Mount Meru, this was a grand and majestic name, the highest immortal land of the buddhist path. There were too many legends related to it, leaving behind endless mysteries in the world.
This ancient celestial mountain was not only famous in the Big Dipper Star Field, but it also had countless legends in the other ancient star fields. It represented the foundation of Buddhism and was of great significance.
Now that Ye Fan had led his army here, he was truly facing Mount Meru. He was shocked to see its true appearance.
Mount Meru was too large, towering into the heavens, majestic and boundless, able to pierce through the heavens, able to fill up the oceans, spanning the past and present, everlasting.
Standing in front of it made one feel insignificant, like an ant looking up at the galaxy. It was out of proportion, and one could deeply feel one's own weakness.
"It is said that Mount Meru is 84,000 meters tall." Dongfang Ye said while holding a big stick. The barbarians felt like Bi An was facing a towering tree.
A mountain was about 13,000 meters above sea level. In this way, the altitude of Mount Meru was simply an astronomical figure. Of course, its height must have been exaggerated by others.
The magnificence of this mountain was evident. It could be said to be the most majestic ancient mountain in the Northern Dipper Star Region. There was no other ancient mountain that could compare to it. It was vast and boundless, majestic and vast.
Mount Meru was only the main mountain. There were several other mountains around it, all of them similarly magnificent. There was a silver waterfall cascading down, buddhist chants continuously sounding, making the central Mount Meru appear even more grand.
The foot of the mountain was surrounded by water. It didn't seem like much from afar, but when one got closer, it was shocking. This water body was vast, and it looked like a sea.
"This must be the Seven Treasure Pool," Li Heishui said.
According to the Buddhist scriptures, there was a Seven Treasure Pool in the Land of Pure Land. This pool was natural and not man-made, so it was called the Seven Treasure Pool. It was also known as the Eight Virtue Pool because it was filled with Eight Virtue Water.
The water was sparkling and translucent, also known as the Eight Flavours Water, or the Eight Stabilizing Water. There were eight types of water: clear, cool, sweet, soft, moist, peaceful, quenching hunger and thirst, and nourishing the roots.
The Eight Virtues Water was very precious, and all the pilgrims longed for it. Drinking it had all sorts of miraculous effects. It could rid one of impurities, purify one's body, purify one's soul, nourish one's six roots, and keep one's illness at bay.
To ascend to Mount Meru, one must first cross the sea, cross the Eight Merit Sea.
Longma called out, "Let him drink it all, let's see how he can show off his nobility and rarity."
At this point, it opened its mouth and prepared to swallow everything into its stomach. It also took out a magic tool to collect the water.
However, the Eight Virtues Sea emitted a boundless buddhist light and waves of deafening buddhist chants. It immediately blocked his spell and didn't absorb a single drop of water.
Everyone knew that Mount Meru was not easy to attack, but they did not expect that just the water at the foot of the mountain was so extraordinary, like an impregnable pass, lying in front of them.
The main mountain stood towering in the middle of the clear and transparent sea. It was towering and enormous, grand to the extreme. Indistinctly, one could see a few grand temples situated on the mountain.
As for the Great Thunderclap Monastery, it couldn't be seen. It was located at the top of the mountain, eighty-four thousand kilometers above the ground. Even with the Heavenly Eye, it couldn't be seen because it was blocked by the mountain.
"It's too vast, I can feel a vast ocean-like power flowing on the mountain. I think even without any defensive formations, I might not be able to penetrate the buddhist power." Yan Yixi's white clothes fluttered as he couldn't help but sigh.
The entire mountain was shining. Auspicious and pure psychokinesis lingered, and there was a large expanse of light rising. This was no longer an ordinary land, but an immortal's land.
Layer after layer of silver radiance rose, and there was even a faint golden radiance flowing. This was the purest power of faith. It supported the mountain, so dense that it couldn't be dispersed.
This kind of power was so vast that it made one's mind tremble. It couldn't be measured at all. The entire mountain had long been deified. Every blade of grass and every tree had a buddhist nature and was thoroughly nourished by the radiance.
