Chapter 4575
"Smack …" Before the Mahavairocana Revered Buddha could finish his words, Zhen Kong waved his magic wand and hit Zhen Kong's head.
Under the magic wand, this Zhen Kong couldn't move. He was glaring at the Mahavairocana Revered Buddha, but he didn't expect Zhen Kong to suddenly attack. He didn't have the strength to fight back at all. Seeing the magic wand coming at him like a huge mountain, this Zhen Kong's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
In the blink of an eye, thousands of lights and shadows flashed before his eyes. There were humans and monsters that he had eaten alive, humans that he had burned to death with his flames, and even monsters that he had killed with his magic wand. In the end, all the lights and shadows converged to form Xiao Hua's figure, an indomitable giant that stood between the heavens and the earth!
Zhen Kong cried out mournfully, "Master …"
His tone was filled with reluctance, unwillingness, awakening, and regret!
However, all of his emotions were turned into nothingness under the magic wand.
This Zhen Kong didn't even have the time to scream. His brain exploded, and he died in front of the Rank Nine Buddhist Lotus. Following that, a primordial spirit flew out from Zhen Kong's body. Zhen Kong's eyes were sharp, and he waved his magic wand again. The Mahavairocana Revered Buddha cried out in alarm. He raised his hand and imprisoned Zhen Kong. He said angrily, "Ah … Amitabha. Zhen Kong, how can you kill without permission?"
"Revered One …" Zhen Kong giggled. "This fake disturbed the Sutra Seeking Extreme Bliss and wanted to take away my merits. How can I let him go?
Moreover, since he dared to be so arrogant in front of the Revered One, he must have something to rely on. If I don't kill him, won't I be destroying the prestige of Buddhism?
Revered One, did you not hear me?
This fake even called me master before he died. This so-called master must be the mastermind behind all this! "
A rare trace of anger appeared in the Mahavairocana Revered Buddha's eyes. He stared at Zhen Kong for a few breaths of time before he said dejectedly, "Amitabha. Zhen Kong, your killing intent is too strong. Although you have contributed greatly by escorting Chunzang, you have also broken many rules.
I hope that this is the last time you break the precepts. In the future, you have to take this as a warning and cultivate properly. Otherwise, the Sutra Praying in Nirvana … will be for naught in the end! "
As the Mahavairocana World Venerable finished his words, thunderous roars sounded around the Thunder Temple. Many places in the Thunder Temple collapsed, showing signs of decline. Countless Buddhist Kingdoms were rapidly annihilated, and countless men and women were wailing in pain in the annihilation.
Furthermore, the Buddhist light around the Mahavairocana World Venerable and the entire Thunder Temple was also declining. Billions of heavenly flowers fell from the Void of the Thunder Temple. As they fell, they withered and turned into dust.
"Master …" When Zhen Kong saw the change in the Thunder Sound Temple, he couldn't help but be shocked. When his gaze landed on the Mahavairocana Revered Buddha, he was even more shocked. He couldn't help but cry out, "Ah … Amitabha, the Revered Buddha is …"
"Si …" When Zhen Kong saw the change, so did the 65,555 Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Shocked voices sounded from all over the Thunder Sound Temple. "Amitabha, excellent, excellent …"
Half of the Vairocana Buddha Golden Body that was previously radiating light rapidly withered as the Buddha's light faded. In just a moment, it had turned into a withered grayish-black color. Although there was still some Buddha's light flowing on it, the Buddha's light was also mixed with a grayish-black color.
Even in the light condensed from the power of faith behind the Mahavairocana World Venerable's head, half of the light turned pitch-black!
"Namo Amitabha …" Namo Daxing Samantabhadra Bodhisattva stood before the Buddhist lotus and couldn't help but put his palms together. "Revered Buddha, what's going on?
My Buddha … Is there a tribulation? "
"Amitabha, tribulation is precepts, precepts are also desires. Desires can be fate, and fate can be the result!"
The benevolence on the Mahavairocana World Venerable's face didn't change. Then, he said to Zhen Kong, "Zhen Kong, do you understand?"
"Amitabha," Zhen Kong threw away his Devil Wand and knelt before the Nine Grades Buddhist Lotus. He said respectfully, "I'll remember your words, Revered Buddha. From today onwards, I won't commit any more murders. I'll do my best to escort Chunzang back to the Longevity Town and erect the golden body of the Namo Amitabha Bodhisattva on the River Tide Ridge!"
"Go …" The Mahavairocana World Venerable flicked his sleeves and said.
"Thank you, Revered Buddha. I'll take my leave now!"
Zhen Kong bowed. After he stood up, he stared at the Mahavairocana World Venerable's Withering Glory Golden Body for a while. Then, he lowered his head and left. The Guardian Heavenly King brought him back to the East Sea. For a moment, the 65,555 Buddhas looked at the withered golden body of the Mahavairocana World Venerable and didn't know what to say.
"Senior apprentice-brother …" The Mahavairocana World Venerable asked in a low voice, "Am I … wrong?"
"Amitabha, there's no wrong, and there's no right!
There's no right or wrong in this world! "
The Dipankara Archaic Buddha World Venerable chanted, "Zhen Kong is wrong for being too cruel. What's wrong is … the timing of the Nirvana Scripture Praying was wrong!"
"Namo Maitreya Buddha …" At this moment, beside the Mahavairocana World Venerable, the Maitreya Buddha World Venerable's golden body appeared from the void. Other than benevolence, there was also a hint of anger on his face. "World Venerable, I think … you're wrong!"
"Amitabha, what wrong have I done?"
The Mahavairocana World Venerable raised his head. He didn't look at the Mahavairocana World Venerable. Instead, he glanced at the 65,555 Buddhas and asked in a low voice.
