I!The Many Treasures Tathagata

Chapter 69

After the death of King Zhou You, with the help of Chanjiao, Prince Yijiu came to the throne, also known as King Ping of Zhou.

In view of the dilapidation of Haojing and the threat of the dog army, he moved east to Luoyang, and the Western Zhou Dynasty became the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

Although the Eastern Zhou Dynasty continued the rule of the Zhou Dynasty in name, in fact, compared with the Western Zhou Dynasty, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty's sphere of influence was greatly reduced, and its control over the world was not as good as before.

The major vassal states conquered and annexed each other, entering the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

The vassal states are rich and strong, and they are recruiting talents everywhere.

In order to get their thoughts and political opinions recognized by the monarchs of the vassal states, countless scholars promoted them in the world.

As a result, schools of thought have been established one after another, writing books and discussing, criticizing and arguing with each other.

This is also the beginning of various schools of thought.

It is called Baijia, but there are actually thousands of them.

In the past, the educational system of the human race was dominated by human education and elucidation education, and a drop of water did not enter.

Now Buddhism's offensive and elucidation of teachings is like the breeze wrinkling a pool of spring water.

Facing the huge luck of the human race, everyone wants to share the pie, and forces big and small have settled down one after another.

In the memory of Chen Duobao's previous life, thousands of schools of thought collided and merged with each other, and in the end there were only twelve schools left.

There are powerful backers behind these twelve schools of thought. Some people interpreted the three major sects, including witches, demons, heaven, and hell.

Now the strong invasion of Buddhism has made the collision of these academic ideas more intense.

But obviously, King Zhou Ping at this time has not realized that he is no longer the real co-lord of the world.

He was in the prime of his life, and he re-established the Eastern Zhou Dynasty under the mess of his father Zhou Youwang, Feng Huo and the princes.

This great feat of reshaping the world filled him with extremely strong self-confidence.

Facing the embarrassing situation that the major vassal states did not obey the order and the imperial order could not leave Luoyang, he was confident that with his efforts, the establishment of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was just the beginning.

He can reintegrate this fragmented world, restore the glory of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and even surpass the peak, transforming from Zhou Tianzi to Human Emperor.

And the first step is to surrender Shaolin Temple.

After all, King Zhou Ping was the master of Zhongxing. Although he was not a famous wise king, he was not a faint king either. He had vision, planning and layout.

He doesn't know the battle between immortals and Buddhas in the upper realm, but he can see that the rapid collapse of the situation is definitely closely related to the sudden appearance of Buddhism.

More importantly, Shaolin Temple is at the foot of Songshan Mountain.

And Songshan is right next to Luoyang...

This is very embarrassing.

The control area of ​​the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was already very small, and outsiders came to sleep soundly in the sleeping area.

King Ping of Zhou issued a decree of the Son of Heaven, designating Buddhism as a cult, and invited strange people from all over the world to come to Mount Song to exterminate Buddhism.

It's just that after the emperor's decree was promulgated, there were very few responders, which made King Ping of Zhou even more embarrassed.

Strange people and strangers are people in the middle of practice. Those who come from regular sects must know the power of Buddhism.

People who come from casual cultivators and goblins, although they don't know how strong Buddhism is, they are not stupid.

Seeing the great momentum of Buddhism, countless temples are being built everywhere in Dongsheng Shenzhou and Nanzhan Buzhou.

Practitioners cherish their lives the most, and it is okay to let them add to the icing on the cake, but it is impossible to let them risk their lives for some wealth in the world.

"Decree of the Son of Heaven of the Human Race: After the success of exterminating the Buddha, rewards will be given for meritorious deeds. The person who has contributed the most and surpassed all heroes in skills will be established as the national teacher, and the school he founded will be established as the national religion!"

King Zhou Ping felt that his emperor's majesty had been seriously challenged, and in anger, he re-issued the emperor's decree.

This time the reward is no small matter.

In the past, the state religion of the Western Zhou Dynasty was Chanjiao, and Chanjiao gained immeasurable merit and good luck because of this.

Although the Eastern Zhou Dynasty declined, it was still nominally the co-lord of the world after all, and it could also influence and control the luck of the human race.

