Chapter 152 The Scheme to Guide the Ancient Buddha: Turbulence Stirs Up the South China Sea

"Previously, everyone said that the ancient Buddha of the Burning Lamp had lost the opportunity to be called the Burning Lamp because he lost his natal magic treasure, the Coffin Palace Lamp."

what about now?

The Haotian Golden Palace was first taken away by the monkey, who took the Haotian Tower.

Now, the Haotian Mirror has been taken away by Zhao Gongming's treasure bowl.

Moreover, it seems that Zhao Gongming has no intention of returning the Haotian Mirror.

Without the Haotian Mirror and the Haotian Tower, can this Haotian Golden Palace no longer be called the Haotian Emperor's Palace?

To say something like that must mean he has a bad relationship with Haotian Jinque.

Indeed, it was the Ziwei Emperor who spoke.

"Without the Haotian Tower and the Haotian Mirror, it cannot be called Haotian?"
That makes a lot of sense!

Many people have this thought in their minds.

However, they only dared to think about it in their hearts.

Right!

Although Haotian Jinque could not do anything to Emperor Ziwei and others, he had plenty of ways to deal with these rogue cultivators.

"How could this be?"

To be honest, when Zhao Gongming took away the coffin palace lamp, the natal treasure of the ancient Buddha Dipankara, he was secretly mocking the poor wretch.

Now that it's happening to him, he doesn't find it funny at all.

He wanted to get the Haotian Mirror back from Zhao Gongming.

But who will respond to him?

he thinks……

He doesn't need to think about anything anymore.

Yang Jian suddenly descended from the sky.

With just one step, the entire world of the Thirty-Three Heavens was shaken.

When the three-pointed double-edged sword descended, Haotian dared not confront its sharpness head-on and could only retreat.

Meanwhile, the battle between Bian Zhuang and the Buddha had reached a fever pitch.

Although Bian Zhuang did not possess the Hetu and Luoshu.

However, as a river god, he is the true ruler of the endless stars.

After losing the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, the Buddha's combat power was significantly reduced.

Therefore, after the last collision, they made a promise directly using the power of Mahayana Buddhism's destiny.

Seeing that the Tathagata was suffering repeated defeats and affecting the reputation of Mahayana Buddhism, the Ancient Buddha Amitabha could no longer sit still.

However, he also knew at this moment that Bian Zhuang was not alone.

Even if he intervenes, it won't change the situation.

Therefore, he and the benevolent Bodhi Patriarch, the corpse of the Daoist Zhunti, descended upon the Northern Darkness.

What?
Naturally, they directly coerced the Kunpeng Ancestor to hand over the Hetu and Luoshu.

Not reconciled!
The Kunpeng Ancestor was extremely unwilling.

In order to obtain the Hetu Luoshu, he became the number one traitor in the prehistoric world.

It has been the subject of countless people's silent criticism.

Good heavens, when your Buddhist sect runs into trouble, you just hand over my precious treasure. Is there any justice in this world?
However, in the end, the Kunpeng Ancestor still handed over the Hetu Luoshu.

For nothing else.

His reason was that he discovered the Ancient Buddha of Guidance seemed to be reviving.

A terrifying pressure, enough to be etched deep into the soul, is awakening.

That is the power of a saint.

Not bad!

In order to coerce the Kunpeng Ancestor into agreeing, the Ancient Buddha of Guidance directly used his power to intimidate him, employing a sage's strike as a threat.

The saying that all beings below the level of a sage are like ants seems to have been broken because Qiongxiao suppressed the perfectly revived Zhuxian Sword Formation.

However, that was Qiongxiao, who possessed the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation; she was all alone and unique.

At least the Kunpeng Ancestor was not qualified to say no in the face of a sage's attack.

Previously, it has been said more than once that the Guide is most skilled at controlling people's hearts.

He saw that the Kunpeng Ancestor had already been subdued.

After slapping someone, immediately give them a sweet treat.

"Of course, we won't take your Hetu and Luoshu for no reason. I will bestow upon you a Buddhist treasure, a sacred pestle."

The blessed pestle is a top-tier innate spiritual treasure.

They definitely have something to offer in terms of attack.

Blessing the sacred pestle?

I originally thought I would lose the Hetu Luoshu directly, but I didn't expect to receive the Blessed Divine Pestle.

Having something is better than not having it.

What excited him even more was that the voice of the ancient Buddha who was guiding him rang out again.

"Of course, the blessed pestle is still not an existence that can be compared to the Hetu and Luoshu. That is why I have decided to give you one-tenth of the power of Buddhism's fortune."

what?
There are such benefits?

This Mahayana Buddhism is not the same as the original Heavenly Court of the Demon Race.

The Heavenly Court of the Demon Race may be destroyed.

