Unexpectedly, the Dragon King of the East China Sea actually spoke.
"Master Quasi-Sage, I can testify that Master Shangxian has never used the Dinghai Divine Needle to kill anyone."
"He came to the Dragon Palace just to find a handy weapon."
"And all the weapon masters in my Dragon Palace look down upon me."
"In the end, my confused Prime Minister Turtle wanted to make the Immortal retreat in front of the Dinghai Divine Needle."
"Who would have thought that when Poseidon met the Immortal, it would be like meeting his master. The two liked each other."
"That's why the Dinghai Shenzhen got into the hands of the Immortal."
Sun Wukong glanced gratefully at the Dragon King of the East China Sea.
This dragon king is very honest.
Not only was he not angry when he went to his Dragon Palace to rob something, but he also helped him out.
It seems that we should get closer to this Dragon King of the East China Sea in the future.
If the Dragon King of the East China Sea knew what Sun Wukong was thinking, he would definitely regret what he had done.
Zi Zhi sneered.
"I didn't think much about it before, until today I saw this sea-fixing needle."
"I really didn't expect that Buddhism's plan could be so vicious!"
Sun Wukong was confused. How could he see the despicability of Buddhism from a stick?
However, Buddhism is inherently despicable, and Sun Wukong still knows it.
The Dragon King of the East China Sea is restless and has a strong Buddhist background.
On the other side is the eerie Huaguo Mountain.
No matter which party, I can't afford to offend.
He can only cater to this side first.
"I wonder what the immortal means by this?"
Zi Zhi did not answer the Dragon King of the East China Sea's question, but asked him a question.
"Do you know the origin of this sea-fixing needle?"
As the Lord of the East China Sea, the Dragon King of the East China Sea understands this.
"The Dinghai Divine Needle is a artifact of the ancient Dayu. It was the stator used by Dayu to measure the rivers and seas when he was controlling floods."
"After Yu the Great calmed down the flood, he stored it in the East China Sea."
I saw myself shaking my head.
The Dragon King of the East China Sea frowned slightly. Could it be that what he said was wrong?
"The Dinghai Needle is indeed a gift from Dayu, but it is more than that."
"Back then, Dayu controlled the floods and saved the people, and accumulated merits that poured into the sky."
"Part of the merit lies in the Dinghai Divine Needle."
"That's why it transformed from a piece of ordinary iron into a spiritual treasure of acquired merit."
"And Yu the Great did store it in the East China Sea after he calmed down the flood."
"But it's not your Dragon Palace of the East China Sea, but the eye of the East China Sea!"
"Because the Dinghai Divine Needle is here, the rivers in the world will be calm and calm!"
"But if the Dinghai Divine Needle is contaminated with the killing karma, do you know what will happen?"
The Dragon King of the East China Sea was puzzled and looked at Chen Fan blankly.
"At that time, the merit and virtue of the Dinghai Divine Needle will naturally be corroded by the blood."
"Without the power of merit, it is just an ordinary piece of iron."
"How can a piece of ordinary iron stop the floods in the world?"
"On that day, the rivers will overflow and there will be another huge flood!"
Upon hearing this, both Sun Wukong and the Dragon King of the East China Sea changed their expressions drastically.
Although the two of them had not personally experienced the great floods in ancient times, they had heard about them for a long time.
I heard that there were countless casualties and corpses littering the fields.
If something like this happens again, the two of them will be big sinners.
But the Dragon King of the East China Sea is still calm.
"May I ask the quasi-sage, what is the connection with Buddhism's calculations at this time?"
After all, Buddhism is something that the Dragon King of the East China Sea cannot afford to offend.
I saw Zi Zhi sighing softly, and then slowly spoke.
"It was Buddhism that took out the Dinghai Divine Needle from the Eye of the East China Sea and placed it in the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea!"
The Dragon King of East China Sea really doesn’t know about this.
But if it's true as I said, then the problem is huge.
Once something goes wrong with the Dinghai Divine Needle, the East China Sea Dragon Palace cannot escape the blame.
After all, the Dinghai Divine Needle is in the East China Sea Dragon Palace.
And as the Lord of the East China Sea Dragon Palace, I have to face its storm head-on.
"But, what is the purpose of Buddhism?"
asked the Dragon King of the East China Sea.
Zi Zhi shook his head, doesn’t the Dragon King of the East China Sea still understand?
In other words, he understands, but never dares to say it.
Anyway, in that case, let yourself speak out.
"Once the blood is contaminated with the power of merit, the Dinghai Needle will lose its effect."
"But Buddhism has collected a lot of merit power, which can wash away the murderous breath on the Dinghai needle."
"When all the people are in dire straits, Buddhism will appear."
"Under the influence of Buddhism, the Dinghai Needle has regained its function."
"At that time, the floods will be stopped and the world will be peaceful."
"Who do you think this great merit belongs to?"
The Dragon King of the East China Sea stayed where he was and said nothing.
Sun Wukong murmured to himself: "At that time, people will think that Buddhism is their savior."
Zi Zhi nodded.
"Although Buddhism requires a certain amount of merit to purify the killing energy on the Dinghai needle."
"But compared with the merits that follow, the power of that little bit of merit is nothing at all."
"It seems that Buddhism is saving all the people, but in fact it is costing tens of thousands of lives to gain the people's faith!"
Looking at the silent Dragon King of the East China Sea, I knew that he had already believed it.
It's just that he couldn't accept this fact for a while.
Zi Zhi decided to give him another dose of strong medicine.
"The way of heaven is fair. Where there is merit, there will be sin."
"The merit of saving all people naturally belongs to Buddhism, and the punishment of causing the death of all people belongs to you, the Dragon Clan."
"Your dragon clan's luck has already declined. If you are punished by the law of heaven again."
"Have you ever thought about how far your dragon clan will fall?"
The majestic Dragon King of the East China Sea felt weak at his feet, staggered, and almost fell to the ground.
Once upon a time, the Dragon Clan was one of the most powerful races in the world.
After the First Tribulation of Longhan, the status of the Dragon Clan plummeted.
After the Great War, the status of the Dragon Clan declined again and again.
Nowadays, the dragon clan has reached the point of being contentious and can only hold the position of being in charge of water.
What's even worse is that the once powerful clan is now the food of various powerful creatures.
Speaking of which, it is really disappointing.
Even so, the Dragon King of the East China Sea still didn't believe it.
To be precise, he couldn't believe it.
Why does Buddhism want to harm the Dragon Clan like this?
There is no grudge between the Dragon Clan and Buddhism, and there is no reason for Buddhism to take action against the Dragon Clan.
This is a matter of realm.
With the realm of the Dragon King of the East China Sea, he naturally couldn't see through Buddhism's calculations.
Because this is a long-term calculation!
Zi Zhi continued: "You also know that your dragon clan has long been in decline."
"Except for Qinglong, one of the four saints, there is not even a quasi-sage."
"With your level, you really can't see through Buddhism's calculations."
"After all, Buddhism has long blocked the secrets of heaven, so you won't think of this aspect."
"As for the purpose of Buddhism, it's actually not difficult to guess."
