Starting as a clan leader: My rules are a bit wild.

"Indeed."

Luo Feng nodded, but then said: "However, it is better not to start a war."

"A war of this magnitude would cause great suffering to all living beings. I wonder how many immortals would die in it... Alas."

"That's true."

Babata was not so cold-blooded. After a moment, he said, "By the way, we have established a simple communication system with the sect."

"oh?!"

Luo Feng's face lit up with joy: "Can we get in touch?!"

Babata nodded: "I guess so."

"What do you mean by count?" Luo Feng blinked, a little confused.

"Let's put it this way."

Babata scratched his head. "I have made contact, but it's not efficient... Because we are too far away, and in order to prevent the mechanical race from detecting us, I can only transmit one thousandth of a byte of content each time."

"Even this will take about a month to deliver."

"Even if there is a set of 'codes' between me and my original body, and I can use the simplest content to understand what the other party wants to express, it will still take half a year to convey a complete sentence."

Luo Feng: “…”

"Alright."

"At least we can get in touch, it just takes half a year."

He didn't blame Babata for not being strong enough, because only by truly understanding how big the fairyland is, would one know how difficult this is.

What's more, he had to avoid the detection and tracking of the mechanical race. To be able to do this, Babata was already an incredible person.

“It will be delayed for half a year.”

Babata sighed, "It takes one year to go back and forth."

"Just now, some news came back from home."

"Oh? What news?"

"To put it simply, several of your brothers and sisters who were away, including Long Aojiao, were attacked, and it was an attack by the Thirteenth Realm."

Luo Feng's expression changed.

"But don't worry, your master is very strong and rescued them all. All those people in the Thirteenth Realm were killed. This matter has come to an end."

“I’m more curious about…”

"you."

Babata changed the subject: "All the disciples of Lanyue Sect who were out there, even Long Aojiao, were attacked and killed, why are you the only one who is fine?"

"With the means of those immortal masters, since they can kill others at the same time, they shouldn't have left you behind."

"So···"

"Is it possible that someone came to kill you, but we were hiding in the giant mechanical city and they couldn't do anything, so they just let it go?"

"!"

Luo Feng frowned: "It's very likely."

"This is something we need to pay attention to. We must be careful when we leave later."

"As for the rest, there's nothing important."

"The sect is developing normally. Also, we have people in three of the Four Great Walls."

"Oh?"

"You and me outside the Endless Wall."

"Brother Sanye, the master in the Sword Qi Great Wall?"

"And Senior Sister Yaya who just arrived at Haoran Great Wall."

"Is that so?"

Luo Feng nodded slowly: "As for the Haoran Great Wall...it is indeed suitable for Senior Sister Yaya. After all, there are only demons outside."

They were chatting.

Suddenly, news came from the Mechanical City.

The content is... The mechanical clan is about to launch a large-scale raid, and all garbage stations must be fully prepared!
Luo Feng's mouth twitched, and he looked at Babata: "You are such a bad mouth."

Babata didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "This..."

"I don't want to either."

He changed his words again: “No, I think!”

"But, what I say doesn't count."

"I know."

Luo Feng sighed: "But I don't know how many people will die in the battle."

"Isn't this the meaning of our existence?" Babata changed the subject: "Our current identity is 'inside support'. We should think of a way to help the Endless Great Wall."

"Do you have an idea?"

"this···"

Babata scratched his head: "Not yet."

Luo Feng: “…”

"Let's pass the message on first, so that at least the Endless Great Wall can be prepared."

"Since it's a surprise attack, the difference between being prepared and being unprepared is bound to be huge!"

"Yes, let's pass the message on first, and we'll slowly figure out the other aspects."

Babata immediately began to take action and secretly passed the message to the Endless Great Wall.

"All right!"

"Although it will take some time, as long as nothing unexpected happens, they will definitely receive the message and reduce a lot of unnecessary losses. It's already great that we can play this role."

"After all, it's unprecedented!"

