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

“That’s right.” Li Po had been in the underworld for a long time and hadn’t been to the mortal realm for a long time. It wasn’t something he could go to whenever he wanted.

Now that I have the token personally bestowed by the Goddess Houtu, and the token's owner has found someone to help him, wouldn't I be able to go to the human world?

So he patted Pigsy on the shoulder and said, "Little Pig, look, I'm also at the Hunyuan Realm, and even at the fifth level. How about I go with you?"

"This!" Pigsy hesitated. After all, Lin Zhu wanted him to go to Fengdu, but the person in front of him was Chi You's brother, and he was afraid that Lin Zhu would not be able to control him.

Seeing his hesitation, Li Po knew that Chi You and he himself probably didn't have a good reputation, so he snatched the Six Paths Reincarnation Token and then sent a part of his divine soul into it.

He then tossed the Six Paths of Reincarnation Token to Pigsy, asking, "Can we go now?"

"No?" Pigsy was dumbfounded. "Senior, what kind of operation is this?"

He wasn't the owner of the Six Paths of Reincarnation Token, so he didn't know what Li Po was doing.

Li Po explained, "A wisp of my soul entered the Six Paths of Reincarnation Order. Once I arrived in the mortal realm, my life was in the hands of the Order's master. Do you understand?"

"Is that even possible?" Pigsy was truly amazed. Confused, he asked, "Why is that, senior?"

Li Po was getting impatient. "Why ask so many questions? Let's go quickly so I can go see what the human world is like now. I heard from Xing Tian that the human world is much larger now, and the innate spiritual energy is much thinner."

After all, the Pangu Realm is many times larger, so it is only natural that the innate spiritual energy is diluted.

Pigsy looked at the Six Paths of Reincarnation Token with some doubt, but seeing that Li Po was angry, he had no choice but to open the Gate of Hell and return with Li Po to the ruins of the city east of Huangfeng Ridge.

"Finally out, the air here is so warm."

Sun Wukong, who was guarding Tang Sanzang's side, saw the Gates of Hell open, but the first thing he saw was not Zhu Bajie, but this big guy in front of him, so he asked, "Who are you?"

Li Po looked down and laughed out loud: "I didn't expect it to be a little monkey. You must be Lord Lin Zhu?"

Sun Wukong was completely confused. "I'm not the eldest brother. I'm Sun Wukong. And who are you?"

"Sun Wukong?" Li Po laughed and said, "I heard from that fat Yama that there's a monkey who wants to change the Book of Life and Death. Is that you, you monkey?"

Sun Wukong was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "That Yama dares to gossip behind my back? After this, I'll give him a good whack with my staff."

"Brother Monkey, Yama, the King of Hell, is Taiyi Zhenren, who is also the master of Nezha, the Third Prince. His magical powers are extremely profound!"

Pigsy offered a reminder.

Sun Wukong's lips twitched as he said, "Could it be that he's more powerful than Buddha?"

Pigsy shook his head. “That’s not necessarily true. But that Taiyi Zhenren has hundreds of millions of Taiyi clones, each with the strength of a Taiyi Golden Immortal. Even if he kills one, it won’t be a big deal to him. It’s just that the murderer will be burdened with karma.”

“The little pig is right.” Li Pi looked around and asked, “Where is the lord?”

Sun Wukong was a little annoyed and said, "He went to Yellow Wind Ridge and isn't here. But he said he'd be back soon, so it should be soon."

"Alright, then I'll wait a bit." Li Po looked up and saw Mahasthamaprapta and the others, but not Guanyin. So he asked, "Those four in the air seem to be from the Western Sect."

Tang Sanzang was only a Celestial Immortal at the peak of his cultivation, which was automatically ignored by Li Po, since even the White Dragon Horse and Lin Zhao had higher cultivation levels than him.

In Li Po's eyes, all living beings are truly equal.

