Fulu Rubik's Cube

Chapter 1092: Establishing Heaven (Part )

In Zhang Ke’s dream world, all matter has mass, including the changes in minds and the gazes.

In the famous "double-slit interference of light" experiment in 1801, human gaze can cause the spectrum to change.

At this moment, when Zhang Ke found that the Buddhist monks from the Western Regions had not spoken, his eyes filled with gray mist looked over.

And as he watched, the laws of the blue world changed immediately.

Two platinum-colored spots of light first appeared in the dim sky, and then both ends of the two spots of light extended nearly a thousand feet long, forming two slender platinum-colored rays of light that spanned the sky.

Then, the two thin rays of light appeared like tightly closed eyes slowly opening, and two arc-shaped cracks appeared in the sky.

Endless dark clouds gathered in these two cracks in the sky, like human pupils.

At this moment, the sky opened its eyes and looked down at all living things!

The moment the Eye of the Sky opened, tens of thousands of Gods and True Lords above the clouds instantly felt the endless pressure as if the sky was falling.

  In an instant, the mountains and rivers, wind and rain, and all living things in the world stopped making any sound.

Seeing this scene, Taoist Yukui's heart skipped a beat, realizing that this was the manifestation of Taoist Ruyi's intention.

But he could feel the endless pressure brought by the eyes that appeared in the sky, and he couldn't help but feel frightened.

Is this the power that a Taoist monarch should have?

While he was thinking, his sharp mind sensed two eye-like cracks in the sky that seemed to be casting a line of sight over him like a person turning his gaze.

But the dark clouds in the two cracks were rolling violently like the tides in a tsunami, which was frightening to look at.

Instinctively sensing danger, Taoist Yukui tried to dodge, but then he reacted and hesitated before leaving the cloud.

After all, I am a Taoist immortal. If I retreat just because of a look manifested by Zhang Ke's mind, I will never be able to stand up straight in front of him in the future.

Under the pressure of the Eye of the Sky, Taoist Jade Box turned his head to look at the thirty-six Buddhist masters not far above the clouds.

The Eye of the Sky was not targeting him and others, but this gaze was already too much for him to bear.

As for how the Western monks, who were the focus of attention, would deal with the overwhelming pressure, Taoist Yukui was really curious.

Moreover, he also had some dark thoughts in his mind.

In front of the Buddhist monks from the Western Regions, they had to humble themselves and act in a lowly manner. The comparison really made the Taoist monarchs lose face.

Since Daojun Ruyi wants to re-establish the Heavenly Court, the Western Regions should naturally be brought under his jurisdiction.

Even in the secular world, there is a saying that All under heaven belongs to the king, and all within the four seas are the king's subjects.

As the heavenly court in charge of the three realms, he wanted to see how Ruyi Daojun would deal with the resistance of Buddhism.

There are numerous large and small Zen temples in the Western Regions, and countless Buddhist masters, but at this moment, only the thirty-six venerables equivalent to the realm of Daojun from the ten major Buddhist temples and more than eight hundred Buddhist Arhats equivalent to the level of Taoist Yuanshen Zhenjun can stand above the clouds.

Among these Buddhist masters, the Mahayana master Puhua is the most prominent.

Originally, the White Camel Temple was the leader of the three thousand Zen temples in the Western Regions. However, more than a hundred years ago, the Zen Master Dazhi of the White Camel Temple was turned into a seven-inch statue in public by Zhang Ke, and the ban has not been lifted until now.

At the same time, the "Baituo Temple" was also demoted by Zhang Ke from the third-rank upper gate to the fourth-rank middle gate.

Jiang Fengchi of the Louvre Palace even led the Thunder Department, one of the eight groups of the Patrol Station, to arrest many eminent monks from the White Camel Temple. Now they are attaching scriptures to the Vajra Mountain in Little Penglai day and night.

Therefore, more than a hundred years ago, the Mahayana school has been the leader among the three thousand Zen temples in the Western Regions.

At this moment, when Venerable Puhua felt the gaze of the Eye of the Sky, he suddenly had a feeling that what was watching him from high in the sky was not the will of Daojun Ruyi, but the pressure of a world coming down on him.

Venerable Puhua did not dare to be negligent. He recited the Buddha's name loudly and then gave orders.

"Amitabha, all the abbots of the Zen temples, please chant the six-syllable mantra with me!"

Following the command from Venerable Puhua, the thirty-six venerables and eight hundred arhats above the clouds responded in unison.

"Good! Good!"

"Amitabha, I will follow the Venerable's command!"

Immediately afterwards, an endless and grand whispering sound rang out between heaven and earth.

"Om Mani Padme Hum!"

"Om Mani Padme Hum!"

"Om Mani Padme Hum!"

Yu Kui and many other Taoist masters quietly and quietly moved away from the Western Regions monks to the clouds hundreds of miles away.

The Buddhist monks in front of him were obviously going to confront Daojun Ruyi. He didn't want to be implicated, so he naturally stayed away from them.

However, they were also very curious about how Ruyi Daojun planned to deal with this situation.

Is it a war?

Or persuade?

Above the clouds, the eight hundred Arhats gathered with thirty-six venerables as the core, sitting cross-legged in the clouds, closing their eyes and chanting the six-syllable mantra in a low voice.

"Om Mani Padme Hum!"

"Om Mani"

The chanting of the monks was not loud, but the sound of the Tao that echoed between heaven and earth was as loud as the sound of a huge bell.

Grand, majestic, solemn and serious waves of sound resound throughout the universe.

One after another, illusory golden six-syllable mantras burst out from the mouths of the Arhats.

As the six-syllable mantra was uttered, the bodies of nearly a thousand monks slowly glowed with golden light like the sun. A series of golden halos overlapped and intertwined with each other, with the thirty-six venerables as the core, revealing thirty-six huge illusory golden lotuses.

