Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 40 - 37: For You, But You Couldn’t Catch It
Heavy rain poured down, with large raindrops splashing on the ground like marbles, scattering in all directions.
Leng Dao silently advanced towards the lower levels, lifting his terminal.
A deep voice came from the other end of the terminal, Zhang Chongba's:
"I now know how Li Buyi ambushed that Heart Image Warrior back then!
Not only did his Chains Realm awaken the Blood and Flesh Divine Power, but he is also from the Spiritual Submarine lineage!
Only with this possibility could he have broken through the blockade I set up and sneaked into Qiu's home!"
The four Chains Realms, somewhat akin to the divine intricacies of the Heavenly Person's Five Limits, yet the miraculous aspect was far beyond what Body Refining could compare.
Leng Dao made no comment, only simply stating:
"I'm starting to gather power."
Zhang Chongba was silent; Leng Dao gathering power meant he was going for a decisive strike, risking his life.
"Wait a bit longer, my cousin and I are almost there," Zhang Chongba spoke in a deep tone, "Jing Qiu shouldn't be in life-threatening danger, he is Buddha's son. Li Buyi's goal in capturing him is to send him back to the headquarters of the Supreme True Buddha Sect, not to kill him…"
"Hurry up." Leng Dao cut him off and then ended the communication.
He gazed into the distance, locking onto the figure that was trying to shake him off through the heavy veil of rain.
…
Li Buyi looked back thoughtfully:
"It seems there are quite a few flies behind Buddha's son."
"But no matter, soon someone will help us block them, so they won't disturb us."
Ji Jingqiu did not respond.
The sound of the rain seemed like it could drown the whole world.
Although it was unclear how Li Buyi had evaded Bage's surveillance to sneak into his home, after stepping out of the house, Lord Blade must have noticed his circumstance.
His life shouldn't be in immediate danger.
Even without mentioning the Visualization Map, the other's goal wasn't to kill him, but to take him to the Supreme True Buddha Sect as the so-called "Buddha's son."
Soon, Li Buyi brought him to the lower districts of Taian City, taking many detours, and arrived at an extremely hidden abandoned building.
Entering the deepest room of the building, Li Buyi couldn't wait to hang the Visualization Map on the wall, pulling Ji Jingqiu to sit down cross-legged.
He earnestly said: "You teach me, and I won't harm you."
Ji Jingqiu calmly responded: "Okay."
Li Buyi was pleased: "Enter into meditation visualization, release your spirit, and let me enter your Inner World to imprint it."
Ji Jingqiu seriously asked: "Are you serious?"
In his knowledge, such a method didn't exist in the world.
Li Buyi smiled: "I possess a Divine Skill called Spiritual Submarine, which allows me to briefly move through the Sea of Souls, and even enter another's Inner World, as long as the host doesn't reject."
In reality, entering another's Inner World is extremely dangerous.
The Inner World is like one's own Heaven and Earth, where all external forces are suppressed. However, in Li Buyi's eyes, Ji Jingqiu, both in terms of Martial Arts and spirit, was too weak.
And imprinting the Inner World was the only method he could think of.
He couldn't understand the Visualization Map at all. To verify, he must enter Ji Jingqiu's Inner World and find out.
He had never been a risk-taker.
In his life, he never gambled big, but this time he felt he had to take the risk.
Because fate wouldn't give him a second chance to encounter the Supreme Method!
He wouldn't gain the tiger's cub if he didn't enter the tiger's den!
Ji Jingqiu closed his eyes and entered meditation visualization.
Quickly, he felt a spirit full of greed and delusion knocking on the door to his Inner World.
The four square meters of Pure Land, accommodating two people and a tiger, seemed extremely crowded.
Li Buyi, frowning, threw out the tiger cub roaring in anger at him.
His gaze instantly locked onto the swaying Bodhi above.
The Supreme Wisdom Light emerging from it enraptured him, nearly bringing him to his knees in worship.
