Primordial Era: I rule the great sect and command all immortals.

For Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, the eight hundred Bodhisattvas are his sphere of influence, and no one can interfere with them!

Therefore, the culprit, Buddha Wutian, is doomed!

What Samantabhadra Bodhisattva said cannot be changed by anyone!

Even if a sage disagrees, the Buddha Wutian must die!

"Hmm! We'll talk about this another time."

The Buddha of Sandalwood Merit smiled slightly and said, "Mahavairocana Tathagata, you were attacked by demons a few years ago, which damaged your essence. You lost half of your relics, didn't you?"

"Hmm! Not bad!"

The Great Sun Buddha paused slightly, recalling the past tragedies, his face darkening with rage.

However, he immediately remembered that the Buddha would not reopen his wounds for no reason, so he asked, "What instruction does the Buddha have?"

"The Medicine Buddha was one of the leaders of the rebels, and his crimes are absolutely unforgivable! All his knowledge comes from Buddhism, so he should remain in Buddhism."

The Sandalwood Merit Buddha spoke lightly.

Upon hearing this, the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha stood up abruptly.

The meaning of the Sandalwood Merit Buddha is too clear: this is asking him to take action.

A powerful supernatural being in the late Quasi-Saint stage, or a high-ranking Buddhist monk, it seems that the relics of Bhaisajyaguru Buddha can make up for his lack of original essence.

Thinking of this, the Great Sun Buddha was excited.

With his future at stake, he gratefully said to the Sandalwood Merit Buddha, "Buddha, rest assured! I know what to do!"

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva watched with envy, but he could only be envious. Vairocana Buddha was an ally, and his very foundation had been damaged.

The way the Sandalwood Merit Buddha handled this matter is most reasonable.

He cannot and should not compete for this benefit.

The three Buddhist leaders dispersed, and it goes without saying how the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha concocted the Medicine Buddha; Lu Ya had many other methods at his disposal.

Not only does he possess the legacy of the Golden Crow clan, but he also inherits the Great Dao of the Sage Nuwa. Furthermore, he has mingled with the Xuanmen sect and is a practitioner of Buddhism, Taoism, and demonism. For such a person, dealing with an immobile Medicine Master Liuli Tathagata would be a piece of cake.

After the three leaders of Buddhism discussed the matter, their will was quickly instilled in them. The Buddhas were in a state of turmoil, but after hearing the explanation from Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, they were filled with admiration for the Sandalwood Merit Buddha.

Even in this situation, the Buddha still wholeheartedly considers the well-being of Buddhism, truly making him the master of Buddhism!

As for Namoro, once the matter of the Demon Realm is settled, there will naturally be a time to settle accounts with him!

In the Demon Realm, on the Western Continent, the Buddhist army of tens of millions has stabilized once again.

Soon, as planned, apart from a portion of those who remained to maintain stability on the western continent, the main force set off again towards the central continent.

In the midst of chaos, there lies a paradise.

"The Sandalwood Merit Buddha has been wronged."

With a smile on her face, the Buddha Mother Cundi said, "The sage does not look at the four realms with his eyes, but the world is in the sage's heart. The demon realm is related to the plans of the two Western sages, so he naturally attaches great importance to it."

The decision of the three Buddhas—the Buddha of Sandalwood Merit, the Buddha of Great Sun, and the Bodhisattva Samantabhadra—was immediately known to the two saints.

Cundi Buddha Mother was naturally extremely satisfied with the performance of Sandalwood Merit Buddha on matters of great right and wrong.

Immediately, the Buddha Mother Cundi remembered the Great Sage Namo Ratna and frowned. Under his leadership, Buddhism seemed to have strayed somewhat from its original purpose.

Many members of the Asura race have entered Buddhism, and they have become one of the mainstream groups.

If this continues, will Buddhism still be Buddhism?

"Junior brother, there's no need to worry! This is a good opportunity to see what kind of mind the Buddhist disciples have and whether they can withstand the evil deeds of the demonic path."

Amitabha Buddha smiled slightly, still confident. Sometimes, even a saint cannot predict everything, especially the future.

At present, Amitabha Buddha is too optimistic.

"All sentient beings are inferior, suffering more than they enjoy, and are filled with ignorance, anger, and greed. However, in our Buddhist community, there are those with great supernatural powers and great perseverance. All Buddhas should use compassion and wisdom to subdue the inner demons and not be disturbed by external demons."

Cundi Buddha Mother smiled and nodded.

Both Buddhist saints regarded this calamity as a test for their disciples. They were both too naive, thinking that the Buddhas had supreme composure and would not be swayed by external demons.

They never imagined that with the arrival of the "Dharma-ending Age," when they discovered the crisis facing Buddhism, they would be unable to change anything they wanted to do.

In the future, Buddhism will be in name only, and in reality, Buddha will be demon.

