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

Chapter 229 Dou Lao Bao Gao, Black Water True Dragon! (6k!)
"Not these?"

Chen Xi was stunned when he heard this.

As far as he knows, there is nothing on him that would be familiar to the Rooster except things related to the Monkey, Monkey, and Dog, right?

No, that's not right...it seems like there really is one?
Chen Xi raised his eyebrows and took out a piece of embroidered yellow silk from his arms.

But on the brocade yellow silk, the deity was clearly visible.

Three eyes, four heads, eight arms...

He is dressed in a robe made of sky-blue cloud brocade, holding the sun and the moon in his hands, a bow and arrow, a bell, a pestle, a needle and a rope to subdue demons, and has a solemn tassel.

The air is filled with purple mist and the golden lotus is shining.

This kind of scene had never happened before in Baoxiang Kingdom. Chen Xi didn't even know when the embroidered yellow silk became like this.

He thought about it carefully, and a light of wisdom rose behind his head.

"Could it be because of the 'Three Pure Ones'..."

Chen Xi murmured to himself, as if thinking about something.

This had never happened before when he, in the human skin paper, met the Rooster.

When Rooster saw him at that time, he did not talk about the embroidered yellow silk.

This means that the change in Jinxiu Huanghuajuan must be due to something he did this time, which triggered the change.

And what did he do this time?

It was nothing more than using his clairvoyance to spy on the 'Three Pure Ones' of Chechi Country.

Could it be that at that time, without his knowledge, the 'Three Pure Ones' of Chechi Kingdom did something?

So that it caused the brocade yellow flowered silk to change and protected him from the disaster?
Relying on the light of wisdom and following the destiny of heaven, Chen Xi guessed the cause and effect to be almost correct.

The supreme immortal fetus gave him the power to transcend the Three Realms and be beyond the Five Elements.

In this case, it is assisted by the wisdom light of the Vairocana Five Buddha Crown.

Chen Xi actually gained some knowledge and was able to glimpse the destiny of the world and deduce and calculate cause and effect like those great masters with supernatural powers.

This was in stark contrast to his previous situation when he was trapped in the corrupt world and blinded by the obstacles of knowledge and perception.

Of course, cause and effect and fate are not something that ordinary people can control.

With Chen Xi's current level of cultivation, he could only guess the cause of the incident when he was inspired or had a good idea...

"this!"

"The twelve Yuan Chen, the six Dings and six Jias, the zodiac sign of the Rooster, pay homage to the Lord of the Brahma Qi Dou Mu in the sky!"

When Miss Ji saw the appearance of the deity on the embroidered yellow silk, her face suddenly changed and she was terrified.

She quickly bowed her head and kowtowed to Chen Xi, who was holding a piece of brocade yellow silk.

From her extremely excited tone, one can tell how excited and delighted Miss Ji is at this moment.

These six Dings and six Jias came down to the human world in compliance with the order of Dou Mu.

However, the world changed drastically, the gods and Buddhas disappeared, there was no news from the heaven, and there was no hope of reporting on the job.

Now that she can see the sacred face of Dou Mu and has the hope of returning to heaven to report on her work, how can Miss Ji not be excited?
"Forehead……"

Chen Xi looked at the motionless piece of brocade yellow flowered silk, and then looked at Miss Ji who was bowing towards him.

For a moment, he looked strange and embarrassed.

If someone who didn’t know saw this scene, they would probably think that the monk was bullying a chicken!
"Don't worship Rooster. The Dou Mu you mentioned is not here."

"This is just a fairy treasure I got from Lishan Laomu."

Chen Xi shook his head and spoke.

He had guessed about the embroidered yellow silk before, and now after seeing Youji's performance, he was completely certain that this thing was definitely Dou Lao's trick.

At that time, the Old Mother of Lishan acted strangely in every way. Although she tried to stop him from going west, she was actually helping him in every way.

And this embroidered yellow silk, although seemingly a trophy, was more like something that was specially given to him by the Mother of Mount Lishan, or rather, Dou Mu.

The purpose of this is still unknown, but from the current perspective, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing.

"My benefactor, you are wrong."

Upon hearing this, Miss Chicken stood up respectfully.

At this moment, her face was full of respect, contrary to her previous appearance, and she looked quite serious.

"When the benefactor holds the Dou Mu Treasure Edict, it is as if the Dou Mu is here in person. How can you say that the Dou Mu is not here?"

"Dou Lao Bao Gao?"

