The Western Sect Master will not be an opponent of the Lord of the Spirit Mountain. "Journey to the West" and "Romance of the Gods" are rare masterpieces in the field of traditional mythology in China, and they have always had a good status among the people. In the book, Wu Chengen and Xu Zhonglin are both based on countless gods and goddesses in religion and folk, creating impressive immortals.
Among them, Western religion and "Buddhism" have long been considered inextricably linked by readers. Some people say that Western religion is the precursor of Buddhism; It is also said that Buddhism is Zhun Ti, a sect founded after not wanting to manage the "mess". So, which statement is true?
The Western Sect Leader Zhun Ti, and the Lord of the Spirit Mountain, who has stronger mana?
Let's start with the first question, what is the relationship between Western religion and Buddhism: the answer is simple: Western religion is a "Middle Earth missionary branch" under the umbrella of Buddhism. Why do you say that, many readers think that it is the Bodhi and Amitabha Buddha in the Journey to the West world, which is actually wrong:
In Buddhism, "Zhun Ti" is just a bodhisattva. Although he is well-known in Buddhism and has a high position, he is still very inferior to some "Buddhas". If Western Christianity is the precursor of Buddhism, how can Zhunti be just a bodhisattva?
In fact, he is just a subordinate of the "top boss" of Buddhism.
At that time, the gods were catastrophic, and the Middle Earth Daomen was constantly in dispute, and in the context of the "Martial King's War", the human world was also a beacon of fire and wolf smoke. At this time, the Western Heaven Buddhism had a plan to "preach", so it independently created a "Western Teaching" part and sent two "great bodhisattvas" of Buddhism, that is, to lead, and Zhun Ti was responsible for this matter.
Since Zhun Ti is Rulai's subordinate, then the topic of which is stronger or weaker between him and Rulai is clear at a glance.
A common mistake that many people make is to mistakenly think that the Duobao Daoist in the Romance of the Gods is Rulai; In fact, what is said in the original book is "Duobao worships Shakyamuni in the West", that is, Duobao went to the West and worshiped Shakyamuni as a teacher. It's not that he "became Rulai".

Can't fight, the Western Sect Leader and the Lord of the Spirit Mountain are actually one person according to the relationship, the Western Sect did not have the Spirit Mountain when it was founded, and it developed into the Spirit Mountain after continuous evolution, so the Western Sect Master is the Lord of the Spirit Mountain.
-
You can't tell the winner because of the different eras. Western leaders founded Western religion, which later became Buddhism. The lord of Lingshan is Rulai, that is, the later sect master.

I think it's definitely the Lingshan Sect Master who is more powerful. Because the practice of the Western Sect Master is mainly to educate the people, he is naturally weaker than the Lord of the Spirit Mountain, who specifically wants to rule others, in terms of fist and foot kung fu.