"That's true, but I'm worried about another problem now. Do they...believe it?"

Babata was stunned: "Why don't you believe it?"

"because···"

"The human heart."

Luo Feng didn't know how to explain it either.

After all, humans are extremely complex creatures.

The person from the Endless Great Wall whom they had contacted before was actually not a high-level official, but a middle-level official at most.

How much say can a middle-level manager have?
It is even possible that he believed it, and in the process of reporting the matter, other people jumped out to stop him, saying that it was fake news, or even that they were "traitors" and that this news was meant to deceive the Endless Great Wall. It is not impossible.

As for who would do this...

People who claim to be smart, people who have grudges against the other party, and possible real traitors...
There are so many possibilities.

In the end, can the goal be achieved?

It's hard to say.

However, Luo Feng did not dwell too much on this matter.

Do your best, listen to destiny.

I am not a savior, I am just a rookie who has just arrived in this world and started the path of cultivating immortals. How can I care about so many things?

Doing what you can well is already valuable.

······
Muchen officially began his training.

Lin Fan did not "designate" his path, and let him choose it himself.

And he also directly obtained conditions that all his fellow brothers and sisters had never had before. The entire Sutra Library was open to him, and all the invincible techniques and methods were available for him to choose from!
It’s not that Lin Fan prefers it.

But...
Now we have this condition!
In the past, my family was poor and there was nothing we could do. Even if we gave out all the good things, it would still be like that.

Especially when Xiao Linger joined the sect, what on earth was the Lanyue Sect?

Only the Earth's Core Demon Fire can be considered a treasure.

Invincible technique, invincible method?

Don't even think about it!
Times are different now. For latecomers, if the conditions allow, we should naturally let them keep up.

And Muchen did not live up to his name.

genius!

The genius that never died!

The speed of his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds. In his hands, all kinds of methods and techniques, as long as he chose one and was interested in it, he could quickly get started, become proficient, and achieve some success.

In terms of pure training speed, although he cannot compare to a monkey, there are few people who can match him.

Moreover, Muchen is still young, so he doesn’t need to go out to gain experience. He just needs to stay in seclusion and practice.

······
Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

West of the Three Thousand Continents.

Dozens of continents are controlled by Buddhism.

A golden temple towers high in the sky, and the Buddha's light shines down, illuminating dozens of continents.

And wherever the Buddha's light shines is the Buddha's land, also known as the Western Paradise.

The land of the West is immune to evil spirits and is illuminated by the Buddha’s light.

Originally, the land of the West was much larger.

For example, the original Xiniu Hezhou was the territory of the Western Heaven.

But over the years, the area where the Buddha's light shines has been shrinking again and again, and the territory of the Western Paradise has been shrinking again and again.

So much so that rumors spread throughout the fairy world.

Some say that the power of Buddhism is declining and is no longer sufficient to protect its believers and territory.

There are also those who say that the evil spirits were becoming more and more powerful, pressing forward step by step, and forcing the Buddhists to retreat.

Some people also said that this was the big boss's plan, and that the Buddhist sect was accumulating strength and preparing for a counterattack...
But it's all just 'saying'.

No one knows what the specific situation is. All we know is that the great Leiyin Temple, hanging high in the sky and illuminating dozens of continents, is still there and still shining.

······
At this moment, inside the Great Leiyin Temple.

Many Buddhas have temporarily left, leaving only one Buddha, with his back to all living beings and facing nothingness.

Not long after, Gatlin arrived here under the guidance of a monk.

A few days ago, he had entered the thirteenth realm.

Of course, it's not just on his own.

Back then, he was led here by the Buddha from the upper realm. At that time, he was actually already in the tenth realm.

But, there is only a remnant soul.

Subsequently.

They used the wishes of all living beings, incense, and some special Buddhist methods to reshape Gatlin's body and help him revive.

With the blessing of various treasures, Gatlin had reached the twelfth realm when he was almost truly resurrected.

Over the years, he continued to practice while familiarizing himself with his own realm and cultivation.

