Gu Qingfeng tried to probe again, but he couldn't find anything. He couldn't sense anything either.
He probed again, and tried again …
He didn't know how many times he repeated this, but he still couldn't sense anything.
Then.
He sat down cross-legged, put his palms together, took a deep breath, and gradually closed his eyes.
As his eyes closed, his breathing stopped, his heartbeat stopped, and all his pores were sealed. His aura gradually disappeared, and his vitality weakened bit by bit until it completely disappeared.
At this moment, Gu Qingfeng seemed to be dead. There was no vitality in his body.
Was he dead?
He was dead.
At least now, Gu Qingfeng's real body was indeed completely dead. Even his soul was disintegrating bit by bit, merging with nature, merging with heaven and earth, turning into dust, causing his mind to enter a state of absolute selflessness.
This was nirvana.
This was a supreme state of Buddhism that Gu Qingfeng had comprehended.
Giving up one's body and soul, transcending life and death, causing one's mind to be completely liberated, thus reaching a state of selflessness. In this way, one could jump out of the Great Dao, jump out of heaven and earth, and observe the Great Dao, heaven and earth, and all living things.
Just as Gu Qingfeng was about to enter the state of selflessness, a voice suddenly sounded.
"Amitabha!"
The voice was long and extremely depressed. It came from the Nirvana Bone Jade, the old monk who lived inside.
"Practitioner Ancient … you clearly know that this is a carefully planned trap. Why are you still so stubborn!"
The old monk's voice sounded, but Gu Qingfeng didn't reply.
Indeed.
Of course, he knew that this was a trap.
A mysterious Taixuan Tablet, Jun Xuanji, and the Heart of the Flaming Sun.
With the three linked together, even if one used their toes to think, one would know that this was a carefully planned trap.
Ever since he knew that the Heart of the Flaming Sun had been taken away, Gu Qingfeng had already guessed that someone was waiting for him to jump in.
However, he had already jumped into Yun Nishang's trap, so he didn't mind jumping into another one.
He just didn't know if this trap had anything to do with Jun Xuanji.
Was it a trap set by her, or was it related to her?
"Practitioner Ancient … you haven't answered my question. Why are you still so stubborn?"
"The Heart of the Scorching Sun is inside. Although I can't sense it, I'm sure it's inside." Gu Qingfeng calmly replied, "Old monk, if you're trying to persuade me to give up on karma, then forget it. Many people have already tried to persuade me to give up, and I've heard enough … If I wanted to give up, I would have done so without your persuasion from the start …"
"Ancient Hermit, your karma has always been a path of no return. Now, there are people who have set up all sorts of calamities on this path of no return. Why are you so obstinate …"
Gu Qingfeng suddenly burst into laughter. The old monk asked, "Why are you laughing?"
"Nothing, I just think it's a bit funny. This Taixuan Tablet is like a great thing from your Buddhist school. Do you know what it is?"
"I don't know!"
"Hahaha!" Gu Qingfeng laughed again and said, "Whether you know it or not, you cannot deny that the Taixuan Tablet belongs to the Buddhists. I may not know whether this plot has anything to do with Jun Xuanji, but one thing I am certain of is that it has something to do with the Buddhists."
The old monk was silent.
"Now, the Buddhists have set up a trap for me to jump in. As a Buddhist, you have tried to persuade me again and again. Don't you think it's funny?"
"Ancient Hermit, I advise you to think twice before you act. The Buddhists have always been merciful … Moreover …"
Before the old monk finished speaking, Gu Qingfeng was no longer interested in listening. "Come on, old monk, don't talk to me about Buddhism. You know, I don't believe in heaven and earth, I don't believe in gods and Buddhas. I only believe in myself!"
"Amitabha …"
Gu Qingfeng didn't pay any more attention to him. He had given up his life and transcended life and death. After entering the state of selflessness, he gradually sensed the chanting of scriptures. It was very faint, but it was there. As he continued to sense, the chanting became clearer and clearer. The chanting also became louder and louder. It was as if millions of ancient Buddhas were chanting scriptures.
After an unknown period of time, Gu Qingfeng felt a faint Light of Buddha. As he continued to sense, the Light of Buddha became brighter and brighter.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.
"Don't —"
It was her.
It was Jun Xuanji's voice.
"Don't come in … Don't come in, okay? … "
Jun Xuanji's voice was very weak, and as the chanting became louder and louder, Jun Xuanji's voice also became weaker and weaker, as if she was enduring great pain.
"Go, go as far as you can. Don't search for karma … Don't search for … karma …"
"This seems like a trap … A trap prepared for you … I don't know who it is … But I can feel that this is a trap for you …"
"I forgot, I forgot everything. I'm lost, I'm completely lost … But please believe me … Believe me, okay? Don't … Don't come in … "
The chanting became louder and louder, and Jun Xuanji's voice also became weaker.
"Don't be fooled! This is a trap … I didn't deceive you, and I won't deceive you. Not in the past, not in the future … I've never deceived you … Believe me … okay? "
Believe?
Gu Qingfeng didn't know if he should believe Jun Xuanji. He really didn't dare to believe her anymore.
"Give up karma … You should give up …"
"There are people … who wish for you to seek out karma … There are many, many, many …"
"There are some people who don't want you to search … and there are … and there are many … many …"
"But … but … they can't stop you … they … can only … restrain you … restrain you … restrain you … restrain you … restrain you … Buddha … Buddha is possible! It could be … it could be one of them … "
"Ahhh!"
Jun Xuanji's pained voice sounded and Gu Qingfeng's heart was in a mess!
"Release! Abandon! Because! Fruit! "
"Ah — no! Don't let him in … Go to hell! Go to hell! "
Boom!
The vast Buddhist aura trembled for a while, faintly flickering with a blood-red glimmer. The sound of chanting also became chaotic.
After an unknown period of time, the blood-red color gradually disappeared. The vast Buddhist aura returned to normal and became even more powerful. The sound of chanting was no longer chaotic and became even louder.
"Jun Xuanji?"
Gu Qingfeng called out to Jun Xuanji when he still hadn't seen her.
No one responded.
"Jun Xuanji?"
He called out again, but there was still no response.
Gu Qingfeng continued to sense the vast Buddhist light and the chanting of sutras in the sky.
Soon!
It was getting clearer and clearer. He could feel it.
In an instant, the voice of the old monk living in the Nirvana Bone Jade sounded again. "Layman Gu, I advise you to think twice before you act!"
Gu Qingfeng didn't respond and continued to sense!
"Layman Gu, are you seeking karma or are you seeking Jun Xuanji?"
For karma?
For Jun Xuanji?
He didn't know!
