Taking advantage of the opportunity, Li Chang'an mobilized the power of Confucian scholars to influence the surrounding demon races.
"Yes, this land originally belonged to the demon race, but the Buddhist sect forcibly occupied it first."
Have we simply forgotten the blood feud of slaughtering the demon race back then?
Suddenly, old and new grudges surged up, and the demons rekindled their fighting spirit and anger, feeling ashamed of their previous infatuation.
Bodhisattva Guangxian sighed, remaining unperturbed, but also refraining from further attempts to persuade the Nine-Tailed Fox. He then turned to look at Li Chang'an:
“Buddha’s disciple, I invite you to join the Buddhist order not because I covet your good fortune.”
Since you are able to establish Mahayana Buddhism, you are someone who has a karmic connection with the Buddha.
In Buddhism, the price of attaining a higher level of enlightenment is not merely physical strength, but also spiritual and compassionate qualities.
In my eyes, you are someone who can be ranked alongside the Buddha.
If you are willing to convert to Buddhism and lead Buddhist followers worldwide to understand Mahayana Buddhism, you will surely attain enlightenment.
"Shouldn't your biggest concern right now be how to protect this clone?"
Li Chang'an's voice was devoid of sorrow or joy, and Guangxian Bodhisattva's heart suddenly tightened.
A powerful sense of crisis surged into my consciousness!
However, Li Chang'an's next words made Guangxian Bodhisattva feel even colder.
"Mahayana Buddhism has already taken root and flourished in the Western Regions. I am even revered as the greatest Dharma King of all time. Why should I need to enter your Buddhist sect?"
Chapter 438 Destroying the Bodhisattva's Avatar! The Southern Demon Kingdom Restored!
Li Chang'an advised, "Why don't you abandon darkness and embrace light, join the Mahayana Buddhist sect, and you might even be able to secure a position as a Dharma Protector Bodhisattva?"
Bodhisattva Guangxian's eyelids twitched slightly. "The greatest Dharma King in the universe throughout history?"
"As expected, it was you who caused trouble in my Western Regions."
The allure of Mahayana Buddhism to Buddhist believers is immense. Li Chang'an has already mobilized the intelligence network of the night watchmen to begin spreading Mahayana Buddhism in the Western Regions.
Li Chang'an is the First Dharma King, and Master Hengyuan is the First Dharma Protector Arhat.
This spread was very rapid, and besides the inherent influence of Mahayana Buddhism, there was another very important reason.
Because Master Hengyuan, the head abbot of the Great Feng Buddhist sect, truly believed that Li Chang'an was the greatest Dharma King in the universe throughout history...
The Arhats, who even deceived themselves, then formed a group to deceive believers in the Western Regions, and the effect was terrifyingly strong.
In that case, the destiny of the Western Regions would be divided.
Originally, people in the Western Regions practiced Theravada Buddhism, which meant they believed in the Buddha.
The current fortune is divided; some people do not believe in the Buddha. Therefore, when the Buddha is revived in the future, he will not be able to absorb the fortune of the entire Western Regions.
"I did nothing wrong; it's just that your Buddhist faith is not firm."
Guangxian Bodhisattva closed his eyes, because Li Chang'an had already found his weakness.
He must capture Li Chang'an and bring him back to the Buddhist Kingdom to become the Buddha's protector, so that the followers of the First Dharma King will become the Buddha's followers.
"Buddha's disciple, do not struggle..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the previously somewhat dim roulette wheel regained its golden light.
On the turntable, the words "beast" lit up and shot out a beam of light that struck the nine-tailed celestial fox squarely.
Immediately afterwards, the character "人" (person) lit up and emitted a beam of light, which shone on Li Chang'an.
Li Chang'an had already experienced such supernatural power in Jianzhou, so he was naturally not worried at all.
He saw the nine-tailed celestial fox beside him suddenly shrink in height, and its full breasts, wrapped in a narrow animal hide, shrank at a visible speed.
Her once deep cleavage is gone.
In the blink of an eye, the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox transformed from a tall, mature woman with fox ears and silver hair into a twelve or thirteen-year-old white-haired loli.
Pink and cute, innocent yet alluring.
At the same time, Asuro made another move, and fought fiercely with the Bear King.
As a second-rank Arhat with Asura blood, being able to fight a third-rank demon king to a standstill requires some acting skills.
