Martial Arts Crossover: Infiltrating a Girls' Chat Group at the Start

After glancing at Lin Zhu, Yang Jian unleashed a beam of silver light that struck Tang Sanzang.

"Why is that, Master?"

Tang Sanzang kept muttering "Aba aba" without making a sound.

Lin Zhu said, "He's too talkative, so I silenced him by pressing his acupoint."

Having said that, he reached out and released Tang Sanzang's speech impediment from a distance.

Tang Sanzang then spoke, his first words being, "Lin Zhenjun, you've gone too far."

Yang Jian, however, was curious about Lin Zhu's acupressure technique and asked, "How did you do that?"

Lin Zhu laughed and said, "Want to learn? I'll teach you!"

"No need." Yang Jian didn't want Lin Zhu to teach him, so he cupped his hands in greeting to Tang Sanzang and said, "Holy Monk, Yang Jian takes his leave."

Having said that, he transformed into a streak of silver light and vanished before him.

Tang Sanzang was dumbfounded. He still had so much to say to others, so why had Yang Jian left?

Then he looked at Lin Zhu again.

Lin Zhu threatened, "If you keep babbling, I'll keep pressing your speech acupoints."

Tang Sanzang fell silent.

Lin Zhu unleashed a beam of light that purified the malevolent energy from the two demons, then used the "Sleeve Universe" technique to collect them into his sleeve.

Then he continued to invite Cheng Yaojin to eat.

Tang Sanzang chanted the Rebirth Sutra to help the souls of the dead find peace.

The day before they were about to arrive at Wuzhi Mountain, Taiyi was summoned by Houtu.

"Greetings, Your Majesty."

Houtu was dressed entirely in golden robes, with the Six Paths of Reincarnation Wheel spinning behind her, exuding great majesty.

"Taiyi, I have something I need you to do."

This Taiyi, one of Yama's incarnations, chuckled and said, "Please give your orders, Your Majesty."

"Have your little devil spread a message that Lin Zhu possesses the Dao essence of three top-grade innate spiritual roots. If one consumes them, one can be spared from the three calamities and nine tribulations, and will have a very high chance of entering the Chaos Realm."

Master Taiyi responded, "Yes, disciple will..."

He suddenly realized what was happening and looked up sharply at Houtu. "Mother, Your Majesty, you're not wrong, are you?"

Houtu had anticipated his reaction and nodded, saying, "That's right, just do as I instruct."

"Ah, this...this..." He cautiously looked at Houtu, "Your Majesty, if that's the case, Brother Lin Zhu might be in danger!"

Houtu nodded and said, "It's precisely because he's in danger that the journey to the west would be too smooth."

Taiyi felt a chill run down his spine.

The idea that eating Lin Zhu would allow one to reach the Chaos Realm, and that this was said by Hou Tu herself, is practically a death sentence.

Let alone those demons, even Taiyi himself was tempted, okay?

Chapter 936 Guanyin: Shut up

He felt uneasy just thinking about what Lin Zhu would encounter in the future, and said, "Your Majesty, could you have someone else do this, such as Ksitigarbha or the Emperor of Fengdu?"

"No need. You and Xiaozhu are good friends, so you're the one." Houtu didn't give him a chance to refuse. "I'll give you three months. Remember, three months in the mortal realm, not three months in Heaven."

At this moment, the Grand Master Taiyi in the Golden Cloud Cave slapped his head hard. "What kind of mess is this! Brother Lin Zhu, I can only apologize to you."

At this moment, Lin Zhu felt a chill run down his spine, as if something bad was waiting for him ahead.

Meanwhile, in the Great Thunderclap Temple, Buddha also sensed something beyond his control.

As the sun rises in the east, a pure purple aura of yang energy comes from the east.

Lin Zhu opened his mouth and inhaled, drawing in boundless purple energy that lasted for almost half an hour.

With just this one breath, he could probably achieve the same result as someone else cultivating for a whole year.

Cheng Yaojin, who was awake, was astonished upon seeing this scene.

That night, the dew was heavy, and Tang Sanzang woke up trembling, beginning his morning prayers.

While striking the wooden fish, they chanted the Great Compassion Mantra.

I must say, it actually sounds pretty good.

Cheng Yaojin watched as the bamboo glowed with a purplish-gold light, and Tang Seng was bathed in golden Buddhist light.

This wasn't the first time he'd seen it, so he was already used to it.

Lin Zhu and Tang Seng woke up almost at the same time.

"Amitabha, Lord Lin, General Cheng, we can set off now."

"Alright!" Cheng Yaojin easily picked up the luggage.

Lin Zhu remained lying on Lin Zhao's back, walking at the very front.

All three were incredibly fast. Although Tang Sanzang was a mortal, his white horse was no ordinary steed; it could travel tens of thousands of miles a day without any problem.

