He voiced his doubts. The Faceless Buddha heard him and asked, "What is a Buddha?"
His question stumped Su Yu.
In his eyes, the so-called Buddha was a living being that cultivated the Buddhist Dao.
As for what Buddhism was, he did not have a deep understanding of it.
"The so-called Buddha is an existence that absorbs the faith of all living beings and the incense of the world to become powerful."
Su Yu suddenly understood. The more famous a Great Buddha was, the more incense offerings and offerings they would receive.
In the end, this was a form of faith, just like Su Yu, who was worshipped by the living beings of the Zhenlong Continent, Jiuzhou, and the God Realm.
It was just that Su Yu had never absorbed those beliefs and had never become a Buddha.
Although the method of Nirvana to absorb the faith of all living beings was different from Buddhism, it was still the same.
It did make sense to say that they were Buddhas.
"If I'm not mistaken, the one who created Nirvana must be a Buddhist expert. Moreover, he must be someone who lives in seclusion outside of the world," the Faceless Buddha said slowly.
Live in seclusion outside the great world? Who could that be?
However, this was not important. What was important was why the Buddha of All Lamps had yet to awaken.
As he was pondering, a strong repulsive force suddenly sent Su Yu out of his body and back to the head of the Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps.
The three of them were sitting cross-legged, comprehending something. Their bodies were covered in a thick layer of dust.
When they sensed Su Yu's presence, the three of them opened their eyes at the same time. Their eyes were still filled with understanding.
It seemed that they had gained a lot in the past few years.
"Did you succeed?" asked the Flood Dragon Sovereign.
Su Yu shook his head.
"Paying respects to the Buddha of Ten Thousand Lanterns!" Suddenly, the Future Buddha sensed something, and he clasped his hands together and bowed.
Immediately, all the buddhas in the Western Pure Land worshiped the Buddha of Ten Thousand Lanterns.
They, who were originally on top of the Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps, felt a moment of dizziness, and then they appeared on the ground.
The Flood Dragon Emperor and the Xuanming Dao Master, who were both Dao Masters, had no way of resisting.
The two of them stared at the gigantic Buddha with fear in their eyes.
His strength was unparalleled.
Su Yu looked up and saw that the Great Buddha, which was as tall as the heavens, was slowly opening its huge eyes.
A pair of eyes filled with images of flowers, plants, insects, fish, birds, and beasts quietly overlooked the earth.
The Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps had awakened!
Although he was about to pass away.
"Who is the one who saved me?" The Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps let out a sonorous voice and asked.
Before Su Yu and the others could speak, the Future Buddha stepped forward, put his palms together, and said, "Reporting to the Buddha of All Lamps, it's them!"
He was pointing at a group of people, but he wasn't pointing at Su Yu's group, but in another direction.
The Dao Master of Myriad Arts, Sheng Yuanxin, and Jian Mie hurried over and stood in front of the Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps. They bowed and said, "Greetings, Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps."
"Were you the ones who saved me?" the Buddha of Myriad Lamps asked calmly.
The Dao Master of Myriad Laws bowed: "Indeed, but this is what we should do"
Hearing this, the Jiao Dragon King felt that he had been caught off guard.
He had witnessed with his own eyes how Su Yu had rushed about for the Tao Stone and how much time he had spent saving the Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps.
In the end, the Future Buddha actually opened his mouth and lied, pushing the credit to the Dao Master of Ten Thousand Arts and the others who didn't do anything!
"Wait!" The Jiao Dragon King said, "We are the ones who saved you, not them!"
The Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps looked over slowly and said, "Future Buddha, do you have anything to say?"
The Future Buddha said calmly, "Buddhas don't lie. Those who lie can only be mortals."
His face was calm and peaceful, and there wasn't the slightest bit of guilt on it.
The Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps nodded slightly. "No matter who you are, where you come from, where you are going, or why you are pretending to be my savior, as the fated people who will witness my death, you can all just watch from the sidelines!"
When he finished speaking, a ray of Buddha's Light shrouded the four of them, trapping them within it and rendering them unable to move.
"What?" Even Qin Xianer was angry on behalf of Su Yu. He had gone too far!
It was one thing for the Future Buddha to lie through his teeth, but how could the Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps be so muddle-headed?
Without any serious questioning, he had concluded everything based on a single sentence, "Buddhas don't lie"?
"What bullsh * t Buddha! This has really broadened my horizons! " The Xuanming Path Master snorted coldly and slammed his palm on the Buddha's Light. The Domain of Asura naturally gathered in the center of his palm.
However, the light shield of the Buddha's Light merely trembled for a moment before it was completely blocked.
The Flood Dragon Emperor also attacked furiously. The two Path Masters activated their domains simultaneously, but they couldn't do anything to the light shield.
They were like trapped flies, unable to do anything.
"This is infuriating!" The Flood Dragon Emperor felt that this was unreasonable.
Not only did they not receive anything in return for saving people, but they were also imprisoned!
The Future Buddha glanced at them nonchalantly before withdrawing his gaze expressionlessly.
The Path Master of Ten Thousand Laws and the others also looked over and shot him a faint, mocking smile.
He had once said that they would meet again sooner or later.
Now, that was indeed the case.
Moreover, he had even taken away their credit.
Jian Mie stared at Su Yu with a contemptuous look and said sarcastically, "Thank you for helping me! Wait until I light up the oil lamp, then I will repay you properly! "
The words "repay" were spoken in an unusually heavy tone.