Thanks to the unique conditions for cultivation in the upper realm and the almost endless resources from Buddhism, he finally broke through to the thirteenth realm a few days ago.

only···
Despite such favorable conditions, Gatlin was not happy.

You can’t just say whether you are happy or not.

Rather, he always felt weird.

Although he was a strong man in the lower world and devoted himself to Buddhism, to say that he was a good monk was absolutely bullshit!

He accepts wine, meat, beautiful women and so on... You said that there is a big guy in the upper realm who values ​​me and brought me up. This makes sense.

But over the years, he had never been summoned by any big boss. Instead, all kinds of resources were directly maxed out. His physical body was now a 'golden body'!
The value is inestimable.

Such excellent conditions, why? !

In Gatlin's opinion, it was like he was a person with average looks, average family background, average academic performance, and average interpersonal skills...
In short, everything about this poor boy is ordinary, and no one would even look at him twice if he were thrown into a crowd.

I was walking peacefully on the street when suddenly someone with a perfect figure, perfect looks, a genius student, the daughter of the richest man, and the most perfect school beauty in history approached me, and she said she wanted to marry me and support me.

The most important thing is that she has a good personality!

And don’t ask for anything in return!
Looks cool, right?

This tremendous wealth and good things finally came to me.

But···
You have to think about it, why?
Why do people treat you like this?
Why do you deserve this?

What's your special feature?!

Is there? !
Gatlin has asked himself countless times over the years: "Do I have it?"

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Really!
Traveler!
Other than this attribute, Gatlin can’t think of any advantages he has over the others.

talent?

Among these monks in the fairy world, there are many who are better than me.

Personality?

Buddha nature?
I'm almost holding back and talking bullshit.

I don't believe these words myself.

So, he was a little frightened and uneasy.

Because, when a person, or a certain force, treats you well for no reason, and is especially good to you, and you can never find another one like them...
Then you have to be careful.

You have no special strengths, people are not interested in your "external" qualities, and you don't have any inner qualities either.

Then, what he wants is only...
Your own life!

Or is it my identity as a time traveler, and...something related to the identity of a time traveler?
And today, he was finally summoned.

What they want...

Perhaps, the outcome will soon become clear.

Gatlin clasped his hands together and bowed slightly: "Amitabha."

"That's good, that's good."

The Buddha did not turn around, and said softly: "Gatlin, you have been in heaven for many years, and you have been practicing diligently. Are you used to it?"

"···"

Gatlin sat on the ground carelessly: "I'm used to it. I'm quite used to it."

"It's just lacking some meat and beautiful women."

“It’s quite boring.”

He was not cautious.

acting?

What else are you acting?

Even a fool knows that they have something in mind for themselves.

What's more, it has always been like this in the underworld.

Even if they really don't have any conspiracy or ideas, they are just being themselves, and there's nothing wrong with that, right?

"You are really kind."

The Buddha smiled and did not ask for permission.

This made Gatlin even more alert.

I said all this in front of Buddha... and he doesn't care?

Good guy!
This time the test is not going well.

"Don't overthink it."

The Buddha said, "I asked you to come here just to talk to you."

"Also, do you know the current situation in Xitian?"

"···, getting weaker day by day, I know something." Gatlin nodded.

Obviously, here comes the point!
"Then do you know why this is so?"

Gatlin shook his head.

"That's because my Buddhist sect is destined to face this disaster."

"Ugh."

With a long sigh, the Buddha continued, "The past is too long and troublesome to describe in three days and three nights, so I won't nag you anymore."

"But now, we Buddhists are in the midst of a catastrophe and cannot protect ourselves."

"The only way out is to spread Buddhism to the East, gather countless believers, and use the power of will and incense to overcome this disaster."

"but···"

“It’s hard to describe the difficulty here.”

"And you are the only variable."

“It’s also the only possibility.”

Gatling Bodhisattva had a blank expression on his face, staring straight at the Buddha's back, waiting for what to come.

