"More than seven hundred people..."

This number pierced Ran Deng's heart like a sharp knife, causing his body to sway. It seemed that he had lost all his strength in an instant. The palm holding Qi Wuhuo's sleeves was loosened, and then he fell.

He looked pale, and his originally straight back suddenly collapsed. He immediately closed his eyes, tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, and murmured:

"It's actually like this, how could it be like this?"

Qi Wuhuo could feel a strong sadness from the monk in front of him. The foundation of Ran Deng itself was broken due to torture. At this moment, he was feeling extremely sad and his mind was a little scattered. His energy was in chaos. The Taoist held his shoulder with one hand.

, said: "Master Ran Deng, what exactly did you encounter?"

He was asking, and he also hoped that Ran Deng could divert his thoughts.

The monk closed his eyes and replied: "After the separation from the demon world, the poor monk briefly returned to the Buddhist Kingdom, and then noticed that in the thousand years since I left, an extreme and persistent practice seemed to have gradually flourished inside the Buddhist Kingdom. I am worried.

This kind of practice will gradually make them go astray, so they explore all the way..."

As Ran Deng narrated, Qi Wuhuo and Guan Shiyin seemed to have seen his experience, saw him discover clues, gradually follow the clues, and finally discovered Landuo Temple. However, they found that fellow practitioners helped him along the way.

Friends who have been together for eight thousand years have also fallen into this evil way.

When Ran Deng desperately wanted to save those people, it also meant that he had entered a desperate situation.

Then he was betrayed by a fellow Taoist whom he absolutely trusted, and was nailed directly through the back with a filthy magic weapon.

In the end, Ran Deng struggled, but was defeated because the demon kingdom's injuries had not healed. A group of Buddhist cultivators from Landuo Temple captured Ran Deng, but they couldn't kill him, and they couldn't release him - Ran Deng was an extraordinary follower after all.

Regardless of whether he is killed or released, there will be many consequences.

Without further ado, he found thirteen bone-penetrating blood nails and pierced the Dharma veins in Ran Deng's body, destroying his foundation.

Then make him a [Buddha in the flesh] too!

It was sealed in the largest, most majestic and graceful Buddha statue in the entire Landa Temple, and the core of the great seal of the Mandala of the Embryo Realm suppressed the strong Buddhist aura of Ran Deng. If it were not for the persistence in this monk's heart, he would have informed

The outside world would have been extinct long ago if we had rescued the people here.

Now that he knows that the Buddha is behind the Landa Temple and the deaths of the people, Ran Deng feels gloomy for a moment, and his foundation is basically broken. He used to be able to control it with his strong thoughts, but now he feels as if he is dead because of his heart.

The Qi vessels flowed turbulently and scattered, and countless Buddha lights emitted from his whole body.

Guanshiyin looked anxious and said:

"Senior Ran Deng, please calm down first, otherwise, your cultivation will..."

Ran Deng did not restrain his dissipated Qi, and just let it dissipate, saying: "Avalokitesvara, you entered Buddhism at a young age. I once watched you step into the Buddhist kingdom. Why do you practice Buddhism?

"

What is the purpose of practicing Buddhism?

For the vast Dharma?

Or to save the common people?

Guanshiyin didn't know how to answer for a while.

Ran Deng sat cross-legged, applied the Great Fearless Seal, gave the Wishing Seal, showed compassion and gentleness, and said softly:

"Before he disappeared, Buddha once asked me a question, [Where is the end of spiritual practice?]"

"I meditated hard for eighteen days, and I didn't know how to answer him. When I woke up from my thinking, he had already passed away and entered Nirvana. I didn't answer him, and I didn't know what his answer was.

What."

"I practiced Buddhism just to find an answer. I originally thought that when I reached the same realm as him, I would be able to answer his question. However, in such a long time, I have practiced all the seventeen channels of Buddhism.

, but still never came to his side."

Guanshiyin saw that his Yuan Qi was dissipated and his spiritual light was dim, so he hurriedly consoled him:

"Buddhism is boundless. If you continue to practice, you will definitely find the answer!"

"Answer? Maybe..."

"I used to think so too."

Ran Deng said: "Now I understand that all the Buddhas of the 17 lines will acquiesce to the behavior of Landa Temple."

"Perhaps not all of them acquiesced, but at least some of them did not object. Such practice itself has deviated from the Buddha's Dharma. How could I go to his side and answer his questions if I practice their seventeen-channel Dharma?

Woolen cloth?"

This old monk who spent 17,000 years practicing the Dharma of the 17 channels and then destroyed the foundation of the 17 channels sighed.

It seemed like I had put down something heavy that I had held for a long time, and I felt a sudden sense of relief.

He said:

"I don't practice Buddhism anymore!

No more practicing Buddhism!

There seems to be a huge determination in these four words. Guanshiyin and Qi Wuhuo both felt the indignation and determination in it, so they knew that they could no longer comfort him and could only look at the man who was said to have accompanied the original Buddha.

The foundation of a monk is scattered, just like a lamp going out.

But at this moment, a little head popped out from the window sill.

It was made of pink and jade, with a hawthorn coated in syrup in its mouth, chewing it with big mouthfuls.

The little Yaoling who bought the candied haws just came back and heard those words.

He is not like Qi Wuhuo or Guanyin. He does not see as much as they do, and he does not see as clearly as they do.

So there was no trace of dust in his heart, he just smiled and said:

"You don't want to practice Buddhism anymore? Then why don't you come with us?"

"We don't practice Buddhism, we-"
