Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.
During this period, the city of Chang'an was peaceful and peaceful, and all the demons and ghosts became law-abiding citizens, except for the Buddhists.
"Plop!"
Wearing gorgeous silver armor, a black cloak, and holding a three-pointed two-edged sword, Yang Jian looked like a god of war descending to earth. He carried a man in black with one hand, walked out of the mansion, and threw him outside the gate.
"Pilgrim Hui'an, don't waste your efforts. You alone can't save the Bodhisattva."
The man in black fell to the ground in embarrassment, reached out and took off his hood, revealing Muzha's face.
He was lying on the ground with a bruised nose and swollen face, looking aggrieved, and said:
"Erlang Xian Sheng Zhenjun, why do you want to help the emperor do evil?"
Yang Jian shook his head, closed the door without explaining.
Helping the tyrants?
No, he took care of Muzha just for the sake of his good friend Nezha.
Otherwise, if he is allowed to wander around and offend Emperor Gouchen, he will be peeled off even if he is not dead.
Even if he doesn't stop him and others don't take action, Muzha's attempt to rescue Guanyin Bodhisattva is just a fool's errand. With his cultivation in the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, he can't even cope with the power of the Immortal Diagram to operate independently.
"Hui'an Walker, are you okay?"
Seeing that the door had been closed, Arhat Subduing the Dragon walked over and helped Mu Zha up.
"Damn it, those Gou Chen Emperor and Erlang Shen are going too far!"
Muzha looked angry.
The Dragon-Subduing Arhat sighed and said: "Forget it, it's just a matter of three things. Don't push in any more. The people in this mansion are very difficult to deal with. We alone can't save the Bodhisattva...
Let’s wait for the news from Lingshan. Calculating the time, it’s time for the top management to take action.”
Mu Zha was silent.
Although he is not weak, his opponent is too strong.
Yang Jian is the leader of the third generation of disciples of Yuxu Palace. He has practiced the Eighty-nine Mysterious Techniques, his body has become a saint, and he has a genuine Daluo-level physique. He is unparalleled in battle and is more difficult to deal with than the average Daluo Golden Immortal.
The Third Holy Mother's cultivation level is not high, but she has a lotus lamp to protect her body.
Taiyin Star Lord/Fairy Chang'e and Nine Heavens Mysterious Girl are not something he can deal with.
Even if the Buddhists in Chang'an City rushed in together, they would not be able to save the Bodhisattva.
"I see."
Mu Zha looked dejected and could only follow the Dragon Subduing Arhat and leave the street.
After passing through the bustling streets and bustling streets, the two came to a temple.
Outside the temple stood a group of loose immortals from all over the world. All major forces, including some immortals from heaven, were there, as well as a few crying female loose immortals.
They were yelling and cursing.
"You are a shameless bastard. Why can't you admit it if you dare to do it? Sakya Bodhisattva kidnapped my sister to make a furnace. You Buddhists actually have the nerve to stand up for him?"
A big man in the realm of earthly immortals blocked the door of the temple and cursed loudly.
The casual cultivators around them all echoed and cursed Buddhism, and some even threw stones, vegetable leaves, and rotten eggs inside.
Seeing this, the Subduing Dragon Arhat looked helpless and took Muzha with him to enter through the back door of the temple.
After the Colorful Scale Fairy (Medusa) made Sakya Bodhisattva's crimes public, Buddhists became like street rats in Chang'an City, and their reputation was so bad that they even affected several local temples.
After entering the temple lobby, Muzha asked:
"What did Mother Lishan say?"
In the final analysis, this incident originated from the other party's disciples.
"My old mother said that Sakya Bodhisattva deserved his punishment. Her disciple Cailin Fairy was the victim in this matter and was not at fault. She had already communicated with Emperor Gouchen about Guanyin Bodhisattva and hoped that he would release him, but Emperor Gouchen refused.
Already."
The Dragon Subduing Arhat said helplessly.
Mother Lishan has no intention of fighting with Buddhism. She is willing to intercede for Guanyin Bodhisattva, which shows her sincerity.
But the problem now is that Gou Chen doesn't want to let him go, and he doesn't even give Lishan the face...
Mu Zha's face changed slightly. He did not expect that Mother Lishan's intervention would not work, so she said in surprise:
"The Great Emperor Gouchen is too domineering. He seems determined to go against Buddhism. Do you think this is the intention of the Great Heavenly Lord... the higher-ups in Heavenly Court?"
