world.
All over Kyushu.
From the bottom of the sea, an immeasurable golden light shines through, making the surrounding sea area become splendid.
In the golden underwater world, there are practitioners who look like Tao but not Tao, and look like monks but not monks.
They have dragon heads and bodies, sitting cross-legged on the coral throne, with their hands clasped together and silently chanting sutras.
Scriptures were spat out from their mouths, and in the eyes of the sea that suppressed them, golden lotuses filled with the aura of the dragons scattered everywhere, rising in the sea, suppressing the turbulent waves.
Every time they chant a sutra, a stream of Buddhist luck comes from the west.
The reason why Buddhism's luck fluctuates is because of this.
At this moment, all the gods and gods had an idea in their hearts.
Buddhism originally wanted to take away the luck of the human world by obtaining sutras and overcoming difficulties, but now not only has it not been taken away, but it has been given to Buddhism.
This is not about learning Buddhist scriptures, but sending Buddhist scriptures to others.
However, they knew that the reason for this change was that the person playing chess in Buddhism was Di Xin, not others.
If the opponent of the Second Saint of the West had been another saint, it is very likely that he would have survived this disaster.
"Just by passing the first difficulty, Emperor Xin unified the whole world. If Buddhism was allowed to pass the ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties, wouldn't the entire prehistoric world become something in Emperor Xin's pocket?"
"Bold, your words are mocking the Western saints!"
The gods and gods were talking a lot, and their moods were extremely complicated.
From the first calamity of the Long Han Dynasty to the present, Wuliang Sihai's status in the prehistoric world has been very humble.
Back when the lich was measuring calamity and the two clans were fighting for hegemony, it was just the demons controlling the heavens and the witches controlling the earth. Even the countless witches and monsters from all over the world looked down upon them.
The Dragon Clan is not only eaten by the Witch Clan, but also by the Demon Clan.
During that time, the Dragon Clan was not only food, but also thugs on call. Anyone in the heavens and gods could bully them. Like the descendants of the Phoenix and Qilin Clan, they were the favorite race for the saints to capture as mounts.
The gods and gods did not expect that the four seas, which were filled with disasters, would be unified by the human race, which had only been around for a thousand years.
Total unity.
All the calamities have been averted.
"The first difficulty of Journey to the West should be over."
"Buddhist scripture seekers are still in the ghost city of the world. How can this tribulation end?"
"This... Di Xin said that as long as the catastrophe of Long Han's first calamity is overturned, the Buddhist scripture seekers will be released. Now, the Dragon Clan has overturned it on its own, doesn't it count?"
"Abandoning the First Tribulation of Long Han is the price that Buddhism needs to pay to overcome this difficulty. Now, this difficulty is gone. It's time for the two saints in the West to be in trouble. If they don't pay the same price, how can Di Xin let him go so easily?"
While the gods and gods were discussing, they heard Zhunti's voice coming from the Western Paradise.
"Di Xin, I originally wanted the eight heavenly dragons to break this dragon clan's calamity, but I didn't expect them to be suppressed by you. The poor monk is merciful and won't argue with you about this matter. But you have something to say first, should we, the Buddhist scripture seekers, be punished? Release the soul?"
Zi Shou stood on the boundless four seas, feeling the luck of the dragons in the four seas. He slowly opened his eyes and looked at the Western Paradise, and said calmly:
"I really didn't hear you clearly. What did you say? Say it again?"
Zhunti:......
His just calm state of mind was shattered again, and he suppressed his anger and said: "Di Xin, now that Long Han's first calamity has been over, is it time to release Sakyamuni?"
"This difficult time, the poor monk must admit defeat!"
Zishou chuckled and said: "Zhunti, what are you dreaming about? Only if Buddhism breaks the remaining catastrophes of the Long Han Dynasty, will I let the sutra collectors return to their places. It is not the Eight Heavenly Dragons who have broken the catastrophe now. , but the Dragon King of the Four Seas. What the Dragon King does has nothing to do with your Buddhism?"
Hearing this, Zhunti said in a deep voice: "Di Xin, don't use forceful arguments. In any case, the calamity of Long Han's first calamity has disappeared now! Even if the poor monk wants to take action, there is nothing he can do."
Zi Shou glanced at the steaming fortunes of the four seas, felt the faint call coming from the depths of the four seas, and said calmly:
"Zhunti, to untie the bell, you must tie the bell. This difficulty has nothing to do with me and the human world, but is the condition for the Dragon King of the Four Seas to agree to return to the human world. I have already given the cause and effect of this first difficulty to the Dragon King of the Four Seas .”
"They have full authority over this difficult arrangement."
"Now that the first difficulty they set has been overcome by themselves, of course they have to ask themselves what to do next."
Zi Shou looked at the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas, smiled and said, "Four Dragon Kings, are you really right?"
The four dragon kings were stunned for a moment, and then they suddenly understood, calmed their expressions, nodded heavily, and said: "What the king said makes sense!"
Zhunti's face turned livid when he heard this.