After hearing this, Chen Xi couldn't help but look at the embroidered yellow silk.

"Don't you know, benefactor?"

Miss Chicken tilted her head, seeming quite surprised.

"The Dou Mu Treasure Edict, with the image of the Dou Mu inscribed on it."

"Whenever you see the precious edict, it is like the presence of Dou Mu herself."

"If you don't have a great affinity with Dou Mu, you can't hold on to it."

"Since the benefactor holds the precious edict, he must be the man I'm looking for!"

Miss Ji shook her head and talked eloquently, and she actually guessed Chen Xi's identity just by looking at the embroidered yellow silk.

You have to know that the Monkey and the Dog only recognized Chen Xi because he exposed himself.

"Great fate..."

Chen Xi frowned and couldn't help but ask back.

"But what does this have to do with me being the man of destiny?"

When Miss Chicken heard this, she knew that she had guessed right.

She giggled, quite pleased with herself.

"My benefactor, you are so stupid!"

"Nowadays, demons and devils are everywhere in this world. Gods and Buddhas have disappeared. There are only demons and devils."

"Dou Lao is so noble, how could she just give the precious edict to the demons casually?"

"The only person who can hold this precious edict other than Dou Mu is the person Dou Mu wants us to find, right?"

"Everything in the world has its destiny. It is predestined."

"Since my benefactor has obtained the precious edict, it must have been arranged by Dou Lao..."

Chen Xi frowned when he heard what Miss Ji said.

He understood it in his heart, but felt quite uncomfortable about it.

Chen Xi has seen a lot of dirty tricks and harm along the way.

Now, since he started at the opera house, he has been taken care of by this Dou Lao for no reason at all.

Now he has the emperor's imperial edict, which is like the emperor's decree, and seeing it is like seeing him in person.

Such a huge benefit was really too much for him to handle.

Chen Xi shook his head and suppressed his thoughts for the time being.

Anyway, I can't see any harm at the moment. So instead of thinking too much, I might as well consider the present carefully.

In a blink of an eye, a stick of incense passed.

Chen Xi had a good chat with Miss Ji.

Miss Chicken also told the story of why she was trapped here, just like the human skin paper simulation.

Compared to the simulation, Miss Ji became obviously more enthusiastic after learning that Chen Xi was the destined man.

Chen Xi listened to Miss Chicken chirping and talking non-stop, and couldn't help but feel a headache for a moment.

Seeing Miss Ji trying to make small talk about all the things she had seen and heard, as well as all the strange and bizarre things that had happened to her during her time on earth, he could not help but quickly wave his hand to interrupt her.

"You, you, have you forgotten Manjusri Bodhisattva and are still trapped in the well, being boiled by the fire?"

"We have been delayed here for so long, maybe the Bodhisattva Manjusri will be burned to death by Red Boy."

"For now, let's think of a way to rescue Manjusri Bodhisattva..."

Chen Xi tried hard to get the topic back on track.

When Miss Ji heard this, she suddenly remembered this matter.

She suddenly looked anxious and spoke out in annoyance.

"Oh, it's all my fault. I dragged my benefactor into talking so much nonsense."

"I almost forgot, Manjusri is still trapped."

"No, I have to set off quickly to find the Dragon King of the Black Water River."

"Manjusri Bodhisattva is also my savior. I cannot let him die like this..."

After Miss Chicken finished speaking, she wanted to fly away in a hurry.

Chen Xi felt helpless when he saw this and called out to her.

"With your skills that are not even as good as those of a little demon, how can you save the Bodhisattva if you act so recklessly?"

"I'm afraid he'll be eaten by the little demons on the road before he even reaches the Black Water River."

Chen Xi shook his head, which made Miss Ji feel like crying but without tears.

"That's all..."

"I have something to ask Manjusri Bodhisattva."

"Now, I will go with you."

"But I have to tell you in advance that you have to be obedient on the way and don't cause any trouble for me."

When Miss Ji heard that Chen Xi wanted to join her in saving the Bodhisattva, she was immediately overjoyed.

The original look of wanting to cry but having no tears turned into excitement.

She nodded frantically and spoke quickly.

"Yes, yes, benefactor, you are indeed a good person!"

"Don't worry, benefactor. I will definitely obey you."

"Even if the benefactor doesn't say anything, with Dou Lao's edict alone, the stars will follow me and no one dares to disobey. How dare I cause trouble..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xi looked at Miss Chicken, who was cross-eyed and looked quite intelligent, and immediately shook his head without comment.