Arhat subduing the dragon and Arhat the crouching tiger looked at each other with worried expressions on their faces.
Does Heaven want to suppress Buddhism?
They did not think deeply in this direction at first because the current situation in the Three Realms was relatively stable and there was no reason to start a dispute between Taoism and Buddhism.
However, Emperor Gouchen had some abnormal behavior, which forced them to guess that this was not his personal behavior, but the will of the higher-ups in Heaven.
If so, you're in big trouble.
Fuhu thought for a while, then shook his head and said:
"No, there is no conflict of interest between Buddhism, Heavenly Court, and Taoism in the general direction, and the possibility of repeating the canonization of gods is very small."
Recalling Yuanshi Tianzun's actions in launching the Battle of the Gods and liquidating the Buddhist sect, Mu Zha felt a little numb and did not dare to say anything more.
There have been two large-scale exchanges between Taoism and Buddhism in history, and there have also been two large-scale disputes between Taoism and Buddhism.
During the Xia and Shang Dynasties, there was the second large-scale exchange between Buddhism and Taoism, Buddhism spread eastward, Taishang Laojun transformed Hu into a Buddha for the first time, and Buddhism and Taoism were in the honeymoon period.
At that time, the Ancient Buddha of Lantern, Guanyin Bodhisattva, Manjushri Bodhisattva and others all created Taoist bodies and joined the Sanqing sect to learn Taoism.
Sanqing and other Taoist masters also created Buddhist bodies, preached in the West, and created their own pure land.
Unfortunately, at the end of the Shang Dynasty, Yuanshi Tianzun's attitude changed drastically, and he launched a war to confer gods, not only targeting Jie Jiao, but also cleaning up the Buddhist sect...
The Arhat Who Subdued the Dragon remembered the brutality of the Battle of the Gods, and was still frightened. He shook his head and said:
"It's not necessary. After becoming a god to measure calamity, Buddhism's influence outside Xiniu Hezhou is very limited... There is no reason for heaven to go to war. There is no need to panic. I think things may not be that bad."
At this time, a ray of Buddha's light came in.
Golden lotuses bloom in the sky, bodhi trees grow, and a beautiful and moving Bodhisattva in white clothes is condensed.
"Venerable Guanyin!"
"master!"
When the dragon subdued the tiger, even Mu Zha cried out in surprise.
But when they took a closer look, they realized that it was just a projection of Guanyin Bodhisattva's spiritual thoughts.
Guanyin Bodhisattva looked calm and said:
"You don't need to panic. After Mother Lishan pleaded for mercy, Emperor Gouchen did not let me go, but he allowed me to contact the outside world for one stick of incense every day. I am safe and sound. Please don't act rashly."

………
Lingshan, Daleiyin Temple.
The Tathagata Buddha sits high on the twelve-level lotus platform of merit, with a flawless golden body six feet tall, kind eyebrows and kind eyes. The huge sun halo behind his head shines brightly. The Buddha's light ripples, candles illuminate the three realms, he has insight into the six realms, and his power is boundless.
The Great Sun Tathagata, Manjushri Bodhisattva, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, Kasyapa Venerable and others led their disciples, five hundred Arhats, three thousand monks, and Dharma Protector Jialan sat on both sides.
Flowers fell from the sky, golden lotuses surged from the ground, and Sanskrit chants and Buddhist chants resounded throughout the central whirling world.
Tathagata Buddha held the seal of Dharma in his hand and said:
"Venerable Guanyin, are you sure you can survive this calamity on your own?"
"Thanks to the great love of the World Honored One, my disciple is fine. Emperor Gouchen has not done anything offensive. This matter occurred because Sakya Bodhisattva went astray. Buddhism does not make sense. At this time, it is not appropriate to engage in a major war."
An incarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva sat on the lotus platform and spoke calmly.
"good."
Tathagata Buddha nodded happily.
He was planning his journey to the west and did not want to conflict with the higher-ups in Heaven at this time.
The key point is that they are not justified in this matter. Fairy Cailing announced the truth of the incident in a high-profile manner with conclusive evidence. Some female monks who were persecuted also spoke out. Sakya Bodhisattva's reputation was completely stink, the kind that stuns ten miles in the wind.
