Chapter 1368
Su Xiaoxiao: "Dragon King, you are also a member of the gods and Buddhas; you scolded yourself too."
Dragon King of the East Sea: "I am stating a fact; this is just facing one's own problems."
Yang Jian: "This is what is meant by 'words cannot be fully trusted.' For the same thing, if the stance is different, the viewpoint is naturally different. The criticism of gods and Buddhas is sometimes not the case for the human race."
Great Sage Equal to Heaven: "Gods and Buddhas have been high above for a long time, so they are naturally accustomed to looking down on all living beings. If one day, heaven and earth are reversed, they will also have to taste the feeling of being looked down upon."
Su Xiaoxiao: "Good guy, Great Sage, you really dare to think; you actually want to overturn the gods and Buddhas."
Umaru: "As expected of the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, not comparable to ordinary people."
Sun Wukong: "I always feel like this is mocking me! 【Monster, eat my staff!】"
Jin Chanzi: "I am talking about you; you have no heroic spirit at all. You have broken free from the seal for a long time; why haven't you attacked the Heavenly Court or Lingshan?"
Sun Wukong: "You are standing and talking without back pain; I am not a Daoist Lord. Two fists are no match for four hands; naturally, I have to be cautious before acting. If I fail and have to ask everyone to save me, wouldn't that be very embarrassing?"
Han Pao Pao: "Monkey, your idea is very good; we have endless lifespans, so there is no need to fight for the gains and losses of a single morning or evening."
Sun Wukong: "Hehe, Heavenly Venerable Han understands me."
On the sea.
The six-eared macaque and the substitute monkey put down the driftwood and step onto the shore on the shallow seawater.
In just a few months, they have been blown from the Eastern Continent to a new continent.
The six-eared macaque had long planned this; originally, there was no need to cross the sea by boat like in the original work.
It has already become an immortal; riding the clouds to carry an ordinary person is no problem at all.
As a result—it tried to lift Sun Wukong to fly, but felt as if it had grabbed the Earth Immortal Realm and could not lift it at all.
"Could it be that Sun Wukong is related to the Journey to the West plan, so like Tang Seng, ordinary people cannot carry him on clouds?"
In the original work, even Sun Wukong could not carry Tang Seng to fly; this is truly extremely strange.
The six-eared macaque can only attribute it to heaven's will, not allowing gods and Buddhas to interfere too much.
As for why demons can roll up Tang Seng and run, the six-eared macaque also found a reason—nothing else, it is also heaven's will.
The eighty-one tribulations are not randomly arranged by Buddhism, but are heaven's will.
Tang Seng experiencing the tribulation is heaven's will, so the demon wind can roll people away.
"Terrifying." The six-eared macaque is secretly shocked. "Heaven's will is like a knife; I need to be careful not to capsize. Otherwise, I may not be able to get any good out of this Journey to the West plan."
Secretly vigilant in its heart, its gaze toward Sun Wukong does not change at all.
"Great King, I don't know where this is; shall we go and ask?"
"That's fine."
The substitute monkey nods. "This sea has strange winds; even your supernatural powers as an immortal cannot resist them; it is very strange. Is this a test from heaven for me, or is heaven trying to stop me from seeking immortals and inquiring about the Dao?"
Upon hearing this, the six-eared macaque feels a chill, fearing that Sun Wukong will develop the intention to retreat, so it quickly smiles: "The Great King is a spiritual species of heaven and earth; how could heaven stop the Great King from seeking immortals and inquiring about the Dao? I think this wind is helping the Great King, wanting the Great King to achieve the immortal path early."
The substitute monkey is stunned: "Is that so? If so, that would be great; we could save a lot of running around."
The two tidy up slightly and begin to look for signs of human habitation.
This is not difficult for the six-eared macaque, and it soon finds a thin, weak old man.
"Two Great Kings, spare my life; the old man only has bones left, not good to eat!" The old man looks at the two monkeys who can speak human language and have fierce appearances with terror, begging for mercy loudly.
"Speak properly!" The six-eared macaque is speechless. It is a being that wants to become an immortal and a god, and it is being treated as a demon by an ignorant person; it is truly rude. "We are spiritual species born of heaven and earth, with immortal embryos and spiritual beauty; how can we be in the same category as those demons who eat raw meat and drink blood? Don't be afraid; I am just asking you a question!"
"Yes, yes, yes, Great King, please ask."
"I ask you, what is this territory?"
"Territory? I once heard a teacher who reads books say that this place is called the Western Continent..."
The six-eared macaque is shocked: "Western Continent?!"
It actually arrived at the Western Continent all at once, directly saving the years of hardship Sun Wukong experienced in the Journey to the West.
This is a variable!
"The reason?"
The six-eared macaque glances at Sun Wukong, thinking in its heart, "I think Sun Wukong wanted to escape destiny, which delayed a lot of time, so the immortals and Buddhas couldn't wait."
"Great King, this place is wonderful." The six-eared macaque waves the old man away and looks at Sun Wukong, full of joy, inciting him: "I have heard that the Western Continent has all kinds of gods and saints with heaven-reaching abilities; if we can find one and take them as a master, we will definitely be able to cultivate an immortal body that is immortal."
Although it knows Sun Wukong should take Bodhi as a master.
However, it dares not mention it and can only use the beautiful prospects to attract Sun Wukong.
As long as Sun Wukong wants to take a master, the Slanting Moon and Three Stars Cave will definitely not be far away.
After all, the strange wind on the sea is a lesson from the past.
I think the immortals and Buddhas have long made arrangements, and Sun Wukong's path to taking a master is already set in stone.
It only needs to follow along to get some benefits and try hard to build a relationship with Sun Wukong.
