People in Jiejiao practice Taoism and become gods

Chapter 312 [Buddhism’s Great Disaster, Lure the Snake Out of the Hole] (Subscribe)
Although there are different ideas and some conflicts among the various factions of Buddhism, they will not erupt in a short period of time without someone pushing them forward.

This point, the Taoist Master Jie Yin is very sure!
The concepts of Mahayana Buddhism and Hinayana Buddhism came from him and Zhunti respectively, the concepts of Zen Buddhism came from Cihang, Manjusri, Samantabhadra and others, the concepts of Huayan Buddhism came from Ksitigarbha, and the concepts of Dharma Nature Buddhism and Tantric Buddhism came from Dipankara and Brahma respectively...

Behind every Buddhist concept or every Buddhist branch, there is a saint or several monks with great supernatural powers.

For example, Zen Buddhism and Cihang and others came from the School of Manifestation after all. The ideas of Zen Buddhism are more or less mixed with some of the teachings of the School of Manifestation.

Another example is Tantric Buddhism. Brahma and others are from the Asura clan. Influenced by the Taoist master of the Styx, the philosophy of Tantric Buddhism appears to be particularly murderous and decisive.

This is a good thing and a bad thing!
Just as the Five Immortals of Zhoutian and the Nine Immortals of Hunyuan evolved in the Taoist way, the emergence of new concepts can bring the fortune of Buddhism to a higher level.

But if it is not handled properly, it may fall apart and lead to the decline of Buddhism.

The Ksitigarbha Taoist frowned slightly and looked at the Jie Yin Taoist and said, "Teacher, who do you think is behind the dispute over Buddhist concepts?"

"Are they the ones from the Dao Sect?"

Although Buddhism has flourished over the years, the three Taoist sects have always been superior to Buddhism, especially the Jiejiao founded by Master Tongtian, with its four Hunyuan Daluo Jinxians, which can rival Buddhism alone.

Taoism and Chanism should not be underestimated either.

In Taoism, Taiqing Laozi is unfathomable, Taixuan also has a profound foundation, and Xuandu and Donghua are both likely to achieve enlightenment in the future.

In the orthodox teaching, Yuanshi Tianzun is in charge of the way of heaven, which is difficult to predict. Yun Zhongzi has achieved enlightenment and become a saint, and has awakened the memories of Patriarch Hongyun. Jie Yin and Zhunti both owe each other a cause and effect!

"Probably not!"

Taoist Jie Yin shook his head: "With a powerful enemy at hand, the Taoist Primordial Daluo Jinxian will not do such an unwise thing!"

Among the Three Pure Ones, Taiqing Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun are both extremely good at planning.

Although Master Tongtian does not like to plan, Xuanqing is no pushover. Not only can he predict the future with the help of the Avenue of Destiny, he also likes to hide, and no one can tell his depth.

But in order to face the impending catastrophe, the Three Pure Ones took the initiative to summon all the saints, gave up some of their interests, and promoted the continuous birth of saints in the prehistoric world. At this critical juncture, they would definitely not make things difficult for Buddhism.

In terms of the overall situation, the Taoist Jie Yin still trusts the Three Pure Ones and others more.

"Who is that?"

Taoist Ksitigarbha looked towards the Netherworld, then shook his head: "Wu Clan? They now have ten Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, and their strength is comparable to that of the Taoist sect. There is no need for them to use such means!"

"Moreover, the Wu Clan always likes to speak with strength and is unlikely to play tricks!"

"Could it be the demon race?"

Taoist Ksitigarbha could not help but look at Taoist Jie Yin and Taoist Zhunti. He also knew that Buddhism had some cause and effect relationship with Kunpeng, Donghuang Taiyi and Di Jun.

The cause and effect relationship with Kunpeng came from the Zixiao Palace in the past, when Jie Yin stole the other's seat.

As for the cause and effect with Emperor Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, it comes from the Ten Suns Sky Patrol. During the time of the witches and demons’ catastrophe, Jie Yin and Zhunti did a lot of plotting against the demon clan.

after all……

As long as the two races of warlocks and liches do not decline, it will be impossible for the West to rise.

"Just wait and see what happens!"

