Primordial Era: I am a member of the Jie Sect, and I am the God of Literature.

Inside the Great Thunder Temple, both the Buddha and Dipankara Buddha fell silent.

Guanyin and the others continued to ponder. If they did not give the Emperor an explanation this time, even if Jiang Liuer's true spirit awakened, it would be entangled in endless karma. Moreover, Chen Guangrui and Mantangjiao were both in Chang'an City at the moment...

It seems that Su Shao Chen, the vice leader of the Jie Sect, also secretly intervened in this matter, changing the course of many of the original Buddhist plans, including the fate of Chen Guang Rui.

The Emperor wanted an explanation, which was nothing more than a greater exchange of benefits. But the rise of the West was already hard-won, and there were countless forces secretly watching. If they were to give up even a little bit of their fortune and merit, the West would probably become a wage earner.

This is precisely why all the Buddhist disciples fell silent at this moment.

After an unknown amount of time, the future Buddha Maitreya said in a deep voice, "Since that Human Emperor wants an explanation, we in the West will give you one. In the future, there will be a change of dynasty in the Li Tang dynasty. If the Li Tang dynasty produces outstanding figures afterward, we will give the Li Tang dynasty a chance!"

"If Wu Zetian, whom our Buddhist sect supports, succeeds in usurping the throne in the future, we will give the Li Tang royal family a chance. This will also be considered an explanation to Li Shimin!" The future Buddha Maitreya had already reached the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint.

With the arrival of a once-in-nine-thousand-year opportunity, coupled with his original status as a disciple of the Two Sages of the West and his current veneration as the Buddha of the Future, his accumulated fortune and merits allowed him to naturally break through to the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint.

Therefore, Maitreya, who has broken through to the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint, is considered to be among the top in terms of strength among all Buddhists.

Therefore, he conspired with Huanglong, a Buddhist protector, and Puguang, a Buddhist monk, to determine the future fate of the Li Tang royal family.

However, just as this idea came to them, they sensed the will of Heaven in the darkness. Therefore, whether it was Maitreya, Puguang, or Huanglong, all three believed that it was a foregone conclusion that Wu would replace the Li Tang royal family in the future.

That's why Maitreya created the Great Thunder Temple. Even if it's just one opportunity, it's something countless people need, and it's also something the Li Tang royal family needs.

If it weren't for the fear of hindering the great progress of Journey to the West, Maitreya and his companions would probably never have been willing to give up such a huge benefit to fill the gap left by the great calamity of Journey to the West.

But they are Westerners, so they can never stay out of it.

The clones of Maitreya and Zhao Gongming had already developed self-awareness. Pu Guang and Huang Long joined forces to manipulate the future fate of the Li Tang dynasty. It must be said that Maitreya's cooperation was quite sophisticated.

Although Huanglong was formerly a member of the Chan Sect, after entering the Western Paradise, his relationship with Cihang, Puxian, and others was not very close. In addition, Huanglong also exclusively enjoyed a portion of the Western Paradise's fortune.

Therefore, Huanglong is quite unique in Buddhism, but after entering Buddhism, it's as if he has been given a cheat code.

With the silent support of the Dragon Clan behind him, Huanglong's cultivation level has grown to the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint in this Eternal Era, even surpassing Guanyin, Samantabhadra, Manjushri, and other people who entered Buddhism with him in the past.

Puguang's status in Buddhism is somewhat similar to that of Huanglong, and he has now reached the initial stage of Quasi-Saint.

Although he was nominally the head of the Jie Sect in Buddhism, Duobaolai, after becoming the head of the sect, had a far-reaching karmic connection with the Jie Sect, so much so that even though countless Buddhist disciples knew that the head of the sect and Puguang were both members of the Jie Sect, the relationship between the head of the sect and Puguang was not harmonious...

Therefore, Puguang is a unique figure in Buddhism. Maitreya, who is revered as a disciple of the two saints and the future Buddha, discovered this and came up with a way to increase his merits and influence in Buddhism. The idea of ​​usurping the Li Tang dynasty was something Maitreya suddenly thought of unintentionally!

