Inside the Western Teachings' Lingshan Mountain.

Jieyin, after returning from Zixiao Palace, grew more and more angry.

"Senior Brother! This Dao Ancestor is too biased! He gives all the benefits to Sanqing. Are we, his registered disciples, not disciples?"

Zhunti complained bitterly to Jieyin. He could understand if Dao Ancestor Hongjun was biased towards Xuan Yi and Nuwa, as Xuan Yi was the Dao Ancestor's son and Nuwa his daughter-in-law.

But now, his blatant favoritism towards Sanqing was something Zhunti really couldn't swallow.

Facing Zhunti's constant complaints, Jieyin also felt bitter.

"Hahaha!"

"I told you long ago, following Hongjun, you'll never get anywhere!"

A deep voice echoed, and a figure in a black robe, surrounded by demonic energy, appeared before the two.

"So what? Now the Primordial Chaos is Dao Ancestor's word alone. Can we possibly oppose the Dao Ancestor?"

Jieyin and Zhunti were not surprised by this person's appearance, as if they had already known of his existence.

"It's very simple! As long as you cooperate with our Demon Race, I, Mo Yi, can guarantee that after this is accomplished, Buddhism will become the foremost great religion in the Primordial Chaos."

Mo Yi was an Outer Realm Sky Demon. The Outer Demonic Realm was like a replica of the Primordial Chaos, and Luohu held a status similar to Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

Mo Yi himself was the foremost Saint in the Outer Demonic Realm, having reached the seventh heaven of the Saint realm, surpassing Taishang and Nuwa in cultivation.

However, due to the immense Destiny of the Xuanmen, even after Mo Yi endured countless hardships to arrive in the Primordial Chaos, his cultivation was suppressed to only the second heaven of the Saint realm.

"You only need to betray the Xuanmen and establish Buddhism. The Destiny of the Xuanmen will surely plummet, and our Demon Race's strength will grow stronger."

"Then you will be in the light, and I will be in the shadows. When the Xuanmen's Destiny falls to its lowest point, and our Demon Race descends upon the Primordial Chaos, Buddhism will be the foremost religious sect."

"What do you think?"

Mo Yi had been in the Primordial Chaos since the two became Saints, constantly trying to tempt them.

Seeing Jieyin and Zhunti's deep resentment towards Hongjun today, he spoke again, inviting them.

"Hmph! You say it so easily. If we betray the Xuanmen, the Dao Ancestor will likely erase us immediately. How can we even talk about developing a religious sect?"

Zhunti was tempted, but he feared being instantly "snapped" out of existence by the Dao Ancestor even more.

"Don't worry, even if you betray the Xuanmen, Hongjun won't make a move."

Mo Yi seemed extremely confident.

"Why are you so certain the Dao Ancestor won't act against us?"

Mo Yi's confident demeanor made Jieyin and Zhunti unable to help but ask, filled with doubt.

"Our Outer Demonic Realm is like the Primordial Chaos in a mirror. I am well aware of any restrictions Hongjun faces after merging with the Heavenly Dao."

"After you betray the Xuanmen, Hongjun will definitely want to destroy you, but he cannot. This is the grand trend of the Great Dao."

"Do you think Hongjun doesn't know you will betray the sect? Yet he still chose to let you become Saints. This is a grand trend set by the Great Dao, and Hongjun is powerless to change it."

"My appearance is merely to hasten your betrayal. What? Do you still have doubts?"

Hearing Mo Yi's words, Zhunti began to waver.

"Senior Brother, we can't develop in the Xuanmen anyway. When there are benefits, the Dao Ancestor gives them to Xuan Yi, and if Xuan Yi doesn't want them, he gives them to Sanqing."

"If this continues, when will we ever get our chance to shine?"

"Let's just establish Buddhism, so we won't be controlled by others!"

Jieyin heard this and felt it made a lot of sense. He immediately made up his mind.

"Alright, I can agree to establish Buddhism, but I hope you will fulfill your promise when the time comes."

Seeing the two finally agree, Mo Yi was overjoyed. It was worth all his persuasion. He immediately promised, "Don't worry. Our Demon Race does not establish sects. When the future event is accomplished, Buddhism will be the foremost great religion in the Primordial Chaos."