Sheng Yuanxin wanted to help, but couldn't. She looked at the Future Buddha with disdain in her heart.
What Buddha? After all, he was just a first-grade mortal clothed in a pure and holy appearance.
The Path Master of Ten Thousand Laws had given the Future Buddha many benefits, including the Ten Thousand Laws Realm. That was why they were in such a situation today.
What she was most worried about at the moment was that once Jian Mie lit up the oil lamp, his combat power would skyrocket by ten times, and he would be close to the Path Master.
At that time, Su Yu would be in great danger if he fought alone.
Now, Su Yu should not be worried about his credit being taken away, but whether he could leave this place alive.
She was extremely anxious, but she was too weak to stop him.
The Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps looked at the Path Master of Ten Thousand Laws and the others and said, "The Buddha will help those who are fated. Do you have any request for saving me?"
The Path Master of Ten Thousand Laws nodded slowly and pointed at Jian Mie. "This is a Holy Mortal Body. Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps, please light up his oil lamp!"
Jian Mie was a Holy Mortal Body?
The Flood Dragon Emperor and the Xuanming Path Master both became serious.
How rare was a Holy Mortal Body?
Whenever one appeared, it was usually taken away by the Palace of Heaven. How could one be in the outside world?
The Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps nodded slowly. "I can see it! He has an oil lamp in his body. "
As soon as he finished speaking, an ancient oil lamp appeared involuntarily on Jian Mie's chest.
It looked almost the same as Su Yu's, except that it was slightly smaller.
"Death is like the extinguishing of a lamp. When the lamp is extinguished, the person is gone!" The Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps said, "Are you sure you want to light the oil lamp?"
Once it was lit, the oil lamp was his life.
If it was accidentally destroyed, it would be the end of his life.
Jian Mie was already mentally prepared. He said, "I'm sure!"
He was confident that after he lit the oil lamp, there should be very few things that could threaten his life.
So what if he lit it?
"If you insist, then I will light the oil lamp for you!" The Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps said slowly.
An oil lamp slowly appeared on the top of his head. The flame of the oil lamp was weak, as if it would be extinguished by a gust of wind.
That was the last remaining light of the Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps.
It was only enough to light someone else's oil lamp once!
The last wisp of flame left the oil lamp of the Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps and flew slowly towards Jian Mie.
Jian Mie closed his eyes and welcomed the arrival of this moment!
Finally, the wisp of flame lit up his oil lamp, and the extinguished oil lamp was abruptly ignited.
Seeing this, the Path Master of Ten Thousand Laws was excited. After so many years of hard work, he had finally succeeded!
Once the oil lamp was lit, he could completely awaken his mortal body.
By then, in the entire galaxy of the six-star civilization, there would be few enemies who could compete with him.
Jian Mie's heart was filled with extreme joy.
The awakening of the mortal body was just around the corner.
However, at this moment, the flame of his oil lamp was getting bigger and bigger, and there was no sign of it stabilizing.
The flame burned through the wick, and the entire oil lamp was ignited.
At the same time, the flame burned Jian Mie himself.
"Ah!" Jian Mie screamed in panic. His whole body shook, and he tried in vain to isolate the flame with his martial energy.
But it was of no use!
The flame quickly spread throughout his body, burning him alive.
The Path Master of Ten Thousand Laws' face stiffened, and he immediately used his domain to help Jian Mie extinguish the fire.
However, as soon as the domain touched the flame, it was also ignited.
He was so frightened that he immediately retracted his domain, and looked at the Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps in shock. "What's going on?"
The Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps said calmly, "You have to ask where his oil lamp came from. A true mortal body lamp wouldn't be like this."
The Path Master of Ten Thousand Laws' face changed again, and he could only answer truthfully, "He … is an artificial mortal body. Only by transplanting a Dharma Mirror into his body can he become a mortal body."
"I see." The Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps nodded slowly. "A true oil lamp should be something that a mortal body comprehended on its own, and condensed from ten thousand Daos to become a god. It is filled with the will of the world, and that is why it can withstand my Buddha fire."
"An artificial mortal body is ultimately an artificial body. It lacks the will of the world, and naturally cannot withstand the Buddha's light. It is only natural for it to be annihilated."
As he spoke, the raging flames on Jian Mie's body suddenly retracted, turning into a small, weak flame, and returned to the Buddha of Ten Thousand Lamps' head.
The oil lamp on Jian Mie's chest had already been burned to ashes, and he himself was unconscious, and his heartbeat was extremely weak.
The Path Master of Ten Thousand Laws stepped forward to examine him, and his expression changed drastically. "His Sword Heart …"
The Sword Heart was close to death, and only an extremely weak heartbeat remained.
"The Sword Heart's blood has been burned, and the Sword Heart … is almost destroyed. If you still want to keep him alive, you should get him a new heart."
The Path Master of Ten Thousand Laws' eyes were full of regret. The Sword Heart, that was the one and only Sword Heart.
Only the descendants of the Path Master of the Sword could have a Sword Heart, and with a Sword Heart, they would become the new Path Master of the Sword Dao.
With such a loss, where would he find another one?
Not only did he not succeed in lighting up the oil lamp, but he also cut off the possibility of Jian Mie becoming a Path Master. All living beings could only become half-step Path Masters!
"I regret it!" He had spent so much effort, but in the end, he went for wool and came home shorn.
