Chapter 213: The Eight Commandments that had been Miscalculated (2)

At this moment, Kong Xuan also said, “Even if we want to leave the Western sect, we have to have a cause and effect. This disciple might be able to get involved in the cause and effect and help us find them.”

Zhu Bajie nodded and roughly understood.

He smiled and said, “I see!”

This matter was very simple.

Although the saints were strong, they were not completely unreasonable.

On the contrary, the saints also had their own behavioral patterns.

They were now members of Western sects.

If they left for no reason and completely disrespected the rules, that would be a betrayal.

When the time came, there would be no problem in punishing them.

But if their disciples had conflicts with some people in their own sects, then they could take advantage of it.

At the same time, if these disciples were to join someone else’s sect, it would also cause them to be tied to other sects.

In this way, they might be able to pull on the other saints as their backing.

However, if the disciples were to pull on karma, they could advance or retreat.

This was just a general idea. As for the specifics, it would depend on the specific operation.

Seeing that Zhu Bajie understood, Sun Wukong smiled and said, “Let’s hypothesize. If Lu Ping isn’t a pawn of the two in our sect, but someone else’s, no matter who it is, wouldn’t we have already formed a karma connection with him? Even if we have the opportunity in the future to join this person’s sect, our control would be much better than it is now.”

This was indeed true. The rules of the Western sects were much stricter than the other large sects.

After the last catastrophe, the Jiejiao, Chanism, and Manism were all in name only.

Furthermore, the three pure ones naturally had relatively weak control over their disciples.

However, at the same time, the three of them were the ancestors of Taoism. Their cultivation techniques were passed down throughout the universe.

No matter how hard the Western sects tried, they were unable to dominate.

This also showed the difference between the two sides.

Although the Western religion spread,from the point of view of ordinary people, their teachings were more easily accepted.

For example, if one does good deeds, one can get merit.

Using good deeds in exchange for a better life was normal.

Good people will be rewarded.

This is what they stress.

However, in the end, people pursue profit.

So, the weakness that can enter many people’s hearts, can be spread among the masses.

Those who do evil, can believe in Buddha and can be exonerated.

Those who do good, can believe in Buddha and seek a better life.

But what was the disadvantage of Western religion?

Cultivation!

Many Western teachings emphasized many things.

Most of the Western teachings were related to virtues and commandments. Many were ascetic teachings.

But when it came to real cultivation, if one did not abide by the rules and commandments, did things absurdly, and did not practice Buddhism, it would be quite difficult to achieve true results, except for rare geniuses.

Compared to Daoist techniques, it was easier and had fewer restrictions.

Free will was more agreeable to people.

At this time, people would still choose cultivation techniques that were more in line with their own hearts.

Take Fengming Planet as an example.

In terms of sects, the Ten Thousand Buddhas sect was at the top.

However, when compared to the overall Taoist heritage, they were actually at a disadvantage.

Especially with the beginning of national cultivation, more and more people began to abandon Buddhist teachings.

Originally, people had only lived for a few decades. Some people in their middle and old age would inevitably think of the afterlife.

But now, everyone was thinking about how to increase their cultivation and increase their lifespan.

This afterlife karma seemed to be somewhat unattractive to cultivators.

This was also one of the reasons why Zhun Ti felt that the Western religion’s luck was unstable.

This was a change brought about by the changes in the external environment.

It could be said that Zhun Ti’s arrangement during the last calamity had led to the prosperity of Buddhism.

However, as society progressed, the fruits of this victory were constantly diminishing.

The Taoist lineage, on the other hand, won by not winning and doing nothing.

However, this was only seen from the perspective of the impact on human beings.

As for Zhu Bajie, Kong Xuan, and Sun Wukong, they had never liked the Western religion’s management model.

To put it bluntly, they didn’t want to work there anymore.

They didn’t like the atmosphere.

Everyone was like this. Different people had different ideas and pursued different goals.

Just like what was said before, people like the Sand Monk were still relatively well-behaved, and they were very satisfied with staying in the Western religion.

However, for these three people, it would be better if they could start their own thing. Even if they couldn’t really start their own thing, it would be best if they could change jobs.