Seeing that Gatlin didn't respond, the Buddha didn't say much, and continued: "Only you can change the current situation."

"Rebuild the glory of our Buddhist sect."

"And let the Buddha's light shine upon the three thousand continents."

"therefore···"

Gatlin's mouth twitched slightly: "Tell me, what do you need me to do?"

He understood.

It's obvious that there's something for you to do.

Sure enough, there is still a purpose.

only···
We will have to wait and see what the goal is.

"Ashamed to say that."

The Buddha sighed: "According to my deduction and research with several ancient Buddhas..."

"You need to enter reincarnation."

"I was reincarnated to the Far East, became a monk devoted to Buddhism, traveled westward, sought the true scriptures, spread the Dharma, and thus spread my Buddhist faith throughout the three thousand continents..."

Gatling Bodhisattva: “???!”

“Σ(⊙▽⊙“a?!”

He was shocked and confused.

What the hell...

Something seems wrong?!

What the hell is this?

No, no!
Listen again!

"Reincarnated as a monk?"

Gatlin asked in surprise: "Then his strength should be pretty good, right?"

"After all, the journey westward is countless billions of miles. If I am not allowed to take the teleportation array, even with my current cultivation level, it will take tens of thousands of years, right?"

"Perhaps not enough?"

"···"

"wrong!"

Gatlin: “??? Wrong?”

"Will it take hundreds of thousands of years?"

"I mean, you got it wrong."

The Buddha's voice was calm, and one could not tell whether he was happy or sad: "Since we are traveling to the West to seek the true scriptures and save the world, we must naturally walk down to the West step by step."

"Otherwise, how can we save people by just flying all the way?"

"???!"

grass!?

Gatlin Bodhisattva felt even more uneasy.

What the fuck...

Something's wrong!

This really wants me to be Tang Sanzang!
What's going on? !
He frowned and said, "It may take tens of thousands of years to reach the West Heaven."

"But, it's not impossible, right?"

He continued to test: "However, along the way, I have to preach the scriptures and convert people. I am afraid I will encounter countless disasters."

"You must have enough strength. Otherwise, you will be chopped down by others before you take a few steps. Not even a bone will be left."

The Buddha shook his head and said, "Wrong again."

Gatling: “…”

"Wrong yet?!"

He was stunned.

"Since we are here to save people and spread the Dharma, we cannot be high and mighty." The Buddha said softly, "Although there are many monks in the Three Thousand Continents, the majority are ordinary people."

"Therefore, you cannot have any cultivation at all and must get along with them as an ordinary person."

"We should use love to influence the world."

"So..." Gatling Bodhisattva's mouth twitched: "I am an ordinary person with no strength?"

"That's it."

The Buddha nodded.

Gatling Bodhisattva narrowed his eyes slightly and remained speechless.

Fuck!
And you still say he’s not Tang Sanzang?
But···
What do you think?

Who the hell am I?
Gatling!

A monk who loves wine and meat, and a monk who loves flowers and flowers!
Before I traveled through time, I was a gangster.

Bad guy!
Should I be Tang Sanzang?
No, how am I like Tang Sanzang?
What's going on? !
He frowned, picked out the unreasonable points, and said: "How can ordinary people ensure their own safety?"

"Preaching and fighting for faith are life-and-death struggles. I'm afraid I'll be dead before I even walk ten thousand miles, let alone across three thousand continents."

"We in the Buddhist sect will naturally make arrangements for this."

The Buddha smiled and thought that Gatlin approved of the job, but just had some questions. Therefore, he explained in detail: "Along the way, we Buddhists have already arranged most of the things."

"Although there will be some disasters, they are not real disasters. They exist for the purpose of spreading our Buddhist teachings."

"At the same time, we have also arranged a few disciples for you..."

"These disciples are all quite capable and have strong backgrounds."

"By the time···"

Gatling Bodhisattva: “…”

Hey!
It really is the fucking Journey to the West, isn’t it? (End of this chapter)
