Honghuang: The Golden Crow Emperor, starts by robbing the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 253 Guanyin Temple
Tang Seng was stunned as if struck by lightning. He stood there in a daze, unable to understand why. He had clearly spared those robbers, but why did they continue to do evil and even worse?

"The Bodhisattva said that one can become a Buddha immediately after putting down the butcher knife. Can those robbers also become Buddhas after putting down their butcher knives?"

"Evil people can also become Buddhas, so how can there still be a distinction between good and evil?"

"We are wholeheartedly doing good and don't want to kill, but we end up hurting others. Are we really doing the right thing? Is Buddha really right?"

Sun Wukong spoke casually while digging a hole to bury the grandfather and grandson.

But these words stung Tang Seng's heart deeply.

"Have we done anything wrong? Is Buddhism always right?"

“Don’t kill the wicked, because good people will die.”

Tang Seng muttered to himself and once again questioned Buddhism.

The emotions fluctuated so much that finally, the demon seed in his soul broke, and the memories of his previous nine lives were awakened, along with the memories of the six-winged golden cicada.

There is also the divine shoulder dragon, a lifelike black dragon tattoo covering the entire shoulder and back.

With so many memories suddenly awakened, Tang Seng covered his head in pain. In the previous nine lives, he questioned Buddhism, but Guanyin always evaded him by using the true scriptures.

Of course, he had seen the true scriptures before, and he had written them himself, so he could not resolve those doubts at all.

Guanyin deceived him, all Buddhas are hypocritical.

At this moment, the message left by Luohou rang in his mind: "Six-winged Golden Cicada, don't make a sound, continue to travel west, and don't disrupt the journey. You are the one destined to obtain the scriptures, no matter how you mess around, no one dares to do anything to you."

"Hide in Lingshan and complete your journey to the west. The merits of Buddhism can help you become a saint again. I will lead you to create glory again and destroy this hypocritical Buddha."

After hearing Luohou's message, Tang Seng calmed down instead. Now that he had broken free from Zhunti's method of salvation, he thought back to the days in Lingshan. All the Buddhas were so disgusting and hypocritical.

It’s better to live a carefree life with Luohu. At least Luohu says what he thinks and won’t be hypocritical.

Luohou was also righteous. At the last moment, he sent a message to let them run. Although they were defeated in the end, Luohou did not let them down.

He and Taoist Mosquito were captured purely because of bad luck. They happened to run into Hongjun in the chaos. It was not Luohou's fault.

He would rather become a demon and follow Rāhu in a glorious way than become a Buddha and face those hypocritical Buddhas.

Thinking of this, Tang Seng's eyes changed. They were no longer calm and peaceful, but rather had a hint of coldness and irritability.

Guanyin was afraid that something might happen to Tang Seng, so she hurried over and chanted a mantra to calm him down. She then used the Tripitaka Sutra to trick him.

Tang Seng almost couldn't help but beat Guanyin.

But for the sake of the Demon Ancestor's plan, he endured it, clasped his hands together, and said in a perfunctory manner: "Thank you for your guidance, Bodhisattva. I will obtain the true scriptures as soon as possible and teach sentient beings."

Guanyin nodded with great satisfaction and glared at Sun Wukong again. If Sun Wukong had not missed taking the purple gold bowl and did not turn back, Tang Seng's Buddhist heart would not have almost collapsed.

Tang Seng and Sun Wukong were unaware that they were in the same group. After building a tomb and erecting a monument for the grandfather and grandson, Tang Seng recited the mantra for rebirth.

In the evening, the bandits came back and planned to use this place as their base.

When he saw Tang Seng and Sun Wukong, his face changed drastically and he turned around and ran away.

"Master, what should we do this time?" Sun Wukong asked Tang Seng's opinion.

"Kill." Tang Seng only uttered one word.

"Okay." Sun Wukong was very satisfied. It seemed that this monk was not so pedantic and they could get along well.

Sun Wukong took out his golden cudgel and smashed the five bandits into pulp.

