The abbot, having heard that Qin Sang had traveled from afar to discuss Buddhist principles with him, ...
The ultimate truth of the world, Buddhist teachings are shared.
But Buddhist debates have their own set of rules.
After entering Ximo, Qin Sang had learned about the principles of Buddhism and could manage to deal with it. He disguised himself as a lay believer, not a wandering monk, and fabricated this explanation precisely because of this reason.
When the abbot, Seng Yan, heard this, he understood that Qin Sang was not a genuine Buddhist who had truly taken refuge in Buddhism and would not have high expectations for him.
“Lately, I’ve heard of a layman who has gone to the瀚海to pay respects to Buddha. He is very respectful in his behavior. It seems he must be Master Mingyue,” Monk Yan countered, “Master Mingyue, since you have repented and intend to eliminate your karmic obstacles, why not choose a temple and take refuge in my Buddha”
“The humble student fears that worldly affairs are not yet finished, and that they may clash with the pure and tranquil place.”
Qin Sang replied respectfully.
Upon hearing this, Monk Yan slightly shook his head, seemingly seeing through Qin Sang's thoughts.
This person's claim of practicing Buddhism to attain enlightenment is likely false. The real reason they are in the Buddhist sect is that their spiritual practice has hit a bottleneck. They have been struggling with their cultivation and hope to find a breakthrough opportunity within Buddhism.
The Land of Shahai Buddha, where countless Buddhist disciples gather.
Such cases are common.
>
Some even go so far as to shave their heads and become monks, completely changing their lives and taking up Buddhist practices. However, in truth, they have no respect for the Buddha whatsoever.
>
However, even among those truly accomplished Buddhist masters, how many genuinely believe in the Buddha Otherwise, why would even a self-proclaimed "Bodhisattva" be unable to refute their arguments
If many Buddhist practices and supernatural powers could not be found corroborated in Buddhist scriptures, and even had the opportunity to be further refined, I'm afraid that people would not even open the Buddhist scriptures.
Master Sengyan desired to reform the Buddhist sect, but he knew his own limitations and felt inadequate. He sighed inwardly and did not expose Qin Sang's deception. He asked, "Having traveled through three thousand Buddha realms, what does Master Mingyue think of the Moon Goddess"
As he spoke, Monk Yan subconsciously glanced at Qin Sang.
One bright moon, one moonlight, what a coincidence.
"This humble student dares not speak rashly, but understands one principle. No matter the origins of Moonlit Bodhisattva, if they understand Buddhist principles and have attained Buddha-nature, then they are a most holy and revered master. This humble student's heart yearns for them."
Qin Sang cleverly replied.
Seng Yan was dumbfounded, standing there motionless for a long while before he seemed to wake from a dream. He bowed deeply to Qin Sang, "Thank you, Master Mingyue, for pointing this out to me. It was this poor monk who misjudged the situation!"
Qin Sang remained silent, uninterested in the monk's thoughts. He only wanted to steer the conversation towards the Hidden Zen Temple as quickly as possible.
With this in hand, Seng Yan became even more enthusiastic about Qin Sang, claiming that Qin Sang possessed a Buddha nature. "Master Mingyue, if you are unwilling to become a nun, perhaps you could stay in the temple as a lay practitioner for a few days. This humble monk hopes to have a long talk with Master."
Upon hearing this, Qin Sang's heart skipped a beat. After feigning hesitation, he nodded in agreement.
After that, Qin Sang remained as she always was. In the mornings, she would go out and visit various temples, burning incense and praying diligently before returning to Bei Shan Temple in the evenings.
Whenever the lamps were lit, Abbot Seng Yen would come and discuss scriptures with him.
Seng Yan is a true believer, a rare sight among the Buddhist monks Qin Sang has encountered recently.
At first, Qin Sang was only doing it to appease Seng Yan and waiting for the right opportunity to probe into the news of Yin Chan Temple.
After a few days, Qin Sang became increasingly interested and even began to carefully study Buddhist scriptures.
He could achieve today's progress in his spiritual journey, with a firm will, it was impossible for him to truly convert to Buddhism. The reason is that he found that studying Buddhist scriptures seemed to be beneficial to the .
