"Xitianfu Hongqing Zhenren issued the 'Letter to Buddhist Disciples in Xiniu Hezhou'."
"Today, the world is not yet peaceful, and the land is in turmoil. The Western Heavenly Prefecture governs Xiniu Hezhou by the will of Heaven. All actions are in accordance with the laws of Heaven, and all deeds are in accordance with the will of Heaven and the people. Since Fang Jian took office as the Minister of the Western Heavenly Prefecture, he has been diligent and conscientious, practicing the laws of Heaven, cleansing the evil spirits, and eradicating evil spirits..."
"...When the general was captured and killed and the demons of Shaluo Kingdom were exterminated, millions of demon cultivators from Xiniu Hezhou gathered at Banjie Mountain, refusing to submit to the power of heaven. They surrounded the temple and attempted to resist the law of heaven..."
"...Fang Jian often heard that Buddhist disciples' great aspirations are to save all living beings, eliminate evil and promote good, and practice compassion. Now, millions of evil spirits have gathered in Amo Country and Banjie Mountain, causing panic among all living beings and unrest in heaven and earth..."
"...Buddhist monks have the great mission of saving all living beings and alleviating disasters. Therefore, they should step forward in this time of danger, slay the evil spirits, and cleanse the world!"
"The Western Heavenly Palace issues a letter to the Buddhist disciples of Xiniu Hezhou: From the date of this letter, no matter which temple you are in Xiniu Hezhou, no matter your level of cultivation, all Buddhist disciples must immediately enter the world and eliminate the evildoers who are causing chaos and gathering. If anyone receives this letter and remains indifferent, they are violating the Dharma and rebelling against the great vows, and are unworthy of being a Buddhist disciple. The Western Heavenly Palace will also demolish altars and temples to appease the anxious concerns of the sentient beings of Xiniu Hezhou."
Except for the fact that all the temples in Amo Kingdom were surrounded by demon cultivators and unable to contact the Western Paradise, the immortal officials of other countries received the "Letter to the Buddhist Disciples of Xiniu Hezhou" passed down from the Western Paradise and delivered this book to all the Buddhist temples in Xiniu Hezhou.
How could Fang Jian not know that the gathering of these demon cultivators on Banjie Mountain was driven by Buddhism? Of course he knew.
Otherwise, even if King Yu Monkey and his men had the ability to become Taiyi Golden Immortals, no matter how powerful their bodies were, they would not dare to go against the Heavenly Court so openly.
They only dared to do so because Buddhism was behind them and promised them some conditions.
So if the demon cultivators of you Banjie Mountain can issue a manifesto, why can't I do the same? And I will ignore you and send it directly to the Buddhist sect.
Fang Jian: This is an open conspiracy. I am ordering the Buddhist disciples in Xiniu Hezhou in the name of Xitian Mansion. You must come out and wipe out these evildoers. Otherwise, you will be betraying Buddhism, betraying your great vows and Buddhist teachings, and I will ban you!
So after Fang Jian sent out this book, not only were the Buddhist disciples of Xiniu Hezhou shocked, but even some immortal officials in the Heavenly Court and Taoist monks exclaimed that they had not expected it.
But they soon realized that although this was an open conspiracy, it was not unbreakable for Buddhism.
"The Buddhist sect only needs to fool people casually." The giant spirit god sat cross-legged in the main hall and said while looking at the "Letter to the Buddhist Disciples of Xiniu Hezhou" in his hand.
Nezha at the top glanced at the giant spirit, then shook his head and sighed.
When the Giant Spirit heard Nezha sigh, he immediately asked, "Why are you sighing, Third Prince?"
Nezha said, "Even you can see the flaws in this conspiracy. Fang Jian is really going backwards as he grows older."
After saying this, Nezha clenched his right fist and slammed it on the table. With a murderous look on his face, he said, "If it were me, I wouldn't bother with all this nonsense and would just send all those demon cultivators to hell."
The giant spirit chuckled upon hearing this and said, "I can do it too!"
Nezha did not look down on the Giant Spirit this time. After the great catastrophe of the end of the Dharma, a god like the Giant Spirit, who has strong physical and martial arts skills, is now qualified to say such words.
"Ah!" Nezha said with a distressed look on his face, "Although the Dharma Ending Tribulation is good, I still can't fight as I please! Isn't the Three Realms a little too peaceful?"
The Giant Spirit God smiled and said, "Don't worry, Third Prince. I heard that among the demon immortals gathered in Banjie Mountain, there are five demon immortals who were sworn brothers with Sun Wukong in the past. I'm afraid that Master Hongqing will be difficult to deal with this time. I think that the time will come for you, Third Prince, to take action."
When Nezha heard this, his depressed expression immediately improved.
"That makes sense." Nezha said to the giant spirit with a smile on his face.
...
As the Giant Spirit God said, after Fang Jian sent out the letter of proclamation, the Buddhist temples in Xiniu Hezhou all responded positively.
Tens of thousands of Buddhist monks flocked to Amo Country to exorcise demons, and the demon cultivators of Banjie Mountain were also attracted by these Buddhist monks.
But just three days later, memorials like snowflakes were delivered to Fang Jian from the immortal officials' palaces in various places in Xiniu Hezhou. These were memorials from Buddhist temples in various places.
Without exception, these memorials all repeated the same message: "Master Hongqing, we have received your letter and imperial decree, and we immediately acted according to your instructions. Unfortunately, we are too weak to defeat those demon cultivators. This is truly not our fault. Please allow us to cultivate for a few thousand more years. Then we will be able to help Master Hongqing cleanse the universe and eliminate the demons."
Fang Jian read through the memorials expressionlessly, then slowly tossed them to the ground. He then looked at the assembled officials of the Western Heavenly Palace and said, "It's now clear who our enemy is. Buddhism is behind this, so our Western Heavenly Palace's future strategy will be 30% against demons and 70% against Buddhas."
General Fatan asked, "May I ask, Your Excellency, what does it mean to 'three parts against demons, seven parts against Buddhas'?"
Fang Jian smiled faintly, then explained: "It means using three-tenths of the strength to deal with the demon cultivators headed by Banjieshan, and seven-tenths of the strength to target the Buddhist sect."
Upon hearing this, everyone present was slightly startled. General Fatan then added, "Sir, please forgive my frankness. Although the demon cultivators of Banjie Mountain are backed by the Buddhist sect, the Buddhist sect has not personally intervened to oppose our Xitian Mansion. If we fight the demons 30% and the Buddhas 70%, will this result in our Xitian Mansion alone facing off against both the Buddhas and the demons?"
