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

Chapter 389: The End of the Journey to the West
"That makes sense. If I had any reservations about this, I would not be worthy of being his opponent."

Sun Wukong nodded in agreement, his eyes becoming firm again.

"Although we still didn't beat him this time, we also gained a lot. Monkey Brother made a breakthrough, and we also indirectly killed the Jiuhua Buddhist and got some interest back from Lingshan." Zhu Bajie said.

"It's a great harvest, but Xiaobailong and I are the only ones getting beaten." Sha Seng said resentfully.

"I think you two should stay away next time. It seems like you won't be able to help much." The queen couldn't help laughing.

Sha Seng and Xiao Bailong were heartbroken and looked aggrieved.

In the Heavenly Palace, Lingxiao Palace, Houba was looking at the Haotian Mirror alone. Hearing her daughter's naughty words, she smiled dotingly. This girl always tells the truth.

Not long after, the Jade Emperor and others returned. The Jade Emperor personally invited Houba to move to Yaochi and hold a banquet.

"Greetings, Senior Houba." Yuan Hong stepped forward and saluted.

Liu'er Mihou and his companions hurried to catch up. They had already heard Yuan Hong talk about Houba.

"The disciples that Daoist Fellow Jinwu has accepted are indeed good. Today, I will teach you a secret technique that may help you recreate the style of the Chaos Demon Ape."

Houba nodded and waved his hand. Three rays of light floated towards the eyebrows of Liu'er Mihou, Wuzhiqi and Yuan Hong.

After receiving it, the three of them were surprised and delighted, and hurriedly expressed their gratitude. This secret method could allow their true spirits to merge temporarily.

When the four mischievous monkeys merge together, wouldn’t that be the Chaos Ape?

It’s hard to imagine how powerful the four monkeys would be if they combined. They might even be able to defeat the Saint and break Kong Xuan’s record.

I must find an opportunity to try it later.

When the banquet started, the happiest person was Yang Chan. In front of her uncles and aunts, she was still the little girl who could act coquettishly without restraint.

Compared to the bustle of heaven, Lingshan is shrouded in dark clouds.

"Damn it, what does the Jade Emperor want to do? Is he going to betray Daozu and join the Golden Crow Sect? The Heavenly Court and Lingshan are on the same side."

Miroku was furious.

"The Jade Emperor wants to suppress Lingshan and gain the right to speak. He is afraid that Lingshan will rise and suppress the Heavenly Court."

"The Journey to the West is about to end. Don't cause any trouble yet. Wait until Buddhism is revived and Lingshan is truly prosperous before you take revenge."

Tathagata narrowed his eyes and said.

As a conspirator, he knew the Jade Emperor's mind too well.

In Heaven, the banquet was over and the six-eared macaque and his companions returned to Penglai.

Ling Xiao was very satisfied when he saw the progress of several people's cultivation. They were almost becoming saints.

In fact, the only ones the three brothers need to worry about are Yang Chan and the Ten Golden Crows, who are not good enough to become saints.

Especially for Yang Chan, it is difficult to become a quasi-saint.

If the Ten Golden Crows can refine the holy marks, it will not be difficult for them to become saints. At least there is still a way.

But Yang Chan’s aptitude was not enough, and it was difficult for her to even become a quasi-saint, and it was useless to refine the holy marks.

The only way to attain enlightenment is to practice merit and virtue. Attaining enlightenment does not just mean acquiring merit, but also doing things that create great merit, gaining recognition from the Six Paths, and borrowing the power of the Six Paths to kill corpses. One can only wait and see if there will be opportunities to gain great merit in the future.

In the beginning, Nuwa gained great merit by creating human beings, and became a saint with the help of merit and the power of heaven.

At Lion Camel Ridge, the westward group continued on their journey after three months of rest.

Lingshan takes up half of the next thirty difficulties, and the Jade Emperor also put the ten difficulties in the bet with Sun Wukong at the end.

Sun Wukong fought almost all the way through.

Of the fifteen difficulties at Lingshan, the master and his disciples managed to get seven. This was because Lingshan was so shameless that it sent several quasi-saints to each difficulty.