Although he had already expected that Di Xin would interfere with it and make things difficult again, he did not expect that Di Xin would speak so righteously about making things difficult for him, leaving him with no reason to refute.
This difficulty is clearly a petition for the Dragon King of the Three Seas. What are the conditions!
Your Emperor Xin’s carefree character is known to all the three worlds!
The Dragon King of the Three Seas wants to return to the human world. If he doesn't show his loyalty, then he dares to ask for conditions?
If they dare to raise conditions, they are afraid that the Three Seas will have been bulldozed by you.
However, Ren Zhunti was dissatisfied in many ways, but Di Xin held the handle.
Learning from scriptures is different from worshiping gods.
After all, in the Battle of the Gods, the most important thing is the righteous gods listed on the 365th road.
Even one of them is more important than Jiang Ziya, a chess piece that is destined not to be on the list.
On the way to seek scriptures, the pilgrims bear 30% of the luck of the journey to the West. Once something goes wrong, the impact will be great.
A pair of indifferent eyes on his Buddhist golden body looked at the human world and said: "Dragon King of the Four Seas, I ask you this poor monk. These ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties have been solved by yourselves. How should the disciples of the scriptures deal with themselves?"
After he finished speaking, the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas all looked at Di Xin.
This scene made Zhun raise his eyebrows furiously.
Di Xin!
You still pretended to ask me to ask the Dragon King!
When Zishou saw the Dragon King's gaze, he couldn't help but laugh, nodded, and said with a smile: "I understand."
Then, he looked at the Great Leiyin Temple in Lingshan, and said calmly: "The four dragon kings said that this difficulty needs to be retrieved by Buddhist scripture collectors for the dragon clan; the dragon clan's most precious treasure, the Dragon Pool. If it cannot be retrieved, this difficulty will only be solved. I’m afraid you’ll never be able to pass through Buddhism.”
After Zi Shou finished speaking, the figure of the Dragon King of the Four Seas suddenly froze in place. The winding dragon body was fixed on the sky, and his eyes were full of shock.
Wha, what?
Hualong Pond!
!
Originally, Zi Shou told them that they could let Buddhism help them break through the catastrophe of Long Han's first calamity.
Therefore, although they voluntarily gave up reincarnation, they still had doubts about it.
Only now did they know that the king had other plans.
hiss……
Compared with Hualong Pond, a mere one generation of reincarnation, or even two generations of reincarnation, is nothing!
The human race only gives birth to one child, but they dare to jump from mountains to fill the sea, and boast that there will be endless children and grandchildren!
Their dragon race is the most proficient race in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!
After the dragon tribe hatches from the dragon egg, it only takes a hundred years for the dragon tribe to reproduce with the Sihai tribe again.
The third generation has only been around for a hundred years.
Billions of years have passed, so what does a hundred years mean? ?
If this difficulty can make Buddhism hand over the Hualong Pond, they will be willing to give up the reincarnation of four, five or even ten generations!
They would not hesitate at all to exchange their millennium of life for a chance to take off!
But...will Buddhism agree?
The Eight Treasures Merit Transformation Dragon Pond is a Buddhist treasure that the two sages of Buddhism spent a lot of effort to create!
It was one of the magic weapons used by Western religions to suppress luck.
If there is no Eight Treasures Merit Transforming Dragon Pond, I am afraid that the fortune of Buddhism will be further diverted by the Zen sect founded by the king.
The Dragon King of the Four Seas recovered from the shock, closed his long dragon mouth, and narrowed his dragon eyes to look at Xi Tu.
really.
Zhunti's furious voice then came from the Paradise. The voice sounded like a volcano erupting, and the monstrous anger made all the gods and gods tremble.
Ever since Tongtian went up to Mount Sumeru with his sword and killed him, the two saints in the West had never been so angry.
Elysium.
Zhunti's Buddhist golden body pressed across thousands of miles. Under the lotus throne, mountains collapsed and the ground cracked, and flames erupted!
He said angrily:
"Di Xin, do you know what you are talking about?"
"Let the poor monk return the Buddhist treasure to the Dragon Clan?"
"How can you be so messy in these ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties??"
"Not to mention how much effort this treasure has cost my Buddhist family, nor how much cause and effect the eight treasures' merits and virtues have on the Dragon Transformation Pond and the ancient Dragon Transformation Pond... The poor monk gave this treasure to the Dragon Clan, can they hold it down? ?”
Hearing this, Zi Shou ignored him and said calmly: "Now that the dragon clan has returned to the human world, the dragon clan's greatest treasure is the human clan's greatest treasure. Zhunti, do you think I can't suppress it?"
Zhunti:......
He was immediately speechless, his old face twitched, and after a long time he gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and said: "Emperor Xin, don't be quick to talk. This is absolutely impossible! The Eight Treasures Merit Transformation Dragon Pond is my Buddhist door. The key to prosperity, even the eight heavenly dragons cannot compare with it. It is just the first of ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties, how could I give up my most precious Buddhist treasure?"
The Dragon Kings of the Four Seas looked at each other and sighed in their hearts.
