Chapter 81 – Mahayana Buddhism

“…….. Since the Buddhist fight, Xu Yinluo pioneered Mahayana Buddhism, its concepts in the western region of the prevalence of enlightenment of the people’s wisdom, fruitful, the western region of the people who believe in Mahayana Buddhism, millions of people, my heart is very pleased.

“Mahayana Buddhism originated in the Central Plains, the Central Plains wilt be able to abandon it, I want to welcome back the Mahayana Buddhism, teach the people, Duo Yu Luohan is Xu Yinluo point of Buddha, Buddhism is profound, this willingness to convert to the imperial court, is the people of the Central Plains of the good fortune.

“I hereby ordain Dhritarashtra as the State Master and Mahayana Buddhism as the State Religion ……..

“Chin up!”

Inside the Golden Palace, there was immediate silence.

The middle-aged eunuch looked out of the great hall and said in a loud voice:

“Duo Luohan, take the order quickly.”

Outside the hall, Duo Er Luohan, wearing a red and yellow robe, slowly stepped across the hall. Treading on the scarlet ground spread through the eunuchs.

The princes looked at each other in a silent exchange, some were confused, some were perplexed, some frowned, but none of them came out in opposition.

The first thing they realized was that His Majesty was trying to pull in the Duo Lohan.

The establishment of Mahayana Buddhism and the appointment of the State Master, with such a generous treatment, was equivalent to helping Dueruo Han to break away from the Buddhism of the Western region, to establish his own school, and to become the “Buddha” of the Buddhism of the Central Plains.

Then, the princes began to think about the possible consequences of establishing Mahayana Buddhism as the state religion, the changes in the pattern of the imperial court, and so on.

But still no one has come forward to oppose it.

The first is that Buddhist monks have no right to interfere in politics, which takes away the most important conflict of interest.

Secondly, the defection of a second-ranking Rohan is enough to weaken the battle power of the Buddhist Sect, which is beneficial but not harmful to the current Dafeng.

Let’s pull people together first, how we suppress them is for later.

Being a scholar who mixes with the temple, he is best at this.

Duo Yu came under the royal seat, folded his hands and said:

“Thank you, Your Majesty!”

Frank took the edict.

In the moment he received the edict, the brain consequences of the bit suddenly emerged, bloomed with infinite Buddha light, and in the void came the Brahma singing, resounding through the hall, echoing in the ears of the public.

Duo Er the whole person, like gold casting, brilliantly bright.

In Huaiqing’s eyes, a majestic qi is draped around Duoyue’s body, clinging to the fruit position, but never entering the body!

……….

Westfield!

The wave of “activation” rushed forward in layers and waves, and wherever it passed, the earth was brought to life, mountains and rivers were brought to life, city walls were brought to life, and the living beings were dissipated and integrated into the rules.

The Buddha’s body had been transformed into mountains, rivers and earth, and His consciousness extended and expanded along with His physical body, merging into the laws of heaven and earth, becoming a part of the laws of heaven and earth, yet retaining its memory.

In a sense, He did refine the entire Western Region, and He incorporated the entire Western Region’s qi into the Buddha Sect, using it as a foundation to annex this law of heaven and earth in the Western Region.

If there are no surprises, He will keep spreading and expanding until He makes the whole of the West His own.

But at that very moment, a majestic stream of qi left Him, pulling out of His body raw and drifting toward the Middle Kingdom in the east.

The speed of the Buddha’s expansion instantly slowed down, and then slowly stopped, and He was unable to assimilate heaven and earth in place of the laws of heaven and earth anymore.

His expanding momentum stops and He seems to lose strength.

Of course, with His position, even if He forcibly devoured the laws of heaven and earth, it wouldn’t matter, and He could still continue, but having lost the shelter of qi, or rather, having lost the credentials of qi, the only end of continuing would be to follow in the footsteps of the Dao Zun.

Assimilated by the rules of heaven and earth, he loses himself.

After a short period of silence, the earth in the Western Region shook violently, like a great earthquake that stretched for tens of thousands of miles.

A crack in the ground hundreds of feet across cracked open, with dense, morose white teeth.

The earth grows a mouth.

These mouths let out the same roar:

“Mahayana Buddhism, Mahayana Buddhism ………”

Aranthra, this holy one cracked its huge mouth and let out a roar that resounded through the heavens and the earth:

“Mahayana Buddhism ……..”

The monks on the holy mountain prostrate themselves in terror and tremble.

Mahayana Buddhism …….. The three Bodhisattvas, Gala Tree, Guangxian, and Liuli, were aghast in their hearts, and each closed their eyes as if they were sensing something or communicating with someone.

In a moment, the three of them opened their eyes and understood the cause, their faces instantly grimaced and gritted their teeth:

“Duo founded Mahayana Buddhism in the Central Plains!”

