Having received Lady Pingxin's permission, Zhunti felt somewhat at ease.

However, he was not at ease, because Zhao Gongming was not someone to be trifled with. The Buddhist sect had clashed with him several times, but had not gained any advantage.

At this moment, Zhao Gongming was also pondering the intentions of the Western sage before him.

Given this sage's self-serving nature, he would naturally not do something so thankless and exhausting.

After a moment's thought, Zhao Gongming realized that the bald monk's trip to the underworld for the change of dynasties in the human world was probably a prelude to the Buddhist sect's planning for the Journey to the West.

But isn't this a bit too hasty?

After all, it's still a long time before Emperor Taizong, who dreamt of slaying the dragon, is born.

Not to mention that one, even King Mu of Zhou, who wanted to go to Kunlun in the west and admire the beauty of the Queen Mother of the West, had not yet been born.

Is Buddhism already making its moves?

But on second thought, this is probably also related to his creation of the Three Realms Virtual Universe.

After all, the resources of fortune in the Three Realms are limited. If the Jie Sect takes more, then the Buddhist sect will naturally take less.

However, it was more than enough to simply drive the change of dynasties in the human world and have the three corpses of saints come to the underworld.

Today, this saint himself has come to the underworld; he probably has other plans.

Just as Zhao Gongming was pondering, Zhunti smiled and said, "Emperor Fengdu, we parted ways during the Great Tribulation of the Gods, and now we meet again!"

Although the Emperor and our Buddhist sect have prejudices, our Buddhist sect has no ill will towards the Emperor!

If the Emperor and my Buddhist sect each attain the Ten Kings' Fruit, then whatever the Emperor does in the Three Realms thereafter, as long as it is not detrimental to my Buddhist sect, it will be fine.

I wonder what Your Majesty's opinion is!

Just as Zhao Gongming had predicted, the arrival of the Sage Zhunti today was not merely for the purpose of instigating the change of dynasties in the human world.

However, he still had some ideas about the position in the underworld, thinking that he could rely on his saintly status.

Furthermore, with the help of the Witch Clan to return to the Immortal Realm, exchanging a position in the Underworld with Lady Pingxin would not be difficult. Who would have thought that Zhao Gongming would suddenly appear out of nowhere?

Thinking about this, Zhunti also had a headache, but things that needed to be said still had to be said.

"Hehe, a position as one of the Ten Kings of the Underworld in exchange for the Buddhist sect not targeting me, Zhao?"

"Does the Sage Zhunti think that I, Zhao, am no longer able to wield my sword? Or is the Zhuxian Sword Formation no longer sharp enough?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Gongming spoke with a cold smile, but in his heart he was secretly making plans.

This bald monk never fights a battle he can't win. Since he knows his character, and still offers such conditions, he's probably preparing a bargaining chip that the monk can't refuse.

Otherwise, a dignified sage of the Heavenly Dao would not do something that would bring shame upon himself.

What kind of bargaining chips they are is currently unknown.

However, since this bald monk is so confident, his prepared bargaining chips are probably not simple either.

As the saying goes, it's better to guide than to block.

Since the Buddhist sect so desperately wants a position in the underworld, why is it so confident?

He should think carefully about what position to give him so that he can gain benefits while also taking advantage of the Buddhist community.

After all, these bald monks never care about what they do.

Since that's the case, don't blame this emperor for being like this.

As his thoughts raced, Zhao Gongming had already devised a countermeasure.

At this moment, upon hearing Zhao Gongming's mockery, Zhunti remained calm and said, "Your Majesty, what are your demands for granting a position to our Buddhist sect, as I just mentioned?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Gongming immediately adopted a detached and desireless demeanor and said, "I will create a virtual universe and gather resources from the three realms!"

Your Buddhist sect is located in a remote corner. Although it has profound cultural heritage, do you really think you can produce that Golden Lotus of Merit?

Moreover, I, the Emperor, would not dare to take anything from your Buddhist sect. Even though Hongyun didn't take anything from your Buddhist sect, he still met such a tragic end!

"If I, this Emperor, were to take anything from Buddhism and become entangled in karma with them, who knows who I would be able to seek justice from when I perish and my cultivation vanishes!"

"Why does Your Majesty say such a thing? I..."

Before Zhunti could explain, Zhao Gongming interrupted him directly, saying, "Stop talking nonsense."

Even if the underworld is short of people, it will not allow the Buddhist sect to move in!

I know your style of doing things very well.

If this door is opened, it probably won't be long before the underworld is filled with your Buddhist disciples!

At that time, it's uncertain whether the underworld will be under the jurisdiction of the Taoists or the Buddhist sect.

Therefore, I have no interest in Buddhist things, nor can I afford them!

"I have other important matters to attend to, so I must take my leave!"

It's no wonder Zhao Gongming acted this way; it's just that the Buddhist community does things in a truly unethical manner.

Before the underworld could even invite Buddhism to reside there, a Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva suddenly appeared and forcibly took up residence in the underworld, vowing that the underworld would not be empty until it was emptied.

Although Ksitigarbha's actions were somewhat illogical, wasn't this just a disguised way of refusing to leave the underworld?

This is all without the underworld speaking up. If it were to open that door, with the Buddhist sect's machinations, he dared not even imagine what the underworld would become.

Pooh!

You wicked beast, you're all old foxes, what are you pretending to be for?

Isn't the concern that Buddhism might use this as an excuse to usurp the throne and take over the underworld?

Although the Buddhist community also has this idea.

But it seems unlikely at present.

However, if the Witch Clan were to step out of the Underworld and prosper in the Three Realms, the importance of the Underworld would likely rise to a new level.

Moreover, two of his Buddhist disciples, Dipankara and Ksitigarbha, are trapped in the underworld.

If we could manage to secure a position of authority, even if we didn't plant any disciples, it would be quite possible to at least find an opportunity to rescue these two.

After thinking it over, Zhunti suppressed his nameless anger and immediately said, "Your Majesty, please wait!"

"This humble monk has come with sincerity. Please hear me out before making a decision, shall we?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Gongming feigned impatience and said, "Please begin your performance!"

Upon hearing this, Zhunti nearly blew smoke from his seven orifices in anger.

You beast!

I am a sage of the Heavenly Dao. If I weren't in the underworld, would you really think I wouldn't dare to attack you?

Ok.

It seems like they really don't dare.

Thinking of the great cause of Buddhism, Zhunti could only suppress his agitation and smiled, saying, "If the Emperor agrees this time..."

Our Buddhist sect is willing to offer a top-grade innate spiritual treasure in exchange for one of the Ten Kings!

In Zhunti's view, this condition was already quite generous.

Top-grade innate spiritual treasures are not as common as cabbages, and the top-grade innate spiritual treasure that the Buddhist sect has brought out is one of the few remaining treasures of the Buddhist sect.

The Ten Kings of the Underworld are far inferior to the Four Emperors, so a top-grade innate spiritual treasure is already quite a generous offer.

However, upon hearing this, Zhao Gongming looked at Zhunti with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot and said, "A top-grade innate spiritual treasure?"

That's it?

You bald monk, do you really think that a top-grade innate spiritual treasure will make this emperor open this door?

In return, I will offer a top-grade innate spiritual treasure in exchange for a Buddha position on Mount Sumeru. As for who I appoint to this position, that is none of your business in Buddhism.

However, in my opinion, the dog under Erlang Shen's command has a close relationship with your Buddhist sect. It would be more than qualified to be a Buddha.

What does the Sage Zhunti think?
