Black Myth: Journey to the West: Simulate becoming an immortal!

Chapter 128: Thousands of reincarnations, billions of corpses!
"Humph"

Juanlian looked at Chen Xi sinking into the Weak Water indifferently and snorted coldly.

He swallowed Mu Zha's skin, and his appearance changed accordingly.

An inexplicable aura spread, and the weak water surged endlessly.

Gradually, the original toad spirit became extremely ferocious.

He has fluffy red hair and two round eyes that are as bright as lamps.

The face is neither black nor blue, and the voice is like thunder and drum of an old dragon.

A faint divine aura lingered around his body, transforming into a fairy belt.

He picked up the fragments of the glass cup and pieced them together on the colorful glass cup.

In an instant, the colorful glass lamps glowed brightly!
The weak water that was surging around seemed to have received an order and stopped flowing recklessly.

The waves gradually slowed down and the water became calmer.

Juanlian looked at the perfect colorful glass lamp and sighed slightly.

"Finally. After all these years."

"But even if I can put the Glazed Lamp back together, I may not be able to atone for my sins and get my job back."

And just as He was feeling sentimental and reminiscing about the past!
The waves in the distance were calm, but the whirlpool that was gradually disappearing suddenly burst into splashes of water all over the sky!

A tall stone demon broke free from it.

The incomparable terrifying demonic energy spread wildly and roared incessantly!
"You're just a piece of shit! Keep fighting your grandfather! Don't play these kinds of tricks!"

"Eh? Where's the crazy monk? Where's the toad?"

"Hey! That ugly thing with blue skin and red hair over there, do you see them?"

"Hmm? How did the glass cups end up in your ugly hands? What did you do to them?"

Shi Gandang's words made Juanlian's brows furrowed and veins bulged.

However, now that his long-cherished wish had been fulfilled, Juanlian, who was in a good mood, did not react immediately.

He suppressed his anger and yelled.

"You ungrateful stone! Mu Zha is dead, and the other two things you mentioned are gone too!"

"Get out of here right now! I'm in a good mood today and I can spare your life!"

Shi GanDang became furious when he heard this.

Since it was born, no one has dared to talk to it like this!

"What a big tone! Then let me see what you can do, ugly thing!"

"I will not let you know how powerful your grandfather is until I grind you into a paste!"

Shi GanDang roared loudly, showing no fear at all, and rushed towards the curtain.

When Juanlian heard Shi GanDang's shouting and cursing, the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed, and the terrifying murderous intent quickly spread.

He raised the colorful glass cup, and strands of weak water immediately floated out.

Weak water coiled around the dragon bone staff, and a crescent moon appeared immediately.

In the blink of an eye, it turned into a half-moon shovel!

He turned his hand casually, and the dance made a whistling sound.

"You stubborn stone head, I will use you today to stretch your muscles."

"I don't need to use my magical powers to bully you. I just want to teach you how good my martial arts are!"

"I will smash you into pieces, and then I will use you as the threshold of my cave, for thousands of people to step on and trample on!"

Although Juanlian had not used his martial arts for a long time, he did not take Shi Gan Dang seriously.

The weak water floated and rolled up its body, and it fought with the stone talisman between the waves!
The two sides fought in a group, fighting back and forth.

The one is the strange stone refined in the mountains, and this one is the mighty general in Lingxiao Palace!
The magic staff that subdues demons is holding the head wheel, and this stubborn stone has turned into a spirit and is as hard as iron!

The leaping waves shake the mountains and rivers, and the waves cause chaos in the world.

It's as evil as Tai Sui hitting the flagpole, and as disastrous as the gate of death lifting the treasure canopy.

The magic staff in Juanlian's hand created a trail of afterimages.

The shovel blade collided with Shi Gan Dang's body, sparks flew!

"What a brute force! What a tough shell!"

"Unfortunately, if you face me, you will just die!"

"Lingxiao Palace, General Rolling Up the Curtain, today, we will exorcise the demons and monsters!"

