Conferred Gods: Start with a Phoenix clone

Chapter 1628: Setting up the Ten Absolute Formations in Hell
The "unable to respond" incident was a bit unexpected, but it was only a minor episode after all. After the "system" returned to normal and most of the Asuras were converted into Buddhist disciples, the Asura clan was doomed.

After hesitating between continuing to fight for Luohu and returning directly to the Blood Sea, Mara still wanted to continue studying the mystery of the "Demon Net", so he immediately led his remaining daughters and confidants to abandon the Blood Pool Hell and go to Luohu's Volcanic Hell for temporary refuge.

Part of the blood pool is connected to the boundless sea of ​​blood. Giving up the blood pool hell is equivalent to giving up the retreat. Unless another blood pool is built somewhere else, it will be difficult for Mara and others to return to the sea of ​​blood.

Closing the door and beating the dog is in the interests of Moon Light and Luo Hou. Both sides quietly cut off Mara's retreat.

The battle lasted for seven days, and Buddhism won a great victory.

So far, the first hell (tongue pulling), the second hell (scissors), the third hell (iron tree), the fifth hell (steamer), the sixth hell (copper pillar), the seventh hell (knife mountain), the tenth hell (ox pit), and the thirteenth hell (blood pool) have been completely cleared out of the eighteen levels of hell.

The Eighteen Levels of Hell are not arranged from top to bottom, one layer after another, but are distributed in a grid-like manner.

Start with the easy and then move on to the difficult. Except for the Blood Pool Hell that has just been cleared, the other levels are relatively less affected by the Demon Sect. The main purpose is still to train soldiers. Looking at the results now, I can only say it's okay.

The emptied hells were sealed off by Ananda and Kasyapa with Moonlight's seal. Unless one's realm was higher than hers, anyone below the Golden Immortal realm would be suppressed the moment they entered, and anyone above the Golden Immortal realm would also be noticed by her.

After the Buddhists conquered the Eight Levels of Hell, they immediately began to reorganize their personnel.

Disciples like Xu Xian and Qing Snake who have fought for half a year will be asked to return to Lingshan to concentrate on copying and chanting scriptures, or do some charity work to repay their debts.

They owe Amitabha Buddha so much!

This thing is like owing more money. The more you owe, the more you owe. You can never pay it back.
Yue Guang could only temporarily postpone the cleaning work of hell, and transferred the disciples who were guarding Lingshan over to send those who owed money back to pay their debts. Every bit of repayment was valuable. Amitabha had been working hard recently and needed a rest.

Luohou has already made a move, and it would be rude not to reciprocate. She has to respond. Moreover, she cannot send a large army to clear out the remaining ten levels of hell, so she can let small troops harass and prevent the Demon Sect from expanding further. This is still possible.

She also had to prepare a big gift for Luohou, so she couldn't let the ten levels of hell sit idle.

Yue Guang gave an order, and soon Ananda brought Yuan Jiao, one of the Ten Heavenly Kings of Jiejiao, into the hall.

Now Yuan Jiao is a true Buddhist disciple, and he immediately pays homage to her according to Buddhist etiquette.

"Disciple pays homage to the Blessed One."

"Please get up."

After saying a few polite words and asking if there were any difficulties in life and practice, Yue Guang then explained his intentions.

"I heard that you brothers had a set of ten absolute formations when you were once so powerful in the prehistoric world. I wonder if you can separate the ten absolute formations and place them in the other ten layers of hell to buy some time for our Buddhist sect to reunite its army?"

Yuan Jiao was stunned. He had considered many possible reasons why Yue Guang might summon him, but this was the only one he hadn't considered. He gave a wry smile, "Your Excellency, my fellow disciples and I have faced many hardships. We've been separated for hundreds of years, and the Ten Absolute Formations have become obsolete."

Yue Guang had anticipated this. After a moment of contemplation, she said, "I can ask for help from the Heavenly Court and Jiejiao. Zhao Jiang, Zhao Tianjun, Dong Quan, Dong Tianjun, and the Golden Light Holy Mother can all be summoned to Lingshan to help you."

Yuan Jiao's heart was shaken. He asked with a glimmer of hope, "But my eldest brother, Qin Wan, has been reduced to ashes. Without him, it would be difficult to re-refine the Ten Absolute Formation."

The Ten Absolute Formations appear to be ten large formations, but in fact they are still related to each other, and the key to this connection lies in Qin Wan's hands. Qin Wan died too early, and the power of the Ten Absolute Formations was not fully exerted.

Moonlight smiled mysteriously: "Buddhism is vast, and there is no one who cannot be saved. Qin Wan fell into the devil's door, and Dong Quan offended the saint. Their crimes are unforgivable, but their karma is all in Buddhism."

Qin Wan fell into the devil's sect and was indeed reduced to ashes in that era. Normally, there is no trace of him left in the world, and his true spirit cannot be found in the List of Gods.

Times have changed! Buddha and the devil are entangled, the two are mutually dependent. In the era of the Conferred Gods, being possessed by the devil was a heinous crime. Now, Buddhist disciples convert demon disciples, and demon disciples in turn seduce and lure Buddhist disciples. One thought can make you a Buddha, and one thought can make you a devil. Being possessed by the devil is really not a big deal.

Before, Qin Wan's true spirit turned into a corpse demon, wandering in hell in a daze. If there was no external intervention, he would sink forever.

Yue Guang discovered his whereabouts early on and sent Shariputra to lead his true spirit back to Lingshan. As long as Yuan Jiao agreed, he could use the Eight Treasures Merit Pool to help Qin Wan rebuild his body.

Dong Quan was beaten to death by Zhunti. After his death, his true spirit was listed and served as an official in the Heavenly Court. This was more convenient. Yue Guang wrote a pardon document, allowing him to make meritorious contributions while serving his sentence, and the previous offense against Zhunti was forgiven.

Yuan Jiao was confused. After hundreds of years of separation, was there any chance for the ten brothers to reunite?

He stood there in a daze, and only came to his senses when Ananda beside him coughed.

"But, World Honored One, the Ten Absolute Formations require a large amount of spiritual materials, some of which are probably extremely rare. It took us brothers and sisters hundreds of years to collect them all."

Moonlight smiled faintly: "We are all outsiders, and the West is a barren land. However, there are some spiritual materials in the treasury. Later, you can ask Jiaye to take you to see them. If they are not enough, you can borrow some from the Heavenly Palace and return them later."

For the Ten Celestial Lords, the spiritual materials needed to set up the Ten Absolute Formations would take them most of their lives to collect. This was mainly due to their low realms. If you can't find something at the Celestial Immortal realm, can't you find it at the Golden Immortal realm? If it doesn't exist in the Main World, then what about the Great Thousand Worlds and the Small Thousand Worlds?
The power of a sect is countless times greater than that of the ten brothers. What they consider to be a problem is not a problem for Buddhism.

Using the Ten Absolute Formations will also involve the issue of killing. Once these ten formations are deployed, the casualties will be extremely tragic.

Moonlight had made arrangements early on, asking those who belonged to the Buddhist sect to avoid the hells with living beings. Killing Asuras is a violation of the precepts against killing, but does killing zombies also violate the precepts against killing?

The premise of not killing is that the thing must be a living being. Corpse demons and vengeful ghosts are not considered living beings no matter how you look at it. Is the life of a zombie also a life? There is no such saying in the prehistoric world.

Yuan Jiao also figured out the key, and was filled with excitement, so he agreed on the spot. He wrote several letters to persuade his fellow disciples, and then followed Jiaye to Lingshan to look for spiritual materials for refining the Ten Absolute Formations.
