Simultaneous travel: My sons all have the qualities of an emperor

Chapter 430 Wutian Sends the Western Buddha, Two Transmigrators Must Have Ideas
In the Western Paradise, there is a great Leiyin Temple, a sacred place in the hearts of countless Buddhist practitioners.

But today, this once magnificent and sacred Buddhist sanctuary is filled with swirling demonic energy, which has transformed into dark clouds.

A demon ascended the steps from the foot of Mount Ling, and not one of the eight Bodhisattvas, four Vajras, five hundred Arhats, three thousand Jiedi, eleven Dayao, or eighteen Garan could stop him for even a moment.

Until the demon entered the main hall and faced the Buddha, who sat on the twelve-petaled lotus throne, radiating boundless Buddhist light.

"Will you leave on your own, or should I see you off?"

Dressed in black, the handsome and extraordinary demon Wutian spoke thus, exuding an aura of 'I am the only one who is supreme' even more than the Buddha, his demonic flames raging to the heavens.

The Buddha confronted him, but remained completely unmoved, chuckling lightly, "This calamity is nothing to speak of."

After a long while, the Buddha still hadn't seen Wutian make a move, and he was taken aback: "Aren't you going to make a move?"

Wu Tian did nothing, only smiled, appearing unusually unfathomable.

Little did the Buddha know that the Wutian before him was neither the arrogant "Wutian Buddha" nor the former "Great Protector of the Buddhist Realm Kinnara".

The unprecedented and unparalleled demon lord before us has been replaced by a transmigrator. Regardless of his previous name, he was probably just a lowly servant in some company.

For now, we can call him Wutian (无天).

Wu Tian was panicking. He was just an ordinary person. Even though he had replaced the demon Wu Tian and possessed Wu Tian's magical powers, if they really fought, well, that would be a disaster.

If the Buddha were to make a move and he didn't react in time, resulting in injuries and a cry of "Ouch, ouch!", then he would be finished.

So he just kept smiling, his mind racing with thoughts of brainstorming. "Stop being so dense, get moving!"

Finally, Wutian chuckled again: "This is the will of Heaven. Why should I take action? From this day forward, the rise of demons and the decline of the Way will last for thirty-three years. If you, Tathagata, wish to defy the will of Heaven, you may attack me."

Wutian's words only made Tathagata more suspicious. Compared to Wutian, who was full of magical power, he did not want to see a Wutian who was full of wisdom.

He could go to the mortal realm to lay low for thirty-three years, but the latter might cause some trouble.

But the will of Heaven has been set, and he is powerless to change it. In this world, the Buddha's path is great, the demon's path is great, but none of them are as great as Heaven. With the blessing of destiny, he is invincible.

If he were to forcibly attack Wutian now, the demon's scheme might succeed. Thinking of this, the Buddha sighed, then clasped his hands together.

"Wu Tian, ​​I cannot defy fate, and neither can you. We will meet again in thirty-three years."

As he spoke, the Buddha's lotus throne rose, and a Buddhist fire was lit. His voice was deep and resonant: "Amitabha."

"All are of one mind, so that two minds may be separated. Shakyamuni in black robes, who governs the three realms, will guide the true nature of the spirit to enter the mortal world, undergo Nirvana and be reborn, and return to the Buddha land. Only by having a son and a lineage can this calamity be resolved, the universe be clear and bright, and the two minds be united."

As he spoke, the Buddha condensed into a point of light and then disappeared into the world.

Seeing this, Wutian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Very good, the Tathagata has been reincarnated, and next up are these Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.

Fortunately, the original body had already subdued these Buddhas and Bodhisattvas by taking action earlier, so these Buddhas and Bodhisattvas dared not act rashly.

At this moment, the Sandalwood Merit Buddha, Tang Sanzang, stepped forward.

Unlike the indecisive Tang Sanzang in the traditional Journey to the West, this Tang Sanzang is known for being capable and skilled in combat, even more ferocious than demons when fighting.

What? You want to reason with me and talk about Buddhism? Sorry, my Buddhist teachings are my fists and feet. Go talk to my fists and feet!

When Wutian saw Tang Sanzang step forward, his eyelids twitched. With Wutian's magical power, he could definitely defeat him.

However, if he accidentally uses too many moves and others discover his weakness, then he'll be in trouble.

Immediately, Wutian decided to use his verbal skills again and start making a ruckus.

Despite being a demon, he speaks of compassion all the time, claiming he will bring justice and peace to the three realms, behaving like a religious leader.

Tang Sanzang naturally didn't believe it, but at that moment, the other Buddhas pulled him back and transmitted their voices, saying, "Sanzang, we are no match for this demon Buddha. Let him talk."
What we need to do now is wait for Buddha to return.

Tang Sanzang then retreated, still glaring angrily at Wutian.

