Buddha is the Tao

Chapter 224: Chapter 223: Desperate (Part 1)



Beyond the thirty-three heavens, there is an endless space, and the end of the world is just around the corner. In a tiny space, there may be a world of thousands of worlds. Some great supernatural powers live there, enjoying a leisurely and blissful life. If they are not familiar Taoist friends, there is no way to find a specific immortal mountain cave.

The Taoist with five-colored light behind him came out of the Evil Moon Three Stars Cave in Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, transformed into a five-colored long rainbow, and traveled for half an hour before reaching the heavens, and then went down to the earthly immortal world. While walking, he suddenly heard someone shouting.

"King of Peacocks, where are you going?"

King of Peacocks quickly stopped his body, stood still in the sky, and showed his body. He saw a golden light holding a garland canopy coming from the sea in the west, with fragrant wind blowing, and the light shining, accompanied by immortal music and Sanskrit chanting, like the evening drum and morning bell.

The golden light stopped not far away, and a figure also appeared. Kong Xuan saw a woman riding a golden-haired lion in the canopy of garlands, with a boy and a girl standing on each side. Below was a lotus platform formed by auspicious clouds, and the petals of the lotus were colorful, which further highlighted the extraordinaryness of the person.

"What a grand show!" Kong Xuan muttered in his heart.

"It turned out to be Guanyin Bodhisattva! Isn't the Bodhisattva's cave outside the South China Sea? Why did she come from the West? She must have come to Lingshan to listen to the Buddha preaching Mahayana Buddhism." Kong Xuan did not answer the question and changed the subject.

"The Buddha preached Mahayana Buddhism and held the Ullambana Festival. The King of Wisdom is also a Buddhist. Why didn't he come to the Ullambana Festival these few times and didn't listen to the Buddha's preaching? The King of Wisdom's whereabouts are uncertain and he is leisurely and relaxed. But today he is in such a hurry. Where is he going?" Guanyin Bodhisattva got off the golden-haired lion and smiled, still sticking to the topic, "The Buddha misses the King of Wisdom a little. He once specifically told me that if I see the King of Wisdom, I hope he will go to Lingshan."

Kong Xuan had important things to do and wanted to get rid of this annoying Bodhisattva with a few words, but when he heard the second half of the sentence mentioned the Buddha, his heart trembled and he said casually: "Nothing, just wandering around, going to the Flower and Fruit Mountain in Dongsheng Shenzhou."

"Oh? Going to the Flower and Fruit Mountain is like going east, why is the King of Wisdom going southwest?" Guanyin Bodhisattva smiled.

"Walk around first and see the scenery of the lower world. There is no rush anyway." Kong Xuan said vaguely.

"I am very happy to see the Taoist Master Daoming this time. I was rewarded by the Buddha and got a few pieces of eight-treasure green lotus roots. I would like to invite the Taoist Master to stay in my cave for two days. One is to reminisce about the past, and the other is to invite the Taoist Master to enjoy it together. Since the Taoist Master has free time, it is a good thing." Guanyin Bodhisattva was very enthusiastic.

Kong Xuan had important things to do, but it was inconvenient to reveal them. He just lost his words and couldn't refuse. He thought: "It won't take much time to send this Bodhisattva away. If I don't send this Bodhisattva away, it will inevitably cause some trouble."

"That's great!" Kong Xuan set up Xiangguang and went to the South China Sea with Guanyin Bodhisattva.

At the same time, a big problem happened on the Black Wind Mountain. The poisonous dragon didn't care about the auspicious cloud. There were many gods and immortals in the earthly immortal world, and there were many cultivators who had achieved immortal status. There were often immortals riding auspicious clouds to go out, and there were monsters riding monster winds. Some immortals even had their own mounts, so they didn't have to work hard when flying. There were also cultivators who didn't want to attract attention and traveled underground. Anyway, everyone had their own way, which was very convenient.

The earthly immortal world was vast and boundless. Just for the four major states, to go from the Southern Zhanbu State to the Northern Luju Continent, in addition to detouring, it was necessary to cross the vast South China Sea. Even at the speed of ordinary celestial immortals, it would take a year or two to fly without sleep. Those cultivators who had not achieved immortality would never be able to cross the sea.

Although the four seas are nominally governed by the four sea dragon gods, they actually only occupy a very small area, far in the sea. Like the ground, there are often giant demons and water monsters entrenched and commanding the navy. The four sea dragon kings can do nothing about it and the situation is stalemate.

