Glory of the Sun God (Marvel Sun God)
Chapter 1473: Buddhist Thoughts on Conferring Gods
"Follow His Majesty's will."
Reading out the legal edict is an important part of the process of conferring gods.The formation of a priesthood is not just a matter of canonization by the Emperor of Heaven. If you have the ability, you can form your own priesthood.Just like those gods in Buddhism and Taoism.
Of course, there are risks in doing this, and the risks are not small.Because if you do this, it is tantamount to being under the rule of the central court and just occupying a hilltop and proclaiming yourself the king.This is not only a provocation to the supreme ruler, but also a challenge to the entire collective power.Any strict ruling class will never allow such a thing to happen.
That is to say, the heaven ruled by the Jade Emperor is too weak and weak, and is almost hijacked by Taoism and Buddhism, which is why they have so many protectors in private.But even if the Jade Emperor is so incompetent, the canonization of those important gods still has to go through the formal channels from heaven and through his hands.
This is a difference between justice and official certification.Without the edict of heaven, even if you become a god, you are just a wild god Mao Shen worshiped by a party.Everyone gets it and kills it, and sooner or later he will be beaten to death.Therefore, no one with any sense of consciousness would be willing to do this. Most of them would pursue an edict from heaven and seek for themselves the identity of a righteous god in heaven.
It can be said that it is precisely because of this formal requirement.Reading out the divine edict has become a very important step.
Because this not only means that you have been canonized as a god, but more importantly, you have been recognized by the Emperor of Heaven and have obtained the qualifications recognized by the Heavenly Court.The relationship with the gods in heaven has changed from a potentially hostile relationship to a colleague relationship. The difference is of course different.
In the past, Taibaijinxing was mostly the one who read out such edicts to confer gods, but now, it is definitely impossible for Taibaijinxing to serve Zhou Yi.So this burden fell on Zhang Daoling.As the leader of a religious sect, Zhang Daoling happened to be one of the few people in Heaven who knew ancient divine texts.Therefore, he would not cause any trouble and even fail to complete the tasks assigned by the Emperor of Heaven.
And when he unfolded the Divine Edict and saw the divine inscriptions on it, he was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly said with a smile on his face.
"According to the edict of the Supreme Heavenly Emperor, today Zhao Huixian is the Holy and Benevolent King, Erlang True Lord Yang Jian. He is unparalleled in loyalty, valor and steadfastness. I am specially appointed as the Zhenwu Dangmo Great Emperor. He is in charge of the northern stars. Official affairs include subduing demons, subduing demons, suppressing evil in society, and all other official affairs of heaven. Conferring thrones on Mount Sumeru, Buddhist sects in the West, Bodhisattva Arhats, all should obey his orders. And he is so noble."
There are no problems in the front of this edict, but the part after that, where he is granted the title of Mount Sumeru and takes charge of the Western Heaven Buddhism and the Bodhisattva Arhat, is really surprising.Even Zhang Daoling never thought that Zhou Yi, the Emperor of Heaven, would actually trick Buddhism in the end. Unfortunately, he thought Zhou Yi had planned to let Buddhism go.
Of course, as the leader of the Taoist sect, Zhang Daoling did not object to Zhou Yi's approach.He even said that not only would he not object, he would even be happy to see it happen.
Buddhism and Taoism are extremely dirty, and they have already forged many grudges over the years.Although Buddhism is now in decline, even the Buddha has died.But this does not mean that Daomen will sympathize with him and let him go out of pity.
The dispute over orthodoxy has always been bloody.In the current scene, they will not have any sympathy at all. Instead, they will try every means to add insult to injury, so as to completely suppress Buddhism to the point of destruction.
Buddhism itself knows this.Therefore, when the edict was recited, many people had not had time to react. Guanyin was already the first to bow his head and respond to Zhou Yi.
"Buddhism is willing to obey His Majesty's will."
At this moment, Guanyin Bodhisattva is still kneeling in the temple, as if she is still begging Zhou Yi to let Buddhism go.On the surface, it seemed that Zhou Yi didn't give her any reply.But she knew in her heart that when Zhou Yi granted Mount Sumeru to Yang Jian and asked him to command the Bodhisattvas and Arhats of Buddhism, it actually meant that he planned to let Buddhism go.Although there are some elements of humiliation and ridicule mixed in, but compared with surviving, mere humiliation is nothing.
Now is not the time to dwell on these humiliations.Once you care about this and start to resist because of this, Buddhism, which is already in a desperate situation, will immediately spiral down and fall into the abyss of eternal destruction.Not to mention that doing so would offend a terrifying figure like the Emperor of Heaven, even the successive suppression and persecution from the Taoist sect would be enough to cause a devastating blow to the Buddhist sect.
At this time, Buddhism could no longer bear any blow.So instead of doing this kind of thing that seeks death, it is better to take a step back and accept the arrangement of the Emperor of Heaven.At the very least, by doing this, you can get the protection of the Emperor of Heaven, which can offset the suppression of the Taoist sect to a certain extent.

