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

Chapter 275 Hongjun Creates the Demon Clan, and Buddhism Suffers
In a blink of an eye, the 50,000-year deadline is approaching.

Jin Chanzi, a disciple of Sakyamuni Buddha, has been reincarnated for the tenth time, and the Journey to the West has entered its final stage.

The powerful people from all sides were paying attention to this matter, even Hongjun Daozu was no exception. He looked towards the west and revealed a meaningful smile.

As humanity flourished and the Humanitarian Dynasty was established, the starting point of the Journey to the West was set in the capital of the Qin Empire.

The Human Emperor of the Qin Dynasty is blessed by the destiny of humanity and has the help of the Witch Clan. He is also inextricably linked with Guixu.

Even the great masters of Buddhism did not dare to use the art of entering the dreams of the Human Emperor, otherwise the fate of humanity would be in great trouble for them.

But fortunately, the Humane Dynasty also participated in this play, and the Great Qin Emperor also knew about it, so it was convenient to match them up.

this day.

Tang Xuanzang rode a white horse and left the Qin capital.

Although there were many believers and officials seeing him off, and even the prime minister, the ceremony was much less pompous than before.
Not to mention that the Human Emperor has not appeared, even the Three Dukes have not gathered together.

After bidding farewell to everyone, Tang Xuanzang headed west.

He encountered a tiger when leaving the city, fell into a pit and lost his followers, crossed Shuangcha Ridge and Liangjie Mountain, and finally arrived at the border of Wuzhi Mountain, took away the Buddha's hammer, and released Sun Wukong who had been trapped for 50,000 years.

With the loud noise of the mountain collapsing and the earth cracking, a golden-haired macaque flew out from it, full of heroic spirit and vigor, emitting a terrifying aura.

After practicing in the inner space of the mountain for 50,000 years, his state of mind and attainments reached a higher level, and his strength also increased greatly.

His personality yearns for freedom, which means that he will not be delayed in his practice within the mountain, and he can also use the thunder and fire disasters to temper his magic power and spirit.

But after 50,000 years, his cultivation level has always been stuck at the Half-Step Golden Immortal and he cannot go any further.

With Bai Mi's warning, he did not rashly bring about a heavenly calamity and force a breakthrough.

Now that he was free, he suddenly had an inspiration and took the last step. Knowing that the time had come, he hurriedly flew billions of miles away, bringing about a great calamity.

His body, soul and magical powers have all been honed to perfection, and the heavenly tribulation cannot pose any threat to him.

Soon, he survived all the thunders without any danger.

Then, his soul flew into the long river of destiny.

Now the Journey to the West calamity has entered its final stage. As the protagonist of the Journey to the West calamity, he is a man with great luck.

Finally, he rescued the true spirit without any danger and achieved the status of Daluo Jinxian!
Moreover, his body, soul, and magical power had been honed to perfection, and as soon as he broke through, he produced a ninth-grade flower.

The seeds of the divine flower and the air flower were also shining brightly, proclaiming his extraordinaryness.

Coupled with the Nine Revolutions Profound Art and many other top-notch magical powers, his current combat power is considered quite good among many Golden Immortals.

It is hard to say what the outcome would be if he faced a powerful Daluo Jinxian in the late stage, but he would definitely be able to fight against a Daluo Jinxian in the middle stage.

With the protection of Sun Wukong, who is at the Golden Immortal level, there are also many arrangements made by Huang Long on the journey to the West.

Nearly half of the 81 difficulties were Huang Long's subordinates.

This journey to the West has fallen into Huang Long's control.

Afterwards, Sun Wukong reunited with Tang Seng and set out on the journey to the west.

They first passed by Yingchoujian in Shepan Mountain. The white horse withdrew because of the long journey, and the white dragon horse appeared according to the script.

The White Dragon Horse is the son of the Dragon King of the West Sea, and the dragon clan intends to use him to participate in the Journey to the West.

At the same time, the White Dragon Horse is also under the control of the Yellow Dragon.

