Chapter 257 The Western Working Duo

It should be noted that the demon race now controls two Chaos Arrays.

But the eleven Ancestral Witches showed no despair, not even disappointment.

Immediately, Pingxin flipped his hand and a drop of blood appeared. He said, "This is a drop of my essence blood. It can give birth to another Ancestral Witch, which can be considered as fulfilling my goal of attaining the Dao as a member of the Witch Clan."

"But I will no longer intervene in the Lich War as the Lord of the Underworld. I will reside in the depths of the Netherworld. If the Underworld is not yet fully perfected, I will take charge of the entire Underworld Cycle."

Upon hearing this, a drop of her essence blood flew from her hand and landed on Dijiang's hand. Dijiang put away the essence blood and looked at Pingxin, unable to help but ask, "Houtu... Lady Pingxin! Shall we come to see you from now on?"

Although the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons were preserved, Houtu was, after all, their kin and kin from the same origin, born together after countless years of living together. Even if the Thirteenth Ancestral Witch was born, their relationship with them could not be said to be comparable to that with Houtu.

"The Witch Clan is forbidden from entering the Underworld until the Lich War is over!"

He said calmly and in a low voice, "..."

Dijiang couldn't help but show a disappointed expression.

Houtu had told him long ago that even if she became the Lord of the Earthly Dao, she would not be able to intervene in the primordial struggle with the power of Hunyuan.

If she dares to do that, even Nuwa, who once helped them, will no longer help them.

After all, if Hunyuan directly intervened in the war between the Lich King and the Demon King, it would be tantamount to a one-sided victory.

Her becoming a Hunyuan was more about providing a safety net for the Wu tribe.

"good!"

Dijiang had no choice but to nod.

Before Houtu attained enlightenment, she had already explained the advantages and disadvantages to him.

Now it's too late for the Witch Clan to withdraw from the Witch-Demon War. They have already gone deep into the calamity. This is the best outcome. Even if they all perish, they are under the control of reincarnation.

The Witch Clan wouldn't have disappeared almost entirely after the great calamity like the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin Clan.

"Now that this matter is concluded, please return! I will preach in the netherworld a thousand years from now. If anyone wishes to come, please feel free to do so."

He spoke calmly and quietly, and the many powerful beings cried out, "Your Majesty, have mercy!"

Just about to leave.

A sudden change has occurred!

Suddenly, all the creatures in the primordial world saw the western sky and earth change color.

A Bodhi tree stands tall in the center of the western world, shaking violently with countless branches.

The tree radiated a crystal-clear light, its leaves falling and flowers blooming; each flower a world, each leaf a Bodhi tree, exuding an aura of peace, vastness, and compassion.

Moreover, at this moment, the entire West was enveloped by the boundless aura of Jieyin and Zhunti, an aura that caused the heavens and earth to change color and the sky to tremble.

Within the sea of ​​blood, all the great supernatural beings in the primordial world were horrified. They turned around abruptly, their eyelids twitching wildly: "Could it be? Are those two Western beings also about to become saints?"

"We, the Three Pure Ones, have performed great deeds in creating the world, and with our various foundations and great aspirations, we were able to establish our religion and become saints directly. However, the two Western disciples, Jieyin and Zhunti, do not have such foundations. If they want to become saints, they still need to go through some trouble."

Tai Qing said calmly.

Guiyuan also looked in that direction. If he remembered correctly, the two Westerners were able to become saints entirely because they borrowed a lot of merit through the Great Vow Dharma.

In addition, the Great Vow was created by them, and there is also a huge reward for spreading the word.

But the Great Vow Method was passed down by him. These two were not the ancestors who created this path. They did not create the "Lending Method", so how could they become saints?

Under the watchful eyes of all living beings in the primordial world, they saw the Western Land, where Amitabha and Cundi sat under the Bodhi tree, their hands clasped together, their backs against the Bodhi tree, like two of the most ancient Buddhas.

