The Western Heavenly Bodhisattva was busy expanding the power of Buddhism to the fortress territory, and the Heavenly Sanqing was not slacking off, and both of them were most concerned about the scope of their influence.

With this directly controlled sphere of influence, it can be more conducive to influencing the heavenly court, and there will naturally be enshrinements and so on.

Sanqing comes from one place, although they also have their own independent places to worship, but people usually worship the three of them together, so in this matter, Sanqing is very consistent, everything involves this matter, often plan together, so every time they get together, they talk about this matter.

The sudden appearance of a Zen temple named after Guanyin attracted the attention of Taishang Laojun, who gradually felt that Buddhism was vaguely taking further action.

Lao Jun secretly said in his heart: "Guanyin's actions should not be underestimated, the Zen temple named after Guanyin is not in Nanzhan Buzhou, nor in Xiniuhe Zhou, but at the border of the two continents, it seems to be pointed." ”

If you want to practice the Mahayana Sutra, the news has already reached Lao Jun's ears, what kind of doctrine the Mahayana Sutra is, Lao Jun also knew when he preached to each other with the ancient Buddha of the burning lamp.

There are many cases such as this, and there seem to be more and greater attempts behind it to subtly influence such behavior.

Whether he should make plans as soon as possible, he is not completely sure, after all, it is a big deal, so he decided to immediately go and discuss this matter with Yuan Shi and Lingbao Tianzun to see what they think about it.

So Taishang Laojun invited Yuan Shi Tianzun and Lingbao Tianzun to gather in the Shangqing Tianmiluo Palace, because of the busy affairs, it has been a long time since the last Sanqing gathering.

At this time, the most vocal is the Taishang Laojun, the Taishang Laojun is in contact with the heavenly court most frequently and closely, the three Qings are in charge of the same door, the division of labor is different, the old monarch often acts in the heavenly court, frequent travel to the heavenly court, the Jade Emperor always consults with him whenever he encounters important matters, before Sun Wukong made a big fuss in the heavenly palace, and the Jade Emperor also invited the old monarch to come and subdue in person.

The Heavenly Court Immortal Class also entered the Daomen, all of them were Laojun's protégés, Yuan Shi Tianzun selected the immortals of the Dao and preached the law of the Dao in the Miluo Palace, and Lingbao Tianzun selected and cultivated protégés for the Daomen, and passed on their Dao Methods, in order to reuse them.

Sanqing gathered, Lao Jun first reminded him of the last time he came to Antian, and then said some suspicious things he had seen recently, especially when there was a Buddhist sect asking Heaven to send Li Jing to personally go to catch monsters with that Lingshan, you come and go.

Later, there is a Guanyin Zen temple between Nanzhan Buzhou and West Niu He Zhou out of thin air. And the Buddha was busy cultivating the new Dharma, and asked the two Heavenly Venerables what they thought of this.

Yuan Shi Tianzun and Lingbao Tianzun should know that if you come to Antian, that Yuan Shi and Lingbao Tianzun are the spirit of opening the sky, today I listened to Taishang Laojun to tell about the recent things, before and after contacting, I understood a few points after listening.

The two Tianzun now belong to the same Sanqing, and respect Tianxing, and they are concerned about matters involving the Daomen.

These three purifications are the last thing they want to see the Buddha Sect want to compete with the Taoist Sect This kind of thing really happens.

The Jade Emperor of the Heavenly Court has the heavens, the earthly realm and the underworld, all of which are vast places, and if he wants to send scriptures to his own land, the Jade Emperor has no intention of interfering.

And the three Qings are different, although the three Qings are noble immortals, Mingli has no job and no business, the offerings are all from the believers, there are more believers in Buddhism, there are fewer believers, this is a contradictory thing, so Sanqing is particularly concerned about this kind of thing, and when there is a slim tendency, he wants to try his best to stop it.

Although the Nanzhan Buzhou and the West Niu He Continent were originally nominally under the jurisdiction of the West Heavenly Rulai, in fact, the South Zhan Bu Continent is the land of the vast number of believers of the Daomen, and even the West Niu Hezhou, where the Ling Mountain is located, has many places to worship the Sanqing, and the Sanqing also intends to expand the actual scope of the Daomen in the West Niu Hezhou, in order to prosper.

