Chapter 1994 Buddha Takes Action, An Indestructible Buddhist Verse!
Upon hearing Lin Yao's answer, Li Changsheng was visibly taken aback.
He couldn't understand why the Buddhist verses left by the Demon Emperor had inexplicably become a vital part of the Buddhist kingdom's destiny.
"Even if this is a Buddhist verse left by the Demon Emperor, surely your Buddhist sect can handle it?"
"Furthermore, why would the Demon Emperor's Buddhist verses inexplicably appear on the lifeline of the Buddhist Kingdom?"
Before Li Changsheng could speak, Zhang Ling asked a question directly.
Lin Yao glanced at Zhang Ling and said calmly, "Actually, this matter wouldn't have been so complicated if some people didn't have their own selfish motives."
"It's precisely because personal interests were involved that things became complicated."
"You're all just vain!"
Lin Yao gave a vague answer, but Zhang Ling directly told the truth.
"Back when the Demon Emperor and the Sword God rose to power, the Buddhist Kingdom had already seen their potential, which is why they did not delve into the matter of the Buddhist nun Linglong."
"Moreover, I have read Buddhist history books, and you have not officially removed the Buddhist nun Linglong from the list."
"If I'm not mistaken, you're probably trying to use this method to ease the tension between the Buddhist Kingdom and the Demon Emperor."
"As for these two Buddhist verses, they were naturally planted in your very being by your own hands."
"Because the Sword God and the Demon Emperor were both rising new-era powerhouses at the time, once they reached their peak, these two Buddhist verses would also receive a boost from the fortune."
"There are no problems with the whole plan, and the Demon Emperor should be happy to accept your goodwill."
"After all, his Daoist partner was a Buddhist nun. Although she voluntarily dispersed all her cultivation, there was still some affection between them."
"But you never expected that the Buddhist nun would die in the Investiture of the Gods, and that the Demon Emperor would go mad and hate Buddhism because of it."
“With your methods, you can indeed forcibly destroy this Buddhist verse, but you must always consider the face of the Demon Emperor’s lineage.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Yao glanced at Zhang Ling and said, "You guessed right, that's exactly the case."
"The Buddhist kingdom did not have the power to destroy the Buddhist scriptures at the most opportune time."
"We have enough strength, but the timing for destroying the Buddhist scriptures isn't quite right."
"It is because of a series of coincidences that this Buddhist verse has survived to this day."
"Didn't you consult with the Great Shang Dynasty?"
At this moment, Li Changsheng, who was standing to the side, asked a question.
“We discussed it long ago,” Lin Yao said helplessly. “After the son of the Demon Emperor reached the peak, the Buddhist Kingdom consulted with the son of the Demon Emperor, the founding emperor of the Great Shang Dynasty.”
"But the answer we got was simple: 'Get out!'"
Li Changsheng: ? ? ?
Upon hearing this answer, Li Changsheng asked in surprise, "You can tolerate such an arrogant tone?"
"What can be done if you can't stand it? At that time, Emperor Yin and two others were known as the Three Heroes of the Chen Family."
"Throughout the entire Eternal Life Era, apart from the Four Heavenly Emperors and the Heavenly Court, no one else was a match for them."
"The most speechless thing is that the Heavenly Court at that time was established by the Imperial Tutor, and the Four Heavenly Emperors even received guidance from the Imperial Tutor."
"To put it bluntly, the Longevity Era back then was practically the backyard of the Imperial Tutor's lineage."
Upon receiving this answer, Li Changsheng thought for a moment and said, "It seems that's really the case. Then why don't you try to destroy the Buddhist scriptures in this era?"
"Because the Great Shang Dynasty still exists, forcibly destroying the Buddhist scriptures will inevitably cause fluctuations in the Great Shang Dynasty's fortune."
"It's not worth it to antagonize the Great Shang Dynasty over such a trivial matter."
"So how do you think the higher-ups will handle this situation?"
Looking at Lin Yao, Li Changsheng asked in a low voice.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yao glanced at the distant sky and said, "I am truly grateful that you came to save me."
“But if you want to destroy Buddhism, I will have no choice but to stand against you.”
"Because for me, this place still holds many wonderful memories."
The heavy tone made Li Changsheng raise an eyebrow.
"What if it can be resolved peacefully?"
"Then I will naturally be happy to join you."
“I like Buddhist countries, but that doesn’t mean I want to be a monk. If I want to completely reform the system of lay disciples in Buddhist countries, seeking external help is the best option.”
As he spoke, Lin Yao suddenly turned to look at Zhang Ling.
"You saved my life when I was in a black hole in the universe."
"What others think of you is their business. I will never renege on what I owe you."
"In the event of a conflict, I will guarantee that you will leave the Buddhist Kingdom alive."
......
Mahavira Hall.
Countless eminent monks sat cross-legged around the hall, creating an atmosphere of extreme solemnity.
Interestingly, despite the momentous nature of this matter, Bai Zhi, the Buddha, remained completely silent throughout.
"May I ask Buddha, how should Li Changsheng and Zhang Ling in the Buddhist Kingdom be dealt with?"
A Bodhisattva spoke up to ask a question.
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi, dressed in a golden cassock, said softly, "The two of them did not commit any evil deeds in my Buddhist kingdom, so there is no need to punish them."
"How should the Yin Emperor respond?"
In response to the Bodhisattva's question, Bai Zhi opened her eyes slightly and asked, "Has the Yin Emperor arrived?"
"no!"
"Then let's wait until Emperor Yin arrives before we talk about it."
After saying that, Bai Zhi closed her eyes again.
Clearly, he was retaliating against the conservative forces within the Buddhist kingdom.
Seeing that Bai Zhi was unwilling to take on the main responsibility, the "fat man" next to her said with a smile.
"Since Buddha has no objection to this matter, may I handle it?"
"Since the Future Buddha is willing to lend a hand, then this matter will be entrusted to you."
"Thank you Lord Buddha!"
The future Buddha clasped his hands together in a gesture of respect. Li Changsheng and Zhang Ling, who were touring the Buddhist kingdom, were completely unaware that a Buddha was about to make a move against them.
......
A remote place.
"It's really not me!"
"If I did it, how could I deny it?"
"Besides, my methods aren't that gentle, so please have some faith in me, okay?"
Looking at the several illusory figures in front of him, Chen Changsheng gave a speechless explanation.
Unfortunately, those illusory figures didn't seem to believe him.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng also lost his temper.
"No, you guys are determined to cause trouble for me, aren't you?"
"If that's the case, then I'll stop the virtual world plan and play with you guys for a bit."
"I'm not very confident in killing you, but destroying the Eternal Life Era is something I'm quite adept at."
"If you really don't want to find a path to immortality, I'll play along to the end!"
Seeing that Chen Changsheng was truly enraged, one of the phantom figures spoke up, saying, "'Buddha' has indeed gone too far by harboring murderous intent towards you."
“But you should know very well that we will not allow this to happen.”
“We can understand your desire to take revenge on Buddhism, but is it a bit too impulsive to actually destroy Buddhism?”
"I've been so busy lately, I don't have time to destroy any Buddhist teachings."
"If I start destroying Buddhism now, will I still be able to run my virtual world?"
