In the 9900th year of the Blue Star Xia calendar,

the Buddhist sect in the Tianbei Star Region of the Mahayana Star had just stabilized. At this time, twenty years had passed since the battle in the unknown star region.

At that time, the Buddhist sect admitted defeat and left the unknown star region, but their troubles were not over, because the Buddhist sect lost almost half of its troops in the Tianbei Star Region, which made their strength particularly empty.

The power of the Buddhist sect in the Tianbei Star Region was originally comparable to that of the Heavenly Court, and the Buddhist sect was more proactive and infiltrated many planets in the Heavenly Court. Therefore, after the battle in the unknown star region, the Heavenly Court was ready to move and wanted to completely eliminate the power of the Buddhist sect from all planets. After

thousands and tens of thousands of years of efforts, the Buddhist sect was naturally unwilling to fail again, so in the past twenty years, the power of the Buddhist sect in the Tianbei Star Region has been constantly running around to put out fires, and it took an unknown amount of effort and hard work to stabilize the situation.

Things have relaxed a little, and the Buddhist sect is also discussing the gains and losses of this incident and making a post-war summary. Compared with the Heavenly Court, the Buddhist sect is more proactive in some aspects, and they are not corrupt at all.

"In this battle, our Buddhist sect suffered heavy losses, and our

Mahayana Star suffered heavy losses. Eighty Bodhisattvas and one thousand two hundred Arhats went to the battle, but only eighteen Bodhisattvas and three hundred and sixty Arhats came back..." Huikong Bodhisattva convened the high-level officials of Mahayana Star to discuss and summarize the battle first. As the main force in this battle, Mahayana Star lost more than half, but almost three quarters. This is also because they are too strong and have been taken care of by the Heavenly Court.

"The key to the gains and losses of this battle lies in the Blue Star in the Tiannan Star Region. The Blue Star cultivators are weak, but their technological weapons are extremely powerful, especially they are good at long-range strikes..."

Huikong Bodhisattva continued. Although he has been putting out fires everywhere in recent years, Mahayana Star has actually already summarized the war, and even sent many spies to the Heavenly Court to collect news about Blue Star.

Looking back on the entire war, from the battlefield of the True Buddha Immortal to the battlefield of the Buddhist cultivators and the immortal cultivators, in fact, the Buddhist sect did nothing wrong. Compared with the previous war, they were more prepared and more powerful.

Logically speaking, they should have won. It was their due. Throughout the battlefield, the Buddhist sect had always been superior. In terms of manpower, the ratio was about three to two. As for morale, the Buddhist sect was not inferior at all. Many Buddhist cultivators blew themselves up on the battlefield.

The only variable was the thousands of space battleships on Blue Star. They were not familiar with the fighting style of space battleships, and did not follow Ci En's advice, so they were passively beaten everywhere on the battlefield, and seemed to have no ability to fight back.

This change frightened the Buddhist sect, because they thought after the war that they had no way to defeat the enemy. The Buddhist sect naturally had no shortage of long-range attack methods, but their long-range was different from that of Blue Star. The

Buddhist sect's long-range attack methods were within the range of tens of kilometers to ten thousand kilometers. Within this range, their attack methods would not be weakened much, but once they exceeded this range and reached a distance of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of kilometers, their power would be seriously weakened.

The long-range of Blue Star is different. Hundreds of thousands of kilometers is normal, because the two sides have different ways of stimulating. The long-range means of Buddhism and immortal cultivators are stimulated by their own spiritual power. The spiritual energy required for attack and flight are integrated, so the farther the distance, the weaker the power. On Blue Star, it is separate, just like a cannonball. The firing pin stimulates the gunpowder at the bottom of the cannonball, allowing the cannonball to gain kinetic energy. The explosion after landing is additional gunpowder.

In space, although cannonballs are no longer used, their design concepts are the same, so the technological weapons of Blue Star can fly very far.

What the Buddhist sect is worried about now is how to crack the attacks of these space battleships. They have thought of many ways, such as the Buddha Realm and the battle formation, which can actually restrain the space battleships, but this requires the most ideal state. In reality, they have tried it and it doesn't work at all, because Blue Star cannot send battleships to fight alone, and they all fight with multiple arms.

When Huikong finished speaking, all the high-level Buddhists present looked extremely ugly. They had not thought of how to restrain Blue Star. When they thought of the cheapness of Blue Star's technological weapons, they felt sick, because such weapons can be mass-produced, and the cost is too cheap compared to their Buddhist cultivation.

"Ci En"

Huikong saw that everyone was silent and didn't talk too much, so he spoke directly. Then someone pushed the door in. It was the Bodhisattva Ci En of Da En Temple.

Ci En and the other five enlightened Bodhisattvas settled in Dacheng Star. They also followed Huikong and others to the battlefield. In the end, only Ci En came back alive. This was Huikong who paid a price to save him, because in the battle, Huikong actually found something wrong, so he deliberately saved Ci En who knew Blue Star best.

"Brother,"

Ci'en saluted everyone. Although they were all Bodhisattvas, their status was different.

"Ci'en, in Buddhism, you are the best in understanding Blue Star. Tell me, is there any way to destroy Blue Star's space battleships?

" "Reporting to Brother, there is no way at the moment."

"No way at the moment, will it be possible in the future?"

"Yes, in the mortal world who does not understand cultivation, bows and arrows are very scary weapons. On the battlefield, to deal with bows and arrows, you either have to defend with shields or use arrows against arrows.

The biggest feature of Blue Star's space battleships is that they can attack the enemy at a distance of hundreds of thousands or millions of kilometers, and there are so many of them that even if we use the Buddha domain or battle formation, it is difficult to resist. They can break through by concentrated fire.

In the past, in the Tiannan Star Region, our method was to select Buddhist practitioners who were good at escaping speed, quickly approach the space battleships, and destroy them, but this trick gradually stopped working. The number of masters on Blue Star is increasing day by day. They use masters as a barrier, and it is difficult for us to break through, so we can only go head-to-head, using long-range means to deal with long-range means."

"The current long-range attack secrets of Buddhism cannot reach this distance, unless hundreds or thousands of masters are gathered to form a battle formation. However, in this case, the target is too big and the battle formation can be easily broken."

"Yes, brother, so my idea is that we should also develop technology and use technology to counter technology."

Ci'en and Huikong sang the same tune, as if they had written a manuscript before. Many senior officials listened and heard the meaning.

"Brother Huikong, have you forgotten the chaos caused by the Five Buddha City many years ago?"

"Brother Huikong, what should we do about the gossip brought by technology? In this case, is Buddhism still Buddhism?"

Immediately, a conservative senior official spoke up and said, don't forget, it's not that Mahayana Star has not developed technology. They haven't seen many benefits, but they have seen a lot of disadvantages. Otherwise, they would not have gone to convert the Five Buddha City before. Think about how many dirty things were exposed after converting the Five Buddha City.

"I know what my fellow brothers said, but times have changed. It's time for us in Buddhism to seek change."

Huikong nodded. He certainly knew the harm that the Five Buddha City brought. He was the one who led the transformation of the Five Buddha City. He had disagreed with it before, but this battle woke Huikong up and made him realize that if he still held on to his previous ideas, Buddhism would be doomed.
