But Houtu clearly didn't want to give him that opportunity.
Upon arriving at the main hall of the Samsara Palace, Houtu suspended the Time Tower, a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, and also accelerated time for Wu Xingyun and the others who had eaten the ginseng fruit.
She could tell that all the girls around her were interested in Lin Zhu, but now the difference was quite significant!
However, with the Tower of Time, their cultivation levels might surpass Lin Zhu's in the near future.
After all, Houtu is there to give them a boost, and when Nuwa returns, she will make sure that the people of the Samsara Palace are superior to the people of Nuwa Palace.
If it weren't for the fact that Zhulong was reluctant to part with the Tower of Time, Houtu would have really wanted to exchange it for a supreme innate treasure.
The time principle is really useful.
Chapter 1010 The Enraged Jade Emperor
Lin Zhu was sent to Baoxiang Kingdom, but Tang Sanzang and his disciples had not yet arrived.
So he went into Baoxiang City to experience the everyday life of ordinary people.
After all, he has cultivated for over three thousand years, during which he was either comprehending the Dao essence of innate Jia wood or condensing the Three Lights Divine Water. In the end, he even tempered his body with the power of stars. He still needs to relax a bit.
Meanwhile, the eldest sister has further expanded the cave heaven where Si Qing is located, but it is not yet complete.
In contrast, the disciples of Nuwa Palace had it much easier, as no one was there to urge them to cultivate.
But things are different in the Samsara Palace. Houtu has the Tower of Time in hand for the time being, so she naturally wants her disciples to cultivate well during this period.
After all, the Tower of Time will have to be returned when Zhulong comes back.
Originally, the Tower of Time was lent to the Buddhist sect, but it has now been temporarily borrowed by Houtu.
As for demanding it from Houtu, no one in Buddhism currently has the courage to do so.
Besides, they asked Houtu for a favor, but they haven't received any explicit payment yet!
While Lin Zhu was enjoying himself in Baoxiang Kingdom, Tang Sanzang and his companions arrived at Wanzishan.
These towering mountains are exceptionally steep and precipitous.
There are seven demon king caves in Wanzishan: Boyue Cave, Pixing Cave, Tuichen Cave, Yuanri Cave, Qiuguang Cave, Guangming Cave, and Siliang Cave.
Each demon king possesses extremely powerful abilities, roaming freely and dominating within a radius of tens of millions of miles.
Sun Wukong looked closely and said to Tang Sanzang, "Master, the demonic aura in this mountain is extremely thick. There must be demons causing trouble. I, Old Sun, will go and see what's going on."
Tang Sanzang instructed, "Wukong, be careful in everything."
Pigsy said, “Master, don’t worry. With Monkey King’s abilities, no demon king in the mortal realm can capture him. On the contrary, we should be careful. Monkey King isn’t here. Maybe a gust of wind will blow you away.”
Tang Sanzang said irritably, "You fool, all you do is tease your master. I now possess cultivation; how could I be blown away by some demonic wind?"
Upon hearing this, Pigsy disdainfully revealed the whites of his eyes.
Sha Wujing said, "Master, Second Brother is right. We should be careful."
This honest man speaks differently; Tang Sanzang couldn't refute him.
Sun Wukong chuckled inwardly, somersaulted out, and used his Fiery Eyes to investigate the situation in mid-air.
However, the mountain fog was so thick that even his sharp eyes couldn't penetrate it.
So he simply transformed into the appearance of a little demon and went to a cave to inquire about information.
As fate would have it, this cave is also a monkey cave, just like the Water Curtain Cave in Flower Fruit Mountain. It also has a hanging waterfall as its entrance. Inside lives a monkey spirit with jet-black fur and wearing a red robe, which is somewhat similar to that mischievous demon king.
But compared to the Mischievous Demon King, this ape is more human-like, even more so than the current Sun Wukong. It has much less body hair and a more robust physique.
'This demon looks rather familiar to me, Old Sun.'
Sun Wukong was a little curious, so he used his Fiery Eyes to take a look and saw the divine light on the ape's body.
But then alarm bells rang in his mind: 'Oh no!'
But the water monkey let out a cold snort, "Who are you exorcists again? You're asking for death!"
Eight water dragons coalesced and swept towards Sun Wukong.
This water is no ordinary water; it is naturally formed water, unpredictable and capable of being both soft and hard.
If you get entangled by this water dragon, you won't be able to get away for a while.
Over the course of thirteen years, countless exorcists have perished under the influence of this water dragon, their remains never to be found.
Sun Wukong knew this move was no simple matter, so he immediately revealed his true form, swung his golden cudgel, and smashed the eight water dragons.
The black ape recognized the newcomer and shouted, "Sun Wukong!"
Immediately afterwards, he used magic to conceal his true form, not wanting this guy to discover him.
When Sun Wukong saw that the black monkey immediately knew his name, he asked, "Who are you? How do you know my name?"
"I am the Red-Robed King, who doesn't know that you, monkey, wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago?"
Despite being entirely black, he wears a red robe and is called the Red-Robed King; one wonders what his motivation is.
Speaking of the havoc in the Heavenly Palace, although Sun Wukong knew the tricks involved, he did indeed cause a great disturbance, and he was still somewhat proud of himself.
Then he said, "I see a faint divine light emanating from you, so you must be a celestial being. Why have you descended to the mortal realm as a demon?"
The red-robed monster quickly distanced himself from the Heavenly Court, saying, "What's so great about the gods and immortals of the Heavenly Court? I'm not some kind of god or immortal from heaven, so you, the stable boy, shouldn't talk nonsense."