Later, a man, a monkey and a horse passed by Gao Laozhuang and were joined by Zhu Bajie.

Zhu Bajie was originally Bian Zhuang, the Marshal of the Heavenly Palace, and a disciple of Xuan Du of the Human Sect. The fact that he was able to join the team to obtain the scriptures was naturally the work of the Sage Taiqing.

The last member of the Journey to the West team, Sha Wujing, is from Haotian in the Heavenly Palace.

At this point, all members of the Journey to the West team have arrived and continue to move westward.

As the Yellow Dragon Avenue is about to be completed, everything is ready, and we can take the final step only after the prehistoric world is promoted to the eternal world.

Therefore, he did not extend the duration of the Journey to the West as he had originally imagined.

Instead, he tried to speed up the progress as much as possible and end the Journey to the West calamity as soon as possible.

He and Hongjun will eventually have a battle. If he can achieve the Hunyuan Wuda Daluo Jinxian first, then Hongjun will not be able to pose any threat.

If that's the case, how could he delay?
Under Huang Long's control, in just over thirty years, the Journey to the West team arrived at the foot of Mount Xumi.

Boom——!
a few days later.

As Sakyamuni rewarded the pilgrims one after another, the Journey to the West came to a successful conclusion, and the three realms of heaven, earth and man bestowed enormous merits.

Part of the merit fell on the road that Sun Wukong and others had walked before, and eighty-one nodes in the west were filled, truly completing the foundation of Xiniu Hezhou.

The eastern fortune flows toward the west through these eighty-one nodes, achieving a basic balance.

At this point, the cause and effect owed by Hongjun was resolved, and the way of heaven he represented was finally fulfilled.

The other part of the merits fell into the hands of all the forces participating in the Journey to the West. All the gods, demons, immortals, Buddhas, ghosts and humans gained something. Some had a deeper foundation, and some broke through.

The last part of the merit goes to the five members of Journey to the West.

The moment Tang Seng's merits were bestowed upon him, he soared from a mortal to a Taiyi Golden Immortal.

Afterwards, he awakened his memories of his past life, integrated them with the remains of the six-winged golden cicada from his past life, condensed a huge relic, and was surrounded by Buddha's light, becoming a Daluo Golden Immortal.

Because he followed the orthodox Buddha path of Buddhism, rather than the Bodhisattva path or Arhat path, Tang Seng achieved the status of a Great Buddha, rather than a Great Bodhisattva or Arhat.

The little white dragon transformed into a five-clawed white dragon. With the blessing of merit, he also took a crucial step and became a Daluo Golden Immortal, adding another powerful person to the dragon clan.

Sha Wujing also made a great leap, and with the increase of merit, he picked the Golden Immortal Fruit and became a big boss in the Xuanmen Heavenly Court.

At the moment when good merit came to him, Zhu Bajie's soul left the pig womb and merged into the Dharma body of his previous life. He easily jumped out of the long river of fate and also achieved the Daluo Jinxian.

Sun Wukong was already a Daluo Jinxian, and along the way, he had eaten all the spiritual fruits given by Bai Mi, and his cultivation had already reached the perfection of the early stage of Daluo Jinxian.

Now, with the blessing of enormous merits, he has made a breakthrough to the late stage of Daluo Jinxian and is only one step away from becoming a Quasi-Saint.

As long as he can obtain the method of beheading the Three Corpses, or the method of beheading my Ming Dao, it won’t be long before Sun Wukong will have the hope of breaking through to the Quasi-Sage level!
The difference from the time traveler's memory is that after the dust settled, even though Sun Wukong knew that Bodhi was one of the Buddhist saints, he had no intention of staying in Buddhism to become a Buddha.

Instead, he used his somersault cloud and headed towards the Flower-Fruit Mountain.

Compared to the high position in Buddhism, he would rather be a free and easy demon king in Huaguo Mountain, free and unrestrained, and spend the whole day with monkeys.
What's more, among the three masters of Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, Sun Wukong and Bai Mi are the closest.

