"The real Dharma lies in the Great Leiyin Temple in the Great Western Tianzhu Kingdom."
Sakyamuni's voice echoed endlessly in Yixia Academy, and there was silence under the podium.
Everyone couldn't help but look in surprise.
Unexpectedly, this Sakyamuni, who had previously been refuted and had nothing to say, could now talk eloquently.
There is even a profound meaning between the words, which is very different from before.
Could it be that Buddhism is really wonderful?
"The Western Land has been recovered by Your Majesty a long time ago. Now the world is unified. How come I have never heard of the other Great Western Heaven? Where is this Tianzhu Kingdom?"
"It is said that to the west of the Qilian Mountains, there is an extremely high mountain range called the Kunlun Mountains. This mountain should not belong to the world. It stretches tens of thousands of miles across and is tens of thousands of feet high. It is called the roof of the world by the people of the West."
"Before the immortal creations appeared, almost none of us merchants had ever been there. After the appearance of the immortal creations, the Great Shang Dynasty was blocked by the immortal realm of the human world. It was not until the king opened the corridors of the human world that anyone took the risk of crossing by the heavenly machine chariot. Kushan, we’re there.”
"Oh? Is there such a place? Could it be that this country of Tianzhu is on the roof of the world?"
"No, this Kunlun Mountain is inaccessible and there is no country. They also sacrificed more than a dozen Taoist friends before they could barely climb to the top of Kunlun and appreciate the scenery of Kunlun on earth. After descending from Kunlun Mountain, they were honored again The frost army captured him, but he was the only one who escaped and wrote a journey to the west."
"What I said is all recorded in this Journey to the West."
"This...still doesn't say where Tianzhu is?"
"Journey to the West finally records what this man saw on the top of Kunlun. He said that standing on Kunlun Mountain and looking to the west, there is a vast land with scorching heat, desert, severe cold and ice and snow. The country of Tianzhu should be there There."
"What! There is such a vast land to the west of Kushan..."
"Yes. However, Kunlun on earth is extremely steep, especially in the west, where there are almost cliffs. There are even many places where wind, water, and fire are raging. People thousands of miles away will explode to death if they take a look at it. If there is a Daxi Tianzhu Kingdom and a Da Leiyin Temple in this world, they should be in this far west."
"Hiss... It's so dangerous to go here to learn scriptures, but Shakya is not afraid?"
"Isn't this how a person who has enlightened the Tao should be like this?"
"Before the Buddha entered the Taoist treasure, we don't know whether he is the Tao or not."
"There are all kinds of ways in the world, but there are only right ways and evil ways."
…
Lingshan.
Da Leiyin Temple.
Medicine Master Tathagata still returned to the lotus throne, and dozens of lotus flowers bloomed gracefully in the dragon pond in front of him.
The luck of Buddhism on Lingshan suddenly increased by one point.
The Western Buddhas all looked at each other, nodded slightly, and smiled.
It can be seen that this person who learns the scriptures is not important but important.
He is said to be unimportant because he is a mortal and relies on guardians to survive the disaster.
He is important because he is a symbol of Buddhism and can even be called a son of Buddhism.
Medicine Master Tathagata looked at the blooming lotus at his feet, and the Buddha's light bloomed on his face. He pinched the orchid in his hand, manifested the scene of Yixia Academy in the Great Leiyin Temple, and said:
"Sage, the prince of the Sakya clan who lives in the east is ready to go west to obtain Buddhist scriptures."
"I wonder where the Guardian is now?"
Mount Sumeru, the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.
Zhunti was practicing with He Jie Yin with his eyes closed. Hearing the words, he opened his eyes and said:
"The Guardian has gone."
After he finished speaking, the Western Buddhas couldn't help but be shocked and looked towards Jizhou and Yixia Academy.
However, they saw nothing.
Just as they were wondering, a few auras of peak immortals suddenly appeared between heaven and earth!
The first one came from under the Nine Netherworlds, to the west of the Underworld, from the Netherworld Sea of Blood!
Another one came from the depths of Beiming, from the Demon Clan Temple!
The last one
, from a blacksmith shop in Chang'an City.
The spiritual consciousness of the Western Buddhas was scanned in three places, and they couldn't help but frown. They were about to ask why the sutra protector didn't look for it from the Great Leiyin Temple, but they heard Zhunti's voice.
"The sutra guardian's relationship with the fate of the world in the future is extremely important to our Buddhist sect. We should all choose from our Buddhist sect..."
"But Emperor Xin is powerful and has Tongtian and Nuwa behind him to help him. It is difficult to rely on Buddhism alone."
"So, Pindao can only give up the positions of the two guardians."
"Nowadays, in these nine heavens and ten lands, there are not many strong people who dare to protect my Western teachings."
…
at this time.
The sea of blood in the underworld.
