Honghuang: The Golden Crow Emperor, starts by robbing the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 703: Ginger is still spicier when old

Why did the Taoist still give him the Dharma and use him even though he failed once?

Because Daozu trusts him the most and can only use him.

The two bald donkeys in the west belong to Buddhism and Taoism. They have already developed disloyal ideas and want to break away from the Heavenly Way, break away from the control of the Taoist Patriarch, and lead Buddhism and Taoism to become independent.

Knowing full well that the catastrophe of Journey to the West was related to the rise and fall of Buddhism, Zhunti and Jie Yin still left the primitive world and traveled in the chaos, just to test the Taoist Patriarch.

They were afraid of angering the Taoist Ancestor and being punished by him, so they did not dare to take action themselves. Although Tathagata seemed to be the top leader of Lingshan, he was actually pushed out by Zhunti and Jie Yin to take the blame.

Let Tathagata fight for merit and offend the Jade Emperor and the Taoist Patriarch.

The Jade Emperor has bullied Lingshan many times. Without the permission of Daozu, would he really dare to do that?
Daozu attacked Tathagata, bullying the weak and gaining a bad reputation, so he asked the Jade Emperor to deal with Tathagata.

If it was Zhunti and Jie Yin who were here, then it was the Taoist Ancestor who created Zhunti and Jie Yin.

Tathagata also understood that he was deceived by Zhunti and Jie Yin, so he later stopped competing for merits and did not go against the Jade Emperor, just doing whatever he wanted.

This is why at the beginning of Journey to the West, Lingshan and Heaven were arguing fiercely over merits, but in the later stages, Lingshan made all kinds of concessions, and Taibai Jinxing went to Lingshan and cheated him out of a huge sum of money, and Lingshan accepted it.

The Taoist no longer trusts Zhunti and Jie Yin, so naturally he would not entrust important matters to the two of them, Subhuti and Amitabha.

As for Laozi Shanshi Taishang Laojun, he is about to fall out with the Taoist Ancestor.

I don’t know why, but the Taoist didn’t punish Taishang Laojun, as if he had some leverage over him.

Daozu had always scolded them, but he had never scolded Laozi. It seemed that there was something fishy about the relationship between the two of them.

As for Nuwa, she is a selfish person, she has little ability, is greedier than anyone else, and can accomplish nothing.

As for the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother, although they are loyal, they are timid and dare not go against the followers of Jinwu and Houba.

He is the only one who never gives in. No matter if he loses, he will just keep going. What kind of child would cry every day?

Daozu had no choice but to continue using him.

At this moment, the eyes of the Western religious lineage lit up when they saw the pile of top-level magic weapons. They couldn't move away, they couldn't move away at all.

There are dozens of magical weapons, all of which are top-grade innate spiritual treasures or above. Among them, there are ten top-grade innate spiritual treasures and one innate supreme treasure.

In order to deal with the demons, or to be more precise, the demonic sects, the Taoist ancestor also spent a lot of money and specially refined magic weapons to arm them.

Compared to the East, the West is still poor. In the Western religious lineage, most of the quasi-saints, and even those in the late quasi-saint stage, do not have top-grade innate spiritual treasures.

With these magical weapons, their combat effectiveness will be greatly enhanced. Normally, seeing the lineages of the Orthodox and Demonic sects, each person has at least one top-grade innate magical treasure, which makes people envious and jealous.

"Humph, I don't have to take out these magic weapons, or I can take out less and let me distribute them. Do you have any objections?"

Yuanshi Tianzun snorted with disdain, looking down on the poor and ignorant appearance of the Western Church.

"No comment."

No matter what Subhuti and Amitabha dare to say, the Dharma edict bestowed by the Taoist Ancestor to Yuanshi Tianzun has already explained a lot of things.

"Among us, Guangchengzi has the strongest fighting power. This innate treasure, Wanxiang Tianzhi, can only be used by Guangchengzi to exert its maximum power." Yuanshi Tianzun directly gave the innate treasure to Guangchengzi.

Maitreya and Ksitigarbha were very dissatisfied. Why did they say Guangchengzi was the strongest? Even if Guangchengzi had the Fantian Seal, they would not necessarily lose.

