Conferred God: Got cramped at the beginning

Chapter 1002 Where is the Arctic Exorcism Academy!
"Even the ancient Buddha wants to come and discuss the Dao?" Ao Bing laughed as soon as he saw the revealed Dipankara Buddha.

Under the Jade Emperor's chess game, everyone should be moving around the chess game.

Go to the chessboard and make your moves.

At this time, the most bustling place should be the most 'chaotic' Southern Continent.

Suddenly, his execution platform became the most bustling place in the world.

All the great Luo Immortals have turned their attention here.

Furthermore, four renowned and influential figures of great supernatural power came to the Execution Platform one after another.

Among them, Zhao Gongming came because of the financial channels and the Ministry of Finance.

The Antarctic Longevity Emperor and the Antarctic Immortal came for Zhao Gongming and for the Three Heavenly Kings of Fortune, Prosperity and Longevity.

So, for whom did Dipankara Buddha come?
Ao Bing flipped through the list in his hand.

There are no Buddhist disciples on the list of those who have not yet been executed.

The Buddhist saying "Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot" can protect those immortals and gods outside of Buddhism. One can only imagine what happens to Buddhist disciples who violate the heavenly rules.

“Amitabha, this humble monk has come for the sake of the Great Dragon God.” Dipankara Buddha clasped his hands together.

"Oh?" Ao Bing's face revealed undisguised sarcasm.

"I thought the ancient Buddha came for those Buddhist disciples who violated the heavenly rules."

Seeing the sarcastic look on Ao Bing's face, Dipankara Buddha didn't care at all.

After all, it's only natural that Ao Bing would have opinions about Buddhism.

Not to mention the grudges and grievances inherited from the Western religion, Brahmanism, and Buddhism.

Let's just talk about the rules of heaven themselves.

Within the system of Heavenly Rules, the one with the highest status is Yang Jian, the God of Justice, who nominally oversees all aspects of the Heavenly Rules.

Ao Bing is in charge of only the part of the Heavenly Rules concerning death.

Moreover, they only handle the execution, not the sentencing.

To be honest, the part of the power that Ao Bing holds that is related to the Heavenly Rules is extremely small.

In reality, Ao Bing, who is in charge of the Heavenly Rules concerning death, is actually in charge of the most important cornerstone of the Heavenly Rules!

Nothing in the universe can be called fair, and true fairness cannot exist in the world.

But death, and the law of death in the heavenly rules, is the fairest of all.

Regardless of background, skill, or connections—if you offend them, you die!
It is precisely because of the fairness of the death penalty that the justice of the heavenly rules covering the world can be guaranteed!

Under the Heavenly Rules, when Yang Jian led the Gods of Justice to enforce the law in the world, the many Great Luo Immortals and the Sage Sects would give him face and not directly oppose him.

Those disciples under their command who were caught red-handed were executed or punished as appropriate. Although some who violated the death penalty were not on Ao Bing's list, they were indeed punished by their respective sects in accordance with their sect rules and regulations.

Only Buddhism!

Buddhism is the only exception!

From the Buddhist perspective, they are protecting their disciples and strengthening their power.

From Ao Bing's perspective, the existence of Buddhism truly infringed upon his authority.

Those Buddhist disciples who violated ordinary heavenly rules were left alone—the Buddhist sect would punish them, and the Heavenly Court would still have an explanation to the outside world.

But those Buddhist disciples who violated the death penalty... no matter how much the Buddhist community punishes them, how can they atone for their damned sins?
Nothing can erase this except death!
Therefore, the actions of Buddhism today can be said to have truly touched upon the most fundamental foundation of the Heavenly Rules.

It touched upon the very core of the Heavenly Rules: justice!
However, in the past, Ao Bing, who was in charge of the Heavenly Rules and Death, had always been in seclusion in the East Sea, and the Buddhist sect had always seemed to have a conflict with Ao Bing.

Therefore, it is 'justified' for them to protect disciples who have violated the death penalty.

That not only touched upon the Heavenly Rules, but also touched upon their 'personal grudges' with Ao Bing.

This is precisely why, when Buddhism showed its willingness to protect its disciples who had violated the death penalty, the other Great Luo Immortals in the world, as well as Yang Jian, the God of Justice... and even the Heavenly Court, did not take any extreme measures.

Because everyone is waiting for Ao Bing to emerge from seclusion.

Waiting for this celestial deity who holds the reins of heavenly laws to emerge from seclusion.

