Chapter 292: Chan Teaching!
Yellow dragon?
Or Jiang Ziya?
Yuanshi Tianzun made a decision quickly. He sent out two rays of light, one fell on Huanglong Zhenren and the other fell on Jiang Ziya.
The causes of all results shone, and endless causal forces were entangled. Huang Long and Jiang Ziya only felt that an inexplicable force forcibly reversed their fate!
The original name of Huanglong Zhenren on the Conferred God List was instantly changed to Jiang Ziya: "Jiang Ziya has made great contributions to the Conferred God List, and he should be the General of Dividing Water in the East China Sea!"
"Thank you, teacher!"
Jiang Ziya bowed quickly.
Although this General Dividing Water from the East China Sea is at the bottom among the 365 deities, it is still a deity after all, which prevents him from having to reincarnate.
"Get up!"
Yuanshi Tianzun sighed softly.
Reversing cause and effect is not a difficult task for him, but the cause and effect belonging to his disciples of the Chan school can only be borne by other disciples of his Chan school.
Therefore, after he saw the names of Guangchengzi and others included in the List of Gods, he did not resort to the means of reversing cause and effect to replace them with other people.
The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat!
Although he liked Guangchengzi the most, the only people whose names were not on the list at that time were Cihang and Manjusri, so it was naturally difficult for him to activate the technique of reversing cause and effect.
When Haotian saw the Conferred Gods came to an end, he immediately said, "Brother Yuanshi, the Conferred Gods have come to an end! It's time for you to hand over the Conferred Gods List to me!"
"no!"
Yuanshi Tianzun refused without hesitation: "The most important thing in heaven is balance. For the safety of the gods, the List of Gods must not be kept by the Emperor of Heaven!"
The List of the Gods governs all the gods whose true spirits are on the list, and their life and death are all controlled by it. How could he let Haotian control the life and death of his disciples of the Chan sect?
Therefore, Yuanshi Tianzun never intended to hand over the List of Gods to Haotian.
"you!"
Haotian glared angrily.
However, facing an unreasonable and shameless saint, he was helpless and could only look at Tongtian Jiaozhu and Houtu with pleading eyes.
Upon seeing this, Master Tongtian sneered and said, "I will tell the teacher about this. Even if Junior Brother Haotian cannot be in charge of the List of Gods, it should not be in charge by you, Yuanshi Tianzun!"
Before, he knew some things about the future through Duobao Tathagata, such as the time when Yuanshi Tianzun, together with Luya Taoist, Shuizu, Fengdu Emperor, Demon Lord, Demon Buddha Ananda and the incarnation of the Styx Taoist, Qisha Taoist, used the Investiture of the Gods and other spiritual treasures as the basis to create a six-path reincarnation space to select outstanding reincarnationists... From this we can see that on the original timeline, Yuanshi Tianzun did not hand over the Investiture of the Gods to Haotian!
Now that Minghe has fallen and Lu Ya is on the list, whether there will still be six reincarnation spaces and many reincarnators in the future is something worth discussing.
To be honest, there are also many disciples of Jiejiao on the list, and Patriarch Tongtian does not want their life and death to be in the hands of others. In his mind, the most suitable person to be in charge of the List of Gods is actually Hongjun, the Taoist founder who is in harmony with the way of heaven.
Yuanshi Tianzun did not speak.
Because he knew that it was meaningless to argue with Master Tongtian at this moment... the other party would definitely ask Daozu Hongjun to make a judgment.
He was experiencing the power of Luohou Star Lord. After Xuhuang Daojun was named Luohou Star Lord, he sensed a trace of Yuanshi Tianmo.
"Could it be that Yuanshi Tianmo is related to Luohou?" Yuanshi Tianzun secretly guessed: "Or does Yuanshi Tianmo have the remaining authority of Luohou?"
As a saint, he had actually studied Shintoism, and he knew that although Luohou was the reincarnation of the Chaos Demon God, his ancestor in the prehistoric world was an innate star god.
