The emperor sat in the palace and led hundreds of civil and military officials to greet him outside the city. The emperor also forcibly ordered people from all major forces to come out to greet him. The purpose was to intensify the conflict between Buddhism and the major forces and make the major forces regard Buddhism as a thorn in their side.
, so Buddhism had to rely on the imperial court and respect the imperial court.
As the saying goes, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger.
Purple energy spreads for nine hundred miles, and a dragon horse pulls a chariot. Above the chariot is a canopy of luck with a radius of nine meters. The strength of the luck has reached its peak, which is shocking.
"Coming."
Everyone looked at Li Jingang and were shocked in their hearts. The purple energy was nine hundred miles away. This was a vision of heaven and earth that only appeared when the Yasheng was born. But what is strange is that he only has the fourth level of Breaking the Void realm, but he
Why did the sub-sage have such a vision? Is it because he had made great contributions to heaven and earth? Everyone was puzzled.
The dragon and horse fell to the ground, Yang Sanlang got off the carriage, Li Jingang got off the carriage, and with a wave of his hand, Luan Jia disappeared on the spot. He pointed towards the dragon and horse, and the dragon and horse turned into dragon veins again and escaped into the ground. The dragon veins had been created by him.
The supernatural power opens up the spiritual intelligence, and after thousands of years, maybe it will transform into a real dragon.
"It's a good way to enlighten the dragon's veins." Great Elder Qingxu of Taishang Dao Sect couldn't help but admire him. He has now broken through to the level of semi-saint, but he still can't enlighten the dragon's veins and make judgments.
Li Jingang came to the emperor and slapped him on his head, saying, "I have seen your majesty."
Although he is now the master of Buddhism, he still holds the position of national master of the Daqian Dynasty and is a minister.
"The Imperial Master does not need to be more polite. He went west to say goodbye. Unexpectedly, more than forty years have passed. The Imperial Master created a golden age and made great achievements. I held a waterway ceremony for the Imperial Master. I congratulate the Imperial Master on his return and promote Buddhism.
Educate the people of Jiuzhou." Ying Zhen said.
"Come, come with me to ride on the Luan Chao to the waterway dojo." He invited him to ride on the Luan Chao with me. This is only for emperors. Now that the two of them are sitting side by side, this means they want to be equals!
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. Your Majesty is the Supreme Being. How can a humble minister sit with Your Majesty?" Li Jingang said.
"I said you can sit, and you can sit. Could it be that the Imperial Master wants to resist the decree?" Ying Zhen released a power of emperor.
"I don't dare, thank you Your Majesty." He was no longer pretentious. He was not afraid of Ying Zhen. Although Ying Zhen's True Dragon Purple Qi was powerful, he had now entered Taoism, understood the great way of power, and relied on Buddhist fateful supernatural powers to gain enlightenment.
Out of the law of destiny, Ying Zhen's True Dragon Purple Qi has little suppression on him. In addition, with the Ruyi Divine Needle, the most precious treasure of merit and virtue in his hand, Ying Zhen will not be able to gain the favor if he really gets into a fight.
However, the civil and military officials did not dare to speak out. The emperor was now so powerful that anyone who dared to disobey would be punished by death.
It is already a great honor for the emperor to welcome him in person. Now that the emperor invites Li Jinggang to sit on the emperor's palace chariot as equals, it is suspected of flattery. In the eyes of outsiders, the emperor is trying to support Buddhism, and Buddhism will flourish. Isn't this right?
This is what the major forces want to see.
Countless people gathered at the Water and Land Dharma Assembly. Some came to pay homage to the Holy Buddha, while others came to challenge him and prevent him from preaching.
On the altar, Li Jingang is sitting on the golden lotus platform. His body is blooming with Buddha's light, which makes him look extraordinarily sacred and inviolable. Sitting below are the great powers of the nine great immortal sects of Taoism, as well as the martial arts of the Spring and Autumn Academy and several great saint families.
The great powers, etc., and the great prosperity of Buddhism will harm the interests of these forces.
