Volume 3: The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors Chapter 553: Pulling the devil into the trap, you call this a plan to become a god?
Buddha is the Tao!
The four words proposed by Mingyu set the tone for the talks.
A tone that can make both the appearance and the substance acceptable.
Xuanmen can help promote the Daomo Oath and can lend a hand in the Demon Ancestor's return to the path.
But the independence of Western religions cannot damage the foundation of Taoism.
Buddha is originally the Tao, which is the attitude that Yuanshi Tianzun wants, or the attitude that he represents the Three Pure Ones must strive for.
Zhunti and Jie Yin did not have much resistance to this.
Even if the Western religion has separated from the Xuanmen, after all, they are all guests of the Purple Sky and the Red Dust, and are the direct disciples of the Taoist Ancestor.
When Daozu accepted his disciples, he had already said that he would pass down six major lineages of Dharma.
Even if Western religion is separated and not included in the Xuanmen, it is still one of the Taoist lineages.
Once this is settled, everything will be easy.
Yuanshi Tianzun's expression softened a lot.
The dignified and indifferent expression finally relaxed. He looked at Jie Yin and said, "Since that's the case, could you give me another definite answer, fellow Daoist?"
Now that the tone is set, it’s time to talk about the specific plan.
Buddha is the Tao, and it cannot be just something you talk about.
We are going with the flow now, but what if he changes his mind after countless years?
Yuanshi Tianzun wanted to know how Western religions could ensure that the revolution would not degenerate?
The two saints of the West had already prepared for this.
The Taoist Jie Yin clasped his hands together, a faint smile on his face as he said, "After establishing itself, the Western Religion should be renamed the Buddhist Sect. Within the Buddhist sect, there should be the Buddhas of the past, present, and future. My junior brother and I will occupy a position outside the heavens and no longer serve as the Supreme Sect Master!"
When these words were spoken, Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu both looked at him sideways.
"Friend Daoist, you have great courage!"
Tongtian Patriarch praised sincerely.
Although he knew the general plan, this was something that even the leader had not expected.
Just give up the position of leader of Buddhism. Even a saint has to consider the influence of luck.
When Yuanshi Tianzun heard that there would be three Buddhas in Buddhism, he subconsciously looked at Mingyu.
Why does this argument feel strangely familiar?
The new king of the demon world, the great demon Mingyu, responded with a smile but did not express his opinion.
The fact that all the wise men in the ancient times have gathered in the demon world has already proved one thing - vests are useful!
Tianzun asked the two saints how to ensure that the revolution would not degenerate.
The answer of the Second Saint is: Delegate power and let the disciples below play together!
As long as we can achieve "you in me and me in you", what is there to worry about?
The Three Buddhas of Buddhism represent three positions and three pieces of cake.
The two saints used this as an exchange of interests to express their determination.
It depends on whether Tianzun is willing.
Yuanshi Tianzun frowned slightly, his eyes narrowed slightly. He stared at the Two Saints and Mingyu back and forth, but in the end he couldn't figure out anything.
"Third brother, what do you think?"
Tianzun still has a lot of resentment in his heart because he was tricked by the leader this time.
He turned his gaze towards his good brother, waiting for Tongtian to "reform himself".
Being stared at by his second brother like this, Tongtian Sect Master sat firmly on the cloud bed with an innocent look on his face.
"With my eldest brother gone, the second brother is in charge."
Although his attitude was correct, Tianzun was not happy. He raised his brows slightly and said, "How dare you trick me into coming here, and not dare to express your thoughts?"
Seeing that he couldn't shirk his responsibilities, Tongtian Sect Leader finally spoke up and asked tentatively, "Second brother, do you really want me to tell you?"
"Tell me!"
Yuanshi Tianzun glared at him majestically.
Tongtian Sect Master spread his hands, smiled slightly and said: "I think the position of Buddha is quite good now. Which one do you like, second brother?"
"Left for Duobao?" Yuanshi Tianzun's frown relaxed and he asked calmly.
Tongtian Patriarch spoke frankly, "I didn't have this idea originally, but not long ago someone asked me to borrow his eldest disciple, and I agreed without thinking too much."
The very "loyal" leader turned around and sold someone out.
Xuanyuan, who was standing by, chuckled twice.
At this moment, even Zhunti and Jie Yin turned their gazes towards Mingyu.
They originally wondered why Tongtian was so actively promoting this matter, and it turns out that the key is here!
Regarding the future path of the eldest disciple of Jiejiao, Tianzun, the second master, had to re-examine the plans of Mingyu and others.
"What on earth do you want to do?"
Yuanshi Tianzun said this, but in the end he stared at Mingyu.
Bringing the three religions into play is just to ensure the successful return of the Demon Ancestor?
Just for the Dao-Demon Oath?
What's more, the emperor of the time is sitting next to him!
With the three religions and the human race added together, what does Mingyu want to do?
Not only was Tianzun puzzled, but the two saints, the leader, and the emperor who participated in the plan also looked at Mingyu.
