Journey to the West: Become stronger by taking on disciples, start by recruiting a demonized Sun Wuk

Chu Qing did not intend to hinder the development of Buddhism, nor did he deliberately sabotage Zhunti's plans.

My initial intention was simply to take on an apprentice and receive a system reward, but things are always unpredictable.

This is how it turned out.

If Chu Qing knew about Zhunti's situation, she would only say, "Zhunti deserved it."

Then I went back to sleep.

"Senior brother, Sun Wukong's cultivation level is now that of a quasi-saint. I'm worried that Ksitigarbha won't be able to defeat him."

"With Sun Wukong's strength, Ksitigarbha will die."

"Even if we are sent to rescue them, it will be too late."

Zhunti was very worried.

He had many disciples, but Ksitigarbha was the one he valued the most.

The guide said, "Don't worry."

"Ksitigarbha has your innate spiritual treasure, while Sun Wukong only has the acquired golden cudgel."

Even if Ksitigarbha can't defeat Sun Wukong, he won't die.

"He might even be able to fight Sun Wukong to a draw."

Zhunti thought he was right.

Ksitigarbha possessed a complete set of innate spiritual treasures bestowed upon him, with power approaching that of top-grade innate spiritual treasures.

Sun Wukong only has one golden cudgel.

Even after transforming into the Chaotic Demon Ape and reaching the Quasi-Saint realm, Ksitigarbha was still able to contend with him.

In the battles between cultivators in the primordial era, magical treasures are of utmost importance.

Magical treasures are more important than cultivation level, supernatural powers, physical body, and magical power.

During the Investiture of the Gods, Yin Jiao's cultivation was inferior to Guang Chengzi's, yet he defeated him using the Fan Tian Seal.

It relies on the power of the acquired treasure, the Heaven-Turning Seal.

"Senior brother is right. I was too hasty and didn't think things through."

Zhunti looked at Sun Wukong and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

Sun Wukong continued his actions after transforming into the Mischievous Demon Ape.

"The Golden Cudgel!"

Sun Wukong roared inwardly, "Demon Ape Cudgel!"

The next moment, a demonic ape staff, exactly the same as the golden cudgel, appeared in Sun Wukong's hand.

After Sun Wukong's extraordinary encounter at the Dragon Palace of the East Sea and the guidance of Chu Qing, he realized that the one who had ambushed him with the Golden Cudgel was a sage.

From that moment on, he became more vigilant and devised a plan.

He decided to transform the Demon Ape Staff into the form of the Golden Cudgel to deceive the saint who was plotting against him.

Sun Wukong wasn't sure if this method would work, but it was worth a try, and it wouldn't weaken the power of the Demon Ape Staff, a chaotic spiritual treasure.

He decided to give it a try.

"Bald monk, take this from my old Sun!"

Sun Wukong activated his Battle Saint Technique, condensing the essence of countless staff techniques into a single strike, which he then slammed down upon Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

the other side.

When Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva saw Sun Wukong transform into the Chaotic Demon Ape and instantly reach the Quasi-Saint realm, his expression changed drastically!

Sun Wukong's combat power was astonishing when he was at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and now that he has broken through to the Quasi-Saint realm, his combat power is even stronger.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva knew that he could not defeat Sun Wukong.

"Who is Sun Wukong's master, that he could teach him such powerful supernatural abilities!"

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was shocked.

He felt stifled.

As a disciple of a sage, his supernatural powers were less than those of a wild monkey, nor as refined.

The fact that only six magical treasures made up the innate spiritual treasure gave him some peace of mind.

"Fortunately, I have a primordial spiritual treasure."

"Sun Wukong's acquired magical treasures are inferior to mine, but I can defeat him by relying on the power of my magic weapons."

With this in mind, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva regained his faith.

Sun Wukong swung his staff at Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva roared, "Well done! Behold my magic weapon to break your supernatural powers!"

He raised the demon-subduing staff and took the golden cudgel head-on.

The golden cudgel instantly snapped the demon-subduing staff in two, and the remaining force struck the arm of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, leaving it a bloody mess.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva screamed and retreated, throwing away the broken pole.

Di Ting tried to rush over, but was stopped by his stern shout.

King Yama was dumbfounded.

