His eyes were half open, like a goddess' buddha, and his handsome face revealed an aura that had experienced many vicissitudes of life. Even when he talked to Hong Yu, he was old, but he did not make anyone feel annoyed, just like an elder talking to their own child.
Ferocious waves of shock surged through Hong Yu's heart. This person was actually able to pry into his inner thoughts and seemed to be able to listen to the mumbles in anyone's heart. This was too terrifying.
Extremely terrifying thought!
A supernatural ability that was able to see through the hearts of people was similar to the legendary, supreme Buddhist technique, "His Heart's Comprehension".
What kind of cultivation base could do such a thing?
He couldn't imagine it at all.
"Greetings, Bodhisattva of Magical Arts!" Suppressing the discomfort and fear in his heart, Hong Yu quickly retreated like a veil of fog. He rearranged his appearance before cupping his hands together and bowing to the white-robed youth.
He could already tell that this white-robed youth was the mysterious Bodhisattva of Buddhism. He was a supreme divine ability user and was known as the Mystical Bodhisattva. He was extremely powerful.
When the ancient gods disappeared, the immortals disappeared, and the centurions perished during the "current era", another "Bodhisattva" appeared from Buddhism. This person belonged to the miracle of the era that had occurred in the last thousands of years.
Buddhism's Buddha was supreme. In ancient times, Buddha was an existence that was comparable to gods. Below the Buddha was the Bodhisattva. Such a character was akin to a saint. A miracle was born in this world, where a single person was able to rival a transcendent supreme divine ability cultivator, enough to shake the heavens.
Hong Yu even guessed that if it weren't for Emperor Hong Wu appearing out of nowhere, suppressing all the almighty powers in the sky, bringing down hundreds of clans and suppressing the entire sky to the point where the Celestial domain was suffocated, the Buddhism would have long ago been led by him to the East and spread the Dharma to establish the Eternal Sand Buddha Country.
They wanted to be like the barbarians and the prehistoric demons. However, the barbarians had slaughtered a large number of people in order to invade and enslave the common people. Buddhism, on the other hand, was a "faith invasion" or "culture invasion". It wanted the people of this world to believe in the "Buddha", to establish the unparalleled Buddhist nation without any warning, to rule the entire world, and to turn billions of citizens into their fanatical believers, offering countless incense sacrifices.
The influence of this method was even more profound than that of the man-eating barbarians. The barbarians had refined an evil pill, but it was only to take away the lives of the barbarians. However, the people of this world would one day heal their wounds and turn their blood hatred into strength.
However, when Hong Yu thought about how Fan Dantian had once said, "The common people are leeks, harvesting one stalk, and then increasing another", he couldn't help but shudder.
From this, it could be seen that it was not a blessing to let such a sect take the place of the imperial government and let the "divine authority" rule over the people. It was a huge disaster. There was no need to be too many people like Fan Dantian in Buddhism. As long as there were five or six of them, they would treat human lives as grass and treat poisons. This was simply unimaginable.
This was definitely not an alarmist. Think about it, the heretics he saw in Long County were slaughtering and plundering everywhere. There were ten chambers in the sky along the way, old people, children, corpses, and heads piled up to form the capital …
Although Hong Yu also knew that Buddhism was not a cult like the Void and Lifeless Daos, and that this buddhist Bodhisattva was not a great evil like the Vacuum Daoist or the Lifeless Old Mother, he still had to be on guard against "not my kind, its heart must be different"!
All of these thoughts flowed through Hong Yu's mind in a myriad of threads and thoughts. He wasn't sure if it was a blessing or a curse that he had come to see this magical Bodhisattva. Just how many thoughts and secrets had he seen in the depths of his heart?
Before he came, he was filled with confidence. He felt that with all the treasures on his body, he would not be able to use the Immortal's sword, the Forbidden Spell, the Small Worlds, or even the Immortal Execution Talisman.
