Chapter 216: Truce or not?
When the immortals in heaven heard what the Emperor said, their faces changed drastically. The thing they were worried about finally happened.
The Buddhist world openly assassinated Li Jing, which was also a warning to the immortal world. If the immortal world continues to go to war with the Buddhist world, then what follows will not be an ordinary battle between heavenly soldiers and generals, but a battle at the Buddha level.
Once the battle continues, the immortals will be faced with continuous assassinations!
But now, many emperors have been assassinated one by one. If it had happened before, and they knew it was done by Corpse Abandoned Buddha, the fairy world would have taken corresponding measures. The emperors only needed to stay together in pairs, and Corpse Abandoned Buddha would not be able to do anything.
The key point is that now, the high-end combat power of the emperor level in the fairy world is seriously insufficient. Once a war breaks out with the Buddhist world, the fairy world is likely to be defeated.
The Emperor of Heaven had a gloomy expression. Was it possible that after all the effort to start the war, and even with West Lake Academy providing so many supplies and materials, they still couldn't win, and were they going to give up such a good situation?
But if the war doesn't stop, can they really bear the consequences?
Guanyin was sitting in the tent and saw the result of Li Jing. She naturally understood what Tathagata Buddha meant. If nothing unexpected happened, they would send people to negotiate peace with the fairy world tomorrow, and then everything would be settled smoothly.
If Guanyin and the others went directly to ask for peace at the beginning, the immortal world, which was in the advantageous position in the war, would definitely not be willing and might even fight back directly.
But now it’s different. The commander of this battle has been assassinated, in front of many fairy generals. This move is really brilliant!
Not only did it scare the heavenly soldiers and generals, but it also gave a direct warning and threat to the Emperor of Heaven. If they continued the war, they would have to be prepared for a high-end war.
The Buddhist world is naturally aware of the situation in the fairy world. Even though the Golden Light Buddha Land has suffered a huge impact, the losses are all low- and medium-end combat forces. The high-end combat forces are not affected too much. It is just that there are fewer than a few dozen Bodhisattvas.
In the Buddhist world, only those above the Four Great Bodhisattvas are considered high-end combat forces, and combat power at this level of the Ancient Buddha can affect the overall situation.
The high-end combat power of the fairy world is much less than that of the Buddhist world. Although the confrontation is only against one of the Golden Light Buddha lands, the actual difference in high-end combat power is not that big.
You should know that the Buddhist world and the immortal world are fundamentally different. Buddhist practice is about equality of all living beings and putting kindness first. Buddhist temples are particularly popular in all parts of the world. Especially in a world where monsters are rampant, Buddhist practice is sought after by many people.
With the people's faith, the speed of Buddhist cultivation will be faster. The more Buddhist cultivators there are, the faster they will upgrade, and the more skilled high-end combat forces will appear.
But it is precisely for this reason that the Golden Light Buddha Land wants to assassinate the emperors of the fairy world step by step, so that when the real war breaks out, the Golden Light Buddha Land can gain the upper hand.
Just when the Emperor of Heaven was worrying about whether to stop the war, a key figure came to the Heavenly Palace.
"Old Emperor Tian, have you encountered any troubles?"
A slightly joking voice came from the door of the hall, attracting the attention of all the gods.
Who would be so rude to address the Emperor of Heaven?
However, this voice and tone are a little familiar!
The gods stared at the entrance of the hall with sharp eyes, and saw a monkey wearing full body armor carrying a golden stick at both ends and walked into the hall.
However, when all the gods saw the monkey, their eyes widened.
Originally, they thought the monkey was rude and impolite. Even after putting on new clothes, it still scratched its ears and cheeks when walking, and did not look like a human.
But now, looking at the monkey again, the energy emanating from its body actually gave me the feeling of looking at a master.
Yes, this monkey is Sun Wukong.
Although Sun Wukong was carrying the golden cudgel, he didn't look rough at all because of the aura he exuded. Instead, he looked strong and confident. He walked forward and stood in the center of the hall, looking at the Emperor of Heaven. He didn't look like he was before.
The gods looked at Sun Wukong in shock. Taibai Jinxing came forward and circled Sun Wukong twice. "Are you really the monkey head of Sun Wukong? You have been suppressed for 500 years, and you have changed so much?"
Sun Wukong raised his eyebrows and sneered, "If I can change myself after being suppressed for 500 years, then I must be the reincarnation of a god! This is all thanks to the dean! That old guy Tathagata suppressed me for 500 years. He wanted to weaken my arrogance and take me in? You wish!"
Ao Di had made movies and TV series about the various situations in which Sun Wukong went to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures and showed them to him. After watching them, Sun Wukong kept complaining that they were unreasonable.
However, after an elder of the Dragon Clan conducted a possible future analysis of time travel, he found that the possibility was more than 90%!
Sun Wukong thought that it was really embarrassing for him that he had to ask for help everywhere to protect Tang Monk even though he had the strength to fight against Guanyin. The key was that those monsters were all arranged by Tathagata Buddha.
This made him extremely angry!
So during these ten years or so, Sun Wukong practiced very hard, studying the various courses and materials prepared by the dean to hone himself.
500 years had passed, and he had just come out of the Five Finger Mountain, so his muscles and bones had not yet expanded, and he could not be said to have used his true strength when fighting with Guanyin. Later, he broke through to the Daluo Jinxian and reached the level of the 17th-level Zhenjun.
Therefore, if Sun Wukong were to face Guanyin now, unless Guanyin used a more powerful magic weapon, Sun Wukong would definitely win.
However, Sun Wukong's impression of the Buddhist world was greatly reduced because of this, especially the incident that the Buddhist world caused in Hangzhou, which made him sneer at the Buddhist world.
"Old Tiandi, don't associate my change with that old guy. It's all the dean's credit. Besides, I came here today. Don't you want to know why?"
Although Sun Wukong's temperament has changed greatly and his walking posture is also different, the tone of his voice is not so easy to change.
However, when the Emperor of Heaven heard what Sun Wukong said, he did not show any displeasure at all. Instead, his expression became slightly excited, and his originally tangled expression remained unchanged for an hour.
He laughed out loud, "Teacher Sun, you are too modest. It is said that you are the pillar of the college and the idol of many students!"
The flattery of the Emperor of Heaven and the address to Sun Wukong startled all the gods present, but then they thought of West Lake Academy and smiled.
"Yeah yeah!"
"Teacher Sun, long time no see!"
"I've seen Teacher Sun particularly like Xiantao Brew. I'll bring you two bottles next time!"
Some gods even started giving gifts to establish relationships.
The Emperor of Heaven glanced at the gods with a smile, and they all shut their mouths immediately.
The Emperor of Heaven continued to ask, "I wonder what brought Teacher Sun here this time?"