Even many people within Lingshan felt that he deserved his punishment and did not deserve sympathy at all.
Sakya Bodhisattva's behavior even brought black marks to the entire Buddhist sect and attracted a lot of scolding.
During this period, all forces in the Earthly Immortal Realm were cynicizing against Buddhism, which made the situation of Buddhism, which already had a weak foundation in Nanzhan Continent, even worse.
Moreover, Tathagata Buddha felt that the Jade Emperor had already intervened.
In less than a month, the scandal about Sakya Bodhisattva spread like wildfire. The four major continents, big and small, were all aware of the scandal. They almost put Buddhism on the fire...
A powerful person like Old Mother Lishan, who is still in a corner, or a newly ascended Heavenly Emperor like Emperor Gou Chen, do not have such great energy.
Needless to say, the Jade Emperor must have instigated people in heaven to fan the flames.
As soon as those lands of mountain gods were spread among the stars in the sky, the incident would naturally become the focus of the three worlds.
He knew the other party too well, and when he had the opportunity to add insult to injury and read Buddhist jokes, the Emperor of Heaven was more positive than anyone else...
Avalokitesvara Consciousness generally means that the Buddha also intended to put things to rest, but some people disagreed.
Luya, the Great Sun Tathagata, was sitting on a huge lotus platform. His whole body was radiant, like a blazing sun. He looked serious and said righteously:
"World Honored One, how can this matter be dismissed lightly? Emperor Gouchen has repeatedly provoked Buddhism, and now he dares to suppress Guanyin Bodhisattva. He is so bold and reckless. Buddhism should respond forcefully and teach him a lesson!"
These words were echoed by many Bodhisattvas and Arhats.
Emperor Gouchen stepped on the future Buddha and promoted power in the three realms, and now suppressed the venerable Guanyin Bodhisattva in Lingshan, which aroused the dissatisfaction of many people.
"Maitreya Buddha, what do you think?"
The Great Sun Tathagata also looked at the future Buddha and deliberately made fire.
He hated Gou Chen Dijun so much that he wished that a big Buddhist man would trouble him.
Maitreya Buddha smiled but did not answer.
He suffered defeat at the hands of Emperor Gou Chen many times, but speaking of it, he provoked first every time, and the other party just fought back.
Moreover, he is not like Daojun Lu Ya, because Emperor Gouchen became a lost dog and lost all the important magic weapons in his body.
His hostility towards Gou Chen was not great, at most he was unhappy, not particularly hateful.
It wasn't until Tathagata Buddha looked at him that Maitreya Buddha clasped his hands together and said with a smile:
"This matter is all decided by the World Honored One, but I think it is better not to make a big fuss anymore. Sakya Bodhisattva's behavior disgusts all the gods and immortals, and his reputation is too bad. Buddhism continues to stand out for this matter, and the impact is very bad."
He may even become the laughing stock of the three worlds.
Because the Jade Emperor has already intervened.
This could not be hidden from the various bigwigs who were familiar with his style of doing things. The Great Heavenly Lord would not let go of this opportunity. He would send people to fan the flames and put eye drops on Buddhism without Gou Chen taking the initiative to contact him.
Whether this matter is big or small, no religion can completely ignore worldly reputation and influence.
The incarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva said sincerely:
"Everyone, let's end this matter. After a hundred years, the poor monk will naturally be able to escape from his predicament. This small calamity can be regarded as a kind of training...
In addition, Venerable Great Sun Tathagata, please be sure to severely punish the Happy Buddha lineage in order to rectify the Buddhist sect's pure rules."
Great Sun Tathagata's expression was stagnant, and he didn't say anything on the surface. He was very unhappy in his heart.
After all, he is a monk who has become a monk on the way. Although he has quasi-sage cultivation, after joining Lingshan, he was arranged by Mother Chunti to take charge of a tantric sect that was not very popular with the Buddha. His foundation was somewhat shallow, and his future development potential was far less than that of Maitreya.
Buddha.
This naturally made him very unhappy.
"good."
Tathagata Buddha was very satisfied with the attitude of Venerable Avalokitesvara. He was intelligent and knowledgeable, and could be entrusted with important tasks.
Perhaps, we can leave her in charge of traveling to the West in the future?
