Heavenly Court, Taoism, Buddhism, and Xuanjiao all had a three-month battle in Nanzhanbuzhou to prove their way to Taoism.
But because it is a distanced fight, and the Taiyi Golden Immortal of Zhengdao is the backbone of all major sects, and cannot be sacrificed at will, so it is just a matter of time.
Time flies, and three months later, the results of the battle between the various parties in Nanzhan Buzhou have come out.
On the Heavenly side, the True Monarch Tianpeng Yuansheng and the True Monarch Tianyouzhide were sealed by the Buddhist Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva and Wuyi Bodhisattva and took the lead in withdrawing from the battlefield.
The three flowers on top are sealed, and no magical power can be used. Although it can be broken with one's own Taoism, it will take a lot of time. Even if you can still attack and kill with physical strength, how can Buddhism and Xuanjiao compete with you in physical martial arts?
Therefore, Tianpeng Yuansheng Zhenjun and Tianyouzhide Zhenjun had to return to the heaven to practice in order to release the seal of the three flowers on the top.
Later, in the battle between the Eight Great Ming Kings of Buddhism and the Heavenly Court and the Taoist Taiyi Golden Immortal, they were found to have flaws by the four True Lords Bixia Yuanjun, Red Jingjing True Lord, Qingxu Daode True Lord and Antarctic Immortal Weng. They worked together to put the three-flower seal on them, so they had to withdraw from the battle and return to Lingshan.
What follows is mainly a battle between Taoism and Buddhism. The remaining four Taoist Taiyi Golden Immortals from Xuanjiao did not serve as the main force in the battle, but helped Buddhism contain the power of Heaven and Taoism when necessary.
Immediately afterwards, the Taoists feared to stay Sun Zhenjun, Daoxing Zhenjun, Zixu Yuanjun, and the Buddhist Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, Medicine King Bodhisattva, Medicine Shang Bodhisattva, etc. were either seriously injured or were sealed with three flowers on their heads and retreated.
Subsequently, the fighting situation in Nanzhan Buzhou fell into a stalemate. The two sides were in a stalemate, and the fighting was not as frequent as in the past, but the heavenly army could not advance even an inch.
In this stalemate, Buddhism and Xuanjiao began to step up their defenses. The situation in front of them gave them a hint of the possibility of demarcating and defending.
But how can heaven allow them to do so? On the fifth day when the situation in Nanzhan Buzhou reached a stalemate, Emperor Gouchen issued a decree and ordered 'Xuan Tian Bless the Holy Emperor Zhenwu' to break the situation in the lower realm.
Following the decree from Emperor Gouchen, an extremely majestic figure stepped out from above the thirty-sixth level of heaven, directly across the thirty-sixth level of heaven, and arrived at Nanzhan Buzhou.
Although he is not yet the Great Luo Jinxian, Emperor Zhenwu's Taoism is already infinitely close to that of the Great Luo Jinxian. The only difference is that 'final kick'.
However, it is fortunate that Emperor Zhenwu is not Daluo Jinxian for the time being, otherwise he would not be able to be sent to the lower realms to break the situation this time.
The moment Emperor Zhenwu descended to the lower realm, all the spirits in the entire Nanzhan continent let out a soft cry. At this moment, all spirits and beasts burned incense and bowed their heads, and demons and spirits crawled and hid in the caves, shivering.
At the same time, there were bursts of mysterious sounds in the sky and the earth. Looking south, the gods and immortals of the tribes and all living things looked towards the sky. They saw a huge Dharma minister standing in the sky above the world. They saw:
There are generals in Qianyuan who wear three platforms on their heads and have round elephants in their hair. They are really powerful and powerful.
On the road to help me, turtles and snakes take photos, my body is like a mountain in the sky, and the four atmospheres are clear and clear.
The golden light is dazzling, the eyes are bright, the teeth are like sword trees, and the hand holds seven stars.
Heavenly demons, heretics, ghosts and goblins see me as blood and turn into purple dust.
Kuigang's righteousness is my own self. The heavenly talisman appears and protects the universe.
At this moment, Taiyi Jinxian, the enlightened Taoist of Buddhism and Mysticism, felt a chill go down his back, and then the Buddhist Buddha and the Mysticism leader all issued decrees: "Go quickly!"
In an instant, the Taiyi Golden Immortals of Buddhism and Mysticism all used magical escape techniques, and they were about to leave this place and return to their religion immediately.
Emperor Zhenwu watched from the sky as the dozens of Taoist Taiyi Golden Immortals rising in Nanzhan Buzhou, and immediately drew out his sword and slashed them in the air.
I could only hear the sword energy neighing and roaring all over the world, and I could see a blazing light, blocking out the sun and stars.
