My Senior Brother is Too Steady Chapter 733

Chapter 734 - Seizing Power in the Spiritual Mountain

It was too painful.

Li Changshou could not stop laughing in his heart. He looked worried and ferocious. At that moment, Li Changshou was really in too much pain.

What is this wave?

Daoist Duobao was stealing from the sect. The Grand Supreme Elder had taken action to intercept the destiny of the Western Sect. The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning had appeared to suppress Daoist Jie Yin. The Heavenly Dao took advantage of the situation and made the Saint guide lose his influence in the world.

This hidden line had been buried for too long.

From the moment the Grand Pure One deduced that Wen Jing was going to suck a golden lotus from Wen Jing, the show was already under the control of the Grand Pure One. Li Changshou participated the entire time.

However, neither of them took the initiative to mention the word “Buddha”. Every exchange was hidden in the conversation that happened once every eighteen days.

Li Changshou had reminded the Grand Pure One a long time ago that the Western Sect might have a countermeasure that he could use to reference the Heavenly Dao oath template.

The Grand Pure One also reminded Li Changshou not to reveal those things. Otherwise, the two Saints of the Western Sect might destroy their schemes by completely joining the Heavenly Dao.

In the end, due to the pressure of the Heavenly Dao and the Dao Ancestor, the Grand Pure One entrusted the matter to the Grand Supreme Elder.

After that, Li Changshou steadily hid in the Western Sect with Daoist Wen Jing and approached the golden lotus step by step.

Previously, at the end of the Great God-Conferment Tribulation, when the Heavenly Dao and Jie Yin attacked the immortals of Jie School at the same time, Wen Jing destroyed the golden lotus and allowed the thousands of disciples of Jie School who had received the guidance of the Saint to destroy the destiny of the Western Sect.

According to the rules of the Heavenly Dao, the Western Sect was a huge black household. If there was a huge sect that replaced it and spread the teachings of the Western Sect as soon as possible, they would naturally give it a push secretly.

Only when all these preparations were in place did it give Duobao the possibility of establishing a Buddhist sect.

Daoist Duobao could not just recite the sutras and preach the teachings.

It included the battle for destiny and the schemes of Ren School for many years.

Not to mention that the Buddha who was about to take over the spiritual mountain was Senior Brother Duobao. In fact, the one who had contributed greatly to this matter was…

Li Changshou was about to raise his hand when a hand pressed on his shoulder. The figure walked out from the side.

Great Daoist Master Xuan Du.

If not for the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du’s “allure” of mosquitoes, Wen Jing might have hesitated when she picked up the mosquito and missed the opportunity.

Li Changshou silently praised the Great Daoist Master’s family who were riding the Kun Peng to travel the Chaos Sea.

At that moment, Duobao maintained his Buddha’s true body and smiled. He slowly approached the spiritual mountain from the southeast.

Although the Grand Supreme Elder had returned to the Heavenly Courts, the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning sat on a white cloud and slowly followed Daoist Duobao in the sky. There was a smile in his eyes.

In this wave, the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning stood at the highest level.

The atmosphere on the spiritual mountain was extremely oppressive.

Daoist Jie Yin sat quietly in the deepest part of the main hall. He did not need to hide his emotions. At that moment, he must be in a mess.

Before he became a Saint in ancient times, Zhun Ti and his senior and junior brothers had been working hard because of the saying that the Western Sect was destined to prosper.

They were unscrupulous. They lied, deceived, and stole. They even taught it to the disciples who were chosen to develop the sect.

All their efforts were for the prosperity of the Western Sect. They wanted to prevent them from being compared to the Connate Realm that the Three Pure Ones had transformed from their Pangu Divine Essence Soul!

For the sake of Saints like them, he was on par with the Three Pure Ones!

That was what they were fighting for.

However, in the end…

It was empty.

In fact, because Saint Zhun Ti did not have a bottom line, he was killed by the two disciples of the Dao Sect.

As a Great Saint, he was still a few steps behind the Grand Pure One. He was suppressed by the Grand Pure One and could not resist.

He had schemed against the Dao Sect for so many years.