However, there are two kinds of saints in Mahayana Buddhism who are absolutely impossible to destroy. In other words, no matter what, they can always receive the blessing of the Buddhist fortune.
The Kunpeng Ancestor went to great lengths to support the demon race in re-establishing the Heavenly Court, all in order to plunder the great fortune of heaven and earth.

Now, they have gained one-tenth of the Buddhist fortune for no reason.

The power of the blessed pestle and the great fortune of Mahayana Buddhism are theoretically no match for the Hetu and Luoshu.

Because at this time, Buddhism still had the power of Wuyunxian to divide the fortune of the Buddhist sect.

However, the change from direct robbery to exchange was more acceptable to the Kunpeng Ancestor.

Of course, this saved face for him in the eyes of all cultivators in the world.

After all, if they were to snatch it directly from him, the Kunpeng Ancestor would once again lose face in the eyes of many cultivators in the Earthly Immortal Realm.

Now, it has become a transaction, which clearly preserves his last shred of dignity.

As for the Ancient Buddha of Guidance, when the Kunpeng Ancestor chooses to accept one-tenth of his Buddhist fortune, he will be drawn onto the Buddhist war chariot.

Although the blessed pestle was given to Ancestor Kunpeng, it helped him increase his strength, and indirectly enhanced the strength of Buddhism itself.

If the Kunpeng Ancestor had ulterior motives, he would simply demand the Blessed Divine Pestle back. Would the Kunpeng Ancestor dare to refuse?

In short, the method of guiding the ancient Buddha was actually a way to get something for nothing, but in the end, it resulted in a happy ending for everyone.

Having witnessed everything, Su Qing couldn't help but praise the Ancient Buddha's skill.

Soon the two arrived in front of Bian Zhuang.

With the Hetu and Luoshu in hand, Bian Zhuang could no longer afford to press the matter.

Solving the Bianzhuang problem,

Next, Buddhism will have to deal with the change of leadership in Heaven.

This is just a really difficult matter to handle.

Suddenly, the Buddha's furrowed brows vanished instantly.

He remembered the Little Thunder Temple.

Among the eighty-one tribulations in Journey to the West, there is one tribulation at the Little Thunder Temple.

“I can easily substitute one thing for another and use the Little Heavenly Palace to replace the Lingxiao Palace.”

After all, I only said that I would give the Heavenly Palace to the monkey, but I didn't say that I would give up the position of the Heavenly Emperor.

I only said that I invited Haotian to visit the West, not that Haotian had lost his position as the Heavenly Emperor.

Even though that was what I meant earlier, I can completely deny it. With that thought, the Buddha had already arrived in the Heavenly Court.

"Haotian, there are so many heavenly palaces in the Thirty-Three Heavens. Why don't you just give one of them to the monkey and let him live there?"

Betting on the Heavenly Emperor?
This is a misunderstanding among many cultivators!

The Buddha's words immediately caused the Golden Palace of Haotian, which had fled the Thirty-Three Heavens, to reappear here.

"good!
I am the Heavenly Emperor appointed by the Hongjun Ancestor.

How could I possibly use something belonging to Hongjun Laozu as a wager?

"If the Monkey King is willing, I can arrange a heavenly palace for him called the Palace of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven."

Haotian's shamelessness is astonishing.

However, this statement, coupled with the Buddhist sect's staunch support and its guarantee that no more powerful individuals would enter the underworld to vie for power, is valid.

Those who follow the Chan sect did not want to coerce too much, which is why all the agreements were reached.

That monkey had the Great Sage Equaling Heaven Palace in the Heavenly Court.

What happened next further deepened everyone's perception of the shamelessness of Buddhism.

Just when everyone thought the matter was over, the Buddha Tathagata, who had returned to Mount Sumeru in the West, once again sent down a palm from the sky.

When the palm fell, a monkey was pinned under it.

"monkey?
Who is that monkey?

Initially, everyone was puzzled by the sudden appearance of the mountain and the monkey.

Soon, news spread throughout the Immortal Realm.

"Two Realms Mountain suppressed a demon monkey who once wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace."

This demon monkey once wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace, but none of the gods and immortals could suppress him, not even the Lord of the Heavenly Palace.

Haotian was so frightened that he crawled under the table, and ultimately had no choice but to hide.

The Heavenly Emperor rescued the Western Buddha, who then subdued the monkey under the Five Fingers Mountain.

Shameless!
This is what many cultivators think.

At the same time, they were also curious about how the monkey would react after learning about this.

Contrary to expectations, he did not erupt in fury.

"The Six-Eared Macaque has finally appeared!"

In Heaven, the reason why the monkey tolerated and did not erupt, and did not dwell on the words "Heavenly Palace" or "Heavenly Emperor," was because he knew that after this matter was over, the scene of the Six-Eared Macaque replacing the Monkey King would inevitably occur.

Now that this scene is truly unfolding before his eyes, the Monkey King's face is filled with joy; he has no interest in the Buddha's scheming.

