On this day, on the 48,000-foot-tall Mount Sumeru in the Western Paradise, the Buddha's light shone everywhere, and the relics hung high in the air. Day and night, the entire pure land was illuminated.

On Mount Sumeru, the Buddha Maitreya was discussing the Dharma with the Buddhas. This discussion had lasted for 49 days and was initiated by the Buddha in order to bridge the dispute between the Mahayana and Hinayana Buddhism.

The great masters of Mahayana Buddhism and Hinayana Buddhism all came with their disciples.
In front of Mount Sumeru, the Buddhist Dharma is boundless. Forty-eight thousand Zen masters, monks, upasikas, holy monks, great gods in the Pure Land, Dingjia, Gongcao, and monastics all go to Mount Lingshan to listen to the Buddha's teachings and discuss the Zen scriptures.

The Buddha Maitreya was sitting in the palace, listening to the discussion of the Zen Master Shenxiu and the Tantric Master Deva, when he suddenly felt a shock in his heart. He counted with his fingers, but felt only chaos.

At this time, the Dharma Protector Vajra who was guarding the Eight Treasures Merit Lotus Pond came hurriedly to report that the water level in the Merit Lotus Pond had dropped three feet for no apparent reason and seven or eight lotus plants in the pond had withered.

The faces of all the Buddhas, Zen masters, and Arhats changed drastically when they heard this. The Eight Treasures Merit Lotus Pond is a treasure of merit that manifests the fortune of Buddhism.

In the Eight Treasures Merit Lotus Pond, the water has dried up and the lotus flowers have withered, which clearly shows that Buddhism has lost its fortune.

The saints of Buddhism counted with their fingers and tried to deduce the secrets of heaven, but they only saw chaos.

At this moment, the water and fire boy from Lingtai Fangcun Mountain hurried to Mount Xumi!
"Where do you come from, boy?" asked the Buddha Maitreya hurriedly.

The Water and Fire Boy bowed to the Buddha and said, "Buddha has mercy on me. Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva has passed away. The ancestor asks the Buddha to build the Fangcun Mountain!"

The Buddhas were shocked, and the Buddha Maitreya was even more shocked: "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva once made a great vow that he would not become a Buddha until hell is empty and all sentient beings are saved before he can attain Bodhi.

Now that his great wish has not yet been fulfilled, how can Ksitigarbha attain nirvana?!"

The Water and Fire Boy put his hands together and bowed respectfully: "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, be merciful. The ancestor only said that he had passed away, and sent me to inform the Buddha, without saying anything else!"

After a long while, the Buddha said, "Please go back, boy. I will go to Fangcun Mountain to meet the Patriarch in a few moments!"

The water and fire boys performed eleven bows again, left the hall, and left Mount Sumeru.

When Buddha Maitreya heard what the water and fire boys said, he understood that something had happened in the Netherworld.

The Buddha Maitreya has an incarnation, who was killed when he attained enlightenment in his past years. His name is Budai Monk, and he travels around the world.

The Buddha had an idea, and the monk Budai, who was staying in a temple in the human world, immediately broke through the underworld and wanted to go to Yinshan to take a look.

As soon as he stepped into the underworld, endless yellow fog suddenly rose in front of him. As he entered the fog, his body involuntarily became sluggish.

Each step taken by Budai Monk covered a distance of 180,000 miles, but even after taking steps for a long time, he still could not step out of the yellow fog.

"Which Taoist brother is playing this joke on me? Please give me some face and make way for me."

Budai Monk waited for a long time, but the yellow fog in front of him showed no sign of dissipating. He stared at the yellow fog in front of him with burning eyes, and after a while, he turned and left.

On Mount Xumi, Ratna Bodhisattva clasped his hands together and bowed to the Buddha: "The Buddha's Dharma Eye sees through the three realms. I don't know what the boy is talking about, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva."

Buddha Maitreya clasped his hands and said: "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is merciful and cannot bear the suffering of the six animals and the world, so he has reincarnated into the human world to first save the evil people and then the evil ghosts!"