After sowing discord between Chan School and Jie School for so many years, a huge battle finally erupted in Chan School. However, Ren School used the method of stealing the sky and changing the sun. Before the Western Sect was about to prosper, they intercepted the teachings of the Western Sect.

At the same time, he completely blocked the way.

That bastard was not involved in this matter. He did not believe that the Dao Ancestor had committed suicide!

Even though he was usually magnanimous, cultured, and shrewd, his Dao heart was a little unstable at that moment. There was an indescribable anger in his heart.

Then, he looked at the disciples!

Daoist Jie Yin swept his gaze across the disciples below and saw that half of the disciples were sitting behind Wen Shu, Pu Xian, Ju Liusun, and Ci Hang.

Although the other half of the disciples were still sitting in their original positions, the Void Bodhi was the only one in the front row and closest to him.

Jie Yin revealed a gratified smile and sized up his disciple.

Apart from Ksitigarbha, Bodhi was probably the one that he was the most satisfied with.

Compared to hundreds of years ago, Bodhi’s Dao realm had already reached this realm. It was similar to Maitreya back then.

They chatted to comfort each other.

At the side, Jia Ye said in a low voice, “Teacher, how should we deal with this matter?”

Jie Yin was silent.

An old Daoist priest said in a low voice, “The Grand Pure One is really impressive. He has completely deduced the fate of the Western Sect and arranged this in advance.”

“What a Buddhist Sect. It condensed the teachings of our Western Sect and mixed with the essence of many Dao Sects. It directly seized the luck that our Western Sect should have prospered!”

“Now is not the time to talk about that.” An old Daoist priest sighed and said, “Duobao previously said that you are the Buddha of all ages, but you already have the intention to snatch the spiritual mountain. The Heavenly Lord of Chan School followed behind. The pressure is obvious. We should think of a way to deal with it. We should either block the other party’s words or be prepared to fight.”

“Alright.” Ah Nan sighed and said, “Teacher, as long as you say a word, we will naturally stop the treasures outside the spiritual mountain.”

Jie Yin looked at Jia Ye and Ah Nan and saw Wen Shu and the other Daoists who were separated from him.

Daoist Wen Shu pondered for a while and said, “The current situation is very disadvantageous for us.”

Then, he fell silent.

Daoist Jie Yin suddenly smiled and said slowly, “Then, what should we do with your construction, Wenshu?”

“I’m stupid.” Daoist Wen Shu hurriedly lowered her head. “I don’t dare to speak nonsense in front of Teacher… This… Senior Brother Bodhi has made successive breakthroughs in his cultivation in recent years. He is very famous around the world. He is intelligent and resourceful. He definitely has a brilliant plan to deal with the current situation.”

The Void Bodhi, who was also Li Changshou, turned to look at Wen Shu. He frowned slightly and his eyes were filled with warning.

Daoist Wen Shu smiled humbly.

Li Changshou did not say anything and just pondered. The situation was in a deadlock.

Daoist Ci Hang tried to smooth things over. “I feel that we should talk to Duobao and ask him what he wants to do on the spiritual mountain.”

“That’s right.” An old Daoist priest immediately echoed. “Teacher is the ruler of the Saints. It’s not appropriate to talk to the disciples of the Saints, Duobao.”

Li Changshou chuckled in his heart.

Too good.

These disciples of the Western Sect were too good.

He took the initiative and stood on the side. He fully displayed his excellent character of “people go higher, water flows lower”. He directly walked past Jie Yin and discussed with Duobao how to divide the Buddhist Dao fruits.

Really…

They were indeed a family.

After the core disciples of the Western Sect recognized the current situation, they quickly made a judgment.

What is the current situation?

The future path of the Western Sect was stolen. Duobao turned into the master of the Buddhist Sect and gave Saint Jie Yin a title. Then, he raised Saint Jie Yin up high and wanted to come to the spiritual mountain to seize power.

The Grand Supreme Elder had already returned to the Tushita Palace. However, the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning had come together, causing the Saint of Welcoming to not dare to move.

The Pangu Banner was floating in the sky.