However, now that he saw this person, he knew that this person was unfathomable and unattainable. Just like the Hongwu Emperor, a supreme elder like him knew that the person's will was unstoppable, and things like the Immortal Execution Talisman were completely useless to this person. If the person wanted to kill him, he would not even have the time to enter the small world.
To be able to kill with just a look, that was definitely not a lie! This Bodhisattva magus could probably kill him thousands of times with just a casual sigh.
"Where does the Boundless Mystery come from? Pangshan's head is covered by white clouds." [Zither Heart] (Pine Heart) This is the poem your father, Hong Po Ji, wrote all those years ago. "
"Amazing method" is a nickname given to me by the three of us when we were admiring the moon and drinking and composing poems together. Even I have forgotten what my name is.
When the white-robed youth heard Hong Yu's words, he became lost in thought, as if he was recalling a memory:
"I never expected that Hong Po Ji would become the number one emperor in history, establishing a great dynasty and dominating the world. I have also become a Bodhisattva, something that we never thought of in the past. As for your mother, her matter has exceeded my expectations, and even now, I still find it hard to believe …" Right now, I don't call myself a "wonderful method". The term "taboo" has already disappeared with the past. Now, I have chosen a mixed character for myself. It's called "Clay Buddha"! "
Hong Yu did not speak. He was carefully digesting the information revealed in the other party's words. Judging from the other party's words, he had already known his mother and Emperor Hongwu decades ago. Then what happened afterwards that caused all of this to change and change?
Also, this person had changed the name for him, Clay Buddha. This name was not simple either. It seemed to have some sort of charm to it, carrying along some sort of extraordinary aura.
The clay buddha crossed the river and was unable to save himself. Although his divine strength was powerful, it was still very difficult for him to defeat all the people in the world. One had to say, this name was full of buddhist charms, and it naturally revealed some of this person's ideas.
Hong Yu realized that the truth back then was very different from what he understood. There were quite a few ways in and out, and the grappling with it was not as simple as what he understood.
He subconsciously wanted to ask, but restrained himself and waited for the other party to continue speaking.
"Putting aside this, Hong Po Ji has become more and more unfathomable these past few years. He has defied hundreds of families, suppressed many evil gods outside, and even suppressed many in the Infernal Realm. However, his son didn't have many powerful characters. Hong Qi Tian, Hong Fu Tian, the so-called eighth duke, and even the so-called crown prince were all mediocre. If it weren't for the fact that their mother's family background was so deep, they would have long been lost to the masses. On the other hand, the Eighteen Heaven Symbols given by the empress were quite impressive. They wholeheartedly wanted to be official ministers and tightly hugged the Martial Emperor's leg. They were truly deep and terrifying, and were quite interesting. In addition, this year's top scorer, Dong Yong, is also a formidable character. He carries a huge amount of energy with him. "
Hong Yu was shocked upon hearing this. He had only met this Clay Buddha for a short moment, but he knew that this person regarded all the heroes of the realm as ordinary people. Even the Giants among them could not compare to many ancient families or thousand year old demons. To be able to be evaluated by him as' terrifyingly deep, somewhat interesting 'and' bearing an enormous amount of Qi ', he was definitely not someone to be trifled with.
"I wonder how this person would rate me?" He thought to himself.
As for you, you're quite a petty person." As for you, you're quite a petty person. The Clay Buddha seemed to have heard Hong Yu's thoughts, "You are like a little dragon snake that has just emerged from the heavens, but has yet to achieve its goal of changing into a dragon. What you do, in the end, is just a small fight, and nothing more. "If I meet a true expert, no amount of resources or tricks will be of any use.
