Chapter 2078: Debate of tongues, becoming a statue on the spot
"It is said that this 'becoming a statue on the spot' is a spell cast from across the void. No matter how far away, as long as the Buddha chants the spell for that person, that person will immediately turn into a stone statue."
Fahai was also filled with astonishment as he said.
"Although Benefactor Wu Feng did nothing wrong this time, he killed the golden carp and didn't even give the Buddha face. After Guanyin Bodhisattva returns, he must have informed the Buddha. Benefactor Wu Feng is likely in trouble this time."
Tang Seng looked at those golden lights, his eyes filled with shock as he said.
"I just want to ask, why? Why is the life of a carp raised by Rulai worth more than those thirty-two pairs of boys and girls? Master, you chant scriptures every day and tell me that Buddha is merciful. Is all of this fake?"
Sun Wukong looked at Wu Feng's appearance and then turned his head to look at Tang Seng, saying with extreme anger.
Wu Feng stood in place, never moving. He sensed that a flash of extremely bright white light had suddenly crossed his sea of spiritual sense. This white light obscured all his thinking, and in that instant, he almost forgot himself.
He knew that after the debate with Rulai just now, Rulai had not gained the upper hand in words at all, so now, Rulai was going to use the pretext of punishing him to make him turn into a stone statue at the bottom of the river.
He knew Rulai's cultivation base—Saint cultivation—and he was one of the five Saints in the five heavens of these Three Realms.
As for what realm of Saint Rulai's cultivation base had reached, Wu Feng did not know, nor did he know where Rulai ranked among those five Saints.
However, Wu Feng had seen in later generations that Rulai had once fought a battle with Tongtian Jiaozhu, and in the end, it was a draw.
Rulai became the embodiment of light, while Tongtian Jiaozhu led the Asura Path within the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
At this moment, above the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Emperor Haotian and all the immortals saw this scene at the bottom of the Tongtian River.
Haotian sat on his jade throne, stroking his beard, an expression of extreme shock in his eyes. He said, "Is that spell the Buddha about to make a move on Wu Feng?"
"I just quietly heard the dialogue between Wu Feng and the Buddha. Wu Feng not only killed his carp but also didn't leave the Buddha any face in his words. I guess the Buddha must feel very embarrassed, right?"
Shunfeng Er leaned close to the Heavenly Emperor and said.
"Is this what the Buddhists call 'abstaining from greed, anger, and ignorance'? A dignified Buddha actually using his cultivation base to punish Wu Feng because of a debate of tongues? Simply ridiculous to the extreme!"
Taibai Jinxing, as a Daoist, saw this scene and said with extreme disdain.
"This is the biggest difference between our Daoism and Buddhism. Daoism follows nature and emphasizes conforming to the laws of heaven. I see that Buddhism is also having a hard time justifying itself. A Buddha, who reforms all monks in the Three Realms, actually committed the mortal sin of anger?"
Taishang Laojun looked at Taibai Jinxing and also said. Like Taibai Jinxing, he belonged to the Daoist school.
In fact, many times, the Buddhist and Daoist schools do not get along. Although they often debate and fight, if it really comes down to it, neither is convinced by the other.
The supreme being of Buddhism is Rulai Buddha, while the supreme being of Daoism is Daozu Hongjun. Essentially, both Buddhist and Daoist teachings discuss the thinking of all living beings. So the question arises: do the Buddha and Daozu themselves not have the inferior nature of humans? ===== CHAPTER 2080 =====
