NOVEL WEB Chapter 651_2
The benefits brought by the Pig Demon to the nearby villagers were even greater than those brought by Lu Erjie back in the day, so the villagers had no hatred or fear towards the Pig Demon, but rather a bit of respect.
"Little Bai Bai, what do you think about the demon occupying this place? Should we add it to our menu?"
Chen Sanzang, while picking out a bag of wild mountain mushrooms from a few villagers, casually asked the Little White Dragon who was selecting several live fish nearby.
"It sounds like a good demon, but I'm not sure about the weight of the karma on it. We need to meet it first to gather some information that mortals can't detect. However, the Pig Demon is full of treasure, it would definitely be delicious in the pot."
Just because it protects a group of villagers doesn't mean it's a good demon; perhaps it just treats these villagers as its reserve food source.
Karma is the most direct standard for determining whether a creature is evil.
Anyone entangled in karma is generally not a good person, most are terribly wicked, with very few exceptions. The most representative figure is the Ming River Sect Master who became a Supreme.
The Blood Sea is the filthiest place on earth, yet within the Blood Sea there is a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Karma Fire Red Lotus.
This treasure automatically absorbs the world's karma to enhance its own power, and the Ming River Sect Master who gained this treasure is naturally covered with karma.
However, the Karma Fire Red Lotus can suppress fortune, so the Ming River Sect Master is not burdened by the karma. This is also why he dared to plot against Red Cloud back then, attempting to seize the Foundation of Sanctum, the Hongmeng Purple Qi, from Red Cloud.
Back then, Red Cloud, who possessed the Hongmeng Purple Qi, bore great causes and effects. Killing him would have entailed bearing great karma.
And after killing Red Cloud, besides being injured, the Ming River Sect Master suffered no subsequent repercussions.
On the other hand, Kunpeng, who acted with him, fared much worse. For having attacked Red Cloud, he was stained with great causes and effects, and after killing Red Cloud, he endured great karma and thus was constantly plagued by bad luck.
He hid in his old lair, only to be confronted by the Demon Emperor Taiyi and Di Jun, and was severely injured again, eventually being forced into the Demon Court at the time, taking the position of Demon Master, getting entangled in the Witch Demon Tribulation.
If this guy wasn't good at surviving, with very deep plans, and a top-notch escape skill, he wouldn't have escaped the fate of perishing in the Witch Demon Tribulation.
Chen Sanzang casually asked Little White Dragon a question, but in his heart, he had many questions.
He knew the plot development in Journey to the West, and Lu Erjie was Lao Zhu's wife, so how could she have been killed by Lao Zhu?
This guy, Zhu Ganglie, was already famously lustful when he was serving as the Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy in the Heavenly Court, but he was also extremely sentimental!
If she was really his wife, he would rather cherish her, how could he have killed her?
So, the death of Lu Erjie was full of suspicions, but it definitely wasn't Zhu Ganglie's doing.
"Old Xi, to what extent has Zhu Ganglie's cultivation level recovered?"
"Taiyin Golden Immortal Peak, and his physical body is very strong, he seems to have practiced the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique."
Goodness, Chen Sanzang mentally exclaimed, and was further convinced of one thing.
Zhu Ganglie is definitely a disciple of the Human Sect, otherwise, he couldn't have learned the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique.
You must know that the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique is the method of proving Dao with power, inherited from Pangu, and in the Primordial times, besides Hongjun and The Three Pure Ones, only the Twelve Ancestor Witches knew it.
And the Protecting the Sect Divine Skill, passed down to the disciples of the Three Religions, was derived from the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique, creating another slightly inferior technique—the Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique.
In fact, very few people have actually cultivated the real Nine Revolutions Profound Technique, and one of the notable figures is Erlang God, Yang Jian.
Initially, Yang Jian also practiced the Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique, which also led to another of the Four Monkey who studied it, Yuan Hong, getting entangled with his karma.
After Yang Jian's ascension, through his master Master Yuding's connections, he obtained the complete inheritance of the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique, thus transforming the Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique into the real Nine Revolutions Profound Technique.
