Chapter seventy-eight, the plan of the Supreme Being(1/2)
Since the Holy Land of Lingshan, since I received the message that Daqin established the Taoist sect as the national religion, the atmosphere on Lingshan has become strange.
The successive failures have made more and more Buddhist monks begin to wonder whether this number of days in Buddhism is true.
At the normal pace, it should be a good idea to add the number of days to the body. However, it is a series of failures on Buddhism.
First, the Taoist sect caught the handle and gave them a warning; then they planned the blood sea, and both sides were injured again; everyone was busy licking their wounds to recover, but now they received bad news about the cooperation between the human race and the Taoist sect.
As the protagonist of heaven and earth, the human race occupies more than half of the fortune in the prehistoric world. Buddhism will definitely not be able to avoid the human race if it wants to prosper.
But the current Great Qin Dynasty and Buddhist concepts are completely out of place. Countless Buddhist monks enter the human race to preach, but in the end they all return in a mess.
Even if the Taoist priest is left by luck, it will be classified as the "evil demonic path", and is despised by the world and is not accepted by the human race at all.
Such a bad situation naturally affected the morale of Buddhism. As the boss, Tathagata, was under great pressure.
A boss who cannot lead everyone to victory is destined to have prestige. If it were not for the full support of the Two Saints, his position as Buddha would have been lost long ago.
The support of the saint is not omnipotent. If you can’t achieve any results, it will be a matter of time before you change people.
The Taoist Sect can no longer go back. If you lose your current position as Buddha again, the Tathagata's only way of self will be depressed.
"Since the founding of the two Buddhist moms, my Buddhism has gone through hundreds of millions of years of vicissitudes. The teachings of the past are no longer applicable to the current world.
For the great prosperity of Buddhism and Taoism, to spread the glory of Buddhism and Taoism throughout the vast world, and for the hundreds of millions of creatures in the vast world to bathe in the Buddha's light, I will adapt the doctrine to adapt to the laws of heaven."
As soon as he opened his mouth, he threw out a shocking thunder, which scared the Buddhas half to death. Buddhist doctrines were determined by the two Western sages, and the Buddhas only interpreted various differently on this basis.
It’s just that the kernel is there, no matter how you interpret it from different angles, it’s impossible to go too far.
The Tathagata proposed to modify the doctrine as soon as he came up, which was obviously not just to reinterpret the meaning of the sutra, but to change the Buddhist concept from the root.
"Buddha, this matter is very involved. If you are not careful, it will shake the foundation of my Buddhist school and affect the opening of great prosperity."
Maitreya responded without hesitation. There was no respect in his words, and there was a hint of disdain between his eyebrows.
Obviously, this series of failures has exacerbated the internal conflicts of Buddhism. The dissatisfaction of the direct lineage with the Tathagata has risen to the extreme, and we are too lazy to even cover up the most basic.
Originally, the Tathagata had insufficient prestige, and now he wanted to change his doctrine, which made the direct lineage even more intolerable.
"The Buddha is too worried in the future. Now the Taoist tradition of our Buddhists in the human race is almost zero. Even if the change of doctrine causes turmoil, it will lose a lot of money.
Instead of sitting here and waiting for death and wasting time for my Buddhist prosperity in vain, it is better to give it a try. You can rest assured that this matter will be explained clearly to the two Buddhist moms."
Letting go at this moment is not only Buddhism, but also Tathagata himself. There can be one or two failures, but we must never repeat it again and again.
The foundation of Buddhism is already weak, and the team gathered together by painting big cakes cannot withstand the toss and troubles at all.
In order to achieve results as soon as possible, Tathagata had to choose to go all out and take a big bet.
If there is no competitor of Taoism, Buddhism can still use its means to slowly force the human race to make compromises.
But reality is very cruel. Before the series of measures they prepared were ready, the human race ran to join the Taoist sect.
The Buddha and Taoism are the number of days in this catastrophe, but the position of the protagonist of the human race is also the number of days. If you really fight head-on, Buddhism will not gain any advantage.
If you cannot allow the race to adapt to Buddhism, you can only adapt to the human race. If Buddhism wants to prosper among the human race, one side must make a compromise.
"snort!"
