Honghuang: Rebirth of Lingzhu, I am the leader of the West

A hundred years have passed, and things have changed.

The world has changed a lot.

After hundreds of years of recuperation, the Tang Dynasty has become prosperous, with abundant crops, thriving business, strong military and strong horses, and is becoming more and more prosperous.

Especially in Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, people do not pick up things on the road, doors are not locked at night, and lanterns are bright all night long, just like the stars in the world, bustling and prosperous.

Li Yuan died of old age, and the new emperor Li Shimin ascended the throne.

Under his governance, in just a hundred years, the national strength of the Tang Dynasty has reached a higher level, with flowers blooming and oil boiling, and it is at its peak. Because of this, the Tang Dynasty has received more favor from humanity and is expected to become the fourth dynasty of the human race.

Even if Buddhism did not flourish, it would be favored by all parties, not to mention such a good opportunity, and they all made their moves.

If the Qin Dynasty was supported by Youdu, the Peacock Dynasty was backed by Buddhism, and the Han Dynasty was led by Xuanmen, then the future Tang Dynasty was backed by the Heaven.

Unfortunately, Li Shimin was not the eldest son. He killed his brother to gain the throne. Although there were reasons, he still felt guilty.

Ksitigarbha seized the opportunity and used the Western human and earth qi to temporarily block the Eastern human perception. With the help of Nuwa, and no ill will towards the king, he successfully performed the dream marriage technique on Li Shimin, making him unable to sleep every night.

Finally, he convened a water and land ceremony, inviting the masters of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism in Kyushu to come and solve the problem. Naturally, only Master Xuanzang, the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi, could solve the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's magic. However, if he wanted to truly eradicate it, or even save all living beings and benefit the human race and the spirits of Kyushu, he would need Mahayana Buddhism to help the Tang Dynasty to become a prosperous dynasty.

The Journey to the West officially began, and Tang Xuanzang was ordered to go west to seek scriptures.

…………

The Monkey King of Wuzhi Mountain was born, the white dragon of Yingchoujian turned into a horse, Bajie of Gao Laozhuang returned to the team, and the monk Sha of Liusha River joined the team...

After the Journey to the West arrived, they officially set out on the journey to the west.

All the way to get along, move forward, and defeat demons all the way.

During this period, they encountered many difficulties and challenges, especially the trip to Wuzhuang Temple, which left a deep impression on them. Zhen Yuanzi's hidden arts and profound cultivation made Sun Wukong stand in awe and look at the world with awe and scrutiny.

It is worth mentioning that Zhen Yuanzi did not become sworn brothers with Sun Wukong. After all, he was an ancient sacred and late quasi-saint. In this age without saints, he was second only to alternative righteousness. No matter how extraordinary Sun Wukong was, he could not make him condescend to him and lower his generation.

Besides, many great powers in the Three Realms were of the same generation as him, and saints were among them. If he really did so, it would really hurt others and not benefit himself. Zhen Yuanzi would not do such a thankless thing.

When she encountered the White Bone Demon, she did not rely solely on the corpse-reincarnation method. The White Bone Demon, a wild demon with low combat power, had long been accepted as a disciple by the Asura King under Emperor Shi Tian. She had practiced for thousands of years and had the cultivation of a Taiyi Golden Immortal. She was also proficient in various Asura techniques and was strange and unpredictable.

With wisdom and strength, the White Bone Demon made Sun Wukong and Tang Seng eatAfter suffering enough, he was finally subdued by Emperor Shi Tian who came. After being taken back to Lingshan, the White Bone Demon was named the White Bone Bodhisattva of Buddhism and surrendered to the Lord of Freedom Demon, Po Xun, becoming one of the heart calamities of Buddhism.

Just to really become a force to be reckoned with, it takes time to accumulate and improve one's own cultivation to be famous in Buddhism.

When the pilgrims arrived at the Thorn Ridge, the plants and creatures such as Xingxian and Gu Zhigong were no longer passively beaten like in the previous life, without any ability to fight back.