Flying without a mount is fine for one or two days, but if it takes a month or two, even the gods can't stand it. So when the poisonous dragon saw the auspicious clouds flying over, he sneered in his heart: "He is just a poor god, flying so arrogantly, shouldn't I consider showing him some power to let him know how powerful my Black Wind Mountain is?"

The poisonous dragon sneered in his heart. Since he followed Zhou Qing and was able to teach him the orthodox cultivation method of Taoism, the poisonous dragon's strength has greatly increased. He is majestic and awe-inspiring. He led a group of excellent demon soldiers, fought east and west, conquered several mountaintops, and killed several demon kings who were originally more powerful than himself. He refined their souls in the black light divine halberd, and became more arrogant and arrogant.

The poisonous dragon raised the black divine halberd and was about to fly high into the sky to stop the auspicious cloud, but the other party made a move first. The auspicious cloud stopped as soon as it said it would, and covered the hill where the poisonous dragon and the 150,000 demon soldiers were.

In addition to the 50,000 elite demon soldiers, the remaining 100,000 were all coolies, but after following the poisonous dragon for so long, they would sooner or later learn some skills and practice the Dao formula, and their combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.

The outer periphery of the Black Wind Mountain is composed of five hills, which are full of disciples of the Tiandao Sect and the Dazizai Palace. The outer periphery is guarded by the demon soldiers stationed in the six mountains, surrounding it like an iron barrel.

The auspicious cloud is not big from a distance, but it is only when it floats above the head that it is realized that it is simply covering the sky and the sun. Before the poisonous dragon can come to his senses, a flash of light flashes in the middle, and heavy rain pours down. The rain is also a bit strange, with five-colored ceiling flowers falling in the middle, and there is also a strong scent of sandalwood.

"No, my king, there's something wrong with this rain!"

The monsters were very sensitive to the scent of sandalwood. Hundreds of low-level monsters were touched by the rain, and suddenly they became weak and numb, and actually showed their true form and crawled on the ground.

Several monster kings hurriedly held up the protective magic light, but they didn't know that the rain was very strange, as if ignoring the obstruction of the magic light, and it went through and continued to fall. All the monsters that were stuck by the rain ceiling showed their true form without exception.

"What a devil, it turned out to be coming for us!" Several monster kings who practiced magic weapons hurriedly sacrificed their protective magic weapons, and the pure green light flashed, protecting some monsters, and then blocking the rain. These magic weapons were all sacrificed according to the Kunlun Dao Jue passed down by Zhou Qing. There was not a trace of evil spirit, so the rain ceiling could not penetrate.

The poisonous dragon was furious when he saw that half of his demon soldiers had revealed their true forms. He raised his hand and threw out a golden talisman. He looked up into the sky and it became a large golden cover. Golden lotuses emerged from it, covering the entire mountain, and the raindrops could not fall.

Zhou Qing's skill in refining magic tools has now reached an incredible level. Once this protective golden talisman was opened, it was pure and vast, far superior to ordinary magic weapons.

After a while, the raindrops finally stopped. The poisonous dragon took the golden talisman and shouted angrily: "Follow me up. I see that it is a demon who is making trouble here. After catching him, I will definitely peel his skin and fry him in oil." More than 40 demon kings led the remaining 80,000 demon soldiers and rushed up. In just one breath, nearly half of the demon soldiers were lost. How could the poisonous dragon not be angry?

The demon soldiers who had revealed their true form twitched on the ground, as if struggling for their lives. Du Long didn't know how to save them, but he didn't dare to report to Zhou Qing, lest he be blamed. He would talk to them after the perpetrators were caught.

In the sky, 80,000 demon soldiers were like locusts. Under the leadership of their respective demon kings, they flooded the auspicious clouds.

"Who are you little beasts? How dare you hurt my soldiers here!" There were five or six boys standing on the auspicious clouds. They all had yellow eyebrows and bald heads, like little monks.

These yellow-browed boys held bowls and bottles in their hands, took bamboo sticks, licked the water in the bowls and bottles and sprinkled them down. The smell of sandalwood became more intense. Now it was obviously all sprinkled, but there were still a few crystal drops of water on the bamboo sticks.

