Honghuang: I, Huanglong, refine the heavens and do not join the Chan sect

Chapter 269: Huang Long is strong, without Buddhism, the Journey to the West goes on as usual!

Guixu, a Taoist temple hidden in the clouds.

this day.

Maitreya suddenly came to visit and conveyed a message to the two saints in the West, hoping that Huang Long would be able to visit Mount Sumeru in the West after a hundred years.

Letting the quasi-saint act as the messenger makes it seem that he is sincere.

In fact, it is just like that. You know, Huang Long's current status in Honghuang is not much worse than that of Hongjun Daozu.

Let me ask you one question: would the two saints from the West dare to ask Hongjun Daozu to go to Mount Xumi to discuss things?

From this point alone, it can be seen that in the hearts of the two saints in the West, Huang Long's status is not as high as that of Hongjun Daozu.

Bai Mi and others were all very angry about this incident.

In addition, the Buddhist sect has repeatedly extended its hands to the dragon and phoenix clans, as well as the underworld. After learning the purpose of Maitreya's trip, Bai Mi and his companions had no good expressions at all.

Huang Long himself, on the other hand, still had a calm expression on his face, and said that he would go to Mount Xumi in person in the future.

Huang Long could see the purpose of the two Western saints at a glance.

The stone monkey was born, the great catastrophe of Journey to the West came, and the rise of Buddhism was like a raging fire, at its peak, unstoppable.

At this critical moment, the two saints from the West suddenly did this. Huang Long naturally understood their intention, which was nothing more than the journey to the West.

There are a total of eighty-one tribulations in Journey to the West. Each tribulation is an important node and an opportunity for the growth of Buddhism's fortune.

If handled properly, it will not only allow the Eastern fortune to move westwards and strengthen the Buddhist fortune, but also balance the fortune of the East and the West.

At the same time, the locations of these nodes will also be some hidden dangers in the prehistoric world, which may be defects in the earth veins, or the instability of the world.

If we can resolve these hidden dangers by taking advantage of the last catastrophe of the prehistoric world, the Journey to the West, we will definitely gain a lot of merit.

This is not a difficult point to discover. I believe that the two saints in the West also saw this point and wanted to set these eighty-one difficulties in Xi Niu Hezhou as much as possible.

Taking this opportunity, the spiritual energy of Xiniu Hezhou will be greatly increased, making it more suitable for cultivation and moving towards prosperity.

But if we want to achieve this, Huang Long becomes a huge uncertainty factor.

Who doesn’t know now that Huang Long attaches great importance to the evolution of the prehistoric world? It seems that his chance to prove his truth lies in the prehistoric world.

Many powerful people are speculating that whether Honghuang can be promoted may be related to whether Huanglong can make further progress.

Obviously, the idea of ​​the two saints in the West to set the 81 difficulties in Xiniu Hezhou is not the best choice for the evolution of the prehistoric world.

In order to avoid Huang Long stopping them halfway, they wanted to talk to Huang Long in advance. If necessary, they were willing to pay a certain price.

Since he had guessed the general purpose of the Two Saints of the West, Huang Long decided to make a trip.

It just so happened that he also wanted to have a good talk with the Two Saints of the West regarding the calamity of Journey to the West.

Now that the time has not yet come, Huang Long went to the demon world first.

It was not until a hundred years later that he set out for Mount Sumeru.

Xiniu Hezhou.

After years of operation by Buddhism, all living beings believe in Buddhism. In densely populated areas, temples are lined up, pagodas stand like forests, and the sounds of bells are deep and distant.

Even in the wilderness and sparsely populated areas, there are temples where monks practice.

Mount Sumeru, the Pure Land.

This was not Huang Long's first time coming here. Among many saints, he had come to Mount Sumeru the most times.

Although this paradise is not as good as Guixu, it is also one of the top holy places for cultivation in the Three Realms.

It is rich in resources, filled with the spirit of Taoism, and is planted with innate magical medicines and exotic flowers and plants.

The branches of the innate spiritual roots are tall and straight, lush and verdant. While absorbing and exhaling the innate spiritual energy, they also release the innate wood energy. The air is surrounded by clouds and mist, and the glow of the clouds is brilliant, creating an extraordinary atmosphere.

Although most of the innate spiritual roots are of medium to low quality, when their number increases, they are still valuable.

What's more, some high-quality spiritual roots are quite precious.

Even among the saintly sects, it is a rare thing.

Of course, the Guixu lineage is not included.

Under Huang Long's management, Guixu has long become the ultimate place for cultivating spiritual roots in the prehistoric world.

In the garden of the Yunyin Taoist Temple, top-grade innate spiritual roots are everywhere, and those of middle grade are not even qualified to enter.

However, this is because Guixu's foundation is too profound. If compared with Jiejiao and Chenjiao, the number of spiritual roots in Mount Xumi has already shown a tendency to be more outstanding.

In addition to spiritual roots, there are also many rare spiritual minerals stored in the mountains, and innate spiritual waters are hanging like the Milky Way.

