Honghuang: Myriad Worlds Buddhist Sect

After thinking of this, he smiled and put his dao fruit away. He had succeeded and entered the early primordial golden immortal stage, which made him very happy.

Then, he looked at the purple-gold sphere a bit further in front of him. It had grown in the time of his enlightenment, or rather, through his influence, it became much stronger.

"I feel a great harmony of mind. Hmm, this is a very good mind for a governor. Having good thoughts but being decisive and ruthless. It is very fitting! Anyways, the future buddhist sect will need a sect leader. We three founders can't do that… in the original story, it would be me who becomes the tathagata who leads Buddhism, and later it would be Doubao, who would convert to Buddhism in the conferred god calamity after Jiejiao was destroyed.

But I don't want to and Doubao doesn't have fitting laws. It would be much better if he became the Fortune Buddha since his origin is that of the Treasure Tower. The more buddhas there are, and the greater the variety, the better it would be!

Since you study the governing law… you will govern the Buddhist sect!"

After saying this, he preached to the purple sphere the foundation of four mindfulness. He planned to take him as his first disciple who would eventually lead the sect. It's a good idea to have his branch take the seat. His branch is meant to have few people, making it easier for the governor to be impartial when ruling.

He only needed to preach for a thousand years before the sphere formed in front of him and became an innate being, his cultivation in the middle stage of great golden immortal. This foundation is already very high, as his own foundation and that of others… one can't possible compare, right?

There is one innate righteousness and innate evil, while there are also only ten innate plants. As for main stars… there are 365! Even if Ziwei star has a higher position, there are still the two dippers, sun and moon and other starts of similar strength.

It would be too much if all their foundations were so good – wouldn't that mean that the starry sky had a higher foundation that the rest of the world? The starry sky might cover the whole world, but, just like the earth, it is very barren and empty with few true stars of high foundation. The rest of the millions of small stars don't need to be mentioned.

After transforming, the young man in purple bowed to Ran Deng "Thank you senior for giving me advice!"

"Good" he said, then asked without waiting "Do you want to become my disciple?"

The purple young man was surprised but instantly delighted and knelt down "Disciple greets the master!"

"Hahaha, very good! What is your name?"

"Disciple was given the name Ziqing!"

"A good name. Ziqing, as my first disciple and the first disciple of the future Buddhism, you will have to take care of the sect and all your juniors. I see that your innate law is the law of governance, which is very fitting.

In the future, you will be the sect leader appointed by me, your second master-uncle and your third master-uncle. You are the disciple of the three founders of Buddhism, so you have to be strong but also just!

You have learned and seen how I gained enlightenment, so you know that the path of Buddhism is not one of right and wrong, it is a path of supreme enlightenment through all ways!

The three branches are to end all suffering, to enlighten all beings and to reach Buddhahood with your own path. Suffering can be ended by helping them, but it can also be ended by sending them into reincarnation. You have to learn impartiality and only look at our supreme principles.

As long as suffering isn't inflicted and enlightenment isn't blocked, you will be right. As long as you follow the four mindfulness, your actions will be just. As long as you are right and just, you will gain enlightenment and become Buddha!"

After explaining a bit, Ran Deng told him another matter "Ziwei star is in the middle of the world and oversees all matters, so it will be the future seat of the Buddha court, and you will be the Ruling Buddha.

The sun and moon each have a connection to our sect, so they will also join the Buddha court. The sun gives light to all life, nourishing selfless, so the creature born there will be the Endless Warmth Buddha.

Moonlight guides lost souls in the darkness at night, so the creature born on the moon will be the Soul Guiding Buddha. You will personally appoint them in this respect. As for the other, they can join the buddha court on their own initiative, or they can do something else, it doesn't matter. As long as three for the five main ruling stars are part of the buddha court, the rest can be left for other forces."

In fact, Ran Deng never thought of dominating the world. It is counterproductive to the improvement of the world. He only wanted the buddhist sect to be strong and some people he disliked losing power, as for the rest, it didn't matter.

Anyways, conflict created opportunities and inspiration. If there is truly a singular ruling body in the world, it would mean the world has stagnated and catastrophe isn't far.

As for his confidence that he would always remain strong? Unlike thee three pure ones and their three sects, the three buddhist branches aren't contradictory and even rely on and help each other. They only need to help each other and stay together. With strength and numbers, there wouldn't be any foe that can't be fought.

After leaving some instructions for Ziqing, he left the star and headed towards the sun.

When he arrived, it took some effort but he was able to enter the formation and he moved towards the centre of the sun. There was another huge tree with fruits hanging.

Below the three, there were three spheres.

What many didn't know was that the primordial light, the first light that shined in the world, was also born on the sun. Unfortunately, it had its origin stolen by the two crows, so it became weaker. In the end, it became the Vairocana Buddha.

"Hmph, you two are so domineering. The sun can't nurture two strong people, so instead it stole the origin of a third being. Only with this help was it able to create two brothers, one stronger than the other, at the cost of a light innate being that had a much weaker origin. Bah!"

After saying this, he simply moved his hands and the two crow eggs that were about to absorb the light sphere in the middle were pushed away and put together. Then, under his power, they fused back into one egg.

Just like Wangshu who is currently being nourished on the moon, this sun creature has a strong origin, no weaker than Ziqing, and would be a future buddha, the Endless Warmth Buddha which he had mentioned.

Then, he took the sphere of shining light into his sleeves and left the sun.
