Journey to the West Arrives: Start by becoming an apprentice of the Tongtian Sect Leader!

For Kunpeng, giving up his seat has always been an insurmountable obstacle in his mind.

Throughout the primordial world, the older generation of powerful figures all knew about this matter…

Back then, the Daoist Ancestor Hongjun preached in the Zixiao Palace.

Kunpeng is swift, so it arrived early and occupied a futon in Zixiao Palace.

At that time, the futons in Zixiao Palace were occupied by the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Hongyun Patriarch, and Kunpeng.

The two Western Saints arrived too late and did not manage to occupy a prayer mat.

But no one expected that when Jieyin and Zhunti arrived at Zixiao Palace, they began to cry and complain about how bitter, difficult, and barren the West was.

Now I hear there isn't even a single seat available.

Hongyun Patriarch, a kind-hearted old man from the primordial world, couldn't bear to see fellow Daoists Jieyin and Zhunti crying so bitterly, so he gave up his seat.

The fact that Hongyun Laozu offered his seat greatly angered Zhenyuan Daxian.

At the same time, one of the two, Jieyin and Zhunti, was given a prayer mat...

However, Jieyin and Zhunti did not give up.

The two then set their sights on the remaining prayer mats.

However, the Three Pure Ones dared not provoke Jieyin and Zhunti.

Nuwa had Fuxi behind her, and Fuxi was very close to Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi at the time, so Jieyin and Zhunti did not dare to set their sights on Nuwa's futon.

In the end, only one Kunpeng remained, without any background and all alone.

So Jieyin and Zhunti began to coerce and entice Kunpeng, threatening him to give up the prayer mat.

The others remained unmoved by this scene.

Ultimately, Kunpeng couldn't withstand the combined pressure from Jieyin and Zhunti, and despite his reluctance, he had no choice but to give up the prayer mat...

Thus, Kunpeng lost his seat, while Jieyin and Zhunti each gained their own.

At the time, no one thought much of it, assuming that the futon was just an ordinary futon and did not connect it with the position of a saint or the primordial purple aura of the heavens.

But in the end, everyone realized that these few prayer cushions represented the position of a saint.

What Kunpeng resented most was that he lost his futon and his position as a saint, but unexpectedly, Dao Ancestor Hongjun gave Hongyun Ancestor an extra piece of Primordial Purple Qi.

Isn't this pure bias?!

Why didn't I get this Primordial Purple Qi?!

And what happened next is well-known...

After obtaining the Primordial Purple Qi, the Old Ancestor Hongyun was targeted by various parties, especially Kunpeng, who played a significant role in the Old Ancestor Hongyun's demise.

So when the Buddha Tathagata was talking about letting Kunpeng relinquish the Buddha's position when his cultivation level returned to the peak of Quasi-Saint in the future, that is, when Dipankara Buddha's cultivation level returned to the peak of Quasi-Saint, Kunpeng almost had a shock!

But Kunpeng endured it all, showing no sign of discomfort on his face, and even revealing a smiling expression, as if he were completely thinking of the Western Buddhist sect.

At the same time, Kunpeng nodded in strong agreement towards the Buddha…

"The arrangement made by Buddha Tathagata is naturally excellent."

"In this way, it is indeed entirely beneficial to our Western Buddhist community."

"I never imagined that Buddha Tathagata would be willing to offer up a primordial spiritual treasure for me... This..."

Before Kunpeng could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the Buddha.

"Senior Kunpeng, I am willing to offer up this innate spiritual treasure not for your sake, but for the sake of my Western Buddhist sect."

"When Western Buddhism is doing well, everyone is doing well; when everyone is doing well, that's true well-being."

Kunpeng nodded in agreement once again.

"Yes, yes, yes... Buddha is right!"

"When Western Buddhism is doing well, everyone is doing well; when everyone is doing well, that's true well-being!"

"Only when everyone is well will our Western Buddhism be better!"

"In that case, I will follow the Buddha's arrangement. I can take the Buddha's position for now, and when Dipankara Buddha's cultivation returns to the peak of Quasi-Saint, I will return the Buddha's position to Dipankara Buddha."

Although Kunpeng said that, he didn't actually think that way.

Offer me your seat?!

Give way my ass!!!

The position of Buddha has fallen into my hands, Kunpeng! It is mine! Mine!!!

What does this have to do with Dipankara Buddha?!

He, Dipankara Buddha, is just a commoner. Does he even deserve to be called Buddha?!

Let's not even talk about whether I, Kunpeng, will return the position of Buddha to Dipankara Buddha.

You should know that the one who will become Buddha next is me, Kunpeng...

At that time, I will also reside on Mount Ling and become one of the Buddhas of the Three Worlds.

The Ancient Buddha Dipankara is right under my nose, Kunpeng, and he still thinks he can smoothly return to the peak of the Quasi-Saint realm?!

What a pipe dream!

Not killing him is already showing mercy from me, Kunpeng...

Moreover, we are currently in the midst of the Great Tribulation of Journey to the West, and the conflict between Taoism and Buddhism is intensifying.

The Heavenly Court and Buddhism have fought each other more than once, and the quasi-saints on the Western Buddhist side have been falling one after another. Buddha Julusun and Bodhisattva Mahasthamaprapta, aren't they both quasi-saints?!

Oh, right...

And there's also the Dipankara Buddha.

Although they didn't perish, it was no different from them, and even worse than those who did, as they had become the Heavenly Court's reserve food.

If I remember correctly, Guang Chengzi and his disciples of the Chan Sect seemed to have already set their sights on Dipankara Buddha.

There will be plenty of opportunities to kill Dipankara Buddha in the future.

As long as we prevent Dipankara Buddha from improving his cultivation, or even cause him to perish in this great calamity of the Journey to the West, then who would still ask me to relinquish my position as Buddha?!

Taking matters into one's own hands is the worst possible option...

The best choice is to make the people of the Xuanmen (mystical sect) my sharpest sword!

Light the lamp, oh light the lamp…

Once I, Kunpeng, become Buddha, you'll never be able to regain your Buddhahood in this lifetime!

These are the truest reflections in Kunpeng's mind at this very moment...

What Kunpeng didn't know was that his thoughts and ideas at that moment were actually part of the Buddha's plan.

The reason why the Buddha Tathagata made the matter of giving up his seat clear today was to provoke Kunpeng, so that Kunpeng would take action and deal a heavy blow to Dipankara Buddha.

Because if Kunpeng wants to continue being a Buddha in the future, he must completely destroy Dipankara Buddha.

Once Kunpeng completely destroys Dipankara Buddha, then the Buddha Tathagata's goal will be achieved...

After all, the Buddha's goal was to completely suppress and kill Dipankara Buddha.

Being able to completely eliminate the Dipankara Buddha not only cleansed the Xuanmen sect of its own turf, but also eliminated an enemy for the Xuanmen sect.

Although Kunpeng can also become Buddha.

But in reality, the Buddha knew in his heart...

Kunpeng and Buddhism are not on the same page at all.

When the ancient demon court was born, Kunpeng was the first to run away.

Moreover, Kunpeng's entry into Buddhism this time was a scheme devised by the two Western Saints.

Do you really expect Kunpeng to risk his life for Buddhism?!

Hehehehehehehe………

My plan succeeded; it was destiny!
