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 ...
"Amitabha." After being repelled by Emperor Gou Chen, Vairocana Tathagata did not act rashly again, but withdrew his magic power and returned to the Great Leiyin Temple.
In the Great Leiyin Temple, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas had not yet recovered from their shock. The magic weapon of Vairocana Tathagata, the Central Buddha, one of the Five Buddhas of Buddhism, and the Fractal God-Destroying Pestle were one of Vairocana Tathagata's magic weapons. Not only did it fail to kill Fang Jian, but it was taken away by Fang Jian?
This wave, this wave really cost us not only the Buddha but also our soldiers and weapons.
"It was obvious that Fang Jian's body was shattered and his soul was scattered, so why was he safe and sound in the end?" Bodhisattva Mahasthamaprapta asked in confusion.
Samantabhadra Bodhisattva said, "Could it be the art of incarnation or clone?"
"No," said the Vajra Indestructible Buddha, "the Vassa world will collapse directly under the mighty power of the Fractal God-Exterminating Pestle. Even if Fang Jian had thousands of incarnations, he would not be able to escape."
At this moment, Fighting and Victory Buddha, who had remained silent the entire time, spoke. He placed his hands in seals on his dantian, sat upright on the lotus platform, and with his eyes slightly open and closed, he looked down upon the other Buddhas and said, "When the Fractal God-Destroying Pestle fell, that Hongqing Zhenren didn't perform any magic; he simply stood there and let Baotanhua Bodhisattva strike him. His physical body was indeed damaged, but his spirit and soul might not be."
Guanyin Bodhisattva nodded and said, "Fighting Victory Buddha is right. We only saw Fang Jian's body broken into pieces, but we didn't see his spirit or soul. I'm afraid that's the problem."
Mahavairocana returned to the lotus throne, clasped his hands together, and bowed to the Tathagata Buddha, saying, "Buddha, can I get the Fractal God-Exterminating Pestle back?"
The Tathagata Buddha opened his eyes, then shook his head and said, "How did Master Hongqing protect his primordial spirit and soul under the Fractal God-Destroying Pestle, and how did he reshape his body after it was shattered? This poor monk also does not understand."
When everyone heard what the Buddha said, they were immediately surprised. "Even we, the Buddha, don't know the reason?" Sandalwood Merit Buddha said in surprise.
The Tathagata Buddha smiled and said, "There is nothing I don't know, inside and outside the Three Realms. But Fang Jian's origins are anomalies born of the Heavenly Dao. His roots are not within the Three Realms, but within the Heavenly Dao."
Upon hearing this, Sandalwood Merit Buddha immediately turned to Fighting Victory Buddha and said, "Wukong, this foot is much stronger than yours."
"Heh." Fighting and Victory Buddha simply chuckled softly, then performed a Zen bow and said, "This humble monk has long since achieved tranquility of the six senses, free from all false thoughts. All worldly affairs have nothing to do with me, and the myriad phenomena of heaven and earth are untainted by me. Karma does not enter the world, and the world has no connection with me. Namo Amitabha Buddha."
The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas present were already accustomed to Fighting Victory Buddha's attitude and ignored him. Only Vairocana Tathagata said, "Amitabha, if that's the case, I cannot retrieve this fractal God-Exterminating Pestle."
The Tathagata Buddha smiled and said, "If we can destroy the True Man Hongqing, the Fractal God-Destroying Pestle can be retrieved. However, the life of the True Man Hongqing is in the hands of heaven. Who can kill him? If we can't kill him, there's no way to retrieve the magic weapon."
Vairocana Tathagata suddenly looked miserable. Those who knew him understood that he was Vairocana Tathagata, while those who didn’t know him thought he was Mahavairocana Bodhisattva.
Afterwards, the Tathagata Buddha said to the Buddha Vairocana: "Pass on my decree. From today onwards, all disciples of my Buddhist sect shall withdraw from the Dongsheng Shenzhou and return to the Xiniu Hezhou."
"Follow the will of my Buddha Dharma." Vairocana Buddha bowed and responded.
Then the Tathagata Buddha said to the Amitabha Buddha in the west: "From today on, I hereby decree that my Buddhist disciples are no longer allowed to set foot in the Dongsheng Shenzhou. The Eastern Unmoving Buddha will return to the Xiniuhezhou and open a temple in the Dongmozhou."