Regarding Sun Wukong in the original Journey to the West, he learned the Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique and after becoming the Victorious Fighting Buddha, he remained unrelated to the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique.
"Old Xi, should we preemptively transcend Zhu Ganglie?"
Forcefully kidnapping a mortal as a wife, just the right excuse to kill Zhu Ganglie, catching the Heavenly Court and the Buddhist Sect off guard.
"Up to you, but I've discovered something else that's interesting."
Old Xi, with a little sigh in his tone, then transmitted a piece of information to Chen Sanzang.
Gao Cuilan, on the surface, appeared to be just a mortal woman, but inside her, there was an immortal energy that wasn't weak, reaching the level of an Earth Immortal.
In the information transmitted by Old Xi, he also sensed a peculiar true spirit breath within Gao Cuilan's spirit.
Through reincarnation perception tracking, the previous incarnation of this true spirit breath was none other than a Rabbit Spirit!
Goodness! Chen Sanzang exclaimed inwardly several times!
Lu Erjie's true spirit was residing within Gao Cuilan's spirit and perfectly merged, meaning there was only one explanation: Gao Cuilan is the reincarnation of Lu Erjie!
Just in an instant, Chen Sanzang thought of many issues, and once connected, the previous confusion suddenly became clear.
It can be said that Zhu Ganglie definitely killed Lu Erjie more than ten years ago, but it was not to silence her, it was to help Lu Erjie rebuild her foundation!
Lu Erjie was just an ordinary rabbit spirit before, with poor background and exhausted potential, wanting to become an immortal was nearly impossible.
However, Zhu Ganglie had a way to enhance Lu Erjie's original foundation, so through his connections, he helped Lu Erjie reincarnate as a human!
After Lu Erjie successfully reincarnated, Zhu Ganglie acted as a protector, not only infusing immortal power into Gao Cuilan, but also spending Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to help her improve her original potential.
Once Lu Erjie's true spirit awakens and fully controls the immortal power within her, Gao Cuilan can become an immortal on the spot.
With Zhu Ganglie's connections, allowing Lu Erjie to gain even the lowest rank, Secondary Ninth Rank Divine Position in the Heavenly Court under the identity of Gao Cuilan, would be a breeze!
Therefore, Zhu Ganglie is a deep lover!
Understanding all this, Chen Sanzang couldn't help but click his tongue a few times, especially when he looked at Little White Dragon Ao Lie, his eyes were filled with pity.
Comparing Zhu Ganglie to Ao Lie, the difference in love affairs is as wide as the sky and the ground!
Zhu Ganglie not only won the beauty, but the beauty is also absolutely devoted to him, even gifting him a splendid inheritance free of charge.
And Little White Dragon? Not only did he wear a verdant hat, but he was also severely injured by his wife and her lover, pitiful is not enough to describe it.
Fuling Mountain, Yunzhan Cave.
Sun Wukong long ago sensed the aura of the Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy.
Monkeys who have read Journey to the West naturally know that after being banished to the mortal world, this guy nestled here.
Upon arriving at Gao Village, he felt the enormous demon energy mixed with immortal energy, identical to the power of the Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy.
"Tianpeng, open the door, Old Sun has come to visit you."
The thundering knock on the door shook the nearby mountains and rocks.
The laughter in the monkey's eyes wasn't hidden at all, causing Zhu Ganglie to roll his eyes directly.
"Get lost! When I was banished to the mortal realm, you damn monkey should know what happened? Stop looking at it as a joke!"
This monkey was bad in the Heavenly Court; those immortal wines and delicacies in the Tianpeng Mansion, who knows how much were stolen by this monkey? When he got tricked and banished to the mortal world, this monkey must have been laughing in secret.
"A pig body isn't bad, it's quite fitting to your nature, lazy and lustful."
"Roll roll roll! There's not a single good word in your monkey's mouth! This is called acceptance, enjoying the present, as for being lustful, it's all a plot to tarnish my reputation!"
Zhu Ganglie hates the Jade Emperor and the Buddhist Sect to the core now.
