On one side, he had once ascended to the throne of the Human Emperor and ruled the Divine Prefecture. Later, he abdicated the throne and became a Buddha, founding a lineage of Buddhism that had been passed down through the ages and had countless believers. He had gone to the Dead Sea in the ancient era and returned to the Boundless World today.
On the other side, he had suddenly risen and founded the lineage of Xuanmen Tianzong. In just a few decades, he had completed a feat that others could not achieve in thousands of years. He had dominated the world and looked down on the world.
The master of Buddhism and the master of Xuanmen, two legendary figures, had officially begun a battle in the Spirit Sea today.
At this moment, Gautama Buddha's cultivation was not comparable to the future Glazed Buddha Lord!
He formed a seal with both hands, the two middle fingers bent like a sword, and the two index fingers reached out to the back of the two middle fingers.
This was the last move of the Vairocana Palm, the Vajra Realm Seal!
With one punch, the light of Buddha illuminated the world, but the light in front of Lin Feng seemed to dim as he was absorbed into the world created by the combination of Buddhism, Zen, and martial arts.
Gautama Buddha's fist was domineering. It controlled the present and dominated the Boundless World, but it was fierce and unparalleled. This was reflected in the powerful fist will, which was difficult to resist.
The fist will had completely condensed into a substance. Being in the fist will, one seemed to be completely isolated from the outside world and trapped in the Sea of Bitterness.
Lin Feng's heart moved slightly, but he felt like he had seen his own reality. He felt that this was a good opportunity for him to understand the Dao.
But he knew that the Dao here was the Dao of Buddhism. If he was enlightened, he would immediately become a Buddha and escape the Sea of Bitterness. If he was not enlightened, he would forever sink and never be free.
The Buddha said that he was the only one in the Heavens and Earth, but he was actually referring to the True Self. If he could distinguish the True Self and see through the false Emptiness, all evil would not be confused and he would reach the Nirvana Realm.
Seeing this, Lin Feng smiled. "Unfortunately, you have your Dao, and I have mine."
He also punched back. Suddenly, Yin and Yang were reversed, and the stars in the sky were shaken.
In the void, there seemed to be layers of universes existing. Every layer of the universe fell into turmoil. The stars moved, and wild storms were set off.
Such a violent force, concentrated together, confused the boundaries, as if it had transcended reality, and forcibly interfered with the fist intent created by the Buddha's Vajra Realm Free Seal that cut off all troubles.
The sea of bitterness formed by the fist intent, at this moment, constantly shook and tumbled, gradually dissipating.
A spot of light rose from the boundless sea of bitterness, and then led Lin Feng out of the seal, away from the fist will formed by the Vajra realm Freedom Seal.
Looking at Lin Feng, Buddha Shakyamuni spoke for the first time. His voice was so loud that it seemed to echo out into the chiliocosm, and yet it also seemed to whisper into the ears of everyone present. "To not be obsessed with the outside world is to distinguish one's true self."
With this simple sentence, rays of Buddhist light shot out from Lin Feng's body, illuminating his entire body like colored glass. He actually looked like he was about to transform into a Buddha.
Lin Feng shook his head indifferently. "There are thousands of great Daos in the world, but they all lead to the same destination. Fellow Daoist, you are mistaken!"
In an instant, the Buddhist light around him dimmed, as if it had been extinguished, and he returned to his original state.
Buddha Shakyamuni looked calm. When he heard this, he just smiled and did not explain. Once again, he pushed his palm toward Lin Feng.
This time, the palm print was not any of the ten moves of the Maha-Vairocana Palm that Lin Feng knew. It was not the Boundless Seal, the Infinite Seal, the Wisdom Fist Seal, the Dharma Boundary Seal, or the last move, the Vajra Realm Free Seal.
He just stretched out his palm, erecting it vertically, his palm facing Lin Feng, pushing out with a flat palm.
However, such a palm pushing toward Lin Feng put more pressure on Lin Feng than the Vajra Realm Free Seal just now.
As the palm fell, heaven and earth seemed to turn into a vacuum, and nothing existed.
And it seemed that he himself should not exist.
The world disappeared, the sea of bitterness disappeared, and the cause and effect of all things disappeared. Everything seemed to have disappeared. Looking back, he could not see the past, looking down, he could not see the suffering, and looking up, he could not see the shore. Everything was an illusion, and at this moment, he finally restored his true self.
It seemed that everything he was witnessing now was the truth, and the only falsehood in this world was himself.
Lin Feng only felt that he seemed to be turning into nothingness. It was not that he had disappeared and ceased to exist, but that he had never existed.
"Good! Good! Good! " Lin Feng laughed instead. "This is the real Buddha's Palm. If it wasn't so amazing, how could it be called the first martial arts magic in the history of the Divine Land?"
As he laughed, above Lin Feng's head, his Fruit of the Way appeared. It was mysterious and indescribable, as if the beginning and end of all things had returned to one.
Although the Fruit of the Way appeared, Lin Feng did not activate it. Instead, he struck back again.
But this time, it was not just the Changing Heaven and Earth Magic Power that transformed into martial arts fist will.
In the empty world, streams of light of the Great Dao suddenly appeared together, and then gathered towards Lin Feng. Countless streams of light rolled down, and it was shocking.
One after another, light spots appeared on Lin Feng's body, and they were so dense that it was hard to count.
