"The Buddhist sect is so powerful, those Taoist sects shouldn't let them succeed, right?"
Although Zhang Liang comes from Confucianism, he doesn't know much about the water in the immortal world of the prehistoric land, not as good as the Zhenzhen Fire Cloud Cave.
He didn't know much about Buddhism, so he was surprised by its strength.
But as a top smart person in the human race, he soon understood that if the Buddhist sect was so powerful, the Taoist sect was definitely not bad.
The Buddhist sect had been trapped in Lingshan before, and it was obviously suppressed by the Taoist sect. Now that the Buddhist sect is extending its hand, how can the Taoist sect be willing?
There was no room for someone else to sleep soundly on the side of the bed, let alone that person who had already come to eat from their bowl.
In terms of luck, Zhang Liang now knows a lot about it.
In addition to Jiuzhou, Nanzhan Continent consists of major sects, and those sects are also controlled by the Taoist sect. This is the traditional sphere of influence of the Taoist sect. How can other people be allowed to come over and compete with them.
The stronger the Buddhist sect becomes, the less willing the Taoist sect will be.
"There are still constant disputes within the Taoist sect. Without concerted efforts, it is impossible to stop the Buddhist sect from crossing eastward."
Su Fan shook his head. No matter in history or in the mythical plane, Taoism did not prevent Buddhism from succeeding in the end.
Historically, Buddhism eventually became one of the representatives of religions, even surpassing Taoism for a long time.
Buddhism's ability to bewitch is no worse than that of Taoism. Of course, Taoism's ability to bewitch is not bad at the beginning either.
Whether it was the Yellow Turban Uprising at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty or the Sun En Uprising during the Eastern Jin Dynasty, it can be said that these were all instigated rebellions by the Taoist sect.
It is also because of these that the government is wary of Taoism.
And Buddhism took the opportunity to take its place.
However, Buddhism has also suffered heavy losses, such as the three martial arts that destroyed the Buddha.
In the world of mythology, Buddhism is stronger, with top experts and super bewitching abilities.
Su Fan could think about it, Nanzhan Buzhou would definitely be very lively in the future.
Of course, the arrival of the Nanzhan Buzhou Buddhist Sect will definitely cause riots, and the Taoist Sect will not easily let the Buddhist Sect get their wish.
Journey to the West Buddhism flourished, which Taoism could not stop.
But now the Buddhists want to cross eastward and preach in Nanzhanbuzhou, which is not that easy. The Taoists are not fools and they know the face of the Buddhists very well.
If Buddhism is really allowed to gain a foothold in Nanzhan Buzhou, it will be even more difficult to drive them away in the future.
They must have tried their best to stop it.
By then, I'm afraid there will inevitably be fights or even wars.
A large-scale war may not happen. The two sides are not fools. When the strength is almost the same, a deadly battle will only hurt both sides and let others take advantage.
Today's immortal world is full of demons. After entering the sageless era, all parties have come out.
The Taoist Sect, the Buddhist Sect, the Heavenly Court and the Fire Cloud Cave are considered to be the four strongest forces in the Earthly Immortal World. Among these four major forces, they are also divided into many small forces.
In addition, there are also many forces in the Earthly Immortal World, such as the Demon Clan, the Witch Clan, the Rakshasa Clan, etc. Although the strength of these forces is not as strong as the four major forces, they are not much different.
Especially for the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Although they have been fighting since ancient times, both sides have suffered losses.
But the remaining power is still very powerful.
The remaining power of the demon clan, among the quasi-sages alone, is probably no less than two or three, the demon master Kunpeng, and the last son of Emperor Jun.
In addition, there may be demon gods who survived. Some of the top ten demon gods in the demon court back then were quasi-sages in strength.
Although almost all of them died in the battle, there are still a few who survived. After so many years, maybe some demon gods have broken through to the level of quasi-sage.
As for the Witch Clan, not to mention others, the Houtu Empress alone is feared by all forces. She is comparable to a saint. Although she has spoken of the underworld, her strength may be reduced.
But it’s not comparable to a quasi-sage.
Moreover, in addition to the Houtu Empress, the witch clan also has an ancestral witch, plus some great witches. In terms of strength, they are not much weaker than the four major forces.
Buddhism will probably not fight to the death with Taoism. Taoism wants to stop Buddhism from preaching, but it cannot always do so.
The Taoist sect is internally uneven and cannot be unified.
Su Fan also had a general understanding of the situation in the Earthly Immortal Realm, and knew that all parties were now exercising restraint.
After all, no one wants a war to break out.
Look at the previous calamities, how tragic they were. The recent Battle of the Gods has shattered the whole world.
As for the dead and injured cultivators, if there is no list of gods, then there are really many dead Daluo Jinxian.
As for the Lich's calamity, it's even more terrifying.
I don’t know how many Daluo Jinxian died, even dozens of quasi-sages died.
Especially the Donghuang, who has almost reached the level of a saint. Such calamity is really terrible.
No one wants to be next.
When you measure the calamity in Journey to the West, you can see that although it is a calamity, in fact, there is not much damage at all.
The only ones who died were little monsters with no background.
As for the havoc in the Heavenly Palace at the beginning of Journey to the West, that was considered a joke. Although the monkeys caused great harm, in fact, they only damaged some buildings in the Heavenly Palace.
The most casualties in Heaven were a small number of Heavenly soldiers.
Of course, many of the monkeys in Huaguo Mountain did die in the end.
But most of those monkeys are barely monsters.
Obviously, neither Taoism nor Buddhism hopes or wants to expand the catastrophe of Buddhism's great rise.
Otherwise, in the Saintless Era, it is not impossible for Taoism to really stop the journey to the west.
Most of them are fighting against Buddhism and preventing Buddhism from flourishing.
Although Buddhism is powerful, if Taoism is really willing to work together, Buddhism has no chance at all.
Although there are not many quasi-sages from Renjiao and Chanjiao, don't forget, they only know the second generation disciples.
There are really powerful Taoists like Zhen Yuanzi, and there are many more. These people are also powerful Taoists. If they are willing to work together, there really is not much possibility for Buddhism.
Theoretically, the Second Sage of the West could be considered a Taoist sect at that time, but later he defected and became the master of eight hundred side sects.
The advantage is that becoming the master of the side sect is similar to being the Taoist ancestor. However, the Tao sect is not comparable to the side sect.
The Taoist ancestors preached about the prehistoric times and gathered their luck, which made him a saint. Although the two saints in the West are also saints.
But there is also a gap between saints and saints, and the gap is very big.
The gap between Taoist ancestors and the Six Saints is almost equivalent to the gap between saints and quasi-sages.
Among the three thousand Zixiao guests, not many are really willing to join the heresy, although not many of the former Zixiao guests survived.
But even if there are only a few who have survived to the present level, they are not ordinary Da Luo Jinxian.
Either a quasi-sage or a top-notch Da Luo Jinxian.
The overall strength of Taoism is not comparable to that of Buddhism. (End of chapter)
