Chapter 132 Ksitigarbha's Three Questions to Bodhi: The Treasure-Gathering Cliff Transforms into a Treasure Basin

The scene that suddenly appeared before his eyes refreshed Bodhi Patriarch's preconceived notions about Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

This also left all the cultivators in the Earthly Immortal Realm in a state of astonishment.

Besides being astonished that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva suddenly displayed fighting power far exceeding what they should have, they were also astonished by something else.

As we all know, we have now entered the Great Tribulation of Journey to the West.

The Great Tribulation of Journey to the West is a Great Tribulation in which Buddhism flourishes.

Why is Buddhism, which should be thriving, facing so many problems?

First, he was killed by the reincarnated Taiyin Golden Immortal, who was also a Buddhist monk named Fahai.

Afterwards, Yang Jian killed Dingguang Huanxi Buddha, and Nezha shot and killed Wuchao Zen Master.

A strange being appears, capable of transforming into the Great Sun Tathagata.

Now, Yang Jian has come to understand the true mystery of the thirty-three-story exquisite pagoda and has overpowered the ancient Buddha Dipankara.

Even Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva turned against Bodhi Patriarch, the good corpse of Zhunti Daoist.

All of this shows absolutely no sign that Buddhism is thriving.

Just as everyone was pondering, the sky began to change once again.

The Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva who stood tall in the sky has changed.

His blood and qi surged wildly, like a mighty river flowing endlessly, accompanied by a terrifying howling sound.

A chilling aura emanated from it, surveying all directions with disdain.

In that instant, he was like an ancient chaotic god or demon awakening here!
Boom!

The stars twinkled, and the sky seemed to collapse.

The endless Dao of Heaven and Earth seemed to burst forth with a strange rhythm in response to his breath.

It was simply a violent surge of air that shattered the heavens and earth and engulfed the void.

With each breath they exhaled, they were like terrifying dragons, sweeping across the heavens and earth, tearing apart the void!

Upon witnessing this scene, even the most powerful beings in the world gasped in astonishment.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva appears in the void not to demonstrate how powerful his physical body is.

There are some things he needs to get an explanation for.

"I, Ksitigarbha, have three questions, but it is Bodhi who has answered them for me!"

"Firstly, because my mother was born into a Brahmin family, she was sent to the nineteenth level of hell simply for harboring resentment towards Buddhism. Doesn't this contradict the Buddhist principle of equality for all beings?"

Buddhism emphasizes the equality of all beings, and Brahmins are naturally considered beings as well.

If all beings are equal, why did Ksitigarbha's mother fall into the Avici Hell?

This is a soul-searching question.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva did not wait for Bodhi Patriarch to come up with a reply before asking the second question.

Even though my mother has fallen into the deepest hell.

As my teacher, you should care for me.

I absolutely do not want to see myself fall into pain because of my mother's situation.

Why didn't you have even the slightest bit of compassion and rescue my mother?

Never say you don't have the ability.

And don't say that doing so would go against your sense of justice.

Because you lack a sense of justice!
Back then, it was because the Old Ancestor Hongyun had shown you the grace of attaining enlightenment.

The cause and effect of this grace of attaining enlightenment is truly immense.

Once Ancestor Hongyun uses the last strand of Primordial Purple Qi to become a Heavenly Saint, the cause and effect will become immense and impossible to resolve.

Therefore, you absolutely cannot allow Ancestor Hongyun to become a saint.

When Hongyun Patriarch walked out of Wuzhuang Temple, you secretly passed the message through a demon star lord to Kunpeng Patriarch, Donghuang Taiyi, and Dijun, causing Hongyun Patriarch's demise.

In order to expedite the Lich War and usher the world into the Age of Saints.

During the Lich War, you transformed into a demon saint and released the ten Golden Crow Princes that were shrouded in the formation, directly causing the Lich War to break out.

Furthermore, during the Investiture of the Gods, you used magic at the Nuwa Temple, causing Emperor Xin to fall victim to your schemes.

Thus, he inscribed lewd poems in the Nuwa Temple, which triggered the massive Investiture of the Gods.

You have done so many things and caused so much killing, yet you have never acted against your conscience.

Would it be against my conscience to simply save my mother from the nineteenth level of hell?
This is clearly illogical!

Ksitigarbha's words ignited the entire celestial realm.

“Good fellow!

What a great guy!
Is this really something I can hear?
If all of this was done by the Daoist Zhunti, then the methods of this Western Sect's Sage Zhunti are far too ruthless!

Thoughts raced through everyone's minds.

At the same time, a thought arose: "Is this Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva slandering us?"

If something is buried deep and concealed by divine secrets, ordinary people cannot discern the truth from the falsehood.

However, everything has already been revealed by Ksitigarbha.

Not only the top ten Quasi-Saints, but even ordinary veteran Quasi-Saints can deduce these things, so they are true.

Bodhi Patriarch wanted to deny it, saying that he hadn't done any of it.

However, he also knew that denying it now would be pointless.

Bodhi Patriarch's eyes were fixed on Ksitigarbha, his killing intent flowing out without any attempt to conceal it.

However, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva seemed oblivious and continued, "As everyone knows, I made a great vow: I will not become a Buddha until hell is emptied. I manifest as Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva in Yinshan, constantly saving the Rakshasas, evil spirits, or Asuras in the eighteen levels of hell, and strengthening the eight classes of Buddhist disciples."

