No cause and no effect, no cause and no effect. Wang Lin's World of Karma had produced such a scene.
This was the result of the deduction of the principles contained in the divine art of Daoism, and not the image of the transformation of illegal forces.
Zen Master Dade's attention had always been on Wang Lin's World of Karma.
If it was a real battle, he was no longer Wang Lin's opponent. However, his understanding of the Dao of Karma was so profound that Wang Lin could not hide it from him.
Moreover, there was no need for Wang Lin to deceive him, and there was no need for him to deliberately destroy and humiliate the foundation of Buddhism.
Zen Master Dade looked at Wang Lin. "What is going on? How did you do it? "
Wang Lin did not speak, but turned to look at Shi Tianhao. "Let Junior Brother explain. It is the result of his comprehension of our sect's Daoism, and my comprehension of the Dao of Karma."
Shi Tianhao answered, "Simply put, it is the correspondence between spirit and reality, the intersection of emotions and scenes in an instant, the coincidence between what one thinks and what happens."
Zen Master Dade's brows furrowed even tighter. Shi Tianhao looked at him and slowly said, "The world created by the emotions of the heart and the world that exists in the outside world overlapped at the same time."
"This overlap is very difficult to explain with karma. Because of the overlap of the inner and outer worlds, such a coincidence appeared?" Shi Tianhao shook his head. "Then it becomes karma for karma's sake. In reality, the combination of the inner and outer worlds is essentially one with those bizarre things. It is both cause and effect, no cause and no effect, and no cause and no effect."
After Wang Lin put away the World of Karma, he said, "If karma is the Dao of Fate, then junior calls this principle that is independent of karma the Dao of Defying Fate."
"Defying does not mean rebelling and overthrowing, but going against the original principle, meaning that cannot be explained by the original principle."
He looked at Zen Master Dade. "Junior has only just touched the surface of this truth. I still need to carefully study it."
Monk Dade seemed to have aged a lot in an instant, but the buddha light around his body gradually became dazzling and incomparably pure. It was precisely the marvel of the Infinite Light Rulai Sutra.
"Neither cause nor effect … Neither cause nor effect … Without cause, how can there be effect …" Zen Master Dade muttered to himself. He suddenly raised his head to look at Wang Lin. "Your supernatural power …"
Wang Lin seemed to understand what he meant and nodded calmly. "You're right. The foundation of my magical arts itself may have major errors, so it's very likely that I can't keep up with the principles of deduction and explanation, but …"
After a slight pause, Wang Lin continued softly, "But, no matter how hard junior tried, I couldn't cast the Three Lives Stone when explaining the path of defying fate in the Causality Realm."
The buddha light around Zen Master Dade suddenly trembled. Although Wang Lin didn't finish his words, he already understood what he meant.
The Dao of Karma's Dao of Fate and the Dao of Defying Fate were independent and even completely opposed to each other.
If Wang Lin could completely understand these two principles and finally make them converge into a unity of opposites, then he could naturally cast the Three Lives Stone and the World of Karma at the same time. It was even more likely that he could go one step further and combine the Dao of Fate and Dao of Defying Fate, evolving into a more profound magical art.
Before that, it was very difficult for the opposing sides to coexist.
But it was also because of this that, from a certain point of view, it was confirmed that there was indeed another kind of Great Dao that was opposed to the Dao of Karma.
The Dao of Fate was not completely the Dao of Karma, but the Dao of Fate was on the verge of collapse, causing the Dao of Karma to also be shaken.
The Buddhism's idea that Karma was the only truth, the supreme Great Dao, and could explain all the mysteries of the past, present, and future of the entire world of creation was really shaken at this moment.
Before today, although the Buddhism had never dominated the universe, and although the Taixu Temple's Great Dao of Taixu was known as the Dao scripture closest to the Heavenly Dao in the Divine Land, the Buddhist cultivators had always believed that all the principles in the universe could eventually be reduced to Karma.
The Taixu Temple's Great Dao of Taixu, Mount Shu Sword Sect's Connate Sword Aura, Heavenly Gate's Grand Heavenly Dao, Primordial Devil Scripture of the Primordial Devil Cult … Even the demon race's innate magical arts and many secret techniques could actually be explained by Karma. The Dao of Karma was the Heavenly Dao.
It was just that because people's cultivation was not enough, they could not truly understand everything. Even the Gautama Buddha could not completely transcend because he was in the mortal world and his magical arts were no match for Karma.
And if one could completely understand the Dao of Karma one day, it would be the day that one could transcend the boundless sea of suffering and the Nirvana Realm.
This was the common Zen heart of the Buddhist cultivators, but at this moment, Zen Master Dade was really confused.
The Buddhist Aura emitted from his body was getting brighter, but it was also getting more and more unstable.
If the people in front of him were not Xiao Yan, Wang Lin, and the others, the Buddhist Aura that Zen Master Dade unconsciously emitted was enough to purify and devour most of the cultivators below the Primordial Spirit Realm.
"When the Tempest Temple was destroyed, I could still calm my mind and subdue my inner demons. But now, my bier is covered in dust, and evil thoughts are growing …" After a long while, Zen Master Dade smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I have sinned, I have sinned!"
Xiao Yan, Zhu Yi, Wang Lin, and Shi Tianhao all looked solemn.
Zhu Yi said, "Master, I'm sorry, we brothers did not mean to offend or criticize the Buddhist Sect."
