NOVEL WEB Chapter 649_2
But now with the help of Chen Sanzang, he can first eliminate this bunch of lackeys and let him collect a wave of interest.
"Congratulations to the Great Saint for regaining freedom. We should return and report, and we ask the Great Saint not to trouble us."
"Report? Report what? No need to continue guarding Old Sun, so you are liberated?"
Sun Wukong squinted his eyes slightly, looking at these Immortals and Buddhas, unable to hide the killing intent in his eyes.
"Great Saint, we are also acting on orders, please spare us."
The undisguised killing intent made the group of Immortals and Buddhas sweat coldly; no way, Sun Wukong's fierce reputation is solid. How could they, the lackeys, withstand his wrath?
"Don't worry, Old Sun will just beat you up to vent my anger, definitely won't take your lives."
Sun Wukong grinned, showing a brutal smile.
But inwardly he thought, Old Sun won't kill you, but someone does want your life, the person of your Heavenly Destiny, the Master of Great Tribulation.
In an instant, Sun Wukong transformed into dozens of clones, each holding an iron rod and charging forward.
"Watch out!"
Chen Sanzang mentioned the need for a quick battle, ensuring not even one of these Immortals and bald monks could escape, so Sun Wukong used his full power from the start.
After all, Chen Sanzang only said not to kill them, so he would just cripple these lackeys!
A group of Profound Immortals, True Immortals, and Golden Immortals, how could they be a match for Sun Wukong?
Even if these guys tried to flee separately, they couldn't escape Sun Wukong's palm. The speed of the Somersault Cloud was too fast; it could catch up in an instant, followed by a hit that knocked them down.
Sun Wukong beat them in the sky, while Chen Sanzang collected the bodies on the ground, yes, these Immortals and Buddhas bearing Sun Wukong's wrath were as good as dead.
Anyone touched by the monkey suffered at least muscular and bone injuries as the lightest wounds, while severe ones faced soul fragmentation, damaging even the True Spirit.
Every time Chen Sanzang picked one up, he smashed them with the Nine Ringed Staff directly on the head.
Then, before their Spirits could flee, he immediately used a restriction to seize the Spirits, followed by the Old Xi's transcendence.
As his power continually strengthened, Chen Sanzang's transcendence speed also increased. Compared to Taiyin Golden Immortal and beyond, due to involving the Laws, transcendence became exponentially difficult, greatly extending the time.
However, for these Immortals and Buddhas acting as prison guards, the highest strength was only Golden Immortal, mostly still at Profound Immortal and True Immortal Level, making transcending them extremely quick.
Often Chen Sanzang wouldn't finish reciting the Transcendence Scripture before Old Xi drained them dry.
Truly drained, not just cultivation power and mana, even their Spirits and minds were purified and condensed, all transformed into Chen Sanzang's nourishment.
This battle, akin to a steamroll, lasted only a minute before ending.
Thirty-nine Immortals and Buddhas were all crippled by Sun Wukong, allowing the monkey to vent all his pent-up emotions.
Transcending these Immortals and Buddhas, Old Xi used less than five minutes.
When all was finished, Old Xi immediately created the illusion of these Immortals and Buddhas leaving, unless Hongjun personally came to inspect, even a Saint wouldn't see through the facade.
"Hey, Drinking and Eating Monk, your energy has grown surprisingly fast."
Sun Wukong, with a flip, jumped in front of Chen Sanzang and immediately noticed the change in the monk's aura.
Still a Taiyin Golden Immortal, but compared to before, it had increased by at least ten percent!
"Amitabha, isn't it thanks to this group of Immortals and Buddhas for sponsoring and supporting me?"
Chen Sanzang was very grateful to this group of Immortals and Buddhas, not only sponsoring cultivation but also offering their Souls, truly kind-hearted people.
"Hehe, you Drinking and Eating Monk fit Old Sun's preferences well, only, aren't you afraid of the old bald Tathagata taking action to kill you?"
Sun Wukong had just controlled his strength and didn't kill anyone, but this Drinking and Eating Monk mercilessly killed all these Immortals and Buddhas.
Not to mention, Sun Wukong searched the surroundings and found that these Immortals and Buddhas were not only physically completely annihilated, but even their Spirits and True Spirits were refined and shattered.
