Evolution Paradise, are you the disaster?

Chapter 659 The Freedom of "Ksitigarbha" and "Ji Gong"
"Jiang Ziya! Prepare to die!"

"Hey! You bald thief, how dare you aid Jiang in his evil deeds!"

The "Reboot the Gods: Emperor Project" Cup Unrestricted Fighting Tournament is in full swing. Members of the "Primordial Three Religions" faction of the "Civilization Struggle: Commerce" camp are using their full strength to the fullest extent, driven by hatred.

The idiom "aiding and abetting evil," which should belong to "King Zhou of Shang, Di Xin," has today been applied by the gods and immortals to the "Buddhist group" that assisted "the Zhou Dynasty in its struggle for civilization."

It seems outrageous, but it's actually not.

This aligns perfectly with the main theme of "reversing the heavenly order," suggesting that it was written by "15th-level test field - the reversal of the Tao: professional manager" - "the master of the nihilistic faction."

"Who are you calling a bald monk?!"

The warmongering members of the "Buddhist Group" and "Mythical Great Luo T4 Mountain King Buddha," who has a good personal relationship with "Zhao Taiyi," who has fought his way up to "Mythical Great Luo T5," rolled up their sleeves, their incredibly exaggerated muscles constantly demonstrating the profoundness of "Mountain King Buddha Dharma."

"Hilarious! Whoever has a shiny bald head is being insulted!"

The warmongers of the "Biyou Palace · Jiejiao" faction remained fearless.

"You bald thief! Take this!"

"Taoist Group·Heavenly Court Company: God of Wealth" "Mythical Great Luo T3·Zhao Gongming", who had nowhere to vent his anger, raised the Twenty-Four Sea-Stabilizing Pearls with one hand and sublimated them into "Great Divine Power·Twenty-Four Heavens".

The eyes of the "Mountain King Buddha" instantly became much clearer; his muscles were still somewhat lacking compared to the techniques of the "Twenty-Four Devas".

"This is a tough one! Brothers, let's go together!"

"Mountain King Buddha" quickly called his friends, and eighteen burly men, gleaming with gold, jumped out of a van. They were the famous "Buddhist Group - Eighteen Arhats Heavenly Team".

"Whether it's one bald monk or nineteen bald monks, it's still the same to fight them!"

Zhao Gongming, wielding the "Twenty-Four Great Divine Powers of the Heavens," unleashed another powerful move, clearly following a path of "specialization and refinement," focusing on achieving miracles through sheer force.

Zhao Gongming, with his domineering and strategic acumen, displayed unparalleled prowess by taking on nineteen opponents single-handedly.

But the "Eighteen Arhats" and the "Mountain King Buddha" who was just there for show were not to be outdone. Nineteen muscular, golden-haired men fought with "Zhao Gongming," giving "Zhao Gongming," who had penetrated deep into enemy territory, a taste of what it meant to be "man on top of man"!

Powerful! Powerful! Dominant! Fierce!
Real men should fight each other hand-to-hand, while only sissies would hide in the distance and resort to dirty tricks!
……

Another battlefield that's not so manly.

Riding atop the ultra-luxurious and rare limited-edition mount "Di Ting," which possesses the characteristics of a tiger's head, a single horn, dog's ears, a dragon's body, a lion's tail, and unicorn's feet, and embodying the features of a host of beasts, "Buddhist Group Ksitigarbha" calmly gazes at his opponent.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said in the tone of an old friend reminiscing, "I never expected it would be a fellow Daoist."

Wearing a crown and a black and gold imperial robe, exuding a dignified and solemn aura, the "Mythical Great Luo T2 - Emperor of Fengdu," with his twelve tassels cascading down, chuckled and replied, "It's a good opportunity to see just how authentic your 'redemption' truly is."

The level of a position can reflect a person's strength to some extent, but it is not absolute.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is clearly an outlier. His "Orthodox Bodhisattva level" is only "Mythical Great Luo T3", but his path to self has "Mythical Great Luo T2".

The vow of "I will not become a Buddha until hell is empty" is Ksitigarbha's self-salvation, which is not willing to be further bound by the "Buddhist group," and it is also his own original intention.

"good."

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva readily agreed, saying, "I would be grateful if you could escort this humble monk on his way."

"Fellow Daoist, please observe how far this humble monk is from reaching the levels of 'Mythical Great Luo T2 - Eastern Azure Flower Emperor' → 'Daoist Struggle Stage - Taiyi Salvation Heavenly Venerable'!"

"Taiyi Jiuku Tianzun" is a contestant in the "Redemption Path Contest" (a game of bladder control).

The dialogue makes it clear that "Ksitigarbha" wants to take this opportunity to shed the "Mythical Great Luo T3 · Right Bodhisattva Level" status, so as to maintain his purity and enter the "Path Struggle Stage".

It would obviously be much easier for Ksitigarbha to escape than for Shakyamuni.

"The rank of Bodhisattva" and "the rank of Buddha" are not the same thing. The titles of "Buddha" such as "Buddha in this very body" and "Buddha of the Mountain King" are too exaggerated and cannot be compared with "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva".

Fighting to the death against a powerful being who has reached the "Mythical Great Luo T2" level in both the "predetermined future" and the "uncertain future" is enough to offset the ransom for switching to the "Buddhist Group - Right Bodhisattva Level".

Having known each other for so long, rather than having "Ksitigarbha" fight against other less capable enemies that might lead to his failure to switch sides, it would be better for "Emperor Fengdu" to personally see his old friend off!
"A fight to the death?"

"As it should be!"

The "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva" and the "Fengdu Emperor," who are both enemies and friends, turn on each other and kill each other in a scene of friends reuniting.

