On the Western Spirit Mountain.
Buddhist light shone down, golden light scattered, and the entire immortal mountain was filled with immortal qi. It was a peaceful and prosperous scene.
Great Thunderclap Temple.
Many Buddhist disciples stood side by side on both sides of the hall. Gautama Buddha sat on the golden lotus, shining with treasure light and giving off a magnificent aura.
In the center of the hall, Gautama Buddha sat on the golden lotus. He held the lotus in his hand and looked solemn.
Tathagata slowly said,"
"Where is that Stone Monkey now?"
His Highness, Guan Yin Bodhisattva walked forward and bowed respectfully. Then, she said,"
"Buddha, that stone monkey has arrived at the place of Patriarch Subhuti at Mount Five Directions. He is kneeling outside the door, begging to be apprenticed to him.”
From the moment the stone monkey was born, Guan Yin had been ordered to keep an eye on its every move.
Up until now, all of the Stone Monkey's actions were within their plans.
She was the one who had deliberately spread the news that there were immortals on Mount Five Directions to the monkeys of Mount Flowerfruit. Even the woodcutter that the stone monkey had met on the way was an illusion.
The next important task would be handed over to Patriarch Subhuti.
Gautama Buddha raised his hand slightly to indicate that he already knew.
From the looks of it, the Journey to the West was going smoothly.
From the moment the stone monkey was born, the luck of the Buddhist Sect had clearly increased. It was not in vain for them to plan for countless years.
After the Stone Monkey was done with his apprenticeship, he would have to start preparing for the Golden Cicada Master.
The heavens have decreed that our Buddhist Sect will prosper!
Then, Tathagata smiled and said,"During the God Deification Tribulation, the people of the Celestial Sect of Wonders fought against each other, destroying the safety of the three worlds and harming the peace of the world. For his own selfishness, he poisoned all living beings in the world, and then harmed them for thousands of years. All living beings really suffered.”
"Only our Buddhist Sect is merciful and doesn't like killing. We can lead the common people to the Western Paradise and avoid the pain of sinking. Thus, the Dao Ancestor decreed that Buddhism should flourish.”
Tathagata's tongue was like a lotus flower, and the Buddhas below listened with great interest.
Just as everyone was immersed in the joy of the Buddhist Sect's luck increasing.
Tathagata's words suddenly stopped.
Then, his expression changed drastically.
The rising luck suddenly stopped and began to fall like a cliff.
Gautama Buddha suddenly opened his eyes.
"What exactly happened?"
Everyone also felt the change in luck and knew why Rulai was asking.
Everyone looked at each other in surprise.
This was the first time he had seen such a situation.
"Could it be that something happened to the Stone Monkey when it took him as its master?”
Tathagata thought to himself.
At the same time, he released his divine sense to observe the three worlds and investigate karma.
He wanted to investigate the traces of the stone monkey and Patriarch Subhuti on Mount Innerheart.
Then, he suddenly became alert.
There was not a single trace of Patriarch Subhuti in the Three Realms!
It was as if this person had never appeared.
No matter if it was the future, the past, or the present, there was never such a person.
Even the many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas below only remembered the name of Patriarch Subhuti.
All of his past was unknown.
This was no longer just killing.
The person who had attacked Patriarch Subhuti was already capable of activating the River of Time and triggering karma.
Only a Saint would have such a method.
Even they weren't sure.
Did this saint have such a great divine power?
What exactly happened?
Just as the entire Spirited Mountain fell into panic and confusion.
Buddhist chants descended from the sky, and a strange fragrance spread.
The Buddhas knew that a Buddhist mighty figure had appeared and hurriedly welcomed him.
As expected, the master of Mahayana Buddhism, Amitabha, appeared at the Great Thunderclap Monastery.
It appeared out of thin air in the Central Buddha Realm. "Greetings, Amitabha!" Tathagata led the Buddhas to greet him.”
Amitabha raised his hand and pinched the flower, indicating that they did not need to be so polite.
"Something happened on Mount Innerheart. Patriarch Subhuti was killed!”
Although his words were short, the content was shocking.
For a moment, the Buddha Realm was filled with whispers.
" That's impossible!"
"Why is there such a change?”
"The Heavenly Order Buddhist Sect should prosper. Could this be a test of the Heavenly Dao?”Everyone found it unbelievable.
Patriarch Subhuti was at the peak of the Quasi-Sage Stage, and he had the care of a Sage.
Not to mention the question of whether he dared to do it.
In this world, in the three worlds, who had such great ability? To be able to kill Patriarch Subhuti without a trace and even erase all traces of his existence?
Amitabha continued,"
"Patriarch Subhuti's disappearance is something that we can't investigate yet. "But they must be coming for our Journey to the West tribulation. We still need to make arrangements for this matter!”
As he spoke, Amitabha used his divine sense to transmit a message to Gautama Buddha.
"Rulai, you must remember to be careful. The person who killed Subhuti is not simple.”
"Not only Patriarch Bodhi, but even Saint Zhunti's Tree of Seven Wonders was destroyed! The person who attacked must be another Saint!”
"After the accident, my main body and Zhunti tried to deduce the heavenly secrets to see who the person was, but they failed many times.”
"After Subhuti's accident, the stone monkey disappeared as well.”
"But I can be sure that the monkey is still on Mount Innerheart.”
"Send someone to investigate the situation at Mount Innerheart first, then make a detailed plan.”
"As you wish!" Rulai replied respectfully.
Amitabha was the incarnation of the Sage.
Ever since the Battle of Gods Investiture, Dao Ancestor Hongjun had set a rule that Saints were not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the Three Realms.
However, in order to plan for the Cultivation Tribulation of the West, the Sage of Jieyin arranged for his avatar to travel the three worlds as his eyes and ears.
Even the two Saints were unable to deduce the cause and effect. This was too abnormal.
Tathagata had a strong premonition.
"Buddha, why don't you send me to investigate?”
The Golden Cicada Master stood out and asked the Ancestral Buddha for his life.
For some reason, everyone in the Buddhist Sect seemed to be avoiding him. He knew very little about the matter.
Earlier, he had asked about the Guanyin Stone Monkey, but Guanyin's words flickered and she deliberately avoided him.
It seemed like everyone knew something, but he was the only one hiding it from them.
Since no one was willing to tell him, then he would request to investigate and personally see what was going on.
"Golden Cicada Master, I still have important matters to arrange for you, so I won't send you this time.”
The Ancestral Buddha motioned for the Golden Cicada Master to leave.
How could he allow the Golden Cicada Master to have another change at this critical moment?
"Men, go and invite the Buddha of Delight!”
"Yes, Buddha!"
A moment later, the Buddha of Delight also appeared in the center of the Buddha Realm.
Usually, if he had nothing to do, he would cultivate the divine art of joy in his Buddha Realm. Today, Rulai suddenly called him.
It gave him an ominous feeling.
But soon, he found out the cause and effect.
Patriarch Subhuti was dead?
The Buddha of Happiness also found it unbelievable.
In terms of cultivation base, Patriarch Subhuti wasn't one of the most powerful figures in the Three Realms.
But he had a strong backing!
Who was the one who took the risk of offending the Buddhist Sect and the Saints to kill him?
"This time, I will send you to Mount Innerheart to investigate the reason.”
"If you find any clues, report immediately!”
"Yes, sir!"
The Buddha of Delight accepted the commission with a long face.
He really didn't want to take on such a difficult task!
If the other party could kill Subhuti, then he could kill him.
But he knew that he had to do it himself.
It was not that he was very powerful.
It was because…he was the most unpopular…