Yuan Shi Tianzun is in charge of the Great Dao Law, the Great Dao of the world, no one can escape its eyes, after listening to what Lao Jun said, he said: "This whole world, all belong to the mixed yuan, there is no difference between you and me, but people are divided by groups, by doors, since the beginning of the fight there are people who want to occupy more, only then did the difference between you and me be born." “

Taishang Laojun and Lingbao Tianzun nodded, but did not express their opinions for the time being.

Yuan Shi Tianzun then said: "According to what Lao Jun said, I think that this Western Heaven seems to be going to make a big move here, and it must be to spread the Dharma widely. Buddhism may want to send scriptures from west to east to Nanzhan Buzhou in the name of preaching scriptures, and maybe they will also take this opportunity to remove the obstacles of Xiniu Hezhou and occupy the position of bishop of Nanzhan Buzhou, which is tantamount to going deep into the hinterland of Daomen's painstaking management and replacing it. ”

Seeing that the two nodded in agreement, Yuan Shi Tianzun continued, "Last time, there were two actions of the Buddha Gate, and the prestige of the Buddha Gate in the Heavenly Court increased greatly for a while, and the Jade Emperor also obviously favored the Buddha Gate, and there was a sense of unity. Once the Jade Emperor originally elected by the Daomen is biased towards the Buddha Gate, the consequence will naturally be a reduction in the number of qi of the Daomen and the Daomen. ”

Lingbao opened his mouth and said: "What Yuan Shi said is extremely true, since we are for the Dao Sect, and there are so many disciples, if we don't seek land, how can we support these many children?"

Among the three Qings, there are many disciples taught by Lingbao, heaven and earth, people, gods, birds and beasts, all have their own disciples, and there are many of them.

Taishang Laojun said: "What I said is that conniving at others to expand at will is not a long-term plan for the prosperity of my Daomen. ”

"Today's Western Heaven is like a world, with vast magical powers, boundless mana, and many disciples, and after this time to quell the chaos with the heavenly court, it has established a very high prestige, which has laid the foundation for the future expansion of the sect. Yuan Shi Tianzun looked at the two and said

Taishang Laojun replied: "Yes, what Yuan Shi said is on the point. Heaven and earth, if it is not a fight, the division of the scope of this control, one is to see the Jade Emperor divided, and the other is to see who can hold it first, it will belong to whom, if I don't accept it, others go first, and you can get it. ”

The two nodded, and Taishang Laojun continued, "And if you want to expand, you also want to go from near to far, step by step. That Xitian wants to expand the actual territory of Buddhism, and has already laid down the Guanyin Monastery in the key place, not for stationing, but in order to establish a powerful momentum there, which is connected with Lingshan in a line, showing a trend of echoing each other, and has pointed out the target direction of Xitian this time, which is that Nanzhan Buzhou. ”

"As the two Celestial Beings have said, there are all kinds of signs that if we seem to want to spread the Dharma widely, we can stop its expansion by arranging people in the direction where it intends to expand, and at the same time, we can send people to places that have not been touched by the forces of the Western Heavens to establish our own sphere of control. The West Heavenly Immortal is actively arranging everywhere, although it has not yet involved the land of you and me, but the scope of the world has been determined, and there will be no you and me if there is him, if it continues, it will not be conducive to our future plans. ”

Lingbao Tianzun saw that Yuan Shi Tianzun and Taishang Laojun had already made their words clear, so he said: "It's the truth, we should take some measures."

"It is necessary to take some measures to deal with it as soon as possible, so as not to develop into an uncontrollable passive situation. ”

Yuan Shi is the head of the Three Qings, and the affairs of the other two Qings are also his business, so he naturally agrees with what the two of them say.

Lao Jun said to the two: "Such a big thing can not be done by me alone, and it is difficult to achieve it without the help of the two." ”

Yuan Shi Tianzun smiled: "Although you are planning, you know the actual situation of heaven and earth most clearly, I think this matter can only be solved if you have a plan, if we can help, I will support you." Lingbao Tianzun also nodded.

Yuan Shi asked Lao Jun to come up with a specific idea.

"This countermeasure is also simple, there are mountains and rivers on this road, as well as large and small countries, I think we will be on the critical road from Niuhe Continent to Nanzhan Buzhou, settle people, or among the countries on the road that must pass, send my disciples to build up my Dao Sect Qi first. ”

Both Yuan Shi and Lingbao completely agreed with Lao Jun's opinion, and each was willing to contribute to support Lao Jun.