Every frown and smile is deadly, every move is a fight to the death.

"Ksitigarbha" brings out the "Buddhist Group Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva" to a level far exceeding that of "Mythical Great Luo T3".

With no intention of holding back, the "Emperor of Fengdu," determined to help his friend, went all out.

The "Fengdu Emperor" is the "second-in-command of the Taoist group and the underworld company," so how could he be someone who has only a name without substance?
In comparison, both are evenly matched in the "uncertain future," but Ksitigarbha, who intends to run away with the bucket, will not use this; while in the "predetermined future," "Mythical Great Luo T2·Fengdu Emperor" completely crushes "Mythical Great Luo T3·Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva" in every aspect.

With one side rising and the other falling, the outcome of this life-or-death struggle between the two is already predetermined.

……

"Three moves, and I'll send you on your way!"

A powerful being who holds supreme authority over the order of the underworld and is the ancestor of all ghosts in the heavens, used his hidden true self outside of the "Mythical Great Luo T2·Fengdu Emperor" to fulfill his past acquaintance with "Ksitigarbha"! With one move, "Ksitigarbha's" Bodhisattva status was on the verge of collapse.

The second move was that his resignation application for the "Buddhist Group - Senior Bodhisattva Level" was successfully approved, and "Fengdu Emperor" took the initiative to take over the shackles that the "Buddhist Group" had placed on his friend.

After three moves, the "Mythical Great Luo T3 Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva," having fallen into the rootless water, perished.

"The Path of 'True Infinite Demon'..."

Having broken free from his restraints, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva gave Fengdu Emperor a deep look.

With one step, the accumulation of the "Mythical Great Luo T2" realm was completely settled;

He took two steps and easily completed the self-integration of the "Pangu Transformation Stage";
He took three steps, and from then on he was no longer "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva"; he grasped the direction of "salvation".

"Ugh!"

The great master, who was about to enter the "stage of the struggle for the Dao," let out a long sigh.

He knew that persuasion was useless; no one could awaken someone who was walking on their own path, even if the seeker knew that the path they were on was a complete dead end.

How will you know it won't work if you don't try? So what if it's a dead end?

Is what the vast majority considers "correct" truly "correct"? Can the majority dictate the opinions of the minority?

That's true in theory, and that's true in practice, but those who seek the Way are extreme individuals who knowingly do the impossible.

Just as an ordinary person's life is only a hundred years, and they suffer all kinds of hardships in their short life, and in the end they are just bones, is choosing to die at birth the right choice to reach the end?
There is no absolute, only relative.

Those who seek the Way will not be influenced by the external environment on their "path of self." What they believe to be "correct" is their own "correctness," and they will have no regrets even if the result is death and the dissipation of their Way.

"Thanks!"

The departing Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva did not look back. He waved his hand casually and rode his ultra-luxurious and rare mount, Di Ting, into the distance.

"You're so polite, my foot!!"

The "Emperor of Fengdu," standing still, responded with a mix of laughter and sarcasm.

The "Emperor of Fengdu" glanced down at the entangled karma of the "Buddhist Group" swirling in his palm and said contemptuously, "What can you do to me with such dirty tricks?"

The "Emperor of Fengdu," who had been taught by the "True Infinite Ghost" in his early years, used half of the legacy left by his teacher to turn the karmic entanglements of a "Buddhist Group" "orthodox Bodhisattva level organization" into ashes.

The fact that "True Infinite Demon" enters the dark room does not mean that "True Infinite Demon" is dead.

Both being ancient beings from before the First Paradise Era, "True Infinite Demon," who dared to trample on the rules of the "Game of All Heavens" set by "Those Who Should Not Exist," was far more decisive than "True Infinite Buddha," a "fence-sitter" who only made a decision when he was about to be sent to the dark room.
"Ksitigarbha has set off; I also need to prepare."

The "Emperor of Fengdu" has decided to soon receive the most important part of the legacy left by his half-teacher, which is the authority of the "15th-Level Test Field - Professional Manager".

"Empress Pingxin is easy to talk to; my resignation was much simpler than that of Ksitigarbha."

The "Taoist group" is different from the "Buddhist group".

In the "Taoist group", high-ranking members who have reached a certain position usually retain their positions even after they leave.

For example, "Redeemer of the Way, Great Savior of Suffering, Heavenly Venerable", is still "Six Emperors, Eastern Azure Emperor", at most it has become a nominal position.

……

Different groups have different outcomes.

The case of "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva" having old friends come to see him off is an extremely rare exception. Only "Dragon-Taming Arhat" successfully escaped after "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva".

"Wine and meat pass through the intestines, but Buddha remains in the heart."

If people follow my example, they will be walking down the path of demons.

"The Arhat Who Subdues Dragons" → "Ji Gong," a ragged and filthy old monk, leisurely waving a tattered palm-leaf fan.

Though His surface was covered in filth, His heart was as pure as crystal.

"Go forth, go forth! How joyful, how joyful!"

The significant decline in apparent strength cannot conceal the profound elevation of Ji Gong's state of mind.

He always believed that "Buddha" was not something to be worshipped.

"Buddha" resides in the heart; "Buddha" is a spirit. Everyone is "Buddha within oneself," not the "gods and Buddhas" of the "Buddhist group" established through "mythical propagation"!
Therefore, Ji Gong was willing to risk weakening himself in order to break away from the "Buddhist Group of the Heavenly Forces" whose ideals clashed irreconcilably with his own.

He gave up the comfort of resting under a big tree, but he did not betray the "True Infinite Buddha".

"Ji Gong" wants to promote the spirit of "Buddha" in his own way, which shows the transformation that "True Infinite Buddha" is undergoing.
