Chapter 697 Lingshan Conference
Chang'an City, Ganye Temple.

This was where the talented people in the palace gathered. After Li Shimin's death, the concubines without children were placed in Ganye Temple.

Because of the special status of this place, there are usually many monk soldiers guarding it.

Li Shimin ascended to heaven on a dragon. Before his departure, he issued several golden box edicts, one of which was about the appointment of Wu Zetian's daughter - to be a talented woman. So the beautiful Wu Meiniang naturally entered this temple.

She is of noble status and is usually protected by immortals and Buddhas, and no one in the entire temple dares to bully her.

Wu Meiniang naturally devoted herself to spiritual practice, and after several years on earth, she is now close to becoming a true immortal.

In the hall with black tiles and white walls, a statue of Guanyin suddenly walked down from the lotus platform.

Guanyin swept the willow branch lightly and transformed herself into a tall woman.

She looked around and saw a woman in blue walking slowly towards her.

Guanyin's eyes lit up, and she secretly praised: "What a fairy skin and icy bones, she is worthy of it."

"Here it is."

The woman transformed from Guanyin waved her hand gently.

Wu Meiniang nodded slightly and walked over.

"Cough cough."

Guanyin coughed and gave an approachable smile.

"Fellow Daoist, you should know who I am, right? I came here to invite you to go to Lingshan to participate in the Antian Conference."

Guanyin said politely.

"Will my master go?"

Wu Meiniang asked back.

The Heavenly Peace Conference at Lingshan in the West.

Rumor has it that there are a total of eight hundred positions, ten categories of the Zhoutian, heaven, earth, man, gods, ghosts, insects, scales, fur, and feathers.

The top-level celestial immortals, the next-level true immortals, and the lower-level earthly immortals and ghost immortals are all listed separately.

Jie Di, Vajra Arhat Bodhisattva, the Ten Hades, and the immortals from the upper cave are also involved.

However, the most important position here is one, of which there are only nine.

"nature."

The woman transformed by Guanyin told the truth: "How can we miss the Lord of the Netherworld?"

After Lin Dong refined Qingshan, he went to Lingshan to ask for a deity. It made sense that he was the Thunder Sound King Buddha who guarded the underworld.

The headless Qiushou Immortal has now turned to Taoism and become the leader of the Hongyang Sect. The Hongyang Sect has only one doctrine - that all beings are equal.

To truly pursue equality among all beings and spread the path of equality.

The unique doctrine caused the Hongyang Sect to launch one bloody massacre after another in the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

Regarding territory, many cities of the Tang Dynasty have fallen.

The followers of the sect wrapped a red scarf on their heads and were also called the Red Scarf Army. They truly fought against the local tyrants and distributed land to ordinary people.

Although the Red Turban Army was declared a cult by the imperial court, it still had the potential to start a prairie fire.

And King Sibi Buddha withdrew from the underworld and transferred his power to the human world.

Lin Dong filled in the missing piece of Buddhism and Taoism in the underworld.

He is revered as the new leader of the underworld by the gods and ghosts of heaven, earth, and mankind. His moral principle is different from that of Ksitigarbha, who will not become a Buddha until hell is empty.

Lin Dong’s doctrine—those who do evil must be punished!
Those who do evil must be punished.

Not only did he kill all the evil spirits and turn them into a ball of lightning, but he also seized a part of the authority of the Heavenly Court and killed evil spirits in the vast earth.

Eight hundred grass-headed gods, three thousand white-haired soldiers, and an organized group of killing soldiers were all transformed by him into the guardians of the Thunder God.

You can gain merits by acting on behalf of heaven and directly killing the evildoers.

The merits of the Heavenly Dao can allow them to directly improve themselves.

Temples of the Lord of the Underworld were also built one after another in the capital of the Tang Dynasty.

To some extent.

The world today has better public security than before.

Some officials in the Tang Dynasty were evil and oppressed the people.

For example, a county magistrate who is in charge of an area of ​​thousands of miles may make a wrong judgment.

