Chapter 373

"Ugh~"

"Ugh..."

Tang An's steps were unsteady, and she leaned against a tree and started vomiting.

When she looked closely, under the tree she was leaning on, there was a pile of rotten meat, with green liquid, and some hair stained with mucus.

"Ugh..."

Tang An turned around and continued to vomit, vomiting until her stomach was empty and only yellow water remained, vomiting until her eyes were red, and she shed tears of physiological discomfort.

Seeing this, Nezha unleashed his Fire-Tipped Spear, ignited a raging fire, and burned the bones around the area to ashes.

But the corpse of one person is easy to burn, and ten people are easy to burn, but right now, skulls were like ridges, and skeletons were like forests.

Human hair was matted into felt, and human flesh and skin rotted into mud and dust. Human tendons were wrapped around the trees, dry and scorched, shining like silver. It was truly a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, with a foul smell that was unbearable.

His fire couldn't burn away the smell in the air, and it even triggered a foul smell of scorched rotten meat.

Tang An vomited until her body was limp and weak, sitting on the ground, looking up at the Lion Camel Ridge in front of her.

This was the first time in a long time that she felt afraid.

It was a fear felt from the heart, a chill that penetrated the bones.

Yang Jian came back to his senses, wind generated in his palms, blowing away the complex and nauseating aura, wanting to make Tang An feel better.

Even they, who had seen the scene of countless deaths in the two armies during the Conferring of the Gods period, couldn't help but shrink back from the scene before them.

Not to mention Tang An, who hadn't experienced any life and death.

In the current situation, Tang An not being scared silly was already considered her strong will and strong heart.

Sun Wukong also came back to his senses, took two steps back, and almost tripped.

That the Great Sage Equal to Heaven could be scared like this shows what kind of unimaginable scene it must have been.

"This is the foot of Lingshan, the Western Paradise."

Tang An's throat rolled, forcibly suppressing the discomfort in her heart, "What a 'Western Paradise'."

"Master." Sun Wukong stepped forward to support Tang An, "Are we still going forward?"

Tang An nodded, her body still trembling, but she said firmly: "Go!"

No matter how difficult it was, so many barriers had been broken through; this barrier must also be broken through!

"So many lives, there should be an explanation."

Yang Jian walked over and supported Tang An's other hand.

"Master, hold steady, let's go together."

"Good!"

The four master and disciples looked ahead, their eyes full of determination.

Nezha opened the way in front, burning away all the images that made Tang An feel uncomfortable.

At Kong Xuan's dojo.

At the peak of the cliff, Kong Xuan was meditating, surrounded by five-colored divine light.

A bird with a white body flapped its wings and flew in front of him, chirping.

Kong Xuan opened his eyes, "Have they arrived?"

Others might not know, but he was once the Peacock Great Wisdom King Bodhisattva of the Western Sect. He was still very clear about what Lion Camel Ridge was like.

When he flashed and reappeared, he was already stepping into the air outside the cliff.

"I am always worried about you leading them through the tribulation."

Just as Kong Xuan wanted to flash away, a figure appeared before him first.

"Zhunti Saint?"

"To stop me from helping her, you actually led a Saint to come and block me? The Western Sect really thinks highly of this seat."

Zhunti didn't speak, but in his steps, he opened a magic array, covering the entire dojo and trapping Kong Xuan.

"I heard you are the number one person under the Saint."

"Now, do you dare to play a game of chess with this venerable one?"

As Zhunti waved his hand, a transparent chessboard with golden light appeared between the two.

"It seems that you old immortal didn't give this seat a chance to refuse." Kong Xuan didn't bother to give him face anymore.

"The chessboard is the array, and Dharma is the piece; if you win, you can break the array and get out."

"What if this venerable one doesn't respond?"

Zhunti smiled lightly and said "Amituofo", then immediately sat cross-legged beside the chessboard in mid-air.

Kong Xuan carefully observed the array Zhunti had set up; Zhunti really didn't lie, he hid the array eye in the chessboard, and only by winning the chess game against him was the fastest way to break the array.

"Very good, since that's the case, then come!"

"It's just a Saint, this seat has nothing to fear."

At the same time, at the Heavenly Court.

Zhao Gongming was just about to ride his black tiger down to the mortal world, but there was an extra touch of golden light in front of him.

"Eastern Buddha?"

Why did Maitreya Buddha come at this time, and why did he specifically seek him out?

"Amituofo." Maitreya Buddha turned to look at Zhao Gongming, "This poor monk came here to repay the cause and effect."

Zhao Gongming couldn't understand at all, and didn't want to listen to so much nonsense.

"I don't care what plans your Lingshan has. But if anything happens to Sister An within your Lingshan territory, I, Zhao Gongming, although I am the God of Wealth, also know a little about the methods of killing!"

Maitreya Buddha always maintained a smile, "Who exactly are you trying to save, Tang An, or her?"

"If you don't have an answer in your heart, why not think about it carefully?"

"Think my ass." Zhao Gongming flicked his large sleeves, "Whether it's Sister An or my sister, I, Zhao Gongming, must save them!"

"Move aside quickly, otherwise don't blame me for taking action!" He was not a person with a good temper.

"Amituofo."

Maitreya Buddha was never in a hurry, never angry. "But if you save her, she won't be able to come back."

"If you save her, she won't be able to come back."

"How exactly do you choose, have you really thought it through?"

It was also during this delay that Tang An and her group had already reached Lion Camel Ridge.

Tang An took off the three willow leaves from her brow and handed them to Sun Wukong, Yang Jian, and Nezha respectively.

Then she took out the leaves of the Seven Treasure Tree and gave them to the three of them, as well as Jiuyue and Xiaotian Quan.

"These demons each have magic treasures. The most difficult one to deal with is the Yin-Yang Qi Bottle."

"If you encounter life-threatening danger, you can use the willow leaf plus the leaf of the Seven Treasure Tree to forcibly break the bottle and escape with your life."

Tang An was most worried about Sun Wukong, because whether in the drama or the original book, it was Sun Wukong who was taken into the Yin-Yang Qi Bottle.

Of course, the plot might change with her, so she gave the three life-saving hairs that the Bodhisattva should have given Wukong in the original drama, which became willow leaves in her case, to the three disciples respectively.

No matter who was taken away by the Yin-Yang Qi Bottle, they should be able to save their lives.

As for Xiaotian Quan and Jiuyue, they didn't belong to the original plot, so the possibility of being taken away was not high. Even if there was that possibility, the leaves of the Seven Treasure Tree were enough to help them escape with a glimmer of life.

"Sister, what about you?"

"Me? I have a body full of magic treasures, and things of the Saint; I am safer than all of you." Tang An smiled and rubbed Jiuyue's head.

"You and Xiaotian Quan had better not participate in the battle; if there is danger, remember to hide, you know?"

Although Jiuyue was very likely to be a variable, thinking of the way Jiuyue desperately saved her last time, Tang An still felt unbearable.

She believed in Jiuyue; even if there might be unknown risks in Jiuyue, she didn't want anything to happen to Jiuyue.

Jiuyue shook her head, "Sister, this time Jiuyue can protect you, and will never become your burden."

Her eyes were clear and full of determination.
