Primordial Era: The Ten Deadly Formations are Broken, Shen Gongbao Asks Me to Come Out of the Mounta
Chapter 206 The Buddhist Sect's Self-Destructive Approach!
Urgent! Major plot twist! Watch now!
After all, the rise and fall of dynasties in the human world is crucial to the prosperity of Buddhism.
However, the Qin state was backed by the underworld witch clan, so how could Zhunti and Jieyin possibly plot against them?
As for secretly plotting to hasten the demise of the Qin state.
This is utter nonsense.
The rise and fall of dynasties in the human world is not something that can be easily interfered with. If one is not careful, one will be entangled in the karma of human affairs, and even a saint will be at a loss.
Moreover, the Wu tribe is no pushover.
With three top-tier shamans residing in the Qin Kingdom, and behind them was the Ziwei Emperor Zhao Gongming, even a saint with three corpses would have to leave behind an innate spiritual treasure before leaving.
Under these circumstances, seeking trouble with the Qin state would be nothing short of asking for trouble.
Just as Zhao Gongming had predicted.
With the attention of Empress Pingxin and the presence of three top-tier shamans, the Qin state, which originally based its existence on slaughter, was like a warhorse that had been reined in, and began to follow the path of benevolence.
As a result, the Zhou royal family, which had already lost the support of the Chan sect, suffered a complete collapse.
The process of dynastic change has also gotten on track.
The Emperor Star descended to earth, transforming into King Ying Zheng of Qin, who immediately launched the war to unify the human race after personally leading an expedition.
In just twenty years, it destroyed six major vassal states, leaving only some small peripheral states in Jambudvipa.
Originally, Ying Zheng was going to start the war to unify the human race, but this was naturally blocked by the will of Heaven. Soon, the Xiongnu tribe appeared.
Of course, even the Xiongnu tribe could not withstand the iron hooves of the Qin Empire in the face of the Wu tribe.
However, following Zhao Gongming's warning, the Qin state did not launch any further wars, but instead built the Great Wall to keep the Xiongnu tribe at bay.
Thus, the Zhou royal family was destroyed, the Qin Empire was established, and the witch clan in the underworld, blessed by the fortune of humanity, was able to successfully arrive in the realm of immortals.
Of course, the Qin laws were strict, and there were many restrictions on the witch clan in the underworld. This was to prevent the witch clan from creating negative karma and ruining the Qin state's fortune.
The Qin Empire was thus able to prolong its reign.
This scene must have disgusted Zhunti and Jieyin in the chaotic starry sky.
The Zhou royal family has just passed away. Judging from the current state of Qin, its reign is likely to be even longer than that of the Zhou royal family.
This is unbearable!
If things continue like this, when will Western Buddhism flourish?
Ironically, it was the witch clan that took the initiative to go to the underworld to persuade them to join the change of dynasties in the human world!
But before Zhunti and Jieyin could react, a major event occurred in Buddhism that left the two saints completely bewildered.
On this day, in the Immortal Realm, Zhao Gongming's voice resounded, proclaiming to the Three Realms: "By the Heavenly Dao above, I, Zhao Gongming, the leader of the Shangqing Sect, today use the Twelve-Petaled Golden Lotus of Merit to suppress the destiny of the Supreme Being! May the Heavenly Dao bear witness!"
Rumble!
Just as Zhao Gongming finished speaking, the Shangqing Sect, which originated from the Jie Sect, experienced a surge in fortune.
At the same time, the fortunes of Buddhism plummeted, leaving Zhunti and Jieyin completely bewildered.
Amitabha Buddha!
The Twelve-Petaled Golden Lotus of Merit?
What you, Zhao Gongming, hold is the Twelve-Petaled Golden Lotus of Merit, then what do we Buddhists hold?
Oh!
By the way, his Buddhist twelve-tiered Golden Lotus of Merit was bitten by that dead mosquito and lost three tiers, leaving him with only a nine-tiered Golden Lotus of Merit now.
Upon realizing this, everything went black before Zhunti and Jieyin's eyes.
The workings of Heaven are all governed by predetermined laws.