"Actually, you misunderstood!"
Mingyu smiled slightly, making the five people feel nervous.
There's no mistake about this smile!
Something big is happening!
Both Xuanyuan, who had been Mingyu's comrade-in-arms, and the leader who knew him very well, had their hearts in their throats at this moment.
"What did we misunderstand?"
Mingyu smiled and said, "Besides the three religions and the human race, there is another party that wants to join our plan..."
"Which side?"
Xuanyuan asked aloud, is there any force in the entire prehistoric world that can rival the three religions and the human race?
Mingyu saw what he was thinking. He pointed to the sky, his smile unchanged: "There's nothing in the prehistoric world, but there is something outside the heavens!"
Outer space?
The four saints all frowned, somewhat puzzled.
They looked up subconsciously, and then suddenly realized.
"Demon God?!"
Boom~
The sacred mountain shook, the sea of clouds churned, and a dark green thunder dragon descended carrying a god.
It was Emperor Fuxi who arrived.
"You want to use the calamity of the Great Desolation to drag the demon down to fill the hole?"
This was the first sentence Fuxi said when he entered the holy realm.
A compelling light flashed in his eyes, falling directly on Mingyu.
Obviously, Fuxi also didn't know the details of Mingyu's plan.
I was just shocked by his boldness and hurried over.
"Greetings, fellow Taoist!"
"Greetings, my royal brother!"
The Four Saints and Xuanyuan stood up to greet them.
Mingyu saw Fuxi coming and smiled, "Great God, please come!"
He stood up and made room for himself.
Fuxi was not polite and sat down casually.
In this way, all five Hunyuans stationed in Honghuang have arrived.
Mingyu also continued to talk about her plan: "Since we want to control the great catastrophe, we should not limit ourselves to the prehistoric world. If we want to have fun, let's have a big one!"
"Using the great catastrophe as bait, and drawing the heavens and earth as a prison, we are luring the devil into the trap!"
"Seal and intercept the fate of the demon god, promote the cohesion of the karma of the prehistoric world, thereby cultivating the power of the new generation of prehistoric world, and enthroning all gods to prepare for the future war!"
"I call this plan Conferred God."
"Conferred Godhood?"
Fuxi and others chewed on these two words softly.
I have to say, this plan is very bold!
"Yes, it is to be deified!"
Mingyu's eyes were smiling and her tone was firm.
The great oath between Taoism and demons, the return of the Demon Ancestor, and the rebellion of the Western religion are not Mingyu's ultimate goals.
It’s the Conferred God!
Who says that Conferred Gods can only be an internal struggle within the Xuanmen sect?
The Twelve Golden Immortals are in danger of death?
The Lord of the Three Realms has to go to the Crying Gate because no one wants to use him?
You're playing with the destiny of humanity, controlling the changes in the human era, and even making fun of the Empress?
What a low-level drama of deification!
If we want to play, let’s play big!
Mingyu's deep eyes shone with light, and he declared to everyone: "In this great calamity, I will be the master of the calamity and take charge of the Conferred Gods!"
In his hand, a large black millstone was turning, grinding something continuously.
It seems like the end of everything, the destination of all paths, and the end of the world.
Everything belongs to it, or rather, it devours everything.
When Fuxi and others saw the World-Destroying Grinder in Mingyu's hand, they all looked enlightened.
"No wonder you're looking for the Demon Ancestor. The Great Grinder of Destruction, a treasure that symbolizes the end and destruction, is the most suitable to lead the great catastrophe."
Fuxi supported his chin with his hand and looked at Mingyu with a satisfied look.
The third in command of Fengqi works with his mind, while the first and second in command work with their body.
Not bad, really good!
"We agreed to this plan of deification."
The five saints exchanged glances, smiled, and gave their approval.
"The position of the former Buddha is left to me, the deputy leader of the Chan Sect."
Yuanshi Tianzun turned around and said to Jie Yin.
This surprised Jie Yin a little: "Fellow Daoist, are you willing to give it up?"
The Taoist Master Ran Deng is also a veteran saint, and is a guest in the Zixiao Palace like them.
Although he has experienced many hardships, he has also disappointed Tianzun.
But after returning from being suppressed in Changyang Mountain, Randeng's determination to follow the Tao was not only not shaken, but became even more complete. His cultivation level improved further, and he had already killed two corpses.
This is a seed of supreme power.
Ran Deng was the deputy leader of the Chan sect from beginning to end. Taiyi Yuding and others often skipped classes, but still respected him.
From this we can see the attitude of Tianzun.
Tianzun said calmly, "Buddha is originally the Tao. If he joins the Buddhist sect and becomes a Buddha, then he will no longer be the deputy leader of my Chan Sect?"
He saw the changes in Randeng, and now that he had the chance, of course he had to help.
There is a distinction between east and west in the ancient world, but not in the Tao.
The eight hundred side doors can lead to the road to the Western world. Could it be that Yuanshi Tianzun would turn a blind eye to it?
