Chapter 121: Losing Ten Thousand to Gain One
e to translate anything else!neither distant nor close.Lin Zhengren's peripheral vision caught sight of Fu Bosong, tall and thin, standing beside him. He seemed to have been talking to Du Ruhui just b...The Buddha spoke of the Six Realms, which are: the Heavenly Realm, the Asura Realm, the Human Realm, the Animal Realm, the Hungry Ghost Realm, and the Hell Realm.
Of course, in the Buddhist world of demons, the "human" path is replaced by "demons".
If all beings cannot attain Buddhahood, they can only be reborn in the six realms of existence, suffering the eight kinds of suffering.
This is just my opinion!
Those who have reached a certain level of cultivation all know that the Source Sea is the ultimate destination for all things in the world, and death is the eternal end for all living beings.
The so-called Six Realms and the cycle of reincarnation are like the concept of Nirvana, a notion fabricated by humans that is akin to divine fantasy.
Not to mention, the Buddha said that in the Six Paths of Reincarnation there is also a Human Path...... Humans are all creations of the Demon Race, so isn't it nonsense to say that everyone is born into one of the Six Paths

As the culmination of Buddhist teachings in the demon world, there was once a powerful demon who questioned Master Xiong.
Master Xiong's answer was that the six realms of samsara, comprising three good and three evil, are all shared by ordinary beings. The difference lies in their karmic retribution realms due to their actions. The six realms themselves are not important; what truly matters is the cycle of rebirth.
Reincarnation is not about entering the primal ocean and then returning to live the same life again.
It is true that there exists a paradise, and those who devoutly believe and live a virtuous life throughout their lives will be able to enter this realm after death and be with the Buddha. But this is also a concept of the afterlife found in many other religions, nothing extraordinary.
True, the paradise also has the six realms of reincarnation, karma, and notions of past, present, and future lives. But that's just an evolution of ancient mythology, confined to its own realm of pleasure.
Besides Buddha and Bodhisattvas, there are no real humans or demons in the Pure Land. For that world is not truly existent. All past actions have shaped my present form, and all current actions will shape my future body.
Past, present, and future, reflected are the cycles of life. Cause and effect is the true meaning of reincarnation.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Buddhists cultivate the future life by practicing in the present moment.
Those who truly posit themselves in the ethereal and nebulous hereafter are misguided, clinging to the small view! At the culmination of one's practice, at most they will reside in pure lands like Sukhavati, a dreamlike illusion of life and death.
The Six Paths of Reincarnation in Buddhist teachings simply want to tell ordinary people that good and evil have consequences, and actions bring about retribution.
While Yu Zheng planted the Six Paths Forest at the entrance to the Shenxiao world, concealing the outline of reincarnation, what did he seek
With a single sword stroke, the clutter was cleared away, revealing the true nature of the Six Paths Grove. Just then, the clock struck.
The chime of the knowing bell did not come from Jiang Wang's volition.
Under the suppression of the guardian deity's pair of golden gourds, his situation was extremely difficult. Although this guardian deity was only a physical manifestation of a divine presence, Xuan Nan Gong had already completed his preparations for his Divine King body. What he needed to do more was to maintain the balance of his divine body and prevent it from collapsing. He waited for an opportunity to call upon the response of the ancient imperial city's divine platform.
That day, the deities on the Yao Fa Altar were lined up in formations, able to divide into nine groups to confront Xie Ai. It showed that his strength had been partially released.
At this moment, Chai plucked the Three-Life Orchid flower. He also withdrew a portion of his divine power into the guardian deity general. With the perspective of a heavenly demon, he attacked Jiang Wang's skills, rendering them useless. The Divine Sword Technique was like child's play in comparison. Jiang Wang, renowned for slaying numerous demon kings, even found himself unable to shake the sounding bell!
Every time I try to use the Wisdom Bell, it gets interrupted beforehand.
As Xuan Nangong's heart power continued to be released, the gap between the two sides grew larger and larger. Even with the support of the Eternal Jade Bead, Jiang Wang couldn't hold on any longer.
In the course of the battle, Xuan Nan even saw that when Xing Nian Zen Master kindled his fire of merit, he tied an karmic thread to Jiang Wang using the bell of knowing and hearing!
It was this thread of fate, unknowingly woven by unseen hands, that led Zhiwen Zhong to Jiang Wang's side. Jiang Wang himself couldn't see it, and even a true demon like Juan Yingyang remained oblivious.
At that time, Master Xingnian had channeled his full strength into the Shenxiao world. Unlike Xuan Nanggong who merely used the divine statues to act, he hadn't simply borrowed their power. Although he had seen this thread, it wasn't so easy to pull. But Xingnian was dead, and he was still alive. As long as he recovered one-fifth of the statue's divine power, he could wrap this causal thread around Jiang Wang's neck.
At this time, his biggest concern was how to avoid wasting the divine king's body after Yu Zhengdazu refused to return. After all, it was the accumulation of many years on the Platform of Conferment!
Created by Emperor Yuan Xi himself, this divine body crafted for the supreme deity is a testament to the perfection of Shinto.
Had he not known that he had no chance of achieving the rank of a god, he would have wanted to take over this body! The sudden clang of the bell was truly unexpected.
Because Jiang Wang's every response failed to exceed his anticipation. The man exerted all his effort with combat prowess almost on par with the new king, Di Yi Wei Yixing, but under the gaze of the celestial demons, he was like an ant struggling and maneuvering, employing all eighteen martial arts.
Indeed, it is wonderful and poses no threat. The only unexpected thing about this moment is that it's the first one of its kind.
All the entrants to the Shenxiao Secret Realm who initially participated and underwent the Six Paths Examination.
Who was the first to understand "the Six Paths are One" and realize that several teams are actually existing in the same place

