The establishment of Mahayana Buddhism has been recognized by the Heavenly Dao. Can it affect the Journey to the West? I helped Sun Wukong only to help him break through in his practice. Did Sun Wukong ever go to the West to obtain the scriptures? "Yang An said indifferently.
All along, when he planned these things, he had made all the necessary preparations.
What he did was only to prevent the Journey to the West from being controlled by Western religions, and did not interfere with the direction of the Journey to the West.
The establishment of Mahayana Buddhism was derived from Western religion. Although it caused Western religion to split into Mahayana Buddhism and Hinayana Buddhism, it still belongs to Western religion in essence.
No matter how you look at it, it had no impact on the Journey to the West, but instead promoted the spread of Buddhism.
As for helping Sun Wukong, it was also to make him realize the truth and have the capital to resist Western religions.
Today, Sun Wukong is still continuing his journey to the West, let alone stopping it.
Even if the Taoists Zhunti and Jie Yin were shameless and reported the matter to Zixiao Palace, he would not be afraid at all.
"You are avoiding the important point. The Journey to the West was personally decided by our master, Daozu Hongjun, and it cannot be changed.
If you insist on interfering in the Journey to the West, Senior Brother Jieyin and I will definitely go to Zixiao Palace to file a complaint!" Taoist Zhunti said loudly.
After hearing Yang An's words, on the surface, he was still threatening Yang An with the name of Daozu Hongjun, but in his heart he no longer had much confidence.
Just as Yang An said, the two things Yang An did did not affect Journey to the West, but instead promoted the development of Journey to the West.
When he mentioned his master at the beginning, he wanted to threaten Yang An more and make Yang An give up.
If this matter was really reported to Zixiao Palace, they would have no reason to ask their master Daozu Hongjun to punish Yang An.
In addition, he was also a little surprised. Yang An had clearly helped Sun Wukong and helped him break through to the quasi-sage realm.
But since he had already surpassed Sun Wukong, why was he still willing to continue traveling west with Tang Sanzang and his companions?
Once the Journey to the West is successful, Western religion will surely flourish.
Logically speaking, given the relationship between Western religion and Yang An, Yang An would not miss such an opportunity and would most likely let Sun Wukong stop the Journey to the West from happening.
Of course, what they need to do most now is to control Sun Wukong.
If Sun Wukong cannot be controlled, the Journey to the West will be completely out of control.
He had already made up his mind that if Yang An insisted on helping Sun Wukong.
Even if it violates the rules set by their master, Taoist Hongjun, he and his senior brother will force their way into the wild world and control the quasi-saint Sun Wukong!
“The Journey to the West was decided by Daozu Hongjun, but when did Daozu let you control Sun Wukong? You, the Western Church, misinterpreted Daozu Hongjun’s meaning and used Daozu Hongjun’s name. Do you really think you can scare me? Zhunti, if you insist on dealing with Sun Wukong, you must think about the consequences!” Yang An refused to give in.
Just as he said, what Daozu Hongjun cares about is whether the Journey to the West can proceed smoothly and whether the Western religion will flourish. In this, whether it is the Mahayana Buddhism or the Hinayana Buddhism in the Western religion that flourishes is not important at all.
As long as Sun Wukong accompanies Tang Sanzang on his journey to the West and overcomes the eighty-one difficulties, the journey to the West will end.
In other words, the fact that Sun Wukong was controlled by Western religions has nothing to do with Journey to the West.
The Western religion wants to control Sun Wukong, simply because it wants to take this opportunity to control the direction of Journey to the West and allow the Western religion to reap more benefits.
Mentioning Daozu Hongjun is nothing more than a fox taking advantage of the power of another and impersonating the name of Daozu Hongjun.
As early as the end of the Conferred God Ceremony, he had already figured out the thoughts of Taoist Ancestor Hongjun.
As long as it does not affect the occurrence of the catastrophe and the overall direction of the catastrophe, this Taoist ancestor who is above the saint will not pay attention to this matter.
If the Taoists Zhunti and Jie Yin really went to file a complaint because of this matter, they would probably not even be able to see the Taoist Patriarch Hongjun.
In addition, he also understood the unscrupulous nature of Western religions.
Since they cannot get any benefits from him, it is very likely that the Taoists Zhunti and Jie Yin will disregard the rules set by the Taoist ancestor Hongjun and directly attack Sun Wukong in the prehistoric world.
After all, these two are saints. If they take action personally, Sun Wukong will probably not be able to escape the fate of being controlled.
