"Give birth to a late Quasi-Saint, and reject the Buddha's request? Is your request that simple?"
The Dragon King of the East Sea still found it a little unbelievable. The conditions proposed by Sun Wukong were too simple.
"Simple? This matter is not simple. Any change in the great situation of heaven and earth may lead to immeasurable consequences. The end of your dragon race is to join the Buddhist sect. However, once you enter the Buddhist sect, your dragon race may disappear completely. The Buddhist sect does not care about women and does not reproduce. In the end, your dragon race will completely disappear.
If you choose not to join the Buddhist sect, you are going against the Way of Heaven. At that time, the dragon race may suffer punishment from the Way of Heaven. This is a matter of life and death. Do you still think it is easy?"
Sun Wukong began to tell the Dragon King of the East Sea about the problems he would face in the future. Although he could use deception to fool the Dragon King of the East Sea, once he was exposed by Buddhism, it might cause a rift between him and the dragon clan, so telling the truth was the most appropriate.
The Dragon King of the East Sea also fell into deep thought at this time.
"Besides, once you decide not to join Buddhism, you will have more important things to do."
Sun Dasheng continued to speak.
"Is there something more important? What is it?"
The Dragon King of the East Sea was shocked. Sure enough, things were not that simple!
Sun Dasheng saw that the Dragon King of the East China Sea had focused his attention on Ao Guang's Qiankun bag. His expression became very solemn. He said, "If the Ruyi Jingu Bang is damaged, then floods will occur frequently throughout the world. The dragon clan must take on the responsibility of pacifying the floods! Even without the Ruyi Jingu Bang, the world will not be affected by floods. In such a matter, Dragon King of the East China Sea, you should be aware of the pressure you will face."
When the Dragon King of the East Sea heard this, his face was full of bitterness.
"To quell the flood is against the will of heaven, and the dragon clan will still suffer countless casualties."
No matter what choice is made, the dragon clan will suffer countless casualties!
The Dragon King of the East Sea understood the meaning behind what Sun Wukong said. Pressure? This is an enormous pressure!
"I finally understood what the Immortal said. No matter what happens, our dragon clan will suffer countless casualties! To quell the floods in the world is a great merit. In that way, the luck of our dragon clan will soar. However, this will also directly sin against the Buddhist sect, because this part of the merit is originally intended to be transferred to the Buddhist sect. Therefore, the Buddhist sect will continue to put pressure on the dragon clan and even ask the Heavenly Court to send down a decree of punishment.
Because if we want to control the flood, we may inevitably go against the will of Heaven to rain. In that case, countless dragons will die in the process. What we dragons want to gamble on is whether the merits of flood control can make up for the number of dragons who died.
If the dragon race prospers in the end, then those dragons who died will have died for a good cause. But if the dragon race still fails to prosper in the end, then all the dragons died in vain."
The Dragon King of the East Sea figured everything out immediately.
Seeing that the Dragon King of the East Sea had figured these things out, Sun Wukong nodded with satisfaction.
"It would be best if you could figure out so many things on your own, but your "but" is actually a bit redundant. The Dragon Clan is unable to see through the Buddhist calculations now because the gap in strength is too great. Once the Dragon Clan has several late-stage Quasi-Saints, it will be much more difficult for the Buddhist Clan to continue calculating against you.
More importantly, by then you will have the power to overturn the table. If you are really provoked, a late-stage Quasi-Sage can also cause considerable trouble to the Buddhist sect."
Sun Wukong comforted them again at this time. He couldn't just scare them, otherwise they would be scared away, so he had to give them some confidence from time to time.
Upon hearing this, a golden light flashed in the eyes of the Dragon King of the East Sea.
Sun Wukong decided to strike while the iron was hot.
"In order to prosper, Buddhism will not only offend the Dragon Clan, do you understand?"
"Not offending the Dragon Clan? I understand!"
When the Dragon King of the East Sea heard this, he understood everything completely. It was the Warring States Period now, and the country was divided among the people. Taoism was flourishing, and Buddhism was not prominent. However, once Buddhism flourished, Taoism would be weakened. Therefore, Taoism was actually trying to stop Buddhism from behind.
More importantly, the battle between the Asuras and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva in the underworld has never stopped, so they are natural allies.
He even looked around the Flower-Fruit Mountain, where a group of monsters gathered. It was obvious that they were all subordinates of Sun Wukong. The immortal was from the monkey clan, but was also related to the monster clan, which meant that the monster clan was also fighting against Buddhism.
Even if we cannot stop the trend of Heaven, we can definitely gain some benefits when Buddhism flourishes!
The way of heaven will not kill everyone!
"I understand. I swear on behalf of the dragon clan that the dragon clan will not join the Buddhist sect!"
The Dragon King of the East Sea said in a decisive tone.
boom!
There were lightning and thunder in the Flower-Fruit Mountain, and the Heavenly Dao instantly responded to the oath of the Dragon King of the East China Sea!
Since the Dragon King of the East China Sea has been prepared, he can naturally avoid being plotted against. The Dragon Clan is different from the Asura Clan. The Buddhist sect dares to forcibly convert the Asura Clan because the Asura Clan has too strong a murderous aura.
However, Buddhism did not dare to deal with the dragon clan in this way, because the dragon clan was once the protagonist between heaven and earth. If Buddhism forced the dragon clan to submit, it would be a collision between the fortune of Buddhism and the fortune of the dragon clan, which was inconsistent with their Buddhist plan. What Buddhism needed was devouring, not collision and consumption.
Sun Dasheng handed the Ancestral Dragon's blood essence to the Dragon King of the East China Sea and said, "This place can block the secrets of heaven. I suggest you absorb the Ancestral Dragon's blood essence here. In addition, it would be best to summon the other three sea dragon kings to break through together."
Before he came to do this, Huang Tian Dao Zun told him that the secrets of Huaguo Mountain had been blocked by him, and no saint could deduce the situation there. Therefore, it was safe for him to take out the blood of the Ancestral Dragon and give it to the Dragon King of the East China Sea and others.
The Dragon King of the East Sea took the Ancestral Dragon's blood with trembling hands and put it away.
