After the Monkey King released the three demon kings, he turned around and returned to the Zhongnan Mountain temple. He saw his Honored Master and Laozi holding a Golden Lianhua and smiling at each other while sitting on the couch. Seeing that the Monkey King had returned, he ordered him to invite the other two disciples in the temple. The Monkey King then brought the green bull and Yi Xi to worship the two saints.
The green bull also transformed into a human form. The three of them sat down and listened as Chen Ang held the Golden Lotus and showed it to the three of them. He said, "Just now, the Great Strength Bodhisattva of Spirited Mountain in the West brought a Golden Lotus from the Eight Treasures Merit Pool under Buddha Tathagata. It was a letter that the Great World Lord sent to me and Fellow Daoist Tai Qing."
"The letter said that Fellow Daoist Tai Qing and I will go to the West to spread the Dharma and transform into Buddha. It will be a great merit throughout the Three Realms. However, the Dharma must not be spread easily to prevent the Western barbarians from belittling our Dharma. Therefore, there must be corresponding tribulations. The saints should hold scriptures in one hand and a sword in the other, so that they can fight everywhere.
Chen Ang stopped talking, smiled at Laozi and explained, "Fellow Daoist Taiqing was originally the reincarnation of Laozi. He traveled to the west and became a Buddha. He established the Pure Land and became one of the branches of Mahayana Buddhism in Spirited Mountain in the future. In the future, he achieved enlightenment and became Amitabha, also known as Amitabha Buddha. He went through 49 tribulations and educated the barbarians. "Fellow Daoist Tai Qing is reasonable. He gave me a position, which is in line with the name of my sect, which is Amitabha Buddha and Lao Dan."
"Fellow Daoist Tai Qing is reasonable. He gave me a position, which is in line with the name of my sect, which is Amitabha Buddha and Lao Dan is Amitabha Buddha."
"However, the orthodoxy of Spirited Mountain is stingy. The Great World Lord Tathagata is afraid that he can't suppress two foreign monks like us. Previously, when the Monkey King made a mess in the Heavenly Palace, I set a trap at the foot of Mount Zhongnan. I defeated three of its Bodhisattvas, 800 of its Arhats, and stopped 3,000 of its Buddhas from leaving the gate of Spirited Mountain. Only then did the Great World Lord Tathagata discuss with me."
"Therefore, there was the Golden Lotus Message Pact. The two saints transformed into Buddha and went to the West to teach all living beings. With the increase of Dharma luck, there must be an increase of Devil Hindrance. Under the increase of tribulations, many Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Bhikkhus of Spirited Mountain wanted to come to the Earth to stop me from going to the West. Many demon and demon kings also wanted to take this opportunity."
"According to the Golden Lotus Message Pact, Lao Dan and I are both mortals. It's difficult for us to defeat the Devil Hindrance. Therefore, we need the few of you to protect us. In the future, there will be a few people who are fated to inherit Lao Dan and I to become our disciples and protect us on our way to the West."
Upon hearing this, the Monkey King had an idea. He silently activated his Primordial Spirit. The quantum Primordial Spirit was full of calculations. As it operated, it gradually saw through some of the secrets of heaven that the two saints had concealed. It turned out that the tribulations of becoming Buddha in the West were not that severe. With the two saints' profound background and profound mana, not many people in the world could face the tribulations for them. Therefore, most of them were just passing through the tribulations.
However, Chen Ang was very calculative. He pushed the Monkey King out. After a series of calculations, he caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace and allowed the Monkey King to ascend to the position of the Demon Emperor, which almost caused the Great Tribulation of the Humans and Demons. If the Monkey King was not conferred by the Heavenly Court, his Dharma luck would start from the demons. There would be an almost unstoppable Great Tribulation of the Humans and Demons. The Three Realms would be slaughtered until there was a winner between the humans, the demons, the Heavenly Court, and the demons. 99% of the winners would be the demons, and the Heavenly Court would rule for another hundreds of tribulations. If the Monkey King was only conferred by the Heavenly Court, he could only be a puppet. In the future, he would inevitably have to rebel against the Heavenly Court.
However, Chen Ang's calculations and the Monkey King's hair clones had deceived many demon kings and demon armies. With a foundation and the Dharma luck of the Heavenly Court, there were many unknown changes in the tribulations. Now, many tribulations had not been settled. Chen Ang integrated the Great Tribulation of the Humans and Demons into the Tribulation of becoming Buddha in the West. He wore the appearance of traveling to the West, but in fact, it was the Demon Emperor's tribulations that were determined by the Monkey King.
