Chapter 566 The general trend, Jade Emperor's solution
"Uh... well... just give him a beating. You don't have to kill him." Sun Wukong also knew Tathagata's identity. If he killed him, it would be a big disaster.
Now that I have said it, it is not certain whether this being who claims to be the Immortal Emperor of Immortality can kill Tathagata.
"I can help you beat up Tathagata, but if you join my army, you must obey my orders, even if I make you eat shit." Zhou He said calmly.
"Okay!" Sun Wukong spat out such a word.
When Sun Wukong finished speaking, he felt a blur in front of his eyes, and then, a terrifying aura came from high in the sky.
He's back, he's back in his own body.
"I'm going to suffer, I'm going to suffer." Looking at his giant palm that covered the sky and the sun, Sun Wukong was shocked.
However, the next second, a colorful divine light was seen rising from Sun Wukong's body.
"The laws of heaven and earth!"
A soft drink sounded.
Then I saw an illusory figure begin to rise rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, he already had a body of ten thousand feet.
Sun Wukong recognized that the figure was the Immortal Emperor of Immortality whom he had just joined.
When Zhou He's figure appeared, an aura that was not weaker than Tathagata burst out, completely eliminating Tathagata's terrifying aura.
Although Zhou He's figure is already ten thousand feet tall, it is really not enough to see Tathagata's Dharma form, which is larger than the planet.
Zhou He raised his hand, made a fist, and smashed it towards the palm that was as big as the moon.
Just like an ant facing a giant elephant, there is a strong sense of contrast.
"boom!"
After a loud noise.
Tathagata's palm stopped falling.
"Kakaka..."
The sound of shattering continued, and a large number of cracks appeared on Tathagata's palm.
"Boom!"
Tathagata's palm cracked and the fragments flew away in the wind.
The Tathagata's Dharma was missing a palm, but it was restored with a flash of golden light.
"Amitabha!" Tathagata clasped his hands together and recited the Buddha's name.
A grand, resounding, Buddha's chant resounded throughout the entire world of Journey to the West.
"Is that you?" Tathagata obviously recognized Zhou He.
"Why are you stopping me?" Tathagata asked.
"Why did you stop me? Then I ask you, why did you do it?" Zhou He did not answer, but asked instead.
"Five hundred years ago, Sun Wukong caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace, killed countless heavenly soldiers and generals, and committed heinous crimes. Now, he escapes from the trap and kills all living beings."
"Today, I will kill him." Tathagata said calmly.
"You are right, but I have been imprisoned for five hundred years, and my heinous crime has been atoned for."
"As for killing creatures, is there such a thing? Why didn't I see it?"
Zhou He said, but saw the thug wave his hand.
Miss Duan, who had been beaten without a hair left, suddenly came to life and fell to the ground alive.
Not only Miss Duan, but also Mr. Kong Kong, Tian Zanjiao and Beast Form Fist.
They all looked confused and didn't understand the situation yet.
However, when I saw the vision in the sky, I almost wet my pants in fear.
He didn't dare to ask, he didn't dare to move, he just stayed where he was, shivering.
"Both life and death have their destiny. You actually dare to tamper with the destiny and resurrect others at will. Aren't you afraid of the consequences of karma?" Tathagata said in a deep voice.
"Oh? Karma will bring you back? Then you resurrected the evil Zhugang Hyena and the fish demon, why aren't you afraid of Karma coming back?" Zhou He chuckled.
After hearing the words, Tathagata was silent for a moment and said: "I am following the way of heaven. Go ahead and hand Sun Wukong over to me. His crimes still need to be atoneed."
Zhou Hedao: "Atonement? Accompany this little monk for more than ten years to go to Tianzhu to obtain scriptures, and then confer the title of little Buddha?"
"That's right." Tathagata didn't object.
"Mr. Zhou is right. I really want to accompany this guy to get Buddhist scriptures, and then become a Buddha who eats fast and chants Buddha's name???"
When Sun Wukong thought about how he would face Tathagata every day and sit in the temple chanting sutras, he became frightened: "No, I won't be able to go even if I die."
"Mr. Zhou, I am now your subordinate. You must protect me. I don't want to get those scriptures." Sun Wukong said quickly.

Zhou He turned his head, nodded towards Sun Wukong, and then looked at Tathagata: "I have already said that he has been suppressed for five hundred years and his sins have been eliminated. How can he still have to atone for his sins?"
"Five hundred years are not enough for his sin," Tathagata said.
"I said, five hundred years is enough!" Although Zhou He's voice was flat, it contained majesty and made people surrender unconsciously.
Tathagata remained silent, his eyes fixed on Zhou He. Finally, he said, "I owe you a favor. Give Sun Wukong to me."
