Chapter 310: Please Die The sacred place of Lingshan has a long history. It is the ancestral home of Buddhism in the Three Realms and an undoubted holy place in the eyes of countless Buddhists. Almost every moment, Buddhists from the four continents come to worship. At the foot of Lingshan Mountain, the ascetic monks were wearing clothes that could hardly cover their bodies. Their knees, soles of feet and even arms were covered with thick calluses that even bled. The pilgrimage road behind him was also covered with blood. The ascetic monk walking in the front was an old man with a gray beard and a hunched body. He looked very old and it seemed that he would return to the underworld in the next moment. But his eyes were very bright, and his whole body exuded a surging spirit. The ascetic old monk raised his head and saw the dazzling sacred mountain that looked like gold, and the light in his eyes became even brighter. This old monk was just a mortal, but he was able to travel 18,000 miles, bowing his head with every step, just to pay homage to the holy place in his heart. This shows how firm his faith is. "After this experience, you will see the Buddha." The ascetic old monk muttered to himself: "From now on, there is no Buddha in my eyes, but there is Buddha in my heart."

"Amitabha." The old ascetic monk put his hands together, bowed down, and prostrated himself on the ground. Countless ascetic monks behind him did the same thing. However, just as the ascetic old monk stood up and took another step forward, there was no sound of footsteps following behind him. The ascetic old monk turned around in confusion, only to see that all the pilgrims behind him were staring blankly in the direction of Lingshan. He also turned his head and looked over. His eyes, which were not blurry but bright, looked towards Lingshan. Just one glance and the ascetic old monk was stunned. Before he bowed down, the sacred mountain in front of him, under the shining sun, was shining with a golden glass light. And at this moment, it was only a few breaths apart. The sacred mountain is withering. Yes, wither. The entire Lingshan Mountain was shrouded in a purple-gold divine light that descended from the sky. This divine light was extremely wide and long, completely covering the Lingshan Mountain. Within this purple-gold divine light, the sacred mountain that was originally as bright as gold now seemed to have been thrown into a pool of sulfuric acid. It is full of potholes, rusty, and its sense of decay and withering is almost impossible to conceal. "Something happened at Lingshan!" "Amitabha! What on earth is going on?" "Why has our Buddha's holy land become like this?" "That purple-gold divine light seems to come from heaven?" There were many knowledgeable pilgrims behind the ascetic old monk. They spoke one by one, and their words could not hide their panic, mixed with anger and compassion. "Amitabha……"

The ascetic old monk clasped his trembling hands together and closed his eyes in pain. I don’t know how long it took, but when the ascetic old monk opened his eyes, the purple-gold divine light that forcibly enveloped the entire Lingshan Mountain and exerted inexplicable power disappeared. But Lingshan could never return to its previous state. The vitality in the ascetic old monk's eyes disappeared, and became as turbid as those of an ordinary old man. He swayed and fell backward uncontrollably, but fortunately he was caught by the pilgrims behind him. The ascetic old monk pushed away the pilgrims who were crowding towards him, staggered to his feet, and looked towards Lingshan with eyes full of sadness. "Amitabha……" He chanted the Buddha's name tremblingly and spoke bitterly. "The Buddha violated the law, what is wrong with Lingshan? What is wrong with the Buddhists?" "Ugh……" The sigh of the ascetic old monk seemed to turn into substance, and was carried by the wind, around Lingshan Mountain, and blew to the Great Leiyin Temple. Inside the Great Leiyin Temple. The Tathagata Buddha sat upright on a lotus platform, his expression neither sad nor happy. Behind him are the two venerable Ananda and Kasyapa. On both sides of the steps in front of him are the four Bodhisattvas Manjushri, Samantabhadra, Avalokitesvara and Mahasthamaprapta. However, except for the Tathagata Buddha, the other six Buddhist venerables and Bodhisattvas all had somewhat ugly expressions. "Amitabha." Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva broke the silence, stepped out from the crowd, bowed to the Buddha three times, and said, "Buddha, please tell me how to deal with this." She didn't ask whether to fight back, nor did she ask why. Because everyone present here knows the reason very well, as for counterattack... Stop it. No matter how shut down the Heavenly Palace is, or how overwhelmed it is, Buddhism cannot shake it. That purple-gold divine light came from the sky beyond the sky. It was the great emperor in the Purple Palace, who gathered the might of an entire sea of ​​stars to unite all the stars in the three realms together, bursting out with blazing starlight. Such starlight, shining on Lingshan, is so powerful that even the sacred land of Lingshan cannot resist it and can only allow the light from thousands of stars to destroy Lingshan and turn it into rust. This is just on the surface. Inside, there are more changes than just those on the surface of Lingshan. Buddhism regards Lingshan as its ancestral temple, and to a large extent, Lingshan represents Buddhism. Now that Lingshan has been destroyed like this, the fortune of Buddhism will also be damaged. "Emperor Ziwei is not the Emperor of Heaven after all. It is too overbearing to act like this."

