"Break it with the heart?"
When Feng Lin heard Patriarch Subhuti's answer, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
It was as if he understood something, but also as if he didn't understand anything.
Idealism and materialism were the two extremes of philosophy.
However, compared to idealism, where matter constructed everything in the universe, from the small particles to the large stars, materialism was undoubtedly more realistic.
Therefore, when the universe underwent changes, could the illusory idealism really change everything and change the universe?
Even though he had awakened the Spirit Gene and strengthened it to a very high level, Feng Lin didn't dare to believe this.
He couldn't help but bow and ask again, "Patriarch, please enlighten me! When the world ages and the earth decays, what should cultivators do? "
Patriarch Subhuti smiled calmly and sat on the altar. It was as if he had seen through everything in the world. He was calm as if everything was within his control.
"Foolish disciple!" He spoke unhurriedly, his voice like a great bell, cleansing the hearts of people and reverberating in the world. "Haven't you heard that the world is divided into big and small? In the outside world, the sun and moon circulate, the stars move, and the world is pure and turbid. They are all great heavens and earth, nurturing all living things. When the world ages and decays, it's hard for all living things to survive. However, there's always a way out. Life is the spirit of the world, born with spirituality and a small world within. Idealism is power. "The path of cultivators lies in absorbing the source of materialism in the world, strengthening one's own small universe and nourishing one's spirit. In the end, one's spirit manifests, creating a universe of its own. "The world ages, but I'm not. The universe decays, but I'm immortal … This is the path to transcendence! "
The Patriarch spoke of the profoundness of heaven and earth, cultivators, and the spirit. Unknowingly, the surrounding cultivators were already immersed in it, unable to extricate themselves.
Feng Lin sank into deep contemplation.
What Patriarch Subhuti said was the supreme Great Dao, profound and profound. But how should he do it?
Patriarch Subhuti sat on the altar with auspicious clouds behind him, presenting many wondrous phenomena. There was the endless profoundness of being immortal after experiencing ten thousand tribulations.
Being in the great world, the place he stood seemed to be a world of his own. It seemed to be right before his eyes, yet it was far away!
Marvelous, indescribably marvelous!
Wasn't this the profoundness of the Great Dao that the Patriarch spoke of?
Feng Lin's heart was filled with blessings after witnessing the demonstration. He knelt on the ground and said sincerely, "Ancestor, please impart your teachings to me!"
"Audacious monkey! How dare you offend our Patriarch! "
"Unfilial! Chase him out of Mount Huaguo!"
"Get down here!"
…
When the other cultivators saw this, they were both shocked and furious. Where was the slightest bit of calmness from before?
They didn't dare to ask their ancestor for help, but they were secretly envious of this stone monkey. What capabilities did he have to actually dare to raise such a delusion?
Feng Lin, however, paid no attention to their reactions. He just stared fixedly at Patriarch Subhuti, a resolute look in his eyes, as unshakable as a thousand-year-old boulder.
This was the only way he could resolve the disaster of the universe!
Even if he had to be trapped in this mythological illusion-scape for countless years, he had to get an answer. No one would be able to change his mind.
The words of these people were insignificant. So what?
The people in the surroundings criticized incessantly, but Patriarch Subhuti was as calm as before, neither shocked nor angered. He did not agree, but he did not refuse either. He just smiled and asked in reply.
"Wukong, do you know that the Great Dao's mysteries can't be easily taught? If you want me to teach you, do you have a plan? "
Patriarch Subhuti placed emphasis on the words' six ears'. Although his words seemed calm, they were like golden bells ringing in Feng Lin's ears, so loud that even the deaf could hear them.
A pair of clear eyes flashed past a myriad of wondrous phenomena, as if they could see through all illusions.
Feng Lin's body tensed up. He felt that under this pair of eyes, his entire body had been seen through, with no secrets to speak of.
He even felt that Patriarch Subhuti wasn't looking at the stone monkey's body but at Feng Lin's own soul.
One person has two ears. Was the sixth ear referring to him?
Patriarch Subhuti saw through the ten million years and saw him?
How was this possible?
Was this the prowess of a saint?
…
Feng Lin's heart was filled with astonishment. He only felt astonishment, but he couldn't describe it.
He couldn't explain it clearly, couldn't understand it, and couldn't guess it …
With his current limited cultivation, he had no way to imagine what kind of situation a saint was in. He only felt that the universe had experienced the vicissitudes of time, and all the changes were within the saint's control.