On the way to the west, he already knew Bai Mi's identity and knew that Bai Mi was a disciple of the Guixu lineage.

Therefore, he is more inclined to join Guixu.

That's why he chose to return to Huaguo Mountain, looking forward to the day when he would join Guixu.

Sha Wujing, Zhu Bajie, and Bian Zhuang also left one after another.

The little white dragon also left, and the Buddhist sect’s idea of ​​recruiting pure-blooded dragons for the Eight Heavenly Dragons was shattered.

Fortunately, after this incident, Buddhism finally achieved a large-scale success, and Buddhist incense was born in all the heavens and worlds, which can be regarded as the achievement of the original purpose of Buddhism.

But just over a thousand years later, before Buddhism could digest what it had gained, an unexpected change suddenly occurred that swept across the entire Buddhist community.

this day.

A black lotus fell from the sky, ignoring the mountain protection formation of Mount Xumi, and landed directly in the Great Leiyin Temple, releasing endless demonic energy.

In just a moment, the entire Great Leiyin Temple became a demon cave, and a large number of Buddhist monks died. Many bhikkhus, vajra, arhats and bodhisattvas either died or turned into demons.

There were even many Buddhas who, seeing that things were going badly, did not want to degenerate into demons, so they chose to pass away and be reborn.

Jie Yin and Zhunti noticed the abnormality at the first moment and immediately took action to destroy the black lotus.

But at this moment, their faces suddenly changed and they looked up at the sky.

After some hesitation, the two looked at each other and finally sighed helplessly.

"After this, there will be no more karma between us, and the Buddhist sect no longer owes any karma to the Xuan sect!"

Since they were at a disadvantage, even though Jie Yin and Zhunti were extremely reluctant, they had no choice but to agree.

The reason is simple. This black lotus is exactly the twelfth-grade black lotus of destruction. This was done by Daoist Patriarch Hongjun!
The establishment of Buddhism was based on innovations of Taoism.

The basic Buddhist teachings created by Jie Yin and Zhunti were all based on the concepts of Taoism.

Therefore, since its establishment, Buddhism has owed Xuanmen a cause and effect.

In addition, Hongjun also has a preaching cause and effect relationship with Jie Yin and Zhunti.

In addition, Hongjun has a high level of cultivation and is simply not something that Jie Yin and Zhunti can contend against.

Even if they disagree, Hongjun can use force.

In desperation, they could only take this opportunity to completely settle the cause and effect with Hongjun and Xuanmen so as not to suffer too heavy a loss.

Afterwards, Jie Yin and Zhunti waved their hands, took away some of the elite Buddhists and 60% of their luck, left Xiniu Hezhou, and came to the Buddhist world that was opened up a few years ago.

Without the help of the two saints from the West and the elite Buddhists, Mount Sumeru soon fell completely.

The twelfth-grade black lotus of destruction absorbed the remaining 40% of Buddhism's luck and released more demonic energy, which quickly spread to the surrounding areas with Mount Sumeru as the center.

In just a few years, the entire Xiniu Hezhou became the territory of the demons.

at the same time.

Hongjun left Zixiao Palace and came to the top of Mount Xumi. He spoke softly, his voice resounding throughout the wilderness:

"The Great Dao is above. I am Hongjun. I feel that the Three Realms are incomplete and that yin and yang are lacking. Therefore, I created the demon race and established the demon world to improve the world order and promote the evolution of heaven and earth."

"From now on, all negative emotions between heaven and earth will be absorbed by the demon world. I hope the great Dao will take note of this!"

The moment the words fell, the avenue roared.

Immediately afterwards, a huge amount of merit was bestowed.

One third of them fell towards Hongjun, but were easily knocked away by him and disappeared without a trace.

"The Demon Ancestor has not returned yet!"

next moment.

This one third of the great virtue flew into Guixu and appeared above the Chaos Bell.

Followed by.

A figure in a black Taoist robe, swept up by the merits of the Great Dao, flew out of the Chaos Bell, disappeared into Guixu, and instantly arrived at Mount Sumeru, sitting cross-legged on the World-Destroying Black Lotus.