These thirty-six golden lotuses were connected and intertwined with each other, eventually forming a huge golden lotus that was as solid as a substance, three hundred feet in radius, brilliant and glorious.

At the same time, in the western region of the Azure Realm, countless large and small Zen temples that had been prepared long ago, under the command of their respective abbots, led countless believers to chant the six-character mantra of Buddhism together.

"Om Mani Padme Hum!"

"Om Mani"

Buddhism is different from Taoism. It cultivates the power of merit and has a complete operating system from top to bottom.

Even among different monasteries, their skills can be integrated with each other, and after countless years of accumulation, their use of the power of merit far exceeds that of Taoism.

At this time, under the guidance of many Zen temples, countless believers in the Western Regions chanted the Six-Character Mantra of Buddhism at the same time.

Looking down from above, one can see that the entire area of ​​the Western Region is gradually manifesting an illusory golden lotus vision.

The golden lotus above the clouds gradually merged with the golden lotus in the Western Regions. Corresponding to each other, the golden lotus above the clouds emitted endless golden glow and continued to extend outward.

In just a few breaths, the sky within a radius of ten thousand miles was completely covered by the golden lotus shadow.

When the golden lotus shadow almost covered the sky, Venerable Puhua took out a brocade box from his sleeve with a solemn expression.

Then he opened the brocade box and removed the red cloth, revealing a nine-inch golden seated statue of Tathagata in the box.

Venerable Puhua placed the seated statue of Tathagata on the brocade box with a solemn expression.

A wisp of sandalwood rose up, and in the curling green smoke, the expression of the seated Tathagata statue seemed a little more lively.

Venerable Puhua calmed his mind and leaned over to bow three times to the seated statue of Tathagata.

After three bows, Venerable Puhua prayed in a deep voice.

"Buddha above, please listen to the words of the believers:

There are now non-believers who want to re-establish the Heavenly Palace and hinder the spread of Buddhism.

For the sake of future generations of Buddhism, the believers hereby implore the Buddha to bestow his majesty upon these unbelievers!"

Venerable Puhua prayed three times in succession, and the sound of the great way he uttered became louder each time.

When it came to the third prayer, the sound of thousands of thunders resounded between heaven and earth, and spread throughout the three realms.

And with his three prayers, the golden lotus visions that appeared above the clouds and in the western regions also bloomed with endless golden light, and this endless light gradually merged into the seated statue of Tathagata.

Then, the vague shadow of an indescribably huge statue of a seated Buddha with eyes closed appeared in the sky.

In comparison, the Eye of the Sky manifested by Zhang Ke's mind is not even half the size of the shadow of the seated statue of Tathagata.

"Oh~~"

Venerable Puhua let out a long sigh, turned his head to look at Daojun Ruyi who was standing in the void in the distance. There was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, and a smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

The nine-inch seated Buddha statue has no rank and is the most precious treasure of Buddhism in the Azure Realm.

It is said that it was sculpted by Mahakasyapa, a great disciple of Buddha, himself, and it embodies the beliefs of countless Buddhist believers.

By gathering the power of faith and aspiration, this treasure can manifest the virtual image of the Buddha and embody the infinite power of Buddhism.

In the history of the Azure Realm, this treasure had only shown its power once, but that one time alone was enough to make the Dao Master-level demons retreat, never daring to invade again.

The Azure Realm has been controlled by Taoism since ancient times, but why was it that even when Taoism was at its most powerful, it was unable to drive Buddhism out of the Western Regions?

In addition to the great power and unity of Buddhism, this nine-inch seated statue of Tathagata is also an important reason.

However, this seated statue of the Tathagata is not particularly powerful when it has not succeeded in gathering the power of faith and vows. Therefore, Venerable Puhua has always been worried that Ruyi Daojun would interfere with the casting of the spell.

Unexpectedly, during the quarter of an hour from the time the Buddha statue was brought out and the power of faith and vows was gathered, Ruyi Daojun did not interfere at all.

"Haha, Ruyi Daojun, oh Ruyi Daojun, you are only lucky enough to have this achievement, your foundation is really as shallow as paper!"

Reverend Puhua mocked himself inwardly, then shouted in a deep voice:

“Although my Buddha is merciful, he also has the power of a diamond thunderbolt.

Buddha, please help to subdue the demons and monsters!"

Following the mighty sound of thunder, the shadow of the seated statue of Tathagata, which had its eyes closed in the sky, slowly opened its eyes, revealing a peaceful, calm and kind look.

Then, an almost endless, warm, soft, golden glow like the warm sun bloomed around the shadow of the seated Tathagata statue.

At this moment, the night sky instantly turned into day.

Taoist Master Yukui had seen records about the seated statue of Tathagata in the sect's records, but had never actually seen it.

At this moment, when the seated statue of Tathagata appeared, one suddenly felt an overwhelming pressure that was no less powerful than the majesty of Ruyi Daojun.

"Hiss~, this Western Buddhist sect really has some background!"

As his mind turned, he saw the eyes of the phantom of the seated statue of Tathagata looking down from above.

Then the peaceful face of the sitting statue of Tathagata turned slightly serious and revealed a hint of anger.

Obviously, Zhang Ke, who was being noticed, had a seven-colored rainbow bridge under his feet, colorful clouds of celebration rising behind him, purple lightning like an umbrella above his head, mountains and rivers covering his body, and a nine-curtain crown on his head.

Before Yukui Daojun could think more, he saw the shadow of the seated statue of Tathagata in the sky, clasping his hands together in front of his chest, slowly bending the index finger of his right hand, then flipping it downward, with the index finger pointing downward, pressing down towards Zhang Ke who was standing in the air.