When he said this, he was also threatening Western religions so that they would not act rashly.
You know, behind Sun Wukong now is not only himself, but also two saints, Nuwa and Tongtian.
“Yang An, in the future, my Western Church will definitely settle accounts with you!” Zhunti Taoist snorted coldly.
Just as Yang An said, they were indeed using the name of Daozu Hongjun, and Daozu Hongjun never allowed them to control Sun Wukong from beginning to end.
Based on his understanding of Daozu Hongjun, this master would never pay attention to such trivial matters.
As long as the catastrophe is not affected and the ancient world is not destroyed, the Master will never appear.
At this moment, he knew very well that his words could no longer pose a threat to Yang An.
According to his original plan, even if they couldn't suppress Yang An, they could still forcibly attack Sun Wukong.
But now, Yang An said that he was threatening them directly and asked the Western Church to think about the consequences. As saints, they had never been threatened like this.
However, they had to take Yang An's remarks seriously.
Because behind Yang An, there is not only the entire human race, but also the two saints Tongtian and Nuwa.
If they forcibly take action against Sun Wukong, they will not only be retaliated by Yang An, but they may even be retaliated by Tongtian Jiaozhu and Nuwa Niangniang.
Judging from the current situation of Western religion, it is completely unable to withstand any further blows.
At this point, he could neither suppress Yang An nor threaten Yang An, so he could only leave.
As for the plan regarding the Journey to the West, he could only discuss it with Senior Brother Jie Yin and others.
As soon as he finished speaking, the Taoist Zhunti had already put away his Dharmakāśyapa and disappeared into the chaos.
With the disappearance of the Taoist Zhunti, Yang An also opened his mind and separated the Taoist fruit of the Nine Nine Returning to One.
Among them, the eight Dao Fruits belonging to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were also integrated into the bodies of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors at the first opportunity.
"Congratulations, leader. You have once again defeated a powerful enemy and foiled the Western Church's plan!" said the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors in unison.
Although the eight of them also contributed to this attack, the most important person was the leader Yang An.
They expressed their sincere admiration for the human leader.
If there were no human leader, how would they have a chance to contend with the saints, and how would the human race have its current status?
"This is all thanks to you all. From today on, you will have a good show to watch!" Yang An said.
With his threat, Sun Wukong would naturally be safe for a short period of time.
However, he did this only to attract the attention of various forces.
And his real purpose will be a good thing that will affect the entire world.
After hearing Yang An's words, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors did not ask many questions, but their eyes were full of expectation.
At the same time, in the ancient world, Patriarch Bodhi's expression changed slightly.
Then, he stopped immediately, and the saintly powers of the Taoist Zhunti and the Taoist Jie Yin also stopped.
Seeing that Patriarch Bodhi would no longer take action, the power of the saint Tongtian and Nuwa Niangniang no longer entangled them.
Only Yang An's giant hand was in front of Sun Wukong, protecting him behind him.
"Sun Wukong, you are lucky!" Patriarch Bodhi looked gloomy.
According to his original plan, even if he couldn't do anything to Sun Wukong here, the original body of the Taoist Zhunti still had other ways.
Long before, Taoist Zhunti had already thought of a way to directly attack Yang An in the Fire Cloud Cave.
Being in the Fire Cloud Cave, Yang An was unable to mobilize the luck of the human race, so it was an easy task for them to suppress Yang An.
The unexpected changes that happened to Sun Wukong and the establishment of Mahayana Buddhism are all related to Yang An.
As long as Yang An, the main culprit, is suppressed, Sun Wukong will be nothing at all. The same goes for the Mahayana Buddhism headed by Kong Xuan. They can also keep the Journey to the West firmly in their hands.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
But he also didn't expect that while the Taoist Jie Yin and Yuan Shi Tian Zun were holding back the other two saints, the original Taoist Zhunti was trying his best to deal with Yang An, but he couldn't do anything to Yang An, let alone suppress him.
Moreover, even if Daozu Hongjun was eventually brought out, he would not be a threat to Yang An.
At this point, the Taoist Zhunti could no longer do anything to Yang An, and they were also in a stalemate, so naturally they could not continue to attack Sun Wukong.
Even if he used force, he was destined to be unable to control Sun Wukong, and he could only choose to leave.
While thinking, he had already turned his gaze to Maitreya and the other two who were watching the battle on the sidelines.
"Let's go!"
Patriarch Bodhi snorted coldly and disappeared from everyone's sight.
