Mediating nature, reversing yin and yang, returning to heaven and returning to the sun, knowing the future against the will, etc...
Since Lu Bu has learned the Thirty-six Transformations of Tiangang that no monkey has the chance to learn, he has to pay a price. Saints especially admire cause and effect. Even if Saint Zhunti has fallen, this saint still has cause and effect with Lu Bu. With the strength of Lu Bu's soul and the existence of such unscientific things as the reincarnation cycle, it stands to reason that Lu Bu should have returned to his true self long ago. The fact is that Saint Zhunti sealed the circle of reincarnation with his own Saint Seal.
What is the sage Zhunti going to do?
Squeezing out the value of Lu Bu's natal soul is simply the lowest choice. Zhunti likes to collect some strange things. The Holy Mother Turtle Spirit was brought back to the Western religion by Zhunti. Kong Xuan was suppressed by Zhunti himself. Dapeng was also captured by Zhunti. Obviously, Lu Bu has strong qualifications that can make saints seduce. With his great freedom, Lu Bu can face the three top Bodhisattvas of Buddhism, and these three Bodhisattvas are all the Twelve Golden Immortals who once explained the teachings. Therefore, even if Saint Zhunti dies, it will not prevent him from having great ideas about Lu Bu.
There are many reasons why Saint Zhunti accepted Lu Bu for Buddhism. The most fundamental reason is: only one of the empress and Lu Bu can survive!
Sage Houtu undoubtedly chose the Empress, because the Empress inherited the path of the Wu Clan's Nine Transformations Mysterious Kung Fu, and she was also suspected to be the immortal spirit of the Nine Phoenix Great Witch, who borrowed Lu Bu's Killing Wolf Fate Block to resurrect her from the dead. Moreover, if Saint Zhunti had a choice, he would choose the empress. Just take a look at the performance of the empress. She first took down the origin of the golden-winged roc and the wind and thunder, and then crushed the indestructible Yang Jian head-on. She even used the life mark of the real person Yuding to obliterate her past as a nine-year-old. Everything about Feng Dawu. Now, the empress has only one last option left, which is to devour Lu Bu and completely impose Lu Bu's fate on herself. By then, even becoming the thirteenth ancestral witch in heaven and earth would not be a bad idea. She is not even an ordinary ancestral witch. The Empress will become the only ancestral witch in history who possesses the Wu Clan's Nine Turns Mysterious Skill and the Dao Sect's Nine Turns Yuan Gong.
Although Saint Zhunti was not optimistic about Lu Bu, he had no choice. In fact, the reason why Buddhism was able to get Lu Bu's card was entirely because Houtu Saint and Sanqing did not deal with them, and they would rather take advantage of Buddhism than Sanqing. This time, in the battle between Lu Bu and the Empress, either the Empress devours Lu Bu and gets her complete destiny, or Lu Bu takes down the empress and gets back the other half of his destiny. There is no third outcome. The reason why Saint Zhunti asked Patriarch Bodhi was because he wanted Lu Bu to win this duel.
Saint Zhunti did not hesitate to use his saint's mark to seal Lu Bu's reincarnation circle for the same reason. If Lu Bu defeated the empress, Saint Zhunti would not allow Saint Houtu to control Lu Bu again through the reincarnation cycle. Moreover, it doesn't matter even if Lu Bu loses, Sage Zhunti can also use this to understand the secret of the Great Way of Reincarnation of Sage Houtu.
This is the real deal between Saint Zhunti and Saint Houtu. Saint Houtu wants Lu Bu to inherit the physical body and soul of the Buddhist disciple. When Lu Bu reaches the right level as a Buddhist disciple in the future, he will be blessed with great fortune from heaven and earth. . By then, once the empress devours Lu Bu, not only will she be able to successfully become an ancestral witch, but she will also have the hope of attaining enlightenment through meritorious deeds. On the contrary, for the Chunti saint, the human book is just an addition. Buddhism can control the netherworld through the human book, thereby gaining more Buddhist merits and giving birth to more Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. At the same time, Saint Zhunti can also understand the reincarnation of Saint Houtu.