The Bodhisattva Guangxian discovered that Li Chang'an was not affected by the cycle of reincarnation.
Just as they were wondering what was happening, one of the nine-tailed fox's tails lit up and then began to shrink until it became just a single tail.
In the distance, Kiyohime let out a soft moan, and her tall figure rapidly shrank, transforming into a twelve or thirteen-year-old loli.
The nine-tailed celestial fox has reverted to her former form as a tall, alluring, silver-haired mature woman.
"You're quite cute."
Li Chang'an was stroking the little girl's head when she suddenly returned to normal.
The nine-tailed celestial fox looked up and howled, its cry echoing through the heavens and earth, spreading far and wide.
A moment later, a figure fell from the sky and crashed into the field.
This is a mutilated body, missing its right hand and head, with dark skin.
Every piece of flesh and blood in the skin contains immense power.
A powerful and terrifying aura enveloped the entire area.
It made ordinary soldiers and lesser demons tremble with fear, feeling their spirits crumbling and their emotions running wild, wanting to destroy everything, including themselves.
“Divine Power.” Bodhisattva Guangxian’s expression was solemn.
“Guangxian, we meet again!” A deep voice came from Shenshu’s chest.
After the torso, legs, and left arm were fused together, Shenshu's primordial spirit was also able to merge.
The headless Shen Shu appeared before Guangxian like a ghost.
With a "bang," he squeezed the air with his left hand, raised his left arm, pulled back his waist, and slammed it hard against Guangxian.
boom!
This punch also hit the air, and Guangxian's body disintegrated into golden light.
Shen Shu's fist slammed into the ground, creating a crater three meters in diameter. The violent force traveled along the ground, tearing a crack in the earth.
He had already "died" once because he couldn't dodge Shen Shu's fist.
This clone's power can only be used to die three times.
Just then, the Bodhisattva Guangxian suddenly felt a sharp, piercing sensation coming from behind him.
Immediately afterwards, a sharp, mocking laugh rang out.
"Hehehe, this monk's clone is as fragile as paper."
Guangxian's pain did not last long; his clone shattered into pieces again, scattering golden light in all directions.
Just now, an incomparably sharp purple light pierced through his back and exited from his chest.
The Emperor's Brush, radiating purple energy, stood in the air, mocking the fragility of Guangxian's clone.
The incarnation of Bodhisattva Guangxian died once again!
The golden light, like stars in the dark night, gathered again a hundred feet away, and at this moment, Guangxian could no longer remain calm.
If this clone dies now, it will be unable to be resurrected, which also means that the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons has successfully restored itself.
That magical bronze pen, shimmering with purple light, was clearly a powerful artifact of the Confucian school.
Using Confucianism to destroy Buddhism!
"Guangxian, you can escape now." Li Chang'an reached out, and the Emperor's Brush returned to its place.
The divine beast straightened its body and let out a deep, powerful roar, like a ferocious beast that had been sleeping for thousands of years awakening, eager to show its power to the world.
Chaos erupted on the city walls as Western Region defenders, monk soldiers, and demons slaughtered each other without regard to friend or foe.
Behind the head of the Bodhisattva Guangxian, the image of reincarnation disappeared, and a golden image three zhang tall condensed.
The statue has its hands clasped together, its head bowed, and its face full of compassion.
"With great compassion and mercy, never slackening, always seeking good deeds, benefiting all beings." Bodhisattva Guangxian clasped his hands together and chanted softly.
The sounds of chanting filled the air, and the three-zhang-tall Buddha statue radiated golden light, illuminating the darkness.
This blood-stained battlefield seemed to have become a peaceful and compassionate Bodhisattva's sacred place.
"Bang!"
The sound of weapons falling to the ground rang out one after another. At this moment, whether human or demon, everyone discarded their weapons, unwilling to commit further killing.
Just moments before they were enemies fighting to the death, but now they look at each other with eyes full of compassion and love for life.
"The image of great compassion and mercy."
The nine-tailed celestial fox frowned. Baptized by the Buddha's light, all the hatred, scheming, resentment, and ambition in her heart vanished in the light.
But her powerful primordial spirit, representing strong reason, made her realize that such emotions were wrong, and that Buddhism and the demon race were mortal enemies.
Reason and emotion were locked in a stalemate.