Seeing Bodhi Patriarch leave, Maitreya and the other two were horrified, not knowing what had happened. In this situation, although they were at a disadvantage, if the war continued, the outcome was still unknown.
They all knew how important Sun Wukong was to the Journey to the West. If they could not control Sun Wukong, the Journey to the West would be completely out of control.
But now, Bodhi Patriarch, one of the Three Corpses of Saints, actually stopped and left without any hesitation, which made them puzzled.
However, even though they were full of doubts, they did not have time to think too much.
With their strength, they are no match for Sun Wukong at all, not to mention that the saintly power of Tongtian and Nuwa has not yet dissipated.
If they continue to stay here, they will probably die under the treasure of Sun Wukong's merits.
While thinking, the three of them followed in the footsteps of Patriarch Bodhi and disappeared from everyone's sight.
Seeing this, Sun Wukong’s mind was full of doubts, but he also felt completely relieved.
He understood very well how dangerous the situation was. If it weren't for the help of that giant hand and the two saintly powers, he would have been controlled by Bodhi Patriarch and become a puppet of the Western Religion.
The appearance of two saintly powers also confirmed his guess. There were indeed saints helping him behind the scenes, even two saints.
The current situation is actually not clear, and it is still unknown who will win or lose.
The departure of Bodhi Patriarch also made him have certain guesses in his mind. The departure of Bodhi Patriarch was most likely due to the help of someone behind the scenes.
He couldn't help but wonder who the two saints were, and he wanted to know where the giant hand came from?
But even though I had a lot of questions, no one could answer them.
“Don’t ask about the road ahead, just keep going forward firmly!”
Suddenly, a soft call came from his ear. Sun Wukong looked carefully and found that the call came from the mysterious giant hand.
As the voice sounded, the mysterious giant hand and the two saintly powers disappeared together.
Hearing the voice coming from the giant hand, he became more confused than ever, and was also more concerned about the owner of the giant hand.
However, he had no objection to the instructions from the giant hand.
On the one hand, continuing the journey to the West can gain more fortune, which will help him improve his strength to a certain extent.
On the other hand, if he continued his journey to the West according to the giant hand's instructions, he would have a high probability of knowing the identities of the giant hand's owner and the two saints.
Even if no one answered him, he would most likely know the answer when he saw Kong Xuan again.
Thinking of this, his gaze was already cast towards Tang Sanzang and the other two.
"Sanzang, this matter is settled. Let's continue our journey to the West!" said Sun Wukong.
He naturally knew that today's events were closely related to Tang Sanzang and others.
However, what he wants to do most now is to continue his journey to the west and go to the Western Paradise.
Feeling the gaze from Sun Wukong, Tang Sanzang and the other two subconsciously shuddered and nodded with stiff expressions.
"We have no objection. We will listen to Wukong!" Tang Sanzang and others said hurriedly.
If they had followed their original plan, they wouldn't have to worry about Sun Wukong reaching the quasi-saint realm.
After Patriarch Bodhi took action, Sun Wukong would inevitably be controlled, but the current outcome was beyond their expectations.
Even Patriarch Bodhi couldn't do anything to Sun Wukong, and it was natural that it was the same given their strength.
Sun Wukong actually said that he wanted to continue his journey to the west. How dare they say no? Later, under the leadership of Sun Wukong, the group of people on the journey to the west had already crossed this area and continued to move towards the west.
At the same time, news came from the border of the western land.
"Your Majesty, Xiyou and his party have already headed towards Wanshou Mountain."
Upon hearing the spy's words, the generals immediately turned their attention to Emperor Li Shimin, their eyes full of expectation.
They had known about the Human Emperor's plan long before. Once the Journey to the West passed through certain small countries and regions in the western land, the Tang army could take action immediately.
Now, the Journey to the West group has crossed an area, and it is time for them to move forward.
After hearing the questions from many generals, Li Shimin's expression became solemn and his eyes became serious.
"The time has come. Today, I will personally lead the army and march into the Western Land with all of you! We must save the human race in the Western Land and completely unify the prehistoric land, so that the human dynasty will no longer be limited to the land of Kyushu!
All soldiers, listen to my order, the whole army will attack!" Li Shimin said loudly.
As he spoke, he had already swung the Human Emperor's sword in his hand, and the tip of the sword pointed in the direction of the western land! Under his command, the generals were excited and immediately executed the Human Emperor's order.
With the orders of many generals, millions of Tang troops set out immediately. Under the leadership of Li Shimin, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the human race of the Nine Provinces stepped into the Western land for the first time! (End of this chapter)
