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

We can't leave it uninstalled!

One Tang Sanzang alone is not enough.

Sun Wukong's heart was not in Buddhism.

He told all the Buddhas about this decision.

Suddenly, the Great Thunder Temple resembled a bustling market.

"Amitabha Buddha, Buddha, your disciple is willing to enter the calamity."

Such voices rose and fell.

Buddha made the final decision: "Jinzha, you shall go. You are the elder brother of the Great God of the Three Altars and Seas, and you should be able to quickly integrate into the pilgrimage team."

Jinzha was overjoyed and bowed in gratitude, saying, "Thank you, Buddha."

After bowing respectfully, he turned and left.

He was dressed entirely in white armor, with a white cloak behind him, long hair, and a general's crown, truly awe-inspiring.

Since Journey to the West is primarily led by Buddhism, it's permissible for them to allow someone to join the journey midway.

After all, the monsters that follow are not easy to deal with.

Soon after, Jinzha found the pilgrimage team and appeared at the front of the team.

Nezha rubbed his eyes, thinking he was seeing things, and tentatively called out, "Big brother!"

Jinzha smiled gently, "Third brother!"

Then he greeted Lin Zhu and the others.

"I have met the Holy Monk, the Great Sage, Marshal Tianpeng, and General Curtain-Rolling."

He was very polite, giving people the feeling of a gentleman.

Finally, he greeted Lin Zhu, "I suppose this must be True Lord Lin Zhu. Jinzha greets you."

Chapter 1044 The Frustrated Buddhist Sect

Lin Zhu also cupped his hands in greeting, "Greetings, Protector Jinzha."

He is now a Dharma protector in the West, and cannot be called a Bodhisattva or a Venerable One.

If Sun Wukong is later named the Victorious Fighting Buddha, he will be the head of the Buddhist Dharma protectors, that is, the number one fighter.

Interestingly, back in Heaven, Sun Wukong was the captain of the horse-raising team.

Upon arriving at the Buddhist temple, he became the security captain.

Nezha asked curiously, "Big brother, did you come to see me?"

Jinzha shook his head and said, "I have come here on the orders of the Buddha to protect the holy monk on his journey to the Western Paradise to obtain the scriptures."

Because of his merit in protecting the Buddha's path to enlightenment, Jinzha received special training from Buddhism and is now at the level of a Great Golden Immortal.

However, they have not attained Buddhahood, so they are merely Dharma protectors, and exclusively Dharma protectors belonging to the Tathagata.

They were like bodyguards to the Buddha.

Pigsy muttered under his breath, "Another one? Are there more coming?"

His words proved prophetic.

Because of Lin Zhu, Qinglong is now also paying attention to the Journey to the West.

He was furious when he saw that the Buddhist sect had gained another member, while the dragon clan was merely Tang Sanzang's mount.

He immediately sent a message to Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East Sea.

“Ao Guang, inform Ao Bing to join the westward journey. Why is it that the Heavenly Court already has three members, the Buddhist sect has three members, but our Dragon Clan is still just one horse?”

This isn't about fighting for a steamed bun, it's about fighting for pride!

He also delivered a drop of Azure Dragon essence blood to Ao Guang.

Ao Guang was overjoyed upon receiving the message and the Azure Dragon's essence.

"Yes, Dragon Lord!"

He soon arrived at the Heavenly Court and met Ao Bing, who was currently the star Huagai.

"Father, what brings you here?"

Ao Guang said with a joyful expression, "My son, there is great news. I received a message from the Dragon Lord today, ordering you to join the westward journey. Come with me back to the Dragon Palace, there is something I need you to refine."

Ao Bing followed Ao Guang back to the East Sea Dragon Palace, where, with the help of the Ten Thousand Dragons Formation, he refined that drop of Azure Dragon essence blood.

The strength and potential of dragons are closely related to their bloodline.

After refining the Azure Dragon's essence blood, Ao Bing's strength instantly surged, reaching the third realm of laws, and a great deal of power remained in his body that had not been digested.

So, just a few days after Jinzha joined the pilgrimage team, Ao Bing also appeared.

Upon seeing Ao Bing, Ao Lie was very excited. He raised his horse's hooves and threw Tang Sanzang off the ground, which was considered a greeting to Ao Bing.

"Brother Bing, what brings you here?"

Ao Lie, who had abandoned Tang Sanzang, transformed into human form.