"However, this is not the time to directly enter the Five Elements Mountain to obtain the Six-Eared Macaque's origin, because at this time, whether it is the Buddha Tathagata, the Kunpeng Ancestor, the Ancient Buddha of Guidance, or the Bodhi Ancestor, and also Lu Ya, they are all paying attention to the Five Elements Mountain."

Lu Ya?

Hasn't Lu Ya already completely broken ties with the Western Religion?

Why would Lu Ya still be guarding the Five Elements Mountain?
To reiterate, the Ancient Buddha of Amitabha is a very capable person.

He knew that there was only one thing in this world that could not be changed, and that was self-interest.

What do those sordid things matter as long as there are enough benefits?
What interests does the Six-Eared Macaque have with Lu Ya?
"It was the teacher's profound calculation that allowed Lu Ya's newly nurtured evil corpse to be reincarnated as the pilgrim, and allowed a veteran quasi-saint who had severed two corpses to replace Jin Chanzi."

Jin Chanzi is a six-foot-long golden cicada.

If he can become the pilgrim, then the evil corpse of Lu Ya, the three-legged golden crow, can naturally be as well.

Even the Buddha Tathagata sincerely admired the scheming of the Ancient Buddha Amitabha.

At the same time, he began to ponder: "The three-legged golden crow can be transformed into a pilgrim, and the monkey can be replaced by the six-eared macaque."

What is lacking now is greed, arrogance, and ignorance.

Greed led him to initially choose Marshal Tianpeng.

That's clearly not going to work now.

However, not long ago, the Heavenly God of Martial Virtue was struck by the Monkey King's staff and was about to be reincarnated. So let the God of Martial Virtue become Greed.

Let him be reborn as a pig.

The remaining characters represent the Curtain-Raising General and the Arrogant Third Prince of the Jade Dragon.

Which one should we start scheming from?

After pondering for a while, he finally made his choice.

His choice was the White Dragon.

"This Jade Dragon Third Prince is a member of the Dragon Clan."

The foundation of our Buddhist community's prosperity today is the Eight Legions. Because of Ksitigarbha, we cannot increase the Asura and Rakshasa legions, so it is better to let the Nagas return to their positions.

With the return of the dragons to their rightful places, perhaps when the Eight Legions of Devas and Asuras are complete, the fortunes of Buddhism will rise even further.

He pondered this in his heart.

However, he was calculating that the Third Prince of Jade Dragon still needed Haotian's help.

And so, not long after, the Heavenly Court bestowed a marriage between the Third Prince of the Jade Dragon of the South Sea and Princess Wansheng, the daughter of the Azure Wave Dragon King.

He also bestowed a luminous pearl upon the Third Prince of Yulong and Princess Wansheng.

"coming!"

A complex expression flashed across the face of the Third Prince of Jade Dragon.

There was shame, anger, and resentment; there was gritted teeth and anticipation.

It really looks forward to seeing the astonishment and regret on the faces of those who scheme against its existence and painstakingly plot against it, only to have their schemes ultimately fail.

At the same time, there is a bit of complexity involved.

To be honest, although he saw the scene of being betrayed by his father in Journey to the West.

Even now, there is no indication that this scenario will occur.

He didn't believe the zodiac token could deceive him.

After all, his current strength is based on the Zodiac Token.

It was able to transform itself from an ordinary dragon who had not even attained the Taiyi Dao Fruit into a being who now surpasses even veteran Quasi-Saints.

The very existence of the Zodiac Token is even more terrifying and unbelievable than the power of so-called saints.

How could something go wrong?
The Third Prince of Jade Dragon could not believe such a thing could happen.

"It's very possible that since the changes that occurred during my marriage, there will be new changes, but what kind of changes will they be?"

The Third Prince of Jade Dragon was originally just someone who enjoyed eating, drinking, and having fun.

They didn't pay much attention to the situation of the dragons.

Nowadays, I don't pay much attention to certain things.

However, due to his own strength, he became too powerful and was able to see many landscapes that he could not see before.

For example, even though no one has notified me now.

However, he vaguely sensed that a look of seriousness had appeared on his father's face.

Not only his father, but he also noticed that his older brother Moang seemed somewhat anxious.

Not long afterward, they all left the West Sea Dragon Palace.

Instead, they headed south.

That looks like the direction of the South China Sea.

There seems to be a storm brewing there.

I've been focused on the Monkey King's havoc in Heaven all this time. I had no idea that such turmoil had already begun to stir up the world.

At this moment, the South China Sea Dragon Palace, which the White Dragon was paying attention to, was indeed undergoing tremendous changes.

Huge aquatic creatures.

Inside, you can see powerful members of the Dragon Whale and Tiger Shark clans, as well as Jiaolong (a type of dragon).

Even the powerful members of the dinosaur race who disappeared during the Great Calamity of Ferocious Beasts can be seen here.