Under the reward, there must be a brave man!

This time, countless mountain cultivators and goblins and ghosts gathered in Luoyang.

Even the orthodox disciples of some small sects knew the power of Buddhism, but in the face of huge interests, they did not hold back their hearts.

They are betting that Renjiao and Chanjiao will definitely not allow Buddhism to preach. Under the counterattack of Renjiao and Chanjiao, Buddhism may not have time to take care of the struggle in the human world.

One day in the sky, one year on the earth.

It is impossible for the struggle between Humanism, Interpretation, and Buddhism in the upper realm to end in a short period of time.

By the time the winner is determined in the upper realm, the human realm is probably already in turmoil.

At that time, they had already established the state religion for many years, and the human race had earned a lot of merit and fortune.

Maybe someone with good aptitude and comprehension has passed the tribulation and ascended to the upper realm to be at ease.

If you are lucky enough to join the Heavenly Court, you will not be afraid of revenge from Buddhism or Chanjiao.

After all, I was born in a small sect, and I don't know the horrors of human education, interpretation, and Buddhism, let alone what a saint is.

At this time, sitting cross-legged in the sky above Kunlun Mountain, the giant Buddha exuding golden light of immeasurable merits and virtues all over his body looked at the changes of the heavens and clouds in front of him with compassionate eyes.

He glanced at the human world with undetectable eyes, especially when he saw the two little snakes among the goblins and ghosts, Nianhua smiled slightly.

Bodhidharma has not been born for a long time, although under the guidance of his clone, he has made rapid progress, and now he is about to achieve the status of Arhat.

Arhat is the highest attainment status of Buddhism in the human world, which is equivalent to the golden fairy realm.

But blindly cultivating behind closed doors, although the realm has progressed rapidly, the foundation is a bit vain.

If it goes on like this, it will be difficult to become a master after all.

The great reputation of Bodhidharma in the previous life was achieved with one punch and one kick.

Legends such as crossing the river with a reed, the golden bell is not broken, and the Yijing washing the marrow have just created Shaolin.

A little sprites can just sharpen Bodhidharma.

Compared with the Western Buddhism of Jieyin and Zhunti, it is the Tantra that Chen Duobao intends to define.

Zen Buddhism has absorbed many teachings such as Taoism and Confucianism in the East, and it is even more recognized by the people of the East.

If you make good use of this opportunity, you can defeat Zhou Tianzi cleanly.

The reputation of Shaolin Zen can be spread all over the world in an instant, and the speed of preaching will be greatly accelerated.

……

On Jinao Island, in the main hall of Biyou Palace.

Immortal Golden Hoop looked towards the direction of Luoyang in the human world, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he asked, "Sister Zhang, is it too early to send Xiaobai Xiaoqing into the world?"

"Although the talents and comprehension of the two of them are not bad, after all, the training time is too short."

Jieyin and Zhunti were still not at ease with Duobao, and secretly sent a voice transmission to Ma Sui, asking him to test the Wudang Virgin and see if Duobao still has feelings for Jiejiao.

In these years, apart from practicing, the Holy Mother of Wudang has also taken in three apprentices, namely Bai Suzhen, Cen Biqing and Zhong Wuyan.

This time the Buddhist sect attacked and elucidated the teachings, the Holy Mother of Wudang took the initiative to send Bai Suzhen and Cen Biqing to find an opportunity to cause trouble for Shaolin Zen.

These actions seem to show that there is really a falling out between Wudang Shengmu and Duobao.

But Ma Sui always felt that something was wrong, and felt that everything went too smoothly.

"It's okay, I just sent them to explore the way, and I don't expect them to really defeat Shaolin Zen."

"It's just that Wu Jiejiao has been silent for too long. This time, Buddhism and Chanjiao are competing. Such a good opportunity should not be missed."

The Virgin of Wudang said calmly, after such a long period of training, her acting skills have reached the point of perfection.

She knew that everything she had done could not completely dispel Ma Sui's suspicion.

But it doesn't matter, as long as no flaws are revealed, Ma Sui has no choice but to believe it.