Behind the Tathagata Buddha, Venerable Ananda spoke slowly, but his words were much more radical than those of Guanyin. The implication is simple. What Emperor Ziwei did was not fair, and we cannot just suffer this loss in silence. In fact, Venerable Ananda’s position was already very clear when he mentioned the name of Emperor Ziwei. Everyone knows who did this, but saying it out loud and not saying it out loud are two different things. "Amitabha." "Amitabha." After hearing Ananda’s words, Venerable Kashyapa and Bodhisattva Mahasthamaprapta spoke one after another. Although there was no follow-up, their attitudes were already made clear. These two people stand on the side of Venerable Ananda. Guanyin Bodhisattva was neither sad nor happy. After paying his respects, he quietly returned to his seat, standing alongside the two Bodhisattvas Manjushri and Samantabhadra. The six Bodhisattvas present, who were no less powerful than the Buddha, expressed their positions clearly to the Tathagata. The Tathagata Buddha lowered his eyes and remained silent. Should I fight back or take the loss? Time passed little by little, and Tathagata Buddha finally spoke, breaking the silence. "The momentum is coming." The Tathagata Buddha opened his mouth, called out a name, and then fell silent. "Amitabha." The Bodhisattva Mahasthamaprapta stepped out from the crowd, clasped his hands together in salute, and then his figure slowly disappeared. Ananda and Kasyapa looked at each other, nodded to each other, and then looked at the three silent Bodhisattvas together. Guanyin Bodhisattva still lowered his eyes and said, "Since this is the case, I will return to Luojia Mountain." After saying this, the three Bodhisattvas disappeared together. At the same time, it also announced the result of a debate among the most core members of the Tathagata Buddha's lineage within Buddhism. The main reason why these Bodhisattvas did not become Buddhas is that they belonged to the lineage of Tathagata, so they could only be Bodhisattvas but not Buddhas. If he became a Buddha, it would mean being equal to Tathagata in name, opening up a unique Dharma lineage in Lingshan, and he would have to fight for his own interests. He could form alliances, but they would never be as close as they are now. Jiang Lin was naturally unaware of what happened on Lingshan Mountain. What he didn't know was that after sending him away, Emperor Ziwei decisively mobilized the entire sea of ​​stars and gave an extremely domineering warning to Buddhism, or to be more precise, to Tathagata Buddha. But it is obvious that in the face of this warning, Tathagata Buddha did not choose to calm down, but to escalate the situation. Of course, these things have nothing to do with Jiang Lin for the time being. He was sent back to Huashan by Emperor Ziwei with a sleeve.

At the top of Mount Huashan, Sha Litian was waiting there. When he saw Jiang Lin, he hurried forward and bowed. "Greetings, Master." Sha Litian raised his head cautiously and felt the purple starlight aura that had not yet dissipated from the mage in front of him. This made Sha Litian's heart shaken greatly. Master, go and pay homage to the Emperor of Ziwei! This discovery made Sha Litian's attitude even more respectful, even humble. "Master, I am from Zhou Jue Yin Tian Gong, leading 72 armies to clean up all traces of Bon Dao sacrifices in the four continents in accordance with the law." "It took twenty-nine days and was completed three days ago." "Now, all the demons have returned to Fengdu and are waiting for orders. Master, please give us your instructions." Hearing this, Jiang Lin nodded calmly, but his mind was in a trance. I have only been in the Ziwei Star Palace for less than a quarter of an hour, but more than a month has passed in the human world? This was not beyond Jiang Lin's expectations. The speed of time flowing in the Heaven Outer Heaven is not fixed. The last time Jiang Lin went to worship Ziwei, he was lucky, because the speed of time flowing in the human world and the Heaven Outer Heaven was the same. But this time, obviously there was no such good luck. But it's harmless. "Everyone in his place." Jiang Lin opened his mouth and gave orders, but Sha Litian in front of him did not move. "Master, please allow me to report. I have one more thing to ask." Sha Litian said cautiously, "I have written to General Jiuyuan Shatong, asking him to give the three demon hearts of the Heavenly Demon Kings in my Zhou Jue Yintian Palace to Feng Lixiao, so that he can improve his strength and serve as a more appropriate attendant magician. The general has agreed." "Please allow Feng Li Xiao to temporarily leave and return to Fengdu Heavenly Prison to refine his devil heart." "During this period of time, if the Master does not mind, I am willing to replace Feng Lixiao and serve the Master." Upon hearing this, Jiang Lin looked at Sha Litian deeply and had only one thought in his mind. He is very good at handling things. The Six-Hole Heavenly Demon was extremely difficult to deal with before being tamed, but after being tamed, it became the most loyal and capable lackey. Sha Litian is obviously the best among them. "Feng Lixiao, your opinion." Jiang Lin did not agree immediately, but instead called out Feng Lixiao. After Feng Lixiao appeared, he immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times and nine times before speaking: "Master, my strength is no longer enough for you to control. Please give me some time." "Go." Jiang Lin nodded, waved his hand to open a chaotic hole leading to the underworld, and sent Feng Lixiao in. This scene made Sha Litian even more friendly and kind towards Feng Lixiao.

