Chapter 508 - 507
"Not everything you want to forget can be forgotten. There are generally three types of things in the human brain that cannot be erased: things that must be forgotten, things that must be remembered, and things that even you yourself don’t know how to forget.
The first type, the more you need to forget, the deeper it becomes etched in your memory, and it can even drive people mad. Meanwhile, the second type, the things that need to be forgotten, are often quickly erased by many, but the most vexing to deal with are those of the third kind. The more they are ignored, the deeper they hide in the corners of the mind, springing out unexpectedly to strike a heavy blow.
If Zen cultivation could erase all these, Ye Tian would truly be at ease.
Seeing Ye Tian lost in thought, the Great Zen Master said softly, "The essence of Zen cultivation lies in thorough understanding. If you can’t grasp it, entering is like a dead end." Having said that, the Great Zen Master picked up a yellow-covered scripture from the cushion he was sitting on and started reading. The archaic cover exuded an ancient aura.
"I actually want to go in."
Suddenly, a two-inch sharpness appeared between the fingers. This was the Second Finger of Panchen Finger, also the most vast and incomparable spirit of all, capable of withstanding the Skysword in the Dark Space, enough to imagine how terrifying the Second Finger of Panchen Finger was.
However, Ye Tian kept thinking there seemed to be something missing in Panchen Finger. Despite its immense power, for him, it was always like a speck of dust on a Phoenix—there was always a trace of regret.
But what exactly was missing, he couldn’t say clearly. The more he thought about it, the more he struggled desperately in the dead end of his thoughts. Simply put, he stopped thinking about it.
"What scriptures are so interesting?"
Seeing the Great Zen Master absorbed in reading the scriptures, not showing the usual solemnity seen in others when reading, but instead, his eyebrows were relaxed, and he even seemed a bit jubilant.