He once saw through the long river of time and space that on the ancient Luohou star, a huge demon shadow appeared, swallowed Ji Du, refined the purple qi and Yue Bei, transformed himself into a top-level innate sacred being, and opened up the supreme magic path.
"Devil!"
Yuanshi Tianzun's heart was slightly moved, and he thought to himself: "Taoism will decline and demons will grow, demons will decline and Taoism will grow! There are several saints in the immortal way. Could it be that there will be a day in the future when the demon way will suppress the immortal way?"
In fact, at the moment when Xuhuang Daojun, the incarnation of Yuanshi Tianzun, became Luohou Xingjun, Han Yi, as Yuanshi Tianmo, also felt it.
"Is this God's will?"
He took the name of Yuanshi and could erode the Great Dao of Yuanshi. And now Yuanshi Tianzun, who took the name of Luohou, could also erode the Great Dao of Luohou in turn.
It was as if the Heaven's will wanted him and Yuanshi Tianzun to become enemies who would fight to the death!
and……
Not just Yuanshi Tianzun!
The Xuanming Qi of Taoist Lu Ya was taken away by him. Now that Taoist Lu Ya has become the Lord of the Stars, he and him have an intersection in the power of the Lord of the Stars.
"Do you think I don't have enough karma?" Han Yi looked up at the sky, feeling as if there was an invisible hand secretly fiddling with his fate. He couldn't help but sigh, "Rahu's power is okay, not many people know about it! The power of Yinghuo is known to Haotian and the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, but there are some hidden dangers and troubles!"
Thinking of this, he immediately took out the original copy of "Records of Ancient Sages", and then first integrated the origin of Rāhu into it, and then integrated a ray of Daluo spiritual light into it.
In the void, a middle-aged man suddenly appeared, who looked three-quarters similar to Han Yi, but also had some of the temperament of Yuanshi Tianzun and the Demon Ancestor Luohou.
The middle-aged man bowed to Han Yi and said, "Yuanshi Tianmo, I am honored to meet you!"
"Not bad!"
Han Yi nodded with satisfaction.
What Duobao Tathagata said was true. The Records of the Ancient Sages was his true self, which was in perfect harmony with him, and was just used to divert the cause and effect of Yuanshi Tianmo. During this period, Duobao Tathagata taught him many wonderful Buddhist methods, including the Three Body Method, in order to make him better bear the blame of Tathagata.
Buddhism originated from Taoism. The Taoist Jie Yin and the Taoist Zhunti, based on the Taoist ancestor Hongjun's method of beheading the three corpses, developed a method of beheading the three bodies, which can cultivate a retribution body, an incarnation body and a dharma body.
Dharmakaya refers to the body of truth of Buddha, representing the inner nature and wisdom of Buddha. It is invisible and formless, and has transcended the general material world. It represents the fundamental truth of the universe and the perfect enlightenment of Buddha that this Buddha has comprehended. It is a state of universal existence and the embodiment of absolute truth and wisdom.
The reward body refers to the perfect retribution body of the Buddha that appears in the hearts of all living beings. It is the reward that all living beings receive for their practice and the manifestation of the Buddha nature in their hearts.
The Reward Body Buddha possesses incredible merits and majesty, and is the embodiment of the spiritual practice achievements of all living beings. Through practice, when sentient beings’ minds are in harmony with the Buddha, they can see the Reward Body Buddha in their hearts, and thereby receive blessings and make progress in their spiritual practice.
Incarnation refers to the specific image that Buddha manifests for the benefit of sentient beings. In order to educate sentient beings, the Buddha can transform into different identities and have different images according to the needs and understanding abilities of sentient beings. The Buddha himself can teach the Dharma through the incarnation and guide sentient beings to the path of liberation.
For example, Sakyamuni is one of the most famous incarnations of Many Treasures Tathagata. He was born into the world as a prince of Kapilavastu to preach the Dharma and save sentient beings.
In addition, the future Buddhist Guanyin Bodhisattva was also a leader in the incarnation of Buddha. The thirty-three Guanyin statues, including Willow Guanyin, Dragon Head Guanyin and Sutra-holding Guanyin, became famous in later generations.
