Chapter 159: Buddhism and Taoism stand side by side
As a purple bamboo staff slowly took shape in front of his eyes, Yang Tuo changed the technique in his hand.
Countless talismans and Dao patterns flew out of the hand and were constantly imprinted into the purple jade-like bamboo body.
As the techniques in his hands change, various scenes appear around him. Sometimes it rains heavily, sometimes there is cold dew and frost, sometimes there is heavy snow, and sometimes it is windy and sunny.
However, the twenty-four solar terms that Yang Tuo understood were imprinted into the bamboo stick one after another. Each bamboo section corresponds to a solar term.
In the bamboo body of the Purple Jade Bamboo Staff, the originally unchanged space also experienced corresponding changes.
From top to bottom, four patterns of spring, summer, autumn and winter are finally formed on the bamboo body. Each character corresponds to six bamboo nodes.
The changing seasons represent the passage of time. It represents birth, growth, maturity and death, like a complete cycle.
On the bamboo body, there are also the imprints of the sun, moon and stars, which are pulling the stars around the sky all the time, tempering them with infinite brilliance.
As the technique deepens, wind, rain, thunder and lightning surround the bamboo staff, and countless avenues circulate on it.
These are the Tao that Yang Tuo has understood, but the root of this bamboo stick is still the twenty-four solar terms. All external manifestations are the evolution of the twenty-four solar terms.
While Yang Tuo was refining his own treasure of enlightenment, a voice came from the void. This voice was like the sound of the great road, making people fascinated when hearing it.
Just listen to the voice saying: "I, the Supreme Moral Master, Lao Tzu, now establish a religion called 'Tao' to inherit the Taoism of Xuanmen. With Sanqing as the leader, he combines people, explains, and cuts the three religions into one, which is regarded as the authentic Taoism.
Taoism is established!"
With a loud shout, endless Taoist sounds circulated between heaven and earth. In the invisible void, the fate of the three religions of Renjiao, Chanjiao, and Jiejiao continued to come together, forming an unknown path.
There is a long river of luck that never goes anywhere, and this luck is almost endless.
At this time, Yuanshi Tianzun, who was in Qingwei Tianyuqingjing, watched all this, and countless luck flowed from Chanjiao to the new Taoism.
However, Yuanshi Tianzun did not stop it. I have already discussed the current situation with him.
In the Battle of the Conferred Gods, Jiejie suffered heavy losses and almost destroyed the sect. Although Junior Brother Tongtian's path went in the wrong direction, he and his senior brother personally took action and created a rift in the relationship between Sanqing.
As the head of the Three Purities, Laozi naturally could not let the Three Purities go further and further. Then he came up with a way to unify the three religions so that there would no longer be disputes about orthodoxy.
After Yuanshi Tianzun discussed it, he established Taoism, which allowed the three religions to be unified into one, with the three Qing Dynasties as the leader, to compensate for the serious damage suffered by Junior Brother Tongtian.
You can also inherit the Xuanmen Taoism of the Taoist ancestors and gather the fortune of the Xuanmen. Since the Taoist ancestors merged with the Taoism, the Xuanmen have been scattered and each has its own affairs, and the Taoist ancestors have not paid attention to it.
As the first disciple of Taoist Hongjun, Laozi can naturally inherit his Taoist tradition when Taoist no longer manages Xuanmen.
The Battle of the Conferred Gods was actually a civil war in Xuanmen. Jiejiao suffered heavy losses, and Chanjiao also suffered losses.
The Three Pure Ones are originally one body, and it can be said that if one is prosperous, both will be prosperous, and if one is damaged, both will suffer. If the leader of Tongtian Cult is damaged, how can Laozi and Yuanshi live well?
Now that Taoism has been established, gathering Taoist luck can just make up for the losses in the battle to confer gods.
As for the leader of Tongtian Cult in Yuyu Heaven’s Shangqing Realm, he naturally heard Laozi’s voice. He understood that it was his senior brother who was compensating him.