After a cold shout to express his dissatisfaction, Maitreya no longer continued to dissuade. Factional conflicts are one thing, but it is related to the prosperity of Buddhism, so he still knows the importance of it.
Buddhism seems to have a great family and a great cause, but in fact, it is the one who really has centripetal force in Buddhism, which are the original Western sects. The outsiders behind them are either fooled or forced to pass on.
If Buddhism follows the great prosperity of heaven, then everyone will still be their own people; if Buddhism is hindered from the great prosperity of heaven, these guys who come over because of their interests may disband at any time.
...
After signing the personnel changes in the mansion of Emperor Gou Chen in Heaven, Li Mu was idle again.
When one has reached his level of cultivation, the value of hard practice is no longer great. The highest level of Tao following nature is that every word and action is the great way.
Of course, no one has ever truly reached this state of legend. However, Li Mu can still barely achieve it by integrating life into practice.
It seems that he is dealing with official duties, but in fact it is also enlightenment. There are many great laws and laws in the prehistoric world, and there is room for development.
It is indeed possible that you can't chew too much, but you can't stand it for a long life! The endless life span + the profound laws of heaven give a foundation for the comprehensive development of a group of powerful people in the wilderness.
Thanks to the abundant talent reserves of the martial arts lineage, Li Mu quickly set up an airs and formed his own army.
Regardless of the combat effectiveness, at least the commanding generals are above the qualified line. After preliminary training, the heavenly soldiers and generals are no longer the same as before.
As for the lack of strength, we can only rely on time to build it up slowly. If ten thousand years does not work, then 100 million years. As long as the practice takes a long enough time, even a pig can become a "second senior brother".
The strength of the heavenly soldiers and generals in the Heavenly Court stopped moving forward, mainly because they were on the List of Gods and were forced to switch to the divine way, and lacked sufficient resources to assist.
There is an old saying in the prehistoric world: "The way of immortality is free, the way of gods is rich and noble."
"Freedom of Immortality" is easy to understand. What those who practice immortals pursue is great freedom; "Tiandao wealth and honor" is not that gods pursue wealth and honor, but that if Shinichi wants to achieve great success, it must have sufficient resources to assist.
This is also the main factor that the immortal Tao suppresses the divine Tao. If the divine Tao had not had too much resource requirements, the ancient innate sages would not have left the stage.
The best resource for cultivation is naturally luck and merit, both immortal and divine. Second-class treasures, elixirs, and spiritual objects are suitable for both immortals and gods.
The difference is that gods can also use the power of incense faith to assist in their practice, while immortals regard "incense" as highly poisonous.
It is not that "incense" is poisonous, but mainly because the power of incense is contaminated with secular cause and effect, which is incompatible with the concept of freedom and freedom of immortality.
In ancient times, there were many innate races, and almost all of them were immortal species. It was simply a dream to expect these creatures to become crazy believers.
The ancient gods who have no power of faith to assist in their practice have no advantage over other practice methods. The divine court has not had time to be born, so they leave early in the disaster of ferocious beasts.
This situation continued until the birth of the acquired human race, and only then did a race suitable for spreading faith emerge. However, at this time, the ancient gods had already left the stage, and those who survived either turned to the path of immortality or demonism.
After the Killing of Gods, the Divine Way regained its vitality. Unfortunately, this time, unlike in the past, the gods who were subject to the Killing List were inherently deficient.
Even if they change to practice the divine way, it will be difficult for them to catch up with the immortal monks. After all, they are all halfway through the journey, and they are not innate gods born in the future. They cannot be 100% in line with the divine position.
In a sense, the Investiture of God and Killing Tribulation is also the Xuanmen usurping the fortune of the Divine Way. Li Mu has reason to believe that this is another plan by the ancestor Hongjun.
Using a group of disciples who were eliminated on the road of cultivation, they took the lead in occupying the Shendao fruit position, cut off the hope of reviving the Shendao, and further consolidated the status of the Xuanmen Immortal Path. It is a huge profit no matter how you look at it.
It just seemed that he had played a little too much, which aroused the dissatisfaction of all saints, which led to the Western religions rebelling against Xuan and establishing Buddha, and the Three Pure saints established their own Taoism.
生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生
Of course, the greater possibility is to make the great way. The six saints of the prehistoric world are all firm seekers of the Tao. When they reach their level of cultivation, they have long since embarked on their own path.