The white-haired old mother personally cut off the head of her son's corpse and went to Lin Tianzun Temple to tell her grievances.

That night, the guardian god of thunder chopped the officials into charcoal.

Even with the protection of the Tang Dynasty's dragon energy, he could not escape the judgment of Lin Tianzun.

Such incidents are increasing.

Lin Dong’s reputation naturally soared. In hell, he called himself the Lord of the Netherworld, in Lingshan he was the Thunder King Buddha, and in heaven he was the Nine Heavens Thunder Ancestor and the Demon-Subduing Heavenly Lord!

His Dao Fruit is also constantly improving. Once he achieves the status of a Quasi-Saint, it will definitely be one of the highest achievements - those who do evil must be punished!
At this moment, Guanyin invites Wu Meiniang to go to Lingshan for a meeting.

Since they hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, Wu Meiniang naturally asked about Lin Dong.

After all, who would accept a disciple and then leave him alone for more than ten years?
"Is that so... I'll go then."

Wu Meiniang hesitated for a moment before responding.

"good."

Guanyin nodded, and with a wave of her hand, a golden door appeared in the air.

Wu Meiniang blinked, but without hesitation she took a step forward.

……

On top of Lingshan Mountain, the golden palace reaches into the sky.

The sky was filled with golden clouds, the light of immortals and Buddhas illuminated one side, the golden sand sea was swaying gracefully, and the dragons were howling in the sky and the wind was rustling.

Wu Meiniang sat with her knees crossed and saw many immortals and Buddhas sitting on the golden lotuses around her.

Relying on her qualifications from her previous life and her status as Lin Dong's disciple, she was in a relatively high position. With her cultivation level not even reaching that of a True Immortal, she was ranked second.

The second seat usually belongs to Bodhisattvas, and can only be enjoyed by powerful people at the same level as celestial immortals.

Wu Meiniang sat on the golden lotus and looked down. She saw the arhats, monks, and Taoists at the foot of the mountain crowded like ants, and converged towards Lingshan like a river.

call!
The Dragon King's roar blew the falling ceiling flowers all over the sky. The flowers were filled with an intoxicating fragrance. If an ordinary earthly immortal was here, just by smelling the fragrance of the falling ceiling flowers, his cultivation would increase by a hundred years.

Rumble.

Suddenly, the sound of a golden bell rang out above the Lingshan Mountain, and the Arhats and Jiedis in various robes all looked serious and solemn.

The Great Emperor Zhenwu walked over wearing a black robe, carrying a long sword on his back, and carrying a Yin-Yang mirror, a magic bell and many other objects.

The Great Emperor Zhenwu walked slowly, and when he reached the third seat at the second table, he sat down at his leisure.

Just to the side of the Great Emperor Zhenwu, the Buddhist Bodhisattva Mahasthamaprapta inadvertently raised his eyebrows.

Zhenwu sat calmly and looked at Bodhisattva Mahasthamaprapta indifferently.

Dashizhi frowned, but ultimately said nothing.

The position behind Mahasthamaprapta was originally prepared for Manjushri and Samantabhadra, but unexpectedly it is now occupied by Zhenwu.

"I haven't seen you for a few years. Brother Dao has made great progress in his cultivation."

A voice came slowly, and the headless Siva King Buddha sat down in front of Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva neither fast nor slow.

Ranked first among the two seats, with the cultivation level of half-step quasi-saint.

The voice of King Sibi was not loud, but it made the people present tremble inadvertently.

It is a terrifying Taoist fruit that can overturn the world and turn it upside down, and now it has taken shape.

"I should call you the King of Buddhas, and you are also the leader of Hongyang Sect?"

The Great Emperor Zhenwu asked softly, ignoring the Bodhisattva Mahasthamaprapta who was standing between the two of them.

As a result, Dashizhi’s face became even gloomier.

What these words actually mean is that they are also asking about the headless lion's position, whether it represents Taoism or Buddhism.

