Chapter 1154: Chapter 669_2

Chen Sanzang glanced faintly at the dispersed immortals in the sky, clearly indicating that these guys also had their own small circles and teams.

“I need to make some preparations, first release Little Kongkong, ensuring that these guys can’t escape, and then transcend them all.”

Old Xi expressed that he needed to wait a moment, as he still had some preparations to make.

“Old Xi, you really are useless!”

“Why is the Golden Cicada so slow with fetching the scriptures?”

“I’ve watched for a year, and it feels like the Golden Cicada isn’t fetching scriptures westward but on a leisure tour.”

“How does this guy know the cultivation method of the Joyful Buddha? And even pick some excellent mountain spirits and wild demon beauties for joyful dual cultivation?”

“Why does the Golden Cicada feel so unreliable?”

“Wasn’t it said that in this lifetime the Golden Cicada has the cultivation of a Heavenly Immortal? Why can’t it be detected?”

…

The Five Directions Jiedi gathered together, chattering endlessly.

At this moment, a year had passed since Chen Sanzang left the Great Qin Capital, but he still hadn’t left the territory of the Great Qin Empire.

Not to mention, there’s still half the journey to the Five Elements Mountain, and at this pace, it might take another year!

When he leaves the Great Qin Empire’s territory and encounters various disasters, it’s estimated that Chen Sanzang’s speed will be even slower. Reaching the Western Heaven Great Leiyin Temple might take decades!

Uh, setting out in the prime of life, walking the long road of life, and only reaching the destination when white-haired and aged, is this a way to outshine a bunch of Bodhisattvas and Buddhas?

The Golden Head Jiedi, Silver Head Jiedi, Paragate Jiedi, Boluo Monk Jiedi, and Mahakaruna Jiedi calculated the time Chen Sanzang would need and instantly got headaches.

“How about sending someone down to do a little trick to urge him on?”

The Golden Head Jiedi rubbed his bald head, feeling that Chen Sanzang was deliberately causing delays, but he had no evidence.

“Look, he’s off searching every mountain for little demons again. How many has he harmed now?”

Watching the brazen Chen Sanzang, dragging a charming female demon into a cave to discuss Buddhist law, all the guardians instantly felt exasperated.

“This is the ninety-ninth victim, just not sure whether this female demon will be transcended by the Golden Cicada, or sent to the underworld to meet Ksitigarbha in the next life.”

Paragate Jiedi’s tone was somewhat sour, especially since some female demons, after serving the Golden Cicada well, were sent to Ksitigarbha’s Place and gained immense opportunity.

Keep in mind, Ksitigarbha had a good relationship with the Golden Cicada, and any demon sent by the Golden Cicada would listen to the teachings at Ksitigarbha’s Place.

Ksitigarbha, a top-level Daluo Golden Immortal, whose teachings on the Daoist skill were greatly beneficial to these Jiedi, might even help them break through to the True Immortal Realm and reach the Golden Immortal Level.

As for female demons who didn’t serve the Golden Cicada well, or even wanted to eat the Golden Cicada’s flesh to gain immortality, they were all transcended by some shameless guy’s Buddhist law.

The most outrageous part was, whenever a female demon revealed her true form and met the taste of a certain bald monk, even her corpse would be processed into delicacies, eaten clean.

The Six Ding and Six Jia, Five Directions Jiedi, Four Value Officials, and Eighteen Guardian Jialan escorting the Golden Cicada felt he was wicked, without any semblance of an enlightened monk.

They truly couldn’t understand why the Golden Cicada in this life was so murderous and unrestrainedly evil, and how he attained the title of Master Sanzang in this life.

Especially after the Golden Cicada committed so many evil deeds, yet his Buddha Essence was extremely pure, even comparable to the Buddha’s Buddha Essence.

It’s simply absurd!

“How about reporting it? I feel something’s not right with the Golden Cicada. Continuing like this, never mind achieving Buddhahood, the likelihood of him becoming a great demon is higher!”

“Or we could wait a bit longer? Maybe after he releases Sun Wukong, things will improve, after all, the monkey is stronger and should be able to prevent him from continuing his evil ways.”