If they continue to hang out in the Xuanmen, they will never be able to get rid of Hongjun's shadow. In order to practice their own great ways, the two religions of Buddhism and Taoism will be born.
"Master, the power of faith reserved in the imperial palace is about to be exhausted. The allocation of the Heavenly Court alone does not require meeting daily needs. At the current consumption rate, it can last up to 30,000 years."
After hearing the words of this disciple who is unknown how many generations, Li Mu nodded slightly. Don’t think that 30,000 years seem to be long, but in fact it was just a blink of an eye when the powerful man went into seclusion.
The reason why I was able to last for 30,000 years was not because the Gou Chen Imperial Palace had rich reserves of faith, but the main reason was that the heavenly soldiers and generals only made a sound every 30,000 years.
"I know, I'll send someone to penetrate the worlds and the small worlds in the prehistoric world, and spread the glory of the heavenly court."
Li Mu said calmly.
Power is not used, and it will not be used until it expires. Heaven is not only a hub for the prehistoric world, but also a hub for connecting and dependent on the prehistoric worlds.
In addition to seizing the initiative and planning for the next big era in advance, another reason was that Li Mu set his sights on the subordinate world that was attached to the prehistoric world.
The world of great thousands dare not expect too much, because this thing is hard to come by. Almost every world of great thousands born innately fell into the hands of great forces.
The most well-known ones are: the thirty-third level of heaven, the eighteenth level of the underworld, and each level of heaven is a vast world.
In addition to these, the ancient hidden tribes also occupy many worlds that depend on the prehistoric times. For example, the Dragon Realm, the Phoenix Realm, and the Kirin Realm...
There is no doubt that this strategic world will naturally not be without the shadow of all saints.
It is said that as Li Mu knows, the Western Paradise and the Three Pure Heavens are also attached to the vast worlds of prehistoric times. The legend was opened up by saints, and Li Mu doesn’t know what the specific truth is.
Although these affiliated worlds are not as good as those of the prehistoric world, they are unique in some aspects. For any major force, it is of great significance to take over a large world.
Li Mu was not interested in snatching food from the tiger's mouth, but he could still do it by lying deep into the world of the Middle and Small Worlds that were attached to the prehistoric world.
If there is a big force invading you, you can get a card. If the world is unowned, then you can take it into your pocket.
The reasons are all ready-made. Emperor Gou Chen is in charge of the three realms of war, and naturally includes a number of subordinate worlds that depend on the prehistoric worlds.
Everything is to fulfill the duties of Emperor Gou Chen and spread the glory of the heavenly court to all worlds. As for bringing the human race and martial arts lineage over there, it is just by the way.
Although these worlds cannot bring much benefits in the short term, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is meat. Especially when the power of incense is not enough, any open source makes sense.
The Gou Chen Palace was busy radiating the glory of the Heavenly Court to all worlds, and the situation in the Heavenly Court became more and more clear. After obtaining the position of Ziwei Emperor, the power of the Heavenly Emperor became stronger and stronger, which made both the Jie Chan veins breathless.
As for the human immortals, under the instruction of Li Mu, they chose to lie flat early, and the impact they received was the smallest.
It doesn’t matter if the authority is dispersed. As long as the interests you get are not damaged, everything is easy to negotiate.
As the Emperor of Heaven, there is nothing wrong with the Jade Emperor strengthening his own authority, but he crossed the line a little bit during the course of his actions.
The problem cannot be seen in a short period of time, and it will last for a long time, which is the biggest hidden danger.
Originally, the two factions of Jiexuan were in opposition and were not strong enough, but they recognized that the human race and the immortals and gods acted as fences, and the power structure of the Heavenly Court basically stabilized.
However, with the strength of the Emperor of Heaven, this situation is gradually changing. Under the destruction of the power of time, hatred can also be diluted.
The two immortals and gods of Jiechan, who were also suppressed and became the lone brother, gradually became a trend of convergence under the secret mediation of the Supreme Saint.
Not only did the relationship between the two immortals and gods in Jiexuan eased, but also many unrelated immortals and gods in the human race were pulled over.
The undercurrents kept surging in the heavens, making Li Mu feel a little frightened, and his understanding of the saints went further.
To be continued...
