Chapter 540 The Necessity of Strategic Deception

Taoist Master Ran Deng offered to endure Wen Rui's full strength three times, without dodging or evading, and took it all with his own body.

This is one of the Buddha's usual methods to subdue demons, and it demonstrates the Buddha's spirit of cutting flesh to feed eagles and sacrificing his body to feed tigers, using compassion and tolerance to resolve hatred.

Wen Rui was actually constrained by his high attitude for a moment. He didn't know whether to refuse or agree.

If you flatly refuse, you will be accused of being blinded by hatred, cruel and indifferent to all living things. If a great war between Buddhism and Taoism really happens in the future, and the flames of the war affect the deaths of all living beings, the blame will most likely be put on Wen Rui, the instigator.

The Western Church and the Chan Church are best at standing on the moral high ground and then putting labels on their opponents. At the beginning, there were two labels. One label accused the disciples of the Jie Church of "having fur and horns, and being born from eggs in moisture", and the second label accused the Master Tongtian of "not managing his subordinates strictly and allowing them to commit crimes".

After several hats were put on them, several saints lost their moral principles and joined forces to beat up Master Tongtian. They destroyed the Jiejiao sect and did not bear any karmic backlash.

How could Wen Rui, who had set up a merit laboratory at the base and conducted meticulous research, be careless? He would never make such a mistake and give his opponents a reason to attack him from a moral perspective.

But if you agree...

In fact, he did not hate Master Ran Deng that much. After the failure that year, his anger towards Wen Zhong and Jin Ling Sheng Mu, the two stupid teammates, was even stronger than his hatred towards his enemies in the Chan Sect and the Western Sect.

If Wen Zhong and the Golden Spirit Mother had not been so kind to him, he would have been unable to resist cursing unkindly: "It's hard to persuade the damned ghost with kind words."

Moreover, with all the skills he currently possesses, he may not be able to extinguish the lamp even if he uses all his methods.

The reason why Ran Deng dared to put forward such a condition was naturally that he had absolute confidence in his own cultivation. The Three Buddhas were much higher than ordinary Buddhas. Before becoming a Buddha, Ran Deng had already reached the realm of Daluo Jinxian. After the double buffs were superimposed, let alone Wen Rui's attack, even if the Golden Spirit Mother attacked, three moves might hurt him, but it would be impossible to kill him.

The result is likely that Wen Rui will deploy his troops and unleash the most powerful and shocking attack he can. The power of the Hunyuan Thunder and Fire will change the heaven and earth and terrify all the ghosts and gods, but after the smoke clears, Randeng will only suffer superficial injuries.

Isn't this tantamount to slapping oneself in the face? Not only did it fail to achieve the strategic goal of discrediting Western religions, but it also greatly increased the momentum of Western religions.

Otherwise, Wen Rui would not have designed "social nirvana" to deal with Randeng. Humiliating him is more cruel than killing him, and it is also easier to do.

After some consideration, Wen Rui had made up his mind that he would never accept this condition.

However, how to refuse has become a problem that must be dealt with seriously.

"Randeng, you are bullying me because I am of low level. Do you think that even if I try my best, I can't make you annihilate?"

"I have never underestimated your ability. The Arhat Vajra Formation is the best defensive formation in the Three Realms. Five hundred Arhats worked together to set it up and supported it with great effort, but you broke it."

Taoist Master Ran Deng pretended to be modest and said, "It is difficult for this poor monk to withstand the extremely yang magic weapon you call the 'hydrogen bomb' without any harm in his lifetime."

"Although my cultivation level is low and my aptitude is insufficient to achieve immortality, I have a lot of experience. Don't you know that you are deceiving me?"

