Change the person in charge of Buddhism?
Sun Wukong's eyes lit up when he heard this, while Guanyin Bodhisattva's scalp went numb.
Neither of them had expected that Shachen had such great ambitions. He wanted not only to eliminate the cause and effect of the Journey to the West catastrophe, but also to subvert the entire Buddhist sect.
Guanyin Bodhisattva said, "Shachen, have you ever considered the consequences of your idea? Do you have the ability or the qualifications to overthrow my Buddhist sect, Lingshan?"
Sun Wukong was also a little embarrassed, "Lao Sha, although I also support your idea, it is really a bit unrealistic."
"Old Tathagata is incredibly powerful, and now he has entered the realm of sainthood. It won't be easy to snatch Buddhism from him."
Guanyin Bodhisattva said, "It's not that it's not that easy, it's simply impossible. My Buddhist sect already has three saints, and only the undivided Daoist sect can compete with us."
"Now the Three Pure Ones of Taoism have split up, each acting independently and arrogantly. Even a single one of them is no match for our Buddhist sect."
She snorted coldly, "Even the saints are helpless, even the Three Pure Ones can only sigh helplessly, how dare you think of subverting my Buddhist Lingshan!"
Although what Guanyin Bodhisattva said is a bit disrespectful and makes people feel uncomfortable, the truth is there!
With the current saint status of Lingshan in Buddhism, there is really no force in the world that can compete with him alone.
Even saints can't do it, let alone Shachen. If he wants to overthrow Lingshan single-handedly, it is almost wishful thinking.
Shachen laughed heartily: "I really can't do it now, but when I can, it will definitely shock you all."
"The words of a saint are nothing special. With my current strength, among the Six Saints of the Universe, no, now it should be the Seven Saints of the Universe, who can dare to say that they can definitely defeat me?"
Shachen's words were indeed a bit arrogant, but Guanyin Bodhisattva wanted to refute but couldn't find the words.
Because Shachen's strength is so powerful, several saints have come to the Liusha River and fought with him, but in the end they all ended up with regret.
The Buddha Tathagata once said that Shachen's strength is no less than that of the Saint Nuwa, but that was Shachen that the Buddha looked down upon.
When Guanyin Bodhisattva faced Shachen directly, she had the illusion that she was facing the Saint Zhunti, which means that Shachen's strength is likely not just at the level of Nuwa.
It is very likely that Sha Chen's strength has reached the level of the Bodhisattva Cundi. However, even Guanyin Bodhisattva guessed wrong. Sha Chen's current strength is much stronger than the original Bodhisattva Cundi.
If the Bodhisattva Cundi had not absorbed and refined Patriarch Bodhi, he would probably not be his match.
Because now Shachen, his physical body, and his magical powers have all improved, and his spatial power has reached perfection.
The overall combat power has been greatly improved. I dare not say that I can trample the Saint Zhunti under my feet, but I can still be a head higher than the Saint Zhunti.
Seeing that the two were silent, Sha Chen continued, "With my current strength, I'm naturally not able to look down on the Saints, but it won't be that easy for them to deal with me."
"Now I want to change the owner of Lingshan, which is naturally not easy, but it would be too arbitrary to say that there is no hope."
Guanyin Bodhisattva remained silent, while Sun Wukong was extremely excited. "Lao Sha, if Buddhism really changes its master, what do you think of me?"
He looked like he wanted to be the boss of Buddhism, he was dancing with excitement and his eyes were shining.
Shachen simply shook his head: "Not very good."
Sun Wukong was anxious: "Since you want to change the master of Buddhism, who else in the world has the qualifications besides me?"
Sha Chen said, "You can't really be considered a Buddhist. And if I really let you be the boss in the Buddhist sect, with all the strict rules and regulations, can you accept it?"
Sun Wukong said, "When I become the boss, I will be able to change all these rules and regulations. Everyone can eat meat and drink wine to their heart's content."
When Guanyin Bodhisattva heard these words, her face suddenly changed and her eyes were filled with fear.
Shachen was speechless. "Every religion has its own meaning, and Buddhism is no exception. The Buddhist precepts and rules have their reasons and logic. I don't intend to change them."
He smiled and said, "I'm not a Buddhist anyway, so these rules and regulations won't affect me. Instead, they can help those who are determined to practice Buddhism to eat less meat and drink less alcohol. Having some rules and regulations to restrain them will prevent them from causing trouble."
Guanyin Bodhisattva felt relieved when she heard Shachen's words.
Sun Wukong said, "If that's the case, who else but me?"
Sha Chen said, "I just think Jin Chanzi is more suitable than you. He practices Buddhism himself, and I don't stop him from learning Buddhism. I just don't want him to be bound by the Buddha's Dharma."
Sun Wukong immediately objected, "That bald guy can't even beat me, Sun Wukong. How can he be the leader of Buddhism?"
Guanyin Bodhisattva just fell silent. According to what Shachen said, Tang Seng might have already rebelled.
If you think about it carefully, the things that Tang Seng and Sun Wukong have done along the way seem to be really different from before. Isn't that rebellion?
It’s just that the Buddhists trusted Zhunti Saint too much, thinking that if Zhunti Saint personally erased Tang Sanzang’s memory and sent him to reincarnate, everything would be safe.
But no one expected that Tang Seng would still rebel, and no one knew when he became a member of Shachen.
Sha Chen said, "Jin Chanzi's strength is not as good as yours, but his understanding of Buddhism is countless times stronger than yours. I need the entire Buddhist sect to be completely renewed and have a new master, not to turn the entire Buddhist sect into another sect."
"If that's the case, I might as well just create a new sect. The Buddhist rules and regulations won't affect me anyway, so who becomes the leader will have little impact on me."
"If that's the case, why can't I let my disciple become the leader of the Buddhist sect? And I will be the boss among the bosses of the Buddhist sect."
hiss!
Guanyin Bodhisattva gasped in shock, "When did Jin Chanzi become your disciple?"
Sha Chen said, "He has been my disciple for a long time, you just don't know it."
Guanyin Bodhisattva finally understood why Tang Seng had changed so much. It turned out that he had become Sha Chen's disciple.
If Tang Seng really became the master of Buddhism and Sha Chen remotely controlled it from behind, it is hard to imagine what the entire Buddhist sect would become.
Guanyin Bodhisattva stood up and said, "If you want to overthrow Buddhism and change its appearance, then kill me."
"If you don't kill me, I will definitely stop you when I leave here. Otherwise, these words will be spread out, and the entire Buddhist community will not forgive you."
