Honghuang: I am Qitian and I want to fight for the throne

Chapter 258: The Great Way of Transcendence is the Immortal Sword Pointing to the Underworld with Ksitigarbha

To guide and establish Buddhism for Cundi.

Many powerful people in the ancient East were extremely angry. This was a naked betrayal!

Ever since Daoist Ancestor Hongjun said "the leader of Xuanmen", and began preaching afterwards, all the cultivators in prehistoric times have acquiesced to the fact that they are members of Xuanmen.

now,

However, there were two traitors who broke out from the Xuanmen and established the Buddhist sect. How could this not make them angry and annoyed!
only,
The two saints rebelled against Xuanmen. Even if they wanted to clean up Xuanmen, they did not have the strength to do so.

Therefore,
These Xuanmen monks all hoped that the Taoist Patriarch would personally punish the rebellious ones.

Of course, Hongjun in the Zixiao Palace was aware of the changes in the ancient times.

However, he was in harmony with the Way of Heaven and knew that the emergence of Buddhism was a trend, so he did not try to stop it.

But his eyes penetrated the chaos and looked towards the ancient west.

Looking at the Buddha's light on Jie Yin and Zhunti, a strange color flashed in his eyes.

Then he stretched out his hand and drew a line in the air.

"Om~"

With a faint sound, something seemed to be cut off.

"The relationship between master and disciple is over, and the cause and effect are gone!"

Hongjun did not punish them, but simply cut off the ties between Jieyin and Zhunti and Xuanmen.

I also took the opportunity to settle a cause and effect from past years.

But that’s all. For Hongjun, the most important thing now is to attain enlightenment and practice.

Regardless of the initial battle between Taoism and demons, or his later sagehood and preaching, or his final act of uniting himself with the Way of Heaven, his goal from beginning to end was only one -

Breakthrough Hunyuan Wuji!

He wanted to become a Half-Step Great Dao Immortal like Pangu, or even higher!

This was the oath he made when he was still the Chaos Demon God and was almost killed by Pangu's axe. It was also his lifelong goal.

to this end,

He even gave up the dignity of the Chaos Demon God and put aside his hatred for Pangu. He chose to reincarnate as a creature in the lower world opened up by Pangu and practice again.

However, after countless years, he has only reached the late stage of the Supreme Saint, which is equivalent to the Hunyuan Wuji Daluo Jinxian.

His cultivation level is still far behind that of the Chaos Demon God.

Now he doesn't have much time to care about other things.

If he was not in accordance with the laws of nature and had no choice, he would not care even if all the endless lives in the entire prehistoric world were extinct.

Even now,

Only a part of Hongjun's soul truly controls the body, and the vast majority of his soul has been immersed in enlightenment.

“To this day, I have thoroughly comprehended a total of two thousand great ways. I only need to comprehend the last one thousand. Then I can break free from the shackles of the heavenly way and step into the supreme realm of the half-step great way that I have never stepped into in my previous life.

If I can further integrate these three thousand great ways into one, I will be able to transcend the great ways and become an immortal master on par with the great ways!"

Thinking of this,
Hongjun felt even more anxious and withdrew his gaze.

Although it is basically certain that Jie Yin was one of his mortal enemies during the chaos, he no longer takes him seriously now.

His sights are already set higher.

All these things in the ancient world are insignificant to him.

"My path to immortality has been completed. You Buddhas and demons can continue to fight!"

Hongjun said lightly, and then took back the soul, leaving only a trace of consciousness to execute the great trend of the world, and the rest of his body and mind were immersed in enlightenment.

Huaguoshan, Shuiliandong.

Qi Tian's golden eyes pierced through the void and looked at the Buddha's light that filled the sky in the west. He couldn't help but mutter to himself:
"It's exactly the same! It seems he is still alive!"

Qi Tian felt some emotion in his heart.