Taoist Zhunti coughed lightly and did not dwell on this issue. In the past, in order to revitalize the West, he had created causal relationships with many living beings.

Yun Zhongzi, Zhen Yuanzi, Kunpeng, Di Jun, Donghuang Taiyi, Minghe...

Even he himself didn't know how many powerful people he had offended without realizing it.

……

Under the deliberate indulgence of Jie Yin and Zhunti, the ideological disputes within Buddhism became increasingly fierce, with some people even clamoring for Jin Chanzi to abdicate.

Maitreya, Mahasthamaprapta and Kinnara, the direct disciples of Buddhism and the backbone of the society today, have been pushed to the forefront.

Many Buddhist elders believe that these three are more suitable to lead Buddhism.

Those practitioners who later joined Buddhism, or those who possessed great powers in disguise, also wanted to take advantage of the power change in Buddhism to gain more luck, and they all fanned the flames behind the scenes.

Therefore, under the encouragement of many great masters with supernatural powers, Jin Chanzi, the present Buddha, had no choice but to come out of retreat and proposed to hold the Ullambana Festival in the Buddhist world to debate sutras and discuss the Dharma. As long as there was someone who could surpass him in Buddhism, he would abdicate and follow the example of the ancient Buddha Dipankara, and step down from the position of Buddha!
When these words were spoken, the whole world was shocked. Countless Buddhist disciples gathered on Mount Sumeru and entered the Buddhist world under the guidance of the two venerables Ananda and Kashyapa.

Just to see the spectacle!
In the eyes of many Buddhist disciples, the debates among the Buddhas are no less important than the sermons of saints, and this debate is about the future of Buddhism as a whole.

Except for a few ascetic monks, all the monks above the Golden Immortals of Buddhism gathered in the Buddhist world. For a moment, the Buddha's light illuminated all the worlds.

Maitreya was the first to challenge Jin Chanzi: "May I ask Sandalwood Merit Buddha, what is Buddha?"

What is Buddha?
This is a question that has been debated for a long time in Buddhism. Some people believe that the one who has great supernatural powers and the ability to save all living beings is the Buddha!

Some people also believe that only by sacrificing one's life for righteousness, like Ksitigarbha in the past, and saving all sentient beings and attaining Bodhi, can one be called a true Buddha!
Of course, some people also believe that Buddha is just an idea and everyone can become a Buddha. Buddha is to turn a concept that does not exist in the world into reality, which is something that ordinary people cannot do, so he can be called a true Buddha.

There are also some people who believe that the Buddhist teachings are boundless and that if one puts down the butcher knife, one can become a Buddha instantly.

In the eyes of some Buddhist disciples, Buddhahood and Buddha are two different things. In the Buddhist world, there are actually quite a few Buddhas who are not involved in cause and effect.

Simply put, some Buddhas are just great supernatural beings with a nominal title in Buddhism!

Not really a Buddha!
Jin Chanzi's expression remained unchanged. He just pointed to the sky with one hand and to the ground with the other: "I am the only one who is supreme in heaven and on earth. As long as all living beings worship me, I will be the Buddha!"

Then, he began to expound the mysteries of Buddhism. In the void, there were heavenly sounds, wafts of strange fragrance, and endless Buddha's light that penetrated the past, present and future.

Maitreya was not willing to be outdone, and he also began to expound the sutras and discuss the Dharma, and a pure land of stars appeared behind him.

Medicine Buddha, Mahasthamaprapta, Akasagarbha, Sunlight, Moonlight, Cihang, Manjusri, and Kukkuragupta... These great masters who have a place in Buddhism, all spoke up to explain their understanding of the Buddha.

Many Buddhist disciples were immersed in it, closing their eyes to comprehend the mysteries of Buddhism.

The golden cicada scab sat upright on the lotus platform, with his Dharma body radiating golden light behind him. There were bursts of Sanskrit sounds all around, and billions of golden lotuses fell from the void.

Maitreya also revealed his own Dharma image, spitting out lotus flowers from his mouth, and confronted Jin Chanzi tit for tat.

Upon seeing this, Medicine Master was not willing to be outdone. A piece of lapis lazuli pure land emerged, with the sun and the moon in his eyes, emitting bright light, revealing the appearance of supreme wisdom.

