Honghuang: I am Kuiniu, and I instructed Nuwa to create humans at the beginning.

Chapter 458 They are both Bodhisattvas, but why is there such a big difference?

At this time, the Bodhisattva Mahamati was a little confused as to which Bodhi tree was grown from the branch.

After all, the auras of the two trees were exactly the same, there was no difference at all. Logically speaking, this was impossible to cultivate.

At this moment, the Great Wisdom Bodhisattva discovered that what he was standing on was actually the Nine Heavens Xi Ran, and what was flowing in the canal was actually the Three Lights Divine Water.

This inevitably made the Great Wisdom Bodhisattva's mouth twitch again. He even almost thought of turning to visit Penglai Island.

After all, this Penglai Island is so rich that the Three Lights Divine Water and the Nine Heavens Xirang are actually used by this sect.

At this moment, the Great Wisdom Bodhisattva wanted to leave here immediately. If he stayed here for too long, he would no longer be able to regard Lingshan as a holy place.

So he took the golden cicada off the tree without hesitation, then said goodbye to Yunxiao and turned back to the Great Leiyin Temple on Lingshan Mountain in the west.

Looking at the back of Bodhisattva Dazhi as he left, Yunxiao couldn't help but smile, and then he spoke.

"Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao, you must rush to Jin'ao Island immediately and inform Master of this matter. Remember, do not forget any details."

Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao were present throughout the whole process, so they naturally knew everything that had just happened. They said yes to Yun Xiao without hesitation, and then headed into the chaos.

At the same time, Bodhisattva Dazhi had also returned to the Great Leiyin Temple in the West with Jin Chanzi.

Seeing that the Great Wisdom Bodhisattva had actually brought back the Golden Cicada, the forces affiliated with the original Western Religion were all delighted.

On the contrary, the forces of the orthodox teaching represented by the Bodhisattva Mahadev are now more or less envious and jealous.

On the contrary, Tathagata did not care about it. After all, he had known for a long time that the Great Wisdom Bodhisattva would succeed.

Because this Jin Chanzi was a key chess piece in the plan of Conferred God by his second master Niu Kui. How could he not let the Buddhist sect bring him back?

At the same time, based on his understanding of Yunxiao, Duobao Tathagata could guess without asking that Dazhi Bodhisattva must have paid a considerable price.

So he said immediately: "I didn't expect that the Great Wisdom Bodhisattva could bring Jin Chanzi back to my Western Buddhist sect with only two low-grade innate spiritual treasures."

"I will definitely keep this great achievement in mind. After the Conferred God Tribulation is over, I will reward you according to your merits."

At this time, the face of the Great Wisdom Bodhisattva was somewhat ugly. After a long while, he spoke: "Buddha, how can two low-grade innate spiritual treasures satisfy the appetite of Jiejiao?"

"The Bodhi trees in their orchards are more luxuriant than those in Lingshan Mountain in the west. I even have the illusion that the Bodhi trees in Penglai Island are the real ones."

"People use the Nine Heavens Xi Soil to plant flowers and the Three Lights Divine Water to water vegetables..."

Afterwards, Bodhisattva Mahamati recounted in detail in the Great Leiyin Temple what he had seen and heard on Penglai Island.

Finally, he did not forget to say that he had sacrificed a gourd of Nine Revolutions Golden Pills. Only then did Yun Xiao relent.

However, Yunxiao proposed that Jiejiao should arrange the twenty-seventh of the eighty-one difficulties. Otherwise, it would be impossible to hand Jin Chanzi over to Buddhism.

Even the fact that he had signed the Heavenly Dao Contract was revealed by the Great Wisdom Bodhisattva in the Great Leiyin Temple. The Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats who heard it all looked at each other in amazement. They thought that there were only eighty-one difficulties in total, and you had given away twenty-seven of them. This price was a bit too high.

At this time, Bodhisattva Cihang had also returned from heaven, and brought up the request of Lord Haotian to Tathagata.

It turns out that Lord Haotian also has a request, he wants to take away 27 of the 81 tribulations. The Heavenly Court is responsible for arranging it.

At this moment, all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas were completely dumbfounded. If they agreed to the Lord of Heaven again, how many difficulties would his Western Buddhism have left after completing these 81 difficulties?

On the contrary, the Bodhisattva Daxing standing by was secretly happy in his heart, because both the Western and Jie sects suffered losses in this matter, which meant that his Chan sect had won.

He immediately stood up and said, "Buddha, you must never agree to the conditions of the Heavenly Court. Otherwise, there will be no place for our Western Buddhist sect in this Journey to the West."

As soon as the Bodhisattva of Great Action opened his mouth, all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas spoke in agreement. Even the Bodhisattva of Great Wisdom nodded.

"For Jin Chanzi, it's fine to give the Twenty-Seven Tribulations to Jiejiao. But for the General Juanlian and Marshal Tianpeng, it's not worth it to give out the Twenty-Seven Tribulations again."

"After all, as long as we have Jin Chanzi and Lingming Stone Monkey, it doesn't matter who the other two are. At worst, we can just replace them."

At this time, Bodhisattva Cihang said, "Don't have such thoughts. Otherwise, even if Jin Chanzi and his group can successfully reach the Great Leiyin Temple, it will not be considered a success."

"Because the Journey to the West is not as simple as going west to obtain scriptures. The five people in the new team cannot be replaced by just anyone."

"The Golden Cicada represents our Buddhist lineage. The Spiritual Stone Monkey represents the Jiejiao, which teaches everyone without discrimination."

"The little white dragon he rides on is the reincarnation of the corpse of the Yellow Dragon Immortal, and represents the Chan Sect. Marshal Tianpeng is a disciple of the Supreme Lord Lao, and represents the Human Sect. And the general Juanlian represents the Heavenly Court."

"That is to say, these five people represent five forces. If they want to replace any one of them, they have to go through the forces behind them to decide how to replace them."

"If the power behind them disagrees, our Buddhist sect's unilateral substitution to complete the Journey to the West will be equivalent to not being recognized by that power."

"Among these five forces, as long as one of them disagrees, the Journey to the West will not be complete, and many changes will inevitably occur."

After hearing this analysis by Bodhisattva Cihang, all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the Great Leiyin Temple couldn't help but look embarrassed.

If we want the power behind him to agree to a replacement, wouldn't all the eighty-one difficulties be involved?
So for a moment, everyone looked at Duobao Tathagata. After all, when encountering a problem that cannot be solved, it is natural for the master of Buddhism to make the final decision.

At this time, Duobao Tathagata directly asked Bodhisattva Cihang: "Bodhisattva Cihang, I believe you already have a complete plan. Then tell us about it."

Taoist Cihang nodded, and then said: "There are a total of eighty-one difficulties in this journey to the West. Each difficulty has different merits."

"So all the forces want to share these eighty-one tribulations. In this way, they can share the merits that our Buddhist sect deserves from the Journey to the West."

"But they overlooked one point, that is, the Journey to the West Tribulation was personally decided by Daozu. If it cannot be started on time, those who prevent it will be punished by Daozu."

"So I think we can just wait and see what happens. Send Jin Chanzi into the six realms of reincarnation to complete his ten reincarnations, while waiting for Lord Haotian to compromise."