"Of course it is Master Hongyang. Now I am passing on the Hongyang Dharma. I wish that all people in the world will be equal."

The former Qiushou Immortal, now the leader of the Hongyang Sect, said lightly, and the atmosphere on the scene became increasingly depressing.

It's just because the Taoist fruit of Hongyang Sect Leader is not just against the human world. The premise of equality of all beings is that there are no immortals, no gods, and no monsters.

No matter who the saints in the heavens are, they will not allow the Green Lion Monster to attain enlightenment.

Otherwise, all the immortals, Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, demons and monsters will disappear.

Only in this way can there be equality in the world.

The Qiu-headed Immortal Green Lion Monster is destined to be on a road to failure. The reason why he is so high in momentum now is only because the current situation is special and no one pays attention to him.

The real chess players in the sky are all planning the affairs of the Dark Sky.

When the saint comes to his senses, there will be no place for the Hongyang Sect.

"good."

Zhenwu nodded and spoke slowly.

When he was taken away by Emperor Gou Chen with a sleeve of his robe, his supernatural powers that could reach the heavens and the earth not only did not weaken, but became even stronger.

Emperor Gou Chen could even tolerate the fake Emperor Zi Wei, so how could he not tolerate a tiny traitor like Zhen Wu?

Attacking the Great Dark Sky is imperative.

It is time to use people. No matter what kind of demon it is, the heaven will no longer control it. Instead, it will be given a position directly, allowing it to go to the Great Dark Heaven and expand its territory when the time is right.

A rising desire to fight is brewing in the entire Three Realms.

boom.

The door of the conference hall was opened again, and a bloody energy coming from the underworld swept across half of the sacred mountain.

The Bull Demon King wears ferocious bone armor and carries a blood-red sword - Abi - on his back.

A winged precious coin sits on its shoulder and it steps into Lingshan.

All the immortals, Buddhas and saints looked at him sideways.

"The Demon Emperor is here."

"Welcome to the Demon Emperor."

Following the arhat's call, all the immortals and Buddhas present stood up and bowed to the old cow.

The Bull Demon King walked towards the seat at a steady pace without looking around.

The Bodhisattva Mahasthamaprapta gritted his teeth, but in the end he bowed to the Bull Demon King.

Treasure coins and money were flying in the air.

The Bull Demon King is no longer the Lord of Jilei Mountain who could be bullied by any ancient immortal.

Instead, he became the monarch of the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons and the great demon emperor in heaven - Demon Emperor.

The Bull Demon King unceremoniously landed at the last place, in ninth position.

The meeting place fell into a brief silence.

"You are the demon king, you can move up one position."

Emperor Gou Chen, who was fourth on the seat, spoke slowly.

Emperor Gou Chen, with a pair of wind and thunder wings and six star cores hanging around his neck, reminded.

Upon hearing this, the Bull Demon King nodded slightly and moved a golden lotus forward.

Then the scene was so quiet that only the breathing of the gods could be heard.

Some gods, such as the God of Fortune, Longevity and Happiness, smiled silently, while some Bodhisattvas and Arhats turned their heads away and did not even look at the Bull Demon King.

"At this Peaceful Heaven Conference, one of the Four Imperial Gods, Chengtian, followed the example of Hou Tu Huang Di, and the Southern Pole Changsheng Emperor was still absent. There are nine seats in total."

"They are the Buddha Shakyamuni, the World Honored One, the Great Emperor Ziwei of the North Pole, the Netherworld Master Lin Yuanjue, the Great Emperor Gou Chen of the South Pole, the Great Master Yi Qi of Xuandu, the Great Lord of the Great Compassion, the Fairy Lady Yunxiao, the Ancient Emperor of the West Pole, the Great Lord Maitreya, the Buddha from the East..."

As the Venerable Kashyapa beside Sakyamuni called out the names, all the immortals, Buddhas, demons and monsters at the Antian Society became serious.

The highest position among them is naturally the Buddha of Lingshan.

The fake Ziwei is listed below.

