Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me-Chapter 138: Cleaning up the Buddhist Door
Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Cleaning up the Buddhist Door
There are countless tortures in Buddha Hell, not everyone can withstand them.
Not long after those demons were imprisoned in Buddha Hell, a considerable number of them could not bear this kind of torment and chose self-destruction.
However, the laws of Buddha Hell are complete; can there be any loopholes? To escape by death and seek liberation, that is impossible.
I saw in Buddha Hell, the laws turning, transforming into an unknown power descending, pouring into the bodies of those dead demons, reshaping them slowly.
Soon, these corpses stood up dully and followed the rules of Buddha Hell, capturing demons and arresting monks to maintain the normal operation of Buddha Hell.
Under the influence of the rules of Buddha Hell, the bodies of those dead demons became puppets for Buddha Hell, becoming tools to deal with them.
And their souls did not find liberation either. They were dragged by the Buddhist chains, drifting in the layers of Buddha Hell, suffering torments without end.
...
........
The power of Buddha Hell is growing stronger while also affecting those in the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell.
I saw in Buddha Hell, streams of peculiar power overflowing, following the invisible connections, blessing the bodies of the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell, gradually healing their bodies and strengthening their power.
At a certain moment, when the injuries on the bodies of the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell were fully healed, Jiang Chen suddenly opened his eyes and said majestically:
"Go, go to this Xiniuhe Continent, practice the justice of Buddha, spread the prestige of the Heavenly Dragon Temple."
"Let the monks of the Buddhist door understand the strictness of the rules of the Buddhist door, holy and inviolable."
Jiang Chen’s voice was soft, but when he spoke, it resonated with the fate of the Buddhist door, making his voice incredibly grand.
Like a heavenly sound, it rang in every living being’s ears.
For a moment, blessed by the fate of the Buddhist door, Jiang Chen’s voice spread throughout the entire Xiniuhe Continent, allowing people from all walks of life to hear it.
Upon hearing this voice, people initially had no reaction, but all the monks of the Buddhist door changed their expressions dramatically.
Because from Jiang Chen’s voice, they saw the future of the Buddhist door.
It was a picture filled with blood and fire, countless monks bleeding, countless monks falling into demonic ways, and even images of Buddha entering nirvana.
The future of the Buddhist door would undergo an unprecedented change because of the owner of this voice.
The peaceful Buddhist door will ignite a war because of this, countless monks, bodhisattvas, Buddhas will get involved in it, continuing for endless years, only ending upon reaching the other shore.
A Bodhisattva was shocked and thought there was a great demon causing harm to the Buddhist door, so he went to the Spiritual Mountain to ask Buddha to slay the demon.
And on the Spiritual Mountain, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas who knew the truth fell into silence.
...
........
What the Buddhas of the Spiritual Mountain thought, Jiang Chen did not know, and did not intend to know. Now, he only wished to fulfill his duty as the Great Virtue King Buddha, to reorganize the Buddhist door and defend the precepts.
At Jiang Chen’s command, the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell immediately rose, stepped forward and said:
"In obedience to the decree of Buddha!"
After speaking, the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell left the Heavenly Dragon Temple in unison to arrest the guilty monks.
Needless to say, the journey of the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell was definitely not smooth; they were bound to see blood.
The disciples of the Buddhist door have been rampant on this land, usually judging others’ crimes. When did it become others’ turn to judge them?
When the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell go to arrest people, regardless of right or wrong, guilty or not, the monks will choose to resist, they will not surrender easily.
But one hundred and ninety-two Golden Immortals, how great a power they have, even ordinary Bodhisattvas who encounter them would perish instantly, let alone ordinary disciples of the Buddhist door.
Therefore, those Buddhist door disciples are definitely not the opponents of the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell. But once the war begins, the influence it brings is tremendous.
Being a disciple of a Buddhist door, who doesn’t have elder relatives or friends? It’s easy to move one person, but after that, wouldn’t his relative or friend come to seek justice?
If you provoke the young ones, the older ones and the elder ones are attracted, a large group of people gather, then it becomes a big issue.
Moving one hair disturbs the whole body, just like this.
But now, Jiang Chen could not consider so much, regardless of how big a trouble he may stir up, he had to make a move.
The Heavenly Dragon Temple, as a newly established power, if it cannot demonstrate its might in one battle, with the name of its precept temple, it will be difficult to move an inch in Xiniuhe Continent in the future.
Thus, this battle not only needs to be fought by Jiang Chen, but it also has to demonstrate the prestige of the Heavenly Dragon Temple, making the disciples of the Buddhist door feel fear from the depths of their hearts upon hearing the three words, the Heavenly Dragon Temple.
Only when they revere the precepts will there be people observing the precepts, and dare not violate them.
...
When the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell set out together, their power was naturally extraordinary. Against those disciples of the Buddhist door, they can easily suppress, even unable to resist.
Therefore, soon enough, hundreds of the disciples of the Buddhist door were captured and put into Buddha Hell. The power of Buddha Hell surged because of this.
Hundreds of disciples of the Buddhist door, not many nor few, with their combined forces behind them, it was quite a scale.
Therefore, one Arhat was alarmed and came out personally, intending to persuade the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell to stop.
An Arhat, also known as a Golden Arhat, has a position in the Buddhist door equivalent to that of a celestial general in Heaven Court, with varying strengths and weaknesses.
The strong ones can be compared to ordinary Bodhisattvas, possessing the cultivation of Taiyi Golden Immortal, just like the two Arhats of Subduing-Dragon-and-Tiger. The weak ones are only like celestial beings, guarding doors, keeping fields, carrying out simple tasks.
However, the Arhat who took action this time was not the strongest, but neither was he weak, possessing the cultivation of a Golden Immortal.
He thought that, if he stepped in, the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell would give him face and release the arrested disciples of the Buddhist door.
But he was mistaken. He thought too highly of himself and too little of the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell. Not to mention that he was only an Arhat, even if a Buddha came, the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell wouldn’t give him any face.
They were personally forged by the Jieyin Saint. From the moment they were created, they were infused with the belief of absolute loyalty to the precepts of the Buddhist door.
They would not commit any act that violates the precepts of the Buddhist door, they would dare to arrest anyone who violates the precepts, without fear of life and death.
Even if a Buddha was in front of them, they would dare to step forward.
No, not right. Even if a Buddha violated the precepts, the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell would dare to make a move to capture him.
As long as they violated the precepts of the Buddhist door, there was no one they would not dare to arrest.
This is the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell!
They don’t have righteousness in their hearts, nor do they know about righteousness. They only know about the precepts of the Buddhist door.
They might not be the executors of justice, but they are absolutely relentless law enforcers.
Because they do not have feelings.
...
That Arhat was also ridiculous, his own ass wasn’t clean either, yet he dared to rely on his cultivation to get people from the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell.
But the result indeed...
That Arhat came to the Eight Divisions of Buddha Hell with a smile, but before he could speak, he was grabbed by them and dragged into Buddha Hell.