Mahayana Buddhism has shared some of the Buddha’s qi.

At this juncture, Mahayana Buddhism became a stumbling block that prevented the Buddha from becoming a Westerner.

“I should have snuffed out his unrealistic thoughts in the first place, or had Guangxian send him to reincarnation.”

The Garuda Tree made a vajra rage, and the vajra dharma image of the Lord of Killing emerged behind it.

They hadn’t put much stock in the Duo Er Luohan, but they didn’t want to be caught in the crossfire by this tiny second-ranked Luohan.

Guangxian sighed and pressed all the churning anger into his heart, unable to distinguish between male and female voices, he said:

“For today’s solution, the only way is to stop first and use the method of the Incense and Fire Divine Path to refine the remaining boundaries of the Western Regions into mountain and river seals and take control of them.”

By doing so, the Buddha did not have to risk being assimilated by the laws of heaven and earth, but could also keep the remaining territory firmly in his hands, and then swallow the Mountain and River Seal when he plundered the qi luck in the future.

This move was intended to be used against the Middle Kingdom.

……….

Jing Shan City.

Saren Agu stood on the main peak of the barren Jing Mountains, looking out to the west.

He suddenly frowned, pinched his hands and fingers, divining with his trigrams for a few moments, and let out a hey:

“What a brilliant move, using Mahayana Buddhism to divide the Buddha’s qi and hinder Him from assimilating into the Western Region. Although it doesn’t cure the root cause, it does delay it.”

With a flash of his body, he came to the altar, looked at the statue with the crown of thorns on its head, listened with his side ear for a moment, and bowed:

“I think so too.”

Saren Agu drew out the sheep-driving whip tied around his waist and gently smacked the ground around his feet.

“Pop!”

With the sound of a crisp whip, a dark light surged and the figure of Irb protruded, appearing on the altar.

“Grand Wizard …….”

It’s me again, said Ilb, in his heart!

Saren Agu said faintly:

“Fetch the jade seals of the three Yan Kang Jing countries.”

Ilbu bowed and saluted, then swept towards the distant Jing Mountain City as a ray of dark light.

In a few moments, he returned again in a dark light, with three palm-sized jade seals in his hands.

Saren Agu gazed at the three jade seals, his voice was old and low as he slowly said:

“Among the three kingdoms, the iron cavalry of the State of Jing fought in the north for half a year and suffered more than half of the casualties, and its national strength declined slightly. Kang Guo is near the sea, Wei Yuan led the army to capture the Jing Mountain City in the battle, went through the border of Yan Guo, Kang Guo has not been affected, the national strength is still well preserved.

“On the contrary, it’s the Yan Kingdom, which has experienced the trampling of the iron cavalry led by Wei Yuan, and the attack and defense battle of the Yu Yang Pass, and has seen its national strength depreciated by seventy-five percent.

“That’s it.”

The Grand Sorcerer pointed at the jade seal of the Yan Kingdom and commanded with a face of fleshly pain:

“Go and deliver it to the Buddha’s door.”

This ……. Irb was stunned in disbelief:

“Great Sorcerer. Why did you give it to the Buddhists?”

The Jade Seal is storing the three kingdoms’ qi.

Saren Agu didn’t take it well:

“Duo Yu betrayed, and the Great Founder made him the State Master and established Mahayana Buddhism as the state religion, dividing the Buddha’s qi. He’ll have to work hard if he wants to incarnate in the West.”

Ilb rejoiced:

“Isn’t that a good thing.”

He already knew the secret about the Great Calamity; some time ago, the Great Sorcerer had summoned the Rain Master, Nalan Tianlu, as well as the Spiritual Wisdom Master, Ilbu, and Udabota, to inform the Supremes of what they were trying to do.

For them, the Transcendents of the same system, once the Sorcerer God had incarnated into the Heavenly Dao and the chickens had come home to roost, not only would they be immortal, but they would also be able to rule the Nine States on behalf of the Sorcerer God and become gods on earth.

The higher the grade of the cultivator of each major system, the more emotionally indifferent they are.

In Ilb’s opinion, mortals are like weeds, even if they become extinct, there will always be a crop of them growing in the near future.

In contrast, the replacement of the Heavenly Dao by the Witch God and the eternal immortality of the Witches are truly great endeavors.

Saren Agu shook his head:

“It’s both good and bad, so enlighten yourself.

“This seat will give you a ride.”

The sheep-catching whip wrapped around Irb, and with a forceful fling, a dark light streaked across like a meteor, disappearing into the western sky.

……….

Capital.

Tuo Er Luohan stepped on the nine-petaled lotus platform, clasped his hands towards the crowd behind him, and said:

“Thank you all for your help.”

Master Hengyuan, who was covered in “golden paint” and looked like a golden man, folded his hands and returned the salute:

“It’s a matter of the world’s life, the responsibility is unshirkable, there is no need for Master to say thank you.”

