Chapter 2526
Tang Sanzang's words were already very heavy. In his urgency, he actually called all these people who believed in Daoist law vulgar people. Although there was no insult in it, it was the meaning of an insult.
By this time, the atmosphere was awkward to the extreme. Everyone was silent, looking at each other with angry eyes.
At the same time, above the Western Lingshan, the Tathagata opened his eyes slightly. He saw the scene on the spiritual sense screen, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
"Tathagata, this Jin Chanzi is indeed pious to Buddhist law. Even after debating with five Daoist priests, he still insists on the faith in his heart."
The Ancient Buddha Randeng looked at the Tathagata at this time, speaking with a smile.
"I have always valued this Jin Chanzi highly, which is why I let him reincarnate as a human to experience the mortal world."
"As for these five guys, what kind of Daoist priests are they? They are just tree demons!"
The Tathagata's mouth hooked slightly, and a look of contempt appeared in his eyes.
"I don't think so. One day when I was idle, I read through the Daoist scriptures, and I also discovered that there are common points with Buddhist law, and their worldview is also very reasonable and stands up completely."
Maitreya lay in the lotus cluster, his face full of smiles, and spoke at this time.
"Maitreya, if you believe in the Dao, you can go now."
A flash of anger appeared in the Tathagata's eyes as he looked at Maitreya and spoke.
"Hahaha, I didn't say that. I have believed in Buddhism for thousands and thousands of years; how could I go and believe in the Dao again? Can a person have two faiths in their heart?"
Maitreya laughed loudly and then spoke.
And just at this time, above the Heavenly Court, Taishang Laojun and Taibai Jinxing had already seen the scene in the Wood Immortal Hermitage.
The debate between Tang Sanzang and the five demons dressed as Daoists just now could be described as sharp-tongued.
All along, there had been a conflict of faith between the Daoist and Buddhist religions, and Taishang Laojun and Taibai Jinxing, as two of the most important figures in the Daoist religion, actually revealed expressions of admiration for those five tree demons at this time.
"Senior Brother, these five demons, although they are demons, are truly proficient in Daoist law."
Taibai Jinxing looked at Taishang Laojun and spoke with extreme seriousness.
"I have known about the five of them for a long time."
Taishang Laojun smiled lightly and spoke.
"Senior Brother, you knew about the five of them? Why did you never tell me?"
A look of confusion appeared in Taibai Jinxing's eyes as he spoke.
"It is not convenient to say yet. Right now, it concerns this Kalpa Tribulation, and I also have many things that are not convenient to say."
Taishang Laojun glanced at Taibai Jinxing and then spoke.
At this time, the immortals were all looking at Taishang Laojun and Taibai Jinxing; clearly, the topic they were discussing was one everyone was relatively concerned about.
"Then between Daoist law and Buddhist law, which one is the only one that can explain all the truths of the world?"
Lu Qingshu revealed confusion in his eyes and looked at Taishang Laojun.
Taishang Laojun smiled slightly, looked back toward the direction of the Western Heaven, and said, "For many years, the Tathagata has sent many Arhats to the lower world to spread Buddhist law, but I believe that, of course, it is Daoist law that can explain all the truths of the world."
The Heavenly Emperor Haotian smiled slightly at this time, looked at Taishang Laojun, and said, "Laojun, you are a member of the Daoist religion, so of course you would say that."
"These five tree demons have existed for so long, and in such a key position as Thorn Ridge—could it be that they are not spreading Daoist law for you?"
Taishang Laojun looked at Haotian, stroked his beard, and then his expression became somewhat awkward as he said, "I did not ask them to do that."