"Oh, I forgot to ask you..."

"Why are you so sure that once you reach the Black Water River, you can bring in reinforcements to put out the fire in the Black Chicken Kingdom?"

He looked puzzled and asked a question that he had never asked before.

"Just now you said you wanted to go to the Blackwater River to get help..."

"But why are you so sure that you can get help and put out the fire once you get there?"

"That Red Boy's Samadhi True Fire is no joke."

"Does a Blackwater River Dragon King, whose background is unknown, really have that ability?"

"Don't let us go there and find nothing there, wasting our time."

Chen Xi's words did not mean that he did not trust Miss Ji.

Rather, its previous performance seemed unreliable and easy to be deceived.

The Samadhi True Fire was so powerful that it caused her eyes to be blinded by the black smoke and she flew to the wrong place, which was understandable.

But she would talk incessantly whenever she saw a demon, telling everything and complaining about everything, so it's no wonder that the Dog called her a silly woman.

In this case, it is possible that the information Miss Ji got was deceived by other little demons.

In today's demon-ridden world, it is very rare to find someone who is capable of dealing with the Samadhi True Fire.

What's more, even if the Black Water River Dragon King has this ability, why would he help them?
In this evil and corrupt world, only interests can move people's hearts.

And although he is called the Dragon King, isn’t he actually a demon?

In this situation, unless there are tangible benefits, it is really wishful thinking to expect a demon to risk his life to fight with Red Boy.

However, in response to Chen Xi's questions, Miss Ji seemed quite confident.

She cleared her throat and then started talking.

"My benefactor, you don't know something!"

"As far as I know, the Dragon King living in the Black Water River must be a real dragon."

"In the past, due to the national customs of the Black Chicken Country, there were often many little demons traveling back and forth, running around."

"So the little demons there are very well-informed." "The Black Water River incident is no longer a secret."

"It is said that a long time ago, the Black Water River was not called the Black Water River, and the water was crystal clear."

"Later, something from the sky fell into the Black Water River, which made the water so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of you."

"But since then, the spiritual essence of the Blackwater River has become extremely rich, and there is even a river god living there. It is no longer like an ordinary place."

"After the great changes in the world and the demons and monsters, many monsters wanted to go down to the river to search for treasures, but they all died tragically in the river, causing the place to become a dangerous place that people would turn pale at the mention of."

"Until a few years ago, a real dragon moved into the Black Water River, took the initiative to calm the river and purify the water, and gathered many aquatic creatures."

"The abnormal situation in the Blackwater River has gradually subsided."

"The Dragon King of the Black Water River is totally different from other big demons who plunder and bully smaller demons."

"On the contrary, the Dragon King would even take the initiative to restrain his minions and generals, and never cause trouble."

"I have seen the world before. The Black Water River Dragon King has a strict style and discipline, which is quite similar to the style of the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas."

"I think the Dragon King must be from the Four Seas Dragon Clan. If there is no such evidence, and the situation is urgent, I would never dare to go to the Black Water River alone to ask for help."

After listening to Miss Ji's story about the secret of the Black Water River, Chen Xi couldn't help but show a strange look on his face.

Real dragon?

If it was a real dragon, why would it come to the Black Water River and take the initiative to do the hard work of purifying water?
Chen Xi had been with the Dragon King for a long time, and through what he saw and heard, he naturally had a lot of understanding of the habits of dragons.

Dragons are extraordinary creatures, often born with pride and arrogance.

I like freedom the most, being unrestrained, soaring across the sky, and I hate being bound...

If there was no important secret, how could a real dragon lower himself and take up residence in the Black Water River?

Could it be that it has something to do with the object that fell from the sky?
Chen Xi's thoughts wandered, and he tried to use the light of wisdom to guess the cause.

However, after all my random thoughts, I am still confused.

But it doesn’t matter!
If we take a look at the Black Water River now, won't it become clear?

Chen Xi's mind moved and he turned to look towards the west.

clairvoyance!
The glazed light is so bright that you can see the scenery along the way for thousands of miles!
In an instant, a long river over a hundred miles wide, with rolling waves and dark black water, suddenly came into Chen Xi's sight.

It can be said that...

Layer upon layer of thick waves turned into black water, and layer upon layer of muddy waves rolled up black oil.

When viewed from close up, one cannot see human figures; when viewed from far away, it is difficult to identify the shapes of trees.