The golden bodies of Jie Yin and Zhunti with thousands of heads and arms are exactly the same as the Buddha's demon gods that the Chaos Demon Ape had seen during the chaos.

If someone said that it was Jie Yin who figured it out, he would not believe it even if you kill him.

The immortal Hongjun, the devil Rahu, and the Buddha Jieyin!
This is to continue the unfinished grudges during the chaos!

"But at present, Hongjun has already won without any dispute. It depends on Jieyin and Luohou whether the Buddha is stronger or the devil is stronger. However, Luohou was defeated miserably in the battle between Tao and Devil with Hongjun. He is no match for Jieyin now, and it is estimated that Luohou will not take action in the short term."

Thoughts surged in Qi Tian’s mind.

I can't help but think of the battle between Buddha and demons after Journey to the West in later generations.

"Rāhu, Rāhu, you have to hurry up, otherwise when my path is perfected, there will be no need for you to compete with the Buddha!"

"Strange? Why didn't you make a move?"

Shouyang Mountain, in the Eight Views Palace.

After waiting for a long time and seeing no unusual movement, Taiqing began to have a lot of doubts in his mind.

At the moment when Jie Yin and Zhunti established Buddhism, he was both surprised and happy.

I thought that Master Hongjun would take action, and then once the West was finished, he would have one less opponent.

Unexpectedly, we didn’t see the master punishing us!
This made Taiqing very puzzled.

After all, in his opinion, the behavior of Jie Yin and Zhunti was simply a betrayal of their teacher and ancestors, and a heinous crime.

Even if we don't kill the two of them, we must at least knock them off their holy position!
in fact,

Not only Taiqing was puzzled, but Yuanshi from Kunlun Mountain, Tongtian from Jin'ao Island, and other powerful cultivators were also puzzled.

What does it mean that the Taoist Ancestor does not punish rebels?
Are you encouraging people to set up their own business?
Many people immediately became interested, but that was all for now.

If we really want to do something, no one has the courage now.

The west.

Jie Yin and Zhunti, who had taken a vow, were also nervous for a long time.

But when nothing happened in the end, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the big rock that had been hanging in the air fell completely.

"Brother, since Heaven has not punished us, it seems that the establishment of our Buddhist sect is the general trend of heaven and earth. The West is destined to flourish. I wonder who will dare to stop the prosperity of the West in the future. That is going against the will of heaven and against the way of heaven, hahahaha"

Zhunti looked excited and in high spirits, and his eyes flickered constantly at the end of his speech.

"Junior brother, please don't mess around!"

Jie Yin looked at Zhunti who was about to make a move, and quickly warned him:

"Whether it is the general trend of heaven or earth is just our guess. We can't be too ostentatious. The Three Pure Ones, Qi Tian and Nu Wa are not easy to deal with. Moreover, the East has been a little sensitive recently. You should not stir up trouble in the near future. If you really go too far and cause them to join forces to attack the West, then let alone Daxing, it will be good enough to be able to keep Buddhism!"

Jie Yin was a little worried about Zhunti.

Although the Three Pure Ones have now separated, in terms of relationship, they are still better than the Buddhist sect.

And there are Qi Tian and Nu Wa. These people are all proud of being Orientals. If they in the West really go too far, they will definitely end up being beaten up.

"Brother, rest assured. I know my limits and won't do anything rash!"

Zhunti's excited expression calmed down a little, but suddenly he seemed to think of something and his eyes moved:
"Brother, since we cannot provoke the East for the time being, there is a place I think we should go and make some plans now."

"Oh?" Jie Yin immediately showed curiosity: "Where is it?"

Zhunti said word by word: "The netherworld!"

"what?"

Jie Yin's face changed, and then he shook his head repeatedly: "Absolutely not, the Netherworld has the Taoist Master Ping Xin in charge. If we interfere recklessly and cause trouble, it will be more terrible than the siege of the Three Pure Ones and the others. No one will be able to save us then!"

