Datang unsigned for six years, only to know that it is Journey to the West

Su Chen could clearly feel that Tathagata had murderous intentions towards him.

Now that his face has been torn apart, and he is immortal.

Su Chen will not sit still.

The first strike is strong, and the second strike suffers.

Su Chen was thoughtful, "With my current strength, if I face Tathagata head-on, I will definitely be at a disadvantage. Even if I have Qingyun, it's not safe."

"If you want to go to the next level, or have a counterweight to the Tathagata, or even the entire Buddhism, you must become stronger."

"Before I become stronger, it is still necessary to add some obstacles to Buddhism."

Su Chen made calculations and opened his eyes after a while.

He couldn't figure out why the Tathagata came here, let alone what he had done in the past few months.

but.

He could figure out that the Buddhism of Datang was thriving.

Originally, under his suppression, the Buddhism of the Great Tang Dynasty should have declined, even if Xuanzang went to the West to learn Buddhist scriptures, it only slightly restored the situation.

It doesn't help.

but.

After Tathagata came, Buddhism has a positive trend.

"It must be what Tathagata did, but no matter what he did, I will destroy it and let Datang continue to suppress Buddhism."

"Normally speaking, the disputes between the three religions and the nine streams will all point to the surface, and finally affect the ruler and make the emperor change his religious beliefs. Now that Li Shimin's whole family believes in me, I can just take advantage of it."

Su Chen could do whatever he wanted, but he wanted to know exactly what Tathagata had been doing these past few months, so that he could be targeted to block him.

"Master, are you alright?"

"Asshole, Master is sure to be fine."

"That's the Tathagata, damn it, he dared to threaten Master, it's too arrogant."

"Master, let's go to Lingshan."

Li Bai, Su Qilin, Su Ao, Ao Lie and others all came, only the six-eared macaque was in the closed door and did not appear.

They were all angry and nervous.

Yuan Tiangang said: "The laymen halfway up the mountain are panic-stricken, and they all want to see the patriarch."

Su Chen said: "Tell them, everything will continue as usual. If they stay, they will be disciples of the outer sect. If they want to leave, they will not be stopped. But from now on, they are not allowed to use my Yunyuanshan's skills and supernatural powers."

There have always been lay Buddhists in Yunyuan Mountain, and because of Su Chen, they have gained a lot.

In the past, they were basically mortals, but after Su Chen became a Da Luo Jinxian, he led a wave of them, making them immortal, and then when he became a peak Da Luo, he led a wave of them.

Nowadays, basically the weakest have peak celestial beings, and they are basically masters of real celestial beings.

Su Chen only had simple constraints on them, and gave them some exercises and spells to cultivate, so that they had enough strength.

Therefore, these people all call themselves laymen of Yunyuan Mountain, and they also obey Yunyuan Mountain's instructions, and often climb the mountain to do things within their ability.

Sometimes he would even go out with Yuan Tiangang, Li Bai and others to practice killing demons and demons.

Of course, they have to spend one or two days every month to go down the mountain and hang the pot to help the world.

To help the world and serve the people, but under the banner of Yunyuan Mountain.

This has prepared Yunyuan Mountain to spread its branches and leaves in various places, and laid a solid foundation.

These people have some advantages, that is, there are enough people, and they don't need to spend too much energy and effort to cultivate!

but.

There is also a disadvantage, that is, their loyalty is in the middle, and they may abandon Yunyuan Mountain at any time!

Now is the time to test their loyalty. If they are reliable, then they can be made outer disciples.

On the contrary, they can get some support.

Of course, Sun Simiao and others will be automatically upgraded to inner disciples, and they are still different from them.

But just staying is not enough, Su Chen plans to attack all Buddhists in Datang territory next.

After Tathagata came, Buddhism flourished. He must have supported many people in Buddhism and left some behind.

Such a move would be dangerous.

However, it has to be done.

Su Chen can't do it himself, otherwise the Buddhist sect will find an opportunity, and then they will directly kill and suppress it.

Today's Tathagata came from an unknown teacher, if Su Chen suppressed these Buddhist temples himself, he would definitely find a reason for the other party.

Therefore.

He can't move.

But those laymen can, their identities are separated from Yunyuan Mountain, if they really attack Buddhism, no one can say anything.