Buddha is originally formless, and Bodhisattva is also formless. However, in order to gain faith, Buddha and Bodhisattva must transform the formless into form when they preach in the human world.
At this moment, Han Yi used the "Records of the Sages" and the authority of Luohou as a basis, and integrated it with the fate of Yuanshi Tianmo to cultivate the reward body among the three bodies of Buddhism.
Buddha has no form, Bodhisattva has no form, Yuanshi has no form, and the devil has no form. It can be said that they all lead to the same destination through different paths. And this method of reward body improved by Many Treasures Tathagata is far stronger than the original Buddhist method of reward body.
"In this case, there is no need to worry. Yuanshi Tianzun tracked down Yuanshi Tianmo and found me!" Han Yi immediately showed a satisfied smile, and then said shamelessly: "I am the saint's direct disciple and the future Tathagata Buddha of Buddhism. How could I be related to the devil?"
He handed the Heavenly Demon Tower to his body and said, "From now on, you are the Yuanshi Heavenly Demon! If you have nothing to do, don't contact me!"
Upon hearing this, Bao Shen couldn't help but laugh and said, "If the saint doesn't come out, what are you afraid of? Even if Yuanshi Tianzun finds out, his incarnation alone can't do anything to us!"
Although Han Yi, the incarnation of a saint, has the combat power of a sub-saint, he is proficient in the avenue of time and space, and with several magic weapons in his hands, it is difficult for a saint to keep him.
Han Yi smiled and said, "Since you can be a good person and occupy a righteous position, why do you want to be a demon?"
"You? Nice guy?"
Bao Shen couldn't help but laugh: "Then from today on, you will be the good guy! The bad things and evil deeds will be done by me, Yuanshi Tianmo!"
After saying that, a magic light flashed, and the body disappeared directly in front of Han Yi.
at the same time.
Yuanshi Tianzun, who had just witnessed the Canonization of Gods, summoned Cihang Taoist, Samantabhadra Zhenren and Manjusri Guangfa Tianzun to Yuxu Palace as soon as he returned to Kunlun Mountain.
Yuanshi Tianzun looked at the three disciples in front of him and said with a smile: "Randeng wants to go to the West. You three should also think about going to the West with him!"
"Disciple knows his mistake!"
Upon hearing this, the three of them kowtowed immediately.
They didn't know how Yuanshi Tianzun knew it, but since the saint had pointed it out, it would be meaningless for them to try to argue.
"Still honest!"
Yuanshi Tianzun snorted coldly, and his eyes swept over the three people one by one: "The Conferred God Ceremony has come to an end, and my Chan Sect has been defeated. It's not surprising that you have this idea!"
Cihang and others were extremely terrified and kept kowtowing, fearing that they would be expelled from the sect by the saint in the next moment.
"do not be afraid!"
Yuanshi Tianzun suddenly spoke: "I have no intention of punishing you. I have discussed this with your uncle and I agree that you can follow Randang to the West!"
"Western Dharma, you can learn it if you want!"
"but……"
"I want you to establish my teachings in Buddhism and spread my teachings!"
Although he was defeated miserably this time, Yuanshi Tianzun was not discouraged. Instead, he listened to Taiqing's advice and decided to take the initiative to let Cihang and others go to the West.
"This……"
Cihang was in a dilemma: "Teacher, there are many masters in Buddhism. How could they let the three of us use the teachings of Chanjiao to influence the disciples of Buddhism?"
"No, it's Zen!"
Yuanshi Tianzun's eyes flashed with a gleam of light: "In the current Buddhist sect, the original Western sect disciples and the Jie sect disciples who followed Duobao to the West almost each account for half! There must be differences in the concepts of both sides! I want you to seek common ground while reserving differences and integrate the teachings of my Chan sect with the concepts of Buddhism!"
"As long as you can gain a foothold in Buddhism and establish the Zen sect, I will be able to make you the new leaders of Buddhism when the saints return in the future!"
