Chapter 1320: Chapter 574: Qin Monk’s Westward Journey! (2)
"Master Xuanzang has profound Buddhist Law, surely he can spread the Buddhism of Qin to the West."
...
As Ying Zheng’s voice fell, all the people of the Daqin World were invigorated.
This act of sending Buddhism to the West, though without moving a single soldier, was like a boulder cast into a serene lake, stirring up thousands of waves, affecting the national fortune of Qin to reach greater heights, how could it not make every citizen’s blood boil?
This time, Ying Zheng announced the Great Qin Territory without the slightest concealment.
In an instant, all the Great Divine Ability Practitioners in the world knew of this matter almost simultaneously.
Moreover, at the moment Ying Zheng announced Xuanzang’s western journey, the tribulation qi across heaven and earth erupted like a barrel of gunpowder being ignited, pouring madly down upon the living beings on the earth.
The previously clear sky rapidly became overcast with thick clouds, as dark as if about to collapse the earth.
Lightning raged within the clouds, and the thunder was deafening. Especially in the Nan Zhanbu Continent, which was the core area of this great calamity, the tribulation qi had reached its limits and completely exploded.
At the same time, a bizarre message spread rapidly through the world at an extremely terrifying speed.
"Qin Xuanzang, the Buddhist master of the Qin Kingdom."
"Eating a piece of his flesh can grant immortality."
"Devouring him entirely allows entry into the Quasi-Saint Realm."
This message, like a stormy wind and rain, swept across the entire Nan Zhanbu Continent in an instant.
For a time, all the living beings in the Nan Zhanbu Continent, whether humans or demons and monsters, all fell into a frenzy.
The greedy desire, like wild grass, grew madly in their hearts, with reason thrown completely away at this moment.
Perhaps.
Once Xuanzang enters the Nan Zhanbu Continent, he will surely be targeted by countless individuals.
Western Heaven, Spirit Mountain, Great Leiyin Temple.
Within the Leiyin Temple, solemn and majestic.
"World Venerable."
Samantabhadra Bodhisattva frowned, his expression grim, stepped forward and asked respectfully, with a hint of urgency in his tone: "What is the meaning of this move by the Qin Court?"
"Why did the Qin Emperor expressly say this time it is not a journey to retrieve scriptures, but to transmit the law westward?"
At this moment.
Samantabhadra’s eyes were filled with confusion and perplexity.
Of course,
it was not just Samantabhadra, within the Leiyin Temple, many Buddhas and Arhats were all surprised, whispering to each other, discussing incessantly.
Some shook their heads and sighed, others showed anger, the entire hall was filled with an atmosphere of tension.
On the lotus throne, Duo Bao Tathagata sat serenely, appearing calm like still water, but deep in his heart, a storm had long since risen. His eyes slightly closed, his hands clasped, seemingly in tranquil cultivation, yet his mind was filled with countless thoughts.
"Qin Court... Qin Emperor, Crown Prince of Qin..."
Duo Bao Tathagata pondered secretly in his heart: "So this is your purpose?"
"The great momentum of the great calamity cannot be changed, but the small momentum can be manipulated by manpower."
"The reincarnated body of Jin Chanzi has been completely controlled by you."
"He has been influenced by the Buddhist Law of the Qin Court since childhood, now entering the West to spread the law, clearly intending to overthrow our Spirit Mountain’s Mahayana Buddhism."
Duo Bao’s mind was already shrouded in shadows, a hint of unease quietly growing.
The move by the Qin Court had already disrupted his original plans.
He never expected the Qin Court to be so bold as to make such a heaven-defying move.
To want to change the great momentum and heavenly destiny!
Changing retrieving scriptures to transmitting the law, though only a difference of two words, the meaning behind it is vastly different.
If the Qin Court were to succeed, the rise of the Buddhist sect would inevitably suffer severe damage, possibly turning into nothing.
"The Qin Court’s action is truly outrageous."
Manjusri, also full of anger, stepped forward and said loudly.
"World Venerable, our Buddhist sect relies on this great calamity to flourish, the entrance of our Spirit Mountain’s Mahayana Buddhism into Qin Land is the key to completing the great calamity."
"The Qin Court’s action is clearly intent on severing the foundation of our Buddhist sect, we must retaliate." Manjusri’s eyes flickered with flames of anger.
"Please, World Venerable, decide."
"Our Buddhist sect must take this matter seriously."
"We absolutely cannot let the Qin Court’s treacherous plan succeed."
