Chapter 1289 Cold and hot hell, unable to escape
Reincarnation, coming and going, life and death, is like the turning of a wheel, going round and round in these six paths, with no end, so it is called the six paths of reincarnation.
Among the six paths of reincarnation constructed by Buddhism, only Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats can jump out of the three realms and enter the way of heaven, with immortal souls and reincarnations for hundreds of lives.
And Wu Yi has now entered the hell realm. Among the six realms, it is well known that the hell realm is the most painful.
One thing worth mentioning is that the living beings in the hell realm are not born from the mother's womb, nor are they born from eggs, but are born through transformation.
What this means is that once you fall into the hell realm, you will never be able to escape from it for life after life. You will always be reincarnated in hell and suffer hardships from generation to generation until the karma on your body is eliminated.
Buddhism has deepened or perfected the hell realm. Under the Buddhist system, hell realm is just a general term. In fact, it can be subdivided into four parts: eight hot hells, eight cold hells, near hells and lonely hells.
Except for the hell of loneliness, all other hells are created by the collective karma of all living beings. Those who commit the most serious evil will be reborn in the hell realm, and it will take them endless years to escape the suffering of this realm.
Living beings reborn in the eight hot hells suffer all kinds of great suffering. In some hot hells, sentient beings will kill each other, but they will not die. They can only endure the pain of being killed for months and months, with no way to escape.
In other prisons, sentient beings would be burned until the seven holes were smoking, or dismembered, or put into molten copper and boiled until the skin was broken and the flesh was rotten. These are the miserable conditions that appear when the bad karma of the past matures, and are unspeakably miserable.
In the eight cold hells, sentient beings are forced to suffer varying degrees of cold pain, and may even be frozen and frozen for hundreds of kalpas, but they will not die because their karma has not been exhausted.
The first thing Wu Yi fell into was the eight hot hells. Buddhism has the same view of the eight hot hells, but there are different opinions on what the eight hot hells are. In different realms, according to karma, With the accumulation of power and the gathering of tribulation energy, different types of hells will naturally evolve.
In fact, it is not necessary or meaningful to wonder which of the eight hot hells are the eight hot hells. In different realms, not to mention that the hells are different, and even the number may not be consistent. There are nine hells and ten hells.
The Buddhist scriptures explain this, but they may not all be consistent with the principles of heaven and earth. Problems are the inevitable result. When even the saints make omissions, what does a Buddhist scripture mean?
There is no constant principle in the world, and nothing remains unchanged. This must be known. Don't take scriptures as your guide and worship them like gods.
Perhaps it was the reason why the Six Paths of Reincarnation in the West Sea was first established. There were not many horrific instruments of torture in hell, and even the fire was ordinary. It did not make Wu Yi feel so uncomfortable, just like the breeze blowing by, it was not worth mentioning.
But as time went by, just like boiling a frog in warm water, from the inside out, an unknown karmic fire grew in Wu Yi's heart. Once it burned, it was painful to the bones.
And the most unbearable result is that at this time, every pore is blooming, and it is thousands of times more sensitive. The slightest pain is equivalent to being cut into pieces by a thousand knives.
Wu Yi frowned, and the fire of nameless karma burned in his heart. He didn't know where it came from, and he didn't know how long it would burn. There was no end in sight.
And as the nameless karma fire continues to burn, even though I have been reminding myself to stay pure, I can't help but feel resentment towards the reincarnated lotus. I have worked hard to build Xihai into the situation it is today, and the other party has inherited the destiny of heaven and earth. , to be snatched away so easily is extremely hateful.
As the resentment deepened, the fire of karma burned more and more, almost burning Wu Yi's soul and body from the inside out.
What happened next was that Wu Yi's body was burned to pieces by the fire of karma, leaving only a little remnant of his soul to reincarnate in the hell realm.
Among the six realms of reincarnation, the hell realm and the heavenly realm are two particularly special reincarnation passages, both of which are reincarnated. That is to say, people in the hell realm can only be reincarnated in the hell realm, while people in the heavenly realm will always be reincarnated in the heavenly realm. Buddhism is for Maintaining their status can be said to be exhausting efforts.
Wu Yi's remnant soul began a new reincarnation, and his consciousness was extremely clear, and he did not lose his reason at all because of the so-called reincarnation.
In this way, the soul and body of the human body are burned by the blazing fire. Their essence and vitality are exhausted, their blood and vitality are eliminated, and they are getting closer and closer to death. Although they can be restrained in the process of reincarnation, most of them are consumed every time they are reincarnated. Where to reincarnate.
In comparison, the souls of the Buddhas who reincarnated in the heavenly realm became more stable and stronger every time they reincarnated.
Many people think that continuous reincarnation in the hell realm can temper themselves. After tens of millions of years, their strength will be even better than before. It cannot be said that there are no such examples, but it can only be said that there are very few. The vast majority of people enter After the hell realm, even a true dragon will be refined into a loach, begging for life.
Buddhism used this method when it suppressed the demon tribe. Otherwise, you would think that the Eight True Dragons have such a good temper and no arrogance at all. They have been tempered, their energy has gone away, and they are willing to be Buddhism's lackeys.
Wu Yi has been reincarnated countless times in the first hell of the eight hot hells. At first, in the midst of extreme resentment, Wu Yi could still remember how much time had passed. However, as he reincarnated again and again, Wu Yi became mentally and physically exhausted. There is not much will left to remember this.
As the fire burned his body and burned his soul, as time passed, Wu Yi's resentment not only did not weaken, but actually strengthened.
Next, after Wu Yi had become slightly accustomed to the eight hot hells, the hell environment changed and turned into extremely cold weather. At the same time, Wu Yi's body developed large and small poisonous blisters, which were light in color at first, and then became Green and black, and finally purple and black.
As the cold air continues to invade, when the poisonous blisters turn pure black, they will explode, pus will flow out from the blisters, and the essence will be depleted again. When the essence flows away completely, the physical body will become a shell. , the soul is being punished again and again, and the oil is exhausted, and the lamp is dry, flickering and extinguishing.
In this way, Wu Yi began his reincarnation in one of the eight cold hells - the blister hell.
Reincarnation after reincarnation has certainly made Wu Yi mentally stronger, but the loss of physical energy and the decline of soul spiritual consciousness are visible to the naked eye. If he is trapped here for a long time, he will definitely die.
But how to escape? Now, the reincarnation lotus, which was born in accordance with the heaven and earth, controls these six paths of reincarnation!
