This devil can't get through

Chapter 478
Unknowingly, the original troubled times of the princes have become the Warring States Period in which the Seven Heroes contend for hegemony.

Unfortunately, in this era, Buddhism's grand plan to spread the Dharma to the East failed again.

Those King Kong and Arhat protectors who were able to penetrate the plateau west of Nanzhan Buzhou seemed so futile when they encountered the army of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period and the wisdom that was continuously refined in the war.

It is true that Buddhism has wonderful methods.

But if Buddhism interferes with the secular world with the wonderful method of practitioners, it will disturb the order of humanity, and it is something that Taoist ancestors cannot tolerate.

Haven't you seen that the Taoism of Dongsheng Shenzhou has been completely separated from the Taoism now?
So, Buddhism can only send a large number of Buddhist disciples to the east to preach, hoping to complete the mission of preaching...

However, they overthink it.

The Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, those are really seven powerful countries.

They compete with each other, in order not to be eliminated, which is super realistic, they have used their own methods to complete reforms to enhance national strength.

How can Buddhism be accepted under such circumstances?
Although the upper-class nobles were drunk and dreamy, the people in power were so anxious that their mouths were frothing.

Although the idea of ​​seeking an afterlife in Buddhism is more popular among the low-level people.

But among the upper-class nobles, even the drunken upper-class nobles have little appeal.

After all, Taoism has not been hidden for a long time. Everyone thinks that instead of seeking afterlife, why can't they seek longevity?
They have already enjoyed the top-level life, and of course they want to continue this life.

Therefore, the families of the big nobles usually raise some alchemists for them to make alchemy... The orthodox practitioners of Taoism no longer dare to participate in the affairs of the dynasty, that is, those alchemists who are wild are still active.

But it's these wild ways...the Buddhist missionaries were hanged and beaten...

After all, there is no basis for preaching in Buddhism.

And alchemists, but they can make alchemy for the nobles... the benefits are clear at a glance.

As for preaching to the bottom...

That's embarrassing, the people at the bottom are now only thinking about survival, and they have nothing to do with spiritual pursuits.

For Buddhism, the biggest difficulty is... the true belief in the existence of Nanzhan Buzhou, the belief in ancestors!
This is the diametrically opposite concept of Buddhism.

Ancestral beliefs unite many people into one family with the clan as a unit.

And Buddhism is to become a monk, isn't it to break up the family?

In this world of mortals, everyone has countless fetters, and how many of them can have great perseverance and great wisdom to cut off these fetters and understand Buddhism?

Even if there is, it is insignificant compared to the huge population base of the entire Nanzhan Buzhou.

What's interesting is that even if the Buddhists succeeded in preaching, they gained the faith of some local mortals.

But this kind of belief is actually a kind of "pan belief" to put it bluntly, that is, to worship whichever god looks powerful, the root is to bless the family safety, bless the dead after death... In essence, it is still for' Everyone' considered.

And once it doesn't work, then this kind of pan-belief will naturally be discarded at any time.

The plan to spread the Dharma to the east has been blocked for the time being, and there is no good way for the Buddhist sect to do so for the time being.

Taoist Duobao came to find Xia Qingyang again with hesitation.

He really didn't want to come to Xia Qingyang for help anymore, but he couldn't help it, he was under a lot of pressure sitting in this position.

The brothers who came from the Taoist sect were all counting on him to support the scene, while those disciples who were originally from the Western sect were all waiting to see his jokes.

He can only look for his junior brother Qingyang again.

But this time, Xia Qingyang didn't directly provide help, but directly proposed the idea of ​​traveling to the west.

"Brother, I want to send a small team to the west to obtain Buddhist scriptures, what do you think?"

Daoist Duobao was surprised at the time, and he couldn't help thinking about the significance of Xia Qingyang's actions.

But Xia Qingyang said seriously: "The Dharma can be spread eastward, but I also want to organize a westward journey here, and pass the prosperity of humanity in Nanzhan Buzhou to the west."

Daoist Duobao asked unexpectedly: "Isn't it the secret teaching of Taoism?"

Xia Qingyang shook his head and said, "Of course not, we just need to spread the prestige of the Central Dynasty."

Taoist Duobao began to think about Xia Qingyang's intentions for doing this... He suddenly realized something, and said, "Do you want the Western Humanity to respect the Nanzhan Buzhou Humanity?"

Xia Qingyang nodded and said: "I have this idea... What Buddhism wants is faith, what I want is humanity... How about senior brother? We each get what we need."

Taoist Duobao thought for a while, and then said after some consideration: "It's okay, but the candidates for the Westward Journey need to be discussed with my Buddha...Moreover, this Westward Journey needs to be carried out under the official name of the Central Dynasty of Nanzhan Buzhou. In addition... "

Seeing that he suddenly hesitated, Xia Qingyang said, "I can agree to everything that senior brother said, but it doesn't matter if you have anything else to say."

Daoist Duobao felt embarrassed, he had gone too far with this kind of thing, and he didn't even know how to speak.

Originally, Xia Qingyang was asking for something from him, and he could just return some favors... As a result, the request from the quasi-sage made him extremely embarrassed, and he simply didn't take his favors as favors.

He said: "Uncle Zhunti said that he hopes you can keep the karmic fire red lotus in Buddhism."

This request is really exaggerated.

Daoist Duobao sighed secretly and said, "I know this is too much, I just remind my junior...be careful."

Xia Qingyang understood what was going on.

Buddhism uses the golden lotus of merit to suppress luck, which is completely opposite to the red lotus of karma.

The ruthless attack at the beginning was supposed to completely destroy the Karma Red Lotus... Worst of all, even if Styx could restore it, it would only be at the ninth rank.

In this way, the golden lotus of merit and virtue and the red lotus of karma form an opposite balance again.

but……

It's so hard to die, Xia Qingyang actually surpassed Styx in the ability to commit crimes, he directly took away the ownership of the Karma Red Lotus, and cultivated it back to the twelfth-rank realm!
If it weren't for these twelve grades being the upper limit of Karma Red Lotus, with Xia Qingyang's tireless and fearless drive, maybe even higher grades could be cultivated.

So it is inevitable for him to be targeted by Buddhism.

Xia Qingyang suddenly remembered what Grand Master Taishang said... That is, let him leave an incarnation of three corpses in Buddhism at the right time!
It's not an ordinary incarnation, but the incarnation of three corpses, and it's named after becoming a quasi-sage...

Doesn't this mean that he cuts out an incarnation of three corpses and throws them into the Buddhist gate with the karmic fire red lotus?
In this way, this is also the meaning of the uncle...

Is it to let him enter Buddhism to do something?

Then he realized what...

The vision of the Taiqing sage should have almost reached that of Daozu.

In other words, what the Taiqing sage sees should always be the whole world instead of a single human religion or Taoism.

In the situation where Honghuang is facing such a catastrophe, how can the power of Buddhism be left unused?
and so……

The second sage of the West wants to get the karmic fire red lotus and also suppresses the luck of Buddhism.

But what the Taiqing sage wanted was to exchange the karmic fire red lotus in exchange for the contribution of Buddhism at certain times!