Bodhisattva Ratnakūta clasped his hands and said, "Compassion, compassion, great kindness!"

All the monks said, "Good!"

All the monks chanted the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Sutra together, and the clear Sanskrit chanting echoed throughout the entire Pure Land.

After a short while, the Dharma Assembly ended, and the Buddha Maitreya left the Western Paradise and went to the Thirty-three Heavens, the Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, and the Xieyue Sanxing Cave.

"I've met the teacher!"

The Buddha Maitreya is the disciple of the Taoist Jie Yin, and the Patriarch Subhuti is the incarnation of the Taoist Cundi, so they are called Teacher.

Buddha Maitreya did not have time to be polite and said bluntly: "Several lotuses in the Eight Treasures Merit Lotus Pond have withered, and the water level in the lotus pond has dropped by three feet! I wanted to go to the underworld, but was blocked by an unknown yellow fog. Teacher, do you know what happened in the underworld?"

Patriarch Subhuti sighed softly: "It was only on a whim that I learned that Ksitigarbha had passed away!"

"With the current strength of the Blood Sea, how could it force Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to nirvana? Could it be that the leader of the Styx has escaped from the trap?!"

Buddha Maitreya frowned when he thought of the changes in the Abyss Sea not long ago, which was because the Asura demon wanted to find the place where the Styx leader was suppressed.

Patriarch Subhuti said: "The seal of the Styx Taoist was personally performed by several leaders. I have seen it and there is no mistake!"

"Buddha, do you know how many people have attained the Hunyuan Wuji Dao Fruit in this world since the creation of the world by Pangu the Great Sage until now?" asked Patriarch Subhuti.

Maitreya Buddha said: "Teacher, everyone knows this. Among the saints of heaven and earth, including the Dao Master, there are seven in total who have attained the Tao fruit of the Primordial Chaos and the Indestructible Tao!"

"Which seven?" Master Subhuti asked again.

"The Three Saints of Xuanmen, Taiqing Daode Tianzun, Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, the two saints of my Buddhist sect, my teacher and my master, plus the Nuwa Saint of the Wa Palace, plus the Daozun who has already transcended!"

Although Maitreya Buddha did not know why Master Subhuti asked such questions, he had to answer them one by one.

"Wrong, wrong!" Master Subhuti shook his head and sighed.

Maitreya Buddha was puzzled: "Teacher, what's wrong with that?"

Patriarch Subhuti glanced outside the hall with a disappointed look: "In the netherworld, there is also a fellow Taoist who has achieved the state of Hun Yuan Wu Ji!"

Maitreya Buddha was stunned for a moment, then he said in shock: "Teacher, you are talking about Lady Pingxin, hasn't she long since stopped caring about worldly affairs?"

No wonder Maitreya Buddha was surprised.

It is not that he, the Buddha of Buddhism, is not as good as the great Asura King Mara.

It is true that Niangniang Pingxin is truly as quiet and gentle as a chrysanthemum. After she transformed herself into a reincarnation, she has lived in seclusion from the world. Even when Buddhism and Taoism fought openly and secretly for the control of the underworld several times, this Niangniang never showed up.

If this lady had the intention to interfere in the underworld, how could Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva have sat calmly in Yinshan for billions of years?

“Ah!” Patriarch Subhuti sighed, “Yes, Lady Pingxin has been reincarnated for countless calamities. Even during the great calamity of witches and demons, she did not take action. The world has forgotten about Lady Pingxin.

Even we have forgotten this lady, otherwise we would not have failed to visit this Taoist friend when we left the Three Realms!"

Subhuti is the incarnation of the Taoist Cundi, so he naturally knows the whole story of how the original Buddha and those religious leaders left the world of Jambu.

Before leaving the Three Realms, several religious leaders joined forces and asked all the powerful people who might threaten their sect to leave this world.