The rolling-curtain staff was wielded in a methodical manner, causing stone chips to fall off Shi Gan Dang's body.

The stone talisman was too huge, and even with a huge strength, it would be difficult to hurt the curtain-juan general.

After more than thirty rounds, Shi Gandang was almost suffocated by the rolling curtain.

For a moment, all he could do was passively take the beating.

Even its extremely tough body was scratched with many scratches, making it look particularly ugly!

You know, when it was blown by the Yellow Wind Monster's Samadhi Divine Wind, it did not suffer much damage.

Shi Gandang finally couldn't bear it anymore and pounced forward to kill him.

However, Juanlian casually raised his magic staff and dodged it by leaning sideways.

Only Shi Gan Dang, who had rushed out, was left, falling with water all over his face, looking extremely angry!
"You blue-skinned filthy bastard! How dare you tease your grandfather like this!"

Shi GanDang was so angry that he was furious, with a bit of the power of Asura.

It stood up, wanting only to crush the blue-skinned creature in front of it to death.

"Why, you are inferior to others in stone skills, and you still want to show off your verbal skills!"

"I will smash you to pieces today, and sacrifice this weapon I just got in my hands!"

Juanlian laughed, thinking that Shi Gandang was just shouting.

He picked up the staff and walked along with the tide.

Shi Gandang knew that with his current strength, he was afraid that he would be no match for this blue-skinned guy.

So, it got angry and immediately took out the Crouching Tiger Stone!
As a strange stone, Crouching Tiger Stone is exactly the same as this one.

However, this object is too hard and difficult to shape, making it inconvenient to use as a weapon.

Now is the time to die!

The next moment, Shi Gandang actually swallowed the Crouching Tiger Stone with nine holes whole!

The Crouching Tiger Stone contains the spirit of stone.

As soon as it entered the body, the evil spirit of Shi Gan Dang filled the air, and pieces of rock kept rising and falling.

In an instant, its rough skin faded away, and it looked brighter and shinier.

Faintly, an extremely terrifying feeling of oppression enveloped the surroundings.

When Juanlian saw this scene, he grinned, with endless murderous intent surging in his eyes.

"I went too far. I didn't expect this guy to have such a treasure on him."

"But now I hold the colored glass cup in my hand, and the three thousand weak waters can be mobilized at will."

"Even if you are a great demon, you will have to die with hatred in this 800-li Flowing Sand River!"

The colorful glass cup in Juanlian's hand emits a brilliant glow.

The originally calm Quicksand River surged again, causing huge waves!
The momentum of the Boundless Weak Water is several times stronger than when Mu Zha was in charge!
……

Chen Xi was in the Weak Water, sinking continuously.

Countless noisy sounds rang in his ears one after another.

I tried the Heart Sutra, but it didn't help.

Heavy, unimaginably heavy!

Chen Xi's vision gradually became blurred and he had difficulty breathing.

All light, all colors, are slowly returning to darkness.

And just before Chen Xi was about to close his eyes forever.
He seemed to have seen something.
"what is that?"

A dying person has slow thinking.

Chen Xi opened his eyes slightly, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

He never imagined that before he died, he would see such a scene that would break his heart and make him unable to control himself!
Countless bodies sank to the bottom of the river.

Chen Xi, with scars on his face, was torn to pieces by a chariot.

Chen Xi, who was stabbed six times with three knives, fell to the bottom of the river.

There was Chen Xi, whose skin was peeled off and his tendons were pulled out, leaving only a lump of rotten meat.

There was Chen Xi who was eaten alive, leaving only piles of bones.

Obviously, these Chen Xi were dead beyond recognition, but he could still recognize that this was himself!

Many of them wore monk robes, many wore cloth clothes, and some wore brocade clothes and armor...

Creatures of all shapes and sizes float in the deepest part of the Weak Water.

This is a place that even Mu Zha dares not set foot in.