This was the convergence of the psychokinesis of all the buddhists in the universe for tens of thousands of years. After the accumulation of endless years, only then did this inconceivable scene appear.
In the depths of the universe, many ancient lands of life had Amitabha's orthodoxy. Endless faith crossed the void, unaffected by distance, and in the end, all of it flowed towards Mount Meru.
The divine realm of the other side paled in comparison to Mount Meru. The difference was too great. This was the true divine sea formed from the power of faith!
At this moment, the layers of radiance were vast and mighty, filling the entire ancient mountain. It seemed dignified, sacred, and shocking.
Dang …
A large bell rang out, shaking the heavens. It came from an ancient temple on Mount Meru, like a scripture entering one's ears. It was deafening and made one alert.
"How arrogant. Is the monk of Mount Meru warning us?" Princess Divine Silkworm sneered. She seemed to have a deep prejudice against buddhism.
This couldn't be helped. The Victorious Fighting Buddha was her husband, and after entering buddhism, he never looked back. There were many different opinions in the outside world. The most ridiculous and terrifying one was that the Victorious Fighting Buddha might have lost himself and lost his true self.
"Amitabha, why did benefactors muster such a large force? Buddhist pure lands cannot endure this type of blade radiance and sword shadows." An old monk appeared, standing at the foot of Mount Meru, chanting buddhist names.
In response, Ye Fan directly took out a precious bow. This was an artifact refined on the human race's ancient road. He took out a holy bone arrow, nocked it on the bowstring, and pulled it back. It was like a full moon as he shot it out.
This was a terrifying beam of light that contained Ye Fan's divine power. Accompanied by lightning, thunder, and violent winds, it directly rushed towards the old monk at the foot of Mount Meru.
Rumble!
It was as if the heavens and earth were collapsing. A holy bone arrow directly tore apart heaven and earth, as if it could destroy everything in its way, shattering the void in front.
The old monk's expression changed. He flicked his sleeve, and the vast power of faith from Mount Meru turned into a waterfall, directly smashing into the holy bone arrow. With a pop, it exploded and turned into powder.
Everyone's expressions changed. How powerful was Ye Fan? The arrow he shot out was enough to threaten the initial stage Great Sage, but it was directly destroyed by the power of faith.
This place was too terrifying. The boundless power of faith was even more vast than the ocean, even more abundant than the starry sky. It was incomparable!
"Benefactor, what is the meaning of this? Using force in the pure land of buddhism and shooting this old monk with an arrow is a bit too much." The old monk said.
Ye Fan said coldly, "I was shooting at your falsehood. Buddhism talks about the true nature, but you clearly know why I came, yet you still talk about some knife light and sword shadow, asking me in return. I will help you cut away your distracting thoughts. "
"Amitabha." The old monk chanted, continuously admitting his sins.
"Bald thief, stop chanting. Hand over my nephew, or else I will sweep through your Mount Meru." Dongfang Ye shouted. His upper body was bare, and his bronze body was like coiling dragons, flickering with luster. He raised the wolf tooth club.
"This poor monk knows his mistake. I have committed the sin of anger, so I will release myself." The old monk said.
With a soft pop, his body shattered and turned into specks of mist, ultimately merging into Mount Meru.
Everyone was startled, and then they sucked in a breath of cold air. This was only an illusion, a shadow born from the faith power of Mount Meru. It wasn't some real ancient buddha.
This Mount Meru was formed from the convergence of the faith power of countless buddhists. It was truly unfathomable.
"Dang … …" The bell rang slowly, and the sound waves traveled tens of thousands of miles, cleansing everyone's souls.
At the waist of Mount Meru, the mist dissipated, revealing an ancient temple. This was obviously not the Great Thunderclap Temple, but a very important one of the buddhist sects.
A middle-aged monk stood in front of the temple. He put his palms together and chanted, "Benefactors, please return. There are only monks and buddhists here, not the person you are looking for."