The Heavenly Dao only recognized the word ‘Buddhist’ and the essence of Buddhism. It did not matter who the Buddha was. He just had to listen in the future.

What was even more interesting was that Wen Shu, Pu Xian, Ju Liusun, and Ci Hang, the four traitors of Chan School who had returned to the Western Sect, were calm and composed when the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning was about to arrive. It was as if they had long known about this scene.

What did Wen Shu and the others do when they returned to the spiritual mountain?

They formed factions, ostracized the Void Bodhi, and took away some old Daoists who were opposing them. Before the Saint could speak, they firmly controlled the power of the spiritual mountain.

No matter how he looked at it, this was a conspiracy with the Duobao’s transformation into a Buddha today!

Unless the Saint took action and washed the spiritual mountain with blood, there was no way to stop the spiritual mountain from being invaded today.

However, it was just the bitter fruit of his own efforts.

Their master was doing it, and their disciples were watching. They would do whatever their master taught them today.

What was worse was that Li Changshou was secretly helping him. At that moment, he was determined to break through the defense of Saint Jie Yin.

“Teacher…”

The Void Bodhi called out softly and whispered, “I want to return to the Cave Abode to cultivate. I’ll temporarily leave the spiritual mountain.”

The Daoist priest frowned. Just as he was about to say something, he nodded slowly and said, “It’s good that you left. At least, I still have a legacy.”

“Thank you for teaching me, Teacher. I can’t repay you.”

The Void Bodhi stood up and bowed to Daoist Jie Yin. Then, he turned to look at Wen Shu and the others.

At that moment, the disciples of the Western Sect did not say anything. Only a few of them looked at Li Changshou, but they quickly looked away.

“Hmph.” Li Changshou snorted coldly with a gloomy expression. He rode a cloud and flew out of the spiritual mountain.

The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning took a look. Li Changshou’s Dao heart tensed up, but he pretended to be calm.

In the end, the Second Uncle-Master did not see any clues. At that moment, he did not stop the Void Bodhi and allowed it to leave on a cloud.

On the spiritual mountain, there was no one beside him.

The scene of forcing their way into the palace was quietly played out on the spiritual mountain with the gradual approach of the treasures and the support of the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning.

Li Changshou did not go far.

At that moment, he grasped the character of the Void Bodhi and felt that such a method was the most reasonable and flawless.

The Void Bodhi had a kind of “purity” that was similar to Ksitigarbha in his bones. He did not want to be in cahoots with Wen Shu and the others. However, he was a little cautious. He had been chased and targeted previously.

At that moment, choosing to leave the spiritual mountain was the most realistic and appropriate reaction.

The living beings on the spiritual mountain were actually not worthy of his pity. He did not have the right to pity the Heavenly Dao Saint.

They were just doing their own things.

He did not leave too far away and observed the situation on the spiritual mountain thousands of kilometers away.

Duobao arrived at the top of the spiritual mountain with the rays of light. It sat cross-legged on the lotus platform and bowed to the Saint who was receiving it. Its bright, mellow, and slow voice rippled throughout the spiritual mountain.

“Greetings, Buddha of All Ages.”

Jie Yin nodded expressionlessly and seemed to have made a decision.

“Since you respect me, you should address me as Teacher.”

“Buddha is the position of Supremacy. I am the Supremacy of the world. My intention is the Supremacy of the world,” Duobao said slowly. “The Buddha of the myriad ages exists in the past, present, and future. He established the foundation of the Buddhist Sect, but he does not have to appear in front of others. I’m only expressing my respect for the Buddha. There’s no need for me to follow and look forward to it.”

The Daoist priest’s expression was indescribably ugly.

This time, he was forced to retire.

Jie Yin said, “Since you respect me, I can depose you.”

“You are wrong.” Duobao pinched the flower and smiled. He said Buddhist logic, “The Buddhist Sect was established by me. The Buddha came from me. Everything is here today. All the fruits are here. The Buddha had done all of that for his main body. The Buddha of the past should exist in the past. The Buddha of the future is in the future, and we only exist in the present. The current venerable was the Lord of Buddha. Although the Buddha has established the foundation of the Buddhist Sect, he can’t depose me before the Buddhist Sect is born.”