But Subhuti and Amitabha Buddha did not say anything, and they didn’t know what to say.

“In addition, this Jingxiazhu is the strongest. Give it to Dizang. Dizang is good at defense but not enough at offense. With Jingxiazhu, it can make up for the deficiency in offense.” Yuanshi Tianzun continued.

The faces of the Western Sect finally looked better, as Yuanshi Tianzun finally did not go too far. However, the Chan Sect was not happy, and Guanyin and others were about to object, but Yuanshi Tianzun glared back at them.

"Maitreya is good at attack but not enough at defense. This piece of Zaotianbi has thirty-four prohibitions and extremely strong defense. The blue sky light it contains also has a certain restraining effect on demonic energy. Give it to Maitreya." Yuanshi Tianzun continued to distribute.

The Western religions were suddenly a little ashamed. They didn't expect Yuanshi Tianzun to be so fair and just. They were judging others by their own standards.

The Orthodox Sect was almost furious, not understanding what Yuanshi Tianzun was doing, and gave the two magic weapons that were most capable of restraining demonic energy to the Western Sect.

Then there are Taoist Xuanyang, Fairy Xuanyin, Tianji, Happy Buddha and Jade Ding Zhenren.

Anyway, just go according to the strongest, and the most powerful magic weapon will be given to the strongest first.

Of the ten top-grade innate spiritual treasures, the Western Church got four. There were originally three, which they had fought for on the grounds that Taiyi Zhenren had obtained the Ninth-grade Golden Lotus and Qiankun Ruler from Randang, and gave them to Wei Tuo and Bai Lian Tongzi.

The next high-grade innate spiritual treasure is owned by the Chan Sect, which has few members. Otherwise, the Western Sect would also suffer a great loss. Even so, it will be split in half.

In the Chan teaching, everyone had one item in excess, like the Buddha Kālacakana, who received two items at once.

The Western religions simply don't have enough to share, so it's too early to be happy. They still overestimate Yuanshi Tianzun, who is just giving them a sweet treat to shut them up.

However, with the support of these magical weapons, their combat effectiveness has indeed been raised to a higher level.

After distributing the treasures, Yuanshi Tianzun asked the people of the Western Sect to quickly refine the magic weapons, leaving the disciples of the Chan Sect behind.

"Master, why did you give both the Pure Cloud Pearl and the Creation Sky Jade to the Western Sect? These two magic weapons are the best at restraining evil spirits. You should give one to each of them, at least."

Manjusri didn’t understand and was so angry that he felt very disappointed in his friend.

"Foolish! Restraining the demonic energy will inevitably cause the demons to be wary. It is better to try to destroy these two magic weapons and let the Western Church attract the demons' firepower. What's wrong with that?"

Yuanshi Tianzun glared at everyone with disappointment.

"Oh, Master is very wise."

Everyone's expressions immediately changed and they gave thumbs up.

The older the ginger, the spicier it is. They are still a little naive. The Western religions are a bunch of fools. They are grateful even after being tricked.

"Remember, you don't have to fight the demons to death. If the situation is not right, just scatter, break up into small groups, and hide."

"There is no need to fight the demons to death now. The most important thing is the 17 relics, which can only be found by Sun Wukong. You should find a way to get one, or find the reincarnation of Tathagata."

"If we make some moves and control Tathagata to work for us, the Buddhist sect will be controlled by us. We don't need to fight for our lives. When the time comes, the mob of Jiejiao will naturally fight for Tathagata."

"The Jie Sect values ​​friendship and loyalty, which is praised by people, but this is also their biggest weakness."

"As for those bald donkeys of the Western Church, Wu Tian will never let them go. We can just sit back and watch the fight."

Yuanshi Tianzun raised a sinister sneer at the corner of his mouth.

Daozu De ordered that he would try his best to complete it, but in the process of completing it, he must also seek the greatest benefit for the Chanjiao.

There is no need to be afraid even if Daozu is angry, because Daozu has no one else to use and can only use him, and he will not do anything to him.

"Yes."

Everyone's eyes lit up, the leader was indeed very shrewd.