Su Chen won't tell them clearly that they are going to deal with Buddhism, but he will let them deal with it!

After the decision was made, Su Chen immediately asked Yuan Tiangang to tell the laymen that Huang Daxian and Xiong Wei also came forward.

soon.

Su Chen saw more than a dozen streams of light flying away from the mountainside of Yunyuan Mountain. It lasted for half an hour, and probably hundreds of streams of light flew away.

He understands that these are lay Buddhists who intend to leave, and after they leave, not only will they not be allowed to use the supernatural powers and spells they learned from Yunyuan Mountain, but they will also not be allowed to step into the land of Chang'an!

Make things clear and tell these people, in the future, see you in the world, and you won't know each other!

Yuan Tiangang will report soon.

"Master Patriarch, after walking for more than 300, there are still about 800 people left, and the remaining [-] people are basically from before."

The so-called what was there before is that the last time Su Chen broke through to the peak of Daluo Jinxian, it caused a great change in the world and attracted countless divine powers.

As a result, countless people ascended to the throne, Qin Qiong, Wei Chigong, Cheng Yaojin and other Dukes of the Tang Dynasty basically ascended.

Therefore, the Great Tang had the Heavenly Immortal Duke, but after these people became immortals, they basically retired at home and became Qin Tianzhu behind the Great Tang.

Li Shimin also worried that their influence was too great, surpassing the royal family, so he also deliberately let them live in seclusion.

Even people like Hou Junji and others who have great ambitions have no choice but to retire and let their juniors stand in front of the stage.

because.

After that time, Li Shimin specially invited Sun Simiao, Li Bai, Yan Liben and others back to Daming Palace.

At that time, all the ascended princes were invited to release their military power with a glass of wine. Everyone honestly handed over their military power and retreated behind the scenes.

Such a threat, but also worried that they would feel resentment, Li Shimin asked for the Celestial Art from Yunyuan Mountain, so that these Celestial Lords can practice.

After becoming a fairy, he practiced martial arts again, and he could live forever, and most of the time he went to the sky to travel in the clouds.

Such a freehand life, even the extremely powerful Hou Junji has no opinion.

At the time of that ascension, there were already more than a hundred lay Buddhists in Yunyuan Mountain, and three to four hundred people came one after another.

They all came here because of the reputation, and now they didn't enjoy much dividends, and they might have lost their lives. Naturally, they were not happy and left one after another.

Su Chen didn't have the slightest nostalgia for this.

Quickly said: "Okay, tell everyone that they are already my outer disciples of Yunyuan Mountain, give them the right to walk behind the mountain, teach them spells and supernatural powers, and you brothers will do it for you."

Then he said: "As for you, all of you are inner disciples, the treatment... actually remains the same, basically there is no difference, it just sounds nice."

Everyone laughed, and everyone understood that Su Chen treated them no differently than he treated his own disciples.

At least they are still different from those laymen, today's inner disciples.

Although they don't particularly care about this identity gap, if there is, they can still satisfy their vanity!
Su Chen said: "Tell them, we have some grievances with the Buddhist sect, and when we go down the mountain to practice in the future, be careful of the Buddhist sect's revenge."

Everyone was stunned.

Buddhism in the world is nothing to be afraid of, even if it is Buddhism, do you dare to take revenge on them? !

but.

After thinking about it, they noticed the meaning of revenge Su Chen said, and all of them laughed immediately.

Li Bai said with a smile: "Master, don't worry, we will live in peace with Buddhism and never cause trouble, but if they provoke us, we will fight back appropriately."

Fei Lian came to the father and son and said: "Let's fight back appropriately."

Su Chen said: "Be honest, you two, I have taught you some magical powers, practice hard, and don't neglect."

The two quickly bowed their hands and said yes.

After finishing all this, Su Chen said again: "Send someone to ask the emperor about the recent changes in Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty."

Because of the Tathagata, Su Chen could be counted as good at the Datang Buddhist Temple, but the specific situation is unknown.

And he wanted specific information, no one knew better than Li Shimin.

Yuan Tiangang was going to do it immediately, Su Chen ordered: "Bring a fairy peach there, the emperor is old, I'm afraid he won't remember anything."