Behind Cihang, thirty-three Dharma images appeared, including Willow Guanyin, Fish Basket Guanyin, etc. Although they had not attained Buddhahood, their aura was superior to that of everyone else.

Boom!

The void roared, and the great Dao became apparent. As everyone revealed their golden bodies, the dispute over the Buddhas' ideas immediately evolved into a dispute over each other's great Daos.

The Buddhas did not give in.

Suddenly, a glimmer flashed in Jin Chanzi's eyes, and he looked at Kinnara beside him and said, "Kinnara, what do you think is Buddha?"

Upon hearing this, all the Buddhas could not help but look at Kinnara. Among the saint’s several direct disciples, Kinnara was the only one who had not participated in the debate!
Kinnara smiled slightly, revealing an unprecedented domineering attitude.

"The Buddha is actually a demon!"

In an instant, endless demonic energy rose up, complementing the Buddha's light, making it look like both a god and a demon, with the Buddha's nature and the demonic nature blending perfectly together.

"Be bold!"

Someone started to scold.

But before he could finish his words, Jin Chanzi nodded slowly and said, "You are right, the Buddha is actually a demon!"

Upon hearing this, the future Buddha Maitreya also said: "Buddha and devil are one, Buddha is originally a devil!"

Venerable Ananda took a step forward, revealing a terrifying demonic aura: "The Buddha is actually a demon!"

Then, Kukkuragupta Buddha, Mahabrahma Buddha, Vimala Bodhisattva, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, and thousands of Arhats and Vajra also spoke up one after another: "Buddha and devil are one, Buddha is originally a devil!"

Boom! Suddenly, waves of demonic sounds rang out in the void, shocking the minds of the Buddhist disciples in the Buddhist world.

What did they hear?
The present Buddha Jin Chanzi, the future Buddha Maitreya, as well as the saint’s direct disciples Kinnara, Lord Brahma Buddha, Vimala Bodhisattva, these mainstays of Buddhism, actually publicly proclaimed...that the Buddha was originally a demon?
"No!"

Some Buddhist disciples could not accept this reality and were immediately invaded by their inner demons. In just a moment, they were enveloped by endless demonic energy.

No one below Daluo is spared.

Above Daluo, Cihang, Yaoshi and others could still barely stay awake, but in a trance, endless demonic sounds echoed in their ears.

Kinnara laughed loudly, stepped forward, and came to the position of Jin Chanzi: "I will sit on the lotus platform!"

Before he finished speaking, Kinnara, who was wrapped in evil spirit, sat in the current position of Buddha.

"wrong!"

"You are not Kinnara!"

The Taoist Medicine Master realized it later, and a look of panic appeared on his face: "You are the Demon Ancestor Luohou!"

Boom!

Endless demonic sounds rang out, suppressing the pharmacist. The Buddha's light and the demonic light instantly merged into one.

"That's right!"

Kinnara nodded and transformed into the appearance of Demon Ancestor Rahu: "I am Demon Ancestor Rahu, but Buddha and demon are one, I am also Buddha Ancestor Wu Tian! There is no law or heaven, no him and no me, no form or image, only I am supreme!"

In an instant, endless "original demonic energy" swept towards the pharmacist and others. In Buddhism, there are methods of salvation that can save all living beings, and in the magic world, there are also methods of transforming demons that can lead people into demons.

Luohou seized the flaws in the hearts of these Buddhist disciples and with just a little inducement, he was able to make them unknowingly fall into the arms of the devil.

"Luo Hou, you are looking for death!"

The voice of the Taoist Jie Yin was heard. As a Buddhist saint, he eventually discovered the abnormality in the Buddhist world and headed straight for where Luo Hou was.

He didn't expect that Luohou would actually attack his Buddhist sect, and that his attack would hit the vital points directly, causing tens of thousands of elite disciples to fall into the evil path.

Upon seeing this, the Taoists Zhunti, Randeng, and Ksitigarbha also took out their magic weapons and used several terrifying Buddhist magical powers to attack Rāhu.

"The Divine Thunder of Annihilation!"

"Bodhi Magic!"

