Chapter 25 The Essence of Buddhism

Shakyamuni Nyorai Buddha appeared in the sky with a group of Buddhist disciples, just standing opposite the gods and immortals in the heavenly court, the Buddha's light shone, forming a huge golden wheel of merit standing above everyone's heads, shining in the sky of the underworld.

"There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south!" Under the golden wheel of merit, Shakyamuni led a group of Buddhist disciples to fold their hands and chant the Buddha's name to the gods and immortals in the heavenly court opposite. "I've seen all the Taoist friends!

"The Buddha is polite!" the Jade Emperor naturally did not dare to slack off, and took the lead in returning the salute.

At this moment, Yuan Lei also came to the Jade Emperor's side, looking at Shakyamuni indifferently. Yuan Lei was not angry when Shakyamuni rescued the generals and Yinggou just now, nor did he show great anger because of Duobao's betrayal, but he looked calm and looked calm.

Under the hands of Sakyamuni, the generals and Yinggou still survived, but they looked very miserable, covered with bruises and incomplete skin. At this moment, he was standing with the panting clansmen, watching the competition between the two forces in the sky with a panicked expression.

At this moment, the generals and Yinggou both looked very lonely and depressed, they knew that their action might have become an excuse for these two major forces to enter the prefecture, and it was a good excuse. The ambition of the generals and Yinggou also disappeared without a trace at this moment, feeling their own insignificance and humility, and their hearts were full of sadness.

"The Buddha is so Yaxing, he actually brought a group of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas out of the nest to visit the Heavenly Mansion, it really surprised me to wait!" Yuan Lei looked calm, looked at Sakyamuni without squinting and said.

Shakyamuni's face froze, although he had made up his mind to betray the sect for his own way, but he still had a lot of worries about meeting Yuan Lei again, and he had thought many times about what the scene of meeting Yuan Lei would be, but he never thought that his reunion with Yuan Lei would be so calm. Appears tepid.

"The emperor said there, my Buddhist trip is to kill demons and demons in the underworld, return the underworld to the bright and prosperous world, and maintain the stability of the six realms of reincarnation. Shakyamuni quickly regained his composure and said with a smile on his face.

"In that case, the Buddha can go back!" Yuan Lei's voice was indifferent. It's like not eating the fireworks of the world. "The matter of the underworld has been resolved by the Heavenly Court, and it is not the turn of other forces to intervene. ”

"The underworld is the land of the Three Realms, when did it become the land of heaven, we have never heard of it, and please ask the emperor to be cautious!" Shakyamuni replied with a light smile.

Looking at Yuan Lei and Sakyamuni arguing with each other, the faces of the Jade Emperor and the others also changed, and they secretly thought in their hearts. "This is really a golden lotus with a tongue, and it is so eloquent, if it is me to talk to it. I'm afraid it has long been left behind. ”

Although Taishang Laojun seemed to be there, his deep gaze never left Sakyamuni's body, and unconsciously, a killing intent appeared in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

Our Lady of Jin Ling and other sect disciples all looked at Shakyamuni with an angry face, and they were a little unacceptable to Duobao's betrayal until this moment, if it weren't for their own identity. I am afraid that they have already come forward to question Shakyamuni.

Liu'er and Long Yunzi came behind Yuan Lei, and Liu'er looked at the Buddhist disciples in front of him with stark eyes. His expression gradually became solemn, but when he saw a familiar and unfamiliar figure, Liu'er's expression instantly became unkind, and anger flashed in his eyes. The person who can make Liu'er react like this, except for the burning lamp that almost sent Liu'er to the gods, there is no one else.

Burning the lamp led the disciples of the Fear of Liusun, Manjushri, Fuxian, Cihang and other exposition disciples to abandon the darkness and turn to the light. Transferred to Buddhism, was named one of the three Buddhas of the past Buddha, the first of the seven ancient Buddhas, the status of transcendence, in the Buddhism second only to Shakyamuni. This arrangement made the lamp feel the sincerity of receiving and procuring. That little scruple in my heart disappeared. At the same time, the lantern was lit because of the twenty-four Dinghai pearls that transformed the twenty-four Buddhist heavens, which made up for the luck of the Buddhism, so it also obtained great merit, and took advantage of it to cut off a corpse, and finally got his wish to become a quasi-saint. This made Randen naturally die for the Buddha's work, and he didn't dare to have two hearts.

On the other hand, the fearful grandson who betrayed the teachings with the burning lamp was also named one of the ancient seven Buddhas, the ancient Buddha of the fearful Liusun, enjoying the great luck of Buddhism, and also taking advantage of this to behead a corpse, relying on the strength of the quasi-saint Fearing Liusun also gained a foothold in Buddhism.

Only Manjushri, Fuxian and Cihang, the three second-generation disciples of the teachings, had bad luck, and after several rounds of reincarnation, they were able to achieve positive results and become Buddhist Bodhisattvas, and they were difficult to behead a corpse. In his last reincarnation, Cihang turned away from a man and became a woman, saving suffering and distress for the Guanyin Bodhisattva.