"The World Venerable's Buddhist mantras are well-versed in the heavens and the earth. You're the number one person in our Buddhism!"
The Mahavairocana World Venerable glanced at the 65,555 Buddhas and said, "In this world, when it comes to seeing through the mundane world and karma, I'm afraid no other Buddhas would dare to compare with the World Venerable!
However, even if the World Venerable has reached the Golden Body Multiple Transformations and is close to the limit, he's still a distance away from attaining the Buddha Fruit!
Moreover, according to my opinion, even if one's Buddha position is eternally solidified and attains the Nine Transformations Golden Body, one would only be the lord of a region and the ruler of a world. Following the heavens and earth, reincarnation, and myriad eras, it still can't be compared!
The so-called karma is the long river of time and space. Any cause may seem small, but the effect it causes is subtle. No one can forcefully disturb karma, not even my Buddha!
The World Venerable saw that the karma of this world had already been formed, yet he still had distracting thoughts and wanted to interfere with karma. Isn't that wrong? "
"Amitabha …" The Mahavairocana World Venerable chanted but didn't answer.
"Namo Maitreya Buddha, since the creation of the World Venerable Buddhism Sect, countless Buddhas have been diligently pursuing the truth of Buddhism for countless years …" The Mahavairocana World Venerable continued, "… However, our Buddhism Sect is now divided into ten sects, namely the Attainment Sect, the Possession Sect, the Nature Sect, the Harmony Sect, the Tiantai Sect, the Virtuous Head Sect, the Zen Sect, the Pure Land Sect, the Vinaya Sect, and the Tantra Sect. Other than these ten sects, there are countless smaller branches. Is their Buddhism Sect the same as our Buddhism Truth?
In this disciple's opinion, not necessarily … "
"… This disciple thinks that our Buddhism Sect's disciples are now burdened by their physical bodies. They have abandoned everything in their physical bodies and don't want to farm or fish. They only rely on offerings.
If we Buddhas are pure of heart and few desires, it's fine. We can make a living with simple tea and plain food.
However, there aren't many Buddhas who are pure of heart. This inevitably leads to misunderstandings.
This is also the fatal point of the Confucian cultivators attacking our Buddhism Sect. The so-called vermin is nothing more than this … "
"… This disciple has seen the Buddhas in the Hidden Immortal Continent where a Buddhism Sect was established. They supported themselves and didn't need to solicit alms.
Similarly, they could use the property of the temple to support the old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled. They really did achieve widows, widows, and loneliness … "
Then, Namo Maitreya Buddha spoke of his thoughts and his recent enlightenment. There was no lack of inconsistencies with the Pure Land World.
"Amitabha. Junior apprentice-brother, what do you mean by this?" The Mahavairocana Buddha Lord listened quietly. In the end, the Buddhas were stunned and asked again.
"The mistake of the Buddha Lord has already been made. Moreover, the impact is severe …" The Mahavairocana Buddha Lord's gaze showed no fear. He looked at the Mahavairocana Buddha Lord and said, "This disciple feels that this mistake is detrimental to the development of our Buddhism Sect in the Pure Land World. Therefore, I hope that the Mahavairocana Buddha Lord and the Dipankara Archaic Buddha Lord will reconsider …"
"Only reconsider?"
Asked the Mahavairocana Buddha Lord. "Our Buddhism Sect's words don't lie in words. It doesn't lie in words. Junior apprentice-brother has spoken for so long. I already know what he's thinking!"
"Mahavairocana Buddha Lord …" The Dipankara Archaic Buddha Lord, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke. "The connection between the Pure Land World and the Buddhism Kingdom has been severed for a long time. Not only is the flow of karma blocked, the cycle of reincarnation is also in chaos.
Junior apprentice-brother's vindication, the birth of the Namo Mahavati Samantabhadra, and the mystery of the Namo Mahavati Samantabhadra Bodhisattva's voice of the world. All of these revealed a trace of chaos in the Buddhism Kingdom.
Also … the mystery of the true and false chastity is also the tip of the iceberg. With so many entanglements, let alone junior apprentice-brother and me, even the Mahavairocana Buddha Lord can't see clearly. Therefore, the Lord's judgment … "
At this point, the Dipankara Archaic Buddha Lord stopped. Half a teardrop flowed out of his eyes, and his originally miserable face became even more sorrowful.
"Whether the Buddha nature is more than the human nature, or whether the human nature is more important than the Buddha nature, our Buddhism Sect has never come to a conclusion!
This disciple doesn't want to be entangled with the Lord any longer! "
The Mahavairocana Buddha Lord's expression was calm as water. He said calmly, "However, if the Buddha nature is imposed on the human nature, using one's own benefits to overpower the Buddha's benefits, then the Buddha … is also a Devil!
Not only is my Buddha the Mahavairocana Buddha Lord's Buddha, but I'm also the Dipankara Archaic Buddha Lord's Buddha and the Mahavairocana Buddha Lord's Buddha!
I can't bear to see the Buddhas of the Pure Land World go astray … "
"Junior apprentice-brother, are you … rebelling against the Thunderclap Temple?"
The Mahavairocana Buddha Lord wasn't surprised at all. He said calmly, "Junior apprentice-brother, don't forget that you've only been in my Thunderclap Temple for a few years. You don't even know the secrets of my Thunderclap Temple …"
"Lord, it doesn't matter if it's a day or a moment. If you don't realize it now, so what if it's ten thousand years?
The Thunderclap Temple isn't here, nor is it far away. The Thunderclap Temple is in this disciple's heart! "The Mahavairocana Buddha Lord answered." As long as this disciple stays true to his heart, where isn't the Thunderclap Temple? "
