the records in the Collection of Anecdotes, the appearance of a Spirit Body was a miracle in the world. A Spirit Body like Nangong Ruo'er who retained the memories of her past life was already incredible, but this Spirit Body in front of him actually had a cultivation base!
Furthermore, it was a Late Period of Innate Stage!
What the f * ck was going on?
Yang Ling stared at the little girl, his eyes nearly popping out of their sockets. What was going on with this Devil Suppressing Ancient Temple? First, it was an old monk, and now, there was a Late Period of Innate Stage Spirit Body?
Could it be that this place was suppressing the gates of hell?
In addition, the appearance of the Spirit Body forced Yang Ling to think about the Love Tribulation, but the little girl...
Was she too young?
He was filled with all sorts of emotions. Just what was going on!?
Just as Yang Ling was surprised, the middle-aged woman on the scene had already started cursing.
She pointed at the few monks and angrily said, "What's wrong with you guys? I have already completed the adoption procedures, why is Guang unwilling to leave with us?"
"It's the New Year and we still have to go back to eat New Year's Eve dinner!"
A middle-aged monk smiled bitterly and said, "Mrs. Wang, Guang is still young after all. She should be more shy with strangers."2
"Why don't you rest for a few days and we will persuade her properly."
The middle-aged woman sneered and said, "Restrain for a few days? Another few days! We've already slowed it down by a month! "
" If you didn't want to adopt Guang, do you think my family would give you two million yuan for incense oil? "
"Where's your abbot? Let him come out. I don't believe it today!"
These words shocked the surrounding onlookers. Two million yuan for the sesame oil was not something to be trifled with!
On second thought, although they did not know why this little girl called Guang would be in the temple, she was still so cute. When she grew up, she would definitely be a super beauty.
Looking at the silly appearance of the youth beside them, he might even be a retard.
A child bride!
This thought popped up in everyone's hearts!
