The great change in the demon race gave the Buddhist Sect a sense of crisis. Immediately, the entire Buddhist Sect began to dig stones all over the world, gradually getting closer to the demon race.
Fortunately, they were all digging stones now, so they did not have to do anything.
At the critical moment of the Journey to the West, Buddhism did not allow the demons to get involved. Buddhism and the demons were fighting for raw stones and spiritual stones, but they maintained basic restraint.
Rulai was an extremely intelligent person. His schemes were deep and unfathomable. Who could underestimate Rulai's intelligence if he could even fool Laozi?
When he was apotheosized, Rulai was still in possession of many treasures. When he was in the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, he did something stupid. He didn't control the formation properly and actually attacked Laozi.
The difference between a Quasi-Sage and a Sage was like the difference between an ant and a human.
Was Duo Bao stupid? Abundant Treasures wasn't stupid. He knew that Jie School couldn't be saved, so he took the initiative to sneak attack him.
In the end, he was captured alive by me.
After the apotheosis, the situation had changed greatly. Sages could no longer come to the Chaos, and the Untainted Land had become the Three Realms.
At this time, Laozi let his clone, Grand Supreme Elder, bring Abundant Treasures to the west and let Abundant Treasures establish Buddhism to share the luck of the Western Sect.
This move was really fierce. How fierce was it? This showed how powerful Laozi's plan was. The Buddhism with many treasures directly divided the luck of the Western Sect. The two Sages of the Western Sect could not be defeated. The leader of the Western Sect was Dipamkara.
However, the Western religion was no match for Buddhism and was defeated by Buddhism.
If nothing unexpected happens, the Western Sect will be exterminated because of Laozi's scheme.
At the critical moment, Zhunti asked Kong Xuan to kill Abundant Treasures. Kong Xuan was the most powerful person under the Sage Realm, and the Western Religious Sect could only survive by doing so.
However, Kong Xuan failed. Not only did he fail, but he was also subdued by Rulai. This was because Rulai broke out of Kong Xuan's belly and conferred Kong Xuan the title of Buddha Mother, Great Ming King.
This battle shocked Jieyin and Zhunti, as well as everyone from the Western Religious Sect.
The Western Religious Sect was also unstable internally. The unstable factor was that Zhunti had once accepted 3,000 guests from the Tribe of Severity.
In terms of cultivation and talent, the 3,000 guests of Jie School were much higher than the main disciples of the Western Sect. They had become the mainstay of the Western Sect.
The Western Religious Sect did not have many people to begin with. The West was barren, and Jieyin Zhunti did not cultivate any talents at all.
Among them, Maitreya Buddha, Medicine Buddha, and Ksitigarbha were the outstanding disciples of the Western Sect.
However, these three people were not Quasi-Sages. They were not qualified to support a large sect.
The last battle of the Gods Investiture shattered the Wilderness. It seemed that Zhunti had won, but in fact, the two of them had not won.
After breaking Untainted Land, Hongjun stabilized heaven and earth again and repaired Untainted Land into the Three Realms. However, the Three Realms were more fragile than Untainted Land, so they no longer allowed these Sages to descend to the Lower Realm.
Once this decree was issued, the Western Sect would be the one to suffer the most.
Let's see who the Western Religious Sect has. They have brought Dipamkara, Cihang, Manjusri, Samantabhadra, and Detaining Sun from Chan School.
He had obtained 3,000 guests from Jie School. Most of them were Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals, the elites of the 10,000 Immortals of Jie School. As for the remaining 7,000 people, they were all killed if their aptitude was not good.
He even managed to get a top-notch itinerant cultivator, Kong Xuan.
Without Hongjun's decree, Jieyin Zhunti could naturally suppress these people and make them the backbone of the Western Religious Sect.
However, after Jieyin and Zhunti left, these forces naturally did not submit to each other. Some were from Jie School, some were from Chan School, and some were from Western Religious Sect.
The Western Religious Sect was the weakest among them.
Jieyin Zhunti naturally knew that he could not subdue these people with the power of his own sect, so he could only make Dipamkara, who had the highest cultivation, become Buddha.