These are the accumulations of the Two Saints of the West, as well as a group of Bodhisattvas and Buddhas in Buddhism over endless years, which have greatly increased the foundation of Buddhism.

But if you ask what is the most precious thing in Mount Xumi, the Eight Treasures Merit Pond is definitely one of them.

This is something that can suppress luck and fortune, and is a precious treasure of Buddhism.

If there were no Eight Treasures Merit Pool and Twelve-Level Merit Golden Lotus, Buddhism's expansion method would have been backfired by bad luck long ago.

"Fellow Daoist Huanglong's presence here truly brings glory to this humble monk's humble residence on Mount Xumi."

Jie Yin and Zhunti personally came to greet Huang Long and led him into the Bodhi Palace.

This is a huge palace located in the Paradise. It is on par with the Biyou Palace, Yuxu Palace, Bajing Palace, and Wahuang Palace, and contains a strong sage's Taoist charm.

By the time Huang Long came in, saints such as Sanqing, Nuwa, Hou Tu and Chang Xi had already arrived.

In addition to the saints, there are also the Three Emperors of the human race, Haotian, and the quasi-saints of the major powerful tribes in the prehistoric world.

The matter of the catastrophe in Journey to the West will not only affect the interests of other forces in the prehistoric world, but also this matter.

Therefore, the Two Saints of the West not only invited Huang Long, but also invited people from all the major forces in the prehistoric world.

After a brief greeting, the saint and a group of powerful people went straight to the point and talked about the catastrophe of Journey to the West.

"My fellow Taoists, I believe you all know the reason why I invited you to come here."

"The rise of Buddhism is a revelation from heaven, and it is related to the final evolution of the prehistoric world. I believe you all already know this."

"Although Buddhism is flourishing, your interests will be slightly damaged."

"But from a long-term perspective, the prosperity of Buddhism will benefit you more."

“If the prehistoric world is promoted to the eternal world in the future, there will be no more obstacles to the cultivation of fellow Taoists, and the quasi-saints can successfully achieve the Dao of Hunyuan and become saints.”

"A saint can also go one step further and attain the status of Hunyuan Wuji Daluo Jinxian."

"I won't say any more about the heretics. Today, let's discuss this journey to the west."

Most of the time, Huang Long watched coldly from the sidelines as the saints and the powerful discussed the matter.

As time passed, the Journey to the West was sorted out, and most of the plans were exactly the same as those remembered by the time travelers.

For example, the eighty-one tribulations of Journey to the West, the seven great saints of the demon race, etc.

These are all revealed by heaven and are the self-correction of the ancient world.

With a little deduction, we can find out this.

But the arrangement of details is quite different from what the time traveler remembers.

After all, the composition of the present primitive world is very different from the Dharma Ending Age in the memories of the time travelers.

The scale of the prehistoric world is also not comparable to what the travelers remember. But there is one thing that is exactly the same, that is, the Journey to the West itself is a play directed and performed by multiple forces.

Some people act as disasters, responsible for making things difficult for those seeking scriptures, while others act as saviors, helping those seeking scriptures overcome difficulties.

Once most of the things were agreed upon, it soon became time to tackle the toughest part.

Thinking of this, the two Western Saints glanced at Huang Long, who remained calm and silent, suppressed their uneasiness, and said:

"If Buddhism wants to flourish, it must build momentum for the stone monkey."

"Only if his strength is terrifying enough, his reputation will spread throughout the three realms."

"The fact that the stone monkey was finally subdued by the Buddha will be deeply rooted in people's hearts, which will be beneficial to the future promotion of Buddhism, the prosperity of Buddhism, and the growth of the fortunes of the West."

"Everyone knows that Heaven and Hell are the orthodox of the Three Realms, with great prestige and powerful strength."

"Especially the Netherworld, which controls the life and death of all living beings, making all living beings in the heavens and the worlds both terrified and fearful."

“If we can stage a grand drama, let the stone monkey cause chaos in the underworld, change life and death, and make trouble in the Heavenly Palace, and then let the Buddhist sect come forward to suppress the stone monkey, it will definitely make the journey to the West more effective.”

"The Great Tribulation of Journey to the West is related to the final evolution of the Primordial World. The higher the effect, the faster the Primordial World will be promoted to the Eternal World."

"As the leader of the Journey to the West, you will gain more benefits."

"For the sake of Honghuang, I hope the underworld and heaven can cooperate."

The other saints and quasi-saints were all silent, their eyes fell on Huang Long.

He is a genuine saint and also the lord of the underworld.

Huang Long’s attitude is crucial to whether the Buddhist plan is feasible.

The saints of Xuanmen were also waiting for Huang Long to express his opinion. If the other party agreed to the Buddhist's request, they were willing to let the underworld cooperate in the development of Buddhism.

They would also agree to let the Heavenly Court pave the way for Buddhism. If they were unwilling, they would also express their stance.

Huang Long had anticipated this result. He glanced at the two Western Saints and said directly without beating around the bush:

"I know exactly what the two Taoist friends are thinking."

