Lord of the People: I recruited the goddess of heaven

On top of Lingshan Mountain.

Three wheels of Buddha's light hang high above the mountain, illuminating the earth. They are Sakyamuni Tathagata, Vairocana Tathagata, and Acala Tathagata.

The eight Bodhisattvas, namely, Guanyin, Manjusri, Samantabhadra, Ksitigarbha, Mahasthamaprapta, Wei Tuo, Lingji and Pili, are located below.

After that, there are hundreds of powerful Arhat Lords such as Jianglong, Fuhu, Tota, Budai, Changmei, etc., and even many of them are the ultimate lords, Vajra Arhats.

Although the entire Leiyin Temple is only a few hundred kilometers in radius, small worlds are looming under the seats of these Bodhisattvas and Arhats, with countless Buddhist soldiers ready to go.

The Ancient Buddha Clan has always pursued a policy of recruiting elite soldiers. Only those who are either geniuses or strong people who represent a certain faction, such as Sun Wukong, Jiang Chen, and Long Nu, will be specially recruited. Even top Bodhisattvas such as Guanyin and Samantabhadra who have dedicated their entire lives to the Posuo Buddha Realm rarely receive merit infusion.

Therefore, there are only a dozen or so "Buddhas" in the Posa Buddha Realm. The fact that three of them appear at once shows how much importance they place on Jiang Chen.

Of course, every Buddha has boundless magical powers. Their power is even greater than that of the twelve-winged angels of the same level.

"Jiang Chen and the Dragon Girl have entered Tongtian River and are about to arrive at Lingshan. Please perform your duties and do not damage the majesty of our Buddha."

Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara spoke on behalf of Sakyamuni.

Hundreds of Bodhisattvas and Arhats below made loud noises at the same time.

"Yes!"

A male Bodhisattva with a dignified face and holding a vajra whispered:

"May I ask the Bodhisattva Guanyin, Jiang Chen spent 12 years to complete the journey to obtain the scriptures, which is even better than the original Fighting Buddha. I wonder if he has already subdued his heart and converted to Buddhism?"

As the head of the Lingshan Security Department, Bodhisattva Weituo is only at the department manager level. There is a big gap in his status compared to Guanyin, the general assistant, so his attitude is very respectful.

Everyone in Lingshan has his own duties. Bodhisattva Weituo did not participate in the Journey to the West plan, so he asked this question because he wanted to be adequately prepared.

Hearing Wei Tuo's question, many Arhats also listened attentively.

Although the Journey to the West plan involved adding two more Buddhas to Lingshan Mountain and was a secret, it was about to be completed, so Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva did not hide it any more.

"Jiang Chen, the Lord of the Divine Realm, should now be called Wu Shi. Although Wu Shi is naughty, he finally had an epiphany after the disaster in the Kingdom of Daughters. He now recites sutras and worships Buddha every day. He not only has a deep understanding of Buddhist classics such as the Heart Sutra, the Mahavairocana Sutra, the Avatamsaka Sutra, and the Diamond Sutra, but has also become a true believer of Sakyamuni Tathagata, Mahavairocana Tathagata, and Immovable Tathagata. His faith in our Buddha Sakyamuni is particularly strong, and he is about to break through the level of a fanatic."

At this point, Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara looked at Manjusri Bodhisattva, Venerable Jinshou and others:

"Wu Shi has many hidden cards, and he is even more stubborn and difficult to tame than the Dou Sheng Buddha back then. You all have made great contributions to subdue him."

Manjusri Bodhisattva and others returned the favor and complimented him, saying, "It is all thanks to the Bodhisattva for coordinating the overall situation."

"Good, good, good!"

The Great Sun Tathagata, the leader of the Three Holy Ones of Huayan, suddenly spoke:

"Matter determines consciousness! After Jiang Chen receives the infusion of merit and virtue, he will be influenced by the energy of Buddhism and will immediately become a fanatical follower of the Lord of the Sakya Domain. If he takes this opportunity to complete the transformation of his clan, our Posha Buddha Domain will immediately be filled with another powerful guardian Buddha. This is truly cause for celebration."

As the ancestor of the power of faith, Lingshan has brought the "reuse technology of believers" to the extreme. Many temples on earth enshrine multiple ancient Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats.

It is normal for an ordinary ancient Buddhist lord to believe in hundreds of Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats at the same time, and it is even common for some Arhats to be true believers of each other.

