Primordial World: Big shots are all my friends-Chapter 956 - 873: Eastern Land Buddhism

The rest of the inspector squad was also in uproar, all becoming agitated, wondering how the Immortal Gods dared enter Chang’an without fear of being slain by Chang’an’s Luck Golden Dragon?

Before the temple, the Precepts Elder’s expression instantly changed, fearfully exclaiming: "You... who are you? A noble Immortal God impersonating a Buddhist Disciple to trouble us, aren’t you afraid the Buddha will suppress you?"

"I have already said, my name is Tang San, I’m nothing more than an ordinary Buddhist disciple. I reason with you, and you use force against me. I also respond in kind. What can you do?"

Tang San folded his hands and walked towards Baiyun Temple, a Buddha Wheel blooming behind his head, Five-Colored Buddha Light shining brightly, capturing the Great Sun Brightness.

"Buddha~"

"It is the Buddha descending~"

"Buddha bless us~"

"Please bless us, Buddha~"

...

Around him, followers fell to their knees, looking at Tang San with burning eyes, for he is the Buddha, the omniscient, omnipotent Buddha!

The monks also anxiously knelt down, not daring to raise their heads to look at Tang San, thinking how they had troubled the Buddha, fearing they might fall to the Eighteen Layers of Hell!

The Precepts Elder staggered back two steps, murmuring: "Fake Buddha, you are a fake Buddha!"

Tang San’s vast voice echoed through Heaven and Earth: "Five hundred years ago, I, Tang San, received Emperor Taizong’s decree to go west to seek the True Scripture and deliver all people.

I did not fail in this holy mission, endured countless tribulations, overcame numerous obstacles, and finally acquired the True Scripture.

After five hundred years, I return to Chang’an, only to see demons take the Buddha Position, using my Scripture and my name to harm all beings.

The Buddha too has wrath, let alone the humble me~

Today, upon seeing Baiyun Temple taking in temple slaves, secretly issuing high-interest loans, enclosing land and gathering wealth, I am filled with the ire of indulgence. I will cleanse Baiyun Temple, seek justice for the people of Chang’an, and preach at Baiyun Temple for three days to pray for blessings and dispel disasters for the oppressed people."

The whole of Chang’an City was stunned, Tang San the Saint Monk, countless people rushed towards Baiyun Temple, now that Buddhism is flourishing greatly, Tang San has long been mythologized, this legendary myth has descended to the earth, all believers are overwhelmingly excited, coming in droves.

Within the Imperial Palace, the Tang King also led the ministers out of the great hall.

The Tang King was stunned momentarily, murmuring: "Tang San, the Saint Monk who once received Emperor Taizong’s decree to seek the True Scripture in the Western Heaven, he has returned, he still lives."

The Tang King laughed heartily, hurriedly saying: "Someone quickly invite the Saint Monk into the palace, I need to discuss scriptures and teachings with him, I want to learn from him the Tao of longevity."

"Yes~" Immediately, several eunuchs ran out, darting swiftly like phantoms.

The nearby ministers all fell silent, Emperor immortality is an iron law throughout ages, or else it would be a disaster for the nation.

Other Buddhist sects of Great Tang were all astonished, everyone upholds Tang San as a Saint Monk because he is no longer here, hence elevating his position to confirm the legitimacy of the Buddhist Scripture and benefit from All Buddhas.

The masters of many temples certainly do not wish to have a Supreme Buddha above them, especially one unwilling to partake in the same corruption as them.

Tang San led his wife and daughter to thoroughly inspect Baiyun Temple, all interception measures were as ineffective as moths trying to stop a cart, collapsing upon contact.

Beneath the temple, secret basements and water prisons held imprisoned civilian girls.

Gold and silver treasures were piled up like mountains in the treasure vault, armors and weapons.

Countless grains and account books in the granary.

The onlooking people were stunned, was this truly a Buddhist Temple? It was more like a demon lair.

