Chapter 413: The plan to destroy Buddhism was formulated by Canary

Unable to turn back? Is it that they are unwilling to turn back? Or is it that they dare not turn back?

Su Nian harbors significant doubts about this.

He does not believe that the Buddha, Sakyamuni, who wields 【Causality】 and is already approaching transcendence, is incapable of giving them a chance to turn back.

But turning back means losing everything they currently have; whether it is status, power, or influence, it would all vanish completely.

To be honest, Su Nian feels the Great Monk's temper is actually quite good, not to mention that Puxian is his direct disciple.

If they really wanted to turn back, the Great Monk would certainly give them a chance.

But at the same time, that does not mean they would not suffer the punishment they deserve.

The Great Monk is not kind-hearted to that extent.

After a while, once Puxian's emotions had calmed down, he asked Su Nian with deep confusion.

"Why are you doing this?"

After all, given Su Nian's current situation and background, it would not be difficult for him to gain the support of the entire Buddhism.

Even with the premise that the World-Honored One will inevitably leave, as the Last King, he might well have had the chance to sit in that supreme position.

Puxian cannot understand Su Nian's way of thinking.

"You ask me why?"

Su Nian picked up his wine cup, took a light sip, and said with a calm gaze.

"Perhaps it's just that I can't stand it; this Little Garden shouldn't be like this."

"A paradise should look like a paradise."

"That is all."

Puxian opened his mouth; he really wanted to ask Su Nian if he was going to drag down the entire Buddhism just for this.

Of course, Su Nian's reasons for targeting Buddhism are not just this; not being able to stand it is one aspect.

The other aspect is for the sake of Algol's path; anyway, Shakyamuni will leave sooner or later, so what is wrong with having a Demon Fall before he leaves to help Algol out?

Corrupting the entire Buddhism, and even the Buddha, is merely to let Algol become a true demon.

Then there is Shiroyasha; don't look at how Shiroyasha doesn't say anything, but in reality, when these materials were sent over, she was the one most displeased.

She treats Little Garden as her own home, and now that her home has been turned into this state by Buddhism, how could she tolerate it?

Naturally, Su Nian must clear out the maggots for her.

Puxian pursed his lips, which seemed a bit chapped.

He was silent for a moment, then finally sighed deeply and said.

"You are right, a paradise should indeed look like a paradise."

Hearing this, Su Nian did not speak; after all, this is the most simple truth.

He reached out toward Puxian, signaling him to drink the wine he had just poured.

"Please, how about you do me a favor?"

"The favor of the Last King Buddha, this Little Monk must certainly grant."

Puxian put his hands together, just about to chant 'Amitabha', but he hesitated and gave up.

He knows very well that he is the least qualified to chant that phrase.

He picked up the wine cup and took a light sip.

Su Nian glanced at Puxian and said indifferently.

"Calculating the time, Canary should have already started her investigation; of course, as the price for you intercepting the former Arcadia members from my hands."

"Your Puxian Sect will be the first to be investigated."

Puxian sipped his wine quietly; he did not say anything more.

Those with different paths do not conspire together.

The paths he and Su Nian walk are inherently diametrically opposed, and furthermore, to some extent, he is now blocking Su Nian's way.

Between him and Su Nian, or rather between the entire Buddhism and Su Nian, there is almost no possibility of reconciliation.

"By the way, I wonder if the seal of the Three-Headed Dragon is still secure?"

Just then, Su Nian asked abruptly.

It was a topic that seemed to have nothing to do with the previous conversation, but it made the hand Puxian was holding the wine cup with tremble.

The Monkey Wine in the cup spilled onto his hand, and he did not even react.

"Haha, Benefactor Su, what a scheme."

Puxian said through gritted teeth.

No one knows the current situation of Buddhism better than he does.

The current Buddhism seems to be as high and mighty as before, golden and magnificent, suppressing all God Groups in Little Garden, the strongest God Group among all Communities.

In terms of God Group power and influence in Little Garden, even the Cross Religion at its peak could not compare to the current Buddhism in the slightest.

After the Chinese Mythology left, whether it was the Takamagahara God Group, the Indian Pantheon, or other miscellaneous God Groups, they have either perished or been annexed by Buddhism.

The current Buddhism is already a massive behemoth in Little Garden, the largest God Group.

But just as he said, no one knows the current Buddhism better than he does.

The current Buddhism has long since fallen into a state of 'cooking oil on a raging fire', as precarious as a pile of eggs.

Algol's actions and the Demon Fall of those in Buddhism naturally could not be hidden from him.

If he were not one of the top experts in Buddhism, he might have fallen victim to it as well.

Algol's Dao Heart Demon Seed, which tempts one toward Demon Fall, forces them to need Merit and resources to forge a Golden Body to cover up the changes in their Spirit Status and maintain their Spirit Status as Gods and Buddhas.

And the anti-corruption campaign in the Heavenly Army initiated by Su Nian has completely cut off their path to obtaining Merit and resources by serving in the Heavenly Army.

With one rising and the other falling, it is only a matter of time before their Demon Fall is completely exposed.