This is what Jiang Lin wanted. Feng Lixiao is the demon that he uses most easily. He can handle any situation and does things properly. In this case, Jiang Lin will naturally not be stingy when it comes to supporting the other party. Jiang Lin should have made the decision on his own, but he asked Feng Lixiao for his opinion. Although the outcome would not be different, the difference was quite big. "Mage, the little demon has offended you." After Sha Litian bowed respectfully, he turned into a dark demonic aura and attached to the hem of Jiang Lin's Taoist robe. Jiang Lin walked towards the Temple of the Goddess. When he arrived in front of the Goddess Temple, Jiang Lin suddenly stopped. At the entrance of the Goddess Temple, a graceful figure in red stood there. "Master, long time no see." Tu Shanyu smiled charmingly and generously, and winked at Jiang Lin playfully. "Why is Daoist Fellow Tushan here?" Jiang Lin asked with some surprise. Logically speaking, Huashan and Tushan language should have nothing to do with each other. "Um……" Tu Shanyu pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "I have been so quiet that I want to find something to do, so I came to my grandmother for help." "But now, there is really no vacancy for the time being, so the ancestor found His Majesty Shaohao, and His Majesty appointed me to manage Huashan on his behalf." Jiang Lin blinked in surprise when he heard that. Should we say that she is worthy of being the most favored little princess of Tushan in the contemporary era? In order to find something to do, she actually had to ask two human emperors for help. Huashan was originally the fiefdom of His Majesty Shaohao when he was in seclusion. This power still exists until now, and no one would interfere. Unexpectedly, it fell on Tushanyu's head. How great is this power to govern the fiefdom on behalf of Shaohao? In Huashan, even the Great Emperor of Xiyue has to listen to Tushan's words on all matters concerning people. Because Tushan Yu represents the Human Emperor, the Great Heavenly Venerable will not interfere with this power. After all, the three realms today are governed jointly by humans and heaven. "Fellow Daoist Tushan, is this for me?" Jiang Lin suddenly asked a somewhat narcissistic question. Tu Shanyu nodded straightforwardly and said with a smile: "I guess the Taoist priest's work in Huashan will not be completed in a short time, so I will find a regular person to help." "No matter what the Taoist priest wants to deal with, I think this flag of mine that can be traced back to the two emperors can still be used."

"Master, you may not know that for this position, I almost had a fight with Xiaobai and Xiaohei." Jiang Lin blinked and realized that the Xiaobai and Xiaohei she was referring to were Bai Suzhen and Tan Ruo, and Tu Shanyu was Xiaohong. "Fellow Daoist, perhaps in a past life, I did have a cause and effect with you, but now, I have never thought about it, it's really..." Jiang Lin said somewhat bitterly. "It doesn't matter. You and I are both immortals now, and immortality is within our reach. I have plenty of time to wait, and the Taoist priest also has some time to make a choice." Tu Shanyu didn't care, instead she smiled and comforted him. Jiang Lin nodded and was about to speak, but suddenly he felt his whole body sink. ‘Buzz! ! ’ Under the sudden inexplicable pressure, the Precious Lotus Lantern on Jiang Lin's body was ignited, and a layer of green flame enveloped him. Tu Shanyu's expression suddenly changed, and a shadow of the Jiuzhou Cauldron appeared around his body. Lingbao protects his master spontaneously! There is only one possibility, that is... The natural pressure alone made Jiang Lin and Tu Shanyu worry about their lives! 'boom! ’ The flame of the Precious Lotus Lantern suddenly flourished. In the Goddess Temple, Yang Chan walked out with a solemn expression, holding the Precious Lotus Lantern and protecting the three of them. "It's so sudden..." After recovering from the initial pressure, Jiang Lin looked up at the sky with a sneer on his face. The white gloves were burned by Jiang Lin, so the next person to be tracked down is naturally the real culprit. But unexpectedly, before Jiang Lin could investigate, the other person showed up on his own. "Amitabha." In the void, the faint sound of Zen chanting was heard. I saw a Buddha wearing a platinum robe and with a solemn appearance coming on a lotus platform. This Buddha has a halo of light behind his head, and the pure and wonderful light spreads all over the earth. The whole body is covered with Buddha light, manifesting the light of wisdom, transparent light, and immeasurable light. It illuminates the infinite Buddha lands in the ten directions for 250 yojanas in all directions. "I am a poor monk, Mahasthamaprapta." The Buddha looked down at the three people, his face showing neither sadness nor joy. "I have come here specially to invite Master Jiang to enter Nirvana." (End of this chapter)