"They're not from the Western religion, they're from Buddhism," Sun Wukong explained.

Li Po said, "I almost forgot, after the Investiture of the Gods, the Western Sect changed its name to Buddhism. I heard that the new Buddha of Buddhism is the former senior brother of the Jie Sect, named Duobao, right?"

Tang Sanzang pricked up his ears.

He is now very interested in gossip about the Buddha, just like Jin Chanzi in the Peach Garden back then.

Little did he know that curiosity killed the cat, and that's how he was chosen by Buddha to be the one to go on the pilgrimage.

Sun Wukong didn't know the answer to Li Po's question, while Zhu Bajie dared not answer.

"What, you didn't know about this?"

Sun Wukong shook his head, "I, Old Sun, truly do not know."

Pigsy smiled and said, "I, Old Pig, will be serving in the Western Paradise for a period of time in the future, so I dare not speak presumptuously."

"Alright, alright, I was just asking." Li Po turned his head and looked around again, only then noticing Tang Seng. "Oh, you little monk, you do know the methods of my underworld. May I ask who your master is?"

“Amitabha Buddha, this humble monk is Tang Sanzang, greetings to the benefactor. My master is the abbot of Jinshan Temple, whose name is Faming.”

Tang Sanzang only felt that Li Po was fierce, and in comparison, even Sun Wukong was much more lovable.

“Faming? I don’t know him.” Li Po shook his head. “Your Buddhist power is like that of Bodhidharma. Do you know Bodhidharma?”

Bodhidharma was in the underworld and should have been reincarnated, but he was not.

During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the person who brought Buddhism to the east became Prajñātāra, but his effect was not as good as that of Bodhidharma. Therefore, Zen Buddhism was not formed until the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

Therefore, upon hearing the name Bodhidharma, Tang Sanzang shook his head and asked, "Who is this person?"

“Him!” Li Po shook his head, seemingly lost in thought, and said, “He is also a monk, but a monk from our Underworld. The power within you is not much different from his.”

Tang Sanzang wanted to ask something more, but then the formation fluctuated, and Lin Zhu returned to see Li Po.

At first glance, I didn't recognize him.

Chapter 979 The Four Buddhists Who Were Slandered

Although he didn't know who the man was, seeing Zhu Bajie and sensing the Netherworld aura on Li Po, Lin Zhu knew that he was the savior.

"Lin Zhu, the patrol officer of the underworld and the human world, greets senior."

When Li Po saw Lin Zhu, his lips twitched. The style of this painting was too different from that of their underworld. In comparison, Zhu Bajie and Sun Wukong were more to his liking.

However, since this was the master of the Six Paths of Reincarnation Order, he dared not be negligent. "Master, you are too kind. Just call me Li Po."

Upon hearing this name, Lin Zhu immediately recognized his identity. "So you are a fellow soldier of the Ancestor of Soldiers. Greetings, Lin Zhu of the Human Race."

As the saying goes, one cannot hit a smiling face. Lin Zhu's attitude was so good that even if Li Po didn't have a good first impression of her, his goodwill towards her has greatly increased.

He's human too!

His voice softened further as he said, "That pig-headed guy already told me they're just a few Primordial Chaos Realm rat demons. I'll go and take them down for you."

As he spoke, he reached out and summoned a thick staff.

With such a large size and such a robust physique, Lin Zhu found it hard to believe that this was actually a human wizard.

"Let's go, lead the way."

"Please, senior!"

Lin Zhu led Li Po out of the great formation.

Sun Wukong followed, saying, "I, Old Sun, will go and take a look too."

With Zhu Bajie protecting Tang Sanzang, Lin Zhu felt reassured and nodded in agreement, "Alright."

As soon as Li Po stepped out of the great formation, he was discovered by Guanyin and Mahasthamaprapta.

The Bodhisattva of Sunlight frowned and said, "They actually invited help from the underworld. When did this happen?"

