Chapter 99 The Establishment of Buddhism! The Primordial Celestial Venerable, filled with regret!
Rumble!
The Pangu Banner is one of the three great treasures of creation, formed from the broken blade of the divine axe that created the heavens. Now, it is being used by the Primordial Heavenly Lord in anger, and its power is terrifying.
Before it even struck, it had already cleaved a terrifying crack in the chaotic starry sky spanning hundreds of millions of miles, causing Zhunti's expression to change repeatedly.
"Brother Yuanshi, please calm down!"
"How about this, senior brother, repay a karmic debt I owe in the West?"
Upon hearing this, Yuanshi Tianzun was taken aback.
In order for his disciples to successfully overcome the tribulation, he disregarded the rift between his brothers and invited Zhunti and Jieyin to break the Zhuxian Sword Formation together.
Besides offering two top-grade innate spiritual treasures, he also owed the two Western Saints a favor and a karmic debt.
Now that Zhunti has brought up this matter, he naturally understands that he probably won't be able to pursue those traitors this time.
The Pangu Banner transformed from a slash into a whip, its surface containing fierce power. It lashed down fiercely at Zhunti, pinning him to the primordial starry sky and giving him a severe beating.
"roll!"
Seeing Zhunti's bruised and swollen face, Yuanshi Tianzun was furious, but a trace of regret instinctively surfaced in his heart.
He had planned so much, even risking a break with Tongtian, but who would have thought that what he got in return were these wicked creatures.
If he had known earlier, there might have been room for maneuver in this great calamity. But now, he is confined to this primordial starry sky, and the Three Pure Ones are gone. It's too late to say anything now.
Upon hearing this, Zhunti ran away in a flash, without even uttering a harsh word.
This is clearly an experience gained from being beaten up.
In situations like this, the harsher your words, the harder you'll get beaten.
Besides, since we've already benefited, getting beaten up is just losing some noodles, it's nothing.
As long as it can revitalize the Western religion and fulfill the grand vows made, he and his senior brother would be willing to die for it.
After a few beatings, he was able to fulfill his grand vow. Zhunti said he could do it a few more times.
With Zhunti gone, Yuanshi Tianzun could only rage in vain.
The more joy they felt when they invited Zhunti to help, the more regret they feel now.
While Yuanshi Tianzun was in great distress, Taishang was not faring much better.
When the sage made his move, the entire starry sky trembled, and Taiqing naturally sensed it as well.
At this moment, he also felt quite regretful.
The karmic debt owed by Yuanshi Tianzun has now been settled.
However, the karmic debt he promised to the two Western Saints has not yet been resolved.
Judging from the actions of Zhunti and Jieyin, they have grand ambitions for this great calamity, and they may well give themselves a big surprise at some point.
Leaving aside the primordial beginning and the Supreme Being at this time, here we doubt the birth of the sage.
After receiving a severe beating, Zhunti returned to Mount Sumeru with a satisfied smile and began plotting this great calamity with Jieyin.
In this great calamity, among the four sects, the Jie Sect lost more than half of its disciples, and the Tongtian Sect Leader was imprisoned in the Zixiao Palace. Without a sage, the major sects naturally posed no threat.
Within the Chan Sect, there are only a handful of people, big and small, besides Guang Chengzi who made the list, and the four Yuxu disciples who betrayed the sect.
Of the twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, only seven remain now, and all of them are in a half-crippled state, having had their three flowers on top of their heads removed.
The Supreme Lord of the Human Sect lost a benevolent corpse and sat in the Heavenly Court. Similarly, the Sage of Taiqing sat in the Chaotic Starry Sky.
Only the Western Sect has preserved its strength intact. Not only did they not consume the Fallen Saint Pill, but they also caused the Supreme Primordial Beginning to incur enormous karmic debts.
Even if a disciple betrays the sect, they can only swallow their anger and resentment.
It is no exaggeration to say that in this great calamity, the Western religion will flourish, and there will be no further obstacles.
However, at this time, Zhunti Jieyin faced new troubles.
That is, they want to monopolize the fortune of the Western Religion's rise without sharing it with the other three religions.
