Chapter 312 What do you think?
In the original time and space, when Wu Tian ruled the three realms, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, like Dipankara, faked his death and entered Nirvana, and gave up the underworld.
Wu Tian had no manpower to manage the underworld, resulting in all the evil spirits in the eighteen levels of hell escaping and wreaking havoc on the world.
This is also the greatest sin committed by Wu Tian.
In this world, Wujitana made the matter clear in advance and forced Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to stay for the safety of all living beings in the three realms, and still let Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva manage the underworld.
When Jiejiao attacked the Old Patriarch of the Styx before, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva had already noticed it, but considering that this was a personal grudge between Jiejiao and the Old Patriarch of the Styx, he pretended not to notice and did not help either side.
But, when Li Anran took action.
The light of the Chaos Bell illuminated the entire underworld, and the sound of the bell even reached the eighteen levels of hell. Even if Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva wanted to pretend that he didn't know, he couldn't do it.
Besides, he doesn't want to pretend anymore!
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva noticed that the power of the Chaos Bell this time was more than ten times greater than before. He was confused and wanted to know what was happening in the sea of blood, so he immediately stood up and flew towards the sea of blood.
Although Wu Tian still let Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva be in charge of the part of the underworld under the jurisdiction of the Buddhist world, he was still somewhat vigilant in his heart and left a clone of the World-Destroying Black Lotus in the underworld to monitor the movements of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
When Jiejiao attacked the Patriarch of the Styx, they deliberately concealed the action and Wu Tian did not notice it .
He noticed Li Anran's action this time , and immediately pulled Monkey into the Netherworld to check the situation.
Then, he met Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva who also came to check the situation.
Then, he saw the Chaos Bell that suppressed and blocked the entire sea of blood, the Zhuxian Formation that killed the incarnation of the Styx Patriarch like a blade of grass, and Li Anran and Yang Jian who joined forces with the Jiejiao!
In just a few days, the sea of blood shrank by more than ten thousand times!
The ancestor of the Styx, who once dominated the three realms, didn't even have the strength to resist, and was completely suppressed in the sea of blood, never to be able to escape!
The monkey, Wu Tian and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva were all stunned.
When they came to their senses, the latter two felt their scalps tingling and their spines chilled.
Wu Tian has the twelfth-grade black lotus of destruction on him, so he can fight Tathagata on equal terms. He also has the confidence that he can suppress the ancestor of the Styx who has gone astray on the path to enlightenment.
However, it is basically impossible for him to win or severely injure the ancestor of the Styx.
There is no need to say more about Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. With his great vow of "not becoming a Buddha until hell is empty", he can barely protect himself from the hands of the Styx Patriarch.
The fact that Li Anran and Jiejiao were able to suppress the Styx Patriarch so easily by joining forces means that he can also suppress him, suppress Tathagata, and even the entire Buddhist sect.
This means that Buddhism and Taoism...
No!
It should be said that the balance of the three realms has been completely broken!
Since the catastrophe of the Conferred Gods, the three realms have been in a situation where "Buddhism and Taoism are in conflict with each other, with Heaven mediating in the middle", while in Heaven "Chan and Jie are in conflict with each other, and they check and balance each other".
The previous shattering of the List of Gods had already broken the latter.
And now, the appearance of Li Anran has completely broken the former.
Wu Tian and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva both looked solemn with their brows furrowed.
There is no need to say much about Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Wu Tian just wanted to seize Tathagata's position as the Buddha and reform the Buddhist world, not to destroy Buddhism.
But now, if Li Anran is determined to take action against Lingshan, Lingshan will probably be destroyed in the hands of Li Anran.
"Compared to my Jiejiao, this monk must be more worried..."
When the people from Jiejiao looked at the expressions of Wu Tian and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, their anger eased a little.
After all, Jiejiao and Chenjiao are of the same origin, but Buddhism is different !
For so many years, it has been confronting the Xuanmen, which is mainly based on the Chan school, in various parts of the Three Realms. It is only with the Heavenly Court that they mediate, and neither of them wants to see another war break out in the Three Realms. Otherwise, Buddhism and the Xuanmen would have been fighting to the death long ago!
"It's a pity that Li Anran has already become the dominant force, otherwise we could have joined forces with Buddhism and maybe been able to compete with him!" When Holy Mother Wu Dang thought of their high spirits a few days ago, she felt bitter in her heart.
When Zhao Gongming first discovered that the Way of Heaven could no longer restrain the Way of Man, they were filled with excitement and ecstasy. They felt that since the Jie Religion first obtained the Chaos Bell and the Luobao Money, and then was free from all restraints and constraints, it was God's will and was destined to prosper again.
But now, without the restraints, it is Yang Jian and Li Anran who are set free!
They can only hope that Yang Jian and Li Anran will keep their promise!
Li Anran and Yang Jian noticed the expressions of the crowd, secretly exchanged glances with a hint of satisfaction in their eyes.
Li Anran deliberately did not conceal his movements. He sealed the Styx ancestor with such fanfare for the purpose of deterrence, and judging from the current situation, the effect was excellent!
"Daoist Fellow Li Anran, Daoist Fellow Yang Jian!"
For the first time, Wu Tian took the initiative to step forward and greet Li Anran and Yang Jian one by one. He then looked at Wu Dang Shengmu and others beside him and asked, "What are you two Taoist friends doing?"
"Haotian is incompetent and unjust. For the sake of the few petty profits promised by Tathagata, he disregarded the lives of the people in the Three Realms and gave the Three Realms to you. He is really unworthy of being the Emperor of Heaven. It is better for him to give up the throne forever and let my second brother take over."
Li Anran had read the life story of the Jade Emperor and knew that he was a twelfth-grade pure white lotus who had attained enlightenment. He deliberately acted badly in order to trap the law enforcement and to purify the three realms to prove his own way, but others were not aware of this. He directly labeled the Jade Emperor as incompetent, unkind and unjust.
"My master and Uncle Wu Dang disagreed with this matter. We have captured them and are about to send them to the Heavenly Prison."
Wu Tian: “???!!!”
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva: “???!!!”
Wutan’s eyes widened and he seriously suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was also confused and couldn't believe it.
He had thought that Li Anran might attack the Buddhist sect, but he never expected that Li Anran's knife would actually hit Xuanmen directly!
But soon, the two realized that something was wrong!
What they just saw was clearly Li Anran, Yang Jian and the Jiejiao people joining forces to suppress the ancestor of the Styx, so how did it become that the Jiejiao people were captured by Li Anran and Yang Jian?
There must be something wrong here!
Wu Tian and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva looked at the people of Jiejiao.
The faces of the people from Jiejiao were grim, with a bit of shame and anger. They still had their magic powers and magic weapons, but they avoided their gazes, looked aside, and did not refute.
Wu Tian and the other two almost instantly determined that the people of Jiejiao did not form an alliance with Li Anran and Yang Jian, but were forced to submit.
The two sides should have reached an agreement that the Jiejiao sect would bow its head and surrender and not resist, and Li Anran and Yang Jian would not kill them all, nor would they seal the magic power of the Jiejiao sect members and take away their magic weapons, but would only lock them up in the Heavenly Prison.
The situation should be the same over at Xuanmen!
Wu Tian was thinking about the hidden meaning of when he heard Li Anran ask, "What does Buddha Wu Tian think?"
Wu Tian: “…”
What can I think? What can I dare think?
Wu Tian looked at the Chaos Bell in Li Anran's palm and the Four Swords of Zhu Xian surrounding him, and said decisively: "Daoyou Li Anran is absolutely right. The position of Heavenly Emperor must belong to Daoyou Yang Jian."
