Chapter 305: The Movement of Three Religions, the Spread of Buddhism to the West

When it comes to occupying territories, building up forces, and then joining the Celestial Empire to receive rewards, the ones most affected are none other than the princes and princesses.

After all, the world is so big that they can paint as they please. They can occupy land at will and turn it into their own fiefdom.

Even if there is competition, it is only among their dozens of brothers and sisters.

However, now, among the billions of people in China, at least hundreds of millions have gone abroad, and all of them are their competitors.

They couldn't help but complain that their father was a bad person. He thought their challenges were not difficult enough, so he forced them to create so many competitors.

And among them, there are not only people who spontaneously go out to explore the world.

There are also the three schools of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, which have a long historical heritage.

With the popularization of heavenly and earthly status, many powerful people were born among the three families. They have extremely strong organizational discipline and are the strongest competitors among the people.

Of course, that doesn’t mean other people don’t care.

Hundreds of millions of people will flock out and soon occupy the entire earth.

By then, no matter how strong they are, will they still dare to attack our territory?

Wouldn't your father whip you then?

With no other options, they set off in a hurry without caring whether they were ready or not, and rushed to various parts of the world.

Let’s talk about the three schools of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism.

Originally, within the Celestial Empire, Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism were all suppressed to the extreme.

No matter which school you belong to, you must be controlled by the government and must abide by the laws and systems of the Celestial Empire.

The situation in the past where Taoists and monks in Taoist temples were severely punished or even killed for breaking the precepts is gone forever.

They can expel people or file a complaint with the Censorate, but they cannot resort to lynching.

But now, they can go out and occupy land. Although they will eventually be incorporated into the Celestial Empire, this time is enough for them to pass on their own ideas.

Not to mention, after being incorporated into the Celestial Empire, it still has twenty years of autonomy.

And this is what they value most.

Twenty years is enough time for a generation to grow.

Especially within the Celestial Empire, not only is the energy rich, but it can also evolve into corresponding heavenly and earthly positions.

If they spread their own ideas with all their heart, they may be able to cultivate a group of people who possess the heavenly and spiritual status belonging to their Taoism.

In particular, the old Confucians, who had been suppressed to the point of total collapse, were even more enthusiastic at this time and continued to connect with organizations.

They want to get a piece of the pie in this world-dividing and unifying change, and hope that Confucianism and Taoism can return to their former glory, or even go further.

Wang Chao naturally had a full view of the actions of these Taoist sects.

However, he did not intervene and even fanned the flames.

If there is only one ideology under the rule of the Celestial Empire, then the Celestial Empire will become a stagnant pool and will inevitably have a limit to its growth.

What the dynasty wants is for a hundred flowers to bloom and for various paths to compete with each other.

Only in this way can we continuously broaden the extraordinary road, increase the rules of the sea of spiritual power, increase its foundation, continuously complete and perfect the transcendental fruit, and push the dynasty to climb higher.

In the spring of the 4385nd year of the Celestial Empire, in the th year of the Yellow Emperor's calendar, the Buddhist master Shi Chan led a group of eminent monks across thousands of mountains and rivers, intending to go to India to preach the Dharma.

At the same time, the master of the Qingyang Mountain Taoist Temple, the current number one figure in Taoism, and the master of Chen Zhengyang, the general of the White Tiger Legion, Shouxuzi.

He also led a group of Taoist masters across a long distance to the far west of Europe.

They wanted to discuss the mysteries of God with the God-loving people there to see whether their God was omniscient and omnipotent or whether the many gods of China were better.

Pangu Heavenly King, Sanqing Heavenly Lord, Haotian God, Zhenwu Xuantian God, Jiutian God, Shenxiao Jiuchen God, etc.

There are also other gods who are no less respected than Emperor Ziwei, Emperor Gou Chen, etc.

There are also beings like Gaoxu Qingming and the Emperor of Heaven.

The great Taoists wanted to see if the omniscient and omnipotent God was really omniscient and omnipotent.