"Since the advent of Buddhism, I have tried to interfere in the affairs of the netherworld several times. Today, I will take this opportunity to speak out."

"The netherworld is related to the life and death of all spirits and maintains the order of yin and yang."

"When I established the Netherworld, I set a rule that no force is allowed to interfere in the affairs of the Netherworld."

“If the Buddhist sect intends to interfere with the power of the Netherworld again, I will bring the underground sect and come to Mount Xumi to ask for advice in person.”

"I want to see how far your Buddhism has grown!"

Having said that, Huang Long narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold murderous aura filled the inside and outside of Mount Xumi.

Everyone present felt tremendous pressure.

Huang Long has become stronger!
The same thought occurred to everyone, and they looked at Huang Long with a little more vigilance.

At the same time, they did not expect that Huang Long would suddenly attack at this time and show no mercy to the Two Saints of the West.

However, they can understand such a result.

If someone repeatedly tries to encroach on their territory, their temper will not be any better.

What's more, other people may be concerned about Buddhism, but Huang Long will not.

But no one expected that when the Journey to the West catastrophe was about to begin, Huang Long would actually cause trouble for the affairs of the underworld.

You must know that the main body of the Journey to the West catastrophe is Buddhism.

If the Buddhist sect gave up, everyone would suffer losses, and it would also affect the speed of prehistoric evolution.

If Buddhism is severely damaged, it may even cause the prehistoric world to stagnate for millions of years.

In everyone's opinion, what Huang Long cares about most is the promotion of Honghuang to the eternal world.

As revealed by the secrets of heaven today, the Journey to the West catastrophe is the last catastrophe of the prehistoric world.

After it ends, the prehistoric world will enter its final stage, and it won’t be long before it is promoted to the eternal world.

In other words, whether Buddhism can flourish depends on whether Honghuang is suitable for promotion to the eternal world.

It was precisely for this reason that the two saints from the West dared to once again think of getting involved in the underworld at this time.

They expected that Huang Long would compromise and make concessions in order for Honghuang to be promoted to the eternal world.

Unexpectedly, Huang Long attached so much importance to the underworld. Even though Buddhism now played a vital role in the evolution of the prehistoric world, Huang Long did not back down at all.

As Huang Long expressed his stance, Hou Tu, Chang Xi, Queen Mother of the West, Minghe, Zulong, Yuan Feng and Zhen Yuanzi who were present also expressed their stances, releasing the pressure of saints.

Some people's aura is locked on the two saints of the West, while others' aura is locked on the saint of heaven.

As long as Huang Long said a word, they would take action and teach Buddhism a lesson.

Unlike other forces, these saints of the authentic lineage were able to attain sainthood and become the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian because of Huanglong.

Or they were simply trained by Huang Long himself, so as long as Huang Long does not want to ruin their path, they will choose to stand on Huang Long's side, just like now.

The two saints from the West are now in a dilemma, locked in by the auras of so many saints, they dare not even breathe.

They all felt regretful now, regretting that they should not have shown the desire to get involved in the underworld at this time.

If a holy war really breaks out, not to mention Mount Sumeru, I'm afraid the entire Xiniu Hezhou would be completely destroyed.

But fortunately, Huang Long has no plans to take action for the time being.

He looked at the two Western saints expressionlessly, then retracted his breath and said again:

"I'll leave it at that. As for how to choose, you two can decide for yourselves."

"As for the stone monkey, even though it is the protagonist of Journey to the West, it cannot be allowed to enter the netherworld and act recklessly."

"In my opinion, the rise of Buddhism and the catastrophe of the Journey to the West are two different things."

"What I care about is the Journey to the West calamity, not whether Buddhism will flourish. Even if there is no Buddhism, the Journey to the West calamity will occur as scheduled. I said so!"

Huang Long showed a faint smile on his face and glanced at the two Western saints whose expressions changed slightly.

Then, he changed the subject and continued:

"I am not someone who does not understand reason. I know that some of the Buddhist teachings involve the netherworld. In order to fulfill their great aspirations, they have tried to infiltrate the netherworld several times."

"However, the laws of yin and yang cannot be trampled upon. Regardless of whether one worships Taoism or believes in Buddhism, after the death of a believer, the soul must return to the netherworld. There is no way to avoid the rewards and punishments of the underworld and not enter the cycle of reincarnation."

"After death, devout believers who have done good deeds and accumulated virtue will be reincarnated. In the next life, they will have a connection with Buddhism or Taoism and hopefully embark on the path of spiritual practice."

"If a believer's faith is not strong or he has committed many evil deeds, he will go to hell to be punished and will have no connection with Buddhism or Taoism."

"This is my bottom line. It can also be regarded as fulfilling the great wish of Buddhism in disguise."

"In addition, all beings below the Golden Immortal level, regardless of their power, must enter the netherworld once they die. No one may stop them, otherwise they will be severely punished."

"This is my final warning!"

The words fell.

A terrifying pressure burst out from Huang Long, and Mount Sumeru was pressed down another three feet!