The Jade Emperor was also shameless, sending Xuandu, Fuxi, the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit, the Holy Mother of the Turtle Spirit, Zhao Gongming, and other quasi-saints and sub-saints.

After the final statistics, Sun Wukong and others grabbed eighteen difficulties, Lingshan also had eighteen difficulties, the dragon clan took one difficulty, the underworld took one difficulty, the human clan took one difficulty, the Qilin clan took one difficulty, and the heavenly court got forty-one difficulties, just over half.

On this day, the master and his disciples arrived at Mount Lingshan. Tathagata was named Buddha, Tang Seng was named Sandalwood Merit Buddha, Sun Wukong was named Fighting and Victory Buddha, Zhu Bajie was the Altar Purifier, Sha Seng was named Arhat, but the little white dragon did not have any destiny, so he was not named.

Needless to say, Lingshan is not qualified to be crowned as the queen.

The consecration of the Buddha was completed, the journey to the West was fulfilled, the ancient world was shaken, Buddhism was revived, and the golden Buddha light shone brightly in the West.

Another one was revived, and the spiritual energy of the ancient times began to become rich again. At the same time, Buddhism bestowed merits.

The Jade Emperor suddenly took action and took away all the merits except those bestowed on Sun Wukong and others.

"As agreed, we will go to Heaven to divide the division in three days."

The Jade Emperor left a few words and went away.

The Buddhas had nothing to say. After all, it had been agreed before that it would be divided among the human race’s gods.

Although he had gained merit, Tang Seng was not in a hurry to absorb it.

Sun Wukong and the others absorbed it all. Sun Wukong gained the most merit. With the blessing of merit, he comprehended the laws at a very fast speed and directly broke through to the late stage of quasi-saint, catching up with Yang Jian.

Zhu Bajie also successfully comprehended the law of devouring, breaking through to the peak of the early quasi-saint stage and almost returning to his heyday. Sha Seng soared all the way to the peak of the Daluo Golden Immortal, and Xiao Bailong also gained some merits and broke through to the Daluo Golden Immortal.

After absorbing the merits, the master and his disciples looked at the Buddhas of Lingshan with cold faces.

Tang Seng spoke first: "Give me back my body."

Of course, the Buddhas understood what Tang Seng meant. Tang Seng wanted to get back his true form, the six-winged golden cicada.

"I can return your true body to you, but you must stay in Lingshan."

Of course the Buddhas didn't want to let Tang Seng leave.

Now that the Journey to the West is over, they can actually get rid of the monk, but Tang Seng has Houba as his mother-in-law, so they dare not move.

What is making things difficult for them now is that Tang Seng will definitely leave Lingshan. Tang Seng is the one destined to succeed in the Journey to the West and is protected by Buddhism. If he leaves Lingshan, he will take away a lot of Buddhism's luck, which they cannot accept.

Including Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng, they all have a destiny and are protected by Buddhism. If they leave, they will take away the luck of Buddhism.

The best way is to keep Tang Seng. As long as Tang Seng stays, Sun Wukong and his two brothers will definitely follow.

"We can allow you to marry the queen," Miroku added.

"So, I have to thank you for your gift?" Tang Seng looked at the Buddhas sarcastically.

The Buddhas were embarrassed. The other party now had a stronger backer than Lingshan Mountain, so why did he need their permission?

But they couldn't think of any other reason to keep him.

One side was unwilling and the other side refused to give in, so the situation became deadlocked.

At this moment, the mountain protection formation of Lingshan was violently broken, and Houba forced his way in, looking at the queen and Tang Seng tenderly: "Let's go, mother is here to take you home."

"Mother, they won't return my real body to me." Tang Seng immediately changed his expression and complained aggrievedly.

The corners of the Buddhas' mouth twitched. Damn it, have some shame. You are a Buddha in nature, so don't call me mother so easily.

"Humph, return my son-in-law's true body to me, or I will destroy Lingshan Mountain."

Houba was stunned, and the powerful pressure was directed towards the Buddhas, making them unable to breathe.

Unable to twist the thigh with the arm, Tathagata had no choice but to compromise. He waved his hand in the air and took out Tang Seng's real body, the six-winged golden cicada, from the Lingjiu Cave in the Great Snow Mountain.