It wasn't the naturally inspired Rokuichi, nor was it the cunning Zhuruo. It was Jiang Wang!
In the mirror world, he gained a sense of "outsider's clarity." He observed the journeys of Chai A Si, Yuan Meng Ji, Zhu Dali, and She Gu Yu, and through them, he glimpsed the true meaning of the Shenxiao world. He felt the "rebirth" and "infinite possibilities."
>
When Chai Yi Jian split the Six Paths Forest, exposing its layout to the world, it wasn't him, Jiang Wang, who struck the Bell of Knowing. Instead, his "Knowing" within the Six Paths Forest was being pursued by the Bell of Knowing!
>
While he was devouring the mirage dragon in the red makeup mirror, at a time when Chai A Si and Yuan Meng Ji were completely unaware, he had already sensed something different about Liu Dao Lin. He quietly left a thought of a Nian Chen technique unfolding in the forest as a casual move – he really wanted to grasp any possible opportunity and make every effort.
But this idle move had no effect. A thought not strong enough was already swallowed by the cycle of this forest.
On the contrary, the thoughts from that time now have an echo!
At that time, he asked himself two questions in his heart—what was the connection between these six paths And what was the source of life in the Divine Thunder Realm
At the time when he had just entered the Shenxiao world and knew very little about it, he believed that only by finding answers to these two questions could he find a way back to the mortal world.
Later, seeing the Everlasting Spring and the Heavenly Demon Altar, he had other ideas and tried to put them into practice, but they all failed. After countless hopes ignited and extinguished, returning to this moment... he had already found the answers to both questions!
The connections between the six paths in the Six Paths Forest represent the cycle of reincarnation, where good actions lead to positive outcomes and bad actions lead to negative ones.
And the lifeblood of Shenxiao Land comes from these tree stumps in Liudao Forest, each a wisp of fate!
Zhu Dali had once, in one of the illusions within that realm, killed a version of his future with the help of Taiping Daozhu.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!