After exchanging a glance, the two addressed the Primordial World in a loud voice, "I am Zhunti, the Guide of the West. Today, I hereby establish a religion in the West, named the Western Religion."

"The Western Religion guides all beings towards goodness, free from suffering, worry, illness, and disaster; it is a land of ultimate bliss. Therefore, the Western Religion's destiny is suppressed by the Western Primordial Spiritual Treasure, the Twelve-Petaled Golden Lotus of Merit. The Western Religion is hereby established!"

"Boom!"

No sooner had the two finished speaking than a loud bang came from the heavens, as if the heavens had responded to their oath to establish a religion.

Immediately, endless primordial fortune gathered, no less than the fortune of Laozi, Yuanshi, and Tongtian when they established their religion.

"Rumble..."

Unfortunately, the foundation of Western religion is shallow, and the thing the two used to suppress their destiny was just a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Twelve-Petaled Golden Lotus, which was even torn in two by Guiyuan.

It has only recovered somewhat after such a long period of recuperation.

This further destabilized the foundation of the Western Religion. The merits of establishing the religion, even if they were enough to make the two saints, were insufficient. The beings of the primordial world sighed, and the Primordial Lord sneered.

"Elder brother is right. These two lack the foundation to become saints!" Yuanshi said calmly. The others were all saints, but these two were shameless scoundrels.

How can we honor him as a saint?

Beneath the Bodhi tree, seeing that the merit in the heavens was clearly insufficient for their ascension to sainthood, Zhunti's face darkened with anxiety as he looked at Jieyin and asked, "Senior brother, what should we do?"

The guide's face grew even more distressed, but he managed a smile and said, "Brother Zhunti, there is no need to worry. I have already made a plan."

Have you not heard that the Three Pure Ones established the three teachings of Chan and Jie, all of which are meant to educate, but how exactly to educate is not mentioned at all, and the specific doctrines of the three teachings are not thoroughly clarified.

They established the religion on a whim.

But you and I, fellow disciples, have long harbored the intention to establish a religion. Our Western Religion's doctrines and methods for attaining enlightenment have been initially perfected and can universally liberate all sentient beings! Simply act as I have instructed.”

"What you say is very good, senior brother. I admire you!" Zhunti laughed loudly upon hearing this.

Thus, all living beings saw that under the Bodhi tree in the Western Land, Jieyin and Zhunti realized their merits were insufficient.

Surprisingly, the two Taoists remained completely calm, sitting cross-legged under the Bodhi tree, asking and answering questions as if they were discussing the Tao.

As the teachings of the supreme truths of Western religion were expounded, the sound of chanting filled the air, instantly calming the minds of countless beings and clearing their spirits, as if they had gained supreme enlightenment.

"If those sentient beings are like illusions, then their bodies and minds are also illusions. How can one use illusion to cultivate illusion? If all illusory natures are extinguished, then there is no mind. Who is there to cultivate? How can one then say that cultivation is like an illusion?"

"If all sentient beings do not cultivate themselves, and constantly dwell in illusions within the cycle of birth and death, never understanding the illusory realm, how can their deluded minds be liberated? I wish that for the sake of all sentient beings in the latter days, sentient beings may be forever freed from all illusions..." In an instant, the teachings of the Western religion were proclaimed.

Suddenly, the Heavenly Dao recognized it, as if it had determined that the Western Religion had more qualifications, and a great deal of merit was constantly gathering in the sky.

Unfortunately, it still didn't fall. Zhunti was dumbfounded. It wasn't enough?

"Sigh! It seems this is the only way."

Jieyin sighed deeply, clasped his hands together, revealing a look of suffering, and suddenly opened his mouth to make forty-eight great vows to the heavens. As soon as these vows were made, the heavens changed color and the earth trembled.

However, it can be seen that although the merits of Heaven and the virtues of humanity have decreased layer by layer, they have not yet fallen.
