Jiang Lier was also silenced by Tang San's bold statement.
He had studied characters and also read some Buddhist scriptures at the Jin Guang Temple, knowing that the "past Buddha, present Buddha, and future Buddha" are the three generations of Buddha in Buddhism, holding an extremely revered position.
The Buddha worshipped at Jin Guang Temple is the present Buddha Sakyamuni.
Also well-known as the "Supreme Buddha" or "Tathagata."
Jiang Lier was able to see Tang San's portrait, and noticed that the other party wore a Bilu hat and a five-Buddha crown on his head, symbols of an accomplished monk.
The old abbot of Jin Guang Temple also dressed in this manner.
In other words, Tang San Zang, a master of meditation and enlightenment, did not show the slightest respect to the three Buddhas. I am about to learn the art of revenge and blood from such a senior in this group chat.
Sigh!
Jiang Lier couldn't help but shiver. Is this the right choice?
[Ding! "Muscle Tang San Zang" has sent a special red envelope!]
[Muscle Tang San Zang]: "@Jiang Liu'er, just think of it in your mind to claim this red envelope."
This, is it for me?
From childhood to the present, with the exception of the wet nurse who raised him and the Vimala elder who has always looked after him at Jin Guang Temple... there really hasn't been anyone else who has ever given Jiang Liu'er any gifts.
His heart was deeply moved.
He soon dismissed the idea that "Senior Tang San Zang may also not be a good person like Senior Huang Mei."
How could someone who cares for him and gives him things be a bad person?
That's a really good person!
It is he, Jiang Lier, who has judged the enlightened master's heart with his childish thoughts!
Jiang Lier, with an excited heart, silently recited the word "claim."
[Ding! Successful claim of the exclusive red envelope from "Muscle Tang San Zang"! Congratulations to "Jiang Liu'er" for gaining: One bud of Buddhist persecution! ]
A golden, radiant lotus seed appeared out of thin air.
Jiang Lier quickly reached out to receive it.
[Muscle Tang San Zang]: "This is the Buddhist persecution lotus seed, originally called 'Saint Buddha lotus seed', which blooms for three hundred years, bears fruit for three hundred years, and is harvested for three hundred years. During these nine hundred years, there must be no less than one hundred high monks who chant sutras day and night in order to gather nine hundred years of heavenly and earth essence."
[Muscle Tang San Zang]: "After I, the poor monk, refined it, the lotus seed has undergone great transformation and has been elevated to a higher level, evolving from 'Saint Buddha lotus seed' to 'Buddhist Torture lotus seed'."
[Muscle Tang San Zang]: "By consuming the lotus seed, you can cleanse the impure Buddhist aura on your body, and plant a bud of Buddhist lotus in your body. The lotus seed will transform your dantian, transform the lotus roots into meridians, and open enlightenment."
[Muscle Tang San Zang]: "This is the path of invincibility that the poor monk has chosen for you!"
After a thorough explanation, Jiang Liu'er roughly understood the use of this item.
Somewhat similar to the "magical pill" mentioned by storytellers.
As long as it has benefits after eating, that's all that matters!
Tang San Zang is a version of myself from another world, how could I harm myself? Moreover, as he shows such concern for me, he must be a good person!
Jiang Lier didn't doubt his intentions.
After thanking Tang San Zang profusely in the group, Jiang Lier immediately placed the lotus seed on his tongue, scrunched his little face, and swallowed it hard.
"It's so bitter!"
At this moment, he suddenly felt a burning pain in his abdomen that was difficult to bear. And this strange sensation only spread to his limbs and bones in an instant, causing his whole body's blood to flow rapidly, and his body temperature to rapidly rise. His heart was beating like a drum, "bang, bang" loudly.
Jiang Lier was instantly shocked.
He felt himself becoming incredibly hot, as if he were being steamed. His skin was even starting to emit black flames!
The terrifying high temperature caused Jiang Lier to feel an indescribable pain.
