Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything

Chapter 826: Chapter 826: The Treasure Lotus Lantern Unearthed at Eastern Temple!

The Eastern Temple holds extraordinary significance for the Buddhist Sect; after all, it is the Taoist Arena of Maitreya, the Future Buddha!

Although it does not quite match the status of the Great Thunder Monastery, it is only slightly inferior.

However, with the fall of Maitreya Buddha, transformed into Maitreya, the status of the Eastern Temple naturally plummeted!

Despite his status as Future Buddha being unrevoked by the two Sage Sect Masters, his cultivation level fell to that of a Daluo Golden Immortal, memory lost, and his temperament changed completely…

So, from a fundamental perspective, is the current Maitreya really the same as the former Maitreya Buddha?

This issue is indeed quite ambiguous.

Nonetheless, since Maitreya still possesses the cultivation level of the Great Luo Golden Immortal Peak, second only to Randeng Buddha and Tathagata, the status of the Eastern Temple, despite its rapid decline, still holds an exalted position above other Buddha Taoist Arenas within the Buddhist sect.

Jiang Liu and Sun Wukong watched the magnificent and solemn Eastern Temple from a distance, neither in a hurry to act.

The Buddhist forces are concentrated mainly in the western Niuhe State, making the eastern Shengshenzhou Continent the least influential area for Buddhism.

Hence, although the Eastern Temple is extraordinarily grand, its power compared to the Great Thunder Monastery is significantly lacking.

As far as the eye can see, both the number of people and their cultivation levels are far inferior.

“Master, should we directly go in and search?” Not knowing what Jiang Liu is pondering, Sun Wukong, impatient as ever, couldn’t help but ask Jiang Liu.

“Of course not!” Jiang Liu shook his head upon hearing Sun Wukong’s words.

Even though Maitreya’s cultivation level is only at level 90, still within the bounds of a Daluo Golden Immortal, the two of them combined could put up a fight.