He was thinking in his mind, glanced at the Great Sun Tathagata, and said:
"Honorable Great Sun Tathagata, the practice of Tantric Buddhism is somewhat eccentric, and it is easy to be contaminated by the six desires of the mortal world and the karma of cause and effect. Now that you are in charge of Tantric Buddhism, you should strictly follow the precepts and punish the black sheep, so as to rectify the original source and clean up the source. Scandals such as Sakya Bodhisattva should be avoided as much as possible.
"
This is beating.
You can be resentful towards Emperor Gouchen, but you should not continue to instigate him when it is obvious that nothing can be done, even at the expense of the overall interests of Buddhism.
"Listen carefully to the teachings of the World Honored One!"
Lu Ya, the Great Sun Tathagata, was trembling in his heart, knowing that his intention of making fire was too obvious and had caused the Buddha's displeasure.
Of course, he did not intend to punish the Happy Buddha lineage, but wanted to comfort them in private.
Anyone who has conflicts with Emperor Gouchen is his potential ally and his pawn.
He has never suffered such a big loss since his debut. No matter what, he must take revenge. At least he must find a way to take back the Immortal Killing Gourd, the imitation Chaos Bell and the Fuso Sacred Tree!
This involves his path and is not just a personal grudge.
Later, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas dispersed.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Only one incarnation of Tathagata Buddha and Guanyin Bodhisattva is left in the Great Leiyin Temple.
Suddenly, a spiritual lamp appeared.
The Buddha's light shines, the vast Pure Land of Sambhogakaya, the Buddha's Kingdom as many as the sands of the Ganges River, the twenty-four heavens, manifest themselves one by one, the glazed fairy lamp of Lingjiu Mountain illuminates the three realms.
boom!
Another five-color fairy light circulated, breaking through the vast void, opening up the grand mist, deriving all things, and manifesting a huge peacock covered in chaotic fairy energy!
Kong Xuan's projection got straight to the point: "Honorable Guanyin, can Emperor Gouchen really set up the Zhoutian Xingdou Formation and the Hunyuan Heluo Formation on his own?"
"That's true. Although both formations are incomplete, when combined, the power is terrifying. Unless it is a great giant that kills three corpses, there is no possibility of breaking the formation."
"Amitabha."
The ancient Buddha of Ran Deng clasped his hands together and sighed, "He is another great figure from all ages. With such ability, the old monk may not be able to suppress him."
Kong Xuan also looked a little sideways, but he was still arrogant and said with great interest: "I am willing to take a trip to see what this God of War can do."
"There is no need to fight over emotions."
Tathagata Buddha rejected his proposal.
Emperor Gouchen did not cut off the connection between Guanyin Bodhisattva and her incarnation, which proves that he has no evil intentions in his heart. Buddhists can also guess a little bit of his thoughts.
It is not a dispute between Taoism and Buddhism, it is just a personal invitation to fight.
But Tathagata Buddha didn't want to pay attention to this kind of behavior of deliberately making a fight after eating too much.
The same goes for Guanyin Bodhisattva. She has been seriously injured and is recuperating in seclusion wherever she goes.
Being half-sealed in the immortal map did not completely cut off contact with the outside world, which did not affect her recovery.
"forget about it."
Kong Xuan shook his head, dispersed the projection, and the five-color divine light disappeared.
The glazed lamp also flew away.
In the Great Leiyin Temple, calm was restored.
………
A few days later.
The sky is clear and clear, cloudless.
Wuxian Tower is suspended in the air on the side of the Imperial Palace in Chang'an City, a piece of jade palace. Every brick and tile of the palace is carved from jade. It is magnificent and dreamlike!
This immortal palace building cannot be seen by mortals, only immortals and Buddhas can see it.
On this day, a group of immortals, Buddhas and demons gathered together on the second floor of Wuxian Tower.
In the purple jade-like fairy palace, human musicians played fairy music, the silk and bamboo were sweet, and the songs were moving. In the central lotus pond, the mist was misty, and dozens of young girls in feathers danced gracefully, singing and dancing in a graceful way.
Some Yanhan soldiers who had mastered human immortal martial arts shuttled between the banquets, and from time to time offered nectar, jade liquid, dragon ginseng and phoenix wings to all the guests to taste, making people feel as if they were in the Lingxiao Palace.
This is the most top-notch fairy banquet, extremely luxurious.
This time it was Shennong who entertained all the immortals, Buddhas and demons. He was not as weird as Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han. He treated everyone with ordinary delicacies and his etiquette was impeccable.