It can be said that in the blink of an eye, Guanshiyin clearly calculated all the stakes.And she immediately chose the option that was most beneficial to her and Buddhism as a whole.Of course, her choice cannot be supported by everyone.It is conceivable that there must be many people in Buddhism who are opposed to her approach.But at this time, she could no longer take into account the objections of these people.
She is the first of the four great Bodhisattvas in Buddhism and the most powerful person in the entire Buddhism besides Tathagata Buddha.From this point alone, she has the qualifications to command Buddhism and make decisions for Buddhism at this moment.In her own opinion, she is now the master of Buddhism.Even if some people are dissatisfied with her and unwilling to admit her identity.There is absolutely no way she can change this, that is, Buddhist Zhengshuo is now in her hands.
She and her supporters are the key to the survival of Buddhism. As long as they exist, Buddhism will have hope and a future.Under such a premise, if some people continue to be stubborn, they are still unwilling to admit the facts and admit that Buddhism is no longer what it used to be.Then she doesn't mind doing some things like abandoning the car to save the handsome man, or cutting off the wrist of a strong man.
People who cannot see reality clearly are not qualified to survive in today's Buddhism.Having lost Tathagata Buddha, we have lost the Western Paradise.Buddhism is almost equivalent to losing its biggest trump card.They no longer have the ability to support those losers who only know how to chant sutras and talk about Buddha, but have no actual value at all.
If Buddhism wants to survive, it must get rid of unnecessary burdens and burdens.The so-called era of putting down the butcher's knife and becoming a Buddha immediately, and reciting Amitabha to go to the Paradise of Paradise has passed.Buddhism needs to be streamlined and Buddhism needs real talents.And these people who cannot see the reality clearly, these people who only know how to talk big words without any contribution, are the ones who will be eliminated.
Guanyin's decisiveness exceeded Zhang Daoling's expectations.He originally thought that these Buddhist disciples would choose to resist, which would give him some excuse to suppress Buddhism.However, things were not at all what he thought.Guanshiyin chose to obey in the fastest way, and this kind of obedience also made all his assumptions fall into place.This really made him a little regretful.
But although it was regrettable, Zhang Daoling didn't take it too seriously.Because at this time, there were already more important things that needed his attention.
The Zhenwu Dangmo Emperor, this is the highest position that ordinary people can achieve among the Zhoutian Zhengshen according to the Taoist sect.He is the most powerful protector of the Taoist sect, the highest-level god that the entire Taoist sect can place in heaven.
Don't talk about the Three Pure Ones and Four Imperial Guards. The Three Pure Pure Ones and Four Imperial Guards are simply not something that ordinary people can handle.Rather than saying that the Three Pure Ones and Four Imperial Guards are the forces of the Taoist sect, it is better to say that the Three Pure Pure Ones and Four Imperial Guards are the special products of the Taoist sect’s entanglement with Heaven during its development process.
This can be seen by looking at the identities of the Three Pure Ones and Four Imperial Guards.The existence of two concepts, an ancestor-level thinker.The rest are almost all human emperors from ancient times.Whether there is a Taoist door or not, they are all there and no one can get around them.So rather than saying that Taoism has made them successful, it is better to say that they have made Taoism a reality.
That is to say, by relying on these ancient powers, the Taoist sect can re-establish today's heaven after the collapse of the ancient heaven.Without them, Dao Sect would not be as prosperous as it is today.Therefore, Taoism is powerless against the Three Pure Ones and Four Imperial Guards.Apart from offering them up for worship, they had no other way to deal with them.
And it is precisely because of this that the Zhenwu Dangmo Emperor has become the highest god that the Taoist sect can use.So if possible, Zhang Daoling really doesn't want to take out this priesthood.
The Taoist sect has always regarded this priesthood as a forbidden one.In order to win over those immortals from the ancient times, they even offered the position of Emperor Shenxiao Jiuchen, but they still held Emperor Zhenwudangmo in their hands, and they would not easily grant it to someone else even if the clone of Laojun took over.What is the purpose? Is it because one day, a brilliant person will emerge from the Taoist sect, so that he can win this position in one fell swoop?
This is for your own people, not for outsiders.The saying goes that fat water should not flow to outsiders, but meat should rot in the stew pot. This is the truth.If it weren't for Zhou Yi, the Emperor of Heaven, who was forcing him step by step, and Yang Jian's somewhat special status.Zhang Daoling really couldn't bear to do this.
However, after doing everything, he could only admit it.Now he only hopes that Yang Jian can accept his love so that he can help them more in the future.This would not be in vain for him to promise this divine position.Of course, there is also a prerequisite for this, that Yang Jian can successfully become the Zhenwu Dangmo Emperor.In Zhang Daoling's view, this is not a big problem.
After reading the imperial edict, the so-called divine edict turned into a stream of light and penetrated directly into Yang Jian's body.At this time, Yang Jian suddenly had a strange vision and seemed different from before.