"How about you let Sun Wukong go and I owe you a favor?" Zhou He said.
"..." Tathagata didn't know how to answer the question for a moment.
"This is the general trend, this is inevitable, don't make any mistakes." Tathagata said in a deep voice.
"Is the general trend? Self-mistaken? Haha, today, I am going to take Sun Wukong away. If you don't accept it, come and fight."
"Beat me. What you said is right." Zhou He said calmly.
"Okay, very good, then I will fight you today." Tathagata said angrily: "Let your true body come forward. You, a small spiritual clone, cannot stop it."
Tathagata obviously also saw that Zhou He was just a clone of his spiritual mind, not his true body.
"I'm still in seclusion, so I just have to fight with you." Zhou He said calmly.
Although his spiritual clone can only maintain a fighting state for a quarter of an hour at most, he cannot be cowardly, and he must be tough when he needs to be.
"Are you...are you looking down on me?" Tathagata said somewhat sullenly.
Even his city could not help laughing.
At this time, Sun Wukong was shocked when he heard Zhou He say that his true body could not come.
Now he is a little panicked. Can this spiritual clone really resist Tathagata?
Forget about beating Tathagata or whatever. All he wanted in his heart now was that Zhou He could take him away.
He would rather die than go to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures and then become a monkey monk who rings bells and chants Buddha's name.
A quarter of an hour has passed, and Zhou He also knows that with the help of the spiritual clone, there must be nothing he can do against Tathagata.
The final result of the battle must be that this spiritual clone is killed by Tathagata, and then successfully subdues Sun Wukong to go to the West to obtain scriptures.
It's not easy to disturb him, so if there was to be a fight, Zhou He would definitely take Sun Wukong away and wait for the main body to come back and regain the place.
Zhou He's expression remained unchanged as he stood proudly in the void, facing the Tathagata who was bigger than the earth.
Tathagata took action.
As the supreme Buddhist, how can he endure it?
However, at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared.
"Tathagata, since Sun Wukong has joined this fellow Taoist, then forget it."
The speaker is the Jade Emperor, whose full name is: Supreme Kaitian Holding Talisman Yuli Hanzhenti Dao Jinque Cloud Palace Nine Domes Yuli Wandao Wuwei Dao Mingdian Haotian Golden Tower Supreme Jade Emperor Forgiveness Great Heavenly Lord Xuanqiong High God.
The Jade Emperor, the leader of all immortals, is in charge of the three realms of heaven, earth and man.
Zhou He was a little surprised that the Jade Emperor actually spoke for him?
Sun Wukong was even more surprised. You must know that five hundred years ago, the Heavenly Palace where he made a big fuss was the facade of the Jade Emperor.
Sun Wukong could not figure out why the Jade Emperor, whom he rebelled against five hundred years ago, would speak for him.
"Jade Emperor?" Tathagata also couldn't understand why the Jade Emperor did this.
The dispute between Buddhism and Taoism has existed since ancient times.
The Jade Emperor belongs to the Taoist lineage, and no matter what, he will never stand on the side of Buddhism and Taoism.
However, the rise of Buddhism and Taoism is indeed the general trend, and no one can stop it, not even the Jade Emperor, nor the Taoist saints.
The Jade Emperor smiled and clapped his hands.
Immediately, a figure who looked exactly like Sun Wukong appeared in front of them.
"This is the six-eared macaque. From now on, he will be Sun Wukong, and Sun Wukong will be the six-eared macaque." said the Jade Emperor.
Tathagata was silent for a moment, and his mood gradually calmed down. He glanced at Zhou He, and then pronounced a Buddha's name: "Amitabha, that's good, that's good, so be it."
Zhou He looked at the six-eared macaque, pondered for a moment, and said, "That's it, Sun Wukong, from now on you will be the six-eared macaque, and he will be Sun Wukong."
"Ah? He has taken over the title of my demon king, Sun Wukong? Mr. Zhou, I..." Hearing this, Sun Wukong subconsciously wanted to refuse.
But Zhou He immediately reprimanded: "Shut up, do you want to be a free six-eared macaque, or do you want to eat fast in front of the Tathagata every day and chant the Buddha's name for thousands of years?"
Sun Wukong also reacted at this time and said quickly: "Six-eared macaque, I want to be a free six-eared macaque. From today on, I am a six-eared macaque."
"Brother Sun, I beg you, go and learn the scriptures. If you come to me in the future, you will definitely treat me as a brother." Sun Wukong said seriously to the six-eared macaque.
The six-eared macaque smiled slightly and said, "Brother, I want to thank you very much for giving me this opportunity."
