The Journey to the West is over, and the Perfect Life System is here

Chapter 78 Clues

On the other side, Sun Wukong was riding his somersault cloud to the ninth heaven.

Suddenly, the system's voice sounded in his mind again.

[Congratulations on completing the mission: Heavenly Soldier Expedition. Do you want to proceed with the mission settlement?]

"Hehe, it's also good for the system to be a little stupid." Sun Wukong was very happy.

But if you think about it carefully, those five hundred Arhats and three thousand Jieti gods can actually be considered heavenly soldiers in name.

Because the Western Buddha is one of the Five Elders of the Heavenly Court, these monks and guardian gods of Lingshan are of course also under the command of the Heavenly Court.

Not to mention them, the Four Heavenly Kings guarding the Heavenly Gate are the guardian gods in Buddhism.

"Now the reminder is that the mission is completed. It seems that Lingshan has acknowledged it. Hmm..." Sun Wukong scratched his face again and immediately chose to check.

[Mission Summary: You almost single-handedly defeated the numerous invading heavenly soldiers, but your experience was far from perfect...]

"What kind of system is this? It's so stupid!" Sun Wukong scratched his head.

This time he was facing three of the four great Bodhisattvas of Buddhism, Ksitigarbha, Manjushri and Samantabhadra!
What else does it take to be perfect?
The Monkey King quickly read the summary at the end.

[Because you were too reckless. Even though you already knew that Dizang had the Hunyuan Dao Fruit, you still went to hell alone to investigate.

Although you called for reinforcements in advance, if you didn't have the support of many righteous people and unexpected experts to help you, your experience might end in failure.

"I didn't know that Dizang would be possessed by a demon." Sun Wukong scratched his hand.

But thinking about it again, I was indeed a bit reckless this time. I should have found a master in the Hunyuan realm in advance.

If the woodcutter had not taken action in time, he would probably have been suppressed by Dizang and sent to the Nine Netherworld.

Even if the Emperor Ziwei brought his troops to the scene, it would be too late.

"Well, I should be more careful next time." Sun Wukong thought to himself.

Continue reading the task summary.

[The Tathagata Buddha, who was far away in Mount Lingshan, used his wisdom eyes to examine the three realms. He told the monks in Mount Lingshan what happened in the Nine Netherworlds.

But he calmed the public anger for you, saying that Dizang was too stubborn and that he wanted to resolve the resentment of the Jinghe Dragon King, so he hid his soul in his body.

Those Arhats and Jiedis also died a worthy death and have long since passed away to the Pure Land...]

"Hehe, I knew it would be like this!" Sun Wukong sneered.

Unless it is absolutely necessary, Tathagata will never deny his Buddhist status.

However, Tathagata can see through the three realms with his wisdom eyes, so we need to be extra careful.

[After learning that you were taking the spirit of the Jinghe Dragon King to the Heaven, Guanyin Bodhisattva took the initiative to ask for permission to go to the Heaven to help you attain enlightenment and liberation.

Tathagata agreed and reminded her that Lingshan recognized her as the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, and she should accept it when the time comes.

In addition, Guanyin is very confused. Why are you so sure that the spirit of the Jinghe Dragon King is in Dizang?

"Oh? Asking for permission on your own initiative? This Bodhisattva is getting anxious!" A gleam of light flashed in Sun Wukong's eyes.

After all, the death of the Jinghe Dragon King was caused by Guanyin Bodhisattva using a knife to kill someone. As a participant in this calculation, she must be anxious.

Looking at the following description, the Great Sage scratched his face again.

In fact, if Lan Cai had not told him, it would have been difficult for him to find the soul of the Jinghe Dragon King, even though he already knew that this old dragon had not been reincarnated.

Lan Cai also told him that if he could find the soul of the Jinghe Dragon King, he might be able to see some clues about the master's plan.

Now he has done it, but where are the clues?
"Could it be..." Sun Wukong's heart moved, and he remembered the abnormality he had noticed before.

Before Ksitigarbha passed away, he said that he was just one thought away.

He felt something was wrong at the time, but he didn't delve into it.

Now he understands!
First, the Jinghe Dragon King has been dead for almost twenty years. Buddhism has too many ways to make the old dragon's soul fly away. Why does Ksitigarbha still hide the old dragon's soul in his body?