Even though he had never seen it before, merely feeling it from a close distance, he recognized it as the 'Miracle' pursued by the Supreme True Buddha Sect for thousands of years!
It was said to be the spiritual origin of everything that bloomed in the initial moment when the universe was opened, and all things were first born!
At this moment, Li Buyi finally realized what kind of opportunity he had encountered.
This was indeed the Supreme Method!
And it was also the Fire House Buddha Hell Visualization, which the Mu Family claimed to be the origin of Federation Visualization, unachieved in reality by anyone for ten thousand years!
It was the Visualization Inheritance that the Supreme True Buddha Sect had schemed for years but never obtained!
This young Bodhi tree, although small, would eventually grow in the Sea of Souls to touch the sky and support a section of the Supreme Divine Country, just as Marshal Mu, one of the Seven Marshals, did in the original Divine Country ten thousand years ago!
By then, he would become a God!!!
What Heavenly Person Inheritance, in front of this, was merely trash!
This was the first big gamble of his life, and he gambled correctly, even winning!
Coming back to his senses, Li Buyi tremblingly began to imprint.
But no matter how he tried, he could never imprint a fraction of the divine charm of the Bodhi tree in front of him.
Reluctantly, he looked at the Pure Land under his feet.
Wanting to try imprinting the Pure Land, but the result was still a failure.
"Why?! Why can't I imprint your Inner World?"
"How did you comprehend the Fire House Buddha Hell Visualization Map and plant this precious tree? Are you hiding something?!"
Li Buyi was angry yet unwilling.
He suddenly remembered.
For ten thousand years, the Mu Family had produced three Supreme Grandmasters, yet none could achieve the realm of "Seeing Bodhi."
It was not that they were unwilling.
But rather, they couldn't do it.
Despite the Mu Family's generations offering it for no cost for contemplation to the Arrogant Sun of the era, to date, no one had seen Bodhi, let alone Self-Generated Pure Land.
This situation, naturally, isn't something a simple "imprinting" can solve.
But, instead of regaining his calm, he became more impatient.
The chance to become a god was right in front of him, but he couldn't touch it. This urgency was like a fire growing more and more intense, igniting his calm and cautiousness, causing him to gradually lose his reason.
Moreover, even if the successive generations of Martial Arts Pride couldn't comprehend it, even if Ji Jingqiu was born a Buddha's son, what about it?!
He must have had another opportunity!
Take it!
Ever since entering, Ji Jingqiu's gaze had never settled on the Bodhi but instead on the blood and fire Heaven and Earth outside the Pure Land.
He had always been curious about what Pure Land was.
Until now, he realized.
That was the manifestation of the hardships he had gone through.
It was also his everything.
Facing Li Buyi's interrogation, Ji Jingqiu nodded: "There are indeed some preliminary steps, the Upper Upper Rank Visualization Method is not that simple."
"I knew it!"
Li Buyi's spirit was invigorated.
His expression twisted with excitement, almost pleading:
"Tell me, give it to me, I won't harm you. Once I enter the Divine Realm, I will designate you as my Divine Chosen!"
Ji Jingqiu slowly stood up.
"It's simple, it's actually right in front of you."
As he rose, a small Bodhi tree that had been casting Glazed Glass Light began to retract its light, and the Pure Land it enveloped began to dissipate.
He looked up at the sky beyond the Pure Land, the blood-red rain drizzling down on his hardened face, muttering,
"Just go through everything I have gone through."
Li Buyi also stood up, confused and irritated, "How can I experience all your past? Do I need to spend decades reenacting your life?"
Many thresholds in visualization maps also include the "Mental Realm".
Only by comprehending the creator's original mentality can one cross the threshold.
Ji Jingqiu remained silent, only looking upwards.
The sky leaned toward the northwest, the ground sank to the southeast.
Blazing fresh blood poured down from the collapsing sky.
All things in the world seemed to sink into the Bitter Sea.