After Asura’s tutelage over a long period of time, Master Hengyuan had now initially accommodated the Fruitfulness of Lohan, and was able to briefly borrow the power to kill thieves, meaning that although he was ostensibly a fourth-ranked Martial Monk, behind his back he was actually a second-ranked Lohan.

Albeit briefly.

Duyue Luohan examined Hengyuan with some complexity, this put-upon monk was actually a born Mahayana Buddhist practitioner, if not for his shallow cultivation or if he gave the other party a few more decades, perhaps the founder of Mahayana Buddhism would not have been him, Duyue.

Instead, it’s Everest of the Green Dragon Temple.

Chu Yuanzhan’s face was serious:

“It’s a matter of great calamity, so it’s only right for us to go and take a look.”

Members of the Heaven and Earth Association such as the Orange Cat Taoist Master, Asuro, and Li Miaozhen were also present, as well as the white-robed Sun Xuanji, who had been appointed by the new Supervisor.

Then there’s the Night Hime with a foxy face.

The western region was dangerous and the situation was unknown, so of course, they could not let Doi Moi Lohan take the risk with his body, so there was the bodyguard group of Tien-Di Association.

Duo said in a deep voice:

“After approaching the Western Region, you all do not have to go in to the Western Region’s boundaries in case something goes wrong.”

The crowd nodded.

Li Lingsu arched his hand:

“Take care, gentlemen, and at the first sign of trouble, run away immediately.

“Alas, I think it’s better to wait for Xu Ning Banquet to come back, that crude martial artist won’t die at leisure, you guys go to the western region, I always think something will happen.”

Li Miaozhen’s willow eyebrows rose:

“You shut up!”

Lina was just good enough to know that she couldn’t help and just waved and didn’t say anything.

The crowd rose up on the wind and turned into streams of light, flying towards the Western Region.

Seeing the crowd leave, Li Lingsu looked at Night Ji and said:

“Miss Nightime, I’ll accompany you to the Southern Border?”

He felt he should do something, and it was never to give Gil a vacation.

Nightgear thought for a moment, then looked to Lina, again:

“Together.”

Can we go back after dinner ……… Lina nodded helplessly:

“Okay.”

Night Ji fished out three more teleportation jade talismans from her bosom and handed them to Li Ling Su and Lina.

They were going to the southern border to see Shenshu, begging him to come out and sit on the big picture, although this trip was mainly to explore and not to fight with the Buddha Sect, the situation was changing rapidly, and they needed to add a percentage of security to their side.

The half-step Martial God who had already regained his peak state was undoubtedly the best candidate.

From the capital to the southern border, there were twelve teleportation arrays along the way.

Xu Qi’an had laid out this “stagecoach” a long time ago, and it came in handy at this time.

Led by Sun Xuanji’s teleportation formation, the crowd of Transcendents swept through the mountains and the earth underneath them, and before dusk, they arrived at the western realm.

Clear light rose and the crowd stopped, Sun Xuanji did not venture closer with them.

Duo Yu Luohan clasped his hands together and saluted towards the crowd, then swept towards the Western Region.

He didn’t fly too far, keeping himself in view of the crowd of Transcendent Powers.

After gazing and sensing for a while, Duo turned around and said:

“There is nothing unusual.”

The withered old monk frowned slightly, this was not quite what he thought.

Asuro and Hengyuan took the lead in the wind and swept towards Du’er’s side, each of them confirming that there was no abnormality in this area after their respective divine thoughts probed the area.

The people of the Heaven and Earth Association continued to move forward with doubts in their minds, and half a quarter of an hour later, they came to a small city, where curls of smoke rose from a house that had a very different architectural style from that of the Central Plains.

Chickens and dogs are full of life.

Tuo Er Luo Han mused:

“Maybe it didn’t spread here, try deeper ……..”

They followed the same rhythm as just now, with the Duyue Luohan taking the lead, and continued to go deeper towards the Western Region.

After traveling forward for an hour, Duoyue Luohan suddenly stopped.

It was already two moments into the eleventh hour, and if it were in Dabong, the setting sun would have already sunk into the horizon and night would have fallen, but in the Western Region, it was even just showing signs of dusk.

Ahead was an endless plain, with a mountain range at the end of it.

The river flows quietly and is uninhabited.

Duo Luohan didn’t dare to go any further, he had to have every cell roaring to escape, every nerve transmitting signals of danger.

He was a Buddhist and did not practice the dangerous precognition of a martial artist.

It’s the chi signaling a warning!

“In danger?”

At nine feet tall, the ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly Asuro flew over, alongside Duo.

He didn’t notice the crisis, the crisis warning of a martial artist was not activated.

At that moment, Asuro saw the mountains in the distance and opened a pair of huge eyes.

……….