Within the Leiyin Temple, many Buddhas spoke out one after another, their words fierce, indignation roiling.
Their voices echoed in the hall for a long time.
Seeing this situation, Duo Bao Tathagata still appeared calm, he slightly closed his eyes, pondered for a moment, then slowly opened his mouth, his voice like a great bell, resonating in the hall: "The Qin Court, seeking to cut off the opportunity for our Buddhist sect’s flourishing, I, naturally, will not sit idly by."
At this moment, although Duo Bao felt anxious inside, on the surface, his voice was firm and powerful, carrying an undeniable authority.
"Now the great calamity has already begun, the Nan Zhanbu Continent is already shrouded in tribulation qi. And as time goes on, the entire world will be filled with tribulation qi, beings entangled in karma will all be swept into this calamity."
Duo Bao spoke while lightly raising his hand, pointing to the distance, as if he could see the world enveloped by tribulation qi.
"The Qin Court wants to change retrieving scriptures to transmitting the law, their hearts can be condemned. But the great calamity was decided countless years ago, it is the opportunity for the flourishing of our Buddhist sect, not something the Qin Court alone can easily change." Duo Bao Tathagata’s voice carried supreme authority, his face showed no fear, full of confidence.
Evidently, Duo Bao Tathagata’s words this time not only had the intent of appeasing everyone but also revealed his firm belief in the rise of the Buddhist sect.
The preordained rise of the Buddhist sect through Heavenly Dao, after countless ages, how could it be changed by the small actions of the Qin Court?
"World Venerable is wise." Samantabhadra respectfully saluted, then asked: "Then what should our Buddhist sect do now?"
He slightly lowered his head, waiting for Duo Bao Tathagata’s instructions.
"Just follow the great calamity." Duo Bao Tathagata said in a deep voice: "Everything within the great calamity must be under the leadership of our Buddhist sect. We only need to proceed step by step, doing what we should, and the Qin Court’s conspiracy will not succeed." His tone was steady, full of wisdom.
...
Heavenly Court, Palace of the Polestar.
Within the Palace of the Polestar, resplendent in gold and jade, there seemed to be no change.
The Jade Emperor sat high on the Dragon Chair, his expression leisurely.
This time, with the onset of the great calamity, the Heavenly Court naturally welcomed it.
After all, in this chaotic situation, the Heavenly Court could also seize a share of the benefits.
"Your Majesty."
An Immortal stepped forward respectfully and said: "Now the Qin Court has arranged for the destined person to head to the Western Heaven, the great calamity has officially commenced. Should our Heavenly Court take any action?"
Saying this,
he slightly bent down, waiting for the Jade Emperor’s response.
"To cooperate with the Buddhist sect, our Heavenly Court has already made substantial contributions."
"This time, let’s see how the Buddhist sect handles it."
The Jade Emperor’s mouth curled into a cold smile: "Moreover, this move by the Qin Court is not as simple as sending a destined person to the Western Heaven to retrieve scriptures."
Beneath his words, the Jade Emperor’s eyes glimmered with a hint of schadenfreude.
For the Heavenly Court, watching from the sidelines and reaping the benefits is undoubtedly the wisest choice at this moment.
"Your Majesty is wise."
Within the Palace of the Polestar, all the Immortals and Gods exclaimed in unison.
And at this moment, within the Heavenly Emperor Palace.
In the Heavenly Emperor Palace!
"Husband."
The Yaochi Fairy frowned slightly, her eyes full of doubt, softly asked.
She approached Hao Tian’s side and gently sat down: "The great calamity has already commenced, should our Heavenly Court really do nothing?"
"If there is a true necessity, the Supreme will intervene, this matter has nothing to do with our Heavenly Court." Hao Tian slightly shook his head, said in a deep voice.
He leaned on the seat, his eyes somewhat weary: "For now, I only need to focus on healing my injuries."
"Husband, how is your injury now?"
The Yaochi Fairy asked with concern, very worried.
"In these years, relying on the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures stored by the Heavenly Court, I’ve only recovered by about forty to fifty percent."
"The injury to my Primordial Spirit is still difficult to heal. That damn Zhao Feng..."
A hint of hatred flickered in Hao Tian’s eyes, he coldly said, his fists slightly clenching, as though wishing to tear Zhao Feng to pieces.
"Rest assured, husband." The Yaochi Fairy said firmly: "There will come a day when we will definitely avenge this great hatred."