Tang San entrusted the Ruler of Women’s Country to handle the treasures and granary, for the experienced Ruler of Women’s Country, recruiting a few hands to manage these was a trivial task, aiding the imprisoned civilian girls, compensating oppressed civilians double according to the accounts, everything proceeding without a hitch.

Tang San preached at Baiyun Temple for three more days, during the preaching, Earth Erupting Golden Lotus, Jing Guang ravaging, dispelling diseases and calamities, benefiting the surrounding people, countless followers came to listen.

Some laughed heartily, some cried bitterly, others went mad stomping their feet, achieving great enlightenment.

After three days, Tang San left Baiyun Temple with his wife and daughter, heading towards the nearby Golden Lotus Temple, hundreds of devoted followers accompanied, following Tang San to Golden Lotus Temple, where they conducted a similar check, finding conditions not much better than Baiyun Temple.

Tang San began the task of destroying temples and dispelling monks in Great Tang, Buddhism flourished because of him, now it should decline because of him.

For ten years, Tang San traveled across Nan Zhanbu Continent and East Victory Divine Continent, wherever he passed, Buddhism wailed, Buddha Sect disciples gathered in resistance, but against the current sole Buddha of the Three Realms, all resistance was like mirages shattering upon contact.

Ten years later, Tang San descended to Great Tang again, sitting high on the Lotus Platform in golden form, blending the essences of Mahayana Buddhism and Small Mahayana Buddhism, considering the actual circumstances of the Eastern Land, he established Middle Mahayana Buddhism, assuming the position of Eastern Buddha Ancestor to deliver salvation to the beings in the Eastern Land.

A giant Golden Lotus floated above a mountain peak outside Chang’an City, Tang San dressed in Jinlan Kasaya, holding the Nine Ringed Staff, sitting on the Golden Lotus, behind him a Golden Buddha Dharma Body illuminating the heavens and earth, Buddha Wheel shining upon all heavens.

Countless devout monks knelt on the mountain peak, looking fervently at the true Buddha atop the mountain, the great Buddha Ancestor, these monks were Middle Mahayana Buddhist monks selected through stringent examination by the Ruler of Women’s Country, although fewer in number compared to previous Buddhism, yet all true monks who cultivate their body and deliver peoples.

"I perceive that humanity in Southern Jambu-dvīpa, every thought and action is sinful, inflamed by life and death, suffering immensely;

I vow to kindle the Middle Mahayana mind, universally deliver all, willing to bear endless suffering so all beings may attain ultimate happiness. I, Xuanzang, establish Middle Mahayana Buddhism in the Eastern Land, teaching the Eastern Land’s Middle Mahayana Dharma, delivering the beings of Eastern Land.

Namo Amitabha Buddha~"

The people of Great Tang Chang’an all looked up to the golden Buddha in the sky, devoutly worshiping joyfully chanting: "Namo Eastern Buddha Ancestor!"

These years, Tang San had dethroned the old Buddhism, completely destroying its faith, now he established a new Buddhist faith, filling the believers’ spiritual void, establishing Middle Mahayana Buddhism smoothly.

...

On Nine Layers Pass, Tang San’s voice comes.

"I vow to kindle the Middle Mahayana mind, universally deliver all, willing to bear endless suffering so all beings may attain ultimate happiness.

I, Xuanzang, establish Middle Mahayana Buddhism in the Eastern Land, teaching the Eastern Land’s Middle Mahayana Dharma, delivering the beings of Eastern Land.

Namo Amitabha Buddha~"

Countless All Gods all looked down, divine eyes penetrating layers of space, watching Chang’an of Great Tang.

Yang Jian exclaimed, "Tang San intends to establish a new Buddhism in the East."

Nezha chuckled and said, "What’s so surprising about that? Didn’t Shakyamuni establish a new Buddhism too, seizing Randeng Buddha’s Buddha Position?" 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

In the Palace of the Polestar, the Jade Emperor laughed heartily and said, "Interesting, interesting, Tathagata’s three disciples have all betrayed him.

First Wutian turned to fiend, then Aynava sided with Wutian, and now even Tang San established a new Buddhism in the Eastern Land, truly failing as a master to this extent.

Haha~"