He wanted to open his mouth and scream, but his mouth couldn't even open.
Fortunately, he was in a relatively secluded corner of Jin Guang Temple.
Otherwise, he might be thought of as a monster!
[Jiang Lier]: "Senior, something bad happened! I'm on fire!"
[Jiang Lier]: "[Image] I'm on fire all over!"
[Jing Tan Messenger]: "Whoa, when Monkey King was placed in the Furnace of the Great Sage by Taiyang Laozun, it might have been like that! @Muscle Tang San Zang, Teacher, your lotus seed isn't right!"
[Sun Wukong]: "If you can't speak, just shut up."
[Huang Mei Elder]: "Zezh, Jin Chanzi, you're really ruthless towards your other self in that other world!"
[Huang Mei Elder]: "Or are you also coveting Tang San's flesh?"
[Huang Mei Elder]: "@Jiang Lier, if I were you... just spit out that broken lotus seed and study my Huang Mei Elder's published 'Big Mulitpotential Killability Sutra Treasury', a classic Buddhist scripture."
[Muscle Tang San Zang]: "It can't be burned to death. If you can't endure such pain, then how can you avenge your parents?"
Jiang Lier really wanted to scream in the group chat: "I'm so, so, so, so, owwwwwww!"
But Tang San Zang's words made him swallow his pain.
Yes...
Jiang Lier thought to himself, "Even if I can't bear the pain of being burned alive, how can I possibly take revenge and seek justice?"
Jiang Lier hugged his body tightly.
His thin frame trembled slightly in the flames.
It's worth noting that this black flame doesn't burn his hair, doesn't burn the clothes he's wearing, and not even a single weed near his feet has been affected.
Only his flesh can feel the scorching agony.
It's like being roasted over a fire.
Suddenly...
Layer upon layer of firelight climbs up like sprouting lotus seeds, and the ascending flame forms a "lotus stem." On top of the "lotus stem," another piece of "lotus leaf" is formed.
A black flame Buddha lotus is blooming, and the petals are visible to the naked eye as they wither away, leaving only a "flower receptacle" with just one lotus seed.
The lotus seed falls and dissolves into Jiang Lier's body, perfectly merging with him. The black flame on his body also gradually dissipates.
At this point...
A Buddhist Torture lotus has been planted in his body.
He has stepped onto the invincible path.
"Huff! Huff! Huff!" Jiang Lier was panting heavily, completely contrasting with the pain he experienced before. Now, his body felt incredibly comfortable, as if his whole body had undergone a transcendence.
Even more so!
The left foot's missing toe nail can even be seen growing out!
He feels like he can "see" a lotus seed suspended in his lower abdomen. The seed emits an odd force that nourishes his limbs and vital organs, making his delicate and weak hands and feet plump up a bit.
Indeed!
Tang San Zang Senior wouldn't harm himself!
To Jiang Lier's surprise, the shape of the lotus seed also changed. The surface of the seed developed many wrinkles. If one looked closely, they would see that these wrinkles seemed to converge into a fearsome ghost face.
At a glance...
Rather evil-looking.
[Jiang Lier]: "@Muscle Tang San Zang, Senior, the fire is out! However, that lotus seed seems to have appeared in my stomach. Moreover, it appears to have a ghost face on it!"
[Muscle Tang San Zang]: "Ghost face?"
[Jing Tan Messenger]: "Teacher, won't you know that this... let the little monk eat it?"
[Jiang Lier]: "Ah?"
[Muscle Tang San Zang]: "Don't worry. This Buddhist Torture lotus seed has been refined with the spirits of ninety-nine ghosts, forty-nine evil spirits, and thirty-six demons."
[Muscle Tang San Zang]: "There are some unexpected abnormal situations, but they are also normal conditions."
[Muscle Tang San Zang]: "It won't kill you."
[Jing Tan Messenger]: "(╯°Д°)╯"
