The twenty-sixth heaven is Chonghan Miaocheng Heaven. This heaven is where those who have attained the fruit position of Buddhism and the right path reside.

The vast snow-capped mountains, the golden wheel shines everywhere, the Buddha's light gathers on the top, and all spirits look up.

And on the top of the snow mountain, where the Buddha's light shines, eight huge figures are sitting cross-legged under the golden wheel of Buddha's light.

These eight figures each have their own appearance. Some are majestic and solemn, some have furious eyes, some have thousands of limbs, some are fierce and terrifying, some seem to be both sad and happy, and some are half crying and half laughing.

These eight people are none other than the eight great disciples of Mahavairocana Buddha, or the eight great Bodhisattvas of the Mahavairocana sect.

The Mahavairocana sect, as the name suggests, is the sect in Buddhism that inherits the Dharma of Mahavairocana Tathagata, and the Eight Great Bodhisattvas are the Bodhisattvas who pass on the Dharma of Mahavairocana Tathagata within the Mahavairocana sect.

The eight great Bodhisattvas are: Avatamsaka Bodhisattva, Guanjian Bodhisattva, Flame Light Bodhisattva, Defilement Bodhisattva, Extinguishing Light Bodhisattva, Six-Powerful Bodhisattva, Extinction Bodhisattva, and Ghost King Bodhisattva.

These eight Bodhisattvas are all Taiyi Golden Immortals. They originally fought against the Taoist sect in Jambudvīpa. Now that Xuanjiao has entered the world, they have been recalled to Xiniuhezhou by Vairocana Buddha.

At this moment, eight Bodhisattvas were sitting cross-legged under the golden wheel of Buddha light, and in front of them was a Dharma decree, the Dharma decree of Vairocana Buddha.

"Master orders us to enter the world of Xiniu Hezhou immediately." The Ghost King Bodhisattva, who was half crying and half laughing, spoke.

The majestic Avatamsaka Bodhisattva said, "We should follow our Master's instructions."

Guanjian Bodhisattva, with a fierce look in his eyes, said, "Then, fellow Taoists, please choose your own dojo."

The Dirty-Appearance Bodhisattva, with his thousand-limbed Dharma form, laughed fiercely and said, "Master Hongqing Fang Jian, I will finally be able to meet him this time."

Upon hearing this, the Bodhisattva Mie Ming, who was both sad and happy, said, "Master didn't explicitly tell us to deal with Master Hong Qing."

The ferocious and terrifying Six-Power Bodhisattva said, "Although Master hasn't stated it explicitly, it's clear that he sent us down to the mortal world to target Master Hongqing. Master Hongqing killed the Ten Demon Kings in the battle at Banjie Mountain. He will definitely not give up. If he wants to enforce the laws of heaven, he will definitely take further action. Master must have sent us down to the mortal world for this reason."

After hearing the words of the Bodhisattva of Six Transcendental Wisdom, all the Bodhisattvas present looked thoughtful.

What is more strange is that although they are sitting cross-legged under the golden wheel of Buddha light, except for Avatamsaka Bodhisattva, the other seven Bodhisattvas all have a gloomy and chilling aura.

At this time, Huayan Bodhisattva interrupted the other seven Bodhisattvas' thoughts and said, "Fellow Daoists, please quickly choose a Dao center."

Afterwards, the eight great Bodhisattvas began to choose a blessed place in Xiniu Hezhou as their own place of practice, and then they displayed their magical powers, left Chonghan Miaochengtian, and descended to the mortal world of Xiniu Hezhou.

Whenever a Bodhisattva descended to the world, strange phenomena would occur in places where there was Buddhist faith. Soon, all the monks in Xiniu Hezhou knew that eight Bodhisattvas had descended to the world.

Although no one knew which eight Bodhisattvas they were, the Bodhisattvas' descent to the mortal world was a major event and soon spread widely.

Especially those Buddhist temples and disciples belonging to the "Mahavairocana Sect" received the Dharma decree and went to the nearest place where the Bodhisattva was born to pay homage.

In today's Buddhism, there are mainly eight major sects, namely: Dharma Nature Sect, Dharma Characteristics Sect, Lotus Sect, Huayan Sect, Zen Sect, Pure Land Sect, Vinaya Sect, and Mahavairocana Sect.

These eight sects have different Buddhist teachings and practice principles, but they are all mainstream branches of Buddhism today.

After the eight great Bodhisattvas descended to the world and summoned the Mahavairocana Buddhist disciples, they issued an order to Mahavairocana Buddha, Vairocana Buddha, and Amoghasiddhi Buddha of the North to destroy the demon!

This decree was very simple, which was to ask all the Buddhist disciples in Xiniu Hezhou to follow the orders of Xitian Palace to eliminate the demons and evil spirits in all places and bring peace to the people of Xiniu Hezhou.

Thus, a massive operation to wipe out the demon tribe in Xiniu Hezhou began.

...

When the demon cultivators of Xiniu Hezhou were about to face a catastrophe, Fang Jian was receiving a distinguished guest in the Hongde Hall of Xitian Mansion.

That is the close confidant of the Queen Mother of the West, the 'Minister of the Yao Palace', Yao Hua Fairy Lady, who holds the rank of a first-rank immortal official.

Along with Fairy Yao Hua came three fairies from the Jade Pool. At this moment, these three fairies were walking in front of Fang Jian with lotus steps and swaying waists, and placed three white jade plates containing nine thousand year old peaches on the table in front of Fang Jian.

"Please take a seat, fellow Daoist." Fang Jian said to Fairy Yao Hua again.

But Fairy Yao Hua still shook her head stubbornly and said seriously, "Master Hongqing, the Queen Mother has ordered that I must watch you finish eating these three peaches with my own eyes."

"Then you can sit and watch me eat." Fang Jian said, "I feel embarrassed when you stand and watch me like this."

Fairy Yao Hua shook her head and said, "No need, Master Hongqing, please come in."

"..." Fang Jian looked speechlessly at the stubborn Yao Huaxian Ji in front of him. This feeling was not good. It was you who gave me the peaches, so why were you still staring at me like a thief?

Thinking of this, Fang Jian pushed the nearest white jade plate forward and said, "If Fairy Yao Hua doesn't want to sit, then I won't eat either."

"You..." Fairy Yao Hua paused when she heard this, then raised her eyebrows and looked at Fang Jian with her fairy eyes.

Fang Jian sat there, looking directly at Fairy Yao Hua and said, "First of all, these peaches were given to me by the Queen Mother of the West, right?"

Fairy Yao Hua nodded and said, "Yes, the Queen Mother heard of Master Hongqing's contribution in pacifying the demonic rebellion in Xiniu Hezhou, so she specially bestowed upon him three nine-thousand-year-old peaches."

Fang Jian said calmly, "If that's the case, then don't stand there and look at me like I'm on guard. You should have at least some respect. Otherwise, return these three peaches the same way you gave them to me."