For those who are stubborn like the Taoist of the Styx, he was directly suppressed. If it weren't for the fact that the Taoist of the Styx's life was one with the sea of ​​blood and could not be erased, it would not be as simple as just suppressing him. For someone as far-sighted as the Supreme, and as meticulous as his own deity, he didn't even consider the authentic Supreme Lady Pingxin.

This was partly because Empress Pingxin did not care about worldly affairs, but more likely it was Heaven's counterattack against them, causing them to subconsciously ignore Empress Pingxin.

But considering Empress Pingxin's personality and the fact that she sealed herself in the cycle of endless reincarnation, why on earth could she have been able to provoke her to take action?

Patriarch Subhuti's mind was flowing, and he looked at the Buddha Maitreya: "My Buddhist sect has flourished since the time of the Journey to the West, and it has been a long time since then. There is nothing unchanging in the world, and the rise and fall of fortune is also the same."

Maitreya Buddha said: "Teacher, my sect has been prosperous since the two teachers made great aspirations and experienced countless disasters. The two teachers have spent so much effort, how can the rise and fall be determined by one person!"

Patriarch Subhuti remained silent for a long time before he stood up and said, "This matter is not something I can decide alone. It is a matter of great importance. I must go to the Bajing Palace to meet fellow Taoist priest!"

Netherworld

The reason why the strange phenomenon caused by the nirvana of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva attracted Niangniang Pingxin was not like the phenomenon caused by Sandalwood Merit Buddha, which caused blood rain in the three realms and the wailing of ghosts and gods.

However, the silent Buddha light fell into the eyes of hundreds of millions of monks and Buddhist soldiers at the foot of Yinshan Mountain.

For a moment, the eight hundred Bodhisattvas, Venerables, Arhats, and countless Dharma protectors who regarded Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva as their inner support, and all the heavens were in chaos.

On the contrary, the Asuras in the Sea of ​​Blood have suffered from Buddhism for a long time, especially the Ksitigarbha lineage, which has suppressed their Sea of ​​Blood for so many years.

Seeing the passing of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, the monks became confused. A group of Asuras immediately attacked the monks with their horse-slaying swords that were not even warm yet.

A group of Asura Kings, including the Great Asura Kings, approached the great Bodhisattvas and Venerables of Buddhism. The two sides fought fiercely in the dark sky and on the sea of ​​blood.

Yun Yan, holding the innate magic treasure, the Mara Umbrella, greeted Fahai, the great Bodhisattva of Buddhism.

Since Yun Yan met Tang Song, he first obtained the magical power of the Yuanhui Danzhu, and then received his enlightenment and teachings. His cultivation is no worse than that of Fahai, the great Bodhisattva under the seat of Ksitigarbha.

In his hand he had the innate magic treasure, the Mara Umbrella, which was not inferior to the Buddha's golden bowl in Fahai's hand. The two sides fought, and it was difficult to tell who was the better one for a while.

The two sides fought on the sea of ​​blood, causing the blood sea of ​​billions of miles to surge and even the Shura King City at the bottom of the blood sea began to tremble.

This scene made the Shura princesses who were familiar with Yun Yan stunned. They didn't know when this "sister" or "sister" became so powerful.

However, although Yun Yan showed strong strength, she was still slightly inferior to Hela.

Although Hela has not achieved Daluo, she has extraordinary talents and has practiced the magical power of blood nerves.

With the vast resources of the extraterritorial heaven for cultivation, he condensed the Blood River very early and his power is as strong as some old monsters and ancient golden immortals.

Now holding the Heavenly Demon Blood-Transforming Sword in her hand, a continuous and dense spiritual light shot out from her eyes, illuminating the void. She felt that her mind was more agile and lively than ever before.

In an instant, it swept across the entire underworld, as if everything that happened in the boundless underworld was under her control.

She clearly sensed everything in the netherworld, the flow of every drop of blood in the sea of ​​blood, the trajectory of every wisp of cold wind in the netherworld, and every ghost in the underworld.
And thousands of miles away, on the rooftop of Senluo Palace, the bitch drinking a cocktail seemed to have everything under her control.