As for the Demon Sect, they have always been suppressed by the Taoist Sect and Spring and Autumn Academy. Even if the golden age comes, they have not been able to flourish. I hope that they will fight with the Buddhist Sect and eventually both lose, and the Demon Sect can reap the benefits.
"May I ask the Holy Buddha, what is the Tao?" said the great elder Qingxu.
"The Tao can be Tao, but it is not Tao." Li Jingang said solemnly.
As soon as these words came out, all the powerful people were shocked. Although there were only a few words, they contained the supreme truth.
"Dare to ask the Holy Buddha what is right and what is wrong."
At this moment, a voice rang out from the crowd, and everyone looked for it. It was a man wearing a purple robe with an elegant look. He was none other than Zi Donglai, the young Confucian sage of Spring and Autumn Academy.
Li Jingang's solemn expression revealed a hint of smile, and said: "The heaven and earth are divided into yin and yang, how can there be a distinction between good and evil? The so-called good and evil are just human hearts. In the beginning, human nature is good, good is not good, evil is not evil, good and evil are only in one thought.
."
These people asked questions to torture his Taoist heart. If he could not answer, he would lose face and it would be impossible for him to preach.
"I heard that the Holy Buddha understood the way of the Buddha and the Demon. He became a Buddha with a single thought and became a demon with a single thought. Is the Holy Buddha a Buddha or a demon?" the elder of the Shangqing Sect said.
"Buddhas and demons are all in one thought. If I become a Buddha, there will be no demons in the world. If I become a demon, what will the Buddha do to me?" His words made everyone present change their expressions. Who in the world dares to say such a big thing, let alone
He is also the master of Buddhism, a holy Buddha. If he becomes a demon, he will be the biggest demon in the world.
"The Holy Buddha has demons in his heart, but he is not worthy of preaching to the world, otherwise it would not be a disaster to the world." The elder of the Shangqing Sect pressed forward step by step and said.
"I'm not worthy of preaching. Do you, the Shangqing Sect, deserve to be the orthodox sect of immortality? I think that you are all demons." Li Jingang responded domineeringly, directly giving the Shangqing Sect the title of a demon.
"Holy Buddha, don't talk nonsense. Our Shangqing Sect is inherited from Taishang Taoist ancestors and is the authentic Taoist sect. How can we allow you to slander us like this?" the elder of Shangqing Sect angrily rebuked.
Even the elders of the other eight immortal sects showed dissatisfaction. The nine immortal sects were connected with each other and were all members of the Taishang Dao Sect. The Shangqing Sect was an evil demon, so weren't they all evil demons?
"Naturally, I will not target without aim. Let's see." Li Jingang used his inner demon power to forcefully draw out the inner demons of the elders of the Shangqing Sect. Although he is a powerful person with perfect Dharmakaya, he is only one step away from the semi-saint realm.
However, his will cultivation is far inferior to that of Li Jingang.
A black demonic energy suddenly erupted from his body, and he became possessed.
"He is possessed." Everyone was shocked.
"How dare you be so bold and evil in front of me." Li Jingang took action directly, struck out with his palm, and attacked him.
"Stinky monk, how dare you harm me." He was satisfied with the murderous intention and knew that he had fallen into his plot. He used some despicable means to draw out his inner demons and took out a sword to attack him.
He stretched out two fingers to clamp it and punched out. The terrifying power of his body shattered the vacuum and directly exploded his body. Even his soul did not escape.
A great power with a perfect body of law was killed like this. Li Jingang's strength is shocking. Is this still the fourth level of breaking the void? He is basically a half-saint. He can kill a power with a perfect body of law with one punch. This is definitely not an ordinary half-saint.
Saint can do it.
"Holy Buddha, are you trying to become an enemy of our Taoist sect by killing people so wantonly?" Qingxu said in a deep voice.
"Amitabha, what do you mean by what Elder Qingxu said? I was exterminating demons just now, and you all saw it. Could it be that the Taoist sect wants to protect the evil demons, and if you can't speak for the evil demons, then I have to suspect that the Taoist sect has colluded with the demons.
