Journey to the West: Cultivation Begins at Jindou Mountain

Chapter 121: Golden Light Across the Land
Niu Yi stayed with Zen Master Wuchao for three days before saying goodbye and leaving, heading towards his own sect.

He and the Zen master also had an agreement that every hundred years, if he had free time, he would come to Mount Futu to meet with the old Zen master and talk about what he had seen and heard over the past hundred years.

As for the book given by Zen Master Wuchao, although Niu Yi was a little curious, he still planned to follow the Zen Master's advice and wait until he arrived at Lingtai Fangcun Mountain and Xieyue Sanxing Cave to check it out.

On the night that Niu Yi left Futu Mountain, he had just entered the spiritual state of mind when he unexpectedly found that he had arrived at the back door of the ancestor's house.

Niu Yi quickly straightened his clothes, stepped forward, walked through the path, entered the half-open door, and came before the master.

Niu Yi closed the door, looked at the master sitting cross-legged on the cushion, and respectfully performed the disciple's salute.

"Master."

But Patriarch Bodhi slowly opened his eyes, looked at Niu Yi with gentle eyes, and nodded slowly:

"How many years have you been away from home?"

"Master, it has been one year and three months."

"Did you gain anything along the way?"

Niu Yi thought of the merits he had accumulated halfway, the two pieces of jade, a Xingluo chess manual, a Diyuan pill, and the nameless book given by Zen Master Wuchao, which he had not yet opened. He nodded honestly and said:

"The disciples have gained a lot."

Patriarch Bodhi looked at Niu Yi, smiled gently, nodded slightly, and said:

"In that case, how about you go and help me do something?"

Niu Yi was shocked when he heard this and bowed quickly and said:
"I obey Master in everything. I don't know why Master needs me to do anything for you."

"Hmm~"

"Thirteen thousand miles southwest of your current location, a tiger demon is wreaking havoc in the area. In that area, there's a village called Queqiao. Within that village, there's a child who has a master-disciple relationship with me."

"Guangyi, go find the child, bring him with you, and return to Lingtai Fangcun Mountain as soon as possible."

Niu Yi couldn't help but get excited when he heard this, and quickly said:
"Yes, Guangyi will obey the master's orders."

When Niu Yi opened his eyes, he was shocked to find that he had once again appeared in the central hall of Lingtai's mind.

Niu Yi bowed respectfully towards the tablet of the ancestor, then turned and walked out of the hall. He stood in the courtyard, looking at the bright moon in the starry sky in a daze.

"The bond between master and disciple is that I don't know what's so special about that child. Master didn't tell me how to find that child, but he believed I could find him."

"However, at least I don't have to leave. As for the tiger demon, since Master didn't say to subdue it, it must mean that he wants me to handle it on my own."

"Heh~ Anyway, the Earth-flying Golden Light Divine Ability I realized three months ago has finally found its place."

Niu Yi smiled and walked towards the library.

He has not been idle for more than a year. Not only has he mastered half of the 72 transformations, but he can also transform into an eagle, a fish, a sparrow, a mosquito, a fly, etc., which are all no problem.

He also comprehended the magical power of sending golden light across the earth three months ago. Although it was only a preliminary understanding, he could still travel thousands of miles a day. However, he had never been able to use it. Now, he can use this magical power to travel faster.

However, he was still a little short of the sun and moon in the pot, and he did not have any good materials to refine the wine pot. Perhaps he could only study this magical power after returning to his master.

Early the next morning, Niu Yi slowly opened his eyes, looked at the golden sunlight coming in from outside the cave, and slowly stood up.

A tiger demon? I’m really looking forward to it.

Niu Yi glanced at the sun rising slowly from the horizon not far away and couldn't help but smile. He identified his direction, tapped the ground with his toes, and instantly jumped up. His figure instantly turned into a golden light and flew into the sky, heading southwest at a high speed. The territory of Huxiao Mountain.

The God of Land of Jindou Mountain looked at the tiger-shaped rock in front of him and sighed slightly.

How could he not understand now that the Earth God of Tiger Roaring Mountain in front of him never woke up.

It’s not that I can’t, but that I don’t want to.

This is because they are afraid of punishment from Heaven.
But he himself could understand this matter. After all, the Tiger Roar King was brought up by the Earth God of Tiger Roar Mountain, just like the White Crane of Yunwu Mountain, Yao Qing'er of Luoying Valley, and the Water Blue Fish Monster of Baoquan Creek.

But it happened that the one with the best talent and background in Huxiaoshan went astray and ended up with such a terrible end.

However, the God of the Land of Tiger Roar Mountain tolerated the Tiger Roar King again and again, until one day he was completely unable to control the Tiger Roar King, which led to the current outcome.

The God of Land at Jindou Mountain looked at the huge rock in front of him and shook his head slightly.

There is actually not much point in continuing to pretend to be dead like this. They cannot escape the heavenly rules. The land of Huxiao Mountain must be held responsible for his dereliction of duty. If they continue like this, it may cause dissatisfaction from above.

However, the other three land gods had not said anything about this matter, so his neighbor, who had arrived last, naturally could not say much either.

The Earth God of Jindou Mountain slowly turned around, and left here in a flash, using the power of the earth veins to quickly head towards Jindou Mountain.

He promised Niu Yi to take good care of Jindou Mountain, so he naturally had to do it. Fortunately, in the more than a year since Niu Yi left, the bull spirits on Jindou Mountain have been very worry-free.

The God of Land of Jindou Mountain did not notice that after he left, the tiger-shaped rock seemed to tremble slightly.

One day later, in Queqiao Village.

Queqiao Village, which was bustling half a year ago, is now as silent as a deserted village.

At this time, in a house in Queqiao Village, a man was looking outside nervously through the crack of the wooden door in front of him, his eyes dark and his face pale.

"How about it?"

Hearing the old voice coming from behind him, the man subconsciously shook his head, licked his cracked lips, and whispered:
"No movement, those monsters should have left."

The old man shook his head slightly, his face showing a sad expression, and said:

"Well, that would be great, but I'm afraid they're just teasing us."

When the man heard this, a bitter look appeared on his face.

He still remembered that the immortal master they had invited half a month ago was stabbed through by several monsters in front of them. After throwing the body in front of them, the monsters left with creepy laughter.

They are just a group of mortals with flesh and blood, how can they be a match for those monsters.

I'm afraid it's just as the old man said, everything they are doing now is like a joke in the eyes of those monsters.

"Dangdang~"

Hearing a sudden knock on the door, the old man and the man couldn't help but change their expressions. Just as they were about to move, they suddenly heard a clear young voice coming from outside.

"Is there anyone here? I'm passing through your place and I'm extremely thirsty. I'd like to ask for a bowl of water."

The old man and the man looked at each other, and the old man said quickly:

"Open the door quickly! Don't let him make any more noise! ​​He'll attract the monster!"