"This is human immortal martial arts, it's really magical..."
The Bull Demon King was chewing dragon meat while staring intently at the five volumes of martial arts scriptures in the air.
The five scrolls of the Immortal Sutra float on the ceiling of the Immortal Palace, changing unpredictably. Sometimes they turn into stars in the sky, auspicious clouds and glow, sometimes they turn into wind, frost, rain and thunder, the four seasons, and sometimes they turn into gods, emperors and demons holding divine weapons.
Zun, sometimes transformed into various orifices of the human body...
The immortal method is profound and mysterious, and vaguely reveals a powerful martial arts fist that suppresses all the ways of heaven and earth and pushes past, present and future!
All the immortals, Buddhas and demons looked at it in ecstasy, and their hearts were shocked.
So many people have forgotten the fine wine and jade liquid in front of them, and only focus on comprehending the mysteries of human immortal martial arts.
Ren was sitting by the window on the second floor, almost occupying a table to himself. He held Jiutian Xuannv and let her sit on his lap, touching her face with great intimacy. He kissed her from time to time, completely ignoring others.
He looked at several temples in Chang'an City. The protesting monks outside had dispersed, and the monks in the temples had temporarily moved away.
"Tsk, you actually chose to avoid it?"
"It's not surprising. The matter has already become a big deal. If Buddhism tries to stand out, it will only become a laughing stock. It is better to compensate the victims, avoid the limelight, and wait for the storm to pass."
Jiutian Xuannv's face was flushed, and she was not used to being so close to her lover in public.
The strange looks from some people around her made her very shy, and she couldn't break away from his arms.
"Did the Great Heavenly Lord add fuel to the flames? I saw Taibai Jinxing standing outside the temple a few days ago. Was it you who suggested it?"
"No, stepping on Buddhism is one of the great hobbies of the Great Heavenly Lord. I don't need to support the fire."
"..."
The old boy Jade Emperor is quite interesting.
Not long after, Medusa climbed onto the Wuxian Tower. She walked over with swaying steps, smiled charmingly at Ren, and poured him wine.
Concubine Xuan, the good corpse master of Guanyin Bodhisattva, was released alone and had his shoulders and back beaten.
Ren held the all-powerful Nine Heavens Mysterious Girl in his arms, while enjoying the music and dance, and the service of the Snake Fairy and the Female Bodhisattva, with a look of contentment on his face.
Many immortals, Buddhas and demons felt a little sour when they saw the scene here.
Really big guy, huge guy.
She suppressed Guanyin Bodhisattva and treated her like a maid, but nothing happened.
In a month, if I had wanted to take action, I would have taken action, but there was no news from Lingshan.
Buddhism actually tolerated it?
"You...don't do this, I can't...enlighten."
Jiutian Xuannv was a little jealous when she saw Shi Fei Xuan and Huan Huan serving him.
But Ren was so shameless that he kissed her and blocked her mouth.
"Immortal Scripture? What's so rare about this? If you want it, I'll give it all to you."
Ren smiled faintly, his fingers flickered, and he touched Xuan Nu's eyebrows.
Xuannv's delicate body trembled, and she suddenly opened her eyes wide. The nine volumes of Human Immortal Martial Arts were shining brightly in her sea of consciousness. The complete Human Immortal Martial Arts was like a few bright lights, illuminating her path forward.
Her eyes lit up, the martial arts will burst out in the sea of consciousness, the art of war and talismans sublimated, the center of her eyebrows shone, and a Daluo Dao fruit surrounded by fairy light emerged!
The quasi-saint monks have begun to touch the way of heaven. The fruits of the way are floating in the purple air, and the fluctuations of magic power are soaring into the sky, and the heaven and earth are feeling it.
boom!!
The next moment, fairy light, auspicious clouds, smallpox, and wonderful sounds descended, and the purple energy was majestic. A blue light went straight up to 30,000 miles, five-color smallpox fell randomly, golden lotus swelled from the ground, and various auspicious omens, such as Ganoderma lucidum, Yaocao, etc. appeared from all over the fairy tower.
It grows in the corner, and if a human monk can get one, he can embark on the path to immortality.
"The purple energy is majestic, the green light is rising into the sky, and someone has proven to be a quasi-sage!"
“Incredible!”
"It's Jiutian Xuannv, she has attained enlightenment!"