Yuan Tiangang understood that Su Chen was not afraid that Li Shimin would not be able to remember things, but that Li Shimin, as the emperor, would weigh his relationship with the Buddhist sect, thus swaying from side to side, so he couldn't say it clearly.

Give a fairy peach, let Li Shimin live a few more years, and let him enjoy the sweetness, so he knows who to hang out with.

After finishing this, Su Chen looked to the west with serious eyes.

"In this way, I can be regarded as completely immortal with Buddhism. The Tathagata's retreat this time is entirely because the teacher is unknown, and I made things bigger, and he doesn't want to be blamed."

"However, he will definitely find opportunities, so I must become stronger."

Su Chen spread out his hand, and the Dragon Cauldron appeared in his palm, which was his confidence to become stronger.

Afterwards, Su Chen began to practice, and he wanted to improve his strength as quickly as possible.

He has already communicated with heaven and earth, he can use the merit of faith to cultivate, but not much, it just speeds up the cultivation speed by dozens of times.

Even so, it's a big help.

In addition, Su Chen also mainly used it to temper the physical body, trying to improve the Hunyuan golden body as soon as possible.

However, this is a long-term process.

After all, even if there is merit, it cannot be achieved overnight.

Nuwa has boundless merits of mending the sky and creating man, but it took 10,000+ years for her merits to be sanctified.

From this we can see that sanctification is a very difficult process.

In the secret room, Su Chen officially began to practice.

He must seize every minute and every second to improve his mana cultivation base and temper his physical body in place.

It is only half a step away from Zuwu's physical body, and the power of merit is commendable, and now the opportunity to force the Tathagata away is rare.

Hurry up and practice.

In addition, Su Chen took out all the magic weapons and tempered them with the power of merit.

With this accumulation, his mastery of the magic weapon has also reached its peak.

However, you can't let go of cultivation, and you can't let go of unraveling lottery for others, because that's Su Chen's foundation.

It can also be used to obtain huge mana, and even rewards.

For this reason, Su Chen unwrapped lotteries for people during the day, and practiced at night to improve his cultivation and strengthen his physical body.

For things with the outside world, it is temporarily ignored.

but.

However, his disciples have already taken action one by one, going out more frequently than before.

When going down the mountain to practice, I specifically asked for trouble from the Buddhist sect. As expected, there are many masters in the Buddhist sect, and many Buddhist eminent monks have the power of immortals.

It's just that most of these people seem to have a little more cultivation out of thin air, and they don't have a certain understanding of their own strength.

Facing the disciples of the outer sect of Yunyuan Mountain who went down the mountain to practice, they could only be abused, but there are also real masters in the Buddhist sect. Their strength even surpassed that of real immortals and reached a higher level.

Once these arhats make a move, it will be fatal to the outer disciples of Yunyuan Mountain.

to this end.

Yun Yuanshan went out to train his disciples, which caused a lot of damage to the Buddhist sect at first, causing heavy losses to the Buddhist sect; when the Buddhist sect invited Arhat King Kong, it became difficult.

However, the disciples of Yunyuan Mountain did not suffer heavy losses because of this, after all, they are also capable.

It just became more difficult, and Buddhism can't send Vajra Arhats to the territory of Datang.

Otherwise, his learning from the Western Paradise will become meaningless, and it may cause people to misunderstand that Buddhism wants to break the rules set by the saints.

Immortals and above are not allowed to interfere in human affairs at will, but if mortals become immortals, it is possible in the near future.

These outer sect disciples are all mortals from Yunyuan Mountain who became immortals, and not long after becoming immortals, they are all willing to stay in the human world, and no one can say what they will do to the human world in the near future.

just.

Fomen is more sad.

There are not many strong people in the world. Originally, after several months of hard work by Tathagata, they have gained many strong people, and even more believers.

However, as soon as Yunyuan Mountain made a move, from the strong, to the officials, to the choice of the believers, within a month of Buddhism, more than [-]% of the eminent monks were lost, and more than [-]% of the temples were ruined.

The loss was so great that the Tathagata of Lingshan in the West knew about it, and they were so angry that they almost came over from Lingshan again.

In the end, it was the Buddhas who persuaded them, but they did not act.

I chose to continue to wait and see the changes for another month, and in the next month, compared with the peak of the Buddhist temples in the Tang Dynasty, there are only one-third left, and even in some areas, the Buddhist temples have been reduced to street rats, and everyone shouts and beats them. .