Only after he emerges from seclusion can the true attitude of Buddhism towards the Heavenly Rules be revealed—if they are willing to hand over those Buddhist disciples who have violated the death penalty, or to execute those Buddhist disciples, it means that Buddhism still has some respect for the Heavenly Rules.

If, after Ao Bing emerges from seclusion, the Buddhist sect still believes that they can transcend the heavenly rules, then the situation will be completely different.

Similarly, the Buddhas of Buddhism are also waiting for Ao Bing to emerge from seclusion.

Just like the gods of wealth in the Ministry of Finance, before Ao Bing emerged from seclusion, no matter what others did or chose, it was difficult to set that ultimate limit.

But Ao Bing, the god who holds the law of death, set the ultimate limit under the heavenly rule after he emerged from seclusion!
As long as Ao Bing can express his willingness to forgive and forget the past actions of the Buddhist sect and its disciples, then the matter of the Buddhist sect being removed from the Heavenly Rules will be completely settled—just like the demon race.

Under normal circumstances, the Buddhist community would certainly not have such thoughts, after all, everyone knows Ao Bing's personality.

But now...

First, the matter of the God of Wealth caused turmoil in heaven and earth.

Then the Jade Emperor's chessboard came into play, and powerful figures from all directions and beyond entered the game.

For Pan Tian, ​​this is an incredibly grand era, and a crucial juncture that will influence his future destiny.

The existence of Buddhism is the biggest bargaining chip in this game.

Therefore, it is not impossible that Ao Bing, the Great Dragon God who upholds justice and upholds Heaven, might make some concessions above the Heavenly Rules in order to stabilize Buddhism.

Moreover, the one who is in charge of the Heavenly Court now is the Jade Emperor. If the Heavenly Rules are shaken, the one most affected will not be Ao Bing, but the Jade Emperor.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to report," the Ancient Buddha Dipankara chanted. "The path of wealth permeates heaven and earth."

"If we consider Pan Tian as a giant god, then the path to wealth is the meridians and blood of this giant god."

"Now, His Majesty is taking drastic measures to rectify the financial system, which has certainly curbed the ills of the financial system."

"But after the giant god's meridians and blood vessels were torn apart by this potent medicine, he himself must be on the verge of collapse."

As he spoke, Dipankara Buddha raised his hand and waved his robe in front of Ao Bing.

Then the Buddha Kingdom in his palm transformed into a bright mirror, reflecting everything between heaven and earth before Ao Bing's eyes.

Above that lies the Heavenly Court, with its various blessed lands and grottoes.

In the human world, it encompasses the nine provinces and four directions.

They descended to the netherworld, to the Yinshan Hell.

Under the relentless wheel of fate, endless death unfolded before Ao Bing.

The retribution that had accumulated over tens of thousands of years swept out in an instant, and the resulting deaths were immeasurable!
Its impact on the world is unimaginable!

Before Zhao Gongming's path to wealth manifested, every region in Pantian could be described as a 'small country with few people,' each self-sufficient.

Then the path of wealth manifested, unifying the entire Pantian realm, gathering all its power together, and circulating resources from different parts of Pantian...

As a result, those regions and sects that were originally 'small countries with few people' and 'self-sufficient' under the control of the Ministry of Finance underwent different changes and biases. They were no longer self-sufficient, but instead took advantage of their strengths and abandoned their weaknesses in order to seek the greatest benefit and the greatest value.

The system of wealth cultivation, although manifested based on Zhao Gongming's Dao fruition, operates throughout the entire world and relies on the countless wealth gods of the Ministry of Finance and the countless cultivators who practice the path of wealth cultivation—an incredibly vast system.

This system, even more profound than the Heavenly Rules, covers every corner of the world.

The unbridled behavior of these "gods of wealth," operating within an unrestrained system, leads to a situation where those who profit rise while those who lose fall.

That is, even within the Ministry of Finance system, 99% of the Gods of Wealth and 99% of the practitioners of the Way of Gold Wealth are problematic!

This means that when the wheel of fate falls, almost all the gods of wealth will be wiped out in one fell swoop!
The entire system of wealth that connects heaven and earth has almost come to a standstill!
The impact of this on the current global situation is immense, as one can imagine.

Today, the other living beings in the world praise and worship Ao Bing because he dealt with those gods of wealth. But when the impact of the shutdown of the wealth system falls on those living beings, all the praise and worship will turn into curses!
What does "too big to fail" mean? It means the current financial system, which is full of countless "gods of wealth" whose existence is precisely because they are too big to fail!
"Your Majesty, a stone thrown into the water creates ripples that spread in all directions."

