Chapter 549 The Rise of Demonic Path!
The seventh kalpa,
The story of Chan Buddhism came to an end with the outcome of "stealing a chicken but losing the rice, losing both the lady and the soldiers".
afterwards,
Pan Geng, who had become very popular, led the four great witches, Xingtian, Houyi, Chiyou and Ying Zheng, and openly transferred the witch tribe to Beijuluzhou for development.
Anyway, the demon tribe suffered heavy casualties this time, so they don’t need so much land.
The two races of wizards and liches also formally formed an alliance after the war, with Nuwa as their main backer, and the two Western saints Jie Yin and Zhunti as their secret support, and they seemed to be able to compete with Taoism.
The Dao Sect was hurt.
The Human Sect was fine, with only one Golden Immortal, Yi Xi, dying. However, the Orthodox Sect lost five Golden Immortals in one go: Nan Ji Xian Weng, Chi Jing Zi, Tai Yi Zhenren, Qing Xu Daode Zhenjun, and Yang Jian.
The strength dropped to the lowest point in an instant.
Fortunately, the Chan sect has a profound foundation. It has the two golden immortals Yunzhongzi and Guangchengzi to support it, as well as seven inner disciples including Huanglong Zhenren, Juliusun, Lingbao Dafa Shi, Wenshu Guangfa Tianzun, Puxian Zhenren, Yuding Zhenren and Daoxing Tianzun. It should not be underestimated.
The most dramatic
Not long after this war, the three disciples of the Chan school, Juliusun, Manjusri Bodhisattva and Samantabhadra, could not resist the instigation of the Taoist Master Zhunti and resolutely rebelled against the Chan school and joined Buddhism.
This made Yuanshi Tianzun extremely furious!
It seems that Juliusun, Manjusri and Samantabhadra saw that the Chan sect suffered an unprecedented setback and they themselves were unable to break through to the Golden Immortal level within the Chan sect, so they might as well go to Buddhism to give it a try.
In addition, Buddhism has not yet recovered from the previous catastrophe and is eager to recruit talented people. In order to persuade the three people to rebel, the Taoist Zhunti made a lot of promises.
The result is,
Jiliusun was named Jiliusun Buddha, replacing the fallen Dipankara and becoming the leader of the seven ancient Buddhas in Buddhism.
Manjusri Bodhisattva was named Manjusri Bodhisattva, and Samantabhadra Bodhisattva was named Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, both of which are listed as one of the eight great Bodhisattvas in Buddhism.
Another Bodhisattva, Avalokitesvara, who had betrayed the Chan teaching early on, was named Pu Guang Gong De Shan Wang Tathagata shortly after his reincarnation in the Pure Land, replacing the fallen Sakyamuni Tathagata and taking charge of Mahayana Buddhism.
With the addition of the reincarnated Maitreya Buddha, and the seven ancient Buddhas including Vipaśyin Buddha, Sikhin Buddha, Viśvabha Buddha, Kunagamamuni Buddha, and Kashyapa Buddha, the strength of Buddhism seems to be recovering to its original state.
Taoist Zhunti is worthy of being a strong operator, and he can always turn things around.
…
Shenxiao Palace.
"I don't understand why we have to take action. Wouldn't it be better to let the Chan sect be destroyed?" Yao Chi asked.
Qin Mo smiled slightly and said, "Even if I don't take action, Master Tongtian will do it ."
"No way?"
Yao Chi didn't believe it, "Aren't Jiejiao and Xianjiao mortal enemies? And Master Tongtian is so proud..."
"There is a grudge, but it's far from the point of wishing the other person dead." Qin Mo saw it more clearly, "Moreover, given Tong Tian's character, I'm afraid he would want to personally avenge his grudge against the Chan Sect."
"so……"
Yao Chi seemed to be thinking about something, but still had doubts, "Then why don't you just let Tong Tian Sect Master take action? Why do you still want to? Not only will you offend Nu Wa, but you will also destroy the neutral image of the Heavenly Court."
"How can we seize the treasure openly if we don't take action?" Qin Mo said with a smile.
Yao Chi: “…”
The Five Fire Seven Feathers Fan, Yin-Yang Mirror and Nine Dragons Divine Fire Hood that Qin Mo intercepted this time are all the Four Decaying Heavenly Magical Treasures, and are among the best of the best in the Chan Sect.
