” Si Pu La, you are the first god to fall in my hands…”
At the same time, Xia Ping ‘an was standing upright on a tall mountain peak more than 7,000 kilometers west of Sin City. Under the starry sky, Xia Ping’ an stood upright with his hands behind his back. He looked at the divine blessings that appeared one after another in the distant space crack. His eyes were calm as if he was watching a grand fireworks show.
If he had killed them in other places, most of Si Pu La’s God’s Blessing would have fallen into his hands, and his strength would have skyrocketed once again. However, if he killed them in that spatial crack, Si Pu La’s God’s Blessing would be sucked into the spatial turbulence as soon as it appeared. In the end, it was unknown who would benefit.
This was also the Heavenly Dao, right? Everything that was obtained from the universe had to be returned to the universe in the end…
Xia Pingan thought to himself.
“Is this the feeling of crushing a god?”
He had once dreamed of what it would feel like to crush a god. It was an immense excitement, an indescribable excitement, an incomparable achievement, and an invincible confidence. But now, Xia Pingan realized that when faced with the light shadows that he brought with him, his heart was actually unperturbed.
He could condense the Taihua Godhead by igniting 18 wisps of divine flames, and after the Taihua Godhead ascended to Godhood, his strength would increase by a large level. It was at least equivalent to the effect of a Supreme God igniting 27 wisps of divine flames. Now, he had already ignited 37 wisps of divine flames. If he wanted to condense a Godhead at this moment, he would have already crossed the threshold of the Qingyuan Godhead. At the same time, his Ming King Seamless Divine Body had already cultivated to the eighth level. He could also exert more than half of the power of the Divine Incarcerate Giant Tower, so it would be easy for him to destroy Si Pu La.
Xia Ping ‘an was slightly moved and surprised by the attack just now. He realized that he had underestimated the terrifying power of the Divine Incarcerate Tower. When facing a god like Si Pu Pu La, Xia Ping’ an realized that his Divine Incarcerate Tower seemed to have awakened in an instant when facing a god. It exploded with a terrifying power that was beyond his imagination. Moreover, the Divine Incarcerate Tower could completely ignore all the divine spells and attacks of the other party. Xia Ping ‘an even had a feeling that this giant pagoda of his seemed to be a divine weapon of the Great Path that existed specifically to suppress and destroy gods.
When the brilliance of the gods in the distant sky gradually faded, Xia Pingan did not care about how excited the Evil Demon City was at the moment. His figure flashed and disappeared from the top of the mountain. His entire body had appeared in the depths of the mountain.
—There was a closed stalactite cave in the hinterland of the mountain. Colorful stalactites which looked like huge bamboo shoots were everywhere in the cave. There were also some stone houses. The entire cave had been sealed by a powerful secret method. Its qi had already integrated with the mountain range. As long as this mountain was not moved away, even deities could not find a secret cave abode here.
This place was one of the few” safe houses ” that Xia Pingan had set up for himself in Sin Demon City over the past few years. A cunning rabbit had three burrows just in case, and it was really useful now.
This time, Xia Ping ‘an had obtained another batch of supreme treasures and resources from the Treasure Tournament, and it was time for him to digest them. Hence, Xia Ping’ an was too lazy to go far, nor did he go too far away from Evil Demonic City. He decided to settle down here and prepare to convert those supreme treasures and resources into strength first.
This time, the Demon God’s side would definitely cause a ruckus. He did not know what other dangers and tests would come. Therefore, he would light a few more wisps of divine flames and fuse with the Demon World Breaking Pearl first.
As for the most precious Spirit God Sealing Fire, Xia Ping ‘an couldn’t fuse with it yet because once he fused with it, he would immediately ascend and become a god. Once he became a god, he would be greatly restricted from entering the Ultimate Yuan Shrine and might not be able to participate in the fight for the crucial Primal Chaos Ultimate Lock.