When I was young, I saw more than a dozen golden blood lights bursting out from all directions in the sky of Nanzhan Buzhou, and a few muffled groans resounding throughout the sky. Although the Taiyi Golden Immortal, a dozen Buddhist and Xuan sect disciples, had already used their magical powers to escape. Li, but Emperor Zhenwu's sword cut directly through time and space and fell on them.
In an instant, the physical body of the Taiyi Golden Immortal of the Taiyi Dao was directly beheaded. The magic weapon and body-protecting fairy light on the body did not play any role. After the physical body of the Buddha and Xuan was beheaded, more than ten Buddhist and Xuan sects were killed. Dao Taiyi Golden Immortal escaped back with only Yuanshen Baoguang.
Although the Taiyi Golden Immortal who has attained enlightenment has more than one physical body, being beheaded of one physical body will greatly weaken his strength, and he will not be able to recover for thousands of years.
All the Buddhist and Xuan sects, Taiyi Jinxian, who was seriously injured and returned to the sect, Emperor Zhenwu put away his sword, glanced at Nanzhan Buzhou below, and then turned around and returned to the heaven to resume his life.
Emperor Zhenwu broke the situation, and Erlang Shen immediately ordered the six armies to attack across the board!
Suddenly, the brutal fighting that had disappeared for three months in Nanzhan Buzhou was staged again, and this time the full-line attack was supplemented by three million heavenly soldiers, making the power in the hands of Erlang Shen suddenly become Extremely abundant.
As the Heavenly Court launches a full-scale offensive, Buddhism and Xuanjiao have to accept the fact that their defeat is doomed if they go south to look at Buzhou, and it is time to plan a retreat.
Looking south to Buzhou, the Buddhist country of Tianzhu, inside the main hall of Zhenguobao Temple.
The Vajra Indestructible Buddha, the Southern Treasure Buddha, the Sandalwood Merit Buddha and the Fighting Victory Buddha sit high on the lotus platform. In the guest seat, Xuanzhou Zhenjun, the deputy leader of Xuanjiao, sits cross-legged on Qingyun, his face full of seriousness. The color of condensation.
There seemed to be some silence in the main hall, but soon Nanfang Baosheng Buddha spoke: "Fellow Taoists, there is no way to rectify the incident in Nanzhan Buzhou. Is there any way to improve it?"
The eyes of the Vajra Indestructible Buddha were slightly closed, and the Sandalwood Buddha stopped talking. The Victorious Buddha even lowered his head and snored faintly from his nose.
Nanfang Baosheng Buddha had a look of helplessness on his face, and True Lord Xuanzhou also frowned. However, at this moment, a golden Buddha decree suddenly descended from the hall.
The next moment, all the Buddhas in the hall, including the victorious Buddha, stood up at the same time and worshiped the Buddha's decree: "Disciples, please welcome the decree of my Buddha Tathagata."
Then, the magnificent voice of Tathagata Buddha came out from the Buddha's decree: "The victorious Buddha will stay in Tianzhu Buddha Kingdom, and the rest will return to Lingshan Dayei Temple to see me as soon as possible."
When all the Buddhas heard this, they immediately bowed and clasped their hands together and said, "Please obey my Buddha's teachings."
Then the Vajra Indestructible Buddha, the Southern Treasure Buddha, and the Sandalwood Merit Buddha immediately turned into a ray of Buddha light and disappeared. In the hall, only the Fighting Victory Buddha and the True Lord Xuanzhou were left in the hall.
Zhenjun Xuanzhou on the side had a puzzled look on his face. He immediately said to Du Zhan Buddha on the side: "Dou Zhan Buddha, this..."
Fighting Victory Buddha glanced at True Lord Xuanzhou, and then chuckled and said: "Friends, please rest assured, Xuanjiao and our Buddhist sect are allies. If our Buddhist sect wants to withdraw, we will not ignore Xuanjiao. I believe it won't be long." After that, I, the Buddha, should have a decree to pass down."
Hearing the words of Victory Buddha, Xuanzhou Zhenjun nodded with confidence. He did not think that Buddhism would cross the river and tear down the bridge and betray Xuanjiao.
But his worries are also justified. No matter how the fight with Heaven ends, Buddhism will always have a way out and can negotiate with Heaven, but He Xuanjiao does not have this ability.
Western Paradise, Daleiyin Temple in Lingshan.
When the Vajra Indestructible Buddha, the Southern Treasure Buddha, and the Sandalwood Merit Buddha returned to the Great Leiyin Temple, and after paying homage to the Tathagata Buddha, they realized that the atmosphere here was a little unusual.