The Five Fires and Seven Feathers Fan was given to the Fire Star God Wanshi Zhenjun, the Yin-Yang Mirror was given to his uncle Chimei Zhenjun, and the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover was given to Sun Wu, one of the four great marshals.
At the level of magic weapons,
The wealth of the immortals in heaven has already crushed all the major sects.
"I don't believe it, this is your only purpose." Yao Chi is not so easy to fool.
"Of course it's more than that," Qin Mo smiled secretly. Yao Chi was getting to know him better and better. "It's mainly to shock Pan Geng and stop him from going too far, lest he end up getting burned."
Since ancient times,
The one who sticks out gets shot.
If Yuanshi Tianzun really gets angry, Nuwa will never be able to stop him. If Yuanshi Tianzun really loses his face and takes action himself, I'm afraid Pan Geng and others will not end well.
There is precedent for this.
At the beginning, during the Conferred Gods Battle, Yuanshi Tianzun joined forces with Taishang Laojun to deal with the Three Sisters personally.
"Then, let's just let this matter go?" Yao Chi didn't believe it.
"Of course not," Qin Mo shook his head. "This calamity will definitely be peaceful, but when the next calamity comes, Yuanshi Tianzun will not let it go given his vengeful character."
"In the next catastrophe, the strength of the Chan sect won't recover so quickly, right?" Yao Chi said.
This is not like Buddhism.
Although Guanyin Bodhisattva, Maitreya Buddha, the Seven Ancient Buddhas and others have fallen, their true spirits have been taken back to the Paradise, and their strength will soon be restored after reincarnation.
The fallen Golden Immortal of the Chan Sect was completely annihilated...
"If the next calamity doesn't work, then let's go to the next one." Qin Mo looked casual, "You and I both know that for a saint, a calamity is not very long. A golden immortal is not that precious."
As long as Yuanshi Tianzun has enough patience,
Even if the Orthodox Sect lost five Golden Immortals in one go, after two or three kalpas, the Orthodox Sect's strength would be restored to its original state, and new Golden Immortals would always emerge.
Although it sounds cruel, to a saint, the kalpa is really just a game.
No one is irreplaceable.
The ones who control the structure of the various factions in Hongmengtian are still the saints. For example, after Yao Chi achieved enlightenment and became a saint, the status of the Heavenly Court rose sharply, and they are already an existence that no faction can underestimate.
Qin Mo no longer needs to form alliances.
Similarly, the immortals in heaven will also have a longer development period. Whether they can break through to the Golden Immortal level or even go further depends on their respective luck.
…
One hundred thousand years seems like a cycle.
Just as Qin Mo expected, after the seventh catastrophe ended, the eighth catastrophe that followed seemed somewhat calm.
The rising witch tribe, in cooperation with the demon tribe, would occasionally harass southern Danbu Continent.
But they were basically insignificant, and even the Golden Immortals did not participate much. Instead, the people below were fighting with great pleasure, and various immortal cultivation sects continued to emerge.
at the same time,
The two rival sects, the orthodox sect and the unorthodox sect, fought each other openly and covertly several times just to fight for their dignity.
As for Buddhism, because it had lost its foundation in Hongmeng Heaven, it had to rely on the Taoist Zhunti to take action himself, changing into various identities, wandering between the major forces, and continuing its pimping business.
On a whim,
The Taoist Zhunti might even sow discord, add fuel to the fire, etc., and he is shameless.
On the contrary, the Heavenly Court is sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai.
The real protagonist of the eighth catastrophe is actually the rise of the devil.
As early as the creation of Hongmeng Heaven, three thousand gods and demons were born between heaven and earth. Later, they basically perished in the great war. After lurking for several kalpas, they have recently shown signs of revival.
Whether it is the Nandanbu Continent controlled by the Human and Chan sects, the Dongsheng Shenzhou where the Jie sect is located, or even the Xiniuhezhou controlled by the Heavenly Court, there are the figures of demonic monks.
These people either hid in the dark or acted openly, and they caused quite a stir in the world of immortal cultivation.
The monks’ practice environment,
As each kalpa progresses, the situation becomes worse and worse.
The spiritual energy between heaven and earth is becoming increasingly scarce...
In addition, the kalpas continued to overlap. Although many causes and effects were severed by several large-scale concentrated killings, there were still a lot of causal karma accumulated, filling the world.
The violent temper is very strong,
Naturally, this will lead to the rampant evil.