When the Dao Ancestor Hongjun preached in Zixiao Palace, he established the Xuanmen (Mysterious Gate) and further divided it into the four religions of the West: Chan, Jie, Ren, and Xi.
The four religions are all interconnected and belong to the framework of the Xuanmen (Taoist school). Their fortunes also circulate within the Xuanmen, which is why the Three Pure Ones had to announce their separation to the Heavenly Dao.
If the Western religion flourishes, the other three religions will naturally share in the benefits of its fortune, which is even more unbearable than killing Zhunti and Jieyin.
"Brother Jieyin, the great prosperity of the West this time is a foregone conclusion."
The Xuanmen is a unified entity, and we, like the Three Pure Ones, are all disciples of the Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
If the Western religion flourishes, the three religions of Chan, Jie, and Ren will simply claim a share of the fortune and benefits!
Zhunti spoke up, saying that since the Western Sect was finally about to turn the tide, he naturally didn't want to share any of the benefits with the three Eastern sects.
"The moon waxes and wanes, and the tide rises and falls; once this is set, it is difficult to change!"
We, the disciples of the Xuanmen, are one, and this is the will of Heaven!
The guide's features were all scrunched up, seemingly resisting the idea of sharing his fortune with the other three religions.
"The Xuanmen (mysterious sect) is one..."
Upon hearing Jieyin's words, Zhunti seemed to have thought of something and was taken aback.
Immediately, his eyes lit up, and he suddenly said, "In that case, why don't we in the West abandon the Xuanmen and establish the Shamen, taking the meaning of the sands of the Ganges, and establish another religion!"
Although the Tao has two paths, its principle is one!
"Our Western religion is naturally within the Xuanmen (Taoist school), but the most flourishing religion is within the Shamen (Buddhist school). The Dao Ancestor will not blame us!"
The complexity of what Zhunti said is actually an imitation of the Taoist patriarch Xuanmen, who created the Buddhist sect and then established a new religion within the Buddhist sect.
Thus, the rise of Protestantism naturally had nothing to do with the three major religions of the East.
"Um?"
The wrinkles on Jieyin's face relaxed at this moment.
"The Dao Ancestor Hongjun has merged with the Heavenly Dao. His major influence remains unchanged, and he will not exert any minor influence!"
We are not betraying the Xuanjiao Sect; it's just that our Western Sect is impoverished, and cultivation is difficult. We are simply expounding the profound principles of the Great Dao elsewhere!
Zhunti continued, saying that as long as it wasn't an open provocation of the Dao Ancestor, the Dao Ancestor naturally wouldn't concern himself with such matters.
"Since that's the case, then let's do as you say, Junior Brother!"
Following the advice of the two Western Saints, while they were discussing matters, Dipankara Buddha brought Samantabhadra and the other three to pay their respects.
Zhunti smiled and exchanged a meaningful glance with Jieyin, then said, "Senior brother, now that everyone is here, let's begin!"
Upon hearing this, Dipankara and the other three were completely bewildered.
Start?
What should we start?
Should I help them restore their cultivation? Or should I take them as my personal disciples?
But..........
Before the five disciples, including Ran Deng, could ponder further, Zhun Ti had already sat cross-legged, holding a flower and smiling, revealing the divine form of a supreme sage, and directly began to proclaim the Heavenly Dao:
"Heaven's will is above. Today, I will transform into a monk, follow the will of Heaven, and establish Buddhism. I am the Cundi Buddhist School! I will guide you to Amitabha Buddha!"
Heaven will bear witness!
As soon as Zhunti finished speaking, Mount Sumeru, which was originally radiant with celestial light, was suddenly bathed in boundless Buddhist light, and countless Western Buddhist disciples chanted "Amitabha!" in unison.
Upon witnessing this scene, Randeng, Puxian, and the other three, who had been full of anticipation, were stunned and completely dumbfounded.
Heavenly Bodhisattva!
We just betrayed our religion, and now we're not even disciples of the Xuanmen sect anymore, but have become disciples of the Buddhist sect?
Others may not know how serious this matter is, but Randeng, one of the three thousand guests of Zixiao, understands it perfectly.