"Now that this is over, I will take my leave."
Zhou He cupped his hands towards the two of them, and then with a wave of his hand, he took Sun Wukong and the three trembling soy sauces away and disappeared.
…
"Tathagata, then I will leave first and leave this place to you." The Jade Emperor said and also left here.
The Tathagata was left alone here, silent.
Immediately, the memory of the six-eared macaque was cleared, and then the memory of Sun Wukong was inserted.
At the same time, all the scenes where Zhou He appeared were eliminated from Chen Xuanzang's memory.
Even that young lady was still wiped out in ashes.
The plot has returned to the starting point, where 'Sun Wukong' was hit by a Tathagata's divine palm onto a vast prairie.
Chen Xuanzang took the Indeterminate Flying Ring given by Miss Duan and turned it into a tightening charm, and put it on the head of 'Sun Wukong'.
Zhu Gangxi, Sha Wujing, and Sun Wukong all gathered together, and the four masters and disciples embarked on the road to the West to learn scriptures.
…
"Sun Wukong, from today onwards, you can change your name. Should you choose one yourself, or should I help you choose one?"
Coming to a beautiful cliff, Zhou He said to Sun Wukong.
"Yuan Kong." Sun Wukong seemed to have already thought about it.
"Yes, Yuan Kong." Zhou He nodded. Not to mention, Sun Wukong's naming skills were pretty good.
Zhou He looked at the three people standing aside who didn't dare to breathe.
He said: "You three, are you willing to join me?"
The three young masters and Kong Kong were stunned for a moment, and then nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, we are willing to join His Majesty's command."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for saving my life. I am willing to swear allegiance to Your Majesty to the death." Beast-shaped Fist knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists respectfully.
When the other two people saw this, they also reacted. They immediately knelt down on one knee and said respectfully: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for saving my life. I am willing to swear allegiance to Your Majesty to the death."
The three of them also learned from the conversation between Zhou He and Tathagata that it was Zhou He who used his magic power to pull them back from the underworld.
In addition, after seeing Zhou He's powerful strength, it is also a dream to embrace him and join him.
"Well, get up. You three are too weak. I have made a plan for you to become stronger."
As he spoke, Zhou He flicked his finger, and three streams of light disappeared into their minds.
At the same time, three storage bags containing some heavenly and earthly treasures, cultivation resources, and magic weapons fell in front of the three of them.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The three of them looked overjoyed.
"Mr. Zhou, where's mine? Where's mine?" Yuan Kong said excitedly.
"I can't live without you."
With a flick of his finger, Zhou He sent in a technique and at the same time, there was also a storage bag.
Sun Wukong didn't care about the technique, but looked at the storage bag first.
Then, a bright light lit up in Sun Wukong's eyes.
Obviously, the resources in this storage bag exceeded his imagination.
"Haha, thank you Mr. Zhou. I will definitely work hard in the future."
"By the way, you three, we will all be colleagues from now on. I hope you will forgive me for any offense you have made before. If you come to me for anything in the future, ah, it's me, Old Yuan. I will definitely take care of it for you." Yuan Kong laughed.
He said.
"Yes, yes, yes." The three of them bowed tremblingly to Yuan Kong.
There was no way, the scene when the three people died was still vivid in their minds, Sun Wukong was really powerful beyond their imagination.
Especially Master Kong Kong, he clearly had the upper hand, even the golden cudgel was smashed by him.
Then, relying on his physical body, he resisted his strongest combination of magical powers, and then he roared to death with his voice.
"Okay, Yuan Kong, you go back to Huaguo Mountain now, gather your original men, and gather Huaguo Mountain."
"The three of you, while improving your strength, are slaying demons in the world and growing your own momentum."
"My true body is still in retreat and it will take some time to break through. When the time comes, my true body will come to find you." Zhou He ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The three young masters in the sky responded with clasped fists.
"Okay, Mr. Zhou, I haven't been back to Huaguo Mountain for a long time. I wonder how my group of monkeys are doing." Yuan Kong said with a smile.
"Yuan Kong, please be honest with me, especially don't hurt innocent people. I'm not here in my body. If you cause any trouble, you will have to suffer it yourself." Zhou He reminded.
"Don't worry, I, Old Yuan, am not a fool." Yuan Kong said, patting his chest.
Zhou He nodded, then his body swayed and disappeared from the place.
"You three, I'm going to take the first step. I'll give you these three monkey hairs. Blow them when you encounter danger."
Yuan Kong left behind three vellus hairs and disappeared.
Young Master Kong and the other three carefully put the monkey hair into the storage bag, and then the three of them talked for a while, held each other's fists, and left.
