Chapter 41: Journey to the West pre-plot has been delayed again
After hearing the Jade Emperor's words, Taishang Laojun was stunned for a moment and blurted out: "That's right?"
“What’s wrong??”
Taishang Laojun was also a little paralyzed at this time. Did you come to him just to ask this question?
Moreover, the Ruyi Golden Cudgel used to be his, but now it belongs to Sun Wukong.
The Ruyi Golden Cudgel is just an acquired spiritual treasure. Even if it is held by Daluo Jinxian, it feels like a piece of rubbish. After all, it is better to hold the Ruyi Golden Cudgel when it is at the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal, and Sun Wukong is worthy of it.
After holding the Ruyi Golden Cudgel, your strength will increase more than others.
The Jade Emperor nodded and slowly said: "Old Lord, do you know that your Ruyi Golden Cudgel...has given birth to a weapon spirit?!"
"What!!"
"The Ruyi Golden Cudgel has given birth to a weapon spirit??"
Taishang Laojun was shocked, his eyes widened, and he looked at the Jade Emperor with disbelief.
The Jade Emperor said calmly: "Tai Shang Laojun, will I lie to you?"
Taishang Laojun frowned and said, "How did the Jade Emperor learn about this?"
The Jade Emperor waved his hand, and a mirror appeared in front of Taishang Laojun, and he said: "Laojun, that Lin Tian is the weapon spirit born from the Ruyi Golden Cudgel..."
"Moreover, the Tao body has been condensed."
"If my guess is correct, it should be the monkey Sun Wukong who helped him create the Taoist body."
"However, the realm of cultivation is only the realm of earthly immortals."
The Jade Emperor's words made Taishang Laojun frown.
"Um, this..."
"Jade Emperor, I don't know this either!!"
Taishang Laojun wanted to complain very much in his heart. How could the gadgets he threw away with special codes still give birth to spiritual consciousness and become weapon spirits?!
There is a huge difference between a magic weapon with spiritual consciousness and a weapon spirit and one without a weapon spirit.
Because the former can be cultivated, but the latter cannot be cultivated.
Taishang Laojun unexpectedly thought of something and couldn't help but stare: "Jade Emperor, what do you mean..."
The Jade Emperor squinted his eyes and said: "The problem with Sun Wukong turning into this appearance should be the golden cudgel!!"
After hearing what the Jade Emperor said, Taishang Laojun finally knew what the Jade Emperor meant.
Damn it, this Jade Emperor is plotting against him!!
Because the Ruyi Golden Cudgel was made by Taishang Laojun.
So now, I want him, Taishang Laojun, to get involved and deal with this matter.
Mom sells batches!!
However, Taishang Laojun could not say anything.
After all, this is indeed the case. The Ruyi Golden Cudgel was made by Taishang Laojun, so he is required to handle the Golden Cudgel.
"Hey, then I have no choice but to take action..."
Taishang Laojun shook his head helplessly. Regarding the Journey to the West, even the Taoists would not have much merit in the end!
Not to mention, it was in his hands.
Buddhists use the big head, Taoists use the small head.
Although Taishang Laojun and the Jade Emperor are the ones in control, they will not share much merit in the end.
This makes Taishang Laojun feel like he is working in vain.
After that, Taishang Laojun planned to go to Huaguo Mountain himself.
He also wanted to see what the weapon spirit of the golden cudgel was all about.
…
Let’s go back to Huaguo Mountain.
Nezha originally wanted to persuade Sun Wukong to go to the Heavenly Court, but Sun Wukong refused to go to the Heavenly Court because he couldn't get enough oil and salt. He even gave Nezha a large pot of monkey wine and made him drunk.
"Hey, monkey, come on, drink!!"
Nezha was holding a large pot of monkey wine. He was so drunk that he couldn't tell the north, south, and east. He wanted to drink it with Sun Wukong.
"Go, go, go to sleep!"
Sun Wukong immediately knocked Nezha to the ground and fell asleep.
"Brother Lin Tian, let's..."
"Shhh!!"
Before Sun Wukong finished speaking, Lin Tian gave him instructions not to make any noise.
"Monkey, don't talk, be quiet."
At the same time, Lin Tian also used sound transmission to contact Sun Wukong: "We should be under surveillance by the Jade Emperor."
"I feel that there is a strange force, as if it is watching us."
Sun Wukong sent a message and said: "I, Sun Wukong, can also feel it, but it's not very clear..."
Lin Tian: "Monkey, we have to find a way. We can't be monitored by that guy all the time."
Sun Wukong: "What should we do, brother Lin Tian, where is that old dog of the Jade Emperor spying on us?"
Lin Tian suddenly frowned and looked at Nezha lying on the ground...
"Could it be Nezha?"
Lin Tian's eyes narrowed into a thin line.
Sun Wukong's heart skipped a beat: "Nezha??"
Lin Tian nodded and sent a message to Sun Wukong in his mind: "If my guess is correct, it should be the Jade Emperor's old dog who planted some kind of secret surveillance method on Nezha..."
After hearing Lin Tian's words, Sun Wukong's face became gloomy and ugly.
"呲呲......"
Sun Wukong grabbed the back of his hand wildly and gritted his teeth: "Then what should we do?"