On Lingshan Mountain, Zhunti and Jieyin stood solemnly on the peak.

"Senior Brother, let's begin!"

Jieyin and Zhunti circulated their magical powers and began to announce to the Primordial Chaos.

"Heavenly Dao above, we, Jieyin and Zhunti of the Western Teachings, today depart from the Xuanmen and establish the Western Teachings as Buddhism. I, Jieyin, shall be Amitabha of Buddhism. I, Zhunti, shall be the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Buddhas of Buddhism. We hope the Heavenly Dao bears witness!"

Jieyin and Zhunti's voices resounded throughout the Primordial Chaos. Their appearances also began to change. Their Daoist robes transformed into kasayas! The black hair on their heads slowly fell off, and soon they became bald.

"Rumble!"

The vows of Saints shook the heavens and earth. The Destiny of the Xuanmen instantly plummeted by nearly thirty percent. With rolling thunder, their oaths spread throughout the Primordial Chaos.

Xuan Yi, Taishang Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun, Nuwa Empress, Tongtian Jiaozhu, and countless other powerful beings in the three realms looked towards the West with shocked eyes.

"Have Jieyin and Zhunti gone mad? How dare they? Aren't they afraid of the Dao Ancestor's wrath?"

Countless powerful beings in the three realms were horrified, lamenting that Jieyin and Zhunti had gone mad.

On Shouyang Mountain, in the Taiqing Palace, Taishang Laozi's face was grim.

"Betraying the Xuanmen to establish Buddhism, hmph! Truly ungrateful wretches!"

In the Yuqing Palace on Kunlun Mountain, Yuanshi Tianzun's face was as dark as ink, and he directly cursed.

"Jieyin and Zhunti! How dare you establish your own Buddhist sect! You are not worthy of being Saints alongside us Sanqing! You deserve to die!"

On Golden Turtle Island, in the Biyou Palace, Tongtian Jiaozhu was first shocked, then his face turned cold.

"How dare Jieyin and Zhunti betray the Xuanmen and cause our Xuanmen's Destiny to plummet! Aren't they afraid of the Teacher's punishment?"

On Jade Capital Mountain, Xuan Yi and Nuwa also had extremely grim expressions. The sharp decline in the Xuanmen's Destiny greatly affected Nuwa as well.

Xuan Yi, in particular, was filled with murderous intent. He knew that the two would betray Buddhism in the future, but he hadn't expected it to happen so soon.

"Hmph! If Father is unable to act, then this humble Taoist will teach these two traitors a lesson."

The more he thought about it, the angrier Xuan Yi became. He could no longer hold back and rose to fly towards the west.

Meanwhile, in the western region of the Primordial Chaos, atop Spirit Mountain, Jieyin and Zhunti were clad in colorful kasayas, emitting boundless Buddhist light.

Their faces, no longer bearing the look of suffering from before, were now filled with serenity and great compassion.

"Today, Mahayana Buddhism is established. From now on, we will use Buddhism as our foundation to enlighten the beings of the Primordial Chaos. From this day forth, there will be no Western Teachings, only Western Mahayana Buddhism!"

Jieyin and Zhunti's gazes were incredibly benevolent as they announced to the disciples behind them.

"Enlighten the beings of the Primordial Chaos? Today, this humble Taoist will first enlighten you two traitors!"

A voice echoed from the Nine Heavens, followed by a colossal palm, vast enough to blot out the sky, descending upon them.

The immense palm exuded an aura of infinite destruction. If it struck Spirit Mountain, it was likely that not a single disciple of Buddhism would survive.

Jieyin and Zhunti were greatly alarmed and quickly moved to block it.

Instantly, Buddhist light erupted from their bodies, transforming them into two Buddhas who clashed with the giant palm.

"Boom!"

Although the giant palm's attack was blocked, Jieyin and Zhunti were still sent crashing into the ground.

"Our Buddhism has just been established, who dares to be so audacious and act so presumptuously here!"

The two, disheveled, flew out from the ground and were immediately enraged.