Therefore, he couldn’t become a god yet. Besides, Xia Ping ‘an’s goal was to become a divine persona above the Ten Thousand Planets. If he wanted to become a god, he had to stand at the peak of the divine persona. Only then would he be worthy of his journey of traversing the myriad worlds and fighting in all directions.
There was no difference between day and night in the secret chamber in the belly of the mountain. It was as if time did not pass. By the time Xia Ping ‘an had calmly digested and absorbed the Divine Essence and Primordial Qi he had obtained at the Treasure Tournament, more than two months had passed quietly. In these two months, Xia Ping’ an had lit up forty-three wisps of divine flames. His Ming King Seamless Divine Body had broken through to the ninth level and was not far from the tenth level.
In the pitch-black secret chamber in the belly of the mountain, as Xia Pingan took out the Devil-Breaking Bead, the entire belly of the mountain suddenly became resplendent under the light of the Devil-Breaking Bead. It was like a celestial palace, incomparably solemn and sacred. There was also celestial music born out of thin air, and the light and shadow of countless gods circled around the pearl in praise!
Even if he didn’t fuse with the Demon Breaking Realm Pearl, just carrying it on him would have many wonderful uses. It was a supreme treasure among Realm Pearls. Legend had it that only the blood of a summoner above the demigod level could activate and fuse with this Realm Bead. This was because the spells provided by this Realm Bead were not able to be used by summoners below the demigod level.
“The Shurangama Sutra…” Xia Ping ‘an’s expression was solemn. He narrowed his eyes as he looked at the three characters in the Realm Pearl. In his heart, he was recalling the contents of this scripture and the history and origins of Hua Xia. He was thinking about how to integrate such a Realm Pearl.
The full name of the Shurangama Sutra is the Shurangama Sutra of the Great Buddha’s Top Tathagata, which is also known as the Shurangama Sutra of the Great Buddha’s Top Tathagata. It is one of the most important scriptures of Buddhism. According to the teachings of the eminent Buddhist monks, the Shurangama Sutra is the Shurangama Mantra mentioned in the Shurangama Mantra. All the demons, evil spirits, mountain demons, water monsters, and all the evil spirits are afraid of the Shurangama Mantra. This scripture is the bone marrow of Buddhism. Without the bone marrow, people will die. The absence of the Shurangama Sutra in Buddhism indicated the demise of Buddhism.
In history, the introduction of the Shurangama Sutra into China was very complicated. In 580 AD, the Wise Master of the Sui Dynasty heard from a visiting Indian monk that there was a treasure book called the Shurangama Sutra in India. In order to get a look at it, the Wise Master built a prayer platform on Tiantai Mountain and prayed in the direction of the Shurangama Sutra every day, hoping to see the Shurangama Sutra as soon as possible. This prayer lasted for 18 years. Unfortunately, the Shurangama Sutra did not reach China until the Wise Master passed away.
In 628 AD, five years after the death of the Wise Master, Master Xuanzang went to the west to obtain scriptures. As India listed the Shurangama Sutra as a national treasure, only a few monks could come into contact with it and were strictly prohibited from flowing out of the country, Master Xuanzang could not retrieve the Shurangama Sutra. It was not until forty years after Master Xuanzang’s death that the Indian monk, Emperor Ci Mi, finally brought the sutra to China.
The reason why the Shurangama Sutra was called a classic for defeating demons was that it started from the beginning of defeating demons and ended from the end. At the beginning of the scripture, Buddha used Ananda to show his fallen karma and said that he would use a divine spell to defeat demons. In the end, the Buddha explained fifty kinds of Yin Demons and taught the Shurangama monk how to become aware of the demons and how to break them. In the middle, all kinds of destruction were based on the destruction of demons, evil, and illusion.
This Realm Pearl was too important, and Xia Pingan had never come into contact with it before, so he couldn’t help but pay attention to it. After thinking about the various things about the Shurangama Sutra, he waited until his thoughts were clear and his aura was calm before dripping a drop of blood on the Realm Pearl. In just a moment, Xia Pingan was surrounded by a golden cocoon of light.
