Too much fruit

Chapter 857 Change the world
The rightful owner has finally arrived.

Daojun and Ye Tathagata are the biggest enemies of the awakened ones’ advancement.

Others would not risk everything for this, even the Heavenly King would leave if he really thought it was impossible. However, the conflict between these two and the enlightened one cannot be reconciled and will not be eased.

Karma Tathagata is worthy of being another enlightened one. His attainment in the law of cause and effect is equal to that of the enlightened one. Although it was not he who was promoted, he leveraged cause and effect and started the promotion ceremony on behalf of the enlightened one.

'Or, in Daoguo's judgment, these two people are originally one, and the will of Karma Tathagata is the will of the Awakened One. 'Jiang Li looked at this scene and already felt that it was difficult.

"Karma Tathagata." The white-robed layman under the Bodhi tree spoke.

“Karma Tathagata?”

A figure in a black robe walked over slowly, "Who is Karma Tathagata? Is it you? Or me?"

"If it's you, then who is the Awakened One?"

"If it's me, then who are you?"

Karma Tathagata slowly raised his head, the breeze blew through his hair, lifting the brim of his hat, revealing a face that was exactly the same as the Awakened One's.

"Who am I? Who are you?"

The evil sound gradually faded away, but the evil thoughts became more and more intense, circling around the hearts of everyone present, stirring up the doubts that were aroused at the moment.

Among the monks present, most of them were shocked when they saw two identical faces.

There are many ways to impersonate others in this world, but they still believed it directly. Not only because the evil thoughts aroused their minds, but also because the similarities between Karma Tathagata and the enlightened one... no, it should be said that they are the same.

It's not just the appearance that's the same, but the existence that's the same.

When they face each other, it is just like looking in a mirror. Even if the colors of their clothes are different, it is difficult to tell the real one from the fake one.

"This..." The Sunlight Bodhisattva's face twitched and he screamed, "How is this possible?"

Guanyin looked at the Awakened One and said solemnly, "Master, we need an explanation."

"There is also the matter of Manjusri Buddha friend," Tan Wuwei continued, "Master, Manjusri Buddha friend died at the hands of the Grand Duke of Zhou, but now this person has appeared openly in Lingtai Mountain. Please explain the reason, Master."

The relationship between Karma Tathagata and the Awakened One is the biggest killer move. When Karma Tathagata reveals his face, the Awakened One's position as the first seat suffers the greatest impact.

Many monks were already distracted by evil thoughts, and when they heard the news, they looked like they were going to collapse.

As the supreme leader of the Buddhist country, his significance is not only the pinnacle of power, but also the pinnacle of faith. Even if the enlightened one does not practice the method of seduction, many people still respect him.

This is the greatest characteristic of religious power. As the highest power, it also carries the greatest degree of trust.

When this trust and belief are shattered, some people will collapse, some will be angry, and some will be completely disheartened. Among them are opponents of the enlightened one, as well as people under the command of the two bodhisattvas. It must be said that the effect is very good.

Although monks below the fourth rank cannot influence the situation, they may be able to influence the state of mind of the enlightened one.

Once the awakened one's state of mind is flawed, he will be at a disadvantage in the subsequent confrontation. In more serious cases, he will fail in his promotion and may even be invaded by the true spirit of the Tathagata.

When Tathagata was attaining enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, Mara tried every means to attack his mind but to no avail. If the enlightened one wavered, it would mean that he was invaded by the devil and was doomed to fail.

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Jiang Li spoke first, "The reason? It's very simple. I had already discussed with the enlightened one that Da Zhou and the Buddhist Kingdom would establish diplomatic relations and become brotherly countries. The Buddhist Dharma could be introduced to Da Zhou, but it was necessary to abide by the laws of Da Zhou. But Manjusri had evil ambitions and wanted to kill people. He had already become a heretic. So, I helped the Buddhist Kingdom get rid of him."

Anyway, this Buddhist kingdom is going to belong to Jiang. In order to defend his own Buddhist kingdom, Jiang Li will of course speak up and accept the attacks from Guanyin and Tan Wuwei.

As soon as these words were spoken, Manjusri was directly labeled as a heretic.

You see, you messed up a good thing and started killing people. This is no longer an ordinary violation of the precepts and must be dealt with severely.

"So, my Buddhist country should thank Jiang Sikong." Guanyin said coldly.

"Amitabha, you're welcome," Jiang Li put his hands together and said, "In fact, I also know a little about Buddhism. As for this kind of person who goes against Buddhism, I will definitely not sit idly by and watch."

While speaking, Jiang Li looked at the two white-robed masters with a smile. What was the meaning of his words...
If these two were also people who went against Buddhism, Jiang Sikong would not mind getting rid of them for the sake of his Buddhist kingdom.

After this interruption, the topic seemed to shift to another direction.

Whether it was Jiang Sikong saying that he believed in Buddhism, or the establishment of diplomatic relations between the Great Zhou and the Buddhist Kingdom, it was enough to shock everyone's mind again.

Seeing that the topic was about to be completely diverted, Sunlight Bodhisattva stood up angrily and shouted, "Master, what is your relationship with Karma Tathagata?"

"Huh?"

Sun Wukong's eyes flickered with golden light as he looked at this fourth-grade Bodhisattva of the Buddhist Kingdom.

