All that remained in everyone's minds was the vast sound of chanting, and the Buddhist light that bathed them suddenly became even more boundless.

"What's going on?"

"I was actually granted the Arhat status by the Buddhist academy!"

"Haha, I've been recognized by the Buddhist academy!"

"Heavens! Who could have done this? With just a single word, he moved countless Buddhas in the Buddhist temple. Such a magnificent spectacle has appeared before my very eyes?"

"Look, it's that man in white up ahead!"

The countless cultivators were extremely excited. They rushed over quickly. Although they could not use the flying technique in the capital, they could still use the shrinking-the-ground technique or other travel techniques.

Amidst the vast sea of ​​people, we gather here.

"Chen Wen, what is he doing here?"

“Look, Chen Wen seems to be undergoing a transformation.”

"What?"

"Isn't he the Buddha? Is he about to advance to a higher level?"

The noise was deafening, and all eyes, filled with astonishment, were fixed on Chen Wen.

Chen Wen sat upright on the ground, surrounded by Buddhist inscriptions. His eyes were closed, and countless Buddhist principles were intertwined in his mind.

At this moment, he seemed to have attained true enlightenment, his mind became ten thousand times clearer, and things that were difficult to understand before suddenly became much clearer.

After an unknown amount of time, until the Buddhist and Taoist principles in his mind were exhausted, Chen Wen finally opened his eyes and looked up at the thousands of Buddhas in the void above.

"With Buddha in your heart, everyone can become a Buddha."

As soon as he uttered the word, a vast Buddhist light appeared in Chen Wen's eyes, and an extremely magnificent phantom appeared behind him. It was the image of a golden Buddha, as if at this moment, a mysterious power was bestowed upon him.

Suddenly, a decree appeared in the sky. It was made by the Buddhist academy using special materials, and any cultivator who reached a certain level of cultivation could be granted a title and rank.

"You have already attained Buddhahood..."

A divine voice resounded through the sky, but it seemed that the words were not finished. A group of young novices appeared in the sky, but their eyes were full of fear, as if they were facing some kind of crisis.

"These are novice monks bestowed with titles by the Buddhist academy. Chen Wen's extraordinary phenomenon clearly indicates that he has attained the Buddha's position. But why are these novice monks unable to finish reciting that word?"

"Yes, is that character '祖' difficult to pronounce?"

What is the source of the fear in their eyes?

"Look!"

What is that?

All eyes were focused on the sky, and a golden handprint suddenly appeared in front of a group of novices, just like the Buddha suppressing Sun Wukong under the Five Elements Mountain. It was vast and magnificent, with boundless Buddhist light!

At that moment, the fear in the eyes of those novices intensified.

Under this immense golden hand, their bodies were crushed into a bloody mist, and blood rain fell from the sky, pattering down from the heavens.

After that, the sky cleared up, revealing white clouds and blue sky, as if nothing had happened.

But everyone knew that everything that had happened before had indeed occurred!

Chen Wen was filled with disbelief. He had clearly already attained enlightenment and become a Buddha, so why was this happening?

"Old man, do you understand now? There can only be one Buddha, and that is your so-called Buddhist temple, the supreme ruler."

Kuafu scoffed and said, "Now do you understand why I said everyone can become a Buddha?"

Chen Wen's face was full of bitterness as he said, "What exactly did I realize before? Was this so-called Buddha just doing it for his own selfish reasons?"

"But he gathers countless Buddhist followers to save all beings; there must be a reason for that, right?"

"I humbly request your guidance, senior. I am deeply grateful."

After saying this, Chen Wen knelt on the ground with a solemn expression, placed his hands on the ground, and kowtowed to Kuafu.

The saying "those who are accomplished are teachers" perfectly illustrates this principle: choose what is good and follow it, and choose what is not good and correct it.

In Chen Wen's eyes, Kuafu's cultivation was a thousand times, ten thousand times higher than his own, and the two of them were no longer the only living beings. That's why he was so humble and modest.

To put it bluntly, Chen Wen felt that the man in front of him deserved his respect!

"Because of faith."

Kuafu said calmly, "The so-called Buddha can be understood as the leader of a force. He created the so-called Buddhist cultivation path and allowed many cultivators to cultivate Buddhism. In this way, he sets the rules and reaps the rewards, and he takes the lion's share."

"And you so-called Buddhist practitioners, if you can't break free from the mindset of revering the Buddha, how can you claim to surpass the Buddha and then become Buddhas?"

Upon hearing this...

Everyone was stunned!

The Buddha is a supreme being, and in everyone's mind, he is a mysterious being in Buddhist temples. However, in the eyes of this young man in white, the so-called Buddha's existence is actually something that is crushed by others.

How...how is this possible?

In an instant, everyone's minds were filled with a roar. They found it hard to accept these words and were now being frantically bombarded by Kuafu's words.

"hiss!"

Aunt Xue asked in a deep voice, "How firm must your Dao heart be, Senior, to say such things?"

"Could it be that Buddha was really meant to be crushed?"

"If the Buddha is not destroyed, will a second Buddha not appear in the world?"

"This...this is absolutely shocking!"