“Brother Lie.” Ao Bing’s expression was a little strange. He clearly saw Ao Lie transform from a white horse into human form, and he felt somewhat uneasy.

Tang Sanzang did a somersault in the air and landed steadily.

Originally, she wanted to blame Ao Lie, but seeing that Ao Lie and Ao Bing were familiar with each other, she forgave him with great understanding.

Ao Bing cupped his hands in greeting to the crowd and said, "By order of the Dragon Lord, I am escorting the Holy Monk to the Western Paradise to retrieve the scriptures."

Lin Zhu's eyes twitched slightly. "A few more, please. That way, the main force can just crush them. What's the point of going through eighty-one tribulations?"

At this time, the pilgrimage team consisted of nine members.

This infuriated Buddha.

Each additional person means that the Buddhist community receives less merit from the Journey to the West, which is not in their best interest.

Even if Ao Bing's joining was on Qinglong's orders.

Before he could make a move, the Golden Spirit Mother also got involved.

"The Journey to the West team uses the power of my stars as their path, so it wouldn't be unreasonable for us to send one of our own members in as well, would it?"

Without waiting for Buddha's consent, a starlight appeared before Lin Zhu and the others. It was Yu Yuan, the Water Palace Star Lord and the disciple of the Golden Spirit Mother.

Yu Yuan also had a disciple named Yu Hua, who was the one who used the Blood Transformation Divine Blade.

Looking at this huge crowd, Lin Zhu knew that Tathagata must be having a headache.

First, the Jade Emperor broke the rules, so Buddha also stopped following the rules.

If a few more people come, whether or not this journey to the West will actually happen is another matter entirely.

Buddha naturally didn't want the Journey to the West team to keep growing, so he had to take the lead and pick on the weakest link.

Several powerful figures communicated remotely.

"Junior Sister Jinling, what do you mean?"

"How can you, Buddha, call me 'Junior Sister'? You allow people from the Buddhist sect to join the pilgrimage team, but I, a person from the starry sky, am not allowed to do this good deed?"

"You're just being unreasonable. Now send your men back immediately."

Golden Spirit Mother wasn't buying into Buddha's act and said to Yu Yuan, "Yu Yuan, just stay here and don't leave."

"Yes!" Yu Yuan obeyed his master's words.

The Buddha was genuinely angry, but seemed helpless.

The size of the pilgrimage team has now exceeded the limit.

He forcibly suppressed his anger and spoke to the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit, while also explaining the situation to all parties.

"If that's the case, then the journey to the west is probably not going to work."

Golden Spirit Mother didn't take it seriously. "Is it that serious? I don't believe it! However, it's fine if Yu Yuan leaves. All unnecessary personnel who joined the pilgrimage team midway should be withdrawn."

"Why should I?" The Jade Emperor disagreed, after all, he was the one who arranged for Nezha to be born.

The Buddha was also somewhat unwilling, and the situation remained deadlocked.

Houtu couldn't stand it any longer and shouted, "Look at yourselves! What kind of behavior is this? You're making your juniors laugh!"

"We have met Your Majesty."

Houtu's presence is truly exceptional; the moment her voice rang out, she brought order to the situation.

She made the final decision: "Nezha, Jinzha, Ao Bing, Yu Yuan, you should all go back."

The four men were in a dilemma, not daring to reply but also not daring not to.

Houtu snorted coldly and said, "Fellow Daoist Qinglong, Jade Emperor, Tathagata, Jinling, what, haven't I made myself clear enough?"

Azure Dragon was the first to respond, "Ao Bing, you should go back to the East Sea and resign from that job in Heaven."

"Yes, Dragon Lord!"

Even the Azure Dragon compromised, so how could the Jade Emperor, Buddha, and Golden Spirit dare to fight back? They each called their subordinates back.

Nezha felt very innocent; he had only benefited from the tribulations at Drill Mountain, and then he was gone.

Ao Bing was overjoyed. He had gotten a drop of Azure Dragon's essence blood for free and didn't have to go to the Heavenly Court to clock in for work. He was very happy.

Jinzha and Yu Yuan made a wasted trip.

Lin Zhu looked left and right, treating it like a show.

Then Houtu's voice came from beside him, 'Little Bamboo, you're in charge of the westward journey right now, so be firm, do you hear me?'

Lin Zhu quickly replied, "Little Zhu understands, Your Majesty, please rest assured."

Houtu responded approvingly and then left.

The once lively group has shrunk back to six members.

The Buddhist community was very unwilling to accept this.