What a magical feeling. That wonderful feeling made her feel like she wanted to become one with the Demonic Blood-Transforming Sword in her hand.

She casually swung a knife at the Sunlight Bodhisattva. The moment Hela made her move, the blood-red knife light increased ten thousand times!
It was like a giant dragon of destruction that was destroying the world, slashing towards the Bodhisattva of Sunlight.

In the netherworld, vast blood-red sword light filled the universe. Wherever the sword light passed, the Buddha's image shaped like the sun was stained with a layer of blood at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The Sunlight Bodhisattva, the left-hand attendant of Medicine Buddha, is also the most powerful of the three thousand great Bodhisattvas in Buddhism. Among all the Bodhisattvas, he is second only to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and the three great Bodhisattvas.

Seeing the bloody knife coming, he lowered his head, formed a seal with his hands, and pressed down towards Helagi.

Boom! !

The giant Buddha clapped his hands together, and Buddha's light surged across the sky, as if cleansing the world's doomsday frenzy, with each level higher than the last!
The magical power accumulated by the Sunlight Bodhisattva over countless years was so powerful that with one move, his momentum instantly surpassed the blood-colored dragon.

In just a moment, the two of them fought thousands of times. The Sunlight Bodhisattva sat on the lotus platform, his body as still as a mountain, but in every moment,

The void behind him cracked into a deep rift, and it condensed a terrifying scene of earth-shaking changes in the Buddhist world. Countless ancient temples were defiled by the bloody sword light, and countless believers and arhats became dead souls under the sword.

Faintly, above the boiling void, red-gold Buddha blood was flowing out like a divine spring waterfall!

But although the Buddha's kingdom was suppressed by the blood-transforming sword light of the Heavenly Demon, the golden body seemed unaffected, and there was a faint sound of endless chanting coming from within it.

"Okay, okay, let me see how many believers there are in your Buddhist kingdom that I can kill!"

Hila was temporarily suppressed by the Sunlight Bodhisattva, but her own condensed Blood River Magical Power, which was blessed by 480 million Blood Gods, was not inferior to that of the Sunlight Bodhisattva.

Hila was surprised that the Sunlight Bodhisattva could actually block the Demonic Blood-Transforming Sword in her hand, and her attacks became more and more fierce.

Under the erosion of the blood, the Buddha's light behind the Sunlight Bodhisattva swayed, and even some invisible cracks appeared on the golden body of the Bodhisattva.

Apparently, it was not as easy for this great Bodhisattva to deal with Hela holding the Heavenly Demon Blood-Transforming Knife as it looked.

The Sunlight Bodhisattva made hand seals and displayed many great Buddhist magical powers in an attempt to suppress Hela.

Hela is a war-loving person by nature, and her joy at war is even worse than Kane's. If it weren't for Tang Song's suppression over the years, countless reincarnation worlds would have been destroyed by this goddess of death.

Seeing the fierce momentum of the Sunlight Bodhisattva, Hila's eyes became more and more fiery, her black hair flying like when she led the army to quell the rebellion in the Nine Realms, and the bloody knife in her hand danced, slashing out rays of knife light.

As the Buddha's light and blood light intertwined, the blood light transformed by countless blood gods sank into the Buddha's light of the Sunlight Bodhisattva.

In every moment, there are tens of thousands of fights, and every moment, countless blood gods are wiped out by the Buddha's light of the Sunlight Bodhisattva.

In the Buddha's kingdom of Sunlight Bodhisattva, devout believers are polluted by blood at every moment.

The fight between the two has already reached the Daluo level, which is a terrifying force that is enough to shatter a universe.

Even though the underworld is extremely solid, it cannot ignore this tremendous force.

Fortunately, a yellow mist had filled the area around the Blood Sea and Yin Mountain, blocking the aftermath of the fight between the two and saving the underworld.