Looking at these ferocious demon kings, several yellow-browed boys were not afraid at all. One of them stood out from the crowd and said, "The Buddha is about to come here. We are ordered to use the water of merit to wash away the filth on the mountain. Since you evildoers have escaped this disaster, it must be the response of heaven and earth. You should retreat and hide quickly to avoid polluting the Buddha's golden body."

"You little bald donkeys deserve to be killed. No wonder you are the ones making trouble. What a shitty Buddha. I will capture you and eat you first!"

The golden leopard demon king was extremely cruel. If the magic weapon had not been sacrificed quickly, he would have been beaten to his original form. He was angry and rushed towards the auspicious cloud with a purple gold chain knife, intending to chop these yellow-browed boys into two.

"Brother, the evildoers here really don't know how to live or die!"

The two yellow-browed boys who seemed to be the leaders sneered, and one of them took off a pair of golden halberds from his waist, threw them into the air, split them into two pieces, and fell straight down. With a clang, the golden leopard was covered in it.

Bang! Bang! Bang! The golden leopard struggled inside and couldn't get out. The yellow-browed boy pointed his finger, and the light on the golden halberd flashed a few times. Suddenly, there was no movement. The two pieces of golden halberds separated, and the golden leopard had turned into a pool of pus and blood.

"Ah!" Seeing that this magic weapon was so powerful, even the poisonous dragon was frightened. All the demon kings retreated together. The poisonous dragon had a gloomy face, pointed the black light divine halberd, and issued an order: "Let's go together, and we must kill these little bald donkeys!"

"Eighty thousand demon soldiers rushed up. The yellow-browed boy's golden halberd can't hold so many! I'll kill a few and take the magic weapon, so as not to blame the emperor." The poisonous dragon thought.

"The cultivation is so rude that even the Buddha can block the way, but there are still evildoers blocking the way!"

A voice came from the sky, and two more yellow-browed boys came down. One of them held a white cloth bag in his hand. Seeing the demonic aura and the demon soldiers rushing over, he was startled and opened the bag.

Chila! With a sound, the 20,000 demon soldiers who were rushing in front suddenly disappeared. They were all put into the cloth bag, and their lives and deaths were unknown.

The poisonous dragon was really shocked. He was so scared that he quickly withdrew his troops and retreated hundreds of miles.

"You bold demon, the Buddha has come, and you still don't bow down!" The yellow-browed boy took the cloth bag and shouted.

"What Buddha, how can I not see it!" Although the poisonous dragon was afraid, he didn't want to lose face, so he stepped forward and said.

"The Buddha is the ruler of the world, with an immeasurable golden body. How can you demons blaspheme it? Hurry up and call the Emperor Gou Chen to meet him." Another yellow-browed boy said.

"So they are coming for the emperor. These yellow-browed bald donkeys are too powerful. I am no match for them. Let's alarm the emperor!"

The poisonous dragon had no idea what to do. He quickly ordered the remaining demon soldiers to descend, and took the demon soldiers who had revealed their true forms into the cave to clean up the mess and see if there was any way to recover. He went straight to Black Wind Mountain.

Zhou Qing's face was livid. Liao Xiaojin, Wen Lanxin and others followed him. As early as when the auspicious cloud arrived, he found the abnormal situation. However, he was practicing his skills and didn't care. He thought it was a monster from some mountain who came to him. This happened many times. It was not until he practiced his skills for a week that the yellow-browed boy took out the cloth bag to collect 20,000 demon soldiers. Zhou Qing realized that something was wrong and hurried over.

Yunxia also knew the situation. She rode on the Holy Wolf, got the Pure Glass Bottle and Willow Branch from her master, and asked the Little Demon Sect to gather the demon soldiers who had revealed their true forms and wash them with nectar. Only then did they recover.

In a conflict, the other side did not lose a hair, while Zhou Qing lost a golden leopard and 20,000 demon soldiers, which was a huge loss.

At this time, the demon soldiers had all retreated and hid in the mountains. Only Zhou Qing and his disciples were left in the sky, as well as the eight yellow-browed boys on the auspicious clouds.

"Meet Emperor Gou Chen!" The eight yellow-browed boys hurriedly saluted Zhou Qing, very respectfully. If it weren't for the scene just now, Zhou Qing would have thought that the other party had good intentions.

"Who are you, why did you hurt my disciples!" Zhou Qing raised his bamboo stick, squinted his eyes, and had murderous intent.