Wutian said with satisfaction, "Alright, everyone, you can meditate on Buddhism in this Great Buddha Hall."

The gods looked at Wutian in disbelief: "You're not going to seal our cultivation?"

Wu Tian was stunned; this was the first time he had ever heard such an unreasonable request.

Wutian laughed loudly: "My ambition lies in the Three Realms, not in you. Why should I seal your cultivation? Just be more obedient. I said I want to bring love and peace to the Three Realms, not empty Buddhist teachings."

The gods were all surprised, but they all behaved themselves, not wanting to anger the demon at this moment.

After a moment's thought, Wutian followed the original text and ordered his demon subordinates to impersonate immortals and Buddhas, but also commanded them not to act recklessly.

The demons are invincible, and they have all won. If they can't even let their brothers have some fun, what's the point of their victory?

"This...isn't appropriate..."

"One of my subordinates, a devil, spoke hesitantly."

A cold glint appeared in Wu Tian's eyes: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"

Wutian had always been very powerful, and he had just sent the Buddha to reincarnate without any fighting. His demon subordinates hurriedly said, "We dare not."

Wu Tian breathed a sigh of relief. Great, the character is on point. Yes.

He then dispatched his four most powerful protectors to search for Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and even Sha Wujing.

He then summoned the Black Lotus of Annihilation, pondering how to utilize his own magical powers and wondering how to break the predetermined fate of the Thirty-Three Heavens.

Human desires can expand. Now that he has become the Buddha of No Heaven, he has the ability to live forever and command the Three Realms. Therefore, he is unwilling to be just the ruler of the Thirty-Three Heavens.

······
On the other hand, in the human world, golden light shone into the Qiao family's home, and Gu Ming witnessed this scene.

Gu Ming, who had been in the world for a long time, was also silently shocked. Could it be that some kind of immortal or powerful being was reincarnated as his son?

But if this happens, will my son still be my son when he grows up in a few years?
With a heavy heart, a big, chubby boy was born not long after. The servant brought the baby to Gu Ming and laughed loudly, "Master, it's the young master."

Gu Ming first looked at his son with affection, then entered the delivery room and looked at his wife.

His wife was pale, the pain of childbirth was obvious, but when she saw the baby being held beside her, she smiled and said, "Husband, let's name our child."

After listening, Gu Ming pondered silently. Since his surname was Qiao, why not name the child Jobs?

But when the words were about to come out, they came out as: "Let's call him Qiao Ling'er." His wife smiled and said: "Qiao Ling'er, what a good name. In Buddhism, there is the term 'spirit child,' so the name Ling'er has a very good meaning. Our child will definitely be exceptionally intelligent in the future."

His wife was laughing, but Gu Ming couldn't laugh. A thought flashed through his mind: Qiao Ling'er, wait!
In an instant, the golden light he had just seen, the story of the Journey to the West he had heard in this world, and this title—everything connected together.

Holy crap, the Buddha has become my son!
Is this the sequel to Journey to the West?!
Gu Ming suddenly felt dizzy and lightheaded; this was a terrible disaster.

Not to mention the future awakening of the Buddha, the restoration of Qiao Ling'er's true self, and the subsequent dissipation of her true nature, just considering that the Qiao family will face annihilation in a dozen years.

Qiao Ling'er's identity is extremely attractive to Wutian's faction. When the black-robed man comes to abduct Qiao Ling'er, he will also take the opportunity to wipe out the Qiao family.

Thinking of this, Gu Ming couldn't help but feel a sense of sorrow. A speck of dust in the era, falling on an ordinary person, would become a mountain.

So, on what should have been a joyous day, Gu Ming fell into deep thought, feeling that in all the world he had, there was no place for him to stand.

No, I must save myself! I must seek immortality and enlightenment to protect myself and my family!

······
When Gu Ming returned, he had neither found the immortals nor sought the Dao; all he had were the ailments left from traversing mountains and valleys.

Destroy it all, I'm tired. Do whatever you want. Anyway, I still have more than ten years. When the white lotus appears, I'll send my family away. By then, it'll be enough for me to die in the family.

Gu Ming thought helplessly, "But in this vast world, who understands my difficulties?"

Three years of seeking immortality led him to realize that the Qiao family was deeply entrenched in a predicament with no way to break free unless external forces intervened. All he could do was live for the moment.

Without thinking, Gu Ming raised his cup to the moon and said, "Life is but a fleeting dream, and a few seasons pass in a lifetime." He then drank the cup to the brim, feeling utterly lost.

Just then, Wu Tian, ​​who was looking down from the sky, felt a sudden jolt in his heart. Wait, this is a poem by Su Shi. Su Shi wasn't even born in this era, was he?

Could it be that Qiao Ling'er's father has the same identity as him?