"Moreover, Your Majesty is now directly pushing a sacred mountain into the ocean. Even if Your Majesty only wants to destroy that sacred mountain, how many lives will be swept away by the waves caused by its collapse?"

"Therefore, Your Majesty should reconsider the matter concerning the gods of the Ministry of Finance."

“After they convert to Buddhism, our Buddhist sect is willing to cooperate with Your Majesty to gradually strip away the power of those gods of the Ministry of Finance and hand over the reins of power.”

"In this way, Your Majesty will not only punish those audacious and reckless tyrants of wealth, but also prevent the world from suffering the impact of the collapse of the Ministry of Finance. Why not do it?"

"This is what the ancient Buddha Dipankara spoke."

He came for the Buddhist disciples, and also for the gods of wealth at this time.

At the Great Thunder Temple, the will of Buddhism has been unified through communication among the three Buddhas.

Therefore, Dipankara Buddha wanted to use this method to invite Ao Bing into the game—and also to make those Brahma Buddhas believe that, in this respect, the entire Buddhist community was on their side.

In this way, those Brahma Buddhas will step into this calamity in a more proactive way, and the Buddhist plan to use the calamity to cut off its own decaying flesh can achieve the greatest effect.

To put it bluntly, in the eyes of those Brahma Buddhas, Dipankara Buddha's visit this time was to test Ao Bing and to demonstrate the determination of Buddhism.

But for Dipankara Buddha himself, he was there to hand over the list!

On the surface, the Ancient Buddha Dipankara righteously protects those beings who endure the cruel cycle of fate.

However, in secret, Dipankara Buddha had already frankly told Ao Bing about the current situation within Buddhism. He told Ao Bing that because of the premature return of the Brahma Buddhist sect, the three Buddhas of the past and present had lost absolute control over Buddhism.

He told Ao Bing about their plan for the Three Buddhas.

Amidst the magnificent and ancient Buddhist light, the Dipankara Buddha and Ao Bing communicate and exchange ideas in an incredible manner.

It was thanks to the Qiankun Ruler, one of the innate spiritual treasures that Ao Bing used to open up the Forty-Nine Heavenly Palaces, that the innate spiritual treasure was once held by the Ancient Buddha Dipankara. Otherwise, the communication between him and Ao Bing would never have been so secretive.

“The ancient Buddha should know that I do not care about these things.” Ao Bing said calmly. “Moreover, I have never believed that the gods of wealth in the Golden Palace of the Ministry of Finance are indispensable.”

"I have never believed that without them, the entire system of the God of Wealth that connects the world would be unable to function."

As he spoke, Ao Bing's gaze had already fallen on Zhao Gongming.

"The Great Luo One can manifest in countless forms."

"I think that when the countless gods of wealth are absent, the True Lord of the Mysterious Altar should be willing to transform into billions of them and temporarily take over the authority of those many gods of wealth with a single strike, so as to drive the operation of heaven and earth."

As they spoke, Ao Bing's hand was already on Zhao Gongming's shoulder—in that instant, Zhao Gongming's figure became indistinct.

It seems that even if Zhao Gongming himself disagreed with this matter, Ao Bing would take advantage of the weakness of Zhao Gongming's Dao Fruit being restricted, and punch Zhao Gongming into countless fragments, so that those countless fragments could take charge of the operation of the Ministry of Finance system.

"Does Your Majesty truly intend to exterminate them all?" Dipankara Buddha pondered for a long time, and finally sighed helplessly.

The Buddha's light had completely sealed off the Execution Platform.

Meanwhile, in the golden palace of the Ministry of Finance, the old monk sitting on the lotus platform was already leading countless wealth gods who were willing to convert, and was swiftly heading towards Xiniuhezhou, towards Mount Ling.

"There are natural rules in the world, so how can you talk about exterminating everyone?" Ao Bing sneered, throwing the list of names that had not yet been executed in front of him.

On the execution platform, the terrifyingly sharp blade instantly shattered the Buddhist light emanating from the Dipankara Buddha, and then struck the old monk who was heading towards Mount Ling.

With that single strike, the old monk's golden body was almost completely cleaved in two.

Even so, the old monk, with an incredibly 'tenacious' attitude, led the many gods of wealth and hid inside Mount Ling.

"How dare you!" Seeing this, Ao Bing finally stood up.

"Where is the Arctic Exorcism Center?!"