Even though he was hiding deep in the stone monkey's body, he was unable to block Patriarch Subhuti's prying eyes.
His gaze seemed to have seen through everything. For a time, Feng Lin didn't know how he should reply. He only bowed deeply and said once again, "Patriarch, please guide me!"
Patriarch Subhuti shook his head and sighed, "Foolish child, foolish child! Don't you know that seeking the Dao forcefully is like a flower in the mirror or the moon in the water? It's hard for it to last long! "
However, Feng Lin wasn't swayed. He bowed again and said, "Patriarch, this is my heart. I'd rather obtain it from the straight path than seek it from the crooked path!"
His words had already expressed his determination.
"You're still unwilling to give up!"
"Audacious! The Patriarch has already rejected him, yet you still dare to offend him?"
"Patriarch, chase him out of Fangcun Mountain!"
…
Humans and demons couldn't coexist.
As a monkey demon, the stone monkey had long been ostracized by a group of human cultivators. Right now, seeing that he didn't know what was good for him, many cultivators criticized him incessantly.
Feng Lin was unmoved, treating these people as nothing.
Right now, Patriarch Subhuti seemed to be infuriated by Feng Lin's repeated offenses. Only the depths of his eyes shone with deep meaning as he suddenly let out a bellow, "Wukong, you're not respecting your teacher. Why aren't you coming forward?!"
"This macaque has offended the Patriarch. He's going to be unlucky!"
"He might even be chased out of Fangcun Mountain!"
"Fangcun Mountain is a holy land for cultivation. Since when can a wild monkey come in?"
…
Low laughter rang out, rejoicing in Feng Lin's misfortune.
Feng Lin drew in a deep breath, controlled the stone monkey's body, and walked forward, prostrating.
"Wild monkey, who asked you not to respect your teacher?!" At this moment, Patriarch Subhuti took out a ruler and suddenly knocked it on the top of his forehead.
It seemed like a light knock, but it was as if thunder had exploded, breaking the perplexity in Feng Lin's heart.
Feng Lin's eyes shone with boundless light, and a loud voice reverberated in his spirit world. It was everywhere, and three big words could be vaguely seen. "Subhuti Limitless Heart Sutra."
There was even a sage who said that in the sky, it was boundlessly vast and immeasurably vast.
"Materialistic things are impossible, but the heart is power! All laws are empty, neither born nor destroyed, neither tainted nor pure, neither increasing nor decreasing. Therefore, there is no color in the sky, no feeling, thought, movement, and consciousness, no eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, will, no color, sound, fragrance, touch, there is no vision, and there is no consciousness. There is no ignorance, and there is no end to ignorance, and there is no end to old age and death, and there is no end to old age and death. There is no suffering, gathering and destruction, and there is no wisdom, and there is no attainment. "Prove the boundless heart, and all laws are comprehended. If the heart doesn't move, and the world doesn't move, prove my Subhuti! … "
In an instant, the endless profoundness of the universe gushed into his mind, and the profoundness of the heart was no longer concealed.
Powerful existences imparting arts, imbuing one with wisdom!
Feng Lin was immersed in the endless profoundness. In an instant, he understood the endless profoundness, but it was as if he didn't know anything.
He could only say it, but he couldn't impart it with words!
"This sutra can save you from the calamity. Go!"
A soft bellow rang out.
At the next instant, a light breeze blew over, and Feng Lin felt as if he was suddenly pushed. His soul became extremely ethereal and light, leaving the stone monkey's body. He rode the wind and soared into the universe.
The illusion started to gradually shatter, and when he looked down …
That sage-like figure was still sitting on top of the clouds, looking at her with a smile and nodding slightly.
Before he could think too much, when he came back to his senses, Feng Lin's primordial spirit had already returned to his body. He was wearing his mecha armor and was in the starry sky.
The calamity of the universe spread out like endless shadows, encompassing all the interstellar humans. None of them could escape and they were struggling bitterly.
Feng Lin's spirit was blessed. He sat in the void and recited the mysterious sutra. His voice wasn't loud, but it instantly spread out to the surrounding outer space. His body emitted a bright light, breaking through all evil barriers.
"Materialistic things are impossible, but the heart is power! All laws are empty, neither born nor destroyed, neither tainted nor pure, neither increasing nor decreasing … "
