After a fierce battle, in the end it was the Tathagata Mahavairocana who carried the general trend and overcame all the opposition in Mahayana Buddhism.
The identity of Tripitaka's Buddhist scripture collector has been determined, and he will enter the six realms of reincarnation in three days and be reincarnated into the human race.
According to the script set by heaven, after the Buddhist scriptures are reincarnated into the human race, they will experience nine consecutive catastrophes.
During these nine lives, those who seek the scriptures will experience all kinds of ups and downs in the world, and eventually die tragically on the way to retrieve the Western Scriptures.
Only in the tenth life can Buddhist scripture seekers achieve complete merits and truly embark on the journey to the West to learn scriptures, and the Journey to the West can be considered as a complete start.
With the support of Jiang Heng and the Great Sun Tathagata, no matter whether he is reincarnated in the six realms of reincarnation or the disaster after becoming a human race, it will not be a big deal.
In the blink of an eye, Sanzang's ninth calamity had passed. When Sanzang's tenth reincarnation was born among the human race, the calamity of Journey to the West also officially began.
At this time, almost five hundred years had passed since Sun Wukong was suppressed under Wuzhishan.
On this day, Jiang Heng and Houtu Zuwu came to Wuzhishan again and saw Sun Wukong who was practicing hard.
"That's right! In less than five hundred years, your fighting skills have improved a lot, but unfortunately, there is still a thin line between you and perfection!"
With Jiang Heng's cultivation, the fighting method was also taught to Sun Wukong by Jiang Heng. Naturally, he could tell Sun Wukong's current state at a glance.
"If it weren't for being suppressed and unable to move under the Five Fingers Mountain, I, the old Sun, would have cultivated the Dou Zhan method to a perfect level long ago!" Sun Wukong said somewhat unconvinced.
Being suppressed under the Five Fingers Mountain, unable to move at all, naturally had a great impact on Sun Wukong's practice of fighting and defeating.
But after hearing this, Jiang Heng shook his head and said: "The core of the battle method lies in the word 'war'.
Even if you are suppressed and unable to move, if you can understand the core of the method of fighting and victory, you may not be able to take the final step.
The reason why you have been unable to break through is because you have hesitated about the future and no longer have the unyielding faith you once had! "
Sun Wukong was stunned for a moment, and his expression turned ugly. The Human Emperor in front of him was right, and there was indeed hesitation in his heart.
Seeing the five-hundred-year deadline getting closer and closer, Sun Wukong knew that he would be able to escape from the predicament soon, and many thoughts inevitably appeared in his mind.
Jiang Heng did not hide anything from Sun Wukong about the calamity in Journey to the West. He naturally knew why he was able to escape.
When he was first suppressed at the foot of Wuzhi Mountain, all Sun Wukong could think about was practicing hard, and then going to overthrow Wuzhi Mountain after he became strong.
When the time comes, there will naturally be grievances and revenge. Whether it is the high heaven or the Great Sun Tathagata, Sun Wukong will not let anyone go.
But from Jiang Heng's words, Sun Wukong truly understood that being suppressed under Wuzhi Mountain was far from what it seemed.
Not only does it involve the invincible saint, but also the supreme Heavenly Dao, which controls all the rules of the prehistoric world.
So what if it's a great accomplishment? Can he still be the opponent of the saint? It is impossible to escape the control of heaven.
This worry in my heart becomes more and more obvious as the five-hundred-year seal period gets closer and closer.
What to do after you get out of trouble? To overthrow the powerful men who once oppressed him and become his own Monkey King again?
But Sun Wukong asked himself, even if he could defeat the Great Sun Tathagata and those incarnations of saints, how could he fight against the saints coming in person?
Moreover, how could Hongjun, the supreme leader of Tiandao and Taoism, sit back and watch as he escaped from his control and prevented the normal progress of Journey to the West?
Or do you choose to compromise, like what the human emperor in front of you said, worship the Buddhist scriptures as your teacher, go to the West to learn scriptures honestly, and make the journey to the west complete the calamity?
But if he compromises, will Sun Wukong still be the unruly Monkey King? Is he still the Sun Wukong who dares to cause trouble in heaven?
"You are right, I, Sun, hesitated. I wanted to overthrow this world, but found that I did not have the ability!" Sun Wukong sighed.
In Jiang Heng's view, this is what growth requires. Like a newborn calf, it is not afraid of heaven or earth, and regards the heroes of the world as if they were nothing.
Just like Sun Wukong back then, he was so high-spirited. Heaven and saints were nothing in his eyes.
However, after experiencing the cruel temper of the world, when you realize that you are not omnipotent, you can only slowly curb your edge.
Either choose to compromise, or choose to act crazy and act stupid, hide all the sharp edges in your body, and actively cater to this cruel world.
"The most basic rule in ancient times is that the weak eat the strong. Before there is absolute strength, compromise becomes the only option.
But compromising does not mean forgetting your original intention. Only by staying true to your original intention can you remain committed. Also, some things can be compromised, but some cannot.
If you can have such doubts, you have grown up. If you can overcome this level, your future will be limitless! Jiang Heng said with a smile.
Sun Wukong was silent. Everyone knew the truth, but it was extremely difficult to actually do it.