First of all, the Ancient Buddha of Lantern, the Amitabha Buddha of the West, the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha, the Vairocana Buddha, and the Northern Buddha Amitabha are not here.
Secondly, the status of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva is no longer under the original position of the Buddhas, but has fallen directly to the lower left position of Tathagata Buddha.
Finally, whether they are the Bodhisattvas who have just returned and were beheaded by Emperor Zhenwu in their physical form, or the Bodhisattvas who were originally in Lingshan, their expressions at this moment are very strange, which makes the three Buddhas feel that something is not good in their hearts. Could it be that I, a Buddhist? What happened inside?
Just after the three Buddhas finished paying homage and stood up, Tathagata Buddha spoke: "The Buddha of Sandalwood Merit has returned to his throne."
Upon hearing this, the Chan Tan Merit Buddha immediately put his hands together and bowed: "Follow the decree of the Dharma." Then he flew down to his Buddha's throne.
Then Tathagata Buddha called again: "Shariputra."
The great disciple of the Tathagata Buddha, Shariputra, who temporarily took the place of the Bodhisattva Tanhua, flew down from the Bodhisattva's throne, landed in the center of the hall and worshiped: "Disciple is here."
Tathagata Buddha issued a decree: "You accept my decree and lead the Vajra Indestructible Buddha and the Southern Precious Born Buddha to the 'Three Dharma Halls' to practice. Without my decree, you cannot leave the temple."
Upon hearing the words of Tathagata Buddha, the expressions of Vajra Indestructible Buddha and Southern Treasure Buddha suddenly changed. They finally knew why the Ancient Buddha of Burning Damp and the Great Sun Tathagata were not here anymore.
The so-called "Three Dharmas" in the Three Dharma Hall are the three true Dharmas of Buddhism, which are free from falsehoods and are said to be: all actions are impermanent, all Dharmas are selfless, and Nirvana is peaceful.
The Three Dharma Halls are presided over by the ancient Buddha of Ran Deng. They are the place where the new Buddha attains nirvana and teaches the Dharma. Of course, it is also the place where all the Buddhas "face the wall".
In other words, the sect of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas headed by Amitabha Buddha and Great Sun Tathagata Buddha in the West lost power in Buddhism and were ordered by Tathagata Buddha to go to the "Three Dharma Halls" to reflect on their mistakes.
So at this moment, the Vajra Indestructible Buddha and the Southern Precious Born Buddha had nothing to say, so they immediately put their hands together and bowed: "Please obey my Buddha's decree."
Subsequently, the two Buddhas, led by Shariputra, left the treasure hall of Daleiyin Temple and came to the "Three Dharma Halls".
When they entered the "Three Dharma Halls", they saw the ancient Buddha of the Burning Dharma sitting silently at the top of the three Dharma Halls, as well as the Western Amitabha Buddha, Mahavairocan Buddha, Vairocho Buddha, and Northern Amitabha Buddha who were also sitting silently below. Buddha
"Two World-Honored Ones, please." Shariputra said, holding out his hands to the Vajra Indestructible Buddha and the Southern Precious Born Buddha.
The two Buddhas looked at each other, then shook their heads helplessly, then stepped on the Buddha's light and flew to the futon below the ancient Buddha on the burning lamp.
"Hold the Dharma and sit silently." The ancient Buddha on the lamp said immediately when he saw the two Buddhas sitting down.
The Vajra Indestructible Buddha and the Southern Precious Born Buddha put their hands together and said, "Follow the law."
Then the Southern Treasure Buddha circulated the Dharma, all dharmas returned to silence, and officially entered the silent sitting.
The Vajra Indestructible Buddha sighed, and the figure of Fang Jian suddenly appeared in his mind. He thought to himself: "As soon as this son comes out, our Buddhist sect will be disadvantaged in every way. The reason for today's events is mostly due to this person."
Then, the Vajra Indestructible Buddha also circulated the Dharma. In an instant, all thoughts returned to ruins, all dharmas returned to silence, and he also entered the state of sitting in silence.
Shariputra bowed to the ancient Buddha on the burning lamp, then turned and left. After walking out of the Three Dharma Hall, he tied the Tathagata Buddha's decree on the door of the hall, and then returned to the treasure hall to resume his life.
After Shariputra came back to the Tathagata Buddha, he returned to his seat and sat down.
The next moment, Tathagata Buddha faced all the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Mingwangs, Arhats and other monks and said: "From today on, all major Buddhist affairs will be presided over by Venerable Avalokitesvara. All matters, big or small, need to be decided by Venerable Avalokitesvara first."
After the words of the Tathagata Buddha fell, all the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Mingwangs, Arhats and other monks in the treasure hall stood up and clasped their hands and bowed: "Please obey my Buddha's decree."