They were born in the plant family of Lingtai Dharma Realm, and they were disciples of Baihuaxian and Baicaoxian. They practiced for tens of thousands of years and had a high level of cultivation. They all reached the realm of Taiyi Jinxian, were proficient in many plant magical powers, and had a good attainment in formation. They were no match for Sun Wukong in a single fight, but after setting up a large formation, the Monkey King was really exhausted.

The difficulty of Lion Camel Ridge, although the Qiu Shou Immortal and Ling Ya Immortal were gone, but there were White Tiger Jin Tu, the fierce beast Ao Hen and the Golden Wing Dapeng, which made Sun Wukong exhausted. It was not until the Buddha Tathagata personally took action that he subdued the three monsters.

After occupying Lion Camel Ridge, they did not devour the creatures of Lion Camel Country like the Ling Ya Immortal and the three monsters in the previous life. They just cast an illusion to make the pilgrims think that they like blood and enjoy eating people, which is extremely evil.

When the True and False Monkey King, Liu Er Mihou appeared and competed with Sun Wukong. He was born the earliest among the four monkeys in the world. He was born when Hongjun Daozu first preached. He was judged by Daozu that the law would not be passed on to Liu Er.

Since then, Liu Er Mihou's pursuit of Taoism was not smooth, and he encountered obstacles everywhere. He wasted his time. Even in the period of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, he cultivated into Taiyi Jinxian with the inheritance that he had pieced together.

Until Mo Yan decided to accept the four monkeys, he deliberately let the six-eared macaque hear his words of calling him, and the six-eared macaque joined the Lingtai Mountain lineage and received systematic guidance and practice.

Today, he has already achieved the Golden Immortal of Daluo.

As for Hongjun Daozu's words, Mo Yan did not take it to heart. The law was not passed on to the six-eared macaque, but it was just what Hongjun Daozu said. He was the Daozu and had a broad mind. How could he really care about the six-eared macaque? It was just that other great powers could not figure out the Daozu's mind and were afraid of complications, so they did not dare to bring trouble to themselves.

Mo Yan did not have this concern. At that time, he was the first disciple of the third generation of Xuanmen, and Hongjun Daozu would not embarrass him, a junior, because of this matter.

Besides, the Western Church had never been well received by Daozu, so he was not afraid of one more thing.

……

Shakyamuni saw all this, the Buddhas of Lingshan saw it, and the great powers of the Three Realms also saw it.

The eighty-one difficulties were set up not only to divide the merits, but also because the Dharma is not easily passed on, and the scriptures are not easily taught. Moreover, because the nodes are special, the five people who are seeking the scriptures need to stay for a longer period of time to achieve the infusion and interaction of luck. One of the tasks of the demons on the nodes is to delay time as much as possible.

Of course, the Buddhist sect attaches great importance to Sun Wukong. The demons entrenched on the eighty-one nodes have different strengths and various means, which can allow Sun Wukong to understand some of the means of the Three Realms as soon as possible, know the depth of the Three Realms, and understand the true meaning of the journey to the West.

Spiritual platform Fangcun Mountain, Xieyue Sanxing Cave.

Moyan tried his best to comprehend the principles and mysteries of the middle thousand worlds.

Occasionally waking up, knowingAfter Xiao had everything under control for the Journey to the West, he quickly went into seclusion again, ignoring everything outside.

The rules had been set, and there were Buddhist masters headed by Sakyamuni watching, as well as Bodhi Patriarch and Pudu Daxian paying attention, and the favor of the Heavenly Dao. The preparations were sufficient, and even if something went wrong, it could be corrected in time, so Mo Yan could rest assured to go into seclusion.

The Buddhist revival had been arranged, and the Journey to the West was progressing in an orderly manner. At present, the most important thing was his path.

This was the top priority!

…………

The Journey to the West was neither long nor short.

It was short because it was only a dozen years.

It was long because their experience along the way was more exciting than that of other practitioners in hundreds or even thousands of years.

It was a wonderful drama for many masters in the Three Realms.

When the group arrived at the foot of Lingshan Mountain, the Immortal Pudu appeared in person to guide them.

The five people who came to the pilgrimage brought an opportunity for the prosperity of Buddhism. After going through eighty-one difficulties, they deserved such courtesy.

The eyes of the powerful people in the three realms were also focused on Lingshan Mountain.