Ancestor Styx stood in front of the gate of Blood Sea Palace, with hundreds of thousands of Asura clan kneeling in front of him.
The hundreds of thousands of Asuras are all cultivators, and the ones with the lowest cultivation level are Earth Immortals. What's even more frightening is that there are tens of thousands of Celestial Immortal cultivators among them.
If this was known to the outside world, it would probably shock the whole world.
Today, it is recognized that Jiejiao has the largest number of monks, with a total of only one hundred thousand immortals, most of whom are earthly immortals.
And the Asura clan, which has always been laughed at by the gods and gods, actually has tens of thousands of gods!
Even Buddhism, which had just been established, could hardly compete with the Asura clan.
Ancestor Styx looked at the monk in front of him. There was no pride in his eyes, but deep disgust in his eyes.
Because the Asura clan is a failed race, lacking in seven emotions and six desires. They only know killing and reproduction in their hearts. They are either killing or creating humans every day, so they cannot achieve immortality at all.
What's even worse is that the lifespan of the Asura clan is even shorter than that of the human race.
Even an immortal may only have a lifespan of ten years.
So much so that he has to continue to cultivate the Asura clan, otherwise after a few decades, all the immortals in front of him will be dead.
Fortunately, the Asura clan was born from the sea of blood, and relying on the innate spiritual energy that still remains in Pangu's dirty blood to practice, almost all of them can become immortals within a few years.
However, Asura does not enter reincarnation after death, and his spiritual energy still returns to the sea of blood.
Therefore, the sea of blood will never dry up, and the Asura clan will never be destroyed.
He looked at the hundreds of thousands of Asuras who lacked emotion and intelligence in front of him with disgust. After searching for a long time, he reluctantly gave up.
Because, among this generation of Asuras, none has a complete spiritual intelligence.
After speaking, he turned around and looked at the kneeling figures in the Blood Sea Palace.
They are all spiritual beings born from the Asura clan over hundreds of millions of years.
The auras of these people are extremely powerful, ranging from Golden Immortal to Hunyuan Golden Immortal.
Kneeling at the front, each one has a cultivation level above that of Daluo Jinxian. They are the four demon kings of the Netherworld and Blood Sea, Zizi Tianbo Xun, Brahma Tian, Lust Tian and Shiva.
After the four demon kings, there are the four demon generals of the Asura clan, Indra, Vishnu, Rutra and the Ghost Mother.
After the four great demon generals, there is Heavenly Concubine Umo and the seventy-two Asura princesses she gave birth to.
Styx sighed. Since he created the Asura clan after studying Nuwa to create humans, the Asura clan has produced countless billions of people, but in the end, there are only less than a hundred Asuras with enlightened spiritual wisdom.
These one hundred Asuras are already the entire power of the Netherworld Blood Sea.
Among them, the four great demon generals and the four great demon kings were the creatures that were born after he secretly abducted the souls of several demon generals during the Dao Demon War and secretly penetrated them into the Asura clan.
When Styx turned around, the sea of blood rolled behind him, directly drawing hundreds of thousands of the Asura clan into the sea of blood to multiply. Then he raised his eyes to look at them and said:
"It has been hundreds of thousands of years since the Asura clan has seen a fully intelligent clan member. Each of you is very important to the Asura clan. Especially Umo and my Asura princesses. For hundreds of millions of years, you have Although no clan members with complete intelligence have been reborn, I believe that the hope of the Asura clan lies in you."
"And now, there is an opportunity before us to change the fate of the Asura clan."
After Ming He finished speaking, the sea of blood behind him suddenly rolled up into waves. On top of the sea of blood, a human race was preaching at the Yixia Academy, and a magnificent temple standing on the Lingshan Mountain.
Brahma asked: "Ancestor, who is this and where is this temple?"
Styx said calmly: "This person's name is Sakyamuni, and he is the person chosen by the Western saints to learn scriptures."
Several Asuras couldn't help but be stunned: "Prayer?"
Styx nodded, smiled faintly, and said:
"Now Di Xin has unified the nine states, completely flattened the immortal realm on earth, driven the destiny of heaven back to the sky, and won the battle of the gods."
"Kyushu's luck is already so powerful that it is comparable to the luck of Heaven."
"Now, the Second Sage of the West is jealous of Kyushu's luck. Finally, he lost his temper and took out all the foundations of Western religion. He established Buddhism in the Western Continent. He did not worship Hongjun and broke away from Taoism."
"Zisheng and Zhunti are now fighting a battle between Buddhism and Taoism, using their luck as a bet."
"Zhunti, knowing that he is no match for Di Xin, gave up the position of a sutra protector to me, the Asura clan."
After Minghe finished speaking, there were bursts of exclamations in the Blood Sea Palace. The Asura clan couldn't help but raise their heads, with shock in their eyes.
The most shocking ones were the four demon kings and the four demon generals.