The disciples of the outer sect of Yunyuan Mountain who were walking down the mountain showed miracles one by one, and under the banner of Yunyuan Mountain, they hung pots to help the world and ran the Buddhism to death.

and.

The Tang officials seemed to sense Su Chen's intentions. Li Shimin did not directly order to target the Buddhist sect, but Prince Li Zhi directly ordered some officials with close contacts to use their power and influence to attack the Buddhist sect.

After all, he is the crown prince. With Li Shimin's acquiescence, Li Zhi's order is very important, making it difficult for many Buddhist temples in the Tang Dynasty to survive.

Some people even suggested that Buddhism is not involved in production and should be taxed on Buddhism, but it was still rejected by the spokesperson of Buddhism.

In short, under the operation of various forces, within two or three months since Tathagata came to Yunyuan Mountain, the number of Buddhist temples has decreased by two-thirds.

It is a heavy loss.

However, at this point, the disciples of Yunyuan Mountain did not dare to go too far, and could only slowly consume the Buddhist sect to death.

because.

Once Yunyuan Mountain went to more than [-] outer disciples to cast down demons for the people along the East Sea, intending to use this opportunity to accumulate boundless merit.

The monsters that Naihe encountered were very powerful and terrifying, and he easily swallowed them all, killing him all at once.

When Li Bai and others arrived, the monster had already run away. This time, Yunyuan Mountain suffered heavy losses.

The matter reached Su Chen's ears, and Su Chen made some calculations and realized that it was a method of Buddhism.

They deliberately released the monsters to wreak havoc in the East China Sea, attracting people from Yunyuan Mountain, and then let the monsters kill them.

It's simple and crude, but it works.

Su Chen finally decided to let the disciples of Yunyuan Mountain take their time, and not to be too hasty, because the number of people is so small that it can't exhaust the Buddhist sect.

If the Buddhist sect used this trick a few times, there would probably be no one left in Yunyuan Mountain.

And when Yunyuan Mountain slowed down, the Buddhist sect didn't continue to use this trick, after all they were also afraid of being discovered by others.

Once or twice is okay, if you use it too much and let others know, it will definitely damage the reputation of Buddhism.

At the critical moment of learning scriptures from the West, it is impossible for the Buddhist sect to do things that are detrimental to the reputation of the Buddhist sect.

Lingxiao Palace.

The Jade Emperor summoned all the immortals.

"Everyone, an old monster who was sealed for 1 years was born in the Eastern Sea of ​​the World. He ate 30 mortals and more than [-] outer disciples from Yunyuan Mountain."

"Who can tell me what happened, why the sealed monster was born, and dared to make trouble in the East China Sea so boldly?"

The Jade Emperor was very angry. The incident in the East China Sea was too serious. If it is not investigated clearly, people will be panicked and the impact will be bad.

However, the incident happened suddenly, and the old monster is now missing, and nothing can be found at all.

Zhao Gongming is the marshal of the Xuantan Department, responsible for arresting the murderer, and responsible for the pursuit of this incident.

He cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I found the old demon of the East China Sea in the Jiyuntan of the demon world, but he was beaten into a corpse."

"Using deduction magic, but can't find any clues, presumably it was a master who came forward and wiped out the old monster of the East China Sea. Looking at the traces of the fight, it is vaguely... the work of Buddhism."

Buddhism? !
All the immortals were taken aback.

Jade Emperor was also taken aback.

When did the Buddhist sect take so much care of the world and went to the hinterland of the demon world to hunt down and kill an old demon who did many evil things.

Moreover, that old demon has at least the strength of the peak of the Golden Immortal, with ruthless methods and many tricks, even the ordinary peak of the Golden Immortal may not be his opponent.

Buddhism must at least send out a stronger Taiyi Golden Immortal, or even a Daluo Golden Immortal, in order to be able to secure victory.

but.

To be able to do so secretly, I am afraid that it is Da Luo Jinxian who is dispatched.

It's just that the old demon of the East China Sea harmed the East China Sea and ate dozens of outer disciples from Yunyuan Mountain. Before Yunyuan Mountain had time to retaliate, the Buddhist sect was wiped out? !

There is an enmity between Buddhism and Yunyuan Mountain.

