The Book of Changes had returned. Another two hundred years had passed. In this short period of time, the people who had come to obtain the scriptures had come four times.
Now, the skeletons of the Book of Changes had been gathered. They were all skeletons of the nine lives of the person who had learned the scriptures. They were just waiting for the tenth life!
On this day, while Zhou Yi was meditating, a woman's cry sounded from the riverbank!
"Book of Changes! Come out!"
"Guanyin!" Why is she here?"
Zhou Yi didn't think too much and directly came out of the water. Guanyin stood on the shore, dressed in white, holding a jade bottle in her hand, and a golden wheel of virtue flashed behind her head.
After Zhou Yi came ashore, he bowed and said,"Disciple greets Guan Yin Bodhisattva!"”
Guanyin was originally Daoist Cihang, one of the twelve Golden Immortals of Chan School.
After betraying the sect and entering the Western Sect, although she turned into a woman, it was a blessing in disguise and she entered the Sage-to-be Realm.
Apart from Dipamkara, Samantabhadra, Manjusri, and Piliusun were all Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals.
When Guanyin entered the Sage-to-be Stage, she immediately became the representative of the Chan School of Buddhism.
Manjushri Samantabhadra feared that his grandson would follow the lead of Guanyin.
The current Buddhism could be said to be a hodgepodge, with various forces.
This was because Rulai was the vice-sect leader and eldest disciple of Jie School. After he merged with the Western Sect, he directly accepted the original 3,000 Red Dust Guests of Jie School.
They were all senior brothers and junior brothers, and the cultivation of those three thousand guests was basically taught by Duo Bao.
After all, in the former Jie School, Sect Master Tongtian did not have the time to teach other disciples, so the eldest disciple, Duo Bao, was the one who taught.
After the three thousand guests entered the Western Sect, they were already frustrated. Who would have thought that after a few hundred years, Eldest Shixiong would also come?
Furthermore, in the blink of an eye, he became the boss of the Buddhist Sect. Immediately, 3,000 people joined Rulai's forces, causing Rulai's strength to increase greatly.
This faction was the largest faction in the Buddhist Sect and the cornerstone for Rulai to control the entire Buddhist Sect.
On the other side were the five members of Chan School, Dipamkara, Guanyin, Manjusri, Samantabhadra, and Kiliusun.
The five of them were the mainstays of the current Buddhism. During the God-Sealing Period, they fought with Jie School.
He did not expect that after coming to the Buddhist Sect, the hostility would be eliminated. However, the five of them would band together and form a powerful middle-to-upper-class faction.
Then there were the local forces of the Western Religious Sect.
These people occupied a large number of Buddhist sects, but the Western sects were originally poor and had very few people.
Moreover, people with high aptitude would not go to Buddhism. Moreover, Untainted Land was originally the world of Xuanmen, and Buddhism was a side sect.
Those who had some knowledge and ideals would not enter the Buddhist Sect. In the end, there were not many mighty figures among the original disciples of the Western Sect.
Cundi's disciples were all good-for-nothings.
As a Future Buddha, Maitreya was one of the more outstanding disciples of Zhunti. He had not yet entered the Sage-to-be realm and had been hovering around the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm.
Then there was Ksitigarbha, Medicine Buddha, and so on. These were all original disciples of the Western Sect.
They occupied a large number of people and were the foundation of the Western Sect.
This formed the current three-legged situation of the Buddhist Sect.
The three forces formed the current Buddhism.
Because Guanyin had become a Sage-to-be and was familiar with Eastern things, she took on the task of traveling to the West.
Guanyin had the final say in the arrangements for the entire Journey to the West.
Zhou Yi knew the reason for this.
Guanyin looked at the Book of Changes with a complicated expression and asked,""Book of Changes, have you collected all nine skeletons of the Buddhist Scriptures Seeker?”
"Bodhisattva, it's all here!" Zhou Yi said. Why did they need the head of a person to cross the river?”
Guanyin said lightly," The Flowing Sand River has a great karma with the person who took the scriptures. The head of the person who took the scriptures for nine generations is needed to cross the river. Otherwise, it is impossible to obtain the true scriptures!"”
Zhou Yi really wanted to ask what kind of karma it was.
However, it seemed that Guanyin didn't want to answer, and Zhouyi wouldn't ask either.
"Zhou Yi, do you have the Flags of the Five Regions?" Guanyin continued.”
As soon as Guanyin said this, Zhou Yi immediately knew that Guanyin must have received the information.
Zhou Yi nodded and said,""That's right. I was lucky enough to obtain the Northern Flag, one of the Primordial Flags of the Five Regions!”
Guanyin was so jealous that she didn't even have a supreme-grade Connate Numinous treasure.
"Can you take it out for me to see?" Guanyin asked after calming herself down.”
"Since Bodhisattva wants to see it, I'll show it to you!" Zhou Yi nodded and said.”
After Zhou Yi finished speaking, a black flag appeared above his head. In an instant, it covered the sky and the sun. The world was hazy as the black flag danced in the wind!
Guanyin said in shock," It's indeed the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag. This treasure has never been born, and it doesn't have an owner. I didn't expect it to fall into your hands. What a good opportunity!"”
Zhou Yi said humbly,"I was lucky to get it, it's nothing!"”
Guanyin was filled with envy and jealousy. She didn't have any spiritual treasures. Only the willow branch was considered a Connate superior-grade spiritual treasure.
The Pure Jade Bottle also had the Three Light Holy Water, which was the only one in the Three Realms. There was nothing else that anyone could be proud of.
In the Three Realms, it could be said to be very poor.
This Book of Changes actually had a supreme-grade Connate Numinous treasure. This was one of the Five-Element Flags, a cult master level Dharma treasure.
The other four flags had owners. The White Cloud Bound Flag, also known as the Immortal Gathering Flag, was in the hands of the Queen Mother. It was given to her by the Dao Ancestor.
The Green Lotus Flag was in Jieyin's hands. It was given to him by the Dao Ancestor.
The Wuji Apricot Flag was in the hands of Heavenly Lord Yuanshi, who had obtained it from the Treasure Rock.
The Floating Flame Flag is in Laozi's hands, and he obtained it from the Treasure-snatching Rock.
Only this Xuanyuan Water Control Flag had never appeared and had no owner. He did not expect it to be obtained by a junior.
It was a waste. Guanyin didn't want to rob them. However, as the master of Zhouyi was Yun Zhongzi, who was also an Almighty, Guanyin had to bear it.
"I have something to discuss with you, Zhou Yi!" Guanyin asked.”
Zhou Yi nodded and said,"Please speak, Bodhisattva. I'm all ears!"”
"Are you willing to abandon your Dao and become a Buddha and join our Buddhist Sect? I can guarantee that you will be a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal without any worries. After the Journey to the West, you will become the Buddha." Guanyin said word by word.”