He knew that Sun Wukong couldn't stand being called a certain way, so he deliberately provoked him. Otherwise, if Sun Wukong pressed him for details, he might not be able to stand it and would blurt it out.
Upon hearing "弼马温" (Bima Wen, a lowly official in charge of horses), Sun Wukong's eyes turned red. "You monster, you're asking for it!"
Having said that, he took up his golden cudgel and began fighting the red-robed monster.
The red-robed monster was not intimidated at all. Eight water dragons appeared behind him, each of them resembling his arms. They stretched out their heads, opened their mouths, and bit down, quick and agile.
Sun Wukong was holding the staff in both hands, and he couldn't keep up with everyone.
So he immediately transformed into a three-headed, six-armed being, barely managing to hold his own. But the more he fought, the more alarmed he became. How could this monster, who was at the same level as him, be so powerful?
The red-robed monster was no less surprised than Sun Wukong.
'How could Sun Wukong's strength have increased so quickly in just five hundred years?' He wondered if the Buddhist sect had given the monkey special training when he was at Five Finger Mountain.
The shockwaves from their fight killed some of the weaker demons in the cave, while the stronger ones fled in panic.
Such a battle of strength is beyond the reach of minor demons like them.
Sun Wukong and the Red-Robed Monster fought their way out of the cave and into the air.
Such a huge fluctuation of power instantly attracted the attention of the other six demon kings.
They immediately headed towards this place and saw Sun Wukong from afar.
The leader was a monster wearing a yellow robe, followed by monsters wearing gold, silver, green, black, and white robes.
"It's Sun Wukong. It seems Tang Sanzang has arrived."
"Haha, not bad. If we eat Tang Sanzang's flesh, we can escape the Investiture of the Gods and regain our freedom. Let Brother Xue hold off that stable boy while we capture Tang Sanzang."
At the command of the Yellow-Robed Monster, the rest of the martial arts brothers set out.
In the Lingxiao Palace, the Jade Emperor looked at the seven strange-looking men in robes and slammed his fist on the table, exclaiming, "How does the Ziwei Emperor manage his subordinates?"
Venus stepped forward and reported, “Your Majesty, the Ziwei Emperor is still alive in the mortal realm.”
Nezha said, "His Majesty must have been so angry that he lost his mind."
The Jade Emperor was taken aback and said speechlessly, "I was indeed confused by anger. Immediately send people to investigate how these seven people descended to the mortal realm. Are those guards at the South Heavenly Gate just sitting around doing nothing?"
Wenqu Xingjun stepped out of the procession and said, "Your Majesty, they may not have gone through the South Heavenly Gate, nor through the other three Heavenly Gates."
"Then they..." The Jade Emperor said three words, then immediately understood what was going on. "Good, very good! Someone, send a decree to Doumu Yuanjun: since they don't want to serve in the Heavenly Court, then cut off their star power for me."
Chapter 1011 The Seven Constellations of the White Tiger
The star officials were shocked. Wow, is it that serious?
If only Kui Mulang descended to the mortal realm, it would naturally be a case of lifting him up high and letting him down gently. But with all seven constellations of Baihu descending to the mortal realm, isn't this disregarding the heavenly rules?
Upon receiving the Jade Emperor's decree, Doumu Yuanjun acted swiftly, immediately severing the stellar power of the White Tiger Seven Mansions.
These stellar powers can now be used to nurture the disciples of the Jie Sect. How wonderful!
At this moment, the six robed monsters had found Tang Sanzang, but then they discovered that their star power had been cut off. They looked at each other and realized that the Jade Emperor had discovered their descent to the mortal realm.
But now that the die is cast, they have no choice but to proceed; there is no turning back.
And just like that, a gust of wind suddenly arose.
What Pigsy said came true. A gust of demonic wind blew by, and Pigsy didn't even have time to unleash his supernatural powers.
Tang Sanzang disappeared.
Sha Wujing shouted, "Oh no, Second Brother, Master has been captured by a monster!"
Pigsy looked helpless. "I know, what a coincidence! It seems the spellcaster isn't just a demon. Sandy, you watch the horse and the luggage, I'll go find Monkey."
Having said that, a flash of golden light appeared on the ground, and he quickly sensed the fluctuations of the battle between Sun Wukong and the Red Robe Monster.
He approached stealthily, taking steps in mid-air, holding a nine-toothed rake, aiming it at the red-robed monster's back, "Eat my old pig's rake!"
The nine-headed phoenix's neck sprang out like a long snake, and one of its mouths caught a water dragon.
Sun Wukong seized the opportunity and smashed his staff into the red-robed monster.
The ginseng water on the surface of the red-robed monster's body was smashed to pieces, and its ribs were also broken by the golden cudgel, spraying blood mist in the air.
Just as Sun Wukong was about to press his advantage, a white light flashed, and countless sword energies attacked him and Zhu Bajie.
He swung his golden cudgel and parried with his nine-toothed rake, shattering the sword energy.
Immediately afterwards, a red ape dressed in a white robe appeared and spewed out a ball of flame.
Under his cover, the red-robed monster and the green-robed monster were able to retreat and disappear without a trace.
Sun Wukong secretly regretted it and looked at Zhu Bajie, asking, "Bajie, why did you come here instead of protecting Master?"
"Brother Monkey, Master has been captured by a monster," Pigsy said.
Sun Wukong exclaimed in surprise, "With you and Junior Brother Sha protecting Master, what kind of monster could capture him?"