The Buddhist and Taoist sects are taking action, and the remaining old Confucian scholars are also unwilling to lag behind.

They gathered a group of scholars, boarded a huge rune ship, crossed the vast ocean eastward, and headed to South America and other places.

They wanted to use Confucian and Taoist culture and ideas to educate the indigenous barbarians there.

In March of the 52nd year of the Celestial Empire, Master Shi Chan led a group of Buddhist monks to the birthplace of Buddhism.

They looked for monks in the temples, and were shocked to find that the essence of Buddhism in the birthplace of Buddhism seemed to be far inferior to that of Buddhism in China, and were even quite different.

Moreover, it seems that Buddhism almost perished before.

After hearing the news, Master Shi Chan and others could not help but look at each other in confusion. What should they do since their Buddhism was somewhat different from that of India?

Moreover, Buddhism today is believed in by only a small group of lower-class people in India.

The vast majority of people, and almost all high-level officials, do not believe in Buddhism.

It can be said that Buddhism today can only be regarded as a niche sect in India.

The really big religion is Hinduism, which accounts for 80% of the population.

Other religions include Christianity and Islam.

Buddhism accounts for only one percent, or less, of the population.

In addition, there are some more niche sects, such as Jainism, Judaism, and Baha'i.

In a temple meditation room, Master Shichan sat cross-legged, looking at the many great monks in front of him, and slowly said:

"You all already understand the current situation.

I don’t know, what do you guys think?”

"Of course, I will visit each family and use the Buddhist teachings of our Celestial Empire to refute them one by one."

"Then what about the Indian Buddhist sect?"

"."

Everyone looked at each other, and all remained silent.

After Indian Buddhism was introduced to the Central Plains, it underwent thousands of years of changes and evolution and had already undergone essential differences.

After a full quarter of an hour, an old monk with white beard and eyebrows finally spoke slowly:

"What we are spreading is the Buddhist teachings of our Celestial Empire.

Anything that is not my Buddha is false.

"It is a false sutra that was created by Mara to destroy the Buddha's teachings."

Everyone looked at the old monk, and after a moment of silence, they nodded.

"good!"

"What about the other sects?

Especially Hinduism, which has taken root all over India, it may not be easy for us to refute and defeat them."

After a brief silence, Master Shichan spoke:

"I heard that many people have also come to India."

"Well, there are two princes among them."

"Will they give us time to refute those sects?"

"Uh"

Instantly, everyone fell silent.

What they wanted was to occupy the territory, then incorporate it into the Celestial Empire and obtain rewards.

It can be said that everyone is an opponent of each other, so how could they give the enemy time?

"In that case, why not be more direct.

We will each display our Buddhist magical powers and suppress each place directly, and first obtain a stable Buddhist land."

"It's as it should be!"

"As it should be!"

"good!"

After a brief silence, everyone nodded, agreeing with what Master Shi Chan said.

"When?"

"Now!"

"Ok!"

Everyone looked at each other and nodded, then walked out of the meditation room and came to the room where the abbot was.

"Amitabha, Abbot, we wish to spread the Buddhist teachings of the Celestial Empire. I wonder if you are willing to convert to Buddhism."

Looking at the row of big monks in front of him, the temple abbot was a little confused.

No, do you want to listen to what you are saying?

You are in the birthplace of Buddhism, and you want me to convert to Buddhism?

Am I not a Buddhist now?

No, these people are talking about the Buddhism of the Celestial Empire.

Wasn’t Buddhism in the Celestial Empire introduced eastwards from India?

As if noticing his surprise, one of the monks kindly explained it to him.

"The Buddhism in this place has been corrupted by Mara. Only the Buddhism of our Celestial Empire is the true Dharma."

"You, you guys."

At this point, what else does the host not understand?

These monks from the Celestial Empire want to rebel against the Tian Gang and usurp their Tianzhu's dominant position in Buddhism.

"Huh, that's impossible."