At that time, you told me that by helping the beings in hell to be saved, I would gain a lot of merit, which would allow me to rescue my mother.

In fact, I've only just realized that what they call "rehabilitation" is actually helping them escape from prison.

Besides bringing a large number of followers to Buddhism, I will also be entangled in karma. However, because I am now connected to the destiny of Buddhism, I have not shown any abnormalities.

However, these sins will be transferred to my mother.

In other words, all that I have done for Buddhism is for my mother.

But you deceived me to obtain the Eight Legions, causing my mother's soul to be scattered.

Is this for real?!

So cruel!

Just now, whether it was the demon race, the human emperor, or the Hongyun Ancestor, the Zhunti Daoist was scheming against outsiders.

Ksitigarbha's last words undoubtedly implied that the Daoist Zhunti was not only good at scheming against enemies, but also did not spare his own people.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's three questions are all designed to pierce the heart!

Patriarch Bodhi knew that there was no way to salvage the situation at this point.

wrong!

There's absolutely no need to salvage the situation!
He could be so powerful that he could reduce Ksitigarbha to only his true spirit.

Then, the true spirit of Ksitigarbha was washed away with Meng Po soup.

After that, he continued to work diligently, providing the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva with the eightfold assembly of Buddhist monks.

As Bodhi Patriarch was pondering these things, Ksitigarbha moved again.

He simply threw a punch.

How violent was the aura that erupted from Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva?

However, when this punch was thrown out of nowhere, no unusual phenomena occurred.

His punch seemed like child's play, producing no destructive power whatsoever.

This bizarre scene almost made many onlookers vomit blood.

Even those with great supernatural powers were horrified at this moment.

"The ultimate burst of power unleashes all strength, compressing all power beyond the limit into this one punch."

Not a single ounce of energy leaked out. This control over power was truly unparalleled.

It is foreseeable that the resulting destructive power will be unimaginable.

Some people marveled.

Bodhi Daoist naturally understood this principle as well.

Therefore, he also approached the situation with utmost care.

With a thunderous roar, a holy image appeared in the sky, with eighteen hands and twenty-four heads, holding a jeweled parasol, a flower vase, a fish intestine, and other items such as a vajra, a precious file, a golden bell, a golden bow, a silver halberd, and banners.

This is the Dharma body of the Daoist Zhunti.

During the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods, the true form of the Daoist Zhunti also appeared.

With a single blow, Kong Xuan was reduced to his original form, and then he was brought under control.

The second time was within the Zhuxian Sword Formation, where the Holy Image enveloped the Tongtian Sect Leader, giving the other Heavenly Dao Saints a chance to make their move.

The third time was during the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, when he joined forces with Kong Xuan to launch a sneak attack on Tongtian Jiaozhu and knock him off Kui Niu.

Even though Bodhi Daoist was merely the benevolent corpse of Zhunti Daoist, his strength surged when he unleashed the Twenty-Four Heads and Eighteen Hands Holy Image.

In particular, three of the palms contain a seven-jeweled tree, six pure bamboo roots, and a blessed vajra.

It can be said that it revealed the strongest fighting power of Bodhi Daoist.

Even so, Bodhi Patriarch realized that he had underestimated Ksitigarbha.

Click!

That's the sound of something breaking.

What broke?
It's definitely not Ksitigarbha's arm.

That could only be the Seven Treasures Tree and the Six Pure Bamboo offered up by Patriarch Bodhi.

Even the sacred image of Patriarch Bodhi was shattered, and the golden essence could be seen being lost.

This time, Patriarch Bodhi lost both face and substance, and was severely punished by Ksitigarbha.

What about the ancient Buddha Dipankara?

Faced with Yang Jian's series of ruthless tactics, his Twenty-Four Heavenly Kings were all exposed in their true forms.

Just then, Zhao Gongming arrived, carrying a treasure basin.

treasure bowl?
What is a treasure bowl?
After Zhao Gongming was made the God of Wealth, a magical treasure appeared in his hand on its own initiative—the Treasure Basin.

After Zhao Gongming refined the treasure basin, he discovered that the so-called treasure basin was actually the treasure-dividing cliff that the Dao Ancestor had once preached.

Treasure Sharing Cliff itself possesses the power to attract spiritual treasures from all over the world.

It is even more effective than the Lingbao Luobao Golden Coins of Cao Bao and Xiao Sheng.

In fact, after the treasure basin appeared in Zhao Gongming's hands, the treasure-dropping coins also fell into the treasure basin, becoming the matching money tree for the treasure basin.

Of course, these are all side notes.

The treasure basin flashed several times in the void, and Zhao Gongming used it to collect the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl, which had been returned to its original form.

Not only the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl, but also his Universe Ruler and Coffin Lamp were taken away.

This outcome made the ancient Buddha Dipankara feel even more desolate.

Now, however, he has no time to lament these things.

Yang Jian, who continued his attack, was too fierce.

Not only is it strong, but it is also extremely fast.

Ran Deng sensed that if he wasn't careful, he would be completely destroyed here.

Just when the situation was out of control and the Ancient Buddha of the Lamp was filled with despair, a voice suddenly rang out.
