Talisman Emperor
Chapter 1772 – Secrets of Samsara
After almost five years, the door to the Arambha Temple was opened once again.
When he took another step, Chen Xi's emotions were completely different from the first time he had come here, and it carried a wisp of hope and anticipation.
The white spirit deer stood outside the entrance, and he spoke in a warm voice after noticing Chen Xi's arrival. “No need to worry. The teacher will meet you in person later. “
As he spoke, he suddenly glanced at Ye Yan. He didn't seem to be surprised by his appearance here, or perhaps he had already noticed his arrival from the very beginning.
He said in a warm voice, Little “Bao, take this young miss to see Huicong in the Meditation Hall.”
Little Bao was stunned, then he nodded.
At this moment, Ye Yan's expression was even more complicated, and he seemed to be afraid of meeting Huicong yet was extremely excited at the same time. He looked unintentionally and saw Chen Xi was looking at him with a smile on his face.
Suddenly, he somehow gathered the courage to nod before saying, Little “Bao, let's go.”
Little Bao immediately led the way and quickly disappeared along with Ye Yan.
Arambha Temple is as simple and elegant as ever. Everything within it seemed very ordinary, yet they carried a pure aura of the Dao that caused them to appear extraordinary due to it.
As said, other than Gautama Buddha, can one understand the world through a flower? The depth of this place was something that was absolutely impossible for ordinary cultivators to comprehend.
It was like one of those legends that constantly spread throughout the mortal world. Legend has it that a woodcutter had gone to the mountain to cut wood, but he met two old men who were playing Go by chance. A quick glance fascinated him by their play, and when he awoke from this, the axe in his hand was in a terrible condition. When he returns home, he notices his wife has left and the world has changed as years have passed.
This was a legend about an ordinary person who had stumbled and entered the world of immortals.
This actually represented that ordinary people were completely unable to sense the existence of the Dao's profoundness and aura, but they would be affected without them themselves noticing it.
The overall layout of Arambha Temple is roughly similar to this. However, it was made for cultivators. Once one did so arbitrarily, then the consequences would be worse than what an ordinary person in the legend faced.
“Chen Xi, come with me.” The white spirit deer turned around and began to lead the way.
Chen Xi followed behind him. They walked along the winding path for a long time before finally arriving at a building built of limestone, and the roof was covered with bright golden straw.
“Master, Chen Xi is here,” said the white spirit deer.
“Tell him to enter.” The voice of the Goddess sounded from within.
The white spirit deer nodded to Chen Xi and said, “Please enter.”
“Thank you.” Chen Xi cupped her fists, and then she took a deep breath before walking over.
…
The building was spacious and serene, and the air was filled with a divine aura that calmed the heart.
The Goddess sat cross-legged on the meditation cushion while her entire body was encompassed by strands of milky white light, causing others to be unable to see her appearance clearly.
However, while he was just sitting there casually, he still emitted a strand of incredible aura. It seemed like a divine mark that could not be erased for good, and it caused others to involuntarily arouse feelings of respect.
“Senior.” Chen Xi's expression became solemn as she bowed.
“Sit,” says Goddess casually. As he spoke, a meditation pillow and a table appeared in front of Chen Xi. In addition, a hot teapot and two cups of tea also appeared on the table.
The Goddess took out a pot and poured a cup of tea for Chen Xi and herself. The tea was clear, and it exuded a sweet fragrance.
“Please help yourself.” The Goddess pushed the cup to Chen Xi.
Chen Xi took it and took a sip, causing a strand of warmth to spread rapidly throughout her body, and it felt comfortable, deep, and refreshing.
Clearly, this tea was an incredible and precious treasure.
“Divine Black Lich Venom has been suppressed, and you can take the young miss later,” said Dewi. He did not do small things, and he spoke in a flat and calm tone. “However, if you want to eliminate it, then you have to solve it yourself. I can't help anymore. “
Even if he suspected that this would be the result, an indescribable wisp of happiness still could not help but break out of Chen Xi's heart.
He took a deep breath, and then he stood up, bowed, and said, “Thank you, Senior.”
“Do not mention it. I'm just repaying your senior brother's kindness from last year. ” The Goddess gestured for Chen Xi to sit down, and then she said, “Now that this matter is over, you can leave at any time. However, I've got a few things to ask you before you do. “
Chen Xi was stunned, and then she said, “Senior, feel free to be frank.”
“Two years ago, the marriage agreement that the little girl, Ye Yan, had brought you down. If I'm not mistaken, you might be using the power of Terminus, right? ” The voice of the Goddess was still flat, but when it went into Chen Xi's ears, it caused her heart to tremble violently. He truly never imagined that the Goddess really paid attention to all of this.
Does this not mean that he is paying attention to everything that has happened in these past five years? After a long moment of silence, Chen Xi nodded.
The Terminus Dao Insight came from the Netherworld Register, and Chen Xi had only used it a few times since he understood it. Normally, unless he had no other choice, he would never use it.
Although the Ancient Gods Domain could not compare to the three dimensions, Chen Xi did not dare to be careless. Many years ago, how incredible was the Third Netherworld Emperor? Yet didn't he still suffer the fate of being destroyed by the great figures of the world and perishing?
