Chapter 528 Tathagata Returns
At this time, three levels of the Golden Lotus of Merit had been consumed.

The original twelve-grade golden lotus of merit now only has nine grades.

Looking at the Golden Lotus of Merit whose grade had been reduced, the corner of the mouth of the Buddha Jieying Light King could not help but twitch.

Got it!

Now the Golden Lotus of Merit has been destroyed.

Think about it.

What kind of person is Rahu?
How could it be easy to awaken his good thoughts and help them control the remaining soul?
Such a large consumption is normal.

Now that things have been settled, there is no room for regret.

It is better to hurry up and properly settle the remaining soul of Rāhu, which has been temporarily saved.

Then the Buddha of Receiving Light said to the remaining soul of Rāhu: “You have recovered your original appearance. Are you willing to convert to Buddhism?”

After hearing this, Luo Hou’s remaining soul replied: “Disciple is willing to convert to Buddhism!”

Upon hearing this, the Buddha of Receiving Light nodded and said, “I will give you the name Kinnara!
I order you to be named Kinnara Bodhisattva!
I hope you will practice well in the future, keep your original intention, and don’t let evil thoughts arise again.”

As soon as the Buddha of Receiving Light finished speaking, Kinnara replied, “Disciple, I obey your command!”

After replying, Kinnara stepped aside.

The Buddha of Receiving Light King then said to Duobao: “Duobao Tathagata!”

Upon hearing this, Tathagata stepped forward and said, “Disciple is here!”

Looking at Tathagata who came forward to obey his orders, the Buddha of Receiving Light had mixed feelings.

Logically speaking.

Tathagata should be happy that a disciple with such talent and character can join his Buddhist sect.

But now, the Buddha of Reception and Light could not be happy.

It’s because each of them knows clearly what position they hold in the other’s heart.

Each party knows very well how the other party sees themselves.

After a moment’s silence, the Buddha Jieying Guangwang said, “Tathagata!
Our Buddhist sect has established the Buddhas of the past, present and future.

Among them, the past Buddhas and the future Buddhas have already completed the enthronement.

Only the present Buddha is still empty.

It was originally reserved for you.

Now that you have returned, today I, on behalf of Buddhism, will confer upon you the title of Tathagata Buddha.

This ninth-grade golden lotus of merit is bestowed upon you as the certificate for you to take charge of Buddhism.

I hope you will practice well in the future, and at the same time, don’t forget to revitalize the West.”

After he finished speaking, the Buddha Jieying Guangwang swept his sleeves.

Only the ninth level of the Golden Lotus of Merit will remain
Upon hearing this, Tathagata hurriedly took the Ninth Grade Golden Lotus of Merit.

He put his hands together and said, “Disciple obeys my command!
Disciples should take it as their responsibility to revitalize the West and live up to the saints’ trust.

I am the Buddha!
We should establish Mahayana Buddhism to show the profoundness of our Buddhist teachings and obtain the Mahayana of all dharmas. “

As Tathagata finished speaking, two rays of merit fell from the sky.

One of them fell on Tathagata.

This is the merit he gained from establishing his religion.

As for the other one, it fell on Laozi.

However, as soon as these merits were bestowed upon him, they were taken away by Laozi and not integrated into his own merits.

As soon as Tathagata finished speaking, the expression of the Buddha Jie Yin Guang Wang immediately became a little gloomy.

Although he had been mentally prepared, when Tathagata really acted according to the instructions of the Supreme, he still found it difficult to accept.

What the hell is going on?

The head of the Buddhist sect actually has to listen to the orders of the saint of Xuanmen.

However, due to the previous undercover placement, they could not refuse.

Otherwise, you will definitely be suppressed by the Xuanmen.

The Buddhist sect today cannot withstand the methods of Taiyi.

After a moment of silence, the Buddha of Receiving Light clasped his hands together and said, “Amitabha!
Great and merciful Buddha!

