Even the ancient Buddha Dipankara said that he was beaten.
Needless to say, the others were all shouting for war and killing.
"The reputation of our Buddhist sect cannot be damaged. The Arhat Hall has suffered heavy losses, and we must seek revenge."
"Shachen was merely a pawn of my Buddhist sect, yet he turned the tables and became the master. This is truly a heinous crime."
"We really have to take down the sandstorm. Otherwise, we won't be able to face anyone."
Most Buddhist disciples support the statement of the ancient Buddha Dipankara and believe that force should be used to deal with the sand and dust.
Tathagata remained silent throughout the whole process.
Then he looked at Maitreya Buddha, whose eyes were rolling around, and said, "Old Maitreya Buddha, what do you think about this matter?"
Maitreya Buddha was just deprived of his power, but he didn't expect that Tathagata would ask him again.
He said, "Fighting is impossible, because if I could fight, I would have done it long ago. Shachen's cave is indestructible. Zhen Yuanzi can't get in, and neither can I. May I ask, Ancient Buddha, can you get in?"
The Buddhas looked at each other in confusion.
Most of their knowledge about sandstorms is hearsay, and since they cannot get involved, they don't pay much attention to it.
Everyone knew that Shachen's cave was indestructible, but no one expected it to be so indestructible.
It turned out to be true that Zhen Yuanzi couldn't get in.
and.
Maitreya Buddha couldn’t get in either, so it seemed like they really had no other options.
The ancient Buddha Ran Deng said, "This old monk also tried to get in before, but at that time, his face was not so strong, and was even almost smashed open by Yang Jian's Fan Tian Yin. But now it is even stronger, I think it has been strengthened."
"Zhen Yuanzi can't get in because he only has supernatural powers but no magic weapon to break through the door. Although this old monk doesn't have such a magic weapon, I can borrow it."
"For example, the Fantian Seal in Yang Jian's hands could almost break the Flowing Sand River. If it were in the hands of this old monk, it would definitely be able to do the same."
Maitreya Buddha laughed heartily and said, "Do you think Guangchengzi will lend you the Fantian Seal? Do you want to borrow the magic weapon in your former position as the deputy leader of the Chan Sect?"
His words were full of ridicule, and the Buddhas also laughed.
But there are also some people who are filled with anger and accuse Maitreya Buddha of inappropriate words and deeds.
A trace of anger flashed in the eyes of the ancient Buddha Ran Deng. This matter was his biggest pain and also his scandal.
No one has ever dared to mention it, but Maitreya Buddha mentioned it in public, which was a slap in the face to him and made him lose face.
When he was deified, he was still the deputy leader of the Chan Sect, second only to the emperor and above everyone else, and held a highly respected position.
Joining Buddhism is actually for the throne of Buddha.
But who knew that Tathagata also joined in, took away his throne, and made him the second in command.
Still the second one.
He was originally the second in command in the Chan sect, and the one above him was a saint.
Now he is the second in command in Lingshan, and above him is Tathagata, which directly lowers his status.
This made the ancient Buddha Ran Deng very angry and it was also something that made him feel sad all the time.
But things have already happened and he can't change it. Fortunately, he controls a lot of Buddhist power and can also share a lot of Buddhist fortune.
It is somewhat different from the Xianjiao. Most of the fortune of the Xianjiao falls into the hands of Yuanshi Tianzun, and he does not have many subordinates.
This is also the reason why Ran Deng did not leave Buddhism for a long time.
He snorted and said, "This old monk is just giving an example. If you want to break the Quicksand River, you need more than one or two magical weapons. It should be several."
Maitreya Buddha made a few more sarcastic remarks, which made Dipankara Buddha very angry. The two sides started to criticize each other.
Then.
The followers of both sides, the Buddhas, argued with each other, accused each other, and cursed each other.
Maitreya Buddha said that what Dipankara Buddha said was taken for granted was completely useless, and any further action would only bring shame to Buddhism.
The ancient Buddha Dipankara said that Maitreya Buddha had brought discredit to Buddhism, and he was now cleaning up for him. It would have been fine if he was not grateful, but he was also holding Buddhism back, which was really too much.
The two sides quarreled constantly.
Tathagata's expression was calm, and he even smiled more than at the beginning.
This was done intentionally by him. Buddhism cannot be a monolithic entity unless it is under his leadership and takes orders from him.
Otherwise, his subordinates would fight each other and even unite with each other, completely undermining his power.
He has also heard a lot of rumors recently that the people of Maitreya Buddha and Dipankara Buddha have joined forces and the two sides are showing signs of forming an alliance.
Maitreya Buddha also tricked the blue lion and the white elephant down the mountain, and Manjushri and Samantabhadra also became closer to Maitreya Buddha.
Originally, Manjushri and Samantabhadra followed the ancient Buddha Dipamkara, and now they are getting close to this side, which naturally makes Tathagata feel inappropriate.
These two biggest opposition factions must be opposed to each other and must never be allowed to form an alliance.
So Tathagata separated the two of them with just two simple sentences.
Of course.
Are Dipankara and Maitreya really at loggerheads? Actually, they knew that their actions this time might be seen by Tathagata.
In order to reassure Tathagata, they became so angry and attacked each other.
Otherwise, given their identities, how could they slander and accuse each other in public?
"That's enough."
Tathagata scolded him, saying, "You are all great Buddhists. How can you quarrel like this?"
"I intend to personally resolve the dust issue. I also instructed Kasyapa and Ananda to do so, but they didn't do their job properly and will be punished."
Kasyapa and Ananda immediately stepped out and bowed to accept the criticism and punishment.
Tathagata continued, "I will record the punishment for both of you. If you do it again, the punishment will be increased."
The two thanked him.
Maitreya and Dipankara both curled their lips secretly. Tathagata picked it up high and put it down gently.
