The cold wind and rain cover the thousand-year-old temple, and the morning bells and evening drums reveal the meaning of desolation.

The originally quiet and peaceful green tiles and yellow walls, the ancient trees and moss turned into pieces of ruins. The white tower that directly endured the collision of demons was tilted about 20 degrees, looking shaky.

Even after a day and night of sorting and purification, the stench and corrupt poison left by the demon corpse transformed by the devil king's remaining body cannot be removed. The dirty blood and venom corrode the ground and walls into a pothole.

More than half of the monks in Santa Temple were killed or injured, and the bodies of the dead had just been cremated. According to the presidency, the ashes were stored in the tilted white tower to commemorate their achievements. A group of monks sat around the white tower, reliving the dead souls while using magic to repair the white tower.

It was in this situation that Xiang Ningxuan walked into Santa Temple. The monks in the temple were all busy, and no one came to greet him.

He sniffed and walked straight to the near Baita Tower to find the host of Santa Temple, saying, "The host, the magic energy here is rich, and I am afraid it is not a place to stay for a long time."

Yesterday, Xiang Ningxuan, Rong Zheng and others relied on their special abilities to clear out most of the magic energy pollution, otherwise, this place might have become a demonic realm on earth.

Magic energy pollution is not so easy to remove. Just like cleaning dirty houses, most of the garbage is swept away in the first round, but the house is far from being cleaned. It takes much more time and energy to clean up the remaining garbage than the first round.

This is the case in Santa Temple now. Magic energy is much more difficult to deal with than garbage. Its pollution and corrosion penetrates into various horns and penetrates into the construction land. If people live in such an environment for a long time, they will easily become ill.

Nowadays, the combat power is getting higher and higher. A battle may take only a few hours, but it will take a long time to heal the trauma caused by the battle.

The host sighed and said, "The tower is there, and as long as these three white towers are here, we must stay here and purify this land based on the white tower. Of course, disciples who have insufficient cultivation will be placed separately."

Since the monk insisted, Xiang Ningxuan no longer advised him, and he had no time to stay here to help clear the ruins. Instead, he stood up and bowed to the dead, then stepped into the void and entered the plane where Samantabhadra Bodhisattva was.

The gray-black mist filled the surroundings, and the deep demonic energy tried to erode everything, and all kinds of negative emotions disturbed the mind. Xiang Ningxuan simply suspected that he had run back to his dream again.

Fortunately, a golden barrier not far ahead separated the magic fog. Samantabhadra sat cross-legged on the back of the six-tooth white elephant. Seeing Xiang Ningxuan coming, he smiled and nodded and greeted him.

Xiang Ningxuan ran into the barrier of golden light and asked, "Bodhisattva, why are you like this here?"

"The demon energy released by the Demon King's death is extremely huge. I absorb more here, so the outside world will be less polluted."

Xiang Ningxuan said admiringly: "The Bodhisattva has the heart."

"Who will go to hell if I don't go to hell? This is what Ksitigarbha said." Samantabhadra said, "What are you doing when you come to me?"

Xiang Ningxuan hurriedly said, "I have confirmed that the Demon King possessed me and I want to ask you for advice on how to deal with it."

Samantabhadra said: "Enough to cultivate one's own nature and maintain a normal mind. Everyone has a demon of heart. As long as there is obsession in my heart, there will be a demon of heart. Even if I have obsession in my heart, I will never become a Buddha, but I will not be trapped by the demon of heart."

Although Buddhism respects the Buddhas together, it is actually a polytheistic religion. In theory, everyone can become a Buddha. Buddha is the ultimate goal of Buddhist practice. In Journey to the West, Sun Wukong became a battle-fighting Buddha. Although the four great Bodhisattvas have higher strength and status, they can only have the Bodhisattva fruit due to their obsessions.

Xiang Ningxuan said: "But the Heavenly Demon King is different from ordinary inner demons. He is more cunning and stronger. I wonder if the Bodhisattva has any way to deal with the inner demons, so I will give some advice."

Samantabhadra smiled and said, "First of all, your mentality is wrong. So what about the devil king, so what about the ordinary inner demon? Only because you are afraid, will you care about the difference between them. What about your previous fearless courage? Confidence and courage are more useful than any method. In the process of practice, cultivating the mind is more important than cultivating one's own self-cultivation. Only a strong heart can control powerful power. All kinds of desires, resentment, etc. will turn into inner demons to test the inner demons. You must guide the great way, keep moving forward, rely on your original heart, and eliminate temptations, so that you can pass the test of the inner demons."

Xiang Ningxuan nodded repeatedly and said, "It makes sense, I think so too. However, if you are not afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of if you want. The Bodhi rosary lost more than half of the Bodhi beads after the battle with the Demon King. Do you think they have been filled?"

"Oh~" Samantabhadra understood, Xiang Ningxuan was here to get the benefit. He shook his head and smiled bitterly, "You kid, you are more refined than that monkey. There are only a few Bodhi seeds used in the Bodhi rosary, and they will be gone if they are broken. I guess you can't use other Buddha treasures either. Only my jade pendant has the effect of exorcism. It can passively protect the invasion of demon energy and actively dispel demon energy. I will give it to you for self-defense."

After all, Sun Wukong is a monkey. No matter how serious he is, he can be more refined than others? Then the earth is not ruled by monkeys! Xiang Ningxuan was playing with the jade pendant and said with a smile: "Hehe, thank you Bodhisattva."

The jade pendant is a color of gold and red, which feels warm and comfortable to touch. Of course, it doesn’t matter how it looks. Xiang Ningxuan can’t even distinguish between plastic and jade in the past day, and the equipment grade and effect are meaningless.

After the advancement of the legend, for Xiang Ningxuan, everything can be attributed to energy. One of the meaningful items of equipment is the energy intensity and the other is the energy circulation mode. The energy intensity is the basis and determines the level of the equipment; the energy circulation mode determines its effect, similar to gunpowder, you can use it to set off fireworks or use it as a weapon.

The golden and rosy pendant sent by Samantabhadra contains extremely pure energy, and there are two ways to release it: all-round protective shields and fixed-point active impact.

Samantabhadra waved the lotus in his hand and said calmly: "It's time for me, and I should go back and report my life. Before leaving, I still want to remind you that you don't have to pay too much attention to the affairs of the demons in your heart, but you can't take it lightly. Wine and sex corrode people's hearts, and you should cultivate yourself and cultivate your character, but you cannot forget your responsibilities, stick to your original heart, and help the poor. We will meet again if we are destined to!"

Seeing that Samantabhadra spoke solemnly, Xiang Ningxuan bowed and said, "Abide by the teachings!"

Just when Xiang Ningxuan raised his head again, he found that Samantabhadra had disappeared without a trace, and he himself had returned to the real Three Pagoda Temple.

After carefully savoring the words of Samantabhadra, Xiang Ningxuan summarized two points. One is self-improvement; the other is self-discipline. It is the same as self-improvement and virtue carrying things.

Needless to say, self-improvement is needed to continuously enrich oneself in order to realize the great goal of socialism.

If you want to be virtuous, you must first cultivate virtue. How can you do virtue? Eating, drinking and having fun is definitely not enough. Your words and deeds must be consistent with social moral norms, such as thrift, respecting the elderly and loving the young, patriotism, dedication, integrity, and friendly... Moreover, it is not a day or two, but it needs to be maintained persistently.

There are many examples of people who have been nurturing virtue for decades and never being protected. It is easy to say that virtue is carried, but without sufficient self-discipline, it is impossible to do it.
