Starting from Comprehensive Martial Arts: Bu Dao Lu

Chapter 666 Confrontation
Duobao Tathagata has experienced the world for a long time, so he naturally knows how much impact Emperor Ziwei's words have on the immortals and gods in the temple and the powerful powers of the heavens.

Therefore, the moment Emperor Ziwei's words fell, Duobao Tathagata said solemnly: "Emperor, please be careful what you say! Buddhism is inherited by saints and serves as an example for hundreds of millions of living beings. Don't slander it!"

Emperor Ziwei chuckled and said: "Don't slander? Haha! Buddhism is really overbearing. Buddha overstepped his authority and lost the Heavenly Palace to outsiders. I just said a few words about Buddhism, which is nonsense. Buddhism is so majestic! Buddha, I once heard a saying from the human race: Only the state officials are allowed to set fires, but the common people are not allowed to light lamps. It seems that the Buddha has a deep understanding of this!"

Because of the agreement between the Jade Emperor and the Buddhist saints, he would naturally take care of Buddhism to some extent. Emperor Ziwei has no interest in Buddhism at all, so how can he give Buddhism face? It doesn't matter that Buddhism is a great religion of saints. Emperor Ziwei is not afraid of Buddhism. At that time, Emperor Ziwei was also a guest in Zixiao Palace. When it came to his identity at that time, Emperor Ziwei was not short of introductions and references. Even now, Jieyin and Zhunti must treat Emperor Ziwei with courtesy! Moreover, Emperor Ziwei had the Xuanmen Sanqing behind him, so how could Emperor Ziwei care about Buddhism? Therefore, Emperor Ziwei didn't take it to heart at all, despite the subtle reminders and warnings contained in Duobao Tathagata's words.

Emperor Ziwei ridiculed Buddhism so contemptuously, which is really shocking! In all the worlds, the higher the cultivation level of monks, the more cautious they will be, and they will not easily make grudges with others! It is rare for a powerful person with the status and status of Emperor Ziwei to openly ridicule a force by name.

Duobao Tathagata heard the sarcasm of Emperor Ziwei, and his heart was filled with unknown anger. Since he set out on the path of spiritual practice, he has been practicing with the Shangqing saints. His status is very respected in both Jiejiao and Buddhism. It can be said that Emperor Ziwei was almost the first person to speak openly and ridicule him in front of Duobao Tathagata.

However, although Duobao Tathagata felt an unknown fire in his heart, he also knew that it was not appropriate to have a head-on conflict with Emperor Ziwei at this time.

Duobao Tathagata knew in his heart that Emperor Ziwei's intention was to split the alliance between Buddhism and Haotian. Heaven may not care about Buddhism, but at this time of the Great Tribulation of Journey to the West, Buddhism must not harm Heaven. Does the Great Journey to the West dominated by Buddhism still require the close cooperation of heaven?

The Jade Emperor was not unaware of Emperor Ziwei's thoughts. However, the Jade Emperor also really cared about what Emperor Ziwei said. Because, judging from the past actions of Saint Chunti, the possibility of Patriarch Bodhi and the Monkey King joining forces to scheme against Heaven is not impossible. Moreover, the Jade Emperor was also a little uneasy; if the Monkey King is really a Buddhist, then the Monkey King uprooting the peach tree also has a Buddhist meaning. What is the purpose of Buddhism? If the Monkey King is not a Buddhist, then is the Monkey King's action of uprooting the peach tree a warning given to him by the Xuanmen Sanqing? But regardless of whether the Monkey King was a Buddhist or a backer of the Xuanmen Sanqing, the Jade Emperor immediately made up his mind and tried not to take the initiative to participate again. Before everything is unclear, the best choice is to protect yourself wisely.

The Jade Emperor, who saw the Tathagata Duobao with his eyes and nose, and his nose and mind, knew that the Jade Emperor must have doubts about Buddhism. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for the Jade Emperor to end up helping Buddhism now.