"It's just that there can be no construction without destruction. The Dao of the world will eventually be clear, and what should come will come. To truly transcend the Nirvana Realm, the only way is to identify the path. Otherwise, the path will become narrower and narrower, and we will sink deeper and deeper into the sea of suffering."
Zen Master Dade calmed himself down, looked at them and asked, "Have you reported your gains to the Sect Master? What did he say?"
The four brothers looked at each other, and Xiao Yan answered, "A long time ago, I reported it to my master. At that time, I only had some doubts and ideas, but now that I have some clues, I have not reported it to my master."
Zen Master Dade looked at Xiao Yan, "What did the Sect Master say at that time?"
"Master did not comment, he only asked us to explore it ourselves." After Xiao Yan finished, Zen Master Dade did not feel relaxed at all, and the bitter smile on his face became more serious, "Could it be that the Sect Master already knew?"
Xiao Yan and the other three were silent, and Zen Master Dade shook his head repeatedly, "Don't worry, my Zen heart will not be broken. Although it is difficult for me to accept your description of fate and defying fate, I am ashamed to say it."
The old monk smiled faintly, "A monk does not lie. During the battle of destroying Xuan Xuan, I saw Benefactor Wang's Karma Realm from afar. Although I did not understand it, I had a faint premonition in my heart. I didn't expect it to come true today."
He sighed, "It is because of that day that I have some preparations. After listening to what you said today, I can still control myself, or else the situation would be even worse, and I might directly go berserk, and my Zen heart might be completely broken."
Zen Master Dade walked out of the Depository of Scriptures shakily. The Buddhist almighty of the second level of the Golden Body realm was actually a little unsteady at this moment, and his figure was hunched.
Although his Zen heart was not completely broken, Zen Master Dade's situation was also very bad. The dharma body of the Infinite Light Rulai was faintly discernible, but it was covered with cracks, like a porcelain that had suffered a heavy blow, and could break into pieces at any time.
Xiao Yan went forward, but he did not say anything, and only played the role of an escort.
The obstacle in front of him depended on Zen Master Dade himself. If he could pass through it, he might be able to break through and then rebuild. If he couldn't, the dharma body of Rulai would be broken, and falling back to the first level of the Golden Body realm would already be the best outcome.
In terms of Dao, the Dao of Karma was not filled with fallacies. On the contrary, it was a very profound concept.
However, for the concept of the Buddhist cultivators, the impact today was too huge. The more profound the Dharma and the higher the cultivation, the easier it was for them to fall into the heart barrier and not be able to break free.
They would have strong self-doubt, which would lead to strong doubts about the Dao of Karma. From one point to the whole surface, from one point to the unreasonable point, they would then question whether there was a fallacy in the whole.
The wavering of the belief required the cultivator to rebuild it themselves. From the beginning, they had to interrogate the Dao heart and Zen heart bit by bit to eliminate doubts. After stabilizing their state of mind, they would face the initial heart barrier again and then dispel it.
If they couldn't dispel it, then it would be another reincarnation, and everything would start from the beginning again.
In this process, if something went wrong, then it would truly be beyond redemption, and many years of hard work would go down the drain.
The Dao of the world was generally like this. The more profound the Dao, the more serious the consequences of the broken Dao heart, because the heart barrier was very difficult to dispel.
The Taixu Temple's Supreme Wang Qing Dao was an exception. Cultivators who cultivated other Dao techniques could still turn to cultivate other Dao techniques if their Dao heart was broken, but the cultivators who cultivated the Supreme Wang Qing Dao with a broken Dao heart would cut off other paths to advance.
"Almsgiver Xiao, please go back. I'm fine. I want to go down the mountain and take a walk in the secular world to see all kinds of people." Zen Master Dade waved his hand. Xiao Yan shook his head and said, "Junior will accompany Master."
Zen Master Dade smiled and said, "There's no need for that. Almsgiver Xiao, you don't have to worry about me. I won't leave the northern foothills of Kunlun Mountain. The furthest I'll go is Sand Continent City."
Since he insisted, Xiao Yan could only take his leave. After saying goodbye to Xiao Yan, Zen Master Dade arrived at Sand Continent City and looked at the people coming and going on both sides of the street.
After a long time, he sighed and went to the top of a small mountain at the edge of the Kunlun Mountain area outside the city. Silently, he looked at all the things in the world in front of him.
However, his eyes, which had always been calm and full of wisdom, were filled with confusion.
Although Zen Master Dade looked like an old man, his eyes were black and bright. They were lustrous and didn't look old at all. However, at this moment, his eyes were as turbid as an old man in his twilight years.
"Fate … Defying fate … Neither cause nor effect … Heaven and Earth's creation, all things in the world, what principles do they follow? There are thousands of Great Daos, do they return to one? If this Great Dao isn't cause and effect, what is it? "The Buddhist light on Zen Master Dade's body surged and fluctuated violently.
The Buddhist light condensed into a huge dharmakaya of Buddha. It was golden in color and emitted red light. It sat on a lotus and a full moon. The throne below it was carried by eight peacocks. Its right hand held a lotus and its left hand held a bell. It was the image of Amitabha Buddha.
This buddha's body emitted a bright light that illuminated the world.
However, at this moment, the dharmakaya of Buddha that Zen Master Dade manifested was constantly twisting and fluctuating. It didn't have a trace of the true meaning of immortality. The surface of its body was densely packed with cracks like a spider web.
The void opened and an old monk appeared. When he saw Zen Master Dade, he couldn't help but turn pale with fright. "Senior Brother Dade, what happened to you?!"