Once Demon Fall is exposed, Puxian can already imagine a day when the World-Honored One holds a dharma assembly as usual.

Suddenly, the scene of the gods and Buddhas across the sky, lacking the Merit to conceal the changes in their Spirit Status, abruptly falling into Demon Fall and becoming Mara.

Spirit Mountain would become the greatest demon lair in this world.

And for this scene to truly appear on Spirit Mountain, the countless great beings of Buddhism would naturally seek remedies and ways to obtain Merit.

In Little Garden, there is one method that would absolutely allow Buddhism to obtain sufficient Merit, and that is to overcome Humanity's Final Trial: Absolute Evil.

The current Absolute Evil has long since lost the Simulated Star Creation Map, and not long ago, it was beaten into a heavy injury by Su Nian and remains sealed.

Next, one only needs a hero holding a Holy Sword capable of killing the evil dragon to overcome Humanity's Final Trial and obtain unimaginable Merit.

And the most critical Holy Sword for killing the evil dragon—the Perpetual Motion Machine Spirit Rank—is on the Su Nian before him.

Now everything is ready; all that is missing is a suitable hero and the means to force Su Nian to hand over the Perpetual Motion Machine Spirit Rank.

But doing so would only mean falling completely into the layers of nets laid by Su Nian, pushing Buddhism completely into the abyss.

In a trance, he seemed to see the scene of the three-headed dragon wreaking havoc on Spirit Mountain and his own head being smashed by the enraged Buddha with a vajra.

But that was only a momentary lapse; in reality, Su Nian was just sipping wine in a leisurely manner, watching him with a smile.

At this instant, Puxian pursed his dry lips; his lips were not actually dry, but he thought they were.

"What exactly do you want in order to let Buddhism go?"

He had originally thought that what Su Nian spoke of was in the distant future; after all, as a God and Buddha, he still had a very, very long time, and in the long passage of time, anything is possible.

He did not expect that Su Nian inviting him to meet was to sound the death knell for Buddhism.

This was too fast, fast to the point that he could not comprehend; clearly, Su Nian had only been in Little Garden for less than half a year, and he had only risen to prominence a few months ago.

It was as if he had taken a short nap, only to find someone else's blade at his throat.

The contradiction in the perception of time between the God and Buddha who had experienced an unimaginably long life and the young man Su Nian who had only lived for twenty-some years was displayed vividly.

Su Nian let out a puff of laughter, as if Puxian had said some interesting joke.

However, Puxian dared not laugh; his gaze remained fixed on Su Nian, staring at his face, attempting to obtain the answer he hoped for from Su Nian's face.

Even though he knew clearly that Su Nian would not give him the answer.

Under his gaze, Su Nian smiled lightly and said calmly.

"You shouldn't ask me this question; you should ask the one sitting on Spirit Mountain."

Boom!

Thunder rolled outside the window, and dark clouds obscured the sun, yet there was not the slightest sign of rain.

Puxian's heart sank just like the sky outside.

"Amitabha."

He recited a Buddhist name softly and pressed his palms together.

"This Little Monk has been taught."

The one who most expects the current Buddhism to die is not Su Nian, but the World-Honored One.

No, it shouldn't be death.

More accurately, from the very moment this Buddhism was established, this Buddhism was already dead.

The current Buddhism is nothing more than a rotting corpse.

Thinking of this, Puxian put down his wine cup, stood up, and turned to leave.

"Leaving just like that?"

Su Nian toyed with the cup and asked with a smile.

Puxian's footsteps paused, and then he said with a relaxed expression.

"Staying here is useless, isn't it?"

"Then is going back useful?"

Su Nian laughed and gestured remotely toward Puxian's back.

"I hope you can save the dying Buddhism."

Hearing this, Puxian's figure paused, and he shook his head with a bitter smile.

"To kill and then condemn the heart; as expected, you are much worse than Indra."

Did he really think he didn't know by now who was pushing the current situation of Buddhism?

Su Nian: Who else could it be? Of course, it is our great Little Garden's number one wise person, Canary.

The plan to destroy Buddhism was formulated by Canary.

Afterwards, Puxian sighed and pushed the door open to leave.

Su Nian watched Puxian leave; after he was gone, Su Nian stretched and said with a relaxed expression.

"Mm, assessment complete: there isn't a single good thing in Buddhism."

"Now that I'm going at it, I don't have any psychological pressure at all; good thing I was worried about whether I might cause collateral damage."

Speaking of this, Su Nian shook his head with a smile and said.

"Come to think of it, I just have too high a moral standard; I even notify others before causing trouble and check if there will be collateral damage."

"Tsk tsk tsk, this bad habit must be changed."

——

Spirit Mountain, Mahavira Hall.

Shakyamuni, having witnessed everything, closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.

It is unknown whether he was sighing for the future of Buddhism or for his own disciple.

Truly, would they rather continue to be wrong than admit a mistake?

When it was clearly something that could be solved by admitting a mistake, why did it evolve to this extent?

Since you have already realized the direction is wrong, just come back and walk again; why must you insist on crashing into the south wall?
