Chapter 189

"Of course it has to do with us." Su Chen stood up and paced slowly in the Water Curtain Cave. "But I can't say the relationship now, Brother Bull; I hope you can understand."

Egg Luan Erjie heard that the matter the two were discussing was very confidential, so she consciously retreated.

"Brother Su Chen, can't you even tell me?" Seeing Egg Luan Erjie leave, the Bull Niu Mowang pursued.

"No." Su Chen shook his head and said meaningfully: "In the Three Realms, some things are not good for anyone if said, and there are countless experts in the Three Realms; once some things are spoken from the mouth, it is very dangerous."

The Bull Niu Mowang was, after all, an old demon who had lived for countless years, and he immediately knew that the matter Su Chen couldn't say must involve those few existences at the top of the Three Realms, so he suppressed his curiosity and stopped asking.

"Brother Bull, I have to go out again; the layout of the Heavenly Court and the Fomen has already begun, and we cannot sit still and wait for death." Su Chen stopped and said to the Bull Niu Mowang.

"You're not going to look for that reincarnation of Jin Jin Chanzi, are you?" The Bull Niu Mowang instantly understood Su Chen's intention. "No! This is too dangerous! The Western Continent of Cattle Joy is the territory of the Fomen, and I feel that the reincarnation and tribulation of Jin Jin Chanzi has some problems; if you go alone, I'm afraid there will be danger."

Su Chen waved his hand, signaling them to be calm.

"Brother Bull, rest assured, I have my own measure." Su Chen smiled slightly and said confidently, "I won't reveal my true identity on this trip, but the time for this trip might be very long, so I will keep in touch with Flower Fruit Mountain; Brother Bull, rest assured."

Su Chen transmitted his destination for this trip to the Bull Niu Mowang with his divine sense.

"Alright." The Bull Niu Mowang thought about it again and again, and finally nodded, saying in a deep voice, "Since you have already decided, I won't persuade you anymore. But safety is paramount in everything; once it is impossible to do, withdraw immediately!"

The Bull Niu Mowang knew that in terms of calculation and planning, even if all their brothers were added together, they couldn't compare to Su Chen alone.

Since Su Chen dared to say so, he must have a considerable grasp, so he didn't persuade him anymore.

"I understand." Su Chen felt a warmth in his heart and said, "As for the contact with Flower Fruit Mountain, I will take Egg Luan Erjie with me, let her establish an intelligence network in the Western Continent of Cattle Joy, and keep in touch with Flower Fruit Mountain at any time."

"Since you have already considered it, then set off with peace of mind." The Bull Niu Mowang nodded. "I'll leave Flower Fruit Mountain to me."

Everything was discussed properly; Su Chen called Egg Luan Erjie, let her hand over the matters in her hands to Yan Que, and go to the Western Continent of Cattle Joy with him.

Egg Luan Erjie didn't ask what she was going to do; having received the order, she went to find Yan Que to hand over.

Before leaving, the Bull Niu Mowang, the Lion Camel King, and other Great Sages all came to see him off.

"Brother Su Chen, take care on the road!"

Su Chen cupped his hands at everyone and said loudly: "Everyone, wait for my good news!"

After speaking, he didn't hesitate anymore, took Egg Luan Erjie, rode a cloud, and headed toward the direction of the Western Continent of Cattle Joy.

The Western Continent of Cattle Joy was vast and boundless.

Unlike the Eastern Continent of Divine Continent where immortal mountains and blessed lands stood tall, here the Buddha light shone, and almost all human settlements had temples built.

Human kingdoms even respected Buddha as the supreme.

Su Chen rode a cloud and took Egg Luan Erjie across the Southern Continent of Southern Chanbuzhou, arriving at the territory of the Western Continent of Cattle Joy again.

"Senior, where are we going?" Egg Luan Erjie asked.

"Liushahe." Su Chen said a place name.

Although he didn't know where Jin Jin Chanzi would be born after being demoted to the mortal world and reincarnated.

But he knew that he would embark on the journey to the west in every reincarnation, but the first nine lifetimes were all eaten by the Curtain-Lifting General, the future Sha Seng.

So finding Jin Jin Chanzi's reincarnation was very simple; he just needed to wait for the rabbit by the tree near the area where Sha Seng occupied the Liushahe.

Su Chen identified the direction and took Egg Luan Erjie toward the direction of the Liushahe.

Not long after, the two arrived at their destination.

The two stood on the cloud, and a wide great river lay between heaven and earth before their eyes.

The river water was not clear, but presented a muddy yellow color, the current was rapid, rolling up huge whirlpools, making a deafening roar.

Eight hundred miles of Liushahe, three thousand weak waters deep; this river contained a part of the Tianhe water.

"Goose feathers cannot float, reed flowers sink to the bottom." Su Chen looked at the Liushahe before his eyes and recited softly.

Back then, after he descended from Fangcun Mountain and resolved the red dust karma, he used the Liushahe as a coordinate to find Wuzhuangguan.

Now it could be considered a revisit to an old place.

Su Chen slowed his speed, took Egg Luan Erjie, and arrived at the river basin where the Liushahe monument stood.

"What a fierce place." Egg Luan Erjie looked at the rolling river water, feeling the terrifying aura coming from it, and said with lingering fear.

"Indeed, this river contains a part of weak water, which can be considered a dangerous place for cultivators who are not good at water-traveling Dao." Su Chen explained to Egg Luan Erjie, "Let's go, this place is not suitable for staying long; that Curtain-Lifting General was demoted to the mortal world and is occupying this place."

Egg Luan Erjie looked at Su Chen curiously upon hearing Su Chen's words; even she, who was in charge of intelligence, didn't know that the Curtain-Lifting General was here after being demoted, and didn't know how Su Chen knew.

But she knew the measure and wouldn't ask.

Su Chen took Egg Luan Erjie, walked along the banks of the Liushahe for dozens of miles, and finally stopped at the foot of a mountain about ten miles away from the riverbank.

This mountain was not large, about several hundred meters high, but the view was very good, and he could see the river surface of the Liushahe in the distance.

"Egg Luan Erjie, next, I want to build a temple here, and I will incarnate as a monk. Your task is to take this as the center and establish an intelligence network as soon as possible, focusing on whether a monk who wants to go to the west to take the scriptures passes by, and at the same time keep in touch with Flower Fruit Mountain."

Su Chen instructed her, "Don't come near here on weekdays, unless there is news of that monk or urgent contact from Flower Fruit Mountain, then you come to find me."

"Yes, Advisor!" Egg Luan Erjie replied respectfully.

After explaining the task, Egg Luan Erjie left, and Su Chen began to build his temple.

He came to the top of that small mountain and tapped his right foot lightly on the ground.

"Boom—"

Accompanied by a dull loud noise, the whole mountain shook violently.

Ever since Su Chen obtained the Earth Mother Essence Qi from Mother Hou Tu and his Hunyuan Jin Dan Earth-traveling became perfect, his comprehension of the Earth-traveling Dao had been very deep.

Controlling mountain rocks was just easy for him.

Under his control, stones, soil, and wood flew up from the mountain and, according to Su Chen's intention, were spliced together accurately.

Foundation, walls, beams, roof...

A simple and plain temple rose from the ground at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The temple was divided into two courtyards, front and back.

The front courtyard was the main hall, and the back courtyard had a few elegant Zen rooms and a piece of wasteland.

Su Chen prepared to reclaim that wasteland as a vegetable plot.

Su Chen looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction; he walked to the gate of the temple, stretched out his finger, used his finger as a pen, and carved three large characters on the stone plaque above the lintel—Pudu Temple.
