The huge pit that Fang Jian left in the Tang Dynasty of Jambudvīpa is the Samantabhadra Bodhisattva in Mount Emei, Shu County of the Tang Dynasty.
Fang Jian owed a favor to Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, so when the Tang Dynasty destroyed Buddhism, it left behind the Taoist scriptures of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva in Shu County.
Later, Taoism also acquiesced to this, so the Buddhist and Taoist teachings in Shu County have never been affected.
But now, after the merger of Heaven and Taoism, seeing that Heaven is about to send troops, Buddhism and Xuanjiao must take over the Tang Dynasty as soon as possible, so this hidden danger broke out.
Samantabhadra Bodhisattva had been operating in Shu County for so long that his power had accumulated enough, so he directly destroyed the Taoist layout in the direction of Shu County from within the Tang Dynasty. Then the Buddhist and Xuanjiao took advantage of the situation and attacked from the Shu County defense line, directly tearing apart the Taoist defense line in the southwest.
The situation of Taoism then took a sharp turn for the worse. The collapse of the southwest defense line destroyed half of Taoism's overall layout in the Tang Dynasty. After the Taoist gods fought desperately for five days, they were finally completely defeated.
The Taoist sect suffered heavy losses this time. Half of the Taiyi Golden Immortals were seriously injured, more than 400 Golden Immortal cultivators were killed or injured, and countless disciples below the Golden Immortal level were killed and their vitality was greatly damaged.
Finally, the Taoist sect saw that it was hopeless and powerless to reverse the situation, so it had to withdraw from the Southern Continent.
At this point, the battle between Taoism and Buddhism for Jambudvīpa was finally won by Buddhism and Xuanjiao, and all Taoist forces were expelled from Jambudvīpa.
After Buddhism and Xuanjiao occupied the entire Southern Continent, they stopped and did not advance towards the Eastern Divine Land. Instead, they stopped and began to plan and consolidate the Southern Continent.
Afterwards, another major event occurred in the Tang Dynasty, that is, the Tang Emperor Li Hong was killed.
It is said that on the day Li Hong was killed, the people in Chang'an saw the sky covered with dark clouds and evil spirits, blocking out the sun.
Not long after, news of Emperor Li Hong's death spread in the palace.
Shortly after Li Hong's death, the Taixuan Division's "Yanzuoyuan" immediately reported to the Eastern Emperor Qinghua. The head of Yanzuoyuan, Cui Ji, reported that Li Hong's death was not a natural death, but was caused by a demon or ghost.
What does this mean? This means that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was killed by evil spirits.
But the emperors of the world all have destiny and fate in their bodies. Not to mention monsters and ghosts, even Taoists, Buddhas and immortals cannot be killed easily if one wants to.
There was only one possibility. "Someone removed Li Hong's destiny and luck." The Eastern Qinghua Emperor's face turned pale. "But the only one who could do this, besides the Taiyi Golden Immortal who has attained the Dao of 'fate' and 'luck', is the Daluo Golden Immortal."
Fang Jian and others standing below all looked solemn when they heard this. It was obvious that this was not done by Buddhism or Xuanjiao.
As the emperor, Li Hong planned his entire life to "destroy Buddhism". If he had not died, how could the Tang Dynasty be stabilized by Buddhism?
Not to mention Xuanjiao, Xuanjiao has never been recognized by the Heavenly Court since it came to the world. It does not have the luck and orthodoxy to control the Tang Dynasty.
"The Taoist sect suffered such a great defeat and heavy losses because the Buddhist sect still exists in Mount Emei in Shu County." Taixuan Shiling Li Ye Zhenren said meaningfully.
Master Guangting, the chief official of Taixuan City, was even more blunt: "Then who is responsible for the survival of the Buddhist sect in Mount Emei, Shu County?" ... "It's me," Fang Jian said directly. "If you have anything to say, just say it directly. There's no need to beat around the bush and make indirect accusations."
Li Ye and Guang Ting quickly bowed and said, "How dare we?" But the expressions on their faces clearly said, "This is all your fault. Just know that."
Fang Jian did not refute it. This was indeed a huge pit he had unintentionally dug for the Taoist sect, and it could not be cleared up by refuting or explaining.
And now, who knows how many Taoist monks want to find him to "exchange" martial arts, but how could Fang Jian have imagined that just returning a favor would cause such a huge butterfly effect.
"Alright," the Eastern Qinghua Emperor said, "Now is not the time to discuss right and wrong. The Southern Continent has fallen into the hands of the Buddhist and Xuanjiao sects. The time for Heaven to send troops is imminent."
At this point, the Eastern Qinghua Emperor asked Fang Jian, "Have you completed the Heavenly Soldier Reinvigoration Realm?"
Fang Jian reported, "It will take another three days to complete everything."
The Eastern Azure Emperor said, "We can't wait any longer. Immediately go to the Eastern and Western Colonel Commanderies and mobilize 500,000 celestial soldiers from each. Then march to the Southern Continent and hand them over to True Lord Erlang."
"Follow the law." Fang Jian bowed and said.
After receiving the order, Fang Jian immediately went to the Eastern Heaven Department and the Western Heaven Department.
"Lieutenant Sun Linghai of the Dongtian Department is here to meet the Chief Director." When Fang Jian arrived at the Dongtian Department, Lieutenant Sun Linghai came out to greet him directly.
Fang Jian looked at Sun Linghai and said, "Don't be so polite. This is an urgent matter. I'm here to mobilize troops by order of the Grand Master."
Sun Linghai was shocked when he heard this, and immediately ordered the ten chief guards of the Dongtian tribe to come to the hall to receive his orders.
Each captain of the heavenly soldiers has ten chief military officers, each of whom commands 100,000 heavenly soldiers.
When all ten chief guards arrived at the main hall, Fang Jian called out without waiting for Sun Linghai to speak, "Chen Jiantang, Li Yunxin, Zou Zhaozhe, Han Chuyun, and Sun Zhengheng."
The five duyuhou who were called stepped forward immediately, bowed and said, "Your subordinates are here."
Fang Jian said, "I order you to lead your celestial soldiers to assemble outside the South Heavenly Gate within one stick of incense. No one should be late. Anyone who disobeys this order will be executed."
The five people's expressions became solemn, and they bowed and said, "We will obey the order."
Afterwards, Fang Jian did not hesitate and immediately rushed to the Western Heaven Department to announce the decree, and then rushed to the Grain and Food Bureau.
The Grain and Material Court was equivalent to the 'Logistics Department' of Heaven. When Fang Jian arrived at the Grain and Material Court, he was immediately warmly welcomed by Master Hua, the head of the court.