Thank you for your guidance, Bodhisattva, but I have no other choice. After all, my foundation is shallow, and my influence is limited. Hong Yu himself also knew, and he knew that his foundation was too weak after all, and along the road to now, many things could be considered as luck, many things happening by chance. Even if he started from the beginning, he might not be able to do anything better: "When he reaches the Bodhisattva's level, he can naturally point the way and exorcise the world. However, your level is too far away from mine, and I dare not imagine that facing you, I am like a River Earl gazing at the sea, a well child gazing at the heavens, full of ignorance. "
"In the past, Hong Po Ji was also your age and had already become a member of the Three Thousand Mysterious Gate. He was one of the most outstanding disciples of the younger generation and his background was even weaker than yours." The Clay Buddha stared at Hong Yu with its eyes half-closed, and said, "Of course, you cannot be compared with him. This person is a strange talent that has never appeared since the ancient times. Even if we added all of the hundred saint positions together, it would still be difficult to compare to him. "
"Bodhisattva, my mother, you, and your majesty, how were the three of you back then? "Can you tell me more about it?" Hong Yu finally couldn't help but ask. What he cared the most about was this, otherwise he wouldn't have taken the risk of following Fan Yin to the overseas islands.
"Your mother, Yintian, was one of the two geniuses within Buddhism that were known as the only geniuses of all time. One man and one woman, like the Buddha, enjoyed the respect of tens of thousands of people and was tasked by some of the ancient buddhist characters to travel the entire continent to the East.
Along the way, we met Hong Po Ji from the Creation Formation of Mysterious Gate. We traveled together, slaying demons together, and killing devils together. We roamed free and unfettered together. At that time, we were all still young. The three of us had a long conversation on the bonfire and were drunk all night. It was the best time for us to get to know each other.
However, there are differences between him and us Buddhism. He looks down on us Buddhism and always thinks that the divine Buddha in the temple belongs to the world. At this point, his view is similar to yours. He feels that the sky is filled with Buddha as hypocrites who "do not look down on their hearts", and that it is better for the people to beg for their souls than for their own, looking down on them from the bottom of their hearts. Your mother and I would also mock him, saying that he was an outsider and an immortal disciple, but his attitude was as weak and sentimental as a mortal. Transforming into an outsider cultivation places the most importance on ethereal, otherworldly, merry and happy in this world. Love and hate are all illusory, fleeting and unworthy of mention, the one that is like him? "
The Clay Buddha spoke slowly and confidently. Both of his eyes were closed, as if he was reminiscing about a distant memory.
"Hong Po Ji is indeed a sentimental man. When we were travelling together in the world of mortals, he saw the sorrows of the people, the separation of wives, the destruction of families, the death of families, the loneliness of widows and widows. His sentimental feelings were even separated into groups, regardless of race. Even if he saw that there was a battle between demons, that one demon wolf was killed, and that the rest of the litter of little wolf pups were still waiting to be slaughtered, he would still feel very sad and bring them to his side to take care of. This was probably something that Yin Tian and I, who were born in Buddhism, couldn't understand. Although we have our differences, we can get along well together. Cultivation is training one's own path, and everyone has their own ideas. Although we cannot understand his path, we will not interfere.
At that time, the phrase that he often spoke was "when humans are born, their nature is good". In fact, he believed that not only humans, but all living beings with emotions were born to be kind. At that time, Yin Tian and I had laughed at him, saying that he was just talking nonsense. Wolves eat meat, falcons fight with rabbits, this was a cycle of heaven. The reason why humans were human beings was because they were full of desires.
But he didn't believe it. He said he wanted to change the world. He thought of it and continued to do it. His cultivation speed was unbelievably fast. He could learn any martial arts, break through any bottlenecks, and increase his cultivation like a rocket without any bottlenecks. At that time, we did not realize that he actually wanted to change the world. That thought was really too shocking and too distant … Until something happened! "
At this point, he paused, as if he had thought of something painful.
"What is it?"
Hong Yu didn't expect that the domineering and tyrannical Emperor Hong Wu, who always appeared cold and heartless in his eyes, a person who was independent, and made others unable to accept him, would actually be so sentimental in the past.
However, regardless of personal matters, from the perspective of his governance strategy, he was indeed a person who controlled the world and tried to bring all the people in the world to change things. He did not think that he was the emperor but he felt that he was superior and viewed the common people as ants.