Before, he had already cultivated the first four seals of "Seven Masters and Buddha's Seals" to great success. Now, looking back, he clearly sees that there are still many subtle points in the first four seals that he had overlooked.
The Seven Masters Buddha Print is not simply a matter of martial arts prowess. It embodies Buddhist principles. The first four prints in its 'refinement' process correspond to each other, and the order in which they are arranged also holds hidden meaning.
For this, Qin Sang borrowed the precious Buddhist scriptures from Beishan Temple, which were treasured by Abbot Seng Yan, and almost read through them all.
Of course he didn't forget the true purpose of this trip.
After patient paving, it naturally leads to the Hidden Zen Temple.
"Today, while offering incense to Buddha, I overheard a monk telling a secret," Qin Sang showed a curious expression, "Many years ago, the vast ocean was not bathed in Buddha's light. A high-ranking monk traveled here alone and built the first Buddhist temple, spreading Buddhism and saving all beings. I wonder which sacred temple it was"
Seng Yan smiled upon hearing this, “The lay monk Ming Yue is right. The holy temple he speaks of is Yinzhan Temple, and the venerable master is Venerable Hongyi. Yinzhan Temple is today's Zhu Lan Temple.”
Qin Sang was startled, "Why change your name"
Please note that the original text was empty because there was nothing between the > tags.
Venerable Hongyi was the great master who left behind Buddha's bone relics.
This venerated one is not a venerated one from the Canglang Sea Merchant Alliance, but a Buddhist term for Yuan Ying cultivators.
Zhu Lan Temple is now the head of the Seven Stars of the Vast Sea, originally inheriting the Taoist tradition of Yinzhan Temple.
It was so simple; he hadn't heard about it before.
"It's not about changing the name."
The monk shook his head. "Master Hongyi's original Dharma name was Dao Yu. He began practicing at Zhu Lan Temple from a young age, achieving great skill. He travelled widely and saw the rampant demons in the vast sea, so he made a grand vow to help all people in the vast sea escape suffering. The demons were powerful, and Master Hongyi feared that revealing his identity would bring disaster to his lineage. So he changed his name and built Yin Chan Temple. Later, when the situation improved, Zhu Lan Temple was under pressure from enemies, so he moved the monks to the vast sea."
Mentioning Master Hongyi, the monk did not hide his admiration. "Master Hongyi once said that merit lies in the heart and action, he did not seek fame. In his later years, he restored his original Dharma name, becoming a lamp-holding ancient Buddha until his death. Until the forces hostile to Zhu Lan Temple weakened, the name 'Zhu Lan Temple' was restored. Afterwards, they built a stupa for Master Hongyi in the temple. Zhu Lan Temple holds a Dharma assembly once every ten years, initially to commemorate Master Hongyi, but now it has become a place where disciples from various temples fight each other fiercely."
Qin Sang suddenly understood, and secretly thought to himself, "So that's how it is."
When Xiao Xiangzi first discovered the Buddha's bone relics, Zhulan Temple was still called Yin Chan Temple.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
Master Sengyan was slightly mistaken. Venerable Hongyi did not pass away in a normal way.
Xiao Xiangzi analyzes that Master Hong Yi most likely encountered an accident while breaking through the late Nascent Soul bottleneck, leading to his death and disappearance, leaving behind Buddha bones and relics.
According to common sense, even if Master Hongyi left behind special relics after his own failed breakthrough, it would be impossible for them to help later generations break through the same realm.
>
Xiao Xiangzi, however, discovered something unusual in the Buddha's bone relic. He suspected that when Venerable Hongyi attained enlightenment, he had used some kind of Buddhist treasure. When he passed away, the relic and the treasure unexpectedly fused, forming a unique Buddha's bone relic.
This relic is irreplaceable.
Zhu Lan Temple was built by Master Hongyi.
Are Buddha's relics housed within stupas
Qin Sang was delighted, thinking that he had finally found a clue. He continued to inquire and learned that the next Dharma Assembly would be held in two years. On the day of the assembly, disciples from all temples could enter Zhulan Temple, perhaps having a chance to approach the Buddha Tower, which would be the best time to observe.
He and Lúlí traveled thousands of miles, they didn't mind waiting two more years.