Jiang Wang's ceaseless thinking and searching, at this moment, ushered in an explosion of inspiration, causing the chimes to resonate constantly.
The world of Shenxiao!
A world brimming with both hope and despair. Do you know how many wishes are fulfilled here How many dreams are shattered
Jiang Wang had rung the Bell of Knowledge countless times, longing to summon the old path of the World-Honored One. But as the bell's chime echoed through the Six Paths Forest at this moment, he suddenly understood —
Where does the World Honored One go now
Wherever you go, it is the path of the Buddha.
The Dharma endures, the Buddha is never extinguished.
Wherever the heart goes, the body follows.
He Jiangwang......cannot achieve it.
Though the Six Paths of Buddhism exist, this is not his path!
Though Buddhism is boundless, there's no boat of mine to ferry people across the sea of suffering.
If we say that the true meaning of Shenxiao World is "infinite possibilities".
This is the end of a paragraph. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
If we say that in this world, success and failure have their own predetermined destiny. Then, after so many "possibilities" are shattered, what kind of success will the Shenxiao world face
Jiang Wang's mind raced, a horrifying possibility taking root. As a member of the human race, he had to convey this possibility back to the present world. But his current situation was dire. He couldn't even find a way back to the mortal realm, let alone see the direction home, so how could he possibly deliver the message
How can I do that
At this very moment, within the realm of Shenxiao, a subtle yet profound shift is taking place. It marks another fundamental alteration to this world, occurring after the reshaping of time and space.
Chai stood calmly, gazing serenely at Liu Dao Lin, listening to the sound of the Zhiwen bell. His eyes were so distant, as if he were looking upon the Buddha's ascetic practice.

That great being, born at the end of ancient times and achieving enlightenment in the middle ages, shone brightly during the Great War of Lianshan's Dragon Hunt. He imparted teachings to all beings, regardless of whether they were demons, humans, dragons, or monsters, showing no favoritism whatsoever. To what lofty heights did his realm and his Buddhist practice ascend
This is a magnificent vista on the path of cultivation. Though there are distinctions between humans and demons, it still fills his heart with longing.
Now, he holds in his hand the three-life orchid he has cultivated for a long time. It has reached the point of connecting through three lives and mastering the past, present, and future. As long as he takes this last step, he can achieve transcendence.
Then, the realm of the venerable one, he could also glimpse. The scenery seen by the venerable one, he also had a chance to see.
After more than three thousand years of planning, the time for harvest has arrived.
The struggle against Yinyunian has finally come to a victorious conclusion!
The current predicament of the Yao clan is far from being resolved by just one or two individuals transcending their limits. Why did Yu Zhen, who had already transcended, establish the Heavenly Demon Altar
Yu Zheng had the possibility to return to transcendence, yet why did he ultimately reject Yuan Xi Who could refuse the view from the pinnacle

Don't you see how even the Tiger Tai Sui has been pushed to such extremes It spared no effort, even daring to provoke the majesty of the ancient imperial city!
There is no one else in the world who understands the heavenly decree like Yu Zheng, so no demon can understand Yu Zheng's decisions.

Whether it was Xuan Nan Gong, the empty-minded Ji, or any other celestial demon in Mo Yun City right now, perhaps Emperor Yuan Xi understood, but he only let out a sigh.

This Buddha's transmission of the Six Paths, planted by Yu Zheng under the name of the Forest of Six Paths. Chai naturally understood it.
After slicing open the Six Paths Forest with a single sword, he understood too much! He understood Yu Zhen.
Perhaps the Six Paths Forest in this Shenxiao world is the place where those young demon races are most likely to gain something. It's a pity that out of the twelve young demons who entered the Six Paths Forest to undergo the trials, all but a few have died or been injured.
He stood on the only mountain path left after both mountains were shattered.
Looking around, I only see the demoralized Mo Luo Ganaling Xi Hua, whose two demon banners were cut in half by Lu Qi Lang. Of course, I also saw Snake Gu Yu hiding in a corner of the world, and Zhu Dali chasing after him closely.
...and this body... Chai A-Si, who has already begun to awaken, but still doesn't know where the path lies nor how far he can travel.
These, are the future of the demon race. Or rather, it's a part of the demon race's future. No one could believe that they would be able to resist the human race in the future.
Compared to Jiang Wang who was fighting with Xuan Nangu Gong to the death, they all paled in comparison!
It is known that Lu Qi'er, Ling XiHua, Zhu LanRuo, Yang Yu, and Shu GaLan, these five prodigious demon clan prodigies, were all pursuing Jiang Wang at their peak. In the process, three were slain by Jiang Wang and two were seriously injured!
Although Ling Xi Hua's courage had been broken, he never gave up on fighting for what he wanted. Just like the most lowly but toughest of creatures, no matter how much people despise or hate him, he always finds his own way to survive.
Although Lu Qi's magic was cut, he didn't lose any confidence. He always knew that the strength came from him, Lu Qi, not his supernatural powers. Even if it happened a thousand or ten thousand times, he would still dare to face Jiang Wang.