Lao Jun continued: "It's just that I have to find some suitable candidates, but there are some difficulties. ”

Lingbao laughed loudly: "Oh, what's so difficult about this? You and I have to choose some people, and we will handle it separately." ”

Lao Jun waved his hand and said: "Brother Dao, some measures seem simple, but it is necessary to select the best candidates, and it is a little easier to place people in places that others have not reached, as long as they are protégés such as me, they can be recommended." It's just that the candidate for the important place that blocks the expansion of the Western Heaven is very responsible. ”

Lingbao frowned and asked, "How can a very person take responsibility?" ”

"Brother Dao, think about it, you and I have found that the West Heaven has the intention of expansion, and the West Heaven is a vast person with magical powers, and now there is Guanyin in the two realms of direct layout, think that Guanyin practice is vast, just her jade bottle is extremely powerful, I bet with her back then, even my gossip Dan furnace lost her treasure bottle layer, if a mortal fairy is arranged in his intended expansion road, it is of little use. ”

Lingbao nodded, and said in a deep voice: "What Brother Dao said is also true, if you arrange ordinary people to go, there will be no reciprocal effect. ”

Lao Jun continued: "This person must first be a person in my Dao Sect, and his mana must be powerful, and he must be able to settle in the earth realm before he can be reused, and there are very few such people in heaven and earth. ”

Lingbao smiled: "I have many disciples, so I can find someone who has the ability." ”

Lao Jun sneered: "Is there anyone among your disciples who can be compared to Guanyin?"

"This ......," Lingbao was silent and shook his head.

Lao Jun also stroked his beard, looked into the distance, and stopped speaking.

The three of them all know that Guanyin has taken refuge in the Buddha Gate, and the mana is growing, very strong, all over the world, who doesn't know its name now, except for the gods Sanqing, such as the Buddha, who can dare to say that it is comparable to it?

The three of them were silent, each thinking about their own thoughts, and Yuan Shi Tianzun broke the silence and said, "I have a candidate, or I can take on this important task." ”

When the other two heard this, they became energetic, their eyes lit up, and they both turned their inquiring eyes to Yuan Shi Tianzun.

Yuan Shi Tianzun said slowly: "This person has very deep qualifications and great mana. ”

When Taishang Laojun and Lingbao Tianzun heard this, they couldn't help but be curious, thinking about who it was, and Lingbao Tianzun asked, "Who is it?"

"This person is the ancestor of the earth immortals, mixed names and the same king as the world, called Zhenyuan Daxian, he is born with the earth, except for heaven and earth, he should belong to him. ”

When the other two Qings heard this, they suddenly realized, and they all nodded again and again, knowing that there was this person, who was the ancestor of the earth immortals.

Yuan Shi Tianzun continued: "It's just that this person stands at ease in the earth realm, and he doesn't like to participate in the affairs of the world, and I only met him when the heavens and the earth were opened, and I have not had any contact with him since. If you can include this person in our Dao Gate, it is the best choice to be able to guard one side. ”

Taishang Laojun and Lingbao Tianzun both said: "Reasonable." ”

Lingbao Tianzun asked: "Although this Earth Immortal Ancestor has heard of it for a long time, he is a strange figure, and he has never seen him recently, and he has not had too many allusions. ”

Yuan Shi Tianzun smiled and said: "This person is an immortal who opens the heavens, with far-reaching qualifications, if you want to invite this person into my Daomen, you and I have to come out, since his name is Zhenyuan, I want to meet him in person."

When Taishang Laojun heard this, he said, "This matter is really going to trouble Yuan Shi Tianzun, even although the two of us have a friendship, I don't dare to say that I will definitely be able to pull this person into my Dao Gate." ”

Yuan Shi Tianzun nodded, and said to the two, "In this case, I will go for a trip, you two have many disciples, and now you can arrange candidates all over the place, so as to make my Dao sect stable." ”

Lingbao Tianzun and Taishang Laojun saw that Yuan Shi Tianzun was willing to go in person, nodded and said yes, the matter of finding the ancestor of the earth immortals will be handled by Yuan Shi Tianzun, and the other two will consider the placement of available candidates, say goodbye to Sanqing, and go back to the palace to arrange.