The hatred between Jie School and Chan School was very deep. Although they were now from the same school, this grudge could not be resolved.
How could Dipamkara bear the burden of becoming Buddha? The three thousand guests of Jie School were the mainstays of Buddhism, so how could they obey Dipamkara?
As for the local disciples of the Western Religious Sect, Maitreya, Medicine Buddha, and Ksitigarbha, they were not convinced that outsiders like Dipamkara had taken over the position of Buddha.
After the apotheosis, Jie School was destroyed, but there were also many internal conflicts within the Western Sect.
The sharp Laozi immediately discovered this opportunity and brought the Eldest Senior Brother of Jie School to turn into a barbarian.
To establish Buddhism on Spirited Mountain, the Western Sect was called Buddha and Bodhisattva, but it was not called Buddhism, but Western Sect. After all, Jieyin Zhunti established a sect under the Way of Heaven, so it was Western Sect.
Grand Supreme Elderly Lord directly asked Abundant Treasures to intercept the name of Buddha in the Western sects and directly establish the sect as Buddhism.
This was a natural hostility. It was probably to split the fate of the Western Sect.
The believers could not tell which of these two names was orthodox. They believed that since Buddhism was called Buddhism, it was naturally orthodox.
This resulted in the Western religion being the original, but after the appearance of Buddhism, the name seemed to be pirated.
Faced with the appearance of Buddhism and the fact that the sect master was the eldest senior brother of Jie School, internal conflicts appeared in the Western Sect. Some of the 3,000 guests of Jie School ran away frequently, and more and more of them ran to Buddhism.
Abundant Treasures naturally opened the door to his former junior brothers. All those who came were conferred the title of Buddha. Soon, Buddhism grew stronger. Three thousand Buddhas were established, and the Western Sect was on the verge of extinction.
In desperation, Zhunti sent Kong Xuan to kill Rulai, but he was subdued by Rulai.
Buddhism had already grown stronger here, and it was only a matter of time before the Western religion was wiped out.
However, Rulai also had ambitions in his heart and would not be controlled by Grand Supreme Elder. Jieyin Zhunti had also discovered this.
Let Dipamkara talk to Rulai directly. The two sects would become one. Rulai would be the Buddha, and Dipamkara would represent the interests of the Clan of Enlightenment and be conferred the title of Ancient Buddha and Past Buddha.
Maitreya represented the interests of the disciples of the Western Religious Sect and was conferred the title of Future Buddha.
At the same time, Zhunti was willing to stand up for Tathagata and resist the pressure of the Sage. Tathagata could completely get rid of Laozi, control the highest power, and be completely independent.
After a round of discussion, the path of integration between the two sects was finalized. The Western Sect moved from Mount Meru in the west to Spirited Mountain.
Rulai had accepted three thousand Buddhas, so he was naturally the leader of Buddhism. He respectfully called Dipamkara the ancient Buddha. His status was supreme, stabilizing the self-esteem of the few people from the Clan of Enlightenment.
After all, the few people from Chan School were all Quasi-Sages and the top combat strength of Buddhism. They had to be given the highest honor.
Dipamkara was an ancient Buddha, while Guanyin, Samantabhadra, and Manjushri were venerables. Although they were called Bodhisattvas, their status was above Buddha!
On the other hand, the cultivation of the disciples of the Western Sect was relatively low, but they were also natives of the Western Sect. Their cultivation was not high, and most of them were Arhats, Vajra Bodhisattvas, and the like.
Of course, this gave hope to the people of the Western Religious Sect. Maitreya Buddha became the future Buddha, the crown prince.
Just like that, Tathagata integrated the interests of the three parties, and Buddhism became a dark horse. Just like the stock market, it rose to its limit in an instant.
From the establishment of Buddhism to its daily rise, in the blink of an eye, all the factions in the three worlds were dumbfounded.
As for Tathagata, he had obtained the greatest luck. He was simply the protagonist. He was invincible. He was about to go to the West again. When the West was prosperous, Tathagata would rise with the tide!