Therefore, they arrived at the Five Elements Mountain area at noon.

Upon seeing their arrival, the Five Directions Protectors quickly removed the barrier.

When Sun Wukong was imprisoned under the Five Fingers Mountain, his fiery eyes saw the barrier disappear and he knew that his time to escape had come.

So he shouted loudly towards the sky, his joy overflowing.

He was no ordinary monkey. Upon hearing the monkey's cry, Bai Yima's front legs went weak, and Tang Sanzang was instantly sent flying.

"Ah, my life is over!"

He closed his eyes tightly, awaiting death.

Lin Zhu reacted swiftly, grabbing Tang Seng and suspending him in mid-air.

"Alright, I'll let go if there's nothing else."

After waiting for a long time, Tang Sanzang heard voices and opened his eyes, only to find that he was less than a foot away from the ground.

Lin Zhu released his hand before he could react.

Tang Sanzang fell flat on his face, his red cassock spreading out on the ground.

Ignoring the pain in his body, he looked at Lin Zhu and asked, "What kind of demon king is unleashing its power?"

"It's not a monster, it's just a monkey that's been trapped under the mountain," Lin Zhu explained with a smile, then said, "Let's go, let's go see him, he's also one of the pilgrims."

"Huh?" Tang Sanzang was a little puzzled. He got up and dusted himself off. "A monkey is also a pilgrim?"

"What? You look down on monkeys? Doesn't your Buddhist tradition say that all beings are equal?"

"Amitabha, this humble monk was narrow-minded." Tang Sanzang admitted his mistake readily this time, "I am very grateful to the True Lord for saving my life."

"It's alright, we'll be spending another ten years or so together." Lin Zhu said, then looked at Cheng Yaojin, "Old Cheng, the monkey who can carry luggage will be here soon, you can go back then."

"Yes, True Lord."

Cheng Yaojin responded, but did not insist on seeing them off any further.

He sensed it last night; his strength had declined significantly since leaving the Tang Dynasty.

Soon, the three of them crossed mountains and ridges to reach the main peak of Five Finger Mountain, which was a middle finger.

Cheng Yaojin, watching from a distance, said, "I don't know why, but I, Old Cheng, feel a strong sense of malice coming from this mountain."

Lin Zhu laughed and said, "You're lucky. Think about the monkey who was imprisoned for five hundred years. By the way, this Five Finger Mountain is actually a severed arm of Buddha."

"Since it is the Buddha's severed arm, this humble monk cannot be disrespectful." Tang Sanzang said, and then bowed down towards the Five Finger Mountain.

Immediately, six golden lights shone forth.

"Om Mani Padme Hum"

Sun Wukong, who was trapped under the mountain, suddenly felt that the mountain had become much lighter and the force suppressing him had loosened.

So he shouted, "Bowing again, bowing once more."

Tang Sanzang thought it was a Buddhist protector reminding him, so he was about to bow down again.

But just as he was about to bow, a voice stopped him, "Tang Sanzang, do not bow."

Tang Sanzang looked up and saw Guanyin sitting cross-legged on a white lotus platform, floating in the air.

"Greetings to Guanyin Bodhisattva."

Guanyin reached out and helped him up, saying, "No need for formalities." She looked at Lin Zhu with a hint of resentment, without even offering a word of advice.

Finally, he looked at Sun Wukong and said, "You monkey, your master saved you, but you don't go back on your word. Have you forgotten what you promised?"

Sun Wukong knew he couldn't fool them, so he whispered, "Bodhisattva, why have you come at this time?"

“If I hadn’t come, you probably would have escaped and gone back to Flower Fruit Mountain.” Guanyin clearly saw through Sun Wukong’s thoughts.

Sun Wukong smiled sheepishly, but stubbornly said, "Bodhisattva, you are questioning my monkey character."

Guanyin smiled and said, "Are you going to call me 'Master' or not?"

“Call me! I, Old Sun, call you!” Sun Wukong shouted loudly, “Master, please save me, Old Sun!”

"Amitabha." Guanyin looked at Tang Sanzang. "Sanzang, this monkey is your eldest disciple. He will protect you on your journey to the West. You should recite the Buddhist verse, and it will help him escape his predicament."

"Disciple obeys." Tang Sanzang bowed to Guanyin again, then faced the six-syllable mantra and bowed three more times respectfully.

The six beams of golden light shone brightly, then transformed into a golden talisman, which Guanyin put into her sleeve.

Sun Wukong immediately felt his magical power return, and the binding force that had been pressing down on him also dissipated. So he let out a loud shout that shook the heavens and the earth.

As it broke through the Five Finger Mountain, rocks flew everywhere.

Some of them flew towards Lin Zhu and his group.

Lin Zhu immediately used his mountain-moving magic to freeze all the flying stones, large and small, in mid-air.

"I, Old Sun, am out! I, Old Sun, am out!"
