After a long while, Shakyamuni finally recovered from the shock of his three views. Only then did his facial expression become slightly better.
It was hard to imagine that the person who was respectfully called the Holy Monk in the West was now in such a sorry state. Anyone who saw him would find it hard to believe.
Then, Shakyamuni and Daoist Zhun Ti used spells to walk around the Western Sect.
They had originally thought that they could rely on the few remaining followers of the Western Sect or the Western Sect's temple to revive. However, they were shocked to find that in just a few weeks, the followers' faith had been greatly shaken. The followers who had vowed to follow Shakyamuni and Taoist Cundi to the end had now changed their direction and joined the Divine Dragon Sect.
Under the propaganda of the Divine Dragon Sect, the Western Sect had been completely classified as a cult. No one could use the sect to absorb a trace of merit, faith, and incense from the East!
Shakyamuni and Taoist Cundi had been searching for several days but had not found any breakthrough. They had originally thought that after leaving the Western Sect, they could make a comeback. However, they did not expect that it would be so difficult.
"What are we doing now?" Taoist Cundi's eyes were filled with despair.
Shakyamuni did not speak. He did not expect that the Long Sheng Ao Qing's method of suppression would be so powerful that the Western Sect did not even have the slightest chance of revival. It had only been a few days and it was already like this. If this went on for a long time, the Long Sheng Ao Qing would not have the chance to spread the teachings of the Western Sect to the East. However, if they stayed here now, they would be discovered by the Long Sheng Ao Qing sooner or later …
"What, what … what should we do?"
For the first time in his life, Shakyamuni felt despair. It was an unprecedented despair that he had felt from the Long Sheng Ao Qing!
"It seems that the only thing we can do now is to return to the real West and rebuild the Western Sect. From there, we can deduce the Sand Gate, establish Buddhism, and make a comeback!" Shakyamuni took a deep breath, feeling very unwilling.
After Shakyamuni said this, Daoist Cundi sighed helplessly and nodded heavily, agreeing to Shakyamuni's suggestion.
Whether it was Laozi going west to Han Pass, transforming his beard into a Buddha, or making the Western Religious Sect the state religion, they had done all they could. Unfortunately, their opponent, Long Sheng Ao Qing, was so strong that they didn't even have the chance to greet him.
They were no match for Long Sheng Ao Qing, not only in terms of strength, intelligence, and strategy.
That Long Sheng Ao Qing was like an evil Daoist priest who could foresee the future, always able to walk in front of them.
"Where are Ju Liusun and the others?" Suddenly, Taoist Cundi asked.
Shakyamuni didn't say anything. Even if Daoist Ci Hang and Heavenly Lord Manjushri Guangfa were still alive, they probably wouldn't choose to join the Western Sect.
The current Western Sect was already extremely miserable. Presumably, Taishang Laojun, the Duobao Taoist, and the others would not participate in it.
The Western Sect could be said to have lost soldiers and generals. Who would join them?
Just as they were talking, a vigorous and clear voice slowly sounded, "If hell is not empty, I swear not to become a Buddha!"
The excited voice suddenly reverberated in the ears of Shakyamuni and Daoist Cundi. Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva slowly appeared.
Seeing Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, Daoist Cundi's eyes lit up, but immediately dimmed.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was one of the chess pieces that the Western Sect had planted in hell. They were prepared to control the entire Underworld. They had originally planned to make Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva after the Investiture of the Gods, so that they could truly control the entire Underworld.
However, they didn't expect that the plan couldn't keep up with the changes …
"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva already knows about the situation of the two Holy Sages. Don't panic, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva will always stand with you!"
When Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said this, his pair of cold eyes looked to the east. Suddenly, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's eyes lit up, "Today, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva makes a great vow here. If hell is not empty, I swear not to become a Buddha!
If I don't slaughter Long Sheng and suppress the demons, I swear not to become a Buddha! "
At that moment, a powerful aura suddenly wrapped around Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's body, causing him to shine with golden light. A Merit Magic Treasure appeared under his body, and a sacred monk's staff appeared in his hand. Immediately, this powerful aura directly soared into the sky, shaking the nine heavens.
Seeing this scene, Daoist Cundi and Shakyamuni looked at each other in surprise. They didn't expect that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva would be willing to be with the Western Sect when they were in such a miserable state. He even made a great wish.
Just this Crimson City alone was enough to move the two of them!
Especially when he said that if he didn't slaughter Long Sheng and suppress the demons, he wouldn't become a Buddha. When he said these words, the great wish was even more agitated. It was incomparably thick, showing the terrifying power of merit in it!
After a while, a huge Merit Circle began to appear behind Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. His aura also changed, and his pair of cold eyes became even colder.
At this moment, if Long Sheng Ao Qing was here, he would be surprised to find that after Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva made the great wish, his strength and realm had increased by many times. He was about to enter the Sage Realm.
In fact, over these years, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva had been cultivating in the Nether World and accumulating merit. His strength was not inferior to Goddess Houtu's, but he just didn't show it.
Now that he had made the great wish, he had completely unsealed his strength. That was why his strength had soared!
It was worth mentioning that after the Great God-Investiture Tribulation, after Mahamayuri devoured the Buddha, it was also after Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva made the great wish that he temporarily took over Shakyamuni's position as the Buddha.
For a long time, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was a hidden peerless master in Buddhism. Perhaps even Ao Qing didn't expect that this hidden peerless master would break out in advance and make the great wish!
It should be known that not everyone could make the great wish. Only those with the most stable Taoist Heart and the purest heart could make the great wish. Otherwise, they would be possessed by the devil.
In the future, Fahai was not proficient in Buddhism. He had a biased view of demons and devils. He was no match for White Lady. That was why he was possessed by the devil and became a devil with a single thought!
When Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva made the great wish, a powerful airflow suddenly swept around. The powerful force destroyed the surroundings in an instant, razing everything to the ground. At the same time, Taoist Cundi and Shakyamuni were greatly encouraged.
Even Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva wasn't afraid of Long Sheng Ao Qing and made the great wish. What did they have to be afraid of?
For a moment, Taoist Cundi and Shakyamuni also made the great wish and vowed to subdue demons and devils!
However, before they could open their mouths, a few rotten eggs were directly thrown at their faces. The leader of the Heavenly Dragon Sect's followers said fiercely, "F * ck you! An evil sect is an evil sect. You still want to make yourself look good by subduing demons and devils?
If you want incense from the people, just say it. Why do you have to put on such a show? "
In the next moment, a large crowd of people carrying hoes and machetes rushed towards the three people. They looked like they were going to overthrow the evil sect!
At this moment, a sun suddenly flew into the sky and hung in the air. The sun that was originally in the sky suddenly dimmed a lot. It even made a kneeling posture!