The sight of Sun Wukong transforming into a demonic ape shocked Yama, and now that he had broken Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's innate spiritual treasure with a single blow, Yama found it even more unacceptable.

This is impossible!

King Yama was filled with doubt: "Wasn't the Iron Ruyi that Sun Wukong obtained from the Dragon Palace of the East Sea refined into a postnatal treasure of merit by Laozi?"

"How can an acquired spiritual treasure destroy an innate spiritual treasure?"

"Has the world gone mad, or have I, Yama, become blind?"

King Yama suddenly had a change of heart.

Laozi did not forge the Dinghai Divine Needle into an ordinary acquired merit treasure.

Instead, it was refined into a powerful acquired treasure, capable of rivaling the Heaven-Turning Seal!

King Yama gasped.

"Is the Sage Taiqing using his golden cudgel to scheme against Buddhism?"

He immediately warned himself not to think about it anymore.

The primordial world is fraught with danger and unpredictability; the strategies of a sage are beyond the comprehension of even a minor Yama King.

Deep in the sea of ​​blood.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's innate spiritual treasure was shattered by Sun Wukong's staff, leaving the Styx Ancestor so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.

From ancient times to the present, very few innate spiritual treasures have been destroyed in battles.

Witnessing the complete destruction of a magical treasure made the Styx Ancestor feel that waking up to watch the battle was the best thing he had ever done.

He greatly admired Sun Wukong.

At the same time, the Styx Ancestor also had many questions.

He had heard that the iron needle used by Yu the Great to control the floods was later refined by Laozi into the Ruyi Jingu Bang (Golden Cudgel), which was intended for use by the Buddhist monks who were to embark on their pilgrimage.

What you see in front of you should be the one that Sun Wukong is holding.

Because the words "Ruyi Jingu Bang" (如意金箍棒) were written on the golden cudgel, the Styx Ancestor recognized it.

The Styx Ancestor couldn't understand how an ordinary acquired merit treasure could break an innate treasure.

This is a question worth pondering.

The Styx Ancestor immediately thought of Taiqing Laozi, just like Yama, the King of Hell.

"hehe."

The Styx Ancestor sneered, "Brilliant, this game is even more interesting now."

"I never expected things to turn out this way. It turns out it was all a scheme by Laozi Taiqing."

"I wonder what expressions Zhunti and Jieyin are wearing right now."

"If only I could see it."

……

Deep within the chaos, in the palace of the Xiong Emperor.

"That must be the Ruyi Jingu Bang, a magical artifact born from acquired merit."

Nuwa was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that an acquired merit-based spiritual treasure could instantly shatter an innate spiritual treasure.

The truth of this matter greatly shocked Nuwa.

Is the Ruyi Jingu Bang (Golden Cudgel) merely an acquired treasure built upon merit?

Nuwa turned her head to look into the depths of chaos, her gaze piercing through the faintly visible Sanqing Courtyard.

"Senior Brother Taiqing, are you plotting behind the scenes to prevent Buddhism from growing stronger?"

After Nuwa finished speaking, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

The situation has become even more interesting.

I really want to see the expressions on the faces of the two saints, Cundi and Jieyin.

If I were them, I would have gone to ask Senior Brother Taiqing for clarification long ago.

In the Jade Void Palace deep within the chaos, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable suddenly stood up.

"The innate spiritual treasure has been destroyed?"

A rare look of shock appeared on Yuanshi Tianzun's face.

He immediately understood the key issue.

How can an acquired merit-based spiritual treasure so easily sever an innate spiritual treasure?

There must be more to the story, and it's a very serious matter!

The Primordial Celestial Venerable suddenly looked towards the Three Pure Ones' courtyard deep within the chaos, his heart filled with doubt.

"Brother, is it true that you and Third Brother secretly conspired to plot against Buddhism, prevent its prosperity, and sabotage the Journey to the West?"

Yuanshi Tianzun immediately flew into a rage, his fury burning!

"Old Master Taiqing, Third Brother is muddle-headed, and you're muddle-headed too!"

"The flourishing of Buddhism is the inevitable trend of Heaven, and the inevitable trend of Heaven cannot be defied. You experienced the Investiture of the Gods; don't you understand that?"