Wen Rui said in a cold voice: "Others don't know your background, but I do. You are the first beam of light between heaven and earth that gave birth to spiritual wisdom. Your Taoist name, Randeng, means the first light in the dark room. In the Western religion, you also have another Dharma name, 'Dingguang Tathagata'. No matter how powerful my hydrogen bomb is, it can't destroy photons. You just need to change back to your original form and you will be unharmed. Maybe you can even draw energy from the explosion to strengthen yourself!" Randeng's expression was stern, but he was relieved soon, and said: "My friend Wen once collected the scriptures of my religion and knew a lot about my religion. If I had known this, I should have strictly ordered the disciples of the Sutra Library not to exchange the gold sand with you."

"In addition, you obtained the twenty-four Dinghai Pearls from my great-grandmaster, and refined them together with the Heaven-Measurement Ruler into the twenty-four heavens."

Wen Rui continued, "If I want to hurt you, my magical powers must first pass through the twenty-four heavenly barriers before they can reach you. Otherwise, they will be so far away that they are out of reach."

Spreading out his hands, Wen Rui shook his head and said, "With these two protective trump cards, you are so confident that you can sit on the lotus platform and let me do whatever I want, without worrying about any mistakes. You even planned to show off your skills in front of the gods and embarrass a young man like me. You really have a plan!"

The Taoist Master Ran Deng looked solemn, and after a long while he sighed and said, "What a great insight, you actually predicted everything. If I promise not to change back to my original form, not to sacrifice the twenty-four gods, not to resist in any way, and only to face the danger with my pure Buddha body, are you willing to accept the agreement to end our grudge?"

"Hmph, there's no need for you to let go."

Wen Rui smiled and said, "Do you really think I have no way to deal with your two trump cards? Anti-photons cannot annihilate photons, but black holes can capture photons and confine light within the event horizon. Even if you turn into your original form, I can imprison you for billions of years until you are annihilated."

"The twenty-four heavens are not the twenty-four universes. Although the spatial scale is large, the jump engine can also arrive in an instant."

"Whether you understand what I'm saying or not, what I'm saying is that if you just sit there and take the beating without fighting back or dodging, I can really make you live a life worse than death. Not yet extinguished is the same as extinguishing."

Talking about theoretical knowledge, Wen Ruike is absolutely right. Although the technology of leaping to drop black hole bombs is only in the project establishment stage, it does not stop him from bragging.

It is true that it has not been developed yet, but that does not mean it cannot be developed in the future.

If you are lucky, you may win it directly in the next system draw.

Even if Taoist Master Ran Deng could not understand the individual nouns uttered by Wen Rui, the mysterious connection could help him predict good or bad luck. As soon as Wen Rui uttered these words, a storm arose in the pure and calm sea of consciousness of Taoist Master Ran Deng.

Great omen!

This proves that what this boy said is true and has the potential to destroy the Buddha.

It was the first time that the Taoist Master Ran Deng felt a warning of an ominous omen from the sky since he obtained the twenty-four Dinghai Pearls and mastered his Taoism.

If Wen Rui, the time traveler, had not interfered with the world line, he would have to wait until at least the Journey to the West catastrophe was over before he could give up this precious first time.

Wen Rui had a look of arrogance, with murderous intent gradually revealing in his eyes. The domineering spirit of killing gods and Buddhas was about to burst out. In his eyes, the Buddha of the past seemed to be just a fish on the chopping board. If the other party dared to let him kill, he would dare to kill, and he could kill.

"Randeng, think carefully. If Mie Du is in my hands, your life and death will be a small matter. My revenge will only give me a momentary pleasure. Anyway, if you dare to die, I dare to bury you."

Wen Rui changed the subject: "It's just that the Buddha's death is the first of its kind, and the one who died is the ancestor of all Buddhas in the past, breaking the myth of the Three Realms that those who have perfected their enlightenment and practice are neither born nor destroyed, neither dirty nor clean, and neither increase nor decrease. Does this mean that the death knell of the Dharma Ending Age has officially sounded? Do sentient beings in the Three Realms still have a chance to be saved by the Dharma?"