“Terminus ...” When he saw Chen Xi admit it, he looked speechless, and he finally let out a light sigh after a long time. “Those who obey heaven are born in response to luck, and those who defy heaven are born in response to calamity. Thas right. “
Although she was unable to find the meaning behind these words, Chen Xi's heart trembled as she recalled the scene from five years ago for no reason or reason.
He recalled the scene before the death of the Stellar Nightbird's Bandit boss, Ghosteye Vulture.
“You ... you ... you really are a .. Savior! No wonder, no wonder you fought for the skull of a Sacred Shaman with me …. Oh my God ... Damn it !! ”
The ghostly growl of Hering Veyeye before his death still echoed in Chen Xi's ears, causing ripples to appear in his originally calm mental state.
At that moment, Chen Xi had not even launched an attack when Heringeye Vulture's left eye suddenly burst into pieces. Moreover, it caused him to destroy himself by being burned to death by an invisible divine flame.
The scene was very strange, so Chen Xi could not forget it even until now.
Now, when he heard the Goddess' sigh, his heart actually started pounding for no reason.
Energy from Terminus …. A Savior …. Can they relate?
“Do you know why while the Domain of Ancient Gods is so vast, beautiful, and includes all things and Daos, it has no rebirth cycle?” Suddenly, the Goddess jolted Chen Xi from her deep contemplation with a question, and then she was stunned once again because of that. Right, why would the Ancient Gods Domain encompass a myriad of Daos yet only lack a rebirth cycle?
Could it be that it was because the Netherworld only existed in three dimensions, so that was the reason why hell and the rebirth cycle were there?
Chen Xi could not help but look at the Goddess.
However, he changed the subject and talked about something else. “The lack of a rebirth cycle for the living beings of the Ancient Gods Domain represents eternal life as long as they do not suffer calamity.
“Unfortunately, this is not true eternal life.”
When he spoke here, the voice of the Goddess was slightly low and heavy. “What is true eternal life?
“It remains eternal while facing myriad tribulations.
“It remains eternal as the world crumbles.
“It remains eternal while Grand Dao collapses.
“That's the real destination that cultivators are chasing!”
Chen Xi's emotions rose and fell like surging waves when she heard this, and she couldn't calm down.
He understands her. Eternal life does not represent true immortality. For example, all the gods in the Ancient Gods Domain had practically unlimited lifespans, but they would still suffer calamities, still be killed, and still perish!
On the other hand, he was talking about ‘ pioneers of eternal life’, and it is a form of true immortality and eternal life that cannot be reversed all the doom, misery, and slaughter!
“Unfortunately, many people in the world think that as long as the reincarnation cycle does not exist, then they can live forever and stay away from mortal considerations. Actually, it was just an excuse to deceive everyone. ” When he spoke here, he could not help but shake his head, and then he lifted his teacup, gulped, and did not speak any further.
Reasons to deceive everyone? Chen Xi was surprised. Whatdoes thatmean?
“Do you know what the core of Samsara is?” ask the Goddess.
Chen Xi was naturally aware of it. He had once comprehended the three highest types of Grand Daos of the Netherworld Register, and they were respectively the depths of Paramita, Oblivion, and Terminus.
Then, he finally reached the enlightenment that these three depths were not heaven-defying because the Terminus Dao Insight was taboo or too heaven-defying, and that was precisely because they were the core that built up the Samsara energy, and that was precisely because they were the core that built the Samsara energy, it is a cycle of reincarnation!
It was like the Taichi Grand Dao formed from the four supreme Grand Tao of light, darkness, Yin, and Yang. Samsara is formed from the highest depths of Paramita, Oblivion, and Terminus.
Chen Xi nodded.
He said, “You must clearly realize that the energy of Samsara can guide souls to rebirth, and that it can make souls fall into oblivion. Moreover, it can form the energy of the Six Paths that judge the sins and good of all living beings, and it can build a hell to judge good and evil. ”
He paused for a moment and continued. “The ultimate goal is none other than to allow good to come to those who do good, and punishment to those who commit crimes. So, the world can be cleansed, and justice will be served for all living beings. “
Chen Xi was a little surprised in her heart. Because he never expected that this Goddess would actually discuss Samsara with him.
He never imagined that he would have such an understanding of Samsara. Because while these few sentences that he spoke seemed shallow and direct, it was actually already clearly describing the core depths of Samsara.
“Good people live while watching and caring for others while evil lives only for themselves, and that is why good people have short lives while evil lives long. The Ancient God Domain seemed like the residence of all the gods that existed for eternity and the paradise that yearned for countless living beings. However, no one realized that this heavenly order had been firmly controlled in the hands of experts long ago. So, who would care about good and evil or right and wrong? ” He sighed with some emotion, and he seemed to remember things in the past.
Chen Xi was stunned, and she was a little confused as to what to say.
“Of course, all this is not important.” After a moment of silence, his voice recovered his dignified and indifferent tone. “Most importantly, as the number of gods in the Ancient Gods Domain increases, it will definitely bring boundless calamity to the world. In the end, all of this would still go down to those cultivators!