The tribulations that entangled the three sages were extremely dangerous. In the future, when the great sage, Sakya Mani, Chen Ang, and Lao Dan, traveled to the West, the three sages sat in India and discussed Dao. They developed the Mahayana Buddhism together and turned the Hinayana Buddhism into the Mahayana Buddhism. In a day, they achieved three Buddhas, Sakya Mani, Amitabha, and Amitabha Buddha, and the Amitabha Buddha, and the Devil Tribulation was almost endless.
Such tribulations had exceeded the calculations of anyone except the three sages. Even the Great Heavenly Lord Jade Emperor and the Monkey King could not understand it.
The Monkey King touched the veins and was shocked by the complicated karma. He bowed and said, "There's something that I don't understand. Master, please enlighten me. The tribulations of this journey to the West are really complicated. I don't know how many tribulations and difficulties we'll have to go through. Do you have a number? "
Chen Ang pondered for a moment and suddenly smiled, "There should be 3,000 major tribulations and 129,600 minor tribulations for such complicated tribulations, which is exactly the number of one yuan. However, most of them are the Devil Tribulation of the birth of the three Buddhas, or the tribulations of the Heavenly Court. In the future, the tribulations of the disciples of Taiqing and me will be the total tribulations of the three realms. Many of them will have to be delayed until 2,000 years later. There are only 81 tribulations on this journey to the West."
Lao Dan also opened his eyes. His long eyebrows trembled slightly as he said slowly, "Once we leave the Lou Guan, we'll enter the tribulations and face many tribulations? Wen Shi … "
Yi Xi stepped forward and said, "I'm here!"
Lao Dan said, "The tribulations on you are shallow. Therefore, there's no fate on this journey to the West. When you arrive at Quicksand River, go back! When you return to the Central Plains, teach me the Dao of Dao. "
As soon as Lao Dan said this, Yi Xi sensed it. He knew that the sage was right, so he bowed and promised.
Lao Dan said again, "Green bull!"
The burly man that the green bull transformed into stepped forward and said, "Master, the green bull is here!"
Lao Dan sighed and said, "You've carried me to the West. You've worked hard and been cautious. I'll temporarily give you the Vajra Bracelet to protect yourself. You'll have your own fate in the future!"
The green bull quickly bowed and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Master!"
"Monkey King!" Lao Dan shouted at the end.
The Monkey King went forward and still bowed to him as a master. Lao Jun said, "Although you're Cult Master Chen's disciple, you're also my disciple. You have a deep root of sin. The celestial stone turned into your original form. If you were a human and a monkey, your spirituality would be the strongest. However, the monkey form is unpredictable, so it's the most difficult to subdue it. Therefore, your root of sin is deep because it's difficult to have two hearts."
"You were originally a lawless and out of control person. Even though your wisdom is natural and your perception is superb, it does not conform to my temperament of not doing anything and not doing anything. Therefore, Cult Master Chen thinks highly of you, but I did not teach you anything."
"You're in the midst of a tribulation. If you're a normal cultivator, you'll naturally be terrified. However, you're Cult Master Chen's disciple. I'm afraid that your lineage doesn't care about tribulations at all! You don't cultivate morals, don't respect ethics, don't seek longevity, don't have emotions, don't ask for inner thoughts, don't ask for help from the outside. You're lawless, able to deal with all tribulations, cut off all karma, and only the Dao is in front of you. Cult Master Chen's path of seeking Dao … is too cruel! It's very possible. "
"Monkey King, you know it yourself!" Lao Dan said. He lowered his eyebrows and didn't say anything else.
The Monkey King bowed deeply, and when he stood up again, he was no shorter than Lao Dan. He returned to his seat, and Chen Ang said, "If that's the case, let's pack our luggage and get ready to go." The green bull returned to the empty space in front of the temple and transformed back into its original form. The Monkey King held the golden ship and thought with some difficulty, 'I've used master's carriage to install a lot of equipment. What should I do?'
Before he could think of a way, the golden ship in his hand turned into a bronze carriage. Chen Ang and Lao Dan came out from the temple. Chen Ang glanced at the Monkey King indifferently and got on the carriage without saying anything. The Monkey King was instantly dumbfounded. He didn't know what to say. Could it be that he had to ask his master to lift his butt and release the ten million demon army under him?
