Chapter 502-1: Wusi City’s Newly Appointed Buddha Ancestor, Discussing Methods of Skipping Class (1)
[Although the White Elephant Demon’s title as senior brother was somewhat unworthy of the name, it was indeed the disciple who entered the Bodhisattva’s sect the earliest.]
[After browsing the painting scrolls, the altar master also checked some ancient sutras sealed in dust for a long time, and finally found exact records regarding the Six-Tusked White Elephant Demon.]
[At this moment, it already believes that you, this Namo Great Sage Relic Honored King Buddha, have indeed come to take over the incense power at the Bodhisattva’s request. After all, even the Bodhisattva’s eldest disciple has descended to the mortal world and come with you.]
Once the name was legitimate, the words naturally became proper. Lin Xun took out a Buddhist cultivation method precious sutra he had snatched from the Bodhisattva and bestowed it upon the altar master, also instructing that it could let its family members and trusted aides cultivate it.
Buddhist cultivation methods were not passed to outsiders. Only devout monks in temples could cultivate them.
Newly tonsured monks also could not learn profound cultivation methods. Only when their own qualifications were sufficient and they had cultivated in the temple for many years could they cultivate profound methods.
And not just anyone could become a monk. One had to possess a wisdom-root to have the chance to shave their head and become a monk.
For the altar master who controlled Wusi City’s military and political affairs, this cultivation method was actually not extremely precious.
But Lin Xun had given it special treatment, breaking the rule that the Dharma is not passed to outsiders, and allowing its family members and trusted aides to cultivate this method together. Such a favor was not small.