This meticulous killing technique, this Drinking and Eating Monk is definitely a ruthless habitual offender!
Such a guy is the person of Heavenly Destiny to retrieve the scripture, the Tribulation Master of the Westward Journey Great Tribulation, it's simply absurd!
If Sun Wukong couldn't feel the pure Buddha Essence inside Chen Sanzang, comparable to Tathagata, he would've assumed this guy was a Demon Cultivator specializing in killing and soul refining.
"Hehe, Little Kongkong, follow the poor monk and together we'll overturn the Western Heaven; maybe take on a Buddha role there."
Chen Sanzang grabbed Sun Wukong by the shoulder, pulled out a wine gourd and took a swig before passing it to the monkey, saying with a grin.
"Alright, Old Sun will work with you, I've long been displeased with Tathagata's bald head, it's just right to seize his Buddha position!"
Taking the wine gourd, Sun Wukong didn't mind Chen Sanzang's attitude at all, the two of them left the collapsed Five Elements Mountain ruins shoulder to shoulder.
"Drinking and Eating Monk, what's your name?"
"The poor monk, Chen Sanzang, from the Great Qin Empire, ordered by Emperor Shi of the Great Qin to go to the Western Heaven Great Leiyin Temple to retrieve scriptures."
As they walked, eating and drinking along the way, the man and monkey soon reached outside the ruins.
Chen Sanzang unceremoniously mounted the little tiger and headed to the next destination, but their slow speed was remarkably touching.
When the sun rose, the man and monkey exercised their muscles slightly, then began scouring the mountains for edible food.
Their breakfast lasted at least one hour.
Once they were satisfied, the man and monkey leisurely embarked on the journey to retrieve the scriptures.
After dawdling for half an hour, Chen Sanzang often whipped out camping cloth onto the ground and told Sun Wukong he was hungry, asking the monkey to take some gold to a nearby city to pack a table of delicacies for lunch.
The monkey didn't understand this fellow's attitude, but with good food to eat, he didn't mind running errands and didn't bother to ponder.
Thus, he flipped himself over, delayed for a while, then returned with packed meals, allowing the man and the monkey to enjoy their lunch.
As Chen Sanzang said, people need food like iron and steel, missing a meal makes one hungry.
After finishing the lunch, Chen Sanzang would pull out two lounge chairs, find a shady spot, and with the monkey, start a nap, resting for the entire afternoon.
According to Chen Sanzang, in the sun's glare, the golden crow traverses the sky, the warmth is too intense and could burn his delicate skin.
With the sun beating down, it could possibly cause death by sunstroke for someone as precious as him, so extreme caution was necessary.
So, in short, the sun is too harsh during the afternoon to travel; it's best to find a cool spot, escape the heat, and rest well.
When the Golden Crow set in the west and the Jade Rabbit rose in the east, it naturally became time for Chen Sanzang to pay Sun Wukong to run errands for dinner.
After one man and monkey finished dinner, it was their free time and personal hours.
Usually, during this time, Chen Sanzang would select a beautiful female demon from the nearby mountains, enjoy some imperial entertainment watching her dance, casually giving a hand in guidance, mutually sparring, and negotiating a few minor deals.
Typically, Sun Wukong observed from afar, showing full teeth in amazement at Chen Sanzang's actions.
Is this really the reincarnation of Golden Cicada, Tathagata disciple?
Truly, "wine and meat pass through the intestines, but Buddha keeps none in the heart!"
This guy completely behaves not as a Buddhist, absolutely a defiant disciple!
Sun Wukong is amazed, yet he slightly lowered his guard against Chen Sanzang.
Chen Sanzang's deeds weren't in line with the Western Buddhist Sect, so Sun Wukong didn't need to stay cautious against him.
After reading Journey to the West, Sun Wukong knew Tang Sanzang was manipulated by Goddess of Mercy to make him wear the tightening spell!
Understanding the plot, Sun Wukong wouldn't allow the tightening spell to appear on him again!
But there was also a problem that made the monkey unhappy, which was the journey to retrieve the scriptures.
Chen Sanzang used only half an hour a day on the journey, wasting all the rest of the time!