"Monks don't lie. You are a buddhist disciple, yet you speak irresponsibly. Huahua is on this mountain, why do you say she isn't here?" Ye Tong shouted.
He was heroic, and a blazing sun bloomed in his body. Every inch of his flesh and blood was shining. He questioned loudly, and his aura was astonishing. It was as if he was a deity descending to the mortal world.
"The false reputation of the past has become smoke. There is only Buddha and reason here." The middle-aged monk said.
Everyone could already see that this was a real person with flesh and blood. He wasn't a pure manifestation of faith power.
"Stop talking nonsense. Hand over Huahua and convert people into slaves. Do you think there is only Buddha and reason here?" Li Tian sneered.
"There is no Huahua in the pure land of buddhism. Benefactor, please return." The middle-aged monk's expression was calm.
"If that's the case, we will break through the mountain gate and search for her ourselves!" Longma shouted.
"Amitabha, this is a place for monks to cultivate. You have all cultivated rudely, please leave." The monk in the middle put his palms together and said.
Ye Fan opened his mouth and said, "Buddha said that all living things are equal. Everyone has the nature of Buddha and can become a buddha. What is the difference between us and you? We can ascend Mount Meru, so why aren't you moving out of the way? "
The middle-aged monk's expression froze, and he said, "You are all demons who came with murderous intent. You have lost your true nature, so how can we let you in?"
"What a joke. Who is the demon here? You suppressed my junior brother and turned him into a slave. We came to save him, but you labeled us as demons. I think you are the one who has gone mad! "Ye Tong scolded.
At this moment, a young monk walked down from Mount Meru. He wore a moon-white monk robe and looked otherworldly. He said, "Benefactor, you are wrong. Buddha delivers all sentient beings and pays particular attention to benevolence. Today, the one who is fated to enter Buddhism is his good fortune. How can it be called suppression?"
"Buddha enlightens the great suffering of the world and dispels all misfortune. However, what you enlighten is humans and suppress them into slaves. The difference between the two realms is too great. Greed, anger, and arrogance are all present! "
Amitabha Buddha established a sect, establishing a buddhist sect. Believers were everywhere, gathering faith power. This was a type of magnanimity, but it wasn't to suppress one's will, but rather to mutually give and take.
He was enlightening a great world, delivering all living things from suffering, obtaining faith power. However, he also made his believers full of vigor, their bodies light and healthy, mutually beneficial.
Now, this type of enlightenment aimed at Huahua went against the scriptures, long becoming unrecognizable. It was completely crude suppression, cleansing the primordial spirit, making her lose her sense of self.
"If it was to enlighten and stop fighting, then there is no harm. However, Huahua doesn't have any evil, so what does it have to do with you all? However, she was crudely suppressed. Today, there must be an explanation, or else this Mount Meru will be overturned. "Heaven Village's people shouted, their voices like lions roaring.
"Benefactors, your obsessions are too deep, distorting the buddha's will. Why bother? This place is empty and lonely, there is no need to be distracted." The young monk said.
It was clear that his status wasn't ordinary, and his magical force was great. He carried a type of calmness and confidence.
Qiang!
Suddenly, Ye Fan who had remained silent this entire time moved. He pulled out a dark red immortal sword, directly hacking over. Immortal light shot out several dozen li. With a pu chi sound, it struck this person, removing his head.
Mount Meru was extremely powerful, endless faith power flowing. However, against this emperor artifact's sudden attack, it still couldn't completely defend against it.
"This place is empty and lonely, why bother coming?" Ye Fan said calmly.
"Pu!"
The young monk's head turned into a bloody paste, his body breaking apart, completely dying, full of unwillingness.
"Everything that needs to be said has already been said. You all clearly covet my disciple's buddhist divine ability, yet continuously speak nonsense. I might as well help you become nothing." Ye Fan's words paused, and then he continued, "I also have a method to purify the great suffering of the world. I wish to establish a sect in Western Desert, deliver all living things from suffering, starting from Mount Meru."