Upon hearing the news, Qin Sang did not cease his Buddhist practice. He steadily moved from one oasis to another, his demeanor still respectful and reverent.
One year later.
Qin Sang finally arrived at the largest oasis where Zhulan Temple was located.
The Julan Temple is built by the lake and in the mountains.
Temples stretch endlessly, serene and solemn.
As expected, Zhulan Temple is not as relaxed as Beishan Temple. While outside monks are allowed to worship and stay overnight, they are only permitted to be in the front area of the temple. The back mountain is off-limits.
The pagoda is built on the back mountain.
According to Qin Sang's inquiries, there are three venerables in the Zhulan Temple. Among them, Venerable Chengyuan is at the mid-stage of Nascent Soul. This venerable has been meditating for many years and has not left Zhulan Temple for many years. Whether his cultivation has improved further remains unknown.
At the Nascent Soul Mid-Stage, two Nascent Soul Early-Stage cultivators, Qin Sang believed that he and Liuli could handle it.

The most troublesome thing is the spirit array protecting Zhulan Temple.
When Qin Sang entered the Zhulan Temple to pay respects, the spirit array operated as usual. Even without activating all its power, he could sense that the spirit array was extraordinary.
The formations of the Buddhist sect and those he learned at Yuanshen Gate differed greatly, especially in their defensive capabilities.
The Forbidden Buddha Pagoda is located at the core of the Spirit Formation.
To infiltrate a forbidden zone, obtain Buddha's bone relic, and then escape unharmed while under attack from three venerables requires meticulous planning.
If you can't evacuate in time, the next thing you'll face is an attack from all sides by masters of various temples!
After briefly observing the arrangements at Zhu Lan Temple, Qin Sang returned to Bei Shan Temple. While waiting for the opportune moment, he diligently studied Buddhist scriptures, showing notable progress in "The Seven Masters of Buddha Yin".
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He didn't agree with Seng Yan's ideology, but he held respect for everyone who persisted in their beliefs, even if Seng Yan's cultivation was far inferior to his.
Sometimes, without revealing oneself, one might subtly hint at a few things. The resident abbot, Master Sengyan, couldn't feel anything for a while. As his cultivation deepened, he would gradually discover the profound meaning behind it.

The dharma assembly arrived as scheduled.
The Zhu Lan Temple has opened its doors wide, hosting a Dharma gathering on the back mountain. This is a good opportunity to come into contact with Buddhist pagodas.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The head monk, Seng Yan, disliked this kind of gathering and ordered a junior monk to lead the temple's true disciples to attend the meeting at Zhu Lan Temple. Qin Sang managed to secure a spot on the trip.
The procedure of a Buddhist ritual is quite intricate.
It is said that in the past, there were two equally important events in the Dharma Court: the debate of scriptures and the duel of magic. Each temple from the vast ocean would present treasures as rewards to the winning disciples, as an incentive.
Later, the focus shifted to dueling. Debate became less important and the process was seen as tedious and boring. Some even suggested banning it altogether.
Qin Sang actually understood these Buddhist disciples.
Today, achieving divine ascension is as difficult as reaching the heavens. To stand still is to die.

How many people dare to risk delaying their practice, getting sidetracked, and immersing themselves completely in the study of ethereal and nebulous Buddhist principles
As described in Buddhist scriptures, concepts such as cause and effect retribution, the six realms of reincarnation, and Pure Land rebirth are widely believed by lay people. However, practitioners often harbor doubts about them.
Ascending to immortality, at least according to legend, these tales exist only within the thin pages of Buddhist scriptures. I have never heard of the Buddha demonstrating his divine power.
Those who attain sudden enlightenment from Buddhist scriptures and make great strides in their cultivation are rare, occurring only once every thousand years.
To be frank, the cultivation level of contemporary cultivators is too low. The techniques and supernatural powers they can access do not even touch upon the profound principles of scriptures and doctrines.
Qin Sang, this half-baked practitioner, had studied Buddhist scriptures for a few years, which was enough to contemplate the first four seals of the "Seven Masters Buddha Seal."
Of course, the last three seals he cannot cultivate for now, let's talk about them separately.
Now, the scandal caused by the Moon Goddess is escalating. This person is exceptionally eloquent and has refuted countless so-called eminent monks. If this person's title of "Buddha" cannot be revoked, Buddhism will forever face humiliation.