Shegouyu, though cold and ruthless, possesses an extraordinary vitality. No one can match their tenacity for "living." Living is the most powerful word; living means infinite possibilities.
Pig Dali might not be extraordinary, but his burning ideals give him a light that no one can ignore.
Chai A Si may have been mediocre in talent before, but now he has... a brave character. Is the future worth it
Perhaps an answer is not necessary.
Chai suddenly laughed loudly, "Flying Light Flying Light, I urge you to have a cup of wine with me, and I will give you three thousand years!" At this moment, his boundless passion made Chai A Si's unremarkable face shine with captivating brilliance.
He laughed uproariously, brandishing his rusty iron sword like a fine brush. He poured all his boundless passion and soaring sword energy into the ink, letting it flow freely as he painted with abandon.
On the back of a stele in front of the Six Paths Grove, four large characters are inscribed: "Isn't this fun"
Before the Six Paths Forest, there is a stone tablet.
There are words both in front of and behind the stele.
The front reads "Guests come from afar."
The back reads, "Not taking pleasure in anything other than this."
This is a dialogue across time and space between two powerful demon ancestors.
Perhaps they had never met before and had no previous interactions in their lives.
When they shine, they are not in the same era.
But at this very moment, here and now, perhaps we could become kindred spirits!
Like-minded people will always meet, whether in mountains or waters!
This sentence, "guests coming from afar, is it not joyful" taken from the beginning of Yu Zheng's work and ending with the response of Chai, is almost identical to a saying by a sage in the Confucian classics of humanity.
The opening line of the Analects states, "Is it not pleasant to learn Is it not delightful to have friends from afar come visit Not to be angry when people don't understand you, is this not the behavior of a gentleman"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
This sentence is noted by great scholars as "the gate of entering the Dao, the foundation of accumulating virtue." How similar are those places here and there.
This is the true nature of the Great Way, all things return to one!
In that unrestrained laughter, Chai crushed the three-life orchid in his hand, with no trace of reluctance, his posture carefree. Just like casually discarding a fallen leaf.
Little sparks of light scatter across the heavens and earth.
His laughter also dissipated.
Chai A Si suddenly woke up, regaining control of his body. He picked up his rusty iron sword again and saw the Wan Shen Hai, Feng Shen Tai, thousands of divine statues, and Lu Qi Lang and the others.

For a moment, I was lost.
He knew best what had happened, but he was also the least able to speak about it.
The time spent with Chai was short, but the journey from fear, resentment, suspicion, to trembling, excitement, and now near-worshipful admiration!
Chai gave up the easily attainable transcendence, gifting the 3,000 years of time and 3,000 years of planning to the demon clan. He was confident that even after giving up these 3,000 years of struggle, he could still prove transcendence! He was confident that his 3,000 years of effort were worth it!
The Heavenly Demon's lifespan is ten thousand years. I wager half my life! What a bold spirit, what courage!
The changes in the world of Shenxiao never ceased for a moment.

The guardian deity's golden gourd hammer had already sealed off Jiang Wang's spacetime. But circle after circle of causal ripples briefly rippled him outward.
The ripples extend far beyond Jiang Wangxuan and Nan Gong, far beyond Lu Qi and Ling Xi Hua. Everyone in this world can feel the power of karma at this moment.
This is a test.
These causal ripples did not originate from the Zhina Wen Zhong. Instead, they stem from the Six Paths Forest, surging within the rules of the world, creating waves throughout the entire Shenxiao world!