When Maitreya revealed this matter at the Great Thunderclap Temple, countless high-ranking Buddhist figures looked at him with surprise.

Maitreya had recently become very close to Huanglong and Puguang, and they knew about it to some extent. However, when Maitreya was willing to leave behind the cause and effect of his actions, they were extremely surprised.

Even the Buddha himself, upon hearing this, relaxed his previously furrowed brows and smiled faintly at Maitreya, saying, "Excellent!"

"The future Buddha's actions should be respected in accordance with the merits and fortune of our Buddhist teachings. This Journey to the West kalpa should also have a kalpa set up by the future Buddha. In addition, the past Buddha and the Dharma protector Huanglong can also set up their own kalpas!" At this time, the Tathagata also expressed his goodwill through his actions.

Upon hearing this, Maitreya, Puguang, and Huanglong all stood up and said, "Thank you, Buddha!"

Immediately, Guanyin went to the Nine Provinces with the Buddha's decree. When Li Shimin heard Guanyin's inexplicable and mysterious words, he was very angry but still agreed directly.

Since the other party dared to make this promise, it meant that the West's future schemes were probably quite elaborate, but Li Shimin was completely unaware of it...

This made Li Shimin ponder deeply, but no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't find the problem.

What he didn't know was that the problems were right around him, but Li Shimin still hadn't noticed them.

Upon seeing Guanyin and hearing her and Li Shimin's assurances, Su Shao Chen, who lived in Chang'an, seemed to realize something. He raised an eyebrow and a look of sudden understanding appeared on his face.

Su Shao Chen thought of the Wu Zhou dynasty in later generations, and why it eventually returned power to the Li Tang dynasty. If it was according to Guanyin's words, then Li Longji in the future was probably the only hope left by Buddhism!

…………

With Li Shimin's approval, all the turmoil in Chang'an seemed to have subsided.

Both the Chen Guangrui incident and the incident that erupted at Fang Xuanling's banquet seem to have been completely resolved.

Moreover, as Li Shimin reached an agreement with Buddhism, the calamity of the entire primordial world was scattered in all directions.

Chen Jiangliu was also sent directly to Jinshan Temple by Chen Guangrui to cultivate in seclusion. Both Yin Kaishan and Chen Guangrui knew that this child's origins were probably extraordinary, and he was likely the reincarnation of a great Buddhist master.

Although he is the flesh and blood of Chen Guangrui and Mantangjiao, he is also the reincarnation of a great Buddhist master. He will eventually awaken his true self, and leaving behind a legacy of karma is the best possible outcome.

Neither Chen Guangrui nor Yin Kaishan's lineage had the power to demand an explanation from the West, not even the current Emperor Li Shimin...

As Chen Jiang entered the temple to cultivate, Chen Guangrui also took his wife to assume the position of Lord of Jiangzhou. Li Shimin personally dispatched 90,000 Tian Ce Army soldiers to protect him, and there were also nine Taiyi Golden Immortals and Bad People secretly protecting him. In addition, there were the extraordinary people in Yin Kaishan's mansion, which ensured that Chen Guangrui was safe and sound all the way.

However, when they reached Hongjiang, a demonic wind suddenly swept through, and boundless black energy completely obscured Chen Guangrui, Mantangjiao, and the others. Even the divine senses of a group of Taiyi Golden Immortals could not control it.

A loud laugh rang out, and the oppressive aura of a Great Luo Golden Immortal appeared directly throughout the entire Hongjiang River.

Nine Taiyi Golden Immortals from the Bad Guys and three Taiyi Golden Immortals from the Prime Minister's Mansion appeared together at this moment. The elite Tian Ce Army, the most elite of the 90,000 troops, each possessed the martial arts Golden Immortal realm.

At this moment, the ninety thousand martial arts Golden Immortals simultaneously let out a cold shout, unleashing the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation that stretched for tens of thousands of miles, and the overwhelming martial arts smoke and blood aura dispersed the demonic energy. (End of Chapter)