Seeing Jie Yin's big reaction, Zhunti quickly explained:

"Brother, rest assured. The Netherworld is the territory of the Daoist Master, and I will not mess around. What I mean is that the Daoist Master has too few people to use, and the Netherworld is related to the operation of the prehistoric world. We in the Buddhist sect can send disciples to help. This is a good thing that will benefit the prehistoric world, and there will be merit to be gained."

Speaking of which,
Seeing that Jie Yin was still worried and hesitant, Zhunti rolled his eyes and said:

"Brother, I heard that Qi Tian has already sent his disciples to the Netherworld. This must be tacitly approved by Dao Zun, so our intervention will not cause displeasure to Dao Zun. We cannot fall behind others."

Hearing this, Jie Yin's eyes flashed and he fell into deep thought. Although Buddhism has now become independent from Xuanmen, the land of the West is too barren, and the luck and merits that can be obtained are very few.

And they owed too much merit to heaven and earth when they founded the religion.

If you don't want to interfere in the East for the time being, the underworld is indeed a good choice.

Otherwise, I don’t know when I will be able to pay off my debt to heaven and earth.

And if he could intervene in the underworld, then his Buddhist sect would have an endless source of merit.

When,

It can greatly relieve their stress and shortcomings.

Thinking of this,
Jie Yin looked at him with a determined look and nodded.
"Then send a disciple to try first. The Buddhist way I have realized has an innate advantage in purifying evil spirits. I can go to the Netherworld to convert evil spirits and maintain order in the world!"

"Brother Akechi!"

Zhunti's face lit up with joy: "Then send my disciple Maitreya!"

"No!" Jie Yin shook his head:

"You only have one disciple like this. It would be terrible if something unexpected happened to you. It is better to let Dizang go. He has a great talent for the Buddhist teachings and has a deep understanding of them!"

Hearing this, Zhunti thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you, Senior Brother!"

"Ok!"

Jie Yin nodded, and then a ray of spiritual light shot out and shot into the soul of Ksitigarbha in the Mount Sumeru below.

"Now that Buddhism has just been established, it is not appropriate to establish cause and effect with the East for the time being. You will go to the Netherworld on behalf of our Buddhism. The Netherworld is in charge of the reincarnation of all beings in the six realms of existence, and it concerns hundreds of millions of lives. There are many evil spirits in the underworld. We, the Buddha, are compassionate and cannot stand idly by! You go to the underworld and perform acts of salvation and help people escape from the sea of ​​suffering as soon as possible! Once all the evil spirits are saved, you can become a Buddha."

Dizang, who was excited about the establishment of Buddhism, listened to the voice transmission from his soul and his face changed slightly.

Although according to my master's advice, saving evil spirits will bring merit, and I can also achieve Buddhahood in the end.

but,

He also knew that the Netherworld was the place of reincarnation for all the saints in the ancient world. There were countless evil souls in it, and their number was constantly increasing.

If he wants to attain Buddhahood, it will take him many years.

at least,

He will lose his freedom for a long time, staying in the dark and gloomy underworld without seeing the sun.

Therefore,
It’s hard to say whether this job is good or bad.

However, since his master had directly conveyed the message to him, it meant that the matter could not be slowed down.

I can only bow my head and accept the order.

"Disciple obeys your order. I will not become a Buddha until hell is empty!"

After saying this, he left Mount Sumeru under the curious gazes of Medicine Master and Maitreya.

quickly,

Dizang arrived at the gate of hell, looked at the ancient land with nostalgia, and then entered the underworld.

Of course, Jie Yin also saw some of Dizang's thoughts.

But he didn't say anything or explain anything.

In fact, there is another reason for letting Ksitigarbha go, which Jie Yin did not tell clearly to Zhunti and Ksitigarbha.

That is the purple energy of the underworld in Pingxin's hand.

Although I know the chance of getting it is very small.