It was just as they expected...
The eight treasures of merit and virtue transform into dragon ponds are too important to the West. How could the two sages of the West give up this treasure?
They sighed in their hearts, but secretly observed Di Xin's expression, finding that his face was expressionless and still extremely calm.
The Dragon King of the Four Seas lowered his head and said nothing, feeling an inexplicable sense of confidence in his heart.
Since the king has said it, he will definitely do it.
Zishou shook his head, sneered, and said, "Zhunti, you brought up this matter of studying scriptures and seeking Taoism. Didn't you deduce the current situation in advance?"
"Nine-nine and eighty-one difficulties, each difficulty is not just as simple as the first difficulty. Each difficulty may be the last difficulty. Because the team seeking scriptures may be buried here."
"Do you understand it?"
"The way to learn the scriptures is not to find a way to overcome these ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties, but to find a ninety-nine and eighty-one ways to redeem your team of Buddhist scriptures."
"Now the guardian of the scriptures has not returned to his position, I only have Sakyamuni alone. When the team for the next difficulty is reunited, four treasures will be brought to me for each difficulty in the future."
After Zi Shou finished speaking, there was silence for nine days and ten places.
They were speechless and didn't know what to say.
They knew that Di Xin had always been domineering, but they didn't expect him to be so domineering.
At this moment, all the gods and gods had only one thought in their minds.
This is not about learning from scriptures. It is clearly the two sages from the West who took the initiative to send treasures to the world.
At this time, when they looked at Sakyamuni's soul, they felt more and more like a boy delivering treasures.
"I can't believe it...I can't believe it...these two bald donkeys in the West, instead of continuing to hide and be cowardly turtles, they actually came to the world to make trouble."
"How inflated is this for them to make such a stupid decision?"
In the wilderness, a mosquito and a golden cicada were lying on a willow tree that was about to mature, sucking the sap of the willow tree.
Jin Chan said while shaking his head while sucking.
Taoist Mosquito spat and said, "Bah, the smell of the spiritual roots of heaven and earth is far worse now than it was in ancient times."
He said with disgust: "Hmph, do you think the Second Saint of the West is as stable as Tao Ancestor? No, they are just timid, but they are not stable."
"For a long time, with the saints of the heavens around, they have not dared to be too presumptuous. While they hide their strength, they are also suppressing their desires and the desire to complete their great ambitions."
"Daozu knew that he was no match for Demon Ancestor, yet he dared to fight with him. In the end, the Demon Ancestor was eliminated."
"These two people in the West didn't dare to reveal their ambitions until the saint returned to seclusion and Yuxu Palace declined."
"They are just heavenly saints, not real saints."
Jin Chanzi sighed, shook his head, and said: "Originally, Pindao was full of expectations for the journey to the west, thinking that there would be wonderful scenes. Unexpectedly, even the Buddhist sect could not pass the first difficulty."
"Shi Sanzang, Shi Sanzang, you are such a disgrace."
"If you were a poor Taoist, you would definitely be able to pass through these ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties."
Taoist Mosquito looked at his close friend in surprise when he heard this, and said strangely: "Jin Chan, haven't you always had a good impression of Di Xin, why are you suddenly on the side of Buddhism?"
Jin Chanzi glanced at him, shook his head, and snorted coldly: "The two sages of the West have been holding me captive for hundreds of millions of years. I wish I could flatten Lingshan Mountain and destroy all the Buddhas. How could I stand with Buddhism? This poor Taoist is just a traitor." Strange feeling... I always feel that there is some kind of cause and effect between this journey to the west and Pindao."
"But Pindao can't deduce it no matter what."
Jin Chanzi shook his head helplessly, glanced at Taoist Mosquito, and said, "Why did you start scolding Lingshan Road when you didn't always want to stand in the way of Di Xin's pursuit of enlightenment?"
The mosquito Taoist snorted: "Who knew that the scripture seeker was actually a waste! Even before Di Xin started to lay out the plan to seek Taoism, he started sending treasures to the world."
Jin Chanzi chuckled and said: "The first difficulty, I'm afraid the dust will settle soon. When the scripture collection team gathers, it will be the time when Emperor Xin goes to the Western Land to select the seekers. Compared with Sakyamuni, Pindao has this problem The Western natives who Emperor Xin likes are more interested."
After finishing speaking, Jin Chan looked at Taoist Mosquito with a half-smile and said: "The person Di Xin likes will not be that simple. When the time comes, your black-striped clone, which you managed to raise with great difficulty, will be taken away again."
After the mosquito Taoist inserted his sharp mouth into the willow spirit root, his spiritual thoughts came out: "Humph, the poor Taoist is not so stupid! The poor Taoist will not block their way, do not follow their way, and just let them day and night Never had a good night!”
"Pindao collected thousands of non-lethal poisons in the Great Miasma Land!"
After saying that, he looked towards the west and said with a smile: "I don't know how to choose between the Eight Treasures Merit Transformation Dragon Pond and the scripture collector."