The monks recite scriptures every day, and what they read are the biographies of gods.

The Avatamsaka Sutra, also known as the Mahavairocana Sutra, is the divine biography of Mahavairocana Tathagata. Even as one of the big guys in Lingshan, Mahavairocana Tathagata cannot ignore a true believer like Jiang Chen.

After all, the power of the divine realm should not be underestimated.

When Sakyamuni heard Mahavairocana speak, he could no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb:

"Congratulations, Tianyin disciples are born with the ability to master the true fire of the sun, and can be a great help to the Great Sun Tathagata."

This is also one of the reasons why Vairocana Tathagata is so concerned about this matter.

As a Three-legged Golden Crow who has attained Buddhahood, if he could obtain the powerful army of the Holy Maiden Tianyin who is born with the power to master the true fire of the sun, both his power and his personal strength would experience explosive growth.

In charge of Lingshan's security work, Wei Tuo's immediate superior, Immovable Tathagata, suddenly said, "The goddess warriors can protect Lingshan!"

Manjusri Bodhisattva said quickly: "The Bodhi tree in my territory is already mature. If it is grafted with the Enlightenment Tea Tree and provided with nutrients by the Enlightenment Tea Tree, it will surely be able to cultivate stronger Bodhi seeds. I hope that the Buddha will help me."

Before Jiang Chen showed up, several Tathagatas and Bodhisattvas had already started to divide the spoils impatiently, regarding Jiang Chen and even the resources of the Divine Realm as theirs for sure.

Soon, a stream of light appeared in the sky and arrived at the foot of Lingshan Mountain in the blink of an eye.

Seeing that the Sky City showed no sign of stopping and was heading straight for the Great Leiyin Temple on the top of the mountain, Guanyin Bodhisattva frowned slightly and shouted, "Dragon Girl, Wu Shi, you must not be disrespectful in front of the Buddha! Why don't you get off the boat immediately, bow three times and kowtow nine times, and then walk up the mountain?"

"Great Master, what you said is wrong!" Jiang Chen's voice came, "Pray to Buddha in the heart, not in action. As long as there is Buddha in the heart, why bother with formalities? Besides, the great cause of obtaining the scriptures has not yet been accomplished. A journey of a hundred miles is only halfway through. My master and I dare not slack off in the slightest."

It was naturally impossible for Jiang Chen to leave the Sky City, the last barrier.

"No problem!" Before Guanyin could say anything else, Sakyamuni Tathagata's grand voice came, resounding throughout the entire Lingshan Mountain, "Let him come up."

“The reverb effect is really good.”

Jiang Chen complained in his heart, as a way of relieving his stress. The Sky City also accelerated again, and in less than a minute, it reached the top of the mountain and hovered in the center of the vast hall of the Great Leiyin Temple.

"Wu Shi pays homage to the Buddha."

Jiang Chen's clone, wearing a tight headband, appeared on the deck of the Sky City, standing side by side with the Dragon Girl, and bowed respectfully to Sakyamuni:

"Wu Shi has fulfilled his mission, slaying demons and spreading Buddhism along the way. He has now escorted Master Long Nu to Lingshan, hoping that the Buddha will grant him the Dharma."

"good!"

Shakyamuni spoke again, and his speech was rare and long.

“True strength lies not in attributes but in the peace of mind.”

"The Dragon Girl comprehended the essence of the Lotus Sutra at the age of eight. Her wisdom was sharp and her mind was filled with Bodhi. This time she went through eighty-one difficulties and completed her practice. She will obtain the true sutra."

"Wu Shi has slayed demons and monsters along the way, and has done immeasurable good deeds. From being the master of the divine realm, he has now attained great enlightenment. From being unruly, he has now become as calm as water, and he has obtained the true scriptures."

What surprised Jiang Chen was that Sakyamuni did not drag his feet at all.

After a brief commendation, dozens of golden scriptures were actually bestowed directly and landed steadily in the hands of the Dragon Girl.

At the same time, the Heavenly Dao reminder sounded.

【Hint: You have completed the Journey to the West mission.】

[Contribution calculation, you have obtained a total of 2313 million merits. ]

boom--

The earth and the sky trembled, and the sky within a radius of tens of thousands of miles was instantly dyed golden. The power of merit was as deep as the ocean.

But Jiang Chen's real body, who was hiding in the deep space, knew that if what Monkey Brother said was true, the next thing would be the most dangerous.