Daoist Jie Yin was silent for a while. Then, he nodded slowly and said, “I underestimated you.”

“Since Buddhism is prospering, please do not use the Dao Sect to call yourself Buddha in the future.” Daoist Duobao smiled and said, “Buddhism and Daoism come from the same source. The world is unpredictable. The Buddha has boundless merit and endless lifespan. From today onwards, he would name himself Amitabha.

Everyone who enters the Buddhist Sect will remember the contributions of the Buddha to build the Western Pure Land. They will praise the contributions of the Buddha and use the words ‘Boundless Buddha’ as a Zen.”

After saying that, Duobao pressed his palms together and bowed to Jie Yin.

“Namo Amitabha.”

As soon as his voice spread, the entire spiritual mountain was silent.

It was unknown who was the first to put their palms together and recite the Buddhist name. The old Daoists of the Western Sect and the core disciples of the Western Sect chanted the name of the Buddha.

Jie Yin smiled in relief. His body slowly dissipated from the meditation cushion, as if victory was in his grasp.

Daoist Duobao looked down at the disciples of the Western Sect and smiled calmly.

“Today, we will set the rules of the Buddhist Sect. We will clarify the teachings of the Buddhist Sect and perfect the teachings of the Buddhist Sect.”

The Western Sect disciples stood up and bowed. They pressed their palms together.

Golden light shone on the spiritual mountain, and an auspicious sign appeared. A small amount of merit landed.

Without the Nine Polluted Spring, the Heavenly Dao could not casually “print merit”. At that moment, the rewards were all deducted and searched.

Li Changshou naturally did not obtain any merit. At that moment, he had already become an outsider. Patriarch Bodhi had no substantial connection with the Buddhist Sect.

Not bad.

On the way back to the Spiritual Platform Mountain on a cloud, Li Changshou lowered his head and pondered which aspect Jie Yin might counter.

Look at the Buddhist Sect. Their outer appearance is that of the Western Sect. They already have the Dao in their nature.

Later, their “celebration” would have nothing to do with Li Changshou.

In just a few days, the news that the Buddhist Sect had just been established and that the Heavenly Dao had given them a great destiny spread throughout the Primordial World.

Duobao called himself Gautama. He was the Buddha Lord and Buddha. He determined the positions of Buddha, Bodhisattva, Arhat, and Vajra. He also conferred a few great Bodhisattvas on the spot and gave some “idle names” to the disciples of the most experienced Saints of the Western Sect.

Duobao handed the teachings to a few Bodhisattva scholars to manage. He was happy and carefree.

A few days later, General Dongmu of the Heavenly Courts went to the spiritual mountain to issue a decree. The Buddha Lord of the spiritual mountain was conferred the position of as one of the five elders. However, in name, the Buddhist Sect would be under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Courts in the future.

The Buddhists agreed happily and officially embarked on the journey to prosperity.

Duobao did not forget to hide in the Netherworld. A Dharma decree descended and the fief was hidden as a Buddha.

Ksitigarbha faced the Dharma decree and was silent for a long time. In the end, he destroyed the Dharma decree and said the legendary words.

“If hell is not empty, I swear not to become a Buddha.”

In other words, Ksitigarbha had accepted his Buddhist teachings, but he did not accept the fact that the spiritual mountain had a new owner. He did not respect the Dharma decree of many treasures and continued to be the pillar of luck of the Buddhist Sect. He would not cause trouble in the spiritual mountain.

From then on, he would forever suppress the Netherworld and convert the vengeful spirits to relieve the suffering of living beings.

Daoist Jie Yin lived in seclusion in the back mountain of the spiritual mountain. He no longer revealed his whereabouts in the world. His aura had almost completely disappeared.

Li Changshou sighed at the Saint’s situation.

After some hesitation, Li Changshou took the initiative to go to the Huaguo Mountain of the East Continent. Under the surveillance of the Heavenly Dao, he looked at the Spirit Embryo in the Stone.

This time, there was a heartbeat.
