For the Buddha's inquiry, the King of the Earth Bodhisattva is not as awe-inspiring as other Bodhisattvas, although he is already a Bodhisattva, his temperament is much milder than before, but compared to other smiling Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, there is still a bit of a breath that no one can enter.

"Buddha, in the opinion of a disciple, the last apologetic, it is better to slow down a little before making a decision!"

Seeing that everyone showed either surprised or questioning looks, Jizo continued: "Since Emperor Gou Chen has promised the Buddha, I think there will be some action in the near future, and when the time comes, perhaps the most suitable person for the protector will appear in our field of vision. ”

If the Buddha glanced at Dizang lightly, he knew very well that this Dizang Bodhisattva was the mouthpiece of Emperor Gou Chen, since this person said so, presumably the Emperor had already begun to look for candidates for Buddhism, and it is estimated that soon, some demon kings in the earth fairy world will make big moves.

"That being the case, the last candidate for the protector, let's not make a conclusion for the time being, this era has just begun, and I can still afford to wait for a hundred years and a thousand years!"

The Buddha opened his mouth, and the discussion of the Journey to the West in Buddhism came to an end, and the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas retreated and left one after another after bowing with their hands together.

The Buddha and the Bodhisattva are the pillars of the foundation of Buddhism, and most of them are located in various parts of Xiniu Hezhou, and they should not be left for too long.

However, the Jizo Bodhisattva did not leave with the others, but stayed quietly outside the gate of the seven-story floating temple, clasping his hands in front of the Buddha.

"Buddha, the disciple is leaving. ”

"But Emperor Gou Chen has a new arrangement for you?" The Buddha's heart sank, at this critical moment when the Journey to the West was about to begin, he didn't want Jizo to leave.

"No, the disciple once listened to the sermon under the emperor's seat, and also listened to the Dharma under the Buddha's seat, and now the immortal path and the Buddha's way are integrated, and the disciple finally understands how to go in the future. ”

"The way of the disciple is not in the Lingshan, but in the underworld!"

When he heard this, he thought about it, but his eldest disciple, Guanyin Bodhisattva, asked with a little eagerness and curiosity in his eyes, "Could it be that the junior brother still wants to change to the path of the netherworld?"

There may not be much conflict between the immortal law and the Buddha, and it is not impossible for the two to practice together, but the law of the ghost path is definitely not compatible with the Buddha, and she does not think that these three methods can be practiced together.

"Not really!"

Jizo's expression finally had other expressions, with a hint of compassion and even fearlessness.

"As the saying goes, if I don't go to hell, who will go to hell ......"

The magnificent voice resounded in all directions in the central Pure Land World, like rolling thunder, and was heard by countless Buddhist monks.

"Disciple Jizo, make a great wish today, hell is not empty, vow not to become a Buddha, if you violate this oath, never preach!"

As soon as these words came out, the wind and clouds suddenly surged, the heavens and the earth changed color, and even in this central world, there was a golden light of merit sprinkled in the sky, and it directly sank into the body of Jizo.

This is the great wish that has been recognized by the will of the universe, and under the infusion of this golden light of merit, the breath of Jizo continues to rise, until in the end, it has a faint power that can change the rules of heaven and earth.

The monks who possess this power have a common name in the Three Realms, and that is...... Taiyi Golden Immortal!

"Taiyi Golden Immortal...... Make a big wish, you can directly become a Taiyi Golden Immortal?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva was directly stunned, since the birth of the universe, all the great powers of the Taiyi Realm have been born from nature, and she has never heard of an acquired monk who has reached this realm through the method of cultivation, and now, today, she actually saw a strong golden immortal with her own eyes, and through the great wish, she has the will power that the Taiyi Golden Immortal can only have, how can this not shock her.

Even the Buddha was stunned for a moment, but then, he shook his head again.

"It's not that simple!"

The Buddha looked at Jizo with a complicated expression, "Your strength comes from the Great Wish, from the will of the universe or the recognition of the Heavenly Dao, before the Great Great Wish is completely completed, your Taiyi Realm strength is actually a mirror, and the Heavenly Dao can be withdrawn at any time!"

"That's true, but no matter what, the disciple has at least taken the first step, hasn't he?" Jizo showed a rare smile on his face, although this Taiyi Realm strength is very unstable, but in any case, this is his way, at least, he has taken the most difficult first step.

"But if you take this step, your freedom will be confined to the Netherworld, and if the grand wish is not completed, it will be difficult for you to take another step......"

Speaking of this, the Buddha shook his head with some pity, "You should know very well how difficult this great wish is to accomplish, it can be said that it is impossible to realize it at all, if not, it is impossible to make the will of the universe feel it and be recognized by the Heavenly Dao!

Jizo was silent, and finally let out a long sigh, "Buddha, you were born as a god, but you are a born Taiyi Golden Immortal, so naturally you don't understand the hardships and sufferings of our acquired souls, who calculate and fight for that blessing and for that little bit of cultivation resources. ”

"Although the Great Wish restricts my freedom, at least in the underworld, I have the strength of the Taiyi Realm, although in the end it may be just a mirror, but at least, this is at least a hope, it is the first promotion path with clear hope for the beings of the Three Realms, this hope may be slim, but it is countless times better than the road ahead of a dark road with no end in sight, this alone is worth my unswerving walk!"

The Buddha was silent, but the Guanyin Bodhisattva and the second disciple Jin Chanzi beside him couldn't stop nodding, looking like they agreed with Jizo's opinion.

After all, in the Three Realms of the universe where the road ahead of this Taiyi Realm is cut off, even if it is only a little bit of light, it is worth their best to fight for it.

It's not an acquired soul, and they don't know how crazy the acquired monk can be for the high Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm!

The Buddha pondered for a moment, and finally nodded, "Although I don't understand your way, I won't stop it...... It's just that although my Buddhism is strong, I can't interfere with the underworld, and if you want to enter the underworld, I'm afraid it's not easy!"

At this time, the Jizo Bodhisattva, although he relied on the great wish to temporarily obtain the approval of the will of the universe, was endowed with the will power that Taiyi Jinxian only had, but in the eyes of the Buddha, the Jizo at this time was still too immature, if the Emperor Houtu, the master of the underworld, did not agree to him to enter the underworld, his great ambition will no longer have a trace of hope to be completed!

"Buddha Xie cares, in this matter, the emperor has paved the way for his disciples, and the lord of the underworld will not stop the disciples in the matter of entering the underworld!"

When Jizo said this, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

It's nice to have a backer behind you!