After all, he is the Jade Emperor, with superior IQ and extraordinary means, so he understood many things in an instant.

He thought about it, and said: "I just doubt what Buddhism did, is there any definite evidence?"

Zhao Gongming said: "No."

All the immortals were in an uproar.

The Jade Emperor said: "If there is no evidence, it may not be true. Even if it is, it also means that a Buddhist master happened to pass by and killed the monster."

All the immortals fell silent.

They were not stupid, and seemed to understand the meaning of the Jade Emperor's words.

It is very likely that the Buddhist sect had a grudge against Yunyuan Mountain, so they deliberately released the old demon to do evil in the East China Sea, and then attracted people from Yunyuan Mountain to go there, and finally let the old demon eat the disciples of Yunyuan Mountain.

In order to kill the people and destroy the corpses and traces, Fomen killed the old monster, but Zhao Gongming still found it.

However, this is a possibility.

It may also be that Yun Yuanshan did it deliberately, sacrificing dozens of disciples and pouring dirty water on Buddhism.

But at present, there is no such possibility. After all, no one in Yunyuan Mountain can destroy the old demon alone, and it also creates an illusion that it may be done by Buddhism.

Just because it's unlikely doesn't mean it can't.

Su Chen is very strong, if he makes a move himself, it is possible.

It's just that Su Chen spends all day in Yunyuan Mountain, solving lottery for people, this is well known.

What's more, even if Yunyuan Mountain wants to pour dirty water, after this incident, it is time to sue the heaven and Buddhism.

But Su Chen restrained his disciples and acted cautiously, making it clear that he was going to suffer from being dumb.

If dirty water is poured, this will not be the case.

That obviously suffered from being dumb, and there was nothing he could do.

The Jade Emperor said: "Okay, this matter is complicated, let Heavenly Master Ge Xuan investigate it carefully."

In fact, asking Ge Xuan to investigate is tantamount to nothing.

All the immortals knew about it, but they could do nothing about it.

After the dispersal.

Zhao Gongming and Ge Xuan went to visit the Jade Emperor.

Zhao Gongming said: "Your Majesty, this matter is probably done by Buddhism."

The Jade Emperor said: "Can't it be that Yunyuan Mountain did it deliberately in order to splash dirty water?"

Zhao Gongming said: "It's unlikely, after all, he didn't file a complaint, but endured it."

The Jade Emperor said: "It's unlikely, but it's possible."

Zhao Gongming had nothing to say.

Ge Xuan has some relationship with Su Chen, but he must also consider the interests of the Heavenly Court.

He said: "Your Majesty, it doesn't make much sense who did this."

"It is likely to be the grievance between Yunyuan Mountain and the Buddhist sect. There is really no need for us to get involved."

The Jade Emperor said with emotion: "Who would have thought that Su Tianwang has grown to such a degree."

Ge Xuandao: "A few months ago, he fought with the Tathagata, which was earth-shattering. I still vividly remember it."

The Jade Emperor also nodded, and then said: "The strength of the King of Heaven is a mystery. He should be the strength of the peak Daluo Jinxian, but he can compete with the Tathagata. I am afraid that he has the strength of a quasi-sage."

Both Zhao Gongming and Ge Xuan were shocked.

Ge Xuan hurriedly said: "There are quite a few immortals outside Yunyuan Mountain, and Lei's troop has also strengthened the inspection of Chang'an's territory, and I haven't seen any display of quasi-sage cultivation from him."

The Jade Emperor had a headache, and said: "I am also very strange, such a strength, but has not shown it, it is really unusual..."

suddenly.

An incredible idea flashed in the eyes of the Jade Emperor.

Looking up at the two old ministers, Ge Xuan is fine, Zhao Gongming is powerful and already a quasi-sage.

He also seemed to have thought of a possibility.

The two looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.

"No way?!"

The Jade Emperor was surprised and played charades.

Zhao Gongming said: "There is a possibility."

Ge Xuandao: "Your Majesty, Marshal Zhao, what's the matter?"

The two ignored him, Zhao Gongming cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, after conferring the gods, I was favored by heaven, and I was lucky enough to be a quasi-sage. I would like to enter the world for your majesty to find out!"

Ge Xuan said in shock: "Zhao Xuantan, you, you, are you going to test King Su?!"