Time flew by, and another year passed in a flash.

Chen Sanzang was having a great time on his journey, truly finding a cave in every mountain, entering every forest, transforming every beautiful female demon he came across.

Those who followed him, gained great opportunities.

Those who didn’t, received great fortune.

The former, after being transformed by him, were sent into the Netherworld, arranged to reincarnate as humans in the next life, in the Great Qin Empire.

The latter, transcended by him, were sent into the Western Paradise. Whether they could meet the Buddha, that was unknown.

After all, he provided the great fortune; if they couldn’t seize it themselves, who could they blame?

In any case, he only transcended them, incidentally taking all their inheritance, including cultivation, even their corpses.

For example, a certain female rabbit, feeling the magnificence of Buddhist law and wishing to join the Buddhist Sect, was packed and transcended to the Western Paradise by Chen Sanzang.

Incidentally, he marinated her rabbit head with spice – truly delicious.

Riding a little tiger, one day, Chen Sanzang finally arrived at the border of the Great Qin Empire, outside the Two Worlds Mountain.

Looking at the towering peaks like five bare fingers piercing the sky, this guy couldn’t help but marvel at how impressive the Tathagata was, worthy of being the former senior brother of the Jie Sect.

“Old Xi, if I don’t climb the mountain to pay respects, could I forcibly break this seal and release Little Kongkong?”

Faced with the towering peaks, Chen Sanzang had not the slightest desire to climb, especially as these barren Five Elements Mountains had nothing atop them, not even a thought of seeking secluded depths or a chance encounter with young sisters.

“If you completely transcend the Golden Cicada, inheriting all his cultivation, you could forcibly break it.”

Old Xi, with some exploration, discovered that these Five Elements Mountains connected to the earth’s veins, gathering the Five Elements of Heaven and Earth power to form shackles. Plus, the Buddha Seal left by the Tathagata on the peak restrained Sun Wukong.

However, this seal wasn’t very strong. As long as there was a Daluo Realm expert, they could violently break it.

Nobody released Sun Wukong because the Buddhist Sect stationed people there and a Daluo Realm expert wouldn’t want to offend the Buddhist Sect.

After all, the reputation of the two saints of the Buddhist Sect wasn’t great, and helping the monkey could land one in trouble with the Western Teaching. After all, the Jie Sect was the biggest scapegoat back then, wasn’t it?

“Damn it, do I really have to climb the mountain to pay respects to the Tathagata? Hmph, today I pay respect to him, but tomorrow, I will make him repay tenfold!”

Chen Sanzang cursed inwardly but didn’t climb the mountain immediately, instead heading towards the place where Sun Wukong was imprisoned.

“Little Kongkong, your fated teacher has come to recruit you!”

Holding a staff in one hand and a small wine gourd in the other, Chen Sanzang sat atop the little tiger, drinking while chanting Buddhist prayers.

“Oh, today there’s a Drinking and Eating Monk? It’s been a long time since Old Sun had a drink. Give Old Sun a cup to satisfy the craving.”

With people from the Great Qin Empire taking care of him, although Sun Wukong was suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain, apart from being unable to move, he wasn’t lacking in food or drink.

However, wine was seldom sent because the monkey had poor liquor manners, liked to curse the heavens, earth, and the Buddha when drunk.

The people of the Great Qin Empire were also afraid of being noted down by the Buddha, so when serving Sun Wukong, they rarely gave him wine to drink.

“Eh, I thought monkeys were all lean, why is Little Kongkong so plump?”

Chen Sanzang looked at Sun Wukong, half a shoulder and head outside the Five Elements Mountain, with a face full of mischief.

He had seen many versions of Brother Monkey, but this was the first time seeing one so round. His monkey face had turned into a round ball, full of comedic effect.

Time flew by, and another year passed in a flash.

Chen Sanzang was having a great time on his journey, truly finding a cave in every mountain, entering every forest, transforming every beautiful female demon he came across.

Those who followed him, gained great opportunities.

Those who didn’t, received great fortune.
