Chapter 159: Internal strife in the Western religion, on the eve of disaster!
At the top of Sumeru, Sanskrit music lingers endlessly.
The Buddha and Bodhisattvas chanted Buddhist sutras in unison, and hundreds of millions of believers and monks clasped their hands together, showing their piety.
Immersed in the profoundness of Buddhism, the soul can be sublimated in this sacred atmosphere.
At the highest point of the treasure hall, the ancient Buddha Lantern slowly opened his eyes, and his gaze swept across the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas around him.
His face was full of pain and struggle, and his aura became vast and thick. The sharpness and majesty of the past were completely hidden at this moment.
"Destiny is inevitable!"
"In the past, Wutian personally ended the life of Fuhu Arhat, and then disappeared into the nine heavens."
"Now, he has been preparing for a long time and is aiming directly at our Mount Sumeru. A catastrophe is about to begin."
The lamp-burning ancient Buddha sighed softly.
After months of hard deliberation, I could not find a good way to break the situation, and my heart was full of anxiety and powerlessness.
The two sages of the West went into seclusion to cultivate, leaving him alone to guard the foundation of Western religion.
However, his state of cultivation is far inferior to Wutian, so how can he be willing to sit back and wait for death?
As an innate god, the Ancient Buddha of Ran Deng had the honor to listen to the sermons of Taoist Hongjun in the Zixiao Palace, so he disdained the evil act of massacring all races and seeking personal gain.
But because he enjoys the title of Buddha, he inhales countless incense in the world.
As the first person among the two sages of the West, he should have rectified Western religion, but he chose to turn a blind eye and failed to truly sympathize with all living beings.
Under the intertwining of cause and effect, the ancient Buddha of Ran Deng cannot escape the entanglement of karma.
Now, Wutian has regarded him as his primary enemy. Although he is heavily guarded, he is still hard to find.
"Dear Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, do you have any solution to this problem?"
"To challenge Wutian head-on is tantamount to seeking death!"
"How can we get a brighter future if we give in a little bit?"
"Anyone who causes wanton harm to the world will be punished by Wutian."
"Even this Buddha has no power to protect himself, let alone you!"
"Do you really want to witness the tragic scene of rivers of blood and corpses strewn across the fields?"
The ancient Buddha of Ran Deng saw that everyone bowed his head and remained silent. His heart ached, and he beat his chest and stamped his feet and sighed.
It is indeed difficult to turn things around on your own.
However, Medicine Master Glazed Light Buddha, Maitreya Buddha, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva and others all have clear minds and are endowed with great wisdom and great luck.
Randen Ancient Buddha naturally hopes that they can give him guidance.
The atmosphere in the hall was deathly silent, and time and space seemed to have frozen at this moment.
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva holds a jade purification bottle and exudes a peaceful aura.
She spoke softly, her voice flowing like a clear spring, and said: "Amitabha, Deng Deng Buddha, the poor monk thinks that the situation has not yet reached the point where everything is broken."
"Since Wutian wants to liquidate the Western religion, we will stay out of the way for the time being."
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva nodded slightly and continued: "It is true that most Buddhas and Bodhisattvas do not truly understand the Buddha's way. They only occupy high positions, enjoy the incense of the world, and perform the appearance of universal salvation. However, this sin does not lead to death."
"Only those Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, believers and monks who are like crouching tigers and arhats who harm all living beings will fall into eternal calamity and be thrown into the endless hell by Wu Tian."
"Therefore, the poor monk suggested that we adopt the strategy of cutting off the strength of a strong man, letting Wutian's divine power wreak havoc first, and then looking for another opportunity."
As one of the Twelve Golden Immortals in prehistoric history, he was a powerful figure who planned the eighty-one disasters in Journey to the West.
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva quickly understood the meaning of heaven.
Since I am unable to resist, I surrender for the time being.
She knew very well that as long as everyone truly repented and truly worked for the benefit of all peoples, they might be able to seek forgiveness from Wu Tian.
As for those Western religious people who have committed serious sins, they can only reluctantly give up.
After Guanshiyin Bodhisattva finished speaking, there was a lot of discussion in the palace.
Many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas were wailing and trembling, as if they had foreseen their own tragic fate.
