Fang Jian from Earth became an immortal official in the Heavenly Court. Not only does he have a golden finger, but the Jade Emperor also values him.
So do you think Fang Jian will pretend to ...
Tang Yu was startled when he heard this, then shrank his neck and said awkwardly, "Sir Shangshu, don't joke."
The Four Directions Divine Lords also looked at Fang Jian, and heard the Eastern Azure Dragon Divine Lord Meng Zhang say, "Master Hongqing's divine power has spread throughout the Three Realms. I'm afraid he's even more powerful than the Three Altars Sea Assembly Great God and Master Erlang Xiansheng."
Upon hearing this, the other three gods nodded in affirmation.
He subdued eight Bodhisattvas of the Mahavairocana Sect in one fell swoop. There are not many gods below the Golden Immortal in Heaven who have such achievements.
Even Nezha and Erlang Shen did not have such a record, because they basically had no conflicts with Buddhism. Even as immortal officials, there was no record of them suppressing Buddhist Bodhisattvas.
Fang Jian was a pioneer in the Heavenly Court. In the past, when the immortal officials of the Heavenly Court met great Taoists and Buddhists, they would do favors if they could, and would never enforce the Heavenly Rules as recklessly as Fang Jian did.
The saying "Do not punish Taoists or Buddhists, and do not treat demons with courtesy" was the way the Celestial Court's immortal officials enforced the law before Fang Jian arrived. Another way to describe it is "Strike hard against demons, but be submissive to Taoists and Buddhists."
However, this situation changed completely as soon as Fang Jian became the judge of Heaven. In Fang Jian's hands, it didn't matter whether you were a Taoist or a Buddhist, as long as you violated the Heavenly Law, you would be unforgivable.
Perhaps, this is why the Great Venerable values Fang Jian so much, the Four Directions Gods thought secretly in their hearts.
At this moment, a ray of fairy light suddenly descended from the sky, and then a messenger from Taixuandu Province flew in front of Fang Jian.
The messenger bowed to Fang Jian, then pointed at the talisman in his hand and said, "Master Hongqing, this is the decree of the great lord."
Upon hearing this, Fang Jian immediately bowed solemnly and said, "Your Highness Fang Jian accepts your order."
Tang Yu also hurriedly followed Fang Jian and bowed. Then he heard the messenger's voice loudly say: "The great master has decreed that the eight great bodhisattvas of the Great Sun Sect will be pardoned from their death sentences. The remaining crimes will be dealt with by the master Hongqing."
Upon hearing this, Fang Jian immediately understood that Guanyin Bodhisattva had made a deal with the Heavenly Court on behalf of Buddhism, so he bowed and said, "I will obey the order."
Although Taixuandu Province pardoned the Eight Great Bodhisattvas from death, Fang Jian was not angry at all. As long as the Eight Great Bodhisattvas were still in his hands, he would let them know what "life is worse than death" meant.
"Thank you very much, great envoy." Guanyin bowed towards the thirty-six heavens, then turned around and prepared to leave.
But at this moment Fang Jian suddenly caught up and said, "Bodhisattva, please stay."
Guanyin turned around and looked at Fang Jian with clear and bright eyes.
Then Fang Jian smiled and said, "Buddha, I will repay the favor you gave me, the Immortal Jade Body."
"..." Guanyin Bodhisattva laughed when she heard this, raised her finger and pointed at Fang Jian's eyebrows and said, "You are good at bargaining."
Fang Jian chuckled and said, "I don't have any tight headband on my head."
Guanyin's eyes flashed, and she stared at Fang Jian for a moment, then said, "Because you are not a monkey."
After he finished speaking, a flash of Buddha light appeared under the feet of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and then he disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Fang Jian looked at the sky with white clouds floating in front of him, and Guanyin's words echoed in his mind, "Because you are not a monkey."
There are so many implications in Guanyin Bodhisattva's words. Is she saying that she doesn't have the same rebellious spirit as the monkeys? Or is there something else going on?
However, no matter what it meant, Fang Jian's heart remained unmoved. "The world already has a monkey, but it also needs a Fang Jian."
...
After sending Guanyin Bodhisattva away, Fang Jian returned and said to the Ghost King Bodhisattva, "Hand over Zhengshan Mingwang."
The Ghost King Bodhisattva was frightened by the Vairocana Buddha's Pestle and dared not resist at all. Upon hearing this, he immediately released the Righteous and Good Wisdom King.
When Zhengshan Mingwang first appeared, he didn't understand what was happening, but when he saw the eight Bodhisattvas of the Mahavairocana sect kneeling there, he was so shocked that he was speechless.
Fang Jian just glanced at Zhengshan Mingwang indifferently, then raised the Vairocana Samurai and smashed it down at Zhengshan Mingwang.
Before Zhengshan Mingwang could react, he was struck to death by the Vairocana Buddha's pestle. The Eight Great Bodhisattvas have Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva to plead for him, but you, Zhengshan Mingwang, do not have that.
Then Fang Jian used the Vairocana Buddha Pestle to pluck out the three flowers from the tops of the eight great Bodhisattvas and suppressed them in eight golden bottles.
Without the three flowers on their heads, the eight great Bodhisattvas' magic power plummeted instantly. Although they still had the power of Taiyi Golden Immortal, it had been weakened more than a hundred times compared to before.
The most important thing is that the three flowers on their heads are in Fang Jian's hands, which means that all their cultivation is entrusted to Fang Jian. Once Fang Jian is unhappy and breaks the three flowers on their heads one day, they will immediately become mortals.
The eight great Bodhisattvas whose three flowers had been plucked from their heads all collapsed at this moment.
After suppressing the three flowers on the tops of the eight great bodhisattvas, Fang Jian said to Tang Yu, "Catch him."
Tang Yu immediately stepped forward, took out the immortal rope and tied up the eight Bodhisattvas, then called a team of heavenly soldiers to take the eight Bodhisattvas away.
The monks who were so happy before all fell silent at this moment, hiding their heads for fear of attracting Fang Jian's attention.
When Anya saw Zhengshan Mingwang being beaten to death, she was completely desperate, but her strong desire to survive made her react immediately. She immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Fang Jian, saying: "God, I am innocent, I was used! I... I was forcibly captured by Huayan Treasure Temple, I was forced..."
"Who is she?" Fang Jian pointed at Anya who was kowtowing below and asked Tang Yu.
Upon hearing this, Tang Yu immediately spoke up, "She is the Anya that Huo Xunyan mentioned, the consort of King Zhengshan Ming."
