Western Paradise, Leiyin Temple, Mahavira Hall.
On the 12th Grade Golden Lotus Platform, Gautama Buddha furrowed his brows and had a gloomy look on his face. He didn't know what was going on, but he had a bad feeling just now, as though something bad was about to happen to him.
Because he didn't know who the problem was, Gautama Buddha couldn't figure it out. Of course, this was also because he subconsciously thought that Guanyin Bodhisattva wouldn't be in trouble.
"Even Taoism has compromised under the Heavenly Law. Are there any other forces that dare to stop the rise of the Leiyin Temple?"
Gautama Buddha wanted to go out and take a look himself, but he was afraid that leaving the Leiyin Temple would arouse the suspicion of other forces. He couldn't sit still and his heart grew heavier, afraid that something beyond his control would happen.
"Why isn't Guanyin Bodhisattva back yet?"
Gautama Buddha felt that Guanyin Bodhisattva, who had only left for a few days, had been gone for hundreds of years. Guanyin Bodhisattva was the person in charge of the pilgrimage. She could roam the three realms freely and save Xuanzang and his disciples.
He only asked Guanyin Bodhisattva to check where the four were. She should have returned long ago to report. Why was it taking so long?
"Buddha, Taibai Jinxing is here to report something important."
The Vajra guarding the Mahavira Hall walked in slowly and bowed to Gautama Buddha respectfully.
Although Taibai Jinxing looked flustered, the Vajra Lord was very calm. Nothing in the three realms could escape from Gautama Buddha's control.
"Then hurry up and invite Taibai Jinxing."
Gautama Buddha said hurriedly.
He felt that the urgent matter Taibai Jinxing mentioned had something to do with his worries. Therefore, he couldn't wait to get the news from Taibai Jinxing.
Seeing Gautama Buddha's anxious expression, the Vajra Lord was puzzled but still went to invite Taibai Jinxing.
"Buddha, the Heavenly Court just checked the lower realm and found that all the demons on the pilgrimage have disappeared. Also, we received bad news. Guanyin Bodhisattva seems to have passed away."
Taibai Jinxing secretly sized up Gautama Buddha on the golden lotus platform from the corner of his eyes. After which, he lowered his head and slowly said.
He didn't say that it was Taishang Laojun who discovered it because he didn't want Gautama Buddha to think too much.
As for whether Gautama Buddha would know later that it was Taishang Laojun who discovered it, he wouldn't be in the Leiyin Temple anymore.
"Buzz ~"
A beam of golden light shot straight into the Mahavira Hall, stretching across the sky, instantly attracting the attention of the deities and Buddhas of the Three Realms.
"Why did Lord Tathagata leave the Great Thunderclap Monastery?"
Tathagata Buddha was different from Old Lord Taishang. Old Lord Taishang's position in Daoism was transcendent and low key, while Tathagata Buddha was the controller of the Great Thunderclap Monastery. His every word and action could affect the powers of the Three Realms.
Under normal circumstances, no one would pay attention to where Old Lord Taishang was or what he was doing. However, Gautama Buddha was different. Wherever he went, he represented the attitude of Buddhism.
Now that the Tathagata Buddha had rushed out in such a high profile manner, something big must have happened.
The golden light was endless, and the sound of Sanskrit rose in spirals. Tathagata Buddha's eyes were like two resplendent suns, and his powerful aura suppressed all the continents. The golden light that filled the sky scattered over the mountains and rivers, inspecting every difficulty on the path of seeking scriptures in the western paradise.
"Gone, it's all gone!"
Gautama Buddha's face was incomparably gloomy. His eyes flickered with a cold light as he spoke softly.
He never would have thought that other than Old Lord Taishang and the Jade Emperor, there was actually someone else in the Three Realms who dared to interfere with the journey of seeking scriptures in the western paradise.
"Who is it? Zhen Yuanzi? Impossible! Yuanshi Tianzun? Also impossible! Jade Emperor? Also impossible! … … "
Gautama Buddha's mind quickly thought of some powerhouses who had the ability to interfere with the journey of seeking scriptures in the western paradise. However, he eliminated all of them. He really couldn't think of anyone else who dared to interfere.