Next is Lin Dong, the most popular leader of the Netherworld.

Naturally, Bull Demon King, as the representative of the demon clan, got a seat and called himself the Peerless Bull Demon.

In the next order, Xuandu represents the Supreme Taoist Ancestor, Taiyi upholds the teachings of the Yuanshi lineage, and Yunxiao naturally represents the Tongtian Sage of the Jiejiao.

Although the specific whereabouts of the three saints are now difficult to find in the Three Realms, even the corpse of Yuanshi Tianzun collapsed in the Tianwai Tian Universe.

However, even so, a seat was reserved for them.

The Buddha from the East was a quasi-saint who opened up the Pure Land of Bliss, so naturally he relied on his strength to win a seat.

These nine people basically represent all living beings in the three realms and the strongest fighting force among the ten categories of the Zhoutian.

For example, Buddhism has saint-level guides such as Zhunti.

The quasi-saint level Vairocana Tathagata and Dipamkara Buddha.

The demon clan has the great sage Kong Xuan.

The Great Golden Immortal of Taoism, Jade Ding Zhenren who has the combat power of a quasi-saint, and Yang Jian who is at the peak of the Heaven-Swallowing Immortal level are all first-rate.

The Demon Sect also has the Demon Lord Wutan who rules the world.

This kind of immortals and Buddhas were not included in the Antian Society's invitation list for various reasons.

Of course, there is no place for them at the table.

However, even if such people do not come, who would dare to underestimate them?

"Before we discuss the matter, I, the guardian deity Kasyapa, will first explain the rules of the meeting..."

Just when Venerable Kashyapa kept chattering.

boom.

Another extremely loud heat wave entered the conference, and a thunder force that was so violent that it could not be degraded was vented in the sky.

"Everyone, please forgive me for being late. I am really sorry."

The majestic voice spread throughout Lingshan.

"Master is here."

Wu Meiniang, who was sitting at the second table, couldn't help but feel happy.

There were bursts of wind and thunder in the air.

A lifelike red dragon carried Lin Dong to Lingshan. A figure on the dragon that was thousands of feet long jumped down and hit the golden lotus like a thunderbolt.

"Amitabha, I have seen the Buddha King Leiyin."

The Buddha from the East appeared on the ninth golden lotus at some point. Although he was clearly inferior to the Bull Demon King, he was not angry at all and greeted Lin Dong with a smile.

"Hahaha. Meet the old Buddha."

Lin Dong greeted in a heroic manner.

The big red dragon in the sky transformed into a nine-foot tall man, standing behind Lin Dong, with a lion nose and wide eyes, but he was very majestic just standing there.

Among the celestial beings, there is one who can pick up the word "Zhen" and can pick up nine stars in the sky and hold the authority of the dragon god in the sea - the Third Dragon Prince.

After passing through Yinjing Cave, Wuliang Mountain and Qingshan Mountain, after hundreds of years of sedimentation, the Third Prince Long stepped ahead of everyone else.

Prince Long San became Lin Dong's third celestial-level master after Kui Mulang and True Lord Black Wind.

Lin Dong looked around, only to find that the other golden lotuses were actually occupied one by one.

Behind Taiyi Zhenjun is Jiuling Yuansheng, and behind the fake Ziwei are the new Qisha, Tanlang and Wuqu.

Behind the Buddha coming from the East is Huang Mei'er.

The entire table was filled with people who had met Lin Dong before.

When Lin Dong shifted his gaze, the gods and Buddhas all nodded their heads. Until Lin Dong's gaze fell on Sakyamuni Buddha, Sakyamuni closed his eyes and said nothing.

Meanwhile, Kasyapa, who was standing beside him, stared at Lin Dong expressionlessly.

Lin Dong chuckled at him, then sat down slowly and motioned for the other party to continue.

After more than ten breaths, Lin Dong showed no intention of speaking.

Venerable Kasyapa continued, "The theme of this Heaven Peace Conference is about the opening of the Great Dark Heaven..."