"Follow the teachings of my Buddhist teachings." Amitabha Buddha in the West also bowed and responded.
Finally, the Tathagata Buddha looked at the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas and said, "From now on, except for the Western Niu He Continent, my disciples are forbidden to engage in arbitrary karma with the Heavenly Court. Those who violate this order will be stripped of their fruition and expelled from the Buddhist sect. Bao Tanhua Bodhisattva, who presumptuously created karma and lost his bet with Hong Qing Zhenren, was suppressed by the Heavenly Court at the foot of Mount Buzhou. This is also God's will, Sariputra."
Beneath the thrones of the bodhisattvas, a young monk dressed in a purple robe adorned with pearls stood up, walked into the hall, bowed, and said, "Greetings to the Tathagata Buddha."
The Tathagata Buddha looked at Shariputra and said, "From today on, you will temporarily take over the position of Bodhisattva Baotanhua. You will return the position of Bodhisattva after ten thousand years."
Upon hearing this, Sariputra bowed respectfully and said, "Disciple, I will faithfully follow the teachings of the Buddha."
After he finished speaking, a brilliant Buddha light flashed across Shariputra's body, and then he flew and landed on the honorable seat originally occupied by Bodhisattva Ratnakara.
...
The decree of Tathagata Buddha was issued directly without any concealment. In less than half a day, all the Buddhist disciples in Dongsheng Shenzhou knew that one of their Bodhisattvas had been suppressed by the Heavenly Court, and now all Buddhist disciples had to withdraw from Dongsheng Shenzhou.
After the Buddha's decree was issued, tens of millions of Buddhist disciples in Dongsheng Shenzhou did not dare to delay and immediately began to evacuate the temples, pack their bags, move the Buddhist scriptures, and flee to either Jambudvīpa, Uttarakuru, or simply return to Xiniuhezhou.
But the Buddhist disciples soon discovered that the consequences of Bodhisattva Baotanhua's arbitrary creation of cause and effect were far more than just withdrawing from Dongsheng Shenzhou.
Many Buddhist disciples discovered that if they observed the stars, the stars in the sky would become blurry.
If you use your magic power to observe forcibly, you will find that the stars in the sky simply disappear from your sight.
Later they learned that the 360 star gods in the sky wanted to settle the cause and effect with Vairocana Tathagata, so the 360 star gods in the sky stated that the power of the stars would not bless the Buddhist disciples in the next 3,000 years.
Vairocana Tathagata was already distressed because Fang Jian had taken away his magic weapon, and now Zhou Tianxingjun came to settle the cause and effect with him, which made him furious. However, since he had just "shown his face", he could do nothing about Zhou Tianxingjun's behavior, so he had to return to the Taoist temple in depression to go into seclusion.
...
In the world of Jambu, there are three immortal islands and Yunxiao Palace above the boundless ocean.
Three fairies with pure and beautiful looks sat opposite each other in the jade pavilion of the fairy palace.
One of the fairies, a lively and graceful female immortal, said, "Fang Jian is truly formidable. Even the Vairocana Tathagata's Fractal God-Destroying Pestle couldn't harm him. My second sister was only hit on the head by that Fractal God-Destroying Pestle, and she recuperated for a hundred years."
Another female immortal dressed in a pink Qionghua palace dress said, "Back then, I was only at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level, and I could only barely withstand it once. If it had happened again, I'm afraid my body and soul would have been destroyed. But now that I've achieved the Daluo Golden Immortal Fruit, I'm no longer afraid of that Fractal God-Destroying Pestle."
The female immortal sitting at the top was calm and graceful. She simply said, "Buddhism has suffered a great loss this time. After they withdraw from Dongsheng Shenzhou, the power of the Heavenly Court will surge again."
The beautiful and lively female immortal asked, "Sister, is there any chance that Buddhism will decline?"
The calm and graceful female immortal shook her head and said, "As long as the Buddha exists, Buddhism will never decline."
After hearing this, the beautiful and lively fairy felt a little disappointed.
The lively and beautiful female fairy felt a little disappointed after hearing this, but she quickly said happily, "Then this Master Hongqing can be considered to have helped us three sisters avenge the arrow shot at us ten million years ago!"
The woman in the pink Qionghua palace dress also nodded and smiled, "The Fractal God-Destroying Pestle has been taken away. This time, the Great Sun Tathagata has been badly tricked."