The water foam floats up like accumulated charcoal, and the waves rise up like turning coal.

Cows and sheep don’t drink because they think it’s dark, and crows and magpies don’t fly because they fear it’s too far away.

There are lakes and rivers all over the world, and there are many streams, marshes and caves in the world.

Everyone has their own meeting places in life, who has seen the Black Water River in the West!

The Black Water River is rich in spiritual energy, with waves splashing and bursts of mist and black smoke rising.

The surging momentum is like the water from the four seas pouring back and the three rivers and five lakes pouring out.

"What a great Black Water River! It's not inferior to the 800-li Quicksand River at all."

Chen Xi couldn't help but murmur, causing Miss Ji to look at him sideways.

With his clairvoyance, he saw many wonders that were invisible to the naked eye.

But there seemed to be a real dragon circling in the Black Water River.

Its body emits rosy glow, and it hides and cruises, stirring up water vapor in all directions and driving thunder, wind and clouds.

The shrimp soldiers and crab generals in the water are wearing armor and carrying weapons.

The formation is neat and orderly, with military flags and orders!
Looking at the appearance, it seems like some war is about to start.

On the black background with gold edges, there was a faint embroidery of yellow brocade characters.

敖！
In an instant, Chen Xi's heart was shocked, and all kinds of guesses emerged in his mind.

At the same time, in the inner world...

The weak and listless Dragon King on the Coiled Dragon Pillar couldn't help but open his tightly closed eyes a little.

But after a moment, it closed again because it was too weak.

The aura of a true dragon, the flag with the character Ao on it!

Could it really be the Four Seas Dragon Clan...

Is it the little crocodile in Journey to the West?

No, that's not right. The appearance doesn't seem to match...

After some thought, Chen Xi came up with an idea in his mind.

If it really is the Dragon Clan of the Four Seas, maybe we can actually try to get some reinforcements.

The Dragon King in his body is suspected to have a great connection with the Little White Dragon.

And who is Xiaobailong?

The third prince of the Dragon King of the West Sea!

And now, in the Black Water River, there happens to be a real dragon that may be from the Four Seas Dragon Clan.

Is this really a coincidence, or is it a plan arranged by some existence?

In any case, just take a look and you will understand.

But before that, Miss Chicken has to be settled down.

If I bring Miss Chicken with me and unfortunately meet Red Boy on the road, it will be difficult to protect her.

When Chen Xi thought of this, he immediately glanced at Miss Ji.

He opened his mouth and wanted to tell her the location of the capital of Baoxiang Kingdom.

Unexpectedly, Miss Ji tilted her head and actually saw what Chen Xi was thinking.

She shook her head and spoke out.

"My benefactor, if you go there to ask for help, the Dragon King may not agree."

"I ask myself, among all the immortals and gods in the heavens and among the dragons of the four seas, I can still have a say."

"They are the ones who make the clouds and the rain, and I am the one who makes the dawn. There is always a sense of camaraderie between us."

"If you take me with you, I will definitely be able to help you and won't be a hindrance..."

After hearing what Miss Ji said, Chen Xi nodded slightly.

The Monkey and the Dog once said that the Six Dings and Six Jias never eat vegetarian food and each has his own strengths!
Although Miss Chicken, as a Rooster, looks silly, she must have some abilities to be able to survive in this evil world.

If he wanted to ask the real dragon to subdue the demon at that time, he would naturally need a reason.

Taking her with me this time might really help...

Thinking of this, Chen Xi no longer hesitated.

"Well, then follow me. Remember to follow closely..."

As soon as he finished speaking, lotus flowers bloomed with every step he took, and he walked out of the Lotus Cave.

When Miss Chicken saw this, she was immediately delighted.

She flapped her wings quickly and tried hard to catch up with Chen Xi.

However, Chen Xi was not in a hurry to leave at this time.

He was hanging above the flat-topped mountain, and as soon as he thought about it, his magical power of generating light spontaneously emerged.

In an instant, colorful rays of light, glazed Buddha light, and wisdom light all bloomed together.

Pingdingshan, which was originally in darkness, suddenly became as bright as day.

At the same time, balls of karmic fire fell from the sky.

Those demons who used to act arrogantly and self-proclaimed superior were all turned into ashes under this karmic fire.

Those little demons who had suffered from oppression and were in agony were all stunned and stood there in a daze when they saw this scene.

And at this moment, Chen Xi's voice resounded throughout the world.