Under the surveillance of the Great Thunderclap Monastery and the Heavenly Court, there were only a few people in the Three Realms who could eliminate most of the demons on the journey of seeking scriptures in the western paradise without anyone knowing.
However, these people had already discussed it before, and he had also taken out enough benefits to appease them. If they disturbed the journey of seeking scriptures in the western paradise, they wouldn't just offend him, but all the powers that participated in the discussion.
"Guanyin Bodhisattva?"
Gautama Buddha's expression was solemn. His hand formed a lotus shape to deduce the location of Guanyin Bodhisattva. However, his hand stiffened for a moment, and the muscles on his face couldn't help but tremble a few times. His eyes revealed a cold light.
If his guess was correct, it was really as Taibai Jinxing said, Guanyin Bodhisattva had been killed.
"Who? Who is it? "
Especially when he saw Tripitaka and his three disciples on the journey of seeking scriptures in the western paradise, Gautama Buddha was furious. He felt that the mastermind behind the scenes was mocking him.
They were clearly disrupting the journey of seeking scriptures in the western paradise, but they left Tripitaka and his three disciples behind. Wasn't this reversing the order?
They only needed to suppress Tripitaka and his three disciples. If they were gone, how could they continue the journey of seeking scriptures in the western paradise?
Now that the demons on the journey of seeking scriptures in the western paradise had been eliminated, and Guanyin Bodhisattva, who was in charge of seeking scriptures in the western paradise, had been killed, if they continued to insist on seeking scriptures in the western paradise, the Great Thunderclap Monastery would become the laughing stock of the Three Realms.
"Huff ~" "Huff ~" "Huff ~"
Although Gautama Buddha was furious, he calmed down after taking a few deep breaths. He scanned the Three Realms with his cold eyes, and then returned to the Great Thunderclap Monastery.
"Order Dipankara Buddha and Maitreya Buddha to lead the Bodhisattva of Ten Directions and the Three Thousand Arhats to capture the murderer of Guanyin Bodhisattva."
Whether it was the Maitreya Buddha of the Small Thunderclap Monastery or the Dipankara Ancient Buddha who lived in seclusion behind the scenes, they were all summoned by Gautama Buddha. The Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats who were scattered all over the world were all summoned by Gautama Buddha.
Gautama Buddha was ready for an all-out war with the mastermind behind the scenes. He had to eliminate this mastermind to wash away the shame of the Great Thunderclap Monastery.
The huge movement of Buddhism was not hidden at all. Buddhas and Bodhisattvas could be seen everywhere, patrolling the four major continents, looking for any suspicious people.
"Guanyin Bodhisattva is dead?"
In the Bhikkhu Kingdom, Tripitaka was in the room to expiate the dead Guanyin Bodhisattva. Meanwhile, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Monk Sand were sitting in the hall. Zhu Bajie and Monk Sand were pale and trembling.
So many monsters had died along the way, but they had never been so afraid. They were frightened, as if there was a sword on their backs, as if there was a heavenly knife on their heads.
Although the monsters who died before had a background, they were actually not famous in the Three Realms.
Guanyin Bodhisattva was different. Even giants like the Jade Emperor and Zhenyuanzi had to treat Guanyin Bodhisattva with respect.
Now that Guanyin Bodhisattva had fallen, it was a major event that shook the Three Realms.
"Boom ~"
At this moment, a deafening sound came from the sky. It was like a thunderclap, spreading throughout the entire Bhikkhu Kingdom.
"Gautama Buddha, come and save me!"
Manjushri Bodhisattva's clothes were ragged and he was covered in blood. He had lost an arm. He turned into a bloody light and flew toward the Great Thunderclap Monastery. His miserable voice came from the sky.
Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Monk Sand ran out immediately. The bloody figure in the sky turned out to be another one of the four Bodhisattvas, Manjushri Bodhisattva.
"Bang!"
A bloody arm fell right in front of the three of them.
"Gautama Buddha, save me."
Before Sun Wukong and the other two could react, another bloody light crossed the sky thousands of miles away. Only Sun Wukong could vaguely see that it was another Bodhisattva.
"Gautama Buddha, save me!"
This time, Sun Wukong and the other two saw the bloody light clearly. It was Lingji Bodhisattva who had borrowed Sun Wukong's Air-frozen Bead.
