Chapter 1917: Daoism: Welcoming the True Warrior Great Emperor
The Pure Land Sect, also known as the Lotus Sect.
The so-called White Lotus Religion of later generations originated from this sect.
The Pure Land Sect was founded by Master Shandao of the Tang Dynasty, taking the Three Sutras and One Treatise as its fundamental canon. It is a great sect of Fomen, with its ancestral courts at Fragrant Accumulation Monastery and East Forest Monastery.
At this moment, several hundred years had passed since the founding of the Pure Land Sect, and its incense flourished, its influence immense.
Outside East Forest Monastery.
Juechen's body was suffused with Buddhist light, illuminating several zhang in every direction, as he slowly ascended the steps.
Behind him, numerous Shaolin disciples stood in neat formation, faces devout.
As the Shaolin Abbot, Juechen was no mere martial man; when it came to building momentum, he naturally understood it well.
Along the entire way, he had used true qi to activate the Buddhist light, spreading the news of the World-Honored One's descent, and had gained many believers.
It could be said that after half a month's journey, Shaolin's faithful had increased by nearly a million.
There was no helping it — his act of putting on airs in this world was simply too well done.
That was Buddhist light!
That was the World-Honored One's divine power, capable of shattering several thousand troops with a single palm.
At this moment, Juechen was every bit the World-Honored One's spokesperson on earth, receiving generous hospitality from numerous factions.
As one of the ancestral courts of the Pure Land Sect, East Forest Monastery had naturally long since received word, knowing that Shaolin's Juechen walked the world on behalf of the World-Honored One.
At first, the monks of East Forest Monastery had still been doubtful — what ability did Shaolin have to stir up such a great commotion?
Only upon seeing the Buddhist light radiating from Juechen, solemn and sacred, did they harbor not the slightest shred of doubt in their hearts.
"We pay our respects to Master Juechen. May we ask if the Master has come bearing the World-Honored One's dharma decree?"
East Forest Monastery's Abbot Liansheng, his eyes full of expectation.
In these chaotic times, if there were no special matters, Fomen ought to seal off the mountains and preserve its strength.
But if the World-Honored One had descended and possessed great divine power, then of course there was no need.
Chaotic times were precisely the good opportunity to spread the faith.