This time, the dharma assembly is different from previous ones, with unprecedented emphasis placed on the debate.
The dharma assembly was proceeding with great fervor.
Qin Sang found an opportunity and quietly slipped out of the venue. He easily found the location of the pagoda.
At the back of Zhulan Temple, there are many pagodas standing like forests. Inside them are enshrined the remains of eminent monks from all generations.
"Amitabha Buddha."
Qin Sang just arrived near the Talin Tower, and a monk suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking his path.
The look on the monk's face clearly showed that he would not allow them to pass.
"This master is polite," Qin Sang said calmly, returning the gesture. "I have heard of Master Hongyi's deeds of propagating Buddhism and am deeply respectful. I hear that there is a stupa built for him in Ta Lin. I would like to burn incense and pay my respects at its base. Would this master be kind enough to allow it"
Qin Sang said as she observed her surroundings.
Although the Taling is a sacred place within the temple, the guarding mages are only at the initial stage of the Golden Core. This is because this place differs from the true treasure vault; it serves more as a memorial.
However, this does not mean it will be easy.
>
When the meeting convened, the protective array of the temple reached its full power, affording extensive protection to the pagoda.
Standing outside, one can see the golden light of the Taling Tower shining brightly. The top of the pagoda is glowing with Buddha's light, glittering and resplendent.
Seeing Qin Sang's respectful demeanor, the monk felt a little relieved and softened his tone. He replied, "This esteemed layman is kind-hearted. The tower garden is a restricted area, and one cannot enter without the Abbot's permission. The layman can burn incense outside the tower garden as a gesture of sincerity. That pagoda was built for Dao Yu Xian Shi..."
Saying this, the monk turned and pointed to a pagoda in the center of the tower.
Qin Sang had long awakened the Heavenly-Eyed Butterfly, his gaze sweeping across the rows of Buddhist stupas.
The function of a stupa is to enshrine the relics of high monks from the temple.
Through the Buddha light at the top of the pagoda, one can see that some contain relics, while others hold bowls, robes, rosaries and other personal belongings of high monks from their lifetimes.
Although it is an ordinary thing, it has been given an unusual meaning by people.
Following the monk's finger, Qin Sang saw a white stupa deep within the Buddha's light.
The relic is oval-shaped, pure white and flawless, looking no different from other relics.
The relic had been enshrined in Zhulan Temple for many years, but no one had discovered its extraordinary nature. It was impossible to see any divine qualities with the naked eye.
The color is correct.
But to verify its authenticity, you must hold it in your hand and use the secret art taught by Xiao Xiangzi for verification.
Qin Sang pondered to himself, the Zhu Lan Temple shouldn't go to such great lengths for an ordinary stupa relic and deliberately replace it with a fake, right Otherwise, wouldn't that defeat the purpose of offering it up
He followed the monk to the incense stand before the pagoda, performed the proper rituals, and pondered the possibility of taking action now and forcefully seizing the relic.
During the Dharma assembly, Zhi Lan Temple was under tight security, and masters from various temples also came to participate in the assembly. They were all gathered together, but his and Liuli's preparations were inadequate.
You only have one chance to make a move.
Once his purpose is revealed, the venerable master of Zhu Lan Temple will realize that the relic is a priceless treasure.
After assessing the situation, Qin Sang felt that the chances of success this time were slim.
When Qin Sang learned that the venerable monk's meditation hall was located on a cliff face behind the pagoda forest, he completely abandoned the idea of attacking now.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
He charged into the fray, certainly not as quick as the three Venerables' movements.
Here is the text translated into English:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Three venerables acting together, needn't defeat him outright; merely cooperate in a spirit array to delay him for a moment. While he is occupied, they can whisk away the offerings within the tower and leave him with nothing but an empty bucket.
Qin Sang, under the pretense of admiring the deeds of Master Hongyi, chatted with the monks and secretly used his Heavenly Eye divine ability to record the operation rules of the temple's protective spirit formation. After returning, he would further deduce them.
until the end of the Dharma assembly.
Qin Sang followed the crowd out of Zhu Lan Temple and met with Liuli at night to explain the situation.
