Chapter 1781 The Proud Tathagata!

"Amitabha," after hearing the Tathagata's question, the smile on his face remained unchanged and he said calmly: "Why did the World Honored One say this?"

The Tathagata was speechless for a moment. He couldn't say that if you don't follow me, you would be abandoning Buddhism.

He has led Buddhism for endless years. If he didn't have this little scheming, he wouldn't have been able to sit in the position of leader of Buddhism for so long.

Maitreya Buddha shook his head when he saw this, with that honest smile still on his face, but his eyes were full of ridicule.

"Amitabha," Maitreya Buddha sighed, looked at Tathagata, and said in a deep voice: "It seems that World Honored One, you don't even know what you are insisting on. It seems that today's Buddhism is due for change..."

As he spoke, Maitreya Buddha's expression became serious, and the usual honest smile on his face disappeared, replaced by a cold look on his face.

"The poor monk supports the Randen Buddha to build the Xiaoleiyin Temple and worship Xuanzang as the leader of Buddhism!" Maitreya Buddha looked at Tathagata and said every word.

"I also support the Deng Deng Buddha!" ​​As soon as Maitreya Buddha finished speaking, someone in the crowd said.

Everyone followed the sound, only to find Fuhu Arhat standing up from the lotus platform and saying calmly.

The strong Buddhists present were not too surprised when they saw this. After all, the two Arhats subduing the dragon and subduing the tiger have always been in the same spirit. Now that the Arhat subduing the dragon has made it clear that he supports the burning Buddha, it is only a matter of time before the Arhat subduing the tiger steps forward. .

Tathagata's face was gloomy, his eyes swept across the faces of the powerful Buddhists, and he said word by word: "Whoever supports the Buddha of Ran Deng, please come forward."

He knew very well that the two great Buddhist figures, Randen Buddha and Maitreya Buddha, had stepped forward one after another. Now the division of Buddhism was inevitable. What he could do was to minimize the impact of the division of Buddhism.

It would be best if only Randen Buddha and Maitreya Buddha, plus some strong Buddhists who were good friends with them, left.

In this case, the fortune of Buddhism will not be lost too badly. During this immeasurable calamity, Buddhism will still be able to reap a lot of benefits to stabilize its position.

Upon hearing Tathagata's words, many powerful Buddhists in the Mahavira Hall immediately fell silent.

They are not fools, how could they not hear the threat hidden in Tathagata's words?

The Ran Deng Buddha and the Maitreya Buddha are powerful themselves, and the Dragon Subduing Arhat is also ranked among the best in Buddhism. These three people are not afraid of Tathagata's revenge at all.

Even the weaker Crouching Tiger Arhat is on good terms with the Dragon-Subduing Arhat. Tathagata must think twice even if he wants to touch the Crouching Tiger Arhat.

But they are different. If they dare to show their support for Ran Deng Buddha, even if Tathagata does not settle with them now, when the limelight here passes, Tathagata will probably come to them one by one to settle matters with them!

After all, Jin Chanzi’s lessons are still there!

The Tathagata is in charge of Buddhism and can be said to have the power of life and death of countless Buddhas and Arhats. Therefore, even if some people are quite moved in their hearts, they do not dare to express their attitude due to the intimidation of the Tathagata.

When Tathagata saw this scene, a flash of joy flashed across his eyes. He had been in charge of Buddhism for countless years and had accumulated great prestige. His position in Buddhism could not be shaken by just a few traitors!

"Amitabha, it seems that no one wants to leave with the Deng Deng Buddha," Tathagata looked at the Deng Deng Buddha and said calmly.

Although Tathagata looked calm, anyone could hear the pride in Tathagata's words!