Welcome back the Tathagata Buddha!”

As soon as the Buddha Jieying Guangwang finished speaking, all the Buddhist disciples on Mount Lingshan praised in unison: “Amitabha!
We respectfully welcome the return of Tathagata Buddha!”

A few moments.

The Buddhist disciples finished their praises.

The Buddha of Receiving Light King said, “Okay!
Now everything has been arranged.

The three generations of my Buddhist sect have all returned to their positions. From now on, you should manage my Buddhist sect with all your heart.

The important task of revitalizing the West is now in your hands.”

After he finished speaking, the Buddha of Welcoming Light King disappeared from the spot.

Seeing the Buddha Jieying Guangwang leave, Tathagata said: “My fellow Buddhists, today I am returning to my seat and I should have entertained you well.

It’s just that I have just gained some merit and have made some achievements, so I need to go into seclusion for a period of time.

But I cannot entertain you all today.

Ten thousand years later, I will be in the Great Hall of the Buddha at Mount Lingshan, preaching to all the Buddhist friends.

Buddhist friends who are interested can come and listen to my humble opinion. “

After hearing Tathagata’s words, the Buddhist disciples had different thoughts.

But he still replied: “I will obey your orders!”

Afterwards, the cultivators left in groups of three or two.

Among these Buddhist monks, those like Dipankara and Guanyin were feeling particularly heavy-hearted.

At least before, it was Ran Deng who was in charge of Buddhism, and their lives were relatively easy.

But now that Tathagata has returned, Randang’s position as the head monk was immediately taken away.

How to deal with the future requires careful consideration.

Since this concerns their future path, they have no choice but to be cautious.

It’s okay to light the lamp.

Now he has reached the level of a quasi-saint.

With the magical treasures secretly bestowed by the two saints from the West, beheading the corpse will be a natural thing in the future.

But the practice of Guanyin and others is different.

He has just recovered his cultivation and has only just begun to reach the realm of Daluo Jinxian.

This opportunity came about because I had observed the two saints opening up the temple and gained some insights.

The matter of beheading the corpse is even more distant.

Thinking of this, Guanyin and other practitioners immediately showed a hint of sadness on their faces.

After a moment of silence, Ran Deng said, “Okay!
Let’s go back to the Snow Mountain first.”

After hearing what Randang said, Guanyin and other practitioners could only nod in agreement.

soon.

All the Buddhist monks on Lingshan Mountain dispersed, and Lingshan Mountain returned to peace.

On a hill not far from Lingshan, Taiyi looked at the empty gate of Lingshan.

He turned to Laozi and said, “Uncle Master, Tathagata has now returned to his position.

Among the monks of the four religions, there are also monks who break through by beheading corpses.

What should I do next?”

After hearing Taiyi’s question, Laozi was silent for a while.

How to answer this?

Now that the saints have retreated into chaos, the prehistoric world has become the world of quasi-saints.

And among the ancient cultivators, how many quasi-saints are there?
After a while, the number will be in the thousands.

With so many quasi-saints, if only one tenth of them come out to cause trouble, the situation in the ancient world will immediately become confusing.

Think about it, it was just the Six Saints, but they had already caused such chaos in the prehistoric world.

What kind of scene will it be like now that there are thousands of quasi-saints?

After thinking for a long time, Laozi slowly said: “How you act is actually not important.

Now you only need to do two things.

First, your level of Taoism has reached the middle stage of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

I am a Taoist priest. Your current magical powers have reached the requirements for attaining the state of Hun Yuan.

Therefore, it is best for you to find an opportunity to attain enlightenment as soon as possible.

Secondly, you need to suppress the current era, and any quasi-saints who dare to cause trouble must be suppressed with an iron fist.

The only way is to make the Heavenly Court and your Taiyi’s reputation known.

Only then can the chaos come to an end.

Otherwise, after a while, some monks will become restless. “