Wu Tian silently thought to himself that, unlike the original story, he was familiar with the original story and therefore knew where the Qiao family was. So after using the three heavenly realms to comprehend his own cultivation, he came to the mortal realm to see if he could find a way to break the deadlock.

Therefore, they actually saw Qiao Ling'er's father reciting poetry.

Immediately, Wutian made up his mind and used his magic power to condense into sound lines that echoed in the sky.

"Odd changes to even."

Gu Ming was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and after a moment he asked suspiciously, "The sign indicates the quadrant."

Wutian: !
The next moment, Wutian unleashed his magical power, and Gu Ming found himself in a strange place.

A handsome man in black stood before them, but his expression betrayed a subtle change in his demeanor.

When facing a time traveler, Wutian had nothing to hide. He had recently come to realize that since the laws of nature are predetermined, the only way to break them is through change.

What is a variable? He is a variable, and people outside this world are also variables. Therefore, in his view, Gu Ming's appearance is the opportunity for him to break the deadlock.

He didn't put on airs and simply said, "I'm a time traveler, are you one too?"

Gu Ming answered subconsciously, "Yes, that's me."

Wu Tian grasped Gu Ming's hand and said excitedly, "Brother, you must join my team."

Gu Ming was also stunned. Then, recalling the move Wu Tian had just used, he asked, "Who did you transmigrate into?"

"No Heaven".

hiss.

Upon hearing this, Gu Ming instantly felt envious. How come he became a mortal while his colleague became the final boss? Were they playing the same kind of time travel game?

“Brother, you have a good background,” Gu Ming said again.

Wu Tian remained silent at first, then calculated with his fingers, and then smiled and said, "Let's cooperate. I will try my best to break the fixed fate of the Thirty-Three Heavens' Demonic Decline and Dao Increase, and you can also escape the inevitable death of the Qiao family."

Gu Ming remained unmoved. Was this a threat?
Wutian possessed extraordinary supernatural powers and magic, so it wasn't hard for him to see through Gu Ming's thoughts. He simply smiled and said, "It's not my intention. It's just that you've suffered a calamity, which was caused by the Buddha."

"Just now, I calculated with my fingers that during your journey to seek immortality and enlightenment in the past three years, quite a few Taoists saw your exceptional talent and wanted to test you and take you as their disciple."

However, you were blocked by the Buddha's guardian deity, the Golden-Winged Garuda, and thus you encountered no lineage or tradition along your journey.

"Your calamity does not come from me, but from the Buddha. Although Qiao Ling'er is the reincarnation of the Buddha, she has her own consciousness. Only after experiencing the destruction of her family and all kinds of hardships, and knowing that the world is facing a calamity, will she willingly sacrifice herself to become a sacrifice for the Buddha's return."

Upon hearing this, Gu Ming felt a wave of sorrow.

He continued, "Damn, what should I do? I'm just an ordinary person with limited vision and ability. Tell me, tell me your current plan."

Wutian laughed and said, "I have pondered for a long time and realized that the day Tathagata returns will be the day I perish. Therefore, there are only two ways: one is to prevent him from returning, and the other is to be strong enough to defy the will of Heaven."

"Let me tell you about the first method."

Wutian was not surprised. In fact, he didn't know what to do either. He just said, "I will pass on my Taoist magic and supernatural powers to you. You will then have the power to protect yourself. After that, try to influence Qiao Ling'er so that she will not want to do the work for Buddha. Perhaps there will be a chance to turn things around."

Gu Ming asked in surprise, "It's that simple? I don't see why it's so useless."

Wutian helplessly spread his hands: "I have only recently become Wutian. Just three days ago, I was just an ordinary person. What good ideas can you expect from me? Now we can only take it one step at a time."

As far as I'm concerned, whatever the Buddha wants to do, I try to disrupt it first, and then see if there's any turning point.

Gu Ming pondered for a moment and said, "You said that the universe has a predetermined fate, with demons disappearing and the Tao rising in the Thirty-Three Heavens. So what are demons and what is the Tao?"

Wu Tian was about to say, "Is there any need to say that? He himself is definitely the big villain."

He was stunned for a moment, then his body trembled. Yes, what is a demon, what is the Tao? A demon may not be unable to return to the Tao, and the Tao may not be unable to become a demon.

Furthermore, from the perspective of the Way of Heaven, what is beneficial to the world is surely the Way, while what is not beneficial to the world is demonic.

Now that he rules the world, if he uses this time to follow the righteous path and accumulate merit, he might be able to replace the Buddhas of Mount Ling in the eyes of the world.

Wu Tian took a deep breath, and then bowed deeply to Gu Ming: "Brother, you are truly talented."

Gu Ming sighed: "We're just trying our best to live, so that everyone can live well."

Both were delighted and filled with hope for the future.