But if Dizang were to catch the eye of Pingxin and be bestowed with a ray of primordial purple energy, then his Buddhist sect would have three saints.

By then, apart from the Taoist Ancestor and the Taoist Master, what else would the Buddhist sect fear?

"Huh? Jizo went to the underworld!"

In the Water Curtain Cave, Qi Tian's eyes, which had never been retracted, flashed.

"It seems like they have set their sights on the fat piece of meat in the underworld!"

Qi Tian muttered something, but didn't take it too seriously.

Although Ksitigarbha is very talented in Buddhist salvation, his power is too small alone, and with the Witch Clan there, he cannot make much waves and cannot affect Jin Peng and the others.

Therefore, he merely sent a message to Jin Peng, asking him to pay a little attention to it in the future and then no longer pay attention to it.

Actually,
Qi Tian still has some admiration for Jie Yin and Zhunti.

Although the two sides were rivals and had been defeated by him many times, each time they had a keen sense of smell, kept planning, accurately found the breakthrough point that was beneficial to themselves and acted decisively.

And I have gained a lot many times!

No wonder the West flourished in later generations.

With the unremitting and never-give-up spirit and character of these two people, it would be really strange if they failed to prosper!

In fact, not only Qi Tian had insight into the whereabouts of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, but even the Three Pure Ones and others also noticed it.

Some different thoughts involuntarily arose in my mind.

After all, they are also attracted by the uniqueness and merits of the underworld.

However, they did not take any immediate action.

First, they still have many ideas about the Five Emperors' Teacher.

Secondly, they hope to wait for a while to see whether a more ideal opportunity will arise to intervene in the affairs of the underworld.

After all, there are too few merits and virtues to be of much appeal to them.

In fact, what they care about most and are obsessed with is the purple energy of the underworld in Pingxin's hands.

As long as these foundations of the truth are not distributed, they will not give up.

Prehistoric, human race.

After Zhuanxu became the common leader of the human race, there were no major twists and turns, and no one rebelled.

One reason is that the Human Emperor Xuanyuan abdicated. If we oppose it, wouldn’t it be a slap in the face of the Human Emperor?
The second reason is the assistance of Jiang Ling'er, a disciple from Huaguo Mountain.

The human race trusts and respects the people of Huaguo Mountain more than those of other sects. After all, this is the sect of the Holy Father and the master of the three ancestors of the human race.

It will definitely not harm the human race.

Since the people of Mount Huaguo recognized Zhuanxu, it meant that his moral character was good enough to make him the common leader of the human race.

As time passed, Zhuanxu proved this with his actions.

Although Zhuanxu was not as talented as the Three Emperors, with the help of Jiang Linger, who gave ideas from many people in Huaguo Mountain, he still did many great things that benefited the human race.

Because of the addition of human witches during the Xuanyuan period, and the tricks of some foreign races, the human race suddenly began to develop witchcraft rituals.

Zhuanxu carried out extensive reforms and abolished witchcraft!

Jedi Tiantong.

He also divided the country into nine provinces, created the sky and four seasons, and many other major events that benefited the human race.

In order to express his gratitude to Jiang Ling'er and Mount Huaguo, Zhuanxu continued to promote the name of Mount Huaguo among the human race, making Mount Huaguo even more famous among the human race.

Many humans even built statues at home to worship the statue, which greatly increased the prestige of Huaguo Mountain among humans and attracted constant incense offerings.

This scene made Taiqing, Yuanshi, Tongtian and the two saints of the West jealous.

Yuanshi, who had once snatched the Human Emperor, even felt extremely regretful and annoyed.

Why didn’t you think of letting Xuanyuan spread the teachings of the Chan sect among the human race?
The effect is definitely much better than that spread by the Five Emperors.

But it's too late to say anything now.

Yuanshi, Taiqing and Tongtian had no choice but to plan again and send their disciples down the mountain to secretly spread their teachings among the human race.

only,
How could the three religions hide this action from Huaguoshan?