Most of the Bodhisattvas and Buddhas, on the other hand, expressed their joy at the rest of their lives and breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Medicine Master Liuliguang Buddha spoke sternly: "Everyone in the Western religion should share the same hatred and fight against the evil demon Wutian." "If we abandon our former sect members, what is the difference between us and those evil beasts who do not respect etiquette and justice?"
"Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately; the sea of suffering is boundless, but you can turn back and find the shore!"
"The poor monk thinks that asking fellow disciples to die to atone for their sins is ridiculous and goes against the harmony of nature."
"Lord Ran Deng Buddha, please consider carefully and don't hurt the hearts of your fellow disciples."
As the leader of the Western religion, Medicine Master Liuliguang Buddha knew that he could not give in.
Otherwise, the foundation that Western religion has worked so hard to establish and its prestige in the ancient world will be destroyed.
He and his direct disciples will also be criticized, become the target of public criticism, be criticized verbally and written, and become a laughing stock.
No matter how unbearable the Buddha, Bodhisattvas, believers and monks are, Medicine Master Glazed Light Buddha cannot betray Western religion.
He firmly believed that he must advance and retreat together with Western religions.
"Elder brother is so merciful, we can't thank you enough!"
"Although Wu Tian is an evil demon and crooked, no matter how high his realm is, he cannot destroy my entire Western religion."
"Although we have sinned deeply, we still have backbone."
The Happy Arhat is wearing a red cassock, with a solemn expression and a compassionate smile between his brows and eyes.
Among the Eighteen Arhats, his cultivation is second only to the Arhat Subduing the Dragon and the fallen Arhat the Crouching Tiger.
Although everyone knew that he looked compassionate on the surface, he was actually lustful and indulgent.
He is well versed in the art of dual cultivation, and often uses the blending of yin and yang to enhance his realm.
Since joining the Western religion, he has been doing evil things secretly, and many capable female fairies and fairies have unfortunately become his furnace and become his tools to enhance his strength.
After hearing the righteous words of Medicine Master Liuliguang Buddha, Huanxi Arhat naturally agreed with him in every possible way for the purpose of self-protection.
He was full of worries, fearing that he would be liquidated by Wutian and end up with the terrible end of being destroyed physically and mentally.
"Everyone, please be quiet!"
On the futon, the lamp-burning ancient Buddha shouted angrily, and the powerful aura of the early Quasi-Sage swept out like a raging wave.
The restless people were immediately suppressed by this momentum and did not dare to say a word.
His eyes were full of fierce killing intent, staring closely at Happy Arhat.
He was afraid that he would confuse the public with his evil words and incite the Medicine Master Glazed Light Buddha, thus pushing Western religion into the abyss of destruction.
As a Buddha, he was never willing to become a loner and lose the foundation and prestige of Western religion.
After careful consideration, the ancient Buddha of Randeng repeatedly considered various plans.
In the end, he decided that Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva's idea was the safest and most feasible.
The Ancient Buddha of Ran Deng waved his jade sleeves lightly, the Taoist voice flowed, and he said calmly: "The dispute between us and Wutian is actually a battle of doctrines and a battle of great ways."
"But having said that, Mahayana Buddhism is so mysterious that even this Buddha and the two saints failed to understand its essence."
"For the sake of the ultimate principles of Buddhism and the foundation of Western religion, we have no choice."
"Medicine Master Glazed Light Buddha, please put the overall situation first and don't make any mistakes!"
The billowing Sanskrit sound filled the palace, and the solemn sound seemed to penetrate the soul.
As soon as the ancient Buddha of Ran Deng spoke, he looked directly at Medicine Master Glazed Buddha.
The latter was unable to stand alone. Under the majestic gaze of the ancient Buddha, he could only lower his head sadly like an eggplant beaten by frost, and helplessly closed his eyes.
At this moment, the faint demonic energy swept towards Mount Sumeru like a raging wave.
Wutian sat cross-legged on top of the twelve-level world-destroying black lotus, with a tall and straight posture and a stern expression.
Around him, several figures exuded thick and pure devilish aura, and that powerful aura made people feel frightened.
Obviously, Wutian came prepared this time, with unstoppable momentum.
The day of disaster for Western religion has finally arrived.