After seeing the path to transcendence, Hu Taisui still wanted to seize control of the Sealing God Platform and hasten his ascension to the peak.
The Chan Fa Yuan, in the Shenxiao Bureau, first seeks to complete the full divination and obtain all results, then seeks to reclaim the Zhiwen Bell.
At the very beginning, the s started laying out two unrelated lines. One line aimed to seize the bell of Zhiwen, and the other sought to pluck the fruit of Hu Taisui. Finally, after receiving teachings from the Dharma Demon Mo Jia, they set their sights on the San Sheng Lan Yin flower.
The Winter Empress, Xie Ai, came specifically for the San Sheng Lan because of its flowers. She was willing to pay a huge price to intervene across lifetimes, but she missed seeing the flower bloom and wither.
Xuan Nan Gong wanted to fulfill Yuan Xi's last decree, pushing forward the conferment of the supreme divine title, and peeking into his own path of transcendence.

No matter their background, no matter their cultivation level, no matter how much they have prepared.

Boom! Boom! Boom!
Ding! Ding! Ding!
This world is changing violently, the news spreading like wildfire! Mountains split into gorges, plains transformed into rivers.
The rain fell like arrows, the wind howled like a mourner.
>
The sun was shining brightly, and the mud and stones were like dragons.
All beings in this world, whether gods, demon kings, or true demons, can only watch helplessly as this change unfolds.
In the Shenxiao world, all possibilities have been played out, all foreshadowing has been revealed. This moment is truly "pure and innocent beyond the heavens," and no one can interfere with anything anymore.
Whether it be the human race or the demon race, no being could stop Yu Zheng.
This is a world with infinite possibilities, but within this game of Shenxiao, all possibilities are invalid, all dreams are shattered, and all layouts fail!
At this moment of cause and effect established, reincarnation recast, and the world rising to a new level, the rules of this world itself are to be restored to their "fairness."
Please note: I've removed the " " as they weren't part of the content needing translation.
To gain one thing is to lose another!
When the "causes" of failure are piled to an extreme, they can lead to the achievement of success!
This round was hidden from all beings throughout history, including countless demon geniuses who have descended into this world over tens of thousands of years, and many powerful demon masters. Even Xuan Nan Gong, who controls the Sealing God Stage, didn't know the inside story!
Of course, it also fooled the human race!
Whether it be the remnants of celestial light or the immortal spring, including the mirage dragon and all that has accumulated over tens of thousands of years in this world, they are all resources for this great world as it ascends to a higher state of being.
Whoever participates in the Shenxiao Bureau, is contributing to its success.
All those who aspire to attain immortality in the Heavenly Realm of Shenxiao, must achieve it through Yu Zhen's "Dao".
This "Dao" is not about him being able to walk even farther after transcendence. This "Dao" is the celestial world itself!
In this last Shenxiao Bureau, Yu Zhen destroyed all the plans of the participants, even his own resurrection.

Better to gain one thing than to lose ten thousand.
Achievement may be the most unlikely possibility in today's world!
Because in this step, what he needs to contend with is the ruler of the mortal world, the human who suppresses all heavens and myriad realms!
When he failed to seize power, he fled to the Chaotic Sea, seeking a path for the demon clan.
But there was no path of the demon race in the chaotic sea. As early as ancient times, it had already been cut off by the human race.
Later, he returned to the Shenxiao World and, with his transcendent status, extended the lifespan of Emperor Yuan Xi. Afterward, he proclaimed himself the leader of the Heavenly Demon Altar... What is being sought at this very moment, today, is a bridge connecting to the heavens, a key that unlocks the shackles binding the demon clan for millions of years!
The Shenxiao World is open to all beings from outside the heavens, treating them equally.
>
And "openness," is the greatest possibility that this world seeks!
From this point forward, for countless millennia, the Shenxiao World will be open to the demon realm! It will be open to the mortal world! It will be open to all the heavens and myriad realms!
From this point forward, the demon clan... are no longer prisoners!he Black Tide can enter, those powerful Divine Realm aberrations, including the Primordial Chaos Entity, are naturally nothing to speak of.The Central Mountain is almost breached! Even with the Divine...