Suddenly, he gained a new understanding of this Inner World.
He said:
"My entire life is right here."
"If you want it, just take it."
Li Buyi followed his gaze and looked up.
The sky was full of blood rain.
In an instant, he was drenched like a drowned rat, frowning in confusion at this wonder, his face suddenly changed!
In an instant, unprecedented agony spread throughout his body, making him suddenly wail.
As if reliving his whole life's events, countless dead souls with fierce faces, one after another, rushed toward him, dragging him into hell, plunging him into the Bitter Sea!
Various turbulent emotions surged from the bottom of his heart, he struggled to resist, maintaining his spirit as though it were the void.
Vaguely, there was a sign of transformation and sublimation amidst the crisis!
He endured through birth, aging, sickness, death, resentment, separation from love, and the ardent five obscurations, but fell at the last hurdle.
Unattainable!
The path to becoming a god so close at hand, the reachable Supreme Heavenly Inheritance...
Yet, he could never reach it, always unattainable!
In a daze.
Li Buyi saw a dark sea.
Profound and vast, the surface appeared calm, yet he saw endless surging darkness and despair, once stuck, it's hard to extricate oneself.
He wanted to escape but was swallowed by the bottomless waves of the Bitter Sea, constantly pulled toward the seabed.
Struggling within, never to transcend.
He wanted to flee this Inner World, but was terrified to find he absolutely couldn't!
This Inner World, as if it had come alive, suppressed him.
Li Buyi suddenly recalled a ludicrous rumor—
It was rumored that the Mu Family ancestors connected the Inner World with the Sea of Souls, attempting to bear the weight of the Bitter Sea for all beings by their own strength.
…
At this moment.
Like Li Buyi, Ji Jingqiu was also reliving dire straits.
He was swallowed by the cold black surging waves.
Yet in that deep sea full of pain and despair, he saw a gleam of light.
It was resilience and hope.
It was a plant that had grown through the cracks in stones, never completely burnt away.
It was also his life that never bowed its head in the face of hardship.
Something seemed to slowly flow through his heart.
It was countless times of uplifting, countless times of struggles, countless times of wishing to continue living…
At this moment, those struggling figures in past hardships came flooding in and then silently faded.
It was so.
Life is impermanent, worldly affairs are impermanent, and all beings are impermanent.
His life from the beginning was filled with hardships and injustice, but he also gained immensely precious things.
Ji Jingqiu stretched out his hand.
That undying spark of light fell into his hand.
[My heart reaches the other shore, unaffected by myriad calamities]
At this moment, there was no Glazed Glass Pure Land.
But as he settled down here—
The sky poured down a rain of blood, and the elements of earth, water, wind, and fire raged, yet nothing could harm him in the slightest.
Uninvaded by Bitter Sea, untouched by calamities.
…
In Li Buyi's eyes.
This 𝓬ontent is taken from fгeewebnovёl.co𝙢.
In that boundless ocean full of pain and despair, a mysteriously aged green Liu Li lamp suddenly lit up.
Its gentle and bright flame illuminated the depths of the Bitter Sea, seemingly lighting a direct path of transcendence for all beings.
He foolishly extended his hand, wanting to grasp that green lamp.
But what he encountered was a bowed, ferocious Blood Tiger.
A massive bloody tiger stepped out from the darkness, its chilly and wild tiger eyes emitting a thick aura of Blood Evil.
It seemed to grow endlessly, every drop of blood rain nourishing its tiger body.
It bowed its head, starting to devour.
"Buddha's son, save me!" Li Buyi was petrified.
Not far away.
Ji Jingqiu looked down at him, his gaze neither joyful nor sorrowful, without a ripple.
I gave you the Visualization Map, you said you couldn't understand.
I brought you to the Inner World, yet you couldn't endure.
The Heavenly Mechanism opportunity is right here.
But given to you, you can't accept it.
What can be done?
