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

Therefore, the Buddha clearly understood the matter of the Kunpeng...

Although Kunpeng kept saying that he was temporarily taking over the position of Buddha and that he was stabilizing the fortunes of Western Buddhism.

But in reality, how could the Buddha not understand what Kunpeng was thinking?

When undertaking great tasks, one should cherish one's life; when faced with petty gains, one should forget righteousness.

This is the most accurate description of the Kunpeng.

If Kunpeng is truly willing to dedicate himself to Mount Ling and to the Western Buddhist sect, then even the Buddha would dare to write his own name backwards!

From now on, the characters "多宝" will be changed to "宝多"!

However, the Buddha would naturally not reveal his thoughts.

In other words, from the current perspective, the conversation between Kunpeng and the Buddha was perfect...

In Kunpeng's mind, the Buddha was indeed a good Buddha of the West, who was wholeheartedly seeking development for Western Buddhism.

In order to stabilize the fortunes of the West, he was even willing to give up a primordial spiritual treasure to Dipankara Buddha.

At the same time, Kunpeng also believes that he must be a great, bright and upright person in the eyes of the Buddha.

After all, who else could agree to relinquish the Buddha's position without hesitation, just like I did?

Kunpeng thought his disguise was perfect, but in reality, the Buddha could see right through him...

The Buddha nodded.

"Since you have already said so, senior, I am willing to support your temporary appointment as the Past Buddha, one of the Three Buddhas."

"After all, everything is for the West, everything is for Buddhism!"

"Just please don't repeat what you said before..."

"After all, this humble monk is willing to support you, senior, not because he wants to become Buddha and then turn around and support me, nor because he wants to create any factions within my Western Buddhism."

"I will pretend that you did not say these words."

"As for the matter of Buddha, this humble monk will raise it with the Sage!"

Upon hearing the Buddha's words, Kunpeng was overjoyed.

But Kunpeng still decided to reiterate his stance.

Kunpeng felt that the reason why the Buddha was willing to support him was not only because he was wholeheartedly dedicated to the development of the West, but also because of the words he had just expressed.

Otherwise, since they are not related by blood or marriage, on what basis would the Buddha support them?

While seeking development for the West, the Buddha also benefits, which is why people are willing to support him. Otherwise, what would happen if the Buddha stopped supporting him?

Upon realizing this, Kunpeng immediately bowed to the Buddha without hesitation.

"Amitabha Buddha~~ Excellent, excellent~~~"

"Buddha, please don't overthink it."

"The reason I said those things just now was not because I wanted to form any factions or start any struggles, but because I sincerely believe that Buddha Tathagata is a Buddha who truly does practical things for the Western Buddhist community!"

"Therefore, I am willing to stand on the side of Buddha Tathagata and support all of Buddha Tathagata's decisions. Only when the three Buddhas are of one mind and work together can our Western Buddhism become better and better."

"Just as the Buddha Tathagata just said, everything is for the Western Paradise, everything is for Buddhism!"

Amitabha Buddha~~

Nowadays, Kunpeng looks exactly like a Buddha. Except for not being bald and not wearing a kasaya, he speaks in a manner no different from a bald monk.

This time, the Buddha didn't say anything more, but simply nodded slightly and slowly stood up...

Kunpeng also knew that this conversation was basically over.

He had said what needed to be said. The Buddha was willing to support him, and as for Dipankara Buddha, he would definitely crush him in the future!

And so the two of them left the side hall one after the other…

The main hall was still bustling with activity.

Although Kunpeng is no longer there, the Buddhas of Mount Ling are still chatting with each other.

Some young monks and nuns came and went, preparing a banquet.

As Kunpeng and Buddha returned to the Great Buddha Hall one after the other, several gazes from within the hall converged on the two of them.

Besides the Buddhas of Mount Ling, the ones who cared most about the two were Bodhi Buddha and Dipankara Buddha…

The Buddha Tathagata had previously agreed with Bodhi Buddha to test Kunpeng, so Bodhi Buddha wanted to see if Kunpeng was suitable to become one of the three Buddhas of Mount Ling.

The reason why Dipankara Buddha paid attention to the two of them was simply because he had a sudden whim.

This feeling is just too strange...

Especially as time went on, the feeling of unease in his heart grew stronger, which made Dipankara Buddha restless.

The Ancient Buddha of the Burning Lamp did not see any unusual expressions on the faces of Kunpeng and Tathagata Buddha. The two were as usual. Kunpeng returned to his guest seat, and Tathagata Buddha returned to his Buddha seat and sat cross-legged.

Bodhi Buddha saw that Tathagata Buddha and Kunpeng had finished their conversation, so he quietly transmitted his voice.

"Buddha, what is Kunpeng's stance?"

The Buddha lowered his eyes slightly, and after hearing the Bodhi Buddha's telepathic message, he also replied to the Bodhi Buddha with his own telepathic message.

"Your Majesty, I just had a long conversation with Kunpeng, especially about the three Buddhas of Mount Ling and the fortune of our Buddhist sect."

"Kunpeng truly has a heart of dedication to our Western Buddhism and has expressed his willingness to take over the position of Buddha during the period when Dipankara Buddha's cultivation was damaged, and to return the position of Buddha to Dipankara Buddha after Dipankara Buddha's cultivation has recovered."

"If that's really the case, then it would be excellent."

"With Kunpeng taking the place of Buddha, the three Buddhas of Mount Ling will stand side by side again, and the fortune of Buddhism will not be damaged. Once the cultivation of Dipankara Buddha is improved, everything can return to normal."

"Of course... all of this still requires the Sage's approval. This disciple is merely making a slight probe. Everything will be arranged by the Sage."

After hearing the Buddha's telepathic reply, Bodhi Buddha nodded to himself and then sent another telepathic message to the Buddha.

"Amitabha Buddha~~ Excellent, excellent~~"

"I am already aware of this matter. Since that is the case, I will bring it up at the banquet later."

"As for Dipankara Buddha, this humble monk will also compensate him with an innate spiritual treasure. At the same time, I will prioritize allocating Buddhist merits to Dipankara Buddha to help him return to the peak of the Quasi-Saint realm as soon as possible."

"In that case, Dipankara Buddha shouldn't think too much about it..."

"After all, once his cultivation returns to the peak of Quasi-Saint, he will still be the Buddha of my Mount Ling."

Upon hearing these words, the Buddha nodded to the old Buddha Bodhi and then transmitted his voice again.

"I will follow the sage's instructions."

"Everything for Buddhism!"