In addition to the six quasi-saints of Buddhism, such as Shakyamuni, Randeng, Fear Liusun, Manjushri, Fuxian and Cihang, there are also Medicine Master, Maitreya, and Lu Zhuan, who incarnates the Great Ri Nyorai, who are also quasi-saints. In addition, the other five disciples who were introduced, the Vibha Corpse Daoist, the Corpse Abandoned Daoist, the Vaishaba Daoist, the Kuna Hanmuni Daoist, and the Kasya-Leaf Daoist were also on the verge of breaking through, and were in retreat and cultivation in Blissful Heaven with the Guidance and Zhun Ti, and once they broke through the barrier, the Buddha Gate was really full of talents, and the quasi-saints were all over the place.

Buddhism with the help of the great prosperity of the heavens, overnight quasi-saints everywhere, this kind of prosperity is incomparable even in the Lich period, only the three clans in the Longhan period can overwhelm one. The prosperity of Buddhism is even more than that of the sect that was known as the "Ten Thousand Immortals Come to the Dynasty", and there is a faint atmosphere of the first major force in heaven and earth.

, the three teachings of man, expoundment, and interception are compared with Buddhism, which is really a heaven and an underground. The sect is a little better, at least Yuan Lei supports the façade, and Liu'er also beheads a corpse to become a quasi-saint, Wudang, Turtle Spirit and Wuyun Immortal are also very hopeful to use the luck of the world to cut off a corpse, even if it is not as good as Buddhism, it will not be too inferior.

On the contrary, people are going to be too lonely about the two religions, and there is no need to say much about the human teaching, Lao Tzu now has only one disciple of Xuandu, and he follows Lao Tzu all the year round to recite the Huang Ting, and he is rarely born, even if he beheads the corpse and becomes a quasi-saint, the human religion is only a quasi-saint, and compared with Buddhism, it is also a drop in the bucket. And the exposition of the teachings is even worse, losing one-third of the disciples overnight, and these disciples are all beheaded in Buddhism, so that Yuan Shi's face is bleak;

This situation made Lao Tzu and Yuan Shi very anxious, once Buddhism took advantage of the momentum of great prosperity to advance eastward, the two religions did not have the power to fight back. Once the East is lost, the fortune of heaven and earth will soon flow to the West, and the prosperity of the West will be even more difficult to stop. Fortunately, the West is congenitally insufficient, and there is no treasure to suppress luck, but it makes Lao Tzu and Yuan Shi breathe a sigh of relief, otherwise they would not be able to sit still like now, and they would have been like ants on a hot pot.

This time, Sakyamuni led the Buddha to almost descend to the underworld, except for the Great Day Rulai and Maitreya Buddha to guard the Lingshan Da Lei Yin Temple, a total of seven quasi-saints came, and this kind of lineup was enough to shock the world in the Longhan period.

The Longhan period was the most chaotic era of the flood famine, and in such a chaotic era, the great gods such as Sanqing, Jieyin, Zhun Ti, and Nuwa could only choose to escape from the world and find a hidden place to hide. However, it is not easy to really escape from the world, if it is not for the secret help of Heavenly Dao, they will not be able to escape.

During the Longhan period, the quasi-saints were all over the place, and there were more than forty quasi-saints of the dragon, phoenix, and unicorn clans combined, plus some scattered quasi-saints, the number of quasi-saints exceeded sixty or seventy, not counting those quasi-saints who were hidden in the world, otherwise there would be more. And in the Lich Period, even if you count the six saints, the number of quasi-saints is only more than thirty, which is only half of the Longhan period. It can be seen how prosperous the Longhan period was.

"Difu Pingxin Niangniang is one of the six heavenly courts enshrined by the Dao Ancestor, it is reasonable that the underworld is subordinate to the heavenly court, and the Buddha must not pretend to be confused!" Yuan Lei said bluntly.

"Pingxin Niangniang is indeed one of the six emperors of the Heavenly Court, but because of this, the underworld cannot be placed under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court, this reason is lame!" Shakyamuni replied with a calm expression.

"Is the Buddha going to make a move in the affairs of the underworld, and not being the enemy of the heavenly court?" Yuan Lei's face changed, his brows furrowed, and he said impatiently.

"This is also a mistake, my Buddhism aims to purify all sentient beings, and the yin souls of the underworld are all destined people who can be crossed, and my Buddhism should open the door of convenience and transform the soul of the underworld!

"Nan Wu Amitabha!" Shakyamuni's voice fell, and many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas behind him chanted the Buddha's name together, and the Buddha light over the underworld shone brightly again.

"The Buddha really has a sharp mouth, and his tongue is like a spring, and I can be regarded as having opened my eyes!" Yuan Lei said lightly. As soon as these words fell, Yuan Lei's expression changed, and a murderous aura arose. "Don't talk nonsense, just let me see what you are capable of, dare to shout so loudly in front of me, hum!"

Regarding Duobao's apostasy, although Yuan Lei seems to be very open-minded, he can't accept it in his heart. The reason why he talked so much with Shakyamuni before was just to see if he really saw it, but after a conversation, Yuan Lei found that his heart became impetuous, very unhappy, and if he didn't vent it, it would inevitably affect his Dao heart.

Yuan Lei's sudden burst of killing intent made Shakyamuni look awkward, and he suddenly found that his senior brother was very concerned about his apostasy.

"Hey, after all, it is impossible to escape the war, and after this battle, the grievances between us will be written off, and we will not be involved with each other!" said Shakyamuni with a complicated expression. (To be continued......)