After digesting all these merits, his injuries were completely healed, and all the magic power in his body was transformed into demonic energy.

There were also some subtle changes in his appearance. At first glance, he looked exactly like Hongjun, but upon second glance, he felt completely different from Hongjun.

Another one third of the merit fell on the top of Mount Sumeru, opening up a vast world. Countless demonic energy poured out from it, plunging Xiniu Hezhou into complete darkness.

The demon world that Hongjun mentioned is the present-day Xiniu Hezhou and this vast world that has just been opened up.

Most of the last one-third of the merit went to the many creatures who had fallen into demons, and the remaining small portion went to Buddhism.

At this point, all the creatures in the ancient world finally reacted and were shocked.

No one expected that Daozu Hongjun, who had not left Zixiao Palace for many years, had now done such a big thing quietly.

Who could have thought that Buddhism, which had just begun to flourish, would suffer such a catastrophe.

To put it bluntly, the demons are growing rapidly entirely by relying on the luck of Buddhism.

Otherwise, even if Hongjun created the demon race, they would have to go through many tribulations before they could grow up, just like the human race.

Moreover, the demons are naturally opposed to Buddhism.

If the demons want to grow up, they will definitely be blocked by Buddhism, and may eventually die in the womb.

Unexpectedly, Hongjun actually used 40% of the luck after the rise of Buddhism and the countless Vajra and Bodhisattvas in Xiniu Hezhou as nutrients.

Allow the demons to grow rapidly and shorten the time by tens of millions of years.

Such a decisive measure is truly shocking.

This one incident alone completely changed the views of all living beings in the prehistoric world regarding Hongjun, the ancestor of Taoism.

In the past, all creatures in the ancient world thought that Hongjun was a saint with a broad mind, compassion for the world, and willing to preach to the world.

But after this incident, no one thinks so anymore.

Even those forces that are at odds with Buddhism feel that Hongjun's methods are too brutal.

Not only did they seize the Buddhist base that had been operating for many years right after Buddhism became prosperous, but they also took away 40% of Buddhism's fortune.

If it weren't for the fact that Buddhism has a strong enough foundation today, Jie Yin and Zhunti would have taken away the elite of Buddhism and preserved 60% of its luck.

If Hongjun did this to him, he would most likely be doomed.

But even so, Buddhism has been fundamentally damaged.

Originally, as long as they digested what they had gained from Daxing, they would be able to stand above the three religions of Human, Chan, and Jie, and become a force equal to that of Xuanmen.

Now their overall strength is even weaker than that of the Orthodox and Unorthodox sects.

Even if one digests the gains from the rise of Buddhism, one can only achieve a level comparable to that of the Chan and Jie sects.

The only thing that can still be explained is that the two saints of the West fulfilled their ambitions, settled the cause and effect with Hongjun, and no longer owed anything.

From now on, Buddhism is Buddhism, and there is no need to worry about anyone taking advantage of cause and effect to interfere in Buddhism’s internal affairs.

Huang Long naturally saw the scene of Hongjun creating the demon clan and building the demon world. His eyes flickered slightly and a sense of urgency arose in his heart.

The birth of the demon clan and the return of the Demon Ancestor made Huang Long see many things that other people had never noticed.

He understood the path Hongjun would take next, and also understood why he had a premonition that there would be a battle between him and Hongjun.

I also understand why Hongjun knew that the parallel development of the three paths of heaven, earth and man was the correct way of evolution and the only way that the prehistoric world could be promoted to an eternal world.

But Hongjun insisted on following the path of heaven's supremacy.

It turns out that Hongjun's Tao has nothing to do with the future of Honghuang.

At the same time, through this incident, Huang Long also learned a key piece of information.

Since Hongjun dared to do this, it meant that he, like Huanglong, was only one step away from becoming the Hunyuan Wuji Daluo Jinxian.

Now, it depends on who can take this step faster...
