What they were fighting for was not Xiang Que and Ran Deng Fo's control over the great road and their understanding of the laws of heaven, nor did either side use too many magical powers.
What we are fighting for at this time is nothing more than the influence of Mahayana Buddha and Hinayana Buddha in the Western Heaven.
Logically speaking, the former is definitely not as good as the latter. After all, the Mahayana Buddha was only born a few years ago, while the Hinayana Buddha has been around for millions of years and has been deeply rooted in the entire Western Heaven.
Lingshan is the sky in the west!
But who would have thought that Theravada Buddhism would not show a crushing trend. Although the gap between Mahayana Buddhism and Mahayana Buddhism was obvious before, as more and more people change their sects, this gap is rapidly narrowing.
This was a result that no one expected, including the four Immortal Emperors who were thousands of miles away in the Pure Land of the West. At this time, they all showed solemn and unbelievable expressions.
Everyone realized that after this battle, even if Xiang Que was really suppressed, Lingshan still lost.
The Mahayana Buddha has sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
The competition between Mahayana and Hinayana is still going on, and more and more Western believers are beginning to turn to the side of Mahayana Buddhism.
This is spreading like a plague.
"This is the most realistic aspect of human nature. Whether you are a cultivator or an ordinary person, even a great sage or an immortal emperor cannot avoid it." The Nine-Tailed Demon Emperor sighed sincerely. How many years has Lingshan stood in the immortal world?
Once this time passes, the layout of the Western Heaven Pure Land may be greatly changed.
Jiang Taixu nodded and said: "The Mahayana Buddha said that everyone can become a Buddha, and the Buddha helped people become Buddhas. This is really attractive..."
Thousands of years have passed in Lingshan. Not counting the venerables and Arhats, how many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas have there been?
Although it is a large number, compared to the hundreds of millions of people in the entire Western Heaven Pure Land, this ratio is very rare.
Therefore, when Mahayana Buddhism emerged, most people in the Pure Land of Western Heaven would inevitably have a voice of doubt in their hearts, that is, what exactly are we cultivating?
We practice Buddhism, worship Buddha, and want to become a Buddha, but then we find that countless years have passed and no one has become a Buddha or a Bodhisattva in Lingshan. Isn’t that believing in Buddhism in vain?
It's better to change the door.
If you look at Mahayana Buddhism, it says that everyone can become a Buddha, and all living beings can become a Buddha. This is very reassuring and can be integrated into people's lives, rather than being aloof like Lingshan.
This is the selfish point of human nature. When they find that the belief they have always believed in is actually a goal that they cannot reach at all and is too far away from themselves, then they might as well give up this belief and pursue another avenue.
alright.
The spread of Mahayana Buddhism has become inevitable. At this time, let alone the Damp Buddha, the Lucky Goddess, the Medicine Buddha and others, even if you let the Tathagata Buddha come out, there will be no more.
Unless you completely wipe out the Mahayana Buddha from the Western Heaven, then you have to clean up all the followers of the Great Buddha.
But is this possible!
The golden body of Ran Deng Buddha looked at the shrinking power of believers in Xitian, but the trend of Mahayana Buddhism was visibly increasing, and his heart was suddenly filled with an indescribable sense of frustration.
He really regretted why he had taken Xiang Que's trick and brought him back to Lingshan when he was in Tushita Palace. He should have killed him when he had the opportunity, or he should have dispersed after the fight.
Escorting people back to Lingshan was definitely the worst decision that Randen Buddha made in his life.
He had cultivated hundreds of thousands of clones, but he didn't expect that in the end, he would fall into the sand with Xiang Que, and his efforts would fall short.
When the frustrated thought of Burning Deng Buddha emerged, suddenly, the world in the ten directions began to turmoil.
The Buddhist believers in the worlds of the ten directions all showed panic and anxious expressions. On the contrary, the fire of hell in the Quedao Realm was burning more and more fiercely.
When the believers in the Buddhist Kingdom found that they could not pray for the Lingshan Mountain and all their thoughts were interrupted, it was not long before the world in the ten directions collapsed.
There was an unbearable expression on the face of Ran Deng Buddha. He seemed to be having trouble making up his mind as to what choice to make.
Whether to give up or to persevere, these are obviously two unchoiceable paths before the Buddha.
At the same time, outside the Pure Land of the West, the nerves of the Nine-tailed Demon Emperor and the Xingtian Emperor also tensed up. Their bodies swayed slightly, and the next moment, they broke through a thousand miles away, and people appeared directly.
Beyond the Western Heaven, there is only one step left to enter this pure land.
Then came Old Man Tianwen, Yu Yuan, Jiang Taixu, Cui Shang and the general's masted ships, and they all came across thousands of miles.
At the same time, Ao Guang followed the general and followed closely behind.
Now we have reached the most critical moment, whether Lingshan will kill Xiang Que, this decision seems to be not far away.
If Lingshan really wants to take risks, the Nine-Tailed Demon Emperor and the others will be the ones to save people in the next moment.
If you don't kill, then everyone can only live in peace.
Therefore, both sides are tensing up and waiting to see how the situation develops.
At this time, not to mention the two parties, those who passed by to watch the theater outside Xitian also became nervous, because if the two sides started a war, the structure of the fairy world would probably be affected.
These melon-eating people are actually quite speechless. What the hell is this? There is no sign of such an unprecedented war coming.
In the past, there would be some signs of any war in the fairy world, but this time it came back quite suddenly.
Standing outside the west sky, Emperor Xingtian and the Nine-tailed Demon Emperor, who were cautiously confronting each other, suddenly turned around and looked in the direction behind them.
Then, Ao Guang and the general also turned their heads.
Hundreds of miles behind them on the sea, a cluster of dark clouds suddenly appeared. The clouds were rolling and turbulent. There seemed to be several figures wrapped in them, but it was obvious that people were aware of the people standing in the clouds.
, they are definitely extremely strong.
You can even vaguely feel the Immortal Emperor's aura.
The general frowned and said: "Two great witches are here. Are they planning to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and then take the opportunity to commit robbery?"
Emperor Xingtian said calmly: "I wouldn't miss this kind of opportunity to make a profit. It's so rare..."
Ao Guang put his hands behind his back and sighed: "Who says he is not the best troublemaker in the fairy world!"
"Here we come!" the Nine-Tailed Demon Emperor said with narrowed eyes.
Just when this tense atmosphere has reached the critical point.
Suddenly, a Buddha's name came from Lingshan Mountain.
"Namo Amitabha!"
The dharma body of Tathagata Buddha rose quietly from the top of Lingshan Mountain, then looked at the world in ten directions and said: "If it is not broken, it will not be established. If it is broken, it will be established..."