The lingering sound echoes endlessly!
"The delicate ghost and the clever bug are dead. If you are oppressed again in the future, just clench your fists and shout "Buddha Lord". If I hear you, I will come to save you."

"There is a pure land in the east, called the Kingdom of Precious Elephants. If you want to settle down, you can go east."

When the little demons heard this, they woke up from their dream.

They were all filled with tears of gratitude and ecstasy. They called out "Buddha" and kowtowed uncontrollably.

But Chen Xi had already finished his business and left, taking Miss Ji with him, disappearing into the vast mountains.

……

"Hey, benefactor, look, the Black Water River is ahead!"

Miss Chicken jumped and danced, looking forward excitedly.

"finally……"

Chen Xi, who was troubled by this, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this, and a look of relief appeared on his face.

Along the way, Miss Chicken was so talkative!
He had never imagined that there was someone who could talk nonstop for hours!
Fortunately, Miss Ji was quite familiar with the roads and the many hills with monsters along the way, and she could identify the directions.

This was of great help to them when they took a detour to avoid the Kingdom of Black Chicken.

Otherwise, Chen Xi would have abandoned Miss Ji and sent her to Baoxiang Kingdom long ago.

clairvoyance!
Chen Xi collected his thoughts and turned to look forward, his eyes gleaming with a glassy light.

I saw the rolling waves of the Black Water River, and countless shrimp soldiers, crab generals, fish, snakes and reptiles, wearing armor and holding weapons, ready for battle.

The war drums are beating, the bugles are blowing, the flags are fluttering, it looks like they are about to go to war!
"Could it be that the Black Water River Dragon King knew we were coming and set up the battle in advance?"

When Chen Xi saw this scene, he immediately started to wonder.

Thinking back on his journey, he always encountered various demonic plots, disasters and murderous intentions.

Maybe the Dragon King of the Black Water River also wants to taste the flesh of this man destined to be his.

But as he looked carefully, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"It seems I'm overthinking..."

But on the other side of the river, there also stood a group of strange monsters wearing armor and engraving the Eight Diagrams.

These demons looked unfriendly, and their limbs and flesh showed abnormalities.

However, these abnormalities are not creepy at all. On the contrary, they look quite extraordinary and mysterious.

Some of them were originally rabbit spirits, but had rhinoceros horns on their heads, with cold light flashing and white frost condensing on them, which seemed to be mysterious.

Some looked like bear monsters, but they had two wings, one blue and one purple, with erect pupils, and a faint whistling of wind and thunder could be heard when their wings flapped.

What is even more bizarre is that there is a lion demon at the head of the group.

Not only did it grow a pair of wings, it also had a wolf's head, a wolf's head, and a python's head as a tail.

This lion demon has two horns on its head, and white feathers faintly growing on a pair of fleshy wings, and its roar is like thunder.

Its aura is quite extraordinary and ferocious, somewhat similar to that of the Incorruptible Bone. Both are only one step away from being a great demon.

Chen Xi looked at it with great interest and felt it was very novel.

We have seen many strange and bizarre monsters in our daily lives, but these creatures with obvious characteristics, like immortal beasts, are very rare.

The black water waves surge endlessly.

All the water creatures were on high alert, and among them was a snake demon wearing silver armor, who stepped forward to challenge them.

"Why did you, the soldiers of Chechi State, come to the Black Water River to cause chaos?"

"For many years, we have kept to ourselves. Now, are you trying to break the agreement and start a war?"

When the lion demon heard this, he didn't say a word. Instead, the wolf head on his neck burst into laughter.

"What a bullshit agreement! At this point, you're still talking about this and that. Aren't you just afraid of us?"

On the other side, the wolf-headed man was also grinning evilly, making mocking remarks and trying his best to provoke the silver-armored snake demon.

"Things are different now. In previous years, we were still a little afraid of you."

"Now that my three masters have shown their power, everyone in Chechi country has benefited from their kindness. Their skills have greatly improved, and they have hope of becoming immortals."

After the wolf-head finished speaking, the lion demon suddenly opened his mouth, his voice shaking all directions, and there was a hint of threat in his words.

"Hand over the secret of destiny left by the Great Emperor Zhenwu, and we will give you a chance to live!"

"If not, you, a bunch of shrimp soldiers and crab generals, might as well commit suicide and jump into the alchemy furnace as soon as possible, so that you can suffer less."

"It will also help us to commit fewer murders, so that we can ascend to heaven sooner and chant sutras and pray for you, the people who have the resources!"