With his vision and mind, he wouldn't be so pedantic.
You should know that at the Demon Realm Vest Conference, Tianzun is ranked first.
After receiving the confirmation from the Heavenly Lord, the two leaders of the Western religion clasped their hands together and praised it repeatedly.
What is missing from the West?
Lack of luck and merit?
lack!
The two big debt holders seem to be short of everything...
but!
What they lack more is talent.
High-quality talents!
Only when a large number of talents are invested in the construction of the West can the West be revitalized!
The Saint Zhunti narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Yuanshi, I wonder if other disciples of the Chan Sect have any interest in my Western Dharma? In addition to the Three Buddhahoods also have the Four Great Bodhisattvas!
In the worlds of Posha, Liuli, Moke, and so on, there are still many vacancies waiting for you..."
"Let's talk about it later!"
Before the Saint Zhunti could finish his words, Tianzun interrupted him with some displeasure.
You said you wanted to poach people right in front of me, the leader. Do you really think I'm easy to talk to?
But since everything was open and honest, Yuanshi did not make any final statements: "If it is destined, I will not stop it."
Again, vests are a good thing.
As long as it is suitable, it is possible to achieve that you are in me and I am in you.
If the deputy leader of the Chan sect can open a temple in the Buddhist sect, then it is not impossible to bring some Chan sect immortals with him to help out.
Similarly, Tongtian Jiaozhu also expressed similar ideas.
But compared to Tianzun, the leader is much more casual.
He said to the Sage Zhunti, "Fellow Daoist, you know that my Jie Sect doesn't have much in the way of other things, but it has many immortals. Since my chief disciple has already gone, is it okay to take a few of the naughty ones with me?"
Upon hearing this, the Saint Zhunti's face trembled: "A little bit?"
Tongtian suppressed the glimmer in his eyes and chuckled, "A few billion!"
Xuanyuan and Mingyu couldn't help laughing when watching this scene.
Jiejiao claims that all the immortals have come to pay homage to it, and Duobao is the current Buddha. If these junior brothers and sisters are brought in a little more, it will be hard to say who will be the leader of the Buddhist sect.
If we are not careful, the entire Buddhist community will become a branch of the Jiejiao sect!
Is the Jiejiao Western Office okay?
Zhao Gongming, Sanxiao and others who are currently busy preaching in the heavens and all realms would probably be very interested in this.
When it comes to preaching, Tongtian is the ultimate killer.
What could be faster and more effective than taking away someone else's inheritance and using it to start a new business?
Mingyu and others can think of this, and the Two Saints can certainly think of it too.
So Jie Yin directly locked the upper limit: "Three thousand at most!"
"Alright, then three thousand!"
Tongtian spread his hands, looking very regretful.
The two saints felt cheated.
But everyone present knew the reality.
Once the matter of Western religion was settled, the lead-up to the catastrophe was planned.
Everyone then continued to discuss the various aspects of the Dao-Demon Oath.
Make sure the pit is deep enough and hidden enough.
"How about the script of Buddha Enemy?"
Mingyu submitted a motion.
Everyone was curious: "What is the enemy of Buddha?"
Mingyu said, "Because one follows the path of true nature and attains enlightenment from cause to effect, he is called Tathagata. We, guided by Shakyamuni's enlightenment and the demons that blocked his path, have revived the Demon Ancestor and set off a great catastrophe."
Fuxi finished reading the script and applauded. "The Demon Realm has experienced a war between gods and demons, causing the new demon path to suffer heavy losses. The old demon path's master has vowed to return and use Buddhism to restore his rule. This opportunity is something the demon gods dedicated to breaking through the barriers of the prehistoric world will not let go."
Why do the sages of the demon world fight so hard in the demon world?
It is to make room for the "old demon ministers".
The original plan was for the Saints to create another pseudonym, but now it seems that this pit has been dug just right.
Daozu's old rival returns one day and causes a catastrophe.
It would be strange if those demons didn't come and wade into such muddy water.
"What about the Heaven and Earth Prison?"
Jun asked a key question.
The bait is ready, how to make the jar?
They must reduce the impact of the catastrophe on the prehistoric world itself.
Otherwise, you will end up making things worse and a catastrophe will shatter the heaven and earth, which will be a joke.
Mingyu's answer was: "The connection between heaven and earth will be broken!"
“Hiss~~”
Everyone gasped.
This is really cruel!
“Who will carry out this phase of the plan?”
Even Yuanshi Tianzun felt a headache.
Cutting off the connection between heaven and earth, whether it succeeds or not, is a big cause and effect, a big karma.
If something goes wrong, even a saint will not be able to withstand the backlash.
At this moment, Emperor Fuxi and Emperor Xuanyuan exchanged a glance, then said with a smile, "I will leave this matter to the Black Emperor of the Human Race!"
"The Human Black Emperor?"
Both the Second Saint and Tongtian had rather strange expressions on their faces.