Mara also relied on his great contribution of dragging Buddhism down with him to attain the position of the most powerful and influential person in the Three Realms.

At this moment, all the armies had gathered on the central continent.

The most people came from the Human Sect and the Chan Sect. Since Yuanshi Tianzun wanted to compete for the position of Lord of the Demon Realm, he naturally had to do everything in his power.

Secondly, there is the Wu Clan. The Wu Clan's twelve Ancestral Witches and tens of millions of troops were already active in the Central Continent. This time, they naturally could not give up their territory in the Central Continent.

The Buddhist sect formed an alliance with the Wu tribe. The Sandalwood Merit Buddha, the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha, and Samantabhadra Bodhisattva led Buddhist masters and an army of five million to come and lend their support.

People from the Jie Sect also came, but they were all quasi-saint level experts. None of them had any intention of fighting for territory; they were all just there to watch the spectacle and see the rare scene of saints fighting.

Chaos Dao Lord naturally wouldn't interfere with these people's thoughts. Their lives are their own, and they are naturally responsible for them. If something really happens and they are affected by the battle between the saints, then it is their fate to suffer such a calamity.

In addition, there is the demon cult led by Qiongqi, Bai Ze, Bi Fang, Fei Lian and others. They are the weakest and have formed an alliance with the Asura Cult. Neither side dares to make a move against the Central Continent.

This time, I came to show my support for the teachings of the Human School and the Chan School.

Yuanshi Tianzun has made a heavy bet, starting to win over both the Demon Sect and the Asura Sect. After the matter is accomplished, the two sects will reward him accordingly, and he will definitely not work for nothing.

Because of the Wu tribe, Nuwa naturally favored Yuanshi Tianzun. She had already fulfilled the promise made by the Three Pure Ones that she could establish a religion, and she could also cause trouble for her old rival. How could the saint Nuwa miss such an opportunity?

Let alone saints, even Bai Ze and Bi Fang had the same idea; their hatred for the Wu tribe was too great.

In recent years, the Wu tribe has been thriving, while the Yao tribe has been plagued by misfortune, suffering heavy losses and unable to even break out of Beiju Luzhou. They are constantly suppressed by the Wu tribe, making their lives extremely difficult.

This time, the demon race was determined to cause trouble. They planned to deal with the witch race first, and ideally, kill a few ancestral witches in the chaos, preventing the witch race from gathering all twelve ancestral witches.

Meanwhile, the Styx Ancestor came with the aim of weakening Buddhism. News from Xiniu Hezhou also reached out that Mara had arranged for tens of millions of Asura descendants to enter Buddhism and even become the Lord of some other realm.

This news completely stunned the Styx Ancestor.

However, this is the best news. Because of this news, the Styx Ancestor has been all smiles these past few days. He never imagined that back then, he had only taken in the Great Sage Moro as a pawn to fight back against Buddhism.

Who could have imagined that the Great Sage Moro could do this?

Now, the Great Sage Mara has brought Mara into Buddhism, which is exactly what is meant by "there is Buddha within demon, and demon within Buddha."

Once those who pose a threat to Mara and the Great Sage are eliminated, Buddhism will naturally fall under the control of the Asura race. In the future, he, as the patriarch of the Asura race, will also enter Buddhism and become a Buddha in his own right.

The thought of this filled the Styx Ancestor with fervor.

His gaze was fixed on the distant western part of the central continent, where the Buddhist army was gathered. This time, the old demon would personally take action. Whether he killed the Sandalwood Merit Buddha, the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha, or Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, it would be a great victory and would definitely relieve the pressure on the Great Sage Moro and the others.

"Brahma, Rakshasa, Shiva, you three, listen up! Once the battle begins, join the Ancestor in preparing to ambush and kill the Buddhist masters!"

The Styx Ancestor secretly transmitted his voice.

"Rest assured, Ancestor! We understand!"

Brahma, Rakshasa, and Shiva nodded repeatedly. When the news from West Goddess of the Western Continent arrived, the three of them were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred. They were all the four great demon kings of the Asura race. Naboma was guarding the house, but he never expected to have picked up such a big advantage.

This is driving them absolutely crazy!

"You three remember this! This time, you absolutely cannot think of holding Mara back! This is the greatest opportunity our Asura Cult has ever had, and all of you must give it your all!"

The Styx Ancestor coldly reminded them that the four demon kings usually schemed against each other, and they had done their fair share of underhanded tactics against each other, whether it was for the power of the Asura Clan or the Asura Cult.

However, these things were nothing to the Styx Ancestor, so he naturally had no intention of caring about them. In fact, he even had the idea of ​​raising Gu worms. In any case, the existence of no hope of attaining the Dao would not be of any help to the Styx Ancestor.

If one of the Four Demon Kings were to emerge as a being as powerful as him, that would be a good thing for the Asura Cult.

"Rest assured, Ancestor! We understand this principle and will absolutely not hold back on such an important matter!"

