The Founding of the Buddhist Sect
On the other side, Yuanshi Tianzun, Jieyin, and Zhunti were stunned as they watched Tongtian turn and leave without any hesitation.
This was completely different from what they had imagined.
In their imagination, given Tongtian's explosive temper, when he learned that they were going to take away Daoist Duobao and many Jie Sect Disciples...
It's possible that they would become enraged on the spot, attack them, or even recall the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords that suppressed the Sage Heart Demons within the Chaos.
But Tongtian's decisive departure was something they had never expected.
"Has Tongtian suddenly changed his mind?"
Looking at the empty sea Zhunti him, Zhunti couldn't help but ask.
Jieyin, standing to the side, pondered for a moment and tentatively asked, "Could it be that Tongtian foresaw the current outcome because he had seen the Heavenly Secrets set by his master, and therefore couldn't be bothered to stop it?"
It must be said that Jieyin's words directly revealed the truth.
Since Tongtian did not stop Daoist Duobao and his disciples, including Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal, from going to the Western Paradise to establish Buddhist Sect,
The Jieyin and Zhunti and the Primordial One separated on the spot.
Jieyin and Zhunti, along with Duobao and many Jie Sect Disciples, went directly to the Western Paradise. On the spot, they made a grand vow to establish Buddhist Sect and entrusted the entire Buddhist Sect order to Duobao.
In an instant, all the powerful beings in the Primordial World were alarmed.
They were filled with curiosity as to why the chief disciple of the Interception Sect would become the Tathagata of Duobao Tathagata in the Western Buddhist Sect.
But then, something even stranger happened to the many powerful beings of the Primordial World.
Among the Chan Sect Disciple, quite a few suddenly went to the Western Buddhist Sect.
These disciples were led by Randeng, the vice leader of the Chan Sect, and included figures such as True Person Cihang and Manjushri Zhenren.
What surprised many powerful figures in the Primordial World was that after Randeng, the vice leader of the Chan Sect, went to the Buddhist Sect, he directly became the second Buddha of the Buddhist Sect.
Randeng Past Buddha!
True Person Cihang and Manjushri Zhenren directly occupied two of the four great bodhisattvas, becoming Guanyin Bodhisattva and Manjushri Bodhisattva.
This sudden change caused the name of the Buddhist Sect in the Primordial World to change instantly.
Many powerful beings from the Primordial World couldn't help but speculate whether Buddhist Sect was a trap set by the Chan Sect, Interception Sect, and other Three Teachings Mystic Sect.
For a time, many powerful figures adopted an extremely cautious attitude towards the Buddhist Sect.
On the other side, in the Western Buddhist Sect Spirit Mountain.
The Duobao Tathagata, who was transformed from the Daoist Duobao, sat high atop Spirit Mountain, looking angrily at Jin Chanzi kneeling before him.
"Jin Chanzi, given that you originated from Mount Sumeru, I will ask you one last time: do you know your mistake?"
"What wrong have I done?" Jin Chanzi said with a calm and composed expression. Although he was kneeling before the Buddha, he did not look disheveled.
He was preparing to have a proper debate with the Buddha, Duobao Tathagata, on Buddhist principles.
Born on Mount Sumeru, Jin Chanzi, who had been listening to Buddhist chants and bathed in Buddhist grace since the moment he gained sentience, believed that his understanding of Buddhist principles was far superior to that of these half-ordained Buddhist Sect disciples before him.
To Jin Chanzi's surprise, the Duobao Tathagata was too lazy to debate Buddhist principles with him. After he refused to admit his mistake, a Buddha's palm slowly descended in front of him, and in the blink of an eye, only a True Spirit remained on the spot.
"This Jin Chanzi is truly patient," the Past Buddha Randeng sidelines, suddenly remarked with a laugh.
"Yes, after waiting for so long, he finally couldn't resist debating Buddhist principles with us."
"Otherwise, if this drags on any longer, I'm afraid the Sages will start urging us to hurry."
Duobao Tathagata Buddha Duobao, who had reduced Jin Chanzi to a mere wisp of soul, couldn't help but sigh upon hearing this.