"Lapis Lazuli Pure Fire!"

"Door of hell!"

Luohu was not afraid at all. With a thought, he asked Jin Chanzi, Maitreya, Kukkusun and Mahabrahma, four great masters with supernatural powers, to stand in front of him.

The demonic energy was so powerful that it swept across all directions and shook the void. In just a moment, those Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats who had fallen into the demonic path turned into countless relics and flew towards Rāhu.

Boom!

Luohu's aura suddenly surged, and in a flash, he forged a demon body. The aura of the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian swept towards the entire Buddhist world.

In the dark, there was a force of heaven blessing him. The terrifying power immediately caused the Buddhist world to tend to collapse.

"you dare!"

The Taoist Jie Yin was furious. He had not expected that Luo Hou, not only was plotting against Buddhism, but he was also using Buddhist disciples as a shield.

But he couldn't just ignore it. Looking at Maitreya and others who were possessed by demons, he could only forcibly retract his magical powers and then stare at the Demon Ancestor Rāhu viciously.

"Hahaha!"

Seeing this, Luohou couldn't help but laugh and said, "Buddha is originally a demon. Fellow Taoists, why don't you join my demonic path?"

"The devil has transformed into many forms!"

Before he finished speaking, Luohu did not retreat but advanced towards several Buddhist saints.

"The Treasure Banner of Reception!"

Upon seeing this, the Taoist Jie Yin hurriedly summoned his magic treasure to resist, but who knew that Luohou only made a feint and disappeared directly into the Buddhist world.

Before leaving, he also directly swallowed Jin Chanzi, Maitreya, Mahabrahma, Lu Jusun and others.

"The Divine Thunder of Annihilation!"

The Taoist Master Jie Yin was furious and rushed towards Luohu. Those below the saints are all ants, and those Buddhist disciples had no power to resist Luohu.

But they are different.

Zhunti, Dipankara and Ksitigarbha each used their magical powers to kill Rāhu here, and the brilliant Buddha's light instantly pierced through the universe.

Although Rāhu is not in his prime now, he has regained his physical body and is not afraid of the fighting power of the four saints of Buddhism.

only……

He also didn't want to get entangled with everyone.

Because, at this instant, mighty thunder appeared in the sky!

It was Yuanshi Tianzun who took action!

He also didn't expect that Luohu would escape. He suppressed part of Luohu's origin, but his true spirit took the opportunity to infiltrate Buddhism.

Moreover, when Lu Jusun joined Buddhism under his order, he accidentally suffered a disaster.

Whether it is to maintain the dignity of heaven, to avenge the detention of Sun, or to help Buddhism, he must keep Luohu.

Boom!

The mighty power of heaven spread, sweeping across the universe, erupting with ultimate destructive force.

At the same time, other saints also discovered something unusual near Mount Sumeru, especially Zulong and Shi Qilin, who had a grudge with Luohou. They turned into a rainbow light and descended near Mount Sumeru.

During the Longhan catastrophe, Luohou, in order to provoke internal strife among the three tribes, slaughtered the dragon and qilin tribes in large numbers while pretending to be from other races.

Yuan Feng also wanted to take action.

But Xuanqing stopped her!

Such a great change happened in the ancient times. As long as the "eliminated one" was in the ancient times, he would definitely pay attention to the situation of Mount Sumeru.

At this time, if Yuan Feng used blood causality to explore the whereabouts of Kong Xuan, perhaps he could use it to deduce the whereabouts of Kong Xuan and others.

After Xuanqing found Yuanfeng, the two of them had been trying to deduce Kong Xuan's whereabouts.

But nothing was gained!
At this moment, although Luohou appeared and killed countless Buddhist disciples, Xuanqing also knew that this was definitely a good opportunity to lure the snake out of its hole.

as predicted!

Just when the saints were chasing Luohou, Xuanqing deduced Kong Xuan and others again, and found that the chaotic fog that blocked his deduction had dissipated a lot.

He guessed that this was most likely the other party who came out of the "Chaos Pearl" to observe the battle among the saints and look for an opportunity to achieve his own goals!

Boom!

In an instant, the power of destiny shook, and it tried to break through the fog of chaos.