They heard things they thought they would never hear.
Western Continent!
Although the Asura clan who were born from the souls of demon generals are no longer demons, they still have the blood of the Asura clan in their bodies, and they only worship the River Styx and no longer worship Rahu, but the memories deep in their souls still make people feel... They have indescribable feelings for the Western Land.
Tianbo Xun couldn't help but ask: "Ancestor, hasn't the Western Land been destroyed by the demons long ago? I remember that when the ancestor rescued us from the Western Land, hundreds of thousands of spiritual veins in the Western Land had been completely destroyed by the demons. The clan detonated, the heaven and earth shattered, the five elements dissipated, and the four chaotic phenomena in the chaos rushed in. How could the two sages of the West establish an orthodoxy in a place like this?"
Styx looked at the Xitu Continent and said faintly: "If I hadn't said it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it, ancestor. For hundreds of millions of years, Jie Yin has transplanted spiritual roots everywhere, searched for heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and Maitreya even used acquired human seed bags. Suck away the spiritual energy everywhere and kidnap the human race..."
"But among the gods and gods, no one believes that they can change the Western Continent..."
"I didn't expect that they actually did it."
"If you mention the forty-eight great ambitions, one of them can be considered completed."
Asuras such as Tianbo Xun, Brahma, Lust and Shiva all looked at each other, with joy in their eyes, and then the joy turned into evil aura, with a murderous tone in their tone, and said:
"Ancestor, do you want to take back the Western Continent?"
Styx looked at the Demon King whose eyes were gradually filled with killing, and said calmly:
"Now, Xitu is the immortal realm of the two saints in the West. Not to mention me, not even Emperor Xin dares to attack easily."
"Leave him alone... In short, this is an opportunity for our Asura clan. Since the birth of our Asura clan, I have not been fully intelligent and only know how to kill... My ancestor has never been able to figure out the reason."
"It wasn't until Di Xin killed the gods and gradually raised his luck in the world to this level that the ancestor finally understood!"
"What our Asura family lacks is nothing but luck!"
"But over the years, my ancestors have also tried to learn from Emperor Xin's method of improving luck. But in the end, they all failed..."
"My ancestor has taught these idiots the language and writing for several years, but they still can't understand it!"
"They are immortals! They can't even compare to a mortal who has no power to bind a chicken!"
As he spoke, Minghe became furious and slapped away the hundreds of thousands of Asuras in the Netherworld Blood Sea, saying:
"Go and copy the Asura text ten thousand times!"
After Minghe finished speaking, he breathed a deep sigh of relief and said: "Now, the Western Saint has given me the opportunity to be a guardian of the scriptures, the Asura clan! As a guardian of the scriptures, I can take the scriptures from
Get a piece of luck in the world! And these human fortunes will eventually fall on my Asura clan. "
"Once you have luck, you can gradually change the missing mentality of the Asura clan, allowing the Asura clan to find themselves and get rid of the title of a disabled race!"
"It's not even impossible for Pindao to take this opportunity to attain enlightenment and become a saint!"
Styx became more and more excited as he talked. Then he raised his hands and couldn't help shouting. Countless huge waves rose above the sea of blood behind him!
The sound of the Styx made the Asura clan couldn't help but get excited. Only Shiva, who was naturally pessimistic, said:
"Ancestor, our Asura clan is not looked down upon by the gods and gods. They have always discriminated against us. Now they will actually give us a chance to change our destiny?"
Ming He smiled faintly and said: "Nowadays, things are different from the past. At present, the Yuxu Palace is in seclusion, the Supreme Saint is not coming out, Jie Jiao is dedicated to helping the Yin Shang Dynasty, and the two Western Saints want to get their hands on the Eastern Land and defeat Emperor Xin. It is not a simple matter of learning from the experience. Just think of it."
"In these ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties, the competition is not only about the scripture collectors and scripture protectors, but also about the background behind them."
"Behind each of the three scripture collectors, there must be a powerful force."
After finishing speaking, Ming He looked at the crowd and said, "Unfortunately, this time the Guardian must be at the realm of immortals. But none of the immortals of the Asura clan lacks intelligence. Now, there is only one way."
"That is to select one of you to become the guardian of the sutra, and then give up his cultivation, descend to the realm of immortals, and become the guardian of Sakyamuni!"
After Styx finished speaking, he looked sharply at the human world, looking at Sakyamuni who was giving lectures in Yixia Academy.
All the Shura clan members also followed Styx's gaze.
And at this time.
Sakyamuni was wearing a brocade cassock and holding a nine-ringed tin staff. Although he had not eaten for seven days, his body was full of infinite power. He was about to announce to the world that the Buddhist scriptures had begun, until his eyesight went dark.
Then, he fell straight off the podium.
Styx and the Asura clan suddenly froze on the spot.