That Jin Chanzi is really good at stalling!
"However, now that Jin Chanzi is dead and his soul has left, we will trouble the Past Buddha to deliver it to the two Sage so that this Journey to the West Calamity can be initiated."
"There's nothing wrong with that."
The Past Buddha Randeng as he received the soul of Jin Chanzi and headed towards Mount Sumeru.
At present, there are almost no outsiders in the Buddhist Sect Spirit Mountain. Apart from the many disciples who rebelled from the Interception Sect, there are only Randeng and others from the Chan Sect. Therefore, Randeng and Duobao do not shy away from them.
The reason why the Chan Sect and others came to Spirit Mountain was that Yuanshi saw that within the Interception Sect, due to Tongtian's allocation of tasks, the Merits were monopolized by the Three Xiao, which caused Daoist Duobao to become estranged from the Interception Sect, and he felt a sense of unease for a time.
After returning to the Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain, he recounted the Journey to the West Calamity, explained the role of the True Person Huang Long, and then asked which disciples were willing to leave the mountain and go to the Buddhist Sect on Spirit Mountain.
Therefore, right now, whether it's Randeng, Cihang True Person Cihang, or Manjushri Zhenren, they have all voluntarily come to the Buddhist Sect to accumulate Merit from the Journey to the Journey to the West.
The Western Calamity was no secret within Spirit Mountain.
However, after watching Jin Chanzi leave, the Duobao Tathagata paused and said, somewhat Spirit Mountain, "Since Jin Chanzi is dead, there is no point in him staying on Spirit Mountain any longer."
"Fellow Arhats and Bodhisattvas, why don't you go among the Human Race and establish many Buddhist temples first?"
After saying Duobao Tathagata disappeared from the summit of Spirit Mountain, leaving behind a crowd with solemn expressions and bitter smiles.
Are you going to preach to Human Race?
This is practically suicide!
At this moment, inside Mount Sumeru, after receiving the soul of Jin Chanzi sent by Randeng, Jieyin and Zhunti instructed Randeng to return to Spirit Mountain.
The two of them never gave a friendly look to people like Randeng, True Person Cihang, and Manjushri Zhenren who came to Merit and share in the Merit.
After leaving with the Randeng, Zhunti and Jieyin looked at Jin Chanzi's soul and began to discuss how to reincarnate Jin Chanzi.
Jin Chanzi will be reincarnated ten times in total, which is no small number.
If it were only for one or two lifetimes, they could still guarantee that Jin Chanzi wouldn't be sabotaged by others.
However, in the ten Reincarnation, there are too many gaps and periods during which others seize power and take advantage of the situation.
Moreover, the Netherworld, where Reincarnation takes place, has always been Houtu's territory.
Although she knew that Houtu would not obstruct the Journey to the West Calamity, since the Journey to the West Calamity had now become Heavenly Secrets set by many Sages, anyone who dared to obstruct it would surely suffer calamity.
However, Houtu was an ally of Fuxi, and Zhunti and Jieyin were somewhat intimidated when they thought of Fuxi's series of schemes during the Investiture of the Gods Calamity that had tricked Yuanshi, Laozi, and Haotian to the point of vomiting blood.
"Senior Brother Jieyin, there must be someone from the Western Teachings within the Netherworld, otherwise I cannot rest assured about this matter."
Zhunti thought for a moment and decided to encourage Jieyin to go find Yuanshi and Laozi again, so that the four of them could go to the Netherworld together and force the Netherworld and Houtu to give up some of their power.
"This is inappropriate," Jieyin thought for a moment, then shook his head and refused.
"The Netherworld is governed by the Earthly Dao, which is in the hands of Houtu."
Houtu is in charge of the Houtu Earthly Dao. Although her cultivation level may not be as high as Fuxi's or her master's, her combat power within the Netherworld is probably no less than that of the two of them.
"Even if the four of us go together, I'm afraid Houtu will defeat us one by one."
Moreover, we've already had enough help from Yuanshi Tianzun and Laozi for the Journey to the West Calamity.
"Has Junior Brother forgotten the true nature of those two?"