The weak water here, and the obsession of all living beings, is enough to drive people completely crazy just by getting close to it!
The swollen, rotten, maggot-infested corpses were stacked up layer upon layer, interweaving together to form a continuous mountain range!

Great horror!
Unimaginable horror!
Chen Xi trembled inexplicably and his eyelids gradually became heavy.

He landed on the pile of corpses he had created, without feeling the slightest bit of disobedience. It was as if he was supposed to lie at the bottom of the water, becoming part of the pile of corpses that sank here.
Confused and noisy.

Even if Chen Xi has lost his breath, he can still hear the cries of all living beings' obsession!
“Endless delicacies from the mountains and the sea, fine wine and delicious food!”

"I don't want to carry the bag anymore. I want to be as rich and prosperous as the master!"

"Qinglang, why did you leave me? I miss you so much..."

"Hehe, this batch of pills will definitely work! It will permanently solidify your divine form!"

"There is so much knowledge in the world. I wish I had endless time to see it all..."

"Jiangshan! This is my Jiangshan!"

When Chen Xi was previously contaminated by the Weak Water, the obsessions he endured were no more than a few hundred or a thousand.

And now, he is in the deepest part of the Quicksand River. How terrifying is the obsession he has to endure?
You know, this is the place where all living beings’ obsessions were overturned after the Glazed Lamp was broken!

The obsession contained therein is more than tens of billions, hundreds of billions, or even trillions!
As vast as the sea of ​​smoke, endless.

These obsessions were like insects, gnawing and biting at Chen Xi's thoughts.

Fear grew in Chen Xi's heart, but it dissipated in an instant, and he was overwhelmed by endless obsession.

Chen Xi only felt that every person at the bottom of the river was himself.

I am constantly thirsting and constantly sinking to the bottom of the river.

It seemed as if this was his destined destination.

who am I?
Am I them?

Are they me?

"No! I want to obtain the true scriptures! I want to return home in glory! To Lingshan!"

Chen Xi was floating in endless obsession, but a voice suddenly became clear in his mind.

As the sound echoed, various scenes appeared before my eyes.

I am the young master of a distinguished family.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. My father chose the wrong side and was exiled, and our noble family fell into decline overnight.

My mother sent me to the temple crying, and gave her only remaining jewelry to the abbot, asking him to take care of me.

I studied the scriptures diligently, and relying on my intelligence, I even earned the reputation of being an eminent monk.

But in my heart, there are only the scenes of my childhood and the crying faces of my parents, which can never be erased.

At the grand meeting organized by the King of Tang, I was chosen by the Bodhisattva and was given the mission to obtain the true scriptures.

The Bodhisattva said, this is my destiny.

The King of Tang promised that if I could obtain the true scriptures and return, all his requests would be granted, so I naturally agreed.

I took a dozen followers with me, prepared horses and dry food, and set off, but beside the Quicksand River, I encountered a blue-skinned, red-haired monster.

Without asking why, it heard that I was going to Lingshan to seek scriptures, so it beat me to death with a stick and threw me into the river...

I'm not willing to give in!

My parents were never found and we will never see each other again!
I haven't reached the sacred mountain yet, but I died on the way!

I am a beggar.
I am going to Lingshan to obtain the true scriptures!

The Bodhisattva promised me that after I come back, I can live in the Western Paradise with the old monk and never have to worry about food and drink.

I have followed an old monk to beg for food since I was a child. The old monk said he was begging for alms and always gave me half of the portion in his bowl.

After a winter, the old monk could not survive and died.

After that, I never met anyone who was willing to share half of the food in his bowl with me.

The Bodhisattva came and sprinkled my nectar, and my whole body felt refreshed and full of energy.

He said, going to Lingshan and obtaining the true scriptures is my destiny.

I asked, if we go to Lingshan and obtain the true scriptures, can we save the old monk?

The Bodhisattva agreed, and I was carried by the horse and set off.