However, what really made Saint Zhunti make up his mind was that the Buddhist side could afford to delay, but the Wu clan could not afford to delay!
If the empress wants to devour Lu Bu, obtain the complete destiny, and obtain all the Nine Revolutions Xuan Gong and Nine Revolutions Yuan Gong, there is a prerequisite, that is, Lu Bu must be completely awakened. If Lu Bu never awakens, then the empress will never be able to devour Lu Bu. Therefore, Sage Zhunti agreed to the deal. Although Lu Bu couldn't defeat the Empress, Saint Zhunti could always seal the cycle of reincarnation and prevent Lu Bu from awakening. As long as Lu Bu doesn't wake up for a day, Buddhism can firmly hold the two cards of Ren Shu and Lu Bu in his hands.
As for the six-winged golden cicada, isn't Saint Zhunti worried that once Lu Bu awakens, the six-winged golden cicada's spirit will disappear from this world?
Unless the saint takes action, Jin Chanzi will definitely be fine. Even if Lu Bu occupies Jin Chanzi's tenth reincarnation, even if Lu Bu digests Jin Chanzi's soul, and even takes away Jin Chanzi's fate and luck. None of this matters, because the golden cicada will not die. Once the golden cicada dies, his original soul mark will return to his six-winged golden cicada body. After swallowing some of the original soul, it will soon be restored.
Bet, this is a huge gamble between Saint Houtu and Saint Zhunti!
The saint Houtu bet that Lu Bu would be able to successfully revive his original will before the study of Buddhist scriptures from the West was completed and before Jin Chanzi became a Buddha. At that time, Lu Bu and the empress will have a battle, and the battle will determine fate and luck.
Saint Zhunti bet that even though he had sealed the cycle of reincarnation, it would be impossible for Lu Bu to regain his true spiritual will before the end of the pilgrimage to the West. You know, there is only one Houtu, but there are two saints in Buddhism. Saint Zhunti's saint's mark has entered the circle of reincarnation and restrained Hou Tu in the circle of reincarnation. Now Lu Bu's body does not have the Zhunti Saint Mark for the time being, but this does not prevent Jieyin Saint from adding another Saint Mark. As long as Lu Bu cannot break through the blockade of the Seal of the Saint, he will become the Buddhist Master Tripitaka.
Buddhism is famous for being lazy. Of course, there is a reason every time.
This time, Buddhism’s reason was extremely clever. That is to say, the reason why Sage Jieyin put the mark of saint on Lu Bu was not to restrict Lu Bu's recovery. It's because Jin Chanzi is the Golden Chanzi of Buddhism. Now that Saint Zhunti has fallen, the saint's mark used by Saint Zhunti to protect Jin Chanzi has disappeared. In order to prevent some people from plotting against Jin Chanzi, Buddhism must put the mark of the Holy Spirit on Jin Chanzi's soul to prevent accidents.
...
Patriarch Bodhi did not participate in the plans of the Yingyin Saint and the Zhunti Saint. Whether the Yingying Saint wanted a letter from the witch clan or the Zhunti Saint wanted to understand the reincarnation path of the Houtu Saint so that he could return to the holy position, Bodhi The Patriarch doesn’t care at all!
Patriarch Bodhi accepted the monkey as his disciple, which was the cause and effect between himself and the saint who accepted him.
Patriarch Bodhi accepted Lu Bu as his disciple, which was the cause and effect between himself and Saint Zhunti.
From then on, Patriarch Bodhi had no connection with Buddhism. Unless Saint Chunti can return to the status of a saint, no one can change the will of Patriarch Bodhi. Patriarch Bodhi may not be a qualified great master, but he is definitely a qualified master. He does not allow anyone to plot against his disciples.
It is obvious that both Jin Chanzi and Lu Bu have become disciples of Patriarch Bodhi, but why does Patriarch Bodhi only recognize Lu Bu as his disciple?
The answer to the question is already obvious. Saint Jingyin and Saint Zhunti thought they had the overall situation under control, but Patriarch Bodhi did not think so. Between Jin Chanzi and Lu Bu, Patriarch Bodhi was more optimistic about Lu Bu...
