The Western Religion is the greatest religion in the universe.

Its influence extends throughout the small, medium, and large worlds.

Whether it's the Western Sect in the Heavenly Profound Realm or the Primordial Immortal Domain, they are all just branches of its lineage.

Their strengths also vary.

The Western Sect of the Primordial Immortal Realm has its holy site located at the Great Thunderclap Temple on Mount Ling.

The temple is built on a grand scale and is magnificent in appearance!

Inside the magnificent Mahavira Hall, the Buddha Vairocana, the founder of the Western Paradise, sits in the very center, his figure as tall as a mountain, inspiring awe.

He was wearing a dark blue crown, which was inlaid with countless dazzling gems that shimmered with brilliant light.

A wisp of light emanated from between his brows, a light as warm as the spring sun, illuminating all things in the world.

The entire body of Vairocana Buddha has a mesmerizing golden luster, as if it were cast from pure gold.

His upper body was adorned with a variety of exquisite bracelets, armlets, and necklaces, which complemented each other and made him appear even more dignified and solemn.

At this moment, he formed the Wisdom Fist Mudra with his hands, wore an incomparably magnificent kasaya, and sat steadily in the lotus position on a golden eight-petaled lotus platform.

His eyes were slightly closed, and his face was peaceful and serene.

It seems as if one is calmly contemplating and experiencing the philosophical insights gained in meditation.

On the left and right sides of Vairocana Buddha.

Seated on the seats were two vice-leaders—the Guide and the Cundi.

They were also seated in the lotus position, with an elegant and dignified posture.

The Guide Taoist wore a uniquely designed Five Buddha Crown, while the Zhunti Taoist wore an exquisite hair bun crown.

Both of them were adorned with a dazzling array of jewelry, each gemstone radiating a captivating brilliance, making them appear exceptionally glamorous and noble.

Continuing to look down, you can see the remaining seven Bodhisattvas arranged in order in the main hall.

They were all dignified and graceful.

Some held ritual implements, while others wore smiles, radiating an aura of compassion and peace.

Further down, there are eighteen Arhats, Venerable Ones, the Four Vajras, three thousand Jiedi, and numerous holy monks and nuns sitting in neat rows.

They all closed their eyes, entering a state of rest and relaxation.

As a result, the originally solemn and majestic Mahavira Hall was now completely silent and tranquil!

However, there were two exceptions.

Those were the two vice leaders of the Western Sect, the Guide and the Cundi.

The two gazed at the Vairocana Buddha in the main seat, and then communicated with each other through their eyes.

However, they hadn't exchanged more than a minute.

The Western Paradise leader, Vairocana Buddha, who was resting with his eyes closed, suddenly spoke up: "You two, just speak your minds, why be so secretive?"

A sound as grand as a great bell resounded in the main hall, instantly breaking the silence.

At the same time, all the Bodhisattvas, Arhats, and Venerables who were resting with their eyes closed were awakened.

They all opened their eyes and, following the leader's words, their gazes turned to Zhunti and Jieyin.

Upon seeing this, the two exchanged a glance.

After chanting a Buddhist prayer, the Daoist Guide then spoke frankly: "Master, in the past six days, the Wen Sect has been recruiting young talents from the Primordial Immortal Realm and the Nine Realms and Eight Desolations, and its power is growing stronger day by day."

He paused, his tone growing increasingly heavy, and said, "Now, the momentum of the Western Religion is at its zenith, and its power has already been established. If we do not take effective measures to curb and suppress it, then the prestige that our Western Religion has built up over the long term will probably be completely destroyed!"

The Great Protector, Weituo Tian, ​​risked his life to uphold the dignity of our sect and was ultimately killed. But if we allow the sect to continue its reckless actions, will the Great Protector's blood have been shed in vain?!

Before he could finish speaking...

Another voice rang out immediately afterward: "That's right, Your Excellency!"

"Nowadays, in these four continents and nine realms, almost everyone thinks that our Western Sect is afraid of the rise of the Wen Sect and dares not confront it directly. If this continues, the illustrious reputation of our Western Sect will be destroyed, and no one will believe in our doctrines and strength anymore!"

"Do you think just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can ride roughshod over us and do whatever they want?!"

"At that time, how will we spread the Theravada Buddhism we uphold throughout the Primordial Immortal Realm and the Nine Realms and Eight Desolations?!"

The two men's impassioned words were like thunderclaps.

The sound echoed continuously within the magnificent Mahavira Hall, stirring the hearts of everyone present and plunging them into deep thought.

For a moment, the entire hall was completely silent.

Only the lingering melody remains, echoing endlessly.

After a long while, everyone looked up as if waking from a dream.

They all turned their gazes toward Vairocana Buddha, who sat regally in the main seat, awaiting his final decision.

......

Despite the intense gazes directed at him, Vairocana Buddha remained calm and composed, without the slightest ripple or disturbance.

He slowly raised his eyes, his deep gaze sweeping over everyone present.

"Do you all think so too?"

The voice of Vairocana Buddha seemed to come from beyond the heavens, ethereal and otherworldly, inspiring awe in all who heard it.

However, faced with this intimidating question...

The group exchanged bewildered glances, none daring to offer a response.

For a moment, the entire scene fell into a deathly silence.

Although everyone chose to remain silent, their silent and solemn faces had already revealed their inner thoughts.

Remaining silent at this moment may simply be an attempt to save face for Western religion.