Guanyin was somewhat conflicted. She hadn't yet decided which leg to take, and she was hesitant about the matter of the underworld coming to steal her merits.

Mahasthamaprapta gave a cold snort and said, "This matter still needs to be reported to the Buddha."

Sunlight, Moonlight, and Vajra Venerable all agreed with this, and Avalokiteshvara did not object.

But now, they can't stop Li Po from subduing the demons, so they can only suffer in silence.

Logically speaking, the Yellow Wind Monster should have been subdued by the Bodhisattva Ranlingji.

But now it has been eaten by the three-headed rat demon, which makes him even angrier and more furious.

Sensing the intense malice, Li Po looked up at the sky, a cold smile playing on his lips, and muttered in his mind: 'Black Light Spell!'

A beam of black light descended upon Mahasthamaprapta and the other three.

The next moment, the golden light on Mahasthamaprapta and the others turned black, a kind of dark greenish-black that looked very sinister.

This scene stunned all the guardian deities and the Sangharama. The golden light of Buddhism had turned into a tainted light. What could be done about this?

The Great Power and the others were also dumbfounded. Looking at the light emanating from themselves and their fellow disciples, they were filled with rage.

"Too deceiving!"

Guanyin felt a chill run down her spine. The black light curse of the Jiuli people was not harmful, but it was extremely insulting, especially to Buddhist cultivators like them.

Fortunately, I didn't have any ill intentions towards the people of the underworld.

The Vajra Venerable also angrily asked, "What is he trying to do?"

Knowing that Guanyin possessed great supernatural powers, the Bodhisattva of Moonlight quickly said, "Please, Venerable Guanyin, save me."

“Amitabha, this humble monk has little knowledge of the laws of curses. You may all return to Mount Ling and seek treatment from Dipankara Buddha. I will take care of Jin Chanzi on your behalf.”

Looking at the appearance of the four people in front of her, Guanyin felt a little amused.

Upon hearing this, Mahasthamaprapta and the others were extremely frustrated and immediately withdrew the Buddhist light emanating from their bodies.

Then something even more shocking happened.

The Buddha's light subsided, but their skin turned black.

The four of them looked at each other, their faces as black as could be.

Not wanting to linger, he quickly flew to the South Heavenly Gate, intending to transfer back to Mount Ling.

At this moment, the four marshals were on duty at the South Heavenly Gate. When they saw four black men, they assumed that demons had come to seek death and immediately shouted, "What kind of monsters are you, daring to trespass at the South Heavenly Gate?"

With a red face, Marshal Guan Yu wielded the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, maintaining his cultivation at the level before him, and swung the blade down with a single strike.

A blue dragon soars across the sky, its blade energy stretching for thousands of miles.

"Amitabha!" The Vajra Venerable dared not be negligent. Black light emanated from his body, and the black Buddha hovered in the air. The black Buddha clasped his hands together and struggled to catch the blade's energy.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" Venerable Moonlight hurriedly revealed his identity: "Four Marshals, we are Bodhisattvas from the West, cursed by villains from the Underworld. We are only passing through to Mount Ling to ask Buddha Dipankara for help. Please do not make a move."

Upon seeing the black Buddha image manifested by the Vajra Venerable, the divine eye on Lord Ma's forehead immediately opened, and he indeed saw the power of the curse.

Then he said to Guan Yu, "Yun Chang, stop! They are indeed the Bodhisattvas of the West."

Guan Yu narrowed his phoenix eyes, dispersed the sword energy, sheathed his Green Dragon Crescent Blade, cupped his hands and said, "Forgive me."

Moonlight breathed a sigh of relief. "Marshal Ma's insight is remarkable. This humble monk thanks you."

The other three venerable ones also chanted a Buddhist prayer and performed a Buddhist salute.

Lord Ma asked, "I wonder which powerful figure in the underworld cast this spell? How could it have left the four Venerable Ones in such a sorry state?"