Along the way, I encountered a man-eating insect that abandoned its horse and ran away.

I have encountered a seductive female demon and sneaked away.

It wasn't until I reached the 800-li Quicksand River that I met a blue-skinned monster.

It had a face full of anger, and when it saw the monk's robe on me, it flew over and bit my head to pieces.

I am a bandit. I want to go to Lingshan to seek the true scriptures in order to survive!
I am a scholar. I want to go to Lingshan to seek the true scriptures in order to know the truth.

I am a monk. I want to go to Lingshan to seek the true scriptures for the benefit of all living beings.

I am a general. I am going to Lingshan to seek the true scriptures for the emperor's kindness.

Lingshan, the true scripture, destiny...

In Chen Xi's mind, the echoing voices of thousands of obsessions became increasingly faint...

For a moment, only those who had failed to complete their journey and those who had died on the way were left, mumbling words of unwillingness.

The obsessions of the people who seek scriptures have different causes, but they are all entangled in the sacred mountain and the true scriptures...

They have been greedy and angry, foolish, arrogant and doubtful.

In order to reach Lingshan, they exhausted all their efforts and kept moving forward, but in the end, they all collapsed here.

Everything they had was gone with the wind, leaving only their obsession hidden deep in the weak water, difficult to dissipate.

In Chen Xi's mind, all kinds of obsessions of those who seek scriptures kept asking him questions.

Why do you want to go to Lingshan?

Why do you want to obtain the true scriptures?

"I want to go and see if there is any way to go home."

Yes, I also want to obtain the true scriptures, rebuild my family, and return home in glory.

The young master, whose appearance back then could be vaguely seen, nodded.

"Actually, I also want to survive."

Yes, I am the same, otherwise the officials will kill me!

A man with a scar on his face nodded slowly in agreement.

"No! I still want to find the truth. Lingshan has the secret I desire."

Indeed, there is great wisdom and great mysteries in the scriptures that have never been revealed.

A young scholar with a handsome face and a thin figure nodded slowly when he heard this.

"That's not right! I also want to try and see if I can make this demonic world a better place."

Yes, that’s what I think too.

An old monk nodded slowly. His beard was gray, but one could vaguely see the shadow of Chen Xi when he was young.

"At first I just wanted to go home, but then I gave up"

"I think it's not bad to live like this. It's okay to become a demon. As long as I have power and can live a peaceful life, that's fine."

"But... I met a strange toad."

"Its persistence gave me an idea to try to find a goal that I can be persistent about."

"Even if it's just an illusory delusion, it can make me feel that my life has some meaning in this turbid world."

"Then I met some weird demons."

"Guess what? They still have some kindness left in them!"

"So I want to see if there is still some justice in this demonic and corrupt world?"

"Now I have encountered a lot and know a lot."

"I have encountered some monsters that look like humans, and in a dream, I saw people who were even more evil than monsters."

"I don't know where this road will lead to, and I don't know whether Lingshan has the true scriptures and secrets I desire."

"But the experiences along the way and all the 'people' I met have tied me closely to this journey to the West."

"Even though there are countless monsters ahead, even though there are still unknown taboos and great terrors in this world."

"Even until the end, I am still a puppet played by fate."

"I don't want to give up this path, which may change something in this world."

"It's just a journey, but it's full of disasters..."

"I don't want to, and I don't want to, let down myself for who I am today, and those who once expected me to reach the end."

"This is not the will of the gods, nor is it manipulated by a dark force. This is the path I chose myself, the destiny I want to fulfill!"

The Chen Xis, whose faces were originally blurry, gradually solidified and their faces became clearer.

They laugh or cry, are happy or sad.

Joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness are all present in all living beings.

At this moment, they all looked at Chen Xi, nodded with a smile, and clasped their hands together.

"I have had greed, anger, and delusion, so what?"

"It's just human nature after all."

"Go, pilgrim."

"The road ahead is not over yet, go and continue to fulfill your destiny!"