Brahma, Kasyapa, and Shiva reiterated their stance, their expressions solemn. Styx Ancestor hadn't warned them for many years; this matter had to be taken very seriously.

"Yes! Mara has gained a foothold in Buddhism, which is also beneficial to you. In the future, we can bring the three of you into Buddhism as well, and each of you can become the master of a Buddhist realm."

The Styx Ancestor's expression softened considerably. The way to govern people is nothing more than using both kindness and severity. He had already frightened the three of them, so naturally he had to give them a promise.

Of course, this isn't just empty promises. Someone of Styx Ancestor's status couldn't possibly fool beings at the level of the Four Demon Kings.

This is a genuine promise, and it must be fulfilled.

"Yes! Rest assured, Ancestor, we will do our utmost!"

The phrase "Brahma, the Desire Realm, Shiva's Great Joy" is more real than anything else. Even risking one's life against a Buddhist monk would have been worthwhile.

Later, these three people actually entered the Buddhist order and became one of the main forces that split the Buddhist order, almost destroying the Buddhist order from its source in Xiniu Hezhou.

In later generations, Amitabha Buddha and Cundi Buddha were filled with remorse. The two saints would never have imagined that a mere "Dharma-ending Age" would destroy their foundation built over hundreds of millions of years in an instant.

If Zen and Tantric Buddhism had not left some traces in other continents, where would Buddhism have a place to stand?

At this moment, the Asura Clan and the Demon Cult are ready, waiting for the chaos to unfold so they can engage in a bloodbath. One is eyeing the Witch Clan, and the other is eyeing the Buddhist Clan.

All the demon experts who could and were willing to come from the demon realm had arrived. These demon gods and demon emperors were gathered in front of the "Ancestral Demon Palace," forming a densely packed army of at least hundreds of millions.

However, some of the more resourceful and powerful beings in the Demon Realm, sensing the danger, had already led their people far away from the Demon Realm continent and hidden in the underground world, in the infinite starry sky.

Of course, there are also beings like the Immortal-Eating Demon Clan, who have long since surrendered and actively integrated into the four realms of the Primordial World, becoming a part of it.

It can be said that the Demon Realm's power has waned.

The Human Sect and the Chan Sect occupied the eastern part of the "Ancestral Demon Palace" and gathered an army of fifty million, many of whom were captured demons who were turned into cannon fodder by the evil curses, conversion techniques and puppet techniques of the Xuanmen.

The Witch Clan and the Buddhist Clan occupied the west, and together they had an army of nearly 20 million. Among them were peerless masters such as the Twelve Ancestral Witches, the Sandalwood Merit Buddha, the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha, and Samantabhadra Bodhisattva. Their strength was extremely formidable and should not be underestimated.

Similarly, if the two Western Saints and Houtu Niangniang were to vie for ownership of the Demon Realm, they would be the biggest rivals of the Human Sect and the Chan Sect.

To the south of the "Ancestral Demon Palace" were a few dozen scattered powerful cultivators from the Jie Sect. Beside them were many great experts from the Three Realms, such as the Queen Mother of the West and Zhen Yuanzi, who were there to watch the spectacle. They were not there for any other reason than to be extremely confident that they would not be in any danger if the sages did not target them.

There were quite a few people in this group, and even some reckless immortals came.

To the north of the "Ancestral Demon Palace" lies the allied forces of the Demon Sect and the Asura Sect. The two major sects have a combined army of thirty to forty million. While their quality is naturally inferior to that of the Xuanmen and Wuzu sects, they are still far superior to ordinary forces.

In terms of both quantity and quality, the combined forces of the three realms completely overwhelmed the demon race.

In the chaos, Lao Tzu, Yuanshi Tianzun, Tongtian Jiaozhu, Nuwa, Amitabha, Zhunti, Houtu, and Chaos Daojun all focused their attention here.

Outside the Ancestral Demon Palace, one great formation after another stretched endlessly, their malevolent aura soaring to the heavens, staining the void of the Demon Realm crimson...

However, before the final battle in the Demon Realm could begin, the great war in Xiniu Hezhou broke out first.

It was not the Great Sage Moro who launched the attack first!

On the contrary, it was the weaker "Alliance of Gods".

The angelic legions, hellish demons, the fanatical followers of the sole ruling religion, and the assistance of other forces, formed an army of tens of millions, with nine great supernatural beings whose auras permeated the heavens and earth.

The army, like a straight, sharp sword, plunged into the heart of Xiniu Hezhou, Lingshan.

Along the way, many Buddhist temples seemed to ignore us, each with its doors tightly shut, silently chanting Buddhist scriptures, appearing detached from worldly affairs.

The army of the "Alliance of Gods" ignored them, happy that these people remained neutral.

Meanwhile, at the Great Thunderclap Temple, the Buddha Wutian also learned of this bad news… (End of Chapter)