In the heaven, Guanyin watched this scene with her eyelids twitching wildly. After all, it still caused a great shock to Tang Seng, and his character changed a lot. "This Tang Seng is not bad, unlike other Buddhas who are hypocritical. They always say that they are dedicated to goodness, saving all living beings, and not killing, but in fact, they have a lot of blood on their hands."

Yang Jian said sarcastically.

Guanyin looked unhappy. To put it bluntly, Buddhism is used to restrain all living beings and gain the power of faith.

Yang Jian was blatantly provoking Lingshan, but she didn't dare to say anything because she herself might not be able to defeat Yang Jian.

Yang Jian has the support of Heaven and the Jinwu Sect, so Lingshan can't afford to offend him.

In the lower world, Tang Seng and Sun Wukong rested for a night, set out again, and walked to Guanyin Temple, where the first difficulty officially began.

They were greeted by Elder Jin Chi, a follower of Guanyin. Sun Wukong knew the plot and knew that this old man coveted the colorful robes and conspired with the black bear demon.

But now it seems that he feels that this old guy is not simple. Using his golden eyes, he can see that this is not a mortal monk. It is clearly Mokajie, one of the Five Jiedis, in disguise.

The highest-ranking figures in Lingshan are the thirty-six Buddhas, followed by Bodhisattvas, Vajra, and Dharma Protectors.

The Five Jiedis are dharma protectors, all of whom are in the early stage of Daluo Jinxian.

According to the plot, Sun Wukong took out the colorful cassock to show off.

That night, Elder Jin Chi instigated the Black Bear Demon to steal the cassock, but was caught red-handed by Sun Wukong, and a fierce fight ensued between the two sides.

The Black Bear Demon is also in the early stage of the Golden Immortal. He has thick skin and flesh, and can withstand the golden cudgel without getting hurt.

Sun Wukong didn't want Guanyin to solve the problem and take away the merit of this problem, so he used the magic of heaven and earth to fight with the black bear monster.

The two fought fiercely. The magic of heaven and earth displayed by the Four Monkeys was the phantom of the Chaos Demon Ape, which brought with it a strong pressure and was quite powerful.

It wasn't long before the black bear demon fell into a disadvantage.

Elder Jin Chi was very anxious. Since the black bear demon could not defeat Sun Wukong, there was no need for Guanyin Bodhisattva to solve the problem. The merit of this problem would be taken away by Sun Wukong.

How to do.

Tang Seng also noticed something was wrong and kept following Elder Jin Chi so as not to give him any chance to cause trouble.

"Can you guys do it? Even if Lingshan and the demon tribe join forces, they can't do anything to Sun Wukong."

In heaven, the Jade Emperor laughed loudly.

Fuxi and Guanyin were both very upset. The black bear demon had thick skin and flesh, was extremely resistant to blows, and had immense strength. He was also in the early stage of the Golden Immortal Realm, so there was no way he could defeat Sun Wukong.

When Sun Wukong caused havoc in Heaven, he did not display such strong fighting power.

"It seems that during the past five hundred years, Monkey King has been suppressed under the Five Finger Mountain. Although he cannot absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to practice, he is comprehending the inherited magical powers and improving his combat effectiveness. We can no longer send Daluo Jinxian to cause trouble."

Taishang Laojun spoke.

This statement was agreed by everyone, and Fuxi, Xuandu and others hurriedly raised the issue again.

Guanyin is in an awkward situation, feeling embarrassed as to whether to go or not.

As the general manager of Journey to the West, the merit of this difficulty is a reward for her, but Sun Wukong can solve it, so there is no need for her to solve it. Even if she tries to solve it by force, the merit of this difficulty will not be given to her.

Buddhism and Taoism are not so easy to fool. When awakening, they can see the cause and effect. Who is Sun Wukong? He is one of the protagonists of Journey to the West and the darling of Buddhism and Taoism.

By the time the Buddha and Taoist sects find out that she has stolen Sun Wukong's merits, I'm afraid not only will they not give her the merits, they will also have to reward her with a few Buddha thunders.

Open robbery is not an option. We can only rely on whether Elder Jin Chi can be more helpful. If there are no difficulties, we can create some to give her a chance to take action.