Although the Buddhist Golden Lotus of Merit was previously demoted to the third rank, the ninth-rank Golden Lotus of Merit is still unique in the Three Realms.
It is certainly sufficient to suppress the fortune of Buddhism.
But now, Zhao Gongming, you've pulled out the Twelve-Petaled Golden Lotus of Merit. Isn't this putting Buddhism on the spot?
Even more terrifying.
The Nine-Rank Golden Lotus of Merit is no longer able to perfectly suppress the Buddhist fortune. As the fortune continues to dissipate, even though Buddhism is flourishing.
Like the Jie Sect back then, it was like a dragon soaring high in the sky, only to regret it later. Just as it reached its peak, it was about to plummet into the deepest hell.
This is definitely not the scene that Zhunti Jieyin wanted to see.
In this way, the idea of dynastic changes has long been forgotten by Zhunti and Jieyin. The most pressing issue now is to resolve the problem of the object suppressing the Buddhist fortune.
Left with no other choice, Zhunti had to ask, "Senior brother, what should we do now?"
"The fortunes of our Buddhist sect are unstable; if it were to flourish in the future, it would likely be courting its own destruction!"
The rise and fall of dynasties are inevitable. If the fortunes of Buddhism are stable and the sect prospers, it is naturally a good thing.
If fortune is unstable, then the flourishing of Buddhism could be a death knell.
After a moment of contemplation, Jieyin suddenly spoke up: "Junior brother, when the fortunes of the Jie Sect were unstable, why did Tongtian keep recruiting disciples?"
Could it be that they truly cannot bear to see cultivators without a path to enlightenment?
Upon hearing this, Zhunti was taken aback at first, but then he came to his senses and said, "What you mean is that the Tongtian Sect Leader keeps recruiting disciples."
It seems like they're teaching without discrimination, but in reality, it's about stabilizing the fortunes of the Jie Sect?
Jieyin nodded and said, "I think that's how it is!"
Junior brother, have you noticed? Our Buddhist sect's fortune has increased considerably after we helped the beings of Xiniu Hezhou to attain enlightenment!
Upon hearing this, Zhunti was immediately delighted, but soon another question came to mind.
"Senior brother, this method can only solve the immediate problem, but it is no different from drinking poison to quench thirst!"
The more disciples one has, the more astonishing the karmic burdens and consequences will become. If the disciples are of mixed quality, my Buddhist sect may suffer the same fate as the Jie sect!
Looking at the Renjiao and Chanjiao sects, their direct disciples are only about ten in number.
Was it that Laozi, the founder of Taoism, did not want to accept disciples?
Besides their high standards, they probably also didn't want to recruit too many disciples of varying quality, lest they ruin the great sect's fortune.
Looking at the fate of the Jie Sect, if it weren't for the Investiture of the Gods and Zhao Gongming's efforts to turn the tide, they would probably have been completely wiped out long ago.
After hearing this, Jieyin couldn't help but sigh, "Alas!"
While the method of drinking poison to quench thirst is unacceptable, this humble monk cannot think of a better solution...
"Our Buddhist sect does possess top-grade innate spiritual treasures, but those suitable for suppressing the fortune of a major sect are extremely rare!"
Upon hearing this, Zhunti fell into deep thought, and after a long while, he finally spoke: "That's the only way!"
However, this method is not entirely unusable; it just requires some remedies, such as restricting the disciples to prevent them from damaging the Buddhist community's fortune!
"Oh? Junior brother, please tell me in detail?"
Jieyin's eyes lit up, realizing that his junior brother had come up with another idea.
"Senior brother, during the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods, Zhao Gongming established the Three Rules of the Intercepting Sect to reverse the loss of the sect's fortune!"
Since that's the case, why don't we follow that fellow's example and establish Buddhist precepts to regulate the behavior of our disciples!
In this way, one can both benefit from the disciples' good fortune and prevent them from committing evil deeds that could bring disaster to Buddhism!
After pondering for a moment, Jieyin nodded and said, "Good!"
However, this matter is quite offensive.
Their own personal disciples naturally couldn't do these things. Thinking of this, Zhunti and Jieyin exchanged a glance and came up with a candidate.