However, how could the rift be eliminated so easily? Although he did not prevent the unification of the three religions, he also did not give up his obsession with the war of gods.
It was agreed that everyone should rely on their abilities, and those with shallow roots will be on the list. I don't want Yuanshi to take action personally, bullying the small with the big, and Guangchengzi is causing trouble in Biyou Palace. If he doesn't take action, how can he lead the Jiejiao? I don't want to end up creating a saint.
war between.
However, Lao Tzu and Yuan Shi asked outsiders to deal with him together. This was the reason why Tongtian Cult Master couldn't let go.
As the saying goes, brothers stay in the wall and resist insults from outsiders. But these two people did the opposite, inviting outsiders to deal with their own brothers.
As the third oldest leader of Tongtian Cult, he still doesn’t understand why. Just because he has never blocked the unification of the three religions does not mean that he will give up.
It's just that the disciples of Jiejie have lost his leader and the most precious treasure of the sect. Now they are in a bad situation in the wilderness.
The three religions merged into one, and the disciples of his Jiejiao were all included in Taoism. With Laozi's Tai Chi diagram and Yuanshi's Pangu flags suppressing luck, the situation of Jiejiao's disciples would be much better.
At this time, the two saints who were invited to the Western Heavenly Paradise felt a little bad.
They also came out of Taoism. Laozi established Taoism and inherited Taoism. With their luck in Western religions, they will naturally be attracted to Taoism.
In addition, after they returned to the Paradise, they discovered that the twelfth-grade Golden Lotus of Merit and Virtue, the treasure of the Sect, had lost its third grade.
The ninth-grade golden lotus of merit is not enough to suppress the destiny of the entire Western religion. Seeing the continuous passage of destiny, Zhunti couldn't help but said: "Senior brother!"
The frowning brows of Saint Jie Ying became even more painful. He asked, "Junior brother, is this really the case?"
Sage Zhunti said: "Brother, if this is not the case, our Western religion will always live under the Three Purities."
The expression on the saint's face became even more sad, and he finally sighed and said, "Junior brother, please understand that once you take this step, there will be no room for maneuver!"
But Taoist Zhunti said: "We have no way out now!"
The saint recited in a low voice, and then nodded. When he raised his head again, there was a firm look in his eyes.
The sage Jieyin opened his mouth slowly and said: "Master Jieyin, I am now opening a new religion outside Xuanmen, called 'Buddha'. I am the leader of Buddhism, Amitabha! Buddhism is established!"
After speaking, he recited the Buddha's name in a low voice: "Namo Amitabha!"
Saint Zhunti followed and said: "I am the mother of the Buddha Chunti of Buddhism, Namo Chunti Buddha!"
Saint Zhunti also recited his Buddha's name in a low voice.
As the words of the two saints fell, the Taoist robes on their bodies immediately turned into cassocks.
The image of the two of them is no longer the Taoist attire, but the attire of the Buddha of later generations. However, the two of them are outside the Taoist gate, opening a side door, and no longer belong to the Taoist gate.
The luck that had been passing by had just stopped. Taoism inherited Xuanmen, and now the two of them established a side sect and broke away from Taoism to resolve this disaster!
When a group of Western disciples saw the two teachers acting like this, they also changed their clothes and chanted the Buddha's name: "Namo Amitabha! Namo Zhunti Buddha! My Buddha is compassionate!"
Laozi, who was in the Dachitian Taiqing Realm, looked in the direction of Hezhou, Xiniu, and sighed for a long time: "The two Taoist friends who are leading us, Zhunti, are indeed very wise!"
With the establishment of Taoism and Buddhism, many people with great supernatural powers in the world were also shocked. For a while, the world was in chaos.
The world, which had been peaceful for a while, was in turmoil again!
At this point, the world's sects were divided into two, Buddha and Taoism. Immediately, a long dispute between Buddhism and Taoism began!