For Sun Wukong now, compromise is the only option, but if he forgets his original intention, Sun Wukong will be almost destroyed.
Putting away all your sharpness is not to become a coward. But to one day be able to truly control one's own destiny.
"I understand, thank you so much for the advice from the Human Emperor. The Human Emperor is here not just to give advice to me!" Sun Wukong thought for a moment and said.
Only he himself knows whether Sun Wukong has figured it out. Every creature has its own choice, and Jiang Heng doesn't want to interfere too much.
"The scripture seeker has been born, and he has some friendship with me. I just happened to meet him here. I would like to give you a few words by the way!" Jiang Heng said with a smile.
Wuzhishan will be Tang Sanzang's first stop. Whether he can conquer Sun Wukong will be crucial to the entire journey to the west.
In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, both the Great Sun Tathagata and the two saints of the Western religion are probably already planning secretly.
Jiang Heng came to Wuzhishan this time not only to meet Tang Sanzang, but also to fulfill his promise of giving him a chance in his previous life.
At the same time, Jiang Heng also wanted to take a closer look at what kind of plans the two Western saints had secretly.
At the same time, among Mahayana Buddhism, after a fierce battle, it was finally decided that Guanyin Bodhisattva would guide Tang Sanzang on his journey to the West to obtain scriptures.
Today's Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva is Cihang Zhenren who once taught the Twelve Golden Immortals, and has now become one of the four major Bodhisattvas of Mahayana Buddhism.
Among the disciples of Western religions, Guanyin Bodhisattva has a lofty status, second only to the Buddha, Maitreya and the Medicine Master.
Even in Mahayana Buddhism, in addition to several Buddhas such as Mahavairocana, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva also occupies an extremely important position.
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva guides Tang Sanzang. This is an opportunity that Western religions have finally won. Naturally, it is impossible to target it without aim.
But it was said that after receiving the decree, Guanshiyin Bodhisattva traveled eastward and soon came to the human race in Zhanzhou in the south.
After the emergence of the three realms of heaven, earth and man, in the earth and immortal world, the human race was mainly distributed in Zhanzhou and Dongsheng Shenzhou in the south.
Among the four major states, Beiju Luzhou is a bitter cold land with extremely harsh environment, and only the demon tribe lives in it.
Xiniu Hezhou is the territory of the Western religion. There are numerous Buddhist kingdoms, large and small, and numerous living beings live among them.
Xiniu Hezhou has become a barren land after the battle between Taoist Ancestor Hongjun and Demon Ancestor Luohu.
Precisely because the vitality of heaven and earth is too thin, Xiniu Hezhou is nothing more than worthless to the human race, but Jiang Heng deliberately ignored Xiniu Hezhou.
It's not that Jiang Heng is afraid of anything because this is the territory of the Western Sect. Jiang Heng did this for the sake of the billions of living beings living in Xiniu Hezhou.
In the prehistoric world, although the human race is now the protagonist of the world, there are still countless creatures living in this world.
No matter how powerful the human race is, it cannot deprive other living beings of their right to survive. It must always give other living beings a chance of survival.
Although Xiniu Hezhou and Beiju Luzhou are both barren lands, they are enough for countless creatures to thrive in them.
Of course, if you want to live a good life, that's not impossible. As long as you surrender to the human race, you will naturally be able to connect with the destiny of the human race.
Look at the current Dragon Clan and Phoenix Clan. After they returned to the human race, they have continued to grow and develop.
Among these four major continents, only Dongsheng Shenzhou and Nanzhanzhou have outstanding people and abundant vitality. They are the most suitable places for human race to survive.
Among them, Zhanzhou in the south is the origin of the human race. Not only does the Kyushu barrier exist here, it is also the most elite part of the human race.
In today's southern Zhanzhou, the human race has continuously experienced the rise and fall of dynasties, and has once again become a unified dynasty, the Tang Dynasty.
The Tang Dynasty is now at its peak, and the Human Emperor who is currently in power is also a man of great talent and strategy, and is an unparalleled lord of the human race.
After Guanshiyin Bodhisattva came to the Tang Dynasty, he did not dare to show any slightness, but took the lead in visiting the current emperor.
Because of Jiang Heng, the human race today is still at its peak, although the Human Emperor may not necessarily have great strength.
But the Human Emperor is the Human Emperor, and the human race has immeasurable luck. Even if it is seen by the incarnation of a saint, it must be treated as an equal.
If a mere Guanyin Bodhisattva dares to act recklessly among the human race, he may die without knowing how.
Only by first visiting the Human Emperor and obtaining permission from the contemporary Human Emperor can Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva travel to the West among the human race to obtain scriptures.
Fortunately, Jiang Heng had already given instructions for this matter in advance, and Nezha and Kong Xuan went to inform the current emperor.
After obtaining the permission of the contemporary emperor, Guanshiyin Bodhisattva found the reincarnation of the Buddhist monk, Tang Sanzang, the eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty.
But among today's human race, although Mahayana Buddhism has spread, it is not welcomed by the human race at all, and there are even fewer human races who believe in Buddhism.
Under the arrangement of Guanyin Bodhisattva, Tang Sanzang soon embarked on the journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures in order to promote Buddhism.