"I, Mr. Sun, don't know how to break through the secrets of surveillance!!"
What Sun Wukong said was naturally transmitted to Lin Tian.
Lin Tian thought for a while and then said slowly: "There is only one way..."
Sun Wukong asked curiously: "What can I do?"
"Lock Nezha up."
"Well, by the way, we will go to heaven again in two months."
Lin Tian said.
"Why two months later?"
Sun Wukong looked puzzled.
Lin Tianzhi rolled his eyes: "I want you to practice in seclusion for two months, is that okay?"
It is naturally impossible for Lin Tian to tell Sun Wukong that his current mission is to delay the plot for two months in order to obtain the mission completion reward.
I delayed going to heaven to become the Monkey King for two months, and the reward for completing the mission was a magical power selection roll!
Lin Tian naturally wanted to get it very much.
Moreover, if this task is not completed, he will not be able to do the next task, right?
At this time, Sun Wukong listened to Lin Tian's words, nodded, and murmured: "Okay, everything, just do what you said, brother Lin Tian..."
"Then, Nezha will find a place to put him under house arrest first??"
Sun Wukong asked.
Lin Tian nodded: "Yes, no matter what, this is also to protect Nezha. If Nezha fails to complete the matter this time, he will inevitably be punished by the Jade Emperor's old dog when he returns."
"Okay, then I will follow what you said, Brother Lin Tian!!"
Sun Wukong said.
Immediately, Lin Tian and Sun Wukong dragged the drunk Nezha into a room in Shuiliandong.
During the time when Lin Tian came to Sun Wukong Huaguo Mountain, he also built the internal structure of Shuilian Cave into a huge mansion.
From the outside, it looks like a mountain, but inside, there is a different world.
Nezha was imprisoned in one of the rooms by them.
Then, arrange for the old ape to deliver food and other things to Nezha every day to ensure that Nezha will not be hungry.
As for letting Nezha go, it is impossible for the time being.
As for Lin Tian and Sun Wukong, they went to retreat to practice.
Turn on the formation and cover the entire Huaguo Mountain. As long as cultivators below the quasi-sage level come, they will not be able to enter the Huaguo Mountain.
If a strong person in the quasi-sage realm takes action, Huaguoshan's formation will be unstoppable.
But there is no way, Lin Tian can only do this now, in order to complete the task.
Moreover, neither Taishang Laojun nor the Jade Emperor will take action easily.
Just like that, the delay in the progress of the plot began.
…
…
At the same time, in Heaven, Nezha had been to Huaguo Mountain for several days, but there was still no news, and the Jade Emperor's secret surveillance method also failed inexplicably, and he didn't know what happened.
Anyway, even after seeing Nezha drunk, his secret surveillance method failed inexplicably.
The Jade Emperor also had doubts. Could it be Sun Wukong who had caused his secret surveillance skills to be discovered by Sun Wukong?
But after thinking about it, I thought it was impossible.
Because Sun Wukong's cultivation level is only that of Taiyi Golden Immortal. Even if he saw that Nezha had been under surveillance by a secret technique, he could not break it.
As for Lin Tian, it is even more impossible.
Lin Tian's cultivation level is even weaker, only at the Earth Immortal level. How could he break his secret surveillance technique?!
"Is it possible that a powerful person with a quasi-sage level is taking action in secret??"
The Jade Emperor frowned and murmured.
"Is it you again?"
“Ancestor Bodhi??”
"What exactly is your purpose?!"
The Jade Emperor now believes that behind Lin Tian and Sun Wukong is Patriarch Bodhi, the superpower in the quasi-sage realm. Patriarch Bodhi's cultivation realm is even better than that of the Tathagata Buddha and the Jade Emperor.
Be high.
Patriarch Bodhi is the senior brother of Tathagata Buddha. At the same time, he is also a clone of the saint Zhunti, just like Lao Tzu's clone Taishang Laojun.
However, the difference in strength between the clones is different.
The cultivation state of Lao Tzu's clone, Taishang Laojun, is only in the middle stage of the quasi-sage state, while Patriarch Bodhi is in the late stage of the quasi-sage state.
In fact, this is why Taishang Laojun wants to refine elixirs, not cultivation. Otherwise, his cultivation level should have surpassed Patriarch Bodhi long ago.
Although Patriarch Bodhi is a Taoist, he is a clone of Saint Zhunti, and his actions should also be controlled by Saint Zhunti.
In other words, the behavior of Patriarch Bodhi must have been done by the Chunti Saint??
"But why did Saint Zhunti do this?"
"This will delay the journey to the west, and what good will it do to them?!"
The Jade Emperor couldn't think of his sister, he was just confused.
If Saint Zhunti wanted to do this, then the Jade Emperor really didn't know what the purpose of Saint Zhunti was.
After all, this journey to the west is beneficial to the Buddhist side. Saint Zhunti hopes that the journey to the west can catch up with the progress as soon as possible. Shouldn't he want to delay it?
"Is it possible that I have always guessed wrongly, that behind Lin Tian and Sun Wukong, it is not Patriarch Bodhi??"
The Jade Emperor's head hurt just thinking about it, and he couldn't think of a reason no matter how hard he thought about it.
