I am Jiang Ming, the Eternal Demon Emperor

Chapter 922 Slaying the Five-Colored Deer of the Child City
And the Seven Absolutes Mountain storyline.

There's nothing difficult about it; just follow the original storyline. The monsters here are no match for the Six-Eared Macaque. As for that 800-mile-long stinking ditch, Pigsy will help; he can transform into a wild boar and clear it all away.

This is a solution similar to the original plot.

After the pilgrimage team continued their journey, they arrived at a new place three months later. There lived a small lion in the Lion Kingdom, who was a master of illusion and managed to fool the Six-Eared Macaque's fiery eyes.

However, in the end, they were all wiped out and killed.

This ordeal was nothing compared to the fact that the pilgrimage team eventually continued their journey.

Two months later, they arrived at another town.

Children's City.

Jiang Ming, of course, knew what had happened. The Five-Colored Deer of the Antarctic Immortal, the eldest disciple of the Primordial Celestial Venerable, had descended to the mortal realm and tricked a fox spirit from Qingqiu into seducing the king. It wanted to eat the child's heart and liver.

It has to be said, this five-colored deer is really greedy.

Thus, when this calamity came, before the Old Man of the South Pole could even appear, Jiang Ming's clone, the Monkey King, secretly struck and killed the Five-Colored Deer with a single blow.

One hundred.

As I've already said, the journey to the West is no longer safe.

Some people still don't believe it. Now let them reap what they sow.

After passing this point, the pilgrimage team continued onward.

Four months later.

The pilgrimage team arrived at the capital city of India.

This time, the pilgrimage team has finally arrived at a kind and generous family. The host here especially enjoys welcoming monks.

When the pilgrimage team arrived here, they were naturally given a warm welcome.

Jiang Ming knew very well that there were no monsters in these places, so he just had to follow the normal plot.

Then, the pilgrimage team stayed with this family for a while and even helped them solve some problems.

Of course, the worst of the two is the stepmother.

The truth finally came out.

Of course, there's also the daughter of this family, who is in love with a man outside. They are a pair of lovelorn lovers, and it's hard to say whether it's good or bad. Jiang Ming won't get involved.

The housekeeper's affair with the stepmother must naturally be brought to justice.

Having finished dealing with matters here, the pilgrimage team continued their journey.

Two months later.

The pilgrimage team arrived at Ciyun Temple.

"Master, we have arrived at Ciyun Temple."

The Six-Eared Macaque said happily.

He already knew that the journey to the West would soon reach its destination.

"Our master visits temples and monasteries wherever he goes, so we might as well go in and rest for the night."

Sha Wujing also spoke up.

The pilgrimage team has now reached this point, and everyone knows they are close to the Great Thunderclap Temple in the Western Paradise. Are they all in high spirits?

"Now that we've arrived at Ciyun Temple, let's go in and pay our respects."

Jiang Ming naturally went with the flow and followed the plot.

The pilgrimage team has come a long way and is almost at the end of its journey.

Jiang Ming's cultivation level also quietly advanced to the Quasi-Saint level of severing the three corpses last night.

In this way, he awaits the resolution of cause and effect, becoming a sage of the Great Dao of Creation. At that time, his Pangu Dao will be complete. Successfully entering the Pangu Realm can be considered the fulfillment of all his merits on the path of cultivation.

"Since that's the case, Little White Dragon will come along too."

Jiang Ming offered a reminder.

The little white dragon immediately transformed into a bald little monk and followed the pilgrimage team into Ciyun Temple.
The Ciyun Temple, both in its scenery and its architecture, is full of Indian style.

The monks of Ciyun Temple naturally gathered around, excitedly peeking in. They were certainly broadening their horizons.

"The arrival of the eminent monk from the Tang Dynasty has brought great honor to our humble temple."

The abbot of Ciyun Temple spoke.

"Elder, you are too kind. May I ask which prefecture or county your temple is located in?"

Jiang Ming casually inquired, "The small temple is located in Jinping Prefecture of Tianzhu Kingdom. It's two thousand miles away from the capital."

The old monk spoke first.

"How far is it from the Western Paradise?"

Jiang Ming asked again casually.

"This humble monk has no chance to see the true Buddha, nor has he ever been to Mount Ling, so naturally he does not know how far it is, and dares not speak presumptuously."

The old monk spoke with difficulty.

“Master, Master, what is the Great Thunder Temple on Mount Ling? It’s not on the ground, so even if you ask him, he won’t know.”

The Six-Eared Macaque spoke.

"Yes, Master, don't ask anymore. Why don't you ask when we're going to eat? My stomach is growling with hunger."

Pigsy spoke up.

"I'm sorry, my disciple has a big appetite and can't stand being hungry. I hope you'll forgive him, Elder."

Jiang Ming spoke up.

“Venerable monk, please do not stand on ceremony. Please proceed to the monks’ hall for a meal.”

The old monk smiled and said.

Then, led by the old monk, the pilgrimage team continued their tour of Ciyun Temple.

"As I walked along, I saw laughter and joy everywhere, with lanterns and decorations everywhere. Is there some important festival today?"

Along the way, Jiang Ming continued to chat casually with the old monk.

"Today is the thirteenth day of the first lunar month, and the Lantern Festival is the day after tomorrow."

The old monk spoke first.

"Unexpectedly, after traveling thousands of miles through mountains and rivers to reach a foreign land, I still hear people celebrating the Lantern Festival."

Jiang Ming spoke up.

"I admire you, Venerable Monk. You may not know this, but every year on the Lantern Festival, we decorate our place with lanterns and play music all night long. This is a custom that has been passed down since ancient times and continues to this day."

The old monk continued speaking.

"This humble monk only knows that our Great Tang Dynasty has the custom of the Lantern Festival, but I did not know that it can also be seen here."

Jiang Ming said with emotion.

"Since the venerable monk has traveled a long way to reach our Jinping Prefecture, let him stay a few more days and leave after the Lantern Festival."

The old monk spoke first.

"In that case, this humble monk will respectfully comply."

Jiang Ming said politely.

And so, Jiang Ming decided to stay until after the Lantern Festival.

Time flies, it's already two days later.

Tonight, the streets were bustling with activity, the atmosphere of the Lantern Festival was incredibly vibrant, and everyone was immersed in joy.

The rest of the pilgrimage team, of course, went out to enjoy themselves.

Tonight, it seems there are many people around. It's not in the wild, and everyone has let their guard down.

Pigsy, Sandy, and the Six-Eared Macaque all went out to play.

The old monk led Jiang Ming along a different route, explaining the local customs and culture to him along the way.

The story of the Lantern Festival in Jinping Prefecture was also mentioned.

It lasted for a thousand years.

Here, monks offer incense oil to Buddha, praying for favorable weather and abundant harvests.

Jiang Ming naturally knew that this place was created by three rhinoceros demons who impersonated Buddha to receive offerings.

Although the three monsters didn't do anything particularly bad, it's still wrong to start by deceiving people.

The worst thing they could have done was to provoke the pilgrimage team and kidnap Tang Sanzang; that was the real disaster they caused.

This was also a calamity in the lives of the three demons. If they could escape it, they could live a carefree life; if they couldn't, they would die and perish.