He didn't believe what Tathagata said, that Ksitigarbha was too stubborn.

After all, the mastermind behind this conspiracy was Guanyin, not Dizang.

So there must be something wrong here. Secondly, when he used the soul-calling talisman to discover that the spirit of the Jinghe Dragon King was in Dizang, the Netherworld Master clearly could have left by force, but he chose to go to the Nine Netherworlds, deeper in Hell. This was truly strange.

Sun Wukong thought about it again, but became more and more confused, and felt that this calculation was still confusing.

At this moment, the system's voice continued to sound.

【Task Rating: Excellent】

Mission Rewards: 2 Fragments of the Law of Archery, Three Heads and Six Arms (Supernatural Power), Law of Heaven and Earth (Supernatural Power), Arhat Demon Subduing Formation, Five-Directional Yin Sha Formation

"What's the use of these two magical rewards for me?" Sun Wukong scratched his hands.

However, he also understood that the three heads and six arms and the ability to control the heavens and the earth should be the rewards given by the system based on the heavenly soldiers' first attack on the Flower-Fruit Mountain.

Next, he headed all the way to heaven.

Only when he saw the North Gate of Heaven was in sight did the Great Sage stop his somersault cloud.

Before he could go in, he suddenly heard shouting from behind him.

"Great Sage, please walk slowly, please walk slowly!"

Sun Wukong looked back and saw the three stars from the sea rushing towards him.

But he had sharp eyes and could see at a glance that the hurry was fake, and the purpose of their calling him was self-evident.

Thinking back to when they convicted Qin Guang Wang Jiang and the former North Sea Dragon King Ao Shun, these three people all advised him to be good, and the old man of longevity even said that he was a monkey who knew nothing!
"You naughty monkey?" Sun Wukong sneered. Since they had already fallen out, he certainly wouldn't be in a good mood now.

The three stars of Fu, Lu, and Shou, however, were still smiling. They caught up with him and bowed, saying, "We pay our respects to the Great Sage."

Sun Wukong asked, "Why do you three servants call me Sun?"

Samsung was angry, but did not dare to lash out.

Back when they were at Wuzhuang Temple, Zhu Bajie teased them, calling them slaves, and they dared to retort and refute him, but now in front of the Great Sage, they were unable to utter a word of rebuttal.

Finally, Fuxing smiled apologetically and said, "We found a jar of fine wine overseas and specially invited the Great Sage to taste it."

Sun Wukong said, "If it's good wine, just serve it to me. Why should I go to your place to taste it? No, no."

The birthday star quickly said, "We sincerely invite you, Great Sage, please don't refuse."

Sun Wukong was puzzled. "Who refused? I told you to bring out the wine right now."

Luxing said, "Great Sage, the wine is in Penglai."

Sun Wukong snorted coldly: "Then go get it now, I'll be waiting in the Heavenly Palace."

After saying that, he turned and headed towards Beitianmen.

The three stars stayed where they were, looking at each other in bewilderment, and then smiled helplessly. The Emperor asked them to detain Sun Wukong for a moment, but this task was not accomplished, and they ended up paying with a bottle of wine.

Of course Sun Wukong knew who sent them, but it was useless to pursue it now. There would be a reckoning sooner or later!
When they arrived at the North Gate of Heaven, they saw Vaisravana and his heavenly soldiers and generals, who were waiting in full battle formation.

"You guys want to stop me too?" Sun Wukong said coldly.

"Great Sage, please calm down. I am just following your orders." Vaisravana was respectful but terrified inside.

"On whose orders?" asked Sun Wukong.

Before Vaisravana could reply, a voice came from the North Heaven Gate: "Follow my orders!"

Looking for the source of the sound, I saw a boy in white clothes with a gourd hanging around his waist walking out of the North Gate.

Sun Wukong probably guessed who it was, but he still asked, "Who are you? How dare you block the way of me, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven?"

The boy in white clothes stood with his hands behind his back, looking very aloof. He just glanced at the Monkey King and said nothing more.

Sun Wukong was happy. It was rare to see any god dare to put on airs in front of him.

Upon seeing this, the Heavenly King of Wisdom quickly said, "Great Sage, this is the Immortal White Crane, disciple of the Southern Emperor of Immortality!"

　I recommended Sanjiang in the afternoon. I ask for your support and keep moving forward. Thank you!