"Amitabha! It's the youngsters who are causing trouble, why should the emperor be angry!" With a Buddhist chant, the dragons surrounded him, and a nine-grade lotus platform flashed in the millions of auspicious lights, on which sat a monk.

"Yellow-browed boy, return all these monsters to the emperor!" the monk laughed.

The yellow-browed boy with the bag obeyed the decree, let go of the bag, and poured it down. All 20,000 monster soldiers fell off the mountain. The poisonous dragon immediately reorganized and still hid in the mountain, not daring to come out. This was a great magic power and great supernatural power, and they were completely ineffective. Zhou Qing didn't want to ask them to come out and add to the laughing stock.

This monk, wearing a yellow patched robe and straw sandals, is very fat and has a big belly, just like Zhu Bajie, with bare breasts, big ears hanging down to his shoulders, a round face, and bright eyes, full of smiles. Seeing this monk come out, the disciples behind Zhou Qing seemed to be infected and couldn't help laughing.

Little Fox and Zhou Chen felt cheerful without a trace of gloom.

Only Zhou Qing was shocked when he saw the monk on the ninth-grade lotus platform, and his face was so gloomy that it was about to drip water.

"Namo Maitreya King Buddha!"

Namo Maitreya King Buddha is also known as Maitreya Buddha, the Buddha from the East, the laughing monk. Whether it is the human world, the earthly world, the heaven, or the underworld, the name of Maitreya Buddha is known to everyone.

In terms of magic power, this Namo Maitreya King Buddha spans the three realms and is invincible. Zhou Qing has heard a lot of rumors before he practiced Taoism.

After spending some time with Dragon Girl Ao Luan, Zhou Qing learned about the distribution of forces in the three realms, and also learned about the situation of Namo Maitreya Buddha. He didn't expect that the legendary monk would actually come to him today.

Zhou Qing was determined, otherwise he would not have endured the pain of ten years of magic fire refining. He didn't know what the other party was doing, but it was definitely not a good thing. With Zhou Qing's current magic power, of course, he didn't have the delusion of being able to compete with Maitreya Buddha, who was second only to Sakyamuni Buddha, the Buddha of the West.

Maitreya Buddha came down from the ninth-grade lotus platform, with auspicious clouds floating, and came to Zhou Qing, smiling and said: "It's me. I came here this time, first, to see the style of the new Gou Chen Emperor, and second, to make a good relationship with the Emperor."

Maitreya Buddha was fat, not as tall as Zhou Qing, but both Zhou Qing and his disciples felt that this Buddha stood between heaven and earth, penetrating the two realms, and they were like ants in front of it.

Zhou Qing calmed down, touched his bamboo stick and said, "The Buddha from the East is the Supreme of Bliss, with an extremely high status. I am just a wild man in the mountains. I followed the order of the Original Heavenly Lord to gather the demons from the three realms, but I have not made any achievements so far. How can I have a good relationship with the Buddha?"

Maitreya Buddha smiled brightly, and Zhou Qing forced a smile. He only felt an invisible pressure in his heart, which was not from the outside world, but from his mind.

"I am no match for this monk. Unless my magic power is ten times stronger, there will be hope!" This was the first time that Zhou Qing admitted defeat in his heart, "I knew it was inappropriate a long time ago. After conferring the title of Laozi Gouchen Emperor, troubles followed one after another. I finally let me recuperate for forty years, and then such a big man appeared."

The twelve Dutianming flags on his body were ready to move. Zhou Qing had no choice but to use external forces to mobilize the momentum of the twelve ancestors of witches. A breath from the ancient wilderness in his heart was fighting against the pressure of Maitreya Buddha.

Everyone around only heard the two people talking, and had no idea that Zhou Qing was in an awkward situation.

"He is the good fate that I mentioned!" Maitreya Buddha still smiled, and stretched out his fat hand to point at Liao Xiaojin behind Zhou Qing.

"Me?!" Liao Xiaojin only thought that the fat monk in front of him was quite funny, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart. This was the inspiration from Chi You's bloodline.

"The situation of this donor must be known to the emperor. Can the emperor let this monk take the bliss, use the Dharma to cleanse the evil spirit, drive away the blood of the great witch, and return to an ordinary body? This monk can accept him as a disciple, and it will not be difficult to achieve the right result in the future. I wonder if the emperor can give up his love?" Maitreya Buddha smiled.