The Sunlight Bodhisattva brought the contradiction back on track. The white-robed layman under the Bodhi tree was always looking at the Karma Tathagata. After hearing this, he slowly said, "I am you, you are me, you and I will eventually become one."

Finally, the affirmative words caused an uproar among the crowd, and the evil thoughts became materialized, intensifying the distracting thoughts in everyone's heart.

The monks were either happy or sad, angry or hateful. Whether they were against the enlightened one or supported him, the other side of their hearts was aroused and their emotions got out of control.

Even Wei Tuo and Guangli, who had already known about this, almost lost control of their minds due to their worry. They could not help but take action and kill Ye Tathagata.

However, the heart of the enlightened one is unmoved by the eight winds. No matter what others do, their state of mind cannot be affected. They just stare at Karma Tathagata calmly.

"It all comes down to one..."

Karma Tathagata whispered these four words and laughed, "Good! You and I have been separated for a long time, and it is time for us to be reunited."

The Lord of the Fire House Buddha Hell also sat cross-legged. A black lotus appeared out of thin air, supporting his body to float up and level with the enlightened one sitting on the Vajra Seat.

The two men were ten feet apart, both sitting cross-legged, their bodies motionless, with Buddha's light rising from them.

The Buddha's light was seen coming out from the self-aware one, and the dark light was seen coming out from the karma Tathagata. When the two collided, there was no sign of incompatibility, but instead they suddenly merged into one.

The heaven and earth changed, the sun disappeared behind the haze, and the Buddha's land turned into a dark scene in the blink of an eye.

It changed from a peaceful place to a desolate area, and everyone present felt the lotus platform beneath them sink slightly and into the ground.

Afterwards, the heaven and earth trembled violently, and suddenly a strong wind arose and a heavy rain came. The violent wind and rain hit everyone, but were bounced back by the protective true qi, making a crisp sound.

"This rain is real." Yu Shi Yuanjun looked at the pouring rain and raised her eyebrows.

She has been the rain master in the Taiping Sect for decades, and now she has been promoted to Yinglong, who controls the celestial phenomena. She can tell at a glance whether the wind and rain are real or fake.

"As long as Karma Tathagata wants it, this wind and rain can be real."

Jiang Li's spiritual sense was also sensing the wind and rain. While investigating its root cause, the sound came through the sound of the storm.

Turning the virtual into the real, confusing the real and the virtual, changing the heaven and earth in the blink of an eye, as if recreating a small world, the methods of Karma Tathagata are inconceivable to those of the fourth grade, and even most of the third grade.

The wind and rain poured down, the water in the earth rose, and in an instant it flooded the hills and covered the mountains.

The lotus platform on which Jiang Li and others were sitting slowly floated up, rising and falling with the waves, while the other monks fell into the water. Although they had great cultivation, they shouted for help in the wind and waves like ordinary people.

"Ow—"

A white dragon rose into the sky. It was Guangli Bodhisattva who appeared in the form of a dragon. He moved gracefully and was about to rescue the monk who fell into the water.

But before he could wade into the water, the world suddenly changed.

The wind and rain disappeared, the water disappeared, and the world changed from a flooded swamp to towering mountains, with lush vegetation on the mountains.

"boom--"

There was a loud noise in the air, and the Awakened One and Karma Tathagata appeared in the air at some point, still ten feet apart. They each sat cross-legged in the air, their bodies motionless. One of them had a Bodhi tree behind him, and the other had a black lotus platform under his seat.

The Buddha and the devil, the invisible aura collided through the air, and countless scenes appeared in the air like mirages.

"Wow!"

There was a sudden sound of water, and the towering mountains were suddenly replaced by a dark scene. All that could be seen was flowing water. It seemed as if the world had changed in the blink of an eye, with the mountains turning into the sea, and everyone fell into the deep sea.

This time, even Jiang Li and others felt the heavy water pressure, but Jiang Li just turned his hand and the water pressure disappeared. The people around him still sat on the lotus platform, watching this incredible confrontation.

"The Enlightened One is also good at transforming the virtual into the real. The Mara Sword Canon of the Tathagata is actually created based on the Enlightened One's skills. In terms of space, the head of the Buddha Kingdom also has the Buddha Kingdom in his palm."

Jiang Li looked at the two figures confronting each other in the deep sea and said, "Of course, the enlightened ones have ways to break the illusion of reality. However, Karma Tathagata is now relying on the Dao Fruit of the Great Freedom God."

With the help of Daoguo, who will be on top and who will be on the bottom?

As if in response to Jiang Li's words, the deep sea changed again.

From the unknown depth of the water to the boundless grassland, and then there was a sky fire, countless meteors fell, burning the earth. Suddenly, the flames turned into flowers, and the land was full of spring.

The Awakened One and the Karma Tathagata confronted each other in the air, and the surrounding world kept changing, from mountains to seas, to plains, from water to fire, and then to towering forests, and in an instant all life disappeared and turned into wilderness.

All kinds of scenes appeared with the collision of the two people's qi. The heaven and earth changed several times. In the end, the surroundings suddenly turned into a sky thousands of miles high. Most of the monks fell under the strong wind at the extreme sky.

At the same time, the collision between the two sides seemed to have finally reached its limit. The sky was torn apart, and cracks expanded like a spider web. Bloody thunder flashed, roared, and echoed in the sky.