These light spots turned into bright talisman characters, and they gathered together, falling into Lin Feng's consciousness.
In his consciousness, these characters constantly rearranged and combined, deducing and decomposing the mysteries of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
In the end, all the characters combined together, turning into a mysterious and unfathomable immortal chapter. It formed a Tai Chi diagram, and it kept spinning in the void of Lin Feng's consciousness, as if it had exhausted the mysteries of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
The fourth chapter of the Heavenly Virtue Scripture, Tai Chi Dao Scripture!
As Lin Feng punched out, light spots appeared one after another, intertwining and evolving into a mysterious fist will.
There seemed to be many light spots, but in the eyes of the Ancestral Buddha, it was instantly clear. "129,600, the number of one yuan …"
The thousands of Great Dao of Heaven and Earth seemed to be supporting Lin Feng's punch. Everywhere the punch passed, many things in the empty world reappeared.
The fist will of both sides clashed at this moment, neither giving way to the other. Together, they played out the top martial arts clash of the human cultivators of the Divine Land.
In the process of fighting with the Ancestral Buddha, who was at the Intermediate and Completion stage and at the Immortal realm, the Tai Chi Dao manual in Lin Feng's consciousness became more and more complete.
This also caused his punch to become more and more powerful. Under the support of the light of the Great Dao, astonishing power flowed out of his body, and he actually vaguely mixed up the boundaries between his physical body, Qi, and Primordial Spirit.
Although the Ancestral Buddha could not see the Tai Chi Dao manual in Lin Feng's consciousness, he could feel the changes in Lin Feng's aura.
Gautama Buddha did not speak. His other palm also pushed out towards Lin Feng.
But this time, it was no longer a mystique of the martial way. In the center of his palm, a swastika symbol spun continuously.
As the swastika symbol spun, it brought with it countless images that appeared chaotically. The number was so large that it could not be multiplied. As a result, the many images seemed extremely heavy together.
Lin Feng looked over and saw that within the layers of images, there were hundreds of lives, as if the lives of countless people had experienced.
From immemorial times, to the present, and then to the distant future.
Countless people's past, countless people's present, and countless people's future. The Great Heaven Primordial World's past, the Great Heaven Primordial World's present, and the Great Heaven Primordial World's future.
Every living being, in the course of their own lives, more or less, would experience all sorts of disturbing things, forming many karmic ties.
Lines of karmic ties densely covered the void, flashing with a crystalline luster. There was an uncountable number of them.
The karmic ties of all living beings, the past, the present, and the future, were all gathered here at this moment. With the Ancestral Buddha's palm, it pressed down towards Lin Feng.
That heavy feeling was enough to make anyone feel like they could not bear it.
For cultivators below the Immortal Realm to be entangled with such complicated and immeasurable karmic ties of all living beings, apart from a small minority, most would find it hard to bear. Some might even go insane.
Even the strongest powerhouses at the Immortal Realm like the Ancestral Buddha would find it hard to sort out the entanglement within.
The layers of karmic ties wrapped around Lin Feng's body. Instantly, he felt like he was trapped in the endless mortal world, unable to escape. His mystique, Dharmic powers, and spiritual consciousness were slowly being erased.
Lin Feng did not move for a moment. Instead, he carefully experienced the feeling.
To him, this kind of experience of being entangled in the mortal world was already extremely unfamiliar.
At this moment, he felt like he was experiencing the complicated lives of countless lives at the same time. He had walked through endless years, and he did not know where the end was.
Perhaps, it was more likely that there would never be an end. If there really was a day when it ended, perhaps he would follow all living beings into an unavoidable eternal slumber, and be destroyed along with this Great Thousand World.
At this moment, all of Lin Feng's mystique and Dharmic powers seemed to have dissipated. Only the taiji diagram in his sea of consciousness that was manifested by the taiji scripture continued to spin. Silently, the mysterious dao fruit above his head continued to float.
It was as if he had experienced the long lives of billions of lives, but it also seemed like only a short instant.
A faint smile suddenly appeared on Lin Feng's face. Without waiting for the Ancestral Buddha to make his next move, the aura of his Dharmic powers suddenly vibrated and changed again.
His spiritual consciousness and Dharmic powers that had been worn down by the karmic ties of all living beings instantly soared and returned to their peak.
The innumerable karmic ties that were entangling his body like a spider web disappeared at this moment.
Slowly, the dao fruit above Lin Feng's head descended and fused with Lin Feng's body, causing Lin Feng to seem like the origin of thousands of karmic ties, and also like the final node of all karmic ties.
At this moment, Lin Feng's body seemed to be plated with a layer of bright and dark light. He understood the principles of all living beings, and also seemed to be able to accommodate all existences.
Everything in the world could be found in him, and everything in the world could also be found in him.
Even more karmic ties descended, but they all disappeared without a trace on Lin Feng's body. It was as if they had fallen into water, but they did not cause any splash or sound. Not even a ripple bloomed.
Seeing this, Gautama Buddha, who was on the Sky-reaching Pagoda, let out a great sigh. "As expected."
Next to him, the future Glazed Buddha Lord did the same. "As expected."
As if confirming his guess, Gautama Buddha shook his head and retracted his palm. The countless karmic ties disappeared and returned to his body.
Gautama Buddha no longer activated the Three Lives Karma Curse. He did not stop there. Instead, he flipped his palm and enveloped Lin Feng!