"Emperor, the old monk and the Monkey King made a bet with the Heavenly Palace. They really want the Monkey King to completely accept it. If the Emperor doesn't believe it, the old monk can make an oath of heaven." Without waiting for Emperor Ziwei's words, Duobao Tathagata said loudly: " Heaven is above. Now I, the Tathagata Many Treasures, swear to Heaven that I will use the Heavenly Palace as a bet just to subdue the Monkey King. If you have the intention of scheming against Heaven, Heaven will punish you."

Duobao Tathagata understood that he and Buddhism had been forced into a corner by Emperor Ziwei. The words in the mouth of Emperor Ziwei are both true and false, and are very detrimental to Buddhism. Now, the only way is to swear to heaven and completely clear himself of the suspicion of scheming against heaven. Otherwise, today will never end.

Emperor Ziwei did not expect Duobao Tathagata to be so decisive and made an oath of heaven on the spot!

All practitioners in the world, no matter how high or low they are, have great reverence for the oath of heaven. Because, the oath of heaven is to discuss cause and effect with heaven. How can the cause and effect of heaven be so owed? If the oath Tathagata Duobao just made is untrue, heaven will definitely punish him directly with thunder.

Looking at Duobao Tathagata with a determined face, Emperor Ziwei couldn't help but praise him in his heart. This Buddhist Supreme Being is truly extraordinary! However, Emperor Ziwei is here to cause trouble today. Even though Duobao Tathagata has made an oath of heaven to win the believers of the gods and gods, Emperor Ziwei will never give up so easily!
"I admire the Buddha's decisive heart! But the Buddha's sincere heart does not mean that Buddhism also has sincerity towards heaven. Buddha can dare to speak out about Buddhism!" The words of Emperor Ziwei will be addressed by the Tathagata Many Treasures just now. The gods and gods were moved by the act of swearing by heaven and they came back again!

Yes!

Duobao Tathagata may really have no ill intentions towards heaven.

But what about the Monkey King!
Patriarch Bodhi taught the Monkey King in Huaguo Mountain for hundreds of years. If he said that the Monkey King was not a disciple of Buddhism, even the Tathagata Many Treasures would not believe it. The Monkey King is a Hunyuan Golden Immortal, and he is willing to accept the punishment of the Demon Slaying Platform. This kind of mentality and calculation are really terrifying! It can be said that the Monkey King came here to plot against heaven.

Although Tathagata Many Treasures has never plotted against heaven, there is no difference between the Monkey King plotting against heaven and Tathagata Many Treasures plotting against heaven! After all, they are all Buddhist disciples.

Emperor Ziwei's words left Duobao Tathagata speechless for a moment!

The words of Patriarch Bodhi and the Monkey King just now in front of the Tongming Hall seem to indicate that the Monkey King has little to do with Buddhism! However, Patriarch Bodhi, a sub-sage-level saint's avatar, has been teaching the Monkey King for hundreds of years in Huaguo Mountain. Duobao Tathagata is really not sure, or even believes that the Monkey King really has nothing to do with Buddhism!

Now, even Duobao Tathagata doubts the Monkey King's position, not to mention the immortal gods and powerful powers in heaven!

In fact, the key to all problems now lies in the Monkey King's position!
All the gods regard the Monkey King as a disciple of Buddhism; but only Patriarch Bodhi understands that the Monkey King has nothing to do with Buddhism. He really did not accept the Monkey King as a disciple in Huaguo Mountain for hundreds of years. Behind the Monkey King are the Three Purities of Xuanmen!
Of course, the Monkey King himself knows best that he does not belong to any force at all, and everything is just a cover-up!
Seeing that the situation in Lingxiao Palace has reached a stalemate, the situation is gradually getting out of control!

In front of the Tongming Hall, Patriarch Bodhi took a deep look at the Monkey King, then sighed softly, and then an incarnation walked out of Patriarch Bodhi and went straight to the sky.

Patriarch Bodhi’s actions were not disguised at all!
Not only did the Monkey King look at Patriarch Bodhi meaningfully, but the immortals and gods in the Lingxiao Palace also looked towards the sky.

Emperor Ziwei looked at Duobao Tathagata who was silent and chuckled without saying a word!
Patriarch Bodhi went to Tushita Palace, which shows that this matter can no longer be solved by heaven and Buddhism alone. The final decision-making power on this matter lies in the hands of the saints!