Heart." Li Jingang looked calm and said.
"Holy Buddha, you have to pay a price for slandering our Taoist sect like this." The other eight elders of the Taoist sect were all angered. He was so overbearing and unbridled that he openly slandered our Taoist sect for colluding with demons. He deserves to be punished.
"I am just telling the truth. It is obvious to all that the elders of Shangqing Sect turned into evil spirits. Even if you can block my mouth, you will not be able to block the mouths of hundreds of millions of people in Jiuzhou. Does Elder Qingxu think so?
?”
Qingxu was sweating like rain. It was true. Regardless of whether the elder of Shangqing Sect was framed or not, he was possessed in public. Even if they suspected that Li Gang had done it, there was no evidence. It would be difficult to stop everyone in the world from talking. If they had helped him
, is to harbor evil spirits, and the reputation of Taoism for hundreds of millions of years will be destroyed in one day.
They all know that they were defeated in this Water and Land Dharma Conference and could not stop Buddhism from preaching. The method of fighting the Holy Buddha was too terrifying, and it was a thousand times more terrifying than those Buddhist eminent monks.
"I have created a golden age and have contributed to heaven and earth. Buddhism should flourish. My Buddhism is the orthodoxy of the world and is recognized by heaven and earth. Anyone who dares to be an enemy of my Buddhism is a demon and should be punished by heaven."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present changed their expressions. Even the Emperor Yingzhen's expression condensed. Buddhism is the orthodoxy of the world, so what is he, the Emperor? If he said that he was an evil devil, wouldn't the whole world have to attack him?
We know how big of a mistake he made by supporting Buddhism and suppressing Taoism and other forces. This son is too domineering and will definitely become a big loser in the future. He will be a greater threat than Taoism and other forces.
Li Jingang acted so domineeringly for no other reason than to control Kyushu in his hands and become his voice. Otherwise, how to realize the ideal of everyone being like a dragon.
This world is a world where the strong are respected. Whoever has the biggest fist has the final say. If you are disobedient and dare to go against him, you will be beaten until he is convinced.
He showed off his meritorious golden body and was suppressed by the imperial capital's true dragon purple energy. Unexpectedly, a terrifying will appeared and bombarded the true dragon's purple energy. The true dragon's purple energy screamed. Ying Zhen, the emperor, suffered a backlash, and blood spilled from the corners of his mouth.
.
"Your Majesty." The expressions of all the ministers changed.
Ying Zhen raised his hand to stop them, and looked at Li Jingang with a gloomy look, displaying a thousand feet of merit and virtue. That will was not his, but the ancient will. What he preached was the general trend of heaven, and no one could stop it.
The expressions of people from the Taoist sect and other forces also changed, and they realized that the general trend of Heavenly Dao has not changed. They thought that after the end of the Great Tribulation of the Westward Journey, they had seized the fruits of the great rise of Buddhism and changed the general trend of Heavenly Dao. Now it seems that they are still too naive.
, the small trends of the way of heaven can be changed, but the big trends cannot be changed.
They deprived Buddhism of the fruits of great prosperity and only changed the situation slightly. That was because Li Gangang did not appear. Now that he, the man of destiny, has appeared, the way of heaven is back on track. Everything they did was in vain. They were just doing it for him.
Just wedding clothes.
"Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, walking in the deep Prajnaparamita for a long time, saw that the five aggregates are all empty, and survived all the hardships. Relics, color is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from color, color is emptiness, emptiness is color, and the feeling, thought, and consciousness are also like this.
....."
The message of the Buddha spread throughout the imperial capital and throughout Taizhou, and the Buddha's light shone universally. If you were sick, you would be bathed in the Buddha's light, and all diseases would disappear. The vision of thousands of Buddhas and sects appeared in the sky. Countless Buddhas and Bodhisattvas were chanting sutras, and the people of Taizhou knelt down.
