The old monks stared at the golden mirror in front of them, dumbfounded.
They had been guarding this Buddhist Land for many years and had witnessed many trials, but they had never seen anyone who could make a trial like this.
Considering that the Trial Takers had no cultivation and only had physical strength, the cultivation of the demons in the trial was suppressed, which was a few stages lower than that of the outside world.
The purpose of this was to allow the Trial Takers to display their Buddhist principles.
But who could perform as well as Xu Que?
How could this be called Buddhist principles?
Ah! What kind of bullsh * t Buddhist principles is this?
"This is the doctrine of Buddhism!" Xu Que said eloquently. "I taught you the doctrine of Buddhism. Isn't that the doctrine of Buddhism?"
He stepped on the Roc with one foot and put his other hand on his waist. The dragon pattern on his body was faintly discernible.
System product, Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon Tattoo Sticker, guaranteed quality!
In order to prevent encountering opponents on the way, Xu Que had exchanged his Acting Tough Points for this one-time use item.
Gulp …
The three disciples swallowed their saliva at the same time and looked at each other.
"You don't seem to agree with me?" Xu Que didn't hear them and turned to look at the three of them.
The three of them applauded in unison, "Master is awesome! Master is right! "
Feeling the rising Acting Tough Points in his body, Xu Que smiled satisfactorily.
Sure enough, this was the fastest way to earn Acting Tough Points!
He had vaguely guessed that someone was watching his trial from the outside world. Otherwise, the Acting Tough Points wouldn't have come so fast.
"Alright, disciples, let's go!"
The four of them set out on their journey again. The shadow of the Tempest Temple was right in front of them.
After a few days, they finally arrived at the Tempest Temple.
On the way, they met an old turtle who was collecting tolls. Xu Que used his own methods to teach the old turtle what it meant to help others.
What a joke! It's your honor that I, the Act-Tough Saint, crossed the river and sat on you. You still want to collect tolls?
You're asking for death!
When he arrived at the Tempest Temple, even though he had seen it many times before, Xu Que still sighed with emotion, "This is indeed a treasured land of Buddhism. It's magnificent …"
On top of the towering Spirit Mountain, there was a temple shining with golden light. The sky was filled with rays of light, and the Buddha's light was shining brightly. It was incomparably sacred.
Taking a step up the stairs, Buddhist chants lingered, like clear water cleansing one's soul.
They walked up the stairs and arrived at the main hall, but they did not see the Buddha. There were only two old monks standing in the hall.
"That's true. The ancient Buddha has already left. How could he possibly be waiting here?"
Xu Que also wanted to have a chance to meet the ancient Buddha and ask him what was going on in the west.
Seeing the arrival of the crowd, a trace of surprise flashed through the eyes of the two old monks.
All the trial paths would lead to this place, but they never expected that a trial taker would arrive here so early.
In terms of time, the Trial Takers hadn't even reached the halfway point yet.
But since someone had come, they couldn't just stand there.
"Everyone, congratulations. After experiencing eighty-one hardships, you have finally arrived here." A tall old monk stepped forward with a kind smile on his face, "I wonder what you are going to exchange for the Buddhist scriptures?"
As he spoke, he rubbed his fingers, and his meaning was self-evident.
Kakarrot, Zhu Bajie, and others understood and handed over some of the things they had left on the way.
The tall old monk took it, and his face clearly showed a look of disgust. He threw it back, "Amitabha, this thing is not worthy of exchanging for the Buddhist scriptures."
The disciples were suddenly in a difficult position.
They had no concept of the property of the mortal world. In addition, they were the memories left here by the real Buddha after becoming a Buddha.
After becoming a Buddha, their weak temperament also affected them, and they didn't have any valuable treasures on them.
"Do we have to go back?" Kakarrot frowned, obviously not wanting to go back.
They had come all the way here, and they still had to go back to get money. God knows if they would be the first person to obtain the Buddhist scriptures in the end.
When Xu Que saw this scene, he suddenly recalled the last difficulty of the journey to the west. These two old monks wanted a rebate, but at that time, Tang Xuanzang took a pile of blank scriptures.
However, you still want a rebate when you meet me? You are simply courting death!
"How dare you!" Xu Que immediately shouted and said righteously, "In such a sacred place like Buddha, you actually dare to ask me for a rebate in public. You are simply lawless!"
The two old monks were shocked by this roar, and they were almost scared to death. They looked at Xu Que with angry eyes.
"Amitabha, don't talk nonsense. This is the land of the real Buddha, and we are all enlightened monks. How can we ask for a rebate?" The tall old monk said righteously.
"Enlightened monks? Bah! "Xu Que sneered and stepped forward," With your rubbish Buddhist cultivation, you are not even as good as this poor monk! "
The tall old monk's dignity as a Buddhist disciple was ignited, and he roared, "We have served the Great Leiyin Temple for many years. How can our cultivation be inferior to a little monk like you!"
"Not convinced? If you have the ability, then let's compete in Buddhist principles! Let's see who can do it! "Xu Que did not give an inch," If I win, you will let us go in to get the Buddhist scriptures! "
"Fine! If you lose, you will go back now. The Buddhist scriptures here do not need a Buddhist worshiper like you! "
"Deal!"
The disciples panicked and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.
"Master, how about we forget about it." Kakarrot stepped forward and grabbed Xu Que, and with a bitter face, he said, "I am afraid you are not a match for me in Buddhist principles …"
Xu Que's eyes widened, "What do you mean? Master's Buddhist principles penetrate through heaven and earth, from ancient to modern times. How can I not win? "
"Uh …"
Kakarrot could not say anything. Master, when did you talk about Buddhist principles along the way?
We only saw you fighting and killing along the way, and you are even more brutal than us four demon disciples!
Xu Que shook off Kakarrot's hand and said in a clear voice, "Come, let's have a good exchange of Buddhist principles today!"
The tall old monk sneered and said in a deep voice, "May I ask fellow monk, what is Buddhist principles?"
Hua!
As soon as these words came out, the disciples revealed a bitter expression, and the old monks in front of the golden mirror also began to ponder.
What is a true Buddha? This is a test of one's understanding of Dharma.
Three thousand people have three thousand different views. Perhaps everyone's understanding of Dharma is different. What Xu Que needs to do is to find the core explanation of Dharma and to convince these two old monks.
The difficult part is how can he guarantee that his understanding will be able to convince the old monk!
But Xu Que did not think for too long.
He smiled disdainfully and said, "That's it? I didn't expect you two old bald donkeys to have such a low understanding of Buddhist principles despite your age! Listen carefully! "
"All Dharma is like a dream, an illusion, a bubble, and a shadow, like dew and lightning, and should be viewed as such!"
Boom!
As soon as these words came out, the two old monks were directly stunned!