Xia Ping ‘an opened his eyes and found himself in a room that wasn’t too big. He was wearing a simple monk robe and had a long black beard. He was sitting cross-legged and on the table in front of him, there was a lamp and some other things.
Where was this place? Who was he?
This was the first thought that popped into Xia Pingan’s mind. He looked out of the window. Under the moonlight, he could see the outline of an ancient tower. However, when he saw the outline of the ancient tower, Xia Pingan’s heart trembled. The style of the ancient tower was not Chinese, but Indian. He seemed to be in an ancient temple.
Looking at the things on the table, it was an ancient palm-leaf sutra. The scriptures carved on the leaves of the palm-leaf tree carried an ancient and heavy aura. Xia Ping ‘an was proficient in Sanskrit. He only took a glance at the words on the palm-leaf sutra, and his heart trembled violently.” The Great Buddha’s Peak Tathagata cultivated the Shurangama Sutra of the Ten Thousand Lines of Bodhisattvas of Righteousness.” This was the Shurangama Sutra.
On the table, other than the book, there was also a very fine white cloth, a copper pipe, a candle, a knife, a needle and thread, and a medicine bottle.
Ordinary people would definitely be at a loss when they saw such a scene. However, when Xia Ping ‘an saw it, he immediately understood that his current identity was that of Emperor Banmi.
There was a thick stack of the Shurangama Sutra on the table. It was easy to be discovered and damaged if one carried it out of the country. In order to bring the Shurangama Sutra to China, Emperor Banmi had made careful preparations. He copied the Shurangama Sutra in small characters on a fine white scroll, then sealed the white scroll in a copper tube. Then, he cut open his own body and hid the copper tube inside his body. He stitched up the wound. After such painstaking efforts, he finally brought the Shurangama Sutra to China.
The scene in front of him was exactly the scene before Emperor Banmi was about to copy the Shurangama Sutra and store it into his body.
If he wasn’t a person of great wisdom, courage, compassion, and compassion, who could do this?
In order to fuse with this Realm Pearl, he would have to go through the same hardships as Emperor Banmi. He would have to hide the Shurangama Sutra in his body and bring it to China. Then, he would have to meet Fang Rong in Guangzhou. With Fang Rong’s help, he would have to come to the Zhendi Temple to translate and publish it. Only then would it be possible to fuse with this Realm Pearl. Before this, Emperor Banmi had already failed twice to send the Shurangama Sutra to Huaxia for promotion, and was banned at the checkpoint each time. This was the third attempt of Bansmi Emperor.
Xia Pingan looked at the things on the table, and his eyes instantly became determined. He sat up straight and bowed respectfully to the Shurangama Sutra on the table. Then, he unfolded the fine white scroll on the table and quickly copied it in small characters, not allowing a single word to be copied wrong…
“That’s what I heard. For a moment. The Buddha lives in Shiluo Rafting City. 1 live in the temple. And the great monk.
One thousand two hundred and fifty. They were all great arhats without leakages. Abbot Buddha. He is good at surpassing others. He is able to govern the country.
To achieve dignity. Follow the Buddha wheel. It’s a testament. To cleanse the nether. Hongfan Three Realms.
Nirmanakaya is limitless. Save all living beings…”
A day later, the golden cocoon of light on Xia Pingan’s body in the secret chamber in the belly of the mountain suddenly shattered. The shattered cocoon of light turned into golden characters that formed the Shurangama Mantra and flew around Xia Pingan. For a moment, the entire belly of the mountain was filled with the chanting of the Shurangama Mantra.
After a while, the golden characters of the Shurangama Mantra had all entered Xia Pingan’s head.
After a while, Xia Pingan slowly opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Sin Demonic City. His deep eyes seemed to be able to see through the void and see through everything.” Brahms, it was indeed a trap you set up. You hid it well enough.. You almost fooled me…”
